"Madam President, I voted for the Roth-Behrendt report, although, as before, my vote in favour of the motion is also a call for improvement of European legislation in the field of the implementation of the precautionary principle. It is, of course, right for us to consider our health as human beings and to slaughter the huge number of animals at risk; it is right for us to adopt this measure and thereby establish rules to bring farmers and stock breeders into line, but we also need to keep our feet firmly on the ground. What I mean is, right now, I can imagine farmers running along behind their cows – Daisy or Buttercup, maybe – and fussing over feeding them hay, fodder and products from their fields, whereas they may well not have had time to have their animal’s health checked. So let us combine practical action with a desire for improvement."@en1
