lpv:translated text	"Directive 2009/47/EC permits the optional application (for Member States) of a reduced rate for printed cultural publications (books, newspapers, periodicals and other publications). Directive 2009/47/EC (amended) extended, among other things, the possibility of applying reduced rates to publications on other physical media (DVDs, CDs, etc.) as well. Under the directive, however, reduced VAT may not be applied to publications purchased electronically (via downloading). The object of the motion for a resolution that we are discussing today in the House is to ask the Commission what its intentions are regarding possible legislative initiatives to extend the option of applying reduced VAT to electronic publications, which are currently discriminated against compared to printed publications. My opinion on this issue is that we should also consider a reduction for texts that can be purchased on the Internet and which are therefore increasingly widely available on it. In calling for discrimination of this kind to be eliminated, we demand greater dissemination of culture, especially for young people who, as we know, are increasingly using electronic media to obtain information."@en1
