Customs: information technology, files identification database. Initiative Germany, Belgium and France

The European Parliament adopted a resolution based on the report by Jorge Salvador HERNANDEZ MOLLAR (EPP-ED, Spain) and made some amendments to the French, Belgian and German initiative. These mainly emphasised the right of individuals to protection of personal data. An article is inserted to the effect that Member States must guarantee a level of personal protection of data which is at least equivalent to that afforded by the Europe Convention of 1981. Member States must guarantee individuals the right to obtain definitive information that the FIDE contains data concerning them, and details of that data.�
