Amendment 128 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 34
(34) Mandatory origin provisions have been developed on the basis of vertical approaches for instance for honey, fruits and vegetables, fish, beef and beef products and olive oil. There is a need to explore the possibility to extend mandatory origin labelling for other foodstuffs. It is therefore appropriate to request the Commission to prepare reports coveringAccordingly, with a view to protecting consumers, the origin provisions must be mandatory for the following foodstuffs: types of meat other than beef, swine, sheep, goat and poultry meat; milk; milk used as an ingredient in dairy products; meat used as an ingredient; unprocessed foods; single ingredient products; and ingredients that represent more than 50 % of a food. Milk being one of the products for which an indication of origin is considered of particular interest, the Commission report on this product should be made available as soon as possible. Based on the conclusions of such reports, the Commission may submit proposals to modify the relevant Union provisions or may take new initiatives, where appropriate, on a sectoral basis.
