lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I am Parliament’s rapporteur for refugees and I should say that this mission has, in recent times, become a depressing one, if not at times macabre. Last month, I informed the House about the deaths of more than 100 refugees off the coast of Lampedusa, and now, still reeling from the shock of learning of the disappearance of 600 refugees who were leaving Libya, we learn of more than 60 who died in full view of the ships of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) and several European navies. Let us not think that nothing can be done about these tragedies. There is a lot to do, that we must do, and that we are obliged to do by the international conventions that we have signed. I will give three examples in the 20 seconds I have left. The Council should conclude the codecision procedure regarding the resettlement of refugees that this Parliament voted for and that provided for emergency mechanisms for use on these occasions. A proposal should be tabled for a humanitarian corridor to remove from Libya refugees recognised as such by the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR), and NATO should comply with its mandate of protecting civilians, from Resolution 1973, which means carrying out high-sea rescues. Failure to help, let us not forget, is a crime and should not happen in our name."@en1
