"The Spanish Government has, on behalf of the self-governing area of the Canary Islands, requested an extension of the current regime, which provides for a suspension of tariffs on imports of certain industrial products. These measures have the explicit aim of boosting the competitiveness of local businesses, and thereby ensuring more stable employment on the islands. I have not supported the report because I am against the establishment of tariff exemptions in the EU. Competitiveness and employment can be boosted through the European Regional Development Fund and the European Social Fund. I would like to say at the same time that suspension of tariffs leads to loss of revenue from the EU’s own resources, which the European Parliament, contrary to this, is trying to increase through proposals for various taxes on financial transactions and the like."@en1
