Mieczyslaw Edmund Janowski (UEN, PL) stod bag initiativbetænkningen om, hvordan EU's regionalpolitik kan være med til at sætte gang i innovationen.
If some citizens, rightly or wrongly believe that the EU is far from them, then thanks to Andria's report the EU so to speak has invited itself in the homes of its citizens".
Det er afgørende for mulighederne for at være innovative, at der er fri eller meget billig adgang til bredbånds-internet, hvor der kan søges videnskabelig, økonomisk, juridisk, kulturel og administrativ information.
The report was drafted by Mieczyslaw Janowski of the Union of Europe for the Nations Group (UEN) who told MEPs "only 21 regions of the EU, which is less then 10 % of all regions, spend more then 3% GDP for research and development".
EP-Briefing, Strasbourg, den 21. - 24. maj 2007

Debat om Europas fremtid
Tuesday 22 May 2007
Tirsdag og onsdag vil der være debat om Europas fremtid med to fremtrædende medlemmer af Det Europæiske Råd, Romano Prodi og Jan Peter Balkenende.
Robert STURDY (EPP-ED, UK) will lead the debate on a report on the Economic Partnership Agreements being negotiated between the EU and African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) countries.
Forenkling af landbrugspolitikken
These would replace the current system of generalised preferences, which is incompatible with WTO rules.
Landbrugsudvalget anbefaler Parlamentet at acceptere EU-Kommissionens forslag om at forenkle EU's fælles landbrugspolitik ved at sammenlægge de eksisterende 21 sektorspecifikke landbrugsforordninger i én forordning.
Given the delay in the talks and the lack of readiness on the part of the ACP countries, MEPs in the Trade Committee call in a report for the Commission to make the conditions for the agreements less onerous.
Skal sundhedsydelserne tilbage i Servicedirektivet?
The House will vote on a resolution on Wednesday.
Da Servicedirektivet blev vedtaget, var sundhedsydelser undtaget reglerne.
Later on Tuesday evening, the House will debate a report calling for minimum levels of duty for alcoholic drinks should be scrapped.
Kritik af Rådet i forhold til udenrigspolitikken
The text is likely to pave the way for a first-reading adoption of the dossier.
Udenrigsudvalget kritiserer i skarpe vendinger Rådet for ikke at have inddraget Parlamentet i de vigtigste aspekter og valg angående planlæggelsen af den fælles udenrigs- og sikkerhedspolitik (FUSP) 2007.
At the time of publication of the Briefing, the EPP-ED had signed up to the proposed agreement, whilst the PES still had some reservations.
Udvalget understreger også nødvendigheden i at oprette en position som udenrigsminister for EU.
The Industry Committee will meet in Strasbourg on 21 May to vote on the proposed package before it goes to the full plenary on 23 May for debate and vote.
MEP'ere vil erstatte fælles minimumafgifter på alkohol med adfærdskodeks
On Wednesday evening, Bill NEWTON DUNN (ALDE, UK) will present his report on tackling organised crime.
MEP'erne skal under samlingen i maj diskutere en betænkning, der ønsker at droppe minimumsafgifterne, og i stedet indføre en adfærdskodeks, hvor medlemslandene skal forsøge at nærme sig gennemsnits EU-niveauet.
The House will also debate the controversial " Via Baltica " the motorway running from Prague in the Czech Republic to Helsinki in Finland by way of Poland where there are environmental challenges, Kaunas (Lithuania), Riga (Latvia), and Tallinn (Estonia).

Under 3,75 kr. i minuttet for at ringe hjem fra ferien
Romano Prodi and Jan Peter Balkenenede to set out their views on the future of Europe in debate with MEPs
Efter lange forhandlinger med EU-landenes regeringer i ministerrådet har Parlamentet været med til at sikre en aftale, der kan lette mange mobiltelefonregninger i fremtiden.
MEPs will hear from the Italian Prime Minister and former European Commission President Romano Prodi on Tuesday 22 May at 3pm.
