Om: Støtte til contrainertransport
Subject: Subsidies for container transport
De belgiske myndigheder tog i 2004 initiativ til at støtte containertransport ad jernbane.
The Belgian Government launched an initiative in 2004 to subsidise the transport of containers by rail.
Målsætningen er at holde godstransporten borte fra vejene.
The aim is to try to keep freight transport off the roads.
Da afstandene mellem de forskellige terminaler er relativt lille i Belgien, er det nødvendigt at gøre noget for jernbanerne.
As the distances between the various terminals in Belgium are very small, it is necessary to grant railway companies subsidies.
I andre europæiske lande gives der også støtte.
In other European countries subsidies are also granted.
Hvert år tildeles det belgiske jernbaneselskab, NMBS/SNCB, et eksklusivt beløb på 30 mio. EUR som kompensation for de tabsgivende aktiviteter på det nationale net.
Every year EUR 30 million is exclusively granted to the NMBS in order to offset loss-making domestic transport activities.
Andre jernbaneselskaber indleder nu aktiviteter på det belgiske marked.
Other railway companies are now making their entry onto the Belgian market.
Er de også berettigede til sådan støtte?
Are they also eligible for such subsidies?
Kan de belgiske myndigheder vælge udelukkende at støtte NMBS/SNCB?
Can the Belgian Government solely and exclusively grant subsidies to the NMBS?
Vil dette medføre konkurrenceforvridning?
Does this create distortion of competition?
På den anden side udgør denne støtte konkurrence med andre transportformer, som f.eks. transport ad indre vandveje.
At the same time, this means that the railways are being subsidised in competition with other modes of transport, such as transport by waterway.
Indlandsskibsfarten — som ligeledes er en miljøvenlig transportform — vil kunne hævde, at der er tale om konkurrenceforvridning.
Internal waterway transport — likewise an environment‑friendly way of transporting — could claim distortion of competition.
Skal denne støtte ikke være neutral i forhold til de forskellige transportformer?
Should subsidies not be neutral in terms of modes of transport?
Hvad er Kommissionens holdning?
What is the Commission's position?
Ønsker den ikke at støtte alle miljøvenlige transportformer?
Does it not wish to support all environment‑friendly forms of transport?
Gør de belgiske myndigheder sig eventuelt skyldige i konkurrenceforvridning mellem de forskellige transportformer og de forskellige transportselskaber?
Is the Belgian Government possibly guilty of causing distortion of competition between the various modes of transport and the various operators?

Forespørgeren har fået oplyst, at satellitoperatøren SES Astra har en licens, som kræver, at virksomheden transmitterer sine udsendelser i hele Europa.
I am informed that SES Astra, the satellite operator, has a licence which requires it to transmit on a pan-European basis.
Imidlertid ser det ud til, at denne betingelse ikke bliver opfyldt.
However, it appears that this condition is not being fulfilled.
Følgelig kan mange EU-borgere, som i øjeblikket bor i et andet EU-land end deres eget, ikke modtage ukodede satellittransmissioner fra deres nye EU-bopælsland.
As a result, many EU citizens currently living in EU countries other than their own are not able to receive free-to-air satellite transmissions from their new EU country of residence.
Endvidere betyder manglen på satellitdækning, at EU-borgere fra ét EU-land ikke kan modtage og se ukodede programmer transmitteret af et andet EU-land.
Moreover, the lack of satellite coverage means that EU citizens from one EU country are not able to receive and view free-to-air programming transmitted from another.
I andre tilfælde er det, selv om der er satellitdækning, ikke tilladt for EU-borgere, der bor lige på den anden side af grænsen til deres eget land, at abonnere på satellit-tv-kanaler, eftersom denne service ikke tilbydes i andre lande.
In other cases, although coverage is available, EU citizens living just across the border from their own country are not allowed to subscribe to satellite television programming because the service is not offered in other countries.
Hvad er Kommissionens holdning til dette spørgsmål?
What is the Commission's position on this matter?

