lpv:translated text	"Mr President, you clearly need not have rushed, for the Council’s response was indeed very brief. It surprises me that this question should fall within the exclusive remit of the Commission, but that it deemed admissible for this Question Time to the Council. Ladies and gentlemen, the response illustrates that there is an urgent need for democratic control of Europol. I am indeed familiar with Article 30 of the Treaty on European Union, but there is no denying the fact that the case file is as it stands. It is likely that Europol uses stolen information technology, and this at the expense of a German firm which was led to the brink of bankruptcy. The services of the German intelligence service were called in, and the case involved many tens of millions of European government money. A Europol employee is being arrested as we speak, and other arrests may be imminent. I would ask the Council whether it is prepared to agree on a drastic overhaul of Europol. If not, what is the reason for that decision, and why does the Council give its blessing to police cooperation getting off to such a bad start?"@en1
