There is the need to improve the quality of the environment, and that is what we are doing, especially with our work on the IPPC Directive and the proposal for a directive on soil quality, which we shall speak about presently, as well as the need currently facing us to improve Community expertise in this area.
On vaja parandada keskkonnakvaliteeti, ja seda me teeme, eriti oma saastuse kompleksse vältimise ja kontrolli (IPPC) direktiivi puudutava tööga ja mullakvaliteedi direktiivi ettepanekuga, millest me hakkame praegu rääkima, samuti ka eelseisvast vajadusest tõhustada ühenduse pädevust sellel alal.
