"The report contains the basic structure of the Commission’s proposal to the Council. Technological advances, now at the disposal of the Excise Movement and Control System (EMCS), mean that we need to adjust the legal framework in order to facilitate administrative cooperation between the States on the application of legislation in the field of excise duties. Now more than ever, economic operators are asking for quality of service and legal certainty. In this regard, the growing automation of the system will significantly reduce administrative burdens and streamline procedures. This must be supported by initiatives for regulatory alignment which seek to promote enhanced cooperation between Member States on VAT and direct taxation, and on fraud prevention and the fight against fraud, by means of automatic exchange protocols that allow for various, gradual options, to which the States are free to adhere. It is, however, important to highlight the lack of alternatives: Member States are unlikely to be able to create a network of bilateral agreements across Europe, capable of supporting a coherent system of information exchange and administrative cooperation. Distinguishing features of the framework proposed, which is supported by the report, are efficiency, rationalisation of resources, legal and operational coordination and increased legal certainty in tax matters: characteristic elements of an ordered and free civil framework. Therefore, I cannot but give a favourable opinion."@en1
