". I voted in favour of this report as I believe that organised crime, illegal immigration, smuggling and the trafficking of human beings are a constant threat to the EU’s internal security and require reinforced security at external borders. Although this is a fundamentally national matter, which should remain a national competence, there is a pressing need for uniformly high security standards at all of the EU’s external borders. This would entail responsibility sharing with the task of securing sections of these borders that are particularly at risk and general improvements in the effectiveness of measures by means of joint action. Certain tasks should be performed at EU level, in order to support, complement or coordinate the work of national authorities. I agree with the rapporteur with regard to operational cooperation and exchange of information about illegal immigration. I also welcome the Commission’s proposal regarding the creation of a European Corps of Border Guards, comprising special units and financed by the Community, which, if necessary, and at the request of Member States, could be temporarily detached to help the national authorities monitor at-risk sections of the EU’s external borders, without, however, usurping Member States’ competences."@en1
