"Mr President, thank you for your understanding. I would like to congratulate my fellow Member, Mr de Grandes Pascual, on his excellent report and, above all, on the way in which he has successfully incorporated those proposals that seemed most reasonable and that could improve or, at least, complement the report.
The fact is that we started to feel alarmed when we saw scanners appearing randomly in airports, like mushrooms; it became absolutely vital – which was Parliament’s position from the outset – to provide an EU framework that would establish conditions, but without making it in any way compulsory.
Health and privacy, for both passengers and personnel, were fundamental. I believe that, in this regard, his ideas and proposals respect and guarantee Parliament’s main requests and requirements. In addition, there is one remaining aspect: efficiency. I hope that, being frequent travellers ourselves, we can manage to improve on this.
In any case, I certainly prefer a scanner to the kind of thorough body search to which frequent flyers are subjected every day in airports, as long as it is safe and guarantees privacy."@en1
