lpv:translated text	"Madam President, first of all, I should like to congratulate Mrs Gröner on her report which contains a number of very positive proposals. I am mainly referring to the removal of all drugs-related topics. Drug use and violence have, despite a certain overlap, been kept apart, with good reason. The emphasis on the fight against human trafficking within this programme is, in my view, the other main gain. I would, however, like to take this opportunity to underline the importance of real action. The efforts many have made to take action against forced prostitution and human trafficking at the time of the World Cup have not been rewarded with constructive action by the parties involved. It is hoped that this House and the Commission, in coalition, can persuade, and possibly compel, Member States, NGOs and citizens to respect the rights of fellow human beings in order to reduce exploitation of this kind. I am less positive about the views on the distribution of responsibilities. It is my deep conviction that it is no business of government to encroach upon the personal privacy of individual people without good reason. There is only cause for this once the boundaries of criminal law have been crossed. Since these boundaries vary from one Member State to another, it is up to them to guarantee enforcement in this respect. Since it is impossible to find justification for an active role for Europe in this area, my group has applied for separate votes for a number of those amendments, which I will be in favour of once those elements have been removed."@en1
