Official Journal C 076 , 11/03/1998 P. 0128 





WRITTEN QUESTION E-2592/97 by Hilde Hawlicek (PSE) to the Commission (29 July 1997)Subject: Youth employment in education programmes from the year 2000The Leonardo and Socrates education programmes expire in 1999.How will the Commission take account of employment issues - particularly the employment of young people - in its education policy, and how will this topic figure in the new education programmes as from the year 2000?Answer given by Mrs Cresson on behalf of the Commission (22 September 1997)The Commission has already started to give thought to the future of the education, training and youth programmes which expire in 1999. First of all, it has attempted to review the debates on the White Paper 'Teaching and learning: towards the learning society' ((COM(95) 590. )) in a recently adopted Communication ((COM(97) 256. )).It has also announced its intention of presenting a Communication, in the autumn, concerning guidelines on the future of Community action programmes for discussion by the Council and Parliament.Attention can already be drawn to the approaches adopted in connection with Agenda 2000. Giving priority to a policy of knowledge in respect of the Community's internal policies is a new and essential element. Education, training and youth policy * together with research and innovation * constitutes the cornerstone of this policy of knowledge. It is a question of a fundamental choice for Europe corresponding to a model of society.The development of an 'Erasmus apprenticeship scheme', the development of educational software, and the networking of schools are new areas to be worked. Generally speaking, encouraging creativity and the skills needed to integrate into active life in a changing world is the focal point of concerns relating to the follow-up to education, training, youth and research programmes.

WRITTEN QUESTION No. 2583/97 by John IVERSEN to the Commission. Food aid  


Official Journal C 117 , 16/04/1998 P. 0026 





WRITTEN QUESTION E-2583/97 by John Iversen (PSE) to the Commission (29 July 1997)Subject: Food aidHow far does the Commission intend to utilize part of the beef intervention stocks for food aid in the form of tinned food, and how does it justify a failure to respond to requests to this effect from aid organizations involved and countries in extreme need, while at the same time maintaining that there are no outlets for the beef intervention stocks?Calculations also reveal that tinned meat can be made available in a way that is central in budgetary terms, in contrast to the conventional intervention procedure for beef and veal.Answer given by Mr Fischler on behalf of the Commission (7 October 1997)Council Regulation (EC) No 1292/96 on food-aid policy and food-aid management and special operations in support of food security ((OJ L 166, 5.7.1996. )) states that food aid products must reflect as closely as possible the dietary habits of the recipient population. The choice of products is therefore determined by need and not by availability.The products supplied as Community food aid, for which the Commission is responsible, are normally those requested by the country in question or the organisation through which the aid is routed. Tinned beef is rarely asked for and over the last two years less than 400 tonnes has been supplied. The Commission was recently asked to supply tinned beef or pork for use in North Korea but the conclusion from assessments on the spot by both the World Food Programme (WFP) and the Commission was that these products were not the most appropriate to the primary needs of this famine-affected country. On 23 May 1997 the Commission announced significant emergency aid to the people of North Korea. Part of this is some 155 000 tonnes of food aid, to be delivered in close collaboration with the WFP, mainly in the form of cereal products, and part is a nutritional and public health programme. The total value of the aid is ECU 55.8 million.The Commission has no up-to-date calculations showing that provision of tinned beef is less costly than the conventional intervention procedure. In any case the supply of products as food aid for the sole reason that they are in surplus and in intervention storage runs counter to the thinking behind the abovementioned Regulation.

WRITTEN QUESTION No. 2587/97 by Hilde HAWLICEK to the Commission. Uniform access and entitlement to continuing training in Europe  


Official Journal C 102 , 03/04/1998 P. 0064 





WRITTEN QUESTION E-2587/97 by Hilde Hawlicek (PSE) to the Commission (29 July 1997)Subject: Uniform access and entitlement to continuing training in EuropeOn 30 April 1997, the Commission (DG XXII) published a report on access to continuing training in the Union (COM(97) 0180 final). Chapter III - Conclusions and Guidelines - of the report states that it is a Community objective to press ahead in developing access to continuing training while narrowing inequalities in worker access. The Commission envisages a legal instrument to achieve this.To what extent is the Commission planning to draw up a directive regulating access to continuing training throughout Europe, to ensure that all employees (in Europe) enjoy equal access to continuing training?Answer given by Mrs Cresson on behalf of the Commission (7 October 1997)The Commission's report on access to continuing training is in implementation of the Council Recommendation of 30 June 1993. Its main aim is to provide all the Community players with food for thought and to fuel the debate on continuing vocational training in Europe.In its conclusions, the Commission identifies a limited number of guidelines which it considers relevant for pursuing and advancing Community action in the field of continuing training.The first objective is to 'press ahead in developing access to continuing training while narrowing inequalities in worker access so as to promote a Union-wide skill access strategy'.These guidelines will be discussed with the Community bodies concerned. On the basis of the discussions, the Commission will then propose a series of measures for implementing the guidelines. The legal nature of this instrument will depend on the objectives set.In view of the importance of the social partners in the field of continuing training, the Commission wishes to hold extensive consultations with them on the follow-up to the report, before presenting a proposal, and has therefore invited them to take part in discussions.As these discussions have not yet begun, it is not yet possible to state what form the instrument will take, but we can say now that the opinion of the Advisory Committee on Vocational Training (ACVT) on the report on access to continuing training has shown that the employers' and trade union representatives would not welcome the adoption, in the near future, of a binding Community instrument on access to continuing training.Nonetheless, whatever the legal nature of the act adopted, the question of equal opportunities will be taken into account.
