lpv:translated text	". Mr President, I have the honour and the pleasure, as rapporteur, of informing the Members of this House of the fact that the draft agreement on waste statistics, reached during an informal meeting between representatives of Parliament, the Council and the Commission on 26 June last, was adopted by Coreper yesterday afternoon; this has been confirmed in writing by the Chairman of Coreper to the Chairman of the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Consumer Policy. With this, the last obstacles have been removed on the road to agreeing on the achieved result. The Council will be adopting 13 amendments from the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Consumer Policy, while a compromise has been reached on all other amendments. The compromise amendments have been tabled on behalf of the EDD Group, the Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance and the PSE Group, because only those groups were represented on 26 June, but these are also backed by other groups. I should like to have Commissioner Diamantopoulou confirm that in these waste statistics and the further development of pilot studies by the European Commission and Eurostat, every effort will be made to keep the burden for the respondents to a minimum. I am concerned that this very much applies to agriculture. I should also like to receive confirmation of the Council’s oral pledge to produce an annual update of the waste indicators available. After all, it is on this proviso that we accepted the biannual provision of information. Finally, we have gained one year, thanks to this agreement. This result could only be achieved thanks to the excellent cooperation with the members of the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Consumer Policy and their staff, as well as our unsurpassed Secretariat. I should also like to thank the 7 Council presidencies with whom I have teamed up, the European Commission and Eurostat, for their excellent cooperation."@en1
