Implementation of the EU water legislation

Part of the text

Rejected

This was a vote on one part of the text — a paragraph, a recital or a block of them — not on the text as a whole.

306 in favour · 354 against · 35 abstained. 695 members voted.

What it asks for, in the Parliament's words

• Calls on the Member States and water providers to systematically use testing for COVID-19 in waste water as an early warning system to support the fight against the pandemic
• Calls on the Commission to revise the quality standards of the Groundwater Directive, improve the homogenisation of standards and reduce the wide range of thresholds within Members States

Quoted from B9-0401/2020, which says more than these lines. Each is a whole paragraph; this site does not rewrite them.
