WRITTEN QUESTION No. 549/98 by Lyndon HARRISON to the Commission. Ill-treatment of children in Greek care centres  


Official Journal C 310 , 09/10/1998 P. 0085 





WRITTEN QUESTION P-0549/98 by Lyndon Harrison (PSE) to the Commission (19 February 1998)Subject: Ill-treatment of children in Greek care centresA documentary recently broadcast on the British Channel 4 has revealed appalling and unworthy living conditions for children in a number of Greek care centres.According to this documentary, dozens of young children in the Government-funded centres in Karditsa and Serres are not lifted from their cots for years and they never see natural daylight or receive any kind of treatment. Furthermore, the documentary shows children tied by their arms and legs to their cots and children padlocked in cages.1. Could the Commission confirm that none of the abovementioned institutions or other centres where children live under similar conditions have been funded by the EU?2. What does the Commission intend to do in order to encourage the Greek authorities to abandon these archaic and distasteful practices?Answer given by Mr Flynn on behalf of the Commission (3 April 1998)No such centres have been financed through budget line B3-4108, measures in favour of the family and children since no money is allocated directly to local institutions for running costs. It enables governments, researchers and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to exchange information or carry out studies.The Commission has been co-financing a number of seminars to promote the rights of the child and child protection in several Member States. Representatives from Greece have participated in these. Furthermore a large conference will be organised in Greece under the patronage of the Commission in May 1998, which will also promote the well being of the child.The Commission also finances the Daphne initiative which assists NGOs and voluntary organisations in the action against violence against women, young people and children. NGOs active in this field may submit proposals aimed at preventing violence (which includes ill-treatment), and protecting or rehabilitating victims of violence.The care centres mentioned by the Honourable Member have not received any financing in the context of the 1994-1999 Community support framework for Greece.
