Official Journal C 304 , 02/10/1998 P. 0083


WRITTEN QUESTION E-0345/98 by Amedeo Amadeo (NI) to the Commission (17 February 1998)

Subject: Framework for Community action in the field of water policy

The Commission has drawn up a proposal for a Council Directive establishing a framework for Community action in the field of water policy (COM(97)0049 - 97/0067(SYN)) ((OJ C 184, 17.6.1997, p. 20. )). With reference to Article 12, will the Commission provide wholly clear definitions as regards the substance of the tariffing systems for the various water users, which will have to be laid down by the Member States, given that the present wording of the proposal fails to define key concepts such as recovery of costs, calculation of prices, and so forth?

Joint answer to Written Questions E-0344/98, E-0345/98, E-0346/98, E-0347/98 and E-0348/98 given by Mrs Bjerregaard on behalf of the Commission (18 March 1998)

The Parliament has scheduled its discussions on the Commission's proposal for a Council directive establishing a framework for Community action in the field of water policy ((COM(97)47. COM(97)614. COM(98)76. )) for the March 1998 and April 1998 meetings of the environment committee. The Commission will address the questions raised by the Honourable Member during those meetings.
