Au travers de notre résolution, le Parlement formule un message clair et ambitieux, d’abord pour une mise en œuvre complète de la législation existante, mais également pour une évolution de la législation sur de nombreux aspects. Des mesures fortes pour la santé et l’environnement sont nécessaires et nous devons absolument prendre nos responsabilités en la matière. Nous voulons que ce soit la santé qui passe avant les intérêts économiques de certaines industries. Qu’est-ce qu’une chimie durable? Il faut adopter des critères précis pour la définir, sans quoi la chimie durable ne sera qu’un concept que les industries utiliseront pour « Le coût, aujourd’hui, de l’industrie chimique par rapport à la santé, c’est 160 milliards d’euros par an. Si ces coûts étaient pris en charge par l’industrie, je peux vous assurer que le remplacement par des substances alternatives irait beaucoup plus vite. C’est donc c’est vers cela que nous devons nous diriger.

Alors la Commission – parce que nous avons bénéficié de certaines fuites – veut renforcer le cadre réglementaire, c’est une bonne nouvelle. Elle vise REACH, bien évidemment, en particulier, avec notamment une approche groupée pour les substances similaires afin d’accélérer l’évaluation des risques par notre Agence européenne des produits chimiques. Une petite chose à cet égard: cette logique par famille doit aussi s’appliquer à la procédure de restriction pour les substances dangereuses, les phtalates, pour ne citer qu’un exemple, interdits dans les jouets pour enfants, autorisés ailleurs. Sont envisagés aussi par la Commission, nous dit-on, de nouveaux critères pour la gestion des risques. La législation européenne doit bien évidemment protéger contre les perturbateurs endocriniens, contre les neurotoxiques. Je pense ici aux très nombreux travailleurs qui, au quotidien, sont exposés aux solvants ou aux métaux lourds. Enfin, il est essentiel d’agir contre les PFAS, ces composés perfluorés que l’on retrouve dans les mousses, dans les poêles Téflon – pour ne pas les nommer –, dans les emballages alimentaires. Les PFAS, parce que mobiles, parce que persistants, très persistants, sont un véritable danger pour notre santé. L’Union européenne doit avancer, Monsieur le Commissaire, avec un

Se vogliamo infatti risultati concreti per l'ambiente non possiamo certamente demonizzare un settore come la chimica – un'eccellenza a livello europeo e italiano e soprattutto un settore già avanzato in materia di sostenibilità – gravandolo di ulteriori oneri insostenibili. Senza un approccio pragmatico, infatti, rischiamo di colpire la chimica europea per poi trovarci a importare le stesse produzioni da fuori dell'Europa, proprio da dove gli standard che noi imponiamo non sono garantiti. È quindi un atteggiamento miope e dannoso per i lavoratori e le nostre imprese. Non dimentichiamo poi l'importanza della rilocalizzazione in Europa delle imprese chimiche e delle loro produzioni, obiettivo da perseguire non certamente imponendo finte tasse  Senza pragmatismo e bilanciamento rischiamo quindi solo di penalizzare un settore strategico per tutta l'Europa, un settore che invece andrebbe sostenuto in modo attivo nella sua transizione verso una produzione ancora più sostenibile.

Die Europäische Kommission muss eine Nulltoleranzstrategie gegenüber giftigen Chemikalien in der Umwelt fahren. Erst diese Woche, Herr Kommissar, wurden wieder neue Zahlen in Deutschland bekannt: Jedes fünfte Kind – und das ist alarmierend – ist durch Chemikalien in Alltagsgegenständen stark belastet. Die Belastung ist so hoch, dass bei jedem fünften Kind eine langfristige Schädigung nicht ausgeschlossen werden kann. Insbesondere hormonverändernde Chemikalien wie Bisphenol A und Co. und Ewigkeitschemikalien wie PFAS müssen als Gruppe verboten werden.  Ambitionierte Chemiepolitik schützt aber nicht nur unsere Kinder. Sie ist auch eine Chance für eine europäische Industrie, die die Zukunft nicht verschläft. Saubere Chemie in Europa kann nicht nur eine saubere Umwelt für Mensch und Natur auf den Weg bringen, sondern auch 1,2 Millionen zukunftsfähige Chemiejobs stabilisieren. Herr Kommissar, wir erwarten eine ambitionierte Strategie von Ihnen.

