Fernando Fernández Martín pointed out that he had been present at the sitting of 03.04.2006, but that his name was not on the attendance register.

2.   Membership of political groups

In the light of a letter he had received from Jens-Peter Bonde, co-chairman of the IND/DEM Group, the President pointed out that the announcement that had been made on the membership of that group at the sitting of 16.03.2006(Minutes of 16.03.2006, Item 2) was to be deemed null and void.

(Minutes of 16.03.2006, Item 2)

Miscellaneous

On behalf of the PPE-DE Group, the rapporteur moved an oral amendment to paragraph 18, which now read as follows:

18. Welcomes the agreement on the elimination, by developed countries, of export subsidies for cotton by 2006 but highlights that this is already required by a recent WTO dispute ruling and notes that these constitute only a small proportion of subsidies that the US gives its cotton farmers; stresses the importance, therefore, of achieving positive results in reducing and eliminating its domestic subsidies; welcomes the provision of duty-free and quota-free market access for cotton exports from LDCs; however, notes the limited impact that this will have; stresses the importance, therefore, of achieving positive results in reducing and eliminating its domestic subsidies; considers that these measures should be complemented by structural supportive reform programmes for farmers and industry in the EU regions affected and with development support measures for the developing countries to be taken by the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund, the UN Development Programme and other international organisations;

Position of the European Parliament adopted at second reading on 4 April 2006 with a view to the adoption of European Parliament and Council Decision No .../2006/EC laying down guidelines for trans-European energy networks and repealing Decision 96/391/EC and Decision No 1229/2003/EC

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 156 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (1),

After consulting the Committee of the Regions,

Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (2)

Whereas:

| (1) | Subsequent to the adoption of Decision No 1229/2003/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2003 laying down a series of guidelines for trans-European energy networks (3), the need has arisen to integrate fully the new Member States, and the accession and candidate countries into those guidelines and to adapt further, as appropriate, those guidelines to the new proximity policy of the European Union. |

(1)

Subsequent to the adoption of Decision No 1229/2003/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2003 laying down a series of guidelines for trans-European energy networks (3), the need has arisen to integrate fully the new Member States, and the accession and candidate countries into those guidelines and to adapt further, as appropriate, those guidelines to the new proximity policy of the European Union.

| (2) | The priorities for trans-European energy networks stem from the creation of a more open and competitive internal energy market as a result of the implementation of Directive 2003/54/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2003 concerning common rules for the internal market in electricity (4)
  and Directive 2003/55/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2003 concerning common rules for the internal market in natural gas (5). Those priorities reflect the conclusions of the Stockholm European Council of 23 and 24 March 2001 concerning the development of the infrastructure needed for the operation of the energy market. A special effort should be undertaken to achieve the objective of making greater use of renewable energy sources as a contribution to further a sustainable development policy. However, this objective should be achieved without creating disproportionate disturbances to the normal market equilibrium. Full account should also be taken of the objectives of the Community's transport policy and, specifically, the opportunity to reduce road traffic by using pipelines. |

| (3) | This Decision serves to move closer towards the target for the level of electricity interconnection between Member States which was agreed at the Barcelona European Council of 15 and 16 March 2002, and thus improve network reliability and integrity, and ensure that there is security of supply and that the internal market functions properly. |

| (4) | As a rule, the construction and maintenance of energy infrastructure should be subject to market principles. This is also in line with the common rules for the completion of the internal market in energy and the common rules on competition law which aim at the creation of a more open and competitive internal energy market. Community financial aid for construction and maintenance should therefore remain highly exceptional, and such exceptions should be duly justified. |

In the light of potential synergies between natural gas networks and olefin networks, due importance should be placed on the development and integration of olefin networks in order to meet the olefin gas consumption needs of industries in the Community.

| (7) | The priorities for trans-European energy networks also stem from the growing importance of the trans-European energy networks for securing and diversifying the Community's energy supplies, incorporating the energy networks of the new Member States, accession and candidate countries, and ensuring the coordinated operation of the energy networks in the Community and in neighbouring countries after consulting the Member States concerned. Indeed, the Community's neighbouring countries play a vital role in its energy policy. They supply a major part of the Community's natural gas requirements, are key partners for the transit of primary energy to the Community and will progressively become more important players in its internal gas and electricity markets. |

ANNEX

DETAILED RECOMMENDATIONS ON THE CONTENT OF THE PROPOSAL REQUESTED

Recommendation 1 (on Article 255 EC and Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 from a constitutional perspective)

The Commission should improve the clarity of the citations and recitals in Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 in order to make it quite clear that Article 255 EC (1), which is the legal basis for the Regulation itself:

| (a) | is the main legal basis in the Treaties for implementing the founding principles of the Union, outlined in Article 1 of the Treaty on the European Union, according to which ‘... decisions are taken as openly as possible and as closely as possible to the citizen’, and in Article 6 EU, according to which ‘the Union is founded on the principles of ... democracy ... and the rule of law’; |

| --- | --- |

(c)

must be sincerely and fully implemented in the Rules of Procedure of the European Parliament (2), the Commission (3) and of the Council (4);

| --- | --- |

(d)

must be applied consistently when the institutions act in a legislative capacity (as outlined in Article 207 EC) or implement EU or EC legislation (Article 202 EC) (5), irrespective of which institution implements the legislation or exercises implementing powers.

