Mr President, in no other Member State has air quality been the subject of such a discussion as in my own country. As I see it, the problems that are current in the Netherlands should also be evident in nearly all other Member States, certainly in the urban areas. The agreement that has been reached between the political groups throws open the possibility for delay, rightly so, before the limit values for PM10 start taking effect, and I shall be advising my group to vote in favour of it. I should, in fact, like to draw your particular attention to Amendment 76, because it is my belief that the agreement – and, I think, wrongly – has taken no account of the position of nitrogen oxide. I should like to ask the Members to support that amendment.
I should now like to turn to Commissioner Dimas. So far, Commissioner, you have always claimed that the Commission cannot agree to the idea of a possible delay in combination with new measures from the Commission. You will notice tomorrow that you have a broad majority facing you. You also undoubtedly read the report last week compiled by the Institute for European Environmental Policy, which states that combining the two would be a very good thing. Is there really no chance of you meeting us half-way in this?
Finally, of course, a word of thanks to both rapporteurs. I know it can be very tricky to negotiate all the difficulties in an issue as sensitive as this, but I think you managed it really well, and that is why we are indebted to you both. Mr Sjöstedt, many thanks for the good teamwork; God bless."@en1
