lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I would like to support the statement made by Mr Gaubert, my colleague from the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats) and European Democrats, that this House has missed the opportunity to speak with one voice and to support the resolution he has drawn up. This document highlights the kind of mechanisms that should be introduced in the European Union: constant monitoring of racist crimes, the introduction of a framework directive and the creation of an Agency for Fundamental Rights as soon as possible. These should be priorities in our debate and in our resolution, rather than the slinging of mud at certain countries and cases, as seems to be happening here. The European Union is trying to uphold the highest human rights standards. That is the aim of the Agency for Fundamental Rights which is to be set up soon. Already, a report is published annually by the Vienna-based European Monitoring Centre on Racism and Xenophobia on the subject of racism and xenophobia in the European Union. It is worth looking at the 2005 report. Under point 5 on racist violence and crime there is an assessment of the situation in the 25 Member States. What can we learn from this text? In four European countries, including Italy, Mrs Agnoletto, there is a lack of publicly accessible official data on incidents of racist crime and violence. Amongst the new Member States, the report states, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia collect official data on racist violence and crime on a broader scale than other countries. We lack a unified European system for registering these crimes, and this makes it difficult to carry out comparable analyses of this phenomenon. Over 52 000 incidents of a racist nature have been registered in the United Kingdom, thanks to an efficient system for recording such statistics, 6 400 incidents have been registered in Germany, 1 565 in France and 209 in the Czech Republic. This disproportion shows how important it is to introduce a unified monitoring system. The majority of the 25 European Union Member States, we read, have transposed the Anti-Discrimination Directive into their own national contexts. In July 2000 complaints were filed at the European Court of Justice against four countries, including Germany, Mr Schulz, for not fulfilling their obligations concerning the directives on racial equality."@en1
