9 Amendments of Laura HUHTASAARI related to 2021/0393(COD)

Amendment 43 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 6
(6) As the register has been set up after Regulation (EU) 2018/1727 had already been adopted, the European Judicial Counter-Terrorism Register is neither technically well integrated at Eurojust nor legally well integrated in Regulation (EU) 2018/1727. Therefore, it is necessary to remedy that by adopting a consistent approach to the verification of identified potential links between terrorism cases and the effective follow-up of these links. The management of the information in the European Judicial Register and the follow-up of potential links must be carried out in full respect of confidentiality and data ownership.

Amendment 60 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 12
(12) For the identification of cross-links between terrorism investigations and judicial proceedings against suspects of terrorist offences, reliable identification data is crucial. Due to the uncertainties regarding alphanumerical data especially for third country nationals, it should be possible to exchange biometric data, provided that such data are collected and stored and can be transmitted to the competent national authorities in accordance with the national law of each Member State. Due to the sensitive nature of biometric data and the impact processing of biometric data has on the respect for private and family life and the protection of personal data, as enshrined in Articles 7 and 8 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, a strict necessity test should be applied by the competent authorities and Eurojust in each case.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 13
(13) As information about existing cross-links to other judicial proceedings is most useful at an early stage of the investigation, it is necessary that the competent authorities provide information to Eurojust as soon as judicial authorities are involvedthe opportunity arises, in accordance with the national law of each Member State. If the competent national authorities are already aware of cross-links, they should inform Eurojust accordingly.

Amendment 71 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 15
(15) Given the sensitive nature of judicial proceedings against suspects of terrorist offences, it is not always possible for the competent national authorities to share the information on terrorist offences at the earliest stage. Such derogations from the obligation to provide informationIf the transmission of information could jeopardise ongoing investigations or the security of the person or the Member State concerned, the competent national authorities should not be obliged to provide Eurojust with information on terrorist offences at the initial stage of the proceedings. Information sharing should remain an exceptional measure.
