Elmar Brok moved an oral amendment to amendment 16, which now read as follows:

‘30a. Stresses that the Turkish refusal to fully comply with the terms of the Additional Protocol is seriously
endangering the good progress of the accession negotiations; points out that the Council decision not
to open the negotiations on eight important chapters covering policy areas relevant to Turkey's restric-
tions as regards the Republic of Cyprus and not to close provisionally any chapters is an unavoidable
consequence of Turkey's position on this issue; urges Turkey to cooperate in a constructive way to
ensure full implementation of the Additional Protocol as soon as possible; welcomes in this respect
the invitation addressed to the Commission to submit yearly reports on progress made in addressing
the issues covered by the EU declaration of 21 September 2005;’

Giorgos Dimitrakopoulos moved an oral amendment to amendment 17, which now read as follows:

‘31. Sincerely deplores the fact that the efforts of the Finnish Presidency to find a solution to the current
stalemate regarding the full implementation of the Additional Protocol on the one hand and further
alleviating the isolation of Turkish Cypriots who live in the northern part of the island on the other
hand were not successful; calls on the German Presidency to continue these efforts with determination;’

Joost Lagendijk also moved an oral amendment to amendment 17 to include the words

‘in close cooperation with renewed UN efforts’.

The PPE-DE Group had agreed to amendment 29 as an addition.

Commission Statement on Alternative Methods

As part of the Community's strategy to promote alternative test methods, the development of methods
covering computer supported, in vitro and other methodologies, including refinement of current methods,
has been a priority for decades. Between 1999 and 2002 (Fifth Framework Programme), the EU supported
43 research projects worth 65 million euro, several of which are still ongoing. In the current Research Frame-
work Programme (Sixth Framework Programme: 2003-2006), the European Union is investing more than
90 million euro to develop robust, effective, non-animal testing methods that will withstand the requirements
of international validation.

Research activities will continue in the forthcoming Seventh Framework Programme (2007-2013) through
coordinated activities on alternative methods and strategies for safety testing focused on pharmaceuticals
(under the Health theme) and industrial chemicals (under the Environment theme). Consideration has been
given to which methods could make the most contribution to reducing animal testing within REACH,
taking due account of the time needed to develop tests and the relevant registration deadlines in REACH. As
a result, the Seventh Framework Programme includes the development of methods that could directly
support the reduction of the use of animals in testing within REACH. Involvement of stakeholders is being
sought through initiatives such as the European Partnership for Alternative Approaches to Animal Testing,
launched on 7 November 2005 by Commissioners Potocnik and Verheugen together with industry. By effec-
tively pooling Commission and industry experience, expertise and resources, a common coordinated Part-
nership at EU level and across sectors will be more effective than historically fragmented initiatives in this
area.

The validation of alternative testing methods has been a priority for the Commission since 1991. To this
end, the Commission set up the European Centre for the Validation of Alternative Methods (ECVAM), a
specific unit within the Joint Research Centre with the task of coordinating the validation of alternative test
methods at European Union level, and promoting the development, validation and international recognition
of alternative test methods. The Commission will continue to validate appropriate methods and will consider
the application of validated methods in Community legislation. Today, suitable methods are used in the
context of the Community legislation on chemicals, to adapt Annex V of Directive 67/548/EEC. The
Commission recognises the importance of securing regulatory acceptance for such methods as rapidly as
possible and has adopted several validated alternative test methods in Annex V of Directive 67/548/EEC
ahead of their eventual international acceptance. The Commission will give a high priority to ensuring that
the REACH testing regulation is adapted as soon as possible after appropriate validated methods become
available.

The Commission will continue to be active in international fora, particularly the OECD where it contributes
to the development of new standards for tests and with especial focus on newly validated methods as
mentioned above.

The regulatory framework in which test methods are used is as important as the specific methods. Since its
very beginning, the minimisation of animal testing has been a key element of the design of REACH and the
Commission has consistently worked to improve this aspect of the proposal. This can be seen in terms of
significant changes throughout the process such as adding the pre-registration phase as a result of feedback
on the White Paper in 2001 and accepting a single pre-registration date as proposed in both Parliament's
First Reading Opinion and the Council Common Position. Minimisation of animal testing is also apparent in
the detailed legislative text,
including encouragement for grouping of substances, evaluation of testing
proposals and use of read across. Important work related to reducing the use of animals is on-going in the
testing strategies. The
RIPs
Commission is committed to continuing this work after the adoption of REACH. For example the develop-
ment and maintenance of guidelines and Agency procedures will offer further opportunities to address
concerns over animal testing.

(REACH Implementation Projects) with the development of

intelligent

The Commission will also consider relevant aspects in the review of Directive 86/609/EEC, specifically in
relation to the ways in which the development, validation and regulatory acceptance of alternative methods
in accordance with the ‘Three Rs’ principle could be further promoted.

Commission Statement on tobacco additives in the context of the
negotiations on REACH and addressing the EP amendments on tobacco
additives

Wednesday, 13 December 2006

The REACH Regulation covers chemical ingredients in tobacco products like any other chemical substance.
As such, they will need to be registered and be subject to evaluation, restriction or authorisation under the
REACH system. Some of their effects in burnt form should be covered by any required chemical safety
assessments.

Once the REACH system is in operation, it will be necessary to summarise and to take into account the
information made available under REACH on tobacco ingredients in order to benefit better from the syner-
gies with the ongoing work in the context of Directive 2001/37/EC on the approximation of the laws,
regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States concerning the manufacture, presentation
and sale of tobacco products.

In the context of Directive 2001/37/EC, the Commission is committed to promote:

— the development and application of a harmonised reporting format for tobacco ingredients in order to
create a precondition for systematic assessment of tobacco ingredients. This could evolve, at a later stage,
into the setting up of a European data bank on tobacco ingredients and their effects;

— the assessment of tests for toxicological and addictive effects from a public health perspective;

— cooperation of independent tobacco laboratories within the EU in order to create the operational basis
for a shared analysis and assessment of
smoke emissions by the
Member States, and subsequent consideration on the form of a possible proposal for a common list of
ingredients.

tobacco ingredients and/or

The Commission will also:

— participate in the process of developing guidelines on testing and measuring of the contents and emis-
sions of tobacco products in the context of the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC), and

— consider co-financing research on toxicity and in particular addictiveness of tobacco ingredients and/or

smoke emissions in the context of the Research Framework Programme.

By the next review of Directive 2001/37/EC, which will be based on the report on its implementation due
at the end of 2007, the Commission will consider further development of the framework for the assessment
of tobacco ingredients in the light of the experience gathered and impact assessments on different options.

The burden of proof on the health effects of the contents and emissions of tobacco products should lie fully
with the industry, which should be responsible for the financing of the development, validation and carrying
out of the appropriate toxicological and addictiveness tests. This process must be led by the public health
authorities to ensure that all the methodologies developed properly address public health concerns.

On the basis of the principle established in the previous paragraph concerning the role of the industry in
financing the tests, the Commission will examine the concrete options for raising adequate human and
financial resources in order to fund any substantial work programme on evaluating ingredients and smoke
emissions in order to assess properly the results from a health perspective.

The Commission is aware that the development and validation of methodologies and the evaluation of
substances is a demanding task that will take several years.

Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 (2), hereinafter ‘the Financial Regulation’, lays
down the legal foundations of the financial management reform. As such, its essential elements
should be maintained and strengthened. Transparency,
in particular, should be reinforced by
providing for information on beneficiaries of Community funds. Moreover, the budgetary principles
established by the Financial Regulation should be respected by all legislative acts and derogations
should be kept to a strict minimum.

In the light of practical experience, certain amendments should be made 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, in accordance with the principle of proportionality as set out in the third sub-
paragraph of Article 5 of the EC Treaty.

All amendments should contribute to achieving the objectives of the Commission's reforms and
help improve or ensure sound financial management, thus contributing to obtaining a reasonable
assurance of the legality and regularity of financial operations.

Account should be taken of provisions implementing the revenue and expenditure of the budget,
contained in the basic legal acts adopted for the period 2007 to 2013, in order to ensure coher-
ence between those acts and the Financial Regulation.

It should be clarified that sound financial management requires effective and efficient internal
control, and the main features and objectives of internal control systems should be defined.

In order to ensure the transparency of the use of funds deriving from the budget, it is necessary to
make available information on the beneficiaries of these funds within certain limits necessary to
protect legitimate public and private interests and taking into account the specificity of European
Agricultural Guarantee Fund year.

As regards the principle of unity of the budget, the rule governing interest generated by pre-finan-
cing should be simplified. The administrative burden involved in the recovery of that interest is
disproportionate to the objective pursued and it would be more efficient to allow interest to be set
off against the final payment to the beneficiary.

With regard to the principle of annuality, more flexibility and transparency should be introduced
to respond to functional needs. The carry-over of appropriations should exceptionally be permitted
in the case of expenditure on direct payments to farmers under the new European Agricultural
Guarantee Fund (EAGF).

Payment requests from the Member States under the new agricultural regulations will be concen-
trated overwhelmingly at the beginning of the budget year n. Therefore, the maximum threshold
for advance commitments against the EAGF (from 15 November of year n – 1) to cover routine
management expenditure (charged to the budget of year n) should be increased to three quarters of
corresponding appropriations in the last adopted agricultural budget. As regards the limit on
advance commitment of administrative expenditure, the text should be amended so that it refers to
appropriations decided by the budget authority, excluding therefore transfers of appropriations.

The use of non-differentiated appropriations for veterinary measures, charged against the EAGF,
unduly hampers the implementation of such actions, especially in respect of the limits placed on
the possibilities for carry-overs. The use of differentiated appropriations for such expenditure
should therefore be permitted, as this is more in keeping with the multi-annual nature of the
actions.

As regards the principle of universality, two points should be added to the list of assigned revenue.
First, as is currently possible under specific research programmes, it should be possible for the
Member States to make ad hoc contributions, as assigned revenue, for projects under external rela-
tions programmes managed by the Commission. Secondly, proceeds from the sale of vehicles,
equipment, installations, materials, and scientific and technical apparatus which are being replaced
or scrapped should be treated as assigned revenue, as an encouragement to authorising officers to
obtain the best prices for their disposal.

At present, the Commission must be authorised by the budgetary authority before accepting any
donations, such as gifts or bequests, which involve a charge. To avoid unnecessary and cumber-
some procedures, authorisations should be made compulsory only in the case of donations
exceeding a certain value and involving significant charges.

The rules governing transfers of appropriations should be simplified and clarified on certain points
because in practice they have proved cumbersome or unclear.

For reasons of efficiency, the Commission should be allowed to decide autonomously on transfers
from the reserve in cases where no basic act 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.

The rules on the Commission's administrative transfers
should be adapted to the new
Activity-Based Budgeting (ABB) structure. Thus, an exemption from the ‘notification procedure’
should be foreseen. During the last month of the financial year, the Commission should be allowed
to decide autonomously on transfers of appropriations concerning staff expenditure, within the
limit of 3 % of the appropriations of the year.

Articles 26, 45 and 46 of the Financial Regulation should be amended because of the abolition of
the reserve relating to Community loans and loan guarantees to third countries and the adoption
of a new provisioning mechanism for the Guarantee Fund for external actions.

In order to accelerate the mobilisation of funds in exceptional cases of international humanitarian
disasters and crises occurring at the end of the budgetary year, the Commission should be allowed
to autonomously transfer unused budgetary appropriations available under Heading 4 of the multi-
annual financial framework to the budget titles concerned.

As regards the budget procedure, the requirement laid down in Article 29 of
the Financial
Regulation that the budget be published within two months of adoption has proven unrealistic:
three months would be more practicable. The concept of ‘Activity Statement’ should be inserted in
Article 33 of the Financial Regulation in order to render official one of the key elements of ABB,
and their content should be defined more precisely in order to make them operational. The
payment schedules should be included in the working documents accompanying the preliminary
draft budget listed in Article 33 of the Financial Regulation instead of in the budget itself, as they
are not relevant to the budgetary procedure and are unnecessarily burdensome.

As regards the implementation of the budget, some adjustments appear necessary in order to
better reflect the specific features of the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP). For reasons
of legal clarity, the types of basic acts applicable under the EC Treaty and under Title V and VI of
the TEU should be identified in Article 49 of the Financial Regulation instead of in the imple-
menting rules. In addition, a specific provision should be added in order to properly reflect the
types of preparatory measures that may be undertaken in the field of the CFSP.

Wednesday, 13 December 2006

As regards methods of management, Article 53 of the Financial Regulation should be restructured
for the purpose of clarity. It is also necessary to remove the limitation of shared management to
the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund (EAGGF) and Structural Funds, because
additional programmes will now operate under shared management. The requirements for joint
management need to be made clearer. Article 54(2)(b) should be completed to include in particular
the European Investment Bank and the European Investment Fund as Community bodies to which
tasks can be delegated by the Commission. The criteria set out in Article 54 of the Financial
Regulation for using national public-sector bodies should be simplified in order to facilitate their
use and to respond to growing operational needs, and the scope of the provision should be
extended to international public bodies. Article 54 should also clarify the position of special advi-
sors or heads of mission appointed by the Council to manage certain actions in the context of the
common foreign and security policy.

The responsibilities of the Member States under shared management should be set out in more
detail, to take account of the ongoing discussions between the institutions concerning the discharge
procedure and the appropriate control systems to put in place, reflecting the mutual responsibilities
of
the Member States and the Commission. Following the new interinstitutional agreement
(point 44), Member States should be obliged to produce an annual summary of the available audits
and declarations in relation to the funds under shared management.

The prohibition on delegating implementation tasks to private bodies should be modified in
Article 57 of the Financial Regulation because the terms of that prohibition have turned out to be
unnecessarily strict. It should be possible, for example, for the Commission to engage the services
of a travel agency or a conference organiser to take charge of reimbursing the costs of participants
at conferences, provided that no discretionary powers are exercised by the private company.

(23)

The establishment by several institutions of joint financial irregularities panels should be made
possible.

(24)

(25)

(26)

The accounting officer's responsibility for certifying the accounts on the basis of the financial infor-
mation supplied to him by the authorising officers should be clarified. To this end, the accounting
officer should be empowered to check the information received by the authorising officer by dele-
gation and to enter reservations, if necessary.

The relationship between the Commission's internal auditor and bodies set up by the Communities
should be clarified. Those bodies should have their own internal audit function reporting to their
own management boards, whereas the Commission's internal auditor reports to the College on the
procedures and systems of the Commission. It should be necessary for the Commission's internal
auditor only to confirm that the bodies' internal audit functions meet international standards, and
for that purpose he should be able to conduct assessments of the quality of the internal audit
activity.

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 limita-
tion in the pursuit of its claims against third persons. The introduction of such a period of limita-
tion corresponds to sound financial management.

The Financial Regulation should reflect the importance of framework contracts in the management
of public procurement. It should encourage the use of interinstitutional procurement procedures
joint procurement procedures between an institution and a
and allow for the possibility of
contracting authority from a Member State.

Certain technical adjustments should be made to ensure that the terminology of the Financial
Regulation is fully in line with that of Directive 2004/18/EC of the European Parliament and of the
Council of 31 March 2004 on the coordination of procedures for the award of public works
contracts, public supply contracts and public service contracts (1). The possibility open to Member
States under that Directive to determine specific procedures for contracts declared secret, when
their performance must be accompanied by special security measures, or when the protection of
the Member State so requires should be made available to the Community institutions.

In line with Directive 2004/18/EC, the rules on exclusion from a procurement procedure need to
be clarified. In addition, for reasons of legal certainty and proportionality, a maximum period of
exclusion should be specified in the Financial Regulation. In the light of Directive 2004/18/EC, an
exception to the rules on exclusion should be made for the purchase of supplies on particularly
advantageous terms from either a supplier which is definitively winding up its business activities,
or the receivers or liquidators of a bankruptcy, an arrangement with creditors, or a similar proce-
dure under national law.

It should be made obligatory under Article 93 of the Financial Regulation for candidates or
tenderers in procurement procedures to certify, if so requested, the ownership or the management,
control and power of representation of the legal entity submitting a tender or that their subcontrac-
tors are not in one of the situations referred to in Article 93 of the Financial Regulation. Tenderers
should not be required to certify that they are not in one of the situations giving rise to exclusion
when they participate in a procurement procedure for the award of very low-value contracts.

In order to enhance the effectiveness of procurement procedures, the database of candidates or
tenderers in situations of exclusion should be common to the institutions, executive agencies and
bodies referred to in Article 185.

In order to take account of the interests of unsuccessful tenderers, it is appropriate to provide that
a contract covered by Directive 2004/18/EC cannot be signed before the end of a reasonable stand-
still period.

The obligations of the institutions to suspend a procurement procedure or a contract under
Article 103 in cases of fraud and irregularities should be clarified in order to make this provision
more operational.

As regards grants, simplification of the rules is needed. Requirements for checks and guarantees
should be more proportionate to the financial risks involved. The definition of grants needs to be
clarified, in particular as regards financing related to loan activities or shareholdings and expendi-
ture relating to fisheries markets. To improve the management of grants and to simplify procedures,
it should be possible to award grants either by a decision of the institution or by a written agree-
ment with the beneficiary.

For reasons of clarity and transparency, the use of lump sum and flat-rate payments should be
authorised alongside the more traditional method of reimbursing costs actually incurred.

For reasons of legal clarity, the exceptions to the non-profit rule which are currently provided for
in the implementing rules should be included in the Financial Regulation. Furthermore, it should
be made clear that the purpose of awarding grants to certain actions is to help reinforce financial
capacity or generate an income.

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 cases the nature of the action leaves no choice in
the selection of beneficiaries which should thus be exempted from this rule.

Wednesday, 13 December 2006

The rule that the same action should not give rise to more than one grant to any one beneficiary
should be adjusted. Some basic legal acts do permit Community funding from different sources to
be combined, and such cases may increase in future in order to ensure the effectiveness of expendi-
ture. However, it should be made clear in Article 111 of the Financial Regulation that the same
costs cannot be financed twice by the Community budget.

(39)

The rule that the agreement on an operating grant may not be signed more than four months after
the start of the beneficiary's financial year has proven unnecessarily rigid. This deadline should thus
be extended to six months.

(40)

For reasons of simplification, in the case of operating grants taking the form of lump-sums or
flat-rate financing, the rule that grants shall gradually decrease should be removed.

(41)

(42)

(43)

(44)

(45)

(46)

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. In line with the principle
of proportionality, for very low-value grants, the authorising officer may refrain from requesting
applicants to certify that they are not in one of the situations of exclusion under Articles 93, 94 or
96 of the Financial Regulation.

While grants will continue to be awarded on the basis of selection and award criteria, there is no
need in practice to have those criteria evaluated by a committee specifically set up for that purpose,
and that requirement should therefore be removed.

