[-added]: Given the very real concerns of cross-contamination of conventional crops by GM crops, including cross-border contamination, we welcome the broad consensus to make anti-contamination measures mandatory. Member states that still do not have such measures in place have to adopt them. MEPs also supported a Green proposal calling on member states to establish a strict liability system to ensure the polluter pays for damages that might occur due to the cultivation or placing on the market of GMOs,

euractiv 13-APR-11

[said:]: These revelations have dealt a severe blow to the credibility of the European Parliament, the EU's only democratically elected institution. There can be zero tolerance for corruption and it is crucial that no stone is left unturned in investigating the allegations raised by the Sunday Times, and the wider implications of the issues raised in some of the taped meetings.

[ said]: It is little more than window-dressing to ban cloning in Europe but allow the import of reproductive material from clones and selling food from the offspring of clones,

ChinaPost 30-MAR-11

[said:]: The sheer obstinacy of member state governments in Council on the issue of clone food has led to the collapse of the negotiations on EU rules on novel foods. There is overwhelming public concern about food from clones and their descendants (1), and a clear majority of the European Parliament voted for the introduction of a ban on clone food in response to these concerns (2). However, in spite of this clear public opposition to clone food, Council was unwilling to even discuss a proper labelling scheme for f

green 29-MAR-11

[ said]: Council's intransigence on regulating food from the descendants of clones is wrongheaded, as it is ultimately these descendants, and not the original clones, that will be used for food production,

AP 29-MAR-11

[said:]: The sheer obstinacy of member state governments in Council and their refusal to even discuss a ban on clone food has lead to eleventh hour deadlock in the negotiations on EU rules on novel foods. There is overwhelming public concern about food from clones and their descendants (1), and a clear majority of the European Parliament has voted for the introduce a ban on clone food in response to these concerns (2). However, Council is simply putting its fingers in its ears; a blocking minority is even preventing

green 17-MAR-11

[said:]: The EU is wrong to roll out the red carpet for dictators. Accepting an official visit from a dictator like Karimov, whose regime has consistently flouted basic human rights in Uzbekistan, is wrong-headed. The timing could also not be worse, with the EU condemning another dictatorship in Belarus and welcoming the fall of the Ben Ali regime in Tunisia. The message sent is contradictory and reflects the inconsistency of EU foreign policy.

europarl 09-NOV-10

[commented:]: Today's proposal for a temporary ban is certainly a step towards recognising the serious concerns with cloning but it is regrettable that the Commission has failed to include the offspring from cloned animals, as this is crucial to addressing these concerns. The result is that cloning will still be allowed to take place, causing unnecessary harm to animals, and that the food from the offspring of clones will make its way on to our plates, even though the long term health risks have not been properly assesse

green 19-OCT-10

[added:]: Today's vote keeps up the pressure for an offshore deep sea drilling moratorium in Europe and we hope the vote will be replicated when the resolution is voted by all MEPs in plenary. The consequences of a spill would be devastating and would clearly extend beyond national borders, which is why tightening EU rules on safety and liability is necessary, all the more so in the aftermath of the Deepwater Horizon disaster, which has underlined the very real risks. We regret that the ongoing OSPAR ministerial meet
