Den 7. november underskrev EP-formand Pat COX , den danske finansminister Thor PEDERSEN og den tyske EU-budgetkommissær Michaele SCHREYER en aftale, som vil frigive op til 1 mia. euro årligt til EU's katastrofefond - som også kaldes EU's solidaritetsfond - til katastroferamte områder i Europa.
The Environment Committee is proposing measures to tackle smoking but stresses that the emphasis should be put on reducing tobacco consumption by increasing consumer awareness.
Ideen til EU-katastrofefonden kom efter oversvømmelseskatastrofen i Tyskland, Østrig, Tjekkiet og Slovakiet i sensommeren 2002.
In an own-initiative draft resolution by Jules MAATEN (ELDR, NL) the committee makes a number of demands aimed at discouraging smoking, in particular by children and adolescents.
Bevillingen på 1 mia. euro til EU-katastrofefonden skal finansieres gennem tillægs- og ændringsbudget nr. 5/2002 .
Member States are urged to phase out tobacco vending machines and not to allow the use of promotional items such as ashtrays, lighters, tobacco samples and gifts.
Det ventes, at den italienske PPE'er Guido PODESTA - der er næstformand i EP - vil fremlægge en betænkning fra EP's budgetudvalg om tillægsbudget nr. 5/2002.
Appropriate price and tax measures on tobacco products should be introduced together with moves to eliminate the illicit trade in tobacco products, including smuggling and counterfeiting.
Den spanske PPE'er Joan COLOM I NAVAL - der også er EP-næstformand - vil fremlægge 2 betænkninger fra budgetudvalget.
In addition, national sporting and cultural events should not be sponsored by the tobacco industry.
Den ene drejer sig om finansieringen af katastrofefonden og den anden om budgetdisciplin .
The proposed recommendation follows from a commitment made by the Commission in the context of the conciliation on the Tobacco Sales Directive to address those aspects of tobacco control – related to public health – which were not covered by that directive.
Tilsætningsstoffer til foderstoffer: Forbud mod antibiotiske ”vækstfremmere”
The recommendation, which calls on the Member States to establish a comprehensive tobacco control policy, is based on Article 152(4) of the EU Treaty, which provides for optional consultation of Parliament.

Report on the proposal for a European Parliament and Council regulation on additives for use in animal nutrition

Procedure : Codecision procedure (1st reading)
Pligt for virksomhederne til at påvise , at produktet er effektivt og ikke udgør en risiko for dyrs og menneskers sundhed eller miljøet m.m.
For two specific substances used to treat poultry diseases, for which the Commission allows an open-ended derogation, the committee says they can be used until the end of 2008 and sets a final deadline of 1 January 2009 for banning them, provided no legislation has been passed to continue their use on the basis of a report to be submitted by 1 January 2008.
I en betænkning af den tyske CDU'er Hedwig KEPPELHOFF-WIECHERT godkender EP's landbrugsudvalg Kommissionens forslag, selv om man fremlægger en række ændringsforslag.
The committee agrees that antibiotics in animal feed must be banned because they enter the human food chain and contribute to the growing problem of resistance to antibiotics used in human medicine.
Ordføreren understreger, at det der er politisk væsentligt i denne sag, er forbuddet mod de 4 antibiotiske "vækstfremmere ", som er tilladt indtil 2006.
It welcomes this draft regulation on additives in animal nutrition, which is part of a raft of new food safety legislation, which fulfils a commitment made to Parliament by Health and Consumer Protection Commissioner David Byrne in 1999.
Selv om ordføreren principielt er indforstået med Kommissionens forslag, så finder hun det ikke passende, at man vil udstede en blancocheck for coccidiostatika for deres ubegrænsede anvendelse i fremtiden
However, the committee also wants to exclude pet foods from its scope and to allow the use of the banned additives (except antibiotics) in scientific experiments.

