lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I should like to congratulate my eminent honourable friend Helmuth Markov on the effort he made in drafting this report. Having said which, I would highlight two important points: firstly, the improvement to the working conditions and rights of drivers and, secondly, the assumption of responsibility by the Member States towards employers on safety matters, with the result that it will be possible to improve insurance even more in the immediate future. However, it must be said that, despite the positive steps, the environment which prevails in European transport does not, unfortunately, allow the value of human life to be placed beyond question; in other words, for there to be consistent monitoring at all times of the application of humane working times for drivers and monitoring of the application of safety rules at the source, at the root of the matter we are debating, by which I mean at the company head offices. That is why the Council too rejected the proposal, which would allow the Member States' controlling authorities to carry out inspections and ascertain the extent to which the working time limits laid down in the Working Time Directive are being applied and to take account of drivers' fatigue as a result of loading and unloading the vehicle and other factors."@en1
