Bioforum appreciates several proposed amendments. In particular, we welcome the Commissions proposal regarding the veterinary withdrawal period. We also welcome the proposal to simplify rules on group certification. Nevertheless, we recommend retaining the current 2% rule regarding certification costs in relation to organic turnover as the costs of certification can exceed this limit.

What they argued
BioForum welcomes the Commissions initiative to safeguard international trade relations by providing clarity about organic goods imported under the equivalence scheme and by postponing the deadline to conclude on new trade agreements. We also appreciate the Commissions intention to reduce unnecessary burdens and simplify the organic regulatory framework.
