"The new-generation security scanners appear to offer a suitable means of improving security in EU air transport.
They provide added value in relation to the effectiveness of security screening at EU airports and are also proportional to the risk that is being averted. We agree with their addition to the list of permissible screening and control methods and technologies that European citizens can choose, in that we believe that it is vital to adopt all the necessary measures to guarantee their security, while not curtailing their fundamental rights.
We are also in favour of implementing harmonised rules across the EU regulating operating conditions and common standards for the detection performance of scanners. It should not be forgotten that screening, the intelligence and security services, the exchange of police information and analysis of the human factor are key elements in the area of aviation security as a whole.
Lastly, we believe that the use of body scanners provides the highest level of protection for European citizens. In short, it is a question of protecting democratic values and fighting against the terrorism that threatens them."@en1
