Proceeding contribution from Anthony Steen (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 23 June 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Safeguarding Children (Sexual Exploitation).


Safeguarding Children (Sexual Exploitation)

On internet images, the idea that we need to cut off the tentacles is all well and good, but this is a worldwide issue. If they are cut off here, they must also be cut off in Vietnam. Does the hon. Gentleman agree that it is no good Britain being jolly good at preventing traffickers and children from coming into this country when there is no Europe-wide and worldwide effort? It is no good saying that we are a wonderful island that does not let any traffickers in if they just go to Spain or Holland instead. Does he agree that we need a Europe-wide approach?
