"In a global context in which many materials are becoming increasingly scarce and in which Europe is among the largest importers in a market often dominated by third-country monopolies, it is essential to guarantee secure and competitive supplies for European industry. I think that a European strategy on raw materials can achieve some important goals, such as secure and competitively priced supplies for Europe, more sustainable utilisation of existing resources, and business opportunities for European enterprises. A raw materials strategy can also be a money-making opportunity for Europe, on condition that it does not become yet another burden for enterprises in relation to the environmental legislation in force. In my opinion, an effective strategy must be founded on an integrated approach that incorporates the best of existing European legislation regulating resource efficiency in various sectors.
For this reason, I do not support an excessively prescriptive approach concerning objectives for the management, recycling, retrieval and re-use of raw materials that would impose binding rules and further impact upon the responsibility of producers. Finally, this strategy ought to be an integral part of a policy designed to promote research and innovation, which acts as a stimulus for the competitiveness of Europe’s small and medium-sized enterprises."@en1
