Virksomhederne får således mulighed for at markedsføre deres produkter i et potentielt ubegrænset antal pakkestørrelser, og forbrugerne får dermed mulighed for at vælge den forpakning, der passer netop til dem.
By deregulating current rules on packaging for all but a few basic product groups (i.e. repealing all existing pack sizes currently under optional harmonisation and consolidating existing legislation in a single act), the Commission aims to optimise competition for industry and to ensure freedom of choice for consumers.
Samtidig afskæres medlemsstaterne fra at indføre konkurrenceforvridende foranstaltninger, herunder forbud mod bestemte emballagestørrelser.
The legislation, if adopted, would give industry the opportunity to produce -- and customers the chance to buy -- goods in a potentially infinite range of sizes.
EP's ordfører, Jacques TOUBON (PPE-DE; FR) mener imidlertid, at ”bedre regulering” ikke nødvendigvis betyder ”ingen regulering overhovedet”.
Such across-the-board deregulation, in the Commission's view, is in line with its global aim of simplifying internal market legislation.
Det støttes af Parlamentets medlemmer, som ganske vist hilser forslaget principielt velkommen, men som ønsker at tilføje visse begrænsninger.
As Commissioner Günter VERHEUGEN saw it, “from a legal point of view, the [current] situation is, to put it mildly, quite confusing.”
Således har Kommissionen foreslået at fastholde harmoniserede obligatoriske pakkestørrelser for en håndfuld udvalgte produkter, nemlig vin, spiritus, pulverkaffe, aerosoler og hvidt sukker.
However, argued committee rapporteur Jacques TOUBON ( EPP-ED, FR) during a Committee debate, "better regulation" should not necessarily mean "no regulation at all".
I modsætning hertil ønsker EP at fastholde de obligatoriske pakkestørrelser for yderligere seks produkter: kaffe, smør, salt, ris, pastavarer og konsummælk.
Fellow MEPs agreed and, while welcoming the Commission's initiative, decided to cut away at some of its scope.
Det sker med den begrundelse, at disse varer indgår som basisvarer i gennemsnitsforbrugerens indkøb, og at de derfor kun bør markedsføres i et begrænset antal standardforpakninger.
While the Commission had proposed to retain mandatory sizes for only a handful of goods (spirits, wines, soluble coffee, white sugar and most products sold in aerosols), committee members voted to retain them for six other product groups: drinking milk, butter, ground or unground roasted coffee, dried pasta, rice and brown sugar.
I modsat fald risikerer forbrugerne, herunder især de udsatte forbrugergrupper (ældre, svagtseende, handicappede, lavtuddannede forbrugere m.fl.), at lade sig forlede til at købe en billigere flaske mælk eller pakke smør, som reelt giver dårligere valuta for pengene, fordi indholdet er mindre.
Products such as these, as staples of the average consumer's diet, should only be sold in a restricted number of sizes, argued MEPs -- otherwise, consumers (especially the most disadvantaged ones) risk being misled into buying a cheaper bottle of milk or a cheaper stick of butter without realising that it contains a smaller volume.
EP mener, at den risiko kan formindskes ved f.eks. kun at sælge mælk i 1 dl, 2 dl, ½ l, ¾ l, 1 l og 1,5 l kartoner (samt 3 dl og 3,3 dl, der åbenbart er standardforpakninger i Sverige).
Selling milk in a limited range of quantities where the metric system is place -- and in quantities of 1/3, 1/2, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 pints (in the 1/3 - 6 pint range) where the system of imperial units is in place -- the Parliament believes, would help eliminate such a risk.
Tilsvarende standardforpakninger målt i pints kan anvendes, hvor der benyttes britiske måleenheder.
British Conservative MEP Malcolm HARBOUR noted " a certain amount of entirely misleading controversy ” in the British press on this proposal, especially " about the loss of the traditional British pint ".
Endelig ønsker EP, at forslaget ikke skal gælde for færdigpakket brød, smørbare fedtstoffer og te, for hvilke nationale bestemmelser om nominelle mængder fortsat skal gælde.
The Parliament also voted to exclude " pre-packed bread, spreadable fats or tea " from the scope of the directive.
