lpv:translated text	"Mr President, for more than a year, a majority in this Parliament – although the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats) and European Democrats are of the opposite opinion – has claimed that it is a serious violation of the fundamental right of European citizens to data protection to demand that all European airlines are obliged to process European citizens’ data contained in their computerised reservation systems as requested by the United States Department of Homeland Security, Bureau of Customs and Border Protection and in line with US legislation. On top of that, there is not even any US legislation since no US law exists to protect private data. We are therefore obliged to process our data, the data of our citizens, as requested by an administrative body of a third country. We therefore want an international agreement that grants rights. This controversy has been going on for a year and the Commission, even now, repeatedly says that the directive has not been amended, but on this basis it has been breached. This is the opinion of the majority of Parliament. This is why we are calling for a preliminary decision by the Court of Justice. I do not even believe that we need wait for further news tomorrow because, I reiterate, we have carried on for a year or more. The only way to solve the matter – as to if it is true or if it is not true that a right in the Treaty has been breached – is to ask the Court of Justice for a ruling in advance, before signing the agreement, so that we do not end up nullifying an agreement that has already been drawn up, since this would damage relations."@en1
