"The report discusses a proposal for deregulation but, at the same time, harmonisation of the permitted size of food packaging. On the one hand, it may, from the point of view of the internal market, be good to have standards that ultimately benefit the consumer. On the other hand, the report includes a proposal for far-reaching detailed regulation at EU level.
Among the amendments voted through by Parliament’s committee is one stating that studies carried out by the Commission show that unit prices are, in general, neither used nor understood by consumers. These statements in some degree declare people in the Member States incapable of managing their own affairs and are thus evidence of an unpleasant attitude towards the population.
I have today voted against the report because it involves regulation of an area about which decisions should really be made not at EU level but by each Member State."@en1
