lpv:translated text	"Mr President, cattle in England was fed with the ground carcasses of animals and foreign prions caused BSE. In France sludge has been mixed with animal feed, which has also contained human waste, because of its urea content. In Belgium, fats have been mixed with animal feed, and the fats, when heated, have produced dioxins. The EU and Mr Fischler, the Commissioner responsible for agriculture, are very much to blame for many problems, but the real guilty parties in these matters are the national governments. The basic problem is animal feed. It is the most important stage in the food chain. The solution to this problem is not to establish an army of EU officials to oversee the work of farms. The solution is a national one. The national authorities must dare to monitor farms and their production. Perhaps that way the illegal use of hormones will also be discovered. In any case, this issue will best be resolved by adopting the practice of food labels that indicate the origin of the produce."@en1
