Parlamentet giver grønt lys for pause i braklægning
Making it easier for EU citizens living abroad to stand or vote in EP elections
Europa-Parlamentet bakkede onsdag i en hasteprocedure op om Kommissionens forslag om at sætte en stopper for den obligatoriske braklægning af marker indtil næste forår.
MEPs adopted a report on a Commission proposal that would make it easier for EU citizens to stand or vote in European Parliament elections while living in Member States other than their own.
Det sker for at imødekomme de stigende priser på korn.
The report was drafted by Andrew Duff MEP.
Med Parlamentets accept, kunne landbrugsministrene derfor samme dag nå at vedtage forordningen - i tide i forhold til efterårets såning.
MEPs believe more needs to be done to implement the directive in full, notably on issues such as legal redress, the burden of proof in racial discrimination cases, awareness-raising, data collection and the independence of anti-discrimination bodies.
På vej mod Det Europæiske Institut for Innovation og Teknologi
Male-female equality in Europe
Parlamentet bakkede onsdag med stort flertal op om Kommissionens forslag til at oprette et europæisk teknologisk institut, men MEP'erne ønsker, at instituttets navn også skal indeholde ordet "innovation".
Parliament adopted a report on equality between women and men in the EU in 2007 which takes as its starting point the fourth annual Commission report on gender equality and gender mainstreaming in policy areas.

Åbning af samlingen
Third rail package approved - opening up the rail market and European licenses for train drivers
Han var britisk medlem af Gruppen for Det Europæiske Folkeparti (Kristelige Demokrater) og De Europæiske Demokrater, og var især engageret i forhold til forbindelserne til Rusland efter Kommunismens fald.
The vote brings to an end a legislative process on passenger rail services which was launched in 2004 and follows on from earlier rail packages dealing with freight traffic.
Han var medlem af Parlamentet indtil 2003.
Liberalising the rail market: international routes first
Bethell var med til at tage initiativ til Sakharov-prisen for tankefrihed, som uddeles hvert år.
International passenger rail services within the EU will be opened up to competition from 1 January 2010.
Efter debatten om Tchad onsdag, vil der blive tilføjet en debat om situationen i Myanmar.
Parliament's rapporteur on this directive was Georg Jarzembowski (EPP-ED, DE).
- Sakharovpris 2007: Listen på fem nominerede bliver reduceret til tre ved en afstemning i Udenrigsudvalget og Udviklingsudvalget.
This would lead to a revival of the Community's cross-border railway transport and to a better environment".
De fem nominerede er: Bartolomæus I, Patriarken af Konstantinopel, Zeng Jinyan og Hu Jia, kinesiske menneskerettighedsforkæmpere, Malalai Joya, afghansk parlamentsmedlem og forkæmper for kvinders rettigheder, Salih Mahmoud Osman, sudanesisk menneskerettighedsadvokat samt Anna Politkovskaja afdød russisk journalist og menneskerettighedsaktivist.
Mr Jarzembowski regretted that no required parliamentary majority was reached at second reading for the opening of national railway services to competition.
Den endelige prismodtager vil blive fundet den 25. oktober.
But he referred to the agreement reached in conciliation on a report on the application of the directive to be tabled by the Commission in 2012.
- Debatter og afstemninger om ligestilling og ligebehandling uanset race og etnisk oprindelse.
Following pressure from Parliament, whose rapporteur was Gilles Savary (PES, FR), no more than 12 months after this the Commission must present a report accompanied, if appropriate, by a proposal for a new law.
-//EP//TEXT IM-PRESS 20070823BRI09775 ITEM-004-DA DOC XML V0//DA
"The agreement is an example of good social dialogue at European level and of social interoperability also for others than train drivers".
Grundlæggende rettigheder
Basic rights for all passengers
Mandag aften valgte Udenrigsudvalget og Udviklingsudvalget de tre finalister til årets Sakharovpris.
Under the deal reached between the two institutions, when the law enters into force in 2009 all rail passengers will enjoy a set of basic rights (e.g. regarding rail companies' liability for passengers and their luggage, and the right to transport of people with reduced mobility).
De tre finalister er: Salih Mahmoud Osman, Anna Politkovskaja samt Zeng Jinyan og Hu Jia.
