"Mr President, I would ask the Commissioner to pay particular attention to development and to the conclusions of the Galician Parliament’s committee of inquiry on this latest disaster. In recent years, Galicia has been particularly affected by disasters, such as the . Furthermore, in recent years, 350 000 hectares of forest have been destroyed by fires, and this summer around 80 000. We must therefore pay close attention to this inquiry, so that we can take account of the requests for significant legislative changes which will undoubtedly have to be made. In recent days, we have been witnessing another disaster in Galicia: the River Umia is being contaminated by a chemical industry; its location right next to the River Umia should never have been allowed. I would therefore ask the Commissioner to pay particular attention here. Why? Because the specific characteristics of this latest disaster suggest that these fires have been started deliberately by professionals. Who is behind this natural disaster? If penalties need to be increased, if European legislation has to be amended, there is no question that that must be done and, in particular, we must keep a close eye on this inquiry, because there are people behind this and they must be exposed."@en1
