lpv:translated text	". With this report the European Parliament has again gone too far with regulation. When we decide that ‘fundamental ethical principles must be taken into account’ we are skating on thin ice. At the same time notions such as ‘altruism’ and ‘solidarity’ cannot be captured in legislation. As a European Parliament we must not start deciding what ethical rules apply in the Member States. What are we thinking of, defining the notion of ‘ethics’ from Finland to Greece? Countries must decide for themselves what ethical standards they are going to employ. Boarding up the legislation actually has an undesirable effect. You make it more difficult for countries and donors to save people’s lives. This is the reason why I have voted against the Liese report."@en1
