lpv:translated text	"I voted in favour of this report because so far, the European Union has often developed criminal law provisions on an ad hoc basis, thus creating the need for increased coherence. A separate space has not been developed for criminal law provisions. In accordance with the Treaty on European Union, the Union pledges to offer its citizens an area of freedom, security and justice without internal borders, in which the free movement of persons is ensured in conjunction with appropriate measures with respect to the prevention and combating of crime. Criminal law provisions can therefore be found in instruments relating to justice and home affairs, but they can also be found in many other policy areas of the Union. There is a need for Parliament to develop its own procedures in order to ensure, together with the colegislator, a more coherent and effective criminal law system of the highest quality. It is not a criminal law provision in itself that may lead to less crime in the EU – the investigation of criminal offences and enforcement of penalties imposed for them is equally, if not more, important. The harmonisation of criminal law in the EU should contribute to the development of a common EU legal culture in relation to fighting crime, which adds up to but does not substitute national legal traditions and has a positive impact on mutual trust amongst the legal systems of the Member States."@en1