Kommissionen ønsker, at disse undtagelsesbestemmelser kun skal gælde i 20 år, men EP ønsker en mere fleksibel fremgangsmåde.
For these products, national rules on nominal quantities will continue to apply.

The report drafted by Maria CARLSHARME (ALDE, SE) was adopted with 545 votes in favour, 13 against and 56 abstentions.
Europa-Parlamentets lovgivningsmæssige beslutning om forslag til Europa-Parlamentets og Rådets direktiv om indførelse af bestemmelser om nominelle mængder for færdigpakkede produkter, om ophævelse af Rådets direktiv 75/106/EØF og 80/232/EØF og om ændring af Rådets direktiv 76/211/EØF
Parliament urges the Member States to " recognise marital sexual violence as a crime and make rape within marriage a criminal offence ," " not to accept any reference to cultural practice as an extenuating circumstance in cases of men's violence against women such as in crimes of honour and genital mutilation ," " to ensure victims' right to safe access to justice" and "to take account of the fact that children who witness their mothers being battered could be regarded as victims ."
Vold mod kvinder fortsat et stort problem i EU
The House also says that marginalisation and poverty are basic causes for prostitution and of increased trafficking in women.
EP kræver foranstaltninger på EU-plan for at tackle problemet vedrørende vold mod kvinder.
In the debate before the vote the rapporteur stressed that there is an urgent need for more studies about violence against women. "
Ofrene skal sikres en effektiv retshåndhævelse, herunder erstatning.
The issue of men's violence against women is not a small issue on the fringe of society, it affects us all.
Betænkningen fokuserer bl.a. på mænds voldelige adfærd over for kvinder i nære forhold.
For more information see the link below to the background note "Turning the spotlight on violence against women".
Det anfører, at mænds voldelige adfærd over for kvinder er et omfattende og komplekst problem.
Beyond this rather technical term hides Parliament's firm intention to place Member States on track for an improved system of controls for EU funds.
EP mener, at mænds vold mod kvinder er ”en krænkelse af menneskerettighederne, der afspejler en ulige magtfordeling mellem kønnene i vores samfund”.
Authors of this Oral Question on the 2004 discharge rapporteur Jan MULDER (ALDE, NL), his 2003 counter-part Terry WYNN (PES, UK), Budgetary control chair Szabolcs FAZAKAS (PES, HU), as well as Javier Pomez RUIZ (EPP-ED, ES), all voiced their concern at the Member States' lack of action to tackle this problem, which has badly undermined taxpayers' confidence in the EU.
Det henviser til, at ”den ulige magtfordeling mellem kønnene er årsagen til al vold mod kvinder”.
Parliament is likely to re-examine this issue in the course of the 2004 EU budget discharge, up for adoption by the Plenary on 27 April in Brussels.
Udover at vedtage foranstaltninger for at hjælpe voldsofrene, er det efter MEPernes mening også ”nødvendigt med foregribende og forebyggende strategier rettet mod gerningsmændene og de potentielle gerningsmænd”.
Meanwhile, MEPs adopted a resolution which welcomes the Commission's efforts, on the one hand, but singled out Member States on the other as regards the need to see " better controls rather than more controls " and " assurance coming from national authorities "
De opfordres også til ”ikke at acceptere nogen form for henvisning til kulturelle kutymer som en formildende omstændighed i tilfælde af vold mod kvinder, æresforbrydelser og lemlæstelse af kønsorganer”.
Back in November 2005, MEPs stated that they were tired of hearing the same explanation for the 11th year running when the Court of Auditors failed to report a positive Declaration of Assurance (DAS), because of the " scope for doubt in the reliability of underlying operations ".
EP henviser til, at udstødelse og fattigdom er helt afgørende årsager til prostitution og til den øgede handel med kvinder.
In a wide-ranging report on the EU's common foreign and security policy, MEPs express annoyance at the lack of consultation and information from the Council, and are proposing to see if legal action can be taken.
Det kræver, at man gør op med forestillingen om, at prostitution kan ligestilles med udøvelse af et erhverv.
MEPs also call on the Council High Representative, Javier Solana, to participate actively in the annual debate on the CFSP.
