"− It is important for the EU to ensure that its coasts are protected. It is also necessary that the legislation in force strengthen the safety of oil exploration and extraction. The European Maritime Safety Agency, located in Lisbon, provides support and technical assistance in developing and implementing Union legislation in matters of safety and maritime protection, as well as in the area of pollution caused by ships. In June of this year I presented a written suggestion to Commissioners Oettinger, Kallas and Georgieva to expand the powers of the European Maritime Agency to create mechanisms to supervise the safety of European oil platforms located in the North Sea, the Black Sea and the Mediterranean, and for it to be responsible for preventing environmental disasters related to oil exploration. This suggestion allows an economy of scale in financial, human and technical resources. I welcome the response of the Commissioners, which showed that they are open to reviewing the regulation of the European Maritime Agency, expanding its powers in the area of intervening in maritime pollution incidents. I again appeal to the European Commission to expand the powers of the European Maritime Safety Agency in order to ensure that our coasts are protected."@en1
