Fru formand, mine damer og herrer, da Udvalget om Retlige Anliggender og Borgernes Rettigheder afgav udtalelse om konventionen om udarbejdelse af Det Europæiske Informationssystem, rådede det kun over et udkast til konvention fra december 1995, som ikke var færdigbehandlet i Rådet.
Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, when the Committee on Legal Affairs and Citizens' Rights delivered its opinion on the convention on the establishment of the European Information System, it had at its disposal only a draft convention dated December 1995, which was still being examined by the Council of Ministers.
