Official Journal C 319 , 18/10/1997 P. 0178 





WRITTEN QUESTION E-0849/97 by José Apolinário (PSE) to the Commission (10 March 1997)Subject: Distribution of ERDF Article 10 projects by type and by Member StateIn view of the fact that application of Article 10 of the ERDF depends to a large extent on the Commission's discretion and recognizing the fact that there is trans-national involvement in many of the projects financed under the procedure laid down in that article, could the Commission provide:1. a listing of the calls for applications which have already been published under the current financial perspective and information concerning the number of applications submitted and selected in the case of each Member State and the amount of co-funding provided by the ERDF;2. details of the budget allocated to Article 10 for the remainder of the current financial perspective and the current rate of implementation in terms of both payments and commitments?Answer given by Mrs Wulf-Mathies on behalf of the Commission (17 April 1997)A list of the calls for proposals already published under Article 10 of the ERDF Regulation ((OJ L 193, 31.7.1993, p. 34. )) is given below, indicating the amount of the ERDF contribution in each field.>TABLE>Regarding the number of applications submitted and selected, broken down by Member State, the Honourable Member should consult the answer given by the Commission to written question E -2147/96 from Mr Howitt ((OJ C 11, 13.1.1997. )) for details concerning innovative schemes.A total of 503 proposals were received for urban pilot projects and 142 for pilot projects in spatial planning. The geographical breakdown is given below.>TABLE>It should be noted that final selections among these projects have not yet been made and that the proposals in spatial planning have a transnational and multiregional dimension. The nationality of the network leader is given merely as an indication.Finally, it is worth pointing out that the budget for Article 10 projects in 1995-99 is ECU 395 million. Out of this envelope, ECU 65 million have already been committed to innovative schemes and ECU 80 million will soon be committed to urban and spatial planning projects. Because of the system of paying out advances on the total assistance, actual payments to date amount to about ECU 26 million only.

Answer

(28 October 1997)

The matter raised by the Honourable Member is for the authorities of the Member State concerned and not one on
which the Council itself has any locus to intervene in the way proposed.

Measures to be taken against illicit drug trafficking organizations active on the Balkan route are being studied in
detail within the Council(cid:146)s bodies on the basis of an EDU report.

WRITTEN QUESTION P-0952/97

by Peter Truscott (PSE) to the Council

(10 March 1997)

Subject: Restriction of freedom of movement by the Belgian authorities

Following  recent  rulings  against  the  Belgian  Government  by  the  European  Court  of  Justice  regarding  illegal
restrictions  on  the  freedom  of  movement  of  EU  citizens,  the  Belgian  authorities  now  appear  to  be  placing
unacceptable restrictions on the travel of third-country nationals.

Will the Council investigate and comment on reports that the Belgian Embassy in London is refusing to issue
visas to third-country tourists and business people using the UK as a base?

Could  the  Council  further  condemn  what  appears  to  be  the  increasing  intolerance  and  racism  of  the  Belgian
authorities responsible for issuing travel and work permits for EU citizens and third-country nationals?

Answer

(16 October 1997)

The Honourable Member is referred to the reply to his Oral Question No H-0355/97 of 14 May 1997.

WRITTEN QUESTION E-1009/97

by Cristiana Muscardini (NI) to the Council

(24 March 1997)

Subject: Conflict in Rwanda/Zaire

The full-scale war which had been feared in the region of the African Great Lakes has unfortunately become a
reality, with its harrowing trail of slaughters, racial hatred and tragic suffering for the helpless populations, old
people, women and children.

The European Union has been unable to prevent full-scale war from breaking out, and has thus once again shown
its incapacity to take a united stance on international political events.

Will the Council

1.  call on those Member States with the greatest influence in that part of Africa to use this influence to convene

a peace conference with a view to resolving the conflict?

2.  make  use  of  the  power  of  such  States  within  the  United  Nations  to  ensure  that  the  conference  takes  the

necessary steps to achieve a global political settlement in the region of the Great Lakes?

Official Journal C 319 , 18/10/1997 P. 0174 





WRITTEN QUESTION E-0830/97 by Karla Peijs (PPE) to the Commission (10 March 1997)Subject: Mutual recognition of administrative certificates in the area of VATIs a fiscal authority of one Member State, which has to ascertain whether a company established in another Member State is a taxable person and qualifies for a VAT refund within the meaning of the 8th VAT Directive, obliged to recognize a document issued by the fiscal authorities of that Member State, which certifies that the company is part of a fiscal unit and therefore a taxable person?Answer given by Mr Monti on behalf of the Commission (16 April 1997)Under the common VAT system currently in force, each Member State may treat as a single taxable person persons established within its territory who, while legally independent, are closely bound to one another by financial, economic and organizational links.In the Member States which exercise this option, all the rights and obligations laid down in VAT legislation attach to the fiscal unit, with the enterprises that make up the latter no longer being treated as individual taxable persons.These Member States must, therefore, assess the issuing of a certificate attesting to the status of taxable person as part of the VAT refund procedure under the Eighth VAT Directive from the viewpoint of the fiscal unit.A certificate attesting to the taxable-person status of a fiscal unit and also indicating that a particular enterprise is part of a fiscal unit allows the Member State of refund to make a refund. An indication on the certificate by the Member State of establishment as to the composition of the fiscal unit is to be regarded rather as additional information to be used as deemed appropriate by the Member State of refund.
