"The European Commission Green Paper on the modernisation of EU public procurement policy, entitled ‘Towards a more efficient European market’, argues that public contracts should play a key role in the Europe 2020 strategy and ensure public funds are used as efficiently as possible. I am voting for this report because I believe the European public procurement market should remain open throughout the EU, contribute to Europe’s new challenges, promote competition, and stimulate business investment. I would argue that the Member States should make extra effort to increase the number of transactions through e-public procurement. I consider it important to adopt measures to prevent and combat corruption, and that certain legal concepts remain ambiguous and need to be clarified. The rules should be simplified so as to make public procurement procedures more flexible. I also believe the criterion of price should not be the most important factor in awarding contracts, with the criterion of the most economically beneficial proposal in economic, social and environmental terms being adopted. I therefore intend to ensure better use of public funds and investments with a high long-term return for new generations."@en1
