lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, last Friday was the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, and this week in Ireland Women’s Aid is running its 16 Days Campaign which aims to raise awareness of the reality of domestic violence and to push for a positive change to increase women’s safety. Every day in Europe women are raped, beaten and trapped in their homes by their boyfriends, husbands and partners, with a higher rate of repeat victimisation than any other crime. One in five women in Ireland will experience violence in their lives, but it is not just women who suffer as a result of this. It has a massive impact on children as well, with last year more than 1 600 incidents of child abuse being disclosed by callers to the national domestic violence helpline in Ireland. I fear the situation will get worse as the recession bites and greatly reduces the options for women experiencing violence. With the closure of refuges and support services, women will have nowhere to go. I am heartened to see the Commission is working with Parliament and the Council to combat gender-based violence and support vulnerable groups, but we must not let austerity undermine essential frontline services at home."@en1
