Danske talere Johannes LEBECH (ALDE, DK) talte under debatten tirsdag formiddag.
Sergei Kozlík (NA, SK) said that the ECB had played a key role in ensuring a strong economic performance in the euro zone.
Han understregede dog, at Nord Stream har en særlig og principiel interesse for Europa.
In his reply to the debate, Eurogroup president Jean-Claude Juncker criticised the "wave of nostalgia for the 1970s and 1980s".

MEP'ere roser Centralbanken, men ønsker forsigtighed i forhold til rentestigninger
All-inclusive air fares just around the corner as MEP back legislation on transparency
Den Europæiske Centralbank (ECB) får ros af MEP'erne, som mener, at Centralbanken har gjort et 'glimrende' stykke arbejde i håndteringen af den finansielle uro oven på subprimekrisen i USA.
Air fares that are "addressed directly to the travelling public" will have to include all applicable taxes, non-avoidable charges, surcharges and fees known at the time of publication.
I betænkningen af Olle SCHMIDT (ALDE, SV), som blev vedtaget med 501 stemmer for, 83 imod og 78 hverken for eller imod, forholder MEP'erne sig til ECB's årsberetning for 2007.
According to Arūnas DEGUTIS (ALDE, LT): "This regulation promotes price transparency for the passenger and fair prices.
Vær varsom med rentestigningerne MEP'erne mener dog, at Centralbanken skal være forsigtig med yderligere at forhøje renten for ikke at bringe den økonomiske vækst i fare.
This transparency has to be a good thing, and I hope it will end what has been over recent years an exercise in deceit by some airlines which try to con the travelling public into believing they are buying a very cheap ticket when the opposite is true."

The new regulation should enter into force later this year or early next year.

Mere gennemsigtige priser på flyrejser
Europe-wide authorisation of railway rolling stock, but heritage railways exempted by MEPs
Det skal klart fremgå af flybilletterne og af bestillingsformularerne på Internettet, hvor stor en del af prisen, der går til skatter og afgifter.
The European Parliament approved an agreement reached with the Council on the EU-wide approval of different types of railway rolling stock.
Parlamentet gav onsdag grønt lys for de nye regler, som kan komme til at træde i kraft allerede ved udgangen af i år.
Under the new legislation, any rolling stock already approved for use in one Member State will have to be accepted in the other states.
Baggrunden for de nye regler er, at Kommissionen vil ændre forordningen fra 1992, som er en del af den tredje pakke om liberalisering af luftfarten.
Efficiency must not come at the expense of safety, and the Commission proposed from the outset that Member States' authorities be allowed to impose additional national safety requirements in some cases, for example to take account of "local system specifications".
Alle flyselskaber skal derfor give den brede offentlighed detaljeret information om deres priser og om alle skatter og afgifter - også på Internettet.
Speaking in the debate in Strasbourg on 8 July, Brian Simpson (PES, UK, Labour North West) said: " Finally, I must thank our rapporteur and all the Members for their support of my amendments exempting heritage and tourist railways from this directive.
I forhold til afgifter skal det fremgå, hvor stor en del der er lufthavnsafgifter, hvor stor en del der er sikkerhedsafgifter, brændstofafgifter etc. Den danske forbrugerombudsmand har netop offentliggjort navne på syv flyselskaber, som ikke lever op til fuld gennemsigtighed i forhold til priserne.
Had they been forced to comply, the cost burden would have been crippling, putting at risk the preservation of that rich industrial heritage that these railways undoubtedly provide. "

