Det understreges i betænkningen, at NATO i tilfælde af angreb fra et tredjelands styrker på EU's territorium fortsat er garanten for det kollektive forsvar i Europa.
Although the report "emphasises that, in the event of an attack by the armed forces of a third country on the territory of the Union, NATO remains the guarantor of collective defence," it "points out that the EU is on the way to developing into a Defence and Security Union, as well."
Samtidig påpeger udvalget imidlertid, at EU også er ved at udvikle sig til en sikkerheds- og forsvarsunion.
MEPs called on the Commission and Member States "to develop a system of integrated management of the Union's external borders."
Selvom Forfatningstraktaten stadig ligger i dvale, fremhæver MEP'erne alligevel betydningen af forskellige bestemmelser i traktaten, hvor der lægges op til en solidaritetsklausul i forbindelse med naturkatastrofer og en klausul om gensidig bistand i tilfælde af angreb på en medlemsstat.
In addition, the report "stresses the importance of the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe," especially the sections that would set up a solidarity clause in case of catastrophes, and a clause on mutual assistance, in case of an attack on one of the Member States.
Udvalget støtter samtidig traktatens forslag om at etablere en post som EU-udenrigsminister med en vice-udenrigsminister med ansvar for den europæiske sikkerheds og forsvarspolitik (ESFP).
It favours the Constitution's plans to create a post of European Foreign Minister, as well as supporting the creation of a Deputy Foreign Minister in charge of security and defence policy.
Endvidere støtter det oprettelse af en permanent europæisk flådestyrke i Middelhavet for at demonstrere europæisk tilstedeværelse og øge EU’s krisestyringsmuligheder i regionen.
The Parliament also focused on preventive measures, emphasising that "the Union, in light of new threats, must be ready to act before crises break out and take early preventive action," although always in line with the United Nations Charter.
Det bliver dog understreget, at EU uden undtagelse skal tage udgangspunkt i FN-chartret (27).
MEPs considered that "the EU should promote measures to harmonise equipment and armaments," and to develop a joint system of telecommunications to increase the effectiveness of multinational operations.
Endelig understreger parlamentet, at et af EU's største bidrag til at forebygge den internationale terrorisme er evnen til at gå ind i en effektiv opbygning eller genopbygning af demokratiske institutioner og sociale og økonomiske infrastrukturer, sikring af god regeringsførelse og fremvæksten af et civilt samfund, samt en vellykket bekæmpelse af racisme og fremmedhad.
Members also looked forward to the Commission's interpretative communication on the application of Article 296 (which allows governments to derogate from internal market rules for reasons of national security) and called for the Code of Conduct on Arms Exports to be given the force of law.
Flere kvinder i international politik
Women in international politics
Ligelig deltagelse af mænd og kvinder i beslutningstagen er nødvendig for demokratiet, påpeger Europa-Parlamentet i en betænkning om kvinders rolle i politik, der blev vedtaget med stort flertal torsdag (377 for, 77 imod, 31 undlod).
Balanced participation by both sexes in decision-making is an essential condition for democracy, says the EP who has adopted a report focusing on the situation of women's participation in international and national politics and decision-making and proposing measures to promote women's participation.
I Europa-Parlamentet er 30 % af de 732 MEP'ere kvinder.
In the European Parliament 30 % of 732 MEPs (222) are female.
Parlamentet noterer sig de valg, der i den seneste tid har sikret kvinder det højeste embede som stats- eller regeringschef i en række medlemslande og tredjelande og glæder sig over de stats- og regeringschefer, som har udvalgt medlemmer til deres kabinetter på grundlag af objektive og ikke-diskriminerende kriterier.
The low participation of women in politics "deprives Europe of a precious human potential", says the Parliament.
Parlamentet mener, at den store ubalance udgør et grundlæggende demokratisk underskud både på europæisk plan og i international sammenhæng.
The Parliament notes that "recent elections have brought women to the highest functions as Heads of State and Government in some Member States and third countries and "congratulates the Head of Governments that have used objective and non-discriminatory criteria for the selection of the members of their cabinets".
Parlamentet kommer med en række opfordringer til det internationale samfund, medlemsstaterne i EU og til EU's institutioner.
