lpv:translated text	". Mr President, as the rapporteur Mr Corbett said, this is a breakthrough. It is welcome and I am glad about it. Parliament’s supervisory powers hitherto in the comitology procedure have been virtually a farce. The Commission has many a time even neglected its obligation to inform Parliament of its decisions. Parliament recently took legal action against the Commission for exceeding its powers in comitology. The case began on an initiative by the Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance in the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety, when the Commission, exceeding its powers, had granted an exemption regarding the banned fire retardant Deca-BDE. Now this case is being rectified in two ways. Parliament will have the right to block future comitology decisions by a majority of Members. This Deca-BDE case was rectified at the end of June, when the Commission actually reversed its decision, which means that this hazardous substance will be removed from electronic equipment. I am glad about that."@en1
