lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, Mr President of the Commission, first and foremost, I would like to lend my support to the objection raised by Mr Florenz and the PPE about the Council’s failure to attend this plenary sitting. We are part of the three-cornered relationship of Council-Parliament-Commission, but I note that the Council attends rarely, if at all. This is scandalous. We must search our own hearts. I feel that this Parliament behaved in a eunuch-like way yesterday in refusing to link this debate on food safety and the WTO with a resolution. I feel there is a need for a broadly based discussion in the public arena about the recycling industry. I endorse the comments made by Mr Whitehead. We really need to have all the facts about what goes into our food. Waste matter must be treated as such. If something can still be recycled then it must only be allowed to enter the food chain having fulfilled extremely stringent conditions, and it must always be retraceable. President of the Commission, I welcome your proposals. In common with Mrs Roth-Behrendt, I too feel very strongly that there should be a dioxin register. It is clear that our food contains dioxins that also derive from external sources. The situation in Belgium is evidence of this and that is why we must take action."@en1
