".
All the scientific advice I receive in relation to this issue focuses on the manner in which the force-feeding takes place, that is, the circumstances surrounding the force-feeding. Whether the birds are kept in cages, for instance, and the other circumstances and conditions in which the birds are kept.
It is important to emphasise that there is no scientific advice available to us to the effect that the force-feeding itself, as distinct from the conditions under which the animals are kept, is contrary to animal welfare. That is the clear advice I have in relation to this issue, and I give that response to you for your consideration. In those circumstances, I am satisfied that Directive 98/58 is being properly implemented."@en1
