Om: Voldtægtsofre i Liberia
Subject: Victims of rape in Liberia
Har Kommissionen kendskab til de udbredte og systematiske voldtægter af kvinder og børn, som regeringssoldater har gjort sig skyldige i under borgerkrigen i Liberia?
Is the European Commission aware of the widespread systematic rape of women and children by government soldiers which took place during its civil war in Liberia?
Mener Kommissionen ikke, at der først kan opnås varig fred i Liberia, når de ansvarlige for forbrydelser i henhold til folkeretten er blevet stillet for en domstol?
Is it not concerned that lasting peace in Liberia can be achieved only when those held responsible for crimes under international law are held criminally responsible?
Hvilke skridt agter Kommissionen at tage for at sikre, at de liberianske soldater, der var indblandet i disse ugerninger, endelig bliver stillet for en domstol, og at kvinder og børn i Liberia ikke længere behøver at frygte dem, der har til opgave at beskytte dem?
What action does the Commission propose to take in order to ensure that the Liberian soldiers involved are finally brought to justice and that women and children in Liberia no longer have to fear those who are employed to protect them?

Om: Spildevandsforurening af Themsen
Subject: Sewage contamination of the River Thames
Er Kommissionen informeret om, at de mængder af urenset spildevand, der hver måned siden januar 2001 er blevet udledt i Themsen i London, tilsyneladende langt overstiger de tidligere skøn og nu anslås at andrage 240 mio. kubikmeter?
Has the Commission been informed that the quantities of raw sewage pumped into the River Thames in London every month since January 2001 apparently far exceed previous estimates and are said now to total 240 million cubic metres?
Er Kommissionen klar over, at den britiske regering har afvist planer om at anlægge en rørledning på ca. 35 km, hvorigennem overskydende spildevand kunne føres fra Storlondon til rensningsanlæg ved Themsens munding?
Is the Commission aware that the UK Government has rejected plans to build a 22-mile tunnel to take overflow sewage from central London to sewage works at the mouth of the Thames?
Overtræder Det Forenede Kongerige bestemmelserne i direktivet om rensning af byspildevand?
Is the UK in breach of the Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive?
Agter Kommissionen i så fald at indlede traktatbrudsprocedurer for at sikre, at der træffes de fornødne foranstaltninger for at begrænse udledningen af så store mængder af urenset spildevand?
If it is, does the Commission intend to commence infringement proceedings so as to ensure that the necessary action to curb the discharge of such quantities of raw sewage is taken?

Om: Korruption i EU's medlemsstater
Subject: Corruption in EU Member States
I organisationen Transparency Internationals seneste vurdering, dateret 9. december 2004, hævdes det, at i et rundspørge udtalte mere end 10% af de adspurgte i Grækenland og Letland, at et medlem af deres husstand havde betalt bestikkelse inden for de sidste 12 måneder, og at tallet i Den Tjekkiske Republik oversteg 20% og i Litauen 30%.
The most recent assessment by the organisation Transparency International, dated 9 December 2004, claimed that, of those questioned in a survey, more than 10% of people in Greece and Latvia claimed that a member of their household had paid a bribe in the past 12 months, that in the Czech Republic the figure exceeded 20% and that in Lithuania it exceeded 30%.
Hvornår har spørgsmålet om korruption i en bestemt medlemsstat sidst været oppe i Rådet, og hvad var resultatet?
When was the last occasion on which the issue of corruption in an existing Member State was raised in the Council, and what was the outcome?
Den 4. juni 2003 forelagde Kommissionen en meddelelse for til Rådet, Europa-Parlamentet og Det Europæiske Økonomiske og Sociale Udvalg om en samlet EU-politik mod korruption.
On 4 June 2003, the Commission presented a Communication to the Council, the European Parliament and the European Economic and Social Committee on a comprehensive EU policy against corruption.
Denne med­delelse blev for nylig drøftet i Den Tværfaglige Gruppe vedrørende Organiseret Kriminalitet.
This Communication was recently discussed in the Multidisciplinary Group on organised crime.
Med­delelsen slår ganske vist til lyd for indførelse af en ordning for EU-kontrol med instrumenter til be­kæmpelse af korruption, men peger ikke på omfanget af korruption i bestemte medlemsstater, og Rådets arbejdsgruppe drøftede heller ikke omfanget af korruption i de nuværende medlemsstater.
