"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I wish to draw your attention to the frequent incidents involving a disgraceful practice which has become established at Sofia airport where passengers’ luggage is opened without authorisation and items frequently go missing from it. I receive numerous complaints from passengers who are receiving their suitcases with locks broken and finding out that their personal belongings are missing. No effective action has been taken so far to tighten control over luggage handling and stop this practice, in spite of the warnings given to Sofia Airport EAD. The breaches of security and safety requirements, along with the unauthorised access to passengers’ luggage, could provide an opportunity for a terrorist attack or some other attack being carried out with tragic consequences. These facts are evidence of gross contempt for European aviation regulations and the provision of airport services. I urge the Bulgarian authorities to carry out stringent inspection and monitoring of the ground operators who have been awarded licences. With flight security in mind, I urge the Bulgarian authorities to focus their attention on temporarily suspending the rights of Sofia Airport EAD under the licence issued as a ground service operator."@en1
