This proposal for a directive comes at the right time given that the number of paedophilia cases has risen alarmingly in recent years. In view of the fact that approximately 20% of perpetrators of sexual offences repeat the offence after conviction, I believe that more severe punishment is required than a few years’ imprisonment, depending on the seriousness of the situation.
For repeat child sex offenders, I believe that we should apply penalties such as chemical castration or a life sentence. Let us not forget that chemical castration is already prescribed in countries such as Denmark, Sweden, the Czech Republic and the United States, and was also introduced in Poland last year. It is our duty to examine and apply harsher penalties to repeat paedophiles at European level too."@en1
