"In the ten years since Rio, targets have yet to be reached. The environment is under enormous pressure. Poverty is increasing throughout the globe. It is vital that next year's world summit is successful in strengthening measures which ensure that development is undertaken in a sustained manner that protects existing communities.
The Fifth Environmental Action Programme safeguards people from the adverse effects of air pollution. The Action Programme's long-term goal will not be attained easily; therefore the Commission has rightly decided on a step-by-step approach setting out interim environmental targets for the year 2010.
I am glad that the report has been amended to include nuclear fuel and energy and financial as well as economic analyses. It is essential that we include the tracking of nuclear fuel information, and in particular subsidies for nuclear fuel and energy.
Local authorities must also freely give information when requested. I have recently had representations from constituents in Kilkenny, Ireland, because of the difficulty they have had in getting information with regard to developments in Archer's field. I have requested information myself from the local authority and the regional Commissioner but so far without success. If European money has been used inappropriately to divert a road, and a development is being built on the route of the old road, this would be an absolutely scandalous occurrence and we need an explanation for it."@en1
