Question 12167 — children

Summary

Ms. Clémentine Autain alerts the Secretary of State to the Prime Minister, responsible for equality between women and men, on the issue of prostitution of minors in Seine-Saint-Denis. The program “Additional investigation: slavery, prostitution, the new traffickers” of November 9, 2017 devoted a report to this subject, taking the example of a hotel in the industrial zone of Villepinte. This situation of human trafficking humans, extremely serious, continues to prosper. According to the association against child prostitution (ACPE), between 5,000 and 8,000 children are affected. The publication of advertisements on the internet makes it more difficult to combat these phenomena. Some sites, such as Vivastreet, have closed the pages dedicated to dating since May 30, 2018, following a complaint filed by the Mouvement du Nid. According to the investigation carried out by the newspaper Le Monde in February 2017, these announcements represented 40 to 50% of the turnover of the Vivastreet platform. Its closure is a first step. However, others continue to prosper, such as 6annonce.com, because they are difficult to challenge. Today, there is a lack of resources to deal with this large-scale phenomenon: lack of police officers, but also lack of knowledge and training. The current fight against human trafficking is faces several pitfalls: should we order the closure of websites, most of which are domiciled outside France? What can we do to help hoteliers? She therefore asks him to carry out an exhaustive national survey in order to raise questions on this major subject, in order to adapt the responses provided by the various State services and put in place effective public policies to help these minors.
