lpv:translated text	"When we talk about household laundry detergents and those used in dishwashers, there must be a balance struck between the substances used in detergents to ensure their effectiveness and the relevant substances’ environmental impact. The use of phosphates and phosphorus compounds poses a risk of ecosystem degradation and promotes the growth of algae, which is a risk that needs to be managed. The agreement which has been reached strikes such a balance through the restrictions that have been introduced on the content of phosphates in both laundry and dishwasher detergents, especially by imposing a time limit on their use. The obvious upshot of restricting the phosphate content is to promote innovation and the marketing of detergents which are just as effective, but with a less harmful environmental impact. We must allow the time needed to develop replacement products of this kind. This is why I give my full support to the solution which has been reached for dishwasher detergents, because the restriction comes into force in 2017, which leaves enough time not only to develop new products, but also for the Commission to draft its report so that we can see whether the proposed limit is appropriate."@en1
