"Mr President, I should like to compliment the Commission on its proposal and I hope that Parliament will not depart from it too much. The Commission is demonstrating progressive insight, that is, you can increase the control of food and certainly of meat by placing greater responsibility with the people who have to carry out the control. On this point I should like to echo the words of our group spokesperson, Mrs Grossetête. On the basis of Christian Democratic principles you could say that you want to place more individual responsibility where it belongs. This means that farms that are well organised, that have a good branding system, can do more themselves and that at the same time there must be scope for small enterprises to continue their work. It also means that the present way of working in poultry meat will have to be extended to veal and pork. It further means that responsibility as regards the from-the-land-to-the-plate guarantee must be made good and at the same time that no deviations can be tolerated in the so-called INR system. I do not entirely agree with the rapporteur’s position that a veterinarian should have the final decision as to whether or not an animal is safe for the food chain in cases where there is no question of airtight administrative processing. After all, you cannot see everything on the outside. I am against Amendment No 135 and in favour of Amendment No 127, and I anticipate the vote with confidence."@en1
