The treaty was signed by the European Commission. This is mostly for
the show. Before the treaty can enter into force, it needs to be
ratified by the European Parliament *and* the national
parliaments. <br>

<div>The European Parliament’s international trade
committee has rejected a proposal by David Martin, an
MEP who is drafting the Parliament’s position on ACTA.
Martin wanted to ask the European Court of Justice for
its opinion on the controversial anti-piracy treaty, but
the committee decided yesterday that wasn’t needed and
will now vote in June on whether to approve ACTA.
Opponents of the treaty see the development as a
victory.</div>
