lpv:translated text	". − I voted for this proposal because the variety of payments has been steadily growing in both the EU and the rest of the world. While new ways of using mobile and internet payments seem to emerge quickly and interest both consumers and businesses, even the card payment market is still far away from its full potential and efficiency. The Commission has published a Green Paper on an integrated European market for card, internet and mobile payments where it points out several barriers which prevent the European payment market from working as efficiently and openly as possible. There is a need to acknowledge the benefits of promoting and increasing the card, internet and mobile payments in order to offer consumers and businesses an opportunity to have access to more convenient, secure, fast, variable, flexible and cost-effective payment methods. Furthermore, more extensive use of the above-mentioned payment methods is also a key issue if e-commerce is to continue its rapid development and its growing contribution to Member States’ GDPs. Therefore, the gap between domestic and cross-border payments needs to be removed, while the goal in integrating card payment markets should be making cross-border payments as convenient as payments at national level. The internet payments market, however, is strongly at an evolutionary stage and should not be too strongly regulated, because this could hinder the natural development and innovation in the field."@en1
