Placing on the market and administration of bovine somatrotrophin BST (amend. Directive 90/128/EEC)

Parliament welcomed this proposal. However, it tabled an important amendment in order also to prevent the import from third countries both of milk produced by cows to which BST had been administered and of products made from such milk or containing that type of milk product. Furthermore, the EP considered that the proposal should specify that there was no link between the ban on BST and the milk quota system. �
