EU moves closer to lifting ban on GMOs (II)

MEPs are therefore calling on the Commission to submit a report after the implementation of this regulation to check whether loopholes exist and whether it is effective.
Mr. Trakatellis is confident that EU ministers will accept the text adopted by the European Parliament, thereby opening the door for this legislation to come into force by next autumn.
The new scheme will extend mandatory labelling to products such as oil and sugar, which do not require labelling under the current rules. The legislation will also allow EU countries to take measures to prevent contamination of conventional and organic crops by genetically modified organisms. MEPs have also backed EU ministers in calling for any foodstuffs containing more than 0.9% GM to be clearly labelled. However, some think this level is too high. Friends of the Earth had campaigned for much stricter levels of closer to 0.1%.EU agriculture ministers are set to approve the new legislation some time later this month.
therefore – z toho důvodu, proto to label – označit to submit – předložit implementation – zavedení loophole – zadní vrátka

confident – přesvědčený thereby – tím, takto to come into force – vejít v platnost to extend – rozšířit mandatory – povinný, závazný to require – požadovat current – současný

to take measures – učinit opatření crops – úroda to back – podpořit foodstuff – potraviny to campaign - zasazovat se o co stricter – přísnější
