"Human trafficking is the modern form of slavery and the second most lucrative activity for organised crime throughout the world, affecting millions of people. I eagerly await the strategy that should soon be submitted to us by the Commission, providing a more comprehensive approach for tackling this type of crime more effectively and, at the same time, enhancing the prevention and victim-protection aspect, paying particular attention to children and other high-risk groups.
The directive adopted in 2010 represented an important step in creating common minimum standards and eliminating the legal vacuum that existed. Its timely transposition – by April 2013 – now falls to the Member States. I also consider it positive that an EU anti-trafficking coordinator has been created, which should contribute to the existence of a more coherent and coordinated anti-trafficking strategy, setting out general policy guidelines and directives to be applied in cooperation with third countries. The Commission’s creation of a working group on human trafficking and the Council’s creation of a network of reports and equivalent mechanisms for analysing this phenomenon and collecting reliable data are also both positive."@en1
