lpv:translated text	"Madam President, there were three goals that were important to the Greens. Firstly the abolition of animal testing in cosmetics. That has succeeded; congratulations to Mrs Roth-Behrendt who negotiated so excellently. The second point, which was given less of a chance, relates to dangerous substances. Dangerous substances must not be allowed to be used in cosmetics. We also won on that point, so compliments are due to Mrs Roth-Behrendt in that regard too. The third point concerns allergens. Some cosmetics still contain allergens. Originally the Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance wanted a complete ban on these substances, but we are quite happy with the labelling that has now been decided upon, because we think that it will mean the same thing in practice. There are already signs that quite a few big companies will be removing these allergens from their cosmetics. So we have also won on that point. There is one thing I would like to get off my chest, though: I really cannot understand the criticism from the animal protectionists. We have achieved the most we could achieve, and we commend the rapporteur and the whole negotiation delegation."@en1
