lpv:translated text	". As I said at first reading when we voted on this proposal for a directive (14 May 2003), it is extremely important that we adopt a global Community system for preventing and remedying environmental damage, including water pollution, damage to biodiversity and soil contamination, which poses a serious risk to human health. After several years of debate and repeated environmental disasters, we have reached a crucial point for effectively preventing and remedying environmental damage; in other words, a real watershed. I welcome the agreement reached in Conciliation on a financial guarantee (the compromise reached with the Council lays down that, six years after the Directive’s entry into force, the Commission will present a report on the situation concerning the mandatory financial security instruments). I also welcome the gradual approach and the exclusion of low-risk activities. In the planned future revision, the European Commission must pay particular attention to the differences between levels of liability in the various Member States without overlooking the need closely to observe the principles of subsidiarity and of proportionality as regards the action of the Member States. This common position improves on the legal framework for environmental protection. I therefore voted in favour."@en1
