The European Union is currently experiencing its worst economic crisis since it was established. Regrettably, we have to say that in certain cases this crisis threatens the very foundations of the European economy. I would like to emphasise, however, that the single market is still the best tool we have available to revive economic growth in Member State economies, and therefore it is extremely important that we treat each and every issue associated with the single market as a priority. I welcome the efforts of the European Commission in this area so far, but I feel that more commitment is needed in future to implementing European legislation. I am delighted that many mechanisms have been developed in recent years to help the single market grow, and to measure the contributions of individual Member States towards achieving this objective. The Internal Market Scoreboard is one such mechanism, which encourages Member States to improve the quality and speed of transposing internal market directives. The question is, then, what further action is required. I personally vote for more decisive, yet realistic, transposition and implementation deadlines. Therefore we must strive to achieve the lowest transposition deficit, the shortest transposition delays and the highest quality of transposition. The report by Ms Bastos highlights the concerns of our citizens and enterprises; now it is our responsibility to react to this and remedy the problems as soon as possible. I voted in favour of the report."@en1
