Men i maj besluttede Kommissionen, at de to lande har gjort fremskridt og anbefalede derfor, at Parlamentet og Rådet giver grønt lys til afskaffelse af visumkravet for besøg af under 3 måneders varighed inden udgangen af i år.
Last May, however, the Commission decided that the two countries had made good progress and therefore recommended that Parliament and the Council give the go-ahead to abolish the visa requirements by the end of the year, for visits of less than three months.
Parlamentets ordfører Tanja Fajon (S&D, SL) støtter initiativet.
The Civil Liberties Committee's recommendation, drafted by Tanja Fajon (S&D, SL), backs the Commission's proposal.

EU's Globaliseringsfond: Støtte til Danmark og Spanien
Globalisation Fund: EU aid for redundant workers in Spain and Denmark
Plenarforsamling skal godkende støtte til ialt 1649 arbejdstagere fra Danmark og Spanien, som har mistet deres jobs.
The European Parliament will vote on proposals to provide nearly €12 million in EU aid to 1,649 workers in Spain and Denmark who became redundant following the closure of their companies.
Den samlede beløber sig til næsten 12 mio. euro.
The total financial assistance envisaged is €11,951,544.
For Danmarks vedkommende vil støtten gå til tidligere ansatte ved Linak AS og Danfoss Group.
The funding for Denmark will go to two machinery manufacturers in the Syddanmark region, Linak A.S. and the Danfoss Group.
I Spanien vil støtten gå til tidligere medarbejdere fra 82 tekstilvirksomheder i Galicien.
For Spain the funds will go to Galicia, where 82 companies in the textile and clothing industry had to lay off staff between 1 March and 30 June 2009.
Efter, at Parlamentets Budgetudvalg i sidste uge gav grønt lys for støtten, skal plenarforsamlingen og Ministerrådet godkende forslaget.
The EP Budgets Committee has backed the plans but the approval of the full Parliament and the Council of Ministers is still needed.
Den Europæiske Fond for Tilpasning til Globaliseringen (EGTF) blev oprettet for at yde supplerende støtte til arbejdstagere, der har mistet deres job som følge af finanskrisen eller de gennemgribende ændringer i de globale handelsmønstre, med henblik på at hjælpe dem tilbage på jobmarkedet.
The European Globalisation Adjustment Fund (EGF) was established to provide additional support for workers made redundant as a result of major structural changes in world trade patterns due to globalisation or the financial crisis, and to help them rejoin the labour market.

MEP'ere bekæmper forsinket betaling
Late payments: MEPs demand max of 30 days
Barbara Weiler : "Denne aftale betyder, at SMV'erne ikke længere vil være tvunget til at fungere som banker for offentlige myndigheder eller store virksomheder" ©BELGA_imagebroker_uwe umstatter Forsinkede betalinger fører til destabilisering af markedet Nye tidsfrister Forsinkede betalinger er blevet et stadig større problem i forbindelse med den økonomiske krise.
Failure by their customers to pay their bills promptly can mean insolvency for many companies. ©BELGA ALL BILLS TO BE PAID IN 30 DAYS 60 DAYS FOR HEALTHCARE OR IF BOTH PARTIES AGREE In the present economic crisis late payments for goods or services can mean the difference between staying in business and going bankrupt.
På trods af visse forbedringer forekommer der stadig ofte forsinket betaling i handelstransaktioner mellem virksomheder eller mellem virksomheder og offentlige myndigheder.
Smaller businesses across Europe are particularly vulnerable to late payments from customers.
Medlemmerne af Parlamentets Udvalg om Det Indre Marked og Forbrugerbeskyttelse bakkede tirsdag den 5. oktober op om en aftale med Rådet og Kommissionen, der skal sikre, at navnlig små og mellemstore virksomheder, betales rettidigt.
Members of the cross party Internal Market Committee Tuesday (5 Wednesday) backed a 30 day limit for payments from the private and public sector.
Den sigter også mod at gøre det indre marked mere velfungerende ved at fjerne hindringerne for grænseoverskridende handelstransaktioner.
For providers of healthcare the limit will now be 60 days as social security costs can take time to be reimbursed.
Destabilisering af markedet
The penalties agreed are the base interest rate plus 8% and recovery costs of 40 euro.
I de medlemsstater, hvor dette problem er størst, er virksomhederne i særlig grad udsat for risikoen for en gradvis nedgang i indtægterne, der kan ende med fare for konkurs.
It was this that formed the basis of an agreement reached on 13 September and which has been endorsed by the Internal Market Committee.
Nye tidsfrister
Late payments are not just a nuisance.
Ifølge de nye regler bør det som princip kræves af offentlige og private ordregivende myndigheder, at de betaler deres fakturaer indenfor 30 dage.
They can lead to closures for small businesses and the resulting job losses.
Det vil dog fortsat være muligt for kontrahenterne specifikt at enes om betalingsfrister, som er længere end 60 dage, men kun forudsat at en sådan forlængelse ikke fører til "urimelig skade" for kreditor.
The problem is being exacerbated at present because banks are less willing to provide bridging loans for small businesses waiting for late payments.
Renten, der vil blive tillagt forsinkede betalinger, vil komme til at ligge på 8 %.
For example a local newspaper may struggle to pay staff and printing costs if a customer does not pay their bills on time.
Ordfører Barbara Weiler (S&D, Tyskland) sagde efter afstemningen: "Parlamentet har sikret lige vilkår og klare regler for alle involverede, hvilket er til gavn for Europas mange små og mellemstore virksomheder.
Speaking after the September agreement German Socialist MEP Barbara Weiler, who guided the measures through Parliament, said that the " Parliament has secured a level playing field and clear-cut rules for all players, to the benefit of Europe's many small and medium-sized companies".
Denne aftale betyder, at SMV'erne ikke længere vil være tvunget til at fungere som banker for offentlige myndigheder eller store virksomheder."
She went on to say that "this deal means that small and medium size business will no longer be forced to serve as banks for public enterprises or big companies".

