lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, I wish to raise a matter which is not, but should be, on this week's agenda – the foot-and-mouth disease crisis in Europe. It seems extraordinary that this Parliament, which represents the people of Europe, is not addressing this question this week, given the deepening of the crisis since the Commission last spoke. I obviously have a particular concern in that this crisis is threatening a EUR 15bn food industry in the Republic of Ireland because of the steps we have had to take to ensure that foot-and-mouth disease does not get a hold there. It seems to me that this is a matter of concern not just to people in Ireland but to people everywhere in Europe. I would ask you, Madam President, to take the initiative and request the Commissioner to come to Parliament this week to make an up-to-date statement on this crisis. I am quite sure that we can find at least 30 minutes to enable the Commissioner to do that, and to demonstrate that this is a credible political forum for the people of Europe."@en1
