lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I would like to ask you to take note of the fact that in this building there are meeting rooms with no screen. And while there are plenary sittings and meetings under way at the same time, it would be a good thing if all the rooms had screens, if that is not too much trouble. Mr President, our Group has significant doubts, and reasonable doubts, in relation to the EURODAC report presented. We have already rejected a report which intended, in unclear terms, and for who knows what reason, to take the fingerprints of the illegal immigrants who arrive in the European Union. We have a new proposal, this time from the Commission, which makes important advances. This new proposal says that the fingerprints of illegal immigrants – because we are talking about the extension of the existing EURODAC programme to illegal immigrants – will only be taken in application of the Dublin Asylum Convention, that is to say, only in order to find out whether these immigrants have asked for asylum in another Member State of the European Union. We are not opposed to this idea, on the contrary, we are not against clarifying whether there is a Member State responsible for the handling of the case if it is shown that a person has already applied for asylum. But we have many doubts about this massive taking of fingerprints – because we believe it will be massive – of people who have crossed borders illegally or who are in an illegal situation in a Member State. Therefore, we believe that a little more time is needed to carry out the proposed extension of the EURODAC system. What we are clear about is that it is not acceptable to apply it to minors. In this respect we will stand firm. We will demand that this system be applied only to adults, because minors require other legal provisions if they are not accompanied. And if they are with their family, that family will enter the system."@en1
