"Food safety is one of the main issues of concern to Europe’s citizens. European legislation must therefore guarantee them optimum protection by means of up-to-date, more stringent provisions whenever necessary. Following the bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) crisis, the European Union introduced strict rules in 1997 on the identification and traceability of bovine animals. The electronic identification of bovine animals makes it possible to obtain more reliable data, while also strengthening the traceability system and food safety. It also makes it possible to speed up the registration of bovine animals, automate some tasks and boost the effectiveness of herd management. I think that a debate is needed about whether this measure should be compulsory or voluntary and that the costs which should be borne by farmers need to be quantified."@en1
