Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thank you gentlemen for your insightful comments.
We know that this is an issue that's been long standing, but what's emerging is consumer realization about the issue and that we need some kind of legislative framework as well. Different countries are responding in different ways. One of the more significant milestones in this has been the sustainable development goals, particularly identifying the end of child labour by 2025.
Further to my colleague's point about fair trade, we do understand now that there is a lot of fraud surrounding this issue. People and corporations think they are accessing a fair supply chain but actually fraud is being committed, particularly in seafood, as I've learned through my research.
I'd like to hear from each of you. I'm just going to give a preamble and then you guys can use up the rest of my time. That's been my practice generally, so we use the time wisely.
Is this child rights and security checklist something that...? How can we legislate that at our end and help countries where the child labour is taking place build capacity? Is that a tool? What are some of the other ways we could be legislating and using that? Maybe there's some other approach we should be using. I'll leave it at that.
Thank you.
