Rådets formandskab
Internal Market
Onsdag den 12. januar 2005 holdt Europa-Parlamentet i Strasbourg en debat om programmet for det luxembourgske EU-formandskab i 1. halvår 2005.
Report on the Council common position for adopting a directive of the
Luxembourg har opstillet et meget ambitiøst program for deres formandskab, og i Europa-Parlamentet er der store forventninger til den luxembourgske premierminister Jean-Claude Juncker og hans store erfaringer på europæisk niveau.
European Parliament and of the Council amending Council Directives 72/166/EEC,
Efter Junckers indlæg i EP sagde den spanske EP-formand Josep BORRELL , at klapsalverne i Europa-Parlamentet viser, at EP har meget positive forventninger til det luxembourgske EU-formandskab.
84/5/EEC, 88/357/EEC and 90/232/EEC and Directive 2000/26/EC of the
Juncker var glad for, at de central- og østeuropæiske lande var kommet med i EU, men fastslog samtidig, at EU kun kan komme videre, såfremt man ser bort fra den nationale interesse - og fokuserer på fællesinteressen .
The directive is a response to the concerns and complaints, which, the European Parliament was the first to take on board, in calling on the Commission, as early as 2001, to modernise and improve the existing regulations in the field of vehicle insurance.
Forfatningstraktaten Ratificering af forfatningstraktaten spiller en vigtig rolle under det luxembourgske formandskab.
The directive will allow insurance cover for a temporary stay in another Member State other than the country where the vehicle is insured (periods of study, work, second home residences).
Forfatningen er ikke perfekt, men man bør ikke sætte idealet for højt.
Indeed, where a vehicle is dispatched from one Member State to another, the Member State where the risk is situated will be considered to be the Member State of destination immediately upon acceptance of delivery by the purchaser for a period of thirty days, even though the vehicle has not formally been registered in the Member State of destination.
Forfatningstraktaten er hverken højre- eller venstreorienteret, fastslog Juncker.
A minimum amount of cover of €1m per victim and/or €5m per claim event, regardless of the number of victims, is a reasonable and adequate amount.
Han udtrykte en vis bekymring, idet det ikke bliver nemt at få den ratificeret overalt.
Parliament also states that Member States should take all appropriate measures to facilitate the availability in due time to the victims, their insurers or their legal representatives of the minimal data set necessary for the settlement of claims.
Juncker pegede på, at flodbølgekatastrofen i Sydøstasien havde præget afslutningen på 2004 og starten på det luxembourgske formandskab i januar 2005.
This minimal data set should possibly be made available in electronic form in a central register in each Member State, and be accessible to parties involved in the case at their explicit request.
Vi skal styrke vor indsats for fred i Mellemøsten og påvirke situationen i Ukraine i positiv retning.
on the earthquake and tsunami in Asia.
Det er vigtigt med et stærkt demokrati i Ukraine.
He said this had been an unprecedented
Vi skal konsolidere det europæiske retsområde og udvikle en europæisk "sikkerhedskultur" - men det må ikke ske på bekostning af frihed.
Mr Asselborn stressed the importance of the UN's co-ordinating role in managing emergency aid.
"Lissabon" Jean-Claude Juncker fastslog, at midtvejsrevisionen af "Lissabon-strategien" står øverst på dagsordenen for EU-forårstopmødet 22.-23. marts 2005.
He stated that it was important that EU assistance should not be at the expense of other development spending priorities.
Vi skal styrke konkurrenceevnen, bæredygtig vækst, respektere miljøet og sikre social samhørighed.
The Council had also discussed plans for the future: for an early warning mechanism and prevention strategy, and for the development of a rapid reaction force, an increased EU role in co-ordinating aid structures and the strengthening of consular help.
"Lissabon" må ikke degenerere til en myte - men vi må ikke glemme, at europæerne er bange for reformer.
They has also examined the options for debt servicing issues.
Konkurrenceevnen skal styrkes, og det skal skabe større social samhørighed og et afbalanceret miljø.
On 31 January, the Council would meet again to take these ideas forward into an action plan for the future.
Alle 3 komponenter går hånd-i-hånd.
Commission President José Manuel BARROSO 's intervention is summarised below.
Vi skal have et "europæisk vidensområde" med livslang læring .
"The first support package was announced on the day that the tsunami struck and we have now committed through ECHO €23m.
Desværre har vi alt for mange processer i gang samtidig.
However, as Kofi Annan has underlined, a billion US dollars will be needed immediately.
