"The recasting of the seven directives regulating industrial emissions in Europe into a single, highly polemic text, has finally been adopted and we should welcome this vote. The aim is to minimise all the harmful effects of the majority of our industrial activities within the EU, namely, the emitting of potential pollutants into the air, water and soil and waste.
The final agreement achieved will go much further. It takes up the key points of the position that we have been defending within the Committee on the Environment for several months, and which were designed to make this text an ambitious, yet realistic, piece of legislation in tune with the problems in our countries.
The agreement strengthens the provisions on environmental protection but grants the Member States certain flexibilities, which we fought for, with a framework applicable to large combustion plants. During this crisis period, we need strong European environmental policy, but it must not bring our industry to its knees. Industrial strategy and policy can no longer represent taboo notions in Brussels. Let us just take a look at what our competitors are doing in third countries!"@en1
