lpv:translated text	"Madam President, the sexual exploitation of children is a particular offence that leaves deep scars on children’s psyche. The legal frameworks of the Member States provide for certain penalties aimed at combating the sexual exploitation of children, but we must improve our children’s level of security. The report by my colleague Roberta Angelilli is a step in the right direction. Legislation must therefore be changed so that criminals from the European Union are prosecuted, even if a sexual offence against a child was committed outside its borders. We must support organisations combating paedophilia. Support is also needed for citizens’ initiatives where the justice system is ineffective, corrupt or caught up in sex crimes involving child abuse. The paedophilia scandal that took place in Lithuania a few years ago is an example of this. High-ranking justice system officials were entangled in this case. The case only came to light thanks to an initiative organised by citizens, which prevented a cover up. It is also important to introduce simpler access to legal protection for children and parents who have become victims of sexual crimes. This is very important, particularly as far as the underprivileged are concerned because, as we know, this is the most vulnerable social group in terms of the sexual exploitation of children. Let us not forget that in this Parliament it is our duty to guarantee protection for children."@en1
