lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, I wish to express thanks to you, the rapporteur and my Scottish colleague, Bill Miller, for bringing matter before the Petitions Committee. The issue of silicone gel breast implants is a sensitive one and this debate, as many have said this evening, is long overdue. That is why we in the Environment Committee wanted to see access for all patients to free comprehensive information drawn up by independent experts, clear, bold health warnings in advertising, and an end to the before-and-after-pictures frequently used in women's magazines. We in the Environment Committee believe that all breast implant operations should be recorded in the EU and that, as a result, manufacturers should supply only to surgeons who use such a register. The cost of breast implants should include precare, independent advice, alternatives, a cooling-off period and post-care. Finally, there should be comprehensive national lists of registered private clinics and trained plastic surgeons. I am glad to see that he rapporteur has taken on much of the Environment Committee's opinion and I thank her for that."@en1
