"Mr President, I welcome today’s vote on improving EU gun control. I was privileged to chair the trilogue negotiations, and I want to thank the rapporteur and shadows for all their hard work. We will see improved conditions for authorisation requirements and safe storage. We will see a revised categorisation aimed at increasing public security. We will see that activities of collectors will be covered by this directive, closing the existing legal loophole, and we will see easier rules of traceability.
Thanks to the key role played by the S&D Group, the revised directive on the acquisition and possession of firearms in the EU will ensure that public security will be strengthened via better exchange of information among authorities. We will see more stringent rules on deactivation and use of the most dangerous semi-automatic firearms, and better monitoring systems for checking the medical conditions of users. At the same time, the rights of legal owners and users will be preserved. I thank all who have been involved in this, and I look forward to the speedy application of this directive."@en1
