lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Mr Lipietz has written an excellent report which highlights two of the European Investment Bank’s real weaknesses. The first is that the bank has had a terrible information policy, and there has been poor supervision of the bank’s decisions and work. The second is that the bank’s environmental work has, as I see it, been extremely poor. There are numerous examples where the bank has supported projects within the EU and in the candidate countries which have actually been indefensible from an environmental point of view. With regard to the area of environmental impact analysis, it is clear that the World Bank, for example, is better than the European Investment Bank at making analyses public before decisions are taken. We have at least recently encountered a new attitude from the EIB. There has been more talk about dialogue, openness, environmental considerations and change. We hope this will lead to real reform of the bank’s work – which we would of course welcome – and to the Aarhus Convention on Access to Information, Public Participation in Decision-making and Access to Justice in Environmental Matters being implemented in full at the bank. I would like to say that we support this excellent report and the amendments tabled by the Group of the Greens."@en1
