Vedtagelse af Rådets budget udskudt - andre budgetter vedtaget
MEPs vote to postpone approving the Council of Ministers 2007 budget
Europa-Parlamentet har udskudt vedtagelsen af Rådets budget for 2007.
MEPs voted on Thursday to postpone approving the EU Council of Ministers' spending for 2007.
Søren Bo SØNDERGAARD (GUE/NGL, DK) er ordfører på betænkningen, som sender et stærkt politisk signal til Rådet om at skabe mere åbenhed.
A majority 571 against 41 of MEPs (with 21 abstentions) of Parliament's plenary said Council's administrative spending had in fact become increasingly operational, and that Parliament should therefore have scrutiny over the Council budget.
Europa-Parlamentet vedtog den med 571 stemmer for, 41 imod og 21 hverken for eller imod.
Discharge to the European Commission, which, with the Member States, is responsible for spending the bulk of the EU budget on various policies, was given by 415 votes in favour and 72 against, with 11 abstentions.
Til trods for, at disse kunne skyldes misforståelser, har Rådet "afvist at rydde disse misforståelser af vejen.
They therefore regret that the Council, "unlike other institutions", does not submit an annual activity report to Parliament.
Det kunne man jo have gjort ved at svare på vores spørgsmål."
They therefore urged the Commission to accelerate its simplification exercise.
Alle andre budgetter godkendt
Bulgaria and Romania
Selvom ordføreren anbefalede ikke at give decharge til det Europæiske Police College, valgte MEP'erne at gå udenom ham.
MEPs note that over the period 2007 to 2013, Bulgaria is to receive EUR 6 853 000 in structural funding, and Romania EUR 19 200 000; in addition to the information given in the annual activity report and in the reports on the Structural Funds and the Cohesion Fund, MEPs call for responsible and effective administration of these funds.
Søren Søndergaards andre ordførerposter resulterede således i decharge til EF-Domstolen, Revisionsretten, Regionsudvalget, Den Europæiske Tilsynsførende for Databeskyttelse, Det Europæiske Økonomiske og Sociale Udvalg og Den Europæiske Ombudsmand, som alle modtog decharge i dag.
MEPs call on the Commission, in the light of the last progress report and the setbacks with regard to the fight against corruption, to submit to it a special report on the state of play of the management and control of EU funds in Romania and on the measures taken and the progress made in the fight against corruption covering the period until 15 July 2009.
Parlamentet afviser desuden Rådets påstand om, at en gentlemanaftale skulle være grunden til, at man ikke tidligere har foretaget en kritisk gennemgang af hinandens budgetter.
According to the Court of Auditors, the Netherlands, Portugal, the UK , France and Spain showed inadequacies with the Single Payment Scheme, whereas Greece, Italy Spain, the UK , France and the Netherlands suffered from a number of systemic shortcomings with regard to area-aid eligibility checks.
Kritik fra intern revision
Structural funds
Parlamentets budget godkendt
Approval for EP spending
Europa-Parlamentets politiske autoriteter fik også godkendt sit budget, selvom MEP'erne havde en række kommentarer og anbefalinger.
The European Parliament's political authorities also got the stamp of approval, although MEPs made a number of comments and recommendations.
De noterede sig bl.a. at den frivillige pensionsfond for medlemmer, har et underskud på €30,92 millioner i slutningen af 2007, og Parlamentet mener, at man under ingen omstændigheder skal tage penge fra budgettet til at dække over underskuddet.
Noting that the voluntary pension fund for Members had an actuarial deficit of €30.92 million at the end of 2007, Parliament voted to say that "under no circumstances will Parliament in the prevailing economic situation provide extra money from the budget to cover the fund's deficit".
Tidligere på ugen har Parlamentets bureau (formanden og de 14 vice-formænd) besluttet, at fondens pensionsalder skal hæves, at afskaffe mulighederne for tidlig pension og tage 25 % af den opsparede pension ud på én gang.
