lpv:translated text	"Today, I voted in favour of this report, which stipulates that detergents used for washing machines should henceforth no longer contain phosphates. It should be remembered that phosphates are used in detergents in order to reduce water hardness and to improve washing. However, when they are discharged into lakes and rivers, they promote the growth of algae which kill other aquatic species by depriving them of oxygen (detergents are the third most important source of phosphates discharged into surface waters, after agriculture and sewage, and washing powder is the greatest source of phosphates in the detergents sector). From January 2013, phosphorus compounds used in detergents for washing machines will no longer be able to exceed 0.5 g per wash. These rules will be extended to dishwashers from 2015. These new rules – and I am delighted – will undoubtedly improve water quality and protect aquatic life, which is attacked by phosphates discharged into wastewater."@en1
