Daphne er et EU-program, som har til formål at forebygge og bekæmpe alle former for vold mod børn, unge og kvinder og at beskytte ofre og folk i risikogruppen.
Because according to an own-initiative report drafted by Adamos ADAMOU (GUE/NGL, CY) for the Environment Committee biodiversity loss is as important a threat as climate change.
Ordføreren Lissi Gröner (PSE, DE) mente, at det var den eneste måde, man kunne sikre, at Daphne-programmet var synligt nok.
For over ten years now, the common agricultural policy (CAP) has included environmental measures.
Kvindeudvalget fik også sikret, at den meget vellykkede helpdesk-tjeneste vil fortsætte, og at der vil blive oprettet en tænketank, som kan yde ekspertbistand.
They ask the Commission to ban the introduction of these species and to evaluate the potential risks that genetically-modified organisms could pose to biodiversity.
Som en del af kompromiset vil Parlamentet og Rådet bede om Kommissionen om at overveje at tage initiativ til et europæisk år til bekæmpelse af vold mod børn, unge og kvinder.
They call for measures to regulate deep sea bottom trawling, and to ensure adherence to scientific recommendations when setting catch quotas.
Daphne III er den tredje fase af Daphne programmet og vil bygge på de politikker og målsætninger der var bygget op i Daphne I (2000-2003; 20 millioner euro) og Daphne II; 50 millioner euro).
MEPs in the committee stress the need to reduce imports of tropical woods and the adverse impact that biofuel production could have on tropical forests.
Programmet er åben for alle medlemsstater og kandidatlande, EFTA-lande og landene i Vestbalkan.
They also advocate stepping up the biodiversity research effort, which they say is currently "far too low."

EU-fiskeriaftale mellem EU, Grønland og Danmark
EU environment policy stays “European”
Grønland har haft en fiskeriaftale med EU, siden landet meldte sig ud af EU i 1985.
• projects will be selected by the Commission in line with a list of common criteria and priorities;
For at udskifte den gamle aftale er der nu blevet forhandlet en ny aftale på plads, som giver EU-fiskere mulighed for at fiske i de grønlandske farvande seks år frem.
For MEPs, this was a way to increase the funding for Natura 2000, a network of areas where biodiversity is protected, which today covers 18% of the surface area of the EU-15.
Den nye aftale er anderledes end de tidligere på en række punkter.
The conciliation agreement was approved unanimously on the EP side.
indstilling af direkte fiskeri efter skolæst i overensstemmelse med den videnskabelige rådgivning samt underudnyttelse, idet denne art kun må landes som bifangster
The author of the report, David MARTIN (PES, UK), states that "the integration of developing countries into the global economy is a major condition for fulfilling the aim of eradicating poverty" which is a "complex and multidimensional problem without simple solutions."
indførelse af en torskekvote på 1 000 ton i 2007; denne øges til 3 500 ton fra 2008 og derefter
Taking advantage of greater trade opportunities, however, must involve "the necessary flanking domestic policies, including redistribution and social policies and a real improvement in the capacity for good governance."
Baggrund om fiskeriaftaler mellem EU og Grønland
The report states that AfT currently incorporates trade policy and regulation, trade development, trade-related adjustment, trade-related infrastructure, and productive capacity.
De tidligere aftaler, herunder protokollen fra 2001 til 2006 blev kritiseret af Europa-Parlamentet og Revisionsretten, fordi man med protokollen forsøger at ride på to heste samtidig - nemlig at yde kompensation for adgangen til at fiske i grønlandske farvande og yde budgetstøtte til det grønlandske hjemmestyre.
These categories, are, the report says, "valuable in that they reflect well the wide-ranging trade-related needs of developing countries" but overlap when used to define the different components of AfT.
Rådet erklærede i den forbindelse, at man ønskede at basere samarbejdet med Grønland på to separate søjler - en fiskeripartnerskabsaftale og en bredere samarbejdsordning med Grønland.
The report adds that development "is not simply economic development but also development in areas such as health, education, human rights, environmental protection and political freedom."
