Uncoordinated measures taken by Member States individually can fragment the Single Market and distort competition, hampering the development of new digital solutions and the Union's competitiveness as a whole. This is why it is necessary to adopt a harmonised approach on an interim solution that will tackle this issue in a targeted way until a comprehensive solution is in place. The interim solution should be temporarily restricted in order to avoid that it inadvertently becoming permanent. Therefore, a sunset clause should be introduced that would result in this Directive automatically expiring upon the establishment of a comprehensive solution, preferably on an international level.

PPE: amendment 2 By 31 December 2020, if no comprehensive solution has been agreed, the Commission should consider a proposal based on Article 116 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, whereby the European Parliament and the Council act in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure. This is essential to come to an agreement without delay to avoid the multiplication of unilateral national digital taxes by Member States.

This objective cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States acting individually because digital businesses are able to operate cross-border without having any or having only a small physical presence in a jurisdiction and rules are therefore needed to ensure that they pay taxes in the jurisdictions where they make profits. Given this cross-border dimension an initiative at Union level adds value in comparison with what a multitude of national measures could attain. A common initiative across the internal market is required to ensure a harmonised application of the rules on a significant digital presence within the Union. Unilateral and divergent approaches by each Member State could be ineffective and fragment the Single Market by creating national policy clashes, distortions and tax obstacles for businesses in the Union. Hence, specific attention should be paid to ensuring that the Union approach is fair and not discriminatory against any particular Member State. Since the objectives of this Directive can be better achieved at Union level, the Union may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty on European Union. In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Directive does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve those objectives. P8_PV-PROV(2018)12-13(VOT)_EN.docx 8 PE 632.675
Third part While taxation policy is a national competence, Article 115 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union clearly stipulates that the Council should, acting unanimously in accordance with a special legislative procedure and after consulting the European Parliament and the Economic and Social Committee, issue directives for the approximation of such taxation laws, regulations or administrative provisions of the Member States as directly affect the establishment or functioning of the internal market. This Directive does not imply a harmonisation of corporate tax rates in the Union and, therefore, it does not restrict Member States' capability to set fair corporate tax rates applicable to digital services' revenues on their own territory. 8.
