lpv:spoken text	"The ECR Group fully supports the aims and objectives of the proposed European Protection Order and we are keen to see that victims of violence, terrorism, domestic abuse, stalking and/or harassment are protected if and when they move throughout the EU. The ECR Group is sympathetic to the distress that physical, psychological and or sexual abuse can cause and the state of vulnerability in which it leaves its victims. We were not able to vote in favour of the report today due to our concerns over the legal base and scope of the directive. This proposal has a criminal law basis; however, some of the offences that this proposal intends to cover are civil law matters, yet there is an absence of the use of Article 81 of the TFEU. The ECR Group is concerned about how effectively this proposal would be implemented and what message this anomaly sends out to the EU public about how we make law here. The ECR Group strongly believes that the legislation we produce at EU level must be legally sound and robust and should not compromise Member States’ legal systems. For these reasons, the ECR Group abstained on this report."@en1
