10:16, March 11, 2010 The European Parliament Wednesday proposed to collect financial transaction tax to curb excessive risk-taking of financial institutions and ensure the financial industry bears the damage of the financial crisis.
10:16，2010年3月11日 歐洲議會週三建議收取金融交易稅，去遏止過度承擔風險的金融機構，和確保金融業承擔金融危機的損害。
The parliament adopted the resolution on financial transaction tax with 536 votes in favor, asking the European Commission to develop a plan for such a tax before the G20 summit in June.
議會通過關於金融交易稅的決議，536票贊成要求歐盟委員會，在6月的20國集團首腦會議之前，為此稅項發展一套計劃。
It further suggested that if a world-wide tax could not be agreed upon, the European Union should consider adopting it unilaterally.
它進一步提議，如果一個全球性的稅收不能達成一致，歐盟應考慮單方面採用。
The resolution urged the European Council and the European Commission to look at how the tax could be used to help developing countries to combat climate change and contribute to the EU budget.
決議催促歐洲理事會和歐洲委員會去研究，稅收如何能用來幫助發展各國，對付氣候變化和促進歐盟的預算。
However, members of parliament also stressed in the resolution that the tax must not harm the banking system's ability to finance real economy investments and must not encourage the migration of capital.

Algirdas Semeta, EU commissioner for taxation, said the Commission is considering such a tax but insisted that it is best tackled at global level to prevent capital flight.
