"Could the Commission clarify to Parliament what progress it has made on the 2005 plan to combat and prevent trafficking of humans in Europe?
Concerned by the delay of implementation of this plan by Member States, I ask that the Commission state the impact this could have on the campaign ‘Red Card to forced prostitution’ in Member States. Could it also inform us what campaign it is putting in place to raise awareness of trafficking for prostitution during the UEFA 2008 games?
I am deeply concerned that, whilst sporting events bring joy to millions worldwide, they are also ruthlessly being used as an opportunity to exploit women and girls.
I am shocked that around 100 000 women are trafficked in Europe annually for prostitution. What I condemn the most is that girls as young as 14 are affected.
We simply cannot let this form of modern day slavery continue. Not only is sexual exploitation a crime, it is also a gross violation of human rights."@en1
