(5) Det er beklageligt, at det kompromis, der blev udarbejdet af konventet, ikke blev accepteret, og at fristerne for de beslutninger, der blev truffet i 2004, blev forlænget, men samtidig skal det påpeges, at den endelige løsning blev opnået efter indædt diskussion mellem medlemsstaterne, hvis formål til tider var uklart: Beregningen af hvert enkelt lands procentpoint og dermed vægt inden for stemmesystemet fjernede fokus fra den kendsgerning, at der i praksis ikke eksisterer en opdeling mellem alle de "store" stater på den ene side og alle de "små" stater på den anden side?
(5) Although the abandonment of the compromise arrived at by the Convention and the postponement of the implementation of the decisions taken in 2004 is regrettable, it should be borne in mind that the solution ultimately adopted was chosen after a heated discussion among the Member States, the purpose of which was not always entirely clear: the impact of a few percentage points more or less on the relative degree of influence of each Member State in the voting system obscured the fact that in reality divisions between all the 'large' Member States on the one hand and all the 'small' Member States on the other hardly ever emerge.
Ofte har formålet med et og samme tiltag være selvmodsigende, såsom at bevare egne muligheder for blokering og samtidig reducere andre staters mulighed for blokering.
Often, the same action was intended to pursue contradictory objectives simultaneously, such as preserving a State's own opportunities to block decisions whilst attempting to reduce the scope for others to do so.
I lyset af den nuværende politiske virkelighed kan Parlamentet acceptere den aftale, som stats- og regeringscheferne er nået frem til, uden dog at lægge skjul på sine forbehold.
Political realities being what they are, however, Parliament can accept the agreement reached between the Heads of State and of Government, albeit without concealing its disappointments.
(6) Uanset hvilken beslutningsmetode der er tale om, skal den være anvendelig.
(6) Whatever the method by which decisions are taken, it must be applicable.
Dette er årsagen til betydningen af spørgsmålet om anvendelsesområdet for kvalificeret flertal.
Hence the importance of the question of the scope of qualified majority voting.
Der kræves dog stadig enstemmighed i 72 tilfælde
On the other hand, unanimity is still required in 72 cases
Den nye traktat har på dette område praktisk taget overtaget alle de ændringer, der optrådte i forfatningen.
In that respect, the new Treaty incorporates practically all the changes provided for in the Constitution.
De eneste undtagelser vedrører traktaten om tiltrædelse af den europæiske menneskerettighedskonvention, hvor der kræves enstemmighed (kvalificeret flertal i forfatningen) og etableringen af et nyt retsgrundlag for fastlæggelsen af regler vedrørende behandlingen af personoplysninger inden for rammerne af FUSP (artikel 39 TEU).
The only exceptions concern the agreement on accession to the European Convention on Human Rights, which will have to be adopted unanimously (QMV under the Constitution), and the creation of a new legal basis for the introduction of rules governing the processing of personal data under the CFSP (Article 39 of the TEU).
Selv om det efter alt at dømme kun drejer sig om at fastlægge fælles regler for udøvelsen af en kompetence, der udelukkende henhører under medlemsstaterne (alle aspekter af Unionens kompetence inden for databeskyttelse henhører under artikel 16 TEUF), er det beklageligt, at Parlamentet ikke er knyttet til denne procedure, og at der ikke er givet nogen udtrykkelig reference til Domstolens kontrolbeføjelse. .
Although, according to the most generous interpretation, this involves nothing more than the establishment of joint rules to govern the exercise of a competence which rests solely with the Member States (everything covered by the Union's competence in the area of the protection of personal data is governed by Article 16 of the TFEU), it is regrettable that Parliament should not be involved in this procedure and that no explicit reference should have been made to legal review by the Court of Justice. .
Selv om den globale tendens kan bedømmes som positiv, må det beklages, at man i visse tilfælde ikke er gået videre.
Whilst the general thrust of the changes can only be regarded as very positive, it is regrettable that the opportunity was not taken to do more in certain cases.
(7) En anden væsentlig forbedring, der indføres med Lissabontraktaten, for så vidt angår gennemsigtighed, er bestemmelsen om, at Rådets sammensætninger opdeles afhængigt af, om Rådet udøver sin lovgivende funktion eller andre funktioner, med den tilføjelse, at Rådets samlinger er offentlige, når det forhandler og stemmer om udkast til lovgivningsmæssige retsakter.
