Recital 6 a (new)
(6a) The digitalisation of Europe’s economy is one of the mainstays of its reconstruction. This means that Europe must make itself an attractive place for digital companies to conduct their economic and commercial activities, establish themselves and expand, because this will help generate wealth, create jobs and achieve Europe’s objective of digitalisation of its business fabric and administration. This is why the European Union must be sure to introduce fair and appropriate rules which facilitate a free market and free competition between digital platforms, shunning confiscatory tax models and bureaucratic hurdles that make it more expensive and more difficult for companies to operate.
Amendment 53 #
(10) Given the wide use of digital platforms in performing commercial activities, both by individuals and entities, it is crucial to ensure that the information is reportable regardless of the legal nature of the seller. Nevertheless, an exception should be provided for governmental entities, which should not be captured by the reporting obligation, provided this is justifiable on account of it being sensitive information, prior knowledge of which could affect the market and operators on the market.
