"Mr President, Commissioner, various modes of transport cross many national borders. This should not lead to the constant changing of requirements and conditions. That is why it is desirable, for the benefit of those modes of transport, that international legislation be introduced.
Consequently, rules on the position of air passengers should ideally have a global character. The Warsaw Convention, which is still applicable, has worldwide status, and its successor, the Montreal Convention, is also being given that status. This means that the rapporteur’s approach appeals to me a great deal. Her commitment to directly link EU legislation to the Montreal Convention appears to be the best solution by far. In addition, the reinforcement and clarification of the rights of passengers are, in the light of current practice, certainly no unnecessary luxury.
In short, we too believe that Mrs Sanders-ten Holte has drafted an excellent report, for which I would like to extend my warm thanks and congratulations."@en1
