lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, Commissioner, Mr Schlyter rightly deserves our congratulations for his excellent report, which I fully support. Arguably the most important aspect of this legislative proposal is that the story of PFOS is unfortunately one of shame for EU and international consumer protection, and one that should never be allowed to be repeated. Although PFOS were well known to be persistent bioaccumulative toxic compounds, they were extensively used in numerous consumer products and in various industrial applications for decades. This has resulted in the irreversible contamination of the environment and of both animals and humans. Let us all hope that the directive under consideration here will be fully implemented as soon as possible, but let us at the same time remember that appropriate legislation will also be needed to deal with the hundreds of other perfluorinated compounds which are also very toxic and which today are more or less freely allowed to poison us and will continue to do so in the foreseeable future."@en⁴

Hr. Schlyter fortjener virkelig vores lykønskninger for denne udmærkede betænkning, som jeg fuldt ud støtter. Det nok vigtigste aspekt af dette lovgivningsforslag er det faktum, at PFOS' historie desværre bringer skam over EU og den internationale forbrugerbeskyttelse, og at denne historie aldrig må gentages. Skønt PFOS notorisk er persistente, bioakkumulerende og giftige stoffer, har de i årtier været brugt i stort omfang i adskillige forbrugsvarer og i forskellige industrielle applikationer. Det har resulteret i en irreversibel forurening af miljøet samt af både dyr og mennesker. Lad os alle håbe, at dette direktiv hurtigst muligt bliver gennemført fuldt ud, men lad os samtidig huske på, at der også er brug for en relevant lovgivning for de hundredvis af andre perfluorforbindelser, som også er meget giftige, og som i dag mere eller mindre frit får lov til at forgifte os, og som fortsat vil gøre det i den nærmeste fremtid."@da² "Herr Präsident, Herr Kommissar! Herr Schlyter hat es wirklich verdient, dass wir ihn zu diesem hervorragenden Bericht, den ich uneingeschränkt befürworte, beglückwünschen. Der wohl wichtigste Aspekt dieses Gesetzesvorschlags ist die Erkenntnis, dass die Geschichte der PFOS für die EU und den internationalen Verbraucherschutz leider alles andere als glorreich verlaufen ist und sich so nie mehr wiederholen darf. Obwohl allgemein bekannt war, dass PFOS persistente, bioakkumulierbare und giftige Verbindungen sind, wurden sie jahrzehntelang bei zahlreichen Konsumgütern und verschiedenen industriellen Anwendungen eingesetzt. Dies hat zu einer irreversiblen Kontaminierung der Umwelt wie auch von Tier und Mensch geführt. Hoffen wir also alle, dass die hier vorliegende Richtlinie so bald wie möglich uneingeschränkt umgesetzt wird, aber zugleich dürfen wir nicht vergessen, dass auch entsprechende Rechtsvorschriften erforderlich sein werden, die sich mit den mehreren hundert weiteren perfluorierten Verbindungen befassen, die ebenfalls sehr giftig sind und uns heutzutage mehr oder weniger leicht vergiften können und dies auch auf absehbare Zeit weiterhin tun werden."@de⁹ "Κύριε Πρόεδρε, κύριε Επίτροπε, ο κ. Schlyter αξίζει τα συγχαρητήριά μας για την εξαιρετική έκθεσή του, την οποία υποστηρίζω πλήρως. Η πιο σημαντική ίσως πτυχή αυτής της νομοθετικής πρότασης είναι ότι η ιστορία των PFOS είναι, δυστυχώς, μια ιστορία ντροπής για την ΕΕ και τη διεθνή προστασία των καταναλωτών και μια ιστορία η οποία δεν θα πρέπει ποτέ να επιτρέψουμε να επαναληφθεί. Παρότι τα PFOS ήταν γνωστές ανθεκτικές βιοσυσσωρευτικές ουσίες, χρησιμοποιήθηκαν εκτενώς σε πολυάριθμα καταναλωτικά προϊόντα και σε ποικίλες βιομηχανικές εφαρμογές επί δεκαετίες. Αυτό είχε ως αποτέλεσμα τη μη αναστρέψιμη μόλυνση του περιβάλλοντος αλλά και των ζώων και του ανθρώπου. Ας ελπίσουμε όλοι ότι η υπό εξέταση οδηγία θα εφαρμοστεί πλήρως το συντομότερο δυνατόν, αλλά ας θυμόμαστε ταυτόχρονα ότι θα χρειαστεί επίσης κατάλληλη νομοθεσία για την αντιμετώπιση εκατοντάδων άλλων υπερφθοριωμένων ουσιών που και αυτές είναι πολύ τοξικές και που σήμερα επιτρέπονται κατά το μάλλον ή ήττον ελεύθερα για να μας δηλητηριάζουν και θα εξακολουθήσουν να το κάνουν στο άμεσο μέλλον."@el¹⁰ "Señor Presidente, señor Comisario, el señor Schlyter merece nuestra felicitación por su excelente informe, que apoyo plenamente. Podemos decir que el aspecto más importante de esta propuesta legislativa es que la historia del PFOS ha sido una vergüenza lamentable para la UE y para la protección internacional del consumidor, que no debemos permitir que se repita nunca. Aunque se sabía perfectamente que los PFOS eran compuestos tóxicos persistentes y bioacumulativos, se utilizaron ampliamente en numerosos productos de consumo y en distintas aplicaciones industriales durante décadas. Eso ha producido una contaminación irreversible del medio ambiente y tanto de animales como de seres humanos. Esperemos que la directiva que estamos debatiendo hoy aquí sea debidamente incorporada a las legislaciones nacionales pertinentes lo antes posible, pero recordemos al mismo tiempo que se necesitará también la legislación adecuada para los cientos de otros compuestos perfluorados que son también muy tóxicos y que dejamos que hoy nos intoxiquen más o menos libremente y sigan haciéndolo en un futuro previsible."@es²⁰ "Mr President, Commissioner, Mr Schlyter rightly deserves our congratulations for his excellent report, which I fully support.

