"Mr President, when the Commissioner was speaking about the reform, she mentioned that it would be within the bounds of proportionality. No directive ever states that it is not within the bounds of proportionality; the same thing happened with passenger name records. However, in practice, without a directive that refers to exceptional cases, which are the only circumstances in which fundamental rights could be violated, we find ourselves in a situation that cannot be resolved. How can we settle on a definition of ‘serious crime’ if there are eight countries that do not talk about serious crime in the context of data retention but any type of crime? The volume of data and frequency of data retention involved make it completely impossible to manage these data properly for the purposes of tackling crime. Even when pursuing criminals and prosecuting crimes, it is not true that anything goes. The end does not justify the means. Only in exceptional cases can human rights be violated. We really need to reconsider this Directive. We cannot legislate in this manner."@en1
