"We Swedish Social Democrats present this explanation of vote concerning the following points: We are against using the expression, ‘forced prostitution’. Our view is that prostitution is always forced. Behind prostitution, there is always compulsion, dependency and exploitation. There can be no talk of voluntary prostitution and therefore no talk of forced prostitution either. We believe that Sweden should sign ILO Convention No 169 on indigenous and tribal peoples. Signing up to the convention requires adjustments to Swedish law, however. For example, the extent of the land that the Lapps have traditionally used or been in possession of has to be clearly identified. The task of establishing the extent of these areas has been entrusted by the government to a special commission that exists for the purpose of setting the limits of the reindeer breeding area. The inquiry must be completed by the end of 2004 and will then have to be referred for consultation. It means that it will be some years before Swedish ratification is possible. In the justification of item 133, Sweden is singled out in connection with two deaths that have attracted attention and in connection with which the police’s, the prosecution service’s and the coroner’s actions have been sharply criticised. We wish to make it clear that the Swedish Government responded to the criticism and set up an inquiry that was completed last year. The inquiry was conducted expressly from the point of view of citizens’ rights and is critical of a variety of aspects of the criminal inquiry."@en1
