OPINJONI TAL-KUMMISSJONI

tal-4 ta’ Ġunju 2018

dwar il-pjan għar-rimi tal-iskart radjuattiv li joriġina mill-impjant tal-enerġija nukleari Wylfa Newydd (żewġ reatturi UK-ABWR) f’Wales, fir-Renju Unit

(It-test bl-Ingliż biss huwa awtentiku)

(2018/C 193/01)

Il-valutazzjoni ta’ hawn taħt qed titwettaq skont id-dispożizzjonijiet tat-Trattat Euratom, mingħajr preġudizzju għal kwalunkwe valutazzjoni addizzjonali li trid titwettaq skont it-Trattat dwar il-Funzjonament tal-Unjoni Ewropea u skont l-obbligi li joħorġu minnu u mil-leġiżlazzjoni sekondarja (1).

Fl-20 ta’ Ottubru 2017, skont l-Artikolu 37 tat-Trattat Euratom, il-Kummissjoni Ewropea rċeviet mingħand il-Gvern tar-Renju Unit, Dejta Ġenerali dwar il-pjan għar-rimi tal-iskart radjuattiv (2) li joriġina mill-impjant tal-enerġija nukleari Wylfa Newydd (żewġ reatturi UK-ABWR ta’ 1 350 MWe).

Abbażi ta’ din id-dejta u tat-tagħrif addizzjonali mitlub mill-Kummissjoni fit-13 ta’ Diċembru 2017 u mogħti mill-awtoritajiet tar-Renju Unit fit-22 ta’ Jannar 2018, u tat-tagħrif komplementari pprovdut minn rappreżentanti tal-Gvern tar-Renju Unit fil-laqgħa tal-Grupp ta’ Esperti fit-30 u fil-31 ta’ Jannar 2018 u tat-tagħrif addizzjonali pprovdut fl-14 ta’ Frar 2018, il-Kummissjoni fasslet l-opinjoni li ġejja.

| 1. | Id-distanza bejn is-sit u l-eqreb fruntiera ma’ Stat Membru ieħor, f’dan il-każ l-Irlanda, hija ta’ 118 km. |

| 3. | Skart radjuattiv solidu sekondarju b’attività baxxa u b’attività baxxa ħafna se jiġi ttrattat u kkundizzjonat fuq is-sit qabel ma jiġi ttrasferit għal faċilitajiet ta’ rimi liċenzjati fir-Renju Unit. It-trattament minn impjant ta’ inċinerazzjoni jew ta’ tidwib jista’ jiġi esternalizzat lejn faċilitajiet liċenzjati oħra barra mir-Renju Unit.
  Elementi ta’ fjuwil użat u skart solidu kkundizzjonat ta’ livell bejn intermedju u għoli se jinħażnu temporanjament fuq is-sit, bi stennija għad-disponibbiltà fil-futur ta’ repożitorju ġeoloġiku fond. M’hemmx ħsieb ta’ pproċessar mill-ġdid ta’ fjuwil użat. |

(2018/C 193/04)

IL-KUNSILL TAL-UNJONI EWROPEA,

L-elementi ewlenin ta’ dispożizzjoni aġġornata jinkludu l-istandards globali dwar it-trasparenza u l-iskambju ta’ informazzjoni, it-tassazzjoni ġusta u l-istandards kontra l-BEPS.

ANNESS

STATUTES FOR THE ALLIANCE FOR PEACE AND FREEDOM

(A NON-PROFIT ASSOCIATION under Belgian Law)

I.   GENERAL PRINCIPLES

Article 1

The Association, a European political party, is to be known as the ‘Alliance for Peace and Freedom’ (APF), hereinafter referred to as ‘the APF’ or ‘the Association’. This name shall always be preceded or followed by, or treated as if followed by, the words ‘non-profit–organisation under Belgian Law’. The Association is governed by the provisions of the laws of the EU on European political parties and the laws in Belgium on non-profit associations.

Article 2

The seat of the association is established in Belgium, 22 square de Meeus, 1050 Brussels. It may, by decision of the Executive, move its seat to any other address in Belgium.

The logo of the association consists of the three letters ‘APF’ in red, together with an image of a lady (‘Europe’) riding a bull:

[This logo can be altered by the Executive]

Article 3

The Association pursues political objectives, as laid down in this political programme:

We stand for a Europe of sovereign nations in which the independent states work together on a confederated basis to address the great challenges of our time and to protect, celebrate and promote our common Christian values and European cultural heritage.

