In any event, the principal Directive which deals with the question of discrimination against, inter alia,
people with disabilities (Council Directive 2000/78/EC of 27 November 2001) (1) applies only to the
employment field. It cannot, of course, be excluded that the Commission will at a future date present a
proposal for a Directive with a broader scope but, at the time of writing, no such proposal has been
received.

employment and occupation (OJ L 303, 2.12.2000, p. 16).

by Rosemarie Müller (PSE) to the Commission

(19 October 2001)

Subject:

’100 % vegetarian’ food labelling

labelled ‘100 % vegetarian’ contains animal gelatine,

If a foodstuff
is that a breach of Directive
2000/13/EC (1) of the European Parliament and the Council? Article 2(1)(a) of this Directive states that
labelling must not mislead as to the ‘characteristics of the foodstuff and, in particular, as to its nature,
identity, properties, composition, quantity, durability, origin or provenance, method of manufacture or
production’ or ‘by attributing to the foodstuff effects or properties which it does not possess’.

WRITTEN QUESTION P-2983/01

by Laura González Álvarez (GUE/NGL) to the Commission

Subject: Canalisation of the river Barxell (Alroy-Alicante)

(22 October 2001)

The Directorate-General for Hydraulic Works commissioned the ‘Confederación Hidrográfica del Júcar’ to
draw up a project to canalise the rivers in Alcoy. The project will result in a 1500 metre urban section of
the river Barxell flowing through a concrete channel.

As a result of protests by various citizens’ organisations and the lack of rigour in the study evaluating the
environmental effects, the environmental department of Alcoy town council delivered a negative opinion
and initiated a period of public debate during which a number of modifications were put forward. In 2000
the ‘Confederación Hidrográfica’ submitted a version of the modified project to the town council without
having presented it beforehand for public debate. In any event the river is to run through a concrete
channel.

As a result of this project and along the 1500-metre stretch of the river:

D the function of environmental corridor linking two areas included in the list of SCIs proposed by the
Region of Valencia for inclusion in the Natura 2000 network will disappear and hence Directive
92/43/EEC (1) on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild fauna and flora could be infringed;