Earlier, the same week the Bureau of the Parliament (its President and 14 Vice-Presidents) had confirmed its decision to raise the pension fund's retirement age, scrap the option of going in early retirement on a reduced pension and to end the possibility of taking out 25% of acquired pension rights in a lump sum.
Disse skridt blev taget for at forbedre fondens likviditet og undgå at dække dets underskud med skatteydernes penge.
These measures were taken to improve the fund's liquidity and to avoid covering its actuarial deficit with taxpayers' money.
Vejtransport-pakken vedtaget
MEPs adopt road transport package
Færre tomme lastbiler på vejene i Europa, længere maksimale arbejdstider for buschauffører og skrappere kontrol af transportselskaber: det er de vigtigste elementer i en lovgivningspakke, der blev vedtaget af Europa-Parlamentet i dag efter aftale med Rådet.
Fewer empty lorries travelling across Europe, longer maximum working hours for coach and bus drivers and tougher inspections of transport companies: these are the main elements of a package of legislation adopted today by Parliament following an agreement with Council.
• Tre cabotagekørsler på syv dage tillades efter en international rejse
• Three cabotage operations within seven days will be allowed following an international journey
• Buschauffører kan arbejde i op til tolv dage i træk på en enkelt tur
• Coach drivers can work up to twelve days in a row on a single trip
• Vejtransportsvirksomheder skal opfylde strenge krav for at få ret til at føre virksomhed
• Road haulage firms must meet strict requirements to obtain the right to operate
Færre tomme lastbiler på vejene: cabotage
Fewer empty lorries on the roads: cabotage
Cabotage er transport af varer til en tredjepart på et midlertidigt grundlag, der stammer og ender inden for grænserne af et givet land af en transportvirksomhed i et andet land.
Cabotage is the carriage of goods for a third party, on a temporary basis, that originates and terminates within the boundaries of a given country by a transporter of another country.
I henhold til det ændrede forslag, der blev vedtaget af Europa-Parlamentet, er det tilladt at foretage tre cabotagekørsler i værtslandet inden for syv dage efter en international rejse.
Under the amended draft regulation as adopted by MEPs, three cabotage operations in the host Member State are to be allowed within seven days following an international journey.
Inden for denne periode kan vognmænd foretage de tilladte cabotagekørsler i enhver medlemsstat på den betingelse, at de er begrænset til én cabotagekørsel pr. medlemsstat senest tre dage efter ulastet indrejse i sit område.
Within that period hauliers may carry out the three cabotage operations in any Member State transited on their return journey under the condition that they are limited to one operation per Member State transited, within three days of unladen entry into its territory.
MEP'erne vil have mere liberalisering
MEPs in favour of further liberalisation
Europa-Parlamentet har tidligere taget skridt mod mere liberalisering af cabotage, og man vil reducere antallet af rejser med tomme lastbiler og dermed maksimere fordelene for vognmænd og begrænse miljøbelastningen.
The European Parliament has argued in the past for greater liberalisation of cabotage, above all to reduce the number of journeys made by empty lorries, thereby maximising the benefits for hauliers and limiting the environmental impact.
MEP'er insisterede på, at cabotagekørsel ikke bør være forbudt, så længe en sådan ikke er gennemført på en måde, der skaber en permanent eller kontinuerlig aktivitet i den pågældende medlemsstat.
In the negotiations with Council, MEPs successfully argued that cabotage operations "should not be prohibited as long as they are not carried out in a way that creates a permanent or continuous activity within that Member State".
De nye cabotage-regler træder i kraft seks måneder efter forordningen er offentliggjort i EF-Tidende (Rådet ønskede, at det skulle være to år).
They also insisted that the new cabotage rules must apply six months after the regulation is published in the Official Journal.
Højest 12 dages arbejdstid for buschauffører
Maximum working time for coach and bus drivers restored to 12 days
Et EU-direktiv fra 2006 fastsætter, at buschauffører, som rejser i udlandet, skal have mindst en hviledag hver sjette dag.
Since the application of a 2006 EU directive, coach drivers who travel abroad must take at least one rest day every six days.
Rejsearrangørerne klager over, at det tvinger dem til at ansætte to chauffører til de fleste ture og kræve de ekstra omkostninger af deres kunder.
Tour operators complain that this forces them to employ two drivers for most journeys and to claw back the extra cost from their customers.
Efter en overenskomst indgået med repræsentanter for erhvervslivet i maj sidste år støtter MEP'erne genindførelsen af "12-dages reglen", som bringer buschaufførernes rejsetid op til tolv dage.
Following an accord reached with industry representatives in May last year, MEPs backed the reintroduction of the "twelve day rule", which allows the period in which coach drivers can work on international journeys to be raised to twelve days.
Der vil være begrænsninger: rejsen skal være en enkelt tur, og ikke gå til flere forskellige lande, chauffører skal tage en daglig hviletid og vil blive kompenseret efter 12 dage med tilsvarende længere hvileperioder.
However, there are restrictions: the journey must be a single trip, not several different ones, drivers will have to take daily rest periods and will be compensated after the 12 days with correspondingly longer rest periods.
Bedre rettigheder til bus- og skibspassagerer
Equal passenger rights on all modes of transport
Transportudvalgets to betænkninger om rettigheder for buspassagerer af Gabriela ALBERTINI (PPE-DE, IT) og en om rettigheder for passagerer der rejser til søs af Michel TEYCHENNE (PSE, FR) blev vedtaget med henholdsvis 557 stemmer mod 30 og 587 stemmer mod 8.
MEPs voted in first reading on a report by Gabriele Albertini (EPP-ED, IT) on rights of bus and coach passengers (557 votes in favour, 30 against, 23 abstentions) and a report by Michel Teychenné (PES, FR) on the rights of passengers travelling by sea and inland waterway (587 votes in favour, 8 against, 19 abstentions).
Erstatning for forsinkelser eller aflysninger
Compensation for delay or cancellation
Virksomheder, der transporterer passagerer ad søvejen og indre vandveje, skal give passagererne information samt erstatning, hvis en rejse afbrydes på følgende grundlag:
Maritime transport companies will have to provide passengers with information as well as compensation if a journey is interrupted, as follows:
25 % af billetprisen for en forsinkelse på mellem en og to timer
- 25% of the ticket price for a delay in arrival of between one and two hours;
50 % af billetprisen for en forsinkelse på to timer eller mere
- 50% of the ticket price for a delay in arrival of two hours or more;
100 % af billetprisen, hvis luftfartsselskabet ikke give en anden transporttjeneste under rimelige vilkår, eller oplysninger om alternative transportmuligheder.
- 100% of the ticket price if the carrier does not provide another transport service under reasonable conditions or information about alternative transport.
Buspassagerer, hvor en tur er aflyst eller forsinket mere end to timer (for rejser planlagt til at vare mindst tre timer), vil være berettiget til andre transportydelser.
Bus and coach passengers must be offered alternative transportation if the delay at departure is over two hours.
Hvis dette er umuligt, skal vedkommende gives oplysninger om andre tilgængelige tjenester.
Passengers will be entitled to a compensation of 100% of the ticket price if they don't accept the proposed alternative.
Sker dette ikke, skal virksomhederne betale en erstatning på den fulde billetpris
For delays in arrival of over two hours, passengers will have the right to compensation amounting to 50% of the ticket price if the delay is caused by the driver's negligence or a technical fault of the vehicle.
Hvis der ikke er tilbudt andre transportformer, skal selskabet betale en kompensation på 150 % af billetprisen.
If alternative transportation is not provided, the bus or coach company would have to pay compensation of 150% of the ticket price.
For de passagerer, der vælger at modtage den alternative transport, skal selskabet stadig betale en kompensation på 50 % af billetprisen.
For passengers who choose to accept the alternative services offered, MEPs insisted that companies should still have to pay compensation of 50% of the ticket price.
Force majeure
Force majeure
Parlamentet var enige om at tage hensyn til den særlige karakter af vandtransport ved at definere tilfælde af force majeure, hvor kompensationen regler ikke er gældende: ekstrem tidevandsenergi, stærk vind, meget høje bølger og isdannelse.
MEPs agreed to take account of the specific nature of water transport, defining cases of force majeure where the compensation rules would not apply: extreme tidal conditions, strong winds, significant wave heights and formation of ice, but also nationalisation, government sanction, blockage, embargo, labour disputes, strikes, lockout or electricity cuts.
Rettigheder for handicappede eller bevægelseshæmmede
Rights of people with disabilities or reduced mobility
Mennesker med nedsat mobilitet kan ikke nægtes retten til bord på et skib, bus, undtagen hvis deres sikkerhed ville blive bragt i fare.
People with reduced mobility may not be refused the right to board a ship, bus or coach except where their safety would be endangered.
MEP'erne har sikret, at handicap af en passager ikke kan bruges som begrundelse for at nægte dem retten til bord.
MEPs voted to ensure that the disability of a passenger cannot be used as a reason for denying them the right to board.
Men særlige foranstaltninger til at sikre passagerernes rettigheder på disse tjenester skal tages af de enkelte medlemsstater.
The staff of a maritime transport company must receive adequate information in order to be able to provide assistance.
Rovsing: bedre vilkår til handicappede
Bus and coach operators would have to provide specific training to their personnel enabling them to properly assist disabled people.
Christian ROVSING (PPE-DE, DK) mente, at Europa lider under manglende rettigheder til handicappede.
MEPs added a clause requiring companies to provide passengers with written confirmation of the assistance that will be provided.
"Hvis man prøver at foretage en vurdering af, hvorledes befolkningen opfatter et handicap, når man skal holde ferie, så vil man i dag opleve, at handicappede søger til USA, fordi der er en meget bedre lovgivning, meget bedre regler, og derfor bliver de langt bedre behandlet i USA.
Clauses obliging transport companies to accommodate assistance dogs on board passenger ships, buses and coaches were also included in the legislation, thanks to Parliament's amendments.
Det er ikke Europa, de søger til, vore egne folk.
Urban and suburban routes exempted
Og det synes jeg er et klart tegn på, at det, som vi arbejder med her, er umådeligt vigtigt på en lang række punkter - også i rent turistmæssig henseende."
However, MEPs insist that special measures to guarantee passengers' rights on these services must be taken by individual Member States.
Jensen-forslag vedtaget
"Intelligent Transport Systems": using technology to make EU roads safer
Intelligente Transportsystemer (ITS) kan gøre trafikken mærkbart lettere og mindske antallet af uheld.
Parliament today backed plans for the implementation of "Intelligent Transport Systems" in the EU road transport sector but insisted on safety issues for vulnerable road users and guarantees for data privacy protection.
Betænkningen, hvis overordnede formål er at etablere et rammeværk for at accelerere og koordinere indføringen og brugen af ITS, blev vedtaget med 529 stemmer for, 42 mod og 16 hverken for eller imod.
Compatibility with other transport modes also needs to be ensured, MEPs underlined.
Anne E. JENSEN (ALDE, DK) er ordfører på betænkningen, der udstikker rammerne for anvendelsen af ITS på europæisk plan.
MEPs approved with amendments the draft directive on the application of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) in road transport and interfaces with other transport modes when they adopted the first-reading report by Anne Jensen (ALDE, DK) by 529 votes to 42 with 16 abstentions.
Det overordnede formål er at etablere et rammeværk for at accelerere og koordinere indføringen og brugen af ITS, herunder sammenføring med andre transportformer for at støtte transport, der er sikrere og mere effektiv samt tager mere hensyn til miljøet.
