Article 18(1)(d) provides that for a transitional period
expiring on 31 July 2002 the details of the density of the
grape must may be replaced by details of the density
expressed by the alcoholic strength in degrees Oechsle.

That unit is traditionally used by wine producers and
operators in the sector in some Member States for the
purpose of monitoring vinification processes. It replaces
details of the density of the grape must in the documents
accompanying carriage beginning and ending on the
territory of those Member States.

In view of the technical problems encountered by small-
scale producers in adjusting to a new unit of measure-
ment the derogation should be extended by allowing the
Member States concerned to express must density in
degrees Oechsle in accompanying documents concerning
the carriage of grape must beginning and ending on their
territory without passing through the territory of another
Member State or of a third country.

COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1785/2002

of 7 October 2002

determining the world market price for unginned cotton

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Protocol 4 on cotton, annexed to the Act of
Accession of Greece, as last amended by Council Regulation
(EC) No 1050/2001 (1),

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001 of 22
May 2001 on production aid for cotton (2), and in particular
Article 4 thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

In accordance with Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No
1051/2001, a world market price for unginned cotton is
to be determined periodically from the price for ginned
cotton recorded on the world market and by reference to
the historical relationship between the price recorded for
ginned cotton and that calculated for unginned cotton.
That historical
relationship has been established in
Article 2(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1591/
2001 of 2 August 2001 (3), as amended by Regulation
(EC) No 1486/2002 (4). Where the world market price
cannot be determined in this way, it is to be based on
the most recent price determined.

(2)

In accordance with Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No
1051/2001, the world market price for unginned cotton
is to be determined in respect of a product of specific
characteristics and by reference to the most favourable

offers and quotations on the world market among those
considered representative of the real market trend. To
that end, an average is to be calculated of offers and
quotations
European
recorded on one or more
exchanges for a product delivered cif to a port in the
Community and coming from the various supplier coun-
tries considered the most representative in terms of inter-
national trade. However, there is provision for adjusting
the criteria for determining the world market price for
ginned cotton to reflect differences justified by the
quality of the product delivered and the offers and quota-
tions concerned. Those adjustments are specified in
Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001.

(3)

The application of the above criteria gives the world
market price for unginned cotton determined herein-
after,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The world price for unginned cotton as referred to in Article 4
of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001 is hereby determined as
equalling EUR 22,374/100 kg.

This Regulation shall enter into force on 8 October 2002.

Article 2

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Amended proposal for a Decision of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the production and development of Community statistics on science and technology (presented by the Commission pursuant to Article 250 (2) of the EC Treaty)

Amended proposal for a Decision of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the
production and development of Community statistics on science and technology (1)

(2003/C 45 E/03)

COM(2002) 554 final — 2001/0197(COD)

(Submitted by the Commission pursuant to Article 250(2) of the EC Treaty on 7 October 2002)

1. Background

Reliable and relevant statistical
indicators are needed for formulating and evaluating S&T policies in
increasingly knowledge-based economies. The existing indicators are useful, but limited when it comes
to measuring the production of S&T activities, the dissemination of knowledge and, more generally, the
results of innovation systems. It is therefore necessary to devise a new generation of variables that will
make it possible to keep track of these aspects.

On 27 August 2001, therefore, the Commission submitted a ‘proposal for a Decision of the European
Parliament and of the Council concerning the production and development of Community statistics on
science and technology’ — COM(2001) 490 final — 2001/0197(COD).

The European Parliament issued its opinion on 2 July 2002 (Doc. P5-TAPROV (2002)0338)) and proposed
four amendments. The Commission accepts three of these.

2. Amendments

2.1. The Commission accepts the first amendment, which stresses the importance of taking account of the

regional dimension, in accordance with the NUTS classification, if possible.

2.2. The Commission accepts the second amendment, which underlines the importance of cooperation

with the OCDE and other international organisations.

2.3. The Commission accepts the fourth amendment, which calls for more frequent reports.

2.4. The Commission cannot, however, accept the third amendment as it stands. This calls for closer
cooperation and increased consultation with the Helsinki group, for legal reasons. The Commission
nevertheless acknowledges and stresses the importance of the statistical work of that group and
undertakes to continue its fruitful cooperation with it. The Commission will also reaffirm this
commitment by having a Commission declaration included in the Council minutes when the
Decision is adopted.

3. Conclusion

Under Article 250(2) of the EC Treaty, the Commission amends its proposal as described.

WRITTEN QUESTION E-2802/02

by Miquel Mayol i Raynal (Verts/ALE) to the Commission

(7 October 2002)

Subject: Imprisonment of Leyla Zana and Turkey’s accession to the EU

According to Amnesty International, Mrs Leyla Zana is currently in a Turkish prison for having dared to
speak in Kurdish at her inauguration as a member of the Turkish parliament.

Has the Commission been informed of this situation?

Should these reports prove accurate, does it believe that a State practising repression of this kind can
accede to the European Union?

Answer given by Mr Verheugen on behalf of the Commission

(15 November 2002)

The Commission is fully informed of the case of Ms Leyla Zana. This case was subject to a ruling of the
European Court of Human Rights (1) as well as to an interim resolution of the Committee of Ministers of
the Council of Europe (2). The interim resolution urged the Turkish authorities to respond to the
Committee’s repeated demands that the situation of former Member of Parliament Leyla Zana be remedied.

As a candidate country for membership in the European Union, Turkey should strive to fulfil the
Copenhagen political criteria. The Accession Partnership between the Union and Turkey requires a short-
term priority that Turkey ‘address the situation of those people in prison for expressing non-violent
opinion’.

The Commission raised this issue in the committee on foreign affairs, human rights, common security and
defence policy of the European Parliament in Brussels on 4 November 2002.

This case is raised in the Commission’s Regular Report of 9 October 2002, which states that the situation
of persons imprisoned for having expressed non-violent opinions has not been adequately addressed.

The Commission will continue to monitor the situation closely and to raise it with the Turkish authorities.

WRITTEN QUESTION E-2803/02

by Bart Staes (Verts/ALE) to the Commission

(7 October 2002)

Subject: Language teaching at the European Schools in Belgium

According to some reports, not all the European Schools in Belgium have Dutch-language sections.
Apparently, the primary sections at the European Schools only offer French, German and English as
second languages. It is only at secondary level that pupils can opt to learn Dutch as a third language. Yet
many Europeans living in Belgium send their children to Dutch-speaking nursery schools.
