I should like to point out that if labelling is of such great importance to consumers it is because it is their guarantee that product traceability has been tightened up, that the operators in the industry and also the European and national public authorities have become more accountable, and that control systems have been improved.
Jeg vil gerne minde om én ting, og det er, at når mærkning betyder så meget for forbrugeren, er det, fordi den er en sikkerhed for, at produktets sporbarhed styrkes, at samtlige led i produktionskæden samt de nationale og europæiske myndigheder ansvarliggøres, og at kontrolsystemet samtidig forbedres.
