Hans dagsorden omfattede møder med forskellige ministre og højtstående repræsentanter for regeringen og erhvervslivet og ikke ét eneste møde med civilsamfundet og ofre for krænkelser af menneskerettighederne, ikke engang repræsentanten for kontoret for FN's højtstående repræsentant for menneskerettigheder, et kontor, der er samfinansieret af EU.
His agenda included meetings with various ministers and senior representatives of the government and the business community, and not one single meeting with civil society and the victims of human rights violations, not even the representative of the Office of the UN High Representative for Human Rights, an office which is co-funded by the EU.
Hovedparten af det europæiske samarbejde er med civilsamfundet og menneskerettighedsprogrammer.
The bulk of European cooperation is with civil society and human rights programmes.

Hvorfor blev civilsamfundet og spørgsmålene om menneskerettigheder overset under Javier Solanas besøg til fordel for den europæisk-colombianske erhvervssektor, som kommissær Peter Mandelson havde møder med så sent som i december sidste år?
Why, during Mr Solana’s visit, were civil society and the issue of human rights passed over in favour of the Euro-Colombian business sector, with whom Commissioner Peter Mandelson had already held meetings in December last year?
Den 15. maj 2008 aflagde generalsekretæren/den højtstående repræsentant Javier Solana officielt besøg i Colombia på vej til femte topmøde mellem stats- og regeringschefer fra EU og Latinamerika og Caribien i Lima (den 16.-17. maj).
On 15 May 2008, the Secretary General/High Representative, Mr Solana, paid an official visit to Colombia on his way to the Vth EU‑LAC Summit of Heads of State and Government in Lima (May 16 and 17).
Under det korte ophold - under 24 timer - stod bl.a. følgende på hans omfattende dagsorden: en forelæsning på Externado-universitet, der har et Jean Monnet-professorat, et møde og en arbejdsfrokost med Colombias præsident Alvaro Uribe og relevante medlemmer af regeringen, udnævnelse til æresdoktor ved Rosario-universitet, et møde med en repræsentation fra erhvervslivet og en række interview og møder med massemedierne (tv, radiostationer, aviser og magasiner).
During his short stay — lasting less than 24 hours — his busy agenda included inter alia the following: a lecture at the Externado University, which holds the Jean Monnet Chair; a meeting and working lunch with the President of Colombia, Alvaro Uribe, and relevant members of his government; the award of a doctorate ‘honoris causa’ by the Rosario University; a meeting with a representation of the business sector and several interviews and meetings with mass media (TV, radio stations, newspapers and magazines).
Generalsekretæren/den højtstående repræsentant havde derudover to vigtige møder med repræsentanter for Colombias civilsamfund: først på Externado universitetet, hvor han gav en åben forelæsning og havde mulighed for at tale og udveksle synspunkter med de 800 tilhørere om en bred vifte af nationale, regionale og internationale spørgsmål, herunder menneskerettigheder.
In addition, the SG/HR had two key encounters with representatives of Colombian civil society: firstly at the Externado University, where he gave an open lecture and had the chance to talk and exchange views with a 800‑strong audience on a wide range of national, regional and international issues, including human rights.
Hans andet møde var på Rosario-universitet, hvor han blev udnævnt til æresdoktor i internationale forbindelser og havde lejlighed til at komme ind på bilaterale forbindelser mellem Colombia og EU, herunder menneskerettigheder, med repræsentanter fra den akademiske, videnskabelige, kulturelle og sociale sektor.
His second encounter was at the Rosario University, where the SG/HR was presented with a doctorate ‘honoris causa’ in international relations and had the opportunity to tackle bilateral relations between Colombia and the EU, including human rights, with representatives of the academic, scientific, cultural and social sectors.
Endelig gentog generalsekretæren/den højtstående repræsentant EU's standpunkt med hensyn til respekt for og fremme af menneskerettigheder på en række møder med Colombias massemedier.
