The Committee considered the draft Report.
Paragraphs 1 to 24 (now 23) were agreed to, with
amendments.
It was moved by the Lord Marlesford to leave out
paragraphs 25 and 26 (now
24 and 25), and to substitute:
The collection and use of biometrics to establish
a reliable record of personal identity is expanding in many countries.
This identification data should be available for any legitimate
government purpose. It therefore makes sense for the police to
have access to the Eurodac fingerprint database. It is important
that the legality of this police access should be clearly established
under EU and domestic law.
The Committee divided:
