Parliament discuss on a draft resolution calling for more funds for the EU school scheme for fruit, vegetables and milk and for the distribution of unprocessed, organic and local products. The draft text also urges for less bureaucracy, longer contracts for schools and easier procurement procedures as well as for member states to invest at least 10% of their yearly budget allocated to the school scheme in nutrition education. Opening statements by Carmen AVRAM (S&D, RO) and Thierry BRETON, European Commissioner for Internal Market.