As regards the procurement standards to be applied by beneficiaries of grants, the current rule in
Article 120 is unclear and needs to be simplified. Moreover, the case in which the implementation
of an action necessitates financial support to third parties should be expressly provided for.

As regards the rules on accounting and the accounts, Article 121 of the Financial Regulation
should make it possible for the Commission's accounting officer to determine, in compliance with
international standards, which other bodies in addition to those receiving Community subsidies fall
within the scope of the consolidation,
it being understood that the consolidation of accounts
neither entails any transfer of funds from self-financed bodies to the general budget of the Euro-
pean Union nor influences their financial and operational autonomy and the discharge procedures
for their accounts.

In view of the coming into existence of the EAGF, which replaces the EAGGF from 2007, termi-
nology needs to be adjusted in title of Title I of Part Two, and in Articles 26 and 148 to 151, of
the Financial Regulation. Clarification is required in Article 151 to the effect that provisional
commitments may be made after the normal two-month deadline following receipt of the Member
States' statements of expenditure in cases where a decision on a transfer of appropriations is
expected. Article 153 concerning transfers needs clarification.

In Title II of Part Two and Article 155, the terminology should be adjusted so that reference is
made only to the structural funds, the cohesion fund, the fisheries fund and the rural development
fund. References to pre-accession structural measures (ISPA) and agricultural measures (SAPARD)
should be removed, since they involve management by third countries on a decentralised basis in
accordance with Article 164 and will continue to be implemented largely in the same way as at
present. As regards the making available again of decommitted appropriations, in line with the new
basic acts for structural actions in the period 2007 to 2013 which cover the case of force majeure,
provision should be maintained in the Financial Regulation only for cases where a manifest error is
attributable to the Commission.

In Article 160 of the Financial Regulation, a provision needs to be added to cover the assigned
revenue generated by the winding-up of the European Coal and Steel Community and the making
available of the corresponding appropriations.

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.

As regards external actions, it should be clarified that, in line with existing practice, the grant
procedures to be applied by third countries in the case of decentralised management have to be
specified in the financing agreements concluded with those countries. It should be specified that
the ‘n + 3 rule’ according to which individual contracts and agreements which implement such
financing agreements have to be concluded no later than three years following the date of conclu-
sion of the financing agreement shall apply. Specific rules should be foreseen for the case of decen-
tralised management of multi-annual programmes under Council Regulations (EC) … (IPA and
ENPI).

It should be made possible for the institutions to delegate authorising officer power to directors of
inter-institutional European Offices for the management of appropriations entered in their respec-
tive sections of the budget, in order to facilitate management. While their content should remain
unchanged, Articles 171, 173 and 176 of the Financial Regulation should be slightly re-structured
in order to clarify the sub-delegation of authorising powers by the directors of Offices.

The procedure under which the budgetary authority may issue an opinion on a building project
should be clarified.

Successive framework research programmes have facilitated the work of the Commission by laying
down simplified rules for the selection of external experts for evaluation of proposals or grant
applications and technical assistance for the follow-up and evaluation of projects funded. This
procedure should be made available in respect of all other programmes.

Transitional provisions should be added. First, in Article 181(1), as regards the making available
again of decommitted appropriations corresponding to commitments made during the 2000-2006
Structural Funds programming period, the case of force majeure should continue to be applied as
provided in the Financial Regulation of 25 June 2002 until the closure of the assistance. This is in
order to avoid disruption of the current system since force majeure is treated differently in the new
Regulation governing the Structural Funds. Second, in Article 181(2), to deal with the implementa-
tion of the provisions on the central database for exclusion from participation in procurement and
grant procedures. Finally, in Article 181(3) to deal with the outstanding Community commitments
to be financially settled in order to close the assistance provided for in the Regulations governing
the Structural Funds and the Cohesion Fund for the 2000-2006 programming period. For the
appropriations concerning operational expenditure, the possibility for the Commission to make
transfers from one title to another must be preserved, provided that the appropriations in question
are for the same objective. Similarly, the Commission may continue to make transfers from one
title to another when the appropriations in question relate to Community initiatives or technical
assistance and innovative measures, provided that they are transferred to measures of the same
nature. This means for instance transferring appropriations relating to one Community initiative to
another, in a different title.

(53)

Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(25) Article 49 is replaced by the following:

‘Article 49

A basic act shall first be adopted before the appropriations entered in the budget for any action

1.
by the Communities or by the European Union may be used.

A basic act is a legal act which provides a legal basis for the action and for the implementation of the
corresponding expenditure entered in the budget.

2.
In application of the EC Treaty and the Euratom Treaty, a basic act is an act adopted by the
legislative authority and may take the form of a regulation, a directive, a decision within the meaning
of Article 249 of the EC Treaty or a decision sui generis.

3.
In application of Title V of the TEU (concerning Common Foreign and Security Policy — CFSP),
a basic act may take one of the forms specified in Articles 13(2) and (3), 14, 18(5), 23(1) and (2) and
24 of the TEU.

In application of Title VI of the TEU (concerning Police and Judicial Cooperation in Criminal

4.
Matters), a basic act may take one of the forms referred to in Article 34(2) of the TEU.

Recommendations and opinions do not constitute basic acts within the meaning of this article,

nor do resolutions, conclusions, declarations or other acts which have no legal effects.

By way derogation of paragraphs 1 to 4, the following may be implemented without a basic act
the

Communities or the European Union:

(a) appropriations for pilot schemes of an experimental nature designed to test the feasibility of an
action and its usefulness. The relevant commitment appropriations may be entered in the budget
for only two successive financial years;

(b) appropriations for preparatory actions in the fields of application of the EC Treaty and the
Euratom Treaty and of Title VI of the TEU, designed to prepare proposals with a view to the
adoption of future actions. The preparatory actions are to follow a coherent approach and may
take various forms. The relevant commitment appropriations may be entered in the budget for
only three successive financial years at most. The legislative procedure must be concluded before
the end of the third financial year. In the course of the legislative procedure, the commitment of
appropriations must correspond to the particular features of the preparatory action as regards the
activities envisaged, the aims pursued and the persons benefited. Consequently, the means imple-
mented cannot correspond in volume to those envisaged for financing the definitive action itself;

When the preliminary draft budget is presented, the Commission shall submit a report to the
budgetary authority on the actions referred to in points (a) and (b) which shall also cover an
assessment of results and the follow-up envisaged;

(c) appropriations for preparatory measures in the field of Title V of the TEU (concerning CFSP).
These measures shall be limited to a short period of time and shall be designed to establish the
conditions for European Union action in fulfilment of the objectives of the CFSP and for the
adoption of the necessary legal instruments;

For the purpose of EU crisis management operations, preparatory measures are designed inter alia
to assess the operational requirements, to provide for a rapid initial deployment of resources, or
to establish the conditions on the ground for the launching of the operation.

Preparatory measures shall be agreed by the Council, in full association with the Commission. To
this end, the Presidency, assisted by the Secretary-General of the Council/High Representative for
the CFSP, shall inform the Commission as early as possible on the Council's intention to launch a
preparatory measure and in particular on the estimated resources required for this purpose. In
conformity with the provisions of this Regulation, the Commission shall take all the necessary
measures to ensure a rapid disbursement of the funds;

There is a conflict of interests where the impartial and objective exercise of the functions of a
financial actor or other person, as referred to in paragraph 1, is compromised for reasons involving
family, emotional life, political or national affinity, economic interest or any other shared interest with
the beneficiary.’

in the transmission of audiovisual media services call for the regulatory framework to be adapted to
take account of the spread of information and communication technologies (ICT) and the impact of
structural change and technological developments on business models, especially the financing of
commercial broadcasting, and to ensure optimal conditions of competitiveness and legal certainty
for Europe's information technologies and its media industries and services, as well as respect for
cultural and linguistic diversity. The laws, regulations and administrative measures should be as
unobtrusive and simple as possible to allow new and existing audiovisual media services to develop
and flourish, thus allowing for job creation, economic growth, innovation and cultural diversity to
be nurtured.

The laws, regulations and administrative measures in Member States concerning the pursuit of televi-
sion broadcasting activities are already coordinated by Directive 89/552/EEC, whereas the rules
applicable to activities such as on-demand media services are only coordinated in relation to their
distribution by Directive 2002/21/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 March
2002 on a common regulatory framework for electronic communications networks and services
(Framework Directive) (1) and in relation to trading by Directive 2000/31/EC of the European
Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2000 on certain legal aspects of information society
services, in particular electronic commerce, in the internal market (2) (the Electronic Commerce
Directive); the content of the new audiovisual media services is still governed by the legislation of
the Member States. Some of these disparities impede the free movement of these services within the
European Union and may distort competition within the common market.

Audiovisual media services are as much cultural goods as they are economic goods. Their growing
importance for societies, democracy — in particular by ensuring freedom of information, diversity
of opinion and media pluralism — education and culture justifies the application of specific rules to
these services, and the enforcement of those rules, notably in order to preserve the fundamental
rights and freedoms laid down in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, the
European Convention for Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms and the United
Nations Covenant on Civil and Political Freedoms, and in order to ensure the protection of minors
and vulnerable and disabled people.

In its resolutions of 1 December 2005 on preparations for the Sixth Ministerial Conference of the
World Trade Organization in Hong Kong (3) and of 4 April 2006 on the assessment of the Doha
Round following the WTO Ministerial Conference in Hong Kong (4), the European Parliament
called for basic public services, such as health, education and audiovisual services to be excluded
from liberalisation under the GATS negotiations. In its resolution of 27 April 2006 on the
proposal for a Council decision on the conclusion of the UNESCO Convention on the Protection
and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions (5), the European Parliament approved the
UNESCO Convention, which states in particular that ‘cultural activities, goods and services have
both an economic and a cultural nature, because they convey identities, values and meanings, and
must therefore not be treated as solely having commercial value’.

(5) Media education should serve to provide citizens with the means to bring a critical interpretation
to bear on, and use, the ever-expanding volume of information with which they are assailed, as
laid down in Council of Europe Recommendation 1466 (2000). Helped by such a learning process,
citizens will be in a position to formulate messages and select the media best suited to impart
them and thus become able to exercise their right to freedom of information and expression to the
full.

(6)

(7)

Traditional audiovisual media services, such as television, and emerging on-demand audiovisual
media services offer significant employment opportunities in the European Union, particularly in small
and medium-sized enterprises, and stimulate economic growth and investment. Bearing in mind the
importance of a level playing-field and a true European broadcasting market, the basic principles
of the common market, such as competition law and equal treatment, should be respected in order
to ensure transparency and predictability in media markets and to achieve low entry barriers.

Legal uncertainty and a non-level playing field exist for European companies delivering audiovisual
media services in terms of the legal regime governing emerging on-demand services. It is therefore
necessary, in order to avoid distortions of competition, to improve legal certainty, to help complete
the internal market and to facilitate the emergence of a single information area, for all audiovisual
media services, both linear and non-linear, irrespective of whether they are transmitted on the
basis of a set programme schedule or on demand, to comply with at least a basic tier of coordinated
rules aimed at guaranteeing, inter alia, a sufficient level of protection of minors, the vulnerable
and the disabled and respect for fundamental rights and freedoms . The basic principles of
Directive 89/552/EEC, namely the transmitting State principle and common minimum standards,
have proved their worth and should therefore be retained.

The Commission has adopted a Communication on the future of European regulatory audiovisual
policy (1), in which it stresses that audio-visual regulatory policy must safeguard certain public interests,
such as cultural diversity, the right to information, the need for media pluralism, the protection of
minors, consumer protection and action to enhance public awareness and media skills and the
principle of universal access for all sectors of the public, including the most disadvantaged, now
and in the future.

(9)

The co-existence of private and public service broadcasters is of considerable importance in the
audiovisual media market, where public service broadcasters may equally benefit from the advan-
tages of the digital economy.

(10) The country of origin principle is crucial to the emergence of a pan-European audiovisual market
with a strong industry producing European content. Moreover, the principle safeguards the view-
er's rights to choose from a wide variety of European programmes.

(11)

The Commission has adopted the initiative ‘i2010: European Information Society’ (2) to foster growth
and jobs in the information society and media industries. The i2010 initiative is a comprehensive
strategy designed to encourage the production of European content, the development of the digital
economy and the uptake of ICT, against the background of the convergence of information and
media services, networks and devices, by modernising and deploying all EU policy instruments: regu-
latory instruments, research and partnerships with industry. The Commission has committed itself to
creating a consistent internal market framework for information society services and media services
by modernising the legal framework for audiovisual services, starting with a Commission proposal in
2005 to modernise Directive 89/552/EEC and transform it into a directive on audiovisual media
services. The goal of the i2010 initiative will in principle be achieved by allowing industries to
grow with minimal regulation, as well as allowing small start-up businesses, which are the wealth
and job creators of the future, to flourish, innovate and create employment in a de-regulated
market.

(12) On 6 September 2005, the European Parliament adopted a Resolution on the application of Articles
4 and 5 of Directive 89/552/EEC (‘Television without Frontiers’), as amended by Directive 97/36/EC, for
the period 2001-2002 (3). That Resolution — like its resolution on Television without Frontiers of
4 September 2003 (4) — calls for Directive 89/552/EEC to be adapted to structural changes and tech-
nological developments while fully respecting its underlying principles, which remain valid. In addi-
tion, in principle it supports the general approach of basic rules for all audiovisual media services and
additional rules for linear (‘broadcasting’) services.

(13)

This Directive enhances compliance with fundamental rights and seeks to incorporate the principles,
rights and freedoms laid down in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, in par-
ticular Article 11 thereof. In this context, Member States should set up one or more independent
regulatory authorities, if they have not already done so. Such authorities should act as the guaran-
tors of fundamental rights in the provision of audiovisual media services. Member States may
decide whether it is appropriate to have a single regulatory authority for all audiovisual media
services or several separate authorities for each category of service, e.g. linear and non-linear.
Furthermore, this Directive does not in any way prevent Member States from applying their constitu-
tional rules or regulatory arrangements relating to freedom of the press and freedom of expression
in the media.

(14) The requirement that the originating Member State should ensure compliance with its national
law as coordinated by this Directive is sufficient under Community law to ensure free movement of
audiovisual media services without secondary control on the same grounds in the receiving
Member State. However, the receiving Member State may, exceptionally and under specific condi-
tions, derogate from this requirement in the event of serious violations of Articles 3d, 3e, 22(1)
and (2) of Directive 89/552/EEC, taking into account the fact that respect for fundamental rights
forms an integral part of the general principles of Community law.

(15) The Framework Directive created a uniform legal framework for all transmission networks and
services but, according to its Article 1(3), is without prejudice to measures taken at Community or
national level, to pursue general interest objectives, in particular relating to content regulation and
audiovisual policy with a view to separating the regulation of transmission from the regulation of
content.

Wednesday, 13 December 2006

(16) The Electronic Commerce Directive contains no specific substantive provisions governing audiovi-
sual media services and leaves to the Member States the option of derogating from the country of
origin principle on specific matters of public policy on a case-by-case basis and in accordance with
a notification procedure. By imposing additional minimum standards for non-linear audiovisual
media services with a view to the protection of minors and the promotion of cultural diversity, this
Directive extends the field of harmonised Community law. To that extent this Directive builds on
the Electronic Commerce Directive in those areas to cover a specific subset of non-linear audiovi-
sual services which are of particular importance for society and are characterised by their cultural
dimension. For these services the degree of coordination of national rules is higher and the internal
market is more complete.

(17) No provision of this Directive should require or encourage Member States to impose new systems of

licensing or administrative authorisation on any type of audiovisual media.

(18)

(19)

The definition of audiovisual media services covers all audiovisual mass-media services the content of
which is suitable for television broadcasting irrespective of the delivery platform, whether the
editorial approach and responsibility of the provider are reflected in a programme schedule or in a
selection catalogue. However, its scope is limited to services as defined by the Treaty and therefore
covers any form of economic activity,
including that of public service enterprises. The economic
element must be significant to justify the application of this Directive. Economic activities are
normally provided for remuneration,
intended for a certain period and characterised by a
certain continuity; the assessment of the economic element should be subject to the criteria and
rules of the country of origin. Accordingly, the definition of audiovisual media services does not
cover non-economic activities which are normally not provided for remuneration, such as weblogs
and other user-generated content, or any form of private correspondence, such as e-mails and
private websites.

The definition of audiovisual media services covers mass media over which editorial responsibility is
exercised in their function to inform, entertain and educate the general public, and includes audiovi-
sual commercial communications, but excludes any form of private correspondence, such as e-mails
sent to a limited number of recipients. The definition also excludes all services whose principal
purpose is not the distribution of audiovisual content, i.e. where any audiovisual content is merely
incidental to the service. Examples include websites that contain audiovisual elements only in an
ancillary manner, such as animated graphical elements, small advertising spots or information related
to a product or non-audiovisual service. Moreover, in accordance with the Electronic Commerce
Directive, it excludes games of chance involving a stake representing a sum of money, including
lotteries and betting, provided that their main purpose is not that of distributing audiovisual
content. Further examples are online games and search engines, as long as their principal purpose
is not the distribution of audiovisual content.

sual media services or television broadcasting services which are also offered on a live or deferred
basis as non-linear services by the same media service provider, the requirements of this Directive
are deemed to apply only to the linear transmission. However, where different kinds of services are
offered in parallel, without one part being clearly subordinate to another, this Directive should
nevertheless apply to those distinguishable parts of the service which fulfil all the criteria of an
audiovisual media service.

(21) The definitions in this Directive, in particular the definitions of television broadcasting, linear and
non-linear services, are laid down purely for the purposes of this Directive and Directive
89/552/EEC and do not affect the underlying rights protected by copyright and neighbouring
rights legislation. The scope and regime of such rights are not prejudiced by those definitions and
continue to be regulated independently by the relevant legislation.

(22)

This Directive does not cover electronic versions of newspapers and magazines.

(23)

For the purposes of this Directive, the term ‘audiovisual’ refers to moving images with or without
sound, and therefore includes silent films but excludes audio transmission or radio services.

(24) An audiovisual media service consists of programmes, i.e. a discrete succession of moving images
with or without sound which are subject to editorial responsibility and are either transmitted by a
media service provider in accordance with a set time schedule or arranged in the form of a cata-
logue.

(25)

The notion of editorial responsibility is essential for defining the role of the media service provider
and accordingly for defining audiovisual media services. ‘Editorial responsibility’ means responsibility
for the selection and organisation, in a professional capacity, of the content of an audiovisual
offer. It may be exercised over an individual content or a collection of contents. Such editorial
responsibility applies to the composition of the schedule, in the case of television programmes, or
to the programme listing, in the case of non-linear services. This Directive is without prejudice to
the liability exemptions established in the Electronic Commerce Directive.

