"The cocoa industry provides a living for 50 million people worldwide. Therefore, we must promote increased transparency and sustainability in this sector of the economy. The International Cocoa Agreement supports fair prices which enable producers and consumers in the cocoa value chain to earn a reasonable income. In addition, we must guarantee more transparency in the world cocoa economy by compiling and analysing the relevant statistics and studies. On 25 June 2010, the United Nations cocoa conference, which is made up of the main cocoa producing and cocoa consuming countries, drew up the International Cocoa Agreement 2010 as a replacement for the 2001 version. The new agreement is valid for 10 years and can be extended twice for a period of two years. The 2010 agreement aims to lay the foundations for fairer and more sustainable cocoa trading worldwide. Therefore, I have voted in favour of this report."@en1
