Om: Taxiregulering i EU
Subject: Taxi regulation in the EU
Dereguleringen af taxier i Irland er stadig et stort problem.
The deregulation of taxis in Ireland is still a major problem; many taxi drivers are struggling due to the ease of obtaining a taxi licence in Ireland.
Mange taxivognmænd lider under, at det er blevet lettere at få en taxilicens i Irland.
The number of licensed taxi drivers is continuously rising.
Kan Kommissionen oplyse, om der findes nogen EU-lovgivning om taxikørsel?
Can the Commission confirm if there is any EU legislation in place dealing with taxis?
Findes der f.eks. nogen lovgivning om forholdet mellem antallet af taxier og indbyggere i EU eller nogen andre minimumsstandarder?
For example are there any laws relating to the ratio of taxis to populations within the EU or any other minimum standards?

Om: Industriemissionsdirektivet: emissionsgrænseværdier kontra BAT-emissionsniveauer
Subject: Directive on industrial emissions: emission limit values vs. emission levels associated with BATs
I Kommissionens regi (IPPC-kontoret i Sevilla) har medlemslandene, de berørte industrier og miljøorganisationer haft en frugtbar udveksling af erfaringer, og i BAT-referencedokumenterne beskrives den bedste tilgængelige teknik (BAT) for bestemte industrigrene.
After a productive exchange of experience overseen by the Commission's EIPPC Offices in Seville, Member States, the industries concerned and environmental protection organisations draw up the BAT reference documents, which outline the Best Available Techniques (BATs) aimed at specific industry sectors.
Det understreges her hele tiden, at de driftsværdier, der er nævnt i BAT-referencedokumenterne, ikke er emissionsgrænseværdier.
In that connection, it has always been emphasised that the operating values laid down in the BAT reference documents are not emission limit values.
Emissionsgrænseværdierne skal nemlig også overholdes under de mest ugunstige betingelser, og for at de kan overholdes sikkert, ligger de typisk over driftsværdierne.
Such values must be met, even under the least favourable conditions, whereas operating values, by contrast, are typically lower than emission limit values, and can therefore be met without problem.
I Kommissionens tekstforslag til et nyt industriemissionsdirektiv (KOM(2007)0844) ser man nu følgende formulering:
The Commission proposal for a new directive on industrial emissions (COM(2007)0844) suggests the following wording:
Gør Kommissionens formulering det ikke nærliggende at slutte, at de emissionsniveauer (driftsværdier), der er forbundet med BAT, nu alligevel de facto bliver bindende grænseværdier?
Can it not be concluded from the Commission's proposed wording that the BAT-associated emission values (operating values) will in fact become de facto binding emission limit values?
Er det i det mindste ikke muligt at fortolke ovenstående ordlyd sådan? —
Is such an interpretation not at least possible on the basis of the text quoted above?
Hvad er efter Kommissionens opfattelse forskellen mellem emissionsgrænseværdier og de BAT-emissionsniveauer, som er beskrevet i BAT-referencedokumenterne? —
In the Commission's view, what is the difference between emission limit values and the BAT-associated emission values as described in the BAT reference documents?
Vil den principielle forskel mellem BAT-emissionsniveauerne (driftsværdier) og emissionsgrænseværdier ikke i sagens natur medføre hyppige overskridelser af BAT-emissionsniveauerne, hvis disse bliver de facto-emissionsgrænseværdier?
Will exceeding the BAT-associated values not inevitably become the norm if they become de facto emission limit values, owing to the fundamental difference between the BAT-associated emission values (operating values) and the emission limit values?
Hvilke retlige (administrative/strafferetlige) følger får dette?
What sort of administrative and criminal law consequences will this have?
Vil det ikke skabe unødig usikkerhed i befolkningen? —
Will it not cause unnecessary public concern?
Hvis BAT-emissionsniveauernes retlige karakter ændres, vil man så stadig kunne have en åben udveksling af synspunkter i Sevilla-processen som basis for en ajourføring i takt med den miljøtekniske udvikling?
Should the legal status of the BAT-associated emission values be modified in this way, will open exchanges of views and, on that basis, further innovative environmental developments as part of the Seville Process still be possible?

