Afinur, March 31, 2007 – Expo

Speakers:

  • Mr. Enric Canela – Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology i-Universitat of Barcelona.
  • Rosa Nuria Aleixandre – Senator Convergence and Union Representative in the Committee for Health and Consumer Affairs of the Senate.
  • Mr. Raimon – President of AFINUR

    What is Organic Agriculture?

Mr. Canela intervened to support the idea that the sector needs a clear regulatory and from a scientific point of view the majority of ingredients being used in food supplements and demonstrated a sufficient scientific basis to be harmful to health in the quantities that are being taken.

Ms. Aleixandre deeper into the subject by pointing out that the demand for AFINUR (Spanish Association of Phytotherapy and Responsible Nutrition) has been promoted from a political point of view a request to the Spanish Government to make an amendment of Royal Decree 1275/2003 on food supplements, to solve a problem created by the Administration: the inadequate transposition of EU legislation on food supplements through the Royal Decree. This is based mainly on:

  • In its Annex 3 provides daily quantities of nutrients taken as maximum amounts, not as recommended, it should be removed.
  • Produces the second clause, which is taken as the maximum values (not recommended) and is used erroneously as a limit to the manufacturer a maximum values which must not exceed one hundred percent.
  • Creates a situation in our industry of helplessness in relation to goods from the rest of Europe, which violates the principles of free trade.
  • It is being breached European regulations which must be the same for all states. The senator explained
  • It is an amendment in the Senate as a House resolution that compels the government to implement it. He related the curious fact that he had to stop the voting in the first instance of the amendment as the government insisted that the implementation was correct. This meant that he had to explain again that the spirit of the directive is to establish recommended amounts. Once this was clarified to proceed with the vote on the amendment.

Mr. Lobo Félix states that the director of the Spanish Agency for Food Security and Nutrition (AESAN) should have received a response on a draft royal decree three weeks ago, but continue to insist that .

The conference commented on the following topics:

  • Henna Tattoo

    Henna Tattoo
  • The idea of a chance to denounce the administrative civil service establishment by the continued blockade of the industry. In particular reference was made to have to go to Europe to report products that are not allowed here and then want to obtain certificates of free sale, are not cast.
  • It was emphasized by the fact that 20 years after the legal situation remains equally immobilized and that since it was the presence of a policy, they could pressure the government more.
  • It was emphasized in the sense of immobility at the administrative level and injury to the Spanish industry in general.
  • It was called for appropriate actions for the repeal of the 1973 Ministerial Order on plants by blocking the sector that it entails.