Om stabilitets- og vækstpagten sagde Juncker, at 3 % grænsen for offentlige underskud skal opretholdes, men medlemslandene skal have større manøvremargen i situationer med svag vækst.
I understand your committees have been discussing this proposal favourably.
Vi har brug for både mere stabilitet og fleksibilitet , afhængigt af, hvor vi befinder os i den økonomiske cyklus.
In this regard, I fully support the Parliament’s approach of underlining the co-ordination role of the UN.
Finansrammen 2007-2013 I drøftelserne af finansrammen 2007-2013 er der meget fastlåste og stive holdninger i medlemslandene, sagde Juncker.
On the reconstruction side, I propose that €350m is made available.
Luxembourg vil gøre alt for at få finansrammen på plads under EU-topmødet 16.-17. juni 2005.
I had envisioned that part of this would come from fresh funds and part from a reprogramming of funds already planned for the affected countries.
(Red.: Finansrammen drejer sig om mere end 1.000 mia. euro og om at afskaffe UK-rabatten , som nu beløber sig til 4-7 mia. euro årligt.
Although the reconstruction task will take up several years, the financing of this reconstruction effort should be provided in this and next year.
Juncker fastslog, at det er nødvendigt med en løsning under det luxembourgske formandskab, idet manglen på en aftale i juni vil være en fiasko for hele EU.
The main reason is speed – the funds for projects planned for 2005 are already on the table and can be used for the urgent immediate reconstruction work.
"Forfatningens ånd" Formanden for EU-Kommissionen, portugiseren José Manuel BARROSO fastslog, at det luxembourgske EU-formandskab falder på et meget vigtigt tidspunkt, og han var glad for, at Jean-Claude Junckers fantastiske erfaring, europæiske overbevisning og konfliktløsningserfaring skal styre EU i det kommende halve år.
Waiting for fresh funds to come on stream will take up to six months – we need to move with reconstruction funds now.
Den 26. januar 2005 fremlægger EU-Kommissionen sit program for 2004-2009 i Europa-Parlamentet i Bruxelles - og det er et program som både gælder for Kommissionen og hele EU.
All donors are responding in the same way – including the World Bank – to leverage funds for tsunami as fast as possible.
Og vi arbejder allerede i "forfatningens ånd", sagde Barroso.
I also do not believe this approach will have any negative side effects.
Nej til "middelmådigt EU"!
Will this lead to a cancellation of already planned projects?
Barroso fokuserede på 3 punkter i der luxembourgske formandskabs program:
No – if governments decide with us that a tsunami related project takes immediate priority, the originally planned project can be taken up in 2006 or 2007, under the new financial perspective.
Midtvejsevaluering af "Lissabon-strategien" :
Will this lead to Asia robbing other regions of their funds?
Globaliseringen, den lave økonomiske vækst og den aldrende europæiske
In Indonesia, the Commission has a €35m programme which aims to improve access and quality of health care at the community level.
befolkning gør, at den europæiske velstand er truet.
If government agrees, this can be extended quickly to help rebuild and strengthen health care facilities damaged by the tsunami.
Vi har for mange prioriteter,
Similarly, this could be broadened quickly to help rehouse families displaced by the tsunami.
må strømline prioriteterne og fokusere på vækst og nye jobs.
But the Commission’s pledge was provisional and could be revisited once final costings are in.
for modernisering" med flere investeringer i viden.
The Commission will need to also address punctual and particular projects that will be better delivered by direct implementation rather than passing through the national budgets.
Finansrammen 2007-2013 : EU-topmødet i juni 2005 er deadline
For example, there may be some specific work that is started in the humanitarian phase that can be usefully continued under the initial reconstruction phase.
for beslutningen om finansrammen.
Alternatively, there may be specific conditions that prevent easy access for the national budget to certain geographic regions or indeed to the poorest communities who must benefit from this tsunami reconstruction.
Vi får ikke mere EU for færre penge.
Such cases would also warrant the continued channelling of a part of our funds through NGOs.
Lad os finansiere de forpligtelser, vi allerede har indgået.
In every successful emergency programme organised by the Commission, the Parliament has played a pivotal role.
at vi har nye tilbagestående regioner, som kræver solidaritet.
I recognise the importance placed by Parliament on additional measures beyond aid that the EU can provide to further help the countries affected by the tsunami.
Barroso kunne ikke støtte et "middelmådigt
The Member States and Commission agreed in the General Affairs Council to offer direct support to the countries in their efforts to develop early warning systems so they will be better able to respond to future natural disasters.
EU", som kører på "rabat-billet".
The Commission is also considering proposals for a new EU approach to reinforce capacity for disaster prevention.
