"Mr President, I represent an Atlantic coastal region in France, and therefore in Europe, which has just been affected by the pollution from the . I would like to say that people are genuinely disturbed by what is happening, in particular because this is a new kind of pollution, because it is chronic and because we do not know how long it will last. I consequently believe that Parliament should accept the committee of inquiry that it previously rejected. We cannot want to strengthen the liability system and at the same time reject the idea of a parliamentary body such as ours going to the scene to find out what happened and drawing the appropriate conclusions. Secondly, I believe we must decide what to do with the wreck. We cannot leave thousands of fishermen and shellfish-gatherers as well as workers in the tourism sector, waiting around indefinitely, without proposing an industrial solution. I personally would ask the European Union to issue a call for projects soon, in order to try to find this industrial solution, which we are assured exists, in particular within the COMEX, which is one of the major world specialists in this area."@en1
