"I voted in favour of this resolution because it calls on all stakeholders involved in growing and processing cocoa beans and their derivative products – namely, governments, global industry, cocoa producers, trade unions, non-governmental organisations and consumers – to live up to their respective responsibilities in terms of combating all forms of forced child labour and trafficking, to share expertise, and to collaborate towards a sustainable cocoa supply chain free from child labour. Only a holistic and coordinated framework that addresses the root causes of child labour and which is implemented on a long-term basis by governments, industry, traders, producers and civil society can deliver significant changes. I welcome the provision that the Commission must ensure that all trade agreements include effective provisions on poverty reduction and the promotion of decent work and safe working conditions, along with legally binding clauses on internationally agreed human rights, social and environmental standards and the enforcement of those standards, accompanied by measures to be applied in the event of infringements."@en1