Der er kun få medlemsstater, der har indhentet oplysninger og udarbejdet statistikker om udbredelsen af de forskellige former for vold mod kvinder.
MEPs believe security also includes aspects such as energy, climate change and the spread of poverty.
Derfor ønsker EP at fastlægge samordnede metoder, definitioner og kriterier med henblik på at samle sammenlignelige og kompatible data i EU, hvad angår vold mod kvinder, navnlig omfattende undersøgelser af problemets omfang.
The EU should update its Security Policies with a view to addressing its increasing dependence on energy from ever more unstable countries and regions; the recent unilateral gas delivery suspensions by Russia call for a strategic response from the EU.
Samtidig går det ind for at ”udnævne nationale rapportører til at indhente, udveksle og behandle informationer og statistikker om mænds vold mod kvinder, herunder information om de børn, der vokser op i voldelige miljøer, og fremme udveksling af bedste praksis mellem medlemsstaterne og tiltrædelses- og kandidatlandene”.
MEPs call for a solution to the future status of Kosovo which respects its territorial integrity, upholds minority rights and does not endanger the EU's overall policy for the Balkans.
Under debatten understregede ordføreren, Maria Carlshamre, at dette er et problem, som berører kvinder i alle sociale lag og i alle medlemsstater. "
The EU should try and achieve an agreement between the political forces and public opinion in Bosnia-Herzegovina for going beyond the Dayton accords in order to rationalise the institutional architecture and create a more efficient and self-sustainable state.
Nu må der gøres noget.
Special attention should be given to the development of Africa.
Spørgsmålet om mænds vold mod kvinder er ikke bare begrænset til en lille marginalgruppe, det berører os alle.
Parliament asks the Council to examine carefully the possibility of sending a military mission to Congo as a contribution to the security of upcoming elections in Congo.
Jeg kræver nultolerance over for mænds voldelige adfærd mod kvinder ", sagde hun.
The EU policy towards Belarus has achieved few results, MEPs state; therefore new measures should be proposed to strengthen links with the people of Belarus.
Europa-Parlamentets beslutning om status over bekæmpelsen af volden mod kvinder og den fremtidige indsats
Parliament deplores Council's position for the Financial Perspective, the EU's long-term budget until 2013, which would cut spending on external actions and policies.

EP: Fortsat støtte til den demokratiske udvikling i Palæstina
Palestinian elections: MEPs call for new government to renounce violence and recognise Israel
Edward McMILLAN-SCOTT som valgobservatør under det palæstinensiske valg
In reaction to the Hamas victory in the Palestinian elections on 25 January, MEPs said they want the EU to remain the biggest aid donor to the Palestinian Authority, on condition that the new Palestinian government renounces violence and recognises the state of Israel.
EP har vedtaget et fælles beslutningsforslag om resultatet af det palæstinensiske valg og situationen i Østjerusalem.
In this respect, MEPs referred to a report drawn up by the EU Heads of Mission in Jerusalem and Ramallah on the situation in East Jerusalem, especially on the consequences of the building of the security barrier.
Det nye palæstinensiske parlament og den kommende regering opfordres til utvetydigt at anerkende staten Israels ret til at eksistere samt til at forpligte sig til at anvende princippet om fredelige forhandlinger med det mål at skabe en tostatsløsning samt at overholde de resultater, der hidtil er opnået med køreplanen for fred, og at samarbejde med Mellemøst-kvartetten (FN, USA, EU og Rusland).
We expect unequivocal support for the principles listed - international support for the Palestinian Authority is linked to espousing these principles.
EP glæder sig over den gnidningsløse og fredelige afvikling af det palæstinensiske valg.
We should remind Israel and the Palestinian Authority of their road map commitments.
Vold mod kvinder fortsat et stort problem i EU
MEPs call for zero tolerance to all forms of violence against women
EP urges action to fight violence against women
EP urges action to fight violence against women
EP har med stort flertal (545 stemmer for, 13 imod og 56 hverken/eller) godkendt en initiativbetænkning udarbejdet Maria CARLSHAMRE (ALDE, SE) om status over bekæmpelsen af volden mod kvinder og eventuel fremtidig indsats.
