"Mr President, the rules of professional conduct of European Community lawyers state that it is in the very nature of a lawyer’s work to be entrusted with clients’ secrets and to receive other confidential information. If there is no guarantee of confidentiality, there can be no trust. For this reason, professional secrecy is both a fundamental right and a fundamental duty of lawyers. This fundamental duty, which applies, mutatis mutandis, to all members of the legal profession, is also a fundamental right of anybody in need of advice, i.e. potentially every single one of us. We shall not stand for any further dismantling of fundamental rights, even if justified by the alleged need to combat organised crime, which is why we agree on this text with Mr Lehne and shall be voting in favour of the proposed amendments."@en1
