European Commission Must Listen to Parliament's Call to Act Against Surveillance Programmes

The most important signal sent by this resolution however is when it “calls on the Commission to present measures providing for the immediate suspension of” the Safe Harbor agreement. This is precisely what La Quadrature du Net and other civil society organisations have been demanding since the beginning of Edward Snowden's revelations. The suspension of this agreement, if enacted by the European Commission, would represent a concrete and effective measure, a necessary step to put a stop to the mass surveillance of European citizens. It would also push renegotiation of transatlantic relations on this matter.
