lpv:translated text	"Allow me perhaps to correct the Commissioner on one point: Parliament would probably have wanted to see a greater degree of harmonisation where the current directive is concerned. I have, however, a question for those of you responsible for the internal market. You said that existing differences in levy systems were of no significance. I believe that we need to investigate this area specifically with the internal market in mind. Are the differences in the levy systems between the countries of Europe of any significance? Do they impede the internal market and lead to distortion? I believe that our examination of the trend we have in Europe should start specifically from the perspective of a functioning internal market. I believe it would be important to obtain an account of the ways in which fair compensation or fair remuneration have developed. What are the facts of the case? Above all, I wish, however, to say to you, as Commissioner with responsibility for the internal market, that I believe that the differences in levies affect consumer behaviour and create unequal conditions of competition."@en1
