"The ECR Group supports much of the content in this report, such as the recognition of the importance of rightholders and improving access to digital content. However we are cautious on raising the issue of VAT into this particular text, in terms of offering the same reduced VAT rates for online and offline content. This forms part of a much wider debate that must be duly considered – we support a legal framework that encourages entrepreneurship in the digital environment, but need to consider and understand the direct effects on digital goods which are easier to source across borders than physical goods. We also disagree with the notion that those organisations benefiting financially from European Film should by default reinvest the proceeds into the making of European Films. If they generate profit on the film rights they have legally obtained (such as by purchasing them), then how they distribute this revenue is their decision. The ECR Group supported this report but we wish to put on record our reservations regarding certain issues contained within it, such as those outlined above."@en1
