C. whereas the mid-term review of the Lisbon agenda established the need to give it fresh impetus and to focus on growth and employment and urged the Member States to submit national reform programmes to promote growth and employment,
D. der henviser til, at tjenesteydelserne som den vigtigste vækstmotor i EU har en betydelig rolle med henblik på at forbedre det europæiske erhvervslivs konkurrenceevne,
D. whereas services, which are the main motor for growth in the EU, have an important role to play in improving the competitiveness of the economy of Europe,
E. der henviser til, at de liberale tjenesteydelser som en nøglesektor i det europæiske erhvervsliv og økonomi også skal omfattes af reformarbejdet,
E. whereas professional services must be included in the reform efforts, since they are a key sector of the economy of Europe,
F. der henviser til, at det i medfør af nærhedsprincippet er op til medlemsstaterne at beslutte, om de ønsker at regulere erhvervene direkte gennem nationale bestemmelser eller at tillade selvforvaltning gennem brancheorganisationer,
F. whereas, by virtue of the subsidiarity principle, it is up to Member States to decide whether they wish to regulate the professions directly by means of national rules or to allow self-regulation by professional bodies,
G. der henviser til, at Kommissionen i adskillige år har deltaget i en dialog med medlemsstaterne og brancheforeningerne om at afskaffe konkurrencemæssige forhindringer, hvilket har ført til liberaliseringstiltag og nye reformbestræbelser,
G. whereas for the last few years the Commission has been conducting a dialogue with Member States and professional bodies on the dismantling of barriers to competition, which has led to deregulation measures and new reform initiatives,
H. der henviser til, at medlemsstaterne og deres brancheforeninger for liberale tjenesteudbydere i overensstemmelse med subsidiaritetsprincippet har en stor betydning for fortsættelsen af reformarbejdet,
H. whereas, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity, Member States and national professional bodies for service providers have a prominent role to play in pursuing reform efforts,

I. whereas professional organisations, other professional bodies, consumer and user organisations and all relevant stakeholders need to be involved in the process in a balanced manner,
J. der henviser til, at en vis regulering er berettiget i betragtning af, at der er informationsasymmetrier mellem klienter og liberale tjenesteudbydere, at bestemte liberale tjenesteydelser kan betragtes som offentlige goder, og at leveringen af liberale tjenesteydelser kan være forbundet med eksterne virkninger,
J. whereas specific regulations are legitimate owing to the asymmetry of information between customers and service providers, the fact that certain professional services are deemed to provide public goods and the fact that the provision of professional services may be linked to externalities,
K. der henviser til, at den statusopgørelse inden for liberale tjenesteydelser, som i 2002/2003 blev bestilt af Kommissionen, ikke længere afspejler den aktuelle reguleringssituation i de enkelte medlemslande og derfor også vanskeliggør en evaluering af reformarbejdet,
K. whereas the stocktaking exercise of professional services ordered by the Commission in 2002/2003 no longer reflects the current state of regulation in the individual Member States and therefore stands in the way of an assessment of reform endeavours,

O. der henviser til, at der stadig er stor forskel på, i hvor høj grad det er lykkedes de forskellige liberale erhverv at åbne markedet,
O. whereas there are still substantial differences in the extent to which the various professional categories have succeeded in opening up the market,
P. der henviser til, at direktiv 2005/36/EF indeholder bestemmelser for, hvordan værtsmedlemsstaterne gør adgang til eller udøvelse af et lovreguleret erhverv på deres område betinget af særlige erhvervsmæssige kvalifikationer,
P. whereas Directive 2005/36/EC establishes rules according to which host Member States make access to or the pursuit of a regulated profession in its territory contingent upon the possession of specific professional qualifications,
9. mener, at det er vigtigt at forbedre de etiske standarder og forbrugerbeskyttelsen inden for de liberale erhverv, og at de liberale erhverv sammen med de berørte parter bør fastsætte en adfærdskodeks;
Considers it important to improve ethical standards and consumer protection in the field of professional services and supports the adoption of codes of conduct by professional service providers to be drawn up with the involvement of all relevant stakeholders;
I marts 2000 vedtog Det Europæiske Råd i Lissabon et reformprogram med det formål at gøre EU til den mest konkurrencedygtige og dynamiske videnbaserede økonomi inden 2010.
In March 2000 the Lisbon European Council adopted a reform programme aimed at making the EU the most competitive and dynamic knowledge-based economy in the world by 2010.
Med Kok-rapporten, som blev fremlagt i november 2004, understregedes vigtigheden af at liberalisere samtlige markeder og afskaffe unødvendig regulering for at styrke konkurrencen.
The Kok report submitted in November 2004 then highlighted the importance of deregulating all markets and eliminating unnecessary red tape in order to boost competition.
