"I voted for the report on the International Cocoa Agreement 2010. In 2010, the United Nations cocoa conference agreed on the new text, which effectively replaced the agreement of 2001. It represents an important step forwards as it proposes to bring more transparency and sustainability into a sector on which 50 million livelihoods depend throughout the world. The agreement specifically aims to promote international cooperation in the global cocoa economy; to provide an appropriate framework for discussion on all cocoa matters among governments and with the private sector; to contribute to the strengthening of the national cocoa economies of Member States; to strive towards obtaining fair prices leading to equitable economic returns for both producers and consumers; to promote a sustainable cocoa economy in economic, social and environmental terms; and to promote transparency in the world cocoa economy and the elimination of trade barriers. The International Cocoa Agreement 2010 will therefore have a positive impact on all actors participating in the cocoa economy and I hope that it will also translate into tangible long-term benefits for smallholders and their communities."@en1
