Details

The rapporteur, Mr Schnellhardt (EPP, D), thought that the conciliation process had turned out very well for Parliament and, by extension, for the consumer. The most important amendments were to be taken over by the Directive, and more especially the derogations granted were to be included directly in the final text together with those provisions relating to starch. The rapporteur concluded by recalling that Commissioner Bangemann had been in favour of a proposal for a directive on the labelling of alcoholic products. Commissioner Monti declared that the Commission had been won over by the current compromise and had welcomed the improvement in the information being provided to consumers and the fact that this directive would promote the free movement of foodstuffs within the single market. Finally, he said that the Commission had undertaken to present a new proposal for a directive on the labelling of alcoholic drinks.

   EP/CSL - Formal meeting of Conciliation Committee
Details

Delegations from Parliament and the Council, sitting in the Conciliation Committee, reached an agreement on Wednesday evening on the labelling and advertising of foodstuffs. This agreement reflected Parliament’s commitment to the basic principle of free trade in the European Union, as had been set out in the ruling from the Court of Justice of 26 October 1996 on ‘béarnaise sauce’, while the Council, representing the Member States, apparently wished to restrict the scope of this decision. The Court of Justice had in fact taken the view that Germany had infringed Article 30 of the EC Treaty, which prohibited quantitative restrictions on imports along with all measures of equivalent effect. In Germany the recipe for béarnaise sauce was traditionally based on butter and eggs. That country was now requiring that imported sauces produced using a different recipe should state ‘vegetable oil-based béarnaise sauce’ rather than the generic title ‘béarnaise sauce’. The Court took the view that Germany was not justified in requiring this form of labelling because it considered that the term ‘béarnaise sauce’ was sufficient information in itself. The conciliation text therefore stipulated that, apart from in exceptional cases, a product could be sold in other Member States under the legal name that applied to it in the country of production. However, in order to take account of pressure from certain Member States following the ‘béarnaise sauce’ ruling the compromise specified that the sales name could also feature other information affixed to it. The parliamentary delegation was insistent, however, that such measures could only be introduced insofar as the list of ingredients (and other provisions contained in the directive) did not allow consumers in the Member State in which the product was being marketed to check the true nature of the food product in question and if there was a risk of confusion with other products. For its part the parliamentary delegation considered that once the ‘béarnaise sauce’ ruling had clearly indicated that the list of ingredients should be sufficient to prevent any confusion on the part of the consumer, this descriptive information would not be applied. Moreover, the parliamentary delegation was of the opinion that the wording of the Treaty should prevail over any secondary legislation. In addition, in respect of persons suffering from allergies Parliament had obtained an agreement from the Council to the effect that products containing starches, which were also likely to contain gluten, should always be described with their specific vegetable origin. The Conciliation Committee met after Parliament had adopted five amendments to the common position previously adopted by the Council, this having been done at the second reading on 25 October 1995. However, the parliamentary delegation stressed that it would only recommend adoption in plenary if the Commission undertook to present a specific proposal on the labelling of alcoholic drinks, as these were not covered by the present Directive.

   EP/CSL - Final decision by Conciliation Committee

   CSL - Parliament's amendments rejected by Council
Details

The Council noted that it was unable to agree to all the amendments made by the European Parliament to its common position on the amendment of Directive 79/112/EEC on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the labelling, presentation and advertising of foodstuffs. It therefore decided, together with the European Parliament, to convene the Conciliation Committee, pursuant to Article 189b of the Treaty.

Details

The rapporteur stated that the aim was not to frighten consumers but simply to inform them, since the goal was to facilitate trade within the Union for both producers and consumers. The most important amendments related to the labelling of genetically modified organisms (Amendment No 4), and the labelling of alcoholic beverages, especially wine (Amendments Nos 6, 14, 15 and 16). Commissioner Bangemann confirmed that the Commission could take over Amendments Nos 2, 5, 11, 18, 19, and 21; it could not, however, take over Amendments Nos 3, 4, 6, 14, 15, 16, 17 and 22.