Ved en midtvejsrevision af Lissabon-dagsordenen og ved Rådets konklusioner blev det fastlagt på ny at sætte gang i dagsordenen og orientere den efter beskæftigelse og vækst.
The mid-term review of the Lisbon Agenda and the Council conclusions established the need to give fresh impetus to the Agenda and to focus it on growth and employment.
Medlemsstaterne blev opfordret til at fremlægge deres egen stats reformprogrammer til fremme af vækst og beskæftigelse.
Member States were urged to submit national reform programmes to promote growth and employment.
I lyset af den økonomiske betydning, som de liberale erhverv har i Europa, skal disse medinddrages i reformprocessen.
In view of the economic importance of the liberal professions in Europe, they must be involved in the process of reform.
Som det fremgår af den aktuelle meddelelse fra Kommissionen om "Liberale erhverv – mulighed for flere reformer" af 5. september 2005 for året 2001, har "tjenesteydelser for virksomheder" en omsætning på mere end 1.281 milliarder euro, det svarer til ca. 8 % af den samlede omsætning i EU.
As the current Commission communication ‘Professional Services - Scope for More Reform’ of 5.9.2005 for the year 2001 shows, ‘business services’ generate turnover in excess of EUR 1 281 billion, or approximately 8% of total turnover of the EU.
Dette gav en merværdi på 660 milliarder euro.
This generated added value of EUR 660 billion.
Ca. en tredjedel heraf tilskrives de liberale tjenesteydelser.
Approximately one third of this can be attributed to ‘professional services’.
Kommissionen har foruden det aktuelle dokument "Liberale erhverv – mulighed for flere reformer" af 5. september 2005 allerede i 2004 forfattet en meddelelse ("Rapport om konkurrencen inden for de liberale erhverv" af 9. februar 2004).
Before the Commission’s present communication ‘Professional Services - Scope for More Reform’ of 5.9.2005 the Commission had previously drawn up a communication in 2004 (Report on Competition in Professional Services of 9.2.2004).
Denne meddelelse fulgte efter en statusopgørelse, som fandt sted i årene 2002/2003 om reguleringspraksis inden for de liberale erhverv (undersøgelse foretaget af IHS).
This communication followed a stocktaking exercise conducted in 2002/2003 on regulatory practice in the field of liberal professions (IHS study).
I den nye meddelelse fra 2005 omfatter analysen for første gang alle medlemslande.
The new communication of 2005 for the first time evaluates all Member States.
Kommissionen beskæftigede sig under sit arbejde især med seks erhverv, nemlig advokater, notarer, ingeniører, arkitekter, apotekere og revisorer (inkl. skatterådgivere), og undersøgte hovedsagelig fem konkurrencebegrænsninger (faste priser, vejledende priser, reklameregler, adgangsbetingelser og regulering af virksomhedsstrukturen inkl. tværfagligt samarbejde).
In its actions, the Commission has focused mainly on six professions: lawyers, notaries, engineers, architects, pharmacists and accountants (including the profession of tax consultant) and essentially considered five restrictions on competition (fixed prices, recommended prices, advertising rules, entry restrictions and regulations governing business structure and multi-disciplinary practices.
I 2004 indledte Kommissionen en struktureret dialog med de europæiske brancheforeninger.
In 2004 the Commission initiated a structured dialogue with European professional bodies.
I den forbindelse konstaterede Kommissionen, at en accept af reformer afhænger af, hvor langt åbningen og reguleringen af det pågældende erhverv allerede er kommet.
It noted that a willingness to accept reform depended on the extent to which individual professions had opened up and been regulated.
De fleste fremskridt i de seneste år er efter Kommissionens opfattelse blevet opnået i de lande, som har et struktureret program for en konkurrencefremmende reguleringsreform.
It found that most progress over the last few years has been achieved in countries which had a structured programme of pro-competitive regulatory reform.
Kommissionen vurderer det som opmuntrende, at over en tredjedel af medlemsstaterne beretter om løbende analytiske arbejder.
The Commission considered it encouraging that over a third of Member States had reported that analyses were under way.
I de andre syv lande er reformprocessen kun begyndt meget langsomt.
In the other seven countries the reform process was very slow to get off the ground.
Kommissionen siger tydeligt i sin aktuelle meddelelse, at der i alle medlemsstater ses et yderligere behov for reformer, og at det forventes, at de regler, der forefindes på nationalt plan, også afskaffes dér.
In its current communication the Commission makes clear that the need for more reform had been established in all Member States and that it is expected that existing rules at national level will also be dismantled.
Kommissionen gør det klart, at der inden for de liberale tjenesteydelser fortsat ses en særlig reguleringsbeskyttelse for forbrugerne.
