lpv:translated text	"It is shameful that some countries retain the death penalty for homosexuality or impose some form of criminal sanction for the same. Education, combined with legislative change at EU and national level, is what will make a difference; it will be what improves the track record in every Member State, it will be what will transform the way this vulnerable section of society is viewed and treated by its peers and ultimately by the State. As Members of the European Parliament, it is our duty to see to it that this happens in our respective countries. The Commission must ensure that discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender expression in all sectors is eliminated by swiftly completing the anti-discrimination package based on Article 19 TFEU. The Commission has held that ‘homophobia has no place in Europe’. Now it must do its utmost to translate this statement into legal safeguards and guarantees."@en1
