"Madam President, the EU needs a strategic approach to consumer policy, for it to be closely coordinated with other EU policies. Consumers’ dissatisfaction with the functioning of many services, above all, banking and financial services, and with the quality and safety of some products, which results from a lack of awareness of the rights of consumers and the obligations of suppliers, must produce a reaction in the form of a political and legal response from the EU to this issue.
In my opinion, the priority of consumer policy should continue to be the protection of consumers – especially children – from hazardous products. A high level of consumer product safety must therefore be effectively guaranteed in the EU by the relevant market surveillance authorities and agencies in the area of the food, chemicals and pharmaceuticals industries and in agriculture, since these areas have a direct impact on the health of EU citizens on a daily basis through their products."@en1
