lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I abstained on the de Jong report on an EU approach to criminal law. I felt that the report was an interesting one, the approach was thoughtful and there were certain bits I could agree with. The rapporteur rightly acknowledges that there are several important differences between the criminal law and criminal proceedings systems of the different EU Member States, and that each has its specific individual characteristics. Nevertheless, I cannot back a report that advocates a unified approach to criminal law across the Member States, as I am convinced that each individual Member State should be competent to deal with these matters. So I reject ‘Corpus Juris’. Our individual systems of criminal law and proceedings have evolved over many years, and each Member State has its own crime patterns and a legal culture specific to itself. I would therefore propose that our individual criminal justice systems are better placed to deal with crime in our own countries than would be a system imposed from the top down by the European Union."@en1
