Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 7
7. Notes that the development of collaborative business models permits the optimisation ofcan, through optimising vehicle and infrastructure use, which while it contributesgive a strong boost to meeting these objectives is not, but not one that is a sufficient solution in itself; notes that the growing exploitation of user- generated data could eventually result in the added value created in the transport chain ending in the hands of digital operators, which could have an adverse effect both on the fair distribution of profits and on participation in infrastructure investment, which takes place in the real world;

Amendment 172 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 14
14. Takes the view, in view of the development of collaborative business models, that the solution is neither sector- specific regulation nor regulation aimed solely at digital platforms, and that in future the mobility system needs to be addressed as a whole; calls for the establishment of a modernised regulatory framework that fosters innovation as well as the protection of consumers and their data, and ensures healthy competition, with the same rules being applied to all operators in a given sector;