Urban, suburban and regional services can be granted an indefinite exemption from those same provisions.
Den endelige afgørelse om, hvem der skal modtage Parlamentets pris for tankefrihed i 2007, vil blive taget af Formandskonferencen den 25. oktober.
When the law enters into force, compensation in the event of delays on cross-border services will be 25% of the fare for a delay of 60 minutes or more and 50% for a delay of 120 minutes or more, but only if the operator can be held responsible for the delay.
Overrækkelsesceremonien finder sted den 11. december i Strasbourg.
And eventually these arrangements will apply to all long-distance services.
Osman arbejder sammen med den sudanesiske organisation mod tortur, som giver gratis juridisk assistance til de mange ofre for borgerkrigen og overtrædelser af menneskerettigheder.
It had been very difficult to convince all Member States that a range of basic rights for passengers should be introduced.
- Anna Politkovskaja (afdød), russisk journalist og menneskerettighedsaktivist.
"The proposals were originally intended to apply only to international journeys, but thanks to this agreement we have succeeded in extending it to include passengers on domestic journeys".
Politkovskaja, som var kendt for sin modstand mod konflikten i Tjetjenien, blev skudt den 7. oktober 2006.
He admitted that the exemptions for railway undertakings up to 15 years were not what Parliament had wished, but said that the agreement as such was important step forward.
- Zeng Jinyan og Hu Jia, kinesiske menneskerettighedsforkæmpere: Zeng Jinyan rapporterer dagligt på sin weblog om overtrædelser af menneskerettighederne i Kina, Hendes mand Hu Jia, er en AIDS- og miljøaktivist.
The chair of Parliament's negotiating team, Vice-President Alejo Vidal-Quadras (EPP-ED, ES) said: "This is a genuinely European law.
Europa-Parlamentet har siden 1988 uddelt Sakharov-prisen for tankefrihed til personer eller organisationer, der bekæmper undertrykkelse, intolerance og uretfærdighed.
It gets away from old-fashioned obsessions with national borders and gives basic rights to passengers on all railway journeys (not just to those on international services, as the Council wanted).
Prisen er opkaldt efter den russiske systemkritiker Andrei Sakharov (1921-1989) og gives til personer eller organisationer for at anerkende bedrifter inden for forsvaret for menneskerettigheder og grundlæggende frihedsrettigheder, navnlig ytringsfriheden, beskyttelse af mindretals rettigheder, respekt for folkeretten og udvikling af demokrati og gennemførelse af retsstatslige forhold.
In particular, passengers on all long-distance journeys will be treated the same, whether or not their journey crosses national borders."
Med prisen følger et beløb på 50.000 euro.

Bedre rettigheder til togpassagerer i hele EU
Burma: prepare targeted economic sanctions, say MEPs
Bedre rettigheder til togpassagererne, mere konkurrence på togdriften og fælles regler for jernbanepersonalet.
The European Parliament has added its voice to the protests mounting worldwide against the Burmese security forces' violent repression of anti-government demonstrations.
Det var indholdet af den "tredje jernbanepakke", som Parlamentet vedtog tirsdag.
In a resolution adopted by 563 votes to 3 with 4 abstentions, MEPs backed the demonstrators, condemned the brutal reaction of the authorities and called for the international community to prepare "targeted economic sanctions" against the regime should it fail to respond.
Tirsdag kunne Parlamentet efter lange seje forhandlinger med Rådet lægge sidste hånd på den tredje jernbanepakke.
The resolution adopted today "applauds the courageous action of the Burmese monks and tens of thousands of other peaceful demonstrators in confronting the anti-democratic and repressive regime in Burma and utterly condemns the brutal response by the Burmese authorities".
Han understreger, at Kommissionen senest i 2012 skal aflægge rapport vedrørende mulighederne for en yderligere liberalisering af jernbanesektoren.
With a visiting parliamentary delegation from China looking on from the gallery of the Chamber, Parliament chose to send a pointed message regarding their government's role in the situation.
Det sker med tanke på den indenlandske personbefordring, som i første omgang ikke er omfattet af direktivet.
The resolution calls on China - and also Russia - to fully support a UN Security Council statement condemning the regime's use of brutal force.
