(cid:1) Contribution to the upkeep of economic activities in less favoured areas, since horse-farming is
possible also on marginal sites: the continuation of agricultural activities in such areas is an important
objective of the Community’s rural development policy;

(cid:1) Preservation of genetic diversity: the rearing of animals (including horses) of local breeds indigenous to

the area and in danger of being lost for farming is part of the agri-environment measures.

The Honourable Member may see from these examples that the instruments and means already exist to
foster the economic situation of horse breeders in the framework of rural development. In the spirit of
subsidiarity it is up to the Member States to include the relevant measures in their programmes.

As to substantial slaughter grants, the Commission envisages no Common Market Organisation for horses
that might include such grants.

WRITTEN QUESTION E-0790/02

by Stavros Xarchakos (PPE-DE) and Ioannis Marínos (PPE-DE) to the Council

Subject: Banning of a film in Turkey

(22 March 2002)

The Associated Press reports from Ankara that the Turkish authorities have banned the screening of a
Turkish film entitled ‘Big Man, Small Love’ because it contains dialogue in Kurdish. The film was in fact
partly funded by the Turkish Ministry for Culture, which issued the order not to show the film in cinemas
because it considered that there was a problem with the inclusion of dialogue in Kurdish, despite the fact
that Turkish subtitles were shown.

Is such a measure consistent with Turkey’s conforming to standards of conduct befitting a European state?
What action has the Council
freedom and gross
taken in the past when violations of
infringements of democratic freedoms in Turkey came to light? In how many cases did Turkey rectify the
situation and which cases were those?
