lpv:translated text	"Commissioner, obviously, I am still French and I am still in favour of the precautionary principle. I have already had the opportunity to ask you a number of questions, which have still not been answered, particularly regarding the varying assessments offered by scientists. Consequently, today, as a Member of the European Parliament, I find it hard to see the difference between your experts and the French experts. Professor Dormont’s work on prions has, I believe, met with international recognition. He is not a person who is working on behalf of a specific lobby or in opposition to a specific lobby. He is simply doing what the consumers, the voters and people of France asked him to, i.e. applying the precautionary principle for the sake of food safety. He is only doing his job. The French Government which set up this food agency is doing nothing more than acting on the requests of the citizens of France. We have not, then, had any response regarding the varying assessments of the scientists, and I would like to hear your answer to this."@en1