Stabilitets- og vækstpagten : Indførelsen af den fælles
I welcome proposals for the development of a rapid response humanitarian capacity for the European Union which would permit it to enhance its assistance in future disasters and humanitarian crises.
Nu er det nødvendigt med nogle ændringer i pagten, idet det
My services are currently exploring whether vessels are available, what state of repair they are in and, if they meet the needs of the fishing communities in the tsunami affected areas, how they could be made available to fishermen in the tsunami affected areas.
er vigtigt at de fælles regler respekteres af alle.
I hope that this initiative will work and will report back to you with the results of our work.
Barroso sluttede med at fastslå, at EU's evne til fremtidig vækst testes i de kommende 6 måneder.
Last, but not least, we must recognise the political dimension of the tsunami crisis on the political problems in Aceh and in the north and east of Sri Lanka.
Vi skal genvinde borgernes tillid og vi skal styrke vor rolle på den internationale scene.
In doing that, we will of course pay due attention to the sensitivities of the two countries concerned. "
På bekostning af vore børn?
Political Group interventions
Under den politiske ordførerrunde sagde formanden for PPE-gruppen, tyskeren Hans-Gert PÖTTERING om "Lissabon-strategien" , at konkurrencedygtighed er en forudsætning for en god socialpolitik og for at skabe nye arbejdspladser.
Nirj DEVA (UK), for the EPP-ED group, reported that he had just returned from Sri Lanka and he expressed his gratitude to all those who had donated aid.
Om finansrammen 2007-2013 sagde han, at det er nødvendigt med flere midler til solidaritet, og hvordan skal vi klare flere udvidelser af EU, hvis vi ikke får en aftale om finansrammen i juni 2005?
Aid from EU countries, he said, now was close to €1.5bn and rising.
Det er nødvendigt med mere fleksibilitet om stabilitets- og vækstpagten.
He welcomed the initial €23m released by the EU and the further €350m promised.
I gode tider skal landenes gæld afdrages, for vi må ikke leve på bekostning af vore børn.
Mr Deva also welcomed the possibility of setting up a €1bn lending facility from the European Investment Bank.
Den luxembourgske socialist Robert GOEBBELS talte på vegne af socialistgruppen, og han sagde, at en beskyttet arbejdsplads er vigtig for lønmodtagerne - men også for virksomhedernes konkurrenceevne.
Mr Deva stressed the importance of " aid not being stolen " and ensuring accountable and transparent delivery mechanisms.
Om stabilitetspagten sagde han, at stabiliteten skal tilpasses den økonomiske konjunktur.
The need to end conflicts both in Aceh and Sri Lanka was highlighted by Mr Deva.
Goebbels havde store forventninger til det luxembourgske EU-formandskab, som står over for er "Herkules-arbejde".
He called for " a hand up and not merely a hand out. "
Watson fastslog, at Tyskland og Frankrig ikke må slippe med irettesættelser for deres overskridelse af 3 %-grænsen for offentlige underskud, og Grækenland må ikke slippe afsted med at have givet falske oplysninger om deres økonomi.
The tragedy underlined, he said, the " global village nature of the world " and the need for solidarity at a supranational level.
Stabilitetspagten skal håndhæves!
This is why the EU's contribution was particularly important.
"Lissabon-processen" bør styrkes, og Kommissionen skal hænge de lande ud, som ikke overholder reglerne.
He welcomed the reconstruction proposals from the Commission.
Den tyske grønne Daniel COHN-BENDIT ville gerne være med i en arbejdsgruppe om "Lissabon-strategien", hvor konkurrencedygtighed, varig vækst og social samhørighed bør gå hånd-i-hånd.
The most striking piece of news he had heard in recent days, he said, was the fact that the citizens of Beslan had raised 1 million rubles (€30 000) for the victims of the tragedy in Asia.
Cohn-Bendit tog afstand fra at sætte en øvre grænse for EU"s udgifter på 1 % af BNI, idet Europa vil tabe ved dette.
Graham WATSON (UK), for the ALDE group, also underlined that the " global tragedy required a global response ."
Nej til skattebetalt propaganda!
He stated that it would be a challenge for the United Nations.
Jens-Peter BONDE fra JuniBevægelsen fastslog, at Luxembourg plejer at høre til blandt de bedste EU-formandskaber.
He welcomed the initial EU response and the generous private and public aid.
Han håbede, at de ville fortsætte denne tradition og behandle tilhængere og modstandere af forfatningstraktaten ens.
