"We can no longer let commercial industries mislead European consumers. Whether it is mothers and fathers buying baby milk or people suffering from coeliac disease (gluten intolerance), we have a duty to protect them from any misleading advertising. It is with this in mind that I voted for this proposal for a regulation. This project is in line with our protection and prevention efforts: in the future, labelling for all milk-based formulae for infants up to the age of 12 months, including ‘follow-on’ formulae, should not include pictures of infants or pictures which may ‘idealise the use’ of the product. What is more, food products intended for people intolerant to gluten should contain less than 100 mg/kg of gluten and be labelled ‘very low gluten content’, while food containing less than 20 mg/kg of gluten may be labelled ‘gluten free’. We have created a Europe of free and unfettered competition between economic actors; we are working even harder towards a Europe that protects consumers from the failings of this competition."@en1
