"Managing the sustainability of water resources is vital in order to ensure that all ecosystems receive an adequate level of good-quality water so that they can function properly and can provide essential services in terms of food security and quality, health and the economy. The Water Framework Directive of 2000 sets out the aim of achieving an ecological, chemical and quantitative ‘good status’ for European water bodies by 2015. However, the rate of implementation of the directive has been slow and uneven across European countries and regions. Although the main concern should be the implementation of the current legislation in the water sector, there are specific gaps that need to be filled, both in terms of adapting existing legislation to the water priorities and by drafting new legislation in order to address the impact of specific activities or sectors. This should take into consideration the importance of cooperation between the various economic operators and other stakeholders in order to ensure the sustainable management of water resources. I voted in favour, as I consider it necessary to move towards a more effective and integrated water policy."@en1
