lpv:spoken text	". I fully support the European Commission in its very strict approach to regulating the shipment of waste on EU territory and in EU waters. Likewise, I commend the rapporteur for his excellent work on the matter. Many of his amendments go towards tightening up even further the rules and controls. We are all aware of the devastating consequences on our environment – as well as on animal and sometimes human life – that can result when adequate controls are not in place for the transport of waste products. In recent weeks we witnessed the attempt to bring a flotilla of decrepit decommissioned US warships through EU waters. I hope that appropriate legal measures will prevent the remaining 'rust buckets' laden with hazardous waste from crossing the Atlantic to be dismantled in the UK. Indeed, unless we prevent this deadly cargo from setting out on its journey, it will pass within a very short distance of the south-east coast of Ireland and my constituency of Leinster, Ireland. I agree that there will be a certain administrative cost associated with implementing the new controls proposed by the Commission."@en1
