"I welcome this resolution. Firstly, in order to properly implement the Waste Management Directive and related legislation and establish effective waste management strategies, infrastructure and facilities, appropriate financing should be allocated from the Cohesion Fund or the European Investment Bank. Furthermore, Member States must carry out inspections, monitoring and other necessary actions at all stages of the waste management chain. I believe that we must establish common EU standards for colour-coding categories of waste, which would be used for sorting and recycling. It is also very important to ensure that mandatory environmental impact assessments are conducted before any decision is taken to establish or construct a new waste facility, particularly a landfill. Furthermore, local authorities should engage in a constructive dialogue with local communities in order to reduce their resistance. Local populations must have a guarantee that permitting and operating authorities are respecting the rules correctly and transparently. I believe that the Commission must impose dissuasive fines for the illegal disposal of waste. There should also be more of a focus on the influence of all types of organised crime on environment-related offences."@en1
