lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I too should like to congratulate the rapporteur for this. The rapporteur has produced two excellent reports. He makes a first-class contribution to the work of the committee which I have the honour to chair. I would like to talk very briefly about the first of these reports to do with the freedom of movement of people. It is essential that we have a European legal space and that we pursue its development with judicial cooperation in civil matters. The rapporteur quite rightly identifies the problems here and recognises that just as the single market required a massive benchmarking exercise, a massive exercise in approximation and mutual recognition, so too will the development of a European legal space require this. In the second report the rapporteur looks at the problems that have emerged with the Schengen Information System and the opportunity to move forward to the second version of it, which clearly will be needed with enlargement. We have here, in Strasbourg, with the central Schengen computer system, the most comprehensive databank in Europe. It must be financed from our budget. Sadly, the Belgian and Swedish initiatives, which propose a regulation for the First Pillar and a decision for the Third Pillar, show how ridiculous it is still to be operating with these two pillars. In particular, Article 96, which is the article governing the data on those refused entry, must be in the First Pillar. It contains the personal details of 1.3 million people and will contain substantially more with enlargement of the Union. In conclusion I would draw the House's attention to the report from Justice last year that found significant defects in data protection, poor quality of data and obstacles placed in the way of individuals seeking to correct mistakes. We must take account of this."@en1