Om: Ophævelse af sygesikringsordning
Subject: Withdrawal of medical insurance cover
Et britisk selskab, Great Universal Stores PLC, har for nylig skriftligt meddelt sine pensionister, at selskabet ikke længere vil stille gratis sygesikring til rådighed for dem.
A UK company, Great Universal Stores PLC, recently wrote to its pensioners that the company was withdrawing the free medical insurance cover that it provided for them.
En række af de berørte pensionister er af den opfattelse, at denne afgørelse strider mod EU's antidiskriminationsbestemmelser, eftersom den fortrinsvis rammer personer, som er over pensionsalderen.
Some of these pensioners believe that this decision breaches EU anti-discrimination law because it is primarily aimed at people over pensionable age.
Kan Kommissionen oplyse, om der findes nogen EU-lovgivning, som forbyder den arbitrære ophævelse af en sådan sygesikringsordning for et selskabs pensionister, eller om der er udsigt til vedtagelse af en sådan lovgivning?
Can the Commission state whether there is any EU legislation in force or in prospect which would prohibit the arbitrary withdrawal of such medical insurance cover from a company's pensioners?

Om: Suspension af Tyrkiets deltagelse i det europæiske luftfartssamarbejde
Subject: Suspending Turkey's membership of the European Joint Aviation Authorities
Siden 2001har Tyrkiet været fuldgyldigt medlem af det europæiske luftfartssamarbejde, der omfatter 39 lande samlet i De Fælles Luftfartsmyndigheder (JAA).
Since 2001 Turkey has been a full member of the European aviation association, the European Joint Aviation Authorities, to which a total of 39 countries belong.
Mener Kommissionen ikke, at de seneste eksempler på utilstrækkelig sikkerhed hos de tyrkiske luftfartsselskaber Fly Air og Onur Air, som flere europæiske lande i øvrigt siden maj har indført forbud imod, viser, at den tyrkiske civile luftfartsmyndighed Sivil Havacylyk Genel Mudurlugu (SHGM) ikke fører tilstrækkeligt tilsyn med de tyrkiske luftfartsselskaber, og at Tyrkiets deltagelse i JAA derfor bør suspenderes i det mindste midlertidigt?
Does the Commission not take the view that the recent cases of repeated failure to comply with aviation safety standards by the Turkish airlines Fly Air and Onur Air, which have, furthermore, been banned since May in a number of European countries, show that the Turkish civil aviation authority, Sivil Havacylyk Genel Mudurlugu (SHGM), is not fulfilling adequately its duty to supervise the Turkish airlines, and that Turkey’s membership of the JAA should be suspended, at least temporarily?

Om: Levevilkår for fanger i Tyrkiet
Subject: Living conditions of prisoners in Turkey
Den 3. august blev den belgiske statsborger Danny Van Aeken fængslet i Tyrkiet efter at have skadet en russisk surfer i en ulykke, der involverede en lejet jetski.
On 3 August, Danny Van Aeken, a Belgian national, was imprisoned in Turkey after having injured a Russian surfer in an accident involving a hired jet-ski.
Han blev tilbageholdt i 16 dage under frygtelige forhold.
He was held for 16 days in appalling conditions.
Først blev han anbragt i en celle, der målte 5 gange 5 meter, sammen med 13 forbrydere.
Initially, he was placed in a cell measuring 5 x 5 metres, together with 13 criminals.
Den dårlige hygiejne var rystende.
The lack of hygiene was awful.
Det vand, der kom ud af hanen, var snavset og udrikkeligt.
The water which came out of the tap was dirty and undrinkable.
En morgen fik den pågældende nyreproblemer, men han måtte vente til om aftenen, før han fik et smertestillende middel og den nødvendige medicin (og først efter at det belgiske konsulat var gået ind i sagen).
Moreover, one morning the man suffered a renal crisis and had to wait until the evening before he received a pain-killer and the necessary medicines (even then, this was only after the Belgian consulate had intervened).
Der skete også det meget mærkelige, at Van Aeken i cellen blev kontaktet af modpartens advokat, som foreslog ham at betale en sum på 52000 USD.
Another very curious incident was that while Van Aeken was in the cell he was approached by the opposing party's lawyer, who suggested that he should pay the sum of EUR 52000 .
Åbenbart anbringes fængslede turister fra Vesten generelt i de »bedre« fængsler i Tyrkiet, og det skulle angiveligt også være sket i dette tilfælde.
Apparently, imprisoned Western tourists are generally assigned to Turkey's ‘better’ prisons, and this is indeed said to have been the case for the above person.
Det er derfor indlysende, at der er store problemer med levevilkårene for fanger i Tyrkiet: overbelægning, dårlig hygiejne, utilstrækkelig og/eller sen udlevering af medicin osv.
Evidently therefore there is a considerable problem in Turkey as regards the living conditions of prisoners: overcrowding, lack of hygiene, inadequate and/or late provision of medicines, etc.
Er Kommissionen opmærksom på problemet?