Det kan være rigtigt dyrt at bruge mobiltelefonen i udlandet.
MEPs will have the opportunity to debate the progress surrounding the Constitutional Treaty.
Det oplever mange, når de kommer hjem fra ferien til regninger med priser, der kan ligge på over 10 kroner i minuttet.
On Wednesday 23 May at 3pm, MEPs will hear from Dutch Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkenende on the same topic.
Men det skal det snart være slut med.
Situation of the Member States
Efter lange forhandlinger er Europa-Parlamentet og Ministerrådet nemlig blevet enige om at gøre det billigere at tale i mobiltelefon i andre europæiske lande.
As of March 2007 16 Member States have completed ratification, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Estonia, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Romania, Slovenia and Spain, two of which (Spain and Luxembourg) voted by referendum.
0,49 euro eller 3,68 kr. (+ moms) vil det højst koste at ringe hjem fra ferien, og hvis telefonen ringer på den franske riviera, vil det kun koste 0,24 euro i minuttet at tale eller 1,80 kr. (+ moms).
A further two (Germany and Slovakia) have almost finished ratification; and two have rejected it (France and the Netherlands).
Onsdag den 16.maj vil Rådet formelt give deres opbakning til kompromispakken, som forhandlerne fra Rådet og Parlamentet er nået frem til.
On 12 January 2005, the European Parliament adopted a report by a large majority, endorsing the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe and says it "wholeheartedly supports its ratification."
Grunden til, at det er så dyrt at tale i mobiltelefon i udlandet er, at operatørerne i de enkelte lande tager sig vel betalt for, at vi kan ’låne’ deres netværk.
The report by Richard CORBETT (PES, UK) and Íñigo MÉNDEZ DE VIGO (EPP-ED, ES) was adopted by 500 votes in favour to 137 votes against, with 40 abstentions.
Det betyder, at et dansk mobilselskab skal betale et fransk, for at vi kan få lov til at bruge telefonen i Frankrig.
Italy ratified the constitution on 6 April 2005 with an overwhelming majority in the upper house of parliament - 217 votes to 16.
De nye regler sætter derfor både grænser for, hvor meget selskaberne må kræve af hinanden, og hvor meget vi som forbrugere maksimalt skal betale for at ringe eller modtage opkald i udlandet.
The text, which was signed by EU leaders in Rome in 2004, was approved by the Italian lower house (the Chamber of Deputies) in January 2005.
Selvom både Rådet og Parlamentet var enige om, at der skulle gøres noget ved dette problem, var der lige til det sidste uenighed om, hvordan problemet med de høje priser skulle løses.
Centrist parties backed the constitution, however, the Northern League and the Communist Party, argued that it eroded regional and national sovereignty.
Uenighederne gik både på engros-priserne, altså de priser, teleselskaberne skal betale til operatørerne, og på detailpriserne, som er de priser, vi som forbrugere skal betale.
The Italian Prime Minister has recently said that reviving the European constitution is fundamental to Europe's future survival.
Prisgennemsigtighed, dato for ikrafttræden og fremtidig revision af reglerne var også til forhandling.
Mr Prodi, who was speaking ahead of celebrations to mark the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Rome, which established the Common Market, said he was for the constitution.
Resultat af forhandlingerne
"We have to have it before the European Parliament elections of 2009 because we are 27 countries and we need the rules," he said.
Det er lidt højere end det, Industriudvalget vedtog (0,40 for at ringe og 0,15 for at modtage) men lavere end det medlemslandenes regeringer ønskede.
The Dutch, who rejected the constitution in a referendum in 2005, want amendments to be made to existing treaties to improve the running of the EU, not a renewed attempt to introduce a constitution.
De havde oprindeligt lagt op til hhv.
They also want a clear separation between European and national roles.
0,50 euro for at ringe og 0,25 euro for at modtage – beløb, der kort inden forhandlingerne med Parlamentet gik i gang blev skruet op til hhv.
