"Consumer protection, animal health and the eradication of Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies are our main goals and must, therefore, be of overriding importance when considering changes to the current rules.
For this reason, we call on the Commission and the Member States to continue to monitor their development closely, with particular attention to the spread of bovine spongiform encephalopathy. We believe that the highest level of consumer protection and food safety should always be the overarching goal of any measures in this field. Therefore, where scientific knowledge is not broad or advanced enough, the precautionary principle shall always prevail.
The Commission shall be bound to inform Parliament about new findings on this matter; the proposed changes to the feed ban can be supported under certain conditions; processed animal proteins derived from animal parts fit for human consumption have to undergo additional sterilisation methods and any changes to the SRM list must be considered carefully.
Lastly, we believe it is necessary to foster research in those areas where knowledge remains incomplete. Only in this way can future policy decisions be made and justified."@en1
