Om: Borgernes ret til at kontrollere databaser
Subject: Citizens' right to check database
Min vælger bor med sin hustru i East Midlands, som jeg repræsenterer.
My constituent and his wife live in the East Midlands, which I represent.
De forsikrer mig om, at de altid har været lovlydige borgere.
They assure me that they have always been fully law-abiding citizens.
Med henblik på at nyde deres forestående otium har de købt en lejlighed i Schweiz og kører nu i deres bil, som er indregistreret i Det Forenede Kongerige, til og fra denne lejlighed, via Basel gennem Frankrig til deres permanente opholdsadresse i East Midlands.
To enjoy their approaching retirement, they bought an apartment in Switzerland and now drive their car, which is registered in the UK, to and from it, via Basle and through France, to their principal home in the East Midlands.
På disse ture er de nu begyndt at være meget bange, da civile politibetjente tilsyneladende følger efter dem.
On these journeys, they have started to become very apprehensive because plain-clothed policemen seem to be trailing them.
Første gang, det skete, var de bange for, at det var kriminelle, der forfulgte dem.
The first time it happened they became afraid that it was criminals who were pursuing them.
Ved en senere lejlighed i november 2003 blev de standset, og varevognen blev gennemsøgt.
Later, on another occasion in November 2003, they were stopped and the van was searched.
Varevognen var tom med undtagelse af en sort plasticpose, der indeholdt gamle aviser, som de let kunne have smidt i vejkanten, men som de beholdt for at skille sig af med den på behørig vis.
Their van was empty except for a black plastic bag which contained waste newspapers, which they could have easily dumped by the roadside but were keeping to be disposed of responsibly in a proper place.
Det franske politi gav dem en bøde på stedet for at importere husholdningsaffald.
The French police imposed an on-the-spot fine for importing household waste.
Min vælger taler ikke fransk og kunne ikke forstå det franske politis blanket, som de blev anmodet om at underskrive.
My constituents do not speak French and could not understand the police form which they were required to sign.
De skrev efterfølgende en ankeskrivelse til præsident Chirac i Frankrig og modtog en skrivelse fra en af den franske regerings højtstående embedsmænd, der forklarede dem, at begrundelsen var, at der ikke var fri bevægelighed for varer ind og ud af Schweiz, da landet ikke er medlem af Den Europæiske Union.
Afterwards they wrote an appeal letter to President Chirac in Paris, and received a letter from a senior government official explaining that the reason was that there is no free movement of goods into and out of Switzerland, it not belonging to the European Union.
En sort plasticpose med gamle aviser!
A black plastic bag of used newspapers!
Mine vælgere er bange for, at de nu er gemt i det franske politis database, og at deres bil konstant bliver overvåget.
My constituents fear they are now on a French police database, and that their car is permanently being watched.
Hvilke rettigheder har mine vælgere i forhold til at kontrollere det franske politis database og i forhold til at kunne fortsætte deres lovlydige liv i fred og ro uden at blive chikaneret?
What rights do my constituents have to check the French police database, and to be allowed to go about their law-abiding lives peacefully and free from harassment?
Rådet kan ikke tage stilling til individuelle strafferetlige eller administrative sager i med­lems­sta­ter­ne.
The Council cannot take a position regarding individual criminal or administrative cases in the Member States.
Mulighederne for at få adgang til det franske politis databaser eller for at få slettet eller rettet oplysninger er omhandlet i den franske lovgivning.
The possibilities to have access to French police data bases or to have data deleted or corrected, are laid down in French legislation.
Det er ikke Rådets opgave at forklare eller for­tolke disse nationale lovbestemmelser.
It is not for the Council to explain or interpret these national legal provisions.

Om: Støtte til den irske posttjeneste
Subject: Subvention to the Irish Postal Service
Det selskab, der står for den irske posttjeneste, An Post, befinder sig i øjeblikket i en økonomisk krise.
The public company that provides the Irish postal service, An Post, is currently in financial crisis.
De ansatte hos An Post indledte for nylig en faglig aktion på grund af manglende udbetaling af deres lønforhøjelse i henhold til den nationale lønoverenskomst i de seneste tre år.
Industrial action was recently taken by workers in An Post for non-payment of their pay awards under the National Wage Pay Agreement for the past three years.
Vil Kommissionen i lyset heraf give den irske regering mulighed for at yde et mindre støttebeløb til dette selskab, der i øjeblikket oplever en krise, i en periode på tre til fem år, så selskabet igen kan generere et overskud?
Given this, will the European Commission allow the Irish government to provide a small subvention to this company currently in crisis, for a period of three to five years, so that the company can be returned to profitability?

