".
I feel that products labelled ‘organic’ should not contain any percentage of genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Consumers have the right to such a guarantee when they buy a product labelled ‘organic’.
Most importantly, if products with a GM percentage of 0.9% were labelled organic there would be a risk of seeing another kind of labelling, GMO-free, which would undermine the status of organic farming.
I therefore voted for the amendments aimed at a complete ban on the use of GMOs in organic farming and in the labelling of organic products.
I also voted for the amendment incorporating products such as salt, wool, preserved fish, cosmetics, food supplements and essential oils into this regulation, given that these products are linked to the natural environment during at least one stage in their processing."@en1
