More than 200 new pornographic photographs of children are posted on the Internet every day, therefore the EU must introduce legislation that would empower the EU and Member States to adopt strong coordinated measures to protect children and to prosecute appropriately those who take advantage of them.
It is not good enough that effective coordination is not taking place in the EU to combat the sexual abuse of children. A comprehensive approach must be implemented, including the prosecution of offenders, the protection of children and the prevention of such offences. People could be prevented from accessing this content online and the EU could be empowered to prohibit certain sites from outside the EU. Coordinated penalties and minimum sentences for 20 offences would provide a strong foundation for a coordinated European approach. It is also a strong point that Member States can impose stronger penalties when deemed necessary.
I also support the recommendation in relation to implementing legal measures in all Member States to ensure protection for victims during legal proceedings."@en1
