lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the GUE/NGL Group could not support Mrs Karamanou’s report on child pornography. We strongly condemn child pornography. We consider this to be a severe and very serious crime. For this reason we consider that the proposals submitted by the Commission are better than the report submitted by the Committee on Citizens’ Freedoms and Rights, Justice and Home Affairs. It is important that legislation defines child pornography as distinctly as possible. Definitions must not be allowed to become so broad as to make police work and the work of authorities more difficult. If a parent or guardian admits serious abuse of a child, their own child or someone else’s child, they must be treated as the criminals they are and not afforded special treatment in any way. If there is no obligation to report knowledge of actual crime in this respect in Member States, we hope that the Commission will encourage the implementation of such legislation. However, we do not wish to encourage moral panic by encouraging citizens to report anyone relevant suspicions. Finally, we turn to the proposal submitted by the Commission and the committee on age limits. In accordance with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, a person is to be seen as a child until he or she has reached the age of 18. Whatever the age of the child, vulnerability, the degree of abuse and the nature of abuse must be the guiding factors when setting penalties – irrespective of age."@en1
