"Unfortunately, there are still many areas where the position of consumers in the single market needs to be improved. I have long held the view that one of these areas is greater consumer awareness, or the provision of factually accurate and non-misleading information, on the basis of which the consumer can make a choice. I therefore regard the correct labelling of products – especially food – as one of the most important consumer rights for all of us. One of the aims of this regulation is the labelling of fishery products. I agree with the rapporteur that consumers have the right to better and more comprehensible information on the fishery products they buy, in order to make an informed choice. I therefore do not understand why consumers are denied this information in the report – for example, through the proposal to remove data on the catch, which is information sought after and requested by consumers. Let us not deny consumers their right to a free choice based on true and full information."@en1
