"We broadly agree with the criticism made of the proposal for a European Parliament recommendation on SIS II as to its effects on safeguards for citizens’ fundamental rights (protection of data and privacy) and to the growing use of the SIS as a tool for police cooperation, in an increasingly supranational context without any proper checks.
Our main reasons for rejecting this proposal are:
the extension of SIS II to encompass new areas and functions, allowing undefined users – possibly even private operators;
a confused and obscure jumble, out of which emerges an exaggerated and accelerated (ultra)federalist approach: for example, the prospect of creating a single and centralised ‘EU information system’ – a real ‘Big Brother’;
a dangerous approach to cooperation with third countries, particularly with the USA and its ‘war on terrorism’;
inadequate and poorly-defined data protection.
What is more crucial for the moment is keeping the system strictly within the limits for which it was created, not providing third countries access to information, ensuring that national bodies protect their data, in line with the national regulations that apply in each State, and opening a debate on the system, by introducing a moratorium."@en1
