lpv:translated text	"I welcomed this report because most European citizens expect public authorities to provide efficient and effective public services in the areas of health, education, transport and security. However, one issue that provokes a growing number of petitions is the apparent inability of public authorities in many countries to deal satisfactorily with the problem of waste management. Member States must ensure that a full and mandatory environmental impact assessment is conducted before any decision is taken to establish or construct a new waste facility, notably, an incinerator or methanisation plant, or, in the worst case scenario, a new landfill. The Commission is encouraged to propose clearer and more specific criteria for the location of landfills in relation to local housing, schools or health facilities in order to ensure more robust guarantees against potential risks to human health and the environment, bearing in mind that there are a large number of variables and local considerations that need to be taken into account. I believe that meeting legally established recycling and prevention targets requires the active participation of civil society, improved stakeholder participation and increased public awareness. The recommendations contained in this report should contribute to better implementation of waste management policy in the future."@en1
