"I voted for this report because the consequences of major environmental disasters highlight the need for the accelerated phasing-in of double-hull or equivalent design for single-hull oil tankers. I think that adequate protection needs to be provided in the event of accidents occurring, thereby preventing the disastrous effects of oil spills on water, soil and marine fauna and flora.
At the same time, when defining regulations in this area, it is important to respect the specific powers of each European institution. I endorse the position of the rapporteur, who amended the Commission’s proposal to reflect the European Parliament’s stance on delegated acts. On this point, I should highlight Amendment 1, which not only mentions the importance of the Commission organising appropriate consultations during its preparatory work, including at expert level, but also recommends that it should send relevant documents to the European Parliament and the Council."@en1
