Insurance requirements for air carriers and aircraft operators
Ordfører: Jaime VALDIVIELSO DE CUÉ (PPE-DE, E)
Jim NICHOLSON (EPP-ED, Northern Ireland)
Kommissionens sjette rapport til Rådet om situationen inden for verdens skibsbygningsindustri
Report on the proposal for a European Parliament and Council regulation on insurance requirements for air carriers and aircraft operators
EP vedtog en betænkning af den spanske PPE'er Jaime VALDIVIELSO DE CUÉ om Kommissionens 6. rapport om situationen inden for skibsbygningsindustrien.
Despite resistance by the Commission, Parliament decided to adopt this report including amendment 14, thus demanding smaller insurance categories for smaller aircraft.
Det fremgår af rapporten, at der er sket en væsentlig forøgelse af den illoyale konkurrence fra Sydkorea , hvor eksportpriserne ligger 25-30 % lavere end hjemmemarkedsprisen.
A great number of MEPs took the view that the minimum insurance premiums proposed would constitute an unbearable burden for this category, which in the light of the consequences of 11 September 2001 and SARS should at any price be avoided.
Fald på 77 % EU er meget hårdt ramt af faldet i den globale efterspørgsel i 2002, idet ordretilgangen på skibe bygget i EU er faldet med 77 % .
This provision shall apply mutatis mutandis to aircraft operators, where the aircraft is registered in the Community.
EU's markedsandel inden for skibsbygning er faldet fra 19 % i 2000 til kun 10 % i første kvartal af 2002.
Amendments were also adopted on issues such as third country air carriers and a call for Member States to oblige overfliers to meet the same requirement as those laid down in the regulation.
Betænkningen blev vedtaget med 421 stemmer mod 47, medens 5 undlod at stemme.
It was also felt that third country aircraft not meeting the conditions of the regulation should be refused access to routes to, or within, the EU.
Virksomhedernes sociale ansvar:Bidrag til bæredygtig udvikling
Press enquiries: Ton Huyssoon (Strasbourg) tel.(33) 3 881 74005 (Brussels) tel.(32-2) 28 42408 e-mail : region-press@europarl.eu.int
EP vedtog en betænkning af den britiske konservative Philip BUSHILL-MATTHEWS om en meddelelse fra EU-Kommissionen om virksomhedernes sociale ansvar og deres bidrag til en bæredygtig udvikling.
To avoid the recurrence of such a situation in the future, Parliament wants sanctions to be imposed only following a joint decision by the representatives of the EU and ACP countries.
EP glæder sig over Kommissionens oplæg og dens forsøg på at fastlægge en EU-ramme for at fremme miljømæssigt og socialt forsvarlig praksis i virksomhederne .
On a positive note, however, MEPs draw attention to the "Cape Town Declaration" with its emphasis on including the development needs of ACP states.
Komite-proceduren: På vej mod en endelig løsning
Implementing legislation - back to committee
Forslag til Rådets afgørelse om ændring af afgørelse 1999/468/EF om fastsættelse af de nærmere vilkår for udøvelsen af de gennemførelsesbeføjelser, der tillægges Kommissionen
Report on the proposal for a Council decision on amending Decision 1999/468/EC laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission
EP henviste en betænkning af det britiske labourmedlem Richard CORBETT om et forslag fra EU-Kommissionen om at ændre den eksisterende ordning for komite-proceduren - komitologi - til fornyet udvalgsbehandling.
Parliament decided to refer this proposal back to committee for further discussions after Commissioner Margot Wallström said she could only accept a number of amendments.
Problemet blev skabt i 1960'erne og 1970'erne, hvor man skabte et system, hvorved Kommissionen kunne uddelegere sine gennemførelsesbeføjelser til komiteer bestående af nationale repræsentanter.
At issue, is the Commission's commitment to modify any changes to implementing measures to take account of Parliament's views, with the Commission at this stage only prepared to " possibly " agree to this.
Da Kommissionen ikke kunne acceptere alle EP's ændringer, henviste EP imidlertid Corbett-betænkningen til fornyet udvalgsbehandling.

