"Contrary to the claims of the rapporteur, the explosion of organised crime and transnational crime in the European Union is one of the consequences of the disappearance of internal border controls without any serious reinforcement of controls at the external borders. It is true, as has been said in all of the long-winded meetings, trafficking – of drugs, people and arms – is a scourge and the imagination of the traffickers knows no bounds. Once again, though, we come together to attempt to manage, at a European level, problems that would never have existed or would have been far reduced had it not been for the existence of the European Union. Moreover, as regards crime, Member States have not waited for the EU before reacting. The Prüm Treaty illustrates this, even if its content was partially adopted at EU level, resulting, by the way, in its being less effective. However, the issue that particularly motivated our vote against is the intention to give competences in these areas to the planned European Public Prosecutor’s Office. We are opposed to the very principle of this Office and, therefore, in particular, we oppose the possibility of this supranational organisation initiating legal investigations and giving orders to our police services."@en1
