prototype  reactors  for  power  stations  to  meet  the  needs  of
society: operational safety, environmental compatibility, econ-
omic viability.

The  proposed  strategy  to  achieve  this  long-term  objective
includes the development of an experimental reactor (The Next
Step) and then of a demonstration reactor (DEMO).

Progress  to  date  suggests  the  construction  of  the  Next  Step
during  the  next  decade  is  both  technically  feasible  and
strategically  necessary.  This  should  preferably  take  place
within  the  framework  of  the  ITER  (International  Thermonu-
clear  Experimental  Reactor)  international  cooperation  pro-
ject.

The  objective  of  this  action,  embracing  all  the  research
activities  undertaken  in  the  Member  States  and  Switzerland
aimed  at  harnessing  fusion,  is  the  maintenance  of  scientific
and  technological  expertise  in  the  domain  of  controlled
thermonuclear fusion, with a view, in the long term, to the
possible construction of safe, clean and economically com-
petitive prototype reactors for power stations operated by
utilities in an increasingly liberalised and privatised mar-
ket.

The  proposed  strategy  to  achieve  this  objective  involves  the
pursuit of a range of technological options in the national
associations,  including  spherical  tokamaks,  stellarators,
inertial  confinement  and  continued  work  on  theoretical
plasma physics.

Parliament. In addition, a User Community Panel of power
utility experts and managers will be established to ensure
the  relevance  of  fusion  research  to  power  utilities(cid:146)  needs.
This panel will report its findings every year to the Council
and the European Parliament.

Recital 6a (new)

(6a) Whereas the number of denominations together with
their  face  value  should  be  based  on  all  Member  States(cid:146)
experience  with  their  national  coinage  systems  and  their
most commonly used petty coins, and should take account
of  the  future  needs  of  an  economy  characterized  by  an
increasing  use  of  electronic  money;  whereas  the  new
coinage system should reflect the views of the blind and of
old people who have both insisted on the smallest possible
number of denominations forming a single series in which
value increases with diameter; whereas, because in future
large quantities of coins may become superfluous as the use
of electronic money increases, coins ought to be made of a
material  which  can  be  recycled  easily,  such  as  stainless
steel;

(Amendment 3)

Recital 8a (new)

(8a)  Whereas  the  denominations  0,01/0,10/1,00  are  the

C 14/73

Wednesday 17 December 1997

1.
Notes  with  satisfaction  that  it  has  been  increasingly  informed  and  consulted,  in  accordance  with
Article K.6 of the EU Treaty, but now calls for an undertaking by the Council to apply the provisions of
Article K.11 of the Treaty of Amsterdam, as the Luxembourg Presidency has undertaken to do;

2.
Appreciates, in particular, the fact that it was consulted about the priorities for cooperation in the
fields of justice and home affairs for the period between 1 January 1998 and the date of entry into force of
the Treaty of Amsterdam, which was not previously the case;

3.
Renews its call to the Council for an annual report making it possible to prepare the debate provided
for in Article K.6 of the EU Treaty (it received such a report only in respect of 1995), and repeats the
specific calls on the Council in 1996 to set out progress in:

› 

ratification of all conventions and the implementation of those and other binding instruments adopted
under Article K.3,

› 

implementation of the work programme,

›  application of Article K.6;

4.
Points out that, owing to the tightness of deadlines in particular, Parliament(cid:146)s right to be consulted,
which  is  enshrined  in  the  new  Treaty,  can  be  exercised  only  if  the  draft  Council  measures  on  which
Parliament is required to deliver an opinion are available in good time in all language versions;

Calls on the Council also to inform it about informal meetings and, where appropriate, to consult it in

5.
accordance with the second paragraph of Article K.6 of the EU Treaty;

6.
Deplores  the  fact  that  virtually  none  of  the  conventions  which  have  been  signed  by  the  Member
States under Article K.3 have yet been ratified by each of them, and sees this as confirming its criticisms in
previous  years  about  the  cumbersome  nature  and  complexity  of  conventions,  and  in  particular  their
ratification procedures;

