lpv:spoken text	"Overall this report is quite progressive and, as far as I can see, should be considered a success and a brilliant follow-up to the work of the TAXE 1 Committee. The Labour Party and our sister parties across Europe have been fighting for tax justice for years and this report represents a positive step. Following the Panama Papers and the LuxLeaks before that, it is increasingly clear that tax evasion and aggressive tax avoidance have grown to unthinkable levels. This has become an endemic cross-border problem, which requires cross-border actions and solutions. While the European Commission has taken positive steps to tackle this problem, much more needs to be done and this ambitious report gives a good indication of what the way forward might look like."@en1
