lpv:translated text	"The Agreement between the United States of America and the European Union on Passenger Name Records, which entered into force in 2007, was renegotiated. Parliament did not accept the terms of the agreement and called on the European Commission to hold additional talks with the USA on those terms and conditions. In the talks, improvements were sought to the implementation of civil rights causing the greatest concern with respect to the protection of privacy. The reformed agreement now before us includes a maximum period of 15 years for the retention of data, and allows EU authorities to verify the implementation of the agreement in the United States. I judged the success of this agreement mainly according to how well it would work, on the one hand, to help partner countries combat terrorism and crime, and, on the other, to guarantee the civil rights of European air passengers travelling to the USA in an acceptable way. In voting on the recommendation to adopt the agreement on the transfer of PNR data, and in consideration of the fact that rejecting the recommendation would mean that we would have no agreement in force with the USA, I am absolutely convinced that a contractual arrangement will do more to protect the rights of air passengers than having no agreement in place at all. I would also like to say emphatically that, to me, it is only natural that the European Union should seek to promote action to combat terrorism and crime in collaboration with the US security authorities. Cooperation in this area is definitely in the interests of the EU and its Member States. Consequently, I voted in favour of the recommendation leading to the adoption of this agreement."@en1
