Meeting request - INTERBEV - French Livestock Association - TTIP
To the attention of Mrs Cecilia Malmström, Commissionner - European Commission -
TRADE
Dear Commissionner,
On behalf of INTERBEV, we are pleased to contact you as regard the current negotiations towards
a Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP).
INTERBEV is the French Interbranch organisation for Livestock and Meats, recognised by the state
since 1980. It is composed of 20 federations and trade unions, representing the whole livestock and
meats sector. Its role is to defend and promote the interests of French livestock farmhouses,
industrial and commercial activities of the beef, cattle, sheep and equine sectors.
Since 2014, INTERBEV has been working intensively on different analysis of potential impacts on
the livestock sector of a free trade agreement with the US. This work focus on the European
livestock model which is likely to be endangered by an FTA, provide an estimate of direct and
indirect job losses in France and identify the most sensitive tariff lines to be protected during the
final negotiations.
In this context, Mr Langlois, President of the association, would be pleased to present
you the main conclusions of these analysis and initiate an exchange of views on the EU
position as regard the protection of the European livestock sector. As Mr Langlois will be in
Brussels on
Tuesday 26 January, he would be available for a meeting in the afternoon,
after 3.15
pm. Obviously, if such schedule would not be convenient for you, we would welcome any
alternative.
We thank you very much for your consideration.
We are looking forward to reading you.
Yours sincerely.