Finally, during a succession of meetings with the Colombian mass media, the SG/HR reiterated the EU's stance on respect and promotion of human rights.

(20. juni 2008)
(20 June 2008)
Om: Konkurrence inden for grænseoverskridende ikkepatientrettede medicinske tjenesteydelser (som f.eks. laboratoriediagnostiske, laboratorietekniske og medicintekniske tjenesteydelser)
Subject: Competition in the provision of cross-border health-support services (such as diagnostic, laboratory and technical services)
Som skinbegrundelse for nationale regler, som lægger hindringer i vejen for den frie konkurrence, nævnes det særlige forhold mellem tjenesteyder (mediciner) og modtager (patient –»physician-to-patient direct contact services«).
The special relationship between the providers (physicians) and recipients (patients) of services — summed up in the phrase ‘physician-to-patient direct contact services’ — is put forward as the (supposed) justification for restrictive national rules.
Dette argument har bl.a. ført til, at sundhedsmæssige og farmaceutiske tjenesteydelser, som ydes over for patienter af erhvervsudøvere i sundhedsvæsenet, er blevet udtaget af tjenesteydelsesdirektivet af 15. november 2006 (se betragtning 23 og artikel 2, stk. 2, litra f).
As a result of this argument, for example, health and pharmaceutical services provided to patients by healthcare professionals were excluded from the scope of the services directive of 12 December 2006 OJ L 376, 27.12.2006, p.
Hertil hører de talrige tekniske og standardiserede medicinske følgeydelser, som ydes af erhvervsdrivende, rekvireret af læger, tandlæger eller andet medicinsk personale til disse ordregivere , altså ikke til patienter, som f.eks. laboratoriediagnostik, tjenesteydelser fra tandlaboratorier, proteser, transport af medicinske varer osv. Her mangler en tjenesteydelse over for patienter.
These include the many mechanised and standardised support services, such as diagnostic services, dental laboratory services, prostheses, shipments of items of medical equipment, etc., provided by firms or self-employed persons to doctors, dentists or other medical professionals, i.e. not to patients.
Alligevel påberåber udøvere af disse erhverv inden for medicinske tjenesteydelser sig en fravigelse af tjenesteydelsesdirektivet og lukker deres nationale markeder af for konkurrence.
Nevertheless, members of these professions providing health-support services invoke the non-applicability of the services directive and close off their national markets to competition.
Dette betyder, at forbrugere ingen godtgørelse får fra sygeforsikringerne, eller at sundhedssystemerne belastes med uacceptable kartel- og monolpriser, hvis sygeforsikringerne vælter omkostningerne over på personer med relevant sygeforsikring.
The result is that consumers either receive no reimbursement from sickness insurance funds or under sickness insurance policies or that, if sickness funds or insurance companies pass on the costs to insured persons, health systems are burdened with cartel- and monopoly-related charges.
Hvad påtænker Kommissionen at foretage sig mod de eksisterende hindringer på det indre marked ved udbud, efterspørgsel og mulighed for anvendelse af grænseoverskridende ikkepatientrettede medicinske følgeydelser (health support services), f.eks. laboratorietjenester rekvireret af læger og sygehuse?
What action does the Commission plan to take to remove the existing internal market obstacles to the provision and availability of cross-border health-support services, e.g. laboratory services requested by doctors and hospitals?
Hvad taler imod at træffe en bestemmelse gennem et direktiv, som kunne formuleres på engelsk som følgende: »A Member State where a patient is an insured person (Member State of insurance) shall ensure that the insured person travelling in another Member State or otherwise seeking the assistance of a provider of health support services from another Member State, will not be prevented from receiving such services provided in another Member State.
What objections are there to the adoption of a directive containing a provision which might be worded as follows in English: ‘A Member State where a patient is an insured person (Member State of insurance) shall ensure that the insured person travelling in another Member State or otherwise seeking the assistance of a provider of health support services from another Member State, will not be prevented from receiving such services provided in another Member State.