The most important amendments related to the labelling of genetically modified organisms (Amendment No 4), and the labelling of alcoholic beverages, especially wine (Amendments Nos 6, 14, 15 and 16). Commissioner Bangemann confirmed that the Commission could take over Amendments Nos 2, 5, 11, 18, 19, and 21; it could not, however, take over Amendments Nos 3, 4, 6, 14, 15, 16, 17 and 22.

  • date: 1995-12-22T00:00:00 type: Parliament's amendments rejected by Council body: CSL summary: The Council noted that it was unable to agree to all the amendments made by the European Parliament to its common position on the amendment of Directive 79/112/EEC on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the labelling, presentation and advertising of foodstuffs. It therefore decided, together with the European Parliament, to convene the Conciliation Committee, pursuant to Article 189b of the Treaty.
  • date: 1996-10-16T00:00:00 type: Formal meeting of Conciliation Committee body: EP/CSL summary: Delegations from Parliament and the Council, sitting in the Conciliation Committee, reached an agreement on Wednesday evening on the labelling and advertising of foodstuffs. This agreement reflected Parliament’s commitment to the basic principle of free trade in the European Union, as had been set out in the ruling from the Court of Justice of 26 October 1996 on ‘béarnaise sauce’, while the Council, representing the Member States, apparently wished to restrict the scope of this decision. The Court of Justice had in fact taken the view that Germany had infringed Article 30 of the EC Treaty, which prohibited quantitative restrictions on imports along with all measures of equivalent effect. In Germany the recipe for béarnaise sauce was traditionally based on butter and eggs. That country was now requiring that imported sauces produced using a different recipe should state ‘vegetable oil-based béarnaise sauce’ rather than the generic title ‘béarnaise sauce’. The Court took the view that Germany was not justified in requiring this form of labelling because it considered that the term ‘béarnaise sauce’ was sufficient information in itself. The conciliation text therefore stipulated that, apart from in exceptional cases, a product could be sold in other Member States under the legal name that applied to it in the country of production. However, in order to take account of pressure from certain Member States following the ‘béarnaise sauce’ ruling the compromise specified that the sales name could also feature other information affixed to it. The parliamentary delegation was insistent, however, that such measures could only be introduced insofar as the list of ingredients (and other provisions contained in the directive) did not allow consumers in the Member State in which the product was being marketed to check the true nature of the food product in question and if there was a risk of confusion with other products. For its part the parliamentary delegation considered that once the ‘béarnaise sauce’ ruling had clearly indicated that the list of ingredients should be sufficient to prevent any confusion on the part of the consumer, this descriptive information would not be applied. Moreover, the parliamentary delegation was of the opinion that the wording of the Treaty should prevail over any secondary legislation. In addition, in respect of persons suffering from allergies Parliament had obtained an agreement from the Council to the effect that products containing starches, which were also likely to contain gluten, should always be described with their specific vegetable origin. The Conciliation Committee met after Parliament had adopted five amendments to the common position previously adopted by the Council, this having been done at the second reading on 25 October 1995. However, the parliamentary delegation stressed that it would only recommend adoption in plenary if the Commission undertook to present a specific proposal on the labelling of alcoholic drinks, as these were not covered by the present Directive.

The most important amendments were to be taken over by the Directive, and more especially the derogations granted were to be included directly in the final text together with those provisions relating to starch. The rapporteur concluded by recalling that Commissioner Bangemann had been in favour of a proposal for a directive on the labelling of alcoholic products. Commissioner Monti declared that the Commission had been won over by the current compromise and had welcomed the improvement in the information being provided to consumers and the fact that this directive would promote the free movement of foodstuffs within the single market. Finally, he said that the Commission had undertaken to present a new proposal for a directive on the labelling of alcoholic drinks.
