Det er derfor, at Kommissionen, for at give de danske offentlige myndigheder mulighed for at godkende etableringen af en fast forbindelse mellem Danmark og Sverige, hvor der på ingen måde kunne rejses tvivl om overensstemmelse med EF's miljøret, at Kommissionen i hast den 8. august 1991 før færdigbehandlingen af sagen henledte den danske regerings opmærksomhed på de punkter i lovforslaget, som ikke kunne udelukkes at være i modstrid med EF's miljøret.
Therefore, in order to enable the Danish public authorities to authorize the building of a fixed link between Denmark and Sweden, which clearly complies with Community environmental legislation, the Commission tried, as of 8 August 1991, to bring to the attention of the Danish Government those aspects of the draft law then under discussion which at the current stage reached in the examination of the file might involve a violation of that legislation.
