". – I would say to the honourable Member that the Commission has been in contact with the United Kingdom authorities on this subject since July 2002. Since then, the Commission has also drawn the attention of the European Crime Prevention Network to the possible usefulness of EU-wide measures to prevent mobile phone theft. The European Crime Prevention Network is now discussing the issue. Nevertheless, the Commission does not foresee tabling a proposal on this subject under Article 34 of the Treaty on European Union, as it has not been identified, for now, as being one of the priority areas for approximation of substantive criminal law.
All Member States' criminal justice systems contain provisions criminalising theft, which would, of course, be applicable to the theft of mobile phones. Therefore, for the time being, in terms of the principle of subsidiarity, we consider that those legal provisions in the Member States are sufficient to tackle this particular kind of increasing criminality."@en1