In a letter from the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Minister for European Affairs to the Dutch House of Representatives on the status of discussion on a new European treaty, dated 19 March 2007, the Dutch set out their latest position on their aims for discussions on amending European treaties:
Der er meningen, at disse priser gradvist skal blive lavere.
Whether or not the Member States have ratified the Treaty, they seem to agree on a number of points.
Kundens max-pris for at ringe fra udlandet*)
There is also a broad consensus that the treaties must be amended to prevent future stagnation brought on by eroding public support or an inadequate capacity for action.
Max. engros-pris som teleselskaberne skal betale

46 cents 3,43
46 cents
22 cents (1,64)
22 cents
28 cents (2,09)
28 cents
Efter forordningen har været trådt i kraft i tre måneder, vil de nye priser automatisk gælde for alle.
The European Union must bring its foreign policy goals in line with its citizens' wishes, says a report being put forward by the Foreign Affairs Committee.
Man kan til enhver tid melde de nye priser fra – uden at det skal koste noget.
It emphasises the need for internal steps, such as implementing certain measures proposed in the Constitutional Treaty, and external priorities, for example the fight against poverty, in order to have a common European voice in international affairs.
De kunder, som allerede har en særlig aftale om specielle priser på roaming, vil ikke automatisk bliver skiftet over til de nye priser (deres mobilselskab skal forinden informere dem om deres kontrakt, så de eventuelt selv kan vælge den nye model).
The own-initiative report by Elmar BROK (EPP-ED, DE) on the annual report from the Council on the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) in 2005, suggests that the EU's foreign policy "should target a limited number of areas which better connect with the wishes and concerns of European citizens and their expectations of the role to be played by the Union in international affairs."
Grænserne for, hvad det må koste for operatørerne, vil gælde fra to måneder efter forordningen træder i kraft
On non-proliferation issues, the report specifically expresses its concern "regarding the first test of an anti-satellite weapon carried out by China in January 2007."
Information og fremtidig regulering
The Constitutional Treaty and CFSP financing
For at sikre, at forbrugerne er klar over, hvad de betaler for roaming services foreslog MEP’erne en række ’gennemsigtigheds-foranstaltninger’.
"Without the Constitutional Treaty, [...] the European Union cannot shape a foreign policy that can at least partially meet the most important challenges," says the committee.
Hjemmeudbyderne skal give deres kunder detaljeret information om priserne på både opkald og modtagelse af opkald.
Members argue in favour of a mutual assistance clause, an office of Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the establishment of an EU Diplomatic Academy.
Ifølge kompromisteksten skal Kommissionen inden 18 måneder efter forordningen er trådt i kraft give Parlamentet og Rådet en melding om, hvad den nye lovgivning har betydet.
On the issue of the CFSP budget, MEPs in the committee regret that "that the specific article within the CFSP budget chapter devoted to European Union Special Representatives does not avoid the proliferation of envoys of that kind," which the committee thinks undermines the role of the Commission's delegations on the ground.
Kommissionen skal også holde øje med udviklingen i engros og detail-salget af data-kommunikation, herunder SMS og MMS og komme med anbefalinger til regulering inden for disse områder.
Furthermore, the committee is unsatisfied with the fact that "the new Interinstitutional Agreement does not change the existing rules on ESDP operations, such as the principle that 'costs lie where they fall'," which in effect places the financial cost of any military operation on the Member State who provides the troops to accomplish it.
Selv om det er meningen, at den nye forordning skal udløbe efter tre år, vil det også være op til Kommissionen at finde ud af, om der er grund til at forlænge perioden eller om markedet kan regulere sig selv.
This is a disincentive for governments to pledge troops, and could be avoided if such operations were financed directly from the EU's budget, the report argues.
Nedtælling til billigere roaming
Improving European Parliament oversight
Aftalen mellem Parlamentet og Rådet, som stadig mangler at få det grønne stempel af de politiske grupper i Parlamentet og af Rådet, vil danne grundlag for den afstemning, der skal finde sted i Parlamentet.
The committee also stresses the need to involve the EP more closely in the elaboration and oversight of CFSP goals.
