lpv:translated text	"Thank you, Madam President. An important aspect that has exacerbated the subsequent accident in Enschede, and also in Toulouse, is the location of the enterprises in question in the immediate vicinity of residential areas. This illustrates that physical planning is of crucial importance to avoid future accidents or to minimise the effects of an accident. We are therefore agreed in principle on the proposed amendments in this directive with regard to the physical planning aspect. It is of great importance that dangerous operations, should, in due course, be separated from residential areas or other areas frequently visited by the public. I should, however, like to emphasise that, in my view, the individual Member States have an important role to play here. Physical planning is an issue in respect of which each country can, and should, take up its own responsibility, certainly where the protection of its own people is concerned. We are therefore also pleased with the pledge by the European Commission, with regard to the further detailing of the physical planning article, to step up cooperation with the Member States. I should also like to thank Mrs Wallström for the fact that she has honoured the pledge which she had made at the time to a delegation from the Netherlands with such promptness."@en1
