lpv:translated text	". The Committee on Citizens’ Freedoms and Rights, Justice and Home Affairs has submitted a proposal to Parliament rejecting an initiative from the Kingdom of Denmark under the third pillar. The Commission and your rapporteur believe that this position must be adopted to ensure that Parliament clearly states its deep dissatisfaction with the situation of paralysis afflicting the third pillar, for which the Member States are responsible. Important Commission proposals both before and after 11 September 2001, primarily the package of measures to combat terrorism, remain blocked in the Council or are still awaiting transposal or ratification by the Member States. Unable to achieve the consensus necessary in the Council, or to honour their commitments in national legislation, the Member States are using and abusing their right of initiative. We have received a plethora of outlandish proposals, by which I mean proposals that do not form part of any plan and did not feature in the Commission’s ‘scoreboard’. These are arbitrary, insignificant, incoherent proposals, sometimes dictated by the national political agenda, and transform the third pillar into an ever-expanding universe, containing chaos in all directions; a bureaucratic ball of thread without ends. It is the European Parliament’s duty to condemn this smokescreen, which consists of apparent legislative hyperactivity, which contributes to disguising the Union’s lethargy in a crucial area, especially after 11 September 2001 – and the political inability of the Council and the Member States to bring a single significant measure coming from the Commission and laid out in the scoreboard into force. The gulf between the words of political leaders, not least government representatives, and their translation into concrete actions is taking on scandalous proportions in the field of combating transnational crime. We must put an end to this situation. This is the message that the European Parliament wishes to send to the Council and to the Member States."@en1