Om: Sayara Rovshan Geydarovas frihedsberøvelse og retssag i Aserbajdsjan
Subject: Sayara Rovshan Geydarova's detention and court case in Azerbaijan
Er Kommissionen bekendt med sagen om advokaten Sayara Rovshan Geydarova fra Aserbajdsjan?
Is the Commission aware of the case of Azerbaijani lawyer Sayara Rovshan Geydarova?
Sayara Rovshan Geydarova er tidligere kandidat til Ukraines parlament, og hendes retssag har kørt siden 2005 efter falske anklager om gennembankning af fire mænd.
Sayara Rovshan Geydarova is a former parliamentary candidate, whose court case has been ongoing since 2005 and follows false accusations of beating up four men.
Disse påstande opstod, efter at hun påtog sig en sag om en legeplads på vegne af 87 familier.
These allegations arose after she took on a case on behalf of 87 families following a development in place of a children’s playground.
I løbet af en række retsmøder over en fireårig periode har kun ét påstået offer givet møde i retten.
During a number of court sessions over a four-year period, only one alleged victim has attended court.
Desuden er Sayara blevet tilbageholdt i flere forskellige straffeanstalter, herunder ulovligt tilbageholdt på en psykiatrisk afdeling i 12 dage.
In addition Sayara has been held in a number of different penal establishments, including being illegally held for 12 days on a psychiatric ward.
Hvilke tiltag har Kommissionen iværksat i denne sag?
What action has the Commission taken on this matter?

Den bulgarske avis Standart afslørede den 15. april http://paper.standartnews.com/en/article.php?d=2009-04-15&article=27241, http://paper.standartnews.com/en/article.php?d=2009-04-17&article=27268. , at to bulgarske tjenestemænd, Andrey Lavlov, tidligere leder af programkoordineringsafdelingen for EU-midler for direktoratet for konkurrencedygtighed, og Ivayla Ilieva, sekretær for nævnte direktorat, skulle havde afgivet et bud på netop det EU-støtteprogram, de havde været med til at udvikle.
The Bulgarian newspaper Standart revealed on 15 April http://paper.standartnews.com/en/article.php?d=2009-04-15&article=27241, http://paper.standartnews.com/en/article.php?d=2009-04-17&article=27268 that two Bulgarian officials, Andrey Lavlov, former head of the Programme Coordination Department with the European Funds for Competitiveness Directorate, and Ivayla Ilieva, secretary of the said Directorate, were found to have submitted a tender for the very EU funding programme they had helped to develop.
De havde sagt op fra direktoratet og var begyndt at arbejde hos BusinessDotComm, før tilbuddene skulle indsendes og vandt udbuddet.
They had resigned from the Directorate and started work for ‘BusinessDotComm’ before the bids were due to be submitted, and won the tender.
Det panel, der er ansvarlig for tildeling af den offentlige indkøbsaftale til deres tidligere kolleger, har afvist, at der var tale om en interessekonflikt.
The panel responsible for awarding the public procurement tender to its former colleagues has denied there was a conflict of interest.
Da dette ikke er den første anklage om korruption i forbindelse med finansieringsprocedurer, hvilke skridt tager Kommissionen så for at sikre, at dens støtteprogrammer i Bulgarien bliver strengt kontrolleret og ikke misbruges?
As this is not the first allegation of corruption in funding procedures, what steps is the Commission taking to ensure that its funding programmes in Bulgaria are rigorously controlled and not abused?
Uanset den normale uddelegering af ansvar til de nationale myndigheder bliver der taget højde for mit forslag om, at der oprettes et uafhængigt tilsynsudvalg for at sikre, at EU-midlerne: a. målrettes og b. ikke kanaliseres videre til forkerte formål, samt at der er en ordentlig evaluering af effektiviteten af midlernes anvendelse?
Notwithstanding the normal delegation of responsibility to national authorities, is consideration being given to my proposal that an independent oversight board be constituted to ensure that EU funds are: a. well targeted and b. not siphoned off for improper purposes and that there is proper evaluation of the effectiveness of fund use?

