"The Single Market Act is good news for the internal market, and so also for businesses, consumers and citizens. I am pleased that the Commission has presented such an ambitious programme for completing construction of the common market. During yesterday’s Internal Market Forum, at which the Commissioner made the first presentation of a programme of 50 proposals, a variety of opinions were expressed about the act. Among them, the prevailing opinion concerned the need for an holistic vision of building the common market to help finish this project, which was begun over 20 years ago. It is important to create a truly single, citizen-friendly market, where people will not experience problems with opening bank accounts, registering cars, having their qualifications recognised, transferring pension rights or ordering goods and services from other Member States using the Internet.
For me, however, achieving free movement of services remains a priority, and this, in turn, requires further work on implementation of the Services Directive. I must, however, agree with the statement made yesterday by Professor Mario Monti. He said we have known for a long time about many of the initiatives contained in the Single Market Act, so they are neither new problems nor new solutions. Therefore, I appeal to the European Commission, the Member States and fellow Members of the European Parliament to speed up the process and implement legislation which is essential for citizens, consumers and businesses."@en1
