This derogation from the rule of translation into all official languages based on Rule 139 will be in force until September 2007.
As the justification provided for differential treatment as a result of the derogation is the fact that translation into all languages is impossible for practical reasons, it is clear that such a situation should not last; that such a situation should be seen as nothing more than a temporary measure, and that a fairer system must be found.

On 16.1.2006, the Bureau "agreed ... on the principle that verbatim reports of proceedings in the plenary should be published as a multi-lingual document including speeches in the original language only, on the understanding that filmed versions of the debates, together with live interpretation into all the official languages should be made available to all Members and to the general public on demand on an appropriate technical support (e.g. initially DVDs, subsequently video on-demand via the internet);" and

If demand is high, and the trial period reveals that the translation service cannot provide this facility without adversely impacting on other work, the possibility that the work be outsourced might have to be examined at a later stage.

Alternatives and position of the Rapporteur

In terms of quality and transparency of information, and equal treatment for all citizens, it is clear that the ideal solution is the translation and publication of all debates of the European Parliament into all the official languages as Rule 173 (1) provides up to now.

Hitherto, this solution has simply not been possible, owing to the paucity of translation capacity in the Member States which acceded in 2004, hence the current derogation.

This is not by any means an insubstantial amount, and considerably exceeds even the highest cost estimate of running an EP Web TV channel in 23 languages for a year.

• Cost-benefit : One must also consider this expense in the light of the likely readership of parliamentary debates, notably if one excludes potential ‘home’ audiences able to read the original language of delivery and ‘institutional’ readers within the Brussels circuit, accustomed to operating in a small number of ‘vehicular’ languages.

The question is, however, whether this accessibility of proceedings must be guaranteed in the form of systematic written translations into all official languages or whether oral/audiovisual records may be regarded as sufficient.

Your Rapporteur, after weighing the arguments brought forward during the debate in the Bureau, is of the opinion that the cost and cost-benefit considerations justify indeed opting in future for an audiovisual record accessible via the internet in order to guarantee the accessibility of proceedings for all citizens.
