Om: Off plan-byggeprojekter
Subject: ‘Off plan’ housing developments
EU har givet sine borgere en enestående adgang til at rejse, bo og arbejde i hele Europa.
The European Union has given its citizens unrivalled access to travel, live and work throughout the continent.
Som følge heraf har en lang række mennesker valgt at købe fast ejendom i andre medlemsstater.
Consequently, large numbers of individuals have chosen to purchase property in other Member States.
I mange områder er huspriserne følgelig boomet, og det har desværre tiltrukket skrupelløse byggeentreprenører, som ser disse borgere, der flytter til udlandet, som et let mål.
In many localities house prices have boomed as a result and this unfortunately has attracted unscrupulous property developers, who see these expatriates as easy targets.
En række borgere, der er flyttet til udlandet, herunder nogle af mine vælgere, er blevet fristet til at investere i off plan-ejendomme (der altså endnu ikke er bygget) efter at have set farvestrålende reklamer kun for efterfølgende at se det hele falde til jorden og med kun et ringe håb om at få deres oprindelige investering tilbage.
A number of expatriates, including some of my constituents, have been tempted to invest in ‘off plan’ (i.e. not yet built) properties after seeing glossy advertisements, only to have the deal fall through, with little hope of recovering their original investment.
Har Kommissionen nogen planer om at skabe yderligere beskyttelse for huskøbere og om at stramme lovgivningen om reklame og salg af sådanne off plan-byggeprojekter?
Does the Commission have any plans to provide further protection for house buyers, and to tighten legislation on the advertisement and sale of such ‘off plan’ developments?

Om: Hindringer for vedtagelsen i Italien af EU-­bestemmelser med krav om, at ledende bankfolk skal være velrenommerede
Subject: In Italy, obstacles to the adoption of EU rules on the requirement for senior bank officials to be of good repute
Både forbrugerorganisationerne og medierne er målløse over »Geronzi-sagen«, hvor en indflydelsesrig bankmand for nylig er blevet udnævnt til stillingen som formand for Mediobancas tilsynsråd trods en dom i første instans for meddelagtighed i Italcase-Bagaglinos konkurs og et sagsanlæg, en diskvalifikation og en suspendering i forbindelse med Parmalats og Cirios kollaps.
The ‘Geronzi affair’ (involving a powerful banker who has recently been elevated to the post of chairman of the Mediobanca Supervisory Council, despite a conviction at first instance for complicity in the Italcase-Bagaglino bankruptcy and a committal for trial, a disqualification and a suspension in connection with the collapse of Parmalat and Cirio) has been greeted with incredulity both by consumers' associations and by the media.
Økonomiminister Padoa Schioppas forsøg på at fastsætte strengere kriterier for ledere i banksektoren har mødt modstand fra magtfulde personer i den italienske bankverden.
The attempt by the Economic Affairs Minister Padoa Schioppa to establish stricter criteria for senior posts in banking has come under pressure from powerful figures in the Italian banking world.

