lpv:translated text	"We chose to vote in favour of Amendments Nos 76 and 19 and against, for example, Amendments Nos 5 and 7. That is because we believe that the definition of bathing water must be simple and clear and afford as little room for interpretation as possible. It is very unsatisfactory for legal certainty that the directive does not contain a simple and clear definition. Nor do we believe that an unmanageable number of bathing areas should be covered by the directive. Furthermore, we are opposed to extending the scope of the directive to include water activities in addition to bathing. That would place unreasonable demands upon the local authorities, which would then also have to take samples in connection with various sports, which might also have much longer seasons than the actual bathing season. Finally, we should like to see transitory contamination mentioned in the directive, but with a clear definition of what is meant by transitory contamination, together with a restriction upon the permitted period for such contamination. When the outcome of the vote was not as we had wished where these important points were concerned, we chose to vote against the proposal for a directive in the final vote."@en1
