lpv:spoken text	"I, alongside my fellow Labour MEPs, have voted in favour of this report. As Labour MEPs we welcome the strengthening of this legislation designed to ensure the EU is not complicit in torture, and to fulfil the EU’s commitment to standing against the death penalty and torture throughout the world. Updates to this legislation will ensure EU companies do not profit from torture in oppressive regimes and sends a strong signal to those who trade in execution and torture goods that they cannot access the EU market. In particular we welcome new measures to improve the speed and efficiency of reacting to suspected transactions. We strongly stand behind the EU ban on trading drugs intended for the death penalty which Labour MEPs and the European Union stand firmly against."@en1
