". The proposal for a directive on environmental liability is of great importance in ensuring improved environmental protection and combating all kinds of pollution. Whether we take the example of in Toulouse in 2002 or the and oil tankers, these disasters cost human lives and lead to serious, long-term environmental damage. The report by the Committee on Legal Affairs and the Internal Market proposes a more conciliatory position with regard to business interests, weakening the initial proposal for a directive. On the contrary, the provisions laid down should be strengthened with protection measures, making polluters bear the cost of environmental damage, giving NGOs and citizens the opportunity to take their case to court, and including in the directive damage caused by GMOs. At a time when the IOPCF has just announced a ludicrous compensation rate of 15% for the damage caused by the causing amazement and anger among the people and associations, and rightly so, Europe now has a duty to send out a completely different message. It must send out a clear message of justice and determination."@en1
