lpv:translated text	"I voted in favour of this resolution because child labour poses an unacceptable risk to children’s health and development. Furthermore, only through joint efforts can we combat child labour in cocoa plantations, particularly in Western Africa, where child labour on farms is most widespread. A holistic and coordinated plan must therefore be applied, removing the root causes of child labour. Given the scale of the problems, sufficient resources must be allocated to achieve this objective. I believe that any work carried out by children should be considered child labour and the aim is to eliminate it. The Commission should provide more active support for measures that would increase assistance for fair trade networks in the cocoa sector and village cooperatives and would enable them to obtain a fair price for their production. Companies would thus be encouraged to give greater assistance to initiatives combating child exploitation on cocoa plantations."@en1
