lpv:translated text	". Who is responsible for assessing how environmentally-friendly companies are? The report produced by the Conciliation Committee deems the outcome of the conciliation procedure highly satisfactory. This relates to the compromise, in which amendments were adopted and withdrawn. One of the withdrawn amendments concerned a desire expressed by Parliament at previous readings to be able to allow independent accountants and environmental accountants, as well as large verification institutions, to participate in a Community environmental management and audit system and issue certificates. The possibility exists in Germany, but in the Netherlands and Denmark the large institutions are trying to block it. I would remind you of the amendment tabled by the former MEP Mrs Van Putten, of the PSE Group, which was designed to prevent individual countries from continuing to exclude independent accountants. I note that this aspiration was not given due attention during the conciliation procedure. This would appear to put the ball back in the court of the two Member States concerned. However, this strategy will not succeed because the excluded group of interested parties will continue to point out that there is now a European regulation. I expect there to be some differences of interpretation regarding this, as yet, unresolved problem, in the time to come, and will therefore ask the Commission for clarification before long."@en1
