Sprogkurser i kurdisk er lukket — kursusindehaverne hævder, at det skyldes begrænset efterspørgsel (idet deltagerne selv skal afholde de dermed forbundne udgifter) og faktorer såsom manglende økonomiske ressourcer og andre restriktioner, især vedrørende pensummet, ansættelsen af lærere, skemaet og deltagerne — og der afsiges fortsat domme for brug af det kurdiske sprog i visse sammenhænge
Kurdish language courses have closed down — the course owners claim through limited demand (as participants must bear the financial costs connected) and due to factors such as lack of financial resources and other restrictions, concerning in particular the curriculum, the appointment of teachers, the timetable and the attendees — and people continue to be convicted for using the Kurdish language in certain contexts.
Kommissionen konkluderer i sin situationsrapport fra 2005 om Tyrkiet, at domstolenes rolle i forbindelse med sikringen af retten til at bruge kurdisk er blandet, og at praksis varierer fra landsdel til landsdel.
The Commission, in its 2005 progress report on Turkey, concludes that the judiciary's role in guaranteeing the right to use Kurdish is mixed and practice varies throughout the country.
I den forbindelse er respekten for ytringsfriheden af afgørende betydning.
In this context, respect for the right to freedom of expression is of key importance.
Afgørelser om krænkelser af ytringsfriheden og tilladte undtagelser bør træffes i overensstemmelse med artikel 10 i den europæiske menneskerettighedskonvention og i overensstemmelse med Den Europæiske Menneskerettighedsdomstols domspraksis på området.
Decisions on violations of the right to freedom of expression and permissible exceptions should be made in line with Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights and in accordance with the relevant case‑law of the European Court of Human Rights.
Det er klart, at Tyrkiet fortsat skal udfolde store bestræbelser med hensyn til grundlæggende frihedsrettigheder og menneskerettigheder såsom ytringsfrihed på den ene side og mindretalsrettigheder, herunder kulturelle rettigheder, på den anden side.
It is clear that further significant efforts are required from Turkey as regards fundamental freedoms and human rights, such as freedom of expression, on the one hand, and minority rights, including cultural rights, on the other hand.
Rådet gentager, at EU lægger stor vægt på disse spørgsmål som led i den igangværende reformproces i Tyrkiet.
The Council would recall that the Union attaches great importance to these issues as part of the ongoing reform process in Turkey.
Rådet kan derfor forsikre det ærede parlamentsmedlem om, at disse spørgsmål vil blive fulgt nøje og fortsat blive rejst på alle niveauer, hvor det bliver aktuelt.
The Council can therefore assure the Honourable Member that these issues will be closely followed and continue to be raised at all levels as appropriate.

WRITTEN QUESTION E-4195/05
Om: Skrivelse fra den tyrkiske ambassadør om dansk pressefrihed
Subject: Letter from the Turkish Ambassador opposing freedom of the press in Denmark
Jyllandsposten har offentliggjort 12 tegninger af profeten Muhammed, til stor vrede for en række ekstremister, som har demonstreret mod dagbladet og endog truet med et bombeattentat.
The Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten has published 12 cartoons featuring the Prophet Mohammed, to the fury of a number of extremists, who have demonstrated against the newspaper and even threatened to carry out a bombing.
Offentliggørelsen førte til diplomatiske spændinger, efter at ambassadørerne fra elleve islamiske lande havde sendt en skrivelse til den danske statsminister, hvori de anmodede om indgriben over for dagbladet.
The publication even led to a diplomatic incident after 11 ambassadors from Islamic countries wrote a collective letter to Prime Minister Rasmussen of Denmark asking him to take action against the newspaper.
Statsministeren afviste at imødekomme ambassadørernes anmodning, da der i et demokratisk land som Danmark er pressefrihed, og da han, selv om han ville (hvilket ikke var tilfældet), ikke kunne gøre noget i en sådan sag.
The Prime Minister refused to do so, pointing out that freedom of the press existed in democratic countries like Denmark and that he had no power to act in such cases, even if he had wished to (which he did not).
