". The compromise for which the House voted was a step back from the initial proposals, although attempts to achieve greater energy end-use efficiency are to be welcomed. We therefore backed the measures that sought to implement that objective effectively. The final proposal acknowledges the key role that the public sector can play in this area, for example by setting up energy efficiency pilot projects, awarding public contracts, establishing energy efficiency criteria and, in its investments, offering incentives for meeting energy efficiency improvement targets. Nevertheless, it places the accent on free competition. Accordingly, our decision to abstain from the final vote was based on our objection to Amendment 60, which as much as anything is entirely out of place. We cannot accept that, when it comes to energy efficiency, the accent is placed on market liberalisation, as in the report, which emphasises ‘equal competition and a level playing field for all energy suppliers’. We feel that this is a key sector in which the State should remain the key player."@en1
