"I abstained during the final vote on this otherwise excellent report by Mrs Patrie because I feel it is politically and scientifically irresponsible to refer to the precautionary principle, even on the basis of “incomplete, inconclusive or uncertain scientific information” and even “in the case of a low risk”. As there is no such thing as zero risk, scientists – or at least politicians – should apply the criterion of proportionality, consider there to be risks and assume their responsibilities. It goes without saying that citizens must, in any event, be fully informed."@en1
