"Madam President, I would like to thank my colleague, Ms Rühle, for the excellent report she has drafted. The advantages of public procurement are certainly well known, but the problems are also clear: conflicts of interest between European legislation and the goals of the Member States harm competitiveness. There is a clear dichotomy between the quality of prices and the complexity of laws and procedures.
It is crucial to look at existing good practices, specifically in Portugal, where e-procurement has been working well and has facilitated public procurement.
Effective European public procurement is an ideal way of controlling the public deficit and increasing growth. To achieve this, it needs to have a stable and predictable legal framework, to follow less bureaucratic procedures so as to attract small and medium-sized enterprises, and to defend social and environmental values. For this reason, I welcome the intention that Commissioner Barnier has presented to us here of reviewing public procurement before the end of the year, as one of the 12 priorities of the Single Market Act."@en1