Som et første skridt vil Industriudvalget stemme om kompromiset, der vil blive præsenteret som en pakke af ændringsforslag til Kommissionens tekst.
"The Council's practice of merely informing Parliament and submitting a descriptive list of CFSP activities carried out in the previous year, instead of really consulting Parliament at the beginning of each year [...] constitutes a de facto infringement of the very substance of Article 21" of the EU treaties, says the report.
Det koster stadig alt for meget at ringe i mobiltelefon og modtage opkald i udlandet.
Parliament will vote on a draft own-initiative report by the Internal Market Committee on the consequences of excluding health services from the Services Directive.
Der er kun sket et lille fremskridt, siden Kommissionen gik i gang med at udarbejde forslaget, og det viser, at teleselskaberne endnu ikke er klar til selv at regulere det.
A highly controversial amendment calling for healthcare to be reinstated in the Services Directive was approved.
Derfor er det nødvendigt med lovgivning, siger Karin Riis-Jørgensen, som forhandlede sagen i Udvalget for Indre Marked på vegne af sin gruppe ALDE.
The draft report, as amended, was adopted in committee by 20 votes to 18 with 2 abstentions, support coming broadly from the EPP-ED, ALDE and UEN groups, with Socialist Members and others voting mainly against.
Hendes største opgave i starten var at overbevise – både sin egen liberale gruppe - og resten af de borgerlige om, at der overhovedet var behov for regulering.
The report’s aim was to put forward a series of recommendations on EU action in the health sector in anticipation of possible legislation on patients' mobility in the EU and in reaction to a Commission consultation document on "Community action in the field of health care services".
”Som liberal, havde jeg naturligvis gerne set, at de frie markedskræfter satte priserne, men de er sat helt ud af spillet i dette tilfælde, hvor mobilselskaberne tjener styrtende med penge på roamingen.
Bearing in mind the steady increase in cross-border mobility of patients and health professionals, members of the committee agreed that - with regard to access to health services - Member States should treat all EU residents on an equal basis, "regardless of whether they are private or public patients".
Derfor mener jeg, at der i dette tilfælde er behov for regulering – i hvert fald som en start.
That said, while patients should be free to choose health care in another country, "medical tourism should not be actively encouraged".
Derfor har jeg også kæmpet for, at de nye regler skal gælde i tre år for hurtigt og effektivt at sætte en stopper for overpriserne,” siger Karin Riis-Jørgensen.
Moreover, the committee argued, "patient mobility cannot be allowed to grow unchecked without concurrent and clear rules governing liability for the provision of cross-border health services".
Hun ønsker, at de nye regler skal indeholde klare maksimumpriser, så det bliver let for forbrugerne at gennemskue, hvad det koster at bruge telefonen i udlandet, og hun mener at de nye regler kan skabe grobund for, at nye virksomheder kan blomstre op.
Noting how difficult it is to obtain clear and precise information on health care, the committee called for the creation of "single points of contact" for patients, health professionals and healthcare institutions.
”Jeg tror, at de nye regler vil kunne bane vej for nye teleselskaber, der specialiserer sig i feriekunderne, ”siger hun.
A place in the Services Directive for health?
Tror du, at det har spillet en rolle, at I som parlamentarikere dagligt har de negative konsekvenser af roaming tæt inde på livet?
Since "Treaty rules [...], as well as the jurisprudence of the ECJ, apply to health services, health service providers are fully entitled to establish and provide services in any Member State, following national and EU rules" says the report.
”Det tror jeg er en lidt forsimplet forklaring.
However, in adopting a paragraph drafted by Toine MANDERS (ALDE, NL), Members went one step further.
Selvom vi oplever det dagligt, er det jo noget, som langt de fleste mennesker kommer ud for, når de er på ferie eller har familie der rejser, og det lige så meget dem, vi repræsenterer,” siger Karin Riis-Jørgensen.
