"Madam President, I would like to thank Commissioner Oettinger for his statement to the Polish press, in which he said that shale gas represents an opportunity for the European Union, and that, since we do not wish to be dependent on imports, the use of shale gas lies in the European Union’s interests. However after listening to the Commissioner today, I would like to encourage him to show greater enthusiasm when talking about shale gas, which could prove to be a hidden treasure. I understand all his misgivings about environmental protection, which are obviously based on past experience. I would, however, encourage the Commission to be more active in supporting this prospecting, and to use the time you mentioned – you said that the first results may be available in five years’ time – to help all those searching for shale gas to ensure that the methods used are not detrimental to the natural environment. This should primarily be the task of the Commission. I would like to encourage the Commissioner to try harder, for the sake of the shale gas which is to be found in Europe."@en1
