natgillin/translations-raw huggingface dataset:
De fossile energibæreres andel af EU's samlede interne energiforbrug lå i 2004 på 79 %, hvoraf olie tegnede sig for den største andel (37,2 %) efterfulgt af gas (23,9 %) og kul (17,9 %).
In the same breath, the committee calls on Member States to commit themselves "to reduce smoking among youth by at least 50% by 2025."
Kul spiller en dominerende rolle i forbindelse med elproduktion, mens olie dominerer inden for transportsektoren.
Smoking in the European Parliament
Naturgas anvendes derimod i næsten samme omfang til elproduktion og varmeproduktion.
Directing their attention to their own workplace, MEPs in the committee call for Parliament - "in the light of its duty to set an example" - to adopt a smoking ban "with no exemptions" in all areas of the House.
På grund af denne fremtrædende rolle og manglen på lige så billige og effektive alternativer, tyder alle prognoser på, at de fossile energibærere også i 2020 og derefter vil udgøre en central bestanddel af EU's energimix.
The report also condemns the disregard shown by some Members and staff of the European Parliament for the restrictions on smoking in the European Parliament, e.g. by smoking in staircases or in the open Members' bar in Strasbourg.

Mindre CO2 fra biler
Cap cars' CO2 emissions at 120g/km, says Environment Committee
Omkring 19 % af EU's udledning af CO2 kommer fra passagerbiler og lette erhvervskøretøjer.
About 19% of the EU's CO2 emissions come from passenger cars and light commercial vehicles.
Bilbranchens frivillige ordning i forhold til at skære ned på udledningerne har vist sig ikke at være så effektiv som forventet.
The vote takes place on Wednesday.
Miljøudvalget ønsker i en betænkning, Parlamentet skal stemme om i Strasbourg, at personbiler fra 2012 maksimalt må udlede 120g CO2 /km.
Even though "the technology is there to make a significant difference in a short period of time", said rapporteur Chris DAVIES (ALDE, UK) before the vote in the committee, "industry has stalled in reducing CO2 emissions".
På trods af, at teknologien til at nedsætte udledningerne af CO2 faktisk vil kunne gøre en stor forskel inden for et kort tidsrum, noterede ordføreren Chris Davies (ALDE, UK) forud for afstemningen, at industrien er gået i stå i forhold til at reducere CO2- udledningen
Welcoming the Commission's plan to propose binding legislation in this field, which MEPs see as "necessary [...] to help the EU meet its target of reducing emissions by at least 20% by 2020 compared to 1990 levels", the committee proposes that binding annual emissions targets be set with effect from 1 January 2009.
I initiativbetænkningen udtrykker medlemmerne af udvalget tilfredshed med EU-Kommissionens plan om at foreslå bindende lovgivning på området, hvilket de ser som nødvendigt for at EU kan nå målet om at nedsætte udledningerne af CO2 med mindst 20 % i 2020 sammenlignet med niveauet i 1990.
He said: " The European Parliament has to choose whether to make the gesture of sending a strong but unrealistic message to the Council or whether to make proposals which can command broad support and are likely to reflect the final outcome of negotiations.
I lighed med Kommissionen insisterer MEP'erne på at sikre, at de gennemsnitlige udledninger fra alle køretøjer, der markedsføres i EU fra 1.januar 2012, ikke overstiger 120 g CO2/km.
Aligning themselves with the Commission, MEPs in the committee stress the need to ensure that average emissions from all passenger cars placed on the EU market from 1 January 2012 do not exceed 120g CO2/km.
Betænkningen understreger, at fra 2020 må disse udledninger ikke overstige 95g CO2/km.
As of 2020, average emissions should not exceed 95g CO2/km.
De langsigtede mål skal lægges fast senest i 2016 - disse målsætninger kan muligvis kræve yderligere reduceringer til 70g CO2/km eller mindre fra 2025.