Det indgår i forliget, at den internationale passagertrafik kan pålægges en afgift til de nationale jernbaneselskaber.
Parliament also calls on the Security Council itself "to empower the UN Secretary-General to take action in order to facilitate national reconciliation and a transition to democracy in Burma, and for the UN General Assembly to take appropriate action".
Denne afgift skal kompensere de pågældende selskaber for de udgifter, som de har i forbindelse med opfyldelsen af deres forsyningspligt på det indenlandske jernbanenet.
EU to take lead in pushing for targeted economic sanctions
Georg Jarzembowski understreger, at de samlede pålagte afgifter ikke må bringe den økonomiske bæredygtighed i fare for den internationale personbefordring, som pålægges afgiften.
In a key demand, MEPs press "the EU Council as a matter of urgency, to liaise with the United States, ASEAN and other members of the international community in order to prepare a co-ordinated series of additional measures, including targeted economic sanctions, that might be taken against the Burmese regime if it resorts to violence and does not respond to the call for a return to democracy".
Det var oprindeligt meningen, at forordningen om passagerers rettigheder kun skulle gælde for internationale togrejser.
Parliament has sought to draw attention to the situation in Burma in numerous resolutions over the years, including one earlier this month.
Men Parlamentets delegation til Forligsudvalget har med Dirk STERCKX (ALDE, BE) som ordfører opnået, at den skal gælde for alle passagerer, uanset destination.
EU measures currently in place include a travel ban on Burma's leaders, an arms embargo and a ban on military cooperation - but no economic sanctions.
Når forordningen træder i kraft i slutningen af 2009, nyder alle jernbanepassagerer godt af et sæt af grundlæggende rettigheder (som f.eks. omfatter jernbanevirksomhedernes erstatningsansvar for passagerer og deres bagage samt bevægelseshæmmedes befordringsret).
The EU and the USA yesterday issued a joint declaration, which, among other things, calls on the Security Council to "consider further steps including sanctions".
Denne kompensation udgør 25 % af rejsens pris for forsinkelser på mellem 60 og 120 minutter, og 50 % af rejsens pris for forsinkelser på over 120 minutter.
In Wednesday's debate prior to the vote, Mr Lobo Antunes, Council President-in-Office, said Burma was "at a crossroads".
De kan også give undtagelser på ubestemt tid for befordringstjenester i byområder og omkringliggende områder samt regionale befordringstjenester.
Commissioner Louis Michel said the international community must try to persuade the government to promote national reconciliation and that in particular China, India, Japan, South Korea and ASEAN must be convinced to play their part.
De skal i så fald tilskynde jernbanevirksomhederne til at indføre ordninger for kompensation og assistance i tilfælde af alvorlige forstyrrelser af en jernbanetjeneste.
The imminent visit to the country of the UN Special Envoy would be very important.
Jernbanevirksomhederne skal underrette passagererne om deres rettigheder og forpligtelser efter forordningen.
If the Burmese regime was willing to set out a roadmap leading to dialogue and elections, it could count on the EU's support.
De skal også indføre ikke-diskriminerende adgangsregler for befordring af handicappede og bevægelseshæmmede.
Among the EP political group speakers, Geoffrey Van Orden (UK) for the EPP-ED said "the EU prides itself on its attention to human rights and yet seems incapable of acting effectively against tyrannical regimes", but now "it is high time we stopped wringing our hands and got serious".
Befordring af barnevogne og kørestole er omfattet af forordningens bestemmelser.
Mr Van Orden added that the EU must adopt tougher sanctions - and stick to them.
I første omgang gælder direktivet kun for lokomotivførere.
It was no longer an option for the regime "to batten down the hatches".
Men Parlamentets ordfører Gilles SAVARY (PSE, FR) fremhæver, at direktivet med tiden kan blive udvidet til at omfatte andre personalegrupper.
She called on Burma to press ahead with its long-awaited constitution and hold democratic elections.
Det lykkedes nemlig Parlamentets delegation til Forligsudvalget at sikre, at Kommissionen senest 30 måneder efter direktivets ikrafttræden skal forelægge en rapport om togpersonale, der varetager sikkerhedsopgaver.
Annemie Neyts-Uyttebroeck (ALDE, NL), on behalf of her group, said that the EU must protest, "not just with words but with deeds", though like other speakers she stressed the key role of Burma's neighbouring countries.
