Krisztina Morvai gør gældende, at Parlamentet bør opretholde hendes parlamentariske immunitet.
For her part, Krisztina Morvai submits that Parliament should uphold her parliamentary immunity.
Hun anerkender ganske vist, at hun har fremsat de pågældende udtalelser, men hun fremsatte dem i sin egenskab af forkæmper for kvinders rettigheder, og hun er under alle omstændigheder ikke blevet orienteret om, at der var indledt en undersøgelse eller en sag mod hende, i perioden fra den 14. april 2005, da den oprindelige anmeldelse blev foretaget, til den 14. april 2008, hvor forældelsesfristen for overtrædelsen ville være udløbet.
Although she does acknowledge that she did make the statements in question, she made them in her capacity as a women's right activist, and she had in any event not been informed of any investigations or proceedings against her between 14 April 2005, when the original complaint was made, and 14 April 2008, when the limitation period for the offence would have run out.
Forældelsesfristen var derfor udløbet den 9. oktober 2010, da anmodningen om ophævelse af den parlamentariske immunitet blev fremsat.
The limitation period had therefore expired on 8 October 2010, when the request for waiver of the parliamentary immunity was made.
Hun mener, at anmelderen og domstolen først gik videre med sagen mod hende, efter at hun var blevet valgt til medlem af Europa-Parlamentet i 2009.
She considers that the complainant and the Court pursued the proceedings against her only after she had been elected Member of the European Parliament in 2009.
Under Europa-Parlamentets sessioner nyder medlemmerne:
During the sessions of the European Parliament, its Members shall enjoy: a.
a. på deres eget lands område de immuniteter, der tilstås medlemmerne af deres lands lovgivende forsamling b.
in the territory of their own State, the immunities accorded to members of their parliament ; b.
på en anden medlemsstats område fritagelse for enhver form for tilbageholdelse og retsforfølgning.
in the territory of other Member States, immunity from any measure or detention and from legal proceedings.
Proceduren i Europa-Parlamentet er underlagt forretningsordenens artikel 6 og 7.
The procedure in the European Parliament is governed by Rules 6 and 7 of the Rules of Procedure.
De relevante bestemmelser lyder således (ordførerens fremhævelser):
The relevant provisions read as follows (emphasis added):
Under udøvelsen af sine beføjelser vedrørende privilegier og immuniteter tilstræber Parlamentet først og fremmest at bevare sin integritet som demokratisk lovgivende forsamling og sikre medlemmernes uafhængighed under udførelsen af deres opgaver .
In the exercise of its powers in respect of privileges and immunities, Parliament shall seek primarily to uphold its integrity as a democratic legislative assembly and to secure the independence of its Members in the performance of their duties .
Artikel 7 - Procedurer vedrørende immunitet
Rule 7 - Procedures on immunity
Udvalget kan afgive en begrundet udtalelse om den pågældende myndigheds kompetence og om, hvorvidt anmodningen kan tages under behandling, men udtaler sig under ingen omstændigheder om skyldspørgsmålet eller om det hensigtsmæssige i en strafferetlig forfølgelse på grundlag af de udtalelser eller handlinger, som medlemmet tillægges, selv ikke i tilfælde, hvor udvalget gennem prøvelsen af anmodningen opnår grundigt kendskab til selve sagen.
The committee may offer a reasoned opinion about the competence of the authority in question and the admissibility of the request, but shall not, under any circumstances, pronounce on the guilt or otherwise of the Member nor on whether or not the opinions or acts attributed to him or her justify prosecution, even if, in considering the request, it acquires detailed knowledge of the facts of the case.
Eftersom de omhandlede udtalelser blev fremsat i 2005, blev de fremsat, inden Krisztina Morvai blev valgt til medlem af Europa-Parlamentet ved valget i 2009.
Since the statements in question were made in 2005, they were made before Krisztina Morvai became a Member of the European Parliament following her election during the 2009 European Parliament elections.
Som Domstolen har fastslået, kan omfanget af den absolutte immunitet i protokollens artikel 8 "kun fastlægges på grundlag af fællesskabsretten"
As the Court of Justice has held, the scope of the absolute immunity provided for in Article 8 “must be established on the basis of Community law alone”
Domstolen har for nylig også fastslået, at "en erklæring, der afgives af en europaparlamentariker uden for Europa-Parlamentet, og som giver anledning til en straffesag om bagvaskelse i dennes oprindelsesmedlemsstat, alene udgør en meningstilkendegivelse, der fremsættes under udøvelsen af det parlamentariske hverv, som henhører under immuniteten i henhold til denne bestemmelse, såfremt denne erklæring udtrykker en subjektiv bedømmelse, der har en direkte og klar forbindelse til udøvelsen af dette hverv "
The Court has also recently held that “a statement made by a Member of the European Parliament beyond the precincts of that institution and giving rise to prosecution in his Member State of origin for the offence of making false accusations does not constitute an opinion expressed in the performance of his parliamentary duties covered by the immunity afforded by that provision unless that statement amounts to a subjective appraisal having a direct, obvious connection with the performance of those duties ”
Patriciello-dommen, jf. ovenfor, konklusionen. (ordførerens fremhævelse).
Patriciello , cited above, operative part. (emphasis added).
Det fremgår af de dokumenter, der er modtaget fra den centrale distriktsdomstol i Pest, og af de yderligere oplysninger og præciseringer, der er blevet givet efter anmodning fra udvalget, at straffesagen mod Krisztina Morvai blev afbrudt flere gange i perioden fra den 14. april 2005, da sagen blev indledt, til den 8. oktober 2010, hvor anmodningen om ophævelse af den parlamentariske immunitet blev fremsat, og at forældelsesfristen kun havde løbet i meget begrænsede perioder, da anmelderen var blevet opfordret til at foretage procesunderretninger eller fremkomme med yderligere oplysninger til domstolen.
