lpv:translated text	". We are very disappointed that in the vote in this report, an important article concerning restrictions on the use of nutrition and health claims was removed. In the article in question, the Commission was called on to establish specific nutrient profiles, which food must respect in order to bear nutrition or health claims. These nutrient profiles were to be established by reference to amounts of fat, saturated fatty acids, sugars and salt/sodium present in the food. We also regret that the provisions on situations in which health claims are permitted have been watered down. In the original proposal, the health claims would have to be authorised, or proven, whereas in the amendment that had just been adopted only the relevant authorities will be informed about the use of health claims and only where doubt exists will it be subject to assessment. This process is justified on the grounds that it is less cumbersome, but the truth is that it is the consumers who lose out. It is essential that consumers be informed and protected. This is a right that must not be placed at the mercy of the economic and financial interests of those who prioritise reducing costs, regardless of the damage this may do to consumers."@en1
