"Mr President, the accident that occurred in Seveso, costing the lives of many people, showed how important it is to take preventive action against industrial accidents too: the primary aim is to prevent such things from happening, while the secondary aim is to ensure appropriate safety measures are in place if accidents do occur. This is also the reason why these directives were named for Seveso. We have had Seveso I and Seveso II, and now we have Seveso III. This places an obligation on operators and the authorities in Member States to avoid accidents. According to the regulations, operators are required to put a multi-level strategy in place that is more stringent the more hazardous the materials. Precise plans are required for production facilities and must cover toxic substances, evacuation plans and employee training. The current directive covers about 10 000 businesses. This number alone is an indication of the importance of the issue. It is for that reason that I have always supported this report."@en1