Om: Prisstigning på olie
Subject: Rise in oil prices
De seneste fortløbende prisstigninger på olie har uden tvivl haft en indvirkning på den økonomiske vækst i Europa.
The recent successive rises in oil prices have indisputably had an adverse effect on European growth.
De vedvarende høje priser har i øvrigt stor indvirkning på det negative udbud inden for euroområdet og risikerer at veje tungt i forbindelse med det længe ønskede økonomiske opsving.
Continuing high prices are also having a negative impact on supply in the euro zone and are liable to weigh heavily on the much hoped for economic recovery.
Kan Europa-Kommissionen i denne forbindelse fremlægge en analyse af konsekvenserne for den europæiske økonomi?
Can the European Commission supply, in this connection, a quantified analysis of the consequences for the European economy?

WRITTEN QUESTION E-0634/05
Næsten 100 millioner plagiater blev beslaglagt i 2003 inden for EU (altså en stigning på 9% på et år), og i årets første ni måneder i 2004 er stigningen allerede oppe på 10% i forhold til samme periode i 2003.
Almost 100 million counterfeit goods were impounded in the European Union in 2003 (an increase of 9% in one year), while in the first nine months of 2004 there has again been a 10% increase over the same period in 2003.
Disse tal skal først og fremmest ses i lyset af den stærke stigning i udbuddet af plagiater, som næsten ikke omhandler luksusvarer mere (1% af de beslaglagte varer).
These figures can be explained primarily by the striking increase in the supply of counterfeit goods, which now barely concern luxury goods (1% of seizures).
Til gengæld er beslaglæggelsen af legetøj steget med 996% og beslaglæggelsen af parfumerivarer med 800%!
On the other hand, seizures of toys have increased by 996% and those of perfumes by 800%!
Udvidelsen har påvirket denne udvikling.
The impact of enlargement has not been insignificant either.
I lande som f.eks. Belarus og Ukraine, som mange plagiater føres gennem, er det meget vanskeligt at foretage en kontrol af landevejstrafikken.
In countries such as Belarus and Ukraine, through which many counterfeit goods transit, roadside inspection is one of the most difficult to perform.
Kunne Kommissionen præcisere, i hvilken udstrækning EU's nye landegrænser er medvirkende til en forværring af denne tilstrømning?
Could the Commission therefore specify the extent to which this problem is being exacerbated as a result of the European Union's new land borders?
Ifølge udenrigshandlens tal ses desuden, at 70% af plagiaterne stammer fra Asien, især Kina.
Moreover, according to customs statistics, 70% of counterfeit goods come from Asia, and principally from China.
Har Kommissionen i denne forbindelse til hensigt at underskrive en aftale om et toldsamarbejde med Kina?
In the light of this, does the European Commission plan to conclude customs cooperation agreements with China?

Om: Skind fra torturerede dyr
Subject: Pelts from tortured animals
Den schweiziske dyrebeskyttelsesorganisation har slået alarm vedrørende flåning af levende vaskebjørne i Kina for at producere billige skind.
Swiss Animal Protection has raised the alarm about the skinning alive of racoon dogs and foxes in China to make low-cost furs.
Den har også igangsat en underskriftindsamling med henblik på at begrænse import af sådanne skind.
It has also launched a petition seeking to restrict the import of such pelts.
Mange af de billige skind, der anvendes i Europas beklædningsindustri, kommer fra Kina, hvor hvert ca. 1,5 millioner ræve og et tilsvarende antal vaskebjørne hvert år opdrættes og, efter hvad man kan se på film optaget hemmeligt af kinesiske dyrebeskyttelsesaktivister, bedøves og flås levende, for ikke at beskadige deres skind.
Many of the low-cost furs used in Europe's clothing industry come from China, where every year approximately one and a half million foxes and an equal number of racoon dogs are reared and, from what can be seen from films shot in secret by Chinese animal protection activists, are stunned and skinned alive so as not to damage their furs.
Aktivisterne anklager Kina for at eksportere skind af husdyr som f.eks. hunde og katte foruden skind af ræve og andre vilde dyr.
The activists accuse China of exporting the pelts of domestic animals, such as dogs and cats, in addition to those of foxes and other wild animals.
Andragendet, som opfordrer til et forbud mod import af skind fra husdyr, har 80.000 underskrifter og er allerede blevet indsendt til Forbundsrådet.
The petition, which calls for a ban on imports of pelts from domestic animals, bears 80000 signatures and has already been lodged with the Federal Council.
På baggrund af de brutale metoder, som disse avlere anvender, og de store antal skind fra Kina, der importeres til europæiske lande, bedes Kommissionen besvare følgende spørgsmål: 1.
Given the brutality of the methods used by these breeders and the large number of pelts from China that are imported by European countries, would the Commission not agree that: 1.
Mener Kommissionen, at EU's forbrugere bør gøres bekendt med disse skinds oprindelse? 2.
EU consumers should be made aware of the provenance of these furs? 2.
Bør der tages initiativ til at forhindre import af skind fra Kina?
steps should be taken to prevent furs being imported from China?