Long-term targets should be determined by no later than 2016, and "will possibly require further emissions reductions to 70g CO2/km or less by 2025".
Disse bøder kan dog modregnes i form af kreditter for biler fra samme fabrikant, der udleder mindre CO2 end grænseværdierne.
To that end, they also propose that each manufacturer should have the right "to exclude 500 identified vehicles annually from inclusion in the data used to determine average emissions".
Ifølge miljøorganisationen NOAH udleder en gennemsnitlig bil i EU 163 gram CO 2 pr kilometer.
Such penalties "may be offset by redeemable credits awarded to newly-registered passenger cars" (from the same manufacturer), with emissions below the limit values.
I Danmark er salget af biler, der udleder mindre CO2 steget som følge af omlægningerne af registreringsafgifterne.
Information on vehicle emission performance should be made available to the public.

Reformtraktat i hus?
Praise for Turkey's renewed commitment to reform, but concerns remain
Tirsdag formiddag kommer den portugisiske statsminister, José Socrates til Parlamentet for at diskutere resultaterne af det uformelle topmøde den 18.-19. oktober i Lissabon.
The Foreign Affairs Committee welcomes the recent elections in Turkey, especially the new government's renewed commitment to reforms.
Under forrige samling i Bruxelles den 10. oktober diskuterede medlemmerne den kommende reformtraktat.
MEPs in the committee also ask the Commission to report specifically on the implementation and effectiveness of the financial support instrument to the Turkish Cypriot community.
MEP'erne var under debatten onsdag for de flestes vedkommende optimistiske i forhold til, at det kommende uformelle topmøde den 18.- 19. oktober i Lissabon nok skulle ende i en aftale om en ny traktat.
The Commission and the Council will make a statement on EU-Turkey relations to Parliament's plenary in Strasbourg on Wednesday, 24 October, to be followed by a debate with MEPs.
En del af dem kritiserede dog, at forhandlingerne om traktaten har været for lukkede for offentligheden, og at det færdige resultat er sværere at læse for borgerne end den foreslåede forfatningstraktat.
The resolution from the Foreign Affairs Committee will be put to the vote during the same session, in advance of the Commission's annual progress report on Turkey's accession, which is due to be published on 7 November.

EU budgettet 2008: Flere penge til Galileo, til Kosovo og de palæstinensiske områder
Budget 2008: huge increase for Galileo, extra money for Kosovo and Palestine
En af Europa-Parlamentets vigtigste opgaver er at være med til at vedtage budgettet.
The Budgets Committee will put forward a report on its first-reading of the 2008 draft budget.
Parlamentet skal stemme om budgettet under samlingen i Strasbourg.
MEPs in the committee wish to reduce the amount allocated in the budget to the Common Foreign and Security Policy and to use the flexibility instrument to fund the EU's external policy.
Budgetudvalget ønsker blandt at opprioritere støtten til satellit systemet Galileo og Det Europæiske Institut for teknologi (EIT) samt at styrke EU's indsats i Kosovo og de palæstinensiske områder.
Funding for Galileo and the European Institute of Technology is sharply increased.
Rådet anbefaler at reducere det samlede budget med 717 millioner € og ønsker en del budgetmæssige omstruktureringer, der blandt betyder, at udgifterne til EU's eksterne politik skal opprioriteres.
MEPs in the committee want the overall amount of payment appropriations to be higher than in the Commission's preliminary draft budget (0.97%) and the Council's draft budget, while not exceeding 0.99% of the EU's gross national income.
Derudover var der flertal blandt udvalgsmedlemmerne for at opprioritere en række nøgleområder.
The project could fail for good unless sufficient funding is provided.
MEP'er ønsker at bruge flere penge på Galileo satellitsystemet og Det Europæiske Institut for Innovation og Teknologi (EIT) samt styrke EU's indsats i Kosovo og de palæstinensiske områder.
The funding level proposed by the Council in its first reading (€151m in commitments), is regarded as utterly inadequate by both MEPs and the Commission (which in September put forward a new funding plan).
