lpv:translated text	"We are at the stage of the first reading of the draft directive on consumer rights, submitted by the Commission. This is focused on the promotion of cross-border trade, based on the principle that free competition is what best serves the interests of consumers. In fact, however, it gives more attention to the rights of corporations than to the rights of consumers. Moreover, the Commission advocated the total harmonisation of the established rules on consumers, without taking into account the legislation that is already in place in each country. This could lead to the loss of consumer rights in some Member States. There has been an intense discussion in Parliament’s internal market committee, and it was possible to reach a broad consensus that allowed the initial proposal tabled by the Commission to be changed substantially. However, the conditions seem to be in place to go even further in protecting consumer rights by seeking to influence the negotiations with the Council in a positive way. We therefore agree with the rapporteur’s request to return this report to Parliament’s internal market committee."@en1
