"Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, Mr Díaz de Mera has already recalled the circumstances under which this Directive was adopted. The fact is that Member States have made use, in particular, of the period of retention of data, with the six-month to two-year period clearly being one of the tools most used by a large number of Member States. Several speakers have already mentioned the problems we are having due to the Directive having been transposed into national law in very different ways, and virtually all of the speakers have rightly underlined the problems that we are having as regards the protection of fundamental rights and the right to privacy. There is clearly an issue here that we must tackle. I must say that I am with those who enjoyed the Commissioner’s answers. I appreciate the Commissioner’s concerns about the scope of the Directive, the limitation of its subject matter and the reduction of retention periods. Everything that the Commissioner has said is covered, in my view, by the efforts to revise this Directive, which we must work on together. What worries me is the time problem. I was convinced that the Commission was going to present an initiative by the end of this year. The Commissioner has already said that this will not happen by the end of this year, but she has also not given us any time horizon. I fear that, at the end of this debate, we will all be thinking that in six months, a year, perhaps two years, we will still be asking the European Commission when the revised Directive will be presented."@en1
