Keynote speech by Olli Rehn at the Brussels Economic Forum
19 June 2013
"Ladies and Gentlemen, Europe is no longer in intensive care, even though our patient will need surveillance and medication still for some time to come. Our challenge today is to finally beat the crisis and see through the rebalancing and reforms in the European economies. We need to focus on the competitiveness of our economy, which leans on innovation and skills, embraces the opportunities offered by expanding world trade and boosts productive investment and access to finance, so that our SMEs and industrial base can create jobs and prosperity. It means staying the course of fiscal consolidation, and it means rebuilding our Economic and Monetary Union"

"les rôles respectifs du parlement européen et des parlements nationaux sont spécifiques et complémentaires. Dans le contexte d'une plus grande intégration des politiques budgétaires et économiques, de nouveaux mécanismes permettant d'accroître le niveau de coopération entre les parlements européen et nationaux doivent être explorés. Il appartient d’abord au Parlement européen et aux parlements nationaux de déterminer les modalités précises d'une telle coopération. Les parlements nationaux jouent un rôle clé pour assurer la légitimité de l'action des Etats membres au sein du Conseil européen. Et ils sont et resteront des acteurs centraux dans la conduite des politiques nationales budgétaires et économiques."
