Media (BBC World Service) - Provisional agreement on roaming and netneutrality

Marietje
BBC-world-service Today, Marietje Schaake commented on BBC World Service on the provisional agreement regarding the Telecoms Single Market. Please refer to Schaake's written response to the preliminary deal on roaming and netneutrality. "The framework agreement almost concludes months of very tough negotiations in which the Council of Ministers had much lower ambitions," Schaake said. "We believe in the great benefits that an open internet brings for Europe: for internet users, for start-ups, for the digital economy. In the digital economy we have to make sure that competition is fair and innovation has a chance." Please find the audio clip here, from 18:34 to 22:47.
