".
I am glad we have secured a balanced agreement with the Council. This ought to allow us to rapidly implement the text, which definitely represents progress for the EU and passenger safety.
Now all aircraft from third countries will be inspected and must obtain certification to transport passengers within the EU, and this also represents progress in terms of harmonising the protection of European citizens. This extends the process that began with the European blacklist, allowing all passengers to be protected in the same way regardless of which airport they use within the EU.
Before I finish, I wish to mention another point that I feel is important. In the recent adoption of the Galileo project, 50 million euros were taken from the budgets of several European agencies, and the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) was one of them. I have always supported the Galileo project because it is especially important in my region, and I am very glad an agreement has been reached on how it will be financed. I wish to point out, however, that we cannot simultaneously increase the powers of an agency and reduce its budget. EASA must not be affected by this levy."@en1