Forslag til Europa-Parlamentets og Rådets direktiv om vikaransattes arbejdsforhold
Report on the proposal for a Council Regulation concerning Community financial contributions to the International Fund for Ireland (2003-2004)
Direktivet gælder for offentlige og private virksomheder, der udøver økonomisk aktivitet, uanset om det er med sigte på fortjeneste.
The objectives of the IFI are to promote economic and social advance and to encourage contact, dialogue and reconciliation between Nationalists and Unionists throughout Ireland.
Passende rammer Kommissionen fastslår i artikel 2, at direktivet har 2 formål:
In the future the EU will:
at forbedre kvaliteten i vikaransættelsesforhold ved at sikre, at princippet om ikke-forskelsbehandling af vikarer overholdes og
continue the EU contributions of €15 million per year to the IFI, for a further period of 2 years.
at etablere passende rammer for anvendelsen af vikararbejdskraft for at bidrage til et velfungerende arbejdsmarked og til beskæftigelsen.
The proposed new period will therefore end in 2004, which would coincide with the end of the PEACE II Programme;
EIB's årsberetning 2001: Lånemængde: 36,8 mia. euro
French Overseas Departments: Dock Dues
Ordfører: Ieke van den BURG (PSE, NL)
Margie SUDRE (EPP-ED, F)
I en betænkning af den hollandske socialist Ieke van den BURG om den Europæiske Investeringsbanks - EIB - årsberetning for 2001 glæder EP's økonomiudvalg sig over, at EIB's Styrelsesråd har besluttet at forøge EIB's samlede kapital med 50 % til i alt 150 mia. euro .
The aim of this proposed regulation is to extend the exemption from dock dues in the French overseas departments.
EIB låner penge fra internationale kapitalmarkeder og udlåner dem til offentlige og private kunder, som investerer i projekter, der opfylder EU's mål.
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.
Projekter udgør ca. 5 % af de samlede investeringer i EU og anslås hvert år at skabe omkring 380.000 arbejdspladser inden for udvikling af infrastruktur og 40.000 arbejdspladser i små og mellemstore virksomheder.
Opposition has to be tabled in writing before the final draft agenda is drawn up by the Conference of Presidents on Thursday before the part-session.
EIB stod for 25 % af det europæiske marked for risikovillig kapital og fungerede dermed som katalysator for de samlede investeringer på ca. 3 mia.
The Conference of Presidents can also decide to apply the simplified procedure to other ”non-controversial” items at the final draft agenda stage.
Den beskedne stigning skyldes primært de begrænsede budgetmidler som følge af stabilitets- og vækstpagten , som afholder medlemslandene fra at udnytte EIB's fulde potentiale som katalysator for investering og dermed vækst og beskæftigelse.
The following reports are scheduled to be considered under the new rules which could also apply to other reports.
EU’s konkurrencepolitik: Tilfredshed med Kommissionens arbejde!
Boost for Energy Savings Programme
EP's økonomiudvalg er godt tilfreds med EU-Kommissionens 31. beretning om EU's konkurrencepolitik, som vidner om det udmærkede arbejde Kommissionens tjenestegrene udfører.
The Industry Committee is backing "Intelligent Energy for Europe", an action programme which is to run from 2003 to 2006 and replace measures under the ALTENER, SAVE and SYNERGY programmes.
Det fremgår af en betænkning af den franske grønne Alain LIPIETZ om den 31. årsberetning, som dækker 2001.
However, MEPs are calling for a number of changes to the Commission proposal.
Man henviser endvidere til, at flere års forhandlinger mellem EU og Sydkorea om indførelse af fair konkurrence på markedet for skibsbygning har været resultatløse.
First, they want increased funding for the programmes.
Økonomiudvalget anmoder endvidere Kommissionen om at overveje indførelse af en ny ordning, hvorefter den endelige afgørelse i fusionssager - herunder fastlæggelse af betingelser - efterprøves af et sådant uafhængigt organ efter en fremskyndet procedure , hvilket vil give de berørte virksomheder og deres konkurrenter øget retssikkerhed.
For ALTENER, SAVE and STEER, the committee proposes an extra €25 million compared to the Commission's figures.
"Resultattavlen" for statsstøtte 2001: 82 mia. euro i statsstøtte! - over 80 % af EU-budgettet!
A further €15 million is proposed for the COOPENER renewable energy programme.
Mellem 1988 og 2001 offentliggjorde EU-Kommissionen årsrapporter om statsstøtte i EU .
The committee also thinks an overall increase from €215 million to €255 million is needed to cover management costs of an Executive Agency.
For at forbedre gennemskueligheden - og fremme debatten - har Kommissionen indført 2 nye instrumenter, nemlig registret over statsstøtte og "resultattavlen ".
The candidate countries must be included in the programme, say MEPs, as renewable energy is practically non-existent in these countries and policy and legal frameworks are lacking.
I en betænkning af den franske GUE'er Philippe HERZOG om statsstøtte-"resultattavlen " for 2001 fastslår EP's økonomiudvalg, at statsstøttepolitikken i EU er et led i konkurrencepolitikken, men den skal samtidig opfylde andre af EU's målsætninger - herunder konkurrenceevne, vækst og beskæftigelse samt samhørighed.
A horizontal (i.e. inter-DG) task force should be set up to ensure co-ordination between the various fields of the programme, linkage with other EU policies and utilisation of the project results for the preparation of future legislative measures.
Konkurrenceforvridning Økonomiudvalget støtter målet om nedsættelse af enhver form for statsstøtte , der ydes af stater - eller i form af statslige midler - og som forvrider eller truer med at forvride konkurrencen gennem begunstigelse af bestemte virksomheder.
Dissemination of and access to information should be guaranteed by the budget and potential future participants should be chosen according to transparent criteria.
Økonomiudvalget ønsker at sikre loyal konkurrence i EU, og afviser derfor udtrykkeligt enhver form for statsstøtte.
