Euro-deputies in the civil liberties committee on 24 April 2013 rejected a proposal obliging airline companies to pass personal details of EU passengers to member state authorities. The bill, presented in 2011 by the European Commission as a key anti-terrorism measure, was thrown out by 30 votes to 25. It concerned the data of passengers flying into and out of the EU. On 4 June 2013 BBC reported that EU officials said they are very concerned about a new Russian requirement for airlines to transfer detailed passenger data for flights to Russian airports. |
