BEGRUNDELSE A. BAGGRUND
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT A. BACKGROUND TO THE PROPOSAL
Efter ulykken med olietankeren "Erika" fremsatte Kommissionen i 2001 forslag til en forordning om oprettelse af et europæisk agentur for søfartssikkerhed, et teknisk organ, hvis formål er at sikre et højt, ensartet og effektivt niveau for søfartssikkerhed og at forebygge forurening fra skibe i Fællesskabet.
In 2001, after the Erika tanker disaster, the Commission put forward a regulation to establish a European Maritime Safety Agency, a technical body with the objective of ensuring a high, uniform and effective level of maritime safety and prevention of pollution by ships within the Community.
Forordning 1406/2002 om agenturets oprettelse blev vedtaget af Europa-Parlamentet og Rådet den 27. juni 2002 og trådte i kraft efter offentliggørelsen i De Europæiske Fællesskabers Tidende i august samme år.
Regulation No 1406/2002, which established the agency, was adopted by the European Parliament and the Council on 27 June 2002 and came into force following its publication in the Official Journal, in August 2002.
Det nye fællesskabsorgan har til opgave at give medlemsstaterne og Kommissionen teknisk og videnskabelig bistand for at hjælpe dem med den korrekte anvendelse af Fællesskabets lovgivning for søfartssikkerhed og forebyggelse af forurening fra skibe, at overvåge denne lovgivnings gennemførelse og at vurdere de gældende foranstaltningers effektivitet.
This new Community body is responsible for providing the Member States and the Commission with technical and scientific assistance to help them to apply Community legislation properly in the field of maritime safety and the prevention of pollution by ships, to monitor its implementation and to evaluate the effectiveness of the measures in place.
B. FORMÅL 1.
B. CONTENT OF THE PROPOSAL 1.
Bekæmpelse af havforurening
Marine pollution response
På baggrund af forliset af olietankeren "Prestige" ud for Galiciens kyst i november sidste år foreslår Kommissionen den foreliggende ændring af den gældende forordning med følgende begrundelse:
Prompted by the wreck of the Prestige tanker in open seas off Galicia in November 2002, the Commission decided to put forward the amendments under discussion to the regulation in force, citing the following reasons.
Forliset afslørede den manglende samordning af medlemsstaternes foranstaltninger, som navnlig gik ud på at forhindre havforurening fra skibe og begrænse følgerne heraf.
The wreck demonstrated the lack of coordination between the actions of the Member States, which were first called upon to prevent the wreck from polluting the marine environment and subsequently to restrict its impact.
Kommissionen foreslår derfor, at agenturets beføjelser udvides, så det kan støtte den eksisterende fællesskabsordning vedrørende utilsigtet eller forsætlig havforurening og civilbeskyttelse.
For this reason, the Commission is proposing to expand the jurisdiction of the agency, so that it can support the existing Community framework and mechanism in the area of accidental or deliberate marine pollution and civil protection.
I den forbindelse må det påpeges, at Fællesskabets kompetence på disse områder bygger på følgende fællesskabsakter:
It should be noted that Community jurisdiction in these fields is based on the following Community instruments:
I overensstemmelse med disse to akter går Fællesskabets foranstaltning ud på: at støtte og supplere medlemsstaternes indsats, at medvirke til at forbedre medlemsstaternes evne til at reagere i ulykkestilfælde, at underbygge betingelserne for effektiv gensidig bistand og effektivt samarbejde og fremme det og at fremme samarbejdet mellem medlemsstaterne for at sikre skadeserstatning efter det princip, at forureneren skal betale.
In line with the above instruments Community action aims to: support and supplement Member States’ efforts; contribute to improving the response capabilities of the Member States in the event of incidents; strengthen the conditions for and facilitate efficient mutual assistance and cooperation; promote cooperation among Member States in order to provide for compensation for damage in accordance with the 'polluter pays' principle.
Sideløbende med fællesskabsbestemmelserne gælder der en række regionale aftaler om samarbejde mellem medlemsstaterne i tilfælde af forurening af Nordsøen, Østersøen og Middelhavet.
There are also various regional agreements operating in parallel with the existing Community framework, which govern cooperation between countries on pollution incidents in the North Sea, the Baltic and the Mediterranean.
