lpv:translated text	"Madam President, the gaming market in Europe is cross-border in nature. Therefore, it needs and is awaiting a European response. This Green Paper is very welcome and important, but the Commission must now go further and take action. The European Parliament’s demands that we are voting on today are very clear. First and foremost, the Commission is, and must act as, the Guardian of the Treaties. The Commission must take action against Member States that do not have a coherent gaming policy and that exclude trustworthy, lawful providers from other countries. Secondly, we need European rules for responsible gaming. Gambling addition is a major problem in Europe, but sometimes it almost seems as if the finance ministers’ dependency on gaming revenue is even greater. We must therefore ensure that the EU guarantees a good level of protection for all consumers who gamble across borders. The Member States may not like it, but consumers will. The protection must then go with them. The Commission must demonstrate that it is on the side of the consumers – rather than seeking to obtain revenue from gaming."@en1
