"Today’s resolution does not take the issue in the right direction. The reason this sector is experiencing difficulties or problems is not because Member States have failed to implement the first railway package properly or fully – quite the contrary. The liberalisation of the rail network has obviously led to a logic of pure profitability and to the disorganisation of the sector. In France, high-speed railway lines and journeys are given precedence over slower, regional services. Prices have increased. In many cases, however, passengers’ needs and expectations are being completely overlooked, to the extent that even the timetables are inadequate. In any event, they are being adhered to less and less. The network is being maintained accordingly and has deteriorated on many routes – on those that have not closed altogether, that is. In the United Kingdom and Belgium, this approach has been partly responsible for rail crashes. Users of the electricity sector and the postal service are already experiencing difficulties of a similar nature. You have a duty to regulate telephone rates, as there is so much abuse. Do not you think it is time to stop these charges?"@en1
