"Madam President, the terrorist threat is still there and we need to address it. We have lots of tools to do so, but changing and sharing of information is key to doing this. We have PNR agreements. I already have seen strong evidence that PNR is essential to identify and to prevent terrorist attacks. We will make sure that this evidence is provided to the European Parliament with concrete examples, both from the three countries we are discussing and from the subsequent EU PNR. This is essential to enable you to assess this properly and to discuss it with your voters.
We should exchange PNR, but that should not be done without rules. We need to have the relevant information, to be able to join the dots and to have clear rules. We need to define the scope, the retention times, to have a high level of data protection and the possibility of redress for the individual. We need to have clear rules on third-country transfer and we need to be proportionate. All this is in the communication from the Commission and I am very happy to see that, although the details might vary, your communication is very much in line with this.
These are the issues that will be subject to negotiations with our three partners; they will be difficult, yet ambitious on our part. My goal is to do this together with the Council and with the EU’s other three institutions, so that the institutions can speak with one voice and be a clear partner in this.
From the beginning, I have tried to involve Parliament and to engage in an open and transparent way with it, with its relevant committees, the rapporteurs, the shadow rapporteurs, the coordinators and so on, and will continue to do so. I undertake that, at all stages of the negotiations, once they have begun, I will keep you fully and immediately informed, to have an open discussion and to listen to your views. Although the Commission will lead the negotiations, I am willing to discuss with you and to inform you and have good cooperation with you on this."@en1