Kyseisen lainsäädäntöehdotuksen tärkein näkökohta on otaksuttavasti se, että PFOS-tarina on EU:n ja kansainvälisen kuluttajansuojan häpeä, joka ei saa toistua enää milloinkaan. Vaikka PFOS-yhdisteet tiedettiin erittäin hitaasti hajoaviksi, voimakkaasti biokertyviksi myrkky-yhdisteiksi, niitä käytettiin vuosikymmenten ajan laajalti lukuisissa kulutustavaroissa ja useissa teollisissa sovelluksissa. Tämä käyttö on johtanut ympäristön peruuttamattomaan saastumiseen ja niin ihmisten kuin eläintenkin myrkyttymiseen. Toivokaamme, että käsiteltävänä oleva direktiivi pannaan mahdollisimman pian täytäntöön täysimääräisenä. Älkäämme kuitenkaan unohtako, että myös satojen muiden erittäin myrkyllisten perfluorattujen yhdisteiden alalla kaivataan asianmukaista lainsäädäntöä, sillä nykyisellään kyseisten yhdisteiden myrkyllisyys vaikuttaa meihin ja tekee niin lähitulevaisuudessakin."@fi⁷ "Monsieur le Président, Monsieur le Commissaire, M. Schlyter mérite toutes nos félicitations pour son excellent rapport, que je soutiens pleinement. L’aspect fondamental de cette proposition législative est sans doute que la question des SPFO est malheureusement une honte pour la protection des consommateurs sur le plan communautaire et international et une affaire qui ne devrait jamais pouvoir se reproduire. Bien que l’on sût que les SPFO étaient des composés persistants, bioaccumulatifs et toxiques, ils ont été largement utilisés durant des décennies dans de nombreux produits de consommation et dans diverses applications industrielles. Cela a donné lieu à la pollution irréversible de l’environnement et à la contamination tant des animaux que des êtres humains. Espérons que la directive dont nous débattons ici sera totalement mise en œuvre dès que possible, mais, en même temps, rappelons-nous qu’une législation appropriée s’avérera nécessaire pour des centaines d’autres composés perfluorés qui sont également très toxiques et que nous laissons aujourd’hui plus ou moins librement nous empoisonner, comme nous continuerons de le faire dans un avenir prévisible."@fr⁸ "Mr President, Commissioner, Mr Schlyter rightly deserves our congratulations for his excellent report, which I fully support.

