". Mr President, Commissioner, more and more people live close to factories and businesses that work with dangerous substances and chemicals. That involves risks to their lives and health and irreparable damage to the environment. From 2015, there will be stricter rules for the roughly 10 000 businesses that are subject to the new Seveso Directive. The object of the directive is to prevent and control accidents involving dangerous chemical substances and provide citizens with information. That is a good thing. However, as a result of the opposition in the Council, the opportunity to protect citizens and the environment in the event of an accident has not been exploited to the maximum extent. Our populations must be kept safe, even if they live close to a business that uses substances that are dangerous to inhale or that can be dangerous in some other way in the event of an accident. The most positive thing with the proposal, however, is that the citizens of the EU now have access to more information. All high-risk businesses must draw up a prevention policy and continuously improve their level of safety and make this publicly available on the Internet. I therefore support this proposal."@en1