Den aftale som Parlamentet skal stemme om udgør den første søjle; den anden søjle vil tage form af en særskilt rådsafgørelse.
The Aft agenda will therefore incorporate "specific assistance for putting in place legislation for the effective compliance with the core labour standards set out in the ILO conventions, and also appropriate and effective environmental legislation."
Den finansielle modydelse fastsættes til 15.847.244 euro årligt, inklusive et beløb på 3.261.449 euro, der er øremærket til at hjælpe Grønland med at udarbejde og gennemføre sit flerårige sektorprogram for fiskeriet.
The report stresses that "country ownership is crucial" and in this respect, AfT must be "designed and implemented as an integral part of developing countries' own economic and developmental strategies."
Til gengæld vil EU-flåderne modtage kvoter for en række vigtige fiskebestande, herunder torsk, rødfisk, hellefisk, helleflynder, rejer, lodde og snekrabbe.
Consequently, Aft will provide "specific, tailor-made assistance" to developing countries "based on their own needs, strategies, priorities and assets."
En større forskel mellem de tidligere Grønlands-aftaler og AVS-aftalerne var, at EU-redere ikke skulle betale licens, hvilket affødte klager over forskelsbehandling.
In order to help achieve these objectives, the committee asks the Commission to set out "a specific work programme how it is going to implement its pledge to increase current and planned Community funding to support AfT from the current average of approximately EUR 850 million per year to EUR 1 billion per year."
Kommissionen indførte således en licensafgift i forbindelse med midtvejsrevisionen i 2004.
There is also a need for "better coordination and coherence among various aid donors that reflects the proven competence of the agencies involved in delivering effective high-quality assistance in various AfT area."
Den skønner, at disse licensafgifter udgør ca. 2 mio. euro årligt under den nuværende aftale.
The report emphasises that "transparency in the delivery of aid and effective monitoring and evaluation are essential for building confidence in developing countries and for the continuous improvement of the quality of assistance."

Endelig afstemning om økologiske produkter?
EU can do more to reap from the "concrete benefits" of global trade
Den 29. marts stemte Parlamentet en lang række ændringsforslag til en forordning om strengere regler for økologiske produkter, særligt for at undgå forurening af GMO.
Daniel CASPARY (EPP-ED, DE), author of the report, says that the EU has managed to achieve "a high degree of global competitiveness vis-à-vis its main competitors" but that there is still the need to maintain "a sufficiently wide and diversified industrial base."
I betænkningen af Marie-Helene AUBERT (Verts/ALE, FR) som blev vedtaget i marts, gik MEP'erne ind for strengere regler i forhold til økologisk landbrug - og især i forhold til grænserne for, hvor meget utilsigtet GMO, der skal tolereres i de økologiske varer.
In addition to its ability "to finance technological progress" this monetary policy should, the report says, "increase competition on the internal market, bearing in mind that the fiercer competition is within the EU, the more able EU-based companies will be to compete outside the EU."
Parlamentet ønskede at sænke grænsen til 0,1%.
Fair economic development
Og det var med et stort flertal af 585 stemmer for, 35 imod og 38 at Parlamentet bad om, at denne forordning skulle behandles efter den fælles beslutningsprocedure.
The EU is "very attractive in the eyes of exporters the world over", states the report, and this allows for "considerable leverage...both in the multilateral framework and in the bilateral and regional framework."
Men selv om Parlamentet kun har høringsret i dette spørgsmål, kan Rådet ikke afslutte lovgivningsprocessen uden Parlamentets input.
Given the delay in the talks and the lack of readiness on the part of the ACP countries, MEPs in the Trade Committee call in a report for the Commission to make the conditions for the agreements less onerous.
Det har været Parlamentets pressionsmiddel i forhold til de forhandlinger, som har stået på den seneste tid, hvor Parlamentets ordfører har forsøgt at overbevise Rådet og Kommissionen om, at sagen skal behandles efter den fælles beslutningsprocedure.
