(5a) There is regrettably still no large, comprehensive study of the use of fingerprints from children. The existing pilot projects in this field do not provide sufficient information to take such a fundamental and far-reaching decision. An age limit should therefore be chosen in a responsible manner and must be based on past experience (e.g. the US visitors' programme or Eurodac).