The Commission insists that special regulatory protection for consumers is still necessary in the field of professional services.
Som årsager nævnes informationsasymmetrier, muligheden for forekomst af "eksterne virkninger" og den delvist eksisterende egenskab for liberale tjenesteydelser som "offentlige goder".
The reasons given are: the asymmetry of information, the possibility of ‘externalities’ appearing and the fact that professional services were sometimes deemed to qualify as ‘public goods’.
Kommissionen kræver desuden af medlemsstaterne en analytisk undersøgelse af de eksisterende begrænsninger og ser især inden for reklamelovgivning eller inden for prisfastsættelse muligheder for på kort sigt at ophæve begrænsninger.
The Commission also urges Member States to carry out an analytical evaluation of existing restrictions and sees the possibility of lifting restrictions in the short term, particularly in the field of advertising law or fixed prices.
Som noget nyt i den aktuelle kommissionsmeddelelse skal fremhæves den foretagne analyse af markederne og konklusionen om, at reguleringen skal skabes i henseende til forskellige "forbrugerklasser".
A number of specific innovations in the Commission communication under review deserve special mention: the market analyses and the conclusion that regulations should vary according to categories of consumer.
Således ser Kommissionen et meget lille behov for regulering for de offentlige budgetter og store virksomheder.
The Commission therefore sees very little need for regulation in public administrations and large enterprises.
For de små og mellemstore virksomheder har Kommissionen ikke foretaget en endelig positionering, og for den normale forbruger ser Kommissionen et større behov for regulering.
For small and medium-sized undertakings, the Commission has not adopted a final position, while for ordinary consumers it acknowledges a greater need for regulation.
Med henblik på den yderligere reformproces har Kommissionen stillet i udsigt fortsat at ville påtage sig mæglerfunktionen.
For the further reform process the Commission has proposed that it should continue acting as intermediary.
Med den nuværende initiativbetænkning bør Parlamentet bidrage til at sagliggøre den nuværende debat om de liberale erhvervs bidrag til Lissabon-strategien og kræve en konstruktiv fortsættelse af reformprocessen.
This own-initiative report seeks to help set out objectively the issues involved in the ongoing debate on the contribution of the liberal professions to the Lisbon Strategy and calls for the reform process to be pursued in a constructive manner.
Det gælder især om at arbejde hen imod at få fordelene ved reformer i bestående systemer frem for forbrugeren og også for medlemmerne af de liberale erhverv samt at tilskynde til at inddrage dem i dialogen.
The objective is above all to identify the advantages of reforms in the current systems for consumers and members of the liberal professions themselves and to propose that they be included in the dialogue.
Parlamentet bør imidlertid i sin beslutning også gøre det klart, at der forventes et bidrag fra de liberale erhverv til at nå Lissabon-målene.
Parliament should also make clear in its resolution that it looks to the liberal professions to make a contribution to attaining the Lisbon objectives.
Ved udarbejdelsen af betænkningen måtte det konstateres, at der både mangler aktuelt talmateriale, som gør det muligt at udtale sig funderet om den økonomiske betydning af de liberale erhverv i EU, og økonomiske målsætninger for reformprocessen.
In drawing up this report it was found that up-to-date data, as a basis for well-founded statements on the economic importance of the liberal professions in the EU, and economic objectives for the reform process were lacking.
Oplysninger for hele Europa er baseret på fremskrivninger af flere år gamle undersøgelser eller på den såkaldte IHS-undersøgelse.
Europe-wide data are based on estimates derived from surveys which are a few years old or the so-called IHS study.
Mens fremskrivningen er problematisk på grund af de ændrede konkurrenceforhold, har IHS-undersøgelsen på grund af begrænsningen i de undersøgte lande og erhverv samt i udarbejdelsesperioden, som går tre og et halvt år tilbage, ikke stor relevans.
While the estimates are problematic owing to the changed competitive environment, the IHS study lacks comprehensive validity because it is limited to the States and professions examined and was drawn up three and a half years ago.
Det forhold, at der mangler målsætninger (forventede vækst- og beskæftigelseseffekter) for en korrekt krævet systematisk konkurrencefremmende reform af sektoren, gør det vanskeligt at skabe det nødvendige positive reformklima.
The absence of objectives (expected growth and employment consequences) for the systematic pro-competitive reform of the sector - this is what the Commission calls for, and rightly so - makes it difficult to create the necessary positive reform climate.
Kommissionens fremtidige undersøgelser bør tage højde for denne problematik og finde en løsning.
Future Commission surveys should take this problem into account and look for remedies.
Det skal blive muligt at få en klar økonomisk afvejning mellem risici og chancer ved en liberalisering og især af prissystemer (bindende faste priser, prissystemer, markedspriser).