The report drafted by Maria CARLSHARME (ALDE, SE) was adopted with 545 votes in favour, 13 against and 56 abstentions.
EP henviser til, at ”omfattende undersøgelser af udbredelsen af vold mod kvinder i Sverige, Tyskland og Finland viser, at mindst 30-35 % af kvinder mellem 16 og 67 år på et eller andet tidspunkt har været udsat for fysiske eller seksuelle overgreb”, og at ”65-90 % af alle prostituerede kvinder allerede som børn blev udsat for seksuelle overgreb”.
It states that " large-scale prevalence studies in Sweden, Germany and Finland show that at least 30-35% of women between 16 and 67 have at one time been victims of physical or sexual violence" and "surveys show that 65-90 % of prostituted women had already been subjected to sexual abuse as children or later ".
EP mener, at mænds vold mod kvinder er ”en krænkelse af menneskerettighederne, der afspejler en ulige magtfordeling mellem kønnene i vores samfund”.
MEPs say that male violence against women should be regarded as a " violation of human rights reflecting unequal gender power relations ". "
Det henviser til, at ”den ulige magtfordeling mellem kønnene er årsagen til al vold mod kvinder”.
Unequal distribution of power lies at the root of all violence against women " according to them.
Udover at vedtage foranstaltninger for at hjælpe voldsofrene, er det efter MEPernes mening også ”nødvendigt med foregribende og forebyggende strategier rettet mod gerningsmændene og de potentielle gerningsmænd”.
They stress that there is a need for proactive and preventive strategies aimed at the perpetrators and those at risk of becoming perpetrators
Medlemsstaterne opfordres til at træffe hensigtsmæssige foranstaltninger vedrørende mænds vold mod kvinder i de respektive nationale lovgivninger, navnlig ”at anerkende seksuelle overgreb inden for ægteskabet som lovovertrædelser og gøre voldtægt inden for ægteskabet strafbart”.
Parliament urges the Member States to " recognise marital sexual violence as a crime and make rape within marriage a criminal offence ," " not to accept any reference to cultural practice as an extenuating circumstance in cases of men's violence against women such as in crimes of honour and genital mutilation," "to ensure victims' right to safe access to justice " and "to take account of the fact that children who witness their mothers being battered could be regarded as victims."
De opfordres også til ”ikke at acceptere nogen form for henvisning til kulturelle kutymer som en formildende omstændighed i tilfælde af vold mod kvinder, æresforbrydelser og lemlæstelse af kønsorganer”.
MEPs stress that preventing and banning female genital mutilation and prosecuting perpetrators must become a priority in all relevant European Union policies and programmes.
Endvidere opfordres de til at ”garantere offerets ret til sikker adgang til domstolene og en effektiv retshåndhævelse, bl.a. ved at yde erstatning”.
The report calls on the Commission " to devise a comprehensive strategic approach at European level with the aim of putting an end to the practice of female genital mutilation in the European Union."
EP henviser til, at udstødelse og fattigdom er helt afgørende årsager til prostitution og til den øgede handel med kvinder.
There is not enough data available on men's violence against women and so the report calls for a harmonised methodology and the appointment of national rapporteurs to gather information, establishment of a single system of recording instances of assault by all the competent authorities and appropriate education and training for professionals responsible for recording incidents.
Det kræver, at man gør op med forestillingen om, at prostitution kan ligestilles med udøvelse af et erhverv.
MEPs call on the Member States to provide all necessary support to the victims.
Der er kun få medlemsstater, der har indhentet oplysninger og udarbejdet statistikker om udbredelsen af de forskellige former for vold mod kvinder.
They also call for specific employment action programmes for the victims of gender-based violence, so as to enable them to enter the labour market and achieve financial independence.
Derfor ønsker EP at fastlægge samordnede metoder, definitioner og kriterier med henblik på at samle sammenlignelige og kompatible data i EU, hvad angår vold mod kvinder, navnlig omfattende undersøgelser af problemets omfang.
The House also says that marginalisation and poverty are basic causes for prostitution and of increased trafficking in women.
