"Mr President, I would first like to thank Ms Yannakoudakis for her excellent work. I think we have tackled the difficult problems well and we have achieved an excellent result. I would particularly like to emphasise what was also emphasised in the presentation, which is that we are ensuring that donations are voluntary, transparent and non-commercial. This last point is where the greatest risk lies. As Ms Ries also pointed out, there is going to be a drastic shortage. This gives rise to certain problems, which could lead to something that we do not want to see. In this connection, I would like to mention, first and foremost, the great shortage of human eggs. In other words, human egg cells. We have plenty of semen from men. Eggs from our women are in short supply, however, and undoubtedly, if we do not take active measures, then they will become an object of trade. People will then pay women in poorer countries to donate eggs because the demand is so great, which is why we need to stick so solidly to this point. Thank you for the fact that we have been able to reach agreement on this matter and lay down clear rules. I hope that we will succeed in getting the rest to work just as well."@en1
