"As the Commission pointed out, it is estimated that between 10% and 20% of children in Europe will suffer sexual abuse during their childhood. Those macabre figures are enough to make you shiver, and if nothing is done to curb this sad phenomenon, the situation will inexorably worsen, affecting ever younger children, with ever more violence. The Council and Parliament have agreed to harmonise and strengthen the preventive and coercive measures to combat sexual abuse and child pornography. Child grooming, sex tourism – including outside Europe – and the production and use of child pornography material will be more severely punished where EU nationals are involved. The text on which we are voting today provides the Member States with effective weapons to combat this phenomenon. I refer in particular to the possibility of blocking websites with child pornography content, and so not stopping at procedures for removing the site, which can be lengthy and unreliable when the site is hosted abroad. It is estimated that 80% of sexual abuse is committed by people with authority over the child or who are in the child’s close family circle. Let us not add the shortcomings of an ill-adapted legal framework to the rule of silence already hanging over the victims."@en1
