"Mr President, Commissioner, I am pleased that you are giving attention to our question. What we are doing together is, in my opinion, achieving proximity, or greater proximity to citizens.
I was once rapporteur for the approval of hydrogen-powered motor vehicles and I believe that we need to pay at least as much attention to cord blood stem cells. Indeed, you have said yourself that you were positively impressed by this fact, which is a source of excitement not only for those who are ill or for parents, but also for researchers, who are finding an increasing number of areas of application.
What you said about the European Commission encouraging Member States to take measures in this respect is very important. It really seems to be the case that what we largely see as waste today could later become a source of our or someone else’s health.
In this context, I believe that we need a strategy. We need to know what we are encouraging, what information we are giving to parents and other people and, of course, what research we are doing. I am confident that we have a great opportunity here to prove to people that we are on their side and that we are supporting the right way forward."@en1