Calls on the Member States to speed up the ratification of conventions under Article K.3 that they

7.
have signed up until now;

Notes that progress towards the forms of decision laid down in Article K.3, which was already noted

8.
in 1996, has continued;

9. Welcomes  the  fact  that,  despite  disputes  as  to  the  extent  to  which  joint  actions  are  binding,  the
Council has opted more for them, in preference to conventions, since they are a legal instrument which
enables rules to be transposed into national law more speedily;

10.
Deplores the fact that major proposals, drawn up secretly by working parties, are made known to
organizations before the European Parliament has been informed thereof, let alone consulted thereon, this
being the case with the (cid:145)draft Council resolution on measures to combat marriages of convenience(cid:146), this
being a subject, moreover, which has never appeared on the Council(cid:146)s programme;

11.
Calls on the Commission to make full use of its right of initiative regarding cooperation in the fields
of justice and home affairs and, above all, the priorities set by the Council, particularly during the period
preceding the entry into force of the Treaty of Amsterdam;

12.
Calls on the Commission to make use of all its current prerogatives and, to that end, to devote all the
requisite  human  resources  thereto,  bearing  in  mind,  in  particular,  the  appropriations  that  the  European
Parliament intends to allocate for the promotion of the policies referred to in this resolution;

13. Welcomes  the  Commission  proposal  for  a  Council  joint  action  on  the  temporary  protection  of
displaced persons; notes that it was consulted on this proposal within acceptable time-limits;

Regrets the fact, nonetheless, that there have not been Commission proposals on other important

14.
aspects of priorities concerning asylum and immigration;

15.
Calls on the Commission to take account, as it should, of security aspects in its proposal, pursuant
to Article 100c of the EC Treaty, for a list of countries whose nationals must have a visa on entering the
territory of the European Union, and to ensure, in particular, that the abolition of visa requirements does
not have the effect of facilitating trafficking in drugs and human beings in the European Union;

16. Welcomes the High Level Group(cid:146)s action plan to combat organized crime and also calls for the
implementation of its recommendations to be speeded up, it being understood that it must be consulted on
the proposals that are made;

C 14/74

EN

Official Journal of the European Communities

19. 1. 98

Wednesday 17 December 1997

17. Welcomes the fact that the Luxembourg Presidency has kept its promises regarding the undertaking
to  draw  up  an  instrument  establishing  a  network  of  liaison  judicial  officials  to  promote  judicial
cooperation; considers that this instrument constitutes a first step towards establishing a structure of points
of contact between the judicial authorities of the Member States, but that the common European legal and
judicial area that it so earnestly desires is still a long way off;

18.

Calls on the Council, in addition, to:

›  create the conditions enabling Europol to start work with effect from 1 July 1998, by speeding up the
process of ratification of the Europol Convention and by adopting forthwith the associated measures
which are still outstanding,

› 

take the measures needed for the start-up of Europol(cid:146)s activities, by making available to it the requisite
personnel and equipment,

›  monitor Europol(cid:146)s working methods as soon as it begins operations, so as to determine the operational
powers that may be conferred on it in the context of the development of its structure, and to report to
Parliament annually on this point;

›  consult it separately on all protocols relating to Europol, in particular the Protocol on privileges and

immunities, as it called for in its resolution of 14 March 1996 on Europol (1);

19.
Calls, further, on the Council to ensure, under the arrangements for the temporary protection of
displaced  persons,  an  appropriate  allocation  of  the  costs  associated  with  a  decision  to  admit  them
provisionally;

Calls on the Council to ensure that decisions on asylum applications in the European Union are

20.
taken within a maximum period of one year;

Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the Economic and

21.
Social Committee and the governments and parliaments of the Member States.

›  having  regard  to  Articles  36,  56,  77,  85(3),  90(2)  and  92  of  the  Treaty  establishing  the  European

Community,

›  having regard to the objectives of economic and social cohesion added to the Treaty by the Single
European  Act  (Title  XIX,  Articles  130b  et  seq.)  and  of  consumer  protection,  establishment  of
trans-European networks and environmental protection introduced by the Treaty on European Union
(Title XI, article 129a; Title XII Articles 129 b and c; Title XVI),

