"Mr President, I actually have a further question. It is very important that regulations governing health and safety at work are applied in the field of shipping, especially where oil tankers are concerned. It is also of crucial importance to comply with environmental legislation. Since the Erika disaster, we have had several projects in Europe that have aimed to improve environmental legislation with regard to oil tankers.
Yesterday an oil spillage was discovered close to a nature conservation area in the archipelago off Turku, in Finland, probably due to some breach of environmental legislation – or at least the reason for it has not yet become apparent. I would therefore like the Commissioner to comment on what measures can also be taken with regard to environmental legislation so that culprits may be identified, and on whether it is possible that the Commission might also take action regarding the kinds of oil-related accidents that occurred last year in Gotland, on the French coast (with regard to the Erika disaster), and now in Turku in Finland."@en1
