lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, the report recognises that criminal law is a highly sensitive policy area, and many Member States feel that their own individual criminal justice systems should continue to serve them best. This is particularly relevant for my Member State, the UK, where the criminal justice system dates back nearly 140 years. It is much more experienced, and thus better equipped, to tackle crime in the UK and beyond. The report acknowledges that an EU policy in criminal law would not necessarily be more cost-effective, nor would it result in a reduction in crime. Indeed, it asserts that, instead of harmonising criminal law across the EU, it may be more prudent to improve mutual recognition. I was not able to support the report in its current form, as Member States are best placed to coordinate activity directed at combating crime."@en1
