"Consumer protection is an area covering a number of major issues: ensuring food safety and the health and safety of products, tackling the problem of reducing inequalities among European consumers, and establishing a low carbon economy. That is why I voted in favour of the rapporteur’s proposal for an alternative resolution to pick up on a number of points that could not be adopted in the Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection due to opposition from the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats). It is, in particular, a question of ensuring that the consumer protection programme includes initiatives to protect minors against misleading advertising. Children, as a vulnerable group, are, in fact, an ideal target for advertisers, especially through the medium of television. Finally, the legislative vacuum existing in the field of collective redress should be filled by a Commission proposal to enable consumers to feel reassured that their rights are being better protected."@en1
