natgillin/translations-raw huggingface dataset:
Dertil kommer, at spansk er det femte mest talte sprog i Den Europæiske Union, det fjerdestørste fremmedsprog og det sprog i EU, hvor antallet af brugere vokser hurtigst i og uden for EU.
Furthermore, Spanish is the language with the fifth highest number of speakers in the EU, the fourth most widely taught as a foreign language, and the fastest-growing EU language in terms of numbers of speakers both within and outside the Union.
Nedskæringen ville paradoksalt nok placere spansk på en sjetteplads inden for oversættelsen.
The cut in the number of translators would, paradoxically, place Spanish in sixth place in terms of translation.

Om: Kystskibsfart i Grækenland
Subject: Coastal shipping in Greece
Kommissionen har sendt en begrundet udtalelse til Grækenland for manglende gennemførelse af fællesskabslovgivningen og opfordrer Grækenland til at træffe vilkårlige foranstaltninger, der yderligere vil skærpe søfolkenes problemer og forværre problemerne for arbejdstagerne på øerne generelt og samtidig øge risiciene for skibsfartens sikkerhed og miljøbeskyttelsen, hvad der har udløst en storm af reaktioner.
The Commission has sent a reasoned opinion to Greece for failing to implement Community legislation, calling on that country to take arbitrary measures which will further exacerbate the problems of seafarers and workers in general living on the islands and, at the same time, will increase the risks posed to the safety of shipping and protection of the environment, thereby provoking an outcry.
Mener Kommissionen, at afskaffelsen af de objektive kriterier vedrørende skibenes tonnage og motorkapacitet med henblik på at bestemme besætningens sammensætning, aldersgrænsen for tilbagetrækning af de forældede skibe samt fuldstændig liberalisering af billetpriserne på economy class gavner brugerne af disse tjenester, beskæftigelsen og udviklingen af de græske øområder, eller mener Kommissionen, at dette udelukkende tjener skibsfartsselskabernes interesser og jagt på fortjeneste, og at Kommissionen derfor bør tage sin holdning op til revision?
Does the Commission consider that abolishing the objective criteria of tonnage and engine power to determine the composition of the crew, the age-limit for withdrawing superannuated vessels from service and the total liberalisation of economy-class tickets are in the interests of the users of these services, and of employment and development on the Greek islands or do they exclusively serve the interests and the profitability of the shipping companies and should the Commission, therefore, reconsider its position?

Kan Kommissionen redegøre for, hvordan den vurderer fremtiden for landbruget og udviklingen af landdistrikter på baggrund af medlemsstaternes seneste forslag om de finansielle overslag, især forslaget om at tillade medlemsstaterne af overføre indtil 20% af enkeltbetalingen pr. bedrift til udvikling af landdistrikter?
Could the Commission outline its view of the future of agriculture and rural development in light of the recent proposal from Member States on the financial perspectives, in particular the proposal to allow Member States to transfer up to 20 per cent of the Single Farm Payment to rural development.
Da medlemsstaterne kan anvende disse 20% efter forgodtbefindende, er Kommissionen da bekymret for, at denne fremgangsmåde kan betyde begyndelsen på afslutningen af en fælles tilgang til landbrugspolitik i EU og dermed er uhensigtsmæssig og bør modarbejdes?
As this 20 per cent can be used in whatever way a Member State see fit, does the Commission have concerns that this approach signifies the beginning of the end of a common approach to agricultural policy in the EU and as such is inappropriate and should be resisted?

Om: Kommissionens sprogpolitik
Subject: Commission's language policy
Hvorfor findes der en ordning i Kommissionen, hvorefter den kommende kontorchef skal gennemgå et forberedelseskursus udelukkende på fransk og engelsk, hvorved de påkrævede sproglige færdigheder reduceres kunstigt til disse sprog, og hvorved tysk, som er det næststørste sprog i EU og arbejdssprog i Kommissionen, diskrimineres?
Why is there a Commission rule whereby prospective heads of unit have to undergo a preparatory training programme given exclusively in French and English, thus artificially reducing the required linguistic skills to those languages and, as a result, discriminating against German which is the second most widely understood language in the EU and a Commission working language?
Hvorledes er denne fremgangsmåde forenelig med den politik, som Kommissionen går ind for, nemlig "flersprogethed", dvs. modersmål plus to fremmedsprog?
How is this practice consistent with the Commission's policy of promoting 'multilingualism', i.e. mother tongue plus two foreign languages?
Er Kommissionen rede til at tilbyde det påkrævede forberedelseskursus i en sådan form, at de pågældende selv udvælger to af de tre sprog, som de ønsker at gennemføre disse kurser på?
Is the Commission prepared to offer the required training programme in a form whereby the individuals concerned can themselves choose two of the three languages in which they would like to follow the courses?
Ville Kommissionen foretrække en ordning, som under alle omstændigheder udelukker valget af modersmålet i forbindelse med de to sprog, der skal vælges, således at der "kun" ville være garanti for "frit valg" mellem de tre sprog for de personer, hvis modersmål er et af de 17 "sprog, der ikke er et arbejdssprog"?
Would the Commission prefer an arrangement which does not allow the choice of a candidate's mother tongue as one of the two languages to be selected so that 'only' those candidates whose mother tongue is one of the 17 'non-working languages' would have a 'free choice' between the three languages?
Er Kommissionen endvidere på hensigtsmæssig vis rede til i lignende situationer og konstellationer at tilstræbe en ikke kun formel ligebehandling af tysk og fransk men positiv forskelsbehandling, således at der, når der kan vælges fransk, også kan vælges tysk, eller negativ forskelsbehandling, således at der, når der ikke kan vælges tysk, heller ikke kan vælges fransk?
Is the Commission also prepared, where comparable situations and configurations are concerned, to try in an appropriate way to bring about a situation in which German and French are treated equally - not merely on a formal basis - either in a positive sense, i.e. French is available and, therefore, so is German, or in a negative sense, i.e. German is not available and, therefore, neither is French?