Under debatten understregede ordføreren, Maria Carlshamre, at dette er et problem, som berører kvinder i alle sociale lag og i alle medlemsstater. "
In her opinion " the magnitude of the problem in itself indicates that all Member States are repeatedly violating the basic rules of civil liberties and the rule of law on a scale that we are yet to understand".
Nu må der gøres noget.
What we need to do now is to act.
Spørgsmålet om mænds vold mod kvinder er ikke bare begrænset til en lille marginalgruppe, det berører os alle.
The issue of men's violence against women is not a small issue on the fringe of society, it affects us all.
Jeg kræver nultolerance over for mænds voldelige adfærd mod kvinder ", sagde hun.
I demand zero tolerance of men's violence against wom en," Mrs Carlshamre concluded.

EP godkender skærpede sikkerhedsregler for landevejstransport
Fewer driving hours mean fewer accidents - final deal approved - digital tachographs in May 2006
EP to approve stricter road safety rules
EP to approve stricter road safety rules
Der er lagt op til en begrænsning af antallet af ulykker som følge af overtrætte lastvognschauffører, efter at EP har godkendt nye sikkerhedsregler for vejtransport.
Road accidents caused by driver fatigue should be reduced when Parliament approved measures that will lead to all new trucks and buses in the European Union being fitted with digital tachographs from 1 May 2006.
De nye regler medfører bl.a., at alle nye lastvogne og busser i EU skal udstyres med digitale fartskrivere fra den 1. maj 2006, hvorved der bliver bedre kontrol med det faktiske antal kørte timer.
The measure will carefully monitor the hours the vehicle is driven and form part of a package of road safety legislation approved by Parliament that includes for the first time a list of common serious road safety infringements.
Forslaget indgår i en pakke med det formål at forbedre sikkerheden for landevejstransport i EU.
The package approved after a conciliation agreement concerns two related proposals:
Efter langvarige forhandlinger er der opnået forlig mellem EP og Rådet i spørgsmålet om sociale bestemmelser inden for vejtransport.
Other key issues concerned the introduction of digital tachographs (which are more difficult to falsify than non-digital tachographs), the number of minimum checks to be carried out by Member States and rest periods and breaks for drivers.
Endvidere er der skabt sammenhæng mellem bestemmelserne for vejtransport og arbejdstidsdirektivet.
• a list of common serious infringements was agreed and the Commission undertook to draw-up in the future a more detailed list of common infringements;
Flere hundrede tusinde ansatte i den europæiske transportsektor vil blive berørt af den nye lovgivning
• recitals acknowledging the risks arising from driver fatigue and the importance of the Working Time Directive for the creation of a common market for road safety and for working conditions were included in the text;
Til sidst har EP accepteret Rådets forslag for ikke at blokere lovgivningen.
Council wanted this to mean an uninterrupted period of rest of at least 11 hours.
Denne hvileperiode skal imidlertid kunne deles op og tage i to perioder, først en pause med evt. afbrydelser på mindst tre timer, fulgt af en pause på mindst ni timer uden afbrydelser.
Parliament would have preferred 12 hours but finally accepted the Council's figure in order not to block the legislation.
Kontrolforanstaltninger På forlangende af EP har Rådet accepteret at skærpe de kontrolforanstaltninger, som medlemsstaterne som minimum skal udføre for at sikre, at reglerne bliver overholdt.
However, it was agreed that this rest period may, as an alternative, be taken in two periods, the first an interrupted period of at least 3 hours and the second an uninterrupted period of at least 9 hours.
Efter at EP har insisteret, er Rådet dog til sidst gået med til at opstille en fælles liste over overtrædelser.
Nevertheless at Parliament's insistence the Council finally agreed to the introduction of a list of common infringements in the annex to the directive.
Rådet har fastholdt sin modstand mod at tilføje en henvisning til arbejdstidsdirektivet (2002/15/EF), hvorved der ellers ville være skabt en direkte sammenhæng mellem dette direktiv og den nye lovgivning.
Rapporteur Helmuth MARKOV (GUE/NGL, DE), however, voted against the final compromise, explaining that he could not accept the conciliation agreement as long as it did not establish a clear link between the new legislation and the Working Time Directive.
Udstationering af ansatte: skal loven revideres?