Om: Den europæiske socialmodel
Subject: European social model
På mødet den 9. februar 2005 udtalte Kommissionen, at den fuldt og helt gik ind for modernisering og videreudvikling af den europæiske socialmodel, og den vedtog en meddelelse om oprettelse af en ny social agenda (KOM(2005)033; SEK(2005)0177). .
At the meeting of 9 February 2005 the Commission stated that it was fully committed to the modernisation and development of the European social model, and adopted a communication establishing a new Social Agenda COM(2005) 33 final; SEC(2005) 177). .
Det hævdes imidlertid ofte, at anvendelse af den europæiske socialmodel direkte eller indirekte fører til særdeles høje arbejdsløshedstal (som stadig stiger) i de industrialiserede lande.
It is often said, however, that application of the European social model leads directly or indirectly to the highest unemployment levels (which are still rising) among the industrialised countries.
Dette fremgår f.eks. af de seneste tal for Tyskland.
This is borne out by the recent figures for Germany, for example.
Italien, hvor arbejdsløsheden er lavere end EU-gennemsnittet, er en undtagelse.
Italy, where the unemployment level is lower than the EU average, is an exception.
Den politiske debat er for øjeblikket centreret om anvendelsen af Biagi-loven, som kritiseres af oppositionen, men støttes af regeringsflertallet, som ser den som en kilde til nye jobs.
Political debate in Italy is currently focused on the application of the Biagi law, which is criticised by the opposition but supported by the government majority, which sees it as a source of new jobs.
Kan Kommissionen besvare følgende spørgsmål: 1.
Would the Commission state whether: 1.
Har den en mening om dette emne? 2.
it has an opinion on the matter? 2.
Kan den voksende beskæftigelse i Italien eventuelt betyde, at den europæiske socialmodel ikke finder anvendelse? 3.
rising employment levels in Italy might mean that the European social model is not being applied? 3.
Ville det ikke være umagen værd at overveje en ny model i stedet for en ny agenda? 4.
it might be worth thinking about a new model, rather than a new Agenda? 4.
Ville foranstaltninger med henblik på at fremme samhørighed ikke være mere effektive, hvis beskæftigelsestallene stiger?
it would not agree that efforts to promote cohesion will be more effective if employment levels rise?

Subject: Religious persecution
Hvilke foranstaltninger agter Rådet at træffe med hensyn til den religiøse forfølgelse, der stadig foregår i Eritrea?
What measures does the Council plan to take regarding the continued religious persecution taking place in Eritrea?
Nye rapporter viser, at der siden nytår er blevet fængslet 150 kristne, og at arrestationerne tilsyneladende er foregået på en religiøs baggrund, f.eks. for at bede, læse bibelen eller deltage i gudstjeneste.
Recent reports show that 150 Christians have been incarcerated since the New Year and the arrests seem to have been on the basis of religious grounds: for praying, reading the Bible, or meeting for worship.
Arrestationerne er ikke foregået i forbindelse med hverken politiske eller evangeliske aktiviteter.
The arrests have not been in conjunction with any political or evangelical activity.
Rådet overvåger nøje menneskerettighedssituationen i Eritrea, ikke mindst med hensyn til religions­frihed.
The Council is monitoring closely the human rights situation in Eritrea in general and the situation regarding religious freedom in particular.
Inden for den politiske dialog med Eritreas myndigheder har EU's repræsentanter gentagne gange - bl.a. på et møde i dialogen, der specielt vedrørte dette emne - omtalt religionsfrihed og givet udtryk for EU's betænkelighed ved krænkelserne af religionsfriheden og arrestationerne af medlem­merne af forskellige trosretninger.
Within the framework of political dialogue with the Eritrean authorities, EU representatives have brought up the subject of religious freedom on several occasions – including at a dialogue meeting devoted specifically to that subject – and have expressed the EU's concern regarding the infringements of religious freedom and the arrests of members of different faiths.
Dialogen har på dette punkt ikke hidtil fået Eritreas regering til at indgå positive forpligtelser.
The dialogue on that subject has so far failed to persuade the Eritrean Government to give any positive undertakings in this area.
EU er imidlertid fast besluttet på at fortsætte sine bestræbelser og over for Eritreas myndigheder at give udtryk for sin bekymring over religionsfriheden og situationen for personer, der er tilbageholdt på grund af deres religiøse overbevisning.
Nevertheless, the EU remains determined to pursue its efforts and to make the Eritrean authorities aware of its concern regarding religious freedom and the situation of persons incarcerated on the basis of their religious beliefs.
