". Given that juvenile delinquency is a major problem in all Member States, it would be disastrous for the EP to send the wrong signal. We should ask ourselves whether it is the job of the European Parliament to give instructions to the Member States on how to organise their criminal systems. The creation of a new European observatory on juvenile delinquency is not necessary. Modern communications mean that it is easy for the national observatories to network with each other. Two themes in this report are crucial: 1) The lessening of the jurisdiction of courts and other institutions in the justice system for juveniles. This system has existed since 1991 in a Member State, and youth magistrates recently demonstrated outside their court because the system is a ‘failure to help people in danger’. The ombudsman for children in that country made the following comment: ‘the authorities are sending a message of powerlessness, impunity and abandonment to young people’. Fortunately, the lessening of the jurisdiction of courts was not maintained. 2) The issue of ‘penalties’ has once again become a major theme in the European political discourse. The opinion of the ESC on juvenile delinquency also placed an emphasis on the pillars for an effective response to juvenile delinquency of prevention, judicial and extra-judicial measures, rehabilitation, integration and social re-integration. I was able to vote in favour of this report because our amendment, which is along the same lines, was adopted."@en1
