"I am opposed to the creation of a European Fundamental Rights Agency, and therefore I did not support the Multi-Annual Framework for 2007-2012. I believe that the proposed creation of this agency and its functions are not only a waste of money but also a dangerous political initiative, whose long-term effects will be damaging to the Member States of the Union, The basic tasks assigned to this agency amount to a clear intrusion into the sovereignty of Member States. The agency’s existence cannot be justified. There are already institutions charged with safeguarding democracy and protecting human rights in every European country. In my view, this agency’s activities will inevitably extend beyond the thematic areas for which it was established. For example, in the course of today’s vote on Amendment 6 to the recitals, the question of defining a human being and establishing the point at which it acquires human rights arose. I consider this type of action to be an outrageous attempt to covertly impose dangerous ideological notions in the framework of the European Union."@en1
