"I voted in favour of the resolution on the implementation of EU water legislation. Europe as a whole extracts only around 13 per cent of its total available water, but the geographic distribution of resources is very uneven and many European countries and regions are subject to heavy water stress. There can be no ‘one size fits all’ solution: the regional and local dimension should be strengthened, local stakeholders and communities should be involved in a participatory process at all stages of policy design and implementation, and the Commission should foster capacity building and design clear guidelines for implementation. I support the position of the rapporteur that regional water consumption data must be considered when setting new rules. The biggest water consumers by far are the energy production and agriculture sectors. Here, we can find a huge potential to increase the efficiency of water consumption. It is important to stress that all existing rules need to be fully implemented in the EU Member States."@en1
