"It was with no small joy, indeed with a sense of vindication that I took part on 1 March with my colleague Kinga Gál, as representatives of the EP, in the inauguration of the Fundamental Rights Agency. Although opinions of the political elite were divided all along on this matter, in the end, we succeeded in creating a body within the European Union to deal professionally with human rights. The merit belongs in no small measure to the dedicated Vice-President Frattini, to the Presidency for its willingness to compromise, and last but not least, to our own Parliament. The time has come for those who were sceptical until now to accept the existence of the Fundamental Rights Agency and give it their support in the future. And understand this: the political decision of the Council has made it possible, even if this is not in the law, to extend investigations to the third pillar, and thus to police cooperation as well. Mr Schmitt: this House is not the place to bring nebulous accusations against Budapest. Instead, it is the Agency, founded and competent in this matter since 1 March, which must be asked to investigate. Mr Schmitt! They are the experts in this matter."@en1
