"Mr President, unlike my colleague, I voted for this report, and I congratulate the Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs (LIBE) and its rapporteur, Cornelis de Jong, for their professional approach. This is a very sensitive subject. We are entering new territory, because it is as a result of the Treaty of Lisbon that we can now begin to speak of EU criminal law. The rapporteur was right to consider this dimension in his report, to provide a methodological overview identifying guiding principles for the new EU criminal law. He takes a very prudent stance in inviting the Council, the Commission and also Parliament to note that criminal law is nevertheless a major and important restriction on basic rights, and hence a proper approach to it is needed. I am sure that this report and this invitation by Parliament will be an important guide for those required to act, especially the Council."@en1
