Council resolution on the marketing practices for breast-milk substitutes in developing countries by Community-based manufacturers(86/C 285/08) THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMUNITIES, Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, Whereas the Commission has submitted a report on infant feeding and the implementation of the International Code of Marketing of Breast-milk Substitutes and a draft proposal for a Council Directive on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to infant formulae and follow-up milks; Whereas in May 1981 the 34th World Health Assembly adopted as a recommendation the International Code of Marketing of Breast-milk Substitutes; Whereas a considerable volume of these products are sold to developing countries by Community-based manufacturers; Whereas it is considered very important that marketing practices in developing countries should not discourage mothers from breastfeeding; Whereas the application of the International Code provides without doubt an excellent way to achieve this in these countries; Whereas the Community cannot legislate for these countries; Whereas the Community can offer an effective support to the competent authorities of these countries in their efforts to apply the International Code in their territory, HAS ADOPTED THE FOLLOWING RESOLUTION: 1. The Community will contribute, in so far as it is able, to the application of appropriate marketing practices for breast-milk substitutes in developing countries. 2. For the implementation of point 1, the Commission will instruct its delegations in the developing countries to serve as contact points for the competent authorities. Any complaints or criticisms with respect to the marketing practices of a manufacturer based in the Community could be notified to them. 3. The Commission will be ready to examine such cases and to assist in the search for a satisfactory solution for all parties concerned. 4.

7.1.87 Official Journal of the European Communities No C 3/3 
COUNCIL RESOLUTION 
of 16 December 1986 
on the strengthening of Community action in favour of the environment 
(87/C 3/02) 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European 
Economic Community, 
Having regard to the proposals of the Commission, 
Whereas it is desirable that a new Community environ­
mental action programme should follow on from the 
third action programme (1982-1986); 
Welcomes the submission by the Commission of detailed 
proposals for a Fourth Environmental Action 
Programme and considers that such a programme 
provides an opportunity to strengthen decisively 
Community action in this area, building on the 
achievements of the past, and to determine a coherent 
framework within which specific Community actions can 
be formulated, coordinated and implemented over the 
period 1987 to 1992; 
Recalls in this connection that the Single European Act, 
which will constitute a new legal basis for the 
Community's environment policy, provides in Article 25 
that Community actions in this field should have as their 
objectives: 
— to preserve, protect and improve the quality of the 
environment, 
— to contribute towards protecting human health, 
— to ensure a prudent and rational utilization of natural 
resources; Recognizes that, if these objectives are to be achieved, it 
will be necessary to take action to combat pollution 
whenever it may occur, while ensuring that preventive 
measures introduced in one part of the environment do 
not produce damaging effects in another and that appro­
priate measures should be taken to protect and enhance 
Europe's natural heritage; 
Reaffirms furthermore its conviction that environmental 
protection has to become an essential component of the 
economic, industrial, agricultural and social policies 
implemented by the Community and its Member States 
and acknowledges that it can contribute to better 
economic growth and help create jobs; 
Underlines in particular the need for environmental 
education and training and for greater public awareness 
of, and public participation in, environmental issues, 
recalling that these are central themes of the European 
Year of the Environment 1987; 
Stresses the importance of ensuring that both existing and 
proposed measures are properly implemented and subject 
to regular evaluation, taking particular account of the 
potential benefits and costs of action or of lack of 
action; 
Calls upon the European Parliament and the Economic 
and Social Commitee to deliver their opinions on the 
Commission proposals as a matter of priority; 
Undertakes to consider further the Commission proposals 
with a view to identifying, if possible before 30 June 
1987, guidelines and priorities for strengthening 
Community action in favour of the environment.
