". Yes, we must protect our water in the face of the threats of pollution, at the same time as finding the optimum balance between safeguarding our groundwater and developing economic activities. The Framework Water Directive, which we have been waiting to see applied in a number of Member States for a very long time, establishes precise objectives and emphasises the polluter pays principle. It is, therefore, a matter of ensuring, above all, that these objectives are attained rather than of imposing new objectives that would be unattainable at present. Because groundwater differs from one area to the next, it would at present be counterproductive to impose compulsory quality standards to be applied uniformly throughout Europe. What is important is to require general monitoring, while leaving it to the Member States to determine threshold values for pollutants under the control of the European Union. Finally, I support Parliament’s request to the European Commission that specific measures be proposed within the framework of protecting spa water."@en1
