Positions

Thanks to improve this part with opinions from Raül ROMEVA i RUEDA about Squaring the Net concerned issues (see page Help:Political_Memory to know how to do it).

I supported resolution RC7-0154/2010 on the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement, and I am glad that a large majority of Parliament did so. ACTA risks becoming known as the ‘Absence of Commission Transparency Agreement’. In its negotiations on ACTA, the Commission should be upholding the principles of transparency, human rights and the EU Parliament’s legal right to information. Instead, the Commission is failing this litmus test of its compliance in informing Parliament under the terms of the Lisbon Treaty. The EU cannot continue to negotiate on ACTA if the people are not allowed to take part in the process.



It is also a totally absurd and unacceptable situation if MEPs, behind closed doors, have to ask the Commission about the content of the agreements we are supposed to vote on. Further more, the EU Parliament has shown that it does not accept secrecy and that it cherishes an open internet for all. MEPs have also shown that the Parliament will not accept to be treated like a doormat. The Commission has been strongly urged to keep us fully and immediately informed on the ACTA negotiations.

ACTA (Acord Comercial de la Lluita contra la Falsificació): opacitat, riscos i desproporció (Catalonian)

Very supportive to our positions.