The three objectives of these agreements - to facilitate access for ACP products to the European market via a free-trade area, to develop South-South trade and to support the process of regional integration - are causing concern in ACP countries, so the own-initiative report, drawn up by Robert STURDY (EPP-ED, UK) calls for the "pacing, timing and scope of liberalisation to be gradual and flexible in order to improve ACP regional integration and competitiveness."
Forhandlingerne forventes at fortsætte lige op til samlingen og det er meningen, at Parlamentets ordfører Marie-Helene Aubert skal fremlægge resultatet for kollegaerne i salen.
MEPs in the committee ask for "duty-free, quota-free market access for the ACP as well as simplified, liberalised and more flexible rules of origin in EPAs that is the case under EBA [the 'Everything but Arms' initiative]".
I modsat fald vil betænkningen endnu engang blive sendt tilbage til udvalget.
The state of advancement of the negotiations differs substantially between the various regions concerned.
Den 24. april afviste Parlamentet på baggrund af en forespørgsel fra Rådet at have en haste-afstemning om betænkningen.
On the liberalisation of key services such as water, transport and energy, the report asks that this should respect the right of each country freely to regulate its public services.
I begrundelsen for at afvise en hasteafstemning sagde ordføreren, at der ingen grund var til at haste en forordning igennem, som først ville gælde fra 1. januar 2009.
Finally, the report calls for the creation of a Parliamentary Oversight Committee on EPAs, to be made up of EU and ACP parliamentarians, which would meet alongside the ACP-EU Joint Parliamentary Assembly, rather than as a separate institution.

Europas fremtid/Europæisk integration
Economic and monetary affairs
Debat om Europas fremtid
Call to scrap mandatory minimum excise duties on alcohol
Tirsdag og onsdag vil der være debat om Europas fremtid med to fremtrædende medlemmer af Det Europæiske Råd, Romano Prodi og Jan Peter Balkenende.
The Commission is now proposing that these minimum levels (which were set as absolute amounts, not as a percentage) should be increased in line with inflation since 1992.
Efter præsidentvalget i Frankrig, hvor den nye franske præsident, Nicolas Sarkozy har udtalt, at han går ind for en 'mini-traktat', bliver blikket vendt mod Holland, som også stemte nej til forfatningstraktaten for to år siden.
The Committee, however, in a report by Astrid LULLING (EPP-ED, LU), argues that the minimum levels have failed to achieve the desired convergence in excise duties, and that they should therefore be scrapped.
Den hollandske premierminister, Jan Peter Balkenende, vil onsdag debattere Europas fremtid med MEP'erne.
Instead, MEPs in the committee are proposing a code of conduct which would encourage Member States with duties above the EU average to freeze and gradually lower them, and those with duties below the average to consider raising them by an appropriate amount.
Dagen inden vil MEP'erne have lejlighed til at diskutere samme emne med hans italienske kollega, Romano Prodi.
The report was adopted in committee with 19 vote in favour, 15 against and 2 abstentions and will now be debated and put to the vote by the full Parliament.

Forenkling af landbrugspolitikken
CAP: yes to simplification, no to policy changes by the back door
Landbrugsudvalget anbefaler Parlamentet at acceptere EU-Kommissionens forslag om at forenkle EU's fælles landbrugspolitik ved at sammenlægge de eksisterende 21 sektorspecifikke landbrugsforordninger i én forordning.
The Agriculture Committee is recommending that Parliament endorse the European Commission's proposal to simplify the EU's common agricultural policy by merging the 21 existing sector-specific market organisations (CMOs) into a single regulation.
Dog mener udvalget i betænkningen, som Niels BUSK (ALDE, DK) har været ordfører på, at der kun skal være tale om en teknisk forenkling, og at det ikke må føre til at indføre reformer af bagdøren.
However, the committee says this decision should be solely "an act of technical simplification" and must not introduce reforms through the back door.
