Miljøsyndere skal kunne komme i fængsel
Better social and environmental conditions needed when EU vessels are scrapped on Asia's shores
Der skal være samme type straf for alvorlige overtrædelser af miljøbeskyttelsen, uanset hvilket medlemsland forbrydelsen er begået i.
Acting on environmentally damaging practices and on dangerous working conditions under which cargo ships are dismantled, primarily in Bangladesh, India and Pakistan, is the key point of the report.
Parlamentet skal tirsdag stemme om et forslag til fælles rammer for straf af miljøsyndere.
Up to 600 large cargo ships of over 2,000 dead weight tons (dwt) are dismantled worldwide.
Forslaget sikrer en definition af, hvilke overtrædelser, der skal dømmes efter straffeloven.
Even with such lists established, there would still be a lack of OECD ship dismantling facilities.
Det er essensen i et forslag til et nyt direktiv, der skal gøre en række miljøovertrædelser strafbare i alle medlemslande.
MEPs in the committee welcome the proposal to establish a fund for ship dismantling.
Godkender Parlamentet aftalen, kan arbejdet med den nye lovgivning blive gjort færdig i førstebehandlingen.
The Parliament has reached a first reading agreement with the Council on the proposed legislation which will be voted on in Strasbourg.
Hvis der i et land kun er civilretlige sanktioner (f.eks.bødestraf) for en bestemt type miljøforseelse, vil regeringerne med de nye regler i stedet skulle straffe med 'effektive, proportionale og afskrækkende strafferetlige sanktioner.'
In other words, if in an EU country one of the crimes listed in the report is currently subjected only to civil sanctions (e.g. a fine), the entry into force of this legislation would oblige national government to apply "effective, proportionate and dissuasive" criminal penalties to that specific case.
Det skal blandt andet være strafbart at udlede farlige materialer til eller stråling i luften til jorden eller vandet, at smide affald ulovligt, hvis dette kan medfører dødsfald eller skade mennesker betydeligt.
The proposed text lists the emission of radiation into air, soil or water, the disposal of waste, the production, storage and transport of nuclear materials, among the offences that would be sanctioned by the criminal code, when likely to seriously injure people or the environment.
På listen over forseelser, som skal dømmes efter straffeloven. er også handlen med beskyttede vilde dyr og plantearter, beskadigelsen af fredede naturområder eller handel med stoffer, der nedbryder ozonlaget.
MEPs in the committee also back the inclusion of the possession, killing or possession of protected fauna and flora species, the deterioration of a habitat within a protected site, and the manufacture and distribution of ozone-depleting substances.
EF-Domstolens afgørelse fra oktober 2007
Court's ruling of October 2007
I kompromispakken foreslår Parlamentet også ændringer, der skal sikre, at direktivet kommer til at være i tråd med en afgørelse fra EF-Domstolen fra oktober 2007.
The Parliament further amended the original Commission proposal to make the directive consistent with a decision of the European Court of Justice (ECJ) of October 2007.
Kommissionen havde oprindeligt foreslået en ramme for fælles strafudmåling til miljøsynderne, men dommen fra oktober 2007 (C-440/05) fastlagde, at EU kun har kompetence til at fastsætte, om en handling skal opfattes som kriminel eller ej - og dermed om handlingen skal dømmes efter straffeloven.
According to the ECJ, the EU has competence to adopt criminal measures only when there's a "justifiable need", e.g. in the common transport and environment policies.
Ønsker medlemslandene alligevel at fastsætte fælles strafudmåling, skal det ske inden for rammerne af det strafferetlige samarbejde.
Nevertheless, the Court ruled that the EU cannot specify the type and level of the criminal sanctions.
Derfor har MEP'erne valgt at slette Kommissionens oprindelige forslag om den konkrete strafudmåling.
Therefore, MEPs propose to delete the article of the Commission text providing the extension and duration of the proposed sanctions.

