‘Considers — in view of the unpredictability of some restructuring events and the difficulty of foreseeing

welcomes in this connection the common position of the European Council; expresses the wish, more-
over, that businesses will also be able to endow this reserve;’

— having regard to the Treaty of Amsterdam, which enshrined, for the first time, the objective of estab-

lishing a European judicial area,

— having regard to the Presidency conclusions of the Tampere European Council of 15 and 16 October
1999, which established the principle of mutual recognition as the cornerstone of judicial cooperation,

— having regard to its position of 6 February 2002 on the draft Council framework decision on the Euro-

pean arrest warrant and the surrender procedures between Member States (1),

— having regard to Council Framework Decision 2002/584/JHA of 13 June 2002 on the European arrest

warrant and the surrender procedures between Member States (2),

— having regard to the Commission's report of 23 February 2005 based on Article 34 of Council Frame-

work Decision 2002/584/JHA (COM(2005)0063),

— having regard to the Commission's report of 24 January 2006 based on Article 34 of Council Frame-

work Decision 2002/584/JHA (COM(2006)0008),

— having regard to the judgments of the constitutional courts of Poland (27 April 2005), Germany
(18 July 2005) and Cyprus (7 November 2005) and the various procedures under way, notably that
before the Belgian Court of Arbitration,

— having regard to the parliamentary meeting held on 17 and 18 October 2005 on improving parliamen-
tary scrutiny of judicial and police cooperation in Europe, with the participation of 100 national parlia-
mentarians and members of its Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs,

— having regard to Rule 114(3) of its Rules of Procedure,

— having regard to the report of

the Committee on Civil Liberties,

Justice and Home Affairs

(A6-0049/2006),

A. having regard to the innovative and exemplary role of the European arrest warrant in the development
of judicial cooperation and the strengthening of mutual trust, as well as its direct impact on civil
liberties,

B. whereas the European arrest warrant remains one of the EU's key instruments for judicial cooperation

and the fight against terrorism and large-scale crime,

C. whereas the Commission's initial evaluation shows that the European arrest warrant has demonstrated
its effectiveness by comparison with the slow, cumbersome and out-of-date extradition procedure, while
also making it possible to reduce the risks of a defendant or sentenced person eluding justice for reasons
of ‘legal sovereignty’, as well as to fight organised crime and terrorism more effectively,

D. whereas one of the advances introduced by the European arrest warrant is the removal of interference

by the political authorities in the procedure, by contrast with the extradition procedure,

E. having regard to the wishes expressed by several Member States concerning retention of certain elements
of the traditional extradition system (controls to avoid double jeopardy, intervention of the political
authorities in the judicial procedure) or the introduction of additional grounds for refusal which would
be contrary to Framework Decision 2002/584/JHA, such as political reasons, national security or human
rights arguments,

F. having regard to the practical obstacles that have been encountered in the operation of the European
arrest warrant, including problems of translation, transmission or use of differing forms incompatible
with its criteria,

G. having regard to the difficulties of transposition encountered by several Member States (especially
Germany) and to the need to bring national constitutions into line with Framework Decision
2002/584/JHA in order to permit the surrender of nationals (in particular in Poland and Cyprus),

H. concerned that these problems may undermine mutual trust and lead to a chain reaction which could
threaten the implementation of the European arrest warrant by other Member States, as is demonstrated
by the fact that, following the decision by the German Constitutional Court to annul the legislation
transposing the Framework Decision, a number of Member States have indicated that they will have to
return to applying, on a transitional basis, the extradition instruments that existed before the European
arrest warrant, pending adoption of a new transposing law that is compatible with the German Basic
Law,

I. whereas the lack of mutual trust between courts is associated with the shortage of common minimum

standards in criminal procedures, which hampers effective judicial cooperation,

J. whereas the creation of the European area of freedom, security and justice based on mutual trust cannot
be conceived without a minimum degree of harmonisation of national laws, as Parliament stressed in its
recommendation of 22 February 2005 (1),

K. whereas the Commission's first evaluation (COM(2005)0063) concerned only 24 Member States and
was completed for Italy, the last Member State to transpose Framework Decision 2002/584/JHA, only
recently (COM(2006)0008),

L. whereas the transposition problems encountered by Member States are essentially of a similar nature, as
is evident from the debates which took place at the parliamentary meeting of 17 and 18 October 2005;
whereas in future fuller exchanges of information and closer cooperation between the national parlia-
ments and the European Parliament will be necessary with a view to ensuring the transposition in
correct conditions of Framework Decision 2002/584/JHA and of other texts still under consideration,

M. whereas the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe includes a number of improvements in police
and judicial cooperation in Europe; whereas, among those improvements, the abolition of the ‘pillars’
and the communitarisation of procedures are such as to enhance the EU's capacity for action as well as
the democratic and transparent nature of the decisions taken; whereas this part of the Treaty was not a
subject for debate or opposition during the recent ratification campaigns,

N. regretting the fact that the role of Parliament in the adoption of the European arrest warrant and in its
evaluation, and the Court of Justice's scrutiny of its enforcement, are limited by its status as a third-pillar
instrument based on Articles 31 and 34 of the EU Treaty (Title VI),

O. having regard to the need to apply the Treaties currently in force in full, and, accordingly, to give effect
to Article 42 of the EU Treaty, pursuant to which the Member States may decide to bring the European
arrest warrant under the first pillar, in order to ensure democratic scrutiny by the European Parliament
and judicial scrutiny by the European Court of Justice,

P. whereas the Convention establishing a Nordic arrest warrant was signed on 15 December 2005 by
Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Sweden and Norway; whereas, although it is based on the principles and
structure of the European arrest warrant, the Nordic arrest warrant integrates a number of advances on
it, with a more effective set of rules on surrender, thanks, notably, to the reduction in the number of
optional grounds for non-execution and to procedural deadlines that are shorter than those for the Euro-
pean arrest warrant; whereas the EU could usefully take inspiration from the Nordic arrest warrant to
improve the effectiveness of the European arrest warrant,

1. Addresses the following recommendations to the Council:

Transposition and implementation in practice

(a) adopt, as soon as possible, the proposal for a framework decision on certain procedural rights in crim-
inal proceedings throughout the European Union, taking account of Parliament's amendments in its
position of 12 April 2005 (1); this measure is essential in order to ensure the same standard of legal
protection for all European citizens, and its guarantees will facilitate the surrender by a Member State of
one of its nationals to another Member State;

(b) ensure that, in the transposition of Framework Decision 2002/584/JHA, Member States do not reinstate
systematic checks regarding double jeopardy for their nationals, as this would undermine both the effec-
tiveness of the European arrest warrant and erode mutual trust between Member States;

(c) ensure that no political authority may interfere in the operation of the European arrest warrant, such
in future, the central

interference having created problems in extradition procedures; recalls that,
authority should not go beyond its role of facilitator in the surrender of suspects or sentenced persons;

(d) ensure that the difficulties persisting in some Member States over the application ratione temporis of
Framework Decision 2002/584/JHA are resolved and that they do not affect its implementation by
those Member States that have thus far been applying it correctly;

(e) ensure that the Member States take, without delay, the appropriate measures so as to avoid any constitu-

tional or legal obstacles to the application of the European Arrest Warrant to their nationals,

(f)

submit an annual report to Parliament on the measures it has taken to encourage Member States to
ensure the proper transposition and effective implementation of the European arrest warrant, as recom-
mended in (b), (c), (d) and (e) above,

Evaluation

(g) ensure with Parliament, in the context of the powers of the two branches of the budgetary authority,
that the Commission, in its capacity as guardian of the Treaties, has the resources needed for the detailed
monitoring of the quality of transposition;

(h) undertake, with the Commission's support and in coordinated fashion, an objective, impartial and more
detailed evaluation of the problems encountered by legal professionals in the various Member States,
backing it up with a qualitative assessment arrived at via a breakdown of the European arrest warrants
by type of offence;

(i) avoid a proliferation of parallel research activities on the same subject, even if the Council is tempted to
carry out its own study, on the grounds that this is a third-pillar measure (Title VI of the Treaty on Euro-
pean Union);

(j)

inform and consult regularly the European Parliament and national parliaments on the progress achieved
in the implementation of the European arrest warrant, involving them in the evaluation process, in the
spirit of Article III-260 of the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe;

Fundamental rights

(k) ensure that the Member States, when transposing the Framework Decision, do not require the judicial
authority executing a European arrest warrant systematically to check whether the warrant complies
with fundamental rights, since this would entail the risk of discrimination, whereas the system is based
on the principle of mutual recognition and the issuing Member State carries out that check;

(1) OJ C 33 E, 9.2.2006, p. 159.

C 291 E/248

EN

Official Journal of the European Union

30.11.2006

Wednesday, 15 March 2006

(l) pay close attention to the issue of respect for human rights and individual freedoms in the implementa-
tion of the European arrest warrant, a task to which the proposed Agency for Fundamental Rights
should be asked to contribute;

Effectiveness and democracy

(m) ensure that effect is given promptly to Article 42 of the EU Treaty, thus bringing the European arrest
warrant under the first pillar, so as to make the measures taken in connection with the European area
of freedom, security and justice truly democratic and more effective;

Instructs its President to forward this recommendation to the Council and, for information, to the
Commission and the governments and parliaments of the Member States.

(2) Certain amendments are justified in light of practical
experience in order to facilitate budget implementation and the
realisation of the underlying policy objectives and to adjust
some procedural and documentary requirements so as to
make them more proportionate to the risks and cost involved.

expressly the principle of proportionality of administrative
action set forth in Article 5 of the EC Treaty, so as to make
it clear that it is proportionate to the risks and cost involved.

ensure sound financial management, and should enhance the
protection of the Communities' financial interests against fraud
and illegal activities, thus contributing to obtaining a reason-
able assurance of the legality and regularity of financial opera-
tions.

AMENDMENTS

Amendment 4

Recital 5 a (new)

(5a) Pursuant to point 1 of the Protocol on the application
of the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality, annexed
to the EC Treaty and appended to the Treaty of Amsterdam
of 2 October 1997, each institution, in exercising the powers
conferred on it, is required to comply with the principle of
proportionality, according to which any action by the Com-
munity must not go beyond what is necessary to achieve the
objectives of the Treaty.

Amendment 5

Recital 6

(6) On certain points, more efficiency and transparency is
needed with regard to the application of budgetary principles,
in order better to suit operational needs.

(6) Practical experience of applying the Financial Regulation
has shown that, when exercising their powers in individual
instances, financial actors make too little use of their discre-
tion. Yet exercising those powers means also that they may
use their discretion to decide independently,
in individual
instances, when a measure is proportionate within the
meaning of Article 5 of the EC Treaty and the Protocol on
the application of the principles of subsidiarity and propor-
tionality, annexed to the EC Treaty and appended to the
Treaty of Amsterdam of 2 October 1997.

Amendment 6

Recital 12

(12) At present, the Commission must be authorised by the
budgetary authority before accepting donations, such as gifts
or bequests, which involve a charge. To avoid unnecessary and
cumbersome procedures,
should be made
compulsory only in the case of significant charges.

compulsory where there are follow-up costs.

authorisations

Amendment 7

Recital 13

In relation to the principle of specification of the
(13)
budget,
the rules governing transfers of appropriations
should be simplified and clarified on certain points because
in practice they have proven cumbersome or unclear. The
intention was for Article 22 of the Financial Regulation to
apply to institutions other than the Commission since the
Commission has its own regime. That provision should there-
fore be amended accordingly.

TEXT PROPOSED
BY THE COMMISSION

Amendment 8

Recital 14

(14) As regards the ‘notification procedure’, the Commis-
sion and the other institutions notify their transfer proposals
to the budgetary authority, which may invoke the normal
procedure if it wishes to raise objections. In such cases, in
theory, the normal deadlines apply for the decision of the
budgetary authority on the transfer. However, the text does
not state when time for the purposes of the deadline is to be
deemed to start running, and that omission should be reme-
died.

deleted

Amendment 9

Recital 16

(16) For reasons of efficiency, the Commission should be
allowed to decide autonomously on transfers from the reserve
in cases where no basic act, within the meaning of Article 49
of the Financial Regulation, exists for the action concerned
at the time when the budget is established, but where the
basic act is adopted in the course of the year.

deleted

Amendment 10

Recital 17

(17) The rules on the Commission's administrative transfers
should be adapted to the new Activity-Based Budgeting
(ABB) structure. Thus, the ‘notification procedure’ should be
limited to transfers between articles, within the administra-
tive chapter of each title, which exceed 10 % of the appro-
priations of the year. On the other hand, transfers between
articles of different titles financing expenditure of identical
nature should be decided autonomously by the Commission.

deleted

Amendment 11

Recital 22 a (new)

(22a) The rules on the liability of authorising officers
should be more clearly defined in the interests of greater legal
certainty.

