"This motion for a resolution takes into account the fact that the ILO estimates that more than 215 million children worldwide are child labourers; that 70% of world cocoa production is cultivated in West Africa and all family members, including children, are involved in this work; that children working in Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire are exposed to different types of danger; and that there are many programmes and initiatives to combat such child exploitation. Having regard to all this information, the Parliament urges those states which have yet to ratify the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child or ILO conventions Nos 138 or 182 to ratify them urgently; urges all stakeholders to live up to their responsibilities in terms of combating all forms of forced child labour and trafficking; urges the Commission to 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; welcomes all initiatives to promote best practice and calls on the International Cocoa Agreement partners to look into the possibility of introducing accredited, third party-audited traceability for the cocoa supply chain."@en1
