"The deadline for transposing the directive adopted in 2004, aimed at putting in place measures to protect workers from the risks arising from exposure to electromagnetic fields, was set for 30 April 2012. It is, in fact, proving to be very difficult to transpose this text into our national legislation, especially when it comes to the medical community. The maximum exposure values laid down in that directive could place disproportionate limitations on the use and development of medical magnetic resonance applications, considered to be a vital tool for the diagnosis and treatment of numerous diseases. I therefore supported the decision to postpone by 18 months the deadline for transposing the directive on the protection of workers exposed to electromagnetic fields. As the rapporteur, Elisabeth Morin-Chartier, pointed out, this postponement gives us the breathing space we needed to reach an agreement with the Council of Ministers on the new proposal for a directive currently on the table. However, our objective is to adopt new legislation before 2014 that takes into account the special characteristics of the various sectors of activity."@en1