Et mere effektivt og fair marked for handel og distribution
Europe's retail market under spotlight in report
Lokale butikker med adgang til basale varer og tjenester, navnlig fødevarebutikker, er af stor betydning for ældre, handicappede og personer, der bor i tyndtbefolkede områder.
Shops came under the spotlight Wednesday (29 September) as a European Commission report was discussed by MEPs on the Internal Market Committee.
Arbejdsmarkedslovgivningerne i medlemsstaterne varierer meget på trods af de minimumsstandarder, der er fastsat i EU-lovgivningen.
It says that older people, the disabled and those who live in remote areas in particular could be vulnerable to a lack of access.
Derfor er der store forskelle i arbejdsvilkårene for de europæiske arbejdstagere.
Moreover, the report makes the case that shopping online ("e-commerce") should be encouraged to help people access shops if they cannot do so physically.
Forbedring af arbejdsvilkårene og bekæmpelse af den uformelle økonomi fremhæves af Kommissionen som vigtige udfordringer.
However, she noted that the supermarkets had the ability to create jobs for low skilled workers.
Kommissionen vil undersøge, hvordan der kan udformes en integreret europæisk miljøpolitik for handels- og distributionsmarkedet.
That finding will be welcomed by many farmers who have protested at the power of large supermarkets to determine prices and effectively force down the amount paid at the farm gate to the farmer.
Bekæmpelse af de store kæders dominans
High energy usage & a lack of appreciation of impact
Afskaffelse af opsplitningen (af markedet) er en win-win situation.
The environmental sustainable of the sector was also examined.
Vi er nødt til at handle i forhold til de store problemer, som alle de små virksomheder står over for, navnlig de store kæders dominans på markedet".
The report found that the retail sector was high in energy consumption and that there was insufficient consideration given to the environmental impact of products.
Britiske Catherine Stihler (S&D) understregede i sit indlæg vigtigheden af trivsel på arbejdspladserne i detailsektoren: "Hvordan kan vi opmuntre dem, der ikke investerer nok, til at investere mere i menneskelig kapital?
In addition there is no clear way of identifying the lifecycle of products between different counties.
Detailsektoren er en vigtig sektor og mange af de mennesker, der arbejder i sektoren, udfører et fantastisk stykke arbejde, som de ikke bliver belønnet for".
German Green MEP Heide Rühle told fellow MEP at their discussions that "we need to focus on sustainability and transparency of food chain particularly when it moves across borders".

