I voted for the proposal for a Council directive because I believe it has already been afforded sufficient unequivocal scrutiny and appreciation in the Committee on Agriculture, where it gained well-deserved, unanimous approval.
Nonetheless, I wonder whether it is worthwhile and necessary for such questions that merely correct or update legislation to have to follow the same procedure (albeit simplified) as other reports that deal with significantly more important topics.
In fact, in the case in point, I believe that the change made to Directive 87/328/EEC can only be understood in the light of an excessively positivist interpretation of Community law, since the storage of frozen semen of bovine animals that is provided for at ‘semen collection centres’ (with own production) could, by recourse to ordinary rules of legal interpretation, include the ‘semen storage centres’ (without own production) without any formal correction being necessary.
It may sound trivial, but sometimes even the ridiculous can be treated seriously, or something serious can seem ridiculous."@en1
