"I am obviously disappointed with the result of this vote as, whilst the reintroduction of animal meal may indeed be a solution to the Union’s current protein deficit, it is nonetheless true that the food safety of Europe’s citizens must be a priority. Moreover, whilst we must take into consideration the scientific and economic data relating to the use of animal meal, we also need to respect the expectations of those citizens.
In the middle of the E. coli health scare, the issue of consumer acceptability is wholly understandable. The spectre of bovine spongiform encephalopathy and the pictures of hundreds of slaughtered mad cows, plus the added fear of variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, should make us extremely prudent and responsible. This is why I voted against this motion for a resolution."@en1
