lpv:translated text	"Ms Ernst, I have not actually been able to find a single example. However, there may be more and better examples of public investment in engineering technology to be found for things that are really necessary, such as, for example, in the case of European civil protection services, the development of equipment for locating people buried beneath rubble following earthquakes. I recall that at the time of the attack in Detroit, which was the attack that began this whole debate about body scanners, we also had an earthquake in Haiti. There were hundreds of thousands of people buried under the rubble. We did not have the equipment to locate them. Every day, however, lobbyists from the scanner industry were knocking on the doors of Members of the European Parliament to tell us: our scanner meets your concerns about privacy very well, but each one costs EUR 150 000 and we are going to fill every airport in Europe with them. Are there not more useful things that European engineering and industry could be doing that would be of greater social benefit?"@en1
