Med tiltrædelsen af 10 nye lande vil EU have 25 medlemmer, et tal der vil blive endnu større i fremtiden.
He was particularly concerned about the recent ECOFIN proposals to limit the powers of the European Parliament in the budgetary area.
Prodi sagde, at tiltrædelsen med 10 nye lande i maj 2004 vil udvide EU's horisonter.
He was another speaker to call for a more flexible review procedure for part III of the Treaty.
Kun i 3 % af tilfældene havde der været 39 konkrete sager, hvor der var tale om alvorlige forsømmelser.
Furthermore, Mrs Kauffmann stressed the importance of matching the EU's goals with its policies.
Om Tyrkiet sagde Verheugen, at tempoet og kvaliteten i reformprocessen var accelereret i landet - men Tyrkiet lever stadig ikke op til vore krav .
José RIBEIRO E CASTRO (P) for the UEN group was not surprised about the ongoing arguments in the IGC and criticised " Jacques Chirac for threatening to withdraw EU funds if France did not get its way in the IGC ."
Dette havde udløst forbavselse i Tyrkiet, hvor man havde forventet en mere positiv vurdering.
He also stressed the importance of having one Commissioner per Member State.
Men der er problemer med de grundlæggende rettigheder og den manglende gennemførelse af dommene fra den Europæiske Menneskerettighedsdomstol.
Jens-Peter BONDE (DK) for the EDD group stated that he had published on his website an easy to read and understandable version of the draft Constitution including a minority opinion on the way the Union should proceed.
Endvidere udgør den manglende løsning af Cypern-problemet en alvorlig forhindring for Tyrkiets "europæiske forhåbninger".
He also criticised the Italian Presidency for not achieving a resolution on the moratorium on the death penalty.
Hvordan er det muligt, Verheugen? spurgte Pöttering.
Finally, he wanted to ensure that each Member State had one representative in the Commission.
Pöttering fastslog, at Tyrkiet er vore venner og partnere, men han gik ind for "privilegeret partnerskab" i stedet for tyrkisk medlemskab af EU.
If accepted, he stated frankly, Parliament " would have been castrated with a blunt pair of scissors ."
Günter Verheugen var også vred over informationslækagen fra Kommissionen, hvor medarbejdere står for lækagen, hvilket han undskyldte.
Parliament, he recalled, had already sacrificed some existing powers so as to ensure good co-operation with the Council and not " coercion ."

Midlertidigt EP-udvalg om sikkerhed til søs:Katastrofer til søs: "Prestige", "Erika" m.fl.
Report on the proposal for a European Parliament and Council regulation concerning Community cooperation with Asian and Latin American countries and amending Council Regulation (EC) No 2258/96
Procedure: Forretningsordenens artikel 150, stk. 2
Procedure : Co-decision (1st reading)
Torsdag den 6. november 2003 besluttede Europa-Parlamentet under "mini-samlingen" i Bruxelles at nedsætte et midlertidigt udvalg om sikkerhed til søs .
The current Regulation governing co-operation with Asia and Latin America is now over ten years old and needs to be updated to reflect modern advances in conceptions of development work as well as the legal, procedural and political environment for EC co-operation.
Det midlertidige udvalg får beføjelse til at
The separation runs counter to the Commission's views who would prefer to maintain the two together.

foreslå yderligere foranstaltninger, såfremt det anses for nødvendigt.
The House also adds additional preferences for least developed countries to give them opportunities to compete with other developing countries.
Det midlertidige udvalgs funktionsperiode er på 6 måneder, hvorefter det forelægger en beretning for Europa-Parlamentet.
The resolution contains a number of amendments aimed at improving parliamentary accountability, to allow for greater scrutiny not only by the European Parliament but also by Member State parliaments and the parliaments of the developing country partners.
Det midlertidige udvalg skal bestå af 44 medlemmer.
These aim not only to ensure European authorities are called to account but also to reinforce parliamentary democracy in partner countries.
Beslutningen om nedsættelse af det midlertidige udvalg om sikkerhed til søs er en opfølgning på EP-beslutningen af 23. september om skærpelse af sikkerheden til søs efter olietankeren "Prestiges" forlis, hvori EP opfordrede Formandskonferencen til "at behandle enhver anmodning om nedsættelse af et midlertidigt udvalg positivt".

