"Mr President, Mr Vice-President of the Commission, it is unfortunate that the European Court of Justice did not return a ruling on the merits of the question put to it by the European Parliament, thereby putting us in this complicated situation.
We are now being called upon to find a solution under pressure of time, because if no solution is found by 30 September, then more than 100 000 European passengers a week are in danger of being unable to travel to the United States.
I understand that recent events in London have heightened interest, in Member States, about data transfers. However, I should like to emphasise that our common objective, to safeguard public security, is self-evident. However, the method which we apply in order to achieve it will also define the product of our societies and will illustrate the level and maturity of our civilisation.
An effort must be made to ensure that the information which may be requested is limited to what is absolutely necessary, with sensitive personal data clearly excluded. However, in all cases, on such a serious issue, there must be close cooperation between the institutions, with the active – I repeat
participation of the European Parliament, especially the Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs, at all levels of negotiation.
We accept Mr Frattini's position that he will keep us informed, although that is not enough. The European Parliament cannot be called on every time to back decisions which have already been taken. The European Parliament has an obligation to take an active part in all these sensitive issues.
With these comments, I think that we shall vote for the opinion expressed in my honourable friend's report."@en1
