Før onsdagens afstemning i Europa-Parlamentet var der en diskussion om det polske medlem Bronislaw Geremek, hvis mandat i Parlamentet er truet af den polske regering.
Parliament adopted a second-reading report heavily amending the Council's common position on a new regulation laying down common rules on checks, searches, surveillance, prohibited items, security patrols and other aspects of airport and aircraft security.
Ifølge formanden for Europa-Parlamentet Hans-Gert Pöttering, havde Parlamentet endnu ikke fået nogen officiel meddelelse om dette fra de polske myndigheder.
A key difference with the Council is who should pay for any extra security measures not required by the regulation.
Geremek er en politisk personlighed med høj agtelse, som altid har kæmpet for demokrati i sit land og for samlingen af Europa.
Regarding implementing measures, such as the decision by the Commission to ban liquids on board, the EP wants those to expire after six months.
Vi vil undersøge alle de juridiske muligheder der er, for at han kan fortsætte sit arbejde.
For the first time, European rules will cover security measures during flights, including in-flight security officers.
Ifølge vores oplysninger er den polske forfatningsdomstol i øjeblikket ved at se på den lov, som tilbagetrækningen af hr. Gemereks mandat bygger på.
It demands prior approval by the State of departure, by the State of arrival and, where applicable, by “any State which is over flown or where intermediate stops are made” .
Rettens afgørelse forventes inden for de næste uger.
Parliament also voted for the costs of security measures to be met by airline users and Member States, although if a Member State wants to impose even more stringent measures, it will have to cover the whole cost.
Jeg har bedt Parlamentets juridiske tjeneste om at undersøge den juridiske situation til bunds.
"This is a reasonable approach, taking into account the protection of airline customers', the industry's and the Member States' interests", Mr Costa said.
Formandskonferencen vil diskutere emnet yderligere på sit møde torsdag"
The report also stresses that security taxes and charges must be used “exclusively to meet airport or on board aircraft security costs”.
Debatten startede, da lederen af den liberale gruppe (ALDE), Graham Watson tog ordet: "Jeg tager ordet, fordi et medlem af min gruppe, hr. Geremek, står til at få sit mandat som medlem af Europa-Parlamentet trukket tilbage af sin egen regering med virkning fra den 19. april.
Once adopted, the regulation would apply two years after its entry into force, except for the detailed implementing measures for common basic standards (methods of screening, access control and other security controls, methods of performing aircraft security checks and aircraft security searches or prohibited articles), which would apply immediately from the date of entry into force.
Den polske regering bruger en lov, som er vedtaget for et par måneder siden, til at trække hans mandat tilbage, en lov som er under prøvelse i Polens forfatningsdomstol.
Thus, subject to agreement in conciliation, these detailed measures could take effect from late 2007, with the whole regulation applying as of 2009.
Han ønsker med rette at modsætte sig den heksejagt, som regeringen ønsker at sætte gang i.
Parliament backed measures put forward by the European Commission to protect Europe against maritime accidents and pollution.
Efter en længere applaus fortsatte Graham Watson: "Jeg vil spørge om tre ting, hr. formand.
This "third maritime safety package" seeks to promote healthy competition between shipping operators who comply with international rules on safety and compensation.
For det første vil jeg spørge om, hvorvidt Hr.
Maritime safety has long been a priority of Parliament.
Kaczynski, som mødtes med Hr.
The third package consists of seven reports.
Pöttering sidste uge, rejste dette spørgsmål med ham.
Two of these (on the obligations of flag states and civil liability of shipowners) were adopted by Parliament in March.
Andre gruppers ledere kom også med deres holdninger.
This draft directive seeks to improve the standard of safety inspections of ships in European ports by recasting and simplifying existing EU law.
Fra socialistgruppen sagde Martin Schultz (PSE, DE) "Til hr. Geremek vil jeg gerne sige, at måske deler vi ikke alle vores synspunkter, men hvad dette angår, kan du regne med ubegrænset solidaritet fra min gruppe og fra Parlamentet, når det kommer til at stå imod en regering i EU, der forfølger folk, som har kæmpet for demokratisk udvikling og frihed i deres eget land.
In a report by Dominique VLASTO (EPP-ED, FR) Parliament voted to tighten up the inspection regime, the criteria for selecting ships for inspection and the parameters for calculating a ship's risk profile.
