lpv:translated text	"Mr President, first of all, I would like to congratulate the rapporteur, Mr Iturgaiz Angulo, for an excellent report. In the period 2004-2010, the Committee on Petitions actually received and declared admissible a total of 114 petitions, alleging breaches of European Union legislation on waste alone. This indicates all too clearly that the issue is a topical one, and one that is also rightly worrying the public. There are enormous differences among the Member States of the European Union as regards their waste management policies, and this is something that we ought to be able to address more closely. The deadline for the implementation of the Waste Framework Directive expired in 2010, and only six Member States have managed to implement it. In other words, public concern regarding the matter needs to be taken very seriously. It also needs to be remembered that waste is an opportunity. As has been said, waste is a resource, and improvements in waste management are also bound to create new jobs and improve resource efficiency in the European Union."@en1
