"We have arrived at a good compromise on this report, which will enable us to have a balanced regulation that meets the European Union’s requirements with regard to food safety.
By prohibiting the marketing of frozen poultrymeat under the label ‘fresh product’, by rejecting the use of toxic substances, such as chlorine, to decontaminate poultry carcasses, and by opting for clear labelling of origin and date of slaughter, we have favoured a common-sense approach and chosen to make defending the interests of European consumers our priority.
In adopting the resolution of June 2008, Parliament had already expressed strong opposition to authorising the marketing of ‘chlorinated poultry’ on the European market, and it was followed in that respect by the ministers of agriculture at the Council of last December.
With today’s vote, we have confirmed our desire to ensure that, from farm to table, food in the European Union is as safe as possible for consumers."@en1