Det er en skandale, at sådan et stort land bliver regeret af sådan en regering!
A database showing the risk of profiles of ships and indicating all ships due for inspection should be devised by the European Commission, say MEPs.
Jeg forventer, at Parlamentets formand i morgen fortæller Kaczynski-regeringen, at vi forventer, at den polske regering vil beskytte medlemmet af Parlamentet hr. Geremek, og at vi i fremtiden vil vurdere alt, hvad Polen gør, og hvordan det behandler denne kollega.
The House also expanded inspection regime should apply to vessels with a high risk profile and to passenger ships and oil and chemical tankers more than 12 years old.
Jeg vil foreslå, at hr. Pöttering bruger disse vendinger i morgen."
Pilots should have a bigger role in detecting any shortcomings on board.
Hvis en regering bruger stalinistiske metoder, har vi pligt til - uden tøven - at beskytte vores kollega.
Establishing a clear and precise legal framework on places of refuge for ships in distress is the main aim of this Commission proposal.
Vi står sammen i solidaritet"
3) Accident investigations
Francis Wurtz (GUE/NGL, FR) sagde: " Det sker, og det vil stadig ske i fremtiden, at jeg er politisk uenig med hr. Geremek.
The inability of some flag States to carry out technical investigations immediately after maritime disasters and incidents is a major concern in shipping circles.
Ikke desto mindre vil jeg udtrykke min dybe respekt for det politiske mod han har vist, og i min gruppes navn vil jeg udtrykke vores uforbeholdne solidaritet"
The goal of the investigations is not to determine civil or criminal liability but to establish the circumstances and to research the causes of maritime accidents in order to learn lessons and improve maritime safety.
Lederen af PPE-DE-gruppen, Joseph Daul, sagde: "Vi nyder alle politisk immunitet.
According to rapporteur Jaromír KOHLÍČEK (GUE/NGL, CZ), the independence of permanent investigation bodies is a key point.
Dette er et Parlamentet som står ved sine regler.
The European Parliament therefore adopted amendments to boost their independence and distinguish more clearly between technical and criminal investigations.
Indtil nu har der ikke været nogen anmodning om at hæve immuniteten.
It also highlighted the importance of an efficient early warning system and cooperation between Member States.
Vi støtter alle hr. Geremek, og vi står ved de retslige procedurer for alle medlemmer inklusive hr. Geremek".
An amendment was also adopted against the criminalisation of captain and crew of a ship after a major incident.
Næstformand for Parlamentet, Pierre Moscovici, som sad i formandsstolen under debatten sagde, at Parlamentet ikke var blevet orienteret om den polske regerings beslutning, og understregede, at Parlamentets rolle er at beskytte alle medlemmers mandat.
The European Parliament, in a report by Paolo COSTA (ALDE, IT), backs the draft directive, which would incorporate into EU law the 2002 Protocol to the Athens Convention, thereby introducing compulsory insurance to cover passengers in the event of shipping accidents and raising the compensation limits.
Da mange medlemmer ønskede at tage ordet foreslog Moscovici, at også de gruppeledere som endnu ikke havde talt, Brian Crowley (UEN, IRL) og Bruno Gollnisch (IST, FR) fik ordet.
It also includes a right for an advance payment in the event of death or injury of a passenger.
Bruno Gollnisch sagde: "Kernen i denne sag er at finde ud af til hvilken udstrækning hr. Geremek måske har været medskyldig i de stalinistiske aktiviteter i denne afskyelige totalitarisme.
Rapporteur Luis DE GRANDES PASCUAL (EPP-ED, ES) and the Parliament back the Commission's plans, which include the creation of an independent assessment committee to certify the quality system of the recognised organisations.
Næstformand, Pierre Moscovici afsluttede debatten med at sige, at formandskonference torsdag vil debattere emnet.
At the debate, German Parliamentary of State Katrin ROTH was confident that important parts of the third maritime package could be concluded under the German Presidency, also before July 2007.
"Jeg er sikker på, at det vil være et bredt flertal i Parlamentet, som støtter hr. Geremek og jeg vil hermed udtrykke min egen solidaritet med ham".
But given the controversy of some reports, many MEPs think that this co-decision procedure will be continued under the Portuguese presidency.

