===Record of Parliamentary Votes===
*Voted in favour of the directive on "establishing a framework for Community action in the field of water policy" (A5-0027/2000). The directive covers all water management aspects in order to achieve a 'good status' of all waters by 2015.<ref>Friends of the Earth, [http://www.foeeurope.org/euvotewatch/support_docs/learnmore.php#water EU Vote Watch], accessed 02 February 2009.</ref>
*Voted against the directive on "national emission ceilings for certain atmospheric pollutants" (A5-0063/2000). The amendment allows setting less ambitious national emission ceilings for sulphur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx), ammonia (NH3) and volatile organic compounds (VOC), which would result in more damage to human health and the environment.<ref>Friends of the Earth, [http://www.foeeurope.org/euvotewatch/support_docs/learnmore.php#air EU Vote Watch], accessed 02 February 2009.</ref>
*Voted in favour of the Commission White Paper on "Strategy for a future Chemicals Policy" (A5-0356/2001). The amendment helps avoid the necessary precautionary approach towards some chemical substances that are not proven to be completely safe.<ref>Friends of the Earth, [http://www.foeeurope.org/euvotewatch/support_docs/learnmore.php#chemicals EU Vote Watch], accessed 02 February 2009.</ref>
*Voted in favour of the report on "Community guidelines for the development of the trans-European transport network" (A5-0135/2002). The Trans-European Network of Transport (TEN-T) is a network of so-called 'transport corridors' through Europe. This amendment calls for a full Strategic Environmental Assessment of these transport corridors and calls on the Commission to improve methods for analysing the environmental and economic impact of the TEN-T.<ref>Friends of the Earth, [http://www.foeeurope.org/euvotewatch/support_docs/learnmore.php#transport EU Vote Watch], accessed 02 February 2009.</ref>
*Voted in favour of the regulation concerning "traceability and labelling of genetically modified organisms and traceability of food and feed products produced from genetically modified organisms" (A5-0229/2002). The amendment allows customers the right to choose GM free food.<ref>Friends of the Earth, [http://www.foeeurope.org/euvotewatch/support_docs/learnmore.php#gmos EU Vote Watch], accessed 02 February 2009.</ref>
*Voted in favour of the report towards a "thematic strategy on the sustainable use of pesticides" (A5-0061/2003). The amendment proposes to ban or severely restrict use of pesticides in areas around sources of drinking water and nature protected zones.<ref>Friends of the Earth, [http://www.foeeurope.org/euvotewatch/support_docs/learnmore.php#pesticides EU Vote Watch], accessed 02 February 2009.</ref>
*Voted in favour of the directive on restructuring the "Community framework for the taxation of energy products and electricity" (A5-0302/2003). The amendment aims at giving tax benefits to environmentally friendly sources of energy, which would make them cheaper and more competitive to conventional (more polluting) sources of energy. It also gives tax benefits to environmentally friendly uses of energy for transport, for instance trains.<ref>Friends of the Earth, [http://www.foeeurope.org/euvotewatch/support_docs/learnmore.php#tax EU Vote Watch], accessed 02 February 2009.</ref> Rejected due to lack of absolute majority.
*Voted in favour of the amendment on Bulgaria’s progress towards accession (A5-0105/2004). The report objects to extending the life of the nuclear power stations in Bulgaria.<ref>Friends of the Earth, [http://www.foeeurope.org/euvotewatch/support_docs/learnmore.php#nuclear EU Vote Watch], accessed 02 February 2009.</ref>
