"I voted in favour of the resolution initiated by the EP (EPP Group) based on fact-finding visits and petitions of European citizens to the Parliament concerning the environment, in particular, the inappropriate application by the Member States of the Waste Management Directive (new plants, landfills and incinerators). Three main problems were identified: a lack of a sound environmental impact assessment and public consultations in the permission procedure for landfills; incorrect operation of waste management facilities and deficiencies in waste management systems. I agree that the EP, at EU level, should urge the Member States to speed up the transposition of the Waste Framework Directive into national law, that there should be reinforcement of the existing European Environment Agency for monitoring purposes rather than creating new instances, and that the Member States should be recommended to impose, in accordance with the ‘polluter pays’ principle, adequate and dissuasive fines and penalties for illegal disposal of waste, especially with regard to toxic and hazardous waste."@en1
