Mr President, there is talk here and there about information from Stockholm and Sweden concerning how many stem cell lines there are. I wonder about the date to which the answer obtained by Mr Liese is relevant. A lot has happened since 2002. I have received an answer from the Carolingian Institute to the effect that they only have three well-characterised stem cell lines now available to them. That is significantly fewer. I hope that the Commission discriminates according to date in this area.
