"Over the years, the most serious industrial accidents deriving from the loss of control of certain dangerous substances – such as those that occurred in Seveso, the Netherlands, France and the United Kingdom – have cost many lives and have caused damage worth billions of euros. In order to reduce the probability of similar incidents and limit their consequences, the European Union has adopted the Seveso III Directive applicable to European establishments using dangerous substances (or mixtures) in sufficient quantities to create a major-accident hazard. With the introduction of this directive, the provisions regarding information on safety are reinforced and, more specifically, the managers of all establishments which come within its scope will be required to notify the competent authority and to devise a major accident prevention policy. While welcoming the introduction of new, stricter rules than those in the recent past regarding inspection of facilities, I would argue it is important for us to emphasise how the new environmental regulation as a whole will imply a significant increase in the administrative burdens of European companies."@en1