I henhold til forslaget skal agenturet råde over de nødvendige økonomiske midler til at kunne gribe ind med særlige forureningsbekæmpelsesfartøjer efter anmodning fra en medlemsstat og under dennes ledelse.
Under this proposal, the agency will have the requisite financial resources to intervene, including by providing specialised pollution response ships, in the event that this is requested by a Member State, and it will act under the latter's authority.
Afgørelse herom træffes af agenturets bestyrelse med Kommissionens samtykke.
The relevant decision is in any case left to the agency's administrative board, following the Commission's agreement.
Det må i denne forbindelse understreges, at det endnu ikke er besluttet, om fartøjerne skal lejes på heltids- eller ad hoc-basis.
It should also be pointed out that it has not yet been decided whether ships will be chartered as need arises or on a permanent basis.
Kommissionen har bestilt en uafhængig undersøgelse, og på grundlag af resultaterne heraf vil agenturet kunne udarbejde den detaljerede forureningsbekæmpelsesplan.
The Commission has asked for an independent study to be carried out, the conclusions of which will enable the agency to formulate a detailed action plan.
Bekæmpelse af terroraktioner mod skibe og havnefaciliteter
Dealing with terrorist acts targeting ships and port facilities
Udvidelsen af agenturets beføjelser til også at omfatte bekæmpelse af kriminelle handlinger (terroraktioner) er det mest kontroversielle element i forslaget.
The expansion of the agency's jurisdiction to cover the field of dealing with malicious acts (terrorist acts) is the most contentious objective in the proposal.
På baggrund af sit forslag til forordning om bedre sikring af skibe og havnefaciliteter (som nu er under behandling i udvalget) mener Kommissionen, at agenturet kunne bistå den med udførelsen af de opgaver, denne forordning overdrager den.
On the basis of the proposal for a regulation on the improvement of ships and ports security (also currently under discussion in our committee), the Commission considers that the agency ought to assist it in the tasks assigned to the Commission by the regulation.
Helt konkret indfører den foreslåede forordning en proces, hvorefter der under Kommissionens tilsyn foretages inspektioner for at kontrollere, om procedurerne for overvågning af de nationale sikringsordningers gennemførelse er effektive.
Specifically, the proposed regulation introduces a process whereby inspections supervised by the Commission are put in place to check the effectiveness of procedures for monitoring the implementation of the Member States' security systems on ships and port facilities.
I henhold til Kommissionens forslag skal disse inspektioner foretages af agenturet.
Under the Commission's proposals, these inspections are to be carried out by the agency.
Uddannelse af søfolk
Training of seafarers
Kommissionen foreslår endvidere inddragelse af agenturet i procedurerne for anerkendelse af kvalifikationsbeviser, som er udstedt til søfolk af tredjelande.
Finally, the Commission proposes that the agency be involved in procedures with regard to the recognition of certificates of competency of seafarers issued by countries outside the EU.
Nærmere betegnet omhandler den foreslåede ændring af direktiv 2001/25/EF en central og harmoniseret procedure for anerkendelse af kvalifikationsbeviser på EF-plan under Kommissionens ledelse.
Specifically, the proposal to amend Regulation 2001/25/EC provides for a centralised and harmonised procedure for a Community-wide recognition of certificates of competency, to be entrusted to the Commission.
Kommissionen foreslår på sin side, at denne procedure underlægges agenturet.
The Commission, in turn, proposes that this procedure should form part of the agency's duties.
Kommissionen foreslår, at der tildeles agenturet 60 mio. EUR for perioden 2004-2006 til udførelsen af dets øgede opgaver vedrørende forebyggelse og bekæmpelse af havforurening fra skibe.
The Commission proposes that €60 million be made available to the agency for the 2004-2006 period in order for it to meet its obligations arising from its duty of prevention and response to marine pollution by ships.
Udvalget må principielt stille sig positivt til det foreliggende forslag.
The proposal under consideration ought in principle to be viewed positively by our committee.
Forliset af "Prestige" viste på tragisk vis, hvor nødvendigt det er at samordne medlemsstaternes aktioner med henblik på bekæmpelse af lignende hændelser fremover.
The Prestige disaster demonstrated dramatically how vital it is to coordinate the activities of the Member States, so that they can deal with similar events in the future.
Efter forliset af "Prestige" krævede Parlamentet da også, at Fællesskabet fik tillagt øgede beføjelser i forbindelse med bekæmpelse af havforurening og sikkerhed til søs generelt.