There are some extremely problematic points, among which the juridical nightmare of a regulation that wants to change another regulation like the CoP and occupational safety – this is an extremely complex and expensive burden on the effects of combined or multiple chemicals which is very difficult to handle. The introduction of the concept of ‘no data, no market’ is very dangerous for a lot of smaller companies and the impossibility of finding better alternatives to banned substances in a short time. I’m a strong believer in the concept of banning dangerous substances, but the direction this regulation has taken will create massive competitive disadvantages for all EU companies, especially the small ones. Again, the focus is on the companies which are already heavily regulated, and nothing is said about what comes out of private homes.

Even though the EU has some decent legislation in place to protect its citizens against exposure to the most dangerous and hazardous chemicals, those chemicals are still exported to other parts of the world. I am glad that the Commissioner has promised us a zero—pollution ambition for a toxic—free environment. With this resolution, the European Parliament is giving the Commission some homework: to ensure that the Chemical strategy for sustainability lives up to our expectations. We have no time to waste. I urge you, Commissioner, to deliver the toxic—free world we all desperately need and deserve.

My objective with this strategy is very clear: it’s to set out a vision for a comprehensive framework and a very concrete roadmap for action, where all parties should work together. The COVID-19 crisis has clearly increased the urgency to step up action in the chemicals area. We have to ensure the protection of our citizens, support the socio-economic recovery of European industry and also promote our strategic autonomy for those chemicals which are important to society and health. This strategy will be delivered as the very first step towards a zero—pollution ambition for a toxic-free environment, with the action plan to follow in 2021. It will also complement other objectives under the Green Deal, notably to protect biodiversity and to move towards climate neutrality – at the end of the day, a huge contribution to a circular economy. The strategy will also support other priorities of the European Commission, such as the digital transition strengthening the European Union’s competitiveness, fighting cancer, and many others. Its horizontal character makes it so relevant, and we will need joint efforts and the constructive involvement of all stakeholders to implement it and make it a success on the ground. I am counting on your support in this regard and I look forward to continuing the close cooperation with you on this important policy.

Vidare bör kommissionen också se till att kemikalier som finns i produkter eller används i arbetet måste riskbedömas tillsammans med fackliga representanter och redovisas på ett lättillgängligt sätt för arbetstagarna. För att skydda arbetstagares hälsa och säkerhet bör de på regelbunden basis få en genomgång om hanteringen av kemikalier. Det är egentligen ganska självklart. Målsättning måste vara en bra och hälsosam arbetsmiljö för alla som arbetar. En undermålig arbetsmiljö får aldrig vara en konkurrensfördel. Här måste EU gå i bräschen och säkerställa att företag som utsätter arbetstagare för livsfara inte kommer undan.

V októbri bude prijatá nová európska iniciatíva zameraná na inklúziu Rómov do roku 2030. Je potrebné, aby táto iniciatíva kládla oveľa väčší dôraz na výsledky a efektivitu vynakladaných finančných prostriedkov. My potrebujeme vidieť hmatateľné výsledky.  Aby sa zamerala na tie členské krajiny, kde v dôsledku absencie politickej vôle  dochádza k makroekonomickým problémom a  prehlbovaniu regionálnych rozdielov. Zamerať sa musíme na krajiny s väčšou populáciou rómskou, kde Rómovia v 21. storočí žijú v podmienkach, ktoré poznáme z afrického kontinentu, bez vodovodu či kanalizácie.  Dôsledný monitoring a aktívna účasť Rómov na rozhodovacích procesoch sa musí stať nevyhnutnou súčasťou všetkých aktivít. Rómovia sú občanmi Európskej Únie, sú nevyužitým potenciálom, tak ľudským, ako aj ekonomickým. Treba si priznať, že Rómovia v  Európe taktiež čelia  inštitucionálnemu rasizmu. Medzi obeťami sú, žiaľ, aj deti.  Mňa osobne ako Róma mrzí a bolo to pre mňa v podstate naozaj sklamaním zistiť, že niektoré politické frakcie Európskeho parlamentu, ktoré majú plné ústa ľudsko-právnej agendy zablokovali spoločnú rezolúciu, ktorá mohla vzísť z tejto debaty. Ak išlo o porušovanie práva Afroameričanov v Spojených štátoch amerických, tam teda neváhali a podobnú rezolúciu prijali. Práve nečinnosť a neschopnosť pomenovať veci tak, ako sú, vedie k nárastu extrémizmu a rasizmu, čoho sme svedkami, žiaľ, aj u nás v Európe.

