"I welcomed the proposal for a resolution, however, I have some reservations about this report. Firstly, I would like to highlight the obligation to provide full and objective information on food products. One very sensitive case is the question of the advertising of formulae for infants of 0 to six months and formulae for infants of six months to two years. The facts show that advertising practices tend to concern parents by using marketing strategies rather than providing them with information of a scientific and factual nature, allowing consumers to make a clear distinction in order to avoid any risk of confusion. The health of our children is at risk. Lastly, I think that the Ries report should provide for more effective evaluation mechanisms. This evaluation should not be carried out
only taking into consideration the consumers the products are aimed at, but on the basis of a careful and comprehensive evaluation of all the ingredients of the product in question. The regulation that Parliament will adopt should take greater account of consumer protection and health, and the marketing strategies put in place by the food industry."@en1
