Opinion of the Economic and Social Committee on the 'Proposal for a Council Regulation (EC) amending Regulation (EEC) No 3760/92 establishing a Community system for fisheries and aquaculture'  


Official Journal C 089 , 19/03/1997 P. 0023 





Opinion of the Economic and Social Committee on the 'Proposal for a Council Regulation (EC) amending Regulation (EEC) No 3760/92 establishing a Community system for fisheries and aquaculture` () (97/C 89/10) On 8 October 1996 the Council decided to consult the Economic and Social Committee, under Articles 43 and 198 of the Treaty establishing the European Community, on the above-mentioned proposal.The Section for Agriculture and Fisheries, which was responsible for preparing the Committee's work on the subject, adopted its opinion on 9 January 1997. The rapporteur was Mrs Santiago.At its 342nd Plenary Session (meeting of 29 January 1997), the Economic and Social Committee adopted the following opinion by 92 votes to three, with five abstentions.1. IntroductionThe proposal seeks to amend Regulation 3760/92 establishing a Community system for fisheries and aquaculture.2. General comments2.1. The Committee approves the present proposal as it clarifies the system established by Regulation 3760/92.2.2. The Committee would here reiterate the comments made in earlier opinions concerning the institutionalization of a common fisheries policy.2.3. The Committee stresses how important a comprehensive, coherent fisheries policy is for the stability of activities in the sector and for ensuring that vessel owners and fishermen accept and adhere to its objectives.2.4. Although the Committee endorses the proposed measures, it thinks that they should have been included in the regulation approved in 1992. Article 8(4)(vi) is of particular sensitivity, as it stipulates that the Council is to establish specific conditions and opportunities for fishing by third country vessels in Community waters.2.5. When allocating fishing opportunities to third countries, the Council should take strict account of the state of resources in Community waters and the need to preserve the relative stability of fishing activities in each Member State.Brussels, 29 January 1997.The President of the Economic and Social CommitteeTom JENKINS() OJ No C 316, 25. 10. 1996, p. 13.

WRITTEN QUESTION No. 105/97 by Nikitas KAKLAMANIS to the Commission. EU funding for the ECMI (SUPPLEMENTARY ANSWER)  


Official Journal C 045 , 10/02/1998 P. 0004 





WRITTEN QUESTION E-0105/97 by Nikitas Kaklamanis (UPE) to the Commission (29 January 1997)Subject: EU funding for the ECMIGermany and Denmark jointly set up the European Centre for Minority Issues (ECMI) in Flensburg, Germany. The Centre monitors the situation of national minorities and other indigenous population groups throughout Europe.Dr Stefan Troebst was appointed director of the ECMI. He is an historian and reader in Eastern European history at the Free University of Berlin. Mr Troebst has on occasion (most recently in the 'Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung' of 31 July 1996) expressed views on the alleged existence of an Albanian minority in Greece, and he has emerged as an advocate of the annexation of Kosovo to Albania.His inflammatory remarks on 'Macedonian and Greek nationalism' in the same newspaper raise legitimate questions about the ECMI's entire activities.This is a very serious matter, and there are reports that a generous subsidy is going to paid to the ECMI under the EU's Interreg programme. The ECMI has already received money from the EU for its establishment.1. Is the Commission acquainted with the character and the activities of the director of the ECMI, Mr Troebst, who, during the inauguration of the ECMI (on 4 December 1996), went so far as to state that 'if the Pomaks in Greece or Bulgaria were to organize an ethnic movement and demand an independent State, that would be a difficult, but in certain cases, pressing matter'?2. Has the ECMI - a 'Centre' whose activities could turn out to be a time-bomb for the Balkans as well as other regions of the EU - received funding, or are there plans to fund it, under any EU programme?3. Is the ECMI directly or indirectly related to any of the EU institutions? If not, should it not be made clear to the Centre that, with its title and with the official involvement of two EU Member States, it is tarnishing the image of the EU, which badly needs a genuinely independent body to monitor minorities and not a 'Centre' with ambiguous and suspicious aims.Supplementary answer given by Mrs Wulf-Mathies on behalf of the Commission (18 July 1997)The Commission would refer the Honourable Member to its answer to his Written Question E-1416/97 ((OJ C 21, 22.1.1998, p. 53. )).
