"I voted in favour of the final report, although I have many reservations. However, we need to improve the current situation. This report provides the bare minimum: we voted to include Indirect Land Use Change (ILUC) factors reflecting the climate impact due to displacement of food production of different feedstocks on greenhouse gas accounting from 2020, and adopted a cap of 6 % on land-based biofuels including energy crops as a safeguard for 2020. My Group opposed the 10 % biofuels target when it was first proposed, but found no majority in the EP. We have now seen the damage that the current target is doing in terms of removing land for food production and transferring its use to fuel production. I deeply regret the attitude of some Members, who have sought to weaken the Commission’s proposal and who now seek to delay agreement with a view to weakening Parliament’s position and doing in negotiations what they could not do in the vote."@en1
