NB. I cannot find a copy of the IMCO Second Reading recommendations, consolidated version, online, so here is the text of the two amendments I refer to above.
Article 32a
Access to content, services and applications
Member States shall ensure that any restrictions to
users' rights to access content, services and
applications, if they are necessary, shall be
implemented by appropriate measures, in
accordance with the principles of proportionality,
effectiveness and dissuasiveness. These measures
shall not have the effect of hindering the
development of the information society, in
compliance with Directive 2000/31/EC, and shall not
conflict with citizens' fundamental rights, including
the right to privacy and the right to due process."

Amendment 6=110
This is the amendment which has disappeared from the IMCO committee consolidated version. The issue with the amendment below, is what is crossed out - the provision that ISPs will not be required to take punitive action against their subscribers, where 'punitive action' could be 3-strikes measures, or protocol blocking, as proposed in the UK's Digital Britain consultation. The removal of this provision, leaves the way open for ISPs to take these kinds of measures against their customers. This was made clear in the justification by M. Toubon.
If it has been withdrawn, wouldn't correctprocedure be to tell MEPs? If this is not made clear, could they still be asked to vote on in in the May 5th plenary.
Universal services directive Recital (22a)
Directive 2002/22/EC does not
require providers to monitor information
transmitted over their networks or to
take punitive action or legal prosecution [<-- ova linija je precrtana]
bring legal proceedings against their
customers due to on grounds of such
information, nor does it make providers
liable for that information. Responsibility
for any such punitive action or legal [<-- takodje precrtano]
criminal prosecution remains with the
relevant law enforcement authorities.
