Jeg understreger endnu en gang, at jeg forstår, at de østrigske myndigheder og parlamentsmedlemmer og sandsynligvis også de østrigske borgere, da det drejer sig om et spørgsmål, som bekymrer hele Østrig meget, kunne have ønsket sig en endnu større beskyttelse, men jeg mener, at vi med denne overgangsordning trods alt fastholder - lad os tale rent ud - en privilegeret situation af hensyn til miljøbeskyttelsen i Østrig.
I would insist once again that I believe that the Austrian authorities, Members of Parliament, and also, very possibly, citizens – since this is an issue which the whole of Austria is very sensitive to – would have liked even greater protection, but I believe that by means of this transitional system we are managing to maintain, despite everything, a situation of privilege – let us make this very clear – for the sake of Austria’s environmental protection.
