"Mr President, I would like to make two general remarks and three more detailed observations. My first general remark is that I myself was an official participant in the Tampere European Council in October 1999, exactly six years ago. There we drew up the 10 Tampere milestones to show how we could make progress in these matters, for example. Unfortunately, progress has been very slow. My second remark concerns the Constitution, which Franco Frattini was also involved in drafting. It is regrettable to hear how those who opposed the Constitution here in Parliament would at the same time like a firmer policy on asylum. These go hand in hand, and I personally, at least, hope that the Constitution comes into effect in some form or another as soon as possible. Next, I wish to make three detailed observations. Firstly, this is the only part of the Common European Asylum System, adopted back in 1999, which has not been decided upon. I do not believe it is right to sulk about whether the European Parliament was listened to or not. What is most important is that this programme should now be carried out. My second observation concerns the list of safe countries. It is my opinion that a list of safe countries at EU level is vitally important and a very sensible idea. A list of this kind is necessary, and it is fine if, after the directive has come into effect, these decisions are taken by a qualified majority. Finally, I wish to express my support for the rapporteur. He is worried that a negative decision on asylum might be enforced even if the time for making an appeal is still not over. Obviously, this cannot be allowed to happen. For that reason, I support the rapporteur on this point."@en1
