Plyndringen af Bagdads arkæologiske museum, af andre museer, af arkæologiske udgravninger og af historiske biblioteker og arkiver i hele Irak har allerede øget den ulovlige handel med arkæologiske fund og andre typer fund, der finder sted i Europa og i De Forenede Stater.
The plundering of the archaeological museum in Baghdad and other museums, archaeological sites, libraries and historical archives throughout Iraq is already supplying an illegal traffic in archaeological finds and other objects in Europe and the United States.
Hvorledes agter Kommissionen og kommissionsmedlemmerne i praksis at støtte den appel, som UNESCO's direktør, dr. K. Matsura, den 17. april 2003 rettede til alle stater om at træffe de nødvendige retlige og administrative foranstaltninger for at forhindre denne ulovlige handel, herunder indførelse af et 3-5-årigt forbud mod handel med alle former for kunstgenstande fra det gamle Mesopotamien?
What practical support will the Commission and the Commissioners give to the appeal launched on 17 April 2003 by the Director-General of UNESCO, Mr K.Matsura, calling on all countries to adopt all the legal and administrative measures needed to prevent such trafficking, including a ban, for a period of between 3 and 5 years, on trading in any artefacts from ancient Mesopotamia?

ORAL QUESTION H-0265/03
31. august 2003 pålægges alle lastvogne i Tyskland en vejafgift, den såkaldte LKW-Maut.
From 31 August 2003, all trucks will be required to pay a mileage toll (‘LKW-Maut’) in Germany.
Denne afgift kan afregnes automatisk via installering af en on-board unit (OBU).
It will be possible to have the toll charged automatically by installing an On Board Unit.
For lastvogne, der ikke har en sådan OBU, skal afgiften betales manuelt ved en af de 3.500 terminaler, som er specielt beregnet hertil.
In the case of trucks which do not have OBUs, the toll will have to be paid manually using one of the 3500 terminals provided for the purpose.
Ved ordningens ikrafttræden vil der kun være 150.000 OBUer til rådighed.
When the system comes into operation, only 150 000 OBUs will be available.
Alene til at dække behovet i Tyskland er der brug for 800.000.
Yet in Germany alone, 800 000 are needed.
OBU-installeringen skal foretages af godkendte værksteder.
OBUs have to be installed by recognised workshops.
Der findes indtil videre ikke nogen liste over godkendte montageværksteder uden for Tyskland.
So far, no list of recognised installation workshops outside Germany exists.
Derfor vil størstedelen af lastvognschaufførerne skulle aflevere dataene manuelt.
Most HGV drivers will therefore have to enter the data manually.
Dette vil utvivlsomt give store problemer (sproget, fejlbetjening, kødannelse, ruteændring, etc.).
This will undoubtedly cause major problems (language, errors in operating the terminals, traffic jams, changes of route, etc.).
Af direktiv 1999/62/EF fremgår det, at vejafgifter og brugsafgifter ikke må indebære forskelsbehandling eller urimeligt omfattende formaliteter, og at de heller ikke må skabe hindringer ved de indre grænser.
Directive 1999/62/EC lays down that tolls and user charges must not be discriminatory nor entail excessive formalities or create obstacles at internal borders.
Mener Kommissionen ikke, at den tyske vejafgift bør udsættes, indtil betingelserne i direktiv 1999/62/EF er opfyldt, og navnlig indtil der i alle lastvogne, hvor det måtte ønskes, kan installeres en OBU?
Does not the Commission consider that the German toll should be postponed until the conditions of Directive 1999/62/EC are met, and in particular until all trucks whose operators so wish can obtain On Board Units?

Om: Uregelmæssigheder i anvendelsen af handelsaftalen mellem EF og Israel
Subject: Irregular application of EC-Israel trade-related agreements
Flere medlemsstater har for nylig, efter i januar 2002 at have indledt en ny runde af verificeringsprocedurer vedrørende oprindelsescertifikater og fakturaerklæringer, meddelt, at de er begyndt at kræve betaling af told på en række af de pågældende importforsendelser, med den begrundelse, at Israels toldmyndigheder ikke besvarede de spørgsmål, som blev stillet i verificeringsanmodningerne.
After launching a second cycle of verification procedures on certificates of origin and invoice declarations in January 2002, several Member States have recently reported that they have begun recovering duties on a number of the import consignments in question on the grounds that Israel’s customs authorities did not answer the questions that were asked in the verification requests.
Når Israels toldmyndigheder rent faktisk besvarer verificeringsspørgsmål, når de stilles, men også erklærer, at de pågældende produkter i henhold til EF-Israel-aftalen har oprindelse i Israel og falder ind under præferenceordningen, opkræver medlemsstaterne så told?
Where Israel’s customs authorities do answer the verification questions as asked but also state that, under the EC-Israel Agreement, the products in question are of Israeli origin and are entitled to preferences, do the Member States recover duties?
Mener Kommissionen, at medlemsstaterne i disse tilfælde kan fastholde betaling af tolden på trods af de berørte importørers protester?
In such cases, does the Commission consider that the Member States are entitled to uphold recovery of duties despite the affected importers’ objections?

On 23 November 2001 the Commission stated that 'it is now confirmed that Israel issues proof of origin for products coming from places brought under Israeli administration since 1967'.
Israel har oplyst, at det baserer sine fastlæggelser af oprindelse for varer, der eksporteres i henhold til handelsaftalerne med EF, på sin egen nationale lovgivning, som i strid med offentlig folkeret giver bemyndigelse til etablering af israelske bosættelser i de områder, som er blevet besat af Israel efter 1967, og til Israels ensidige annektering af dele af disse områder.
Israel has stated that it bases its determinations of the origin of the products it exports under its agreements with the EC on its own national legislation, which, in contravention of public international law, mandates the establishment of Israeli settlements in the territories occupied by Israel since 1967 and Israel's unilateral annexation of parts of those territories.

På grundlag af en liste over formodede varer fra bosættelser udarbejdet af Kommissionen har medlemsstater sendt i alt 3798 EUR1 eller fakturaerklæringer til de israelske toldmyndigheder i begyndelsen af august 2000.
Based on a list of suspected settlement products prepared by the Commission, Member States sent verification requests on a total of 3798 EUR1 or invoice declarations to Israel’s customs authorities beginning August 2000.
I april 2001 rapporterede de involverede medlemsstater til Kommissionen, at Israels svar var "undvigende og derfor ikke acceptable".
In April 2001 the Member States involved reported to the Commission that Israel’s replies were ‘evasive and therefore not acceptable’.
Den 15. maj 2001 oplyste kommissær Patten i et svar på en forespørgsel under henvisning til fællesskabsretten: "... eller hvis svaret ikke indeholder tilstrækkelig information til at fastslå det pågældende dokuments ægthed eller produkternes reelle oprindelse, skal medlemsstatens toldmyndigheder afslå præferentiel adgang for de pågældende produkter ".
On 15 May 2001 Commissioner Patten, quoting Community law, told us that ‘…if the reply does not contain sufficient information to determine the authenticity of the document in question or the real origin of the products, the requesting customs authorities shall refuse entitlement to the preferences ’.

