The European Commission welcomed the first-reading agreement between the European Parliament and the Council on the establishment of a European Release and Transfer Register (PRTR), as required by a UN protocol, 6 July 2005. The European PRTR was planned to be Internet-based and would hold a variety of data on industrial pollution, providing the public with information about the quality of the environment in their neighbourhoods and elsewhere in Europe. It would be a more comprehensive version of the award-winning European Pollutant Emission Register (EPER), launched in February 2004. |
