"Mr President, with regard to the report by my colleague Mr Őry, I am torn between three feelings: satisfaction, regret and a wish.
My satisfaction is at the completion of the efforts initiated in 1994 to take a concerted approach to the risks faced by workers. The attitude of our societies towards life's risks is a key element in the European social model that differentiates it from many others.
My regret is that the European Commission, under pressure from the Council, was not willing to negotiate with Parliament regarding the most reasonable solution, namely invoking the subsidiarity principle. That would have relieved our fear that the states would be obliged to transpose the rules on solar radiation because they are referred to in the framework directive. The Council turning its nose up at the subsidiarity principle in collusion with the Commission – that really is a paradox!
My wish is that in future we will be able to deal with the issue of solar radiation flexibly, without pointless legislation or bureaucracy. For example, the European Agency for Health and Safety at Work, based in Bilbao, could launch a major information campaign aimed at European workers, warning them of the risks presented by exposure to the sun."@en1