Recommendation 2 (on the concepts of legislative and non-legislative documents)

The Commission, following discussion in the inter-institutional committee provided for in Article 15 of Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 and in compliance with the principles outlined in Recommendation 1, should amend the Regulation:

| (a) | by re-defining the concept of ‘legislative documents’, currently defined in Article 12(2), as documents ‘... drawn up or received in the course of procedures for the adoption of acts that are legally binding in or on the Member States’, by adding a reference to the fact that the concept of (legislative) act should be reserved for secondary law only (with a direct legal basis in the Treaties);
  As far as legislative documents are concerned, access should be granted:






  — | to all preparatory documents connected with an identified decisional procedure; access should be granted as soon as those documents are formally submitted by each institution taking part in the decision, |

As far as legislative documents are concerned, access should be granted:

—

to all preparatory documents connected with an identified decisional procedure; access should be granted as soon as those documents are formally submitted by each institution taking part in the decision,

| — | to the record of Parliament or Council debates, where those institutions are acting in a legislative capacity, and to the documents discussed (if not classified, see Recommendation 3 below), |
| --- | --- |

—

to the record of Parliament or Council debates, where those institutions are acting in a legislative capacity, and to the documents discussed (if not classified, see Recommendation 3 below),

| — | to the identity of the author of each initiative or formal amendment, |
| --- | --- |

—

to the identity of the author of each initiative or formal amendment,

| — | to relevant complementary information or documents relating to the meetings of the institutions' working groups, and to the contributions submitted by the secretariats of the institutions (including the legal services), where such documents are not simply administrative in nature. |
| --- | --- |

—

to relevant complementary information or documents relating to the meetings of the institutions' working groups, and to the contributions submitted by the secretariats of the institutions (including the legal services), where such documents are not simply administrative in nature.

The amended Regulation should also be the legal basis for establishing rules, good practice and interinstitutional agreements designed to improve the drafting of legislative texts and to ensure that final legislative texts are accessible, such as the rules to be followed for:

| — | drafting legislative acts, |
| --- | --- |

—

drafting legislative acts,

| — | publishing them in electronic form in the Official Journal, |
| --- | --- |

—

publishing them in electronic form in the Official Journal,

| — | consolidating basic texts with their amending acts, and |

—

consolidating basic texts with their amending acts, and

| — | determining the format of the Official Journal, implementing multilingualism and defining the tasks of OPOCE; |
| --- | --- |

—

determining the format of the Official Journal, implementing multilingualism and defining the tasks of OPOCE;

| (b) | by defining the concept of ‘non-legislative documents’ as documents connected with procedures for implementing legislative acts (whichever institutions are involved) and documents connected with procedures for adopting non-binding acts; it should be possible to apply less stringent transparency rules to such documents, given their administrative nature;
  Therefore the institutions:






  — | should make public the procedure to be followed for non-legislative documents and lay down clearly when and how interested parties may take part in the procedure concerned and when and how the public may have access to the documents, |

by defining the concept of ‘non-legislative documents’ as documents connected with procedures for implementing legislative acts (whichever institutions are involved) and documents connected with procedures for adopting non-binding acts; it should be possible to apply less stringent transparency rules to such documents, given their administrative nature;

Therefore the institutions:

—

should make public the procedure to be followed for non-legislative documents and lay down clearly when and how interested parties may take part in the procedure concerned and when and how the public may have access to the documents,

| — | should also clearly indicate the organisational units involved in administrative procedures, the way in which documents are stored, both temporarily and permanently, and how they can be accessed. |
| --- | --- |

—

should also clearly indicate the organisational units involved in administrative procedures, the way in which documents are stored, both temporarily and permanently, and how they can be accessed.

| (c) | by defining the concept of ‘regulatory documents’
   (6) as documents connected with procedures for adopting acts which complete or amend non-essential elements of legislative acts (as defined in point (a)) regardless of whether such regulatory documents are adopted by the Council or delegated to the Commission; such documents should be accessible ‘mutatis mutandis’ under the same conditions as those applicable to legislative documents (e.g., in comitology procedures, access should be granted as soon as a draft measure is formally submitted to a committee); similarly, access should also be granted to the relevant complementary documents (e.g. the agendas, minutes and result of votes of the committee). |

