Hvad angår Unionens særlige ansvar, glæder jeg mig over, at det charter for de grundlæggende rettigheder, der er ved at blive udarbejdet, også skal omfatte børnenes specifikke rettigheder, når man tager i betragtning, at Unionen kan yde et væsentligt bidrag ikke mindst i denne sag.
As far as the responsibility of the Union itself is concerned, I am delighted at the fact that the Charter of Fundamental Rights that is being drawn up considers the specific rights of children, and takes account of the areas in which the Union can provide considerable impetus, specifically in these matters.