There was also a firm request by the Parliament following the Prestige disaster that Community responsibilities in responding to marine pollution and for maritime safety more generally should be extended.
I den forbindelse skal der mindes om, at Parlamentet i sin seneste beslutning om forliset (betænkning af Sterckx) bifaldt Kommissionens forslag om at stille særlige forureningsbekæmpelsesfartøjer til rådighed for agenturet.
On this point, it should be borne in mind that in its recent resolution on the disaster (Sterckx report), Parliament welcomed the Commission's proposal to provide the agency with special anti-pollution vessels.
Endvidere må de af Kommissionen foreslåede foranstaltninger ses i sammenhæng med Kommissionens forslag om bekæmpelse af terroraktioner mod skibe og havnefaciliteter, som nu er under behandling, samt dens forslag om anerkendelse af kvalifikationsbeviser, som er udstedt til søfolk af tredjelande.
It is also clear that the measures proposed by the Commission ought to be examined in conjunction with the Commission's proposals under consideration for dealing with malicious acts in ships and port facilities on the one hand and the recognition of certificates of competency of seafarers issued by countries outside the EU on the other hand.
I begge tilfælde stillede vort udvalg sig positivt til forslaget om at tillægge agenturet de relevante beføjelser.
And in both cases our committee has opted for the granting of responsibilities to the agency.
For at sikre konsekvens i Parlamentets holdninger til disse spørgsmål må man derfor se med velvilje på Kommissionens forslag.
As a result, and in order to ensure that Parliament adopts consistent positions on these topics, the Commission's proposal ought to be viewed in a favourable light.
Behandlingen af forslaget om at tillægge agenturet yderligere beføjelser rejser følgende spørgsmål:
Individual consideration of each point in the proposed additional duties of the agency prompts the following reflections:
- Den af de foreslåede nye beføjelser, der ikke giver anledning til nogen problemer, er ubestrideligt beføjelsen vedrørende anerkendelse af kvalifikationsbeviser, der er udstedt til søfolk af tredjelande.
- Undoubtedly, of the proposed new responsibilities the one which does not cause any problem is the reference to the recognition of certificates of competency of seafarers issued by countries outside the EU.
Agenturet er ganske givet det fællesskabsorgan frem for noget andet, der vil have den fornødne viden til at kunne bistå Kommissionen ved kontrollen med tredjelandes opfyldelse af deres pligter i henhold til den internationale konvention om uddannelse af søfarende, om sønæring og vagthold (STCW-konventionen).
The agency is certainly (or will be) the Community body with the requisite expertise to assist the Commission in checking that third countries are complying with their obligations flowing from the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping (STCW Convention).
- Derimod må der sættes spørgsmålstegn ved forslaget om at give agenturet øget kompetence vedrørende sikkerhed.
- On the other hand, the extension of the agency's jurisdiction in the security field gives rise to questions.
Det første spørgsmål, der rejser sig, er, hvorvidt agenturet, der er et rent fællesskabsorgan, skal have beføjelser, som henhører under tredje søjle (bekæmpelse af terrorisme).
The first question is the extent to which the agency, which is clearly a Community body, will acquire third-pillar responsibilities (combating terrorism).
Svaret herpå må ses i sammenhæng med ovennævnte forslag til forordning om sikring af skibe og havnefaciliteter.
The answer should be given in conjunction with the proposal, previously referred to, for a regulation on ship and port facility security.
Formålet med dette forslag er overførelse til fællesskabsretten af de internationale foranstaltninger til bekæmpelse af terroraktioner og andre kriminelle handlinger på grundlag af ændringen af SOLAS-konventionen og vedtagelsen af den ny internationale sikkerhedskodeks for skibe og havneanlæg.
This proposal seeks to transfer to Community law the international measures designed to combat terrorist acts and other types of illegal act, on the basis of the amendments to the SOLAS convention and the approval of the International Ship and Port Facility Security Code.
Da den foreslåede forordning giver Kommissionen beføjelse til at kontrollere, at disse foranstaltninger gennemføres korrekt i hele Fællesskabet, og Parlamentet er indforstået hermed, som det klart fremgik af afstemningen om betænkning af Rosa Miguélez Ramos om bedre sikring af skibe og havnefaciliteter, må den foreslåede kompetence til agenturet til at bistå Kommissionen med denne opgave selvsagt også accepteres, dog med visse ændringer, der præciserer den tekniske og subsidiære art af denne opgave.
