"Mr President, I too would like to congratulate the rapporteur on his good report and his good work. The overall approach and many individual points have already been mentioned this evening. I would like to pick up on two of these, namely the rapporteur’s call, which we have also been making, for this directive to be closely linked with the Water Framework Directive, because we are convinced that effective flood prevention and management can only be achieved if the aims of this directive are consistent with those of the Water Framework Directive.
At the same time, I warmly welcome the demand for enhanced natural flood prevention. The floods of recent years have shown that technical measures alone cannot prevent disasters and that the nature of streams and rivers must be taken into account. Rivers and streams must be given more space again. Moreover, the growing tendency to destroy soil through intensive agriculture must be combated. Greater emphasis must be placed on the role of farming and forestry in flood prevention."@en1
