lpv:translated text	"In favour. The accelerated phasing-in of double-hull or equivalent design requirements for single-hull oil tankers is a very important issue. Oil slicks resulting from oil tanker accidents, such as those involving the in 1999 and the in 2002, are major environmental disasters with tragic repercussions for marine fauna and flora. Reflecting a concern for the environment and a willingness to learn from past mistakes, this regulation seeks to reduce the risks of accidental oil pollution in European waters through accelerated phasing-in of double-hull requirements. In single-hull vessels, the oil in the cargo tanks is separated from the seawater only by the bottom and side plating. If the hull is damaged following a collision or grounding, there is a risk that the cargo tanks will discharge their contents into the sea and cause major pollution. An effective means of avoiding this risk is to surround the cargo tanks with a second inner plate at a sufficient distance from the outer shell. This ‘double-hull’ design protects the cargo tanks from damage and thus reduces the pollution risk."@en1
