"Mr President, I would say to the Commission and the Council to take all the time they need for this directive. In fact, as far as I am concerned, they can take it away forever. From my point of view, I believe we neither need nor require this directive.
Farmers suffer enough red tape and bureaucracy at present and they see this all emanating from Brussels. This could well be the straw that breaks the camel’s back.
It is true that soil is very important and must be protected, but I have never yet met a farmer who will not protect the soil on his land – their future depends on it. The needs from the different parts of Europe are very different. Soils require different support from the north to the south, from the east to the west.
This is a sensitive issue. Please take it away and bury this directive. As Mr Mulder said, we already have sufficient directives. The intention may be good, but we do not need this good intention."@en1
