lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the discussion of this report is rather odd. Six years ago, this Parliament called for participation in respect of the composition of the list of priority TENs projects. The fact that this was impossible at the time led to great indignation. There is now cause for surprise – surprise at the fact that it now appears that this Parliament no longer wants this participation, although this possibility is now formally in place. In order to restore the necessary consistency, I, along with the Liberal group, have tabled a number of amendments in order to make use of this opportunity to participate. In this way, we can offer the Council a counterbalance when it fine-tunes Annex III, entirely in line with the set-up of six years ago. If we fail to reach agreement on this, it will be more sensible to take the time to reconsider the situation and to delay the discussion on the TENs projects until the wholesale review of the list in 2004. Another important area of attention is the implementation of the Trans-European Networks, particularly with regard to the environmental pre-conditions within which this is supposed to take place. The approach which the Committee on Regional Policy, Transport and Tourism has maintained in this connection is the correct one. However, ambiguity has crept into the proposals with regard to the functioning of Directive 2001/42/EC. This directive allocates certain tasks relating to environmental impact reports to the Member States. In Amendment No 20, the Commission is being allocated the same tasks. This seems to be a waste of effort and resources to us. The good cause is not served by duplication. The distribution of tasks must be clear. This is why I have tabled four amendments in order to avoid these duplications."@en1
