Mr President, Commissioner Frattini, I am pleased to hear that this new Commission will be rectifying a number of mistakes made by its predecessor. That is important because my country, the Netherlands, will, in a few months’ time, be holding a referendum on the Constitution. I would like to be able to look those members of the Dutch public who are rather sceptical about it straight in the eye and tell them that this Constitution, those constitutional rights and the protection of personal data are really serious and not simply lip service.
Let me turn first to the protection of personal data, which is a matter of general interest. You said that you personally are opposed to the proposal tabled by the four countries. I should like to hear what this means in institutional terms.
As for the transfer of passenger data, the PNR issue, concerning which there was a report on which my predecessor Mrs Boogerd-Quaak worked very hard, will the Joint Review, which you mentioned a moment ago, also state how many attacks have been pre-empted and how many criminals have been arrested? That, in the final analysis, is what this is all about.
Secondly, you stated that information is already being handed out to the passengers, but what about the duty to ask for explicit permission before their data can be transferred?
Finally, I should like to find out from you what steps the Commission has taken so far in order to introduce the push system."@en1