Om: Europæisk program af typen »Work and Travel«
Subject: A European programme along the lines of ‘Work and Travel’
De kan således tjene mange penge, samtidig med at de besøger et land.
Participation in it allows these students to make considerable savings and, at the same time, to visit the host country.
I lyset af de fremragende resultater, man har opnået, har andre lande såsom Det Forenede Kongerige, Canada, Australien og New Zealand vedtaget tilsvarende programmer.
The programme's excellent results have led to other countries such as the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand adopting their own version of ‘Work and Travel’.
Man taler mere og mere om at vedtage en europæisk strategi for erhvervsmæssig mobilitet, og indførelsen af et program af denne art på EU-­plan ville udgøre et væsentligt fremskridt på området.
At a time when much is being said about a European strategy for labour mobility, I believe that to create, at European level, a programme of this kind for young people from the Member States would mark a major step forward.
Der er i øvrigt ingen tvivl om, at en større mobilitet for arbejdskraften vil være til gavn for den europæiske økonomi.
In addition, the European economy would only gain from a more mobile workforce.
Ud fra et institutionelt synspunkt kan dette program gennemføres ved at vedtage et pilotprojekt.
From the institutional viewpoint, the adoption of a pilot EU project in this field would be a means of putting such a programme into practice.
Talrige initiativer sigter allerede mod at fremme den erhvervsmæssige mobilitet i EU, f.eks. EURES-nettet, der sikrer offentliggørelse af ledige stillinger i medlemsstaterne.
At EU level thee already exist numerous initiatives for a mobile workforce, such as the EURES network which publicises job vacancies in the Member States.
Endvidere deltager nogle medlemsstater som f.eks. Det Forenede Kongerige og Frankrig i programmer af typen »Work and Travel«.
Some Member States, such as the UK and France, also participate in programmes along the lines of ‘Work and Travel’.
Disse programmer bør suppleres ved at give unge europæere hjælp til alle de skridt, der er forbundet med at søge sæsonbeskæftigelse i medlemsstaterne.
The proposed project would complement those programmes by offering assistance to young Europeans at all stages in their attempts to find seasonal work in the Member States.
Dette program gør det endvidere muligt at koordinere og lette de unges mobilitet på EU's område.
In addition, a European programme along the lines of ‘Work and Travel’ would provide coordination and would facilitate young people's mobility in the Union.
Endelig er det ligeledes vigtigt at understrege, at EU for 90 % af de unge europæere udgør en mulighed for at studere, arbejde og bo i hele Europa, hvilket fremgår af en opinionsundersøgelse udført af Eurobarometer.
Last but not least, the EU's Eurobarometer has revealed that more than 90 % of young people in Europe identify the EU with the freedom to study, work and live anywhere in Europe.
Det er sandsynligt, at vedtagelsen af et program med de samme mål vil styrke følelsen af tilhørsforhold og de unges aktive deltagelse i skabelsen af et forenet Europa.
A programme responding to that perception would provide us with an opportunity to reinforce young people's sense of being part of the construction of a united Europe as active participants.

WRITTEN QUESTION E-0313/08
Om: Klassificering af turistindkvarteringssteder ved tildeling af såkaldte stjerner
Subject: Classification of tourist accommodation by awarding stars
Klassificering af et turistindkvarteringssted ved hjælp af »stjernerne«, som er udbredt i hotel- og restaurationsbranchen, skal sikre forbrugerne et overblik over typen af indkvarteringssted og rækkevidden af de ydelser, der er forbundet med indkvarteringen, allerede ved planlægningen af en rejse eller et ophold i et andet land end hjemlandet.
The standard system of stars used in the tourist industry for classifying accommodation providers is intended to give consumers planning a journey or a stay in a foreign country an idea of the kind of establishment and range of accommodation services offered.
Formålet med denne typeinddeling er således at tilvejebringe hurtigere og mere omfattende information til forbrugeren om indkvarteringsstedets kvalitet og service.
The aim of this classification is, then, to provide quick, comprehensive information on the quality and service of the type of accommodation in question.
I en sammenligning på europæisk plan bliver det imidlertid tydeligt, at der til dels er store forskelle mellem indkvarteringssteder i forskellige lande, selv om de har den samme typeinddeling (antal stjerner).
However, it is clear that, Europe-wide, there are sometimes considerable differences between accommodation providers in different countries, even though they have the same classification (number of stars).
Faren for, at der opstår en fejl, eller at der er tale om vildledning, er dermed større og går imod den tilstræbte forbrugerbeskyttelse i EU.
There is therefore a greater risk of their falling victim to error or even deception, which runs counter to the consumer protection which the European Union aspires to.
Parlamentet fastslog i sin betænkning om »en ny turismepolitik i EU: mod et stærkere partnerskab inden for europæisk turisme« (A6-­0399/­2007), at den europæiske hotel- og restaurationsbranche skal lette forståelsen af »stjernernes« betydning i medlemsstaterne, og at der i forbrugernes interesse skal udarbejdes et fælles katalog over kriterier i EU som grundlag for den fremtidige typeinddeling af turistindkvarteringssteder.
In its report on a renewed EU Tourism Policy: Towards a stronger partnership for European Tourism ( A6-0399/2007 ), the European Parliament found that the European tourist industry needs to make the meaning of the stars clearer in the Member States and that, for the benefit of the consumer, a Europe-wide list of criteria is required which will form the basis for the future classification of accommodation providers.
Mener Kommissionen, at der er behov for handling på baggrund af denne problemstilling i forbindelse med typeinddelingen af indkvarteringssteder, og hvis ja, hvilke tiltag er der planlagt?
Does the Commission consider that, given the problems described above, there is a need for action to be taken in the classification of accommodation providers, and if so, what action is planned?