Amendment 12

Recital 27

(27) A period of limitation on the validity of claims should
be introduced. The Community, unlike many of its Member
States,
is not subject to a period of limitation under which
financial claims are extinguished after a certain period of time.
Nor is the Community restricted by a period of limitation in
the pursuit of its claims against third persons. The introduction
of such a period of limitation in a new Article 73b corre-
sponds to sound financial management.

of such a period of limitation in a new Article 73b corre-
sponds to sound financial management. However, perpetrators
of deliberate damage should not be able to invoke limitation
to the same extent as other debtors. The start of the limita-
tion period should therefore be confined to the point in time
when the entire scope of a claim has been established.

Amendment 13

Recital 27 a (new)

(27a) Award procedures should, where possible and appro-
priate, be carried out on an interinstitutional basis so as to
ease the administrative burden on smaller entities too.

Amendment 14

Recital 27 b (new)

(27b) Supply and service contract award procedures must
be streamlined and brought more into line with the needs of
tenderers. In this connection, attention should be paid in par-
ticular to ensuring that the principle of proportionality also
to documentation efforts. Framework contracts
extends
should be reflected in the Financial Regulation. Competition
should not be constrained as a result of unnecessarily long
contractual
ties in framework contracts, and small and
medium-sized undertakings should not be effectively debarred
right from the outset, because of their size, from contract
award procedures.

Amendment 15

Recital 29

(29) The Financial Regulation rules on the exclusion of
tenderers impose a stricter regime for the Community institu-
tions than that provided for in Directive 2004/18/EC. The
Financial Regulation makes no distinction between the most
serious grounds for exclusion and other grounds. Directive
2004/18/EC, on the other hand, does make such a distinction
and that distinction should be made available for the Com-
munity institutions. Articles 93 and 94 of the Financial
Regulation should provide for mandatory exclusion in the
most serious cases, while allowing the possibility for the
contracting authority, on the basis of a risk assessment, to
add other cases of exclusion. The same distinction should be
made in Article 114 of the Financial Regulation, as regards
grants. The rules on penalties, laid down in Article 96 of
that Regulation, should be adjusted accordingly.

(29) The Financial Regulation rules on the exclusion of
tenderers impose a stricter regime for the Community institu-
tions than that provided for in Directive 2004/18/EC. The
exclusion of tenderers should be subject to the principle of
proportionality. The exclusion period should be limited to no
more than 10 years so as to prevent disproportionate penal-
ties. Exclusions for more than five years should take place
only on the basis of an unappealable judgment.

Amendment 16

Recital 30 a (new)

(30a) The requirement to provide supporting documents
should be confined to what is necessary. The documentation
effort required should be based, inter alia, on the value of the
contract concerned.

Recital 30 b (new)

Wednesday, 15 March 2006

AMENDMENTS
BY PARLIAMENT

(30b) To preserve the institutions' reputation for adminis-
trative fairness and propriety, Community servants involved
in grant procedures should always notify their superiors
accordingly so as to rule out any conflict of interest.

Amendment 18

Recital 32 a (new)

(32a) Tenderers who have been passed over should have
effective legal safeguards, which the Member States are also
required to provide. To that end, independent vetting bodies
should be set up which can verify award procedures quickly,
without disproportionate effort, and provide effective legal
protection.

Amendment 19

Recital 32 b (new)

(32b) Protecting the Union's financial interests must not
demand too much of contractors. The provision of security by
contractors should therefore be restricted to instances where
this is justified and must not go beyond the purpose of
providing the security.

Amendment 20

Recital 34

(34) As regards grants, simplification of the rules is needed.
Requirements for checks and guarantees should be more
proportionate to the financial risks involved. Some essential
changes need to be made first in the Financial Regulation, so
that detailed provision can later be made in the implementing
rules. The scope of grants needs to be clarified in Article 108
of the Financial Regulation, in particular as regards financing
related to loan activities and share-holdings. The principle of
proportionality has to be added.

(34) As regards grants, simplification of the rules is needed.
The requirements which the administrative procedure imposes
on the parties involved in it must be proportionate at all
should be
times. Accordingly, unsuccessful applications
screened out at the earliest possible stage in the procedure, in
order to spare applicants needless efforts. The scope of grants
needs to be clarified in Article 108 of the Financial Regulation,
in particular as regards financing related to loan activities and
share-holdings. Particularly in the case of small amounts, it
must be possible to provide assistance on the basis of an
individual decision instead of a voluminous, complex assis-
tance agreement.

Amendment 21

Recital 36

(36) The rule that grants should be awarded on the basis of
calls for proposals has proved its worth. Experience has shown,
however, that in certain situations the nature of the action

certainty that requirements notified to applicants at the start
of the tendering process do not change during the procedure.
Experience has shown, however, that in certain situations the
nature of the action leaves no choice in the selection of benefi-
ciaries, and Article 110 of the Financial Regulation should
expressly recognise that such exceptional cases arise.

(37) The rule that the same action should not give rise to

more than one grant
adjusted because some basic acts do permit Community
funding to be combined and such cases may increase in
future in order to ensure the effectiveness of expenditure.
However, the opportunity should be taken to make clear in

(40) The obligation for grant beneficiaries
to provide
supporting documents and the penalties to which they are
subject should at all times be proportionate to the risk
involved. Furthermore, certain restrictions on the eligibility of
beneficiaries should be removed in order to allow for grants to
natural persons and certain types of entity which lack legal
personality.

Amendment 25

Recital 40 a (new)

(40a) To enhance information for applicants, a joint service
should be set up to deal with standardising applications for
similar types of funding, providing applicants with informa-
tion, and benchmarking for awarding funding.

Amendment 26

Recital 47

(47)
It is necessary to allow appropriations which have been
decommitted as a result of total or partial non-implementation
of the projects for which they were earmarked to be made
available again. However, that should be possible only under
strict conditions, and only in the area of research, since
research projects present a higher financial risk than those in
other policy areas.

(47) Because of the special importance of research support
for European Union competitiveness, it is necessary to allow
commitment appropriations which have not been used or have
been decommitted as a result of total or partial non-implemen-
tation of the projects for which they were earmarked to be
made available again.

following:

The authorising officer shall be liable for payment of
compensation as laid down in the Staff Regulations, which
specify that a member of staff covered by the relevant
provisions may be required to make good, in whole or in
part, any damage suffered by the Communities as a
result of serious misconduct on his/her part in the course
of or in connection with the performance of his/her
duties, in particular if he/she determines entitlements to
be recovered or issues recovery orders, commits expendi-
ture or signs a payment order without complying with this
Regulation and the implementing rules.

The authorising officer shall be liable for payment of

1.
compensation as laid down in the Staff Regulations.

The requirement to pay compensation shall apply in par-
ticular if:

— the authorising officer, whether

intentionally or
through serious negligence on his part, determines
entitlements to be recovered or issues recovery orders,
commits expenditure or signs a payment order without
complying with this Regulation and the implementing
rules,

— the authorising officer, whether

intentionally or
through serious negligence on his part, omits to draw
up a document establishing a debt, neglects to issue a
recovery order or is late in issuing it or is late in
issuing a payment order, thereby rendering the insti-
tution liable to civil action by third parties.

When the case and the degree of misconduct are consid-
ered, all circumstances, in particular the resources made
available to the authorising officer to enable him to
perform his duties, must be taken into account.

In keeping with the principle of proportionality, the level
of liability of the authorising officer shall be assessed
primarily on the basis of the degree of misconduct. If the
authorising officer acts negligently, the liability shall be
restricted to a maximum of 12 months' salary. If the
authorising officer acts intentionally or deliberately, he
shall be liable for the entire loss suffered.

whereas distribution of water is inegalitarian when it should be a universal public service planned and
managed at local level, which is the most appropriate level for it; whereas innovative and democratic
communal governance can develop around such local public services; whereas control over water and its
quality is vital for the sustainable development of the most deprived populations,

D. whereas water quality, which is essential to life, is one of the major factors in mortality in developing
countries, causing millions of deaths every year, half of the casualties being children; whereas over a

sector,

Wednesday, 15 March 2006

F. whereas the above-mentioned ACP-EU Water Facility aims, within the framework of the MDGs and the
WSSD targets, to ‘boost the sustainable delivery of water and sanitation infrastructure and improve water
governance and Integrated Water Resources Management practices in ACP countries by helping to
address the financing gap’,

1. Declares that water is a shared resource of mankind and that, as such, access to water constitutes a
fundamental human right; calls for all necessary efforts to be made to guarantee access to water for the
most deprived populations by 2015;

2. Calls for the Commission to represent the European Union at the Fourth World Water Forum with a
mandate to seek recognition in the final ministerial declaration that access to drinking water is a funda-
mental human right; calls, in this context, for the European Union and its Member States to propose, under
the auspices of the United Nations, the drafting of an international treaty on water and the management of
water resources which recognises the right to access to drinking water;

3. Regrets the low level of incorporation of World Water Forum actions in the work of the United
Nations; recalls that 21 international agencies deal in various ways with the water issue and, in this connec-
tion, calls for the establishment of a Water Coordination Agency under the direct responsibility of the
United Nations;

Stresses that this Water Coordination Agency should integrate protection of public health and the envir-
4.
onment into water resource management and have the task of developing strategies that encourage forms of
economic and agricultural development compatible with maintaining or restoring a high standard of water
quality;

5.
Emphasises that the management of water resources should revolve around a participatory and inte-
grated approach that associates users and decision-makers in establishing water policies at the local level and
in a democratic manner;

6. Calls for all programmes on water supply and sanitation to include specific actions directed at addres-
sing gender inequalities so as to ensure equal distribution of benefits and the opportunities resulting from
them and at supporting women's role in the supply, management and maintenance of water resources;

7. Welcomes the allocation of 500 million euro from the 9th European Development Fund (EDF) made,
together with another allocation of 475 million euro from the same EDF for water supply and sanitation,
for the launching of the above-mentioned ACP-EU Water Facility; calls for water supply and sanitation to be
adequately funded in the 10th EDF; hopes that international institutions will increase the role of water in
their action plans and that debt relief will also benefit investment in water;

8. Underlines and supports the findings of the above-mentioned UN Millennium Project Task Force on
Water and Sanitation, according to which the main MDG targets will be missed unless a number of precon-
ditions are met, including

— increased development assistance for and increased targeting of the least developed countries,

— a reallocation of resources from low- and middle-income developing countries to the poorest,

C 291 E/296

EN

30.11.2006

Wednesday, 15 March 2006

— increased involvement of all relevant actors so as to create real ownership of water supply and sanitation

initiatives and focus on community mobilisation;

9. Calls for local authorities in the European Union to be encouraged to allocate a proportion of the
charges paid by users for the supply of water and sanitation services to decentralised cooperation measures
and for the Union to set aside the necessary resources to enable it to support and back up such measures, in
particular with regard to coordinating data and exploiting and disseminating results;

10. Calls on the Commission and the Council to recognise the fundamental role of local authorities in
water protection and management and regrets that the skills, experience and resources of local authorities
are insufficiently exploited by EU funding programmes since, given their technical competences, know-how
and experience, local authorities in the EU are particularly suited to helping local communities in developing
countries;

11. Underlines that action to improve water supply and sanitation must not be taken in isolation, but
should rather be part of a coherent, cross-cutting development strategy that includes other policy areas such
as health and education, infrastructure, capacity-building and good governance as well as sustainable devel-
opment strategies;

12. Underlines the importance of early prevention of regional water-related conflicts, especially in regions
where countries share a common basin; calls, in this context, for further EU and international efforts to
improve regional water policy coordination and to promote the setting-up of regional water management
bodies;

13. Underlines the increased risk of water scarcity due to climate change; recalls that desertification,
melting glaciers, lowered water-tables and rising saltwater threaten water supplies in many parts of the
world; calls on the EU and its Member States and the international community to implement measures
against climate change in order to halt these negative trends;

14. Calls for shared management of environmental and prevention policies in order to create a truly
common water management policy implemented in all EU external policies, guided by the principles of the
Water Framework Directive, which aims to achieve medium- and long-term conservation of the quality of
water resources, and in this regard considers that all EU financing of cooperation projects and bilateral
endeavours with regard to water should comply with the general approach of the EU's environmental legisla-
tion;

15. Welcomes and encourages the work done by European and international civil society organisations in
seeking solutions to problems relating to access to water, particularly for the poorest populations; recom-
mends that the participants at the Fourth World Water Forum take an interest in the activities of civil
society organisations while the Forum is taking place and that they seriously consider the proposals made
by those organisations;

16.
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the ACP-EU Council
of Ministers, the UN Secretary-General and the general secretariat of the Committees for the Global Water
Contract.

