"I voted in favour of this text. As the Member responsible for consumer protection, I thought it important to emphasise the issue of labelling. Consumers have a right to have better and understandable information on the fishery product they buy, so as to make an informed choice. However, the frozen products referred to should be exempted from this rule, as they already bear the date of freezing (or date of first freezing), which - along with ‘best-by’ dates - would produce an overkill of dates, most likely confusing for the consumer. Labels should also carry information about easily identifiable fishing zones to which consumers can relate, unlike the currently used labelling for zones. Fish species should also be identified using locally familiar names on all labels. Consumers should be clear about which fisheries products have been frozen and defrosted, particularly with regard to ‘fresh fish’ products."@en1
