The Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs adopted, by a slight majority (30 votes to 25, with no abstentions) the report by Timothy KIRKHOPE (ECR, UK) on the proposal for a directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on the use of Passenger Name Record data for the prevention, detection, investigation and prosecution of terrorist offences and serious crime.

The committee recommends that the European Parliament should reject the Commission proposal. It calls on the Commission to withdraw its proposal.
