Hence, for example, in the field of information policy, if we apply the general principle laid down in paragraphs 17, 28 and 62 (reduction of activities not providing any added value), I believe that serious changes must be made! Every day we receive information brochures written by ‘specialists’. I am convinced that, in order to inspire confidence amongst the European citizens, it would be better to inform them by means of the media that normally reaches them on the ground than to design expensive brochures that they will not read and that they will not understand.
Je suis convaincu que, pour inspirer confiance aux citoyens européens, il vaut mieux les informer par les médias qui les touchent habituellement là où ils sont, plutôt que de concevoir des brochures coûteuses qu’ils ne liront pas ou qu’ils ne comprendront pas.
