"Mr President, Mr Bowis has done an job as rapporteur on this major and complicated issue. In fact, there are a whole lot of important and, on the face of it, conflicting objectives to be achieved in this matter of food safety, including that of safety itself. In this connection, I should like to speak up for cheap food of the kind which families with children buy and which children and young people eat. We are also concerned with the freedom to develop food and the food sector and also with the conservation of Europe’s cultural heritage. A central aspect of this is to ensure that the rich heritage of traditions can be preserved. I therefore want to give my support to Amendment No 15. I nonetheless believe that one issue has not been properly discussed, namely the need for uniform regulations to be followed up by uniform and thorough supervision. It should not be forgotten that, viewed as a whole, the food sector is the biggest workplace in the European Union. We must ensure that the regulations are complied with in the same way throughout the European Union. Otherwise, we interfere both with safety and free competition in the internal market. I should like to repeat this: ensure that the regulations are properly complied with, the length and breadth of the Union."@en1
