"As permanent rapporteur in the area of the legal basis of legislation in the European Parliament’s Committee on Legal Affairs, I would like to draw attention to one aspect of the report in particular – the question of its legal basis. In view of the controversies which are aroused by nuclear energy today and the fact that the EU institutional system has changed since the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon, I think the European Parliament should be included in the decision-making process in the area of nuclear energy. This, therefore, is why I recommended Article 192 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and Articles 31 and 32 of the Euratom Treaty as the proper legal basis for this directive. Unfortunately, because of changes to the calendar of work of the Committee on Legal Affairs, my opinion was not taken into consideration by the committee responsible for the directive – the Committee on Industry, Research and Energy – which by a very small majority voted to accept the Euratom Treaty as the only legal basis. I think this happened to the detriment of the transparency of the decision-making process for nuclear energy – a matter which is so important for the EU’s citizens."@en1