I de tilfælde skal Kommissionen fremlægge et lovgivningsmæssigt forslag vedrørende det omtalte personale.
The oppression in the country was not just political - there was poverty too, despite its rich natural resources.
Hun var umiddelbart tilfreds med forliget, og nævnte at det allerede havde ført til ændringer i Danmark.
For the UEN group, Brian Crowley (IE) wondered if people had to be "gunned down in the streets and it to appear on television cameras before the international community will respond".
"Arbejdet med denne lovgivning og Parlamentets forslag om passagerrettigheder har inspireret til, at togselskaberne i mit land, i Danmark, frivilligt har gennemført regler om erstatning til passagerer.
He added "We can no longer remain silent" and said "let us act to condemn the violence against peaceful protest but let us also ensure that we can give support to those protesters".
Det betyder, at pendlerne nu også har ret til erstatning, når de rammes af forsinkelser, og det sker jo ind imellem.
Raul Romeva (ES), for the Greens/EFA group, said Burma was facing a situation of no-return and that the demonstrators had sent a clear message to the junta and the world.
Det er ikke mindst pendlerne, vi skal sikre gode vilkår, og sikre, at de opfatter togtransport som et godt og attraktivt alternativ til andre og mere energikrævende transportformer," sagde hun.
He added his voice to the calls to free members of the opposition, including Aung San Suu Kyi.

Sukker: Producenterne skal kompenseres bedre for omstruktureringerne
EP urges Council to present a resolution on the moratorium on the death penalty to the UN
Parlamentet vedtog tirsdag to betænkninger i forhold til sukkerreformen og de kommende omstruktureringer for sukkerindustrien.
MEPs called on the Council to present a resolution on the moratorium on the death penalty to the 62nd UN General Assembly, in order to adopt it before the end of the year.
Parlamentet ønsker at kompensere producenterne yderligere for omstruktureringerne.
In a resolution passed by 504 votes in favour, 45 against with 14 abstentions, the House also reiterates its full support for the establishment of a European Day against the death penalty on 10 October, calling on the future Polish government to fully support this initiative.
Parlamentets holdning i landbrugsspørgsmål er kun vejledende, men afgørelsen betyder, at landbrugsministrene nu vil kunne færdiggøre arbejdet med de nye initiativer.
The Council has been unable to reach a decision on the European Day against the death penalty, because the Polish government has been blocking it.
I februar 2006 enedes EU's landbrugsministre om en reform af sukkerproduktionen i EU.
It argues that any such day should also condemn abortion and euthanasia.
Den gamle sukkerordning var blevet uholdbar.
Worldwide moratorium on the death penalty
Prisen på sukker var tre gange højere end verdensmarkedsprisen.
The House urged the Presidency to "present a resolution on the moratorium at the opening of the 62nd United Nations General Assembly, [...] in order to adopt it before the end of this year."
Det var blevet konstateret, at EU's eksportsystem var i modstrid med de internationale handelsregler.
During the debate yesterday afternoon, the Presidency stated that it would table a resolution "by early- to mid-October."
Desuden vil EU fra 2009 åbne sit marked helt for import fra de 49 fattigste lande i verden.
The UN's Third Committee (social, humanitarian and cultural affairs) could vote on the draft resolution in October of this year, allowing for a vote in the General Assembly in December.
I maj 2007 kom EU-Kommissionen derfor med nogle forslag, som skulle gøre det attraktivt for sukkerproducenterne at opgive en del af produktionen.
The two key topics were the status of the resolution to be submitted to the UN General Assembly on a universal moratorium against the death penalty, and the Polish opposition in the Council to establishing a European Day against the death penalty.
Støtte til producenter og regioner
Political group speakers
På den baggrund har Parlamentet med Katerina BATZELI (PSE, GR) som ordfører udarbejdet to betænkninger, hvor MEP'erne kommer med en række ændringsforslag til Kommissionens forslag, som skal forbedre kompensationen til producenterne og de berørte regioner.
For the Socialists, Martin SCHULZ (PES, DE) cited an interview with Polish President Lech Kaczynski, in which the latter expressed his support for the death penalty, but noted that the political climate in Europe did not favour its reintroduction.
