lpv:translated text	"− I voted in favour of this European Parliament report because this Directive is a huge step forward in ensuring as far as possible that there is broader and more effective cooperation between EU Member States and between the EU and third countries in combating the sexual exploitation of children and child pornography. Studies show that about 10-20% of minors in Europe may have experienced sexual abuse in childhood. The sexual exploitation of children is the most serious and cruellest of crimes committed against children. The European Parliament thus proposes that stiffer penalties should be imposed for such crimes throughout the EU because then the EU Member States would not be able to apply more lenient sentences to child abusers. The new Directive calls for the criminal prosecution of activities such as child grooming. It is proposed that sex tourists who go abroad to abuse children should be prosecuted on their return home. Much attention is given to the protection and support of victims and subsequent crime prevention. It has been agreed in this Directive that children and parents must be educated about online dangers, and that psychological and other types of help should be given to victims and their families. One of the most important achievements of this Directive is the prevention of such crimes through, for example, education, the training of officials working in the area, and cooperation with relevant civil society organisations."@en1
