Har Kommissionen i betragtning heraf afkrævet Det Forenede Kongerige — i dets egenskab af besættelsesmagt og som administrator af udviklingsfonden for Irak i henhold til resolution nr. 1483 — en fuld redegørelse for anvendelsen af disse midler, som i maj 2003 blev vurderet til 23 mia. USD, hvilket burde have været tilstrækkeligt til at etablere hospitaler, der kunne behandle disse børn?
In this light, has the Commission pressed the UK, as one of the occupying powers designated by Resolution 1483 as Trustees of ‘The Development Fund for Iraq,’ to properly account for these assets estimated as USD 23 billion in May 2003, which should have supplied the means for hospitals to treat children properly?

Den 13. oktober 2006 modtog Muhammad Yunus Nobels fredspris sammen med den institution, han har grundlagt, Grameen Bank, med hvilken han har givet mere end 2 millioner indbyggere i Bangladesh mulighed for at bryde fattigdommens onde cirkel.
On 13 October 2006, Muhammad Yunus collected the Nobel Peace Prize on behalf of the institution which he has set up (the Grameen Bank) and which has enabled him to offer over 2 million Bangladeshis a chance to escape from the poverty spiral.
Desuden har han gjort kvinderne til vigtige aktører i udviklingen ved først og fremmest at låne til dem.
Furthermore, by lending mainly to women he has ensured that women play a special role in the development process.
Mikrofinansiering, som er blevet udbredt både i udviklingslandene og i Vesten, er blevet anerkendt for sin positive indvirkning på fattigdomsbekæmpelsen og mere globalt set på udviklingslandenes stabilisering, både på det økonomiske og det politiske plan.
Microfinance (which has evolved both in the developing world and in the West) has received recognition (if any were needed) on account of the positive effect it has on reducing poverty and — at a wider level — on stabilising developing countries in both economic and political terms.
I 2005 havde mere end 80 millioner mennesker adgang til mikrokredit i 58 lande.
In 2005, over 80 million people had access to microcredit in 58 countries.
I lyset af dette instruments store succes forekommer det i dag afgørende at integrere det fuldt ud i Den Europæiske Unions udviklingspolitik.
Since microcredit has proved such a successful tool, it should now be fully incorporated into the EU's development policy.
Hvordan påtænker Kommissionen således at fremme anvendelsen af mikrokredit i udviklingslandene?
So how does the Commission plan to encourage the use of microcredit in developing countries?
Er der planer om støtte gennem Den Europæiske Investeringsbank til mikrofinansieringsinstitutterne?
Has European Investment Bank support for microfinance institutions been considered?
I sin beslutning af 21. november 2005 understregede Den Parlamentariske Forsamling for Euro-Middelhavssamarbejdet i punkt 16 betydningen af mikrokredit for fattigdomsbekæmpelsen og for finansieringen af mindre økonomiske projekter.
Furthermore, in Article 16 of its resolution of 21 November 2005 the Euro-Mediterranean Parliamentary Assembly (EMPA) drew attention to the importance of microcredit as a means of tackling poverty and of financing small-scale economic projects.
I en region, hvor 30 % af befolkningen lever for under to dollar om dagen, er det afgørende at stille instrumenter til rådighed, der er tilpasset de særlige økonomiske og sociale omstændigheder i lokalområdet for at sikre vækstens bæredygtighed og forbedring af befolkningernes levevilkår.
In a region where 30 % of the population lives on less than USD 2 per day, tools suited to the local social and economic conditions must be made available in order to ensure that growth and improvements in people's living conditions are sustainable over the long term.
Vil Kommissionen tage højde for disse overvejelser i Barcelona-processen og den europæiske naboskabspolitik?
Is the Commission planning to incorporate these considerations into the Barcelona process and the EU's neighbourhood policy?
Hvilke foranstaltninger påtænker den at træffe for at fremme adgangen til kredit for de personer, der er udelukket fra det traditionelle banksystem?
What action does it intend to take in order to facilitate access to credit in the case of people who are excluded from the traditional banking system?

