lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Commissioner, I would like, first of all, to congratulate Mr Papastamkos on this truly outstanding report. I know that he has put a great deal of himself into it and has been personally involved in the work on it, so I warmly congratulate him on this document. There are two points to which I would like to draw attention. The first is that of geographical indications of origin. It is to be regretted that neither the Commission nor we Europeans as a whole have succeeded in resolving the issue of geographical designations of origin, important though it is, and we are talking here not only about places and names, but also about the knowledge contained in the products that come from these places. In very many cases, Europe is the original that many others imitate, and we should make them pay us for that. The second point I would like to discuss is the one that Mrs Mann, Mr Karim and others raised, which has, fortunately, had some influence on the report. It is not acceptable that 130 parliamentarians from 80 countries should spend three days negotiating and then not be mentioned even once in the final whilst there are six references to non-governmental organisations in the same document. That is an invitation to put a question mark against this assembly's democratic legitimacy. To whom, if not to democrats, should it refer? Quite apart from that, I wish Mr Papastamkos every success in carrying this idea forward."@en1
