lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I take note of the speeches by Mr Gerbrandy, whom I congratulate, and the Commissioner. As rapporteur for the opinion of the Committee on International Trade, I can only welcome the inclusion in the text adopted by the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety of many of the suggestions made in our report from the Committee on International Trade. There is no doubt that, in the context of the EU’s external dimension, trade in environmental goods and services is an instrument of particular significance for economic and social development. In particular, the opening up of the markets to highly energy-efficient goods and services plays a role in Europe’s conscientious growth in terms of exports, the creation of new jobs related to the spread of new green technologies, and innovation and competitiveness for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises. In our opinion, we have reaffirmed the importance of some essential elements in future European bilateral, multilateral and regional agreements: the reduction or removal of tariff and non-tariff barriers to trade in environmental goods and services; the inclusion of a section on sustainability; the inclusion of tariff preferences for environmental goods and services produced within the Generalised System of Preferences; not to mention the simplification of procedures. The European Union must maintain its global leadership in protecting the environment and promoting, through trade, the use of green goods, services and technologies in third countries for truly sustainable global growth. We must, Commissioner, particularly in relation to third countries, encourage the conclusion of trade agreements consistent with the proposed energy efficiency measures, thus ensuring deliberate, smart growth within the European Union."@en1
