Om: Særlige sociale ydelser
Subject: Special social benefits
I det italienske lovdekret 109/1998 er der fastlagt et samlet sæt kriterier, der indebærer, at der ved vurderingen af den økonomiske situation, som en ansøger om særlig social bistand, befinder sig i, skal tages udgangspunkt i den pågældendes familiesituation (artikel 2).
Italian Legislative Decree 109/1998 laid down a single set of criteria establishing the family unit as a reference for the purposes of assessing the financial situation of a person applying for special social benefits (Article 2).
Af lovdekretet fremgår det desuden (artikel 3, stk. 2), at der i forbindelse med visse ydelser kan tages udgangspunkt i en anden familiesituation end den, der fremgår af folkeregistret.
It also established (Article 3, paragraph 2) that, in the case of certain benefits, the reference may be a family unit different from that shown in the central register.
Denne mulighed er blevet yderligere præciseret i lovdekret 130/­2000, som fastsætter, at for personer med særligt behov, som modtager social- og sundhedsydelser dagligt og helt eller delvis i tilknytning til deres bopæl, tager den samfundsøkonomiske vurdering alene udgangspunkt i modtagerens forhold og ikke i familiens (indførelse af princippet om individuel indkomst).
Subsequently, Legislative Decree 130/2000 further specified this possibility, stipulating that, in the case of persons in a serious condition receiving health benefits on a day-care, residential or semi-residential basis, the assessment of financial status should refer solely to the beneficiary and not to the family unit (introduction of the principle of individual income).
Den første af disse to retsforskrifter er endnu ikke blevet udstedt og eksisterer stadig kun i form af et udkast, der i februar 2003 blev udarbejdet af Velfærdsministeriets lovkontor (som Sundhedsministeriets lovkontor afgav en positiv udtalelse om den 6. marts 2003), og som et år senere — i februar 2004 — blev fremsendt til sekretariatet for Den Stående Konference for Forholdet mellem Staten, Regionerne og de Autonome Provinser Trento og Bolzano og Generaldirektoratet for Familie- og Socialpolitik og Beskyttelse af Mindretallenes Rettigheder med henblik på opførelsen af udkastet på dagsordenen for Fælleskonferencen.
The first provision has not yet been issued, but is still at the stage of the draft drawn up in February 2003 by the Ministry of Welfare's Legislative Office (approved by the Ministry of Health's Legislative Office on 6 March 2003), which was forwarded one year later — in February 2004 — to the Secretariat of the Standing Conference for relations between the Italian Government, the Regions and the Autonomous Provinces of Trento and Bolzano and to the Directorate-General for Family and Social Policies and the Protection of the Rights of Minors, with a view to the draft provision being entered on the Unified Conference's agenda.
Kan Rådet oplyse, om det er bekendt med denne situation i Italien?
Is the Council aware of this state of affairs in Italy?
Er Rådet klar over nødvendigheden af at få kendskab til virkningerne af anvendelsen af ISE (indikator for økonomisk situation) på nationalt plan?
Is it aware of the need to ascertain the impact of the application of the financial status indicator (ISE) at national level?
Er Rådet klar over, at efterlevelse af det princip, der er indført med lovdekret 130/­2000 i Italien, sandsynligvis vil afstedkomme endnu flere problemer af finansiel art for de lokale myndigheder, og at der især burde lægges vægt på at få fastlagt niveauerne for de sociale ydelser, der er omhandlet i artikel 22 i lov 328/­2000?
Is it also aware that the application of the rule introduced by Legislative Decree 130/2000 in Italy will probably create further financial difficulties for local authorities and that priority should be given to determining essential rates of social benefits, as referred to in Article 22 of Law 328/2000?
Vil Rådet gribe ind for med de midler, det har til sin rådighed, i Italien og Europa at fremme gennemførelsen af en mere hensynsfuld politik inden for området særlige sociale ydelser?
Will the Council take appropriate action to promote, with the resources available to it, the implementation of a more caring policy with regard to special social benefits?

Om: Konvertering til anden religion i Tyrkiet
Subject: Changing religion in Turkey
I »Turkish Daily News« af 22. marts 2005 (»Minister Aksu says number of missionaries in Turkey unknown«) erklærer den tyrkiske indenrigsminister, Aksu, at personer, som konverterer til en anden religion, skal anmelde dette til myndighederne.
The ‘Turkish Daily News’ of 22 March quotes Turkey's Interior Minister, Abdülkadir Aksu, as saying that people who change their religion must report the fact to the authorities (‘Minister Aksu says number of missionaries in Turkey unknown’).
