lpv:translated text	"I voted in favour of the Ford report for three main reasons: it adopts rules to protect the environment, rules to protect workers and rules to apportion responsibility between oil and natural gas extraction companies in the event that their activities damage the environment. The report focuses on effective action to prevent and deal with pollution caused by offshore drilling and oil and natural gas production. It also emphasises that these offshore activities involve extremely high risks for worker health and safety, that they must continue to be regulated in order to minimise human error and protect workers, and that they must be carried out in a way that avoids disparities in treatment between workers within the same company, depending on their place of work. Oil and natural gas companies must submit specific plans for dealing with emergencies throughout the operational period and during all stages of offshore works and prove that they have adequate financial guarantees to ensure the restoration of the environment in the event of environmental damage. Finally, no drilling should start until the Member State concerned has approved the said plan."@en1