Reconciliation of social, family and professional life
Parlamentet ønsker også, at ligestillingsinstituttet skal holde Parlamentet opdateret om dets arbejde samt om status for udviklingen inden for medlemslandene, og til at overvåge og evaluere fremskridt ved hjælp af data fra hele Europa.
MEPs encourages the inclusion of female police, civilian and military officers in EU and UN peace-keeping missions in order to enhance communication with women in local communities and local communities in general.
Samtidig lægger Parlamentet vægt på, at der ikke kun ses på tallene, men også på den reelle påvirkning, kvinder har, når det drejer sig om den nationale og internationale politiske dagsorden.
The EP also calls on political parties across Europe to promote balanced participation of both sexes on their lists of candidates.
Parlamentets eksterne delegationer og valgobservationsmissioner opfordres til at øge opmærksomheden om den kvindelige repræsentation i politik samt til at være opmærksomme på kvinders deltagelse i politik, både når det kommer til kvindelige kandidater og til kvindelige vælgere.
MEPs further stress the need to look beyond numbers, and actually focus on how women active in politics influence the shaping of governance and conflict resolution, and how they contribute towards ensuring that governance reforms, accountability and the rule of law are highly placed on the political agenda at national and international level.
Desuden opfordres Kommissionen til at analysere og formidle bedste praksis vedrørende nationale og internationale tiltag, som har til formål at sikre flere højtstående kvindelige poster i international politik.
Finally, the report emphasises that the future European Institute for Gender Equality will have an important role to promote women's representation in international politics.

Stop menneskehandlen
MEPs call for a EU action plan to fight human trafficking
Europa-Parlamentet vedtog torsdag en betænkning om bekæmpelse af menneskehandel.
The European Parliament considers that all measures implemented by the EU to reduce human trafficking have been unsuccessful and call on the Commission and the Member States to adopt an action plan to prevent and combat this criminal activity.
Betænkningen af Edit BAUER (PPE-DE, SK) indeholder forslag til en integreret strategi og en handlingsplan.
In adopting the own-initiative report by Edit Bauer (EPP-ED, SK), MEPs call for a new EU strategy to fight trafficking in human beings.
Parlamentet mener, at problemet med menneskehandel skal løses gennem en sammenhængende politisk strategi (migrations-, køns-, beskæftigelses-, social-, udviklings, udenrigs-, naboskabs- og visumpolitik).
The EP propose to adopt a more coherent approach and to implement an Action Plan that should involve all relevant policies, such as migration, gender, employment social and neighbourhood policy.
Der er hverken tid til, at de kan få den hjælp, de skal have, eller at man kan få gjort noget ved problemet."
MEPs also call on the Commission to establish a multilingual hotline with a single European number to provide first assistance.
Debatten om kriminalisering af kunderne til de prostituerede kom også på banen, men henvisninger til den svenske model, hvor kunderne kriminaliseret, blev taget ud af teksten.
In the approved recommendation, Member States are asked to provide all victims with access to education and training programmes during the criminal and administrative procedures that regard their cases.
Endvidere skal virksomheder, der bevisligt har anvendt billig arbejdskraft, som er anvist gennem menneskehandel, kunne idømmes strenge straffe, navnlig hvis de pågældende virksomheder har handlet svigagtigt.
As far as labour exploitation is concerned, MEPs recommend extremely severe penalties to be imposed on those companies employing cheap labour force supplied through human trafficking.
Det understreges i betænkningen, at det er et afgørende element i bekæmpelse af menneskehandel at skabe forståelse i offentligheden om, at menneskehandel er en uacceptabel forbrydelse.
Moreover, Member States are asked to improve labour inspections and harmonise the penalisation on labour exploitation.
Kommissionen opfordres til at indføre en adfærdskodeks for tjenestemænd i EU's institutioner og organer, navnlig når de er på EU-mission til tredjelande, i lighed med den adfærdskodeks som FN har indført.
MEPs also ask the Commission to present, no later than 2007, a study on the casual correlation between legislation on prostitution and trafficking for sexual exploitation.
Denne adfærdskodeks bør udtrykke klar afvisning af køb af seksuelle tjenesteydelser, andre former for seksuel udnyttelse og kønsbaseret vold, og bør omfatte de nødvendige sanktioner i tilfælde af overtrædelse.
In addition, Member States should encourage codes of conduct to be implemented by the tourism industry and internet providers to fight human trafficking for sexual exploitation.
