"Mr President, the June List supports the proposal concerning the internal market’s four freedoms. The free movement of capital is fundamental to an efficient internal market. If all this is to operate satisfactorily, common regulations are required. These must be designed simply and must not undermine the possibility of institutional competition between the Member States. It is a good thing that the deadlines in this report should be extended, as this will facilitate the preparations in the run-up to the regulations’ entering into force. We shall therefore vote in favour of the report.
Parliament’s proposed changes state, however, that the European Parliament has requested that Parliament and the Council be given an equal role in supervising the way in which the Commission exercises its powers to implement the changes. Parliament is again trying to increase its own power at the expense of the Member States. The Commission must not be some kind of federal government, and it should in the first place be supervised by the Member States. As it is important that an acceptable compromise be reached with the Council, it is unfortunate that Parliament should have chosen in this way to put an intra-institutional power struggle into the mix. We shall therefore vote against Amendments 1, 2, 4 and 11."@en1