Forenkling af EU-lovgivningen:EU-miljøaftaler
Alternatives to environmental legislation
EP vedtog en betænkning af den italienske socialist Guido SACCONI om en meddelelse fra EU-Kommissionen om miljøaftaler på EU-niveau .
Parliament adopted a non-binding resolution on ‘Simplifying and Improving the Regulatory Environment’.
Kommissionen foreslår anvendelse af 2 typer frivillige aftaler på miljøområdet - nemlig selvreguleringsaftaler og samreguleringsaftaler.
Under new rule 110a, any legislative proposal (first reading) and any non-legislative motion for a resolution adopted in committee with fewer than one-tenth of the members of the committee voting against, shall be placed on the draft agenda of Parliament for vote without amendment.
Selvregulering består i frivillige aftaler, medens frivillige aftaler indgået inden for rammerne af en formel bindende retsakt derimod kaldes samregulering.
The item shall then be subject to a single vote unless, before the drawing up of the final draft agenda, political groups or individual Members who together constitute one-tenth of the Members of Parliament have requested in writing that the item be open to amendment, in which case the President shall fix a deadline for tabling amendments.

Der var også enighed om, at man bør lære af de bitre erfaringer med uenigheden mellem EU-landene om krigen i Irak og fremover sikre større enighed mellem EU's medlemslande.
Opening the debate on Iraq, Commissioner Poul NIELSON responsible for humanitarian aid outlined the humanitarian situation following his recent visit to Iraq.
Humanitære situation Den danske EU-udviklingskommissær Poul NIELSON indledte debatten med at gøre rede for den humanitære situation i Irak.
Since 1992, and prior to the latest conflict in Iraq, he said the EU had spent €157m on humanitarian aid in the country.
Han havde netop været på besøg i Irak ugen forinden og kunne berette, at den humanitære situation ikke er så slem som forventet, og at der ikke er tale om nogen katastrofe.
This amount, he pointed out, was in addition to the " oil for food programme ".
Der har ikke været de store folkevandringer, og der er færre personskader end forventet.
The EU had now secured €100m for humanitarian aid post-war, €22.5m of that amount was now being spent on improving the water and sanitation systems.
Men der er dog tale om en vanskelig og skrøbelig situation - især i byerne .
The remaining €77.5m would be allocated according to needs.
Rent vand EU har afsat 100 mio. euro til humanitær støtte i Irak.
The Commissioner said that a new ECHO office was being set up in Baghdad to manage some of the reconstruction projects and humanitarian aid.
Han understregede, at rent vand er det største problem, ligesom det er et reelt problem at give folk sikkerhed, når de skal på arbejde.
He said it was the responsibility of the occupying powers to maintain law and order, but the EU's role on the ground was the key due to its experience and financial clout.
Endvidere skal man genoprette sundhedssystemet og afminere landet.
Overall, he said, the EU was well placed to deliver humanitarian aid successfully following its work in other areas of the world, such as the Ivory Coast, Afghanistan, East Timor and Kosovo.
Plyndringer Den græske udenrigsminister Tassos GIANNITSIS fastslog, at de militære aktiviteter i Irak i det store og hele er afsluttet, og at det nu drejer sig om humanitær bistand og at genoprette lov og orden i landet.
After expressing his condemnation of the recent terrorist attacks in Saudi Arabia and Chechnya, Tassos GIANNITSIS , speaking on behalf of Council, acknowledged that there were still considerable difficulties to overcome in Iraq with regards to the reconstruction of the country.
Inden for FN er der afsat 1,7 mia. $ til genopbygning, ligesom EU har afsat 100 mio. euro.
In this sense, he drew attention to the $1.7bn allocated via the UN to the reconstruction process, although he recognised that at the moment there was not a clear picture regarding Iraq's needs.
Giannitsis var chokeret over plyndringerne af museer og kulturelle værdier i Irak, og understregede, at den sociale og kulturelle arv i Irak bør bevares.
He then emphasised the importance of establishing political will between the EU states and the need for all sides to pull together.
