By slim majority MEPs in the Parliament's Transport Committee today adopted the Commission's 'better airport package' proposal that seeks to increase the number of ground handling companies at airports.
GUE/NGL MEP Sabine Wills commented: "Several competing firms providing services will do nothing to enhance safety conditions. On the contrary wages and conditions only worsen."
