lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I am utterly amazed at the President-in-Office's answer. At the moment, the Council is discussing a European agreement with the United States, whereby the Article 31 Committee, which is competent in this area, has given, or as good as given, the green light on behalf of the Council, to the conclusion of an agreement with the United States. The annex to this agreement also refers to CAPS II (Computer Assisted Passenger Pre-screening System II). It is therefore highly unlikely that the Council is unaware of what is going on, and Mr Cappato's question is in my view very plain: he has asked whether this is not a case of illegality and of violation of our regulations. The Council cannot say that this is a matter for the data protection authorities alone, which have themselves indicated that this is illegal. Action is indeed needed. The Council is right to say that this should be done at national level, but it too has a task to perform here. The Council has, to some extent, passed this task on to the European Commission, being apparently unfamiliar with the facts involved, and – what is worse – has not informed the national parliaments. I therefore ask the Council to ensure that this is still done."@en1
