Environment Policy

Environment Policy
  Given policy competence in the Single European Act (SEA), but a policy concern since 1972 through a series of five-year action programmes. The main principles are that the polluter must pay the costs of environmental rehabilitation, prevention rather than cure, and the environment taken into account in all EC policy areas. The 1993 programme also emphasized a commitment to sustainable development.
