lpv:translated text	"Although the Hungarian prime minister said that ‘Hungary is strong enough to overcome the consequences of such a catastrophe on her own’, I would like to thank the European Commission and the Member States for the support extended and offered so far to overcome the consequences of the disaster. This disaster in Hungary also proves the need for stricter community regulations in the area of civil protection. The Treaty of Lisbon makes this possible, since it makes disaster management the joint responsibility of the community and Member States. The disaster in the vicinity of Ajka can be the first real test of the Environmental Liability Directive that came into force in 2007, and we will now see whether we can fully enforce the ‘polluter pays’ principle. Among other things, the law proposes that companies create financial reserves to manage the consequences of potential industrial disasters. It is worth considering whether we should make the creation of such financial reserves mandatory for companies working with hazardous materials. I urge the Hungarian Government to start negotiations with the European Commission as soon as possible on the redistribution of environmental protection and rural development funds for the purposes of disaster management. I welcome the proposal made by the European Commission in the communication concerning the budget review, published on Tuesday, that the Solidarity Fund should also be made available in future for the elimination of the consequences of industrial disasters."@en1
