lpv:spoken text	"I supported this proposal for a directive on package travel and assisted travel arrangements. I accidentally supported the amendment to reject the Council position at first reading and have since corrected my vote. It has become necessary to adapt the legislative framework established by the 1990 directive to online market developments, remove ambiguities and close legislative gaps given the evolution of the travel market and the ever increasing role played by the internet in how consumers research, organise and purchase travel products. This directive will increase consumer rights with stricter controls on price surcharges, a requirement to pass price reductions and compensation for non-material damages, etc., as well as covering business travellers under the directive so that SMEs and independent workers can also benefit from its protection."@en1