Første overslag over Parlamentets budget for 2009
MEPs to vote on a resolution on Myanmar and China following tragedies
MEP'erne diskuterer mandag overslaget for parlamentets budget for 2009.
The House will debate the situation in Burma/Myanmar and China following the tragedies that have recently beset these countries.
Det er Budgetudvalgets udspil efter de første forhandlinger med Parlamentets præsidium.
The President of the European Parliament, Hans-Gert Pöttering, has expressed his deep sympathy with all those affected by the serious earthquake in China.
I et år, hvor en mulig gennemførelse af Lissabonstraktaten kan føre til væsentlige ændringer og mere arbejde i Parlamentet, har spørgsmålet om personale vejet tungt i de forberedende møder.
They welcomed some limited improvement that has been made recently in this respect, but stressed that more needs to be done to ensure a free access to the affected area to the international humanitarian experts, including the expeditious delivery of visa and travel permits.
MEP'erne er tilfredse med, at Præsidiet reagerede på den bekymring, der kom til udtryk ved at integrere de foreslåede 65 nye stillinger i overslagene (svarende til 2.020.023 euro for 2009).
They recalled that the EU Humanitarian Aid is entirely neutral, impartial and independent, in accordance with the EU Consensus on Humanitarian Aid.
Parlamentsassistenterne MEP'erne minder om, hvor vigtigt der er at få løst spørgsmålet om ansættelsesvilkårene for medlemmernes assistenter og glæder sig over, at der er skabt kontakter til medlemsstaterne, Rådet og de nuværende og kommende formandskaber i forbindelse med den nye ordning for parlamentsassistenter.
The Council expressed its deepest condolences to the people of China for the massive loss of life and devastation caused by the earthquake which struck the country.

Mobil-tv og mobilt bredbånd skal dække bredt
EU consumer policy strategy
I fremtiden skal de systemer, som skal levere mobile satellitsystemer til f.eks. mobil-tv eller mobilt bredbånd udvælges på EU-niveau.
The report considers that the needs of consumer protection can be satisfied by legislation only if it is better, simpler and prepared with the involvement of all the competent Commission Directorates-General.
I februar 2007 vedtog Europa-Kommissionen en beslutning om, at medlemsstaterne skulle stille frekvensbåndene inden for 2 Ghz-området til rådighed til en harmoniseret strategi for de mobile satellitssystemer (MSS).
The committee takes the view that this requires that citizens feel equally safe shopping via the internet or at the local corner shop, and that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) can rely on the same simple rules throughout the internal market.
I beslutningen blev det fastslået, at der skulle være en harmoniseret strategi for MSS, men det blev ikke fastsat, hvordan operatørerne af EU’s MSS skulle udvælges og autoriseres.
The Consumer Protection Committee calls on the Commission to consider ways of improving protection for SMEs, in particular by means of the Small Business Act.
Det er denne procedure, som Parlamentet og Rådet nu skal fastsætte.
European Consumer Ombudsman?
Parlamentet har i sin behandling, hvor Fiona HALL (ALDE, UK) var ordfører, lagt vægt på, at de systemer der vælges, skal dække mindst 60 % af EU's overflade når systemerne begynder at virke, og at det efter 7 år skal dække mindst 50 % af befolkningen og mindst 60 % af hvert enkelt medlemslands områder.
The committee calls on the Commission to explore the merits of establishing a special European Consumer Ombudsman in the European Ombudsman's office.
Hvis der er flere ansøgere end der er frekvenser ledige, vil operatørerne blive udvalgt efter kriterier, hvor en bred dækning vejer tungest.
The report notes that a number of Member States have consumer ombudsmen in several sectors, helping consumers to deal with economic operators; believes this approach could be examined by the Commission on a country-by-country basis.

Pas på annoncehajerne
'European City Guides')
I en mundtlig forespørgsel ønsker MEP'erne at vide, hvad medlemslandene har tænkt sig at gøre for at undgå denne svindel.
Over the past years, a number of so-called 'Directory companies' (for instance 'European City Guides') have been operating cross-border in several EU Member States applying misleading and fraudulent business practices.
I forespørgslen henviser MEP'erne til, at de i Udvalget for Indre Marked og Forbrugerbeskyttelse har modtaget talrige klager fra borgere og virksomheder over vejvisere, der brugere vildledende metoder for at sælge deres annoncer.
The consequence of such scams is usually the unwanted 'registration' of professionals and small companies in rogue 'directories' for several years, at a cost of up to € 1000 per year.
I de seneste år har fænomenet desuden spredt sig over grænserne, da en række af disse selskaber (F.eks.
These amounts are then rigorously collected through specialised agencies, leaving the victims with a substantial financial loss and possibly also legal costs.
European City Guides) også har forsøgt at operere i andre EU-lande.
When spotted and closed down, these companies have frequently managed to relocate and take up their fraudulent practices as before.
Ofte lykkes det for annoncefirmaerne at flytte og fortsætte virksomheden andre steder fra.
Are Member States aware of the magnitude of this problem for the European business community, and particularly for SMEs?

Landbrugsudvalget vil forlænge tobaksstøtten
MEPs urge faster pace of reform in Turkey
MEP'erne ønsker i betænkningen af Sergio BERLATO (UEN, IT) at forlænge støtteordningerne til tobaksproducenterne, samtidig med at bidraget til den europæiske tobaksfond skal sættes op.
"Transform priorities and time-lines into reform plans," the Foreign Affairs Committee urged Turkey, in its latest progress report.
I landbrugsspørgsmål har Parlamentet kun høringsret.
The committee welcomes several recent legislative activities of Turkey, while insisting that the speed of reforms must pick up.
I betænkningen ønsker Landbrugsudvalget at forlænge landbrugsstøtten til de europæiske tobaksproducenter indtil 2013, en ordning der ellers forventes at skulle stoppe i 2010.
The report, drawn up by Ria Oomen-Ruijten (EPP-ED, NL), "welcomes the commitment of Prime Minister Erdogan that 2008 is going to be the year of reforms" and "urges the Turkish government to fulfil its promises" by implementing them.
Samtidig ønsker de, at støtten til Fællesskabsfonden for Tobak skal forlænges til 2012, og at det skal være 6 % og ikke 5 % af tobaksstøtten, der kommer til at gå til fonden.
While the committee stresses that "modernisation is first and foremost in Turkey's own interest," it also notes that "further delays will seriously affect the pace of negotiations."
Endvidere kan der iværksættes foranstaltninger med henblik på at omlægge produktionen af råtobak til andre afgrøder eller jobskabende aktiviteter.
The report also "considers the amendment on Article 301 of the Penal Code sent by the government to the parliament as merely a first step towards a fundamental reform of this article as well as other articles" and "urges the government and the parliament to carry out this reform without delay so that none of these articles can be used for arbitrary restriction of freedom of expression."
EU er verdens største importør af råtobak og den femtestørste producent - langt efter Kina, Brasilien og Indien og USA.
It also calls for "'real possibilities to learn Kurdish within the public and private schooling system" and its use in broadcasting, public life and public services.
De tobaksproducerende lande i EU er Grækenland, Italien, Belgien, Tyskland, Spanien, Frankrig, Portugal, Polen og Bulgarien.
In light of the drafting of a new constitution, the committee stresses that it should "ensure gender equality, avoid the use of vague criteria such as general morality, refrain from perceiving women primarily as family or community members and reaffirm women's human rights."

EU skal gå mere konkret til værks i havstrategi
Animal health strategy should be conformed to EU ambitions
Europas have og oceaner skal være verdens reneste, med den mest stabile biologiske mangfoldighed, den bedste forskning, den bedste økonomi og den mest moderne skibsflåde.
MEPs in the Agriculture Committee support the objectives of the Commission's Animal Health Strategy for the EU, but call for more ambition and stress that such objectives can only be achieved with a sufficient and clearly defined budget.
Men i betænkningen af Willy PIECYK (PSE, DK) mener MEP'erne at Kommissionens handlingsplan på området skal være mere ambitiøs for at kunne nå disse mål.
They also strongly support vaccination, which according to them should be recognised as one of the more important methods to prevent diseases.
Tirsdag, umiddelbart efter debatten i salen, bliver den europæiske hav-dag fejret uden for parlamentssalen.
The strategy aims to strengthen public health protection and food safety, reduce the occurrence of animal diseases, support economic growth by favouring the freedom of circulation of animals and animal products, and promote animal welfare and environment protection.
MEP'erne beklager, at handlingsplanen kun behandler udfordringerne fra klimaændringerne på en uforpligtende måde - de ønsker at det blandt andet skal være den europæiske havpolitik, der skal være med til at forberede os på konsekvenserne af klimaændringerne.
The report calls for the Commission to clarify the role of the EU, Member States and the agricultural sector in financing the animal health measures, for example, ensuring biological security on farms, vaccination programmes, scientific research and higher animal welfare standards.
MEP'erne minder i den forbindelse om, at de smeltende gletschere ikke kun fører til øget vandstand, men også til uigenkaldelige skader på menneskeliv og dyr og planter, og de er derfor tilfredse med Kommissionens hensigt om at komme med et arktisk initiativ.
Mr Wojciechowski draws attention to the fact that the common animal health policy is one of the most integrated EU policies and states that "most of its funding should be covered by the Community budget, which should not preclude the financial responsibility of the Member States and farmers".
De ønsker også, at Kommissionen skal være mere ambitiøs i forhold til at bekæmpe svovl og kvælstofdioxidemissioner og mener, at der i den forbindelse er behov for større samarbejde med IMO - den internationale søfartsorganisation.
The report states that measures should be applied to "reduce the number of healthy animals slaughtered and disposed of, such as tests to prove that animals are free from pathogens", and that it is essential to ensure the availability of "humane means of carrying out any necessary culling of animals that will spare them unnecessary suffering".
Forureningen fra land skal tages alvorligt Det er ikke kun forurening til havs, der optager MEP'erne, der henviser til, at en stor del af forureningen af havene kommer fra land, og at det er et emne, Kommissionen ikke hidtil har beskæftiget sig med.
To ensure the "indiscriminate circulation of products derived from vaccinated animals", the report calls on the Commission and Member States "for a ban on consumer labelling of products derived from vaccinated animals" and to use "effective public communication strategies regarding the harmlessness of products derived from vaccinated animals".
MEP'erne kræver derfor, at Kommissionen kommer med en handlingsplan for nedbringelse af denne forurening.
The report supports the development of vaccination strategies for all relevant species and diseases, and recalls Parliament's amendments to the 2008 EU Budget to increase appropriations for the development of vaccines and testing methods.
Den europæiske havdag For at understrege vigtigheden af EU's havpolitik støtter MEP'erne op om forslaget om en europæisk havdag.
For example, the delay in taking measures to ensure that imports of Brazilian beef came only from cattle that were free of foot-and-mouth disease at the end of 2007 undermined "public confidence in the EU animal health regime."
Fiskeripolitikken har ikke sikret bæredygtighed MEP'erne mener ikke, at den fælles fiskeripolitik har sikret hverken havressourcernes bæredygtighed eller kystsamfundenes levedygtighed.
If passed when voted on by the European Parliament on Thursday (22 May), this own initiative report will be followed by Commission legislative proposals to be adopted under co-decision.
De mener derfor, at den integrerede havpolitik for EU skal udvikles på en måde, hvorpå de svagheder der har kendetegnet den fælles fiskeripolitik bliver undgået.
A Commission Action Plan with detailed timetable is expected for the summer (July or September).

Situationen i Burma og Kina bekymrer
Transfer of tobacco aid for to the Community Tobacco Fund
MEP'erne vil onsdag diskutere situationen i Burma/Myanmar og Kina med Kommissionen og Rådet.
MEPs will debate and vote on amendments to extend by six years the financing of the Community Tobacco Fund, which is funded by EU tobacco producers and finances information campaigns on the dangers of tobacco.
EU's udenrigsministre blev i denne uge hasteindkaldt for at diskutere den kritiske situation, efter en tyfon ramte Burma 100.000 mennesker frygtes dræbt.
The consultation report by Sergio BERLATO (UEN, IT) on the Commission's proposals for the Community Tobacco Fund calls on the Commission to amend the suggestion to transfer 5% of the tobacco aid granted for the calendar years 2008 and 2009 to the Community Tobacco Fund.
MEP'erne vil på baggrund af debatten vedtage et beslutningsforslag.
Instead of this, the report proposes a more ambitious 6% transfer every year until 2013, stating that the fight against tobacco consumption is a priority for the Parliament and the use of the fund for information initiatives on the damage tobacco can cause is "of value to all EU citizens".
Under ministrenes møde opfordrede Rådet myndighederne i Burma/Myanmar til at give internationale humanitære eksperter fri og uhindret adgang til landet.
The report is linked to an old request by the Parliament aimed at ensuring the continuation of aid to EU tobacco producers until 2013, whereas the 2004 reform of the sector decided that the link between tobacco production and support to farmers should be cut in 2010 at the latest.
EU-Kommissær for udvikling og humanitær bistand, Louis Michel er rejst til Burma/Myanmar.
It is also the fifth largest producer, behind China, Brazil, India and the United States.
MEP'erne vil også diskutere situationen i Kina efter jordskælvet, der frygtes at have kostet op mod 50.000 mennesker livet.
There are currently nine tobacco-producing EU Member States: Greece, Italy, Belgium, Germany, Spain, France, Portugal, Poland and Bulgaria.

Sundhedstjek af landbrugsstøtten
An integrated maritime policy for the EU - 20 May to be designated European Maritime Day
Som opfølgning på sit 'sundhedstjek' af landbrugsstøtten vil den danske landbrugskommissær Mariann Fischer Boel tirsdag i Strasbourg præsentere de konkrete lovforslag for medlemmerne af Landbrugsudvalget.
It is felt that climate change challenges are addressed in a non-binding way, and that it should be the task of European Maritime Policy to prepare in particular for rising sea levels, with the increased risk of flooding of ports and of coastal regions.
