Mr President, I shall not use all my speaking time now, but it is possible that I may wish to take the floor again at the end of the debate, if I may, to respond to any questions.
First and foremost, I would like to point out that the aim of this report is to adapt our legislation to the changes that entered into force when Parliament was given the power of codecision on trade matters through the new Treaty.
It is essentially a rather technical question to accelerate the procedure and ensure that we do not delay it for an uncommonly long time. In order to do this, the Commission has stated that we need delegated acts in order both to achieve predictability and to ensure that Parliament does not sit with long lists of products, going through them one at a time. Some of these questions should have been dealt with more quickly by experts in delegated acts; we should now be able to limit these.
The challenge here is that we must deal with this item rather quickly. If we do not, we will have old lists of so-called ‘dual-use items’ that only cover the system changes that have taken place up until 2010. We must deal with the item that we are discussing now rather quickly in order for us to be able to cover all of the changes that took place during 2011.
When we discussed the question in the committee, we unfortunately had a little too much conflict, and quite unnecessarily. A great many views were expressed that did not relate to the technical question of how we should work with delegated acts and achieve faster, more efficient processing, and on that point, I believe the shadow rapporteur and I essentially agree.
Many other questions have also been taken up and discussed. I understand from the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament, among others, that some further amendments will be tabled. This applies, for example, to the proposals on IT security, transparency, etc. I shall merely point out that I agree with several of them and think that several of them are relevant. I shall not, however, take them up here and risk delaying adoption of this document with reference to the amendments that the S&D Group, among others, has tabled.
Of course, we know that there will be a big overhaul of the entire system of dual-use items. The Commission is planning to submit some things in 2013, and there will be a legislative proposal in 2014. I therefore do not see any compelling reasons as to why we must implement the amendments that I know have been put forward by the S&D Group, among others.
I therefore hope that we can now take this technical item and ensure that we facilitate it so that we can then, at a later date, come back to many of the relevant views that my colleagues have had. I now hope that we can deal with this item quickly and efficiently in accordance with the committee’s proposal."@en1
