"Mr President, in an ideal world, things would be running just as we predicted at the time of the health check. Unfortunately, that has not been the case with the potato starch sector. If, at the moment, we were to carry out our plans in the situation that we currently face, then we would have a whole lot of companies going bankrupt, because prices are too low. The big question is: is that a price worth paying? I do not think so. I think that the European potato starch sector is a special sector. We have made huge progress in the field of biochemistry, with all sorts of new products being developed, and I do not think that we should interrupt that process. The Commission’s replies do not give me cause for too much optimism. I would like to ask the Commission to review the situation once again in order to initiate intensive dialogue with this sector. I join many of you in calling for a soft landing, and indeed we must ensure that a soft landing is provided, because I think that the potato starch sector has to survive, as it is a special sector. For that to become a reality, the Commission will have to take special measures."@en1
