lpv:translated text	"Mr President, my questions also relate to environmental policy. I would like to repeat the question from Mrs Frassoni on PVC and what has happened to the goals regarding PVC in this work programme, for they were included in both last year’s programme and that of the previous year, but they have now disappeared. This is exceedingly disturbing, as we are talking about an incredibly hazardous substance which we know exists in large quantities in our environment. In terms of waste, no fewer than four million tonnes of PVC waste are produced every year. Perhaps Commissioner Liikanen or Commissioner Wallström should answer the question of what has happened to the Commission’s goals on the issue of PVC. My second question relates to the structural funds, the common agricultural policy and EU-financed programmes and plans in general. During 2003-2004, Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA), will enter into force in the Member States. Unfortunately, SEA does not yet cover EU-financed plans and programmes, but the Commission has promised that this must happen, something for which Parliament has expressed its support. I now want to know whether it is the case that the Commission has started to set up an internal organisation to ensure that there is sufficient capacity to implement this type of impact assessment for EU-financed plans and programmes. My final question relates to Natura 2000. We are still waiting for a communication from the Commission, which has been delayed a number of times. Now it has been included in the programme, and I would therefore simply like to point out the importance of this communication actually being issued next year, preferably as soon as possible."@en1