A. whereas a social and economic approach to risks is the key element characterising the European social
models and whereas it is applied in a variety of forms as part of the different national policies designed
to build a welfare state based on the idea of solidarity and social security,

B. whereas these risks, if they are not anticipated, can affect and impact on employees, for whom work is
one of the essential elements of their liberty and dignity, and employers and their productive assets,
which evolve in the context of the competition inherent to an open economy,

C. whereas a distinction should be made between, on the one hand, the restructuring of businesses linked
to changes in specific industrial sectors and, on the other, the relocation of businesses, most often for
the purpose of reducing production costs, and whereas these two issues require different responses,

D. whereas economic change is inevitable, whether in the form of foreseeable or unforeseen evolution,
through adopted policies or as a result of crises; whereas these transformations affect all European
States, whatever their level of economic development and social protection, though the challenges they
face may differ and be met with specific responses according to the nature of their productive assets and
long-term strategic investment and research choices, and, in a broader sense, their recent economic and
political history,

E. whereas restructuring is a specific form of economic change and may be a sudden and reluctant process
of adaptation by a business to changes in consumer needs and the constraints of the globalised
economic climate, with a view to enabling it to remain competitive or regain its competitiveness, and
whereas businesses and workers must constantly adapt to create growth and employment,

Wednesday, 15 March 2006

F. whereas there are various levels of restructuring (inter-sector, within a single sector, within an individual
company and at worker level); whereas, at company level, various types of restructuring may be
observed (changes in production processes, outsourcing, relocation, site closure, job cuts, mergers and
acquisitions etc.); whereas restructuring at worker level takes place when increased demands are placed
on workers' skills; whereas these differing levels and types of restructuring call for different responses,

G. whereas one of the consequences of globalisation is increased concentration, regrouping and the creation
of large international groups, sometimes in sectors of vital strategic interest; whereas, therefore, assis-
tance to businesses should no longer be conceived solely on a national and local authority scale but at
international level; whereas, furthermore, small and medium-sized enterprises are also dependent on
globalisation and should receive the same attention as large groups in that regard,

H. whereas the difficulties which cause businesses to undertake restructuring are most often due to an
opening up to international trade, but are also linked to the capacity of businesses to prepare themselves
and their workers for modernisation and restructuring processes; sharing and supporting the Commis-
sion's position that it is appropriate for the EU, together with the Member States, to bear the cost, and
face up to the legislative implications, of policies it implements;

I. whereas the consequences of restructuring sometimes run counter to the Lisbon objectives seeking to
promote full employment, quality of jobs, social and territorial cohesion and sustainable development,
and whereas workers must be guaranteed opportunities for upgrading of skills and lifelong learning,

J. whereas the recognition that economic and social renewal is at the heart of the Lisbon strategy is vital;
and whereas restructuring is also fundamental to the process of wealth creation and the raising of living
standards;

K. whereas the social partners and public authorities have an essential role to play in accompanying restruc-
turing, both at an overall level by creating new jobs and at an individual level by providing the workers
concerned with opportunities to adapt to a new activity, in particular by means of training, but also in
anticipating it and seeking alternative solutions wherever possible,

L. whereas mobility in Europe is too low, which means that business potential is insufficiently exploited;
whereas workers who are willing to move are often deterred from taking up their activities abroad as a
result of administrative and linguistic obstacles; whereas insufficient use is made of national measures for
lifelong learning;

M. whereas the weakness of European growth and business competitiveness are in part due to the weakness
of investment in production and research; whereas the EU should promote and support the investment
capacity of businesses as well as Research and Development,

C 291 E/300

30.11.2006

N. whereas, in view of their responsibility for adequately anticipating restructuring, businesses should guar-

antee the best possible training conditions for their workers in respect of:

— initial practical training periods and apprenticeship;

— the ongoing training of their employees;

— the recognition of work experience; bearing in mind that workers only gain real benefit from

training if they have the opportunity to apply their new knowledge immediately;

and whereas,
in order to meet these objectives, businesses should draw up plans and schedules of
responsibility for training and the development of qualifications, negotiated between the social partners
on the one hand, and the institutions awarding professional qualifications on the other,

O. whereas the principal source of information at European level

is the European Foundation for the
Improvement of Living and Working Conditions, which manages the ERM (European Restructuring
Monitor) and whereas its use should be optimised, particularly as regards the visibility and accessibility
of information in all EU languages,

P. whereas one of the reasons why European businesses are in difficulty is the absence, at international
level, of adequate rules on intellectual property protection or effective measures to combat counter-
feiting,

1. Welcomes the Commission's decision to opt for a global, transversal approach to an issue which is as
important for businesses as it is to workers and their social and working environment;

2. Agrees with the Commission that restructuring is not necessarily synonymous with social decline and a
loss of economic substance provided that it is properly anticipated, that firms can manage it quickly and
effectively in dialogue with trade unions, and respecting national customs and practice, that anticipatory
measures at business level together with public action help ensure that the change is carried out in sound
conditions and that businesses prepare for restructuring by providing ongoing training for their workers;
considers that these conditions are not often met;

3. Considers that business restructuring should only take place if warranted by the circumstances, namely
in order to save jobs or improve the competitiveness and the economic development of firms;

4. Notes that continual processes of adaptation to changing circumstances are unavoidable if businesses
are to develop; accordingly, considers it important — as the European social partners also noted in their
joint document of 16 October 2003, entitled ‘Orientations for reference in managing change and its social
consequences’— to explain in good time to workers and/or their representatives the need for changes, and
to take the interests of the workers into account;

5. Considers that, in line with the European Economic and Social Committee's above-mentioned opinion
of 29 September 2005, while the success of restructuring is certainly measured in terms of businesses'
competitiveness and innovative capacity, it is equally measured in terms of job preservation and the good
social management of any negative consequences;

6. Considers that, since the European Union promotes the opening-up of the market, it should propose
measures and financial resources better to anticipate and accompany restructuring and its social conse-
quences, as well as to promote innovation and the search for new entrepreneurial potential, and the mainte-
nance of working conditions;

30.11.2006

EN

Official Journal of the European Union

C 291 E/301

7. Considers that the Union needs to rise to challenges of a global dimension, such as restructuring, by
improving the competitiveness of Europe's economy and businesses through better coordination and more
consistent application of four existing Community instruments:

Wednesday, 15 March 2006

— competition policy, particularly the issue of State aid,

— internal market policy, particularly the ‘Societas Europea’ and the Community patent,

— enterprise policy, particularly support for SMEs,

— solidarity policy, particularly by reorienting the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and the

European Social Fund (ESF) to regions affected by actual or planned restructuring;

8. Agrees with the Commission that the ESF and, to a lesser extent, the ERDF in respect of SMEs under-
going restructuring, which are too often overlooked, have a crucial role to play in anticipating and managing
restructuring; proposes that the financial programmes under discussion for 2007-2013 should be geared
more closely to anticipating and managing restructuring, especially in areas where a high proportion of
industry is accounted for by a limited number of sectors, and that the Funds will be allocated a budget
adequate to this task;

9. Considers — in view of the unpredictability of some restructuring events and the difficulty of foreseeing
their impact on the local area, and given the extent to which the Union's policies are responsible for this —
that a European globalisation adjustment fund and a contingency reserve should be set up, and welcomes in
this connection the abovementioned Presidency conclusions on the Financial Perspective 2007-2013;

10. Urges that

a)

the size of an undertaking in which restructuring has taken place or its geographical location within the
Union should not be used as the sole selection criteria for potential EU aid and that appropriate account
should also be taken of the interests of SMEs;

b) another criterion should be whether a firm includes provision for adjustment processes as part of its

business planning, and in particular whether it is committed to initial and further training;

11. Considers that the EU is an essential partner, whose role is to assist the conversion process in regions
where restructuring (industrial, tertiary, intersectoral, intrasectoral, etc.) has taken place:

12. Calls on the EU to support geographical mobility and mobility of employment in order to make
better use of the available workforce of every category and, in particular, of young people, women and
persons above 45 years of age; also calls on the EU to help remove administrative and linguistic barriers to
mobility;

13. Calls on the Commission to submit a proposal concerning the 14th Company Law Directive on the
cross-border transfer of the registered office of limited companies, under which the transfer of registered
offices must not be used to restrict workers' rights; considers that the protection of workers' acquired rights
regarding their participation in company decisions (employee participation) must be both a fundamental
principle and a declared objective of the directive;

14.
Suggests that environmental issues should be taken into account in the context of European assistance
during restructuring, in particular by promoting the conversion of industrial or agricultural processes to
activities which are less polluting and hence less dangerous for the surrounding population and for the
workers;

C 291 E/302

EN

Official Journal of the European Union

30.11.2006

Wednesday, 15 March 2006

15. Notes, furthermore, that the people most affected by restructuring are those employees made redun-
dant and that they should always receive priority aid as should the economic activities dependent on the
business undergoing restructuring, particularly sub-contracting SMEs; stresses the need to take better
account of the ‘hidden effects’ of restructuring, such as those to workers' health; notes that individuals
directly threatened by redundancy suffer medical and psychological problems, and that, during the first five
years following their dismissal, the mortality rate among such employees is twice as high as among those
who are not dismissed; considers, therefore, that financial assistance should not be limited to the structural
aspect of restructuring and that the human dimension of these challenges should be taken into account by
prioritising personally-tailored assistance for workers;

16. Welcomes the Commission's attitude to restructuring in its communication of 31 March 2005 entitled
‘Restructuring and Employment: Anticipating and accompanying restructuring in order to develop employ-
ment: the role of the European Union’ (COM(2005)0120); highlights, in this connection, the joint work of
the European social partners on the topic of restructuring, which provides important restructuring guide-
lines, which should become part of business practice;

17. Condemns also, among the hidden effects of restructuring, the early retirement of employees, who
then, on account of their age, are the least employable, giving rise to significant financial costs to society,
the loss of their professional skills and a senseless risk of labour shortage;

18. Calls for better monitoring and better traceability of the use of Community funds, so as to ensure that
they are properly used, to prevent their being diverted to related, speculative or administrative purposes and
to prevent their being used to fund relocations; calls in particular for firms subsidised from EU funds which
relocate part or all of their activities to be barred from receiving any further Community aid for a period of
seven years and for them to be required possibly to reimburse aid so as to prevent subsidy tourism;

19. Reaffirms the essential character of the Community acquis in the social field and the particular impor-
tance of existing legal instruments, which must be fully applied and better monitored by the Member States,
who are responsible for their proper transposition and application. This concerns in particular the
following:

— Directive 94/45/EC on the establishment of a European Works Council,

— Directive 98/59/EC on collective redundancies,

— Directive 2001/23/EC on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the safe-
guarding of employees' rights in the event of transfers of undertakings, businesses or parts of undertak-
ings or businesses,

— Directive 2002/14/EC establishing a general framework for informing and consulting employees;

20. Regrets that the second-phase consultation on the European Works Council only forms in a small
part of the extensive Commission Communication of 31 March 2005, and calls on the Commission, if it
intends to revise Directive 94/45/EC, to launch a proper second phase consultation offering social partners
the opportunity to negotiate in accordance with article 138 of the EC Treaty and the principle of transpar-
ency.

21. Reiterates its request for the Commission to submit a proposal to amend Directive 94/45/EC to
strengthen the rights of employees working for Europe-wide groups;

22.
Shares the Commission's opinion that the European social partners should occupy a central place in
accompanying and managing restructuring with a view to promoting worker mobility in Europe and the
putting in place of structures for lifelong learning wherever appropriate;

30.11.2006

EN

Official Journal of the European Union

C 291 E/303

Wednesday, 15 March 2006

23. Calls on the Commission to continue to work towards a Community framework for the protection of
workers' rights in the event of restructuring; notes in this connection the work already undertaken by the
social partners and calls on them to find ways of applying the good practices they have identified; calls on
the Commission to submit a proposal for a directive in the absence of an adequate response from social
partners;

24. Calls on the Commission to put in place, in accordance with the spirit of the Lisbon Agenda, an open
method of coordination (OMC) in this area, with a view to providing the Member States with broad guide-
lines on restructuring;

25. Calls for a reform of State aid in order to target it as much as possible towards the areas which contri-
bute most to growth and employment, thus preventing its use to fund unjustified relocations or restruc-
turing; also, calls for State aid to be authorised more easily in weakened sectors requiring specific or transi-
tional rules where it does not distort competition in the internal market;

26. Calls on the Member States to set up specific measures adapted to the tradition of each Member State,
which may take the form of permanent conversion units, where necessary, to assist employees affected by
restructuring and guarantee equal treatment whatever the employee's nationality, sex or age; considers that
these conversion units may be based, in particular, on the regional employment pacts; calls on the Member
States to adopt, as a matter of urgency, measures for the mutual recognition of professional training
diplomas, the certification of atypical qualifications and the recognition of experience; considers it essential
that action plans be adopted to support workers who are made redundant; considers also that aid for
training and re-training should be given as quickly as possible;

27. Considers that equity participation by employees may be an appropriate way to secure their greater
involvement in decisions leading up to restructuring; calls, therefore, on the social partners — and on the
Commission and Member States — to move forward in this debate and to put this subject back on the
agenda of the broad debate on the future of social Europe launched by the British presidency in 2005;

28. Calls on the European Union, in deepening the internal market and concluding international trade
agreements, to take into account the difficulties facing enterprises so that the consequences of its policies are
predictable;

29. Considers, with a view to anticipating and accompanying as effectively as possible the difficulties firms
may face, that use should be made of all relevant sectoral analysis tools so as to permit the monitoring and
ongoing evaluation of each sector of economic activity in Europe; welcomes, therefore, the willingness
expressed in the above-mentioned communication of 31 March 2005 to give an enhanced role to the Euro-
pean Monitoring Centre on Change (EMCC) and stresses the need for EU citizens to have greater access to
the EMCC's work;

30. Calls on the Commission to propose a European one-stop Internet shop for all citizens, local authori-
ties, social partners and businesses affected, enabling them to find information on the problems related to
restructuring, on the opportunities which exist for anticipating and properly managing restructuring, and on
their rights (including access to various types of assistance) and obligations;

31. Underlines the need for analyses of the monitoring of past restructuring events, with a view to ascer-
taining their real impact on the businesses concerned, so as to permit a more effective approach to future
restructuring;

32. Calls on the EU's commercial partners to implement laws on intellectual property protection, and on
the Member States to do their utmost to combat counterfeiting effectively;

33.

Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council and Commission.

tion (1),

— having regard to its resolution of 24 September 2003 on the Joint Report by the Commission and the

— having regard to the report of the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs and the opinion of the

Committee on Women's Rights and Gender Equality (A6-0028/2006),

A. whereas, at the Lisbon European Council in March 2000, the European Union set out a comprehensive
strategy aimed at long-term economic growth, full employment, social cohesion and sustainable develop-
ment in a knowledge-based society based on know-how and innovation; whereas five years later the
objectives of that strategy remain far from being achieved,

B. whereas, at the Nice European Council in 2000, the Member States undertook to show a significant and

measurable reduction in poverty and social exclusion by the year 2010,

C. whereas social inclusion is a matter of human dignity, as a fundamental right,

D. whereas, under certain conditions, social

inclusion may make a direct and telling contribution to

economic development,

E. whereas social inclusion is a matter of social cohesion, a basic value of the European Union and a tool
for combating social exclusion and discrimination that means fighting against wasting human resources
and the severe consequences of demographic change,

F. whereas, according to statistics from OECD sources, the population of the countries belonging to that
organisation is ageing and, while there are currently 38 people in retirement for every 100 workers, if
employment policy remains unchanged this figure could rise to as many as 70 people in retirement for
every 100 workers,

G. whereas the modernisation of social protection should not just be about ensuring financial sustainability,
but sharing risks that individuals cannot face on their own and promoting economic growth and
employment so as to make them sustainable,

H. reaffirming, therefore, that social protection based on universality, equity and solidarity is an essential

component of the European social model,

General points

1. Welcomes the abovementioned joint report which covers both social protection and social inclusion for
the first time at the level of the EU-25 and which looks at the progress of the Member States towards
achieving the objectives agreed by the Lisbon European Council; notes that the report aims at making key
inroads into the fight against social exclusion and the eradication of poverty by 2010 and also at helping
Member States to reform social protection systems with a view to ensuring their ability to provide high-
quality services and their adequacy and sustainability in the future;

2. Notes that the joint report states that the fight against poverty and social exclusion remains a major
challenge for the Union and its Member States, as the income-based figures relating to poverty and social
exclusion across the Union are very significant, with more than 68 million, or 15 % of the EU population
living at risk of poverty in 2002;

3. Notes that, despite significant structural improvements in the EU labour markets over the last decade,
EU employment and participation levels remain insufficient and unemployment remains high in a number
of Member States, especially amongst certain categories of people, such as the young, older workers,
women, and people with specific disadvantages; notes also that labour market exclusion has a national but
also a local and regional dimension;

4. Draws attention to the fact that the recent economic slowdown, with rising unemployment and fewer
job opportunities, puts more people at risk of poverty and exclusion and worsens the position of those
already affected; this is particularly the case in some Member States that suffer from long-term unemploy-
ment or inactivity;

5.
Emphasises that employment must be viewed as the most effective safeguard against poverty and,
consequently, that the financial attractiveness of work should be maintained through incentives for the
employment of women and the setting of qualitative objectives for the jobs that are offered;

Social inclusion

6. Considers that efforts against poverty and social exclusion must be sustained and extended to improve
the situation of those people most at risk of poverty and exclusion, such as those in casual employment, the
unemployed, single parent households (usually headed by women), older people living alone, women,
families with several dependants, disadvantaged children, as well as ethnic minorities, sick or disabled
people, the homeless, victims of trafficking and victims of drug and alcohol dependency;

7. Considers it crucial to recognise the difficulties faced by people at a disadvantage, including disabled
people, ethnic minorities and immigrants, in accessing or remaining on the labour market; calls on the
Member States to support the integration of people at a disadvantage in order to prevent and combat social
exclusion, as well as to promote education, encourage job creation, professional training and career develop-
ment, the reconciliation of professional and family life and the right to equal access to health care and
decent accommodation and ensure the sustainability of social protection systems; points in this regard to
the necessity of improving comparable data;

8. Highlights the fact that tackling disadvantages in education and training and improving the qualifica-
tions of the labour force regardless of age, for men and women and ethnic and national minorities, are key
tools for combating unemployment; notes also that addressing those inequalities is of particular importance
for achieving the Lisbon targets regarding employment, quality of work and social inclusion;

Stresses in this respect that, as regards the Roma minority, it is desirable that members of that minority
9.
be given every motivation to have an interest in the further education of their children, the development of
their children's positive qualities and skills;

10. Calls on the Member States to exchange best practice to prevent early departure from education, raise
the level of education, especially in languages and new technologies, facilitate the transition from school to
work, increase access to education and training for disadvantaged groups, including less skilled and older
workers, and lay the ground for access to lifelong learning for all; stresses that these strategies should
involve all the stakeholders concerned, including the social partners, but also civil society and learning provi-
ders, while reserving a key role for the state in guaranteeing high-quality public education;

30.11.2006

EN

Official Journal of the European Union

C 291 E/307

11. Recommends that, in order to limit the exclusion of persons over the age of 50 and to help them
remain on the job market, Member States guard against the risks of exclusion from the world of work by
developing access to lifelong learning;

Wednesday, 15 March 2006

12. Considers, in this respect, that, given the benefits that a qualified workforce brings to employers, it
goes without saying that employers should be more involved in the process of lifelong learning;

Points out, however, that in certain cases neither a sufficient level of education nor repeated requalifi-
13.
cation guarantee employment; emphasises, therefore, the need to make greater use of not-for-profit public
service work;

Stresses that in fourteen out of the seventeen Member States for which data are available (1) child
14.
poverty rose during the 1990s; draws attention to the fact that persistent child poverty mainly concentrates
on single-parent families, large families with three or more dependent children, immigrants and people from
ethnic minorities, and families with unemployed or under-employed parents; stresses that priority attention
at EU and Member State level should be given to the prevention and elimination of the intergenerational
transmission of poverty and that this should be underpinned by appropriate financial resources (such as
increased use of the Structural Funds, especially the European Social Fund); underlines that indicators have
to be approached from the child's perspective and that of people living alone, even if it is known that child
poverty cannot be reduced without reducing household poverty and ensuring access to high-quality services
for all;

15.
Points out that, according to Eurostat sources, a third of births in the EU now occur outside the insti-
tution of marriage and this figure is increasing annually; considers that this trend bears witness to the need
to find effective mechanisms to promote the proper functioning of different types of family as an institu-
tion;

16. Considers that social services dealing with children and childcare are an important precondition for
the prevention and reduction of child poverty, social exclusion and discrimination, and the facilitation of the
reconciliation of work and family life; stresses the need to ensure easy and equal access to education for all
children; recognises the vital role of private operators in supplying services in this regard;

17. Calls on the Commission to put forward a Green Paper on child poverty, setting out clear targets and
appropriate measures to eliminate child poverty as steps towards the social inclusion of poor children;

18. Calls on the Commission to step up its efforts to introduce a ‘Children's Charter’ that seeks to achieve
progress in upholding the rights of the child as part of the EU's internal and external policies;

19. Draws attention to the needs of young people, who face particular difficulties as regards economic
and social integration on leaving education and entering the world of work, and who are more susceptible
to falling victim to social exclusion; calls on the Member States to ensure that youth unemployment is
addressed specifically, as a priority in its own right, through specific policy measures and training, inter alia,
to encourage the taking of initiative and the development of entrepreneurial spirit;

20. Calls on the Member States to develop integrated strategies seeking to promote, in economic, social,
cultural and environmental terms, the development of geographically remote and underdeveloped urban,
island and rural areas, with a view to confronting the problems of exclusion and poverty and not allowing
them to endure from one generation to the next;

21.
Emphasises the need to increase the participation of women in employment by eliminating obstacles
that prevent women from entering it, and particularly by encouraging older women to remain longer in the
labour market;

22. Recommends that the Member States support a policy of growth and female employment by facili-
tating women's access to quality jobs and promoting equal-wage conditions;

23.
Emphasises that increasing female activity rates must be viewed not only as a necessary safeguard
against the risk of poverty, which primarily affects women, but also as a means to maintain the balance
between the number of persons economically active and those inactive, which is endangered by the ageing
of the population;

24. Calls, in this regard, on the Member States to focus on the elimination of inequalities on the labour
market, such as gender gaps in employment, unemployment and atypical employment, gender segregation
in sectors and occupations, gender pay gaps, unequal status and the limited participation of women in deci-
sion-making positions; considers that, in doing so, Member States should facilitate personal choices in terms
of the reconciliation of work and family life and access to quality and affordable care services for children
and other dependants; further believes that it is essential to ensure the mainstreaming of a gender perspec-
tive in all policies and programmes;

25.
Furthermore, calls on the Member States to take action to ensure that when their pension entitlement
is calculated women are not penalised for gaps in their employment record caused by maternity leave or
parental leave;

26. Calls on the Member States, in their fight against the high levels of exclusion faced by ethnic minori-
ties and immigrants, to develop and implement measures, including measures to raise awareness, for the
integration of these target groups into the formal labour market, to enforce anti-trafficking and anti-discrimi-
integration through specific provisions and complex
nation legislation, and to facilitate their social
programmes relating to special educational programmes, and decent living and housing conditions, as a
precondition for social inclusion;

27. Urges the Commission to put forward proposals aimed at setting up an appropriate legal framework
to eradicate discrimination against people with disabilities, by promoting equal opportunities and the full
participation of such people in work, society and politics, specifically by means of a proposal for a directive
based on Article 13 of the EC Treaty to cover the areas still not dealt with;

28.
Stresses the need to improve housing conditions, especially accessibility, for those less-favoured groups
which are particularly affected by poverty, such as people at a disadvantage and older people who cannot
look after themselves; demands that more attention be paid to the homeless, especially by providing care,
imparting basic skills, and promoting social integration, which will necessitate public policies, especially in
the areas of housing, health and education, to ensure that such people have access to those facilities;

29. Moreover, considers, in this respect, that such basic skills, the teaching of which would not only be
aimed at cultivating the abilities people need in order to look after themselves but also at instilling solidarity
with the less able, should be taught continuously to the whole of European society, starting during primary
education;

30.
Fully supports the Commission's intention to organise a European year of Equal Opportunities for All
in 2007; considers that this should assist in highlighting the significance of the issue, assessing the progress
achieved throughout the EU and providing a framework for further policy measures and initiatives with a
view to enhancing the EU's anti-discrimination legislation, addressing direct and indirect discrimination and
covering gender-equality in all areas;

31. Welcomes the recognition that the most socially deprived people generally experience the poorest
socio-environmental conditions and that this should be given due consideration when tackling social exclu-
sion;

32. Calls on the Commission to take legal action against Member States that do not apply or have failed
to transpose by the prescribed deadline the anti-discrimination directives based on Article 13 of the EC
Treaty;

33. Reasserts the need for an improvement in harmonised data collection and the development of
common indicators that take account of age and sex differences, as indicators of this kind play a major role
in the monitoring and evaluation of policies on poverty and social exclusion;

30.11.2006

EN

Official Journal of the European Union

C 291 E/309

Wednesday, 15 March 2006

34. Considers that a real mainstreaming of social
inclusion in policy making should be implemented
through the establishment of systematic ex-ante and ex-post policy assessments, both at national and EU
level;

35.
Points out that the social-inclusion process should truly involve key actors at local or regional level,
such as local authorities in charge of social inclusion policies, social partners, NGOs and people experiencing
poverty and social exclusion;

Supports the intention of Commission to devote special attention to the task of combating poverty by

36.
organising the European Year of Combating Exclusion and Poverty;

Social protection

37. Considers that the rapid changes arising from globalisation and the wide use of information and
communication technologies increase vulnerability to social risk and generate a need for more efficient
social protection measures with a view to ensuring the right of all to social protection;

