"Mr President, I should also like to first of all extend my compliments to Mrs Keppelhoff. I always feel that reports of this kind are safe in her hands. I can broadly support the Commission’s proposal. From time to time there has to be a review of all the additives in animal feed. I think that this is entirely in keeping with the White Paper on Food Safety.
I also agree with the ban on antibiotics in general in the year 2005. The ban on their prophylactic use can be supported. I have rather more problems with coccidiostatics, because, if we were to ban them too, what then is the alternative? I am told that if you were to do that, the next treatment of animals with antibiotics would have far more damaging consequences in general than if we were to leave things as they are. I can consent to this being evaluated as well and that we look at what must happen on the basis of the outcome. I would like to reiterate what Mr Peres had to say: we are imposing very strict demands on European farmers. How can we ensure that the same demands are imposed on farmers elsewhere in the world who want to sell to us, in order to prevent unfair competition?"@en1
