".
Mr President, the Commission has received an application for funds for measures to be taken against child sex tourism. These shall be carried out by four international organisations during 2001. These funds can be allocated by means of the commitment appropriation under budget item B7-663 in the budget for the year 2000. One of the four organisations is ECPAT, whose measures in this area during 2001, which are eligible for aid, are wholly covered by this application.
The Commission's procedure for granting the desired financial support will soon be complete, and this also includes the funds which ECPAT requires for 2001. As from 2001 it is the Commission's intention to finance actions against sex tourism by implementing the on-going programmes against child sex tourism. Programmes like Stop and Daphne have been earmarked by the Commission to allow child sex tourism to be fought as a form of sexual exploitation of children and violence against children in the candidate countries too. In addition, specific projects financed within the framework of the European Union's policy for development and external relations can also relate to work in the fight against child sex tourism in countries outside the European Union. These different instruments are also open to organisations like ECPAT and their partners in the countries concerned."@en1
