lpv:translated text	"Article 10 of the United Nations Protocol against the illicit manufacturing of and trafficking in firearms, which entered into force in June 2005, was the first binding instrument relating to small arms for civilian use adopted at world level. To date, the Protocol has been ratified by 83 countries and signed by 52 signatories. Nevertheless, countries such as the Czech Republic, France, Hungary, Ireland and Malta have neither ratified nor signed the document. Article 10 of the Protocol must, however, be implemented in all the Member States with a view to both harmonising and simplifying procedures and to creating a common system to regulate the trade in firearms, thereby helping combat illegal trafficking. I voted for the report tabled by Mr Iacolino which has the merit of reconciling the various existing needs by means of balanced proposals. Indeed, implementation of Article 10 has implications for public safety and the viability of the industry. We must, however, also take into account the delicate social and economic repercussions arising from the sector, which, in Europe alone, accounts for some EUR 694 million of exports and EUR 220 million of imports, a significant contribution to GDP and employment."@en1
