Calls on the Commission to detail the situations which will trigger the Solidarity Clause, as well as the democratic procedure for it to be applied, which should also ensure accountability for decisions taken; encourages the Commission to outline a fair system laying out how Member States should pool in the necessary equipment or resources in the spirit of solidarity if the need arises;
Amendment 17 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 5
Paragraph 5
5. Draws attention to the fact that Article 222 TFEU specifically refers to the prevention of terrorist threats and the protection of society against them; believes therefore that the Commission's proposal should not only deal with the response to an attack or a disaster, but also include concrete measures to enhance the cooperation in the prevention and protection against these threats; in this respect, stresses the importance of having strong links between the Solidarity Clause and the Internal Security Strategy and full involvement of Europol, Eurojust and Frontex and thus recalls the importance of the EU counter terrorism strategy;