He stressed the importance of pledges being fulfilled and cited that only 2 per cent of the money pledged after the earthquake in Bam in Iran had been spent.
I øjeblikket stjæler tilhængerne skatteydernes penge , men vi siger nej til skattebetalt propaganda.
In the future, the EU should be able to send infrastructure following major disasters including floating hospitals.
Over 150 MEP'er får ikke del i disse midler.
He also stressed that existing technology could save many lives if it were available in all nations.
Bonde sluttede med at spørge Jean-Claude Juncker, om han ville acceptere udfaldet af folkeafstemningerne - uanset resultatet.
Daniel COHN-BENDIT (DE), for the Greens/EFA group, stated that it was difficult to debate after such a tragedy.
Ordfører: Manuel MEDINA ORTEGA (PSE, ES)
Speaking for the GUE/NGL group, Vittorio Emanuele AGNOLETTO (IT) expressed concern that after the first few weeks had passed, there was a risk of cynical manipulation.
Procedure: Den fælles besluningsprocedure - Andenbehandling (***II)
Georgios KARATZAFERIS (EL) spoke for the Independence and Democracy group.
Kommissionen har fremsat forslag om ændring af Europa-Parlamentets og Rådets direktiv om ansvarsforsikring for motorkøretøjer.
We should, he said, bear in mind that the effects of the tsunami had been something like a nuclear holocaust in the worst affected places.
Formålet er at modernisere og forbedre de eksisterende EU-regler på området.
He said the disaster showed it was wrong to shift EU funding from basic research to space research, when the former was the best way to address the risk of future such catastrophes.
Europa-Parlamentet har på baggrund heraf vedtaget et forslag til lovgivningsmæssig beslutning udarbejdet af Manuel MEDINA ORTEGA (PSE, E) på vegne af Udvalget om det Indre Marked og Forbrugerbeskyttelse.
Sebastiano MUSUMECI (IT), for the UEN group, said it was vital for the EU to have a civil protection unit, to prevent the spectacle of the EU impotently standing by while the disaster affected areas asked for support.
Parlamentet går ind for at præcisere definitionerne vedrørende køretøjer og påhængsvogne.
This would be the best way to structure future aid to deal with natural disasters.
Det ønsker også at indføre et mindstebeløb for dækning ved personskade på EUR 1 mio. pr. skadelidt og EUR 5 mio. pr ulykke.
The non-aligned MEP Ryszard CZARNECK I (PL) said that in response to the disaster the citizens of Europe wanted honesty not empty speechifying.
Endelig kræver Parlamentet, at medlemsstaterne skal træffe alle nødvendige foranstaltninger med henblik på at etablere en hjemmeside, hvor alle rapporter om færdselsuheld, der er udfærdiget af politi og læger, registreres, og hvor de, når de frigives til retsmyndighederne, gøres offentligt tilgængelige.
He questioned whether United States support was more about polishing its image and re-establishing influence in the region than about help for the victims.
Oplysninger om hjemmesiden skal gøres tilgængelige for alle interesserede parter.
It was time to show solidarity and speedily send aid - slow, bureaucratic responses should be avoided.
Flodbølgekatastrofen i Sydøstasien:1,5 mia. fra EU og EU-landene
The disaster had shown we all had a shared fate in the global theatre of environmental risk.
Omfattende skader Den fungerende formand for Rådet, den luxembourgske udenrigsminister Jean ASSELBORN , mindede om de tragiske følger af flodbølgekatastrofen i Sydøstasien.
Having travelled to South India to see relief operations at first hand, she praised the EU's immediate response and also the selfless decision of the Indian government to say that aid should go as a priority to the worst affected countries.
Foreløbigt 160.000 omkomne, mindst 5 millioner hjemløse samt omfattende materielle skader.
In the longer run, however, it was vital that support for India should not be reduced to release funds for reconstruction elsewhere.
Mange af ofrene er børn.
Eoin RYAN (UEN, IE) welcomed the " extraordinary respon se" of governments and people around the world.
På den baggrund hilste han det velkommen, at EU og medlemsstaterne i samråd med FN og de berørte lande allerede har givet tilsagn om at yde godt 1,5 mia. EUR i bistand.
He called for military and civil resources to be made available in the future as the US had already done.
Hurtig og effektiv støtte Formanden for EU-Kommissionen, José Manuel BARROSO , fremhævede behovet for hurtig og konkret bistand i lyset af tragediens forfærdende omfang.
He called for lasting effective action including reform of the debt system.
Det er vigtigt at prioritere tsunami-projekterne uden at det går ud over andre projekter til støtte for verdens fattige, sagde han.