Covid-19-pandemin har tydligt blottlagt och förvärrat svagheterna i våra samhällen. En av svagheterna var just att situationen för redan utsatta grupper blev än värre. Detta gäller utsatta grupper i allmänhet och romer i synnerhet. Det räcker nu. Diskriminering måste bekämpas och utrotas. I demokratiska, fria och jämlika samhällen finns det inget utrymme för diskriminering. Vad vi har gjort hittills är inte tillräckligt. Jag tycker självklart att det är viktigt med strategier, men vi behöver mätbara mål. Vi behöver gå från ord till handling, och vi behöver gå från planering till implementering.

I am the rapporteur of the House on this subject. In my current report, we express clearly our demands on the future EU-Romani policy and identify the real barriers to the inclusion of Romani people. A new approach is needed. We must put the fight against anti-gypsism and social exclusion first. Equal participation of Romani people must be achieved at all levels of government through binding targets and legislation at national, regional and local level. An adequate budget must be dedicated to the implementation of the next Romani framework. I am a Sinto, the son of a Holocaust survivor who lost six aunts and uncles in the Holocaust. I know how racism feels and I don’t want anyone to endure what me and my people have to endure on a daily basis. Unfortunately, this House had to witness racist speeches, Mr Dzhambazki, Mr Uhrík, please hold on for a moment and put your feet in our shoes and ask yourself how it feels facing racism, being degraded, insulted and beaten.  We have not only COVID-19 in Europe, but a pandemic that is older and even more dangerous: racism. We are finally prepared to confront this reality and correct this injustice.

Pochodzę z regionu Polski, gdzie od lat żyją i działają nasi bracia Romowie. Tu zdecydowano się na otwarte odwoływanie do kultury cygańskiej, na kultywowanie tradycji artystycznego taboru rodów Wajsów, Krzyżanowskich, Korzeniowskich, Siwaków, Jaworskich, Zielińskich. Tu mieszkała najwybitniejsza poetka romska Papusza, tu odbyło się trzydzieści edycji Międzynarodowych Spotkań Zespołów Cygańskich „Romane Dyvesa” z bogatym programem artystycznym stworzonym przez wybitnego romskiego artystę, kompozytora i poetę Edwarda Dębickiego, który obchodził jubileusz 65-lecia twórczości artystycznej. Tutaj dzięki tworzeniu i upowszechnianiu kultury romskiej ta grupa etniczna cieszy się należnym szacunkiem i uznaniem. Jestem przekonana, że twórcza realizacja programów dotyczących innych obszarów aktywności społecznej poparta gruntowną wiedzą o tej grupie etnicznej stanowi płaszczyznę działań na rzecz Romów we współczesnej Europie. Chodzi więc o to, by nie były to działania ślepo integrujące Romów ze społecznościami poszczególnych krajów. Musimy zachować i uszanować ich odrębność i kulturę. Wsłuchajmy się zatem też w ich głos!

Reproductive rights are so important for Traveller and Roma women because they face such exclusion and discrimination in many of our Member States. In Bulgaria, within maternity hospitals, Roma women are being segregated and receiving inferior treatment. In Hungary, in other countries, not been able to get reparations for forced sterilisation, and so on. In my own country, Ireland, anti—Traveller sentiment is broadly acceptable, which means that state money for Traveller housing is not spent, the Traveller Health Strategy has not been implemented in 10 years, and the Traveller Health Committee has not met in 10 years.  So, we can have all the strategies we like, but we really need implementation if we are to achieve equality.

Paní předsedající, kladu si otázku, proč stále ještě přetrvává tato situace, kdy Romové žijí v ghettech, kdy stále ještě je mezi nimi velká chudoba, nezaměstnanost. Myslím, že ke změně musí přispět obě strany, jak společnost, tak Romové. A já chci poděkovat kolegovi Peteru Pollákovi, který je také zástupcem romského etnika a je velmi aktivní. Je si vědom této odpovědnosti.  Myslím si, že klíčem k tomu, aby byl roztržen ten řetěz reprodukce chudoby, je vzdělání. Známe příklady mladých lidí, kteří získali kvalitní vzdělání, protože měli motivaci, ale měli také podporu a tu podporu potřebují od společnosti. Musíme vyloučit rasismus a podpořit jejich ambice, motivaci. K tomu všemu může pomoci také Evropská unie, ale musí být aktivní i členské státy. Kvalitní vzdělání, podpora rodičů, aby měli zaměstnání, aby měli práci, aby byli aktivní. Myslím si, že to všechno je cesta k tomu, jak rozbít tu situaci vyloučení a pomoci k jejich integraci a inkluzi.

