acrylamide levels challenge

Yesterday,  Monday 28 September, the environment committee backed a cross-party (Greens, S&D, Renew, GUE, NI and some of the EPP) challenge to maximum levels of acrylamide in certain foodstuffs for infants and young children.

Peter Liese (EPP) supported the Commission’s proposal (he welcomed limit values). The ECR rejected the objection, backing the Commission’s proposal, as the first step.

The challenge was easily adopted.

 

The vote in plenary is set for 1 October 2020.
