"− I welcomed this document because the legislation on foodstuffs for particular nutritional uses needs to be thoroughly overhauled and the concept of dietetic food, which in most cases means very little from a nutritional point of view, should be done away with, in order to afford industry and the vulnerable population groups that are the subject of this regulation greater legal certainty. There must be regular democratic scrutiny by Parliament of the definitions of foods intended for infants, children under the age of three and people with certain medical conditions, for whom a special diet is of vital importance, and of the rules governing the composition of such foods. This simplified but more protective legal framework must apply to imported and exported foods alike and should make it easier for the precautionary principle to be applied. If we are to expect the internal market to work properly, we cannot afford to disregard the health of the more vulnerable members of society."@en1
