"Thank you, Commissioner. I am grateful for your answer to the effect that this matter has now been placed on the Commission’s agenda or, more accurately, placed higher up on the agenda. Work which prevents young people from beginning to use drugs is a priority area in the fight against drug abuse. If we look at sport, we see that this is an activity which attracts a lot of young people. Sports stars are often role models for young people. It is therefore important that, in this area too, we should actively combat drug abuse.
Because I think that sport has a responsibility to help prevent drug taking within sport, I wonder if plans are being made for some type of collaboration with the sports bodies in Europe with a view to tackling the problem, which has become worse in recent years. Is the Commission planning to cooperate with the sports bodies?"@en1
