"The EU has around 14 thousand billion cubic metres of shale gas and oil that might be technically recoverable. However, advanced methods of shale gas and oil extraction may be environmentally harmful, particularly hydraulic fracking. I voted in favour of the report, as it proposes that environmental and safety rules are observed, based on the reference framework provided by the good practices and legislation already existing in the United States and Canada (particularly in the Provinces of British Colombia and Alberta), where shale gas extraction has existed for some time. In addition to the above, I also feel it is vital for the Commission and public authorities in the Member States to check and improve the regulatory frameworks in order to ensure that this energy source can be explored, extracted and marketed in a way that is economically, socially and environmental sustainable in the long term."@en1
