I voted for this report because protecting public health, along with safeguarding food quality and safety, is an absolute priority and must take precedence over other interests, specifically economic, scientific and technological. This report reaffirms Parliament’s ability to compromise, which has enabled us to secure a resolution that has significantly improved the initial proposal tabled by the Commission. This report stresses the need for a more preventative and cautious attitude as regards cultivating genetically modified organisms (GMOs), whilst also emphasising the importance of protecting the environment, as well as of defending traditional farming, and small and medium-sized farmers. It also takes into account the diversity of the European Union, and the need to make the Member States fully able to intervene in the particular characteristics of their territories and agricultural activities."@en1
