(3a) The public debate on summer-time arrangements is not new and since the introduction of the summer-time several initiatives were meant to discontinue the practice. Some Member States held national consultations and a majority of businesses and stakeholders have supported a discontinuation of the practice. The consultation initiated by the European Commission has led to the same conclusion.

(5a) For the purpose of safeguarding the internal market and ensuring the benefits of being European Union citizens, a harmonised implementation of this Directive and a coordinated and cooperative approach should be a the primary goal of the Member States. To that regard they should coordinate in advance their decision on the envisaged standard times via the establishment of a coordination mechanism in order to avoid that Member States opt for different standard times within a time zone.