Om: Sundhedspersonale i udviklingslandene
Subject: Health workers in the South
I sin meddelelse af 12. december 2005 om EU's handlingsstrategi vedrørende manglen på sundhedspersonale i udviklingslandene mindede Kommissionen om de dramatiske forhold i disse lande, og navnlig i Afrika, hvor kun 0,8 af 1 000 indbyggere er beskæftiget inden for sundhedsvæsenet, hvilket er den laveste procentsats i verden.
In its communication of 12 December 2005 on the Community action strategy to tackle the critical shortage of health workers in developing countries, the Commission drew attention to the alarming situation in the countries concerned — particularly in Africa, which has the world's lowest ratio of health workers to population (only 0.8 health workers per 1000 inhabitants).
Mangel på uddannelser og dårlige arbejdsforhold skaber en uhensigtsmæssig fordeling af sundhedspersonalet, således at landdistrikterne, hvor der er det største behov, svigtes til fordel for de større byer og vestlige lande, hvor lønningerne og levestandarden er mere attraktive.
A lack of training and poor working conditions lead to a maldistribution of health workers: rural areas — where needs are greatest — are neglected in favour of cities or western countries, which are more attractive in terms of wages and living conditions.
I nogle lande har hjerneflugten et sådant omfang, at antallet af ansatte i sundhedsvæsenet, der udvandrer, overstiger antallet af nyuddannede.
In certain countries the ‘brain drain’ has assumed such proportions that the number of health workers emigrating each year exceeds the number of newly-qualified staff.
De risikerer at blive smittet med en lang række sygdomme, bl.a. aids, som stadig giver størst anledning til bekymring på sundhedsområdet i udviklingslandene, især i Afrika.
A shortage of resources prevents them from taking proper care of patients and exposes medical staff to the risk of contracting a wide range of diseases, including AIDS (which continues to be the main health concern in developing countries, especially in Africa.)
De ngo'er, der er aktive i udviklingslandene, har hidtil gjort et stort stykke arbejde, men adgangen til god sundhedspleje for alle kan ikke sikres uden en styrkelse af de offentlige tjenesteydelser fra disse lande.
The NGOs active in the South have already achieved a great deal, but access to high-quality healthcare for all cannot be provided unless the public services of the countries concerned are greatly improved.
Hvilke programmer arbejder Kommissionen på med henblik på at hjælpe udviklingslandene med at gennemføre styrkede sundhedspolitikker og tilbyde langsigtede løsninger på problemet med manglende sundhedspersonale?
Hence what programmes is the Commission preparing in order to help the developing countries to introduce more substantial health policies which will provide long-term solutions to the problem of the lack of health workers?
Hvor påtænker den at finde midlerne dertil?
What resources is it intending to marshal for this purpose?

Om: Foreslået overtagelse af INPS-sikrede lån inden for landbrugssektoren ved afviklingsselskabet SCCI (INPS = Istituto Nazionale Previdenza Sociale — en italiensk pensionsinstitution)
Subject: Proposed purchase of INPS securitised loans in the agricultural sector by the SCCI special-purpose vehicle (INPS = Istituto Nazionale Previdenza Sociale — an Italian pensions body)
Med en foreløbig kontrakt undertegnet den 13. november 2006 lovede et bankkonsortium (Unicredit og Deutsche Bank) at overtage de landbrugslån, der forfaldt inden udgangen af 2004, for at foretage en omstrukturering bestående i indgåelse af aftaler med de overførte debitorer, som forpligtede sig til at betale lånene ved at vælge en af følgende to muligheder: a) at foretage en enkelt betaling svarende til mellem 22 og 30 % af gælden eller b) at foretage betaling over 40 lige store kvartalsvise rater (dvs. over ti år) svarende til mellem 29 og 39,8 % af det skyldige beløb.
By means of a preliminary contact signed on 13 November 2006, a consortium of banks (Unicredit and Deutsche Bank) has undertaken to purchase agricultural loans which matured up to the end of 2004 with a view to ‘restructuring’ them by means of compromise agreements with the transferred debtors, who have undertaken to pay off their debts by choosing one of two options: (a) to make a single payment equivalent to between 22 and 30 % of the amount owed; (b) to make a deferred payment comprising 40 equal quarterly instalments (i.e. over 10 years) totalling between 29 and 39.8 % of the amount owed.
Lånebeløbet blev anslået til 5,9 mia. EUR.
The amount of the loans was estimated at EUR 5.9 billion.
I en rapport, der blev forelagt i december 2006, vurderede konsulentfirmaet KPMG, at »den økonomiske værdi af porteføljen kan anslås til at ligge mellem 728 mio. EUR og 804 mio. EUR«.
In a report submitted in December 2006 the KPMG consultancy company stated that the economic value of the portfolio was estimated to lie between approximately EUR 728 million and approximately EUR 804 million.
INPS's bestyrelse vil ikke give sin tilslutning til denne aftale, medmindre der foreligger en udtrykkelig tilladelse fra de tilsynsførende myndigheder.
The INPS managerial board will not allow the Institute to accede to the agreement unless the supervisory authorities grant explicit authorisation.
I en meddelelse har INPS's revisorer udtrykt forbehold over for de økonomiske fordele, der kan opnås fra transaktionen som helhed, og de har også henledt opmærksomheden på risikoen for, at der i mangel af lovgivning i praksis vil blive givet »en pensions- og socialsikkerhedsamnesti«, som vil få indvirkninger på betalingen af ydelser, der ikke er baseret på en korrekt indbetaling af bidrag.
In an information note the INPS College of Auditors has expressed reservations concerning the economic benefit to be derived from the operation as a whole and it has also drawn attention to the risk that, in the absence of legislation, a ‘pensions and social-security amnesty’ will in practice be granted which will have repercussions on the payment of benefits which are not underpinned by proper tax contributions.
Hvad er Rådets mening om ovenstående transaktioner på baggrund af fællesskabsretten?
What view does the Council take of this matter in the light of Community law?
Rådet vil ikke tage stilling til en sag, der for øjeblikket undersøges af en medlemsstats nationale myndigheder.
The Council will not take a position on a case being currently examined by the national authorities of a Member State.
Med hensyn til de eventuelle aspekter vedrørende fællesskabsrettens anvendelse er det Kommissionen, der i sin egenskab af traktaternes vogter har ansvaret for at overvåge medlemsstaternes gennemførelse af fællesskabsretten.

