11.9. Security of energy supply in the European Union (vote)

- Before the vote on recital C

  Robert Goebbels (PSE). – (FR) Mr President, I wish to table an oral amendment with the intention of changing recital C. It is a matter of substituting the terms, which I will read out in English as that is the only version I have:

… ‘environmental protection’ by ‘environmental sustainability’ …

(FR) I believe these are the recognised terms. The text would then read as follows:

… ‘whereas there are three main objectives for EU energy policy: security of supply, competitiveness and environmental sustainability’.

  President. – Are there any objections to this oral amendment?

(The oral amendment was not accepted)