(7) Another major improvement made by the Treaty of Lisbon in terms of transparency is the requirement for meetings of the various configurations of the Council to be divided into two parts, depending on whether the Council is acting in a legislative capacity or in other ways, with the corollary that, when it deliberates or votes on legislative acts, the Council meets in public.
Selv om det bemærkes, at medlemsstaterne ikke har fulgt konventets forslag om at oprette et reelt selvstændigt lovgivende råd, vurderes det, at det essentielle aspekt i dette forslag, nemlig sikring af offentlighed og gennemsigtighed i Rådets lovgivende arbejde, bevares.
Although the Member States did not accept the Convention's proposal that a genuinely separate Legislative Council should be created, it may be considered that the essential aspect of this proposal, which was that meetings should be held in public and that the Council's legislative work should be transparent, has been preserved.
(8) For så vidt angår Rådets sammensætning og funktion, er den væsentligste fornyelse oprettelsen af Rådet for Udenrigsanliggender, som har den højtstående repræsentant/næstformand i Kommissionen som formand.
(8) As regards the configurations and functioning of the Council, the main novelty is the creation of an autonomous Foreign Affairs Council, to be chaired by the High Representative.
Rådet for Udenrigsanliggender og Rådet for Almindelige Anliggender er de eneste to sammensætninger, der fastlægges i den nye traktat, som overlader det til Det Europæiske Råd at træffe afgørelse om de øvrige rådssammensætninger med kvalificeret flertal.
This and the General Affairs Council are the only two configurations of the Council whose existence is provided for by the new Treaty, which leaves it to the European Council to decide by a qualified majority on the creation of other configurations.
(9) Indsatsen for at ændre det nuværende system med et roterende formandskab for Rådet, således at der sikres en større gennemsigtighed, sammenhæng og kontinuitet i dets arbejde, har haft blandede konsekvenser.
(9) The efforts to modify the existing system of rotating Presidencies of the Council in order to raise the profile and enhance the consistency and continuity of its work have had somewhat mixed results: the Member States departed from the Convention's proposal, ultimately adopting the principle of equal rotation within a system of team Presidencies determined by a decision of the European Council, acting by a qualified majority, and it is not possible to make out in advance exactly what the real benefits of this will be
Medlemsstaterne har faktisk lagt afstand til konventets forslag, idet de i sidste ende har fastholdt princippet om en ligelig rotation på betingelser fastsat ved en europæisk afgørelse truffet af Det Europæiske Råd, som træffer afgørelse med kvalificeret flertal.
A declaration (No 9) annexed to the Treaty sets out the political agreement reached among the Member States on a decision providing for the establishment of Presidency teams from three Member States for periods of 18 months.
Kun Rådet for Udenrigsanliggender (og Det Europæiske Råd) har en fast formand.
Only the Foreign Affairs Council (and the European Council) will have a stable presidency.
(1) Et andet institutionelt spørgsmål, som var i centrum for drøftelserne, var spørgsmålet om Kommissionens sammensætning.
(1) Another of the institutional questions which were at the centre of debate was the composition of the Commission.
Den valgte løsning, som gennemføres over tid, fjerner sig fra konventets forslag, men stemmer bedre overens med den politiske virkelighed og kan vurderes som positiv: Den giver mulighed for at respektere de nye medlemsstaters ønske om at være repræsenteret i Kommissionen i de første år efter deres tiltrædelse, idet der samtidig inden for en overskuelig fremtid (2014) sker en nødvendig reduktion af antallet af kommissærer (til to tredjedele af antallet af medlemsstater, hvilket med 27 medlemsstater betyder en reduktion af det nuværende antal kommissærer).
The solution ultimately opted for, with its implementation deferred, departed from the Convention's proposal, but it corresponds more closely with political reality and may be considered positive: it makes it possible to respect the new Member States' aspiration to be represented in the Commission during the first years after their accession, whilst providing, after a reasonable lapse of time (2014), for the vital reduction in the number of Commissioners (to 2/3 of the number of Member States, which - in a 27-member EU - would already mean that there were fewer Commissioners than at present).
