"This directive on industrial emissions and integrated pollution prevention and control is incredibly important as regards air quality for all the citizens of Europe. At present, we do not have a level playing field between Member States. Some of them are doing their best, while others are doing nothing at all. It is therefore outrageous that countries such as Italy and the United Kingdom have blocked the necessary improvements in the Council. I voted in favour of the final text, because it represents a clear tightening of the rules, albeit allowing options that can be spread over a period of 12 years. However, the final result will be that coal-fired power stations in the United Kingdom and Italy, or wherever in Europe they might be, will have to meet stringent standards so that we can guarantee good health for the citizens of all our Member States. That is, ultimately, what this is about."@en1
