Mr President, before I start my closing remarks I should like to respond to the remark by Mr Batten. I should like to draw his attention to the fact that, as far as the Commission and the Council are concerned, we are absolutely certain that the European Parliament had no intention other than to control cash flows in order to combat terrorism and organised crime.
I should like to comment briefly on the three amendments proposed by the rapporteur. The Commission fully understands the rapporteur’s desire to ensure that full and proper attention is paid to the data protection issues. That certainly deserves underlining at a time when a range of strong enforcement measures are on the table.
The Commission considers that the three amendments proposed do not restrict or enlarge the scope of the existing data protection provisions but instead focus attention on the need to apply them appropriately when dealing with travellers carrying large sums of cash. The Commission considers that drawing attention to this requirement is positive and would accordingly accept the three amendments tabled.
Given the Council’s acceptance of these amendments, I consider that Mr Peillon’s report provides us with a real opportunity to bring the lengthy examination of this proposal to a successful conclusion. I would hope that you can confirm your support during the vote on this proposal."@en1
