Does the Commission also agree that the driving bans, and the recent blockades, may have a very detrimental
effect on European industry and that this is why it is necessary to establish a network of European freeways for
road transport (E-ways) by analogy with the European freeways for the transport of goods by rail?

If so, does the Commission intend to submit, in the near future, proposals for European freeways for the transport
of goods by road?

Answer given by Mr Kinnock on behalf of the Commission

(28 January 1998)

The Commission is aware of the problems resulting from uncoordinated driving bans affecting road haulage on
trucks throughout the Union as highlighted in the Honourable Member(cid:146)s question and has reported its concerns
to the Council.

The Commission, consequently intends to bring forward a legislative proposal in the spring of this year with the
purpose of setting clear and common rules that should be respected when Member States apply driving bans.

WRITTEN QUESTION P-3932/97

by Se·rgio Ribeiro (GUE/NGL) to the Commission

(4 December 1997)

Subject: Catchment area of the rivers Lis and Sci(cid:231)a (Portugal)/Cohesion Fund

Cleaning up the catchment area for the rivers Lis, Lena, Sci(cid:231)a and others is a high priority in a region with serious
environmental problems.

This has been recognized by the local authorities and central government, and an application has therefore been
submitted  to  the  Cohesion  Fund  for  investment  totalling  Esc  7  billion  to  be  used  to  clean  up  this  complex
hydrological network.

Can the Commission say when the application was submitted, what stage has been reached and if it is possible to
give some indication as to the timetable for evaluating the application and reaching a decision?

Answer given by Mrs Wulf- Mathies on behalf of the Commission

(6 January 1998)

On 20 November 1997 the Commission received a request for part-financing by the Cohesion Fund of the first
phase of an integrated pollution control project for the catchment area of the Lis and Sei(cid:231)a rivers, promoted by
the association of municipalities of Alta Estremadura, in the regions of Pinhal Litoral and Me·dio Tejo (districts of
Leiria and Santare·m).

The application includes several subprojects which involve building or adapting six waste-water treatment plants
and approximately 200 km outfall pipeline before 31 December 1999.

The Commission will examine this application on the basis of the technical and economic assessment of the
project, the amounts available from the Cohesion Fund for Portugal and the priorities defined by the Commission
and the Member State.
