"Mr President, economic growth and the establishment of new undertakings and jobs is unthinkable without access to a stable and fast Internet connection. Without the Internet, it is difficult to imagine how public administration, citizens’ services and retail trade could be made more efficient. I voted ‘yes’ today, and I am pleased that Parliament has adopted a resolution on an open Internet and net neutrality. On account of the Internet’s central role in all aspects of society, it has become an important political matter.
It is also a political matter to ensure that all citizens have equal access to the Internet. We are opposed to creating an A team and a B team where citizens are concerned. We are also opposed to political decision makers deciding how the content should be prioritised. So far, so good, but we must also recognise the fact that we are facing some enormous challenges when it comes to creating adequate infrastructure, particularly with regard to mobile platforms. We are finding it difficult to expand the capacity quickly enough to cope with the explosive growth among citizens. This is therefore something that we must prioritise in future."@en1
