"Mr President, I am going to answer the questions in reverse order. I am not aware of the report the honourable Member mentioned, but if that information were confirmed, the question would undoubtedly warrant further examination; we need to examine the facts at the import level of the supply chain. Please be assured, however, that the Presidency is very aware of this aspect and is determined to combat it, notably by applying the principles of reciprocity in this field and ensuring that international social standards are respected.
Secondly, as far as development is concerned you are completely right. It is an undertaking that requires tireless efforts and we will continue to ensure that there is better coordination in the field of development. Finally, like all the aspects aimed at enhancing the European Union’s social dimension, the fight against child labour and the path the European Union must follow in that area are major concerns of the Presidency."@en1
