"Madam President, we actually have two questions facing us. The first is about the nuclear share in Europe. On this issue, I believe that in the coming year, we must have a transparent public debate within the Union and within the Member States concerned. The second question is about the tests that have brought us all here this morning.
I would like to mention to you, Commissioner, the four principles that I think we should keep for a genuine control mechanism. The first principle is that a control mechanism must be obligatory.
The second principle is that this control mechanism should be entrusted to an independent and impartial authority. I do not have much faith in self-regulation.
The third principle is that this mechanism should be binding. If the tests should ever give negative results for particular installations, then these tests should have a binding effect on Member States, which would then have no choice but to close those non-functioning installations.
The fourth point is that this mechanism must be transparent: the results must be put before public opinion. In this way, we will perhaps be able to bring about what Mrs Ek has called a European safety culture."@en1
