"The current, mindless airport and aviation security measures are an unfortunate and constant reminder of terrorism. They do not instil public confidence. There have to be security checks – both on the public side and airside. But these should make sense and be flexible. Above all, they should be targeted more effectively. This means ‘profiling’, a key measure that is avoided for fear of a ‘discrimination’ accusation.
It is curious that the European Commission thinks it has to give the green light to new security measures for Europe’s airports. Governments of EU countries should co-ordinate their response – but this must not be an excuse to extend the competence of the Commission into new areas. Certainly the British Government must resist any further attempt to remove our national veto on justice and policing matters. The International Civil Aviation Organisation, with its global reach, is the appropriate body to ensure that airports around the world meet security needs. We abstained on the resolution."@en1