(26) The mere technical delivery, by terrestrial means or by satellite, of an audiovisual media service
does not in itself confer the status of a media service provider within the meaning of this Directive;
the same principle applies where a selection decision is made, provided that a third party under the
jurisdiction of a Member State clearly bears that editorial responsibility.

(27) The criteria laid down in the definition of audiovisual media services, as set out in Article 1(a) of
Directive 89/552/EEC and expanded in Recitals 18 to 26 to this Directive, must be fulfilled
simultaneously.

(28)

(29)

In addition to advertising and teleshopping, the wider definition of audiovisual commercial communi-
cation is introduced. It comprises moving images with or without sound which are transmitted as
part of an audiovisual media service and form part of or accompany programmes and are designed
to promote, directly or indirectly, the goods, services or image or a natural or legal person pursuing an
economic activity and therefore it does not include public service announcements or charity appeals
broadcast free of charge.

The country of origin principle remains the core of Directive 89/552/EEC, as it is essential for the
creation of an internal market. This principle must therefore be applied to all audiovisual media
services in order to ensure legal certainty for media service providers as the necessary basis for new
business models and the deployment of such services. It is also essential in order to ensure the free
flow of information and audiovisual programmes in the internal market. The application of this
principle cannot exclude consideration of the criteria of the origin of the resources of a service
with a view to ensuring the conditions for fair competition.

(30) To promote a strong, competitive and integrated European audiovisual industry and enhance media
pluralism throughout the European Union, it remains essential that only one Member State should
have jurisdiction over an audiovisual media service provider and that pluralism of information
should be a fundamental principle of the European Union.

23.12.2006

EN

Official Journal of the European Union

C 317E/413

(31)

It is therefore essential that the Member States prevent the emergence of dominant positions that
would lead to a reduction in pluralism and restrictions on freedom of media information as well as
on the information sector as a whole, for instance by taking measures to secure non-discriminatory
access to audiovisual media service offerings in the public interest, e.g. through must-carry rules.

Wednesday, 13 December 2006

(32)

Technological developments, especially with regard to digital satellite programmes, mean that
subsidiary criteria need to be adapted in order to ensure suitable regulation and effective implementa-
tion and to give players genuine power over the content of an audiovisual media service.

(33) As this Directive concerns services offered to the general public in the European Union, it should
apply only to audiovisual media services that can be received directly or indirectly by the public in
‘standard
one or more Member States with standard consumer equipment. The definition of
consumer equipment’ should be left to the competent national authorities.

(34) Articles 43 to 48 of the Treaty lay down the fundamental right to freedom of establishment. Therefore,
audiovisual media service providers are in general free to choose the Member State where they are
established. The Court of Justice of the European Communities (ECJ) has also emphasised that ‘the Treaty
does not prohibit an undertaking from exercising the freedom to provide services if it does not offer
services in the Member State in which it is established’ (1).

(35) Member States must be free to apply stricter rules in the fields coordinated by this Directive to media
service providers under their jurisdiction, while ensuring that those rules are consistent with
Community competition law. To ensure that such rules are not circumvented, the codification of the
case law of the ECJ (2), combined with a more efficient procedure, is an appropriate solution that
takes account of Member State concerns without calling into question the proper application of the
country of origin principle.

(36)

In order for a Member State to prove on a case-by-case basis that a media service provider estab-
lished in another Member State is circumventing its rules, that Member State may cite indicators
such as the origin of the advertising and/or subscription revenues, the main language of the
service or the existence of programmes or commercial communications targeted specifically at the
public in the Member State where they are received.

(37) Under this Directive, notwithstanding the application of the country of origin principle, Member
States may nevertheless take measures that restrict the freedom of movement of television broadcasting
or non-linear audiovisual media services, but only under certain conditions listed in Article 2a of
Directive 89/552/EEC and following the procedure laid down in that Directive. However, the ECJ has
consistently held that any restriction of the freedom to provide services, such as any derogation from
a fundamental principle of the Treaty, must be interpreted restrictively (3). Particular consideration
should also be given to the protection of minors and health, but nevertheless the prior control of

In its Communication to the Council and the European Parliament on Better Regulation for Growth
and Jobs in the European Union (1), the Commission stressed that a careful analysis of the appropriate
in particular whether legislation is preferable for the relevant sector and
regulatory approach,
problem, or whether alternatives such as co-regulation or self regulation should be considered.
Furthermore, experience has shown that both co- and self-regulation instruments implemented in
accordance with the different legal traditions of Member States can play an important role in deli-
vering a high level of consumer protection. Measures aimed at achieving public interest objectives
in the emerging audiovisual media services sector will be more effective if they are taken with the
active support of the service providers themselves. Thus self-regulation constitutes a type of volun-
tary initiative, which enables economic operators, social partners, non-governmental organisations
or associations to adopt common guidelines amongst themselves and for themselves. Member
States should, in accordance with their different legal traditions, recognise the effective role which
effective self-regulation can play as a complement to the legislation and judicial and/or administra-
tive mechanisms in place and its useful contribution to the achievement of the objectives of this
Directive. However, while self-regulation might be a complementary method of implementing
certain provisions of this Directive, it cannot constitute a substitute for the obligation of the
national legislator. Co-regulation gives, in its minimal form, a ‘legal link’ between self-regulation
and the national legislator in accordance with the legal traditions of the Member States.

(39) The generic term ‘co-regulation’ covers regulatory instruments which are based on cooperation
between State bodies and self-regulating bodies, and vary widely in terms of their designations
and structures at national level. The actual form which such instruments take reflects the specific
tradition of media regulation in the individual Member States. What co-regulation systems have in
common is that tasks and objectives which were originally the preserve of the State are achieved in
cooperation with the players affected by regulation. It is for the participants themselves, designated
or authorised by the State, to guarantee the achievement of the regulatory objective. In every case
the systems are founded on a State legal framework which lays down instructions as to content,
organisation and procedures. On this basis, the interested parties create further criteria, rules and
instruments, compliance with which they themselves monitor. Self-regulation as thus defined
enables specialist knowledge to be exploited directly for administrative tasks, and bureaucratic
procedures to be avoided. It is necessary for all, or at least the most influential, players to partici-
pate in or recognise the system. Co-regulation operates by combining instructions to the interested
parties with opportunities for State intervention should those instructions not be carried out.

(40)

Entertainment rights for events of public interest may be acquired by broadcasters on an exclusive
basis. However, it is essential to promote pluralism through the diversity of news production and
programming across the European Union and to respect the principles recognised by Article 11 of
the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.

(41)

Therefore, in order to safeguard the fundamental freedom to receive information and to ensure that
the interests of viewers in the European Union are fully and properly protected, those exercising
exclusive rights concerning an event of high public interest must grant other broadcasters and inter-
mediaries, where they are acting on behalf of broadcasters, the right to use short extracts for the
purposes of general news programmes on fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory terms taking due
account of exclusive rights. Such terms should be communicated in a timely manner before the event
of public interest takes place to give others sufficient time to exercise such a right. As a general rule,
such short extracts should not: exceed 90 seconds; be transmitted before the event concludes, or for
sports events before the end of a single day's play — whichever is the sooner; be screened later
than 36 hours after the event; be used to create a public archive; omit the logo or other identifier
of the host broadcaster; or be used in non-linear services other than if offered on a live or deferred
basis by the same media service provider. The right to trans-frontier news access should apply only
where it
if another broadcaster in the same Member State has
acquired exclusive rights to the event in question, access must be sought from that broadcaster. For
pan-European broadcasters, the relevant legislation is that of the Member State in which the event
takes place.

(42) Media literacy refers to the skills, knowledge and understanding needed to enable consumers to use
the media effectively. Media-literate people will be capable of exercising informed choices; under-
standing the nature of content and services; taking advantage of the full range of opportunities
offered by new communications technologies, and better protecting themselves and their families
from harmful or offensive material. It is therefore of crucial importance that Member States and
national regulatory authorities actively promote the development of media literacy in all sections of
society and that they conduct regular research to monitor it and to inform their approach to
content regulation.

(43) Non-linear services differ from linear services in terms of the choice and control which the user can
exercise and with regard to the impact which they have on society (1). Such difference justifies imposing
lighter regulation on non-linear services, which have to comply only with the basic rules provided for
in Articles 3c to 3h of Directive 89/552/EEC.

(44)

(45)

Because of the specific nature of audiovisual media services, especially their impact on the way in
which people form their opinions, it is essential for users to know exactly who is responsible for the
content of the services. It is therefore important for Member States to ensure that users have access
to information about the ways in which editorial responsibility for the content is exercised and by
whom. It is for each Member State to decide the practical details as to how this objective can be
achieved without prejudice to any other relevant provisions of Community law.

In accordance with the principle of proportionality, the measures provided for in this Directive are
strictly limited to the minimum needed to achieve the objective of the proper functioning of the
internal market. Where action at Community level is necessary, and in order to guarantee an area
which is truly without internal frontiers as far as audiovisual media services are concerned, Directive
89/552/EEC must promote a high level of protection of objectives of general interest, in particular
the protection of minors, the rights of persons with disabilities and human dignity.

(46) Harmful content and conduct in audiovisual media services continue to be a concern for law-makers,
industry and parents. In this regard it would seem necessary to educate not only children, but also
their parents, teachers and educators, to make the best use of all the communications media, parti-
cularly audiovisual media services, however they may be delivered. It is therefore necessary to intro-
duce rules to protect the physical, mental and moral development of minors as well as human
dignity in all audiovisual media services and in audiovisual commercial communication, advertising,
telesales,
technically feasible means of
communication.

sponsorship, product placement and any other

(47) Member States should ensure that their respective national curricula and further education courses

provide for a critical appreciation of the media.

(48) Measures taken to protect minors and human dignity must be carefully balanced with the funda-
mental right to freedom of expression as laid down in the Charter on Fundamental Rights of the
European Union. The aim of these measures should however be to ensure an adequate level of protec-
tion of minors and human dignity, especially with regard to non-linear services, by means of an obli-
gation to draw attention clearly to the specific nature of certain programmes before they are trans-
mitted and in accordance both with Article 1 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the
European Union, recognising that human dignity is inviolable and must be respected and protected,
and with Article 24 of that Charter, which states that children shall have the right to such protec-
tion and care as is necessary for their well-being, and that in all actions relating to children,
whether taken by public authorities or private institutions, the child's best interests must be a
primary consideration.

(49) Minors and the vulnerable and disabled, including the mentally disabled, may be particularly
undermined and psychically or psychologically upset and disturbed by programmes which feature
scenes of verbal, physical or moral violence or by scenes which offend against human dignity, or
incite racial hatred or any other form of discrimination. Insofar as one of the objectives of this
Directive is to protect such persons in general, Member States are strongly encouraged to remind
audiovisual media service providers of this overriding need and to require them to clearly indicate
the particular nature of such programmes prior to their being broadcast.

(50) None of

the provisions of

this Directive that concern the protection of minors and public
order necessarily requires that the measures in question be implemented through any prior control of
audiovisual media services.

(51) Article 151(4) of the Treaty requires the Community to take cultural aspects into account in its
action under other provisions of the Treaty. In particular, the diversity of its cultures and languages
should be respected and promoted, and mutual understanding encouraged.

(52) Non-linear audiovisual media services have the potential to partially replace linear services. Accord-
ingly, they should where practicable promote the production and distribution of European works and
thus actively contribute to the promotion of cultural diversity. Such support for European works
might for example take the form of a minimum share of European works proportionate to
economic performance, a minimum share of European works in video-on-demand catalogues, or
the attractive presentation of European works in electronic programme guides. It will be important
to regularly re-examine the application of the provisions relating to the promotion of European
works by audiovisual media services. Within the framework of the reports referred to in Article 3f(3) of
Directive 89/552/EEC, Member States shall also take into account such matters as the financial contribu-
tion by such services to the production and rights acquisition of European works; the share of
European works in the catalogue of audiovisual media services as well as in the effective users'
consumption of European works proposed by such services. In those reports, appropriate account
should also be taken of the works of independent producers.

(53) Persons who merely bundle or transmit audiovisual media services or offer for sale packages of
such services, for which they do not have any editorial responsibility, should not be considered as
media service providers. Thus, mere bundling, transmission or onward selling of content offers, for
which they do not have any editorial responsibility, do not fall within the scope of this Directive.

(54) When implementing the provisions of Article 4 of Directive 89/552/EEC as amended, Member States
should adopt appropriate measures to encourage broadcasters to include an adequate share of co-
produced European works or of European works of non-domestic origin.

(55) Media service providers should also include in their services the works of independent producers,
while respecting the rights attaching to repeat showings of such works and the fair apportionment
of contributors' rights.

(56)

It is important to ensure that cinematographic works are transmitted within periods agreed between
rights-holders and audiovisual media service providers.

(57)

The availability of non-linear services increases choice for the consumer. Member States should there-
fore make provision in their national curricula and further education courses for sufficient educa-
tion in critical use of the media, to avoid the need to introduce detailed rules governing audiovisual
commercial communication. Detailed rules governing audiovisual commercial communication for
non-linear services thus appear neither to be justified nor to make sense from a technical point of
view. Nevertheless, all audiovisual commercial communication should respect not only the identifica-
tion rules but also a basic tier of qualitative rules in order to meet clear public policy objectives.

(58) The right of reply is a particularly appropriate legal remedy in the online environment, since it is
possible to correct the contested information immediately. However, the right should be exercised
within a reasonable period after receipt of the request, at a time and in a form which appears
appropriate in view of the particular programme to which the request relates. The reply must in
particular be given the same weight as the contested information, so as to reach the same circle of
users with the same effects.

(59) As has been recognised by the Commission in its interpretative communication on certain aspects of
the provisions on televised advertising in the ‘Television without frontiers’ Directive (1), the develop-
ment of new advertising techniques and marketing innovations has created new effective opportu-
nities for commercial communications in traditional broadcasting services, potentially enabling them
to better compete on a level playing field with on-demand innovations. This interpretative communi-
cation remains valid to the extent that it refers to provisions of Directive 89/552/EEC that are unaf-
fected by this Directive.

Wednesday, 13 December 2006

(60) Commercial and technological developments give users increased choice and responsibility in their
use of audiovisual media services. To remain proportionate with the goals of general interest, regu-
lation must allow a certain degree of flexibility with regard to linear audiovisual media services: the
separation principle should be limited to advertising and teleshopping, product placement should be
allowed under certain circumstances in certain cases determined on the basis of a positive list, and
some quantitative restrictions should be abolished. However, where product placement is surrepti-
tious, it should be prohibited. The separation principle should not prevent the use of new advertising
techniques.

(61)

It is necessary to ensure coherence between this Directive and existing Community law. Accord-
ingly, in the event of conflict between the provisions of this Directive and a provision of another
Community act governing specific aspects of access to or exercise of an audiovisual media service
activity, the provisions of this Directive should prevail. This Directive consequently complements
the Community acquis. Thus, apart from the practices that are covered by this Directive, Directive
2005/29/EC (2) applies to unfair commercial practices, such as misleading and aggressive practices
occurring in audiovisual media services. Moreover, as Directive 2003/33/EC (3), which prohibits
advertising and sponsorship for cigarettes and other tobacco products in printed media, information
society services and radio broadcasting, is without prejudice to Directive 89/552/EEC, in view of the
special characteristics of audiovisual media services, the relationship between Directive 2003/33/EC
and Directive 89/552/EEC should remain the same after the entry into force of
this Directive.
Article 88(1) of Directive 2001/83/EC (4) which prohibits advertising to the general public of certain
medicine products applies, as provided in paragraph 5 of that Article, without prejudice to Article 14
of Directive 89/552/EEC;
likewise the relationship between Directive 2001/83/EC and Directive
89/552/EEC should remain the same after the entry into force of this Directive. Furthermore, this
Directive is without prejudice to Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006 of the European Parliament and
of the Council of 20 December 2006 on nutrition and health claims made on foods (5).

(62) Given the growing use of new technologies such as personal video recorders and the wider choice
of channels, detailed regulation with regard to the insertion of spot advertising with the aim of
protecting viewers is no longer justified. This Directive gives flexibility to broadcasters with regard to
the insertion of such advertising where it does not unduly affect the integrity of programmes.

(63)

This Directive is intended to safeguard the specific character of the European television landscape.
Advertising and teleshopping spots may be inserted during programmes only in such a way as not
to prejudice the integrity and value of the programme, taking into account natural breaks and the
duration and nature of the programme, or the rights of the rights-holders.

(64)

The limitation on the amount of daily advertising was largely theoretical. The hourly limit is more
important since it also applies during prime time. Therefore the daily limit should be abolished, while
the hourly limit should be maintained for advertising and teleshopping spots; also the quantitative
restrictions on the time allowed for teleshopping or advertising channels no longer seem justified
given increased consumer choice. However, the limit of 20 % of advertising per clock hour remains
applicable, except for more time-consuming forms of advertising such as telepromotions and tele-
shopping windows that require more time on account of their inherent characteristics and method of
presentation (1).

(65)

Surreptitious advertising is a practice prohibited by this Directive because of its negative effect on
consumers. The prohibition of surreptitious advertising does not cover legitimate product placement
within the framework of this Directive.

(66)

(67)

(68)

Product placement is a reality in cinematographic works and in audiovisual works made for television,
but Member States regulate this practice differently. To ensure a level playing field, and thus enhance
the competitiveness of the European media industry, it is necessary to adopt rules for product place-
ment. It would be useful to have a positive list which authorises product placement in the types of
content whose paramount function is not to influence opinion, and in cases in which no — or only
negligible — consideration is provided in return. The definition of product placement covers any
form of audiovisual commercial communication consisting of the inclusion of or reference to a
product, a service or the trade mark thereof so that it is featured within a programme, normally in
return for payment or for similar consideration. It may consist in placing at a person's disposal
services or items having a monetary value, for the acquisition of which the recipient would other-
wise have had to use his own financial, personal or material resources. Product placement is
subject to the same qualitative rules and restrictions applying to advertising. It should, furthermore,
meet specific requirements. The editorial responsibility and independence of the media service
provider must not be jeopardised. In particular, the way the product is included in the programme
must not create the impression that the product is endorsed by the programme or its presenters.
Furthermore, the product must not be given ‘undue prominence’ which means such prominence as
is not justified by the editorial requirements of the programme, or the need to lend verisimilitude.
Undue prominence may also mean the repeated appearance of the brands, goods or services in
question or the manner in which they are given prominence. Account should also be taken of the
content of the programme in which they are introduced.

‘Production props’ means the mentioning or presentation of goods or services for editorial reasons
without payment or similar consideration. In order to draw the distinction between production
props and product placement within the meaning of this Directive, the legal framework for the use
of production props permitted in all programme formats should be clarified.

