"I voted in favour of the report on corporate social responsibility in international trade agreements. Globalisation has given rise to fierce competition between countries which, in turn, has led to unacceptable practices by many multinationals in developing countries: failure to respect core labour standards, human rights violations and environmental damage. Parliament is calling for a clause on corporate social responsibility to be included in all international trade agreements signed by the European Union. This clause would require the regular publication of reports detailing the social and environmental impact of each undertaking’s activities, taking into account all subsidiaries and the supply chain. The report calls for the creation of legal cooperation mechanisms between the EU and signatory states and under trade agreements in order to guarantee recourse to the justice system for victims where multinationals and their subsidiaries fail to comply with social and environmental legislation."@en1
