on behalf of the ALDE Group. - (FR) Mr President, Members of the Commission, ladies and gentlemen, it is true that a number of Member States have already initiated measures to reduce pesticide-related risks, but trends in pesticide use differ from one country to another.
Hr. formand, kommissærer, mine damer og herrer! Flere medlemsstater er ganske vist begyndt at tage forholdsregler for at begrænse risiciene i forbindelse med pesticider, men tendensen til at anvende pesticider er forskellig fra land til land.
