"I voted in favour of the resolution on the draft directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on the European Protection Order. The directive is indispensable in order that victims of violence can feel comparatively safe throughout the European Union, regardless of where they are living. After the directive has been adopted, it will be important to conduct regular training courses for judicial bodies and other competent bodies, to enable them to provide appropriate help to victims. It will also be vital to conduct an information campaign aimed at making citizens aware of the possibility of issuing a European Protection Order.
As a result, the victims of violence will receive significantly more protection, and there will be a drop in such crimes. The directive on the European Protection Order represents a key step towards a European directive on violence against women. A joint, comprehensive EU strategy needs to be drafted and implemented as quickly as possible, with the aim of fighting violence against women in all EU Member States. We urgently need European legislative standards to combat violence against women. This is the only way we can support women and oppose society’s acceptance of domestic violence and the impunity of those who commit this crime. I hope that the upcoming Polish Presidency will make a significant contribution to the drawing up and adoption of a draft directive on this matter. I have already written a letter bringing this matter to the attention of the Prime Minister of Poland, Donald Tusk, but I have not yet received a response."@en1
