"− First of all, I think the question of the Irish crisis is proof that we have good systems in place. You do not agree, but I think that, if we did not have good systems in place, the Irish crisis would have gone unnoticed.
It is in fact because we found out that there was this meat with dioxin – because of the traceability of the traders, and of where they buy and where they deliver their meat – that we were immediately able to withdraw it.
It was a precautionary measure that the Government of Ireland decided to take. Traceability is possible because they keep records of where they sell their products.
You have your opinion about that. Of course, I am sure my services will reflect on the Irish crisis because it has cost the European Union many millions of euros and another large sum of money to the Irish Government; so it is something which will not remain unnoticed, and we shall study it.
However, I believe, and this is my personal opinion, that it is thanks to the traceability rules that we were really able to address the crisis."@en1
