Hvis det forholder sig således - og Deres svar synes at antyde, at stater, der er medlemmer af Den Europæiske Union ville få tidligere underretning og give samtykke til skibsladninger, der blev transporteret ad større eller mindre ruter langs deres kyster - kan De så bekræfte, at alle medlemsstater i tilfælde af forsendelse via Kanalen, Biscayabugten, Det Irske Hav, Nordsøen og Den Europæiske Unions kyst ud mod Atlanterhavet ville være blevet underrettet om sådanne skibsforsendelser og ville have givet deres samtykke til dem?
If that is so - and your reply appears to indicate that Member States of the European Union would have prior information and give consent to shipments along their coastal highways and byways - then can you confirm that in the case of shipments along the Channel, the Bay of Biscay, the Irish Sea, the North Sea and the Atlantic coast of the European Union, all the Member States would have been informed of such shipments and would have consented to them?