Ministeren oplyser, at 344 personer har konverteret til en anden religion i Tyrkiet i de seneste syv år.
The minister states that in the past seven years 344 people have changed their religion in Turkey.
I 2005 er det stadigvæk påkrævet, at man i Tyrkiet fortsat anmelder sin religion til myndighederne.
In 2005, people in Turkey are still required to register their religion with the authorities.
I Europa derimod betragtes dette sædvanligvis som et privat anliggende.
In Europe, on the other hand, this is generally regarded as a private matter.
Mener Rådet, at sådanne fremgangsmåder er i overensstemmelse med Københavns-kriterierne?
Do such practices accord with the Copenhagen criteria?
Er dette spørgsmål allerede blevet drøftet med de tyrkiske myndigheder?
Has this issue been raised with the Turkish authorities?
I bekræftende fald hvad var konklusionen heraf?
If so, what was the conclusion?
Selv om trosfrihed er sikret i Tyrkiets forfatning, støder religiøse mindretal fortsat på store hindringer Situationsrapport 2004, s. 43. .
Although freedom of religious belief is guaranteed in the Constitution of Turkey, serious obstacles are still encountered by religious minorities Progress Report 2004, p.
Der er behov for at tilvejebringe en række betingelser for eksistensen af ikke-muslimske religiøse samfund, som er i overensstemmelse med artikel 9 i den europæiske menneskerettighedskonvention og med EU-­medlemsstaternes praksis.
Many conditions for the functioning of non-Moslem religious communities which are in line with Article 9 of the ECHR and the practice of EU Member States need to be established.
Det kan nævnes, at Europarådets Europæiske Kommission mod Racisme og Intolerance (ECRI) i sin tredje rapport om Tyrkiet, som blev offentliggjort den 15. februar 2005, fremsatte en række henstillinger.
It could be mentioned that in its third report on Turkey which was made public 15 February 2005, the Council of Europe's European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) has formulated a number of recommendations.
ECRI henstiller navnlig, at de tyrkiske myndigheder hurtigst muligt planlægger og indfører en ordning, der sikrer, at en persons religion ikke længere er anført på vedkommendes identitetskort, og samtidig garanterer rettighederne for personer, der tilhører religiøse minoritetsgrupper omfattet af Lausanne-traktaten.
In particular, ECRI recommended that ‘the Turkish authorities plan and introduce, as soon as possible, a mechanism ensuring that a person's religion is no longer indicated on their identity card, while safeguarding the rights of persons belonging to the minority religious groups covered by the Lausanne Treaty.’
På denne baggrund kan Rådet forsikre det ærede parlamentsmedlem om, at det fortsat vil følge udviklingen i denne sag nøje.
Against this background, the Council can assure the Honourable Parliamentarian that it will continue to closely follow the developments in this matter.

Om: Statsstøtte til SNCF
Subject: State aid to the SNCF
Kommissionen godkendte for nylig en statsstøtte på 1,5 mio. EUR til fragtafdelingen i det franske jernbaneselskab SNCF.
The Commission recently approved the payment of EUR 1.5 billion in state aid to the freight division of the French railway group SNCF.
Denne foranstaltning blev truffet som et led i omstruktureringsplanen for at gøre virksomheden levedygtig på et åbent marked.
This measure was taken as part of the restructuring plan to make the enterprise viable in an open market.
Kommissionen har undersøgt betingelserne og vurderet deres forenelighed med Fællesskabets retningslinjer for støtte til redning og omstrukturering af virksomheder, der er i vanskeligheder.
The Commission has investigated the conditions and assessed their compliance with Community guidelines for rescue and restructuring aid to enterprises in difficulties.
Der er tale om en bemærkelsesværdig afgørelse i betragtning af, at det er første gang, at der ydes direkte statsstøtte til fragtafdelingen i et nationalt jernbaneselskab, og fordi dette kan skabe præcedens i EU.
The decision is remarkable, as this is the first time that explicit state aid has been granted to the freight division of a national railway company, and this could create a precedent within the EU.
Kan Kommissionen bekræfte ovennævnte godkendelse?
Can the Commission confirm that it granted the above approval?
I bekræftende fald på hvilke betingelser tildeler Kommissionen statsstøtte til fragtafdelingen i SNCF?
If so, subject to what conditions is the Commission permitting state aid to the SNCF's freight division?
Hvilket beløb drejer det sig om?
How much state aid is being provided?
Vil dette ikke føre til konkurrenceforvridninger i forhold til andre godstransportører?
Will this not distort competition with other freight carriers?
Er en sådan form for statsstøtte også mulig for andre jernbaneselskaber i EU?
Is state aid of this type also possible for other railway companies within the EU?
Har andre jernbaneselskaber allerede indgivet ansøgning herom?
Have other railway companies applied for it?
Hvor langt er man nået i behandlingen af ansøgninger?
What stage has been reached in processing the applications?
Betyder denne afgørelse, at Kommissionen indtager eller vil indtage en mere tolerant holdning med hensyn til vedvarende subventioner til offentlig person- eller godstransport i fremtiden?
Does this decision imply that the Commission has decided to adopt a more tolerant attitude towards the continuation of subsidies for public transport of passengers or freight in future?

Om: Pressefriheden i Tyrkiet
Subject: Freedom of the press in Turkey
Kommissionen meddelte i sin situationsrapport for 2004 om Tyrkiet, at der i forbindelse med pressefriheden er sket betydelige fremskridt i Tyrkiet.
In its 2004 regular report on Turkey's progress towards accession, the Commission states that considerable progress has been made with regard to freedom of the press in Turkey.
Således betragtes den nye medialov, der vedtoges i juni 2004, som et stort skridt for pressefriheden, og det kan konstateres, at fængselsstraffe for størstedelens vedkommende er blevet erstattet af bøder (situationsrapport for 2004 om Tyrkiet, s. 38-­39).
The new Press Law of June 2004 is described as a significant step towards increasing press freedom and it is observed that imprisonment has largely been replaced by fines (2004 progress report on Turkey, pp. 38‑39).
Ifølge Orhan Birgit, medlem af det tyrkiske medieråd, er de fængselsstraffe, som tidligere var medtaget i medialoven, ganske enkelt blevet indarbejdet i straffeloven.
According to Mr Orhan Birgit, a member of the Turkish Press Council, the terms of imprisonment previously provided for in the Press Law have simply been incorporated into the criminal code.
Den 17. marts 2005 skulle mere end 500 journalister have demonstreret foran retsbygningen i Istanbul mod den manglende pressefrihed i Tyrkiet (Turkish journalists condemn new laws, The Guardian, 22. marts 2005).
On 17 March 2005, more than 500 journalists are said to have demonstrated outside the court building in Istanbul about the lack of press freedom in Turkey (Turkish journalists condemn new laws, The Guardian , 22 March 2005).
De følgende nye bestemmelser er tilsyneladende blevet indarbejdet i straffeloven: udbredelse af »usædelige« billeder, ord og skrifter vil kunne straffes med fængsel i mellem seks måneder og tre år, for falske beskyldninger idømmes der en straf på mellem et og fire år (de tyrkiske journalister henviser i denne forbindelse til, at man nu af kun kan skrive om en korruptionsskandale, hvis man råder over uigendrivelige beviser), og »anstiftelse til krig mod staten« kan straffes med 20 års fængsel.
The following new provisions have apparently been incorporated into the criminal code: the penalty for distributing ‘obscene’ pictures, words and writings is imprisonment for six months to three years, the penalty for making a false accusation is imprisonment for one to four years (the Turkish journalists point out that from now on it will only be possible to write about a corruption scandal if one has irrefutable evidence) and the penalty for ‘incitement to war against the State’ is imprisonment for 20 years.
Disse bestemmelser skulle træde i kraft den 1. april 2005.
These provisions are, it seems, to enter into force on 1 April 2005.
De tyrkiske journalister henviser til, at disse bestemmelser er meget smidige, og at domstolenes anvendelse heraf er meget usikker.
The Turkish journalists say that these provisions are very elastic and that it is very uncertain how the courts will apply them.
Generelt bør man se disse bestemmelser som en del af et generelt fjendtligt politisk klima, hvor den tyrkiske regering og den tyrkiske premierminister Erdogan permanent stiller medierne i et dårligt lys (Jan Keetman, Meinungsfreiheit in Gefahr — Strafgesetz mit Fallstricken für Journalisten, Luxembourger Wort, 15. marts 2005).
In general, these provisions need to be seen against the background of a generally hostile political climate, in which the Turkish Government and Prime Minister Erdogan are constantly depicting the media adversely (Jan Keetman, Meinungsfreiheit in Gefahr — Strafgesetz mit Fallstricken für Journalisten [Freedom of opinion in danger — criminal law sets traps for journalists], Luxemburger Wort , 15 March 2005).
Har Kommissionen kendskab til disse bestemmelser?
Is the Commission aware of these provisions?
