We Swedish Social Democrats should ideally have liked to have seen Parliament support the stronger proposals in both the Commission’s original proposal and the Council’s common position. It has not, however, been possible to reach an agreement containing these proposals.
We believe that the compromise reached is the best outcome we can achieve right now. The compromise considerably strengthens consumer protection and makes it simpler for consumers to make healthy choices, if that is what they wish to do. We therefore supported the compromise and voted in favour of all aspects of it.