Points out that social security and benefit systems are often slow to respond to more flexible forms of
38.
employment and self-employment and fail to offer appropriate support and that this can prove a barrier to
people taking up employment; considers therefore that this should be taken in to account when moder-
nising systems;

39. Considers that the current demographic trends — an ageing workforce and the decline of the
working-age population — constitute a challenge in the medium and longer term for the financial sustain-
ability of social protection systems;

Points, in this regard, to the necessity of promoting the development and implementation of compre-
40.
hensive ageing strategies aimed at empowering workers to stay active longer and encouraging employers to
hire and retain older workers;

41. Urges the Commission to put forward proposals aimed at setting up an appropriate legal framework
to eradicate discrimination against people on the basis of age;

42. Considers, in this respect, that the European Social Fund may have an important role to play in the
integration and reintegration of older workers into the labour market, and, more generally, in the social
inclusion of vulnerable and/or socially-excluded groups;

43. Considers that, in order for pension schemes to be financially sustainable, there is a need for economic
growth and sufficient productivity, as well as high levels of employment and the active promotion of lifelong
learning, quality of work and a safe and healthy working environment;

44. Recommends that pension systems should not only consist of a wide range of forms of social and
supplementary insurance (whether statutory or private) but should also guarantee, to the greatest possible
extent, social justice in pension systems;

45.
Takes the view that, in order to prevent adverse effects on employment, reforms of public pensions
systems should avoid increasing the total tax burden on labour, but achieve an appropriate balance between
taxes on labour and taxes on other resources;

46. Calls on the Member States to reinforce administrative and institutional capacity,
including the
improvement of equal access to high-quality services, particularly, in the fields of health and long-term care,
social security, social services, including the provision of counselling in social rights, child-related services,
transport and mobility services, reintegration services focused on the labour-market integration, and voca-
tional training services;

47. Awaits the Commission's document on minimum income as a potentially useful contribution to the
debate on social inclusion and social protection;

C 291 E/310

EN

Official Journal of the European Union

30.11.2006

Wednesday, 15 March 2006

48. Welcomes the Council's decision regarding the application of the open method of coordination in the
field of health and long-term care; points out that the organisation and delivery of services and medical care
is and should remain an area of Member State competence; reiterates its support for the three fundamental
objectives of health and long-term care: universal access, irrespective of income or wealth, a high level of
quality, and financial sustainability;

49.
Stresses that particular attention should be paid to persons requiring long-term or expensive care, and
to those facing particular difficulties in accessing care; emphasises that, if health is to be promoted and
protected, health systems must be based not only on the insurance principle but also on the solidarity prin-
ciple;

50. Advocates, furthermore, the increase of all those social services necessary with regard to the care of
dependent persons, i.e. those unable to perform basic everyday actions by themselves;

51. Notes that, although public pension schemes should remain an important source of pensioners'
income, private provision through occupational or personal schemes can play a complementary role in
obtaining additional pension entitlements;

Points out, in this context, the need for coordination of comprehensive information and monitoring

52.
systems highlighting the consequences for the income and living standards of individuals;

Stresses the importance of a continuous evaluation of pension systems' effectiveness with regard to

53.
their financial sustainability, as well as the achievement of social objectives;

54. Calls on the European Council, in the interest of streamlining and simplifying the open method of
coordination, to adopt at its summit in Spring 2006 an integrated framework in the fields of social protec-
tion and integration and to agree on a uniform list of common objectives in the field of social integration,
pensions, health and long-term care;

55. Regards the creation of an integrated framework and the streamlining of coordination in the fields of
social protection and integration as an opportunity, in the context of the Lisbon process, to boost the social
dimension of social protection as a dimension with its own independent socio-economic significance as
opposed to the coordination of social and employment policy;

56. Calls on the Member States and the Commission, when applying the open method of coordination to
social protection and integration, to pay greater attention in the future to issues of reconciling work and
family life, with particular emphasis on access to childcare, family income situations and the employment
rate of mothers;

57. Calls on the Member States to make optimal use of the potential offered by the open method of coor-
dination process, as an instrument of policy making in the fields of employment, social protection, social
inclusion, pensions and health;

58. Calls on the Member States — particularly the new Member States — to review their pension systems,
taking account of the significantly lower life expectancy of men and the major pay differentials between
men and women, which are reflected in the size of the pensions of widowed pensioners, often pushing
them below the poverty line;

59.
Points out that the development and maintenance of the social security systems is closely linked to
the Lisbon goals and can make an important contribution to increased employment and growth, greater
solidarity and better social integration;

60. Reiterates its conviction that its role in applying the open method of coordination — in its capacity as
the body directly representing the citizens of Europe — must be clarified and enhanced in order to give the
process democratic legitimacy;

30.11.2006

EN

C 291 E/311

Wednesday, 15 March 2006

61. Calls on the Council and Commission to open negotiations with Parliament on an inter-institutional
agreement setting out the rules for selecting the areas of policy to which the open method of coordination
is to be applied, and providing for a coherent application of the method with the unrestricted and equal
participation of Parliament;

62.
Stresses that such an inter-institutional agreement must contain rules for the participation of Parlia-
ment in the setting of objectives and indicators and in access to documents, participation in meetings, obser-
vation and supervision of progress, information on reports and best practices, and a procedure enabling the
open method of coordination to evolve into a Community method;

General Framework

1.
Notes that, in the absence of an agreement on a new Interinstitutional Agreement amongst the Euro-
pean Parliament, the Council and the Commission for the period 2007-2013, point 26 of the current IIA
would in principle apply; in the event that any of the Institutions denounce the current IIA, the provisions
of the EU Treaty (Art. 272) applies;

Expects a detailed report on the developments in heading 5 by the Secretaries-General in March 2006,

2.
which should serve as a basis for consideration of the preliminary draft 2007 budget;

Underlines that the 2007 draft budget will have to take into account the accession of Romania and

3.
Bulgaria as of 1 January 2007;

4.
Notes the implementation of Accrual Based Accounting in all institutions commencing with the finan-
cial statements for the financial year 2005; considers that this process will ensure a more streamlined and
harmonised approach for comparison purposes;

5. Welcomes the implementation by the Council, the European Parliament and the Ombudsman of the
new nomenclature; urges all other institutions to adopt, for purposes of clarity and comparability, the same
nomenclature; invites the other institutions to indicate whether they consider that any changes or adapta-
tions should be made to the new nomenclature in order to take into account their specific administrative
constraints;

Regrets the delays in the full recruitment of staff from the 10 new Member States and expects any

6.
outstanding recruitment to be finalised at the earliest possible date, and not later than December 2006;

7.
Notes that, over the years, staff complements of the various institutions have been increased through
the creation of several additional posts; considers that a consolidation of the establishment plans, together
with a redeployment exercise, is essential prior to the submission of any request for recruitment not directly
linked to the enlargement process; calls on all institutions to harmonise their recruitment policies;

8.
Calls on all institutions to submit realistic requests which would have to be based on justified needs
taking into account the tight financial situation; encourages the institutions to operate at the lowest cost
base possible without compromising standards;

Considers that in the smaller institutions substantial savings could be achieved by a rational pooling of

9.
administrative and human resources;

10.
Reaffirms that the policy of purchasing buildings is one to be pursued by all institutions; invites all
institutions to submit medium-term plans for building policy taking into consideration all financial aspects,
as well as statutory regulations, bearing in mind the future requirements of the smaller institutions and the
eventual potential pooling of services and resources;

Requests that, whenever possible, the institutions should present more comprehensive multi-annual

11.
plans reflecting future political, human resources and infrastructural needs;

12.
Notes that over the years European institutions have failed to convince European citizens that they
truly represent their interests and aspirations; insufficient knowledge coupled with a poor perception makes
understanding of EU policies difficult; takes the view that the existing information services have to be
improved and that an effective strategy, accessible to all European citizens, should be implemented as a
matter of priority for all institutions;

13.
Invites all European institutions to study the feasibility of setting up a Centre of European Houses in
Brussels, utilising existing resources without incurring any significant additional expenditure; in this ‘Euro-
pean Heart’, EU citizens would be able to participate freely in various areas, including cultural and technical
events, training seminars and exhibitions on specific topics; in such a scenario a wider segment of European
citizens can identify themselves with the intellectual and cultural diversity of all European Member States;

European Parliament

Affirms Parliament's commitment to deliver on promises to the EU citizens in an efficient, tangible

14.
and accountable manner and in so doing strengthen the image and credibility of the European Institutions;

Commits itself to fulfil its responsibilities as the only democratically elected representation of the

15.
people of the EU;

16.
Considers that, in view of the financial constraints being experienced at the moment, Parliament
should reserve its position regarding the self-imposed limit of 20 % of the expenditure under heading 5;
reiterates that its estimates should reflect the real financial requirements in order to ensure an appropriate
and efficient functioning of the institutions;

Budgetary rigour and added value

17.
Urges the Administration to make better and more efficient use of resources and avoid duplication of
functions and reduce activities which do not add value to the overall objectives; expects more internal
control on expenditure;

18.
Regrets the unnecessary and exorbitant costs due to the dispersion and duplication of activities in
three different workplaces, which contribute to a highly inefficient cost structure; considers that this should
be re-addressed in an effort to minimise costs and invites the Administration to present specific proposals
by 30 June 2006;

19.
Invites the Administration to compare contracts with standards used in major private companies, in
order to ensure the highest cost/benefit ratio for users, with particular reference to telecom providers,
computer services, hardware and software providers, catering, sports facilities, car services and travel
services;

20.
Expects a report on the progress registered in the area of interinstitutional cooperation and asks the
Secretary-General to make recommendations on the possibilities and limits for further tangible interinstitu-
tional cooperation;

21.
Contends that appropriations should relate to specific activities thus avoiding the cancellation of
appropriations at the end of the year; recommends that sufficient funding should be allocated in areas
where political decisions necessitate greater financial engagement, as in the case of the WTO; stresses that,
wherever possible, amending budgets and transfers should be avoided;

22.
Stresses, once again, the importance of applying the principles of sound financial management and
underlines the importance of the full implementation of Activity Based Budgeting which should result in
having more effective, transparent, rational and analytical estimates;

23.
Recalls its decision to make the budget more comprehensive; notes the introduction of the revised
nomenclature and requests the Administration to provide its relevant committee for the 2007 budget with a
presentation which makes the comparison between the 2006 and 2007 budgets possible;

24.
Requests the Administration to identify activities which do not add value to its operations and to
increase efficiency by rationalising working methods, thereby ensuring value for money for the European
taxpayer;

Enlargement

25.
Reiterates that enlargement remains a key political priority and stresses its commitment to make
enlargement a real success; acknowledges the efforts made by the Institutions in the last enlargement and
calls on them to continue with their efforts to resolve any outstanding administrative issues by the end of
2006;

Notes that an amount of 23 526 000 euro was allocated in the 2006 budget for the pre-enlargement
26.
preparations for Romania and Bulgaria; invites the Administration to be prepared to offer adequate training
programmes for staff coming from Romania and Bulgaria;

Information

Agrees with the Secretary-General that the European Parliament requires a strong and effective infor-
27.
mation strategy that addresses Parliament's objective of bringing Europe closer to its citizens; information
tools and strategies which are not delivering the expected results should be discontinued; considers that
spending more does not necessarily translate into better results; recommends that all Members, political
groups and Administration should be involved and assume responsibility for their respective roles in the
fields of information;

Considers it extremely urgent that, in tandem with discussions on an enhanced media presence, the

28.
structure of debates be examined;

29. Welcomes the new format of the Europarl website, which is more user-friendly, especially for non-
professionals; nonetheless, a more powerful and structured presentation for internal use should be developed
to facilitate the daily work of MEPs and their staff;

30.
Points out that a significant percentage of EU citizens do not have access to the Internet and do not
necessarily use it to gather information about EU policies, and that therefore the role of Information Offices
should be adequately defined and their management coherent when considering Parliament's information
tools; attention should be given to ways of avoiding the duplication of information from various institu-
tions;

31.
Emphasises that particular attention should be given to any information project, not only for its cost
structure, but also for the value of its contents; recommends that all major publications and information-
related projects be prepared and constantly monitored by regular meetings with the participation and coop-
eration of political groups in order to create balanced programmes respecting the pluralism of opinions; the
level of success of any project will have to be measured in terms of its positive impact on EU citizens;

Visitors

Considers that Parliament's visitors' service is of utmost importance to MEPs; visitors groups are the
32.
only efficient way for Members to bring opinion-makers from their constituencies to the workplaces of the
Parliament; regrets, therefore, the high number of complaints concerning the visitors' programme, particu-
larly as regards the non-availability of time-slots and the difference between grants and real costs; stresses
that an attractive and high value visitors' programme is one of the top priorities for the year 2007;

33.
Regrets that improvements in the visitors' programme are long overdue and considers that they
should not be delayed any further; recalls that in 2006 budget 5 million euro were allocated to increase the
number of visitors and to reimburse expenses covering the actual cost of travel expenditure;