Gospa predsedujoča! Krepitev vključevanja Romov v Evropi ni odgovornost zgolj držav in lokalnih skupnosti, ampak mora biti skrb celotne Evropske unije.  Dejstvo, da 80 % Romov v Evropski uniji živi pod pragom revščine in da ni napredka pri odpravi strukturne diskriminacije potrjuje to, da resnično potrebujemo usklajen okvir, in to evropski, za vključevanje Romov. Dosedanji je dosegel svoje in je pravzaprav to vprašanje samo dvignil na politični agendi posameznih držav, zdaj pa potrebujemo drugačen pristop.  Najprej, torej prvič, moramo razumeti raznolikost znotraj romske skupnosti glede na geografsko in družbeno okolje in problem večkratne diskriminacije Romov. Prav tako je potrebno izboljšati socialno-ekonomski položaj Romov glede zaposlovanja, izobraževanja, nastanitve, zdravstvene oskrbe in se ob tem boriti proti enačenju tega položaja z romsko kulturo ali antigipsizmom.  In končno, Rome je potrebno vključiti v vse faze nacionalnih strategij, pri slovenskih bi omenil romske pomočnike, klub mladih univerzitetno izobraženih Romov, in romske svetnike.

Г-жо Председател, на първо място Ви правя забележка за поведението на колегите от тази част на залата, които си позволяват да отправят недопустими забележки към членове на Европейския парламент. Санкционирайте ги, или аз ще поискам извинение и от тях, и от Вас. Това е първо, не спазвате Правилника. Второ, колеги, част от вас се упражняват да казват, че в България имало дискриминация. Честно казано не бих коментирал това, защото повечето от вас не знаят къде е България на картата, нямате никаква представа за какво говорите, говорите наизуст, както обикновено. Но искам да ви покажа всеки един от вас и да ви поканя: елате в България да ви покажа как се живее в едно малко населено място, където възрастни хора са тормозени непрекъснато от битова етническа престъпност. Елате да видите тези, които защитавате, елате да видите какви неща говорите и докажете и покажете какво правите наистина. И сега, понеже си чух името тука от някои колеги: колега, вместо да ми клатите глава нагоре-надолу, кажете ясно, като мъж, станете и кажете: обвинявате ли ме в нещо? Защото ако ме обвинявате в нещо, ще Ви дам възможност да докажете в съда своите обвинения. Ако не го направите, то това би било много страхливо и много позорно. Трябва да се срамувате!

Madam President, dear colleagues, well, we have failed our Roma citizens. We have failed collectively as Member States and as EU institutions. After one decade of Roma strategies, please remember only one figure: every third Roma child lives in a home where someone went to bed hungry at least once in the previous month. Denying this will not help. Ancient Greeks told us ‘to err is human, but to persist is diabolical’. The European Union can provide the necessary encouragement, structure and coordination to the Member States to move away from the institutional and political inaction. In Central and Eastern Europe, we need to give the highest priority to address hunger, extreme poverty and severe housing deprivation among Roma. The second most endorsed policy should be education strategies for Roma, including vocational training and adult learning. The third would be better access to the labour market. In all our societies, we need to do more to fight discrimination, to inform the public about the vulnerability of Roma, to reduce prejudices – all this is about education.

The new strategic EU framework will promote the effective equality, inclusion and participation of Roma. It will work to combat and prevent anti—Gypsyism and discrimination, to reduce poverty and exclusion and to promote Roma participation by empowerment, cooperation and trust.  It would also be essential to increase effective access of Roma to: quality, mainstream, inclusive education; quality and sustainable employment; quality health care; and adequate desegregated housing and essential services. It is time to close the socio-economic gap between Roma and non-Roma.  With this in mind, I welcome that the German EU Presidency has placed Roma equality, inclusion and participation, on its agenda. I again thank Chancellor Merkel for making her commitment to equality, strongly and clearly in the Presidency inauguration speech here yesterday. And, of course, I also count on the strong support of Parliament in the work ahead of us.