Hvorledes vurderer Kommissionen disse bestemmelser på baggrund af pressefriheden?
What is the Commission's assessment of these provisions in the light of the principle of freedom of the press?
Er der tale om en struktureret dialog mellem det tyrkiske medieråd og Kommissionen?
Does a structured dialogue exist between the Turkish Press Council and the Commission?

Om: Immuniteten for medarbejdere i EU-agenturer
Subject: Immunity of staff of EU agencies
Kommissionen skulle have anmodet EU's medlemsstater om at give visse medarbejdere i de såkaldte EU-­agenturer en vis form for immunitet i de medlemsstater, hvor disse agenturer har sæde.
The Commission is said to have asked the EU Member States to grant certain members of staff of the EU agencies a certain form of immunity in the Member States where they are based.
De forskellige EU-­agenturer blev oprettet med henblik på at varetage visse særlige tekniske funktioner.
The various EU agencies were set up to perform certain specific technical functions.
Sammensætningen af bestyrelsen er for hvert agentur fastlagt i afgørelsen om dets oprettelse.
The composition of the governing board is laid down for each agency in its founding regulation.
Ud over delegerede fra EU-­medlemsstaterne og Kommissionen består bestyrelsen i visse tilfælde også af medlemmer af Europa-Parlamentet og repræsentanter for arbejdsgiver- og arbejdstagerorganisationer.
Besides delegates from the EU Member States and the Commission, in some cases Members of the European Parliament and representatives of employers' and employees' organisations also sit on the Board.
Antallet af delegerede fra medlemsstaterne er dog altid større end antallet af repræsentanter for selve EU (Groenleen, Van der Giesen, Van Willegem en Zwijnenberg, De autonomie van EU-­agentschappen: verschillen in ontwikkeling, onderzoeksrapport, Universiteit Leiden, februar 2005, s. 7-­8).
However, the number of delegates from the Member States always exceeds the number of representatives of the EU itself (Groenleen, Van der Giesen, Van Willegem and Zwijnenberg, De autonomie van EU-agentschappen: verschillen in ontwikkeling [The autonomy of EU agencies: differences in development], research report, University of Leiden, February 2005, pp. 7‑8).

Om: Folkemordet på armenierne
Subject: Armenian genocide
Ifølge det nederlandske dagblad »de Volkskrant« skulle den kendte tyrkiske forfatter Orhan Pamuk i februar 2005 være blevet anklaget på grund af sine udtalelser om »mordet på 30000 kurdere og en million armenier, som ingen i Tyrkiet vover at tale om« (Charlotte Huisman: Turkse zorg over spierballenvertoon EU, de Volkskrant, 18. marts 2005).
According to the Dutch newspaper de Volkskrant , the well-known Turkish writer Orhan Pamuk was prosecuted in February 2005 for his statements about ‘the murder of 30000 Kurds and 1 million Armenians, which no one in Turkey dares to mention’ (Charlotte Huisman, Turkse zorg over spierballenvertoon EU [Turks worried by EU flexing its muscles], de Volkskrant , 18 March 2005).
Den 24. april 2005 er det 90-­årsdagen for folkemordet.
24 April 2005 will be the 90th anniversary of the genocide.
Eli Wiesel kaldte folkemordet på armenierne for »holocaust før holocaust«.
Eli Wiesel has called the Armenian genocide ‘the holocaust before the holocaust’.
For nylig udkom det omfattende værk »Porträt einer Hoffnung« (Berlin, Hans Schiler Verlag), som den kendte historiker Huberta von Voss har redigeret.
Recently the extensive work ‘Porträt einer Hoffnung’ (Berlin, Verlag Hans Schiler), edited by the well-known historian Huberta von Voss, has been published.
Huberta von Voss beviser ved hjælp af uigendrivelige kendsgerninger, at der i begyndelsen af det 20. århundrede rent faktisk var tale om et folkemord.
Huberta von Voss adduces irrefutable evidence that a real genocide was carried out in the early 20th century.
Hun henviser endvidere til, at det nederlandske parlament i december 2004 vedtog en særlig beslutning om Armenien som reaktion på, at dette spørgsmål ikke var blevet taget op af det »officielle Europa« (Erdogan urges Debré to drop genocide allegations, New Europa, 13.-19. februar 2005).
She also mentions that in December 2004 the Netherlands Parliament adopted a resolution specifically about Armenia in response to the failure of ‘official Europe’ to tackle this issue (Erdogan urges Debré to drop genocide allegations, New Europe, 13‑19 February 2005).
