Sinn Fein MEPs to vote against collecting airline passenger data - Boylan

The European Parliament will today vote on a proposed EU law that will require airlines to hand over data on passengers flying in and out of the EU. The information will include passengers’ names, passport and contact details along with travel and credit card information. Those in favour of the Passenger Name Record Directive or PNR say it will help in the fight against terrorism. However, all of the Irish Sinn Fein MEPs are to vote against it. Sinn Fein’s Dublin MEP Lynn Boylan says there’s no justification for passing the PNR law.
