The European Parliament's plenary today approved by an overwhelming majority the opinion on the insurance of natural and man-made disasters, on which Marlene Mizzi was the S&D group main spokeswoman.
Ms Mizzi said the result was confirmation of the EP’s continuous fight to ensure that citizens were protected and knowledgeable about products meant to safeguard their interests.
The European Commission had proposed the creation of uniform rules and insurance liability.
Parliament, argued, however, that such an approach was not needed due to different levels of risk in Europe.
