"In November 2011, the European Commission tabled the proposal for a regulation on a consumer programme 2014-2020, intended to make consumer rights central to the single market. I am voting for this report, since it aims to stimulate consumer spending, which accounts for 56% of the EU’s GDP, thereby contributing decisively to restarting economic growth and wealth generation. I believe consumers should be protected from potential situations of commercial vulnerability, that the available information could be improved, and that safety standards guaranteeing that the market works effectively should be developed. At a time of serious budgetary difficulties, I consider it necessary to protect consumers from the financial markets: there should be more regulation of the economy and more information leading to effective financial education should be made available."@en1
