"The trade in counterfeit goods, which infringes intellectual property rights, is causing losses to European companies amounting to around EUR 250 billion. It is therefore necessary to strengthen the checks by customs authorities on the nature of goods transiting the European Union in order to protect both consumers and producers. Counterfeit goods threaten the health of consumers and also damage their purchasing capacities. Reinforced regulation on this issue is a step towards policies to improve our commercial potential and the quality of our products. However, I am bound to share with you one observation. I would argue, in fact, that, while the introduction of a reinforced system of checks is necessary, it should not constitute a bureaucratic obstacle; it would be completely contradictory were it to damage the competitiveness or schedules of our commercial operators."@en1
