Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 10
10. Welcomes the fact that the new Treaty extends to the European Parliament the right of initiative concerning revision of the Treaties, recognises that Parliament has the right to participate in the Convention and that its consent is required in the event that the European Council considers that there is no reason to convene the Convention; considers that this recognition militates in favour of recognising that the European Parliament has a right of full participation in the Intergovernmental Conference (IGC) on similar terms with the Commission; considers that, building on the experience of the two previous IGCs, an interinstitutional arrangement could in the future define the guidelines for the organisation of IGCs, notably in relation to the participation of the European Parliament and issues concerning transparency; takes the view that such an interinstitutional arrangement should at any event guarantee the European Parliament a greater diversity of representation than hitherto;

Amendment 5 #

2008/2063(INI)

Draft opinion
Paragraph 6
6. The multiannual programme for the FSJA should continue to be debated in an annual debate which should focus on the protection of fundamental rights in the European Union, on the implementation of the Charter of Fundamental Rights and on Member States' compliance with the values and principles laid down by the new Article 6 of the Treaty on European Union (TEU). It should be based on reports from the Council, the Commission and the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA). The European Parliament shares the view of the Trio Council Presidencies1 (FR,CZ,SW) that a "possible review of the mandate of the Agency for Fundamental Rights should be undertaken by December 31st 2009" and that such a review gives the opportunity to deepen the cooperation with the Council of Europe, its Secretary General, its Commissioner for Human Rights and the relevant Parliamentary assembly committees.

Amendment 12 #

2008/2063(INI)

Draft opinion
Paragraph 17 a (new)
17a. The European Parliament welcomes the Trio Presidency assessment that "Coercive measures should be accompanied by corresponding rules to strengthen the rights of the individual, whether a suspect, victim or witness. The possible development of the rights of victims will be examined on the basis of the Commission's assessment of the implementation of the Framework Decision on the Standing of Victims in Criminal Proceedings. After the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon, a proposal for a legal instrument on procedural rights in criminal proceedings will be expected from the Commission or from Member States."
