We - he has found - confide that the Member States will assure a corrected application of the rules on the transparency and the consultation of the private investor in the ports. From our point of view such norms constitute bonds instruments in order to guarantee a parity of conditions, in order to avoid the risks of distortion of the competition and in order to avoid indefensible investments in the ports" -

The coherence between the norms applicable to the ports - it has emphasized the general secretary of Feport - will be essential".
Feport has expressed a thanks to the reporter of the legislative proposal on the ports, Knut Fleckenstein, and to its team for the profuse engagement to go to a definition of the regulations and above all in order to have adopted a real consulenziale approach and in order to have multiplied the efforts in order to discuss with all the parts interested to the aim to reach a good compromise.
