"The Commissioner has just told us only what he was able to tell us.
Other things have been left out, however, which have already been debated in the special committees on agriculture. For example, with regard to rice, he knows that the subsidy price has been reduced by 60%, that internal production has stabilised and that consumption has increased by 20%. However, for five years the situation has been unsustainable for rice producers, who are facing an increasingly bleak future, as a result of the Everything but Arms decisions and imports of basmati rice, which do not correspond either in terms of their characteristics or their origins.
We could also consider garlic, mushrooms, honey, tomato, rice, wine, concentrated juices, etc., and we would see that the quality, the safety of products imported, as well as the production methods, both in terms of animal welfare and in terms of guaranteeing quality and the environment, are not subject to any control.
I would therefore ask you what supplementary measures are subject to the supervision of the Commission, but do not tell me that control falls to the Member States."@en1
