"I voted in favour of this report, which plans to revise the constitution of the International Rubber Study Group (IRSG) and which recognises the importance of this organisation. We need to revitalise cooperation between rubber producing and importing countries. As the rapporteur points out, the IRSG is an intergovernmental organisation first established in 1944 in the United Kingdom, and relocated in 2008 to Singapore. It offers a platform for discussion between rubber producing and consuming countries on all aspects of the rubber supply chain. This structure provides statistical information on the global market and promotes cooperation between its members. Currently, nine countries plus the European Union are contributing members: the Republic of Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, India, Japan, Malaysia, Nigeria, the Russian Federation, Singapore and Sri Lanka. Some 120 industry representatives are members through a Panel of Associates. Despite the fact that, in the past few years, major price rises and high volatility have impacted a number of commodities, including natural rubber, I thought it was necessary to reaffirm this international cooperation."@en1
