I voted for the proposal to limit access by the general public to chemicals that may be used to make home-made explosives, thereby reducing the threat of attacks and increasing the level of security for EU citizens. Legislative and non-legislative measures regarding trade in such substances are not harmonised in the EU and while the purchase of a certain substance might be controlled in one country, the same substance can still be bought in another country. It is essential to ensure harmonised purchase controls for these substances throughout the EU, thereby reducing the possibility for terrorists to use the different safety rules of the EU Member States to their advantage. Furthermore, harmonised rules would be beneficial to wholesalers and retailers. I agree with the proposals regarding the possibility of purchasing substances in concentrations higher than those set out provided that the buyer presents a licence to purchase that substance. I agree with the proposal that any transaction deemed to be ‘suspicious’ on any ‘reasonable’ grounds should be reported to a single national contact point."@en1
