"The Commission has tackled an issue that has historically been a cornerstone of European integration and the report acknowledges that importance. I therefore voted in favour and I congratulate Ms Comi for effectively summing up such a sensitive issue. I should point out the urgency of bringing the standardisation times of the European institutions into line with those of industry and, in a broader sense, of society. Innovation in this field, resulting from agreements within sectors including through forums, is certainly a sign of life, but this activity cannot be left to an entirely private process: without an institutional stimulus, it would be difficult to overcome technical and regulatory obstacles and market fragmentation. Moreover, a rather disorganised network of standards arising from trade relations, negotiated beyond the sphere of action of the European standardisation organisations (ESOs), could cause market distortions. The impetus for standardisation naturally comes from society and from the market and meets requirements in terms of development, reduced costs for businesses, and increased value of products and services, which are very clear to consumers. It would be rather strange if the European institutions were to marginalise themselves in this area."@en1
