lpv:translated text	"History provides us with too many examples of devastating industrial accidents involving hazardous chemicals, which claim lives and destroy the environment. Although EU legislation has progressed, in order to reduce the frequency and impact of these accidents, the accident which occurred in Hungary in 2010 made us all realise that improvements and revisions to EU regulations are still required so as to reinforce the protection provided to communities and the environment against these potential disasters. I have been opposing for several years a mining project in Romania which, in the event of an accident, would affect, through cyanide pollution, a vast area which is valuable in terms of both the environment and biodiversity, and of its culture and history. The general public are quite rightly concerned by the fact that initiators of such projects refuse to be transparent and give the public access to objective, balanced information. They must be bound by law to provide accurate, complete information, thereby guaranteeing transparency. I welcome the fact that this report emphasises the point about informing the public and the rights of citizens to know about the potential hazards on their doorstep. I will continue to promote transparency and public debate with regard to other projects as well, such as shale gas or mining projects."@en1
