lpv:spoken text	"Consumers across Europe should be able to open and run basic bank accounts. Currently, there are around 30 million people in Europe who do not have access to a bank account. Having a basic bank account is a consumer right – without a bank account citizens are excluded from carrying out essential payment transactions, such as bill payments, making cash withdrawals and receiving income or benefits. I support calls for rules to ensure that banks cannot refuse to give accounts to those with low incomes or a certain type of job. I hope that the Commission will come forward with strong proposals to protect consumers and to tackle financial exclusion."@en1
