lpv:translated text	"The fostering of small- and medium-sized enterprises – which comprise 99% of Europe’s companies, which are responsible for more than 100 million jobs and which, in the last eight years alone, have created 8 million jobs – is central to the Small Business Act. The current proposal exemplifies the measures taken. It allows certain companies to benefit from a reduced rate of VAT, while at the same time trying to tackle the underground labour market and call for the creation of legitimate companies. While keen to facilitate the operation of SMEs, we must not jeopardise the fundamental principles of the EU. In this case, the single market is protected as the rules in this document will apply to companies which operate only locally, thus avoiding market distortions. For all these reasons I voted in favour of this report, which I regard as a perfect example of the policies to be adopted by the European Parliament in the economic field."@en1