Denne løsning, som er baseret på et rotationssystem, der skal sikre lighed mellem medlemsstaterne og afspejle Unionens demografiske og geografiske sammensætning, giver mulighed for at holde Kommissionens størrelse på et acceptabelt niveau.
Based on a rotation system which preserves equality between Member States (and which must reflect the demographic and geographical make-up of the Union), this solution will thus make it possible to keep the size of the Commission within acceptable limits.
Frekvensen af den periode, hvor hver medlemsstat ikke udpeger en kommissær, bliver en ud af tre mandatperioder.
The frequency of the period when any given Member State will not be represented by a Commissioner will be once in every three terms.
(2) Lissabontraktaten sikrer også væsentlige fremskridt, for så vidt angår valget af formanden for Kommissionen, som fremover vælges af Europa-Parlamentet på forslag af Det Europæiske Råd, som træffer afgørelse med kvalificeret flertal.
(2) The Treaty of Lisbon also makes important progress regarding the appointment of the President of the Commission, who is in future to be elected by the European Parliament on a proposal from the European Council, acting by a qualified majority.
Dette styrker Kommissionens politiske legitimitet yderligere, især eftersom Det Europæiske Råd skal tage hensyn til resultaterne af valget til Europa-Parlamentet og foretage "passende høringer", inden det udpeger sin kandidat.
This is a further step in the process of imparting political legitimacy to the Commission, particularly as the European Council is required to take account of the results of the elections to the European Parliament and hold ‘appropriate consultations’ before designating its candidate.
Fremover skal hele Kommissionen, formanden, EU-udenrigsministeren, som udnævnes i henhold til en særlig procedure ( jf. nedenfor ), og Kommissionens medlemmer, der vælges af Rådet i samarbejde med formanden, godkendes samlet ved en afstemning i Europa-Parlamentet
Afterwards, the whole Commission, the President, the High Representative, who is appointed by means of a special procedure (see below), and the Commissioners, selected by the Council in agreement with the President-designate, will require a vote of approval en bloc by the European Parliament
Det skal bemærkes, at regeringskonferencen i 2004 ikke fulgte konventets forslag, som gik ud på, at hver medlemsstats regering skulle opstille en liste med tre personer, hvorfra formanden udpeger en person.
It may be noted that the 2004 IGC did not accept the Convention's proposal that the government of each Member State should submit a list of three names from which the President would choose the Commissioner proposed by the Member State.
Det er desuden beklageligt, at regeringskonferencen 2004 ikke fastholdt Kommissionens forslag om, at indsættelsen af Kommissionen skulle afsluttes med en politisk meget symbolsk afstemning i Europa-Parlamentet, og at den tilføjede endnu en fase i proceduren, som afsluttedes ved, at Kommissionen skulle af Det Europæiske Råd, der ville træffe afgørelse med kvalificeret flertal .
Also, it is regrettable that the 2004 IGC did not accept the Commission's proposal that the investiture of the Commission should conclude with the vote by the European Parliament, which is politically highly symbolic, but added a stage to the procedure, which is now to conclude with the appointment of the Commission by the European Council, acting by a qualified majority. .
Hele denne procedure viser på en synlig måde offentligheden, at Kommissionen er en udøvende myndighed af politisk karakter, der har behov for Parlamentets tillid, og ikke en forsamling af "anonyme og ukontrollerede bureaukrater", således som visse iagttagere påstår.
This procedure as a whole should make it clear to public opinion that the Commission is a political executive which needs Parliament's confidence, and not just a group of 'anonymous and unaccountable bureaucrats', as some claim.
(3) Det skal ligeledes bemærkes, at styrkelsen af den rolle, som formanden for Kommissionen spiller, navnlig for så vidt angår Kommissionens interne organisation og retten til at anmode om, at et medlem træder tilbage, går i retning af en øget effektivitet i Kommissionen.
(3) The enhanced role of the President of the Commission should also be noted, particularly as regards the internal organisation of the Commission and the right to demand the resignation of a Commissioner, which should improve the efficiency of the Commission.
