Endvidere er det centralt, at de mindst udviklede lande får eftergivet deres gæld , da de stærkest forgældede landes udgifter til gældsafvikling udgør en fjerdedel af deres eksportindtægter.
They are based on a gentleman's agreement by which Member States have committed themselves to respect the concepts and rules laid down in a common methodology, together with a calendar for the transmission of data.

Ordfører: John BOWIS (PPE-DE, UK)
Procedure : Codecision (1st reading)
Den engelske PPE’er John BOWIS har på vegne af Udvalget om Udvikling og Samarbejde, udarbejdet en betænkning vedrørende støtte til sundhed og bekæmpelse af fattigdom i udviklingslandene.
Lisi GRÖNER (PES, D), for the Women's Rights Committee, is putting forward a draft resolution on the second stage of the Daphne programme (2004 - 2008) to prevent violence against children, young people and women and to protect victims and groups at risk.
I betænkningen understreges det bl.a., at bekæmpelse af fattigdom skal bidrage til at forbedre den generelle sundhedstilstand i udviklingslandene: ”velvære og velfærd er indbyrdes afhængige” .
Daphne II is a follow-up to the current programme, which expires at the end of 2003.
Støtten skal omfatte udviklingsstøtte indenfor uddannelse, personale og knowhow, således at de involverede lande bedre bliver i stand til selv at løse problemerne.
Daphne I, which had a budget of € 20m for 2000 - 2003, was unable to keep pace with the increase in violence and the imminent accession of new countries to the EU.
Sygdom I forhold til børn i Europa, har børn i udviklingslandene ti gange større risiko for at dø af en sygdom, der kan forebygges med en vaccine.
For this reason the Commission proposed a reference figure of €41m for Daphne II for 2004 - 2008, with a possible additional amount for the period 2004 - 2006 in view of enlargement.
Samtidig har AIDS gjort 10 mio. børn forældreløse.
This would bring the total reference figure up to € 49.2m.
Den nuværende protektionisme medfører, at udviklingslande afskæres fra ca. 100 mia. USD , hvilket langt overstiger det samlede beløb, der gives i udviklingsbistand.
Mrs Gröner believes this amount will not be nearly enough to enable a larger number of NGOs to take part in the programme and to meet the needs of the new Member States.
Sundhed I betænkningen fremhæves, at det ikke nødvendigvis er store pengesummer, der gør en forskel, men at det derimod er vigtigt at ændre anvendelsen af ressourcerne .
However, her proposal to increase the programme's budget to € 65 million was not supported by most members of her committee.
Samtidig understreges det, at fattigdom og sundhed ikke blot er et problem, der vedrører medicin og pleje, men at det deri- mod involverer en indsats indenfor bl.a. ernæring, sikker vandforsyning, boligforhold, undervisning og miljø.
They are putting forward instead an amendment setting the budget at €50m for 2004 - 2008, a figure which the Commission had said it could accept.
Endvidere skal Europa stoppe med at tappe udviklingslande for lægelige kvalifikationer: ifølge WHO mister udviklingslandene årligt 63.000 læger og modtager kun 1.300 – der er behov for et program der indeholder flere tiltag og ikke blot flotte ord.
This will enable Daphne II to start up in 2004 and avoid a conflict with the Council.
Ordfører: Richard HOWITT (PSE, UK)
Rosa MIGUÈLEZ RAMOS (PES, E)
1,4 mia. EUR af Europas officielle udviklingsbistand forvaltes af ikke-statslige aktører (ngo’er), men EU-Kommissionens egne tal viser, at dette kun udgør 3 % af udviklingsbistanden til Latinamerika og 2 % til Asien.
The own-initiative draft resolution drawn up by Rosa MIGUÈLEZ RAMOS (PES, E) is critical of the fourth fisheries protocol between the EU and Greenland, which is currently undergoing a mid-term review.
I en betænkning af den britiske PPE’er Richard HOWITT fastslås det, at der er behov for forandringer i forholdet mellem Europas udviklingsbistand og ngo-sektoren .
