".
I broadly share the rapporteur’s concerns about the need to adapt companies’ obligations to file information to the digital age. I believe that the greater speed and transparency resulting from these measures will provide greater certainty and security for companies’ corporate life and for commercial practices, benefiting all those involved, the interested parties in general and, ultimately, end consumers themselves.
In fact, there is an entire range of documents and information detailing the true corporate situation of companies that is not always made available in time either to their shareholders or to their trading partners. This could lead to clearly unnecessary damage, arising solely from an ignorance of the facts which, in addition to the requirement formally to publish such information, would require genuine and effective publicity. In a borderless area, this will only be possible by using the most up-to-date techniques and information technologies and the voluntary publishing of information in other languages.
The provision that companies’ websites should also contain the minimum particulars laid down in Article 4 of Directive 68/151/EEC is also important.
This directive would also need to be updated with regard to the types of company it covers and with regard to its references to accounting requirements.
I therefore voted in favour of the report."@en1
