".
The use of medicinal herbs dates back to time immemorial. Whilst acknowledging the predominant role played by modern pharmacology, it should also be recognised that medicinal herbs still have their place in medicine and that their therapeutic potential can be exploited.
We therefore welcome the Commission’s proposal to create a Committee for Herbal Medicinal Products, which is autonomous and separate from the Committee on Proprietary Medicinal Products, which will be responsible for the regulation and monitoring of all aspects of herbal medicines.
It is, however, crucial to make the distinction between a medicinal product, even a herbal one, and food or cosmetic products and to ensure adequate deadlines for the herbal product industry to adapt to the new legal situation. We are counting on the national authorities to provide this support and, confident that they will do so, we have given our vote to Mr Nisticó’s report."@en1