The Member State of insurance shall provide for the reimbursement of the costs to the insured person, which would have been paid for by its statutory healthcare security system, public or private, if the same or similar healthcare support services had been provided in its own territory.«
The Member State of insurance shall provide for the reimbursement of the costs to the insured person, which would have been paid for by its statutory healthcare security system, public or private, if the same or similar healthcare support services had been provided in its own territory’.

Om: Anerkendelse af miljøplaketter i hele EU
Subject: EU-wide recognition of low-emission discs
På grundlag af EU-forordningen om mærkning af motorkøretøjer efter forureningsstofgruppe har byer i en række EU-lande indført miljøzoner, hvor kun køretøjer med en passende ny plakette må køre.
On the basis of the EU regulation on the registration of motor vehicles according to pollutant emission levels towns and cities in several EU countries have introduced low-emission zones which may be used only by vehicles with the corresponding new discs.
Også køretøjer, som er indregistreret i udlandet, skal være udstyret med denne plakette.
Vehicles registered abroad also require such a disc.
Spørgsmålet er på denne baggrund, hvordan mærkningspligten på EU-plan i den grænseoverskridende trafik skal reguleres med henblik på at undgå unødvendigt bureaukratisk besvær for borgere og virksomheder.
This raises the question of how the registration requirement applicable on a cross-border basis at EU level can be organised in such a way that members of the public and firms are not forced to complete unnecessary bureaucratic formalities.
Hvorfor er der hidtil ikke blevet indført nogen ensartet mærkning af køretøjer i alle EU-landene?
Why have uniform rules on the registration of vehicles in all EU countries not yet been introduced?
Planlægger Kommissionen en ensartet plakette i fremtiden?
Is the Commission planning to introduce a uniform disc in the future?
Hvordan bedømmer Kommissionen det besvær og de omkostninger, som opstår for privatpersoner og erhvervsvirksomheder, når de skal ansøge om forskellige miljøplaketter i flere EU-lande?
What view does the Commission take of the time and money which private individuals and firms will have to expend if they are required to apply for low-emission discs in several EU countries?
Overvejer Kommissionen at anerkende de respektive nationale plaketter i hele EU?
Does the Commission see any scope for imposing EU-wide recognition of national discs?
Hvis ja, hvad er proceduren?
If so, what form would the procedure take?

Om: Cubansk politisk fange i livsfare
Subject: Cuba: Political prisoner's life in danger
José Daniel Ferrer García, cubansk politisk fange og medlem af den kristne befrielsesbevægelse, har sultestrejket i en uge under frygtelige forhold i sin celle i »El Tipico«-fængslet i provinsen Las Tunas.
José Daniel Ferrer García, Cuban political prisoner and member of the Christian Liberation Movement, has been on hunger strike for a week in the infernal conditions of his cell in the ‘El Típico’ prison of Las Tunas province.
For otte dage siden blev han overflyttet fra Guantánamofængslet, hvor han havde protesteret mod vagternes overgreb og de umenneskelige forhold i fængslet.
It has been eight days since he was transferred from the prison of Guantánamo, where he had protested against abuse from guards and the subhuman conditions in which he was kept.
Det rapporteres, at han forinden blev holdt fængslet i Pinar del Rio i en isolationscelle på ca. 3 gange 1 meter, i fuldstændigt mørke og uden vandforsyning.
Previously, reports mentioned he was being held in solitary confinement at a prison in Pinar del Rio, in a cell reported to be approximately nine by three feet, completely dark and without water supply.
Ved ankomsten til »El Típico«-fængslet underrettede vagtpersonalet ham om, at han skulle dele celle med meget farlige indsatte, som ville forulempe og mishandle ham.
On his arrival at the ‘El Típico’ prison, guards informed him that he would be jailed in a room with very dangerous inmates so he would be harassed and badly treated.
Herefter indledte han sin sultestrejke og blev sendt til en celle, hvor han er i livsfare.