On the basis of the documents received from the Pest Central District Court and the additional information and explanations provided following the Committee's request, it appears that the criminal proceedings against Krisztina Morvai were interrupted several times between 14 April 2005, when the proceedings were initiated, and 8 October 2010, when the request for waiver of the parliamentary immunity was made, and that the limitation period had only been running for very limited periods of times when the complainant had been instructed to give notices or provide further information to the Court.
Forældelsesfristen for den påståede lovovertrædelse var derfor ikke udløbet den 8. oktober 2010.
The limitation period for the alleged offence had therefore not run out on 8 October 2010.
Udvalget finder på den baggrund, at det fremgår af sagens faktiske omstændigheder som beskrevet i anmodningen om ophævelse af immuniteten, i den skriftlige redegørelse til udvalget og under høringen af Krisztina Morvai, at udtalelserne blev fremsat på et tidspunkt, hvor hun ikke var medlem af Europa-Parlamentet, og at forældelsesfristen for den påståede lovovertrædelse ikke var udløbet, efter at der var indledt en straffesag.
Against this background, the Committee considers that the facts of the case, as manifested in the request for waiver, in the written submissions to the Committee and at the hearing of Krisztina Morvai, indicate that the statements were made at a time when she was not a Member of the European Parliament and that the limitation period of the alleged offence had not run out following the initiation of criminal procedures.
Udvalget konkluderer derfor, at Krisztina Morvai ikke fremsatte de pågældende udtalelser som led i udøvelsen af sit hverv som medlem af Europa-Parlamentet.
The Committee therefore considers that, when making the statements in question, Krisztina Morvai was not acting in the performance of her duties as Member of the European Parliament.
På grundlag af ovenstående betragtninger, i henhold til artikel 6, stk. 2, i forretningsordenen og efter at have overvejet argumenterne for og imod beskyttelse af medlemmets immunitet, anbefaler Retsudvalget, at Parlamentet ophæver Krisztina Morvais parlamentariske immunitet.
On the basis of the above considerations and pursuant to Rule 6(2) of the Rules of Procedure, after considering the reasons for and against defending the Member’s immunity, the Committee on Legal Affairs recommends that the European Parliament should waive the parliamentary immunity of Krisztina Morvai.

4. understreger betydningen af at skabe et mere gennemsigtigt, stabilt, troværdigt og ansvarligt erhvervsliv i EU med forbedret corporate governance; mener, at erhvervslivet bør være i stand til at tage økonomiske, sociale, etiske og miljømæssige hensyn og til at udvise ansvar over for både arbejdstagere og aktionærer og over for samfundet som helhed, ud over at sikre bedre økonomiske resultater og skabe anstændige jobs;
Underlines the importance of creating a more transparent, stable, reliable and accountable corporate sector in the EU, with improved corporate governance; considers that the corporate sector should be able to take social, ethical and environmental concerns into account in its practices and to demonstrate its responsibilities both towards employees and shareholders and towards society at large, in addition to ensuring better economic performance and the creation of decent jobs;
7. mener, at OECD’s definition af corporate governance fra 2004, ifølge hvilken corporate governance omfatter en række forbindelser mellem en virksomheds ledelse, dens bestyrelse, dens aktionærer og andre interessenter, bør fremmes yderligere;
Considers that the 2004 OECD definition of corporate governance, according to which corporate governance involves a set of relationships between a company’s management, its board, its shareholders and other stakeholders, should be further promoted;
20. finder, at regelmæssige eksterne evalueringer er nyttige redskaber til at vurdere effektiviteten af corporate governance-praksis; finder imidlertid, at de ikke bør være obligatoriske;
Agrees that external evaluations on a periodical basis are useful tools for assessing the effectiveness of corporate governance practices; however, is of the opinion that they should not be compulsory;
efterlyser bæredygtige, langsigtede aflønningspolitikker, der bør baseres på, hvordan den enkelte og hans virksomhed fungerer på lang sigt;
24.Calls for sustainable long-term remuneration policies, which should be based on the long-term functioning of the individual and his company;
Europa-Parlamentets og Rådets direktiv 2007/36/EF af 11. juli 2007 om udøvelse af visse aktionærrettigheder i børsnoterede selskaber. godkender princippet om ligebehandling af aktionærer, og at alle aktionærer (institutionelle og andre) derfor er berettigede til at modtage de samme oplysninger fra selskabet, uanset størrelsen af deres aktieandel;
Directive 2007/36/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 July 2007 on the exercise of certain rights of shareholders in listed companies. endorses the principle of equal treatment of shareholders and that therefore all shareholders (institutional or not) are entitled to receive the same information from the company, irrespective of their stake;
38. minder Kommissionen om behovet for en klar definition af "samlet handling", da manglen på ensartede regler udgør en af de største hindringer for aktionærernes samarbejde;
Reminds the Commission of the need for a clear-cut definition of ‘acting in concert’, as the lack of uniform rules constitutes one of the main obstacles to shareholders’ cooperation;
43. finder, at spørgsmålet om ordninger med medarbejderaktier bør reguleres på medlemsstatsniveau og overlades til forhandlinger mellem arbejdsgivere og arbejdstagere; muligheden for at deltage i sådanne ordninger bør altid være frivillig;
Believes that the question of employee share ownership schemes is one which should be regulated at Member State level and left to negotiations between employers and employees: the possibility of participating in such a scheme should always be of a voluntary nature;