Immunitet og statut for EP-medlemmer
Croatia: good progress towards accession and some issues remain
Pöttering fortalte forsamlingen, at Formandskonferencen med stort flertal, dog ikke enstemmigt, torsdag formiddag havde bakket op om den pressemeddelelse, han havde udsendt onsdag.
Croatia's institutions and political parties should counteract the public's perception of the ICTY, say MEPs, who deplore the Government's offer to support the defence costs of Croatian army generals.
Formandskonferencen udtrykte også sin sympati og solidaritet med kollegaen Bronislaw Geremek.
They point out that thorough reform of the judicial system and police are requirements for Croatia's accession.

MEPs also propose to "recourse to the good offices of a third party if solutions cannot be found bilaterally to outstanding border disputes".

Skarp kritik af Polen i afstemning om homofobi
Intellectual property: pirates and counterfeiters to feel the full weight of criminal law
Efter en debat i Parlamentet onsdag vedtog MEP'erne torsdag et beslutningsforslag, der udtrykker bekymring over de seneste udtalelser fra den polske undervisningsminister, der i marts bebudede en lov, der skulle forbyde "homoseksuel propaganda" i skolerne.
The first EU directive aiming at harmonising national criminal law was backed by the European Parliament when it adopted on 25 April a first-reading report on legislation imposing criminal sanctions for the infringement of intellectual property rights.
Betænkningen, som blev vedtaget med 325 stemmer for, 124 stemmer imod og 150 undlod, ønsker, at Parlamentet sender en undersøgelsesdelegation til Polen, og opfordrer til en verdensomspændende afkriminalisering af homoseksualitet.
If ultimately adopted, the directive will oblige all Member States to regard any intentional infringement of an intellectual property right carried out on a commercial scale as a criminal offence.
Selv om Polen ikke er det eneste land i Europa, der har problemer med homofobi (medlemmerne nævner også diskriminationssager i Italien og Storbritannien), er det meste af betænkningen fokuseret på den seneste udvikling i Polen.
Parliament, in approving today the report by Nicola Zingaretti (PES, IT) by 374 votes to 278 with 17 abstentions, has backed the overall aim of the Commission proposal, while amending some of its provisions.
Og det var ikke kun den polske undervisningsministers tanker om en ny polsk lov, der skal forbyde homoseksuel propaganda i skolerne, der bekymrede MEP'erne.
The EP excluded patent rights from the scope of the directive, and decided that criminal sanctions should apply only to infringements deliberately carried out to obtain a commercial advantage.
På den positive side, glæder Parlamentet sig over at 'Gay pride'-optog ikke længere systematik forbydes.
At present maximum fines for violating intellectual property rights range from £586 in Greece to £67,000 in Holland.

MEP'erne tager temperaturen på overholdelse af menneskerettighederne
Statement by President Pöttering on the situation of Bronislaw Geremek
Torsdag vedtog Parlamentet med overvældende flertal sin årlige rapport om menneskerettigheder.
Mr Pöttering told the House that the EP's Conference of Presidents had approved, by a large majority although not unanimously, the press release issued by himself on this subject (see below).
Kina, Rusland, Sudan og Iran fik hårde ord med på vejen i betænkningen af Simon Coveney (PPE-DE, IRL).
The Conference of Presidents had also "stated its sympathy and solidarity with our colleague Bronislaw Geremek".
Overtrædelser af menneskerettighederne i verden Kinas menneskerettighedsrenommé vækker stadig ‘alvorlig bekymring’, og Parlamentet mener, at der skal mere fokus på disse bekymringer i forhold til forberedelserne ved OL i Beijing.
Vice-President Pierre Moscovici (PES, FR), who was chairing the plenary at the time, told the session that Parliament had so far received no official communication on the issue from the Polish authorities.
MEP'erne opfordrer også Rådet og Kommissionen til at rejse spørgsmålet om Tibet, ligesom det bliver understreget, at EU's handelsforbindelser med Kina, skal være betinget af menneskerettighedsreformer.
The debate began when the leader of the ALDE group, Graham WATSON (ALDE, UK) made a point of order: "I rise because a member of my group, Mr Geremek, is to have his mandate as a Member of the European Parliament revoked by his own government with effect from 19 April.
Også situationen i Iran giver anledning til MEP’ernes store bekymringer.