Probabilmente l’aspetto più importante di questa proposta legislativa è che la storia dei PFOS è purtroppo disonorevole per l’UE e la protezione internazionale dei consumatori e dobbiamo fare assolutamente in modo che non abbia mai a ripetersi. Benché fosse risaputo che i PFOS sono composti persistenti, bioaccumulativi e tossici, per decenni sono stati abbondantemente impiegati in diversi prodotti al consumo e in varie applicazioni industriali. Ne è scaturito un inquinamento irreversibile dell’ambiente e degli esseri umani e degli animali indistintamente. Auguriamoci tutti che la direttiva in esame sia pienamente applicata il più presto possibile, ma al contempo ricordiamo anche che occorreranno normative appropriate per disciplinare le centinaia di altri composti perfluorinati che sono a loro volta molto tossici e che oggi sono più o meno liberi di avvelenarci e continueranno a farlo nel prossimo futuro."@it¹² "Mr President, Commissioner, Mr Schlyter rightly deserves our congratulations for his excellent report, which I fully support.

Het belangrijkste aspect van dit wetgevingsvoorstel is waarschijnlijk dat het verhaal van PFOS helaas een schande voor de EU en de internationale consumentenbescherming is en dat de beschreven gang van zaken nooit meer mag worden toegestaan. Hoewel men heel goed wist dat PFOS persistente bioaccumulerende toxische verbindingen vormden, werden zij tientallen jaren op grote schaal gebruikt in talrijke consumentenproducten en diverse industriële toepassingen. Dit heeft geleid tot een onomkeerbare verontreiniging van het milieu en besmetting van zowel dieren als mensen. Laten we allemaal hopen dat de richtlijn die we hier bespreken, zo snel mogelijk volledig zal worden uitgevoerd. Laten we daarbij echter bedenken dat er ook passende wetgeving nodig is voor de honderden andere geperfluoreerde verbindingen die eveneens erg toxisch zijn en die min of meer vrij kunnen worden gebruikt. Deze verbindingen vergiftigen ons en zullen dat in de nabije toekomst blijven doen."@nl³ "Mr President, Commissioner, Mr Schlyter rightly deserves our congratulations for his excellent report, which I fully support.

Carl Schlyter förtjänar verkligen våra gratulationer för sitt utmärkta betänkande, som har mitt fulla stöd. Den viktigaste aspekten av det här lagförslaget är förmodligen att historien om perfluorooktansulfonat (PFOS) tyvärr är en skamfläck för EU och det internationella konsumentskyddet. Den får inte upprepas. Trots att det var känt att PFOS var en persistent, bioackumulerande toxisk förening användes det i otaliga konsumentprodukter och i olika industriella tillämpningar i årtionden. Det har lett till irreversibla skador på såväl miljön som människor och djur. Låt oss hoppas att det direktiv vi nu behandlar kommer att genomföras så snart som möjligt. Låt oss samtidigt komma ihåg att det även kommer att behövas lämplig lagstiftning för att hantera de hundratals andra perfluorföreningar som även de är mycket toxiska. För närvarande tillåts dessa mer eller mindre oreglerat att förgifta oss och kommer att fortsätta göra det inom en överskådlig framtid."@sv²¹
