In 't Veld asks questions about non-implementation of security measures - Main contents

Yesterday, the NOS published an article about the fact that the Dutch authorities, including Schiphol Airport, fail to check fingerprints in passports, as required by a 2009 Regulation.

Sophie in 't Veld asked the following questions to the Commission, which have to be answered with priority within three weeks.
