Joint meeting LIBE-DROI on terrorist blacklists

European Parliament
Monday, February 18, 2008

On Monday 18 February in Strasbourg (19.00-20.30), the LIBE and DROI committees will hold an exchange of views with Mr Dick Marty, Chairman and rapporteur of the Legal Affairs and Human Rights Committee of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, on "the United Nations Security Council and European Union blacklists" (PACE resolution: 1597 (2008)). The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) considers that the procedures used by the UN Security Council and the EU to blacklist individuals and groups suspected of having connections with terrorism violate basic rights and are "completely arbitrary". Its members accordingly insist that they must be reviewed "to preserve the credibility of the international fight against terrorism". The purpose of this meeting is to share information on the judicial, institutional and political perspectives of this important question, also related to the protection of fundamental rights.

From 19 February, a 5 minute recording of the meeting will be available on the EbS website, by clicking "EbS on demand" and selecting "Monday 20.30h" from the list of programmes.
