lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Commissioner, I, too, would like to thank the rapporteur for his perseverance because I believe it was very important that there should be no half measures here. If we had only considered washing machine detergents, then we would only have been dealing in half measures. This is because the use of dishwasher detergents has a significant impact on our water. This provision constitutes a first step in ensuring that, in the future, we will allow our waters room to breathe, rather than simply survive, so that excessively large fish and algae populations do not spell the end for this resource. I would like to see the Commission taking a strict and consistent line in expanding this regulation to include industrial and institutionalised detergents because I believe there is a huge need for such a move. I know that this a complex and difficult area and we naturally need to consider how economic it is. Nonetheless, I believe that this is also our main problem in relation to Durban: you cannot negotiate with nature. We do not have very much time left in this area. This is why I would like to see us taking an urgent approach here. We must not lose sight of one thing: although we have banned phosphates from detergents, substitutes have been found. For this reason, we need to take a close look at these substitutes in the future. I am very grateful that we have a regulation that permits a great deal of flexibility, requiring attention to the question of different water hardness levels and cleaning grades. This should not, however, lead to the dilution of this regulation in any way."@en1
