"Mr President, the quality of drinking water cannot be taken lightly. As a doctor, for many years I have been monitoring how laboratories have been finding that water for daily use is indirectly enriched with hormones which are hazardous to human health, and particularly to fertility in women and men.
This finding is also explicitly stated in the report on which we voted, and which I supported, for which I congratulate my colleague, Mr Seeber. In its resolution, Parliament calls upon the Commission to continue to monitor this issue. We note that residues of antibiotics, other drugs and hormones from birth control pills are found in the water.
Permitting the pollution of water by the presence of hormones is a criminal act. The European Commission should ensure that controls be intensified, thus ensuring that substances that not only pollute the water and endanger health, but also have a direct effect on the worsening demographic situation, are eliminated from our water."@en1