At that point, he began his hunger strike and was sent to a cell where his life is in danger.
José Daniel Ferrer García, en journalist, som var lokal koordinator af Varelaprojektet, er blevet idømt en fængselsstraf på 25 år.
José Daniel Ferrer García, a journalist who was local coordinator of the Varela Project, was sentenced to 25 years in prison.

Om: Produktion af biobrændstoffer
Subject: Biofuel production
Prisen på ris er nu mindsket kraftigt efter den seneste dramatiske stigning.
The price of rice is now drastically reduced following the recent dramatic increase.
Det lader til, at frygten for truende alvorlig fødevaremangel på grund af brug af landbrugsjorden til andre formål var ubegrundet.
It appears that fears of impending severe shortages due to other use of cultivation land were unfounded.
Er Kommissionen enig med mig i, at der kan være blevet manipuleret en vis grad i denne sag, måske hovedsageligt fra olieproducerende interesserede parters side, da de er bekymrede over tabet af indtægter på grund af anvendelsen af biobrændstoffer og derfor ønsker at overdrive udsigten til at bruge landbrugsjord til biobrændstoffer frem for fødevareproduktion?
Does the Commission agree with me that a certain degree of manipulation may have been involved in this matter, mainly perhaps by oil-producing interested parties who are concerned about loss of revenue as a result of the use of biofuels and want to exaggerate the prospect of use of farm land for biofuel rather than food plant production?
Har Kommissionen i denne henseende konkrete videnskabelige og uafhængige beviser på, at anvendelsen af jord til produktion af biobrændstoffer vil forårsage en drastisk reduktion i tilgængeligheden af fødevarer?
In this respect, does the Commission have concrete, scientific, independent evidence that use of land for biofuel production will cause drastic reduction in food availability?

Om: Revisionsretten og EU's budgetkontrol
Subject: Court of Auditors and EU budgetary control
Det rapporteres ofte i forsvar for Kommissionens Finanskontrol, at det største problem med EU's budgetkontrol er, at 80 % af fællesskabsudgifterne bruges i medlemsstaterne, hvor der kun er utilstrækkelige sikkerhedsforanstaltninger, eller hvor der er manglende respons omkring udbetalingen af midler, hvilket gør godkendelsen af EU-budgettet juridisk umulig for Revisionsretten.
It is often reported in defence of Commission financial controls that the main problem with EU budgetary control is that 80 % of Community expenditure takes place at member state level where insufficient safeguards are in place or where there is a lack of feedback on the disbursement of funds making the signing off of the EU budget by the Court of auditors legally impossible.
Ikke desto mindre skal denne påstand forsones med Revisionsrettens pressemeddelelse af 13. november 2007 omkring EU's regnskab for 2006 (ECA/07/28), der fastslog, at »... der stadig er fejl med hensyn til lovlighed og formel rigtighed i størsteparten af EU's udgifter på grund af svagheder i de interne kontrolsystemer i såvel Kommissionen som i medlemsstaterne.«
Nevertheless this assertion needs to be reconciled with the Court of Auditors press release of 13 November 2007 concerning the EU's 2006 accounts (ECA/07/28) which stated that: ‘… errors of legality and regularity still persist in the majority of EU expenditure due to weaknesses in internal control systems both at the Commission and in Member States’.
Vil Kommissionen angive, hvilke foranstaltninger der træffes for at håndtere Revisionsrettens påstande mod Kommissionens Finanskontrol omkring budgettet for 2006, og vil Kommissionen ligeledes bekræfte, at nogle eller alle Marta Andreasens klager over Kommissionens regnskabsmetode behandles?
Can the Commission state what measures are being taken to address the serious allegations by the Court of Auditors against the Commission financial controls concerning the 2006 budget and also can the Commission confirm that some or all of the complaints made by Mrs Marta Andreasen about the accounting methodology operated by the Commission are being addressed?
