"Mr President, Commissioner, this report by Peter Simon is a very balanced one. It advocates making use of services of general economic interest (SGEIs), within the framework of the Union’s shared values, as promoters of rights and of economic, social and territorial cohesion.
There is indeed a legislative structure, but this is still open to a great deal of legal uncertainty, and the principle of subsidiarity must be defended.
Some very positive features of this report are the clear distinction between economic and non-economic activities, the reference to SGEIs at the local and regional level which do not affect competition in the internal market, the reference to project bonds and to the
rules for situations in which SGEIs operate on a limited local scale, and I must also mention the status of SGEI providers, which is varied enough to include associations, foundations, community and voluntary organisations, NGOs and social enterprises.
Finally, it may be taken as read that the criterion for the quality and efficiency of SGEIs must be tied to the principle of subsidiarity."@en1
