lpv:spoken text	"The Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution aims to protect the environment against air pollutants. Air pollutants have the potential to travel several thousand kilometres before being deposited. The amended Protocol updates implementation requirements for several substances, including PCDD/PCDF emissions from several sources. PCBs will be added to the list of substances affected by the total annual emission restrictions. Flexible timeframes will be provided for parties with an economy in transition regarding the application of emission limit values and for the choice of the reference year for the total annual emissions. A new directive setting updated national emission ceilings for certain atmospheric pollutants and annual national emission inventories will deal with emissions of POPs, including PAHs, PCDD/PCDF, HCB and PCBs. Ratifying this amendment aims to provide a higher level of protection of human health and preserve the environment against transboundary air pollution."@en1