Sydafrikas præsident: Stop sanktionerne mod Zimbabwe
South Africa's Zuma calls for end to Zimbabwe sanctions
Zuma sagde, at Sydafrika havde spillet en afgørende rolle for nylige reformer i Zimbabwe, blandt andet ved at facilitere den nuværende aftale om magtdelingen i landet.
In his first visit to the Parliament after becoming South Africa's President, Mr Zuma held talks with MEPs on the Foreign Affairs and Development Committees.
Den Sydafrikanske præsident kritiserede EU's og USA's indefrysning af zimbabwiske økonomiske ressourcer og de eksisterende indrejseforbud (for præsident Mugabe og andre fremtrædende regeringsmedlemmer).
South Africa's President stressed that it important to abandon the sanctions against individuals (such as Robert Mugabe) otherwise they "give credit to the argument of the Zanu PF (President Mugabe's political party) that the functioning of the unity government is not supported to the fullest".
Zuma mente, at den slags tiltag kun ville styrke præsident Mugabes politiske parti (Zanu PF).
Zuma's predecessor, Thabo Mbeki, drew international criticism for his supposed ambivalent stance on the need to fight it.
"EU kan spille en vigtig rolle i forhold til udviklingslandene", påpegede han og understregede vigtigheden af det kommende EU-Afrika-topmøde, der finder sted i november.
In addition the importance of projects by the European Investment Bank and investment in small businesses was stressed.

EU- Kina topmøde i Bruxelles
Taking stock of Europe's relations with China
Blomstrende handel med Kina Kina verdensmester i CO2-udledning EU og Kina afholder den 6. oktober deres 13. topmøde i Bruxelles.
13th EU-CHINA SUMMIT IN BRUSSELS ON 6 OCTOBER 1,3 BILLION CHINESE HAVE GROWING TRADE LINKS WITH 495 MILLION EUROPEANS China and the European Union will hold their annual meeting in Brussels on 6 October.
De seneste årtiers buldrende vækst har gjort Kina til en af verdens mest magtfulde økonomiske aktører og en vigtig samhandelspartner for EU.
The relationship is complex with China's growing economic clout making it a force to be reckoned with on the international stage.
Flere af Europa-Parlamentets medlemmer er dog stærkt bekymret over menneskerettighedssituationen i Kina.
Despite recognising the importance of the trade relationship - many MEPs are concerned by human rights issues.
Samhandelen stiger med over 16 % om året, og Kina er stadig EU's vigtigste kilde til forarbejdede varer.
This trade is growing at over 16% a year and China is still the EU's number one source of manufactured goods.
Men forholdet har dog også indimellem været præget af kontroverser om pirateri og manglende respekt for intellektuelle ophavsrettigheder.
Despite this, the relationship has been dogged by controversies over piracy, intellectual copyright (where European ideas and technology are copied or stolen) and in ensuring that Beijing complies by the rules of the World Trade Organisation.
Dette er sket i takt med den voksende industrialisering af landet.
This has come hand in hand with its growing industrialisation and rising standards of living.
Flere kinesiske politikere er ivrige efter at fortsætte den buldrende vækst og har reageret kraftigt mod klimaaftaler, der vil kunne hæmme den økonomiske udvikling.
Many Chinese leaders are anxious to continue this growth and have reacted strongly when already industrialised Western countries have tried to get China to agree to international agreements reducing emissions which Beijing fears could jeopardise growth.
Det mest slående eksempel var det mislykkede klimatopmøde i København i december sidste år.
The most striking example of this was the failure of the Copenhagen climate talks last December which will reconvene in Cancun Mexico at the end of the year.
Selvom Kina er ved at udvikle sig til en af verdens førende producenter af ren energi, er det de færreste der tror på, at kineserne selv vil være i stand til at levere CO2-reduktioner i samme størrelsesorden som Europa.
Although China is now becoming a world leader of clean energy production is clear that getting binding emission targets both for the industrialised and developing world will be one of the major sticking points in Cancun if a deal replacing Kyoto after 2012 is to be reached.
Den næste klimakonference finder sted i Mexico i byen Cancun fra den 29. november til den 10. december.
Since 2005 the EU and China have had an official partnership on climate change which has focused on such projects as "zero emissions" coal technology based on CO2 capture and storage.
Kinesisk Laogai-lejre fordømt af MEP´er
Chinese "Laogai" camps condemned by MEPs
Laogai er betegnelsen for det kinesiske system af fængsler, hvor de indsatte tvinges til at arbejde.
Less than two weeks ago MEPs debated ways in which produce from Chinese work camps - "Laogai", could be prevented from entering Europe.
Personlig frihed på internettet er også et spørgsmål, der skiller vandene mellem Europa og Kina.
The freedom of the internet in China behind the "firewall of China" is also a case where Europe and China have differed.