We seek to address the democratic deficit within the existing structures of the EU by providing an effective voice for the large numbers of citizens, particularly young people, at present alienated from the democratic process. We stand for a revival of popular involvement in decision-making and for the elimination of corruption and the influence of money and the corporate media from our political institutions.

We aim to help families, law-abiding citizens, young people and unemployed often treated as second class citizens with the voices and organisational lead they need to assert their rights. Staunch supporters of the fundamental human right to a peaceful life with a decent standard of living in one’s own homeland, we are opposed to mass immigration which often results in discrimination and inequality – afflicting both immigrants and indigenous citizens — within the host nations. We are committed to providing the leadership and education required by the Youth of Europe to resist the destruction of our traditional values and consequently of peoples and cultures.

We cherish the rich diversity which forms a tapestry of human belonging both within Europe and beyond and which is under threat from the homogenising tendencies of a world shrunk by technology and globalism. We therefore seek a constructive path between the twin evils of negative racism and rootless consumerism, and to develop ways to protect and celebrate the diversity which provides the foundation stone of human identity.

Recognising that our diverse nations are each an extended family, we stand for the right and primary duty of each national government to act as a father to its nation and in particular to defend the people and their common wealth and heritage from the injustices and exploitation caused by the ‘logic’ of the market and the corruption of politicians and elites.

We stand in particular for Peace and to expose and oppose the attempts to jeopardize peace and create unnecessary hostility towards the eastern half of European civilisation. While we recognise that there are a number of unresolved historical disputes between various European nations, we are determined that these should be resolved through negotiation and compromise, rather than being exploited by external forces at the risk of increasing tensions and even war.

In the ethical sphere, which stands above and sets the boundaries of our politics and policies, we seek to instill in to our peoples and our youth a respect for life from beginning to end and a new spirit of honesty, self-sacrifice and an ethos of service.

The APF observes: respect for human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, the rule of law and respect for human rights, including the rights of persons belonging to minorities.

The APF does not pursue profit goals.

The APF is committed to providing equal opportunity for individuals of both sexes within its organisation on the grounds of merit and rejects all forms of discrimination, particularly discrimination based on gender.

Article 15

Accounts

The Association fiscal year runs from 1 January to 31 December.

At the end of each fiscal year, the Treasurer closes the accounts of the preceding financial year and begins to operate the budget for the next financial year, in accordance with the applicable legal provisions.

The Treasurer shall prepare the accounts in collaboration with the accountant appointed by the Executive.

The Treasurer shall be the principle officer responsible for liason with any grant-making bodies or other institutions providing funding for the Association, including member parties or individuals making own contributions.

The Association being a not-for-profit organisation any surplus must be carried over and must not under any circumstances be paid to the members in the form of dividends or any other form of payment or benefit.

The verification of the annual accounts is done by the Cash Auditors. They shall submit an annual audit report to the Congress.

Article 16

Dissolution

The Association is not dissolved following the death, incapacity, removal or resignation of a member, provided that the number of members remaining is not less than three.

The Association may be dissolved voluntarily on the recommendation of Congress to the Executive, passed by a two-thirds majority of the members eligible to vote who are present. The final decision on dissolution must be approved by a two-thirds majority of all voting members of the Executive present at a properly convened Executive meeting held within 28 days, but not less than 7 days, of such a Congress recommendation being made.

In case of recommending voluntary dissolution, the Congress shall appoint at the same time the liquidator(s).

In the case of dissolution, the Executive shall decide on the allocation of such assets as remain after all creditors have been satisfied and liabilities met. Such allocation must serve disinterested and non-profit purposes.

INTERNAL RULES

Article 17

Internal rules shall be decided by the Executive, which will set and decide upon organisational and financial procedures not specifically laid down within these statutes or the procedures of the European and Belgian legislation.

Proposed amendments to such rules of procedure may be submitted by any of those eligible to vote in Executive meetings in writing to the General Secretary seven days before the next Executive meeting.

Article 18

The President represents the association legally. The Treasurer represents the association financially. The General Secretary represents the association administratively. They have the power to represent the association in every Member State of the European Union, and in the rest of the world.

Article 19

The Association will respect all laws concerning transparency, in particular in relation to bookkeeping, accounts and donations, privacy and the protection of personal data. The Executive will receive all requests concerning these issues, study them and decide the appropriate reaction. The Association has members who have been, and are at present, the victim of hate campaigns, intimidation, vandalism, violence, and even terrorist attacks. The Association will therefore carefully balance the value of transparency with the value of privacy, safety and security of its Members, and the Executive has the most complete competence to defend the interests of the Association and its Members.
