Trans-European networks in the telecommunications domain (declaration of European interest)

The Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs unanimously adopted the report by Mr Joaquin Sisó Cruellas (PPE, E) on a proposal for a regulation introducing a declaration of European interest to facilitate the establishment of trans-European networks in the telecommunications domain, a concept that had been supported by the EP in the past. Amendments were adopted relating, inter alia, to a specified period within which the Member States could make their observations, a reference to economic and social cohesion and a reference to environmental impact (which had to be acceptable). �
