lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I proposed two amendments to this report. One – Amendment No 20 – unfortunately failed to get through. I am pleased that Amendment No 21 did. The first amendment was to make sure that national information centres or relevant authorities or police forces, if offered information, would agree to their use in legal proceedings in the Member State where the football fan was arrested. I tabled this because Mark Forrester, my constituent, was convicted in Belgium after the Euro 2000 match, even though the British Intelligence Service offered video evidence to the Belgian authorities showing him walking away from the problems and the violence. That is why I tabled this amendment and indeed voted for it. Unfortunately the Belgian authorities refused to use that. I was hoping that this report would lay down a marker to say that the authorities ought to be able to use information given by national information centres to other Member States. That would allow us to clamp down on real football hooligans; football fans who are innocent would not be caught in a trap."@en1
