11 amendments...
Amendment 30 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 2 a (new) (2a) The results of the Commission’s general stakeholder consultation (industry, importers, consumers associations, trade unions) on the possible development of an EU regulation on origin marking indicate that in some Member States European consumers’ perception of the relevance of origin marking for their information, in relation to safety and social and environmental concerns, is generally high;
Amendment 32 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 2 b (new) (2b) In the Lisbon Agenda, the EU set itself the objective of strengthening the European economy by, inter alia, improving the competitiveness of the European industry in the world economy and the EU2020 strategy is bound to build on this need for improving competitiveness; for certain categories of consumer goods, competitiveness may lie in the fact that their production in the EU is associated with a reputation for quality and high production standards; whereas European companies may already use origin-marking on a voluntary basis where it is commercially advantageous for them.

Amendment 244 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 41 Member States should retain the right, depending on local practical conditions and circumstances, to lay down rules in respect of the provision of information concerning non-prepacked foods. Although in such cases the consumer demand for other information is limited, information on potential allergens is considered very important. Evidence suggests that most food allergy incidents can be traced back to non-prepacked food. Therefore such information should always be provided to the consumer. 'Non-prepacked food' refers to all food which is offered to the final consumer without packaging or is packed in direct contact with the final consumer.

Motion for a resolution Paragraph 5 a (new) 5 a. The European Parliament urges the Commission to initiate a review and an update of both the habitat directive (92/43/EEG) and the bird directive (79/409/EEG). Those two directives are important tools in maintaining and strengthening biodiversity. The species listed in those directives have not been reviewed since their implementation, regardless of the dynamic changes in those ecosystems. This makes it impossible for species with changed protection status to enter the lists, at the same time creating unnecessary protection for non-endangered species.

Amendment 45 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 6 a (new) (6a) Since the most efficient way to cease or phase out the emissions, discharges and losses of those priority hazardous substances that are still manufactured in or imported into the union is to adopt EU measures, the Commission should prepare legislative proposals for including the substances in the REACH candidate list under Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006 concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH), establishing a European Chemicals Agency, amending Directive 1999/45/EC and repealing Council Regulation (EEC) No 793/93 and Commission Regulation (EC) No 1488/94 as well as Council Directive 76/769/EEC and Commission Directives 91/155/EEC, 93/67/EEC, 93/105/EC and 2000/21/EC1, or for restricting the manufacture, marketing and use of the substances on their own or in mixtures or articles, as appropriate. For priority substances, EU measures might also be the most cost- efficient and the Commission should prepare legislative proposals ensuring, as appropriate, the inclusion of the substance on the REACH candidate list or the restriction of the manufacture, marketing and use. _____________________ 1 OJ L 396, 30.12.2006, p. 1.
Amendment 50 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 8 a (new) (8a) A weakness with quality standards for separate substances is that it is the combined effect of the substances present in the environment that is important for the organisms exposed to the substances. The combined effect of the substances in the environment can be more severe than what is indicated by the ratio of the concentration of a specific substance to a quality standard. The Commission should explore the possibilities to enhance Directive 2000/60/EC so that combination effects in the aquatic environment could be addressed.
Amendment 66 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 21 (21) Furthermore, in order to improve the information basis for future identification of priority substances, in particular as regards emerging pollutants, the power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union should be delegated to the Commission in respect of the drawing up of a watch list. It is of particular importance that the Commission carry out appropriate consultations with all relevant stakeholders during its preparatory work, including at expert level.

Proposal for a directive Article 2 – point 3 a (new) Directive 2008/105/EC Article 7 – paragraphs 2 a, 2 b, 2 c and 2 d (new) 3a. The following paragraphs are added to Article 7: ‘2a. For priority hazardous substances included in Annex X of Directive 2000/60/EC and still being manufactured in or being imported into the EU, the Commission shall within 18 months of their inclusion prepare legislative proposals, ensuring the phasing out of the manufacture, marketing and use, through, inter alia, the authorisation or restriction of the manufacture, placing on the market and use within Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, approval of active substances within the plant protection products regulation or biocides regulation, or other relevant measures. 2b. For priority substances included in Annex X of Directive 2000/60/EC and still being manufactured in or being imported into the EU and for which adequate control of risks to the aquatic environment is not achieved, the Commission shall within 18 months of their inclusion prepare legislative proposals ensuring the progressive reduction of pollution, as appropriate, through, inter alia, the authorisation or restriction of the manufacture, placing on the market and use within Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, approval of active substances within Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 or Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2012 concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products1, or other relevant measures. 2c. The Commission shall carry out a review by 1 December 2013 with a view to proposing amendments, as appropriate, for further joint action and strengthening of the links between Directive 2000/60/EC and other legislative acts relevant for the protection of the aquatic environment. 2d. The Commission shall carry out a review by 1 December 2013 with a view to proposing amendments to this Directive, as appropriate, for addressing the risks posed by combination effects.’ _____________________ 1 OJ L 167, 27.6.2012, p. 1

Proposal for a decision Annex 1 – point 45 45. The failure to fully implement existing policy is preventing the EU from achieving adequate air and water quality standards. The EU will update targets in line with latest science and more actively seek to ensure synergies with other policy objectives in areas such as climate change, biodiversity and the marine and terrestrial environment. For example, reducing certain air pollutants, including actions to reduce SO2 and SLCP, can make an important contribution to climate mitigation and improving air quality. Further work in this direction will be informed by a comprehensive review of EU air quality legislation, Directive 2005/33/EC and 1999/32/EC, and the Blueprint to Safeguard Europe's Water Resources.

Proposal for a directive Recital 29 (29) Council Directive 89/622/EEC of 13 November 1989 on the approximation of the laws, regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States concerning the labelling of tobacco products and the prohibition of the marketing of certain types of tobacco for oral use prohibited the sale in the Member States of certain types of tobacco for oral use. Directive 2001/37/EC confirmed this prohibition. Article 151 of the Act of Accession of Austria, Finland and Sweden grants the Kingdom of Sweden derogation from this prohibition . The prohibition of the sale of oral tobacco should be maintained in order to prevent the introduction to the internal market of a product that is addictive, has adverse health effects and is attractive to young people. As tobacco for oral use is prohibited to be placed on the internal market, oral tobacco products shall be exempted from the application of this Directive, except for Article 15. For other smokeless tobacco products that are not produced for the mass market, a strict labelling and ingredients regulation is considered sufficient to contain market expansion beyond their traditional use.
