lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, the Commission, the Council and Parliament have all talked much of better regulation and removing duplication. Yet here we have a new groundwater directive not to consolidate or replace, but to supplement, the existing directives: the Water Framework Directive and the Nitrates Directive. The overregulated farmer, instead of having one clear-cut directive with which to comply, has to contend with aspects of four directives on this subject. So, far from the promised rationalisation of legislation, we seem to be seeing more proliferation. As for the assurance that loss of income suffered by farmers as a result of restriction on farming practices can be offset under the Rural Development Regulation, that is of no comfort in a country like the United Kingdom, where a large part of the funding for rural development is coming from the farmers themselves, through top-slicing their single farm payments via the misnamed ‘voluntary modulation’."@en1