Mærkværdigvis var en af underskriverne ambassadøren for Tyrkiet, der officielt er en sekulær stat.
Curiously, one of the signatories to the letter was the Ambassador of Turkey, officially a secular State.
Ifølge oplysninger i pressen var der ikke tale om et fejltrin fra den tyrkiske ambassadørs side, tværtimod stod den tyrkiske regering eksplicit bag medunderskrivelsen.
According to press reports, this was no maverick action by the Turkish Ambassador: the Turkish Government explicitly supported the signature of the letter.
Finder Rådet, at Tyrkiets indblanding i denne sag, der er rettet mod ytrings- og pressefriheden i en medlemsstat af Den Europæiske Union, er i overensstemmelse med bogstav og ånd i København-kriterierne?
Does this interference by Turkey, entailing opposition to freedom of expression and freedom of the press in an EU Member State, accord with the letter and the spirit of the Copenhagen criteria?
Vil Rådet rette henvendelse til den tyrkiske regering om denne sag?
Will the Council contact the Turkish Government about this?
(25. april 2006)
(25 April 2006)
Det spørgsmål, som det ærede medlem rejser, kan ses som et spørgsmål, der indgår i en bredere kontekst, der har med reaktionerne i den muslimske verden på de tegninger, der henvises til i forespørgslen, at gøre.
The issue raised by the Honourable Member could be regarded as part of the wider issue of the reactions in the Muslim world to the cartoons referred to in this question.
I den forbindelse skal Rådet henvise til sine konklusioner af 27. februar 2006 om dette spørgsmål.
In this context, the Council would refer to its recent conclusions of 27 February 2006 on that issue.

Subject: Statements by President Ahmadinejad of Iran
Europæiske regeringsledere har allerede erklæret, at sådanne udtalelser er uaccepteble.
European heads of government have already said that such statements are unacceptable.
Kan Rådet oplyse, med hvilke klare foranstaltninger det de kommende dage vil gøre det klart for Iran, at sådanne udtalelser er helt uacceptable, og at Europa som største »soft-power« ikke vil acceptere dem?
Can the Council indicate what specific measures it will adopt in the next few days to make it clear to Iran that such statements are disproportionate and that Europe — the most significant wielder of ‘soft power’ — will not accept them?
Hvilke (handels)politiske sanktioner vil Rådet foreslå FN's Sikkerhedsråd, som gør det klart, at »soft« er noget ganske andet end blot »at kigge på uden at handle«?
What political sanctions, for example in the field of trade policy, will the Council propose to the UN Security Council to make it clear that ‘soft power’ does not mean that those who deploy it will stand idly by and take no action?
Det Europæiske Råd har uforbeholdent fordømt præsiden Ahmadinejads udtalelser.
The European Council has unreservedly condemned the statements by President Ahmadinejad.
Dette budskab er også blevet meddelt de iranske myndigheder gennem direkte repræsentationer i Teheran og europæiske hovedstæder.
This message has also been delivered to the Iranian authorities through direct representations in Tehran and European capitals.
EU's forbindelser med Iran vil afhænge af de fremskridt, der gøres på alle problemområderne, herunder terrorisme, spredning af masseødelæggelsesvåben, Irans holdning til Mellemøsten, menneskerettigheder og grundlæggende frihedsrettigheder samt regionale spørgsmål.
The EU's relations with Iran will depend on progress on all issues of concern, including terrorism, the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, Iran’s approach to the Middle East, human rights and fundamental freedoms and regional issues.
EU's tilgang og diplomatiske muligheder vil blive fulgt nøje og til stadighed justeret i lyset af Irans udtalelser og handlinger.
The EU's approach and its diplomatic options will be kept under close review and continuously calibrated in the light of Iranian declarations and actions.
Rådet minder i den forbindelse om, at det har besluttet at arbejde for en inddragelse af FN's Sikkerhedsråd for at styrke Det Internationale Atomenergiagenturs myndighed med henblik på at finde en diplomatisk løsning på det iranske atomspørgsmål.
