"I welcome the work which has been done to date by the Commission and the industry in reducing the cases of BSE throughout the EU. The goal should continue to be the eradication of BSE, and, to do this, we must continue to have a stringent surveillance programme and funding for research. I believe any progression must be under clear scientific evidence but with the support of the consumer. Upholding consumer confidence, safety of goods and animal welfare standards are the key goals. The industry has worked extremely hard and suffered huge losses since the outbreak of BSE in the UK in the late 1990s.
Northern Ireland is slowly recovering and now exports large quantities of red meat all over the world and into new markets; any question mark over the quality of our meat could have repercussions for the industry. I believe the Commission must work to find a reliable system to identify species origin of PAPs. Cross contamination within animal feed production must be addressed before any further steps are taken by the Commission."@en1