Behov for nytænkning i forhold til mobilitet i byerne
Towards a new culture for urban mobility
Der er akut brug for nytænkning og innovative projekter for at kunne imødekomme de negative konsekvenser, som transporten i byerne har på klimaet og miljøet.
New thinking and innovative concepts on mobility on cities are urgently needed in order to tackle the negative effects of urban transport on climate change and the environment.
Onsdag vedtog Parlamentet en initiativ-betænkning, der opfordrer til en klar definition af EU's rolle i forhold til at udforme en politik for by-transport.
By adopting an own-initiative report (581 votes in favour to 100 against and 33 abstentions) on a recent Commission Green Paper, the European Parliament calls for a clear definition of the EU's role in terms of urban mobility policy, with due respect to the subsidiarity principle.
I betænkningen af Reinhard RACK (PPE-DE, AT), som blev vedtaget med 558 stemmer for, 100 imod og 33 hverken for eller imod, beder MEP'erne om en samlet europæisk tilgang til mobilitet i byerne, som skal være en fælles ramme for de europæiske byer, og som skal være med til at opmuntre dem til at komme med planer for bæredygtig mobilitet i byerne.
MEPs said that action at EU level should only be taken when it provided a clear added value and they ask for an integrated European urban approach to urban mobility, which should serve as a common frame of reference for European cities and should encourage them to draw up Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (SUMP).
På de områder, hvor EU har kompetence, som f.eks. miljø-, industri-, regional- og samhørighedspolitikken, skal der tages hensyn til behovene i forhold til transport i byerne.
Where the EU has legislative power in the field of environment, industry, regional and cohesion policy, it should take into account the needs of urban transport.
Derudover beder MEP'erne i betænkningen om fælles EU-regler på en række områder som f.eks. i forhold til, hvordan de forskellige transportformer skal kunne kombineres, og om hvordan transportmuligheder for handicappede skal sikres, fælles regler for indførelse af grønne zoner og bom-penge.
Furthermore, the report asks for specific EU rules on standardisation and harmonisation in a number of areas, for instance in relation to the interoperability of transport modes, the mobility of people with disabilities or the introduction of green zones and road pricing.
MEP'erne understreger dog, at beslutningerne om, hvorvidt der skal gøres brug af disse foranstaltninger, altid skal tages på lokalt plan.
The decision on whether or not to introduce these measures should, however, be taken at local level.
Derudover ønsker Parlamentet at gøre det lettere at udveksle gode erfaringer på tværs af grænser i forhold til f.eks. hvordan man kan fremme alternative transportformer, eller hvordan man kan fremme offentlig transport.
The House is also in favour of facilitating the dissemination of best practices throughout the EU, such as the promotion of alternative modes of transport, multi-modality or the improvement of public transport.

It is proposed to create a "European Platform for Urban Mobility", which should bring together relevant data, practices and policy information.

MEP'ere ønsker mere konkurrence på gasmarkedet og bedre vilkår for forbrugerne
Environmental and geopolitical concerns mix in EP objections to Nord Stream project
For at skabe mere konkurrence på gasmarkedet mener MEP'erne, at der skal være mere adskillelse af ejerskabet af gasledningerne og produktions- og forsyningsvirksomhed.
In a report adopted by 542 votes in favour, 60 against and 38 abstentions, the EP calls on Commission and Council to be more actively involved in evaluating the potential environmental impact of this gas pipeline.
I en afstemning onsdag bakker MEP'erne også med stort flertal op om at give forbrugerne bedre vilkår.
The report responds to two petitions by Polish and Lithuanian environmental associations who fear that the planned pipeline could harm marine eco-systems.
I forhold til liberaliseringen af både gas- og elmarkedet har det store stridspunkt - både i Parlamentet og blandt medlemslandenes regeringer - været spørgsmålet om den ejermæssige adskillelse af transmissionsnet og produktion.
They stress that "while carrying out work in an area of up to 2,400 km² in the Baltic Sea, requiring the use of a large number of vessels and other equipment, could represent a serious threat to biodiversity and to the number of habitats", and that Nord Stream AG should be obliged to pay compensation for any environmental damage.
Ejermæssig adskillelse (på engelsk 'unbundling') er princippet om, at det skal være to forskellige firmaer, der henholdsvis producerer strømmen eller leverer gassen og ejer nettene.
Toxic substances such as mustard gas, sulphur yperite, nitrogen yperite, lewisite, Clark I, Clark II and adamsite are all present in about 80,000 tonnes of munitions that are now very heavily corroded and cannot always be located, adds the report.
Det er et princip, som især Frankrig og Tyskland med store monopoler på markedet har kæmpet imod.
As the EU depends on a limited number of energy sources, suppliers and transport routes, "it is essential to support initiatives aimed at their diversification, both geographically and by developing sustainable alternatives", says the report.
Derfor har der under bearbejdelsen af begge forslag været præsenteret forskellige modeller for, hvor vandtætte skotter, der skal være mellem produktionsfirmaet og dem, der står for distributionen.
It also underlines that "energy security must be regarded as an essential component of the overall security of the European Union," taking into account "the geopolitical dependency on imports and the potential therein for politically motivated interruptions."
Hvor Parlamentet i junisamlingen stod fast på, at der i forhold til elmarkedet skal være fuld ejermæssig adskillelse, lægger MEP'erne op til en lidt anden model i forhold til gasmarkedet.
The Parliament notes that the Nord Stream pipeline will be only one of a large number of infrastructure projects, such as pipelines and liquid natural gas facilities, needed to meet growing demand for natural gas.
Gasfirmaerne vil altså i denne model stadig kunne være ejere af nettet, men den uafhængige enhed, de opretter, skal stå for driften.
The Parliament notes that the Nord Stream pipeline is "a project of European interest that would help meet the EU's future energy needs."
Der vil desuden være en række foranstaltninger, der skal sikre, at nettene er åbne for konkurrence.
While saying that "Nord Stream is an infrastructure project with a wide political and strategic dimension for both the EU and Russia,", the House also notes "the lack of institutional structures capable of responding adequately to the environmental and geopolitical security issues associated with this project."
Da øget liberalisering også betyder, at der vil være flere firmaer til at kæmpe om kunderne, er det også nødvendigt at sikre en række rettigheder til forbrugerne, så de ikke ender med at blive ladt i stikken.
Emphasising that "greater EU involvement would reduce the uncertainty felt by many Member States," the report asks the Commission to evaluate the environmental impact of the project.