The Council recalls in this context that it has decided to work for the involvement of the UN Security Council to reinforce the authority of the International Atomic Energy Agency in order to find a diplomatic solution to the Iranian nuclear issue.

Om: Diskriminering af lastvognschauffører fra de nye EU-medlemsstater på grundlag af nationalitet samt dårlige arbejdsvilkår der fører til konkurrenceforvridning
Subject: Discrimination against truck drivers from new EU Member States on grounds of nationality, and poor working conditions leading to distortion of competition
Er Kommissionen bekendt med, at lastvognschauffører fra stater øst for det, der indtil 2004 var EU's ydre grænse, ikke modtager løn og diæter for den tid, de i de stater, hvor der er køreforbud i weekenden, ofte over en dag venter på parkeringspladser ved restauranter og benzinstationer langs vejen (hvor andre betragter deres ophold som et irritationsmoment), og heller ikke mens de venter på lastning og losning?
Is the Commission aware that truck drivers from the States to the east of what until 2004 was the external border of the EU‑15 do not receive any wages or expenses payments for the periods which they are compelled to spend waiting at roadside restaurants and petrol stations (where other people consider their presence, in unattractive conditions, to constitute a nuisance), sometimes for more than a day at a time, in EU Member States where it is not permitted to drive trucks at the weekend, or during times when they are compelled to wait during loading and unloading?
Er Kommissionen bekendt med, at chauffører fra Polen og andre nye medlemsstater i stigende omfang ansættes i virksomheder i de gamle medlemsstater, der nu ikke længere ansætter personer fra deres eget land, men at disse nyansatte ikke bliver behandlet i overensstemmelse med de kollektive overenskomster, der i de pågældende medlemsstater gælder for dette erhverv, således at de tjener mindre end kollegerne, der er statsborgere i de pågældende medlemsstater?
Is the Commission aware that drivers from Poland and other new Member States are increasingly being employed by businesses from the old Member States, who have ceased to recruit drivers from their own countries, but that these newcomers are not treated in accordance with the collective agreement on terms of employment which applies to the industry in the Member State concerned, so that they earn less than nationals of the Member State concerned for doing the same job?
Anser Kommissionen det for acceptabelt, at chaufførerne på grund af deres officielle adresse og udenlandske nationalitet i arbejdsgiverens land omfattes af en særlig overenskomst, der er baseret på det lavere lønniveau i deres hjemland?
Is it acceptable that truck drivers should be made subject to a separate, discriminatory collective agreement on terms of employment in their employer's country on the basis of their official home address and foreign nationality, the agreement in question being based on the lower wage levels which exist in their country of origin?
Anser Kommissionen disse metoder til at sænke omkostningerne til en del af arbejdstagerne på grund af disses nationalitet for illoyal konkurrence på EU-området, som er til skade for medlemsstater og virksomheder, der tager udgangspunkt i lige behandling, og for de arbejdstagere, der arbejder på normale arbejdsvilkår?
Does the Commission regard these methods of substantially reducing the costs of employing some workers on the basis of their nationality as unfair competition within the EU, which is contrary to the interests of Member States and businesses which adhere to a policy of equal treatment and contrary to the interests of employees employed on normal terms?
Er Kommissionen bekendt med de konklusioner, det nederlandske råd for arbejde og indkomst (RWI), fremlægger i rapporten »Poolshoogte nemen« (»status«)?
Is the Commission aware of the findings of the Council for Work and Income (RWI) in the Netherlands as stated in its report ‘Poolshoogte nemen’ (Poles Apart — Sizing up the Situation)?
Er Kommissionen bekendt med, at den nederlandske statssekretær for sociale anliggender, Van Hoof, i september på en forespørgsel svarede, at denne erhvervsgren vil være udkonkurreret i Nederlandene inden for ti år?
