E-commerce and financial services

The European Parliament adopted the resolution by Mr Christopher HUHNE (ELDR, UK). It was approved by 396 to 63 with 27 abstentions. (Please refer to the previous text). Moreover, the Parliaemnt believes that a genuine single market in financial services, whether on or off-line, cannot be achieved without consistent and timely implementation and enforcement of legislation. Therefore, it calls on the Commission to enforce the e-commerce directive proactively and vigorously and calls on the financial service regulators in different Member States to work closely together to ensure consistent implementation and interpretation of all legislation relating to e-commerce and financial services. �
