"Parliament’s changes, which do not force countries to refuse to handle applications from people from ‘safe countries’, which demand shorter processing times and which would require asylum seekers not to be treated as criminals, are along the right lines. However, the European Parliament voted against the Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance’s proposal totally to abolish the concept of safe countries and instead to follow international human rights rules on giving individual consideration to asylum seekers. In all probability, the Council will take no account of the improvements voted for by Parliament. When we vote today on this directive, it will instead be the Council’s proposals, which are inimical to human rights, that we shall in practice be voting on. I shall therefore vote against the proposals. Sweden’s Green Party is opposed to a harmonised asylum policy because such a policy is in danger of becoming undemocratic and of precipitating the lowest standards. The result would be both a bad bill and Parliament threatening to go to court citing illegal procedures."@en1
