"The single market celebrated its 20th anniversary this year. An important aspect of completing the single market, the Services Directive, was adopted in 2006 and was supposed to be fully in place by the end of 2009. According to the Commission’s assessment, full implementation of the Services Directive would increase EU GDP by 2.6% and, in some of the countries most affected by the crisis, national GDP could increase by up to 2.2%. I do believe that such an increase would be highly desirable in order to overcome current problems. Implementing fully the single market and Services Directive would not only boost the economy and increase GDP, but would also mean considerable savings on administrative burdens and bureaucracy, amounting to up to EUR 40 billion. New fiscal discipline rules will be instrumental in ensuring fiscal stability in the future, but we also need to force Member States to finally and unconditionally implement the Services Directive and by that to complete the single market. Launching infringement procedures should be routine when handling cases where whatever EU legislation is not implemented in the foreseen time and form. As the average infringement procedure takes up to 25.5 months, I would urge the EC to speed up their processing in order to ensure a real effect in due time."@en1
