Dear Member States delegations, Members of the European Parliament SimGame and Commission SimGame officials,

The Latvian Presidency wishes to thank you for all the efforts you are putting in the negotiations on the groundhandling services regulation.

It is in the interest of all parties to have a balanced regulation to define groundhandling services in the EU, and we know that all together we'll find the best agreement possible.

And most of all, don't forget that there is only one week to go!
