lpv:translated text	"I welcome this document because Parliament consents to the draft Council decision on the conclusion by the European Union of the amended constitution and rules of procedure of the International Rubber Study Group (IRSG). It should be noted that the IRSG’s membership has been weakened by recent developments, and that the IRSG is the only inclusive platform grouping both rubber producing and consuming countries. Furthermore, in spite of its shortcomings, the IRSG is still the most appropriate body to work on increasing the transparency, which is lacking on the physical market, and also a body that is badly needed to ensure fair, predictable and affordable access to rubber all around the world. The revision of the constitution and rules of procedure of the IRSG can also provide an impetus for relaunching the group as an essential multi-stakeholder forum. All efforts possible must be made to increase the membership of this group, in particular, by engaging with the main rubber producing and consuming countries. A strong membership base remains a prerequisite for the long-term viability and effectiveness of the IRSG as an authoritative body. This will undoubtedly have an impact on greater sustainability in the industry and the development of quality standards, as well as alternative rubbers."@en1