Om: Fremskaffelse af originale reservedele til mærkeure
Subject: Obtaining original spare parts for branded watches
Urmagere i alle EU's medlemsstater har for tiden problemer med at fremskaffe originale reservedele til mærkeure, da producenterne i nogen tid har nægtet at levere dem disse dele.
Watch repairers in all the EU Member States are currently having difficulty in obtaining original spare parts for branded watches — parts which the manufacturers have been withholding from them for some time.
På denne måde tvinges kunderne/forbrugerne til at lade deres ure reparere hos producenterne med tidsspilde og betydeligt højere omkostninger til følge.
This means that customers/consumers are required to have their watches repaired by the manufacturers — a slow and considerably more expensive process.
Den europæiske sammenslutning af urmagerforbund, Confédération Européenne des Associations d'Horlogers Réparateurs (CEAHR), har allerede gjort Generaldirektoratet for Konkurrence opmærksom på den vanskelige situation, som de selvstændige urmagere befinder sig i, og som indebærer, at de trues på deres levebrød af producentvirksomhedernes monopolistiske offensiv, som vil fordreje konkurrencen og det frie marked.
The European Confederation of Watch and Clock Repairers' Associations (CEAHR) has already made the Commission's ‘Competition’ DG aware of this deplorable state of affairs, in which independent repairers are being put under pressure by the watch manufacturers' attempt to establish a monopoly which will distort competition and the free market.
Hvis denne situation fortsætter, vil de selvstændige urmageres fortsatte eksistens blive bragt i stor fare.
If this state of affairs were to continue, the survival of watch-repairing as an independent trade would be seriously jeopardised.
Kan de selvstændige urmagere kræve at få tilsendt reservedele og dermed få sat en stopper for denne monopolistiske adfærd? 3.
Can independent watch repairers insist on being supplied with spare parts (which would put a stop to the manufacturers' monopolistic scheme)?

Det tidligere medlem af Parlamentet Rolf Linkohr har siden 2005 drevet en konsulentvirksomhed for energispørgsmål.
Since 2005, former MEP Rolf Linkohr has been running a consultancy on energy issues.
Flere af virksomhedens kunder er store energiforetagender med stærke kommercielle interesser.
Several of the firm's clients are large energy companies with strong commercial interests.
Samtidig præsenterer Linkohr sig som særlig rådgiver for energikommissær Andris Piebalgs.
At the same time, Linkohr presents himself as a special adviser to the Energy Commissioner Andris Piebalgs.
Ifølge Kommissionens egne forskrifter skal en tjenestemand udføre sit hverv i Fællesskabets almene interesse.
According to the Commission's own regulations, an official shall carry out his duties solely with the interests of the Communities in mind.
Det turde være indlysende, at dette ikke er tilfældet med Rolf Linkohr, hvis væsentligste indtægt formentlig kommer fra store foretagender med meget specifikke kommercielle interesser i, hvordan EU's energipolitik og lignende bør udformes.
It should be evident that this is not the case with Rolf Linkohr whose main source of income would seem to be large companies with very specific commercial interests in how EU energy policy and related fields should be formulated.
