WRITTEN QUESTION No. 920/97 by Peter SKINNER to the Commission. Noise pollution  


Official Journal C 373 , 09/12/1997 P. 0039 





WRITTEN QUESTION E-0920/97 by Peter Skinner (PSE) to the Commission (12 March 1997)Subject: Noise pollutionThe noise pollution from motor sports vehicles is not covered by the Council directive on the permissible sound level. However, this specific problem affects the health interests of the workforce and local residents in certain areas of the UK. Does the Commission intend to do something about noise pollution from motor sports vehicles?Answer given by Mr Bangemann on behalf of the Commission (5 May 1997)Directive 70/157/EEC on the permissible sound level and exhaust systems of motor vehicles ((OJ L 42, 23.2.1970. )) is intended to facilitate the proper functioning of the internal market in motor vehicles while ensuring a high level of protection against noise nuisances caused by road traffic. That directive applies to vehicles receiving a registration certificate for use on public roads. It does not apply to vehicles designed for sports competitions which, conversely, obey technical rules drawn up at national level or by sporting federations.It is the local authorities who authorize such sporting competitions and who are responsible for taking any additional action, such as the installation of anti-noise panels, that is likely to attenuate the causes of annoyance to those nearby.

Official Journal C 319 , 18/10/1997 P. 0187 





WRITTEN QUESTION E-0889/97 by Graham Watson (ELDR) to the Commission (12 March 1997)Subject: Human rights violations in BahrainWhat action is the Commission considering in regard to the multiple human rights violations by the Government of Bahrain, especially within the Bahraini State Security Court, chronicled by several international human rights organizations, and in particular concerning the case of Shaikh al-Jamri, the informal head of the Bahrain Islamic Freedom Movement, who has been jailed without charge for over a year?Answer given by Marín on behalf of the Commission (14 April 1997)The Commission shares the concerns of the Honourable Member over the reported human rights violations in Bahrain.The Commission would also like to point out that the situation in Bahrain has been aggravated by a number of serious terrorist attacks in which several people have lost their lives. The Commission, while recalling its commitment to the full respect of fundamental freedoms, condemns all forms of terrorist violence.The Commission has repeatedly stated its full commitment to the respect of human rights and fundamental freedoms which are at the heart of the Community's external policies. The Commission encourages all countries, including Bahrain, to promote democracy and to become parties to and fully apply international instruments in relation to human rights.The Commission attaches particular importance to the promotion of human rights in the Gulf cooperation council (GCC) countries. In this respect, and on the occasion of the last Community-GCC ministerial meeting held in Doha, Qatar, on 17 February 1997, both sides subscribed in the joint communiqué to the principle that all human rights are universal, indivisible and interdependent.

WRITTEN QUESTION No. 908/97 by Kirsten JENSEN to the Commission. Marketing of breast-milk substitutes  


Official Journal C 319 , 18/10/1997 P. 0193 





WRITTEN QUESTION E-0908/97 by Kirsten Jensen (PSE) to the Commission (12 March 1997)Subject: Marketing of breast-milk substitutes1981 saw the adoption of the WHO code of marketing of breast-milk substitutes in a number of developing countries.By way of follow-up, the Council adopted on 18 June 1992 a resolution on the marketing practices for breast-milk substitutes in third countries by Community-based manufacturers.The aim of these measures is to support and safeguard breast-feeding and the WHO code contains an explicit ban on various forms of marketing of breast-milk substitutes.Surveys by Britain's Institute of Child Health at the University of London and UNICEF are reported to show that five of the major manufacturers of breast-milk substitutes have marketed their products in breach both of the WHO code and the EU resolution. The five manufacturers are: Milco (Denmark), Nutritia (Netherlands), Nestlé and Gerber (Switzerland) and Wyeth (USA).There does not appear to exist any specific legal basis for taking action against such practices. What steps does the Commission intend to take, in the light of the Council resolution of 18 June 1992, to influence the marketing practices of the EU-based manufacturers?Answer given by Mr Bangemann on behalf of the Commission (25 April 1997)The Council Resolution of 18 June 1992 on the marketing of breast-milk substitutes in third countries by Community based manufacturers recognised that the application of the international code on the marketing of breast-milk substitutes would ensure that marketing practices should not discourage mothers from breastfeeding.It recognised also that the Community cannot legislate for third countries and therefore that it was for those countries to take the necessary measures to apply the international code in their territory as appropriate.In respect of this principle the Community designated the Commission and its delegations to serve as contact points and receive any complaints or criticisms from the authorities of third countries with respect to the marketing practices of Community based manufacturers.The Commission and its delegations have received no such complaint or criticism from the authorities of a third country which would induce any action in conformity with the Council resolution.

WRITTEN QUESTION E-0882/97 by Agnes Schierhuber (PPE) to the Commission (12 March 1997)Subject: Amount of Community funding allocated in 1996 to Austria and its individual federal statesSince the referendum on Austria's accession to the European Union in 1994, those critical of Austria's EU membership have greatly increased in number.One of the chief subjects of criticism is the contribution Austria pays to the EU. Furthermore, it is often argued that Austria is not exploiting to the full the subsidies available within the EU.This prompts the following questions:1. What was the total amount of payments made by the EU from all available Community sources to Austria in 1996?2. What payments were made by the EU in 1996 to the individual federal states of Austria?Answer given by Mr Santer on behalf of the Commission (28 April 1997)The Commission is collecting the information it needs to answer the question. It will communicate its findings as soon as possible.
