"It is important to provide effective protection for all consumers who are buying goods on the European market. The key factor is that consumers have access to straightforward and reliable information about goods and services. The consumers who need effective protection are those who cannot make use of the information that is available. If we make the definition of a vulnerable consumer too broad, we risk reducing the protection available for people who really need special support.
Those of us with liberal views believe that the term ‘vulnerable’ should be based on individuals’ needs and not the group they belong to. Our opinions were not given a hearing during the process of drawing up the report, but we are not voting against it because it highlights an important issue which we believe needs further discussion."@en1
