lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the Christmas period is the busiest time for the toy trade and for toy manufacturers. It is strange that it is our children, the most vulnerable members of our community, who are often in danger from products that are not up to standard. These products come from far away and often we do not know how they were made or what they contain. More than 22 million toys were returned all over the world in the last five years. In my own country, Ireland, 120 000 toys were returned during that period. It is a source of worry that toys which are being sold in Ireland come from far away and that there is no certainty as regards their quality. This must be stopped. This directive is an improvement but it is only a beginning. We must continue on and ensure that these products are safe."@en1
