lpv:translated text	"Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, I have been somewhat surprised by some of the opinions expressed in this debate; for example, when Mr Gustafsson, on the left, who I regret to say is no longer here, said that the internal market had driven people into poverty and only served the interests of big business. The only thing I can say to that is that he should come to my constituency. In my constituency, there are hardly any big companies. My constituency lives off of this internal market and has a great many small and medium-sized enterprises that profit from this internal market. They would not have anywhere near the same sales opportunities in a world without the internal market. That is why I can say that, where my constituency is concerned, this opinion is grossly incorrect. Secondly, Ms Weiler mentioned in the debate that in her view, the transposition of the Payment Services Directive was also somewhat lagging in Germany. All I can say to you, Ms Weiler, is that we will do all we can – whoever is in government in Germany – to ensure that the directives passed in this House – with the democratic participation of the European colegislator, of the Council and thus of a federal German minister – are also transposed in Germany as they should be. Finally, may I come back to one point that has not received much attention in this debate so far, but which is included in Mr Busuttil’s report. If we pass more regulations – and thankfully the Commission has made some proposals in the Single Market Act as to where the instrument of the regulation should be used for legislation in the single European market – we allow the Member States scope in their transposition, but we create uniformity in the application of the law. That seems to me to be something that we should bear in mind much more in the future if we are to succeed in reducing the transposition deficit in this internal market. Commissioner – Michel – I would therefore like to remind you once again that the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats) places particular emphasis on checking very carefully where directives should be used and where regulations should be used, in order to achieve the best results in the internal market."@en1