Medlemsstaterne opfordres til at gribe ind over for menneskehandel, men samtidig respektere de prostituerede og undgå, at de diskrimineres, marginaliseres eller stigmatiseres yderligere.
Finally, as far as child trafficking is concerned, MEPs ask Member States to respect the UN definition of child; i.e. any individual below the age of 18.
Det foreslås at oprette en EU-webside med oplysninger om og billeder af savnede personer.
They also propose that debates on human trafficking should be part of education in schools as a means to raise awareness and prevent child trafficking.
Endvidere opfordres medlemsstaterne til at sikre bistand til ofrene, i første omgang i form af særlige krisecentre og på et senere tidspunkt mulighed for adgang til bolig, sundhedspleje og rådgivning.
MEPs also ask the Commission to address the problem of child trafficking in the sport sector, particularly in cases where some clubs may offer contracts to very young children.
Kommissionen skal komme med regler for arv over grænser
MEPs call for rules to simplify transnational successions
Hvad sker der med arven for de mennesker, der f.eks. vælger at flytte sydpå for at nyde deres otium?
In adopting a report on succession and wills by 457 votes in favour to 51 against with 22 abstentions, MEPs call on the Commission to put forward a legislative proposal to deal with succession and wills according to the detailed recommendations annexed to the text.
Det anslås, at der hvert år indledes mellem 50.000 og 100.000 arvesager af international karakter i EU.
According to a study commissioned by the European Commission in 2002, every year between 50 000 and 100 000 transnational successions arise in the European Union.
Med 457 stemmer mod 51 har Parlamentet vedtaget en betænkning, der betyder, at Kommissionen nu skal komme med lovforslag omkring arv og testamente.
Since there are significant differences between the national laws concerning succession, heirs experience difficulties when seeking to take possession of their inheritance.
Det er de store forskelle mellem de internationale privatretlige systemer og medlemslandenes materielle retssystemer i forhold til arv og testamenter, og de vanskeligheder det skaber for de efterladte, der har fået Parlamentet til at fremsætte betænkningen, som nu betyder, at Kommissionen skal komme med lovgivning på området.
According to MEPs, this situation can be improved by, at the same time, harmonising the rules concerning jurisdiction and facilitating the recognition and enforcement of judgments.
Parlamentet mener, at situationen kan blive forbedret ved at harmonisere bestemmelserne vedrørende juridiktionskompetence, lovvalg og anerkendelse og fuldbyrdelse af udenlandske domme og udenlandske officielle dokumenter (med undtagelse af medlemsstaternes materielle ret og procesret).
The new provisions would not modify the procedural law of the Member States concerning succession and wills.
Parlamentet foretrækker, at det som udgangspunkt skal være det land, hvor vedkommende bor ved sin død, der skal være afgørende for, hvilken retspraksis der skal følges, men det skal være muligt i en erklæring i form af et testamente at vælge f.eks. i stedet at følge hjemlandets regler.
The basic criteria adopted by the Members, to choose which Court is competent in cross-border litigations over a succession is the principle of the habitual place of residence of the deceased at the time of his death.
For at forenkle procedurerne i forhold til, at arvingerne kan få del i deres arv, foreslår Parlamentet at indføre en europæisk arveattest.
Nevertheless, MEPs decided to introduce some flexibility to respect the freedom of choice to the involved parties.
Det skal være en attest, der udformes efter en standardmodel, som skal gøre det muligt for arvingerne at indføre arven i de offentlige registre i arvingernes medlemsland.
The choice can be between the law of the country of which he/she is a national or the law of the country of his habitual residence at the time the choice is made.
Endelig ønsker Europa-Parlamentet, at der bliver oprettet et europæisk netværk af nationale registre over testamenter ved hjælp af en sammenkobling af de nationale registre, der skal gøre det lettere at finde frem til og kontrollere de bestemmelser, der er udtryk for den afdødes sidste vilje.
According to the approved recommendations, the heirs involved in the dispute may also agree, under some conditions, to choose the competent court
Betænkningen er en initiativbetænkning, der efter artikel 39 i Parlamentets forretningsorden gør det muligt for Parlamentet at foreslå Kommissionen at udarbejde en lovgivende tekst.