MEPs are also calling for the establishment of a European Intelligent Energy Agency, to be responsible for strategic thinking for the development, promotion and implementation of technological measures.
Herzog-betænkningen blev vedtaget enstemmigt i økonomiudvalget.
The existing energy framework programme, with a budget of €175 million, was adopted in 1998 and expires on 31 December 2002.
Den var på 82 mia. euro i 2000 , hvilket udgør 0,99 % af EU's BNP - og ca. 82 % af EU-budgettet for 2003! .
SAVE (Special Action Programme for Vigorous Energy Efficiency), mainly directed at the building industry and other industries - €75 million;
Forskellen mellem medlemslandene mindskes, men der er dog stadig store nationale forskelle med 1,44 % i Finland og 0,46 % i Storbritannien.
ALTENER (Promotion of renewable energy sources) - €86 million;
Kommissionen har registreret over 1.000 tilfælde af statsstøtte i 2001.
STEER (Energy aspects of transport) - €35 million;
Den statsstøtte, der skal tilbagebetales - 3,26 mia. euro - er koncentreret på 2 EU-lande, nemlig Tyskland og Italien.
COOPENER (Renewable energy and energy efficiency in developing countries) - €19 million.
Tredjelandsborgere med lovlig bopæl i EU:Vælger Danmark "opt-in"?
Fisheries Agreement EC/Sao Tomé and Principe
Ordfører: Ria OOMEN-RUIJTEN (PPE-DE, NL)
Carlos LAGE (PES, P)
EU-charteret I en betænkning af den hollandske PPE'er Ria OOMEN-RUIJTEN godkender EP's beskæftigelsesudvalg Kommissionens forslag, selv om man fremlægger 5 ændringsforslag.
The committee is in favour of broadly approving the proposal subject to a few amendments.
I ændringsforslag 1 fastslår udvalget, at denne forordning bekræfter anvendelsesområdet for EU-charteret, hvori det hedder, at "enhver, der har bopæl og bevæger sig lovligt i EU, har ret til sociale sikringsydelser og sociale fordele i overensstemmelse med EU-lovgivningen og medlemsstaternes lovgivning og praksis".
The committee is concerned that Parliament should be provided with better information to enable it to carry out its duties and therefore stipulates that, before any agreement on renewal of the protocol, the Commission should submit to Parliament and Council a general assessment report on the implementation of the Agreement, including a cost benefit analysis.
"Opt-in" og Danmark Ordføreren glæder sig over, at Storbritannien og Irland har oplyst, at de ønsker at deltage i denne forordning via muligheden for "opt-in".
The draft resolution calls for the Protocol to incorporate the social clauses adopted by the sea fishing industry Social Dialogue Committee in December 2001 guaranteeing equal treatment for both EU and non-EU seamen sailing on EU vessels in such matters as freedom of association, collective bargaining and living and working conditions.
Desværre er Danmark i princippet udelukket fra at deltage i forslagene.
Scientific Research in the Candidate Countries
Ordfører: Jules MAATEN (ELDR, NL)
Jürgen ZIMMERLING (EPP-ED, D)
Tobaksindustriens interesser I ændringsforslag 2 fastslår udvalget, at effektive foranstaltninger til bekæmpelse af tobaksrygning reducerer tobaksforbruget og går derfor stik imod interesserne i den økonomisk stærke tobaksindustri .
The committee also urges the Commission and Member States to encourage links between research and industry via co-financing, flexible career planning, private research entities and the funding of research through industrial associations in the candidate countries.
Man er af den opfattelse, at der bør vedtages "formålstjenlige lovgivningsmæssige eller administrative foranstaltninger eller fremme frivillige aftaler med henblik på at forbyde salg af tobak til især børn og unge og give forbrugerne udtømmende og korrekt oplysning om sundhedsfaren ved tobaksforbrug (ændringsforslag 3).
The Commission should help to create a favourable financial environment so that the ability of SMEs to participate in the Programme is not diminished either by the need to obtain bank guarantees or by the burden of assuming a significant share of co-financing.
Endvidere går man ind for en gradvis udfasning af brugen af salgsautomater med tobaksvarer (ændringsforslag 4).
The committee also calls on the candidate countries to develop a research strategy of their own, either directly by way of assistance payments or indirectly by way of incentives, that would meet their requirements in the area of research.
Passivrygning Miljøudvalget mener, at man bør udbygge oplysnings- og bevidstgørelseskampagner , herunder om den passive rygnings skadevirkninger , samt generelle programmer, som skal modvirke rygning (ændringsforslag 12).
The draft resolution points out that twelve of the candidate countries were involved in the 5th Framework Programme and they, together with Turkey, would be taking part in the 6th Framework Programme.
Endvidere bør man fremme økonomisk rentable alternativer for tobaksavlerne og fremme gradvis erstatning af tobaksstøtten med alternativer (ændringsforslag 17).
Efficient planning is needed as economic uncertainty and restrictive budgetary policies in the applicant countries has placed national research systems under enormous strain.
Forbrydelse at ryge?
Christa RANDZIO-PLATH (PES, D)
Jules Maaten mener, at cigaretforbruget bør begrænses gennem en bevidstgørelse af forbrugerne , og at en begrænsning af producenternes muligheder for at reklamere for tobaksvarer og oplysning af forbrugerne er af stor betydning.
Reporting for the Economic and Monetary Affairs Committee Christa RANDZIO-PLATH (PES, D) will be recommending approval of a proposal to extend a 1999 directive allowing the Member States to levy a reduced rate of VAT on labour intensive services such as hairdressers, with a view to creating jobs.
Støtte til tobaksavlen Jules Maaten slutter med at gøre opmærksom på det urimelige forhold, at man på den ene side fører en politik, som tager sigte på at begrænse forbruget af tobaksvarer , og på den anden side fortsat yder en stor støtte til tobaksavlen i EU.
The Commission is, therefore, proposing to extend the legislation for another year i.e. until 31 December 2003 and adopt a final recommendation when the assessment reports have been completed.

