In this talk we show how the errors on solar and atmospheric parameters affect the measurement of the unknown PMNS parameters $\theta_{13}$ and $\delta$ at future LBL facilities. Performing three parameters fits in $\theta_{13}$, $\delta$ and, in turn, one of the atmospheric or solar parameters, we show that present uncertainties on $\theta_{23}$ and $\Delta m^2_{23}$ worsen significantly the precision on ($\theta_{13}$,$\delta$) whereas the solar sector does not introduce further uncertainties. A precision on the atmospheric parameters similar to what expected at T2K-I is necessary to improve the sensitivities to $\theta_{13}$ and $\delta$.