›  having regard to the report of the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs and Industrial Policy
and the opinions of the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs, the Committee on Research,
Technological  Development  and  Energy,  the  Committee  on  the  Environment,  Public  Health  and
Consumer  Protection,  the  Committee  on  Institutional  Affairs,  the  Committee  on  Culture,  Youth,
Education and the Media, the Committee on Legal Affairs and Citizens(cid:146) Rights, the Committee on
Regional Policy and the Committee on Transport and Tourism (A4-0357/97),

A.  whereas  services  of  general  economic  interest  (or  public  services),  which  are  economic  activities
considered  vital  for  citizens  and  society  as  a  whole,  are  founded  on  the  principles  of  continuity,
solidarity, and equal access and treatment for all users;

B.  whereas the qualification of a particular activity as being of general interest and the level of services
consequently guaranteed to citizens obviously depend on technological evolution, on conceptions of
society, and on the traditions and economic means of a country,

C.  whereas in our modern democratic societies, general interest in that sense commonly includes social
and  territorial  cohesion,  the  effective  enjoyment  of  fundamental  freedoms,  overall  economic
efficiency, concern for long-term needs and control of non-renewable or rare resources,

D.  whereas these considerations apply above all to the main network activities including distribution of
water,  electricity  and  gas,  railways,  local  public  transport,  broadcasting,  telecommunications  and
postal services,

E.  whereas  these  considerations  normally  give  rise  to  constraints  on  the  operators  and  regulators  of
services in these sectors, which are generally expressed by the principles of continuity, equality and/or
adaptation,

F.  whereas  the  operation  of  public  services  under  these  principles  normally  leads  to  missions  and
obligations  being  imposed  by  public  authorities  on  the  operators  and  often  to  special  rights  being
granted to them which are considered necessary for effectively carrying out their duties,

G.  whereas such a concept of services of general interest is shared, under various names, by all Member

States,

H.  whereas, in spite of this common conception, the way in which these services are organised varies
considerably from one country to another, in terms of public authorities concerned (national or local),
type of operators (including the administrative and special rights of these operators), and the method
of regulation by the authorities,

I.  whereas the notion and reality of public services is thus not linked with the organisation, control and

ownership of its operators and cannot in particular be confused with public undertaking,

J.  whereas  the  Union  is  competent  in  the  field  of  public  services,  either  (cid:145)negatively(cid:146)  on  the  basis  of
fundamental  rules  governing  the  single  market  (removal  of  special  rights  of  operators  if  they  are
obstacles  to  free  movement  of  people,  goods  and  services  or  to  Europe-wide  competition);
or (cid:145)positively(cid:146)  through  the  implementation  of  Treaty  obligations  to  protect  general  interest
(either globally as provided for in Article 90(2) or through its competence to pursue economic and
social cohesion, consumer protection, protection of the environment, trans-European networks),

K.  whereas, more specifically, the rulings handed down by the Court of Justice in the Corbeau case on
19 May 1993 and the Municipality of Almelo case on 27 April 1994 spell out the conditions under
which  given  exclusive  rights  granted  in  respect  of  a  service  of  general  interest  may  constitute  an
exception to the rules on competition,

C 14/76

EN

Official Journal of the European Communities

19. 1. 98

Wednesday 17 December 1997

L.  whereas  there  is  a  need  to  develop  a  recognizable  people(cid:146)s  Europe  as  a  complement  to  the  single

market and the economic integration process,

M.  whereas services of general economic interest form an essential component of economic and social
cohesion; whereas, in addition to their importance to those living in less-favoured regions or regions
of low population density, such services are a not inconsiderable asset in ensuring the continuity and
development of economic activity in such regions; whereas, consequently, they must continue to be
offered,  without  additional  charges  to  the  tax-payer,  at  levels  of  quality  and  price  essentially
equivalent to those in other, better favoured regions or regions of higher population density,

