lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Commissioner, Mr President-in-Office of the Council, ladies and gentlemen, the shipwreck of the has demonstrated the powerlessness of the European authorities and the various Member States when faced with a disastrous situation like this one which, although the coasts it has ravaged belong to Galicia, is nevertheless a European disaster and is felt to be so by all European citizens. It is precisely the European public, shocked at this appalling event, and the upset and fury of all those affected – particularly the wonderful Galician coastline and its communities – that are demanding that such a situation must not be allowed to happen again on our common coastline. It is the citizens that are hoping that Galicia will be given appropriate assistance by the EU. A committee of inquiry is required, in order to shed light on all the circumstances of the disaster and to determine responsibility so that we can learn lessons for the future. Europe’s citizens are demanding that legislation be made tougher, and that it enter into force and be implemented earlier than planned, without further ado. Protecting Europe’s maritime industry must increasingly be a common concern and therefore a common policy. Protecting the marine environment and the European coast are now major challenges for us all. If the tragedy of the serves to raise political consciousness and to stimulate action, the despair and the fury of the Galician people – and ours too – will not have been in vain."@en1