‘Undue prominence’ is given when the repeated representation of the brand, good or service or the
nature of its presentation is such as to feature such products to an inordinate extent in the context
of production props or product placement, taking account of the content of the programmes in
which they appear.

(69) Regulators should be independent from national governments as well as from audiovisual media
service providers in order to be able to carry out their work impartially and transparently and to
contribute to pluralism. Close cooperation among national regulatory authorities and the Commis-
sion is necessary to ensure the correct application of this Directive. Similarly close cooperation
between Member States and between Member States' regulatory authorities is particularly impor-
tant with regard to the impact which broadcasters established in one Member State might have in
another Member State. Where licensing procedures are provided for in national law and if more
than one Member State is involved, it is desirable that contacts between the respective authorities
should take place before licences are granted. Such cooperation should cover all the fields coordi-
nated by Directive 89/552/EEC and in particular Articles 2, 2a and 3 thereof.

(70) Cultural diversity, freedom of expression and pluralism of means of communication are some
important aspects of the European audiovisual sector and are therefore indispensable preconditions
for democracy and diversity.

order to inform, entertain or educate, to the general public by electronic communications
networks within the meaning of Article 2(a) of Directive 2002/21/EC and/or of audiovisual
commercial communications. It does not include services where the provision of audiovisual
content is merely incidental to the service and not its principal purpose, nor does it include the
press in printed or electronic form.

“media service provider” means the natural or legal person who has editorial responsibility for the

“broadcaster” means provider of linear audiovisual media services;

(e)

(f)

“on-demand service” or “non-linear service” means an audiovisual media service consisting of an
offer of audiovisual content, edited or compiled by a media service provider, and where the user,
on an individual basis, requests the transmission of a particular programme from a choice of
content and at a time of his choice, or which is not covered by the definition of a linear service
in point (c);

“audiovisual commercial communication” means moving images with or without sound which
are transmitted as part of an audiovisual media service or, in cases such as dedicated teleshop-
ping channels, as an audiovisual media service, with the aim of promoting, directly or indirectly,

private undertaking in connection with a trade, business, craft or profession in order to promote
the supply of goods or services, including immovable property, rights and obligations, in return
for payment;

“surreptitious advertising” means the representation in words or pictures of goods, services, the
name, the trade mark or the activities of a producer of goods or a provider of services in
programmes when such representation is intended by the media service provider to serve as
advertising and might mislead the public as to its nature. Such representation is considered to be
intentional in particular if it is done in return for payment or for similar consideration;

“product integration” and “thematic placement” mean the intervention in the plot of a film or
fictional programme of any undertaking seeking to promote in particular a product, service or
brand;

within audiovisual media services, with or without payment or similar consideration to the media
service provider. It does not include, however, communications resulting from independent
editorial decisions to use products, without undue prominence, which are integral to a
programme and facilitate its production, such as prizes awarded in programmes, branded
merchandising products and incidental objects and props;

(n) “production props” means goods or services made available without payment or other consid-

eration and used for editorial reasons;

(o) “programme” means a set of moving images with or without sound constituting an individual

The Commission shall, within two months following notification of the measures taken by the
Member State concerned, decide whether the measures are compatible with Community law. If it
decides that they are not, that Member State shall be required to withdraw the measures in question
as a matter of urgency.

5.
Paragraph 2 shall be without prejudice to the application of any procedure, remedy or sanction
applicable to the infringements in question in the Member State which has jurisdiction over the
media service provider concerned.’

(5) Article 3 is replaced by the following:

‘Article 3

1. Member States shall remain free to require media service providers under their jurisdiction to
comply with more detailed or stricter rules in the areas covered by this Directive, provided that such
rules comply with Community law and do not distort competition.

2.

In cases where a Member State:

(a) has exercised its freedom under paragraph 1 to adopt more detailed or stricter rules; and

(b) where such rules are justified on the grounds of public policy, including the protection of

minors or public security or public health or the protection of cultural diversity; and

(c) that Member State considers that a broadcaster under the jurisdiction of another Member State
has taken advantage of this Directive in an abusive or fraudulent manner in order to circum-
vent such rules,

it may contact the Member State having jurisdiction with a view to achieving a mutually satisfac-
tory solution to any problems posed. On receipt of a substantiated request by the first Member
State, the Member State having jurisdiction shall request the broadcaster to comply with the rules
in question. The Member State with jurisdiction shall inform the first Member State of the results
obtained within two months of the request.

3. Where the first Member State considers:

(a) that the results achieved through the application of paragraph 1a are not satisfactory; and

(b) that the media service provider concerned has established itself in the Member State having
jurisdiction solely in order to avoid the stricter rules in the fields coordinated by this Directive
to which it would be subject if it were established in the first Member State,

it may adopt appropriate measures against the media service provider concerned, in order to prevent
abuse or fraudulent conduct.

Such measures shall be objectively necessary, applied in a non-discriminatory manner, be appro-
priate for attaining the objectives which they pursue and may not go beyond what is necessary to
attain them.

A Member State may take measures pursuant to paragraph 3 only if all of the following

4.
conditions are met:

(a) it has notified the Commission and the Member State in which the media service provider is
established of its intention to take such measures, while substantiating the grounds on which it
proposes to adopt the measures, and

(b) the Commission decides that the measures are compatible with Community law, and in particu-
lar that the reasons for which that Member State proposes to take the measures under para-
graphs 2 and 3 are well-founded.

5.
The Commission shall takes its decision within three months following notification under
paragraph 4(a). If the Commission decides that the measures are incompatible with Community
law, the Member State in question shall refrain from taking the proposed measures.

their jurisdiction comply with the principles laid down in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the
European Union and, in particular, the following requirements:

sual commercial communication shall be prohibited;

the adoption of Regulation (EC) No …/2006 of the European Parliament and Council on establishing
the European Globalisation adjustment Fund

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular the third paragraph of
Article 159,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Having regard to the Opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (1),

Having regard to the opinion of the Committee of the Regions (2),

Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 (3),

Whereas:

(1)

Notwithstanding the positive effects of globalisation on growth, jobs and prosperity and the need to
enhance European competitiveness further through structural change, globalisation may also have
negative consequences for the most vulnerable and least qualified workers in some sectors. It is there-
fore opportune to establish a European Globalisation adjustment Fund (the EGF), accessible to all
Member States, through which the Community would show its solidarity towards workers affected by
redundancies resulting from changes in world trade patterns.

It is necessary to preserve European values and to promote the development of fair external trade.
The negative effects of globalisation should be tackled in the first instance by a long-term, sustainable
Community strategy for trade policy aiming at high social and ecological standards. The assistance
provided by the EGF should be dynamic and capable of adapting to constantly changing and often
unforeseen circumstances in the market.

The EGF should provide specific, one-off support to facilitate the re-integration into employment of
workers in areas, sectors territories, or labour market regions suffering the shock of serious economic
disruption. The EGF should promote entrepreneurship, for example through micro-credits or for
setting up cooperative projects.

Actions under this Regulation should be defined according to strict intervention criteria relating to
the scale of economic dislocation and its impact on a given sector or geographical area, to ensure
that the financial contribution from the EGF is concentrated on workers in the most seriously affected
regions and economic sectors of the Community. Such dislocation is not necessarily concentrated in
a single Member State. In such exceptional circumstances, Member States may therefore submit joint
requests for assistance from the EGF.

The activities of the EGF should be coherent and compatible with the other Community policies and
comply with its acquis, especially the interventions of the structural funds, while making a genuine
contribution to the Community's social policies.

The Interinstitutional Agreement between the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission
of 17 May 2006 on budgetary discipline and sound financial management (1)
(Interinstitutional
Agreement) is binding from 1 January 2007 and Point 28 determines the budgetary framework of
the EGF.

A specific action funded under this Regulation should not receive financial assistance from other
Community financial instruments. Coordination with existing or planned modernisation and restruc-
turing measures in the framework of regional development is necessary, however, albeit that such
coordination should not result in the creation of parallel or additional management structures for
actions funded by the EGF.

To facilitate the implementation of this Regulation, expenditure should be eligible from the date on
which a Member State begins to provide personalised services to the affected workers. Reflecting the
need for a concentrated response aiming specifically at re-integration into employment, a deadline
should be set for the use of the financial contribution of the EGF.

The Member State should remain responsible for the implementation of the financial contribution
and for the management and control of the actions supported by Community financing, in accord-
ance with Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regu-
lation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities (2). The Member State should
justify the use made of the financial contribution received.

The European Monitoring Centre on Change, based in Dublin, may assist the European Commission
and the Member State concerned with qualitative and quantitative analyses in order to help in the
evaluation of an application for EGF funds.

Since the objectives of the action to be taken cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States
and can therefore, by reason of their scale and effects, be better achieved at Community level, the
Community may adopt measures,
in accordance with the principles of subsidiarity as set out in
Article 5 of the Treaty. In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article,
this Regulation does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve those objectives.

(12) As the period of implementation of the EGF is linked to the duration of the financial framework
from 1 January 2007 to 31 December 2013, support should be available to workers affected by
trade-related redundancies from 1 January 2007,

HAVE ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Subject-matter and scope

1. With the aim of stimulating economic growth and creating more jobs in the European Union, this
Regulation establishes the EGF, to enable the Community to provide support for workers made redundant
as a result of major structural changes in world trade patterns due to globalisation where these redundancies
have a significant adverse impact on the regional or local economy.

Its period of application shall be linked to the Financial Framework, from January 2007 to December 2013.

This Regulation lays down rules regarding the operation of the EGF in order to facilitate re-integration

2.
into employment of workers affected by trade-related redundancies.

Article 2

Intervention criteria

A financial contribution from the EGF shall be provided where major structural changes in world trade
patterns lead to a serious economic disruption, notably a substantial increase of imports into the EU, or a
rapid decline of the EU market share in a given sector or a delocalisation to third countries, which results in:

(a) at least 1 000 redundancies over a period of 4 months in an enterprise in a Member State, including

workers made redundant in its suppliers or downstream producers, or

(b) at least 1 000 redundancies, over a period of 9 months, particularly in small or medium-sized enter-

prises, in a NACE 2 sector in one region or two contiguous regions at NUTS II level.

(c) small

labour markets or in exceptional circumstances, duly substantiated by the Member State(s)
concerned, an application for a contribution from the EGF may be considered admissible even if the
conditions laid down in subparagraphs (a) and (b) are not entirely met, when redundancies have a
serious impact on employment and the local economy. The aggregated amount of contributions for
exceptional circumstances may not exceed 15 % of the EGF each year.

Article 3

Eligible actions

A financial contribution under this Regulation may be made for active labour market measures that form
part of a coordinated package of personalised services designed to re-integrate redundant workers into the
labour market, including:

(a)

job-search assistance, occupational guidance, tailor-made training and re-training including ICT skills and
certification of acquired experience, outplacement assistance and entrepreneurship promotion or aid for
self-employment;

(b) special time-limited measures, such as job-search allowances, mobility allowances or allowances to indi-

viduals participating in lifelong learning and training activities; and

(c) measures to stimulate in particular disadvantaged or older workers, to remain in or return to the labour

market.

The EGF shall not finance passive social protection measures.

On the initiative of the Member State, the EGF may finance the preparatory, management, information and
publicity, and control activities for its implementation.

C 317 E/439

Wednesday, 13 December 2006

(b) verifying that the financed actions have been properly carried out;

(c) ensuring that expenditure funded are based on verifiable supporting documents, are correct and regular;

and

(d) preventing, detecting and correcting irregularities as defined in Article 70 of Council Regulation (EC) No
1083/2006 of 11 July 2006 laying down general provisions on the European Regional Development
Fund, the European Social Fund and the Cohesion Fund (1), and recovering amounts unduly paid
together with interest on late payments in accordance with the same Article. They shall notify these to
the Commission in due time and keep the Commission informed of the progress of administrative and
legal proceedings.

2.
The Member State shall make the financial corrections required where an irregularity is ascertained.
The corrections made by the Member State shall consist in cancelling all or part of the Community contri-
bution. The Member State shall recover any amount lost as a result of an irregularity detected, repay it to
the Commission and, where the amount is not repaid in the time allowed by the Member State concerned,
default interest shall be due.

3.
The Commission, in its responsibility for the implementation of the general budget of the European
Communities, shall take every step necessary to verify that the actions financed are carried out in accordance
with the principles of sound and efficient financial management, in compliance with the provisions of Regu-
lation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002. It is the responsibility of each Member State to ensure that it has
smoothly functioning management and control systems; the Commission shall satisfy itself that such
systems are in place.

To that end, without prejudice to the powers of the Court of Auditors or the checks carried out by the
Member State in accordance with national laws, regulations and administrative provisions, Commission offi-
cials or servants may carry out on-the-spot checks, including sample checks, on the actions financed by the
Fund with a minimum of one working day's notice. The Commission shall give notice to the Member State
concerned with a view to obtaining all the assistance necessary. Officials or servants of the Member State
concerned may take part in such checks.

4.
The Member State shall ensure that all supporting documents regarding expenditure incurred are kept
available for the Commission and the Court of Auditors for a period of three years following the winding-
up of the financial contribution received from the EGF.

Article 19

Reimbursement of financial contribution

In cases where the amount of the actual cost of an action is less than the estimated amount quoted
1.
pursuant to Article 12, the Commission shall require the Member State to reimburse a corresponding
amount of the financial contribution received.

2. Where the Member State has failed to comply with the obligations stated in the decision on a financial
contribution, the Commission shall take the necessary steps to require the Member State to reimburse all or
part of the financial contribution received.

Prior to the adoption of a decision under paragraphs 1 or 2, the Commission shall conduct a suitable
3.
examination of the case and shall, in particular, allow the Member State a specified period of time in which
to submit its comments.

4.
If, after completing the necessary verifications, the Commission concludes that the Member State is
not complying with its obligations under Article 18(1), it shall, if no agreement has been reached and the
Member State has not made the corrections in a period set by the Commission, and taking account of any
comments made by the Member State, decide within three months from the end of the period referred
above to make the financial corrections required by cancelling all or part of the contribution of the EGF to
the action in question. Any amount lost as a result of an irregularity detected shall be recovered and, where
the amount is not repaid in the time allowed by the Member State concerned, default interest shall be due.

The internal market comprises an area without internal frontiers in which the free movement of
goods, persons, services and capital must be ensured. To that end a comprehensive Community type
approval system for motor vehicles, established by Council Directive 70/156/EEC of 6 February 1970
on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the type approval of motor vehi-
cles and their trailers (3), is in place. The technical requirements for the type approval of motor vehi-
cles with regard to emissions should therefore be harmonised to avoid requirements that differ from
one Member State to another, and to ensure a high level of environmental protection.

This Regulation is one of a number of separate regulatory acts in the context of the Community type
approval procedure under Directive 70/156/EEC. Therefore,
that Directive should be amended
accordingly.

At the request of the European Parliament a new regulatory approach has been introduced in EU
vehicle legislation. Thus, this Regulation lays down fundamental provisions on vehicle emissions,
whereas the technical specifications will be laid down by implementing measures adopted following
comitology procedures.

In March 2001 the Commission launched the Clean Air For Europe (CAFE) programme, the major
elements of which are outlined in a communication of 4 May 2005. This has led to the adoption of a
thematic strategy on air pollution by a communication of 21 September 2005. One of the conclu-
sions of the thematic strategy is that further reductions in emissions from the transport sector (air,
maritime and land transport), from households and from the energy, agricultural and industrial
sectors are needed to achieve EU air quality objectives. In this context, the task of reducing vehicle
emissions should be approached as part of an overall strategy. The Euro 5 and 6 standards are one of
the measures designed to reduce emissions of particulate matter and ozone precursors such as
nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbons.

Achieving EU air quality objectives requires a continuing effort to reduce vehicle emissions. For that
reason, industry should be provided with clear information on future emission limit values. This is
why this Regulation includes, in addition to Euro 5, the Euro 6 stage of emission limit values.

In particular, a considerable reduction in nitrogen oxide emissions from diesel vehicles is necessary to
improve air quality and comply with limit values for pollution. This requires reaching ambitious limit
values at the Euro 6 stage without being obliged to forego the advantages of diesel engines in terms
of fuel consumption and hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide emissions. Setting such a step for redu-
cing nitrogen oxide emissions at an early stage will provide long-term, Europe-wide planning security
for vehicle manufacturers.

In setting emissions standards it is important to take into account the implications for markets and
manufacturers' competitiveness, the direct and indirect costs imposed on business and the benefits
improving air quality, reducing health costs and
that accrue in terms of stimulating innovation,
impact on carbon dioxide
increasing life expectancy, as well as the implications for the overall
emissions.

Unrestricted access to vehicle repair information, via a standardised format which can be used to
retrieve the technical information, and effective competition on the market for vehicle repair and
maintenance information services are necessary to improve the functioning of the internal market,
particularly as regards the free movement of goods, freedom of establishment and freedom to provide
services. A great proportion of such information is related to on-board diagnostic (OBD) systems and
their interaction with other vehicle systems. It is appropriate to lay down technical specifications that
manufacturers' websites should follow, along with targeted measures to ensure reasonable access for
small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Common standards agreed with the involvement of
stakeholders, such as the OASIS (1) format, can facilitate the exchange of information between manu-
facturers and service providers. It is therefore appropriate to initially require the use of the technical
specifications of the OASIS format and to ask the Commission to request CEN/ISO to further develop
this format into a standard with a view to replacing the OASIS format in due course.

Not later than four years after the date of entry into force of this Regulation, the Commission should
review the operation of the system of access to all vehicle repair and maintenance information with a
view to determining whether it would be appropriate to consolidate all provisions governing access
to vehicle repair and maintenance information within a revised framework Directive on type approval.
If the provisions governing access to all vehicle information are incorporated into that Directive, the
corresponding provisions in this Regulation should be repealed, as long as the existing rights for
access to repair and maintenance information are preserved.

The Commission should keep under review emissions which are as yet unregulated and which arise
as a consequence of the wider use of new fuel formulations, engine technologies and emission
control systems and, where necessary, submit a proposal to the European Parliament and to the
Council with a view to regulating such emissions.

Wednesday, 13 December 2006

In order to facilitate the introduction and to maintain the existence of alternative fuel vehicles, which
can have low nitrogen oxide and particulate emissions, and at the same time to encourage reduced
emissions from petrol-powered vehicles, this Regulation introduces separate limit values for total
hydrocarbons and total non-methane hydrocarbons.

(12)

Efforts should be continued to implement stricter emission limits,
including reduction of carbon
dioxide emissions, and to ensure that those limits relate to the actual performance of vehicles when
in use.