34.
Calls for a better reception service for visitors in the various places of Parliament plenary sittings and
for appropriate and adequately equipped meeting areas to be provided; recalls that the visitors' programme
is one of the most effective ways in which citizens can participate actively in Parliament's work thereby
enhancing citizens' perception of the Parliament;

30.11.2006

EN

C 291 E/315

Considers that direct contact with European citizens through an improved visitors' service will have a

35.
multiplier effect that will enhance the perception of the Parliament in the eyes of the citizens;

Assistance to Members — Raising the Game

Acknowledges that the necessary structures for the implementation of the objectives of ‘Raising the

36.
Game’ exercise are now in place;

37. Welcomes the proposals by the Secretary-General to consolidate the ‘Raising the Game’ reform of
Parliament's Administration so as to improve services to Members;

Notes that to date only a limited number of the objectives have been achieved and that Parliament

38.
has not yet experienced the full impact of this exercise;

39.
Expects that by 2007 the targets of the exercise will have been fully met and the necessary reform
implemented, providing Members with a practical and efficient service, especially in legislative matters,
research and language facilities;

Supports the Secretary-General's intention to undertake an evaluation of the state of implementation

40.
of the project;

Stresses that it is imperative to give more assistance to Members when it comes to responding to

41.
requests from concerned citizens regarding day-to-day issues;

Recommends further promotion of the ‘Correspondence with Citizens Unit’ so that Members can

42.
make better use of this service;

43.
Takes the view that Parliament's increased responsibilities in legislative decision-making require more
resources to be allocated in support of this core activity, especially in the areas of research, library and
specific expertise;

44.
Encourages the Administration to conduct a quality survey on the service and assistance being given
to Members and to make the findings of the survey available to all Members by the first reading of the
2007 budget; asks the Secretary General to involve all Members in the survey in order to avoid any
misleading results; expects immediate proposals for improvements in response to any major deficiency
detected by the survey;

45.
Requests that a feasibility study be carried out as regards the possibilities for using free and open
sources software and the staff and professional training needed for maintenance and security of such soft-
ware;

Member's Assistant Statute

46.
Underlines the importance of personal assistants for Members' work and reiterates its position in
support of the adoption of a real and meaningful statute for Members' assistants; regrets that very little
progress has been achieved on the matter; urges the Council to take a decision on the EC Staff Regulation:
EP Members' assistant statute (COM(1998)0312), which should come into force as soon as possible;

Training and development

47.
Notes the lack of immediate availability of training offered to assistants and staff on their arrival in
the European Parliament; considers that a more holistic approach to training development and induction
should be initiated in order to enable assistants and staff to fulfil their duties in a professional manner and
achieve high standards of work, and to develop further the scope of the European Administration School;

48.
Suggests that a traineeship programme in favour of persons with disabilities be formulated in order
to better facilitate their integration in the European working environment; invites the other institutions to
formulate a similar programme;

Property

49.
Points out that the policy on the purchasing of properties and buildings has yielded positive and
tangible results providing Parliament with a strong asset base as well as generating savings, which in turn
allowed it to use these funds for other projects;

Calls on the Bureau to ensure that all Parliament's buildings are environmentally friendly as well as

50.
user-friendly, especially for persons with disabilities;

51.
Urges the Bureau to ensure that a call for offers widely published in local media is an integral part of
the acquisition procedure for the purchasing of European Houses and that all offers received are included in
the dossier presented to the relevant committee before a final decision is taken;

52.
Considering the envisaged financial constraints in the coming years, calls on the Bureau to consider a
multiannual property investment plan instead of an annual plan and to continue with the policy of acceler-
ated payments;

Employment

Invites the Administration to ensure that human resources costs are in line with operational require-
53.
ments and with the financial situation of the institution and effectively to examine the possibility of rede-
ploying existing staff instead of relying on contract agents;

Considers that the long-term quality of legislative work of the House has to be carried out by staff

54.
with a long-term commitment to Parliament rather than by utilising contract agents;

55.
Instructs the Administration to address the problem of staff shortages in a number of European
Houses, including a press officer for each office; an identical request was made by the previous rapporteur
but has not been fully implemented;

Requests the Administration to identify all anomalous situations related to employment and to take

56.
the necessary action to resolve them as quickly as possible;

57.
Notes that problems are likely because of staff ageing and the resulting increasing number of indivi-
duals leaving the service (with some 180 staff members leaving the service each year from 2009 onwards);
asks the Administration to make appropriation preparations for the likely increase in funding requirements;

58.
Recalls that the new Streamline software should be in place by the last quarter of 2006; this should
result in a decrease in the number of posts in the coming years; maintains that, with the exception of enlar-
gement and an extremely limited recruitment of specialised staff, no new employment should take place,
which should result in real savings in the future;

Stocktaking

Takes note that in 2007 there will be no new major projects being undertaken by Parliament; there-
59.
fore considers that now is the opportune time to examine, evaluate and carry out a meaningful stocktaking
exercise; encourages the Secretary-General to implement the necessary changes resulting from this exercise;

Reports and information requested before the first reading of Parliament's budget

Invites the Secretary-General to provide the following information by the end of June 2006 in order

60.
to allow an effective decision-making process:

— A report on ‘more effective budgeting’, which was requested following the 2006 Budget Guidelines and

which has not as yet been presented;

— A study of the financial impact of the introduction of the Irish language as the twenty-first working

language of the European Parliament;

Wednesday, 15 March 2006

— A report on the state of preparation for the enlargement to Romania and Bulgaria on a regular basis,
and at least in May and September on the evolution of recruitment of staff from Romania and Bulgaria;

— An updated report followed by reports on a regular basis, at least in May and September, on the recruit-
ment situation in relation to the 2004 enlargement, with particular reference to the linguistic sector
giving a breakdown between officials, temporary and contractual staff;

— Proposals on how to connect Parliament with those EU citizens who are not Internet users or who do

not have access to it;

— A comprehensive report on the current situation as regards training and development in the Institution;

the relevant financial information and the needs in office space in relation to the 2004 and the forth-
coming enlargement;

— An updated report on the allocation of running costs between the Commission and Parliament,

reflecting the actual expenditure incurred by the two bodies;

— An inventory identifying short and medium term investment needs related to EMAS in order to obtain

the best possible results in the long term;

61.

Requests by 1 September 2006:

— A report on a mid-term budgetary review on the state of implementation of the current year; this would

place Parliament in a better position to properly assess the estimates presented for 2007;

— A presentation of the proposed information projects together with their related costs, benefits and staff

needs, as well as any relevant information;

— A report on the stocktaking exercise and in particular:

— on activities which do not add value to its operations and on increasing efficiency by rationalising

working methods, thereby ensuring value for money for the European taxpayer,

— on the progress registered on the EP Rome report and a comprehensive evaluation, focussing on the real
progress registered over the years in the ‘Raising the Game’ exercise including the conclusion of the
survey;

— on interinstitutional cooperation and on the possibilities for further tangible interinstitutional coopera-
tion such as in the field of information where a more holistic approach by the institutions could avoid
duplication, while having due regard for the institutions' independence;

Other Institutions

Council

Recalls that the gentlemen's agreement only applies to administrative expenditure; consequently,
62.
considers that budgetary rigour should also apply to the appropriation allocated to cover expenditure on
CFSP;

Court of Justice

63.
Recalls that, in December 2005, the budgetary authority authorised Amending Budget No 6/2005 in
order to establish the Civil Service Tribunal; it is expected that a significant decrease in the Court's workload
will result from this restructuring;

Court of Auditors

64. Welcomes the efforts made by the Court of Auditors to improve the services provided as well as the
adoption of Accrual Based Accounting, developed jointly with the Council and the Court of Justice;

65.
Considers that an increase in the establishment plan should only be considered in a medium-term
perspective and only after ensuring that all possibilities for redeployment of existing staff have been
explored;

Committee of the Regions

66.
Acknowledging the fact that the Committee of Regions had to face a difficult situation in the
linguistic service; recommends that the Committee seek a better balance in the staff available between
support and political functions;

67.
Recognises the efforts made by the Committee of the Regions in the field of information and its
cooperation with the Commission, in particular DG PRESS and DG REGIO, as well as with existing regional
networks such as Circom Regional; invites the Committee of the Regions to share its experience in the
communication field with other institutions;

European Economic and Social Committee

Takes note of the renewal of the cooperation agreement between the Committee and the Commis-
68.
in qualitative terms, the opinions it
sion; welcomes the initiative taken by the Committee to evaluate,
provides for the Commission; suggests that the Committee explore the possibility of reaching a similar coop-
eration agreement with Parliament;

Synergy between the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions

69.
Considers that the creation of the joint service has been beneficial for both Committees; Considers
this joint service as an effective and dynamic way of avoiding duplication, reducing costs and developing
team spirit without reducing the quality and efficiency of the service provided; invites the two Committees
to assess which other services could be shared in the same manner; expects both parties to submit a detailed
joint report on this matter before the first reading of the 2007 budget, incorporating specific recommenda-
tions;

70.
Takes note of the needs both Institutions are facing during their plenary meetings; invites the two
Committees to evaluate their medium-term requirements for large meeting facilities with the aim of a better
utilisation of Parliament's facilities; these requirements shall be presented to Parliament for its consideration
at the earliest;

European Ombudsman

Notes that the recruitment of additional staff was approved in the 2006 budget; expects therefore
71.
that no further requests for additional recruitment will be made and that a consolidation exercise of its
establishment plan will be submitted for the 2007 budget;

Invites the European Ombudsman to present its medium-term priorities, together with their financial

72.
implications, in order to enable Parliament to take them into consideration in the estimates for 2007;

European Data Protection Supervisor

73.
Notes that the administrative agreement for cooperation between the Secretaries-General of the Euro-
pean Parliament and the Commission, the Deputy Secretary-General of the Council and the Data Protection
Supervisor will expire on 16 January 2007; considers that this administrative support is particularly to be
welcomed in a situation of budgetary rigour; points out that this cooperation could be further strengthened
in particular by facilitating access to computer facilities hosted in different buildings; invites the institutions
involved to set up before the end of the year the framework for the next agreement which should be for a
longer period;

74.
Invites the European Data Protection Supervisor to present to Parliament its medium-term priorities,
including all the financial implications, in order to enable Parliament to evaluate these priorities, especially if
they happen to be in areas where support is needed in terms of buildings and logistics;

*

*

More environmentally friendly fishing methods

European Parliament resolution on more environmentally friendly fishing methods (2004/2199
(INI))

The European Parliament,

— having regard to the reform of the Common Fisheries Policy,

— having regard to the communication from the Commission to the Council and the European Parliament
technical conservation

on promoting more environmentally friendly fishing methods:
measures (COM(2004)0438),

the role of

— having regard to Rule 45 of its Rules of Procedure,

— having regard to the report of the Committee on Fisheries (A6-0019/2006),

A. whereas it is important to promote fishing methods that respect the environment,

B. whereas the sustainability of fishing resources is essential for guaranteeing fishing activity and the viabi-

lity of the fisheries sector in the long term,

C. whereas fishermen and their representative associations should be involved in determining measures to

protect the marine environment and rebuild depleted stocks,

D. whereas appropriate socio-economic measures should be introduced to provide fishermen with compen-

sation for the costs of reductions in work connected with the plans to rebuild depleted stocks,

1. Welcomes the Commission's communication on the promotion of more environmentally friendly
fishing methods;

2. Reminds the Commission that it should take a more wide-ranging view of measures to protect the
marine environment and rebuild depleted stocks, in particular by considering and studying other factors
which have a considerable impact on the marine environment and the state of resources, such as coastal and
offshore pollution, industrial and agricultural effluents, deep-sea dredging and maritime transport, so as to
complement current management methods;

Emphasises that all technical measures to protect the marine environment and rebuild depleted fish

3.
stocks should be based on scientific fishing research;

4.
Believes this to be an important step in achieving ecologically sustainable management of fisheries in
order to reduce the impact of fishing on the marine environment, while recognising that a certain level of
impact by fishing is unavoidable within reasonable limits; recalls also that pollution as well as overfishing
and non-sustainable fishing methods have a great impact on fisheries, as illustrated, for example, by the fact
that it has been scientifically demonstrated that some pollutants cause serious damage at various stages of
the trophic chain, with grave consequences for commercial species which would need to be protected;

Believes that, while ecological considerations are of major concern, future fisheries management policies

5.
must not be used to further penalise economically and socially vital fishing operations;

6.
Points out that it is essential to achieve a balance between socio-economic exigencies and environmental
sustainability, while underlining the need to activate a mechanism for subsidising or compensating fishermen
who are affected by the negative effects of environmentally friendly fishing, particularly those active in less
developed areas;

7. Calls for the adoption of technical methods to improve selectivity and, therefore, the possibility of
catching fish at the right size, in order to maintain high productivity;

