"Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, let me congratulate the rapporteur on her excellent work. I think it reflects Parliament’s concerns about how much the Union has so far abided by its commitments within the framework of the Sixth Community Environment Action Programme.
The Commission’s mid-term review reveals that coordinated efforts are required to plug the gaps in legislation with new legislative proposals. It is also necessary to secure the requisite resources to ensure proper implementation of Community legislation. Meanwhile, it is becoming understood that a greater reliance has to be placed on a sustainable model of production and consumption, and that economic growth must become more dependent on natural resources.
It is just as important to emphasise the international dimension of European environmental policy. The Union must be encouraged to continue promoting ambitious environmental policies and requirements, and to develop technology transfer and the exchange of good practice with developing countries."@en1
