"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the novel foods regulation includes a list of traditional foods from third countries to be admitted onto the European market.
The Committee on the Environment has approved the amendment proposed by my Group, according to which these foods shall have to conform to the safety requirements in force in the European Union. Furthermore, we enthusiastically welcomed the proposal to subject these foodstuffs to an advance ethical opinion, to avoid the circulation on our market of foods deriving from endangered species, or the consumption of foods which would be reproachable for us Europeans.
The main point of difference relates to the inclusion on the list of cloned meat for food, which we do not want. An agreement was not reached between the parties during the trialogue. Despite this, the wait cannot continue any longer, but the Commission ought to submit some proposals on the labelling and traceability of meat from cloned animals as soon as possible.
The position of the
delegation is clear and unequivocal: we are in favour of healthy, good quality products, possibly without any food miles whatsoever."@en1