(13)

(14)

(15)

In order to ensure that emissions of ultra fine particulate matter (PM 0,1 µm and below) are
controlled, the Commission should adopt as soon as possible, and introduce at the latest upon entry
into force of the Euro 6 stage, a number based approach to emissions of PM in addition to the mass
based approach which is currently used. The number based approach to emissions of PM should
draw on the results of the UN/ECE's Particulate Measurement Programme (PMP) and be consistent
with the existing ambitious objectives for the environment.

To provide greater repeatability in measuring the mass and number of particulate emissions in the
laboratory, the Commission should adopt a new measurement procedure replacing the current one.
This should be introduced as soon as possible and at the latest upon entry into force of the Euro 6
stage. It should be based on the results of the PMP. When the new measurement procedure is imple-
mented, the PM mass emission limits set out in this Regulation should be recalibrated, as the new
procedure records a lower level of mass than the current one.

The Commission should keep under review the need to revise the New European Drive Cycle as the
test procedure that provides the basis of EC type approval emissions regulations. Updating or replace-
ment of the test cycles may be required to reflect changes in vehicle specification and driver beha-
viour. Revisions may be necessary to ensure that real world emissions correspond to those measured
at type approval. The use of portable emission measurement systems and the introduction of the
‘not-to-exceed’ regulatory concept should also be considered.

(16) OBD systems are important in the control of emissions during the use of a vehicle. Due to the impor-
tance of controlling real world emissions, the Commission should keep under review the require-
ments for such systems and the tolerance thresholds for monitoring faults.

(17) A standardised method of measuring fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions of vehicles is
necessary to ensure that no technical barriers to trade arise between Member States. Furthermore, it is
also necessary to ensure that customers and users are supplied with objective and precise
information.

(18)

Before drawing up a proposal for future emission standards, the Commission should set up studies
designed to determine whether the continued subdivision of vehicle categories into groups is still
necessary and whether mass neutral emission limits can be applied.

(19) Member States should be able, by means of financial incentives, to accelerate the placing on the
market of vehicles which satisfy the requirements adopted at Community level. However, such incen-
tives should comply with the provisions of the Treaty, in particular the rules on state aid. This is in
order to avoid distortions of the internal market. This Regulation should not affect the Member
States' right to include emissions in the basis for calculating taxes levied on vehicles.

(20) Given that the legislation on vehicle emissions and fuel consumption has developed over more than
35 years and is now spread over more than 24 Directives, it is advisable to replace those Directives
by a new regulation and a number of implementing measures. A regulation will ensure that the
detailed technical provisions are directly applicable to manufacturers, approval authorities and tech-
nical
they can be updated in a much faster and more efficient way.

be repealed. In addition, the Member States should also repeal the transposing legislation of the
repealed Directives.

To ensure a smooth transition from the existing Directives to this Regulation, the applicability of this
Regulation should be deferred by a certain period after its entry into force. However, during that
period manufacturers should be able to choose to have vehicles approved under either the existing
Directives or this Regulation. Moreover, the provisions on financial incentives should be applicable
immediately after the entry into force of this Regulation. The validity of type approvals granted under
the existing Directives is not to be affected by the entry into force of this Regulation.

To ensure a smooth transition from the existing Directives to this Regulation, certain exceptions for
vehicles designed to fulfil specific social needs should be foreseen in the Euro 5 stage. These excep-
tions should cease with the entry into force of the Euro 6 stage.

The measures necessary for the implementation of this Regulation should be adopted in accordance
with Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of
implementing powers conferred on the Commission (1).

In particular, power should be conferred on the Commission to introduce particle number based
limit values in Annex I, as well as to recalibrate the particulate mass based limit values set out in that
Annex. Since those measures are of general scope and are designed to amend non-essential elements
of this Regulation, they should be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny
provided for in Article 5a of Decision 1999/468/EC.

Power should also be conferred on the Commission to establish specific procedures, tests and require-
ments for type approval, as well as a revised measurement procedure for particulates and a particle
number based limit value, and to adopt measures concerning the use of defeat devices, access to
vehicle repair and maintenance information and test cycles used to measure emissions. Since those
measures are of general scope and are designed to supplement this Regulation by the addition of new
non-essential elements, they should be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with
scrutiny provided for in Article 5a of Decision 1999/468/EC.

Since the objectives of this Regulation, namely the realisation of the internal market through the
introduction of common technical requirements concerning emissions from motor vehicles and guar-
anteed access to vehicle repair and maintenance information for independent operators on the same
basis as for authorised dealers and repairers, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States
and can therefore be better achieved at Community level, the Community may adopt measures, in
accordance with the principle of subsidiarity, as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty. In accordance with
the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Regulation does not go beyond what is
necessary in order to achieve those objectives,

HAVE ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

CHAPTER I

Subject matter, scope and definitions

Article 1

Subject matter

1.
This Regulation establishes common technical requirements for the type approval of motor vehicles

CHAPTER II

Manufacturers' type-approval obligations

Article 4

Manufacturers' obligations

1. Manufacturers shall demonstrate that all new vehicles sold, registered or put into service in the
Community are type approved in accordance with this Regulation and its implementing measures. Manufac-
turers shall also demonstrate that all new replacement pollution control devices requiring type approval
which are sold or put into service in the Community are type approved in accordance with this Regulation
and its implementing measures.

These obligations include meeting the emission limits set out in Annex I and the implementing measures
referred to in Article 5.

2. Manufacturers shall ensure that type approval procedures for verifying conformity of production,
durability of pollution control devices and in-service conformity are met.

In addition, the technical measures taken by the manufacturer must be such as to ensure that the tailpipe
and evaporative emissions are effectively limited, pursuant to this Regulation, throughout the normal life of
the vehicles under normal conditions of use. Therefore, in-service conformity measures shall be checked for
a period of up to 5 years or 100 000 km, whichever is the sooner. Durability testing of pollution control
devices undertaken for type approval shall cover 160 000 km. To comply with this durability test, the manu-
facturers should have the possibility to make use of test bench ageing, subject to the implementing measures
referred to in paragraph 4.

In-service conformity shall be checked, in particular, for tailpipe emissions as tested against emission limits
set out in Annex I. In order to improve control of evaporative emissions and low ambient temperature emis-
sions, the test procedures shall be reviewed by the Commission.

3. Manufacturers shall set out carbon dioxide emissions and fuel consumption figures in a document
given to the purchaser of the vehicle at the time of purchase.

The specific procedures and requirements for the implementation of paragraphs 2 and 3 shall be estab-

4.
lished in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 15(2).

constructed and assembled so as to enable the vehicle, in normal use, to comply with this Regulation and its
implementing measures.

The use of defeat devices that reduce the effectiveness of emission control systems shall be prohibited.

2.
The prohibition shall not apply where:

(a)

the need for the device is justified in terms of protecting the engine against damage or accident and for
safe operation of the vehicle;

(b) the device does not function beyond the requirements of engine starting; or

(c)

the conditions are substantially included in the test procedures for verifying evaporative emissions and
average tailpipe emissions.

3.
The specific procedures, tests and requirements for type approval set out in this paragraph, as well as
requirements for the implementation of paragraph 2, which are designed to amend non-essential elements
of this Regulation, by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with
scrutiny referred to in Article 15(3). This shall include establishing the requirements relating to:

(a)

tailpipe emissions, including test cycles, low ambient temperature emissions, emissions at idling speed,
smoke opacity and correct functioning and regeneration of after-treatment systems;

(b) evaporative emissions and crankcase emissions;

(c) OBD systems and in-use performance of pollution control devices;

(d) durability of pollution control devices, replacement pollution control devices,

in-service conformity,

biogas.

The above requirements shall, where relevant, apply to vehicles regardless of the type of fuel by which they
are powered.

CHAPTER III

Access to vehicle repairand maintenance information

Article 6

Manufacturers' obligations

1. Manufacturers shall provide unrestricted and standardised access to vehicle repair and maintenance
information to independent operators through websites using a standardised format in a readily accessible
and prompt manner, and in a manner which is non-discriminatory compared to the provision given or
access granted to authorised dealers and repairers. With a view to facilitating the achievement of this objec-
tive, the information shall be submitted in a consistent manner, initially in accordance with the technical
requirements of the OASIS format (1). Manufacturers shall also make training material available to indepen-
dent operators and authorised dealers and repairers.

(1) The ‘OASIS format’ refers to the technical specifications of OASIS Document SC2-D5, Format of Automotive Repair
Information, version 1.0, 28 May 2003 (available at: http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/2412/Draft
%20Committee%20Specification.pdf) and of Sections 3.2, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8 of OASIS Document SC1-D2, Autore-
pair Requirements Specification, version 6.1, dated 10.1.2003 (available at: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/autore-
pair/200302/pdf00005.pdf), using only open text and graphic formats.

The information referred to in paragraph 1 shall include:

(a) an unequivocal vehicle identification;

(b) service handbooks;

(c)

technical manuals;

(d) component and diagnosis information (such as minimum and maximum theoretical values for

measurements);

(e) wiring diagrams;

(f) diagnostic trouble codes (including manufacturer specific codes);

(g) the software calibration identification number applicable to a vehicle type;

(h) information provided concerning, and delivered by means of, proprietary tools and equipment; and

(i) data record information and two-directional monitoring and test data.

3.
Authorised dealers or repairers within the distribution system of a given vehicle manufacturer shall be
regarded as independent operators for the purposes of this Regulation to the extent that they provide repair
or maintenance services for vehicles in respect of which they are not members of the vehicle manufacturer's
distribution system.

The vehicle repair and maintenance information shall always be available, except as required for main-

4.
tenance purposes of the information system.

For the purposes of manufacture and servicing of OBD-compatible replacement or service parts and
5.
diagnostic tools and test equipment, manufacturers shall provide the relevant OBD and vehicle repair and
maintenance information on a non-discriminatory basis to any interested component, diagnostic tools or
test equipment manufacturer or repairer.

6.
For the purposes of the design and manufacture of automotive equipment for alternative fuel vehicles,
manufacturers shall provide the relevant OBD and vehicle repair and maintenance information on a non-
discriminatory basis to any interested manufacturer, installer or repairer of equipment for alternative fuel
vehicles.

7. When applying for EC type approval or national type approval, the manufacturer shall provide the
type approval authority with proof of compliance with this Regulation relating to access to vehicle repair
and maintenance information and to the information referred to in paragraph 5. In the event that such
information is not yet available, or does not yet conform to this Regulation and its implementing measures
at that point in time, the manufacturer shall provide it within six months from the date of type approval. If
such proof of compliance is not provided within that period, the approval authority shall take appropriate
measures to ensure compliance.

The manufacturer shall make subsequent amendments and supplements to vehicle repair and maintenance
information available on its websites at the same time they are made available to authorised repairers.

Article 7

Fees for access to vehicle repair and maintenance information

1. Manufacturers may charge reasonable and proportionate fees for access to vehicle repair and mainte-
nance information covered by this Regulation; a fee is not reasonable or proportionate if it discourages
access by failing to take into account the extent to which the independent operator uses it.

2. Manufacturers shall make available vehicle repair and maintenance information on a daily, monthly,
and yearly basis, with fees for access to such information varying in accordance with the respective periods
of time for which access is granted.

Article 11

Type approval of replacement parts

1.
For new replacement pollution control devices intended to be fitted on vehicles approved under this
Regulation, national authorities shall prohibit their sale or installation on a vehicle if they are not of a type
in respect of which a type approval has been granted in compliance with this Regulation and its imple-
menting measures.

2.
National authorities may continue to grant extensions to EC type approvals for replacement pollution
control devices intended for standards preceding this Regulation under the terms which originally applied.
National authorities shall prohibit the sale or installation on a vehicle of such replacement pollution control
devices unless they are of a type in respect of which a relevant type approval has been granted.

3.
Replacement pollution control devices intended to be fitted on vehicles type approved prior to the
adoption of component type approval requirements are exempt from the requirements of paragraphs 1 and
2.

Article 12

Financial incentives

1. Member States may make provision for financial incentives that apply to vehicles in series production
which comply with this Regulation and its implementing measures.

Those incentives shall be valid for all new vehicles offered for sale on the market of a Member State which
comply at least with the emission limit values in Table 1 of Annex I in advance of the dates set out in
Article 10(3); they shall cease on those dates.

Financial incentives that apply exclusively to vehicles which comply with the emission limit values in Table 2
of Annex I may be granted for such new vehicles offered for sale on the market of a Member State from the
dates set out in Article 10(3) in advance of the dates set out in Article 10(5); they shall cease on the dates
set out in Article 10(5).

2. Member States may grant financial incentives for the retrofitting of in-use vehicles and for scrapping
vehicles which do not comply.

3.
For each type of vehicle, the financial incentives referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 shall not exceed the
additional cost of the technical devices introduced to ensure compliance with the emission limits specified in
Annex I, including the cost of installation on the vehicle.

The Commission shall be informed in sufficient time of plans to institute or change the financial

4.
incentives referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2.

Article 13

Penalties

1. Member States shall lay down the provisions on penalties applicable for infringement by manufacturers
of the provisions of this Regulation and shall take all measures necessary to ensure that they are imple-
mented. The penalties provided for must be effective, proportionate and dissuasive. Member States shall
notify those provisions to the Commission by … (*) and shall notify it without delay of any subsequent
amendment affecting them.

(*) Eighteen months after the date of entry into force of this Regulation.

2.

The types of infringements which are subject to a penalty shall include:

(a) making false declarations during the approval procedures or procedures leading to a recall;

(b) falsifying test results for type approval or in-service conformity;

(c) withholding data or technical specifications which could lead to recall or withdrawal of type approval;

(d) use of defeat devices; and

(e) refusal to provide access to information.

CHAPTER V

Final provisions

Article 14

Redefinition of Specifications

1.
The Commission shall consider including methane emissions in the calculation of carbon dioxide emis-
sions. If necessary, the Commission shall present a proposal to the European Parliament and the Council
with measures to account for, or limit, methane emissions.

After the completion of

2.
the UN/ECE Particulate Measurement Programme, conducted under the
auspices of the World Forum for Harmonisation of Vehicle Regulations, and at the latest upon entry into
force of Euro 6, the Commission shall adopt the following measures, which are designed to amend
non-essential elements of this Regulation, inter alia by supplementing it, without lowering the existing ambi-
tion level with regard to the environment:

(a) amendment of this Regulation in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in
Article 15(3) for the purpose of recalibrating the particulate mass based limit values set out in Annex I
to this Regulation, and introducing particle number based limit values in that Annex so that they corre-
late broadly with the petrol and diesel mass limit values;

(b) adoption of a revised measurement procedure for particulates and a particle number limit value, in

accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 15(3).

3.
The Commission shall keep under review the procedures, tests and requirements referred to in
Article 5(3) as well as the test cycles used to measure emissions. If the review finds that these are no
longer adequate or no longer reflect real world emissions, they shall be adapted so as to adequately reflect
the emissions generated by real driving on the road. The necessary measures, which are designed to amend
non-essential elements of this Regulation, by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regu-
latory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 15(3).

The Commission shall keep under review the pollutants subject to the requirements and tests referred
4.
to in Article 5(3). If the Commission concludes that it is appropriate to regulate the emissions of additional
pollutants it shall present a proposal to the European Parliament and to the Council to amend this
Regulation accordingly.

5.
The Commission shall review the emission limits set out in Table 4 of Annex I for the carbon
monoxide and hydrocarbon tailpipe emissions after a cold start test and shall present, as appropriate, a
proposal to the European Parliament and to the Council with a view to tightening the emission limits.

6.
The relevant Annexes of Directive 2005/55/EC shall be amended in accordance with the regulatory
procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 15(3) so that they contain requirements for the type approval
of all vehicles covered by the scope of that Directive.

Recital 2 a (new)

(2a) Since the introduction of the common organisation of
the market (COM) in bananas, in response to competition
from third-country banana producers and with a view to
ensuring proper use of Community funds, the whole industry
has made major modernisation efforts covering all stages
from production to marketing, significantly raising produc-
tivity and improving product quality while reducing the
environmental impact of its activities. The COM has also
encouraged the concentration of Community supply, which
has contributed to the sector's consolidation in producer
regions and facilitated the marketing of European bananas.

(3) Bananas are one of the main agricultural crops of certain
outermost regions of the Union, notably the French overseas
departments of Guadeloupe and Martinique,
the Azores,
Madeira and the Canary Islands. Production of bananas is
handicapped in particular by the remoteness, insularity, small
size, and difficult topography of these regions. Local banana

Amendment 4

Recital 3a (new)

(3a) Account should be taken of the socio-economic impor-
tance of the banana sector to the outermost regions and the
contribution which it makes to achieving social and economic
cohesion on account of the income and employment which it
generates, the economic activities to which it gives rise (both
upstream and downstream), and the effect which it has of
maintaining an ecological and landscape balance which
encourages the development of tourism.

(5) Title III of Council Regulation (EC) No 247/2006 of
30 January 2006 laying down specific measures for agriculture
in the outermost regions of the Union provides for the estab-

most regions containing specific measures to assist local lines
of agricultural production. This Regulation provides for a
review not later than 31 December 2009. If there are substan-
tial changes to the economic conditions affecting livelihoods
in the outermost regions, the Commission shall submit the
report sooner. This instrument seems best adapted to support
banana production in each of
the regions concerned by
providing for flexibility and decentralisation of mechanisms to
including
support banana production. The possibility of
banana support in those support programmes should reinforce
the coherence of
the strategies for support of agricultural
production in these regions.

to take due account of the specific circumstances of banana
producers, in the event of a significant deterioration in the
economic situation of producers resulting in particular from
alterations to the external regime, the Commission should
submit a specific report to the European Parliament and the
Council prior to that deadline. This instrument seems best

Information and infrastructure measures in the context

standards, such as fair-trade, organic farming, and local vari-
registered geographical guarantees of

AMENDMENTS
BY PARLIAMENT

(8c) Complete integration into the single payment scheme
of the current support scheme in the banana sector would
bring a significant risk of production disruption to the
banana producing regions of the Community. A part of the
support should therefore continue to be linked to the cultiva-
tion of bananas through a crop specific payment per eligible
hectare. The amount of support should be calculated in such
a way so as to ensure economic conditions which, in regions
which lend themselves to that crop, enable activity in the
banana sector to continue and prevent bananas from being
driven out by other crops. In order to achieve that goal, it is
justified that the total available aid per hectare per Member
State is set at 40 % of the national share of the aid that went
indirectly to the producers.