In so far as the proposed regulation gives the Commission responsibility for checking on the correct implementation of these measures at Community level and in so far as Parliament endorses this proposal, as was clearly demonstrated in voting on the report by Rosa Miguélez Ramos on ship and port facility security, it is obvious that the proposed jurisdiction of the agency to assist the Commission in this duty ought also to be accepted, with certain changes to clarify the technical and supporting nature of this duty.
- Endelig rejser forslaget om at give agenturet kompetence vedrørende forebyggelse og bekæmpelse af forurening fra skibe mange spørgsmål.
- Finally, the proposal for granting the agency responsibility for prevention and combating of pollution from ships leaves many questions hanging.
Dette skyldes bl.a. den uklare formulering af forslaget og de manglende oplysninger om, hvordan de forureningsbekæmpelsesmidler, der stilles til rådighed for agenturet, skal anvendes.
This is partly due to a lack of clarity in the proposal's wording and a lack of detail with regard to the manner in which use will be made of the means made available to the agency for combating pollution.
Kommissionen anfører i begrundelsen, at disse midler bl.a. består af specialfartøjer, som skal stilles til rådighed for den forureningsramte medlemsstat efter anmodning.
The Commission says in its explanatory memorandum that these means will include special ships, which will be made available to the Member State affected by pollution in the event that it requests this.
Kommissionen anfører hele vejen igennem i begrundelsen, at disse fartøjer skal lejes.
In its explanatory memorandum the Commission says throughout that these ships will be chartered.
I den lovgivningsmæssige tekst lader den imidlertid det spørgsmål stå åbent, om agenturet skal leje eller eje disse fartøjer.
In the legislative text, however, the question of whether the ships will be leased or bought remains open.
Endvidere er det uklart, om fartøjerne skal lejes på heltids- eller ad hoc-basis.
The question also remains as to whether chartering would take place as the need arises or on a permanent basis.
Kommissionen søger naturligvis at sikre fleksibilitet for agenturet, idet den overdrager det til dets bestyrelse at udarbejde "en detaljeret plan for agenturets forureningsbekæmpelsesaktiviteter for at opnå den bedst mulige udnyttelse af de finansieringsmidler, der står til agenturets rådighed" (artikel 10, stk. 2, litra k).
Undoubtedly, the Commission is seeking to ensure that the agency has flexibility, by entrusting to the administrative board the drafting of 'a detailed plan for the Agency's pollution response activities, aiming at the optimum use of the financial means available to the Agency' (Article 10(2)(k)).
Kommissionen må under alle omstændigheder give Parlamentet mere udtømmende oplysninger herom.
The Commission ought nevertheless to furnish the Parliament with more comprehensive details on this issue.
Trods ovennævnte forbehold mener ordføreren, at Kommissionens forslag må støttes, idet det bidrager til bedre sikkerhed for skibsfarten.
Despite the reservations expressed above, your rapporteur takes the view that the Commission's proposal ought to be backed, as it contributes to the enhancing of shipping security.
Med de foreslåede ændringer ønsker ordføreren dog at gøre forslagsteksten mere præcis.
However, by tabling various amendments he will seek to make the proposal's text clearer.
Helt konkret gøres det klart, at agenturet kun skal yde Kommissionen bistand af teknisk art, for at den kan udføre de opgaver, der påhviler den i henhold til forordningen om sikring af skibe og havnefaciliteter.
Specifically, the amendments tabled make it clear that the Agency provides only technical assistance to the Commission, so that the latter can fulfil the duties conferred on it by the regulation on ship and port facility security.
Som følge af den følsomme art af dette spørgsmål præciseres endvidere agenturets beføjelser.
In addition, because of the sensitive nature of this sector, the Agency's responsibilities are clearly defined.
Desuden præciseres det, at kyststaterne principielt er kompetente med hensyn til bekæmpelse af havforurening, og at de pågældende bekæmpelsesaktiviteter sker under deres ledelse og kun efter anmodning fra dem.
It is also made clear that in the field of marine pollution response, primary responsibility lies with the coastal Member States and relevant action is taken under their authority and only at their request.
Hermed sikres der gennemførelse af subsidiaritetsprincippet.
This ensures that the subsidiarity principle is applied.
