"Madam President, it is clear that if the European Union wishes to emerge from the crisis, it should enhance the competitiveness of its small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which are responsible for the creation of 85 % of all new jobs in the EU.
It is therefore necessary to harmonise national industrial polices to a greater degree, while it is also essential to achieve another objective: internationalisation of SMEs. Only 25 % of SMEs in the European Union have been internationally active within the single market. I therefore agree with the actions proposed by the Commission aimed at encouraging the process of internationalisation and the need expressed by the rapporteur for provision of specific information about priority markets together with details of the various support services available.
In conclusion, I would underline the need for greater coordination of the various initiatives at EU level. At a time of rationalisation of public spending, we cannot afford to duplicate efforts or policies, risking the creation of pointless administrative and bureaucratic burdens."@en1
