"Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, it is with regret that I have again witnessed Parliament reject an amendment on labelling of products from cattle fed with genetically modified feed, this time in the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety. I wonder who it is who does not want the public to know what they are eating, who it is who does not want the public to be able to make choices, who is supporting corporate interests or what companies think is in their interest, by which I mean their operating under wraps. The same applies to traceability. This is a very important issue because, with proper traceability and electronic labelling, we really can prevent death, loss of life from disease and epidemics. I should like to congratulate the socialist rapporteur Ms Roth-Behrendt on her excellent work. I trust that the vote in plenary will reverse the unsatisfactory outcome in the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety and that it will act in a way that provides real protection for the rights of European citizens and public health in Europe."@en1