The agreement is very different from other fisheries protocols signed by the Community, since it was a direct consequence of Greenland’s withdrawal from the then EEC.
at disse høringer sigter så bredt som muligt, således at de når dem, der repræsenterer de fattigste og mest marginaliserede,
That political deal makes it the second most expensive of the EU’s international fisheries agreements, with an annual budget of € 42.82m.
at op til 15 % af EU’s samlede udviklingsbistand afsættes til ikke-statslige aktører ,
The overall message of Mrs Miguèlez’s draft resolution is that the agreement should be made more transparent, by separating the fisheries aspects from those linked to broader co-operation.
at EP går væk fra ”del og hersk”-politikken og i stedet taler for en mere specifik finansiering af både europæiske ngo’er og ngo’er i syd , nemlig budgetposterne B7-6000 og 6002,
While recognising the importance of EU assistance to Greenland (which represents 4% of its GDP per capita ), she argues that all non-fisheries aspects should be financed from heading 4 of the Financial Perspective (external action) or through the European Development Fund, rather than from the already modest fisheries budget.
at én medarbejder i hver enkelt delegation udpeges specifikt som ansvarlig for tilsyn med høringer af civilsamfundet ,
The draft resolution also calls for the fishing quotas foreseen in the agreement to be updated in line with the latest scientific evidence.
Medansvar Howitt understreger, at den bedste garanti for udviklingsstrategiernes succes er modtagernes medansvar herfor og fulde engagement heri.
It should be noted that many of the deep changes to the agreement proposed by the reporter require the consent of both parties.
Det er derfor ikke blot et spørgsmål om at gennemføre høringsprocesser, men derimod om at sikre, at de involverede parter deltager i processen.
A Commission representative indicated to the Fisheries Committee that Greenland is unlikely to agree to important changes, which means in practice these will be postponed until at least 2006, when the current protocol expires.
Bistand til traditionelle AVS-bananleverandører
EC-Guinea Fishing Agreement
Ordfører: Fernando FERNÁNDEZ MARTÍN (PPE-DE, E)
Juan OJEDA SANZ (EPP-ED, E)
I en initiativbetænkning af Fernando FERNÁNDEZ MARTÍN (PPE-DE, E) understreges det, at formålet med bistandsprogrammet er, at forbedre konkurrenceevnen i den traditionelle AVS-banansektor eller at fremme diversificering i de tilfælde, hvor det ikke længere er muligt at forbedre konkurrenceevnen.
Juan OJEDA SANZ (EPP-ED, E), for the Fisheries Committee, is putting forward a draft resolution approving the conclusion of the agreement, subject to just two amendments reflecting the position that Parliament has consistently adopted with regard to the renewal of various fishing agreements.
Målsætningen udspringer af de aftaler, der er indgået med Ecuador og USA, hvor der i forskellige faser skal indføres ændringer i EU’s banan-importordning .
Believing that Parliament should be provided with better information to enable it to carry out its duties under the consultation procedure, the committee stipulates that, before undertaking any negotiations on Protocol renewal, the Commission should submit to Parliament and Council a general assessment report on the implementation of the Agreement.
Der er tale om tre faser indtil 2006 , og afslutningen vil være afskaffelse af den nuværende kvoteordning, der vil blive afløst af en toldordning for bananer .
The report should include a cost benefit analysis which should in turn ensure that the financial compensation for special measures for sustainable development contributes to improving the living conditions of the people of the country concerned.
Ubunden bistandshjælp: Ineffektiv bunden bistand!
Call to include linguistic diversity in future Constitution
Ordfører: Fernando FERNÁNDEZ MARTÍN (PPE-DE, E)
Michl EBNER (EPP-ED, I)
I november 2002 fremlagde EU-Kommissionen sin meddelelse om afbinding af bistand.
The Culture Committee criticises the lack of EU legislation on regional and less widely-used languages in a draft own-initiative resolution by Michl EBNER (EPP-ED, I).
