"Mr President, the protection of vulnerable population groups is an important task of society, and therefore the current rules regulating the production and sale of foodstuffs intended for infants and young children and of foodstuffs for special purposes that are no longer in line with the latest scientific knowledge need to be brought up to date. I would like to begin by applauding the efforts of the Commission to simplify and clarify these rules. Better knowledge of the action of various substances on the human body has allowed us to formulate the necessary limits more precisely and to lay down stricter rules, a result of which is the introduction of a ban on the presence of pesticides in foodstuffs intended for special purposes. Despite the Commission’s efforts to create a comprehensive law to regulate the production and sale of foodstuffs intended for infants and young children and of foodstuffs for special purposes, there remains the open question of incorporating foodstuffs for people intolerant to gluten, and milk drinks intended for young children, into the text of the proposed regulation. We must therefore continue to monitor very closely the development of knowledge in the area of the action of individual substances on the human body and be prepared to amend the current rules as and when necessary."@en1
