BRUSSELSCity, Safar 19, 1436, Dec 11, 2014, SPA -- EU lawmakers expressed alarm on Thursday at apparent plans in the Union's new executive to scrap dozens of legislative programmes, including rules to curb air pollution and promote recycling, Reuters reported. A draft document from the European Commission, circulating among members of the European Parliament, listed 80 planned laws, regulations and directives that President Jean-Claude Juncker and his deputy Frans Timmermans proposed halting work on in the coming year. Commission officials did not comment on the draft, seen by Reuters. But lawmakers briefed by Timmermans on Thursday said he had declined to detail to them which plans would be dropped. A final document is expected to be presented on Tuesday. -- SPA 23:51 LOCAL TIME 20:51 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
