Tackling the demand for the sexual exploitation of children 2016, para. 58
- Paragraph text

Indeed, it specifically lists measures such as the seizure and confiscation of proceeds derived from the relevant offences or property equivalent in value. Targeting financial proceeds is a particularly strong deterrent and reparatory measure, since on the one hand intermediaries are motivated by profit and on the other hand the seized resources can be used to fund care, recovery and reintegration programmes.
