lpv:spoken text	"At the outset, I wish to compliment the Commissioner on his good work in a very difficult area. There have never been as many issues about food safety, and he has been there to protect consumers. You are correct in saying that food labelling is not enough to protect consumers. I have recently learnt that, in Ireland, beef from South America has been found to be labelled as Irish. That has to be a cause for concern in terms of misleading consumers. Would the Commissioner just comment on that as an area where the new Commission should certainly take an interest, since, if consumers are to have accurate information, we need to tighten up on labelling. I am not calling for a police force for food, but it certainly looks as if we need something more than we currently have."@en1
