We will revise the #LatePayment Directive.
Late payments have increased markedly, threating the survival of our SMEs.
Paying on time is more important than ever when SMEs are at risk of bankruptcy due to rapidly increasing prices for energy and raw materials.

Europe’s 25 million #SMEs employ 100 million people.
They are the backbone of our industry & economy.
For Europe to recover, SMEs need to recover.
That is why we will present an « SME Relief Package », facilitate tax filings, and combat late payments.

RT @LuciaCaudet: In modernising the Stability Pact we must overcome clichés, ready-made ideas and easy divisions pitting the good vs the bad, the frugals vs the profligates.
If we look at the real whole picture of the debt (financial, defence, carbon), the notion of virtue is very subjective.

RT @LuciaCaudet: "We have looked closely at what our like-minded partners have put in place, incl the US Defence Production and Inflation Reduction Acts, although we haven't emulated these word-for-word, given the EU's openness and commitment to international trade."

Energy. Food. Health. Military. Cyber.
In all these areas, dependencies are being used as a weapon against us.
We need secure and sustainable supply chains.
