lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the vote on the report held in the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development on 24 January was split down the middle: of the 43 members present, 22 voted in favour, 15 voted against and 6 abstained. Due mainly to the fact that it focuses on GMOs, when biotechnology is far broader in scope, this report, which is entitled ‘Biotechnology: prospects and challenges for agriculture in Europe’, has provoked numerous reactions, and not only within our group. For that reason, and due to the ensuing risk of this report – which is fairly crucial for a subject as important as biotechnology – failing, it would be helpful if the report were referred back to the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development so that it can re-examine it and perhaps arrive at a more balanced proposal that receives more votes. I would add that I met Mr Virrankoski to discuss this issue – I am grateful to him for the constructive meeting that we had last week – and that it seems, moreover, that my fellow coordinator, Mr Busk, shares this opinion, if the e-mail that he sent me is anything to go by."@en1