According to the proposed changes, written questions will have to fall within the EU's competences, be concise and not contain offensive language.

The report was adopted with 516 votes in favour, 143 against and 36 abstentions.

Parliament adopted the report to implement the proposals made by the Working Group on Parliamentary Reform, established last year and ably chaired by German Socialist MEP Dagmar ROTH-BEHRENDT.
Parlamentet ønskede også at sikre de sårbare forbrugere, og at EU-landene skal tage initiativer, der skal mindske antallet af de, som ikke har råd til at opvarme deres hjem, og at gøre det forbudt at afbryde forsyningen af gas til handicappede og pensionister om vinteren.

MEP'ere: Forholdet til Kina i positiv udvikling, men menneskerettighederne bekymrer
European Parliament increases threshold to form a political group
I et beslutningsforslag vedtaget torsdag udtrykker Parlamentet tilfredshed med udviklingen i forbindelserne mellem EU og Kina, og opfordrer de kinesiske myndigheder til at benytte OL til i Beijing til at forbedre menneskerettighedssituationen ved at benåde alle politiske fanger og menneskerettighedsaktiviteter.
After the June 2009 European elections, to enjoy the status of political group within the Parliament, a minimum of 25 Members representing at least 7 Member States will be needed.
Formanden for Europa-Parlamentet, Hans-Gert Pöttering meddelte dog onsdag, at han ikke ønskede at deltage i åbningsceremonien i Beijing.
MEPs decided to amend their internal rules to raise the threshold to constitute a political group.
MEP'erne understreger betydningen af støtte fra EU, medlemslandene og det internationale samfund i genopbygningsfasen i det berørte områder, og noterer sig med tilfredshed, at Kina uden tøven har taget imod bistand fra det internationale samfund
By approving the report by Richard CORBETT (PES, UK), the House agreed to amend the rules of procedure to raise the threshold to 25 MEPs (3.3% of total membership), representing at least one quarter of the Member States (i.e. 7 Member States).
Tibet og OL
A compromise solution
Parlamentet glæder sig i betænkningen over, at forbindelserne mellem repræsentanterne for Dalai Lama og de kinesiske myndigheder er blevet genoptaget efter begivenhederne i Lhasa i marts 2008.
During the vote in the Constitutional Affairs' committee on 26 May, an amendment proposing to raise the threshold to 30 MEPs was rejected by a majority of one vote, with 15 against and 14 in favour.
MEP'erne opfordrer de kinesiske myndigheder til at standse sin "kampagne for patriotisk omskoling."
Just 2.5% of our membership can create a political group.
MEP'erne opfordrer desuden Kina til at respektere sine egne officielle løfter om menneskerettigheder og mindretalsrettigheder, demokrati og retstatsprincippet som den Internationale Olympiske komité bekendtgjorde, da den besluttede, at Kina skal være vært for OL.
When you remember that constituting a group gives those Members extra resources above what ordinary Members get as a Member – extra resources as a group in terms of finance from the taxpayer, in terms of staff and in terms of procedural privileges – it should give us cause to reflect."
Under onsdagens debat meddelte den franske Europaminister Jean-Pierre Jouyet efter drøftelser med hans kollegaer i Rådet, at Frankrigs præsident Nicolas Sarkozy vil deltage som repræsentant for både Frankrig og EU i sin egenskab som fungerende formand.
Particularly, the President of the EP, in agreement with the Conference of groups' Presidents, can allow a group with less than the required number of Members to exist till the end of the term, if:
Fælles beslutningsforslag
members continue to represent at least one-fifth of the Member States and
Afstemning: 10.7.2008 Europa-Parlamentets beslutning af 10 . juli 2008 om situationen i Kina efter jordskælvet og før De Olympiske Lege
If there is "sufficient evidence" that this right is being abused, the President of the Parliament can avoid applying the derogation.

