Written Declaration 0007/2016, submitted under Rule 136, by Tomáš Zdechovský, Eleonora Evi, Jana Žitňanská, Kinga Gál, Helga Stevens, Lefteris Christoforou, Roberta Metsola, Patricija Šulin, Dubravka Šuica, Theodoros Zagorakis, Catherine Stihler, Miriam Dalli, Renate Weber, Philippe De Backer, Anna Maria Corazza Bildt, Jeroen Lenaers, Indrek Tarand, Sophia in 't Veld and Caterina Chinnici on improving emergency cooperation in recovering endangered missing children and improving child alert mechanisms in the EU Member States (Pursuant to Rule 136(4) and (5), of Parliament's Rules of Procedure, where a declaration is signed by a majority of Parliament's component Members, it shall be published in the minutes with the names of its signatories and forwarded to the addressees, though it shall not be binding on Parliament) (minutes of 9.5.2016, item 9) and signed by 465 Members.

Text of the written declaration:







1.


250 000 children are reported missing in the EU each year. When a child is abducted and killed, in 76 % of cases the child was murdered within three hours of the abduction. The search for an endangered missing child often stagnates at internal borders. 37.5 % of Europeans live in border areas.










2.


When the public are asked to search for a missing child that is in imminent and serious danger, it is crucial that this is done as soon as possible.










3.


The Council and the Commission are therefore called upon to subscribe to the 5-point plan proposed by AMBER Alert Europe (the European Child Rescue Alert and Police Network on Missing Children).










4.


The Commission is hence called upon to make every effort to encourage the practice whereby, when a child is at risk in a border area, or law enforcement agencies suspect that the child has crossed an internal border, law enforcement agencies, border authorities and the public in the other country are informed immediately.










5.


This declaration, together with the names of the signatories, is forwarded to the Council and the Commission.

1.


Diabetes mellitus is a serious chronic and progressive condition affecting 32 million people in the EU, with an expected increase to 37 million by 2040. In 2015, there were over 266 000 deaths due to diabetes.










2.


If diagnosed late and improperly managed, diabetes can lead to debilitating and fatal complications, including cardiovascular disease and stroke, kidney failure, amputations and blindness.










3.


Some EUR 114 billion was spent on treating diabetes in the EU in 2013, despite efforts deployed since Written Declaration 0001/2006.










4.


Healthy eating and physical exercise can greatly contribute to the prevention or delay in onset of Type 2 diabetes.










5.


The adoption of a healthy lifestyle cannot prevent Type 1 diabetes, but is of great benefit in controlling the disease.










6.


The Commission and Council are called upon: to prioritise diabetes as a major European health, social and economic concern; to develop an EU strategy for diabetes prevention, diagnosis and control; to encourage Member States to establish national diabetes plans; to develop a strategy to encourage consumption and production of healthy food; and to effectively coordinate and implement all measures hitherto developed.