Whilst the Communication advocates the establishment of an EU monitoring system of anti-corruption instruments, it does not point to the state of corruption in particular Member States and, likewise, the Council Working Party did not engage in a discussion of the state of corruption in existing Member States.
Rådet sigter mod at vedtage konklusioner om Kommissionens meddelelse.
The Council is seeking to adopt conclusion on the Communication from the Commission.

Om: Direktivet om tilsætningsstoffer i fødevarer
Subject: Food Supplements Directive
Kommissionen ved formodentlig, at SMV'er der producerer tilsætningsstoffer til fødevarer og naturmedicin har fremført, at omkostningerne ved at efterleve EU's lovgivning vil tvinge dem til at dreje nøglen om.
The Commission will be aware that SMUs manufacturing food supplements and natural health remedies have claimed that the costs of compliance with EU legislation will force them out of business.
Vil Kommissionen opgive sine seneste skøn over de omkostninger producenterne sandsynligvis vil pådrage sig i forsøget på at bevise effektiviteten af deres produkter, (a) under den forudsætning at der ikke foreligger testoplysninger og (b) under den forudsætning at producenten allerede sidder inde med ganske mange oplysninger om produktet, men endnu mangler at leve op til de ekstra krav i direktivet?
Will the Commission indicate its latest estimates of the costs likely to be incurred by manufacturers in seeking to prove the efficacy of their products, (a) assuming that no test information is currently available, (b) assuming that the manufacturer already has considerable information about the product but has yet to meet the additional requirements of the Directive?
Hvad er Kommissionens skøn over antallet af producenter der giver sig af med at fremstille sådanne produkter, over hvor mange af dem der allerede er i besiddelse af den maksimale mængde oplysninger, og over antallet af produkter som muligvis skal trækkes tilbage fra markedet, ikke fordi de i sig selv er farlige, men fordi datakravene vil være for dyre til at produktionen af dem fortsat vil være økonomisk rentabel?
What are the Commission’s estimates of the number of manufacturers involved in producing such goods, the proportion that will already have the maximum amount of information and the number of products that may have to be withdrawn from the market, not because they are in themselves unsafe but because the data requirements will be too expensive to sustain the commercial viability of their production?

Om: Nationalisering af fast ejendom i Kroatien
Subject: Nationalisation of property in Croatia
I Kroatien forekommer der stadig tilfælde af statslig ekspropriering af italienske statsborgeres boliger på grundlag af en forfatningsstridig lov af 1974 om nationalisering (vedtaget under Titos styre), som endnu ikke er blevet ophævet.
Large numbers of cases are constantly being reported in Croatia of the government expropriating property belonging to Italian citizens, under an anti-constitutional law of 1974 on nationalisations, adopted under the Tito regime and still not repealed.
I betragtning af at Kroatien med undertegnelsen af den europæiske forfatning den 29. oktober i Rom officielt har udtrykt ønske om at blive medlem af Den Europæiske Union, hvilken holdning agter Rådet at indtage med hensyn til denne forskelsbehandling, som italienske statsborgere, der ejer fast ejendom i Kroatien, for øjeblikket udsættes for?
Since Croatia officially expressed its desire to join the EU at the signing ceremony for the European Constitution held in Rome on 29 October 2004, can the Council state what position it intends to take on this discrimination against Italian citizens owning property in Croatia?
Der blev den 29. oktober 2001 undertegnet en stabiliserings- og associeringsaftale mellem Kroatien og De Europæiske Fællesskaber og deres medlemsstater.
On 29 October 2001 a Stabilisation and Association Agreement was signed between Croatia and the European Communities and its Member States.
Aftalen trådte i kraft den 1. februar 2005 efter en langvarig ratifikationsprocedure, som først blev afsluttet, da de kroatiske myndigheder havde vist, at de var villige til at samarbejde med Det Internationale Krigsforbrydertribunal vedrø­rende det Tidligere Jugoslavien (ICTY), hvilket for nogle medlemsstater var en betingelse for, at de ratificerede aftalen.
It entered into force on 1 February 2005, after a long ratification procedure, which was concluded only after the Croatian authorities showed their goodwill to co-operate with the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY), without which some Member States were not ready to proceed.
Artiklen indeholder desuden en bestemmelse om, at Kroatien i løbet af fire år efter aftalens ikraft­træden gradvis tilpasser »sin lovgivning om EU-statsborgeres erhvervelse af fast ejendom i Kroatien for at sikre dem samme behandling som kroatiske statsborgere«.