In order to simplify the procedures to be followed by the heirs to gain possession of their properties, MEPs propose to introduce a ‘European certificate of inheritance’.
Betænkningen fik, som det kræves i den type sager, absolut flertal blandt medlemmerne af Parlamentet, og det er nu op til Kommissionen at udarbejde et forslag.
In this document, issued by the competent authority, would indicate, with binding effect, the law applicable to the succession and the beneficiaries.

Slut med EU-jargon
Communication between the EU and its citizens should be improved
EU-jargonen skal lægges på hylden, kommunikationen skal blive bedre i EU, og EU skal have en større plads i det offentlige rum i medlemslandene.
Parliament says that the communication between the EU and its citizens should be improved.
Det mener Parlamentet i en initiativbetænkning af Luis HERREEO-TEJEDOR (PPE-DE, ES), som blev vedtaget med stort flertal torsdag.
It, therefore, calls on the European Commission to support the creation of a European public space dedicating sufficient coverage to European affairs throughout national, local and regional media.
(285 for, 54 imod, 6 undlod) Der er dog modstand mod, at Europa-Parlamentets kommunikation skal være omfattet af et 'adfærdskodeks'.
The own-initiative report by Luis HERRERO-TEJEDOR (EPP-ED, ES) was adopted with 285 votes in favour 54 against with 6 abstentions.
Parlamentet anbefaler Kommissionen at arbejde på at skabe en fælles europæisk media-sfære, som skal dække EU's virke, samt at lægge EU-jargonen på hylden.
In their rather critical reaction to Commissioner Margot WALLSTRÖM 's White Paper on a EU communication policy, MEPs rejected the proposal that all EU institutions should be subject to a code of conduct regulating their communication with EU citizens.
MEP'erne afviser i den forbindelse kommunikationskommissær Margot Wallströms opfordring til at forbedre EU's kommunikation gennem en fælles kommunikationskodeks.
They felt that laying down rules of conduct for the elected European Parliament could lead to adverse consequences, reducing the scope for independent opinion.
Ifølge betænkningens ordfører Luis Herrero Tejedor ville en sådan kodeks skade uafhængigheden.
The Commission is asked to propose a draft inter-institutional agreement defining the common principles between the EU institutions as regards communication.
Desuden påpeges det i betænkningen, at europæiske anliggender nødvendigvis skal have en mere fremtrædende plads i de offentlige nationale rum.
MEPs welcome the Commission's desire to communicate European issues to national, regional and local level in order to decentralise the message.
På vej mod en europæisk offentlighed
The development of a European administration would help to form strong direct links between the EU and its citizens.
Første skridt i retning af et offentligt europæisk rum kunne være at ophæve de nationale rums isolation gennem en europæisk kommunikationsaktion.
The Commission's and Parliament's information offices in the Member States play an important role in this connection.
Parlamentet opfordrer Kommissionen til at støtte oprettelsen af et offentligt europæisk rum, som primært skal struktureres gennem nationale, lokale og regionale medier.
Parliament also took the view that, in order to reach the citizens, it was important to show the relevance of EU decisions for daily life through cooperation with regional and local institutions.
Desuden understreges medlemsstaternes rolle og ansvar i forhold til EU's kommunikation.
Emphasis should be placed on communicating regularly to the citizens about relevant regional and local projects in which the EU has participated, with the objective of favouring a common European project.
Det påpeges, at det er af afgørende vigtighed, at medlemsstaterne inddrages i EU's informations- og kommunikationspolitik.
Concerning working with the media and new technologies, the Commission was asked which role it would like to assign to the media.
I betænkningen beklager Parlamentet, at der ikke er taget højde for kommunikation fra borgerne til EU i Kommissionens hvidbog.
MEPs stressed that it was needed to find a formula that involved national, regional and local media more closely in communication policy, for which the use of alternative media as a communication channel should also be considered.
Kommissionens hvidbog om EU's kommunikationspolitik er en del af handlingsplanen vedrørende kommunikationskultur.
Parliament is against the Commission's proposals for the establishment of an Observatory for European Public Opinion in the short term and took the view that, before such a task is carried out, more coordinated use should be made of the data and resources already available.
Initiativet fra Kommissionen kom som svar på det franske "non" og det hollandske "nee" til Forfatningstraktaten i 2005, hvorefter det blev besluttet at sætte fokus på kommunikationen mellem institutionerne og de europæiske borgere.
