Hi Christoph,

Thanks again. I reshuffled and clarified a few things in the attached version. Please check if this is useful and to which extent you want to adopt the suggested changes. I would volunteer to take the third (or first) quote (but open to anyone else taking them). We will likely publish a (slightly amended) press release in Dutch on our website on Friday - taking this PR as a basis. As this concerns Dutch breeding companies, we hope to raise the attention of the Dutch press on this issue. Let’s stay connected on this.

Best, Nout