Afbundet bistand er bistand, hvis tildeling ikke er betinget af, at den pågældende bistand benyttes til køb af varer og tjenesteydelser i donorlandet.
To overcome this problem, the draft resolution calls on the Intergovernmental Conference which is to discuss the draft constitution proposed by the Convention to include in the provisions on EU culture policy a reference to the promotion of linguistic diversity, including regional and minority languages as an expression of cultural diversity.
Den bundne bistand har vist sig at være ineffektiv , hvilket er den vigtigste baggrund for forslaget om afbinding af bistand.
In addition to this demand, MEPs in the committee make a number of recommendations to the Commission.
Ifølge Kommissionen kan fuld afbinding af bistand sænke omkostningerne i forbindelse med bistandstransaktioner med 25 % .
They call on it to carry out a feasibility study on the creation of a European Agency for Linguistic Diversity and Language Learning.
I en initiativbetænkning af Fernando FERNÁNDEZ MARTÍN (PPE-DE, E) kritiserer EP’s udviklingsudvalg, at FN’s resolution fra 1970, der forpligter de industrialiserede lande til at give et nettobeløb på 0,7 % af BNI i offentlig bistand til udviklingslande (ODA), på nuværende tidspunkt kun opfyldes af 4 lande, nemlig Danmark, Norge, Holland og Sverige.
They also want a multi-annual programme drawn up on linguistic diversity (including regional, minority and sign languages), together with financial measures to promote acceptance of multi-lingualism, including co-existence between official and " co-official " languages.
På Det Europæiske Råd i Barcelona i marts 2002 forpligtede man sig til at nå et EU-gennemsnit for ODA på 0,39 % af BNI i 2006 , hvilket forudsætter, at de enkelte medlemsstater giver mindst 0,33 % af deres BNI.
They add that the budgetary impact of these measures should be compatible with the ceiling of Heading 3 of the budget (internal policies) without a reprogramming of existing policies.
Et EU-gennemsnit for ODA på 0,39 % er i overensstemmelse med det globale gennemsnit, der er nødvendigt for at kunne opfylde udviklingsmålene i FN’s år 2000-erklæring.
In addition, MEPs argue that since the EU has adopted a mainstreaming strategy in its funding policy, the goal of promoting and protecting regional and minority languages should be clearly stated as part of the objectives, " at least of all the language and content industry related programmes" .
Det understreges, at afbinding ikke er et mål i sig selv , men et instrument til at forøge effektiviteten, gennemsigtigheden og sammenhængen ved ydelse af bistand, hvor bekæmpelse af fattigdom er hovedmålet .
It was largely due to Parliament that the European Bureau for Lesser-Used Languages was set up in 1982 and a separate budget line introduced in 1983 to promote and safeguard minority and regional languages.
Ordfører: Alexander RADWAN (PPE-DE, D)
Roy PERRY (EPP-ED, South East)
Den tyske socialdemokrat Alexander RADWAN har på vegne af Udvalget om Økonomi og Valutaspørgsmål, fremlagt en initiativbetænkning, der omhandler udarbejdelse af nye egenkapitalbestemmelser i Europa.
In the draft resolution, the committee restates its view that a complete overhaul of the directive is needed to take account of technological developments and changes in the structure of the audiovisual market.
Det overordnede formål med betænkningen er, at forbedre bankernes risikovurderinger.
MEPs are concerned about the integrity of the media, which they feel is threatened by growing concentration in the media industry.
EU-Kommissionen vil i foråret 2004 fremlægge et direktivforslag om, hvorledes Basel-aftalen kan indarbejdes i EU’s lovgivning.
In addition, the Commission is urged to monitor levels of media concentration in Europe and to draft an updated Green Paper on this issue by the beginning of 2004.
EP forventer ikke en komplet overtagelse af Basel-forslagene i EU-lovgivningen, da Basel-proceduren ifølge EP mangler demokratisk legitimitet (hverken EP eller de nationale parlamenter blev inddraget i forhandlingerne og Kommissionen deltog kun som observatør).
