lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Commissioner, I had a great many things to say, but I shall confine myself to very few, because I do not want to go over the background, which you already know. However, we do know that what is going on is a trade, of that there can be no doubt. It was polite of Mrs McAvan to try and persuade us that these things are not going on but, as a doctor, I know what is going on and it needs to be banned because this is also in keeping with the views of the European Parliament. Furthermore, I received an e-mail today from Mrs Záborská, which she sent to all Members about a resolution by the General Assembly of the United Nations – resolution 59516 – on this specific subject, but which Mrs Záborská did not mention in her speech. If this is the case, then we also need to allow the trade in other organs, for a fee, such as when obtaining kidneys. We know the brutal haggling which goes on over kidney transplants, especially in the Far East and in the Middle East. We know of a great many such occurrences. However, I also wish to comment on the side effects for healthy women who use this method not for their own purposes – for the purpose of fertilisation – but in order to become donors. The side effects, which are significant, have been reported by other Members. Deaths have also been reported, without yet having been scientifically substantiated, but I believe that this is a serious reason for women to think twice before taking such a decision. It is a pity today, when we are celebrating Women's Day, to be debating a subject such as the exploitation of poor women in Romania."@en1
