"Yesterday, I voted against the report on the protein deficit in the EU because I believe that this problem cannot be resolved by allowing genetically modified products to be imported into the EU. The fact is that 80% of our protein crop requirement already has to be imported. The original intention of the report – the instigation of measures to increase the indigenous production of protein crops so as to combat the decline in protein production in the EU – has been fudged.
The genetic engineering lobby has clearly succeeded in promoting a positive attitude to genetically modified protein imports, which has made its way into the report through amendments that were unfortunately adopted by the majority in plenary. Even the rapporteur was forced to vote against his own report. As a member of the Social Democratic Party of Austria, I, along with my party colleagues in Parliament, favour a policy of zero tolerance for genetically modified organisms."@en1