Vil Galileo komme i omdrejninger igen?
EIT to follow model of EU agencies
I juni vedtog MEP'erne en plan for finansieringen af Galileo, hvor de insisterede på, at Galileo-programmet udelukkende skulle finansieres af EU-budgettet.
The same applies to the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT): the Budgets Committee proposes a figure of €2.9m (in commitments and payments), for the funding of the EIT board and the creation of a new budget line for Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs).
Hvis forslaget bliver vedtaget, betyder det et samlet budget til Galileo på 890 millioner € i forpligtelser og 400 millioner € i betalinger i 2008.
To fund the EIT and Galileo, MEPs in the committee are calling for a review of the multiannual financial framework.
(F orpligtelserne er de udgifter, som EU forpligter sig til i et givent år, men som først bliver udbetalt senere.
However, in case no deal can be reached with Council on this point, MEPs in the committee propose an amendment transferring this amount to the 7th research framework programme, so that the amount earmarked for funding Galileo does not disappear from the budget.
Betalingerne er de penge, EU må regne med rent faktisk at udbetale det pågældende år.)
External relations: the EU on the world stage
MEP'erne mener, at dette er nødvendigt for at kunne færdiggøre projektet til tiden.
Parliament has said many times that the funding available for the EU's action outside its borders for the period 2007-2013 is inadequate.
Både MEP'erne og Kommissionen er enige om, at det udkast, som Rådet blev enige om i deres førstebehandling (151 mio. euro i forpligtelser), ikke er tilstrækkeligt.
The Budgets Committee is proposing to reduce by 20% the funds allocated to the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) in the budget and to use the €40 million thereby released to finance other objectives in Category 4 ("The EU as a global partner"), which the committee sees as seriously underfunded.
Da der skal komme en aftale med Rådet i stand, ligger der en hård kamp forude.
To fund aid to Kosovo and Palestine, MEPs suggest drawing on €87m via the flexibility instrument.
Der er behov for konsensus mellem de to institutioner, hvis udgiftsloftet, som er sat af de finansielle perspektiver for 2007-2013, bliver overskredet.
Of this figure, €40m would be added to funds already envisaged for the missions to Kosovo and Palestine (to be divided equally between these two objectives).
Det Europæiske Institut for Innovation og Teknologi
The flexibility instrument could also be used to fund unforeseen expenditure on the CFSP.
Kommissionen forslog tilbage i 2005 at oprette Det Europæiske Institut for Innovation og Teknologi for at fremme forskning og innovation i EU.
Ultimately, the CFSP would still be allocated €200m, as originally planned, since the CFSP's €40m, which could be found via the flexibility instrument, is exactly the same as the cut of 20% proposed by MEPs in the committee.
Udgifterne blev estimeret til at ligge i omegnen af 2,4 milliarder € for perioden 2008 - 2013, og det blev besluttet at både EU samt offentlige og private aktører skulle stå for finansieringen af instituttet.
A discussion on the level of funding of Category 4 and other policies would seem to be needed between Parliament and Council, inter alia on these CFSP-related matters.
Parlamentet støtter Kommissionens forslag om at oprette EIT.
Agencies: a boost for Frontex
Budgetudvalget forslår at bruge 2,9 millioner € på EIT bestyrelsen og en ny budgetstrategi for "viden og innovationssamfundene", der vil udgøre hjørnestenen i det nye EU institut.
The Budgets Committee does not support the expenditure cuts on the agencies desired by the Council.
Kosovo og de palæstinensiske områder
MEPs believe the agencies have fully justified their budget needs, as demanded by the EP.
Både Kommissionen og Rådet har forslået at øge fondene til EU-operationer i Kosovo og de palæstinensiske områder.
The one exception is Frontex, the agency for the EU's external frontiers, whose budget has virtually doubled, with €30m extra for operational costs.
