"Mr President, I am very pleased with the Lepage report, and I am pleased that we are adopting solutions which allow the Member States to decide whether to allow or ban the cultivation of genetically modified organisms. Five years ago, during the previous parliamentary term, together with a number of fellow Members I collected signatures to a written statement proposing that every Member State should be allowed to decide freely on this matter, taking into account differences in agriculture and different conditions. Back then we were in the minority, but today I have the impression that the majority of Parliament is in favour of this solution, and quite rightly so.
There are countries such as Poland, for example, where introducing genetically modified crops would entail the risk of destroying traditional agriculture and the organic agriculture which is developing. This is a very good solution, which respects sovereignty."@en1
