lpv:translated text	"On the subject of health and safety, Articles 31 and 32 of the Euratom Treaty are not only providing a basis for the law in the process of being amended, but they also constitute an obligation for us. Bearing in mind the health and safety of Europe's citizens, we must keep nuclear legislation up to date. In accepting the Seppänen report, I firmly believe that we are doing enough to meet this obligation we have, and that we are making Directive 92/3/Euratom more effective. I feel that it is extremely important that the legislation is on the correct middle course, in several respects. First of all, it ensures the close monitoring of radioactive waste and of the spent fuel, which is now being re-processed, without the application of unjustified restrictions and bans. Secondly, it guarantees citizens' safety, without imposing, in exchange, a disproportionate burden on economic operators. Finally, although the regulation widens the scope of the legislation, it does not break away from the principle of subsidiarity. In other words, although the new legislation provides people with new guarantees, Member States remain responsible for creating regulations specific to national particularities, as well as for ensuring the operation of the authorities that guarantee the enforcement of these regulations. However, the latter also means that apart from jointly refining the legislation providing a stable basis for safety, it is also necessary to ensure the effective operation of the national authorities that constitute this framework, so that every citizen in the European Union can enjoy the greater safety offered by the new directive. All the above is vitally important for the future of Europe's energy supply too, because we should be aware that the success of this complex operation is also the key to ensuring that people have confidence in nuclear energy."@en1
