lpv:translated text	"Consumer rights protection is a problem which affects the whole of Europe, and is one which requires new strategies and new measures. The problem affects every one of us, because we are all consumers. We have to know our rights and the rules of the litigation open to us. Recent research conducted by the European Commission shows that it is necessary to strengthen the position of consumers, extend their knowledge and improve their access to information. Results published by the European Commission for 2011 show a clear improvement in almost all Member States. However, they also show a lack of awareness of consumer rights at a time of active development, computerisation and growth of the Internet. Therefore it is extremely important to have access to information, so that every decision can be made in an informed way. The need for all kinds of measures which contribute to increased awareness is a challenge for the European Union and is a challenge concerning specific action to improve the position of consumers. The report shows strategies and possible means for making consumers aware of their rights and obligations by many different measures, such as promoting healthy food and healthy eating, for example. There is a need for clear and transparent information about benefits to health to make consumers aware of the choices with which they are faced. Food information should be clear and easy to understand so that it can enable consumers to make the right choice. This problem particularly affects children, who are, of course, also consumers, but are only developing their awareness in this area."@en1
