>BRUSSELS - THE European Commission said Thursday that it planned a ban on certain Chinese food products for children following a milk contamination scandal in China.

'The measures will ... impose an explicit total ban on all products originating from China for infants and young children containing any percentage of milk,' a commission spokeswoman told journalists.

The measure was intended 'to ensure that such products are not imported in any form,' she added. -- AFP
