– (NL) Mr President, first of all, I should like to say that this is not about the East against the West, because I come from the West and I am all in favour of the Services Directive. We should not lose sight of the directive’s objective, which is to break down unnecessary barriers for small and medium-sized companies, enabling them to offer their services in other countries.
- (NL) Monsieur le Président, tout d’abord, je voudrais dire qu’il ne s’agit pas de l’opposition entre l’Ouest et l’Est, car je viens de l’Ouest et que je suis tout à fait en faveur de la directive sur les services.