Har den drøftet emnet med den tyrkiske regering?

Om: Initiativer til fremme af søfartserhvervet
Subject: Initiatives to promote the seafaring profession
Det britiske formandskab har som en af de vigtigste prioriteter for transportpolitikken fastsat fremme af søfartserhvervet og sikring af dets fremtid samt nødvendigheden af at træffe omgående foranstaltninger.
One of the UK Presidency's basic transport policy priorities is to promote and secure the future of the seafaring profession, recognising the need to take measures immediately.
På baggrund af denne politiske vilje og den kendsgerning, at søfartserhvervet i dag er i tilbagegang i EU, idet der i de senere år har kunnet noteres et underskud (30 %) på marineofficerer og personale i de europæiske flåder, bedes Rådet besvare følgende: Hvilke foranstaltninger agter Rådet at træffe til imødegåelse af dette fænomen?
Given this political will and the fact that the seafaring profession is currently in recession in the EU — recent years have been marked by a significant shortage (30 %) of officers and seamen in European fleets — what practical measures will the Council take to tackle this situation?
Ligger Rådet inde med statistiske data og sammenlignende studier for de enkelte medlemsstater (især efter udvidelsen) om beskæftigelsen inden for søfarten, udviklingen og mulighederne for søfartserhvervet samt hvad angår beskæftigelsen af søfolk fra tredjelande i de europæiske flåder?
Does the Council have statistical data and comparative studies for each Member State (particularly following enlargement) concerning marine employment, and the development and possibilities of the seafaring profession, and the employment of third-country seafarers in European fleets?
Agter Rådet at kræve, at Kommissionen tager konkrete lovgivningsinitiativer til fremme af søfartserhvervet og beskæftigelsen inden for søfart?
Will it ask the Commission to take specific legislative initiatives to promote the seafaring profession and marine employment?
Som det ærede medlem ganske rigtigt bemærker, er beskæftigelsen inden for søfarten en af det britiske formandskabs prioriteter.
As the Honourable Member rightly points out, maritime employment is indeed a priority of the UK Presidency.
Denne prioritet er udtryk for det tilsagn, Rådet gav i sine konklusioner fra juni 2003 vedrørende forbedring af EF-­søtransportens image og om tiltrækning af unge til søfartserhvervet.
This priority is the expression of the Council's commitment entered into in the Council's conclusions of June 2003 as regards ‘improving the image of Community shipping and attracting young people to the seafaring profession’.
Det fremgår helt klart af disse konklusioner, at Rådet er sig fuldt bevidst, at man hele tiden bør søge at skabe de rette vilkår for at sikre, at unge har adgang til søfartserhvervet.
It is manifest from these conclusions that the Council is fully aware of the ongoing challenge of creating the appropriate conditions for ensuring that young people have access to the seafaring profession.
Rådet vedtog på sin samling den 1.-­5. december 2005 nogle konklusioner med henblik på at fremme beskæftigelsesmulighederne i Fællesskabets søfartssektor og tiltrække unge til søfartserhvervet.
The Council of 1-5 December 2005 adopted conclusions with a view to ‘boosting employment prospects in the Community maritime sector and attracting young people to the seafaring profession’.
Disse konklusioner er blevet offentliggjort (jf. 14636/­1/­05 REV 1).