Points out that only by ensuring that fish spawn and develop for a minimum specific period can the

8.
satisfactory reproduction of fish be made possible;

C 291 E/320

Official Journal of the European Union

30.11.2006

Wednesday, 15 March 2006

9.
Emphasises the need to limit any significantly negative impact of fishing on marine biodiversity
through the establishment of marine reserves, real-time area closures and other appropriate and balanced
management measures, to be implemented stringently at least until the marine habitats have returned to safe
biological levels;

10.
Expresses particular concern over the issue of ghost fishing and urges the Commission to take all
appropriate short and long-term action to combat the issue, including close monitoring of the effectiveness
of any provisions that are adopted at EU level;

11. Highlights the need to reduce discards, which produce detrimental biological effects as well as having
negative economic impacts, through the adoption of appropriate technical measures, based on reliable scien-
tific research, such as closed seasons, prohibited zones and mesh size regulations, taking account of the par-
ticular features of each marine area in which the technical conservation measures are implemented;

Invites the Commission to bring forward, without further delay, proposals for pilot projects aimed at

12.
reducing discards;

Suggests in particular that the option of discard bans accompanied by appropriate incentives for fish-

13.
ermen be considered;

14. Urges the Commission to promote actively the adoption of an FAO International Plan of Action on
bycatch reduction;

15. Calls on the Commission to place emphasis on the development of environmentally friendly fishing as
part of the overall package of management measures;

16. Calls on the Commission to avoid conflicting objectives and superfluous regulations and to avail itself
of this opportunity to simplify the overall regulatory system;

17. Calls on the Commission to consider the application of environmentally friendly fishing technical
measures as a complement to existing effort limitations in relation to stock recovery plans;

18.
Believes that, in this context, it is absolutely essential to develop and implement the satellite tech-
nology needed to detect the presence of unauthorised fishing vessels in closed areas and in Marine Protected
Areas, in order to guarantee effective protection of fish, their critical habitat and other biodiversity;

Points out the need to support the actions undertaken in the framework of the reformed CFP in order

19.
to further the goals of the Commission's communication, particularly:

a)

the adoption of a decentralised approach which takes account of the specificity of particular fish species;

b) the development, in tandem with Regional Advisory Councils (RACs), of a decision-making process for
the application of technical measures in which specific requirements and locally appropriate measures
can be developed, implemented and monitored;

c)

the increase of technical and financial support through public aid to the RACs to enable them to contri-
bute appropriately to the achievement of this aim;

d) the development of scientific and technical research shared at Community level;

e)

the integration of environmentally friendly fishing rules in long-term management;

20. Underlines the importance of the Commission's communication, which should play a greater role in
sea governance in order to build a positive long-term future both for those whose livelihoods depend on
fishing and for the marine environment;

21.

Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council and the Commission.

Preparations for the European Council: the Lisbon Strategy

European Parliament resolution on the input to the Spring 2006 European Council in relation to the
Lisbon Strategy

The European Parliament,

— having regard to its resolution of 9 March 2005 on the mid-term review of the Lisbon Strategy (1),

— having regard to the Commission Communication of 12 April 2005 on the Integrated Guidelines for

Growth and Jobs (2005-2008) (COM(2005)0141),

— having regard to the Commission Communication of 20 July 2005 on Common Actions for Growth

and Employment: The Community Lisbon Programme (COM(2005)0330),

— having regard to the 25 national Lisbon reform programmes (NRPs) as presented by the Member States,

— having regard to the Commission's 2006 Annual Progress Report on Growth and Jobs of 25 January

2006,

— having regard to the Presidency conclusions of the Lisbon European Council of 23 and 24 March 2000,
the Stockholm European Council of 23 and 24 March 2001, the Barcelona European Council of 15 and
16 March 2002, and the Brussels European Councils of 22 and 23 March 2005 and 15 and
16 December 2005,

— having regard to conclusions of the Hampton Court informal Heads of State meeting of 27 October

2005,

— having regard to Rule 103(2) of its Rules of Procedure,

General observations

1.
Notes with satisfaction that the revised Lisbon Strategy, which was agreed by the Spring 2005 Euro-
pean Council, has led to the presentation by all Member States of national action plans, focusing on priority
areas such as R&D, innovation, and education; reiterates its satisfaction at the fact that this has led to the
clarification of competences at EU and national level as well as a better understanding of and cooperation in
this complex strategic approach;

2.
Stresses, however, that the effective and speedy implementation of NRPs is necessary; stresses that
economic growth requires, inter alia, a supportive economic framework; asks the Member States and the EU,
therefore, to assess whether tax systems, research and industrial policy set incentives appropriately and to
agree on a coherent EU investment strategy, focusing on the Commission's four proposed priorities, in par-
ticular, within that context, on R&D, innovation, education, life-long learning, and social services, as well as
the creation of an environment favourable to business;

3.
Insists that political commitment regarding the Commission's four priority areas is incompatible with
the Financial Perspective (2007-2013), which provides for major cuts in spending proposals on key Lisbon
Strategy programmes and budget headings;

NRPs and European growth and employment strategy

4.
Stresses the importance of accomplishing fully the internal market through its four core principles,
namely the free movement of capital, goods, persons and services; stresses in this context that the adoption
of the Services Directive (2) is crucial to opening up the EU's vast services market and contributing to a
strong European economy and long-term job creation in accordance with the revised Lisbon Strategy;

Takes the view that placing the emphasis on competitiveness and growth alone would be a mistake,

5.
because public support for the Lisbon Strategy presupposes a genuine social dimension;

6.
Is convinced that research, innovation, promotion of entrepreneurship, improving the competitiveness
of SMEs, and the provision of adequate transport, energy and telecommunications networks are key to deli-
vering the Lisbon Strategy at regional and local governance levels;

7.
Believes that the long-term stability and sustainability of public finances are a precondition for
achieving the aims of the Lisbon Strategy; calls on the EU to bring together its fragmented growth strategies
into a single coherent and comprehensive strategy, in order to make the EU a global leader in a new genera-
tion of products and production methods, integrating information and communication technologies and
resource-efficient technologies for sustainable development;

8. Welcomes the fact that many Member States' NRPs indicate plans for public-private partnerships,
whether in research, higher education, or other sectors;

9.
Points to the potential offered by eco-innovations and environmental technologies, for which global
demand is growing steadily, to foster growth and employment and, as regards employment, to shift the
burden of taxation from labour to resource use and environmental degradation; calls upon the Commission
and the Member States to explore these synergies and reduce environmentally hazardous subsidies;

Notes the diverse national approaches to the integrated guidelines taken in the NRPs; believes in the
10.
need to set a common structure as the basis for the NRPs, allowing a better comparative analysis of the
impact of the proposed actions at Member State level, as well as an open and constructive dialogue on the
progress achieved at EU level;

11.
Stresses that delaying action or a failure to address environmental challenges, is likely to be costly,
with negative effects on quality of life as well as the financial burden on future generations; calls on the
Commission, therefore, to intensify its work on identifying and quantifying the cost of inaction at Member
State and Community level, as well as on the positive effects of preventive action;

Believes that national parliaments are the appropriate forum in which to discuss,

legitimise and
12.
communicate national goals and to promote public debate, in order to define the NRPs; calls on the Council
and the Commission jointly to establish clear procedures for identifying legislation in need of simplification
or codification; calls, furthermore, on the Commission to come forward with a proposal, to be agreed with
the Parliament, for a strategy concerning how and where to apply co-regulation and voluntary agreements;

13.
Calls on the Member States to ensure the speedy and accurate transposition of EU legislation and the
effective implementation of the NRPs, including timely information to allow the European Parliament to
take follow-up action; believes that the budgetary impact of those measures should be evaluated; requests
that an independent impact assessment be conducted and that there be enhanced consultation of stake-
holders;

14.
Stresses the need to accelerate the simplification and consolidation of EU legislation and to put more
effort into the better regulation, prompt transposition and correct implementation of EU legislation; calls on
the Commission to consider the effective implementation of the 2003 Interinstitutional Agreement on
better law-making, including the development of appropriate mechanisms for stakeholder consultation, to
be a matter of priority;

15. Welcomes the clarification of the responsibilities and competences of the different institutional
economic and social actors at EU, national and regional levels, and believes this to be crucial for developing
a genuine sense of ownership as well as visibility and accountability among those involved; emphasises that
a solid institutional framework is the basis for increased trust among citizens; believes that successful experi-
ences should be highlighted and shared and that best practice should be encouraged; emphasises the need to
set a clear time-frame for the implementation and definition of targets, as well as an efficient monitoring
scheme; values fair competition as being a positive element in improving the EU's overall competitiveness,
wealth and high social standards;

16.
Believes that a well-functioning internal market and labour market safeguarding social and environ-
mental standards, are a vital means of freeing the EU's competitive potential, economic growth and job crea-
tion; calls upon the Member States to move as fast as possible towards total freedom of movement for
workers and other citizens within the EU and to undertake determined action to promote the quality of
work in all its aspects; attaches great importance to developing stronger actions against poverty and to
promotion social inclusion;

17.
Is deeply concerned about the actions of a growing number of national governments that seek to
take or have already taken defensive and protective measures in favour of national industries or companies;
considers these measures to be an assault on the basic principles of the internal market since they create
obstacles to the right of establishment of nationals of other Member States as well as to the free movement
of capital within the Community; calls on the Commission to be far more outspoken and unambiguous in
the defence of the internal market, including in the field of energy and financial services;

Believes also that unlocking the business potential of SMEs will create new opportunities to bring
18.
young people into business, strengthen innovation systems and encourage private-sector investment in
R&D;

Calls for a focused set of environmental pressure indicators to be included in the presentation and

19.
evaluation of NRPs and in the Commission and Council policy documents related to the Lisbon Strategy;

Notes that indicators are of crucial importance not only to assess but also to monitor policy action

20.
at national and EU level;

21.
Considers that the EU lacks the basic data needed to compare its overall economic, environmental
and social situation with those of other regions and countries, and requests that the Commission to bring
forward proposals for such overviews;

22.
Calls on the Commission to ensure that the EU structural funds are used in line with the Lisbon
Strategy to monitor systematically, in particular, European regions in order to track their performances as
regards the Lisbon Strategy goals, given that this information and statistical data make it possible for the
regions to establish effective benchmarks between them and consequently to define best practice;

23.
Recalls that the completion of the trans-European transport networks (TEN-T) will play a vital role in
fulfilling the targets set out in the Lisbon Strategy and that, in order to support this growth, the EU urgently
needs efficient, environmentally friendly and sustainable transport networks covering rail, road,
inland
waterway and maritime transport, as well as ports and airports; calls, therefore, on all parties involved to
ensure that the completion of the TEN-T becomes a reality;

24.
Deplores the fact that the European Council intends to cut back the appropriations for trans-Euro-
pean networks called for by Parliament under the next Financial Perspective; recommends using the possibi-
lities offered by the forthcoming launch of the Galileo system to improve electronic traffic flow manage-
ment, which will necessitate the gradual introduction of an electronic toll system, preventing congestion and
involving users in paying the real price of mobility;

Ageing population: demographic challenges

that,

Notes

in addition to providing new opportunities

25.
expectancy could give rise to inter-generational tensions because of social security and pension system
funding problems related to a rapid increase in the inactive population and a reduction in or, at best, the
stabilisation of, the active population; recognises that every Member State will have to make its own choices
concerning its social security and pension systems; observes that low economic growth, excessive debt and
high unemployment will dramatically accentuate this demographic challenge; concludes that, to minimise
the negative consequences of demographic change, it will be essential to implement the Lisbon Strategy in
full, to create an inclusive society based on the promotion of high employment, high productivity, innova-
tion and health;

societies,

for our

26.
Considers that demographic change will require new and enhanced educational and social infrastruc-
ture for young and elderly people alike, including increased facilities for life-long learning, affordable child-
care, nursing care and care for the elderly; reminds the Member States of the commitment that they entered
into at the Barcelona European Council in 2002, namely that by 2010 they would provide day-care places
for more than 33 % of children under the age of three and for 90 % of children between the age of three
and school starting age;

27.
Recalls that modernising the social framework across the EU is a political imperative; insists that it is
equally important to place the social dimension of our economies — social rights, social protection and the
social dialogue — at the core of how we ensure that people can face up to economic change with self-confi-
dence and ease; confirms that reforms must promote a dynamic and adaptable economy while safeguarding
employment security (flexicurity);

Takes the view that European society must seize the opportunity to utilise the expertise and skills of
28.
a generation of ‘senior citizens’; calls on the Commission and the Member States to develop ‘active ageing
strategies’, including measures to facilitate their integration, such as incentives to introduce a more gradual
shift from work to retirement; requests the Commission to disseminate the best practices of Member States
regarding preparing for retirement and moving into new, freely chosen areas of activity;

29.
Considers that, in order to attain the Lisbon Strategy goals, suitable measures should be taken for the
elderly generations to be able to cope with technological innovations, avoid finding themselves in a position
of vulnerability and social exclusion and be more actively involved in the labour market;

