"Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, at a time when European citizens need, more than ever, a Europe showing solidarity and ambition, a social yet dynamic Europe, I would like to pay tribute here to Mr Barnier’s approach. This approach, the Single Market Act, is a comprehensive, overall approach to the single market, a collective approach. You have been able, Mr Barnier, to bring around a discussion table a number of European Commissioners interested in this whole document and in an open approach, since you are coming here today to open the debate on the document, so that each and every one of us can enhance it with our own thoughts; a ‘citizen’ approach, since you wish to put the citizen back at the heart of the internal market, likewise businesses, and I think that this will actually be the major challenge in the months and years to come. What is more, this approach is policy based, and I think that Europe, above anything else, needs more policy, and this is certainly also one of our Parliament’s responsibilities. Regarding the content, Mr Barnier, I would like to focus on the point about services of general interest. Like you, I think that we need legal certainty more than we need a legislative framework. In the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs’ opinion, which I am due to present, I talk about a road map for the organising authorities; you talk about a toolbox. We are already coming together, even though, on a semantic level, we will both have to take one step. I think we will need to work specifically on this toolbox, which will be a real challenge, and also on transparency for all those using and seeking to provide services of general interest."@en1