Is the Commission aware that, in September, the Netherlands State Secretary for Social Affairs, Van Hoof, replying to questions tabled in the Netherlands Parliament, said that within 10 years this industry would be destroyed in the Netherlands by competition from elsewhere?
Kan Kommissionen acceptere, at sådanne negative eksempler fører til et stadig voksende krav om lukning af grænserne for arbejdstagere med anden nationalitet, stop for nye medlemsstater og genindførelse af national protektionisme?
Is the Commission content to accept that, because of such deplorable practices, people are increasingly calling for the borders to be closed to workers of other nationalities, for new Member States to be kept out of the EU and for national protection to be restored?
Hvad vil Kommissionen i benægtende fald gøre for at løse disse problemer på kort sigt?
If not, what will the Commission do to tackle these problems without delay?

Om: Offentliggørelse af kommissærers besøg
Subject: Publicising travel by Commissioners
Ifølge gældende traktater skal Kommissionens medlemmer afholde sig fra enhver handling, som er uforenelig med deres hverv.
Pursuant to the existing Treaties, Commissioners are required to refrain from doing anything which conflicts with their duties.
Medlemsstaterne respekterer deres uafhængighed og forsøger ikke at påvirke dem under udførelsen af deres hverv.
Member States must respect their independence and must not try to influence Commissioners in the performance of their duties.
Kommissionens medlemmer må ikke, så længe deres tjeneste varer, udøve nogen anden — lønnet eller ulønnet — erhvervsmæssig virksomhed.
During their period in office, Commissioners are not permitted to carry out any other professional work, whether paid or unpaid.
Kommissionen har i sit arbejde navnlig fremhævet civilsamfundets betydning.
In its work, the Commission has particularly stressed the significance of civil society.
Kommissionen bør, inden den udarbejder nye lovinitiativer, have et særligt godt kendskab til EU-landenes aktuelle situation på det pågældende område.
Before the Commission proposes new legislation, it should be very well informed about the current national situations in the EU countries with regard to the matter concerned.
Dette forudsætter en dialog mellem alle parter samt åbenhed omkring, hvad Kommissionen foretager sig.
This requires dialogue among all parties and openness as to what the Commission is doing.
Kommissionens holdning er, at den ikke ønsker at begrænse de parter, som den er i kontakt med inden beslutningstagningen.
According to the Commission, it does not wish to limit the parties with which it has contact before taking its decisions.
For at Kommissionens arbejde er så åbent og tæt på civilsamfundet som muligt, er det hensigtsmæssigt at vide, hvilke lande kommissærerne besøger, og hvor tæt dialogen er med medlemslandene.
In order for the Commission's work to be as open as possible, and for civil society to be as fully involved as possible, it would therefore be useful to know which countries Commissioners visit and how intensive the dialogue with the Member States is.
På den måde vil det være lettere for Parlamentet at kontrollere Kommissionens arbejde.
Then Parliament could also scrutinise the Commission's work more easily.

De svenske konkurrencemyndigheder har oplyst, at de påtænker at anmelde Norrbottens Landsting og Boden Kommune til Kommissionen.
The Swedish competition commission has announced its intention of reporting Norrbotten County Council and the municipality of Boden to the Commission.
Baggrunden er, at ledelsen i Norrbottens Landsting har besluttet, at overdrage til en finsk virksomhed at sørge for Landstingets vask.
The background to this referral is a decision by the leadership of Norrbotten County Council to contract the services of a company in Finland to take care of the County Council's laundry.
Efter protester i Norrbotten ændrede ledelsen denne beslutning og overdrog i stedet opgaven til et lokalt kommunalt vaskeri.
Following protests in Norrbotten, the County Council's leadership reconsidered the decision and awarded the contract to a local laundry owned by the municipality.
Konkurrencemyndighederne finder, at der her er tale om ulovlig støtte, at proceduren har været ulovlig, og at der har været tale om konkurrenceforvridning.
The competition commission considers that such an act constitutes inadmissible aid, that the awarding of the contract was unlawful and that competition has been distorted.
