Details

The rapporteur, Mr Papayannakis (GUE/NGL, GR), presented the main amendments, one of which proposed a threshold of 100 000 (rather than 250 000) inhabitants for the definition of ‘agglomeration’ as a sufficient concentration for the assessment and management of air quality. Commissioner Bjerregaard declared that of the 23 amendments tabled by Parliament at second reading she was prepared to accept ten in full (Amendments Nos 6, 11, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22) and two in part (Amendments Nos 7 and 8). However, she opposed extending the system of monitoring to include polluted zones below the 250 000 inhabitants threshold, as this would be too expensive.

Details

Mr PAPAYANNAKIS pointed out that the aim of this proposal was to determine a common strategy for the assessment of substances present in the air. It was a framework directive that would be followed by a number of implementing directives. Since these directives would only cover six substances, the rapporteur felt that another list should be drawn up by the year 2000for a whole range of dangerous substances that were currently being studied. Of the amendments tabled, one called for more information in relation to the public; another related to the regular revision of the limit values. When presenting his report on a reciprocal exchange of information from networks and stations measuring ambient air pollution within the Member States, Mrs POLLACK highlighted the amendment aimed at applying the provisions in small towns, which was not included in the text. Mrs BJERREGAARD stated that she could take over, in full or in principle, 24 of the 39 amendments: Amendments Nos 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13 to 15, 17 to 20, 24 to 26, 28, 29, 31 to 36. As regards Mrs Pollack’s report, she could take over Amendments Nos 3, 6, 7, 8, 11, 18 and 19; she could also take over Amendments Nos 2, 9 and 10 in part. However, she rejected Amendments Nos 5, 12, 13, 14, 16 and 17.

   ESC - Economic and Social Committee: opinion, report
Details

The ESC endorsed the thrust of the proposal for a directive and the proposed rules, subject to the following proposed changes. It felt that the dangers and potential damage of atmospheric pollution made the issue and implementation of this directive a matter of urgency. It was pleased to note that the proposal for a directive provided for a programme for the adoption of air quality objectives at European level. It had recently called for a programme of this kind in its Opinion on the Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control Directive. It regretted that there was no reference in the draft Directive to the problems of cross-border atmospheric pollution. This applied particularly to cross-border atmospheric pollution within the European Union. Where bilateral or multilateral agreements existed on information, compensation or arbitration procedures, they should be applied in relation to the implementation of the draft Directive too. The Union ’s bodies should also work for the conclusion of such agreements. It might be appropriate for the information referred to in Article 3 to be exchanged between Member States as well as communicated to the Commission. It would also be right to require the Member States to make such communications public, subject to the relevant European and national laws. The extent to which the programme for the establishment of quality objectives provided for in the framework directive was compatible with the existing European ground-level concentration limits and the progress achieved in reducing concentrations of individual pollutants needed particular study. Article 5(2) of the draft was illogical: establishing which areas had poor or improving air quality required measurement. Initial measurements should therefore also be required outside the areas listed in Article 5(2). Subsequent measurements could then, in accordance with the proposal, be restricted. The Member States should be empowered and required to work for an improvement in air quality even where no Community limit values as yet existed. Such measures could be based on WHO values. In Article 7(3)(b) the proposal restricted itself to requiring that plans and programmes for the implementation of quality objectives be made available to the public. Participation in the preparation of these programmes and in the implementation of the air quality objectives in the Member States could also be of particular interest to the public. The ESC proposed that, in addition to the advisory committee of official representatives of the Member States, a ‘committee of experts’ be set up. Annex 1: the ESC suggested that carbon monoxide and benzene be included in the list for action in the short-term (31 December 1996) and thus that these pollutants be moved from Annex 1(2) to 1(1).

    • date: 1995-02-22T00:00:00 docs: url: https://dm.eesc.europa.eu/EESCDocumentSearch/Pages/redresults.aspx?k=(documenttype:AC)(documentnumber:0185)(documentyear:1995)(documentlanguage:EN) title: CES0185/1995 url: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/JOHtml.do?uri=OJ:C:1995:110:SOM:EN:HTML title: OJ C 110 02.05.1995, p. 0005 summary: The ESC endorsed the thrust of the proposal for a directive and the proposed rules, subject to the following proposed changes. It felt that the dangers and potential damage of atmospheric pollution made the issue and implementation of this directive a matter of urgency. It was pleased to note that the proposal for a directive provided for a programme for the adoption of air quality objectives at European level. It had recently called for a programme of this kind in its Opinion on the Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control Directive. It regretted that there was no reference in the draft Directive to the problems of cross-border atmospheric pollution. This applied particularly to cross-border atmospheric pollution within the European Union. Where bilateral or multilateral agreements existed on information, compensation or arbitration procedures, they should be applied in relation to the implementation of the draft Directive too. The Union ’s bodies should also work for the conclusion of such agreements. It might be appropriate for the information referred to in Article 3 to be exchanged between Member States as well as communicated to the Commission. It would also be right to require the Member States to make such communications public, subject to the relevant European and national laws. The extent to which the programme for the establishment of quality objectives provided for in the framework directive was compatible with the existing European ground-level concentration limits and the progress achieved in reducing concentrations of individual pollutants needed particular study. Article 5(2) of the draft was illogical: establishing which areas had poor or improving air quality required measurement. Initial measurements should therefore also be required outside the areas listed in Article 5(2). Subsequent measurements could then, in accordance with the proposal, be restricted. The Member States should be empowered and required to work for an improvement in air quality even where no Community limit values as yet existed. Such measures could be based on WHO values. In Article 7(3)(b) the proposal restricted itself to requiring that plans and programmes for the implementation of quality objectives be made available to the public. Participation in the preparation of these programmes and in the implementation of the air quality objectives in the Member States could also be of particular interest to the public. The ESC proposed that, in addition to the advisory committee of official representatives of the Member States, a ‘committee of experts’ be set up. Annex 1: the ESC suggested that carbon monoxide and benzene be included in the list for action in the short-term (31 December 1996) and thus that these pollutants be moved from Annex 1(2) to 1(1). type: Economic and Social Committee: opinion, report body: ESC

It was a framework directive that would be followed by a number of implementing directives. Since these directives would only cover six substances, the rapporteur felt that another list should be drawn up by the year 2000for a whole range of dangerous substances that were currently being studied. Of the amendments tabled, one called for more information in relation to the public; another related to the regular revision of the limit values. When presenting his report on a reciprocal exchange of information from networks and stations measuring ambient air pollution within the Member States, Mrs POLLACK highlighted the amendment aimed at applying the provisions in small towns, which was not included in the text. Mrs BJERREGAARD stated that she could take over, in full or in principle, 24 of the 39 amendments: Amendments Nos 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13 to 15, 17 to 20, 24 to 26, 28, 29, 31 to 36. As regards Mrs Pollack’s report, she could take over Amendments Nos 3, 6, 7, 8, 11, 18 and 19; she could also take over Amendments Nos 2, 9 and 10 in part. However, she rejected Amendments Nos 5, 12, 13, 14, 16 and 17.

Commissioner Bjerregaard declared that of the 23 amendments tabled by Parliament at second reading she was prepared to accept ten in full (Amendments Nos 6, 11, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22) and two in part (Amendments Nos 7 and 8). However, she opposed extending the system of monitoring to include polluted zones below the 250 000 inhabitants threshold, as this would be too expensive.
