lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Commissioner, before I ask my question, I would just like to mention that, a week ago, the Polish Parliament passed a bill amending Polish telecommunications legislation. The Commission has been waiting a long time for this to happen. The new provisions will shorten the required data retention period from two years, which was a very long time, to 12 months, allowing Poland to join a group of European countries in which similar provisions are in force. We are currently also working on a data retention law, in particular on provisions governing the type of data retained and who will have access to it. It would therefore be good to know the Commission’s plans as regards changes to European legislation, so that we can begin to incorporate them into our work. The changes in Poland are the result of the work of numerous non-governmental organisations that wrote on this subject and exerted pressure on the authorities, in the belief that the existing arrangements infringed citizens’ right to privacy. It is therefore worth listening carefully, including at European level, not only to Members of the European Parliament, but also to non-governmental organisations concerned with privacy issues. I would like to use this opportunity to ask the Commission whether it has any figures, reports, studies or information on the impact reducing the data retention period may have on the effectiveness of the investigation, detection and prosecution of serious crimes, because that is one of the main arguments in this issue. We are always talking about it, but can we produce any evidence, for example, with regard to prosecutions for crimes such as possession of child pornography? We are never short of statements or arguments, but we have no hard data."@en1