(9) For sake of consistency it is appropriate abolish the
existing compensatory aid scheme for bananas and to include
it into the Single Payment Scheme. To this end it is necessary
to include the compensatory aid for bananas in the list of
direct payments in relation to the single payment scheme
referred to in Article 33 of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003.
Provision should also be made for the establishment by
Member States of reference amounts and eligible hectares
under the Single Payment Scheme on the basis of a represen-
tative period appropriate to the banana market and of appro-
priate objective and non-discriminatory criteria. Areas
planted with bananas should not be excluded due to their
being treated as permanent crops. National ceilings should be
amended appropriately. Provision should also be made for the
Commission to adopt detailed rules and any necessary transi-
tional measures.

Amendment 15

Recital 11

(11) The regime has succeeded in its first objective since the
vast majority of Community producers are now members of
producers' organisations. The second objective is obsolete since
the compensatory aid scheme is to be abolished. It is therefore
no longer necessary to maintain rules at Community level on
producer organisations, thus leaving Member States free to
adopt such rules, if necessary, targeted at the specific situa-
tions in their territories.

(11) The regime has succeeded in its first objective since the
vast majority of Community producers are now members of
producers' organisations. It is therefore necessary to maintain
rules at Community level on producer organisations. In order
to prevent the break-up of the banana sector in producer
regions, it is proposed that a framework of Community rules
be maintained, and Member States are urged to maintain the
requirement that produce be marketed through these producer
organisations as an essential condition for receiving aid.

Parliament and the Commission,

— having regard to Rules 33 and 103(4) of its Rules of Procedure,

A. whereas 2007 will be a crucial year for the European integration process, given that the European Union
will welcome two new Member States, Romania and Bulgaria, celebrate the 50th anniversary of the
Treaty of Rome, strive to achieve an institutional settlement, and launch an extensive series of new finan-
cing programmes,

B. whereas it is essential for the Union to be able to meet ambitious political, economic and social goals for
its citizens, and to serve the European common interest in making the Union a leading global player
promoting shared solutions for peace, security, global prosperity and sustainable economic and social
development,

C. having regard to the need to align expenditure closely with political priorities, given that the means

provided in the new financial framework are insufficient to meet all the challenges ahead,

D. reiterating the need for Europe to take action in order to meet the increased expectations of citizens and

to improve its role as a leading player on the world stage,

1. Welcomes the emphasis in the Commission's Legislative and Work Programme (LWP) for 2007 on
modernising the European economy and improving the well-being of citizens; agrees in this context with
the importance attributed to security, health, innovation, a cleaner environment, energy and climate change,
the internal market, migration and integration, Europe's global visibility and effectiveness, and improved
communication with European citizens; regrets, however, a certain lack of ambition in several fields; believes
that, in order to restore the momentum behind the European project, the Commission should play its full
role in strengthening and modernising Europe's social market economy, based on sustainable development;

2.
Believes that the distinction drawn between ‘strategic initiatives’ and ‘priority initiatives’ increases the
clarity and credibility of the LWP; requests, nevertheless, the Commission to be more coherent and precise
in explaining the distinction between those two categories, and in particular to clarify the timescale for the
presentation of ‘priority initiatives’;
invites the Commission to present after six months an update on
progress made in implementing the LWP;

3. Welcomes the fact that the Commission has endorsed a range of the contributions made by the
committees of Parliament in the framework of the new ‘structured dialogue’ and outlined in the summary
report of the Conference of Committee Chairmen;

4. Asks the Commission nevertheless to inform Parliament why it chose not to include the following legis-
lative initiatives in its 2007 work programme, as requested by its committees: mutual recognition in trade in
goods, proposals to improve the CE mark, revision of the European Company Statute, the development
of microcredits, reconciling work and family life, the protection of atypical workers, a new proposal on a
European mutual society, thresholds for seeds containing GMOs, and a proposal on the Transparency
Initiative;

5.
Believes that the operation of the Framework Agreement on relations between Parliament and the
Commission can and should be improved by involving the political groups more consistently and at an
early stage in the procedure;

6. Regrets the lack of interaction between the LWP and the budget procedure; in line with the Framework
Agreement between Parliament and the Commission, wishes to improve the linkage between the two proce-
dures, and looks forward to a discussion on how to do so;

7. Calls on the Commission to engage in an early dialogue with Parliament on the crucial revision of the
EU budgetary framework and the financial framework, the mid-term review of the CAP, and the discussion
on new mechanisms for own resources;

8 Welcomes the Commission's intention to better connect Europe with its citizens through an improved
communications strategy designed to improve awareness and understanding of the EU at national, regional
and local levels; supports all initiatives to build partnerships and to listen and respond more systematically
to the concerns of citizens;

Wednesday, 13 December 2006

9. Underlines to this end, in particular, the need to coordinate communications policy more closely with
national governments and political parties, with the aim of launching an effective open dialogue with citi-
zens on European issues; believes that Members can contribute to this process and expects the Commission
to cooperate closely with Parliament when developing and implementing its communications policy;

10. Notes the Commission's determination to be involved in the drafting of the Berlin Declaration on the
50th anniversary of the Treaty of Rome; believes it important that this declaration should have a genuinely
interinstitutional character, with Parliament, the Council and the Commission jointly involved; believes that
such a declaration should contribute inter alia to reasserting the values and identity of the Union and
promoting institutional reform in Europe;

11. Welcomes the desire of the Commission to engage actively in the process of helping secure the adop-
tion of a European constitutional treaty; believes that the objectives and reforms enshrined in that treaty are
essential to the sound functioning and future development of the Union;
in
conjunction with Parliament, to take a leading role in finding a workable solution to the current institutional
impasse;

invites the Commission,

Priorities for 2007

Modernising the European economy

12. Welcomes the strong emphasis in the Commission's programme on the continuing need for moderni-
sation of the European economy, to render it more dynamic and competitive in the face of global challenges;
underlines the importance accorded to vigorous implementation of
the Lisbon strategy, emphasising
the interdependence of economic, social and environmental progress in creating a dynamic and innovative
European economy; reiterates its support for a European agenda in which prosperity and solidarity are
mutually supporting objectives, and calls on the Commission to take action to reflect that;

13. Calls on the Commission to improve the coordination of economic policies, in particular with a view
to promoting national and European initiatives aimed at fostering research, skills and new technologies, to
sharing best practices on ways to improve the effectiveness and quality of public spending, and to enhancing
the quality of statistical data;

Research and development

14. Reiterates the urgency of
the
European economy, in particular in the areas of advanced technologies; urges that enhanced coordinated
efforts be undertaken to promote the telecoms and information society technology sectors;

fostering cooperative research to improve the competitiveness of

Believes that the establishment of the proposed European Institute of Technology (EIT), if it is based
15.
on the right principles, could contribute to the competitiveness of the European economy by helping to
reverse the fragmentation of research, education and innovation efforts which has stunted progress so far;
insists that no funds previously earmarked for the Seventh Framework Programme should be used to
finance EIT activities;

16. Welcomes the Commission proposals for the Erasmus Mundus II programme, aimed at fostering coop-
eration with third countries in the field of higher education; stresses, however, the need to undertake further
initiatives to promote excellence in European universities, higher education and life-long learning, as well as
better knowledge of languages;

17. Underlines the strategic significance of the rapidly developing space sector, and thus fully supports the
Commission in its initiative to develop a coherent and comprehensive European space policy;

Internal market

18. Calls on the Commission to step up efforts to complete the internal market, so as to enable citizens to
reap its full benefits; believes, however, that the Single Market Strategy review should not provide a pretext
for failing to bring forward internal market initiatives as necessary; insists that the single market can only be
developed successfully in a context of promoting fair competition, cohesion, a high level of consumer
protection, and respect for the Göteborg principles;

C 317 E/470

EN

23.12.2006

Wednesday, 13 December 2006

19. Reiterates its request to the Commission that it should explore all possible ways of improving the
patent and patent litigation systems;

20.
Stresses the importance of completing the internal market in the field of financial services and insur-
ance, and, in particular, of the Commission's commitment to proposing the modernisation of legislation on
solvency, investment funds (UCITS) and VAT treatment for financial services; nevertheless considers that a
key priority for 2007 in the field of financial services legislation should be the proper implementation and
timely application of legislation already adopted in recent years; in this respect, invites the Commission to
report on the possible impact of private equity funds and hedge funds on financial stability, economic
performance and employment;

Addressing the challenges of European society

21. Notes that the Commission is planning to undertake a ‘comprehensive stocktaking of European
society’, but calls on it to be more ambitious and, given that 2007 will be the European Year of Equal
Opportunities, to come forward with a number of initiatives in the areas of social exclusion, poverty, protec-
tion of atypical workers and better social protection in new forms of employment, as well as an evaluation
of the implementation of EU legislation on the fight against all forms of discrimination, and any necessary
initiative in this field;

22. Calls for a proper follow-up to the Commission communication concerning a consultation on action
at EU level to promote the inclusion of the people furthest from the labour market (COM(2006)0044);

23. Calls on the Commission to identify a clear legal basis for combating all forms of violence, in particu-
lar against women and children;

24. Welcomes in this context the Commission's objective of exploring possible pathways to enhance flexi-
curity and to help Member States to achieve both high productivity and high social protection;

Consumer protection

25. Asks the Commission for new impetus in the field of consumer protection, in particular with a view
to consolidating and reviewing the consumer acquis to reinforce the effectiveness of consumer protection
policy and consumer rights, ensuring protection of vulnerable consumers, strengthening information and
awareness for consumers on rights and redress — e.g. by means of a EU-wide information campaign — and
protecting the interests of consumers in related policy areas; points out in that context that legislation on
consumer protection should by no means constitute a channel for the creation of new barriers within the
internal market, but ensure instead that consumers in all the Member States benefit from the high-level
protection already achieved;

Therefore welcomes the Action Plan on Sustainable Production and Consumption, as it integrates both

26.
the social and economic dimensions;

Security for citizens, justice and migration

27. Demands the Member States' and the Commission's commitment to address the structural causes of
massive migration by adapting and updating their current policies, in order to enable developing countries
to protect and build their economies, and to allow decent incomes for their populations, which constitutes
the only long-term alternative in order to reduce illegal immigration;

28. Calls on the Member States to strengthen cooperation and mutual technical assistance between their
border control services and for increased financing for Frontex, in order to combat human trafficking;
requests that the conclusion of readmission agreements be fair and respect the fundamental rights of
migrants and take into consideration the shared needs of Member States and of the countries of origin and
transit;

29.
Believes that a common immigration, visa and asylum policy, as well as an effective economic and
social integration of immigrants on the basis of common principles, must be at the heart of EU action for
2007; welcomes the proposed Commission initiatives on labour immigration and on sanctions for
employers of illegally resident third country nationals; reiterates its call for a move to the codecision proce-
dure and qualified-majority voting in all areas related to immigration;

30.
Stresses the need for a common EU visa policy, with the conclusion of the VIS (Visa Information
System) being a key element of this objective; stresses, however, its concern in relation to data protection,
access to data and the interoperability of databases and regrets that the framework decision on data protec-
tion under the third pillar remains blocked in the Council;

31.
Strongly supports the Commission in its intention to update the framework decision on the fight
against terrorism, in particular by addressing the problems of the spread of explosives and the transmission
of expertise, and by combating terrorism propaganda, yet stresses that increased security for citizens must
not compromise the protection of their fundamental rights;

Insists on the need to tackle cyber-crime, as well as to improve border controls and the management

32.
of visa requests, whilst emphasising the importance of the rapid entry into force of both SIS II and VIS;

33. Urges the Commission to put forward in 2007 a report on how the rights of seasonal workers in the
EU can be safeguarded in order to avoid abuses and violation of core labour standards, as is currently the
case;

34. Recalls that much remains to be done to secure fair and efficient access to justice for everyone; calls
for more initiatives in the field of civil justice in order to deliver the balanced legal framework that would
give security and access to justice;

Secure, competitive and sustainable energy

35. Welcomes the Commission's proposal to make the development of ‘European energy policy’ a strategic
objective for 2007, based on the principles of security and diversity of supply, sustainability, efficiency and
greater energy independence;

Stresses that an essential element of a common energy policy should be enhanced solidarity between
36.
Member States in order to deal with difficulties related to the physical security of infrastructures and security
of supply; considers, furthermore, that such enhanced solidarity would considerably strengthen the capacity
of the EU to defend its common interest on energy issues at international level;

37.
Strongly holds the view that an essential part of maintaining security of supply is the rapid transposi-
tion of current EU law by all Member States to achieve a fully functioning internal market in electricity and
gas so as to enhance competitiveness, transparency and energy efficiency;

38. Urges Member States to create an EU internal energy market by setting a balance between internal and
external sources of supply and ensuring interoperability of national energy grids;

39. Asks the Commission to better develop the synergies between economic development, on the one
hand, and development and use of clean and energy-saving technologies, on the other, as complementarities
are strong and constitute a potential source of increased competitiveness;

Making Europe a better place to live

Environment and sustainable development

40. Underlines the leading role of the European Union at international level in promoting environmental
issues, and agrees that, in the following years, efforts should be directed towards the protection of biodiver-
sity and towards climate change, especially by developing the concept of ‘green diplomacy’, as well as
towards seeking a specific energy policy focused on increasing the share of renewable energy, energy saving
and efficiency in Europe;

41. Calls on the Commission to support a strong role for the EU in devising post-Kyoto policies and new
targets; welcomes in this respect the proposed Green Paper on post-2012 climate change, which will help
identify areas in which action is needed;

Expects the proposal to review the EU emissions trading scheme to aim at improving the environ-

42.
mental effectiveness of the scheme, thereby also including aviation emissions in it;

43. Urges the Commission to better coordinate transport and environment policy in the spirit of sustain-
able development, proposing concrete targets for CO2 reduction for the total vehicle fleet and integrating air
transport into the binding obligations of the Kyoto Protocol;

44. Regrets that the protection and conservation of biodiversity in the EU has not been highlighted as a
priority for 2007, and all the more warmly encourages the Commission to take the lead in facing the global
challenge of biodiversity loss, whilst ensuring the proper management of the NATURA 2000 network, espe-
cially in marine zones;

45. Calls on the Commission to take the necessary initiatives to enable the creation of a better environ-
ment for developing non-CO2 energy sources; underlines the fact that climate change has consequences not
only for the environment, but also for health and therefore asks the Commission to address new threats and
long-term effects;

Health

46. Welcomes the Commission's contribution to shaping health policy in Europe, and strongly believes
that the protection and promotion of health should constitute an underlying component of EU policies;

47. Underlines the fact that an effective European health strategy calls for improved collaboration between
health services, in particular as regards patient mobility and patient safety (e.g. drug counterfeiting), informa-
tion for patients on pharmaceuticals, and lifestyle changes, and in addressing the challenges of healthy
ageing;

Agriculture and fisheries

48. Notes the Commission's intention to bring forward a proposal on the simplification of the CAP as
well as on a single common market organisation (CMO), in line with the objectives of simplification and
transparency; stresses that in view of the revision of the budgetary framework the regional, social and envir-
onmental role of the CAP should be enhanced, together with the stabilisation of the Community agricultural
funds;

49. Welcomes the stepping up of simplification initiatives in the field of the CAP and attaches particular
importance to the Commission's commitment
the cross-compliance
system; expresses its support for the Commission's intention to recast and modernise existing feed labelling
requirements;

to report on the operation of

50. Welcomes the proposed regulation aimed at stepping up the fight against illegal, unreported and unre-
gulated fishing, given in particular the considerable losses which such fishing causes to coastal communities
and to legally operating fishermen; regrets, however, the general lack of initiative and political impulse in the
CFP field, which is necessary to confront new challenges both within the EU and internationally;

Europe as a world partner

Neighbourhood policy

51. Welcomes the commitment by the Commission to give priority to strengthening the European
Neighbourhood Policy, but believes that concrete proposals and steps are needed to give content to this
commitment; warns against the risk that the European Neighbourhood Policy may limit itself to bilateral
and administrative or ‘bureaucratic’ relations with the countries concerned; expresses the view that certain
features of the policy ought to be revised, in order to take account of the expectations of the various coun-
tries concerned and to tailor arrangements better to their needs; calls in this respect for the Parliament to be
involved in the process;

52. Calls on the Commission to draw up an annual report on compliance with the human rights and
democracy clause of the agreements with Neighbourhood Policy countries, accompanied by a detailed
evaluation and recommendations dealing with the effectiveness and coherence of the action taken;

Stability and democracy in South East Europe

the countries of South East Europe are coming closer to acquiring the accession

momentum referred to in the ‘Thessaloniki Declaration’, and expects the Union to take a leading role in
consolidating stability and increasing prosperity in the Western Balkans, thus helping the countries of the
region on their way to EU membership;

Russia

54. Reminds the Commission that the current Partnership and Cooperation Agreement with Russia will
expire in 2007; calls on the Commission to propose guiding principles for the strategic content of the EU's
relations with Russia, and in particular to emphasise the importance of placing democracy, human rights
and freedom of expression at the core of future relations, establishing a clear mechanism for monitoring the
implementation of all the clauses of such an agreement;

Development policy

55. Requests the Member States and the Commission to be more ambitious in respecting their commit-
ment to the Millennium Development Goals, and calls on the Commission to come forward with concrete
proposals for alternative financing of development programmes;

Believes that, in order to enable the ACP countries to meet their development goals, the regional
56.
development aspect should be properly respected in negotiations on the Economic Partnership Agreements;

Trade policy and WTO negotiations

57. At multilateral level, calls for a successful and ambitious outcome of the Doha Round; regrets that it
was necessary to suspend the negotiations on the Doha Development Agenda sine die and points out that a
failure of multilateral negotiations and a shift to bilateral/regional agreements could lead to an unequal
process of liberalisation and uneven development and would thus adversely affect the least developed coun-
tries in particular;

ESDP

58.
Stresses the need to strengthen the mechanisms for parliamentary oversight of the development of the
European Security and Defence Policy (ESDP) in general, and ESDP missions in particular, and highlights the
need to provide information proactively and to conduct debates before joint actions in the field of ESDP are
decided on, so that Parliament can voice its opinion and concerns;

Better lawmaking

59. Underlines the need to accelerate the simplification and consolidation of EU legislation and to put
more effort into better regulation, prompt transposition and correct implementation of EU legislation; calls
for a stronger monitoring and enforcement mechanism in respect of the implementation of EU legislation in
the Member States;

Insists that all simplification initiatives comply fully with all the principles and conditions outlined in

60.
its resolution of 16 May 2006 on the strategy for simplification of the regulatory environment (1);

Impact assessments

61. Welcomes the inclusion of impact assessments in the legislative process, and the fact that the LWP
highlights agreement on the need for high-quality legislation, with the Commission undertaking to carry out
impact assessments on all strategic and priority initiatives; insists on the need for independent impact assess-
ments, but emphasises that these should not lead to unjustified delays in Commissions proposals; recalls
that ‘better regulation’ does not necessarily mean deregulation or forms of minimal regulation;