It must be possible to strike a clear economic balance between risks and opportunities for deregulation, particularly of price systems (binding fixed prices, price systems and market prices).
Med det fremlagte udkast til betænkning opfordres der også til en udvidelse af kommissionsanalysen med hensyn til det forskellige reguleringsbehov for de forskellige forbrugergrupper.
This draft report also proposes that the scope of the Commission analysis be broadened to accommodate the different regulatory requirements of individual consumer groups.
Da Kommissionen hidtil ikke har kunnet foretage en vurdering for de små og mellemstore virksomheder og 99 % af alle virksomheder i EU betragtes som små og mellemstore virksomheder, er relevansen stadig ikke så stor.
The fact that the Commission cannot yet provide any estimate for small and medium-sized enterprises and 99% of EU enterprises in the EU are considered SMEs lessens the impact of this communication.
Desuden vurderes det som problematisk, at den offentlige sektor betragtes som en homogen enhed.
The Commission’s decision to treat the public sector as a homogenous unit is also problematic.
I Tyskland foretages for eksempel 50 % af de offentlige tildelinger på kommunalt plan af delvist meget små områdeenheder, hvor reguleringsbeskyttelsen ikke kan ligestilles med beskyttelsen i et ministerium.
In Germany for instance 50% of public spending at communal level is undertaken in part by very small regional units which do not need the same regulatory protection as a ministry.
Det fremhæves også i betænkningen, at Parlamentet anerkender den i mange medlemslande traditionelle selvforvaltning for de liberale erhverv.
The report also seeks to highlight the fact that Parliament recognises the self-regulation of the liberal professions which is traditional in many Member States.
Der stilles imidlertid krav om gennemsigtighed, effektivitet, konsekvensvurdering og kontrol til selvforvaltningen.
However, this self-regulation must be transparent, efficient, anticipate consequences and carry out controls.
Medlemsstater, som ikke har etableret en selvforvaltning for de liberale erhverv, skal udtrykkeligt ikke opfordres til at skulle skifte system.
Member States where there is no self-regulation of the liberal professions should specifically not be called upon to change their system.
Betænkningen skal desuden tilskynde medlemsstaterne til at drage fordel af de empiriske erfaringer, som andre medlemsstater allerede har høstet i reformprocessen inden for de liberale tjenesteydelser.
The report also seeks to encourage Member States to take advantage of the practical experience of other Member States in the process of reforming professional services.
Det forskellige reformtempo i EU inden for de liberale erhverv og de derved allerede opnåede erfaringer kan hjælpe til at udligne hidtidige forsinkelser.
The fact that the pace of reform in the field of the liberal professions varies from one Member State to another and experience to date can help offset the delays that have occurred so far.
Hvad angår reklame og tværfagligt samarbejde (samarbejdsmuligheder), er der i mange medlemsstater fortsat store begrænsninger.
As regards the fields of advertising and interdisciplinary cooperation (scope for cooperation), there are still considerable restrictions in many Member States.
Som begrundelse for begrænsningen af samarbejdsmulighederne anføres generelt en sikring af fagetiske standarder.
In general, the reason given for restricting the scope of cooperation is the need to ensure professional ethical standards.
Netop ved et samarbejde omkring liberale tjenesteydelser kan denne begrundelse ikke retfærdiggøres, da de alle er underlagt fagetiske standarder.
In the specific case of cooperation in the professional services sector, this argument is difficult to accept since they are all subject to professional ethical standards.
Til sikring af disse standarder findes der andre instrumenter, som griber mindre stærkt ind i konkurrencen end forbuddet mod samarbejde.
There are other instruments for safeguarding the standards which have less impact on competition than banning cooperation.
Parlamentet bør gøre det klart, at en reform på dette plan netop har betydning for en styrkelse af små og mellemstore virksomheder.
Parliament should make clear that reform at this level is particularly important for strengthening small and medium-sized enterprises.
Hvad angår reklameområdet, foreligger der allerede i forskellige medlemsstater erfaringer med afskaffelse af regulering.
As regards advertising, various Member States have experience in dismantling regulations.
Parlamentet bør gøre det tydeligt, at det forventer, at der hurtigt opnås klarhed over effekterne af en lempelse af reklamebegrænsningerne.
Parliament should make clear that it expects that the effects of a loosening of restrictions on advertising be discussed very shortly.
Medlemsstaternes erfaringer med en lempelse indikerer, at andre medlemslande ophæver de fleste begrænsninger på reklameområdet.
The experiences of Member States with the relaxation of such restrictions indicate that other Member States could lift most of their restrictions in the field of advertising.
Europa-Parlamentet har tillid til, at de foreslåede tiltag stimulerer og sætter gang i den systematiske reformproces.
The European Parliament is confident that the proposed measures will revive and drive forward the systematic process of reform.
