lpv:translated text	". The Deprez report is supposedly intended to deal with the problem of violence at international football matches. And we say supposedly because the only proposal which either the report or the European Union Council has to make is that the Member States should be required to set up national football information points, that is, ‘information points of a police nature’, responsible for collecting, storing, processing, analysing and exchanging information on types of fans, both dangerous fans and fans in general. This attempt to deal with the problem by using the police to suppress violence at football matches is merely an excuse for trampling the personal and democratic rights and freedoms of the citizens of the ΕU underfoot. The increase in violent clashes at national and international sporting events is not due to a lack of information networks or adequate suppression mechanisms; it is due to the commercialisation of sport, the huge financial interests tied up in it, the misleading fanatical ‘sports’ culture being fostered (hooliganism) and the increase in violent behaviour, especially among the young. In other words, it is caused by situations which derive from the very nature of the capitalist system and neither the Council nor the European Parliament texts under debate makes any reference whatsoever to these serious issues. That is why the MEPs of the Communist Party of Greece voted against the report."@en1