Fire forvaltningskomiteer
Keep pig market intervention, include wines and fruit and vegetables later
I forbindelse med forenklingen foreslår Kommissionen, at der kun skal være én forvaltningskomité til at forvalte ordningerne.
All political provisions, however, should continue to be adopted by the Council after consulting the European Parliament, the committee insists.
Landbrugsudvalget mener, at det vil kunne rejse tvivl om, hvorvidt det er muligt at sikre, at den nødvendige sektorekspertise er til stede.
According to the committee, establishing a single Management Committee for all agricultural sectors as suggested by the Commission would raise doubts as to how to ensure that the necessary sectoral expertise is available.
MEP'erne ønsker derfor fire forvaltningskomiteer for henholdsvis kød, mejeriprodukter, grøntsager og flerårige afgrøder.
MEPs therefore call for the setting up of four management committees, one for meat, one for dairy products, one for vegetables and one for perennial crops.
I landbrugsspørgsmål har Parlamentet kun en rådgivende rolle.
The reform is intended to combine them into a single basic regulation so as to streamline and simplify the legal framework without changing the underlying agricultural policies of the EU.
De fælles markedsordninger er EU's bestemmelser, der regulerer produktion og handel med landbrugsprodukter i alle medlemsstaterne i Den Europæiske Union (EU).
The committee voted to reject the Commission proposal when it adopted a consultation report by Béla GLATTFELDER (EPP-ED, HU) by 24 votes to 10.
Siden indførelsen af den fælles landbrugspolitik har de gradvis erstattet de nationale markedsordninger i de sektorer, hvor det var nødvendigt.
Even if the plenary endorses the committee's view, Parliament's position is not binding on the Council of Ministers, which has to take a decision on the Commission's proposal.
De dækker omkring 90% af EU's samlede landbrugsproduktion.
According to the Commission, Community stocks were 5.6 million tonnes in 2005/2006 and could reach 15.6 million tonnes by 2013.
Følgende produkter er omfattet af en fælles markedsordning: korn, svinekød, æg og fjerkrækød, frugt og grøntsager, bananer, vin, mejeriprodukter, oksekød, ris, olivenolie, spiseoliven, sukker, planter og blomster, tørret foder, forarbejdede frugter og grøntsager, tobak, hør og hamp, humle, frø, fåre- og gedekød og andre landbrugsprodukter, som der ikke findes nogen specifik markedsordning for.
Parliament's rapporteur argues, on the basis of professional forecasts, that the Commission's analysis assumes a linear increase in stocks which does not reflect market trends: a currently high market price of around €120/tonne, a lower than average crop yield in 2006 and a fall in intervention stocks to 4.28 million tonnes at the end of 2006, together with the expected increase in world consumption and the growth in the biofuels market, which is set to be an important market for maize.

Fri bevægelighed for tjenesteydelser
Research and innovation
Skal sundhedsydelserne tilbage i Servicedirektivet?
A new innovation strategy for Europe
Da Servicedirektivet blev vedtaget, var sundhedsydelser undtaget reglerne.
Europe needs a broad-based innovation strategy to boost its competitiveness, says the Committee for Industry, Research and Energy in an own-initiative report which is to be put for approval to Parliament's plenary.
Parlamentet skal i Strasbourg stemme om en betænkning, der foreslår, at sundhedsydelserne skal tilbage i servicedirektivet.
To facilitate the transfer of knowledge between research centres and businesses, the committee suggests the creation of 'knowledge regions', a reform of European patent law and tax breaks for companies that invest in research and innovation.
Betænkningen af Bernadette Vergnaud (PSE, FR) blev vedtaget i Udvalget for Indre marked med et meget snævert flertal den 8. maj (20 stemmer for, 18 imod og to der undlod).
"The paradox of the situation in Europe is that we have highly developed centres for the development of knowledge - centres of excellence, but with little economic impetus to use that knowledge as a basis for developing innovative activities", states the author of the report, Adam GIEREK (PES, PL).
