lpv:spoken text	"I support calls for stricter measures to be put in place to crack down on corruption in sport. Both match-fixing and illegal betting are serious crimes and action must be taken to curb these offences. I support calls on Member States to work together on this issue, by circulating the names of those involved in corruption cases to prevent the problem merely shifting to other countries. A recent investigation by Europol has made clear that this is not simply a problem about cheating in sport, but that this is about money laundering on a global scale. Cross border measures need to be taken in order to stamp out this corruption, which is highly damaging to the integrity and reputation of the sporting world. I would welcome any efforts for Member States to work together to introduce common penalties for match-fixing, and sincerely hope that the Commission come forward with some proposals to help reduce illegal practices in sport."@en1
