"The purpose of the proposal is to recast the rules on general food labelling provisions. It consolidates and updates two areas of labelling legislation: the area of general food law covered by Directive 2000/13/EC, and that of nutrition labelling covered by Directive 90/496/EEC. The dossier was affected by the extensive tabling of amendments at each stage of the process (up to 800) and two major groups within Parliament: the rapporteur (partly supported by ECR) and the ‘opposition’ in the form of S&D, Greens/EFA, GUE and partly ALDE. Ms Sommer’s draft report was substantially improved by Parliament. We supported the report both in plenary first reading and in ENVI second reading, as several of our key demands had been incorporated. The Council common position partly showed steps towards the Parliament position (e.g. country of origin), and, from a Green perspective, was better than the Parliament position on some issues (e.g. alcohol). The only ‘but’ is the inclusion of a text that says that Member States may stipulate that the particulars shall be given in one or more languages from among the official languages of the Union, which puts the non-official languages at risk."@en1
