"My reservations to the report are twofold: a matter of both principle and practical approach. The text’s tone is infiltrated and determined by prejudices and accusations that counter-terrorism simply keeps violating human rights, that it operates with excessive budgets and exaggerates threats. These propagandistic concepts are based on hypotheses to which no evidence was provided by the rapporteur.
On the other hand, goals laid down in the report are hardly feasible in practice. One example of many: with data being classified for security reasons, to what extent and on which benchmarks should the proportionality between the cost of a preventive counter terrorism operation and the threat level be assessed?
Why does the rapporteur believe that either secret services of Member States or EU security agencies would grant civilians access to their most sensitive data, thus putting European security at risk? How could we assess proportionality without the knowledge of these extremely sensitive bits of information?
As staunch supporters of accountability, the EPP Group stands for overseeing counter-terrorism policies, however, within the established competence of designated authorities. Demoralising counter-terrorism, especially nowadays, is proof of irresponsible behaviour and thus I am not in a position to support the report."@en1