Beskatning af personbiler:Afskaffelse af registreringsafgifter?
Procedural safeguards in criminal trials
Ordfører: Mary HONEYBALL (PSE, UK)
Jorge Salvador HERNANDEZ MOLLAR (EPP-ED, E)
EU-Kommissionen har fremlagt en meddelelse om beskatning af personbiler i EU.
Parliament adopted by 410 votes in favour, 67 against with 4 abstentions a non-binding resolution welcoming the Commission's Green Paper on procedural safeguards in criminal trials.
Kommissionen fremsætter nogle tanker til reform af bilbeskatningen.
The House fully supports the Commission's commitment to table a proposal for a Framework Decision on common minimum standards governing procedural law, arguing that this is essential to increase the confidence which Member States had in each other's legal systems.
Kommissionen mener, at registreringsafgifterne på mellemlang sigt - 5-10 år - bør afskaffes , og at vægten i stedet bør lægges på årlige vægtafgifter, brændstofafgifter og miljøafgifter.
It also wants the Decision to include a non-regression clause so that Member States would be encouraged to apply higher national standards and would not use the establishment of common minimum standards at EU level as a reason to undermine their existing national standards.
Refusionsordning for registreringsafgifter?
MEPs make a number of recommendations aimed at tightening up or fleshing out the Commission's proposals in various areas:
Kommissionen foreslår også, at der hurtigst muligt indføres en refusionsordning for registreringsafgifter i alle de 10 medlemslande, der i øjeblikket opkræver registreringsafgifter.
as regards access to legal representation, it calls for the complete confidentiality of contacts between the defence lawyer and the suspect or defendant and said that the lawyer should be present each time the latter is questioned.
Denne ordning skal i overgangsperioden sikre en pro rata-refusion i alle de tilfælde, hvor en personbil, der er registreret i en medlemsstat, eksporteres eller flyttes permanent til en anden medlemsstat.
Where a Member State fails to provide representation by a lawyer to an individual who is entitled to it, the process should automatically be considered void and the proceedings annulled;
Kommissionen mener også, at der bør udarbejdes generelle regler for beregningen af registreringsafgifter på brugte biler, der importeres fra andre medlemslande.
on access to interpretation and translation, there should be a requirement for all oral proceedings to be interpreted, from the very first time the suspect or defendant is questioned.
Nye bilers CO2-emissioner Endelig mener Kommissionen, at der bør etableres en mere direkte sammenhæng mellem beskatningsniveauet og nye bilers CO2-emissioner.
All documents which the defendant needs to understand for the purposes of a fair trial must be translated, including the police statement, statements by the complainant/s and witness/es, statements by the suspect/defendant, etc.
Både registreringsafgifter og årlige vægtafgifter bør ændres til afgifter, der i fuldt omfang er baseret på CO2-emissionsniveauet - eller at CO2-problematikken i hvert fald tages med i betragtning.
The national registers of certified translators and interpreters to be drawn up by the Member States should be amalgamated in due course into an EU-wide register;
EP erkender, at brændstofbeskatning og vejafgifter ikke kan betragtes isoleret fra beskatning af biler.
For those suffering from mental or nervous illnesses, a psychiatrist should always be involved in the proceedings;
EP opfordrer derfor EU-Kommissionen og medlemslandene til at sikre, at der gives skatte- og afgiftslettelser til miljøvenlige personbiler.
there should be a requirement for the police, judicial or prison authorities to immediately inform foreigners who have been arrested that they may notify their country's consul and ask the consul to visit them or establish contact with them and their family.
I Honeyball-betænkningen bekræfter EP sin støtte til Kommissionen forslag fra 1998, der havde til formål at afskaffe dobbeltbeskatning for registreringsafgifter, men påpeger, at der ikke kunne opnås enstemmighed herom i EU's Ministerråd.
Lastly, the proposed " Letter of Rights " setting out the fundamental rights of suspects and defendants should be readily comprehensible and written in a language they can understand.
Miljø og trafiksikkerhed EP vedtog et ændringsforslag, hvori man fastslår, at afgiftsstrukturerne skal være enkle og gennemsigtige, og at kriterier for fastlæggelse af afgiften bør holdes på et absolut minimum.
The Letter should consist of two parts: (a) a general part common to all Member States setting out, for example, the right to be assisted by counsel of their own choice, even when they are unable to pay for it, the right to an interpreter, free of charge, the right to remain silent, the right to medical treatment, etc.; and (b) a special part illustrating the particular advantages offered by the State in which proceedings are to take place.
EP mener, at parametre for såvel miljø som trafiksikkerhed er vigtige faktorer, der - så længe de ikke er i modstrid med hinanden - skal anvendes som grundlag for en revideret afgiftsstruktur.