Unionens højtstående repræsentant for udenrigsanliggender og sikkerhedspolitik/næstformand i Kommissionen
Vice-President of the Commission/High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy
(1) En af de væsentligste institutionelle fornyelser i Lissabontraktaten er oprettelsen af posten som Unionens højtstående repræsentant for udenrigsanliggender og sikkerhedspolitik, der samler de to eksisterende poster som henholdsvis højtstående repræsentant for den fælles udenrigs- og sikkerhedspolitik og kommissær for eksterne forbindelser i én og samme person.
(1) One of the main institutional innovations of the Treaty of Lisbon is the creation of the post of High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy (merging in a single post the pre-existing posts of High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy and Commissioner responsible for external relations).
Denne nyskabelse er i tråd med målsætningen om at sikre sammenhæng og synlighed i hele Unionens optræden udadtil.
This innovation corresponds to the objective of ensuring that all the external actions of the EU are consistent and have a high profile.
Den højtstående repræsentant har som ansvarlig for Unionens fælles udenrigs- og sikkerhedspolitik to institutionelle "kasketter": dels er han formand for Rådet for Udenrigsanliggender, hvor han stiller forslag og sikrer gennemførelsen af Rådets beslutninger; dels er han næstformand i Kommissionen, hvor han varetager de ansvarsområder, Kommissionen har med hensyn til eksterne forbindelser, og påser, at der er sammenhæng i Unionens optræden udadtil.
Institutionally, the High Representative will wear two 'hats': he or she will be responsible for conducting the EU's Common Foreign and Security Policy, for which purpose he or she will chair the Foreign Affairs Council, present proposals and implement Council decisions, while at the same time he or she will be a Vice-President of the Commission, taking on that institution's responsibilities in the field of external relations and coordinating all aspects of the EU's external action.
Han bistås af en europæisk tjeneste for EU’s optræden udadtil, der omfatter personale fra Kommissionen, Rådets generalsekretariat og de nationale diplomatiske tjenester, og som stiftes ved Rådets afgørelse efter udtalelse fra Parlamentet og Kommissionens godkendelse.
He or she will be assisted by a European External Action Service composed of officials from the Commission, the General Secretariat of the Council of Ministers and national diplomatic services, which is to be set up by a decision of the Council after consulting the European Parliament and obtaining the approval of the Commission.
Som medlem af Kommissionen skal han ligeledes undergives Europa-Parlamentets godkendelse, og medlemmerne af Kommissionen nedlægger samlet deres hverv, såfremt Europa-Parlamentet vedtager et mistillidsvotum
As a member of the Commission, his or her appointment must also be approved by the European Parliament when it votes on the investiture of the Commission as a whole, and if the Commission resigns en bloc following a motion of censure by the European Parliament, this also applies to him or her
Overgangen til den nye institutionelle ordning, der følger af oprettelsen af posten som højtstående repræsentant, skabte visse problemer i forhandlingernes sidste fase, hvor Parlamentet ønskede at sikre, at alle dets rettigheder ville være gældende, såvel i forbindelse med en foreløbig udnævnelse lige efter traktatens ikrafttrædelse (berammet til 1. januar 2009) som ved udnævnelsen af den nye højtstående repræsentant i forbindelse med nedsættelsen af den nye Kommission i november 2009, lige efter valget til Europa-Parlamentet.
The transition to the new institutional situation resulting from the creation of the office of High Representative gave rise to a number of problems in the final days of the negotiations, with the EP endeavouring to safeguard its full prerogatives under two possible scenarios, either that of a temporary appointment immediately after the entry into force of the Treaty (scheduled for 1 January 2009), or the appointment of the new High Representative when the next Commission is constituted, in November 2009, following the European elections.
Det Europæiske Råd vedtog på sit møde i Lissabon en erklæring (nr. 12), der imødekommer Parlamentet. .
A declaration (No 12) adopted at the Lisbon European Council guarantees Parliament’s rights. .
(3) Disse bestemmelser svarer hovedsagelig til det, som Parlamentet længe har forsvaret: Den højtstående repræsentant vil kunne styrke sammenhængen og effektiviteten i Unionens optræden udadtil, fremme oprettelsen af en reel fælles udenrigspolitik og øge Unionens synlighed på internationalt niveau ved at give den et "ansigt" udadtil.
