lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I should like to extend my warmest thanks to all those who have participated in this debate. I think it a great shame that the Council is not present, as I believe that this House has again taken a very clear position on cloning, and indeed considers that this has no place in the present regulation and should, at all events, be the subject of open and public debate. I myself would not want meat from cloned animals on my plate, but I can imagine others saying we want separate legislation. In any case, it is very clear that we want to see separate legislation on this and that it should not be dealt with as part of the novel foods regulation. I hope that this message comes across very clearly, as today we have been talking about nanotechnology and cloning. Indeed, much has been said about this, but the novel foods regulation is about very much more. It is about all the new technologies that are on the verge of discovery or that scientists are working on at the moment. We do not want to stand in the way of innovation, but we do want consumers and producers to know where they stand, and we want to know for certain that the food on our plates is safe. Therefore, I hope that this discussion on cloning will no longer stand in the way of the novel foods legislation, and also that developing countries wanting to place natural, traditional foods on the European market are not now deterred by this kind of bickering from trading with the European Union in simple, natural products. I hope that Parliament will repeat the signal it has given in today’s debate with equal clarity in tomorrow’s vote, and then, I believe, things should turn out fine."@en1
