WRITTEN QUESTION E-2671/99 by Klaus-Heiner Lehne (PPE-DE) to the Commission. Cards for EU citizens entering Italy.
Official Journal 225 E , 08/08/2000 P. 0190 - 0190
WRITTEN QUESTION E-2671/99 by Klaus-Heiner Lehne (PPE-DE) to the Commission (12 January 2000) Subject: Cards for EU citizens entering Italy On 15 November 1999 German tourists on a ferry from Tunis to Livorno (Italy) had to have orange cards stamped. Otherwise, according to the Italian authorities, they would have been refused entry to Italy. Customs officials said that without the stamp they would not have been allowed to leave the ship. Entry into Italy was delayed as a result by several hours. The tourists regarded this as harassment pure and simple. Is there any reason why EU citizens have to present special entry permits for Italy? If not, what action does the Commission intend to take? Answer given by Mr Vitorino on behalf of the Commission (17 February 2000) The Commission will make the necessary contacts with the Italian authorities in order to obtain all the details on the facts reported by the Honourable Member. It will not fail to take such action as may be necessary under the procedure provided for by Article 226 (former Article 169) of the EC Treaty.
