lpv:translated text	"Article 20 of the text which we have just voted in favour of requires that, when active substances are going through the approval procedure, account should be taken of their impact on domestic bee populations and the views of professional beekeepers’ organisations. This is not a problem that concerns only the future; it is a problem that exists right now. In western and central areas of France, for several years now and more than ever this year in the south-west, we have seen the extremely serious effects on domestic bee populations of several systemic insecticides used to treat the seeds of certain arable crops, in particular sunflowers and maize. It has now been proved that these products, which contain the active substances imidacloprid and fipronil, have a damaging effect on the nervous systems of honey-gathering insects, not only on the crop which undergoes the seed treatment but also for subsequent crops in the rotation, since these systemic products persist for several years in harvesting residues which are ploughed into the soil and subsequently in humus. The whole of the bee-keeping sector is being damaged by the deaths of tens of thousands of beehives every year."@en1
