"This report deals with a list of significant issues within the area of sustainable development. The June List believes that there are good reasons for EU cooperation on cross-border environmental issues. However, the report addresses a number of crucial political areas that should lie outside the EU’s competence. The following are examples:
the investment to be made in public transport or, as the case may be, the development of road networks in the Member States;
debt cancellation for developing countries;
environmental taxes at EU level;
the inclusion or otherwise of environmental education as a subject on the curricula of primary schools in the Member States;
tax on labour in the Member States;
employment and social integration.
We are very critical of the fact that the EU institutions have a voracious appetite for increased influence. We have thus chosen to vote against the report as a whole but are well disposed towards individual paragraphs, mainly those dealing with genuinely cross-border environmental problems."@en1
