"The problems associated with the Passenger Name Records (PNR) Agreement are many and have already been discussed in detail elsewhere. It is therefore more than reasonable to allow this agreement, with which the Commission is once again sacrificing the rights of EU citizens on the altar of our so-called transatlantic cooperation, to be examined closely by the Court of Justice of the European Union. Whether this agreement is actually compatible with the EU Treaties and the Convention on Human Rights needs to be examined. If people claim that this PNR agreement is better than no agreement at all then that is indeed true, but only from the point of view of the airlines, because it will enable them to counter a complaint from a passenger that his or her fundamental rights have been violated by the transfer of data to the US authorities by pointing to this agreement. Thus, this agreement most definitely reduces the rights of EU citizens, which is why it is to be rejected in the strongest possible terms. I therefore voted in favour of the report proposing that the agreement be submitted to the Court of Justice of the European Union."@en1
