"Madam President, this point may be of some interest to the House. Honourable Members may recall voting in the mini-part-session on the Foster report on common rules in the field of civil aviation security. This report had to be brought forward very quickly in the light of the events of 11 September. We were then awaiting the response from the Transport Council meeting last Friday and everyone hoped that a common position would be reached. I should like to inform the House that the Transport Council and Member States did not reach a common position, despite urgent appeals from all sides on the desperate need for these measures and despite the fact that this Parliament had bent over backwards to do its very best in a very short period of time.
The behaviour of the Member States and the Council in all of this has been quite appalling. This is probably one of the most important measures that has come through since 11 September and it would have affected 38 European countries. I will keep this House informed as to progress but I would like you, Madam President, to pass on our comments to the presidency.
