"Mr President, Mr Maat’s report is excellent and summarises the legitimate and powerful criticism that has to be directed, in the first place, against the Council of Ministers and the Member States. It is disgraceful that those of us in a civilised and cultivated part of the world, calling itself Europe, should treat animals in the way we do. Moreover, no one can convince me that it is economically necessary. Presumably, it is economic madness. I want first of all to deal with Paragraph 14. Anyone who drives when drunk loses his driving licence immediately. How can a driver arrive with a load including dead animals and yet retain both his driving licence and his licence to transport animals? That is absurd! Paragraph 20 is about ending the payment of export refunds in respect of live animals. That is a first small step able, in actual fact, to be taken by the EU."@en1
