"One of the fundamental objectives of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) is to provide a high degree of protection for humans and animals. I take a welcome the Authority’s efforts to resolve some of the points on which it has received criticism, in particular, the prevention and management of conflicts of interest. I acknowledge the efforts by EFSA to ensure the integrity of its decision-making by introducing policies and actions aimed at improving ethics and transparency, and ensuring effective enforcement of its code of conduct. I also welcome the decisions taken by the Authority to ensure its independence and the integrity of its members. Also of particular importance is the integrated approach to food safety adopted in the EU to combat food-borne zoonoses. This coordinated action has helped to combat a serious and widespread public health threat, with over 320 000 human cases confirmed each year in the EU. I therefore voted in favour."@en1
