"In favour. The 2010 International Cocoa Agreement will replace the existing 2001 agreement, to which the EU is a party. The new agreement’s objectives are to promote international cooperation in the world cocoa economy; to provide an appropriate framework for discussion on all cocoa matters among governments and with the private sector; to contribute to the strengthening of the national cocoa economies of member countries; to strive to obtain fair prices leading to equitable economic returns for both producers and consumers; to promote an economically, socially and environmentally sustainable cocoa economy; to promote transparency in the world cocoa economy through the collection, analysis and dissemination of relevant statistics and the undertaking of appropriate studies; to strive to eliminate trade barriers; to promote and to encourage the consumption of chocolate and cocoa-based products; to encourage members to enhance cocoa quality. Overall, the agreement aims to bring more transparency and sustainability into a sector on which 50 million livelihoods depend throughout the world. The International Cocoa Organisation (ICCO), established in 1973 and located in London, UK, will administer the provisions and supervise the operation of this agreement. All parties to the agreement are members of the ICCO."@en1