Moreover, the article introduces an obligation for Croatia to progressively adjust, within four years from the entry into force of the Agreement, ‘its legislation concerning the acquisition of real estate in Croatia by nationals of the Member States of the European Union to ensure the same treatment as compared to Croatian nationals’.
Da stabiliserings- og associeringsaftalen, som er den første kontraktaftale mellem Kroatien og Den Europæiske Union, nu er trådt i kraft, vil Rådet herefter kunne behandle spørgsmål vedrørende EU-statsborgeres ejendomsret.
It is therefore thanks to the entry into force of the Stabilisation and Association Agreement, the first contractual agreement between Croatia and the European Union, that the Council will be able to deal with issues related to property rights of nationals of EU Member States.

Om: Tiltrædelsespartnerskab med Bulgarien: Nuklear sikkerhed og demontering af enhederne 3 og 4 i atomkraftværket i Kozloduy
Subject: Accession Partnership with Bulgaria: nuclear safety and decommissioning of units 3 and 4 of the Kozloduy nuclear plant
Af oplysninger fremgår det, at der i Bulgarien foregår drøftelser om forlængelse af levetiden for enhederne 3 og 4 i atomkraftværket Kozloduy.
IIt is reported that discussions are under way in Bulgaria about whether to extend the working life of units 3 and 4 of the Kozloduy nuclear plant.
Under henvisning til, at forbedring af den nukleare sikkerhed udgør en prioritet for såvel Den Europæiske Union som tiltrædelses- og kandidatlandene, og at datoen for endelig nedlukning af enhederne 3 og 4 er blevet fastsat til senest 2006 ifølge Rådets afgørelse om principperne, prioriteterne, de mellemsigtede mål og betingelserne indeholdt i tiltrædelsespartnerskabet med Bulgarien EFT L 145 af 12.6.2003, s. 1 , og ifølge de forpligtelser, der er indeholdt i Sofia-memorandummet, der blev underskrevet af Bulgarien sammen med Kommissionen i 1999, bedes Rådet besvare følgende: 1.
Bearing in mind that improving nuclear safety is a priority both for the European Union and future Member States and candidate countries and that the date for the definitive closure of units 3 and 4 has been set at 2006 at the latest, according to the Council Decision on the principles, priorities, intermediate objectives and conditions contained in the Accession Partnership with Bulgaria OJ L 145, 12.6.2003, p.1 . and the pledges made in the Sofia memorandum which was signed by Bulgaria with the Commission in 1999, will the Council say: 1.
Har Bulgarien truffet afgørelse om lukning og demontering af enhederne 3 og 4 i Kozloduy, som ikke for et rimeligt beløb vil kunne opgraderes til det internationalt anerkendte sikkerhedsniveau? 2.
Has Bulgaria decided to close and decommission units 3 and 4 at Kozloduy which cannot be upgraded to internationally acceptable standards at a reasonable cost? 2.
Hvilke foranstaltninger agter Rådet at træffe, hvis oplysningerne om forlængelse af levetiden for disse enheder til trods for de forpligtelser, som Bulgarien har indgået, skulle blive bekræftet? 3.
What measures does it intend to take if reports that their working life will be extended beyond the agreed deadline, despite the commitments made by Bulgaria, are confirmed? 3.
Hvilke virkninger vil en sådan afgørelse få for tiltrædelsespartnerskabet mellem EU og Bulgarien samt støtten gennem EU's finansieringsinstrumenter og de lån, som ydes af Euratom til Bulgarien til demontering af de allerede nedlagte enheder 1 og 2, og til forbedring af sikkerheden i enhederne 5 og 6 til et niveau, der er sammenligneligt med sikkerhedesniveauet i tilsvarende reaktorer i Unionen i dag?
What consequences will such a decision have on the Accession Partnership between the EU and Bulgaria and on support through the EU's financial instruments and loans granted by EURATOM to Bulgaria for the dismantling of units 1 and 2 which have already been decommissioned and for improving the safety of units 5 and 6, so that they attain a level of safety comparable to that in similar reactors in the Union today?
Som det vil være de ærede parlamentsmedlemmer bekendt, har EU til stadighed under tiltrædelses­forhandlingerne, både med Bulgarien og med de andre lande i den femte udvidelse, fremhævet vig­tigheden af høje standarder for nuklear sikkerhed og et højt miljøbeskyttelsesniveau.
As the Honourable Members are aware, the Union has consistently highlighted the importance of high standards of nuclear safety and of a high level of environmental protection throughout the accession negotiations with Bulgaria, as with the other countries of the fifth enlargement.
