"Airport security was tightened up tremendously in the wake of the attacks in New York, London and Madrid. That is absolutely necessary in order to thwart possible attacks, but there are limits to what is permissible. Fortunately, the report covering the use of security scanners at airports has been improved considerably when it comes to the protection of privacy. Thus, the report no longer expresses a clear preference for body scanners but instead allows for other security screening technologies to be used. These technologies must also be guaranteed not to adversely affect the health or fundamental rights of passengers. As a result, data gathered from screening of this nature may only be used in that context and must be deleted immediately for reasons of privacy. Another restriction is that there must be no use of profiling. Screening must take place on a random basis and there must certainly not be any selection on the basis of specific characteristics. Finally, X-ray technology is prohibited on the grounds of the health of both passengers and workers. Our group also proposed forcing a revision of the Groundhandling Directive. I gave my full backing to this report because it had been significantly improved in large part due to amendments tabled by the Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance."@en1