His refusal to sign in this case is on moral rather than political grounds.
MEP’erne udtrykker deres ’dybe bekymring over forværringen af menneskerettighedssituationen i Iran’, især den øgede undertrykkelse af menneskerettighedsforkæmpere, og opfordrer Rådet til at udtrykke sin bekymring over menneskerettighedssituationen i landet.
For the Socialists, Martin SCHULZ (PES, DE) said: " I'd like to say to Mr Geremek we don't share all of your views but on this point you can count on unlimited solidarity from all of our group and I'm sure of Parliament when its a matter of resisting a government in the European Union prosecuting people who have stood up for democratic development and the freedom of Poland in their own country.
Der er også kritik af Rusland og den russiske regering.
It is a scandal that such a great country and the government of Poland is acting in this way.
Parlamentet beklager, at EU kun har haft begrænset succes med at skabe en politisk forandringer ved at tage svære spørgsmål op som f.eks. situationen i Tjetjenien, behandling af menneskerettighedsforkæmpere og ytringsfrihed op.
I expect President of Parliament to tell the Kaczyński government tomorrow that we expect the Polish government to protect the Member of the European Parliament Mr Geremek and we shall measure everything Poland does in future by the way it deals with this colleague.
MEP'erne er stadig forfærdede over mordet på journalisten Anna Politkovskaja, og forventer, at Rusland vil tage yderligere foranstaltninger i forhold til at beskytte ytringsfriheden.
This Parliament has only one position to take: If a government uses Stalinist of fascist methods, we have a duty to protect our colleague without hesitation.
Kommissionen og Rådet bliver opfordret til at tage disse eksempler op på højeste plan og i forhold til den nye partnerskabsaftale med Rusland.
Nevertheless, I want to express my deep respect for the political courage that he has shown, and I want to express in the name of my group, my total solidarity. "
Rådet skal, ifølge betænkningen, aftale en plan om specifikke, målrettede sanktioner over for styret i Khartoum med en klar tidsfrist, hvis det ikke opfylder det internationale samfunds krav.
To date there has been no application for waiver, we all, including the EPP, support Mr Geremek, we stand by the legal procedures for all members including Mr Geremek."
Også situationen i Usbekistan, Tyrkiet, Myanmar, Palæstina, Libyen og Guantanamo bliver berørt, ligesom Parlamentet i skarpe vendinger kritiserer USA for ikke at have ratificeret Rom-statutten (grundlaget for den internationale straffedomstol) og for aktivt at forhindre andre lande i at gøre det.
The Chairman of the Legal Affairs Committee, Giuseppe GARGANI (EPP-ED, IT) said: "I would like to assure colleagues that when this matter comes before the committee, we will show great sensitivity as regards the independence of Parliament and we shall examine the correspondence and documents very carefully and we shall be able to stand up for the independence of Parliament and the possibility for members to be defended in their independence and freedom."
Tjekkiet, der som det eneste EU-land endnu ikke har ratificeret aftalen, bliver opfordret til at ratificere aftalen øjeblikkeligt.
Vice-President Pierre MOSCOVICI (PES, FR), in the chair for the voting session, said "We have not been notified of any Polish government decision which is indeed very questionable.
Ros til dansk embedsmand Parlamentet glæder sig over det ’glimrende arbejde’, som danskeren Michael Matthiessen har udført som personlig repræsentant under Javier Solana i forhold til menneskerettigheder i 2006.
The role of this Parliament is to protect the mandate of all its members.
Michael Matthiessen er nu Solanas repræsentant i forhold til parlamentariske spørgsmål.
I imagine that the legal affairs committee will be looking at the matter and will do what is necessary to guarantee the independence of Parliament."
Kritik af EU's indsats for menneskerettigheder Betænkningen forholder sig også kritisk til EU-institutionernes aktiviteter i forhold til menneskerettighederne.
With many more Members seeking the floor, Mr Moscovici called on the two political group leaders who had not yet spoken, Brian Crowley of the UEN group and Bruno Gollnisch of the ITS group.
Hvordan kan det være at muligt for Belarus (Hviderusland) at blive valgt ind i Styrelsesrådet i ILO (International Labour Organization), når fire store EU-lande er faste medlemmer?
Brian CROWLEY (UEN, IE) said: "It was unfair of you not to call on my vice-President Mr Kaminski who indicated he wished to speak on the issue.