I den forbin­delse fik Rådets Gruppe vedrørende Nuklear Sikkerhed til opgave at undersøge sikkerheden i nu­kleare anlæg i de pågældende lande samt fremsætte henstillinger og overvåge disses gennemførelse.
To this end, the Council Working Party on Nuclear Safety was mandated to review the safety of nuclear installations in these countries, to make recommendations and to monitor their implementation.
Tiltrædelsesforhandlingerne med Bulgarien blev formelt afsluttet i december 2004.
Accession negotiations with Bulgaria were formally concluded last year.
Under tiltrædel­sesforhandlingerne om energikapitlet gav Bulgarien tilsagn om at lukke Kozloduy-kernekraftvær­kets enhed 1 og enhed 2 inden 2003, og dette tilsagn har Bulgarien opfyldt ved at lukke de nævnte enheder ved udgangen af 2002.
In the accession negotiations on the Energy chapter, Bulgaria committed itself to close units 1 and 2 of the Kozloduy Nuclear Power Plant before the year 2003 and has honoured this commitment by shutting down these units at the end of 2002.
Med hensyn til enhed 3 og enhed 4 har Bulgarien bekræftet sit til­sagn om at nedlægge dem i 2006.
As for units 3 and 4, Bulgaria has confirmed its commitment to shut them down for decommissioning in 2006.
Dette tilsagn vil fremgå af tiltrædelsestraktaten for Bulgarien og Rumænien, som undertegnes ved udgangen af april; samme traktat vil også omfatte de aftalte be­stemmelser vedrørende gennemførelsen af yderligere finansiel EU‑bistand til Bulgarien til støtte for lukningen af enhederne 1-4.
This commitment will be reflected in the Accession Treaty for Bulgaria and Romania to be signed at the end of April, which will also include the agreed modalities for implementing the further EU financial assistance to Bulgaria in support of the closure of units 1 to 4.
Som støtte til Bulgariens indsats for at nedlægge værket blev der inden for rammerne af tiltrædelsesforhandlingerne bevilget 140 mio. EUR for de resterende år frem til tiltrædelsen ud over de 200 mio. EUR i bistand ydet som led i et særligt Phare-program plus yderli­gere 210 mio. EUR, der vil blive bevilget i form af lige store trancher på 70 mio. EUR for hvert af årene 2007, 2008 og 2009.
In support of the decommissioning effort, within the framework of the accession negotiations, EUR 140 million were agreed for the remaining years until accession in addition to the EUR 200 million assistance under a Special Phare programme, plus an additional EUR 210 million to be committed in equal tranches of EUR 70 million for the years 2007, 2008 and 2009.
Dette bringer EU's samlede bidrag op på 550 mio. EUR for perioden 2000-2009.
This brings the total contribution of the EU up to EUR 550 million for the period 2000-2009.
Midlerne forvaltes i vid udstrækning af Den Europæiske Bank for Genopbygning og Udvikling via Den Internationale Støttefond for Nedlæggelsen af Kozloduy-kernekraftværket, som også andre donorer bidrager til.
The funds are largely managed by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development through the Kozloduy International Decommissioning Support Fund, to which other donors also contribute.
Bulgarien har fortsat gennemførelsen af henstillingerne i Rådets rapport af juni 2001 om nuklear sikkerhed i forbindelse med udvidelsen og i den efterfølgende peer review-statusrapport fra juni 2002, som også lægger behørig vægt på tilsagnene om lukning.
Bulgaria has continued to implement the recommendations contained in the June 2001 Council Report on Nuclear Safety in the context of Enlargement and the subsequent Peer Review Status Report of June 2002, which also give due respect to closure commitments.
I den efterfølgende peer re­view-rapport om nuklear sikkerhed i Bulgarien fra marts 2004 var konklusionen den, at et stort antal henstillinger allerede var blevet gennemført, og at de resterende var i færd med at blive gennemført efter de fastlagte tidsplaner, idet de planlagte foranstaltninger, der stadig manglede at blive gennem­ført, forekommer hensigtsmæssige og gennemførlige for så vidt angår menneskelige og finansielle ressourcer.
The subsequent Peer Review Report on Nuclear Safety in Bulgaria of March 2004 concluded that many of the recommendations had already been implemented, that those remaining were in progress according to established schedules, and that the planned measures which had yet to be implemented seemed appropriate and achievable in terms of human and financial resources.
