"This report seeks to set clear scientifically-based guidelines for assessing good quality groundwater and prevent further pollution. A natural resource occurring in rock aquifers, groundwater is used by agriculture and industry as well as for drinking water, yet it is particularly vulnerable to the problems of drought and pollution.
I therefore welcome this report in so far as it endorses risk-based approaches to the problem of deterioration. This means leaving Member States a certain amount of flexibility to prioritise worst cases of degradation in order to make their resources are well-matched to problems arising. Given the varying ecological circumstances across the EU, it also means supporting local solutions with guidance on common approaches
Following the vote I and my EPLP colleagues remain unhappy about a number of technical issues relating to the directive, and understand the UK Government will now pursue these issues in the final negotiations between the European Parliament and the European Council."@en1