Men de er uenige om, hvordan denne nye prioritering skal finansieres.
The figure earmarked for this agency thus rises to €70m in total.
Parlamentets Budgetudvalg bakker op om en øget indsats i disse regioner, men ønsker en mere detaljeret strategi for hvordan pengene skal bruges.
This decision is in line with Parliament's political priorities in the area of "freedom, security and justice" but MEPs in the committee remain critical of the results achieved by Frontex and the committee is therefore calling for 30% of its administrative costs to be placed in reserve.
Eftersom der ikke er tilstrækkeligt med midler i denne del af den fælles udenrigspolitik, forslår udvalget, at man benytter "fleksibilitetsinstrumentet" som et supplement til finansieringen.
This funding would only be released if the head of the agency can provide Parliament with an explanation of the agency's known failures and above all a plan to improve its operational effectiveness.

Et røgfrit Europa ?
How can tax systems help improve economic performance?
Det er ikke kun i Danmark, at røgfrit miljø er et stort diskussionsemne.
MEPs are to debate a report on how taxation and customs policies can support the aim of making the European economy more competitive.
Parlamentets Miljøudvalg ønsker i en initiativbetænkning en række omfattende foranstaltninger for at begrænse rygning på offentlige steder og gøre det sværere for mindreårige at købe cigaretter.
Among other things, the report supports fiscal incentives for investment in R&amp;D and environmental projects, healthy tax competition, lower rates of VAT for labour intensive services and a common consolidated corporate tax base.
I en betænkning, som Karl-Heinz Florenz (PPE-DE, DE) har været ordfører for, påpeger Udvalget, at 650000 mennesker hvert år dør af rygning, herunder 80000 af passiv rygning, med børn og ufødte børn som særligt udsatte grupper.
The report, from the Economic and Monetary Affairs Committee, sets out ideas on the contribution of taxation policy to the Lisbon Strategy, the EU’s plan for improving competitiveness, boosting growth and creating more jobs.
70 % af europæerne er ikke-rygere, 86 % går ind for et forbud mod rygning på arbejdspladsen, 84% går ind for forbud på andre offentlige steder, 61% ønsker forbud på barer, og 77 % i restauranter.
MEPs in the committee argue that fiscal incentives to businesses are “the main instrument for developing and increasing the number of jobs, but also for increasing R&D investment and environmentally friendly technologies.”
MEP'erne hilser derfor Kommissionens grønbog "Mod et Europa uden tobaksrøg: politiske valgmuligheder på EU-plan" velkommen, men ser det kun som et udgangspunkt.
They point out that “the overall taxation level in Europe remains higher in comparison to that of the other OECD countries,” and argue for corporate tax arrangements which are favourable to companies, particularly small businesses.
Miljøudvalget mener, at direktivet om tobaksprodukter skal ændres, så der kommer et øjeblikkeligt forbud mod alle afhængighedsfremmende tilsætningsstoffer.
On excise duties, MEPs in the committee argue for a new approach, replacing minimum rates with a generic code of conduct to encourage convergence of rates.
Betænkningen lægger også op til, at direktivet skal indeholde en ny samling af obligatoriske større og barske billedadvarsler på alle tobaksvarer, der sælges i EU og krav om, at sådanne advarsler skal angives på begge sider af tobakspakker.
The report reiterates Parliament’s support for a common consolidated corporate tax base, which would not affect Member States’ right to set whatever rate of corporation tax they wished.
Udvalget mener også, at advarslerne skal indeholde tydelige kontaktoplysninger med henblik på at hjælpe rygerne med at holde op.
The report was adopted with 25 votes in favour, 8 against and 7 abstentions in the Economics Committee – amendments are likely to be tabled at the plenary session to many of its key points.