Is the Commission aware that the travel lifts at the hardstand facility in Marsaxlokk, Malta, which were partly financed by EU funds, do not have the capacity to service all the registered fishing vessels below 500 tonnes?
Er Kommissionen klar over, at anlæggets kapacitet er 250 t, så det rent faktisk ikke er i stand til at betjene et fartøj i kategorien under 500 t, selv om man under besøg forud for ibrugtagningen forsikrede om, at alle fartøjer ville kunne blive betjent?
Is the Commission aware that the maximum capacity of this facility is 250 tonnes, thus effectively it cannot service one registered vessel in the below-500-tonnes category even though pre-commissioning visits ensured that all vessels would be able to be serviced?
Er Kommissionen klar over, at denne omstændighed ikke fremmer indførelsen af ens spilleregler for fartøjer inden for den samme kategori?

Om: Dødsfald på arbejdspladsen i Marghera
Subject: Workplace deaths in Marghera
Natten mellem den 17. og den 18. januar blev Paolo Ferrara, 47 år, en specialarbejder ansat ved havnearbejdernes selskab, og Denis Zanon, 39 år, en midlertidigt ansat tilknyttet en virksomhed, der opererer i havnen, dræbt af gasser i lastrummet på skibet World Trader, der transporterer sojamel, i handelshavnen i Marghera.
On the night of 17 to 18 January, at the commercial port of Marghera, Paolo Ferrara, 47, a specialist worker employed by the Port Workers' Company, and Denis Zanon, 39, a temporary worker attached to a company operating in the port, were killed by gas fumes in the hold of the ship, World Trader, which transports soyabean meal.
En tredje mand, et medlem af skibets besætning, blev også overmandet af dampene, da han forsøgte at redde de andre.
A third man, a member of the ship's crew, was also overcome by the fumes while attempting to rescue the others.
Der var helt klart tale om et brud på de grundlæggende sikkerhedsprocedurer, der kræver, at lastrum udluftes, før losning påbegyndes, nødprocedurerne fungerede ikke ordentligt, og det gjorde havnemyndighedens inspektions- og tilsynstjenester heller ikke.
There was clearly a breach of the elementary safety procedures requiring holds to be ventilated before unloading operations commence, while emergency procedures failed to function properly, as did the Port Authority's inspection and supervisory services.
Sundhedsmyndighedernes undersøgelser og de retlige undersøgelser vil uden tvivl klarlægge de tekniske aspekter og afgøre, hvem der var ansvarlig for disse alvorlige mangler.
The investigation by the health authorities and judiciary will undoubtedly clarify the technical aspects and determine who was responsible for these serious failings.
Lovgiver bør dog ikke overse de mere grundlæggende strukturelle årsager til denne og andre ulykker på arbejdspladsen, der bliver stadig hyppigere i italienske havne, og som efter spørgerens mening skyldes en gradvis deregulering, fragmentering og privatisering af arbejdet, der har til formål at fremme konkurrencen mellem en lang række indskudte selskaber, øge udnyttelsen af arbejdskraften og holde udgifterne til arbejdskraft nede.
However, the legislator should not overlook the deeper structural reasons at the origin of this and other workplace accidents, which are increasingly frequent in Italian ports and which, in the author's view, are caused by the progressive deregulation, fragmentation and privatisation of work activities, intended to promote competition between a variety of intermediary companies, increase exploitation of workers and keep labour costs down.
Finder Kommissionen det i lyset af ovenstående nødvendigt at fastslå, om den liberalisering, der blev indført med Italiens lov nr. 84 af 28. januar 1994 om reform af lovgivningen om italienske havne, er forenelig med behovet for en mere generel overholdelse af sundheds- og sikkerhedsstandarder, et spørgsmål rejst i Europa-Parlamentets beslutning af 15. januar 2008 (betænkning af Willmott)?
In the light of the above, does the Commission think it necessary to ascertain whether the liberalisation introduced by Italy's Law No 84 of 28 January 1994 on reform of Italian port legislation is compatible with the need for more general compliance with health and safety standards, a matter raised in the European Parliament's resolution of 15 January 2008 (Willmott report)?
Vil Kommissionen i lyset heraf overveje at medtage bindende sikkerhedsbestemmelser i alle nye lovgivningsforslag om havnetjenester?
Bearing this in mind, will the Commission move towards including binding safety provisions in any new legislative proposals on port services?