Soft law

62. Regrets the increasing use by the Commission of soft law, such as recommendations and interpretative
communications, thereby circumventing the prerogatives of the legislative authority;

Monitoring of implementation and enforcement of the acquis

63. Regrets that the Commission has only offered a weak response to Parliament's request concerning
implementation of EU legislation in the Member States;

64. Requests the Commission to make the whole process of transposition and implementation more
transparent and to persuade Member States to produce the ‘correlation tables’ that show exactly which parts
of any piece of legislation derive from the EU and from national law respectively;

Budgetary responsibility

65.
Expects all new reforms set out in the new Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 on budgetary
discipline and sound financial management to be fully implemented in the course of 2007, thus enabling a
swift result in terms of higher-quality implementation of the budget;

66. Asks the Commission to ensure, facilitate and encourage the total implementation of the EU budget,
in particular in the new Member States, given the fact that 2007 will be a crucial year for the implementa-
tion of the new structural policy; asks the Commission to apply all the necessary measures in order to
ensure that the operational programmes for the new financing period, in accordance with the strategic
guidelines for cohesion, are ready and implemented on time for all Member States;

67. Underlines the importance it attaches to the reform agenda, in particular in the field of the fight
against fraud and mismanagement, as any such cases help to increase EU scepticism; deplores the fact that
the Commission seems to have downgraded its original reform programme; in this context calls on the
Commission to continue its work on the Action Plan for an Integrated Internal Control Framework and the
Transparency Initiative;

on EU-Russia relations following the murder of
its
resolution of 23 March 2006 on security of energy supply in the European Union (2) and its resolution
of 26 May 2005 on EU-Russia relations (3),

the Russian journalist Anna Politkovskaya (1),

— having regard to the outcome of the 18th EU-Russia Summit, held in Helsinki on 24 November 2006,

— having regard to Rule 103(4) of its Rules of Procedure,

A. whereas relations between the EU and Russia have been steadily developing over the past few years,
leading to deep and comprehensive economic integration and interdependency, which is bound to
increase even more in the near future,

B. whereas enhanced cooperation and good-neighbourly relations between the EU and Russia are of key

importance to the stability, security and prosperity of the whole of Europe,

C. whereas the conclusion of a Strategic Partnership Agreement between the EU and the Russian Federation
is of the utmost importance for this greater cooperation, in particular with regard to the further develop-
ment of economic relations based on equality, transparency and respect for internationally recognised
procedures, to the strengthening of security and stability in Europe by finding peaceful political solutions
to regional conflicts in the joint neighbourhood, and to the further strengthening of respect for human
rights, respect for the rule of law and a democratic framework as a basis for these relations,

D. whereas the rapid implementation of the four common areas, with a common economic area, an area of
freedom, security and justice, an area of external security and an area of research, education and culture,
should be at the heart of the negotiations on the new Strategic Partnership Agreement,

E. whereas security of energy supply is one of the biggest challenges for Europe and one of the major fields
of cooperation with Russia, and whereas the EU imports approximately a quarter of its gas and oil from
Russia and is the most reliable consumer of Russian exports,

F. whereas the above-mentioned EU-Russia Summit of 24 November 2006 was intended to mark the start
of a new phase in EU-Russia relations and, in particular, to launch negotiations on a new framework
agreement between the EU and Russia to replace the PCA, which expires in 2007,

G. whereas Poland has blocked the start of the negotiations on the new framework agreement, making the
start of the negotiations conditional upon Moscow lifting a ban on Polish meat imports introduced in
2005,

H. whereas on 10 November 2006 Russia imposed a new embargo on imports of Polish meat and poultry
products, saying that it was concerned about breaches of veterinary regulations; whereas Russia has
recently also imposed a ban on imports of fish and fish products from the EU; whereas ahead of the
above-mentioned EU-Russia Summit of 24 November 2006 Russia threatened to extend the former ban
to the whole of the EU over concerns about swine fever in Romania and Bulgaria,

I. whereas the recent killings of prominent opponents of the Russian Government have caused great

concern in the whole of Europe,

J. whereas there is widespread concern in Russia, the EU and elsewhere over democracy and human rights
in Russia and the inability of the Russian police and judicial authorities to find those responsible for poli-
tical murders,

K. whereas border-crossing formalities are very slow at the EU-Russian borders, causing intolerable queues

of lorries at some checkpoints,

1. Acknowledges the importance of Russia as a strategic cooperation partner, with which the EU shares
not only economic and trade interests but also the objective of cooperating closely in the international arena
as well as in the common neighbourhood;

2.
Stresses the importance of unity and solidarity among the EU Member States in their relations
with Russia; welcomes, therefore, the common EU line established at the unofficial Lahti Summit on
20 October 2006, enabling the EU to speak with one voice at its meetings with President Vladimir Putin in
Lahti and in Helsinki;

3. Welcomes the open discussions on democracy and human rights at the above-mentioned EU-Russia
Summit of 24 November 2006 and the Lathi Summit; emphasises, however, that the current situation in
Russia gives rise to serious concern in terms of respect for human rights, democracy, freedom of expression
and the rights of civil society and individuals to challenge and hold the authorities accountable for their
actions;

4. Regrets the failure of the above-mentioned EU-Russia Summit of 24 November 2006 to launch negotia-
tions on a new framework agreement between the EU and Russia and encourages the Finnish and German
Presidencies to continue to work to enable the negotiating mandate for a new agreement to be adopted as
soon as possible and to start negotiations without further delay;

Stresses that a robust defence of human rights and democratic values should be a core principle of any
5.
EU engagement with Russia; urges the Commission to send a clear signal to all parties involved that these
values will not have a subsidiary status in the EU-Russia negotiating package;

6. Regrets that the fourth round of the EU-Russia human rights consultations has brought about no
substantial progress in this field, which should be a priority in bilateral relations; calls therefore on the
Russian Government to contribute to the intensification of the EU-Russia human rights consultations as an
essential part of the EU-Russia partnership, and to allow the free functioning of domestic and international
human rights organisations and other NGOs and to protect the personal safety of human rights defenders;
calls on the Commission and the Council to ensure that any financial assistance granted to Russia is linked
to the development of democratic standards in that country;

7.
Expresses its deep concern at the latest reports from international human rights organisations and
United Nations (UN) experts about the use of torture in Russian prisons and police stations and in secret
detention centres in Chechnya, which includes inhumane and degrading acts committed by public officials;
strongly condemns such practices and calls on the Russian authorities to investigate the abuses, immediately
put an end to any misconduct and prosecute the perpetrators;

8.
Emphasises the need to work together with Russia as a necessary strategic partner to ensure peace,
stability and security and fight international terrorism and violent extremism, as well as address other
security issues such as environmental and nuclear hazards, drugs, trafficking in arms and human beings and
cross-border organised crime in the European neighbourhood in cooperation with the OSCE and other inter-
national fora;

9. Calls on the Commission and the Council to pursue joint initiatives with the Russian Government to
strengthen democracy, security and stability in the common neighbourhood, in particular by means of joint
activities to establish democracy and respect for basic human rights in Belarus and of joint efforts to finally
resolve the conflicts in Moldova, Georgia and Nagorno Karabakh; calls on the EU and Russia to assume
their responsibility as members of the Quartet (which also consists of the UN and the United States) for the
resolution of the Middle East conflict and to promote efforts to hold an international peace conference on a
regional Middle East peace agreement;

10.
Points out that progress towards signing and ratifying the outstanding border agreements between
Estonia and Russia and Latvia and Russia remains a high priority for EU-Russia relations, and that the issue
should be dealt with in a constructive and fair manner acceptable to all sides;

11. Deplores the disputes about the export of agricultural and fish products from the EU to Russia; is of
the opinion that the continuation of these trade disputes seriously endangers the further development of
relations between Russia and the EU; therefore calls on the Commission and the Russian Government to
resolve these outstanding trade disputes as a matter of urgency; insists that the EU show the necessary soli-
darity with all Member States, in particular Poland, which is suffering discrimination under Russia's trade
policy;

Wednesday, 13 December 2006

Expresses its concern about declarations by the Russian authorities to the effect that they will impose

12.
restrictions on EU agricultural products after the accession of Bulgaria and Romania;

13.
Expresses its deepest concern about the continuing series of murders of prominent persons, such as
Anna Politkovskaya, who oppose the current Russian Government or who have stood up for the basic
rights of Russian citizens; emphasises that the Council and the Commission must react with all their
authority and stresses that the partnership with Russia will seriously be affected if Russia fails to demonstrate
its ability and strong willingness to assist in the investigations to find the killers and to fulfil its duty to stop
this vicious circle and prosecute those responsible;

14. Urges the Russian Federation, as a member of the Council of Europe, to improve conditions for
prisoners and put an end to difficulties of access to some of them for lawyers; points out that according to
the Russian Criminal Code detainees should be imprisoned either close to their place of residence or close
to the place where the trial has taken place, as exemplified by the prisoners Mr Khodorkovsky and
Mr Lebedev;

15. Welcomes the agreement reached at the above-mentioned EU-Russia Summit of 24 November 2006
to phase out the fees which Russia charges to EU airlines flying over Siberia, resolving a 20-year dispute
between the two sides and paving the way for EU carriers to increase the number of routes to the growing
markets in Asia; notes that the dispute over charges, which cost EU airlines more than 250 million euro a
year, was one of the last hurdles the EU identified after its agreement with Russia on the country's accession
to the World Trade Organization (WTO), which will open up new possibilities for increased cooperation
and trade between the EU and Russia;

Expresses concern that recent changes to Part IV of the Russian Civil Code concerning intellectual
16.
property rights fall short of the standards required for the WTO (TRIPS), and still further short of the
deeper commitments envisaged for a strategic partnership;

17. Welcomes the intensified EU-Russia dialogue on energy issues; underlines the strategic importance of
cooperation on energy and the need to enhance EU-Russia energy relations; stresses that further cooperation
in this field must be based on the principles of interdependence and transparency, as well as the importance
of reciprocity in terms of access to markets, infrastructure and investment, with the objective of avoiding
oligopolistic market structures and diversifying the EU's energy supply; in this context, calls on Russia to
respect the principles of the Energy Charter Treaty, which entered into force in April 1998, and to increase
cooperation on energy efficiency, energy saving and renewable energy;

18. Calls on the Council and the Commission to redouble their efforts to solve the border-crossing
problems at the EU-Russian borders; points out that additional cross-border capacity must be built in order
to accommodate an increase in the flow of goods; urges the Russian authorities to reduce queuing at the
border by speeding up the inspections and by removing some of them from the border area to more remote
locations;

regional and cross-border cooperation with Russia;

certain definitions (working document ESC/43/2006) (the Draft Implementing Directive),

— having regard to the advice of the Committee on European Securities Regulators (the CESR) to the
European Commission on Clarification of Definitions concerning Eligible Assets for Investments of
UCITS of January 2006 (2),

— having regard to Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the

A. whereas assets which are eligible for UCITS have so far been interpreted differently by the supervisory
authorities in the Member States, which means that, in practice, different products have been offered as
UCITS,

B. whereas a uniform, Europe-wide clarification of certain definitions of eligible assets is necessary in order

to complete the single market,

1.
Takes the view that a regulation, rather than a directive, is the best option to ensure the uniform,
consistent and rapid transposition of the new definitions into national law; calls on the Commission to set
out the reasons for preferring a directive and to examine whether its proposal for a directive can be trans-
formed into a proposal for a regulation;

2.
Emphasises that the CESR has made a valuable contribution to the drafting of new definitions of eligible
assets for investments of UCITS and should therefore continue to be involved in its capacity as a so-called
Level 3 group, particularly in order to ensure the consistency of the definitions clarified in the implementing
measures in their day-to-day application; looks in this regard to CESR to issue a statement in the foreseeable
future on whether Hedge Fund Indices are eligible assets; notes that Hedge Fund Indices must fulfil the basic
criteria required to become eligible under UCITS III, such as sufficient diversification, the ability to serve as
an adequate benchmark and appropriate publication;

Transferable securities

Stresses the importance of a presumption of

3.
liquidity in relation to the transferable securities, as
referred to in Article 2(1) of the draft implementing directive, for the proper functioning of asset manage-
ment activities, and calls on the Commission to make provision for the inclusion of this principle at the
appropriate level;

Money market instruments

4. Calls on the Commission to extend the settlement period for money market instruments, which are
normally traded on the money markets, from one year to a maximum of precisely 397 days, which
will mean that money market instruments either have a maturity at issue of up to 397 days or have a
residual maturity of up to 397 days or undergo regular yield adjustments in line with money market
conditions at least every 397 days; points out in this regard that this amendment both takes into account
Directive 2004/39/EC (1) and allows comparability with the rules of the US Financial Supervisory Authority;

Financial indices

5. Notes that the UCITS-III Directive fails to stipulate whether the financial indices may be based only on
eligible assets or also on non-eligible assets and that Article 9 of the Draft Implementing Directive defines
both categories as eligible assets, provided that all the criteria for diversification set out in Article 22a(1) of
the UCITS-III Directive are met;

6.
Points out that Article 9 of the Draft Implementing Directive is intended to allow Member States to
raise the investment threshold for regulated markets in which certain financial market instruments and
securities are very dominant (from 20 % to 35 %); considers that this means that Article 9 of the Draft
Implementing Directive should refer not only to Article 22a(1), but also to Article 22a(2), of the UCITS-III
Directive;

7. Understands that, in accordance with Article 9(1)(a)(iii) of the Draft Implementing Directive, invest-
ments in indices that are composed of assets not set out in Article 19(1) of the UCITS-III Directive shall be
permissible; points out in this regard, however, that Article 9(1)(a)(iii) of the Draft Implementing Directive
does not deal adequately with some of these indices, because Article 22a(1) of the UCITS-III Directive, to
which it refers, establishes limitations only with regard to the issuers of shares or debt securities and does
not cover indices where diversification does not depend on the type of issuer, such as commodity indices,
where diversification depends on the type of commodity; calls on the Commission, therefore, to extend the
scope of Article 9(1)(a)(iii) of the Draft Implementing Directive to the effect that, where an index is
adequately captured by the UCITS risk management system, it shall be considered sufficiently diversified;

Takes the view that not only two-tier asset-backed commercial papers should be authorised as eligible

the Thessaloniki European Council of 19-20 June 2003 reaffirmed the commitment to full implementa-
tion of the Thessaloniki agenda, and the Brussels European Council of 15-16 June 2006 reaffirmed the
intention to honour the existing commitments made to the South-East European countries (Turkey and
Croatia, countries with which accession negotiations are underway, the Former Yugoslav Republic of
Macedonia/FYROM, as candidate country, and the Western Balkans countries, as potential candidates)
concerning enlargement, while emphasising the need to ensure that the Union ‘is able to function politi-
cally, financially and institutionally as it enlarges’,

the EU must proceed from its irreversible commitment to democracy and from its understanding that
democracy only functions if the demos — the citizenry of Europe — recognises and supports its own
enlargement through the accession of new Member States and integration of their citizens,

the European Parliament, in conjunction with national parliaments, and with the support of regional and
local authorities and civil society bodies, can contribute to improving transparency and accountability of
the enlargement process and thereby increase public consensus on this issue,

G. enlargement should — as laid down in the Treaty — contribute to the European integration process and
to the achievement of an ever closer union among the peoples of Europe but not undermine the political
nature of this project; it should promote peace, security, stability, democracy and prosperity in Europe,

H.

for that reason, the Union's integration capacity must be taken into account when consideration is given
to the future of the Union,

I.

the declaration issued at the European Council in Copenhagen of 21-22 June 1993 mentioned as an
important consideration ‘the Union's capacity to absorb new members, while maintaining the
momentum of European integration’,

J. Member States and the EU Institutions must address courageously the institutional, financial and political

factors which underlie the Union's capacity to integrate new Member States,

K.

this presupposes a thorough analysis of the implications which increased membership may entail for the
Union's cohesion policies and for its finances,

L.

integration capacity is an evolutionary concept which must be assessed regularly in the light of new
circumstances,

M.

integration capacity is based on objective criteria and addresses real problems and therefore should not
be confused with public perception of the impact of further enlargements,

N.

integration capacity is not a new criterion applicable to the candidate countries but a pre-requisite for
the success of enlargement and for deepening the process of European integration; responsibility for
improving its integration capacity lies with the Union and not with the candidate countries,

O. acceding and candidate countries must comply with the accession criteria established by the Copenhagen
(Copenhagen criteria) and all other obligations stemming from the Treaties and

European Council
bilateral agreements,

1. Agrees with the Commission that past enlargements have been a success, have strengthened the
European Union by stimulating its economic growth, reinforcing its role in the world and promoting the
development of new EU policies, and have promoted democracy, peace and prosperity in Europe; empha-
sises that enlargement in general is among the most effective instruments of foreign policy and conflict
prevention policies of the EU; recalls that this success derives from the widespread support for past enlarge-
ments as the fulfilment of the initial mission of European integration to reunite the European continent after
the political divisions of the twentieth century;

2. Notes nevertheless that lessons can be learned from past experience, notably the need to judge each
candidate country on its own merits and to negotiate its accession in accordance with a timetable based on
effective compliance with the Copenhagen criteria, as well as the need to avoid setting too early a date for
final accession;

Believes that these lessons should be used to improve the quality and transparency of the enlargement

3.
process;

4.
Is of the opinion that the Union should honour its commitments to the countries which already have
membership prospects, provided that those countries comply with the Copenhagen criteria and fulfil the
obligations arising therefrom; emphasises that fulfilment of these commitments is a strong incentive for
those countries to pursue their reforms;

5. Agrees that consolidation, conditionality and communication are the guiding principles of the EU's
enlargement strategy; is of the view that any further commitment to enlarge will require far more in-depth
scrutiny than ever before of the question of the Union's integration capacity, be it from an institutional,
financial or political standpoint;

Therefore regrets the Commission's failure to provide a sufficiently in-depth analysis of the issues which

6.
need to be resolved before the Union can proceed with further enlargements;

7. Considers the ‘Special report on the EU's capacity to integrate new members’
in Annex I of the
Communication, an unsatisfactory answer to Parliament's request, in paragraph 5 of its abovementioned
resolution of 16 March 2006, for a ‘report … setting out the principles which underpin this concept’;

8.
Is of the opinion that the integration capacity of the Union rests fundamentally on three pillars, namely
its institutions and their legitimacy and ability to act and take decisions democratically and efficiently under
new circumstances, its financial resources and their overall contribution to economic and social cohesion,
and the capacity of an enlarged Union to pursue its political objectives;

9. Recalls that responsibility for improving its integration capacity therefore lies with the Union and not
with the candidate countries;

