"In an era of communication without borders, the additional charges imposed on European consumers have become completely unjustified. Citizens who take holidays in Europe must no longer return home to find mobile phone bills that break the bank. This is also quite a bonus for all those citizens living in border regions. Most conveniently, the consumer will be able to enjoy this service without having to change their number. Finally, to stop consumers getting nasty surprises, operators will be obliged to send a message to the user containing all the tariffs applicable in the country they are entering, wherever they are in the world. European citizens currently pay too much for communications. My ultimate aim is that the consumer ends up paying a fair price. We will be carrying out a study between now and 2016, analysing the behaviour of operators following this new regulation. If we find that tariffs are still too high or that the margin between national and European services is too wide, we will introduce a new amendment procedure. For too long, real competition, which is beneficial to consumers, has been conspicuously absent. Parliament is coming to the rescue."@en1