It was because of the adoption of Mr Manders' amendment, according to Evelyne GEBHARDT (PES, DE), that the rapporteur, Bernadette VERGNAUD (PES, FR), and the other Socialist MEPs voted against the final report.

Rent overfladevand fra 2015
Chemical pollution: clean surface water by 2015
I et nyt tiltag for at sikre rent vand i Europa skal Parlamentet stemme om en betænkning fra Miljøudvalget, som ønsker at stramme op på de eksisterende regler for forbedringen af kvaliteten af overfladevand, ligesom Parlamentet gjorde i forhold til badevand i 2005 og i forhold til grundvand i 2006.
In another step on the road to cleaning up Europe's water, Parliament will vote at first reading on a report by the Environment Committee which seeks to toughen up proposed rules on improving the quality of surface water, just as Parliament did in the cases of directives on bathing water in 2005 and groundwater in 2006.
Betænkningen af Anne LAPERROUZE (ALDE, FR) om kvaliteten af overfladevand (floder, søer, og kystområder) blev vedtaget i miljøudvalget med 50 stemmer for, ingen imod og en blank stemme.
The report by Anne LAPERROUZE (ALDE, FR) on the quality of surface water (rivers, lakes and coastal waters) was approved by the Environment Committee with 50 votes in favour, none against and one abstention.
Rammedirektivet om vand fra 2000 havde til hensigt at afføde en række 'datter-direktiver', hvoraf dette direktiv er et af dem.
The framework water directive of 2000 was intended to generate a number of daughter directives, of which this is one.
I forhold til de to tidligere direktiver om badevand og grundvand var MEP'erne nødt til at føre sagen helt til Forligsudvalget for at sikre, at den vigtige lovgivning blev ændret.
In the two previous cases - bathing water and groundwater - MEPs were obliged to go all the way to conciliation in order to amend the legislation in ways they believed were important.
Betænkningen om overfladevand er nu klar til førstebehandling i Parlamentet, og det er endnu for tidligt at sige, om den også vil finde vej til Forligsudvalget, men der var bred enighed blandt medlemmerne af Miljøudvalget om de vigtigste punkter, som skal forbedre forslaget fra Kommissionen.
It is too soon to say whether this will happen again with surface water but a broad consensus has emerged among members of the Environment Committee on the key points of the report, which substantially strengthens the measures proposed by the European Commission.
Flere stoffer skal kontrolleres
Almost 70 controlled substances
Kommissionen ønsker at fastsætte miljømæssige standarder for, hvor stor en mængde af 41 forurenende stoffer der må findes i overfladevand.
The Commission would like to fix environmental quality standards (EQS) for 41 pollutants likely to be found in surface water: pesticides, heavy metals and others.
Det er stoffer som pesticider, tungmetaller eller andre farlige kemiske stoffer, der udgør en særlig risiko for vandfauna og -flora samt menneskers sundhed.
These substances may endanger the survival of ecosystems, and via the food chain, human health itself.
Miljøudvalget har til denne liste tilføjet 28 stoffer.
The Environment Committee has added 28 substances to the proposed list of priority substances.
I henhold til dette direktiv skal de miljømæssige standarder være opfyldt fra 2015 og direkte udledning af forurenende stoffer i overfladevandet skal stoppes fra 2025.
Under the directive, the environmental quality standards are to be met by 2015 and direct discharges of pollutants into surface water must cease by 2025.

Parlamentet klar til at vedtage Daphne III programmet
Biodiversity: will our grandchildren still eat fish?
Efter uformelle forhandlinger med Parlamentet og Kommissionen har Rådet taget mange af Parlamentets ændringer fra førstebehandlingen.
In 2001 the EU Heads of State or Government decided "to halt the decline of biodiversity by 2010" and "to restore habitats and natural systems".
Den tredje fase af Daphne-programmet dækker perioden 2007-2013 og har et budget på 116.85 millioner Euro.
With three years to go to the target date, members of the Environment Committee voiced their "profound concern at the continuing loss of biodiversity" and stressed "the urgent need for an effort to meet commitments".
