At least they managed to vote this time which is more than they managed in October. 28 countries were eligible to vote. 14 FOR, 9 AGAINST, 5 ABSTAINED. </p><p>Last year Malta was the only country to vote against the re-licensing of the crucial active ingredient. A qualified majority is required with each country being allocated a number of votes depending on the size of their population so the abstentions will be crucial to the re-vote scheduled for the end of the month.</p><p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-eu-health-glyphosate/eu-hits-deadlock-over-roundup-herbicide-licence-extension-idUKKBN1D91ON?il=0" target="_blank">Reuters News</a> </p></div>
