"Mr President, I am very much in favour. Mrs Randzio-Plath was right to correct her group’s list. We tabled Amendment No 22 so as to ensure that the trial involving reduced VAT rates for highly labour-intensive services could continue beyond 31 December of this year. That is what the reporter wants and that is what we all want.
The oral amendment is purely editorial in nature. Instead of stipulating that the date of 31 December is replaced by the date referred to in Article 2 of the new directive – which concerns the date of entry into force of that new directive – we have worded it more clearly, so that 31 December 2003 is replaced by the date of entry into force of the new directive.
It is therefore the same thing, but our legal experts thought that it was better to word it in this way. Consequently, all those who want to indicate that it should be possible for the reduced VAT rates to be retained, if the state so wishes, should vote in favour of our amendment, as corrected."@en1
