"Madam President, I welcome the drafting of this report against the background of the change in global nuclear policy and of the Commission’s proposal for a directive in this area.
I must insist on how important it is to apply fairly the ‘polluter pays’ principle, as has also proved to be the case in the wake of the disaster in Japan. Although its low cost makes nuclear energy attractive, the safety of employees and civilians must come first. This is why I support cooperation between Member States aimed at the safe storage of nuclear waste. Transparency in this process also involves the population in determining the storage site and other details. Regional research programmes in this area have already proved their benefit.
I also think that EU Member States need to share the use as well of facilities for treating and storing waste from nuclear power stations."@en1
