WRITTEN QUESTION E-0771/99

by José García-Margallo y Marfil (PPE) to the Commission

(29 March 1999)

Subject: Traditionally made ice cream

An application for registration of the designation "helado artesano" pursuant to Council Regulation (EEC) 2082/92(1) on certificates of specific character was published in the Official Journal of the European Communities (OJ C 329/97) on 31 October 1997. No decision has yet been taken.

Is there any reason why it should not be possible for consumers to distinguish between traditionally made ice cream and industrially produced ice cream?

(1) OJ L 208, 24.7.1992, p. 9.