Retssikkerhedsgaranti for mistænkte og tiltalte:EU-minimumsstandarder?
Taxation of passenger cars in the European Union
Ordfører: Jorge Salvador HERNANDEZ MOLLAR (PPE-DE, E)
Mary HONEYBALL (PES, London)
EU-Kommissionen har fremlagt en grønbog om retssikkerhedsgarantier for mistænkte og tiltalte i straffesager i EU .
Parliament adopted non-binding resolution which broadly welcomes a Commission communication on taxation of passenger cars in the European Union.
Kommissionen tilsigter at
MEPs agree that there is an urgent need to restructure vehicle taxes in the European Union.
undersøge muligheden og behovet for at fastsætte minimumsstandarder i EU's medlemsstater for retssikkerheden for personer, der er mistænkt, retsforfulgt, sigtet/tiltalt eller dømt for strafferetlige overtrædelser og
The House is convinced that, without environment-oriented taxation, the objectives of the three-pillar Community strategy on CO 2 reduction and the shared goal of achieving a CO 2 level of 120 g/km for new cars by 2010 at the latest are in jeopardy and cannot be realised.
klarlægge, hvorledes disse minimumsstandarder skal være, og på hvilke områder de kan anvendes.
The House considers that both environmental and road safety parameters are important factors which, when they do not contradict each other, must be used as the basis for a revised tax structure.
Hernandez Mollar-betænkningen blev vedtaget med 410 stemmer mod 67 - medens 4 undlod at stemme.
All Members States, except France, levy an Annual Circulation Tax (ACT) at levels ranging from €30 to €463 per year.
Forbindelsesofficerer for indvandring:Information om lovlig indvandring!
The UK ACT is consequently considerably lower for cars which emit (relatively) little CO 2 per km.
Ordfører: Martine ROURE (PSE, F)
Lone DYBKJÆR (ELDR, DK)
EP vedtog en betænkning af Martine ROURE (PSE, F) om Grækenlands forslag til Rådsforordning om oprettelse af et netværk af indvandringsforbindelsesofficerer som led i den gradvise indførelse af en samordnet og integreret forvaltning af EU's ydre grænser.
Furthermore, the House calls on political parties to agree on common policies providing for women candidates to make up at least 30% of their party lists in the European elections, to initiate a gender sensitisation of their party leadership, to encourage promotion, including financial promotion, of the empowerment of women in politics (training, meeting, monitoring), and to ensure that their media strategies take gender balance into account.

Endvidere mener EP, at der skal gøres en større indsats for at forbedre samarbejdet med lande i Asien og Latinamerika bl.a. ved at sikre en hensigtsmæssig balance mellem de afsatte midler og absorptionsevnen i de pågældende lande.

