The European Parliament voted to strengthen the common position on a proposal to update legislation dating back to 1988 on the elimination of emissions of certain pollutants into the air from large combustion plants (LCPs).
The draft recommendation drafted by Mrs Ria OOMEN-RUIJTEN (EPP/ED, Nl) shall apply to new LCPs, which will be licensed once the directive takes effect, and to existing ones from 2008 onwards. (Please refer to the previous text).�
