"Sexual abuse and sexual exploitation of children, including child pornography, are serious violations of fundamental rights, in particular the rights of the child to such protection and care as is necessary for his or her well-being, as stipulated by the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. The directive we are shortly to adopt is the first measure looking at a specific area of criminal law: the protection of children against sexual exploitation, sexual abuse and child pornography. Having spent years fighting actively against paedophilia, I can only welcome this new directive, which works on three fronts: preventing the crimes, harsher criminal sanctions for offenders and greater protection for victims. Furthermore, the directive introduces innovative measures designed to combat all kinds of abuse: it introduces the crime of grooming, defines the crime of sex tourism within the Union, brings in restrictions to avoid offences being repeated and provides for the seizure and confiscation of assets deriving from the crime of child pornography. Lastly, I think that giving Member States the power to take the necessary measures to ensure the immediate deletion of web pages containing or disseminating child pornography is a significant step forward in the fight against abuse"@en1