Og hvordan kan det være, at EU's humanitære hjælp til Irak midlertidigt bliver suspenderet på trods af den katastrofale situation?
Whether you agree or disagree with the point he would have made is irrelevant - others were given the right to speak and he should have had that right too.
Heller ikke FN slipper for påtale, særligt i forhold til det nye Menneskerettighedsråd.
Some people in this house have a different interpretation to that by previous speakers.
Anbefalinger Betænkningen kommer endelig med en række anbefalinger til Rådet og Kommissionen.
I note that in the defence of Members of parliament, which is of no less importance to us than to you - your point of view is often based on variable geometry," referring to cases where he and other members of his group had faced legal action and " you referred to national sovereignty".
Parlamentet mener, at begge institutioner systematisk i de politiske dialoger skal tage spørgsmålet om situationen for menneskerettighedsforkæmpere op.
Pierre MOSCOVICI (PES, FR) concluded the discussion by saying: "The Conference of Presidents will discuss this matter tomorrow.
EU's indsats skal være mere proaktiv i forhold til at hjælpe de lokale menneskerettighedsforkæmpere, ligesom Rådet skal tage initiativ til at gøre det lettere for menneskerettighedsforkæmpere at få visum.
I am sure there will be a broad majority in the European Parliament in support of Mr Geremek and I intend to express my own solidarity with him now."

Parlamentet ønsker stop for dødsstraf
Poland urged to drop new law banning 'homosexual propaganda' in schools
Parlamentet gentog onsdag sin appel for at sætte en stopper for udførelsen af dødsstraf i verden, og ønsker at EU snarest skal forelægge FN's generalforsamling en resolution om et universelt moratorium for dødsstraf.
The resolution - adopted by 325 votes to 124, with 150 abstentions - calls for a fact-finding mission to be sent to Poland, for "worldwide de-criminalisation of homosexuality" and for the Commission to take Member States to court if they breach their EU obligations.
Et sådant moratorium, som vil stoppe udførelserne af dødsstraffene, er et strategisk skridt i retning af afskaffelsen af dødsstraf i alle lande, mener Parlamentet.
Although Poland is not the only country in Europe where homophobia is an issue - MEPs also mention cases of discrimination in Italy and the United Kingdom - most of the resolution focuses on recent developments in Poland.
Allerede den 1. februar i år opfordrede Parlamentet EU's formandskab til snarest at forelægge en resolution for FN's Generalforsamling, men da det endnu ikke er sket, gentager Parlamentet sin nu appel til formandskabet.
MEPs not only express concern about statements by Minister Giertych regarding a new law providing for the dismissal, fining or imprisonment of school directors, teachers and pupils in cases of gay rights' activism, they also note the Polish government's stated wish to promote similar laws at European level and the fact that the Polish Ombudsman for Children announced that she is preparing a list of jobs for which homosexuals are unfit.
Den erklæring om dødsstraf, som EU den 19. december 2006 forelagde FN's formandskab, blev oprindeligt underskrevet af 85 lande fra alle geografiske områder.
On the positive side, MEPs welcome the fact that gay pride events are no longer systematically banned in Poland.
Parlamentet opfordrer medlemslandene til at samle støtte fra tredjelande til denne erklæring, og mener, at Rådet og Kommissionen bør benytte enhver lejlighed til at støtte oprettelsen af regionale koalitioner til afskaffelse af dødsstraf.
Among its demands, Parliament calls for the "worldwide de-criminalisation of homosexuality" and reiterates its call to all Member States to bring forward legislation outlawing discrimination against same-sex couples.
Endelig opfordres EU's institutioner til at sammen med Europarådet at støtte verdensdagen mod dødsstraf ved fra 2007 at gøre den 10. oktober til europæisk dag mod dødsstraf.
Lastly, the Commission is urged to take Member States to Court if they violate their obligations under EU law.

Rapid response teams to tackle illegal immigration
De danske medlemmer af Parlamentet talte i salen om regionalstøtte, budgetter, sikkerheden til søs og forbindelserne til USA Mandag 23. april 2007
Parliament on 26 April approved a regulation providing for special rapid response teams to be set up to give technical and operational assistance in the case of major influxes of illegal migrants over the external borders of any EU Member State.