Om: Udviklingen på udbudsområdet
Subject: Developments conerning tendering procedures
EF-Domstolen har i nogle nyere domme anlagt en praksis, der kan få store praktiske følger for offentlige myndigheders og offentlige virksomheders indkøb af varer, arbejder og tjenesteydelser.
In a number of recent judgments, the Court of Justice has established a precedent which may have major practical implications for the purchase of goods, works and services by public authorities and public enterprises.
EF-Domstolen strækker forbuddet mod nationalitetsdiskrimination så langt som til at påbyde en form for forudgående offentliggørelse af ønsket om at indgå kontrakt, selv om indkøbets størrelse ligger under de almindeligt gældende tærskelværdier og procedurerne i EU's udbudsdirektiver derfor ikke skulle gælde.
The Court of Justice has stretched the ban on discrimination on grounds of nationality so far as to require a form of advance publication of the wish to conclude a contract even if the value of the purchase is below the generally applicable thresholds and the procedures under the EU's directives on tendering do not apply.
Derudover har EF-Domstolen som noget nyt fastslået, at en udbyder, der ønsker at anføre et bestemt fabrikat for at beskrive det, man ønsker at købe, skal anføre ”eller dermed ligestillet”.
In addition, the Court of Justice has established an innovation in that a party inviting tenders who wishes to name a particular make to describe a desired purchase must also state 'or the equivalent'.
Hvis man ønsker at udbrede visse udbudsforpligtigelser til også at gælde ved indkøb under tærskelværdierne, bør det da ikke ske ved lovgivning fremfor via domstolens praksis?
If certain obligations concerning tendering are to be extended to apply to purchases below the threshold values, should this not be accomplished by means of legislation rather than the case law of the Court of Justice?
Og har Kommissionen været opmærksom på ovennævnte domstolspraksis i forbindelse med revisionen af udbudsdirektiverne?
Was the Commission aware of the above practice by the Court of Justice in relation to the revision of the directives on tendering procedures?

Under antikrigsdemonstrationer forvandles demonstranter og politibetjente til forsøgsdyr for det farlige stof CS, som er indeholdt i den tåregas, som de sidstnævnte anvender mod de førstnævnte.
During anti-war demonstrations, demonstrators and police were turned into guinea pigs in an experiment involving the hazardous substance CS present in the tear gas sprayed by the latter on the former.
Det tårefremkaldende stof CS (ortho-chlorobenzyliden-malononitril) blev ifølge den politihåndbog, der tjener som vejledning for de græske politistyrker, opdaget i 1928 af amerikanske kemikere og først taget i brug af englænderne på Cypern.
According to the 'police operations' handbook, which serves as a 'guide' for the Greek riot police (MAT), CS tear gas (orthochlorobenzylidene malononitrile) was discovered in 1928 by American chemists and was first used by the British in Cyprus.

Om: Risiko for de græske tobaksproducenters indkomster som følge af tobaksaftagernes "afpresning"
Subject: Threat to Greek tobacco growers' incomes as a result of 'blackmail' by tobacco merchants
På baggrund af den påståede forringelse af kvaliteten af de orientalske tobakssorter fra 2002-høsten, som de voldsomme regnskyl i Grækenland angiveligt skal have forårsaget, forsøger tobaksaftagerne med den græske regerings accept at presse tobaksproducenterne til at sælge deres produktion til absolutte bundpriser, idet de endog overtræder de indgåede kontrakter.
Tobacco merchants in Greece, with the complicity of the government, are using vague allegations that the intense rainfall in the country has spoiled the quality of tobacco of the oriental variety harvested in 2002 to pressure tobacco growers into selling their produce at rock-bottom prices and in contravention of applicable contracts.
Selvom regnskabsåret formelt er afsluttet, er store mængder tobak af de orientalske sorter stadig ikke blevet solgt med det resultat, at producenterne risikerer at miste deres fællesskabsstøtte.
Thus, although the marketing period is officially over, large quantities of oriental tobacco remain unsold and producers therefore also run the risk of losing the related Community subsidies.
Desuden er priserne for den tobak, der er blevet solgt, helt i bund i forhold til sidste års priser, hvilket har medført, at Grækenlands og EU's måske mest fattige landbrugeres indkomster er faldet drastisk.
Furthermore, the prices for the tobacco which has been sold are also rock-bottom compared with last year and the incomes of farmers who are possibly the poorest in Greece and the EU have therefore plummeted.
Hvilke foranstaltninger agter Kommissionen at træffe for at sikre, at al orientalsk tobak i Grækenland aftages, og at tobaksproducenternes indkomster sikres?
What measures will the Commission take to ensure that all tobacco of the oriental variety in Greece is marketed and tobacco growers' incomes safeguarded?
