<s>[INST] The next text is a question of a member of the European parliament:"The freedom to run a business in the place of one's choosing is guaranteed by the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. Regrettably, limitations on this freedom are still to be found in the internal market, often taking the form of indirect discrimination. An example of this would be the introduction of taxes that discriminate against foreign enterprises. Such practices are at odds with the concept of the internal market and in outright violation of the Treaty provisions prohibiting the raising of fiscal barriers. It is particularly important to take immediate action in such situations, as foreign enterprises affected by this form of discrimination are obliged to bear significant costs which often result in them closing down their operations in the area concerned. This practice de facto prevents businesses from enjoying the freedom to operate in the place of their choosing.    With reference to the Commission's answer of 15March2011 to a parliamentary question regarding the introduction of a crisis tax in Hungary in the telecommunications, energy and retail sectors, Ishould like to put the following questions:      1.  Does the Commission consider that the aforementioned tax could constitute a fiscal barrier restricting the freedom of establishment?      2.  The Commission has asked the Hungarian Government to submit its views on this matter. What stage has been reached in the process of determining whether this tax complies with EClaw, and when does the Commission intend to adopt a position on the matter?"
