lpv:translated text	"Thank you very much, Commissioner. I note with satisfaction that the Commission is going to continue to provide ECPAT with resources. Let me just say, however, that the child sex trade has not disappeared just because the newspaper headlines have disappeared. It is therefore incredibly important that the Commission should continue with this work. I nonetheless have a problem with the proposal put to us by Commissioner Nielsen, to the effect that this must all take place via Euroaid. If I have been informed correctly, Euroaid requires that the implementing organisation be an NGO in a developing country. That would rule out ECPAT, which does not carry on its main activities in the developing countries. Nor has my own country been spared. We have recently received a report from ECPAT, estimating that approximately 400 children in Sweden aged from 4 months to 17 years have been exploited. These are frightening revelations, showing that we cannot withdraw support but must continue to give increased support to these organisations. I therefore take the Commissioner’s words as a promise that this will happen. The organisational form is something to which you will have to attend."@en1
