"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the measure in question is designed to replace three obsolete directives and relates to the labelling of textile products entering the European Union and the registration and naming of the substances they are made of.
A text was adopted at first reading which called for labels to indicate the place of origin as well as a complete and mandatory list of the product’s composition. Unfortunately, the Council’s position appears to contradict the text approved by Parliament since, in particular, it is against any reference to origin marking and the introduction of traceability in textile product labelling.
Just to get the measure approved at the second reading, the Internal Market and Consumer Protection (IMCO) Committee has agreed to a text which does not satisfy us because it does not provide for origin marking. We will therefore vote against it, because the aim of providing consumers with correct and accurate information about the origin and composition of the product has not been met."@en1
