Answer given by Mr Borg on behalf of the Commission

12.12.2013

The Commission would refer the Honourable Member to its answer to Written Question E‐011216/2013[1].

The Commission has specifically contacted Spain in 2010 with regard to the findings of Compassion in World Farming. However, the Commission is developing guidelines on the provision of manipulable material in close collaboration with the Member States and this will ensure that due attention is given to the aforementioned topic.
