lpv:translated text	". Mr President, first of all, I should like to congratulate Mr Maaten on the achieved result. It is partly thanks to his efforts that we will be able to adopt the review of the bathing water directive. I should also like to thank the Commission for its cooperation, because without the ambitious proposal it tabled, it would not have been possible to tighten up the criteria. I can inform you that I will agree to the result of the conciliation, even though I am not entirely satisfied with it. The category ‘acceptable’ that has been created is nothing but an excuse for covering up the fact that the standards have not been seriously firmed up. Moreover, the division that has been created between salt and fresh water is based on very limited information, and all of this means that the protection of bathers has improved far less than it might have done. I should like to draw the attention of the Commission and the Council to the article that Mr Maaten mentioned, which will be published next month. In that article, the standards are set out as to what we need in order to really protect bathers. I hope, Commissioner Dimas, that you will be prepared to use this data in your next review, which I hope will not be as long in coming."@en1
