EU legislation
06 April 2010
Some members of the EFC are currently focusing on the proposed directive of the European Parliament and the Council on combating the sexual abuse, sexual exploitation of children and child pornography. This is a new piece of legislation that is looking to ‘build a more coherent framework’ for combating child sexual abuse crimes across Europe.
There are a number of points within the legislation that are relevant to the work of the EFC and as such, the key EFC members are liaising with MEP’s as to the direction of the legislation and any possible amendments. Contact with the European Commission will be made as soon as all comments are received back from the working groups.