MEP'ere: Udvidelse må ikke svække EU's fremdrift
Airbus/Boeing disputes: MEPs defend the European aircraft industry
De tidligere udvidelser af EU har været en succes, men EU's evne til at kunne integrere nye lande må ikke glemmes ved fremtidige udvidelser, mener MEP'erne i betænkningen af Elmar BROK (PPE-DE, DE), som Parlamentet vedtog med stort flertal torsdag morgen.
MEPs support the defence of EU interests in the pending dispute settlement proceedings before the WTO, in a resolution adopted with 589 votes in favour, 53 against and 64 abstentions.
Udvidelser uden tilstrækkelig forberedelse kan svække Unionens interne samhørighed, mener MEP'erne.
On June 18, the GAO (Government Accountability Office) recommended that the US Air Force re-open the bidding process over tankers.
Der er langt fra det oprindelige EU med 6 medlemslande, til det EU med 27 medlemslande, som vi kender det i dag.
The report of the Government Accountability Office sustaining Boeing's bid protest is recognised as an evaluation merely of the selection process and not the merits of the aircraft.
Men udvidelserne, der gennem EU's historie har mangedoblet antallet af borgere og antallet af lande i samarbejdet, har generelt været en succes, mener MEP'erne i betænkningen, som blev vedtaget med 534 stemmer for, 44 imod og 45 hverken for eller imod.
Parliament reaffirms its belief that the integrity of the US Department of Defence procurement process will remain intact for all competitors.
De understreger, at udvidelserne har været til gavn for både gamle og nye medlemslande, da de har været med til at fremme den økonomiske vækst og sociale fremskridt, og skabt fred, stabilitet, frihed og velstand i EU.
Parliament is concerned with the "bitter attacks" of Boeing and the US Congress portraying EADS operations and certain Member States as "unreliable aerospace partners" and a "security risk" to US military readiness.
Københavnskriterierne skal overholdes
WTO rulings vs. negotiated solution
Nye lande må ikke svække EU's fremdrift
MEPs urge Italy to stop the ethnic census of Roma
MEP'erne nævner fire faktorer, som spiller ind i den forbindelse: For det første skal tiltrædelseslandene kunne bidrage til - og ikke svække - EU's evne til at 'bevare fremdriften hen mod opfyldelse af de politiske mål.'
MEPs also say the integration of Roma people should be ensured at European level.
For det andet skal EU's institutioner kunne sikre en effektiv og produktiv ledelse.
The resolution was adopted with 336 votes in favour 220 against and 77 abstentions.
For det tredje skal der være penge nok til at kunne imødekomme udfordringerne i forhold til social og økonomisk samhørighed.
A motion from EPP-ED, aiming to postpone the vote until September to wait for explanations from the Italian governments, was rejected by 316 votes against 296 and 14 abstentions.
MEP'erne understreger, at udvidelser uden tilstrækkelig konsolidering og forberedelser kan svække Unionens interne samhørighed.
MEPs also voiced concern at the affirmation that a 12-month "state of emergency" could be justified by the presence of Romani camps, thus allowing extraordinary measures, in derogation of laws, to be taken.
Folkelig opbakning vigtig for succes
Members say this is "non adequate nor proportionate" to the case.
MEP'erne mener desuden, at udvidelsesprocessens succes afhænger af, om der er klar offentlig opbakning til EU-medlemskabet i de enkelte kandidatlande.
They consider that the best way to protect the rights of Roma children is to guarantee equal access to quality education, housing and healthcare through integration policies, and to protect them from exploitation.
Derfor mener MEP'erne, at yderligere udvidelser bør gå hånd i hånd med en samordnet kommunikationspolitik, som inddrager alle EU-institutionerne og alle medlemslandenes regeringer og repræsentanter for civilsamfundet.
They ask for the Commission and Member states to launch an EU Roma strategy for their inclusion and integration and recalls that Parliament, in a vote in January, urged Member states to solve the problem of slums and illegal camps .
De lande, som har udsigt til at blive medlemmer af EU, skal gøre alt for at forklare, inddrage og forberede deres offentlighed på medlemskabet, mener MEP'erne.
Parliament calls on the Commission to review the measures defined by the Italian government in order to check their compatibility with EU law.
Naboskabspolitik og udvidelse
Security and defence
Den begrebsmæssige, juridiske og politiske kløft mellem naboskabspolitikken og udvidelsesstrategien bør udlignes, mener MEP'erne, der dog ikke finder Kommissionens styrkede naboskabspolitik tilstrækkelig.
The report underlines "the need for space assets in order that the political and diplomatic activities of the European Union may be based on independent, reliable and complete information”.
