A number of delegations supported the Polish request but there were others which, together with the Commission, while acknowledging the report drawn up by Poland, noted that the current sugar regime had to take into account a number of aspects, notably the "Everything but arms" agreement, the agreement with ACP countries and the production and imports of cane sugar.
Mitmed delegatsioonid toetasid Poola taotlust, kuid teised, kellega ühines ka komisjon, teadvustasid küll Poola esitatud aruannet, kuid märkisid, et praeguse suhkrule kehtiva korra puhul tuleb arvesse võtta mitmeid tegureid, eelkõige kokkulepet „Kõik peale relvade”, kokkulepet AKV riikidega ning roosuhkru tootmist ja importi.