N.  whereas the principle of subsidiarity recommends leaving to Member States the primary responsi-
bility for defining the public services, determining the requirements imposed on operators in terms of
range,  level  and  quality  and  their  special  rights  and  the  legal  instruments  needed  for  doing  so,
choosing the operators, funding the service and adopting a method of regulation,

O.  whereas, however, the Union should have the responsibility to ensure that, in accordance with the
principle  of  subsidiarity,  the  Member  States  determine  for  each  sector  a  number  of  public  service
obligations which may include fixing the minimum level of services, wherever the market mechanism
fails to function throughout the territory of the Union,

P.  whereas such action, together with the creation of trans-European networks, could lead to the setting

up of a European framework for public services,

Q.  whereas such an achievement would give European integration a new legitimacy by bringing it closer

to the needs of the citizens,

1. Welcomes the new Article 7d included in the EC Treaty by the Treaty of Amsterdam as recognizing
the notion of services of general interest as one of the common values of Europe and as a principle of
Community law in its own right, while asserting that the Community and the Member States shall oversee
the operation of such services within their respective powers;

Further welcomes the adoption by the Amsterdam European Council of the Declaration to the Final
2.
Act which stipulates that the provisions of the new Article 7d shall be implemented with full respect for
the  jurisprudence  of  the  Court  of  Justice,  inter  alia  as  regards  the  principles  of  equality  of  treatment,
quality and continuity of the services in question;

3. Welcomes also the reference in the new Article 7d to Articles 86 and 87 of the EC Treaty and calls on
the Commission to ensure the application of Community competition law to services of general interest;

Acknowledges  the  value  of  the  Commission(cid:146)s  communication  on  services  of  general  interest  in
4.
Europe as expressing for the first time a full recognition of public services in their genuine definition, their
justifications, their principles and their European dimension, including proposals for a European policy on
the matter;

Points to the need, where services of general interest are concerned, for forms of cooperation to be
5.
established firstly among the Member States and secondly between the public and private sectors with a
view to promoting job-creating projects and developing research;

Calls on the Commission to define the scope and nature of services of general interest, together with
6.
the  principles  underlying  them,  and  to  specify  more  closely  both  the  level  of  services  necessary  for
accomplishing  EU  objectives  and  the  regulatory  framework  needed  to  ensure  success,  and  to  consider
subsequently drawing up an action plan, accompanied by a timetable, for translating Treaty objectives into
policy and implementing measures;

7.
Calls  on  the  Commission  to  take  duly  into  account,  in  drawing  up  its  future  proposals  and  in
implementing the internal market relating directly or indirectly to services of general economic interest,
the objectives of Article 130a on economic and social cohesion as specified in Article 130b of the Treaty;

19. 1. 98

Wednesday 17 December 1997

8.
Calls on the Commission to draw up a charter of principles for services of general economic interest,
containing their justification and principles (both traditional and new), the type of missions and rights to
be given to operators and a list of sectors where the notion should apply;

9.
Calls on the Commission to propose a package of measures to improve the effectiveness of these
services in a competitive environment, so that the public and economic operators are guaranteed quality
services;

10.
Calls on the Commission to publish (cid:145)Green(cid:146) and (cid:145)White(cid:146) Papers laying out a timetabled plan to
translate Treaty and charter aspirations into action, outlining in particular any necessary legislation; the
plan should specify in each of the sectors concerned the levels of service to be guaranteed to the citizens,
the special rights that might be necessary to carry out the service and any necessary regulatory apparatus to
be set up at Community level;

Instructs  its  competent  committees  to  develop  democratic  scrutiny  for  Commission  activity

11.
regarding services of general interest with a remit to comment on relevant legislation;

12.
Calls  on  the  Commission  to  consult  regularly  representatives  of  public  service  undertakings,
competitors and the respective workforces concerning questions relating to services of general interest;

Calls for the attribution of a special responsibility for public services, particularly for preparing

13.
legislation, to one of the Commissioners and one of the Commission(cid:146)s directorates- general;

14.
Calls on the Commission to provide for full coordination between its competent departments with a
view  to  ensuring  balanced  consideration  of  the  concerns  of  both  competition  policy  and  services  of
general interest;

Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the Economic and