Intelligent Transport Systems use information and communication technologies to make transport safer and cleaner and to reduce traffic congestion.
Forud for afstemningen hæftede Anne E. Jensen sig ved, at det skulle være til gavn for bilisterne, idet de ikke skulle gøres dummere, ligesom det ikke skal bruges til overvågning: "dertil kommer det meget vigtige spørgsmål om datasikkerhed.
Examples of ITS applications include electronic tolling systems on motorways, GPS and traffic supervision systems and warning systems such as the automatic "e-call" which alerts emergency services if the driver is unconscious after an accident.
Vi ønsker ikke et overvågningssamfund, og spørgsmålet om databeskyttelse og individets rettigheder skal tænkes ind i standarderne fra starten."
ITS can be applied in every transport mode (road, rail, air, water), in both passenger and freight transport.
Konkrete eksempler på ITS kan være:
However, they have called on the Commission to make a number of improvements to their proposals:
E-call der giver signal til alarmcentralen, hvis der er sket en ulykke, hvorefter centralen kan ringe op til en mobil der er tilknyttet bilen.
to enhance compatibility between ITS systems and ensuring "backward compatibility" with previous applications and systems;
Fælles for alle eksemplerne er det, at de også skal kunne anvendes, når man er på ferie eller når lastvognschaufføren krydser grænser.
to c larify liability issues by involving experts and stakeholders.
Tilsynsmyndigheder skal være uafhængige
Credit Rating Agencies: partially responsible for the current financial crisis say MEPs
Skrappe regler, der skal forbedre gennemsigtigheden og uafhængigheden af europæiske kreditvurderingsbureauer, blev støttet af Europa-Parlamentet ved plenarsamlingen torsdag.
Strict rules to improve transparency and independence of European credit rating were endorsed by the European Parliament on Thursday in Strasbourg when MEPs adopted a legislative report with 569 votes in favour, 47 against and 4 abstentions.
Teksten blev vedtaget med 569 stemmer for, 47 imod og 4 hverken for eller imod.
The approved regulation sets up an obligation for all CRAs wishing to operate in the EU to register and comply with a set of rules.
Forordningens centrale elementer er:
The main objectives of the regulation are:
At sikre, at kreditvurderingsbureauer ikke undergår interessekonflikter
To ensure that credit rating agencies avoid conflicts of interest;
Forbedre gennemsigtigheden ved at fremsætte offentlighedskrav
To increase transparency by setting disclosure obligations;
A sikre en effektiv registrerende og overvågning på EU-niveau
To ensure an efficient registration and supervision framework at EU level;
At forbedre kvaliteten af vurderingerne
To improve the quality of the methodologies and the quality of ratings.
Kreditvurderingsbureauernes opgave er at afgive uvildige udtalelser om virksomheders og regeringers økonomiske situation.
Avoiding existing or potential conflict of interest between the agency issuing the rating and the rated organisation is a key aim of the legislation.
Således skal de afdække sandsynligheden for misligholdelse eller forventede tab ved en lang række finansielle instrumenter.
Long lasting relationships with the same rated entities may compromise independence of analysts those in charge of approving credit ratings.
Disse "kreditvurderinger" anvendes af investorer, låntagere, udstedere og regeringer og spiller således en vigtig rolle på de finansielle markeder.
Therefore, the agreed text proposes that those analysts and persons approving credit ratings should be subject to a rotation mechanism.
Kommissionens forslag lægger op til at regulere alle vurderinger, der bruges af EU's finansielle institutioner.
At Parliament's representatives' request, the rotation will take place on an individual basis rather than changing the entire team of the company.
Således vil der blive indført en rotationsmekanisme for at undgå interessekonflikter hos analytikerne.
The compromise reached provides for a greater role for the Committee of European Securities Regulators (CESR), which will be in charge of registering CRAs' according to the new rules.
