lpv:translated text	". Mr President, I am pleased that the first of three agreements is finally to be signed and sealed. Naturally I would like to see this helping to speed up our negotiations with Canada and the US, however I also hope that the agreement will become a kind of template for the future. When faced with issues like this, we generally always look for the right balance and ways to prevent criminal activity while, on the other hand, seeking to secure the fundamental rights of the individual and to provide legal certainty without restricting everyday functionality. However, this also means recognising that fast, effective exchange of information and data is now essential in order to guarantee internal and external security. In other words, we need to establish a regulatory framework for how we deal with data. I believe that this has been achieved here, although – as the rapporteur has already explained – a number of issues are still outstanding. In particular, close consideration is required when it comes to the question of the legal basis for the agreement, because this may give rise to legal uncertainty in the future. Nonetheless, I believe that the various associated guarantees, such as the entitlement to inspect data, the right to make corrective adjustments or to impose judicial remedies, offer citizens sufficient protection and also ensure effective controls over state intervention in personal rights. We need to be quite clear about one thing: in a mobile world where international terrorism exists, the exchange of PNR data is an effective way to combat crime and means more security for Europe’s citizens. I believe it is unfortunate that we have not been able to convince all groups of the need for this agreement. We would, however, be acting against the best interests of our citizens if we failed to exploit the opportunities available to us to protect them. After all, failure to vote in favour of this agreement means leaving our citizens with a lot less security in relation to data protection than would be available under the terms of the agreement. That is not what we have been elected for. I would like to thank Ms in ’t Veld for her excellent, resolute approach to this matter and for the transparency that she has brought to the issue. I hope that her efforts will be rewarded tomorrow and that it will be possible for data to be exchanged without further delay."@en1
