"Mr President, I too first of all would like to thank the rapporteur, Mrs Kallenbach, for a very well drafted report. It is important for everyone’s future to prevent the illegal manufacture of, and the trade in, firearms. The report will help achieve this objective.
We Finns have been concerned about whether or not young people should be allowed to continue to hunt for pleasure. The sport is subject to licence in Finland and closely supervised, and there is guidance available from experienced hunters in the safe and responsible use of weapons. I think it is important that this best practice and long tradition in Finland will also be able to continue after the new directive has been adopted. It is important that tomorrow we agree a carefully prepared compromise, in which the different practices in the Member States are made compatible and the Member States can allow, subject to certain conditions, the purchase and possession of firearms for the purposes of hunting for under 18-year-olds too."@en1