Calls on the Commission to relaunch its strategy for new sources of jobs, in particular by inviting
30.
Member States to promote local community-based services, social services, personal services, cultural
services and environmental professions; takes the view that unbureaucratic initiatives along the lines of the
French service-voucher scheme are likely to create many new jobs and indeed eliminate undeclared working;

31.
Calls on Member States to act vigorously to identify all obstacles to birth rate growth, including
obstacles outside the work place, such as tax policies, access to the housing market, childcare, and shopping
hours; stresses the need to promote flexible working hours, enabling the combination of work and family
life, which should not be the corollary of abandoning one's career, but should result from free choice; under-
lines that a healthy environment and the promotion of health in general are key elements for long-term
economic growth and social welfare;

32.
Stresses that, apart from the issue of the ageing population, a fundamental problem of solidarity
between generations exists in all those Member States that finance current public expenditure by borrowing;
insists that the concept of sustainable development must be understood as precluding the imposition on
future generations of an unaffordable debt burden; underlines the need for a long-term perspective, in which
we ought to avoid further burdening the young and future generations with excessive financial debt;

33.
Considers that the healthcare aspects of demographic change are of extreme importance and need to
be addressed from both a human and a financial perspective; emphasises that, because of ageing popula-
tions, the demand for health and long-term care services is increasing;
is convinced that investment in
measures for preventing long-term illness is important; recalls that the longer people enjoy good health, the
longer they can remain active and work;

Wednesday, 15 March 2006

34.
Considers that immigration policies should promote the successful economic, social and legal integra-
tion of migrants, with a view to alleviating Europe's demographic challenge, but recognises that this in itself
will not resolve all the questions related to demographic change; considers that a successful policy of legal
immigration also depends on the implementation of a comprehensive and pro-active strategy to achieve full
integration, covering a range of social, economic and civic measures, induction programmes and language
training;

35.
Points out that immigration policies that give priority to skilled workers also weaken the economies
of the countries of origin of those immigrants, and such labour movements are only capable of solving the
challenges of demographic change in the short term; points out, nevertheless, that there should be a detailed
assessment of the impact of immigration policies that prioritise skilled workers on the economies of their
countries of origin;

Innovation and research, intellectual property rights (IPRs), and life-long learning

Believes that innovation is one of the main cornerstones of wealth creation, growth and jobs, that it
36.
strengthens the EU's competitiveness and that it contributes to achieving the overall policy of sustainable
development;

37.
Believes that the EU and Member State budgets should give effect and fully translate to the Lisbon
Strategy priorities by significantly reinforcing the EU's innovation and research capacity and by expanding
life-long learning, including the use of new financial instruments; insists, however, on focusing such policies
on areas of general interest;

Encourages the Commission to propose pilot projects in the field of R&D that would allow the crea-

38.
tion of an EU perspective and develop European thinking in this field;

39.
Notes that the public sector is lagging behind the Lisbon Strategy objectives for R&D, and that, in
general, the private sector is also a long way from meeting the target of investing 2 % of GDP in R&D; calls,
therefore, on the private sector to step up its efforts to meet its part of the 3 % objective;

40.
Notes that medium-sized companies in particular are not investing enough in research; calls on the
Member States to maximise their efforts to encourage innovation by medium-sized enterprises, but also by
the EU's 20 million small businesses, which are spearheading economic growth and job creation in Europe;
considers improved access for SMEs to the seventh framework programme of the European Community for
research, technological development and demonstration activities (2007-2013)
(FP7) as crucial to the
strengthening of SMEs' capacity to create jobs;

Notes that the fact that Europe is lagging behind Japan and the USA in research and development is
41.
reflected in the imbalance in the proportion of researchers working in the private sector (80 % in the USA
as opposed to 50 % in Europe); calls for measures to improve the mobility of researchers and provide better
infrastructure in order to attract more students to scientific careers; insists that universities must be able to
invest their know-how in new companies (start-ups) and acquire additional resources from patents and
licences (‘capital building licensing’);

42.
Calls for measures to equip EU universities in order to meet the highest standards of research, to
strengthen cooperation between universities and the industrial and commercial sectors, and to ensure better
communication, dissemination and application of the outcomes of research;

43.
Considers life-long learning to be a necessity; considers also that, to ensure that EU industry is
competitive, the quality of education and training systems must be reinforced at various stages of life and
access to higher education must be facilitated; believes that education and training systems must target those
areas where the EU is lacking skilled people and must respond to the requirements and gaps of a rapidly
changing labour market and technological society;

Calls on the Member States to focus first and foremost on the school drop-out rate at primary and
44.
secondary level and to improve what is on offer as regards education and continuing learning; notes huge
differences between Member States;

45.
Considers that the number of Internet users is constantly increasing; takes the view that all young
Europeans must have the possibility of mastering electronic tools; calls on the Member States to ensure that,
by 2010 at the latest, a computer is available to every pupil in the EU, information technology is fully inte-
grated in school programmes and the take-up and effective use of such programmes are universal
in
schools:

46.
Stresses the need to reform the current IPR legislation; notes that the cost of registering a patent in
the EU varies between 37 500 euro and 57 000 euro while the same process costs only around
10 000 euro in the USA and that the length and notes complexity of the patent procedures are major obsta-
cles to SMEs; calls on the Commission to ensure proper protection of IPRs and to present, as soon as
possible, a proposal for the harmonisation of patent laws in Member States in order to create greater legal
certainty and promote innovation;

47.
Strongly supports the Commission's first Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme
(2007-2013) (CIP) and stresses that objectives, actions and financial means are inseparably linked in the
context of a credible commitment to the Lisbon Strategy; calls on the Commission to make the CIP a
successful cornerstone of the EU's innovation policy; stresses the need to reinforce the CIP's financial instru-
ments operated by the European Investment Fund, to enhance SME finance with venture capital and guaran-
tees, and to extend its activities to the financing of technology transfer; highlights the fact that Parliament
identified innovation as a core priority in the Financial Perspective and calls on the European Council not to
ignore this ongoing pledge;

Notes that, of the world's 20 largest biotechnology enterprises, 19 are American and 1 is Swiss and
48.
notes that the EU can no longer afford to fall further behind in this area; calls on the Commission to apply
the principle of subsidiarity also in the area of research, and to support fundamental research in all Member
States;

Energy policies

49.
Considers that a coherent and efficient energy policy is essential for economic growth in the EU and
for the durable prosperity of EU citizens; notes, in particular, that energy security constitutes a strategic
responsibility in view of the EU's dependence on third-country imports; and insists that measures be taken
to ensure a secure long-term balance between supply and demand;

50.
Agrees with the conclusions of the Hampton Court informal Heads of State meeting in October
2005 that a shared view on a strategy for security of supply should respect Member States' geographical,
economic, regional, climate and structural differences, promote further market opening in the EU, be consis-
tent with sustainable development as well as climate change commitments within the energy sector, and add
value over action by individual Member States;

30.11.2006

EN

Official Journal of the European Union

C 291 E/327

51.
Calls on the Commission, in view of the Hampton Court conclusions, to ask it to develop a revita-
lised Community energy policy and to expedite its drafting of proposals on the subject; calls on the
Commission to take much more determined action to ensure competitive, low and non-CO2-emitting energy
sources and environmentally friendly supplies of energy, sufficiently diversified to avoid over-dependence on
a single form of energy;

Wednesday, 15 March 2006

52.
Calls on the Commission to react strongly to the market dominance and market imperfections
described in DG Competition's findings of its Energy Sector enquiry, published on 16 February 2006, and
to come forward with new proposals on how to combat market dominance and market imperfections with
a concrete set of actions and instruments;

53.
Looks forward, therefore, to the Spring 2006 European Council discussions on energy issues, which
should lead, in particular, to concrete actions in the field of energy saving, resource efficiency, and further
promotion of renewable energy, thereby also contributing to the greenhouse gas emission reduction targets
of the Kyoto Protocol and beyond;

54.
Considers that the fight against climate change is creating economic and social opportunities which
can help to bolster the sustainable development strategy — the third pillar of the Lisbon Strategy; considers
that the evolution of the Kyoto framework after 2012 requires active consideration now to allow the
markets to take into account the cost of carbon in major investment programmes;

Insists that R&D and innovation in the energy field should remain a priority; calls for a long-term
55.
commitment by Member States to increased funding for R&D and to the creation of a European Energy
Research Area; recognises that a change in approach to energy use should lead to a reduction by some 20 %
of energy consumption in the EU, with no approach being ruled out as a matter of course;

56.
Stresses, therefore, that the EU should invest significant resources in developing cleaner and more
efficient technologies, such as clean carbon and CO2 sequestration, new energy sources and improved
nuclear safety, inter alia, in search of technological breakthroughs;

Calls on the Commission, in view of the EU's very substantial wind energy potential, especially along

57.
the coasts most exposed to sea winds, to have an assessment made of this potential;

58.
Notes the considerable potential for energy efficiency gains, reductions in polluting emissions and a
world-wide market for new equipment and systems from clean coal technology, and calls on industry and
the FP7 to achieve a successful demonstration of clean coal power systems;

59.
Calls for increased efforts to ensure that Member States implement existing legislation on the internal
energy market and that the established targets for renewable energy, biofuels and energy efficiency are met
fully; welcomes the proposed directive on energy end-use efficiency and energy services (COM(2003)0739)
and calls for its speedy and consistent implementation throughout the EU;

Considers that increased investments in cleaner and more efficient technology are crucial and that the
60.
EU could also benefit greatly by exporting these technologies to countries whose exponential increase in
energy consumption will force them to invest considerable amounts in efficiency improvements;

61.
Calls on the Commission and the Council to offer wide-ranging cooperation on energy policy to all
countries consuming high volumes of oil and natural gas, starting with the US, Japan, China and India; takes
the view that such cooperation could ease tensions concerning oil and natural gas pricing, in particular if a
code of conduct would not only eliminate rivalries in the major production regions, but would also, simulta-
neously, lead to an exchange of best technologies with regard to energy savings, energy efficiency and envir-
onmentally friendly energy sources;

C 291 E/328

62.
Recalls that the EU possesses globally acknowledged expertise in the area of nuclear energy, which is
one possible response to energy dependence and climate change; notes that this expertise relates, inter alia,
to the efficiency and quality of production installations, and to decommissioning processes (‘decommis-
sioning to greenfield’, in IAEA terminology);

63.
Recognises the role that nuclear energy currently plays in maintaining security of electricity supply,
constituting a significant part of the energy mix and avoiding an estimated 312 million tonnes of CO2 emis-
sions per year, that is, 7 % of total greenhouse gas emissions in the EU; points out that current estimates
project a 12 % increase in EU CO2 emissions by 2020, which is well short of the Kyoto target 8 % reduc-
tion;

64.
Is aware that long-term energy security is not possible without the economically and ecologically
meaningful development of renewable energies; calls on the Commission to establish market-based incen-
tives in order to make renewable energies economic as rapidly as possible; calls on the Commission to help
expand the use of hydrogen as an environmentally friendly and sustainable energy source; and on a long-
term basis thereby to reduce dependence on politically unstable exporting countries; realises that renewable
energy systems can technically provide a limited percentage of energy supply;

65.
Encourages the Commission, when evaluating the energy question, to consider it from different
perspectives, such as the energy mix, market evolution, investment, research funds, as well as to consider the
possibility of creating and developing a system providing an exchange of information between Member
States;

66.
Considers that the lack of interconnections between Member States' infrastructures is a barrier to the
single market and calls on the Member States to complete the trans-European energy networks in order to
tackle this problem; considers that, at national level, Member States should ensure that generation plants are
as evenly distributed across their territory and as close to the main consumption points as possible;

67. Welcomes with interest the integrated approach followed by High-Level Group CARS21 as well as its
conclusions, and expects the Commission to be guided by the road map adopted by CARS21 with a view to
submitting proposals promptly to reduce pollutant emissions from light-duty and heavy-duty vehicles, in
particular through improvements to vehicle technology, such as the development of hybrid vehicles, and the
use of second-generation biofuels, derivable from a wide variety of raw materials; calls on the Member States
to be guided by Sweden's initiative to make it compulsory for all service stations to sell biofuels;

Believes that EU agriculture could find new markets thanks to the promotion of the crops being used

68.
to produce biofuel, which will contribute indirectly to the maintenance of food safety in Europe;

69.
Draws attention also to existing examples in the EU of the use of biomass for heating and electrical
supply, which highlight capacity of alternative energies and the inter-relation among energy, environment
and agriculture, for the ultimate benefit of citizens and their quality of life as well as the economic sectors
involved, in the framework of sustainable development;

70.
Stresses the importance of fully accomplishing the internal market with well-functioning and non-
discriminatory competition and pursuing the liberalisation of energy markets by 2007, as agreed by Member
States;

71.

Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council and the Commission.
