"Mr President, the questions that have been drafted by the authors are very apt and to the point. However, I would have added another question: how does the Commission intend to reduce the number of children used as farm labourers in both countries? The latest statistical surveys available indicate that in Peru, more than 2 million children aged between 6 and 14, amounting to 29% of all children in this age group, are used to carry out different types of work. Of these, 70% – 1.4 million children – work in agriculture. Colombia has also seen a sharp rise in the number of children used to do work. In fact, a minimum of 1 million children were employed in 2009, most of them in agriculture. Therefore, this issue should feature on the agenda of the official discussions with the two states, in addition, of course, to the other issues raised here."@en1
