"Mr President, I would expressly like to thank the Commissioner for the great sensitivity she has shown so far in her handling of the Brenner traffic and Brenner base tunnel issues, and I particularly appreciate the fact that mention has repeatedly been made of the need to give special consideration to the environmental implications. I would point out that the alternative project ATT3 – and I would like to thank Commissioner Kinnock and the chairman, Mr Coleman, for their efforts here – has been examined closely and in great detail by the Commission over the past two years, and I have also received a written report on this. I would just like to add that the question from Mr Messner goes like this: “in the event that a new installation is to be built, the project that is the most and least environmentally friendly is to be examined”. It is completely beyond me as to why anyone should ask the Commission to make sure that something is as harmful to the environment as it possibly could be. This is all about people living in a sensitive area who must be protected. The fact that this request came from the Greens makes it all the more baffling, and it should be thrown out for this reason."@en1
