". – While I am not happy with every aspect of the compromise resolution, it does reflect the determination of the European Parliament to urgently address the serious threat of foot-and-mouth disease.
I have voted against sections of the resolution which deal with general vaccination and supported amendments which allow protective emergency vaccination, at the request of Member States.
Given that the source of Britain's first outbreak originated outside the EU, I have called for an urgent review of cross-border controls to prevent a similar occurrence in the future.
From an Irish perspective, we strongly favour a non-vaccination policy, and have made every effort to contain the country's single outbreak – so far with success.
As an island nation, exporting 90% of the country's beef production, our animal health status is a priority."@en1