Recommendation 3 (on documents to be treated as confidential)

Taking into account best practice in the Member States, Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 should also be amended in such a way as to clearly define the ‘... limits on grounds of public or private interest’, as referred to in Article 255 EC, which could delay or prevent access to the institutions' documents (or relevant parts of them); the Regulation should therefore contain rules for:

| (a) | ensuring that, regardless of the field of EU action, the grounds on which basic policy decisions are taken and on which legislation is adopted are in the public domain; there is also a need for clarification of the distinction between, on the one hand, the need for confidentiality as regards, for instance, planned or on-going operations by security services and, on the other hand, the requirements of accountability and a posteriori control, |
| --- | --- |

ensuring that, regardless of the field of EU action, the grounds on which basic policy decisions are taken and on which legislation is adopted are in the public domain; there is also a need for clarification of the distinction between, on the one hand, the need for confidentiality as regards, for instance, planned or on-going operations by security services and, on the other hand, the requirements of accountability and a posteriori control,

| (b) | ensuring that documents are not classified as confidential as a matter of routine, simply because they refer to a issue which is or might be of concern from a security point of view, and |
| --- | --- |

(b)

ensuring that documents are not classified as confidential as a matter of routine, simply because they refer to a issue which is or might be of concern from a security point of view, and

| (c) | ensuring adequate control by the European Parliament (democratic parliamentary scrutiny). |
| --- | --- |

(c)

ensuring adequate control by the European Parliament (democratic parliamentary scrutiny).

The Regulation should also clearly provide that bilateral agreements with third countries or international organisations may not prohibit the Council or the Commission from sharing confidential information with the European Parliament (in particular, where the relevant documents are not accessible to national parliaments, since they are EU documents).

Recommendation 4 (on the relationship between the EU and Member States as regards sharing information/documents)

Taking into account the principle outlined in Article 296 EC according to which ‘no Member State shall be obliged to supply information the disclosure of which it considers contrary to the essential interests of its security’, the Regulation should be amended in such a way as to:

| (a) | limit the right of Member States to limit access to their contributions/amendments in legislative/regulatory procedures; |
| --- | --- |

(a)

limit the right of Member States to limit access to their contributions/amendments in legislative/regulatory procedures;

| (b) | give full access to information submitted to the Commission when dealing with the implementation of EC or EU legislation until such time as any proceedings before a court have begun. |
| --- | --- |

(b)

give full access to information submitted to the Commission when dealing with the implementation of EC or EU legislation until such time as any proceedings before a court have begun.

Recommendation 5 (on the practicalities of ensuring citizens' access to documents)

Taking into account the experience of the first four-year period of the Regulation's being in force, the Commission should amend the Regulation by making a coherent proposal for:

| (a) | ensuring a single point of access in a clear and structured way to all preparatory documents dealing with a legislative or regulatory procedure (see Recommendation 2); |
| --- | --- |

(a)

ensuring a single point of access in a clear and structured way to all preparatory documents dealing with a legislative or regulatory procedure (see Recommendation 2);

| (b) | reorganising the institutions' registers by adding a common interface so that the citizen/user is able to find the same functionalities in the three registers; |
| --- | --- |

(b)

reorganising the institutions' registers by adding a common interface so that the citizen/user is able to find the same functionalities in the three registers;

| (c) | defining common rules for archiving documents, avoiding duplication and ensuring the authenticity of the various versions; |
| --- | --- |

(c)

defining common rules for archiving documents, avoiding duplication and ensuring the authenticity of the various versions;

| (d) | presenting in a clear and comprehensible way the work-flow of the Institutions and, where relevant, the point of access to the documents. |

Whereas the following new significant factors have arisen since the Parliament's last resolution on the BEPGs was adopted in May 2005: difficulties concerning the ratification of Constitutional Treaty; the adoption by the European Council of the EU's 2007-2013 Financial Perspective without the agreement of the Parliament; the first two interest rate rises by the ECB in over 5 years; the reform of the Stability and Growth Pact with 12 Member States having budget deficits of over 3%; the adoption of the Member States' NRPs; a raised awareness of the world-wide energy shock and related geopolitical tensions; the negotiations concerning Estonia, Lithuania and Slovenia's applications to join the euro zone in 2007; and the need to boost the priorities of the Doha WTO round following the slowdown of negotiations in Hong Kong;

| D. | Whereas the relative decline of the European economy can be linked to: an inappropriate regulatory framework combined with a lack of structural reform, which renders our economy less flexible than those of our main competitors, stagnant domestic demand, a lack of business dynamism and weak labour markets as a result of slow demographic growth, low employment rates, and poor productivity growth; whereas poor growth is caused by lack of investment, insufficient innovation and a misalignment of labour supply and demand on account of the incapacity of our poorly financed educational and training systems to adapt our workers to an ever-shifting world; |
