"I should like to thank Mr Byrne for his very comprehensive and thoughtful reply. This is an important issue, which is affecting more and more people. It is a chronic health issue and has considerable effects on the quality of life of those who acquire this disease. There is increasing evidence – though I agree, for the moment at least, with Commissioner Byrne that it is not conclusive – that there is a link between the presence of these bacteria in pasteurised milk and the incidence of Crohn's disease.
I would ask the Commission to consider all the evidence, when the studies are completed, and perhaps hold a seminar or a wider discussion on what measures might be taken, as this is a disease which is increasingly of concern and it is spreading. The most obvious step would be for the Commission to extend the period of pasteurisation from 15 seconds at the appropriate temperature to 25 seconds. This may be the most simple and effective method. I wonder whether the Commission would agree that those steps might be taken at the end of the studies?"@en1
