"I voted for the resolution on recommendations to the Commission on Access to Basic Banking Services. I voted in favour of a basic payment account being effective, straightforward to open and providing a specified range of basic services. I voted for efficient measures to be introduced for effective supervision and settlement of conflicts, as well as for facilitating access to such an account for consumers with no fixed address. I think that the legislation on anti-money laundering and anti-terrorist financing should be applied in a balanced manner and should never be used as an unfounded pretext for rejecting commercially less attractive consumers. In addition, the Commission should explore the need for consumers to have a link to the Member State in order to be eligible for a basic payment account. We call on the Commission to submit a detailed assessment of the state of play in all Member States by September 2012, and to table, by January 2013, on the basis of Article 114 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, a proposal for a directive ensuring access to basic payment services to all consumers legally residing in the EU."@en1
