Dimas, Stavros (1941- )

Stavros Dimas was the Commissioner for Environment appointed in 2004. He was born in Athens, Greece and served ten times as a Greek MP from the New Democracy Party.

He was Commissioner for Employment and Social Affairs from March to November 2004, under Romano Prodi and was subsequently re-appointed as the Greek Commissioner under the Barroso Presidency.

In the first years of his office he announced four main priorities for his term: climate change, biodiversity, public health and sustainability. He emphasised the importance of the Kyoto Protocol, the Natura 2000 project, the REACH directive, and the need to better enforce existing EU environmental legislation.