Myrsini ZORBA (PES, GR), reporting for the Culture Committee, will be presenting an own initiative draft resolution on cultural industries which stresses the relationship between culture and the production of cultural products and services, as well as the economic development, employment and training at the national, regional and local level.
Det fremhæves, at det er centralt, at de nye regler, der indføres i forbindelse med Basel II-aftalen bliver fleksible, og at der løbende foretages en vurdering af reglerne.
The committee also calls on the Commission and the Member States to remove VAT from cultural products by placing music in ” Annex H of the VAT directive ”.
Ligeledes understreges det, at EP ikke må udelukkes fra drøftelserne , og kræver i den forbindelse, at EF-traktatens artikel 202 ændres, således at EP får tildelt ”call-back” beføjelser.
It also calls on the Member States to give priority to the development of broadband internet access in rural and peripheral regions in order to create a level playing field for cultural industries based in these areas.
Ordfører: Helena TORRES MARQUES (PSE, P)
Göran FÄRM (PES, S)
I en betænkning af den portugisiske socialist Helena TORRES MARQUES godkender EP's økonomiudvalg Kommissionens forslag om en teknisk ændring af et forslag om den særlige momsordning for rejsebureauer og rejsearrangører, der er etableret uden for EU, og som leverer rejsepakker til kunder, der har bopæl i EU.
Göran FÄRM (PES, S), for the Budgets Committee, is putting forward a draft resolution on the Draft Amending Budget No. 3 for 2003 (Commission).
Det er nødvendigt at hindre skatteunddragelse, men også at skabe lige vilkår, således at EU-baserede rejsearrangører ikke konfronteres med illoyal konkurrence fra lande uden for EU.
It deplores the fact that the surplus for 2002 amounted to €7.4bn although it acknowledges that this was actually an improvement compared with the surplus of €15bn for 2001.

Den Europæiske Ombudsmands årsberetning 2002, betænkning af THE EARL OF STOCKTON
Report on the appointment of Mr Jean-Claude Trichet as President of the European Central Bank
I februar 2003 fremsendte Den Europæiske Ombudsmand Jacob SÖDERMAN sin årsberetning fra 2002 til Europa-Parlamentet.
On Tuesday morning, Parliament will debate the nomination of Jean-Claude TRICHET as the next President of the European Central Bank (ECB).
The Earl of STOCKTON (PPE-DE, UK) har på vegne af Udvalget om Andragender fremlagt en betænkning hvori det understreges, at Söderman har gjort et fremragende arbejde som EU’s ombudsmand, og at hans pensionering ”markerer en vigtig milepæl” i forbindelserne mellem borgere og institutioner i EU.
The Economic and Monetary Affairs Committee has already held a hearing with Mr Trichet.
Söderman roses navnlig for sit bidrag til Konventets arbejde og for at have skabt tætte forbindelser til regeringerne i tiltrædelseslandene.
Following the hearing, MEPs gave him their overwhelming backing: 20 votes in favour, 2 against and 4 abstentions.
Endvidere mener Udvalget om Andragender, at Söderman har skabt præcedens for en saglig og upartisk sagsbehandling , en kvalitet der skal videreføres i det fremtidige arbejde.
This vote has still to be ratified by Parliament's plenary.
Flest klager over EU-Kommissionen Udvalget om Andragender konstaterer, at de fleste klager fortsat vedrører Kommissionen , og beklager at adfærdskodeksen for god forvaltningsskik , stadig ikke er vedtaget og anvendes af Kommissionen.
