lpv:translated text	"According to some studies, it is estimated that more than 250 000 children work in the West African cocoa plantations. They handle pesticides without protection and, on a daily basis, use tools which are very dangerous for their age. As the main importer of cocoa beans, the European Union shoulders a heavy responsibility for combating child labour, most particularly in the cocoa sector, and must establish a sustainable supply chain for cocoa in which children play no part. The place of children is not in the cocoa plantations but rather at school, and actions must be supported to promote this change. In short, and in more general terms, all trade agreements should include provisions to reduce poverty and promote decent work and safe working conditions, along with legally binding clauses on respect for human rights, social and environmental standards, as well as penalties for infringement."@en1