Glenys KINNOCK (PES, UK) was concerned " that money was being moved from one need to another, perhaps from Africa to Aceh ".
Efter hans opfattelse vil det i første omgang kunne ske ved at omprogrammere eksisterende bistandsprojekter i bl.a. Indonesien og Sri Lanka.
The resources, she said, had to be new additional money.
Støtten skal ydes hurtigt og effektivt uden unødigt bureaukrati, gerne gennem en fælles donorfond, sagde kommissionsformanden.
The money should not be taken away from fighting preventable diseases such as malaria.
José Manuel Barroso var positiv over for forslag om andre støtteforanstaltninger, herunder eftergivelse af gæld, ophævelse af handelsrestriktioner og støtte fra Den Europæiske Investeringsbank.
She called for the ACP to have their own disaster emergency faculty and was particularly concerned for the Seychelles and Somalia since EDF money might not be available for these countries.
Endelig bebudede han, at Kommissionen allerede i forbindelse med et møde i Rådet den 31. januar 2005 vil være rede til at drøfte et forslag om etablering af en humanitær reaktionsstyrke i EU.
There was, he said, a clear need for an EU Foreign Minister.
Hjælpen fra EU skal være synlig Nirj DEVA (PPE-DE, UK) var netop vendt tilbage efter et besøg i sit hjemland, Sri Lanka.
Senior EU leaders, he said, had not been visible in the region.
Han takkede for hjælpen, men advarede samtidig mod at beskære andre bistandsprojekter.
He also stressed the risk of taking donor aid for granted once media attention had died down.
Han ønskede, at bistanden fra EU skal være mere synlig.
The 0.7 per cent target of GNP to be allocated to developing countries should be met, he stated, by all EU countries and legislation should be brought in to ensure this.
Endelig understregede han, at aktive investeringer og ophævelse af handelsrestriktioner er den bedste form for langsigtet hjælp.
Responding to the debate for the Council, Nicolas SCHMIT , Deputy Minister for Foreign Affairs and Immigration of Luxembourg, thanked all those who had taken part.
Humanitær EU-reaktionsstyrke Formanden for PSE-gruppen, Martin SCHULZ (PSE, D) fandt, at EU bør spille en afgørende rolle i hjælpearbejdet, ikke mindst på grund af katastrofens globale eftervirkninger.
While the Council was sensitive to criticisms, he said, it was clear that the EU had not been passive or inactive.
Derfor støttede han også tanken om oprettelse af en europæisk humanitær reaktionsstyrke.
There had been a fast response at all levels.
Samtidig ønskede han at udbygge samarbejdet mellem medlemsstaternes ambassader og konsulater i tredjelande med henblik på at yde hjælp til nødstedte EU-borgere i tilsvarende situationer.
He promised the Council would continue to work closely with Parliament on this matter.
Endelig fremhævede han, at borgerne i byen Beslan, der for nyligt var udsat for et bestialsk terrorangreb, i et hjertevarmende eksempel på solidaritet har indsamlet et beløb svarende til 30.000 EUR til støtte for tsunami-ofrene.
He pointed to Wednesday morning's ' trialogue ' agreement to release a €100m tranche of aid as an example.
Globalt svar påkrævet En global katastrofe kræver et globalt svar, sagde formanden for ALDE-gruppen, Graham WATSON (ALDE, UK).
The decisions taken by the Council on 7 January would be followed up and all further measures which proved necessary would be taken, he said.
EU må vise sig denne opgave voksen og sørge for, at støtten kommer de berørte områder til gode, sagde han.
On specific points raised, he agreed on the need to strengthen EU aid coordination mechanisms and looked forward to the Commission's proposals on this at the next General Affairs Council meeting.
Samtidig understregede han behovet for at hjælpe de børn, som har mistet deres forældre ved flodbølgen.
He stated that support for children at risk was vital, and that work was going on in cooperation with UNICEF and various NGOs on this matter.
Et bedre varslingssystem er en nødvendighed for regionen, fastslog han.
He argued that internal conflicts in at least two of the affected countries should, at a minimum be prevented from disrupting aid delivery.
Bistand skal ledsages af konfliktforebyggelse Medformand for Gruppen De Grønne, Daniel COHN-BENDIT (Verts/ALE) understregede, at den humanitære bistand i bl.a. Indonesien og Sri Lanka må ledsages af en konfliktforebyggende indsats i de pågældende lande.
The Council, he said, would closely monitor the implementation of financial commitments and there was a meeting taking place the same day on debt relief.
