lpv:translated text	"The European Union witnessed a dramatic surge in processed poultry imports, due to substitution effects which negatively affected this industry. Foreign exporters seemed to take advantage of a relative gap in the level of legal protection by reducing chicken meat/offal content in preparations to under 57 %, thus qualifying for a bordering tariff line. Similar substitution effects were likely to take place under other tariff lines, covering other types of processed poultry. For that reason, and as this surge in prepared poultry meat imports negatively affected the European poultry industry, the Commission was authorised by the Council to negotiate the modification of concessions on poultry meat under Chapter 16 of the Combined Nomenclature (CN). As I consider that these modifications are beneficial to the EU, I voted in favour of concluding these agreements."@en1
