"Within the Europe of Citizens framework, the Commission is attaching great importance to simplifying and clarifying EU law, with the aim of making it more comprehensible and more accessible to citizens, giving them new opportunities and a chance to exercise the specific rights it provides them with in a more effective way. The achievement of this aim will not be possible, however, as long as a situation persists where there are numerous scattered provisions, repeated and often amended in terms of their essential scope, and in many legal acts, from the original legal act up to its most recent amendment, all of which requires an exhaustive search and the comparison of many legal acts in order to identify the positive law. The clarity and transparency of law therefore requires the frequent codification of amended legal acts. Council Directive 85/337/EEC of 27 June 1985 on the assessment of the effects of certain public and private projects on the environment was repeatedly amended in a fundamental way.
In the interests of clarity and transparency, this directive should be codified. I personally believe that the impacts of the project on the environment should be assessed with regard to the interest in protecting human health, enhancing the environment, contributing to quality of life, ensuring the maintenance of species diversity and conserving the reproductive capacity of the environment as the basic source of life."@en1
