Amendment 138: The Parliament betrayed by its negotiators
,----[ Quote ]
| Negotiations on the Telecoms Package took a
| worrying turn for citizens rights and freedoms.
| The European Parliament Delegation was betrayed
| by its negotiators, led by Catherine Trautmann
| (S&D) and Alejo Vidal-Quadras (EPP). In total
| contradiction with the mandate given by their
| colleagues representing the Parliament, the
| negotiators unilaterally accepted to work on a
| proposal by the Council of the EU that negates
| citizens' rights1. This dangerous proposition is
| set to replace "amendment 138", voted twice by
| 88% of the Parliament.
