lpv:translated text	"I am pleased to note that the Community directive we are about to adopt, which regulates the fundamental rights of victims at EU level, specifically provides for the protection of the victims of hate crime and crimes committed with a discriminatory motive. I also find it particularly important that the draft legislation urges support to the vulnerable groups of society that are especially threatened by crime. The poor, members of minorities and the homeless are frequent targets of violence. Crimes against women and children and incidents of domestic violence are also commonplace; contrary to some opinions, these are not caused by low birth rates but by the spreading of aggression. Many do not file police reports out of ignorance or fear. It is essential for the victims to know their rights. We need information and awareness-raising campaigns, for which Community funds are available. Several Member States are using EU support to implement programmes that provide legal information and even aid to the victims of crime. These should be continued and, wherever possible, expanded. It is important for law enforcement and justice staff to be aware of the tasks and responsibilities associated with the protection of victims. The directive to be adopted calls attention to this need. The draft legislation lays down the minimum requirements for the protection of victims; I hope that in practice, some Member States will afford the victims of crime broader rights and protection."@en1
