".
It is essential that we create a legally binding legislative framework in the field of the safety of nuclear installations, given that there are still major discrepancies between nuclear safety measures in the various Member States.
The aim is to ensure that high levels of nuclear safety are maintained in the EU, given that the system to be implemented will fall within the competencies of national safety authorities. The purpose of the Community system is to complement national systems. Community monitoring will consist of verifying the way in which national authorities are carrying out their work. The intention is not to undertake on-site safety inspections of nuclear installations.
The Commission’s proposal would appear justified. Some objections, however, might be raised by Member States that feel that the Commission is interfering in matters of national sovereignty, in terms of competence to take decisions concerning conditions of securing and operating nuclear installations. This is why so much care is being taken in the wording of provisions on interaction with national safety authorities and the form that Community monitoring will take, which we believe to be the right approach. I therefore voted in favour."@en1
