Paragraph 3 a (new)
3a. Takes the view that worsening resource scarcity is not only a sustainability issue, but increasingly a key competitiveness issue for Europe and its companies; Highlights the importance of resource efficiency as the vital guiding principle for the European reindustrialisation agenda; calls, in this respect: - for the full and ambitious implementation of the Commission Roadmap to a Resource Efficient Europe; - mainstreaming of the notion of cascading use of resources into all relevant policies, ensuring our scarce raw materials are used to their full potential; - on the Commission and the Member States to develop and to subsequently deploy resource accounting that is to be integrated in EU and national budgets in all their chapters (each corresponding to an activity), which in turn may be broken down into articles, and those in turn, where necessary, into items, to ensure efficient integration of the resource efficiency considerations in the policymaking;
