lpv:translated text	"Mr President, this regulation will finally provide consumers with the nutritional info that they need in order to live a healthy lifestyle. It is a major step forwards that the obligation to provide nutritional information will henceforth apply to all foods, rather than merely to those that make a health claim. The fact that this information must be stated in numbers and letters and in relation to standard quantities is the right choice. The traffic light system was attractive, but it was far from effective. Fortunately, the handcrafted products sector is to be given an exception from these requirements. Otherwise, it would be like signing a death warrant for these high-quality products in many cases. I am grateful to all those Members who have supported my bid to retain the existing language arrangements. This is essential, as what use is a right to information for consumers if they do not get that information in a language they can understand? Finally, I would like to emphasise once again the difference in purpose of the designation of provenance marking and the traceability requirement. With that difference at the back of my mind, I have no problem at all with a mandatory marking of the designation of provenance of the ingredients of composite products being provisionally on the legislative table and for the benefit of this to be first thoroughly investigated in all its aspects."@en1
