"Mr President, Commissioner, I would firstly like to thank the rapporteur for his efforts and praise the important work of the institutions in their approach to animal health which also, of course, facilitates the protection of human health. This proposal falls within the framework of the legislation intended to strengthen the rules on feedingstuffs, included in the White Paper on food safety. Therefore, Parliament, as well as the Commission, demands mandatory labelling which specifies the composition – as a percentage by weight, as Mr Cunha said –, the quantities and the origin of the ingredients of the feedingstuffs, rather than indicating the categories of the ingredients with no further detail, such as, for example, by proteins or by oils and fats, which has had so much to do with previous scandals such as the cases of BSE and dioxins. The demand that manufacturers provide proof of the composition of foods, and that there be an exhaustive and up-to-date list of authorised raw materials and rigorous controls of suspicious materials – and their immediate withdrawal from the market – must from now on be essential issues for us. I am grateful that this matter is finally coming to its conclusion and that we are going to have a solution as swiftly as possible."@en1