(3) These provisions essentially correspond to what the European Parliament had long been calling for: the High Representative will indeed be able to increase the coherence and efficiency of the Union's international action, promote the emergence of a genuine common foreign policy and raise the Union's international profile by giving it a 'face'.
Den højtstående repræsentants tredobbelte politiske ansvarlighed over for Europa-Parlamentet, Rådet og formanden for Kommissionen er et positivt element.
The threefold political accountability of the High Representative, to the European Parliament, the Council and the President of the Commission, is positive.
Der er imidlertid fortsat mulighed for konflikter mellem den højtstående repræsentant og formanden for Kommissionen eller formanden for Det Europæiske Råd, og hans dobbelte status kan medføre, at der opstår en loyalitetskonflikt i forhold til Rådet og Kommissionen.
But potential conflicts between the High Representative and the President of the Commission or the President of the European Council remain possible, and his or her hybrid status may give rise to conflicts of loyalty between the Council and Commission.
Den Europæiske Unions Domstol
The Court of Justice of the European Union
En sådan forordning vedtages af Parlamentet og Rådet efter den almindelige lovgivningsprocedure, enten efter forslag fra Kommissionen og høring af Domstolen eller efter anmodning fra Domstolen og høring af Kommissionen. .
Adopted by Parliament and the Council by means of the ordinary legislative procedure, either on a proposal from the Commission and after consulting the Court of Justice, or at the request of the Court of Justice and after consulting the Commission. .
Dette udvalg skal bestå af syv personer (tidligere medlemmer af Domstolen, medlemmer af de højeste nationale retter og jurister, hvis faglige kvalifikationer er almindeligt anerkendt), heraf én foreslået af Europa-Parlamentet.
This committee will have seven members (former Members of the Court of Justice or national supreme courts and jurist with acknowledged expertise), including one proposed by Parliament.
Den Europæiske Unions Domstol prøver lovligheden af retsakter vedtaget af Det Europæiske Råd og agenturerne.
In future, acts of the European Council and of the agencies will be subject to judicial review to ensure their legality.
Endelig har Den Europæiske Unions Domstol, selv om den ikke har nogen kompetence vedrørende den fælles udenrigs- og sikkerhedspolitik, kompetence til at prøve lovligheden af europæiske afgørelser om restriktive foranstaltninger over for fysiske eller juridiske personer.
Finally, although the acts adopted in the field of the common foreign and security policy cannot in themselves be the subject of legal proceedings, the Court nonetheless has jurisdiction to consider the legality of European decisions providing for restrictive measures against legal and natural persons.
Domstolen kan ligeledes tage stilling til, om en foranstaltning falder ind under anvendelsesområdet for FUSP eller henhører under Unionens øvrige kompetenceområder.
It may also rule whether a measure falls within the scope of the CFSP or is covered by other Union competences.
(1) Bestemmelserne om Den Europæiske Centralbank (som ophøjes til EU-institution) og Revisionsretten er stort set uændrede, dog er der en nyskabelse i forhold til forfatningen, fordi de to institutioner nu optræder på listen over institutioner i den nye artikel 13 i den ændrede TEU.
(1) The provisions concerning the European Central Bank (elevated to the rank of an institution of the Union) and the Court of Auditors remain virtually unchanged, although one innovation by comparison with the Constitution is that these two institutions now appear in the list of institutions included in the new Article 13 of the amended TEU.
Det skal desuden bemærkes, at medlemmerne af ECB’s direktion fremover udnævnes af Det Europæiske Råd med kvalificeret flertal og ikke, som tidligere, enstemmigt.
Moreover, it may be noted that the members of the Bank's Executive Board are in future to be appointed by the Council acting by a qualified majority and no longer unanimously.
(2) For så vidt angår Regionsudvalge t og Det Økonomiske og Sociale Udvalg bemærkes det, at Regionsudvalget opnår ret til at anlægge sager om krænkelse af nærhedsprincippet i forbindelse med retsakter, hvis vedtagelse det ifølge Lissabontraktaten skal høres om.
(2) As regards the Committee of the Regions and the Economic and Social Committee , the Committee of the Regions acquires the right to bring an action on grounds of a violation of the principle of subsidiarity by a legislative act for the adoption of which the Treaty of Lisbon requires it to be consulted.