10.
Believes that the EU can only expect its citizens to have a positive attitude towards enlargement if they
see a Europe that delivers results; emphasises, therefore, that integration capacity cannot be seen in isolation
from the EU's capacity to act; considers that enlargement should be a part of the Union's Citizens' Agenda
and should be communicated accordingly;

11. Considers that the Union's proper functioning rests on the unqualified adherence of all its members to
the universal values that underlie the EU as a political project: the inalienable and inviolable rights of the
human person, freedom, democracy, equality and the rule of law which make up the European identity;

12
Believes that any failure to ensure that the EU's integration capacity matches its enlargement agenda
would weaken the Union internally and externally and reduce the benefits of increased membership for all
its members, and that this effect would not be compensated by increased external size;

13. Criticises the Commission for the superficial way in which it deals with the institutional aspects, and
refers in this respect to its resolution of 13 December 2006 on the institutional aspects of the EU's capacity
to integrate new Member States (1);

14. Recalls the terms of its abovementioned resolution of 19 January 2006 and reaffirms that, following
the accession of Bulgaria and Romania, the Treaty of Nice will not provide an adequate basis for further
enlargements;

15.
Therefore urges the Heads of State and Government to conclude the constitutional process by the end
of 2008, as stated at the European Council in Brussels of June 2006, in order the enable the Union to
work more effectively, more transparently and more democratically, which is a pre-requisite for further
enlargements;

16. Reminds Heads of State and Government of their duty to complete this process before the next
European elections, so as to avoid delay in current accession negotiations;

Wednesday, 13 December 2006

Emphasises that the institutional reform of the Union is a need per se, regardless of further enlarge-

17.
ments, and should be pursued rigorously and expeditiously;

18. Confirms that accession negotiations will progress according to the merits and achievements of each
negotiating partner;

19. Welcomes and supports the Commission's commitment to improve the quality of the accession
process by making it more benchmark-driven and transparent and by systematically making impact assess-
ments on key policy areas at key stages of the process;

Takes the view that the planned revision of the Union's budget in 2008/2009 must take account of

20.
the future integration of the current candidate and pre-candidate countries;

21.
Points out that the Commission's Communication does not deal thoroughly with the financial implica-
tions of further enlargements and calls on the Commission to provide clear and credible estimates of the
budgetary implications before any further accession;

22. Reiterates that this debate involves difficult issues which might have implications for the Union's
common policies, including its cohesion policies;

23.
Takes the view that the financial implications of further enlargements, the complexity of which has
been implicitly recognised by Heads of State and Government when they declined to take them into account
in the 2007-2013 financial framework, must be urgently addressed; calls on the General Affairs and
ECOFIN Councils to hold a joint debate on this issue;

24.
Emphasises that compliance with the political criteria set out at the Copenhagen European Council,
including in the area of the rule of law, should be given greater priority than has hitherto been the case in
accession negotiations, and that a direct link should be established between those criteria and the start, as
well as the overall pace, of negotiations;

25. Welcomes in this respect the inclusion in the current negotiating framework of a chapter on Judiciary
and Fundamental Rights, covering the political issues, which will enable EU institutions to closely scrutinise
progress in these crucial areas;

26.
Is of the opinion that in previous enlargements progress in the fields of justice, corruption and funda-
mental rights did not receive enough attention in the early phases of negotiations; pledges to take a much
more active role in monitoring the accession process, with particular emphasis on its political aspects, and
calls upon the Council to do the same and to issue clear and duly reasoned recommendations to candidate
countries, rather than merely take note of technical progress in the negotiations;

27. Recalls the clear European membership prospects which the Thessaloniki European Council of
19-20 June 2003 offered to the western Balkan countries; remains fully committed to these prospects which
have to be maintained in order to consolidate stability and peace in the region; reminds those countries that
they will each be assessed on the basis of their own merits and that this will determine the pace of their
integration into the EU;

28. Welcomes the Council's decision of 13 November 2006 to adopt the negotiation mandates for
visa facilitation and re-admission agreements with western Balkan countries as a first step in promoting
people-to-people contacts between those countries and the EU; emphasises, however, that the objective is
visa-free travel;

29. Welcomes the continued progress made by the candidate country Croatia towards EU integration and
calls on the negotiators on both sides to maintain the momentum achieved in these negotiations, with a
view to their early conclusion;

30. Notes the Commission's Turkey 2006 Progress Report, which, whilst stating that political reforms in
Turkey have continued, points out that their pace has slowed down and confirms the shortcomings in the
reform process already laid out in Parliament's abovementioned resolution of 27 September 2006 on
Turkey's progress towards accession; insists that this also includes the ratification and full implementation by
Turkey of the Additional Protocol extending the EC-Turkey Association Agreement to the ten new Member
States, signed by Turkey in July 2005, in compliance with the EU Declaration of 21 September 2005;

31.
Stresses that the Turkish refusal to fully comply with the terms of the Additional Protocol is seriously
endangering the good progress of the accession negotiations; points out that the Council decision not to
open the negotiations on eight important chapters covering policy areas relevant to Turkey's restrictions as
regards the Republic of Cyprus and not to close provisionally any chapters is an unavoidable consequence of
Turkey's position on this issue; urges Turkey to cooperate in a constructive way to ensure full implementa-
tion of the Additional Protocol as soon as possible; welcomes in this respect the invitation addressed to the
Commission to submit yearly reports on progress made in addressing the issues covered by the EU declara-
tion of 21 September 2005;

32.
deplores the fact that the efforts of the Finnish Presidency to find a solution to the current stalemate
regarding the full implementation of the Additional Protocol the one hand and further alleviating the isola-
tion of the Turkish Cypriot Community on the other were not successful; calls on the German Presidency to
continue these efforts with determination in close co-operation with UN efforts;

Takes the view that the European Union must be prepared to adopt a timetable to ensure that the

33.
above goals can be achieved within a reasonable period of time;

34. Urges the Council to take on new commitments only on the basis of an in-depth assessment of their
institutional, financial, political and socio-economic consequences; therefore calls on the Commission to
provide comprehensive impact assessments whenever it considers new applications for membership and
when it submits its recommendations on the opening and closing of negotiations;

35. Recalls that, during accession negotiations, when the Council, acting by unanimity on a proposal of
the Commission, lays down benchmarks for the opening and provisional closure of each chapter, Member
States should act even-handedly with regard to all accession countries;

Believes that Parliament's right of assent should apply not just after the conclusion of the negotiation

36.
process but also before the opening of membership negotiations;

37. Notes that, as the EU continues to conduct, and open, enlargement negotiations with the countries of
the Balkans, tackling endemic corruption and regional organised crime networks will become an increasingly
important feature on the road to accession; strongly recommends, therefore, that current enlargement finan-
cial instruments are strengthened and re-focused so as to target, as a top priority, the fight against corrup-
tion and organised crime, with particular emphasis on reforming judiciaries, reinforcing public administra-
tive capacity and improving cross-border cooperation;

38. Reminds Member States' governments and national parliaments that it is their responsibility to inform
the public adequately about the benefits of past enlargements and the stakes involved in further enlarge-
ments, and that they should provide the public with reasons for the decisions they take, unanimously,
throughout the accession process;

39.
Therefore calls on the Commission to work together with Member States, the European Parliament
and national parliaments in order to communicate the enlargement agenda more effectively to the public,
thus improving the transparency of the process;

40. Welcomes the recommendation made by the Commission that screening reports, benchmarks for
opening negotiation chapters and the final EU common position be made public;

23.12.2006

EN

C 317 E/485

Wednesday, 13 December 2006

41. Urges the Commission to provide a more precise definition of its ‘reinforced Neighbourhood Policy’
and to specify in detail what this type of relationship would involve;

42. Reiterates its previous call on the Commission and the Council to submit, for all European countries
currently having no membership prospects, proposals for a close bilateral or multilateral relationship with
the EU that matches their specific needs and interests; emphasises that it is up to all countries with recog-
nised membership prospects to decide whether they want to join this multilateral framework as an inter-
mediate step towards full membership;

43. Calls in this context on the Commission and the Council to consider establishing, as part of a rein-
forced Neighbourhood Strategy, and in addition to the strategies concerning relations with other countries,
an overall EU regional policy in the wider Black Sea area in order to build stronger bilateral or multilateral
economic and political relations between the EU and all the countries of this area, particularly with regard
to free trade, as is the case for the Central European Free Trade Agreement, investment, energy security and
migration policy;

44.
Is of the opinion that the above options, which entail a broad spectrum of operational possibilities,
could constitute a real and attractive option which, without excluding full membership, would grant partner
countries a stable long-term perspective of institutionalised relations with the EU and provide the incentive
necessary to foster the internal reforms required in the countries in question;

45.
Invites the Commission and the Council in this context to consider modulating Community assistance
in the light of the progress made by beneficiary countries in achieving the reforms required for their
European integration;

Emphasises that while Russia is neither a candidate for EU membership nor part of the European
46.
Neighbourhood Policy, relations with the EU's largest neighbour nevertheless remain vital in the context of
any future EU enlargement strategy; urges that in this context the EU must continue all attempts to develop
a unique, wide-ranging partnership with Russia, encompassing trade and energy, but above all human rights
and democratisation issues;

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

47.
and parliaments of the Member States, accession states and candidate states.

the institutional capacity of the Union to integrate new Member States has been increasingly discussed in
relation to enlargements after the accession of Bulgaria and Romania,

in its above-mentioned resolution on the 2005 enlargement strategy paper, the European Parliament
invited the Commission to submit, by the end of 2006, a report setting out the principles on which the
Union's absorption capacity is based,

the European Council of 15-16 June 2006 decided that ‘the pace of enlargement must take the Union's
absorption capacity into account’ and resolved to hold a debate in December of the same year ‘on all

ways of improving the quality of the enlargement process on the basis of the positive experiences accu-

the European Council of 16-17 December 2004 in Brussels stated that ‘accession negotiations yet to be
opened with candidates whose accession could have substantial financial consequences can only be
concluded after the establishment of the Financial Framework for the period from 2014 together with
possible consequential financial reforms’,

the notion of
integration capacity entails the challenge of adapting the EU to accommodate its
new Members; that challenge currently remains unresolved, in particular following the rejection of the
Constitutional Treaty in France and the Netherlands as this treaty would enable the European Union to
function efficiently and democratically with the challenge of the financial resources still to be tackled,

M. there is an ongoing debate on the so-called ‘absorption capacity’ of the Union in the context of future

enlargements,

N.

the President of the Commission has stated before the European Parliament that he believes that an insti-
tutional settlement should precede any future enlargement, and has expressed his hope that that institu-
tional settlement, as set out by the European Council of 15-16 June 2006, can be achieved by the end
of 2008, thus allowing the Union to respect its commitments towards the negotiating countries and
those for which it has opened up the prospect of accession,

O. an institutional settlement of this kind is, first and foremost, required to maintain the momentum of
European Integration, as observed by the Heads of State and Government at the 1993 European Council
in Copenhagen,

Points out that enlargements have tended to strengthen the Union, foster its economic growth, reinforce

1.
its role in the world and stimulate the development of new EU policies;

2. Recalls that the notion of ‘absorption capacity’ made its first formal appearance in 1993, when the
European Council of Copenhagen recognised that, alongside the political and economic criteria that candi-
date countries must satisfy in order to accede to the Union, ‘the Union's capacity to absorb new members,
while maintaining the momentum of European integration’ also constitutes ‘an important consideration in
the general interest of both the Union and the candidate countries’;

3. Recalls that although every enlargement of the Union has brought about changes in its institutional,
political and financial framework, such changes were not sufficient to preserve the effectiveness of the
Union's decision making;

4.
Finds that the term ‘absorption capacity’ does not suitably convey the idea which it aims to express,
inasmuch as the EU does not in any way absorb its members, and therefore proposes that this expression be
changed to ‘integration capacity’, which better reflects the character of EU membership;

5.
Stresses that ‘integration capacity’ is not a new criterion applicable to the candidate countries but a
condition for the success of enlargement and for the deepening of the process of European integration; the
responsibility for improving ‘integration capacity’ lies with the Union and not with the candidate countries;

6. Considers that the notion of ‘integration capacity’ implies that after enlargement:

— the European institutions will be able to function properly and take decisions efficiently and democrati-

cally in accordance with their specific procedures,

— the financial resources of the Union will be sufficient to adequately finance its activities,

— the Union will be able successfully to develop its policies and attain its goals, in order to pursue its poli-

tical project;

7. Considers that, in order to ensure its integration capacity, the Union must decide on the scope and
substance of the reforms that it needs to achieve before any future accession takes place; its evaluation in
this regard must be conducted throughout
taking into
account the possible impact that new Member States will have on its institutional, financial and decisional
capabilities;

the enlargement process,

the key stages of

8. Recognises that the Union is at present confronted with difficulties in honouring its commitments
towards South-East European countries because its current institutional, financial and policy structure is
unsuitable for further enlargements and needs to be improved;

Institutional aspects of integration capacity

9.
Stresses that before any future enlargement a reform of the Union is essential to enable it to work more
effectively, more transparently and more democratically; in this light any further enlargement will necessitate
the following institutional reforms:

(a)

the adoption of a new system of qualified majority voting that enhances the ability of the Council to
reach decisions;

(b) a substantial extension of the matters to which qualified majority voting applies;

(c)

a substantial extension of the participation of the European Parliament, on an equal footing with the
Council, in budgetary and legislative matters;

(d) modification of the rotation system of Presidencies of the European Council and of the Council;

(e)

the creation of the post of Minister of Foreign Affairs;

(f)

(g)

further modification of the composition of the Commission beyond that ordained by the Treaty of
Nice;

the strengthening of the role of the President of the Commission and the reinforcement of his/her
democratic legitimacy through election by the European Parliament;

(h) extension of the jurisdiction of the Court of Justice to all areas of the activities of the Union, including

the monitoring of respecting of fundamental rights;

(i)

(j)

the establishment of mechanisms for the involvement of national parliaments in the scrutiny of the
Union's action;

the improvement of flexibility arrangements as a response to the increased possibility that not all
Member States are willing or able to go ahead with certain policies at the same time;

(k) modification of the procedure for amendment of the Treaties, in order to simplify it, render it more effi-

cient and enhance its democratic character and transparency;

(l)

suppression of the ‘pillar structure’ and its replacement by one single entity with a unified structure and
legal personality;

(m) the adoption of a clause enabling Member States to withdraw from the European Union;

(n) a clear definition of the values on which the Union is founded, as well as the objectives of the Union;

(o) a clear definition of the competencies of the Union and the principles governing its action and its rela-

tions with Member States;

(p)

strengthening of the transparency of the Union's decision-making process, namely through public scru-
tiny of the activities of the Council when it is acting as a branch of the legislative authority;

(q) a clear definition and simplification of

the instruments through which the Union exercises its

competencies.

Points out that all these reforms are already contained in the Constitutional Treaty and that their entering
into force would allow the proper functioning of an enlarged Union and ensure its ability to take decisions
efficiently and democratically;

Other relevant aspects of integration capacity

Points out that, apart from the necessary institutional reforms, further enlargements of the Union will

10.
necessitate modifications in other important aspects of its structure, such as:

(a) adoption of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union and improvement of the soli-

darity policies between the Member States;

(b) revision of its financial framework, including as regards its system of financing, in order to adapt it to
the new needs of an enlarged Union, building on the ‘full, wide-ranging review’ of the Financial
Framework 2007-2013 already planned for 2008/2009 pursuant to Parliament's resolution on Policy
Challenges and Budgetary Means of the enlarged Union 2007-2013 of 8 June 2005 (1) and to the provi-
sions of the Interinstitutional Agreement on budgetary discipline and sound financial management of
17 May 2006 (2);

(c) redefinition of several of its policies, some of which were established 50 years ago, so as to enable it to
implement the Lisbon Strategy, strengthen its capacity for action on the international stage and adapt
them to the new challenges that a much bigger and much more diverse Union faces in a globalised
world;

(d) reinforcement of the European Neighbourhood Policy, aimed at providing a suitable instrument for
establishing mutually beneficial relationships with those European countries that have no immediate
prospects for accession because they do not fulfil the conditions for membership or choose not to join;

11.
Stresses that the above reforms must go hand in hand with efforts to increase public acceptance of
enlargement and recalls the responsibility of Europe's political leaders in explaining to the public the goals
and mutual advantages of enlargement and the unification of Europe; supports the Commission in its efforts
to use ‘a wide variety of routes to communicate its enlargement policy and counter misconceptions with
evidence’, as stated in its above-mentioned 2005 enlargement strategy paper;

12. Reiterates, however, that any decision by the EU to admit a new Member State is taken through a
procedure that includes numerous safeguards, namely a unanimous decision by all Member States on the
opening and closing of accession negotiations, the approval of the European Parliament and the ratification
of each Accession Treaty by all Member States;

13.
Points out that, in any event, the signing of an Accession Treaty by the Member States' governments
means that those governments are fully committed to acting accordingly in order to ensure that the process
of ratifying that Treaty is brought to a successful conclusion, in accordance with the procedures in force in
each country;

14.
Takes the view that the assent of Parliament, required for Council to act under Article 49 Treaty on
European Union on the accession of new Member States, should apply to the decision to open negotiations,
as well as their conclusion;

Conclusions

15. Reaffirms its commitment to enlargement as an historic opportunity to ensure peace, security, stabi-
lity, democracy and the rule of law, as well as economic growth and prosperity in Europe; reaffirms its
conviction that enlargement must go hand in hand with the deepening of the Union, if the objectives of the
European integration process are not to be jeopardized;

Stresses that the Union must be able to adapt its institutional, financial and political structure in due
16.
time so as to avoid causing unexpected delays in the accession of candidate countries once it is established
that they satisfy all the conditions for membership;

17. Reaffirms that the Treaty of Nice does not provide an adequate basis for further enlargements;

18. Reaffirms its endorsement of the Constitutional Treaty, which already offers solutions to most of the
reforms needed by the EU in order to fulfil its current enlargement commitments and constitutes a tangible
expression of the relationship between deepening and enlargement, and warns that any attempt to foster a
piecemeal implementation of parts of the constitutional package deal may endanger the global compromise
upon which it rests;

Takes note of the timetable established by the European Council of 15-16 June 2006 for seeking a

19.
solution to the constitutional crisis by the second semester of 2008 at the latest;

20. Reaffirms its commitment to achieving a constitutional settlement for the European Union as quickly
as possible, and in any case before the citizens of the Union are called upon to cast their votes in the
European elections in 2009, so that the Union can honour its commitments vis-à-vis candidate countries
and be ready to accept them as Member States;

Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the parliaments and
governments of the Member States, the parliaments and governments of Turkey, Croatia, the Former
Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro, the Provisional
Institutions of Self-Government in Kosovo and the United Nations Mission in Kosovo.
