EU Council may pass ACTA silently during parliamentary recess
Brussels, 2 April 2009 – - The EU Council leaves the possibility open to pass the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) silently during parliamentary vacation. The Foundation for a Free Information Infrastructure (FFII) opposes such secret legislation.
Member of the European Parliament Jens Holm asked the EU Council whether the final draft of ACTA will be published prior to political agreement in the Council. He also asked whether parliaments will have enough time to scrutinise ACTA, and whether the Council can ensure that ACTA is not quietly passed during parliamentary recess. The Council declined to answer these questions.