Medlemsstatut, mundtlig forespørgsel af BARÓN CRESPO og SCHULZ
As the Court puts it, ”the existence of these errors stem from shortcomings in the systems put in place by the Commission and Member States for the management of Community funds.”

In its report, the Court found that the accuracy of declarations supporting payments made by farmers and other recipients have not improved compared with previous years.
* Strukturforanstaltninger for fiskeriet, betænkning af SUANZES-CARPEGNA
The Integrated Administration and Control System (IACS) has still not been completely implemented by all Member States, and the bovine identification systems scheduled for January 2000 were not introduced on time.

As regards structural measures, continuing errors in the Member States' declarations of expenditure stem from weaknesses in the control systems.

11:30 - 12:00 Højtideligt møde, tale af Alejandro Toledo, præsident for Republikken Peru
President of Peru to address Parliament
12:00 Fortsat afstemning
Address by Mr TOLEDO , President of the Republic of Peru
Onsdag den 4. december kl. 15 vil formanden for EU's Revisionsret Juan Manuel FABRA VALLÉS fremlægge Revisionsrettens årsberetning for 2001 .
The President of Peru Alejandro Toledo will address the House on Thursday.
I starten af november mødte han op i EP's budgetkontroludvalg i Bruxelles, hvor han afslørede en del af indholdet i årsberetningen for 2001.
Alejandro TOLEDO , one of 16 children, was born in 1946, in Cabana, a small town in the highland department of Ancash, Peru.
Han pegede på, at der er uudnyttede bevillinger på EU-budgettet for 2001 på 15 mia. euro , hvilket især skyldtes forsinkelser i gennemførelsen af strukturpolitikken.
On a scholarship, he obtained his Bachelor's degree in economics at San Francisco State University.
Han opfordrede Kommissionen til fremover at være mere realistisk i sin budgetplanlægning.
He then went on to earn two Master's degrees and a Ph.D. in human resource economics at Stanford University in the US.
Fabra Vallés pegede også på svaghederne i Kommissionens regnskabssystem , hvilket Kommissionen også selv erkender.
During the past 20 years, Dr. Toledo has worked as a consultant for numerous international organisations including the United Nations, the World Bank, the Inter-American Development Bank, the International Labour Organisation, and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.
Den tyske EU-budgetkommissær Michaele SCHREYER har oplyst, at Kommissionen snart vil gennemføre en regnskabsreform.
Dr. Toledo served as a full-time Professor at the School of Business Administration, a prestigious post-graduate economics institute in Lima.