Giannitsis fastslog, at FN bør spille en central rolle i genopbygningen af Irak.
The EU, he said, will continue to play an important role and it was vital to ensure that available funds will be used to the benefit of all Iraqi people.
EU bør fremover føre en fælles politik over for Irak, og man bør undgå uenighed mellem EU-landene.
He then drew conclusions from the recent events in Iraq and emphasised the importance of not only re-establishing a role for the UN but also for repairing relations between EU Member States so that the EU could play a positive role in any future international crisis.
Bitre erfaringer Under ordførerrunden spurgte den tyske CDU'er Hans-Gert PÖTTERING om, hvad vi kan lære af de bitre erfaringer med Irak-krigen.
For the EPP-ED group, Hans-Gert POETTERING (D) condemned the recent terrorist attacks in Saudi Arabia and Chechnya, stating that it was not terrorism against the US, but terrorism against all civilised people.
Han tog afstand fra defaitisme og understregede, at vi bør gøre det bedre i fremtiden.
He said the recent crisis in the international community should be considered as an opportunity for the EU to rebuild its foreign policy, not as an " antagonistic " opposition to the US, but as an equal partner.
Inden enkelte EU-lande lægger sig fast på en national holdning, bør man først have en debat i EU-regi.
He underlined the importance of avoiding a clash of religion and civilisation.
Pöttering understregede, at Europa ikke skal opbygge et modsætningsforhold til USA, men at vi bør være en ligeberettiget partner med USA .
However, Mr Pottering was critical of the US with regard to the lack of success in finding weapons of mass destruction.
Han erindrede om, at man endnu ikke havde fundet masseødelæggelsesvåben i Irak, hvilket jo havde været hovedårsagen til krigen.
Enrique BARÓN CRESPO (E), for the PES group, also condemned the attacks in Saudi Arabia and Chechnya.
Formanden for socialistgruppen, spanieren Enrique BARON pegede på, at man må skelne mellem humanitær bistand og genopbygningen i Irak.
He also paid tribute to the 14 journalists who lost their lives during the Iraq conflict.
Han fastslog, at koalitionen udgør en besættelsesstyrke i et besat land, og at der er grænser for koalitionens autoritet.
He said it was " a shame " that the House had refused to agree a motion for a resolution, since he shared many of the views of the EPP-ED group.
Derfor tilkommer der FN og FN's Sikkerhedsråd en vigtig rolle.
He agreed with Commissioner Nielson that there should be a clear distinction made between immediate humanitarian aid and the long-term reconstruction of Iraq.
Han understregede, at eksportindtægterne fra den irakiske olie bør komme det irakiske folk til gode.
He also stressed that Iraqi oil belonged to the Iraqi people, and the revenue should be returned to the Iraqis.
Legitim regering Formanden for den liberale gruppe, skotten Graham WATSON udtrykte glæde over, at Saddam Hussein var faldet, og nu skal det irakiske folk opbygge deres land som et fredeligt land.
For the Liberals, Graham WATSON (South West) emphasised the importance of the EU adopting a united position in its contribution to the rebuilding of Iraq.
Men genopbygningen er ikke mulig uden FN, som skal bidrage til at indsætte en legitim regering, hvilket ikke skal ske gennem den selvudnævnte besættelsesmagt .
It was, he said, essential to put aside recent divisions so that the EU could contribute positively to establishing peace in the region along with the UN.
Vi skal vinde freden, og legitimitet kan kun komme fra en FN-resolution.
Here he underlined the need to build on the present draft resolution before the UN to ensure that the UN would indeed play a key role and not just endorse the authority of the occupying powers.
Bush's nye doktrin Den franske GUE'er Francis WURTZ kritiserede George W. Bush's nye strategiske doktrin, som er en kynisk doktrin om den stærkes magt , og Europa må her påtage sig sit ansvar.
He warned that Iraq was facing numerous crises with regard to the provision of water and electricity and that there was a need to establish law and order through a proper police force and restore the capacity of hospitals.
Han beklagede kaos, plyndringer og den militære besættelse i Irak, og mente, at vi bør have en debat om, hvor "forebyggende krige" - som i Irak - fører hen.
At the same time, he welcomed the new US commitment to establishing peace in Israel and Palestine with the visit of Colin Powell.
Kaos Den hollandske grønne Joost LAGENDIJK pegede på, at den officielle begrundelse for krigen var masseødelæggelsesvåben, men man havde jo ikke fundet nogen.
Francis WURTZ (F), speaking for the EUL/NGL, on the other hand felt there was a need for the European Parliament to look seriously at the whole future of international relations in the wake of the new Bush doctrine.
Han fastslog, at der er kaos i Irak, og at USA og Storbritannien ikke ved, hvad de skal gøre.
He expressed concern about recent developments in Iraq where, he said, joy after liberation had now been replaced by anger.
Den irske UEN'er Gerard COLLINS understregede, at FN bør spille en central rolle i genopbygningen af Irak, og at FN ikke bør underordnes besættelsesmagterne USA og Storbritannien.
Jan Joost LAGENDIJK (NL), for the Greens, drew attention to the failure to discover weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and felt that the UN should be charged with this task.
EU-landene bør enes om genopbygningen af Irak og glemme tidligere splittelse.
He was another speaker to emphasise the importance of the EU playing a full part in the reconstruction of Iraq.
Jungleloven Jens-Peter BONDE fra JuniBevægelsen fastslog, at læren af Irak-krigen ikke er at kopiere USA, men at løsningen er at stå sammen for at styrke FN, som skal have en udrykningsstyrke, hvori EU's udrykningsstyrke indgår.
For the UEN, Gerard COLLINS (Munster) drew attention to the US commitment to establish a transitional civilian government in Iraq by the 3 June 2003 and indeed welcomed the draft resolution at present before the UN.
Vi skal finde krigsforbryderne, som skal for Krigsforbryderdomstolen.
It was vital for the UN to play a key role in the reconstruction of Iraq, he said, and indeed for the EU to make its own contribution.
Vi bør værne om lov og ret mellem landene og undgå jungleloven, sluttede Bonde.
Sanctions should be lifted immediately and the International Atomic Energy Agency should be re-established in Iraq.
Tak til USA!
It was important for the oil revenues to be used for the reconstruction of the country.
Ole ANDREASEN fra Venstre takkede USA for den militære aktion, som havde fjernet et ondt styre.
Indeed he felt without a key role for the UN, there would be an absence of international legitimacy for the future of the country.
Ironiker Ole KRARUP fra Folkebevægelsen mod EU kommenterede Ole Andreasens indlæg, og han mente, at Ole Andreasen var en stor ironiker.
Jonathan EVANS (Wales), for the British Conservatives, paid tribute to the 172 soldiers who lost their lives during the conflict as well as all the military forces.
Surrealismen i denne debat ligger i, at EU ikke har nogen fælles udenrigspolitik, og at EP ikke har nogen indflydelse på den, mente Ole Krarup.
He said that the Iraqi conflict had proved that it was impossible for the EU to speak with one voice, and he regretted those Member States who had tried to undermine the EU-US relationship, citing the recent summit of four Member States on defence policy.
Polens præsident i EP:"EU skal respekteres på den internationale scene!"
He said the transatlantic relationship should remain the " bedrock " of Western security.
Onsdag den 14. maj 2003 holdt Polens præsident Aleksander KWASNIEWSKI en tale i Europa-Parlamentet i Strasbourg.
He also said the debate had not recognised that the Iraqi people had been liberated and now there was a degree of religious tolerance in the country.
Europa vokser sammen - og det sker nu.
Patricia McKENNA (Greens/EFA, Dublin) said the Iraqi war had no justification and it contravened international law.
Kwasniewski pegede på, at ingen har gjort mere for den kommende udvidelse end Europa-Parlamentet, der er stedet, hvor mange nationaliteter udveksler erfaringer.
She also said that, prior to the conflict, Iraq had a good education system open to boys and girls, and called for urgent assistance in re-establishing the education system in Iraq.
Vi har en fælles arv - men der er også stor mangfoldighed, og viljen til samarbejde er Europas styrke.
