"Given the successive food crises we have experienced, the 25% rule on the labelling of foodstuffs should be abolished and consumers suffering from allergies should be given full information on the foodstuffs they buy. Similarly, I believe the derogations on preparations of sauces and mustards constituting less than 5% of the finished product should be discontinued. Certain exceptions, however, should be retained, such as the role of the expert committees responsible for the various drinks. These committees must continue to lay down the rules on labelling. Certain alcoholic drinks, such as wine, must obey specific rules on labelling. Additives and technological adjuvants whose presence cannot be proved in the finished product should not be labelled. I welcome the fact that the scientific criteria for inclusion in the list of ingredients in Annex III are fully taken into consideration and that this list is revised and updated biennially. We consider the implementation of the directive to be important. That is why we are excluding prior assessment by the Food Authority of the scientific criteria that determine the inclusion of the ingredients in the Annex."@en1
