"Mr President, Ms Ford’s question is, of course, along exactly the lines that I think we should be following here. Like you, Ms Ford, I believe that we should be focusing on greater segmentation of the concept of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) because it does not help us if we are constantly discussing subsidies for SMEs, while at the same time the term covers more than 90% of all companies. This will ultimately not be possible. I also believe that SMEs have very different interests. The very small companies, such as snack bars and similar businesses, are mainly interested in having very simple legislation involving very little red tape. However, there are also medium-sized companies, for example, in my constituency, which are so large that they have a particular interest in financing. We need to work together, Ms Ford, to set the right priorities."@en1
