".
A viable digital single market could improve competitiveness and stimulate economic growth in the EU. This is vital for the development of small and medium-sized enterprises in Europe. Confidence in online transactions needs to be strengthened.
At the moment, only 54% of Internet users in Europe buy or sell goods in the virtual marketplace. At the same time
commerce has a role to play in supporting cross-border trade. It is important to remove all the barriers preventing the use of
commerce. Fiscal obstacles in particular must be removed.
Discrimination must be avoided between the provision of online services and the provision of goods. For example, the same VAT rate must be applied to both printed books and
books.
My country is 10th in the world based on the ratio of connection quality to Internet access. A series of projects targeting coverage in broadband white areas is due to be launched, which will be allocated EUR 84 million in European funding."@en1
