"Madam President, I should like to thank Commissioner Byrne for that statement. He has had rather a baptism of fire as a new Commissioner. Would he agree with me that the situation as regards beef has now tended, in the public eye, to throw into chaos the question of the acceptability of judgments delivered at the European level on food safety and that this bodes rather ill for Mr Prodi’s plan for a European food safety agency? That is of great importance to my committee and will be of importance to this Parliament in the months to come.
Specifically on the ban and the judgment of the Scientific Steering Committee, could he say why, if the judgment is so clear and unanimous, there is any need for further negotiation . . .

. . . or should we call it clarification. The boundary between clarification and negotiation seems – at least from the other side of the Channel – to be somewhat blurred. Will he take action against France after the Commission meeting on 10 November if, by that stage, having had several days to digest the unanimous decision, the French Government has taken no action to lift this ban?"@en1
