"A large number of us, if not all, maintain that the internal market is the political and economic mainstay of the European Union, and thus we cannot permit that the funds allocated for next year to this crucial sector, be reduced by more than a third: from 12 million euros to 7.66 million.
This reduction goes against all that which we have discussed here in the past months. We also have to make sure that one of the most positive and visible features in this sector, that is, consumer protection, be given the necessary resources to be able to operate. It is not possible that with a much greater European Union with many more consumers whose rights we have to defend, the funds allocated to this sector will be even less than those for 2004. We also have to learn from what happened a few years ago, we have to see that our consumers will be more informed and better prepared so that abuses are reduced to a minimum when the new Member States introduce the euro.
These are the proposals which my friends in the Socialist Group in the European Parliament and in the Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection agree about."@en1
