Petitsioon on adresseeritud: Petitionsausschuss des Europäischen Parlaments

The petitioner claims that, as a result of the review of the Fertilisers Regulation, the transposition of the Nitrates Directive has been delayed by several years. In his opinion, however, there are problems with the measurement systems across the EU, as the measuring stations in the Member States do not use the same standards and thus results cannot easily be compared. This also causes competition problems in European agriculture. The petitioner asks how the EU will guarantee the comparability of measurement results across the Member States, whether there is an awareness of the differences among the measuring systems, and whether an EU regulation on measuring systems might lead to comparable results.
