"Mr President, the European Union is taking all the necessary measures to combat avian influenza and rightly so. However, avian influenza has generated a great deal of panic among consumers, and as a result we have seen a drastic fall in the consumption of poultry by 80% and a fall in the consumption of eggs by 45%. All this has put the poultry farming sector in a very difficult position and the European Union is not taking the right measures to help the industry. We should not allow this under any circumstances. I call for suitable measures to be taken to help poultry farmers. Moreover, if we do not take these measures, once the fuss dies down, we shall not have any poultry farms in the European Union to meet future demand and the poultry products of the European Union are certainly of a higher standard than the products which we shall have to import from third countries. I therefore call for us to demonstrate our solidarity with the industry."@en1
