lpv:translated text	"Mr President, today, once again, it is necessary to discuss the disaster, two and a half months after it occurred, because its tragic consequences are far from over. Now we must continue both to apply pressure, together with citizens’ organisations, to ensure that Total pays the full costs for everything destroyed due to its unbridled pursuit for profits, and also to make a firm commitment to ensuring that this type of disaster never happens again. Even though the joint motion for a resolution is an interesting one, it does not tackle the subject of flags of convenience, a problem which must be both condemned and resolved as a matter of urgency if we are to contribute to the principle of preventing maritime disasters. It is actually not so much a matter of improving safety checks on these flags of convenience, as stipulated in the resolution, as actually working right now to eliminate their existence. This is the only solution to ensure that seafarers’ living and working conditions are satisfactory, that they are covered by effective legislation and social protection, and that fishing operations and the environment are respected. Parliament adopts a resolution after every maritime disaster. Generally it puts forward positive technical measures, some of which are adopted in directives. If they were applied, they would in fact serve to counter the idea of cutting costs to the minimum, a policy which is maintained through flags of convenience."@en1