"Tilskudspakken":EU-støtte til kultur- og uddannelsesområdet
Action Programme for education and training organisations
Ordfører: Christa PRETS (PSE, A)
Doris PACK (EPP-ED, D)
EP vedtog en betænkning af Christa PRETS (PSE, A) om EU-Kommissionens forslag til et EU-handlingsprogram til fremme af organisationer, der er aktive på europæisk plan indenfor ungdomsområdet.
The House wants the International Federation of Europe Houses (FIME) to be added to the list of specified beneficiary organisations on the grounds that its activities are essentially educational in character and should therefore be financed from the education and culture budget rather than from the press and communication budget as at present.
Budget på 11,52 mio. euro (2004-2006) Der er på nuværende tidspunkt ikke nogen basisretsakt for tilskud til ikke-statslige ungdomsorganisationer.
MEPs also say that grants should be awarded by means of a call for proposal for European associations active in the field of education or training, for activities in the field of higher education concerning European integration, including Jean Monnet chairs, for activities contributing to the achievement of the future objectives of education and training systems in Europe and for the training of national judges in the field of European law and for organisations for judicial co-operation .
Kommissionen har foreslået et flerårigt budget på 11,52 mio. euro i perioden 2004-2006 .
Parliament also calls for the programme's overall budget for the period 2004-2008 to be increased from €129.62 million to €149.92 million for a number of reasons, including the need to take account of the addition of FIME, the need for extra funding for technical assistance and the need to build in a 2% increase for the 2004 funds, which the Commission had based on funding for 2003 without allowing for inflation.
Aktive og ansvarsbevidste unge EP fastslår, at unge bør blive aktive borgere og udvikle en ansvarsbevidsthed .
A number of amendments were adopted adjusting the proposed breakdown of funds between the different Actions.
Endvidere mener EP, at organisationerne gør det muligt for de unge, at udveksle synspunkter indbyrdes på tværs af EU's grænser, hvilket vil bidrage til at bringe Europa tættere på de unge borgere.
Lastly, in the interests of transparency, MEPs say that any beneficiary of a grant from the EU budget should indicate this in a prominent place such as a website homepage or an annual report.

Ordfører: Doris PACK (PPE-DE, D)
Christa PRETS (PES, A)
EP vedtog en betænkning af Doris PACK (PPE-DE, D) om uddannelser af europæisk interesse, herunder Europakollegiet i Brugge.
It calls for the programme to last for 5 years rather than 3 years on the grounds that it is one of seven new programmes which should all have the same duration in order to make a mid-term assessment of needs.
EU-Kommissionens forslag til et EU-handlingsprogram 2004-2008 skal støtte organer, der er aktive på europæisk plan på uddannelsesområdet .
Parliament points out that the requirement in the Commission's proposal that grants awarded to international youth organisations be progressively reduced from the third year onwards is not legally binding and would be counter-effective in terms of youth policy, due to the constant turn-over in membership which is a natural feature of youth organisations, together with the associated chronic under-funding.
Kommissionen har foreslået et flerårigt budget på 125,62 mio. euro i tilskud og 4 mio. euro i faglig bistand - dvs. i alt 129,60 mio. i perioden 2004-2008 .
MEPs also want the overall budget to be increased from €11.52 million to €13.17 million, so that the sums could be increased to reflect the impact of enlargement.
Europakollegiet i Brugge og det europæiske universitetsinstitut i Firenze er blandt de institutioner, der vil kunne opnå støtte.
stipulating that one of the objectives must be that the beneficiary organisations contribute to "the active participation of young citizens in public life and in society";
EP støttede generelt Kommissionens forslag, dog mente de at budgettet bør forhøjes til 149,92 mio. euro - 20 mio. euro mere end foreslået af Kommissionen.
