The Moderate
delegation in the European Parliament today voted in favour of the Ries report on the European Environment and Health Action Plan 2004–2010. In our opinion, it is wrong, however, of the European Parliament to call on the Commission to take the initiative on issues of lifestyle-related diseases or various measures against smoking. Decisions on these issues fall within the competence of the Member States and should ultimately be taken primarily by individuals and not by politicians.
The Moderate Party
is of the opinion that the EU is an important tool in the pursuit of a better environment, but there are nevertheless limits to its responsibility. The responsibility of the EU should only extend to those environmental issues that are clearly of a cross-border nature. For this reason, it is wrong to call on the Commission to work, on the one hand, on eco-labelling of construction materials and, on the other, on drawing up lists of hazardous places of work and on setting up environmental ambulances."@en1
