"Mr President, my group wishes to join in the support for this initiative and for Mrs Banotti's report and indeed to join in the tributes to Mrs Banotti for the enormously valuable work she does as our mediator for transnationally abducted children.
There is no doubt that split families are among the most harrowing things we hear of in our working life: mothers or fathers worried about access to children across national boundaries. Whatever we can do to alleviate these situations, we ought to do and this regulation brought forward on a French initiative is the way forward. I agree with Mrs Karamanou and others that it is a great pity, given the way we live now, that it only covers the children of people who happen to be, or have been, married to each other. That is a task for the future. Meantime, we welcome this measure and we will vote heartily for it."@en1
