"We know that cloning must be the subject of a specific legislative proposal of the European Commission. However, as we wait for this regulation, we cannot run the risk that products derived from cloned animals or created in laboratories could end up on our plates. Above all, we must guarantee the safety of our consumers and this is difficult without explicitly prohibiting the use of cloned animals and their descendants in food products. I am therefore pleased that the vote taken today by the European Parliament has gone in this direction, including on the part regarding the moratorium on food produced using nanotechnology, until possible health risks can be ruled out. This is not a matter of resisting scientific progress and its possible positive ramifications, but of regulating its impact on people by following criteria of the utmost caution. Too often in the past, products have been freely allowed onto the markets, only to be withdrawn because they are damaging to health. I hope that the Council will follow our lead in this matter."@en1
