"Mr President, first of all, I would like to thank Mr Wojciechowski for the speed with which he has been able to bring this report to the House. He has worked extremely hard on this. I want to go back to the area of the correlation tables. The Commissioner said that he hoped it would be good enough, but I have to say to the Commissioner that ‘hope’ is not enough. This is a very serious disease that we need to get control of this summer. It is carried by small flies, by what we call midges, and has to be brought under control this summer.
Mr Wojciechowski has done his bit and he cannot be blamed in any way for any delay. It would be very unfortunate if infighting in Brussels or excessive bureaucracy were to result in a delay. We certainly need action, because the disease travels extremely fast and we have to be able to vaccinate outside affected areas. I have to remind the House that on many occasions, as Mr Wojciechowski and others have said, prevention is better than cure. On this occasion, I think we have got to move, and I want the Commission to give us an assurance that bureaucracy will not hold us back."@en1
