lpv:translated text	"As they deal with the same subject, Questions No 42 and 43 will be taken together. The financial support which ECPAT receives from the Enterprise DG is reportedly to be withdrawn from next year. During the period that ECPAT has received funding from the Enterprise DG, very important work has been carried out, primarily for the incalculable benefit of an unknown number of children, but also for the travel industry, which has drawn up its own code of conduct. Does the Commission have any idea how the highly important work done by ECPAT can continue to receive EU funding to ensure that forceful measures to combat child sex tourism can also be taken in the future? Can the Commission envisage transferring the project to another DG? Question No 42 by Maj Britt Theorin (): The international organisation, ECPAT, works in conjunction with tour operators to combat child sex tourism. The Commission has hitherto provided a grant covering 60% of the cost of the project but ECPAT has now been notified that this support from the Enterprise DG will be withdrawn as of next year and the organisation has been recommended to apply for funding from other DGs instead. The project is the only one of its kind and the Commission's support is fully in line with the Council's 1999 decision on efforts to combat child sex tourism. The Enterprise DG has a responsibility, therefore, to ensure that the ECPAT project continues to receive support from another DG before the support in its present form is withdrawn. Can the Commission promise that this unique and innovative project will continue to receive support? Question No 43 by Lennart Sacrédeus (): ECPAT is an organisation working to combat sexual exploitation of children, particularly in countries where European travel companies operate."@en1
