Foods and food ingredients treated with ionising radiation. Framework Directive

The Parliament approved the joint text approved by the Conciliation Committee for a Directive concerning foods and food ingredients treated with ionising radiation. The Parliament's Rapporteur was Ms. U. BLOCH von BLOTTNITZ (D, Green). The agreement reached in conciliation would enable standard rules to be drawn up on ionised food and thus increase the chances of devising an acceptable system of labelling. �
