lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, last year, of course, we had the horsemeat scandal, but seven years ago in my region we had a bird flu epidemic when dead turkeys imported from Hungary were being processed in the UK and then being labelled as British meat. I have called for better traceability ever since then. Those with longer memories will remember that 13 years ago, 10 million sheep and cows were put down in the UK during the foot-and-mouth epidemic. Traceability is not just about stopping fraud, it is also about reducing health risks. Our single market is meant to allow for free trade with reduced bureaucracy across borders, but it is not an excuse for fraud or the lack of proper protection. Fundamentally, if you cannot tell which country the meat comes from, how can you trace it back to the farm? And if you cannot trace it back to the farm, how can you reduce the risk of diseases?"@en1
