"The European Parliamentary Labour Party (EPLP) voted for the Fava report because we believe that it is important for the European Parliament to have investigated the alleged use of European countries by the CIA for the transportation and illegal detention of prisoners.
MEPs are directly elected and answerable to our constituents. We investigate all manner of issues on behalf of them and we could not ignore calls that Member States may have breached their treaty obligations under Article 6 of the EU Treaty which outlines the basic principles of democracy, human rights, and respect of law.
The EPLP voted for amendments which moved the focus of the report away from personalities and party politics to the substance of the rendition allegations. The EPLP have voted for a more balanced and fair report in Plenary than the report which emerged from Committee stage."@en1