The White Paper is one of the Commission's initiatives aimed at improving the EU's interaction with its citizens following the 'no' votes in referendums on the proposed EU constitution in France and the Netherlands.
Åbning af mødet og highlights
Opening of the November plenary session in Strasbourg - postponement of the European globalisation fund debate and vote
Josep Borell åbnede november måneds samling i Parlamentet med en dagsorden, der var få ændringer til.
scheduled for this week, to allow more time to reach a first reading agreement with the Council, which only announced its position on Friday.
Det blev vedtaget at udsætte den debat, der var planlagt mandag aften om den europæiske globaliseringsfond, da forhandlingerne mellem Rådet og Parlamentet var ved at gå ind i en afgørende fase.
At the request of the Council the House agreed to use the urgent procedure to vote on the fisheries partnership agreement between the European Community and Mauritania.
1 minuts tale
Highlights of the week
Jens-Peter Bonde var den første, der fik ordet under den indledende debat, hvor alle medlemmer kan få lov til at komme med et indlæg af 1 minuts varighed om et vigtigt emne, de ønsker at få på dagsordenen.
The centrepiece of the Strasbourg November plenary is Parliament's second-reading of the Services Directive .
Han kritiserede, at de delegationer, som Parlamentets udvalg sender på besøg i de nationale Parlamenter, ikke i tilstrækkeligt omfang repræsenterede nej-sigerne til forfatningen.
Following the Council's decision to follow to a wide extent Parliament's position in first reading, MEPs are likely to approve the common position with little or no change.
Nej-sigerne udgør ifølge Bonde en fjerdedel af Parlamentets medlemmer, men det var kun 4 ud af de 58 medlemmer, som formandskonferencen sidste torsdag valgte at sende af sted, der var modstandere af forfatningen.
Nevertheless, Parliament is expected to receive a written declaration from the Commission to provide answers to what the rapporteur Evelyne GEBHARDT (PES, DE) regards as key questions: the legal scope and nature of the guidelines to be presented by the Commission to the Member States, the possibility of future harmonisation of legislation governing the provision of services, the neutrality of the Services Directive vis-à-vis labour legislation and the influence of the directive on the provision of social services.
Her er højdepunkterne for den kommende uge:
The House will also debate the dangers of mercury .
Det indeholder de vigtigste politiske prioriteringer og de lovforslag, som Kommissionen agter at fremsætte med henblik på at føre disse prioriteringer ud i livet.
However, in its amendments, the committee calls for exemptions for traditional barometers and instruments held in museum collections or put up for sale in the antiques market.
Kommissionen skal redegøre for status i de sager, der er rejst i anledning af traktatstridige restriktioner på markederne for sportsvæddemål.
The Agriculture Committee, will be recommending that Parliament reject the Commission proposal on laying down rules for voluntary modulation of direct payments, establishing common rules for direct support schemes under the common agricultural policy and establishing certain support schemes for farmers.
Desuden ønsker udvalget at gøre det nemmere at finde information og søge økonomisk støtte for personer eller organisationer, der vil fremme sproglig mangfoldighed
The report says that any EU level action should aim principally at directly improving the situation for the public, notably by widening access to mortgages, for example to people with fixed term contracts.
Grænseoverskridende realkredit Skal det være muligt at optage realkreditlån i et udenlandsk finansieringsselskab?
The House will also debate the issue of gambling and sports betting in the internal market.
Det er et af de store spørgsmål, når EP på tirsdag skal drøfte Kommissionens grønbog om realkredit i EU.
Arlene McCARTHY (PES, UK), Chair of the Internal Market Committee, will be asking the Commission questions on gambling and sports betting in the internal market.
Servicedirektivet Onsdag den 15. november er der andenbehandling af Servicedirektivet.
Wednesday 15 November The key debate of the week takes place on Wednesday morning with MEPs debating the Services Directive .
Ordfører Evelyne Gebhardt (PSE, DE) har fremlagt en betænkning, hvori det anbefales at godkende Rådets fælles holdning, som ligger meget tæt op ad EP's anbefalinger fra førstebehandlingen i februar 2006.
Apart from a few details, the Council text reflects the one adopted by Parliament at first reading.
