". We shall not discuss the medical arguments put forward in favour of restricting the use of antibiotics and other antimicrobial agents. However, the report mentions the need to save money on health care costs. Although this need could, generally, be justified, we nonetheless reject any argument for this. We know only too well that, when it comes to making savings on medical spending, it is always the health care of the working classes, and particularly the poorest sectors of society, that suffers. The result of these ‘careful recommendations’, which governments usually use as a pretext to take restrictive measures, does nothing to affect the excessive use of medicine by the rich, whilst the poor are deprived of even the most basic levels of care. We therefore abstained from voting on this report."@en1
