Council Conclusions

of 2 December 2002

on obestiy

(2003/C 11/02)

THE COUNCIL

- EMPHASISES its great concern about the serious health, social and economic impact of the increasing prevalence of overweight and obesity in individuals, particularly children, and in the European Community,

- REFERS to scientific results showing that obesity is the major cause of a range of serious associated diseases, and indicating that 15 % of children and adolescents in Europe are suffering from obesity, and that this number will increase dramatically in many Member States unless appropriate action is taken,

- REAFFIRMS the Council Resolution of 3 December 1990 regarding the action programme on nutrition and health(1), the Conclusions of the Council and the Ministers for Health of the Member States meeting within the Council of 15 May 1992(2) on nutrition and health, and the Council Resolution on health and nutrition of 14 December 2000(3),

- REFERS to the focus, which the EU Conference on Obestiy in Copenhagen on 11 to 12 September 2002 put on the multiple problems caused by obesity, and the urgent request from leading international experts to act as quickly as possible on the basis of the existing documentation, simultaneously with the gathering of new knowledge,

- UNDERLINES the need, in preventing and responding to the problems resulting from obesity, to take a cross-sectoral approach, including, inter alia, the health, social, food educational, cultural and transport sectors.

INVITES THE MEMBER STATES to take account in their national public health policies of the need to address the issue of obesity.

INVITES THE COMMISSION TO:

1. reinforce its efforts to prevent and combat obesity and, in particular, its response to the invitations of the Council in its Resolution of 14 December 2000;

2. support the Member States in their efforts to prevent and manage obesity, taking into account the potential risk of eating disorders, particularly by developing innovative measures and approaches concerning nutrition and physical activity;

3. continue to strenghten the research on obesity;

4. ensure that prevention of obesity is taken into account in all relevant Community policies, and, in particular, in the framework of the programme of Community action in the field of public health (2003 to 2008).

It is essential that the project works in close cooperation with a host State government that is committed to limiting the ownership and use of small arms and light weapons in the society. At the same time, the project should be sufficiently autonomous from the government to be able to pursue the project's objectives as set in the Council Decision. The project should ideally have an integrated, multi-facetted where the impact of each programme component individually is strengthened by the implementation of the other components, thereby combining to form a powerful integrated package. Such a programme could include, inter alia, the following components (example from the EU-ASAC in Cambodia): — assistance to drafting and introduction of arms law, — weapons registration and safe storage, — weapons for development' schemes, where the local population are encouraged to hand in illegal weapons to the police in exchange for community development projects, — weapons destruction, — public awareness campaigns, — a country needs a legal framework that clearly regulates the possession and use of SALW in society. Once an arms law is in place, it is important that police are trained in understanding and applying the law and that the public is informed about the implications of the law. Project assistance is valuable in both drafting and introduction phases, — support to weapons registration and safe storage helps governments reduce uncertainty about the number, type, location and security of weapons they possess. Experience has shown that, once all weapons in a given military region have been registered, the military authorities can be convinced that they have more weapons than they need and that the surplus can be destroyed. The setting up of safe storage facilities is relatively inexpensive and at the same time particularly important in poor countries with large quantities of arms, — ‘weapons for development’ (WfD) projects are likely to be more successful if they include support to improve the performance of the local police. Villagers will not hand in their weapons if they feel that their personal safety is still in danger. The unit cost per one weapon handed in is relatively high, but WfD brings security value for the communities which, is difficult to measure in monetary terms, — destruction of illegally-held weapons that have been handed in as well as military and police surplus weapons in ‘flames of peace’ ceremonies may have high symbolic value and give the image of progress towards a more peaceful society. Smaller destruction ceremonies are particularly appropriate in areas where weapons for development projects are being implemented, strengthening confidence that the weapons handed in by the villagers are actually destroyed and not used against them, — illegal trade of SALW across borders hampers any efforts to tackle the problem of SALW in a given country. Enhancing border controls would be an area to consider in future EU support, — EU visibility in the field of SALW is increased by implementation of carefully own-designed EU projects and not by giving small contributions to projects implemented by other actors.

Notice for the attention of the persons, groups and entities on the list provided for in Article 2(3) of Council Regulation (EC) No 2580/2001 on specific restrictive measures directed against certain persons and entities with a view to combating terrorism

(2008/C 109/09)

The following information is brought to the attention of the Hofstadgroep listed in Council Decision 2007/868/EC.

The Council of the European Union has determined that the reasons for including the above group on the above-mentioned lists of persons, groups and entities subject to the restrictive measures provided for under Council Regulation (EC) 2580/2001 of 27 December 2001, on specific restrictive measures directed against certain persons and entities with a view to combating terrorism, are still valid. Consequently, the Council intends to maintain this group on the list.

The attention of the group concerned is drawn to the fact that since the adoption of Decision 2007/868/EC, the Council has been provided with new information relevant to this listing. Having considered this new information, the Council intends to maintain the group concerned on the above mentioned list. Therefore, the Council has amended the statement of reasons accordingly.

The group concerned may submit a request to obtain the Council's revised statement of reasons for including and maintaining it on the above-mentioned lists to the following address:

Council of the European Union (Attn: CP 931 designations) Rue de la Loi 175 B-1048 Brussels

The group concerned may submit at any time a request to the Council, together with any supporting documentation, that the decision to include and maintain it on the list should be reconsidered, to the address provided above. Such request will be considered when it is received. In this respect, the attention of the group is drawn to the regular review by the Council of the list according to Article 1(6) of Common Position 2001/931/CFSP. In order for the request to be considered at the next review, it should be submitted within one month from the date of publication of this notice.

Finally, the attention of the group concerned is drawn to the possibility of making an application to the competent authorities of the relevant Member State(s) as listed in the Annex to the Regulation in order to obtain an authorisation to use frozen funds for essential needs or specific payments in accordance with Article 5(2) of that Regulation. An updated list of competent authorities is available on the web at the following address:

While it is indeed true that the media industry has a crucial role in work to promote media literacy, it is important to underline the independence of the media and the fact that Member States have differing approaches in promoting the development of good practices and standards in the media industry, where self-regulation or co-regulation are two among several possible solutions. It is also important to take into account the many initiatives in the area of media literacy already being carried out by the media industry as well as by cultural institutions, non-governmental organisations and by the voluntary sector, and to further promote these initiatives.