During the hearing Mr Trichet was questioned at length on the need to revise the Stability and Growth Pact, the stance to be taken towards countries that exceed the 3% public deficit figure, the social impact of monetary policy, the differences between the situations of the USA and the EU, and the ECB's communication policy, which some MEPs accused of lacking transparency
Ny ombudsmand Udvalget om Andragender henstiller den nye ombudsmand, grækeren P. Nikiforos DIAMANDOUROS til at fokusere på følgende:
Jean-Claude Trichet, who has been nominated by the European Council as the new President of the European Central Bank (ECB) is to succeed Wim DUISENBERG .
at der indføres gennemsigtighed og adgang til EU’s beslutningsprocesser , hvis EU efter udvidelsen skal opnå folkelig tilslutning fra de 500 mio. borgere , der til den tid vil udgøre EU,
Under Article 112 of the EC Treaty, Parliament must be consulted on the appointment of any new member of the Executive Board of the ECB.
at sikre, at resultaterne af Konventets arbejde vil øge adgangen til og gennemsigtigheden af EU og EU’s ansvarlighed .
Taxation of energy products and electricity
Ordfører: Laura GONZÁLEZ ÁLVAREZ (GUE/NGL, E)
Pierre JONCKHEER (Greens/EFA, B)
Resultatet af arbejdet i Udvalget for Andragender i parlamentsåret 2002-2003
Report on the draft Council directive restructuring the Community framework for the taxation of energy products and electricity
Et andragende er en anmodning eller klage, som en borger i EU sender til Europa-Parlamentet.
The Economic Committee, although unsatisfied with the Council’s position, limits itself to only a few technical amendments.
Siden 1990 har EP's udvalg for andragender udarbejdet en årlig betænkning om andragender.
This Directive seeks to establish a Community framework for the taxation of energy products.
Den seneste - som dækker perioden 12. marts 2002 -10. marts 2003 - er udarbejdet af den spanske GUE'er Laura GONZÁLEZ ÁLVAREZ.
The committee welcomes the fact that the Council did indeed reach an agreement on a comprehensive energy tax directive, encompassing all forms of energy.
Ved hjælp af andragender kan EU vurdere, i hvilket omfang EU-retten bliver gennemført - såvel på nationalt som på europæisk plan.
It encourages Member States to respect the objective of fiscal neutrality by reducing statutory charges on labour at the same time as introducing the new common system of taxing energy products.
Antallet af andragender har været støt stigende:
The essential elements of the Commission's proposed new measures are the following:
De fleste andragender kommer fra Tyskland - 323 - derefter følger Italien (236), Spanien (203), Storbritannien (202) og Frankrig (149).
flexibility for the pursuit of objectives of environmental, transport or energy policy: the Commission proposes offering the Member States a number of options enabling them to pursue more ambitious environmental policies, consistent with the objective to stabilise CO2 emissions; the Member States would thus be authorised to apply reduced rates or exemptions from tax to certain products or uses (biofuels, renewable energy sources, rail transport, inland waterway navigation, heat produced in combined generation installations).
I bunden ligger Luxembourg med 2 andragender og Danmark med 8 indsendte andragender til Europa-Parlamentet!
New investment services directive: more competition and stronger investor protection
Ordfører: Roy PERRY (PPE-DE, UK)
Theresa VILLIERS (EPP-ED, London)
Roy PERRY (PPE-DE, UK) har på vegne af Udvalget om Andragender fremlagt en betænkning vedrørende andragender om det britiske forsikringsselskab Lloyd’s .
Theresa VILLIERS (EPP-ED, UK), for the Economic & Monetary Affairs Committee, will be tabling a draft legislative resolution on the Investment Services Directive (ISD).
Forsinkelse og uklarhed Sagsbehandlingen har ifølge Udvalget om Andragender været utilstrækkelig: til eksempel blev et af andragenderne indgivet for fem år siden og er stadig ikke blevet besvaret.
As regards " conduct of business " obligations, it has called for suitability tests (Art. 18) to apply only to deals where advice is provided. "
Udvalget mener, at sagen generelt har været præget af hemmeligholdelse og forsinkelser , hvilket skader den britiske regerings og EU-Kommissionens omdømme.
While supporting the idea that firms should actively look for the best deal for clients, MEPs believe this point should be clarified because an absolute duty to find the lowest price or the cheapest transaction venue cannot work in practice.
