lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, I would first of all like to express my thanks to my colleague, Bill Newton Dunn, for all his work, and mainly for successfully sticking to his guns throughout the entire process and defending an excellent report. The high phosphate content in detergents has a proven, highly adverse impact on marine and river ecosystems. The phosphates and phosphorous compounds contained in detergents for dishwashers and washing machines greatly stimulate the proliferation of algae in lakes, rivers and seas, resulting in the destruction of normal animal and plant life in these environments. Some Member States have already managed to observe the irreversible damage from the use of phosphate detergents and have started to take legal measures to avert more disastrous consequences. The European Parliament’s Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety showed its concern by supporting the inclusion of detergents as well within the scope of the regulation. I was at the Durban conference last week and would like to share with you the fact that the battle for a cleaner planet is strongly forging ahead. Against this background, I firmly believe that the European Union must again show strong resolve and leadership at a global level, creating ever-higher standards of environmental protection, as well as developing innovations and scientific research activities."@en1
