".
This proposal is extremely important in two fundamental areas: it both enhances safety in the management and the use of the sea and also contributes to reducing pollution.
Because of the type of vessel it targets, the proposal for a regulation is also crucial, since its scope is extended to cover vessels operating in domestic, as well as international waters within the Community.
The Commission has done a good job and on this I offer it my congratulations. Incidentally, the Committee on Regional Policy, Transport and Tourism has used this report to propose that its proposal for a regulation should also be adopted.
What we have here are measures that might at first glance appear to be highly technical, but once carefully analysed, prove to be crucial to achieving the stated aim.
It should be remembered that security in transport, not only in maritime transport but also in air and road transport has always been one of the European Union’s top priorities and this is reflected in the legislation that has been adopted, particularly in the last decade.
For this reason and because I am quite happy with the thrust of the proposal, I voted in favour"@en1