Om: Toskanske dioxinkyllinger tæt ved forbrændingsanlægget i Montale (Pistoia)
Subject: Tuscan dioxin-contaminated chickens near the incinerator in Montale (PT)
Som man kunne læse i den lokale presse, har toskanske komitéer og foreninger klaget over, at fem kyllingekødsprøver — ud af otte undersøgte prøver — indeholdt dioxiner (herunder pcb-lignende dioxiner) i en højere koncentration end den tilladte grænseværdi ifølge gældende lovgivning, nemlig 4 nanogram pr. kilo.
As reported in the local press, Tuscan committees and associations have condemned the fact that five samples (out of eight) of chicken meat contained dioxin (including dioxin-like PCBs) at levels higher than the maximum legal levels, i.e. 4 nanograms per kilo.
Prøverne, som blev analyseret af det zootekniske forsøgsinstitut for regionerne Lazio og Toscana, blev indsamlet i løbet af 2008 i nedfaldsområdet omkring forbrændingsanlægget i Montale og i et enkelt tilfælde nogle få hundrede meter fra forbrændingsanlægget i Baciacavallo.
The samples, analysed by the Istituto Zooprofilattico Sperimentale (animal health institute) of the Lazio and Tuscany regions, were collected in 2008 in the fallout area around the Montale incinerator and, in one case, a few hundred metres away from the Baciacavallo incinerator.
Analyserne viste værdier på op til 46,2 nanogram pr. kilo, hvilket er over 11 gange mere end den lovbestemte grænseværdi.
The tests showed values of up to 46.2 nanograms per kilo, which is over 11 times the legal limit.
at indholdet af dioxin i kyllingekød i fem ud af otte prøver overstiger de lovbestemte grænseværdier, —
the dioxin content in the chicken meat, in five samples out of eight, exceeds the legal limits; —
at denne overskridelse også blev konstateret i æggene og i den eneste oksekødsprøve, der blev undersøgt, —
this excess dioxin was found also in eggs and in the only sample of beef analysed; —
at der i sådanne tilfælde ifølge gældende lovgivning er et absolut forbud mod at anvende produkterne til konsum, —
in such cases, existing legislation provides for a total ban on consumption; —
at de lokale myndigheder ikke har truffet nogen foranstaltninger for at undgå, at disse fødevarer bliver indtaget, —
no measures have been taken by the local authorities to prevent the consumption of these foods; —
at EU-institutionerne skal sikre beskyttelsen af borgernes sundhed, —
the Community institutions are supposed to ensure that citizens' health is protected, and —
at der ligger hele to forbrændingsanlæg i det pågældende område med kun få kilometers afstand imellem sig,
as many as two incinerators are located in the area in question, at a distance of a few kilometres of each other,
1. mener Kommissionen så ikke, at det er nødvendigt at indhente informationer hos de lokale sundhedsmyndigheder for at verificere sammenhængen mellem forureningen af kvæget og forbrændingsanlæggenes dioxinemissioner?
1. does the Commission not think it should ask for information from the local health authorities, to check the relationship between the contamination of the cattle and the dioxin emissions from the incinerators?
Mener Kommissionen ikke, at det er nødvendigt at sørge for, at de lokale myndigheder griber ind for at undgå indtagelsen af de forurenede fødevarer og beskytte borgernes sundhed?
Does the Commission not also think it should ensure that the local authorities take action to prevent the contaminated food from being consumed, in order to protect citizens' health?
Mener Kommissionen desuden ikke, at de CIP 6-incitamenter, som den italienske regering giver til forbrændingsvarmeanlæg — hvilket er i strid med EU-lovgivningen — har ført til det unormale forhold, at der ligger hele to forbrændingsanlæg inden for et begrænset område, hvilket kunne være årsag til forureningen?
Does the Commission not consider that the CIP 6 incentives, which the Italian Government grants to waste-to-energy plants — in breach of EU legislation — have resulted in this abnormal concentration of two incinerators in a small area and that this fact could be the reason for the contamination?

Last year the European Parliament adopted a written declaration on ending street homelessness ( P6_TA(2008)0163 ), which called on the Council to ‘to agree on an EU‑wide commitment to end street homelessness by 2015’.
Hvilke fremskridt er der sket?
What progress has been made in taking action?
Rådet deler det ærede parlamentsmedlems bekymringer med hensyn til behovet for at bekæmpe hjemløshed, som udgør en yderst alvorlig form for udstødelse.
The Council shares the Honourable Member's concerns about the need to tackle homelessness, which represents an extremely serious form of exclusion.
Samtidig med at medlemsstaternes kompetence på dette område respekteres fuldt ud, er der på fællesskabsplan indført en åben koordinationsmetode for at nå de fælles mål vedrørende social beskyttelse og social inklusion, som er fastsat i Lissabondagsordenen.
While fully respecting the competence of Member States in this area, an Open Method of Coordination is in place at Community level to achieve common social protection and social inclusion objectives set out by the Lisbon agenda.
I den fælles rapport om social beskyttelse og social inklusion, som blev vedtaget af Rådet i februar 2009, tages medlemsstaternes forskellige tilgange til at afhjælpe hjemløshed op til overvejelse.
The Joint Report on Social Protection and Social Inclusion, which was adopted by the Council in February 2009, considers the different approaches of the Member States in addressing homelessness.
Disse tilgange er meget forskellige: i nogle medlemsstater er der iværksat flerstrengede strategier for specifikt at afhjælpe forskellige former for hjemløshed, mens andre medlemsstater fokuserer på at øge udbuddet af tjenester og boligstøtte.
Such approaches vary greatly, given that in some Member States multidimensional strategies are in place to address different manifestations of homelessness specifically and other Member States focus on increasing the provision of services and housing support.
Manglen på pålidelige oplysninger hæmmer stadig bestræbelserne på at fastlægge og overvåge effektive politikker.
