Mr President, I would like to congratulate the rapporteur on the very cooperative arrangements he established, which enabled our committee to arrive at its conclusions.
Commissioner, I have a little story for you. Imagine two prisoners, both of whom are citizens of the same Member State and who are both in prison in another Member State. They have committed the same crime. They have received identical sentences. After several years, both are eligible for transfer back to their home Member State. One has behaved beautifully, has been a model prisoner, has repented, has learned and has changed, while the other has behaved very badly, is unreformed and needs more help.
However, and this is the problem I want to draw your attention to, the information on the two prisoners cannot be transferred back across the borders with the prisoners, because present-day data privacy laws prevent the transfer of data across frontiers. This means that the receiving Member State has no idea as to which of the prisoners is a continuing threat, and which is safe to release back into society.
Commissioner, could you please take action to ensure that the data can travel with the prisoners when we get to that stage?"@en1