Subject: Opening up of the Austrian labour market to workers from the new EU Member States
Det Forenede Kongerige, Irland og Sverige har åbnet deres arbejdsmarkeder for statsborgere fra de østeuropæiske lande.
The United Kingdom, Ireland and Sweden have all opened up their labour markets to nationals of the countries of Eastern Europe.
Ved at modtage arbejdstagere fra Litauen, Polen og andre nye EU-medlemsstater lykkes det for disse lande at integrere dem på arbejdsmarkedet og dermed forøge deres BNP.
In welcoming workers from Lithuania, Poland and other new EU Member States, the former countries have managed to integrate workers from the latter countries in their labour markets and have increased their own GDP.
Det væsentlige spørgsmål om sort arbejde udført af borgere fra de nye medlemsstater er derimod aktuelt i andre EU-lande, særlig Tyskland og Østrig, hvor der stadig opretholdes begrænsninger for vandrende arbejdstagere.
However, the key problem of illegal labour involving the citizens of the new Member States arises in other EU Member States, in particular Germany and Austria, where restrictions on the migration of workers are being maintained.
Agter Østrig på denne baggrund stadig at fastholde begrænsningerne for vandrende arbejdstagere fra de nye EU-medlemsstater i yderligere tre eller fem år?
In view of this situation, does Austria still intend to maintain immigration restrictions for workers from the new EU Member States for three or five more years?
Hvilket eksempel viser EU's formandsland dermed de øvrige medlemsstater, der endnu ikke har åbnet adgang til deres arbejdsmarkeder?

The Austrian Presidency has identified women’s health as a priority, in connection with the problem of Europe’s ageing population.
Kvinders sundhed, særlig deres reproduktive sundhed, er derfor en integrerende del af Lissabon-strategien.
Women’s health, and reproductive health in particular, are therefore an integral part of the Lisbon strategy.

Den 18. januar i år besvarede Kommissionen min forespørgsel til skriftlig besvarelse P-4568/05 om nedskæring af antallet af spansksprogede oversættere i Kommissionens tjenestegrene.
On 18 January 2006 the Commission replied to my written question P-4568/05 on the reduction of the number of Spanish translators in its services.
Ikke alene kan jeg ikke tilslutte mig argumentationen i svaret, som er undertegnet af kommissær Figel, men jeg mener heller ikke, at det fremgår klart af dette svar, om Kommissionen fastholder de planer, der kom til offentlighedens kundskab i begyndelsen af november 2005, og som bl.a. indebar en uacceptabel nedskæring i antallet af spansksprogede oversættere, hvor man lod hånt om så vægtige argumenter som antallet af spansktalende og den ekstraordinært store vækst i dette sprogs udbredelse såvel i som uden for EU.
I do not agree with the arguments advanced in Commissioner Figel's reply, and I feel it does not provide a full answer as to whether the Commission is maintaining the plans made public in early November 2005, which entailed, inter alia, an unacceptable reduction in the numbers of Spanish translators which takes no account of such crucial factors as the number of Spanish speakers and the remarkable growth of the language both within and outside the Union.
Påtænker Kommissionen at iværksætte omtalte planer, eller har den til hensigt at ændre dem i overensstemmelse med opfordringerne fra offentligheden, den spanske regering og ovenstående medlem af Europa-Parlamentet, således at man ikke undergraver den store merværdi, brugen af spansk indebærer for EU som et af dets vigtigste officielle sprog, og dermed forhindrer en forskelsbehandling heraf i forhold til engelsk, fransk og tysk?
Can the Commission state whether it intends to continue with those plans or whether it has decided to modify them in line with public opinion, the stand taken by the Spanish government and my own position, in order to avoid damaging the remarkable value added represented for the Union by the use of Spanish as one of its main official languages and ensure it is not discriminated against by comparison with English, French and German?
