"I fully support the approach for more simplification, more clarity and more proportionality in the future revision of the State-aid package on services of general economic interest (SGEIs). Any future review of EU State aid rules on SGEIs should ensure that we are not dogmatic in our approach in order to reflect and be aligned with the present economic problems and social realities of Member States. The introduction of a more practical and pragmatic approach towards State aid rules in the sector could potentially help to contain the re-emergence of protectionist attitudes at Member State level, which act as a direct threat to the completion of the single market. That is why it is important to watch out for protectionist policies. Last but not least, I believe that a high standard of social services is essential to achieving the fundamental objectives of the European Union. Therefore, a future framework establishing a level playing field, common principles and conditions for the operation of SGEIs, while respecting the subsidiary principle between the Member States, would serve as minimum guidelines for high-quality standards, accessibility and affordability of services for the benefit of all EU citizens."@en1
