lpv:translated text	"Mr President, when we go into a supermarket these days and look at, say, the yoghurt section, we could be forgiven for thinking that we have just stepped into a pharmacy, such is the range on offer. However, this level of advertising, which is ultimately excessive, contrasts with the lack of information and labelling for sectors of the population with specific needs: newborns, infants, those who are gluten- or lactose-intolerant, diabetics, and many others. More serious still, these foods are often unavailable, even after looking in several supermarkets and shops. Lack of availability cannot be an option for those with no choice. Another pertinent issue is price, as these products are generally much more expensive. For people with special nutritional needs this is not a matter of choice, but of absolute necessity. We cannot allow a situation in which, in this area too, there is a gulf between those who can obtain items that are essential in their life and those who cannot. This is a key concern for us, as a public health issue, and the health of all of us cannot rest in the hands of the few yet powerful food industry multinationals. Clear rules are needed to protect those who have no choice, and it is clear to us that Europe cannot ignore the health of the most vulnerable."@en1