Forslag om at fremstille lovlig medicin i stedet for ulovlig opium i Afghanistan
Call to produce legal analgesics instead of illicit opium in Afghanistan
Parlamentets Udenrigsudvalg opfordrer Rådet til at foreslå en plan til den afghanske regering, som skal indeholde muligheden for et pilotprojekt, hvor dele af den ulovlige produktion af opium skal gøres lovlig til fremstilling af opiumbaserede smertestillende midler.
The EP Foreign Affairs Committee is urging the Council to put forward a plan to the Afghan government which would include the possibility of a pilot project to turn part of the illicit poppy crop into legal opium-based analgesics.
I initiativbetænkningen af Marco Cappato (ALDE, IT), som blev vedtaget i udvalget den 12. september 2007 med 33 stemmer for, 8 imod og 23 der undlod, noterer udvalget sig, at "oprørere, krigsherrer, Taliban og terroristgrupper har handel med ulovlige narkotiske midler som deres vigtigste indtægtskilde", hvilket er med til at sætte den politiske stabilitet og den økonomiske udvikling på spil.
In an own-initiative report drafted by Marco CAPPATO (ALDE, IT), and adopted on 12 September by 33 votes in favour to 8 against with 23 abstentions, the committee notes that "insurgents, warlords, the Taliban and terrorist groups are obtaining their major source of funding through trade in illicit narcotics", thereby jeopardising the political stability and economic development of Afghanistan.
FN's kontor for narkotika vurderer, at Afghanistan producer 93 % af verdensmarkedet for opiater.
MEPs in the committee want the Council to look at "the possibility of pilot projects for small-scale conversion of parts of the current illicit poppy cultivation into fields for the production of legal opium-based analgesics".

Debat om Tyrkiets optagelse
EU will need conventional energy sources for sometime yet, says Industry Committee
Onsdag formiddag skal Parlamentet diskutere Tyrkiets fremskidt mod optagelse med Kommissionen og Rådet.
On current trends, the EU will rely on imports to meet 65% of its energy needs by 2030.
Udenrigsudvalget har forinden udformet et forslag til beslutning, som blev vedtaget uden modstand.
Yet gas and oil supplies are dogged by uncertainty due to geopolitical risks and growing demand elsewhere.
Udvalget hilser de nyligt overståede valg i Tyrkiet velkommen, særligt regeringens fornyede tilsagn til reformer.
The need to produce and use energy more safely, efficiently and sustainably across the Union is underlined in an own-initiative report on "conventional energy sources" proposed by the EP Industry Committee.
Beslutningsforslaget, som Ria Oomen-Ruijten (PPE-DE, NL) har været ordfører for, fordømmer ligeledes mordene på Hrant Dink, armensk forfatter og redaktør, som blev myrdet i januar 2007 og den katolske præst Andrea Santoro, der blev myrdet i februar 2006.
The report also notes that Finland, France, Bulgaria, Romania, Slovakia, Lithuania (with the collaboration of Latvia and Estonia), the United Kingdom , Poland and the Czech Republic are building new nuclear power plants, or are planning to build them or are investigating such a possibility.
MEP'erne understreger det akutte behov for effektivt at bekæmpe alle former for vold og ekstremisme.
The committee nonetheless acknowledged that CCS technology is linked to losses of efficiency in power stations and called for research to address the issue.
Udvalget påpeger også, at der er behov for en yderligere indsats for at sikre civil kontrol med militæret.
The EQF aims to ease cross-border mobility for workers and learners, and help meet labour market needs, by using a common language to describe qualifications.
I forhold til det kurdiske spørgsmål, fordømmer MEP'erne de voldelige handlinger fra PKK og opfordrer regeringen til komme med politiske initiativer der kan sikre en varig løsning på spørgsmålet.
By 2012, all new qualification certificates, diplomas and "Europass" attestation documents issued by the competent authorities "should contain a clear reference to an EQF's reference level, says the report, by Mario MANTOVANI (EPP-ED, IT).
MEP'erne vil stemme om beslutningsforslaget I Strasbourg.
MEPs will meet African MPs in Lisbon prior to the Summit.
