lpv:translated text	". Having supported the Directive on public access to environmental information, today we are supporting public participation in environmental programmes. This text will have the onerous task of making decision making more transparent and involving local populations in projects that affect their health and their environment. Too often everything happens in ministries' corridors, without consultation and out of sight. We can congratulate the rapporteur and the conciliation committee on their work. It is imperative that the obligation be laid on environmental authorities to inform the public of decisions taken and of the reasons for them. It is essential that we ensure that the time limits laid down for participation in public enquiries are sufficient to enable the people to prepare for them. Two of the provisions, however, are not acceptable as they stand. First of all training the public in decision-making is the role of associations. We should also ensure that there is flexible interpretation in order to prevent public authorities from being paralysed by cumbersome and costly public enquiries and also to prevent NGOs from making themselves the spokespersons for the people. Having read the text, that is a risk that cannot be ruled out."@en1
