§ Ms Beverley Hughes
To ask the Prime Minister, pursuant to his oral statement of 24 June,Official Report, columns 671–73, concerning the main issues at the next G7 conference, if he will consider adding to the crime agenda the problems of child pornography and paedophile activity and their international dimension.

§ The Prime Minister
During my statement on 24 June,Official Report, column 684, I said that we would look at the evidence that paedophilia and pornography was being organised across national boundaries. We will certainly consider the problem in that context in the preparations for the Birmingham Summit. It is important that we use every opportunity to co-operate in tackling international crime.
