"I voted for the oral question on female genital mutilation (FGM), asking the Commission about its intentions to propose a strategy and action plan aimed at addressing FGM. Although I do not want to see an EU legislative instrument, I would like to see more coherent policy, detailing how Member States can tackle this brutality.
In particular, I would like to see Member States pursuing, prosecuting and punishing any EU resident who has carried out FGM, and I would like to see them recognise that FGM is a gross form of violence against women and violence against the child. (According to the World Health Organisation, the majority of cases of FGM have involved young girls between infancy and the age of 15.)"@en1
