"By adopting the Sommer report, Parliament is showing that it is mindful of the transparency of information about the nutritional value and the provenance of foodstuffs, in line with the requirements of European consumers for greater safety in the products they buy.
By confirming the agreement at second reading with the Council, Parliament is introducing the obligation to provide detailed information about the composition and energy value of foodstuffs, as well as extending origin labelling to fresh swine, sheep, goat and poultry meat.
The Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament has played a dynamic role in the negotiations, convincing the Council and Commission to consider the subsequent adoption of rules on origin for meat used in packaged foods, as well as on the effects of using hydrogenated fats, which, from today, are subject to legislation.
The adopted text signals recognition of the Italian approach, which has already previously shown how to protect and promote Italian and European excellence, and it is therefore a source of satisfaction both for Italy and for operators in the sector. However, although the step taken is important, our commitment to European citizens being able to make ever more independent and informed choices about the products they put on their tables will go on."@en1