Proinsias DE ROSSA (PES, Dublin) stated that he had always opposed the war, and now he opposed the direction the US was taking post-conflict.
EP er et mangesproget og mangenationalt parlament.
He said that the world had to return to the rule of international law.
Parlamentarisk tradition Den polske præsident erindrede om, at Polen har en parlamentarisk tradition, som går tilbage til det 15. århundrede.
He also said the EU would have to try to reconcile those who believe in a " multi-polar " world and those who believe in a " uni-polar " world.
Polen har en turbulent fortid, hvor man ofte har været bytte for andre magter.
He welcomed a strong transatlantic relationship with the EU playing an equal role.
Men efter sovjetisk dominans er vi nu med i en gruppe af venlige og samarbejdsvillige lande.
He condemned those who wanted to see the EU as a junior partner and criticised some parts of the US administration for its " anti-French hysteria . "
De totalitære systemer er fjernet efter blodløse revolutioner i Østeuropa.
Jim NICHOLSON (EPP-ED, Northern Ireland) focused on Europe's relations with the USA, which he said were at an " all time low ".
Udfordringer Vest- og Østeuropa bliver nu partnere om frihed og demokrati, og med 450 millioner indbyggere bliver EU en ægte verdensmagt, som vi bør være stolte af.
He felt that both sides had tended to drift apart, concentrating on their own priorities, with the US preoccupied with terrorism post-9/11 and the EU concerned with the introduction of the euro and enlargement.
EU står over for udfordringer som:
Poland's President optimistic for the future
europæisk forfatning,
Address by Mr Aleksander Kwasniewski, President of the Republic of Poland

Turning to the present day, he emphasised the universal value of freedom and democracy.
opbygningen af en udenrigs- og forsvarspolitik.
The united Europe is not just about a common market, not just about funds and direct payments, but above all about a commonality of values" .
Vi har derfor behov for hinandens erfaringer med en fælles vision om solidaritet og gensidig respekt.
He recognised the challenges ahead in the shape of the European constitution, the Lisbon Strategy for Growth and Employment, the reform of the CAP and the development of a Foreign and Security Policy.
Europa-USA Kwasniewski pegede på, at USA 2 gange har hjulpet Europa med at vinde freden og fjernet totalitære regimer.
For progress to be made, he underlined, the importance of decisions being taken on the basis of the "Community method ".
Og det er nødvendigt med et samarbejde mellem Europa og USA for sikkerheden i verden og en velafbalanceret udvikling i verden.
Turning to foreign policy, Mr Kwasniewski paid tribute to the role of the US in contributing to peace and security in Europe over the past 50 years.
Men EU må vokse i styrke og skabe en udenrigs- og forsvarspolitik, og Polen ønsker fuldt ud at spille sin rolle på dette område.
As he put it "the important question of the shape of our transatlantic relations cannot cloud the chances Europe's cooperation with American offers to mankind" .
EU skal respekteres på den internationale scene.
He warned that the end of such cooperation would be bleak for international relations and indeed for the future of the United Nations.
Væksten i Polens økonomi Den polske præsident oplyste, at Polens BNP er vokset med 50 % siden 1990, og at 75 % af økonomien nu ligger i den private sektor.
As to the future of the EU as such, the present scale of enlargement would only be complete with the accession of Romania, Bulgaria and later the entire Balkans.
70 % af Polens udenrigshandel foregår med EU, og siden 1990 har der været 65 mia. $ i fremmede investeringer i Polen.
Furthermore, he emphasised, the important question of future relations with Turkey and cooperation with the EU 's new neighbours in Eastern Europe.
Der er potentiale i Polens unge befolkning, hvor der er 2 millioner studerende på universiteterne.
Poland's Eastern border would soon become the longest land border of an enlarged European Union.
Europas udvidelse er ikke et problem, men en enorm mulighed.
He then emphasised Poland's commitment to using enlargement to bring East and West closer together quoting from Pope Jean-Paul II "Europe must breath deeply with both lungs - the Eastern and the Western one" .
