"Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, finally after a lengthy and extremely difficult procedure, we are facing a solution regarding the regulation on registering, evaluating and licensing of chemical substances.
The said regulation is a unique opportunity for all of us to achieve a high level of public health and environmental protection, both for us but also for future generations.
I would like to express my support for the solution that Mr Sacconi achieved, to whom we owe congratulations.
Maybe we did want more strict rules or a regulation with broader applications. What we must note though, is that the primary goal is to activate as soon as possible the control system for dangerous substances, even if there are still issues that need redefinition in the future.
By adopting REACH, the existing legal framework on control of dangerous chemical substances will be strengthened in order to protect the health of European citizens, while at the same time it will boost competitiveness of European industry through innovation and research for the development of safer chemical substances.
REACH is a new, realistic proposal, which we all ought to support by continuing to work on improving it. We should not send REACH back into the hallways, where it was for so many years, in order for it to become more environmentally friendly and more socialist in nature."@en1
