lpv:translated text	". Mr President, sadly I am hearing once again from the Commission the words ‘track’, ‘monitor’ and ‘studies’, while what we actually need now is action, and indeed action on two levels: action in respect of Europe’s farmers, who are currently suffering from great uncertainty over their markets, but also action in respect of the citizens, who are worriedly asking themselves whether this animal disease will not, in fact, have public health consequences. If I look at the ten countries that have closed their borders to European products, I see that some countries only close their borders to live animals, while others do so for live animals, animal products and meat. Some countries refuse access to products from three Member States of the Union. Others do so from five Member States; still others do so from eight. What is more, all of these third countries lay down different conditions for the removal of the restrictions. What specific action is the Commission taking right now to get these restrictions lifted? The Commission always points out its sole competence in this area. It does not like countries going out and negotiating on their own, yet as long as national ministers believe that they will achieve things more quickly on their own than communally through the Commission, they will continue to try to do so. In other words, Commission, you need to prove that you deserve to have this sole competence by streamlining what happens, for example by means of encouraging standardised certificates for those countries. My final point concerns public health. I was pleased to hear the Commissioner say we are not dealing with a case of zoonosis here. This disease probably cannot be transmitted from animals to humans, but we need to be clear here and all communicate in the same way rather than every country for itself."@en1
