lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, firstly I would like to congratulate the Commission on its initiative, as I believe that it has opted for the right approach on this issue. We all know that the principle of mutual recognition through the use of standardisation is an extremely efficient and competitive method, and this is of course particularly true for spare parts. In all countries where the CE mark is used or must be used, the consumer is provided with a guarantee that legal requirements have been complied with. However, it then becomes crucial that testing agencies, which check whether the necessary requirements have in fact been complied with, are certified. Voluntary test marks, such as the GS (‘Safety Tested’) mark in Germany, would be a good idea, although the Commission has expressed widely differing opinions on this issue. In such cases a separate market exists where the consumer has an additional test mark, and can therefore see that an authorised testing agency has addressed the issue. The test mark allows the consumer to see that he can buy a very safe product. I would be interested to hear the Commission’s opinion on this matter."@en1
