"(
) Mr President, I believe that we all agree with the need to protect people and goods and ensure security on public transport. There are legitimate concerns about body scanners. I hope that three of them will be resolved by the studies that the Commission is carrying out. I ask that they conclude them promptly and refer them to Parliament. Firstly, is it necessary and effective? Secondly, is it or is it not harmful to health? Thirdly, does it or does it not violate the privacy and dignity of individuals?
There are, however, other concerns. Initially we were told that it would be optional. People could choose between submitting themselves to the scanners or to the old system of a personal check. It seems, however, that certain Member States are implementing the ‘no check, no fly’ principle as obligatory.
I would like to congratulate Commissioner Cecilia Malmström on the comprehensive assessment which she is going to discuss with Parliament, and I would like to stress that we have a responsibility to find solutions which promote security without compromising the rights of individuals."@en1
