lpv:translated text	"− I welcomed this document because it calls on the Commission to rapidly address the issues raised by the review of the EU Savings Taxation Directive and to find a swift agreement with Switzerland and the Member States concerned. Strengthening the regulation of and transparency of company registries and registers of trust is a prerequisite for dealing with tax avoidance. The Commission should identify areas in which improvements to both EU legislation and administrative cooperation between Member States can be implemented in order to reduce tax fraud. The Member States must ensure smooth cooperation and coordination between their tax systems in order to avoid unintended non-taxation and tax evasion and fraud. Member States must also allocate adequate resources to the national services that are empowered to combat tax fraud. It is important to implement new and innovative strategies for combating VAT fraud across the EU. The Member States must review bilateral agreements currently in force between Member States and bilateral agreements between Member States and third countries, and determine how much they contribute to tax avoidance and complicate effective source taxation in certain Member States. We must ensure increased transparency and tighter control to prevent the use of tax havens, which are foreign non-cooperative jurisdictions characterised in particular by no or nominal taxes, a lack of effective exchange of information with foreign tax authorities and a lack of transparency in legislative, legal or administrative provisions."@en1
