Common Repository Identity or simply CIR: The European Parliament ψήφισε την περασμένη εβδομάδα για τη εφαρμογή μιας νέας σειράς συστημάτων ελέγχου στα σύνορα για την μετανάστευση και τις Αρχές επιβολής του νόμου. Η Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση θα αποκτήσει μια γιγαντιαία base data with biometrics data citizens of the EU and other countries (PDF).
This new database will also be known as Common Repository Identity (CIR) and will contain data from 350 million people.
According to the EU plan, the CIR will simultaneously collect identity records (names, birthdates, passport numbers and others) and biometrics (fingerprints and face scans). These data will be available to all law enforcement authorities as well as border control.
Its primary role (according to the EU) will be to cut jobs at border controls and services law enforcement, as searching in a unified system will be much faster.
The systems to be integrated include the Schengen Information System, Eurodac, the Visa Information System (VIS) and three new systems: the European Criminal Records System (ECRIS-TCN), the Entry System / EES) and the European System Information and Travel Authorization (ETIAS), EU officials said last week.
The creation of the CIR database was endorsed by the European Parliament last Monday, April 15, in two separate votes. The CIR Border and Control Regulations received 511 positive votes, 123 v, and nine abstentions, while the CIR legislation on police and judicial cooperation, asylum and immigration was adopted with 510 positive votes, 130 v, and nine abstentions.
The European Parliament has promised "adequate safeguards" to protect citizens 'right to privacy and to regulate officers' access to data.
Ever since plans to create this biometric database were announced last year, privacy advocates have not stopped criticizing the EU, saying the creation of the CIR is a "point without return (PDF)”In the creation of an“ EU central database for Big Brother ”.
Once installed, CIR will become one of the largest people-tracking databases in the world, just like the systems that uses the Chinese government and India's Aadhar system.
In the US, the Bureau of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and the Federal Bureau of Investigations have similar biometric databases.

Will all these EU intelligentsies be there after the upcoming European elections?

Each law is repealed with the enactment of a new Law.
And as it is known, a law that does not serve the interests of a People is abolished, altered, modified, etc.
