"European agricultural products are among the highest quality in the whole world. One of the reasons for this is the tradition of agriculture and of optimising the resources used stretching back many years. In order for consumers to have certainty about where a product comes from and what it contains, there are Europe-wide quality labels such as the protected designation of origin (PDO), the protected geographical indication (PGI), the traditional speciality guaranteed (TSG), organic farming and the outermost regions. Given that it is still, to some extent, difficult for end consumers to negotiate the jungle of information on each product, I agree with the rapporteur that we need greater clarity, as well as a simplification. Above all, the regulation of quality under the ‘traditional speciality guaranteed’ label should apply to all processed products. I also agree with the rapporteur that there needs to be a clear definition of what ‘production steps’ means. The introduction of an EU-wide label that can only be borne by products that have gone though the same registration procedure, on the same terms, would be a welcome move. I therefore voted in favour of this report."@en1
