"The International Rubber Study Group (IRSG), founded in 1944, has suffered a loss of credibility in recent years since Asian countries such as Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia no longer belong to it. China and the United States, the world’s largest and third largest rubber consumers respectively, have also pulled out. Individual European countries are now represented in the IRSG by the European Commission. I am in favour of this report because the supply of rubber is a problem that affects Europe’s industry and is closely connected to the wider debate on raw materials. The risk that market supply will be constrained, as is occurring with rare earths, could cause problems for our industries and favour those in rubber producing third countries."@en1