Det snævre flertal skyldtes, at den betænkning, som oprindeligt skulle have handlet om konsekvenserne af ikke at have sundhedsydelserne med i direktivet, pludselig kom til at handle om noget helt andet, da et ændringsforslag om at inkludere sundhedsydelserne i direktivet blev vedtaget.
To improve "knowledge transfer" between research centres and industry, the committee urges Member States to promote "knowledge regions" or "clusters" - i.e. regional networks of businesses, suppliers, and research centres, such as Silicon Valley in the USA.
Betænkning giver en række anbefalinger i forhold til EU og sundhedssektoren forud for eventuelle nye regler om patientmobilitet i EU og som en reaktion på Kommissionens papir om, hvilke initiativer EU skal tage i forhold til sundhedsydelser.
These clusters should build on the experience of Euroregions, which already possess established cross-border structures and social networks.
Flere og flere patienter vælger at lade sig behandle i et andet EU-land, og det er med det i baghovedet, at MEP'erne i udvalget foreslår, at alle medlemslande skal behandle alle EU borgere på lige vilkår i forhold til at få adgang til behandling - uanset om det er 'offentlige' eller 'private' patienter.
Furthermore, members of the committee stress that a future European Institute of Technology (EIT), which the Commission is proposing should be set up, should invest in the relationship between knowledge institutions and businesses by focusing on innovation.
Men selv om patienter skal have frihed til at vælge at blive behandlet i et andet land, skal man ikke aktivt forsøge at opfordre til 'hospitals-turisme".
The institute should help "to boost competition in innovation fields" and could make "a significant contribution to translating Europe’s potential for innovation into practice."
Eftersom 'traktaten [...] og Domstolens praksis finder anvendelse på sundhedsydelser" konkluderede MEP'erne, at udbydere af sundhedsydelser fuldt ud kan etablere sig og levere deres ydelser i en anden medlemsstat, hvis de overholder nationale regler og EU-regler.
Member States should therefore use public funds to establish risk capital funds in the form of public-private partnerships in regions and fields "having innovative potential and a sound knowledge base."
Dermed nedstemte udvalget også ordførerens forslag om, at Kommissionen skulle komme med et særskilt direktiv om sundhedsydelserne.
The Commission and Member States should therefore - in the context of the new Community patent - work on "a procedure for eliminating trivial patents and sleeping patents filed for the sole purpose of obstruction."
På grund af denne radikale ændring valgte de socialdemokratisk MEP'ere, inklusive ordføreren selv, at stemme imod betænkningen i udvalget.
The committee also calls for alternative legal measures to defend inventors and emerging models of creation against blackmail and abuse of the law, such as FLOSS (free/libre/open source software) licensing systems.

Kritik af Rådet i forhold til udenrigspolitikken
Greater efforts for promoting decent work in the EU and worldwide
Udenrigsudvalget kritiserer i skarpe vendinger Rådet for ikke at have inddraget Parlamentet i de vigtigste aspekter og valg angående planlæggelsen af den fælles udenrigs- og sikkerhedspolitik (FUSP) 2007.
In order to better promote decent work for all, the Employment and Social Affairs Committee urges the Member States and the candidate countries to ratify and fully implement all relevant conventions of the International Labour Organisation (ILO).
Udvalget understreger også nødvendigheden i at oprette en position som udenrigsminister for EU.
MEPs in the committee also speak up for a decent work development programme, minimum wages and a label for products that are produced in conformity with core labour standards.
Udvalget er i betænkningen af (Elmar BROK, PPE-DE, DE) endnu engang træt af, at Rådet ikke inddrager Parlamentet mere, når udenrigspolitikken skal fastlægges.
According to the committee the implementation of ILO conventions should also be part of the EU's neighbourhood and external policies.
Ifølge artikel 21 skal Formandskabet nemlig også se til, at 'der tages behørigt hensyn til Europa-Parlamentets synspunkter'.
In order to improve the working conditions within the EU, MEPs in the committee plead for minimum wages "as a safety-net to prevent people from being exploited" and for broader access to lifelong learning opportunities and for greater harmonisation of pension schemes.
