Om: Mindesmærke i Tallinn for Estlands SS-division
Subject: Monument to Estonian SS division in Tallinn
Den 15.10.2005 blev der i den estiske hovedstad Tallinn på initiativ af estiske sammenslutninger af kollaboratører indviet et mindesmærke for den nazistiske værnemagts kollaboratører og SS.
On 15 October 2005, at the initiative of Estonian collaborators’ associations, a monument was formally dedicated in the Estonian capital Tallinn to the memory of collaborators with the Nazi army and SS.
Mindesmærket i form af en bronzestatue af en estisk SS-soldat med jernkors og en MP-40 har tidligere været opstillet to gange, men er blevet fjernet igen efter nationale og internationale protester.
The monument, a bronze statue of an Estonian member of the SS wearing the Iron Cross and holding an MP‑40, had already been set up twice before, but had been taken down again following national and international protests.
Denne gentagne indvielse af et sådant mindesmærke i en EU-medlemsstat krænker i eklatant grad den strengt antifascistiske grundholdning i Den Europæiske Union og dennes medlemsstater og skader Unionens anseelse i verden.
The re-dedication of such a monument in an EU Member State is a blatant violation of the fundamental anti-Fascist consensus underpinning the European Union and its Member States, and harms the EU’s reputation in the world.
Er Kommissionen bekendt med indvielsen af dette mindesmærke?
Is the Commission aware of the dedication of this monument?
Hvad vil Kommissionen gøre som reaktion på denne bagatellisering af nationalsocialismen?
In what way does the Commission propose to react to this event, which seeks to play down the evils of National Socialism?

I Grækenland er hundredvis af centre for ydelse af plejetjenester for ældre samt hjemmehjælp for ældre og personer med særlige behov i fare for at måtte lukke inden udgangen af 2005, fordi kommunerne mangler de nødvendige midler.
Hundreds of centres in Greece providing care for the elderly and social services in the home, to the elderly and the disabled, are under threat of closure by the end of 2005 owing to local authorities' lack of resources.
Fra slutningen af 2005 vil der ikke længere være mulighed for at finansiere disse centre fra den tredje fællesskabsstøtteramme med det resultat, at kun de økonomisk stærke kommuner vil være i stand til at opretholde denne service.
In particular, at the end of 2005, there will no longer be the possibility of funding from the third Community support framework for these centres, leaving only local authorities in a strong financial position capable of continuing to operate them.
Er Kommissionen bekendt med dette alvorlige sociale problem? —

Om: Den maltesiske regerings ansvar for endnu en katastrofe på havet
Subject: Responsibility of the Maltese Government in yet another tragedy at sea
Resultatet af den seneste tragedie i Middelhavet, der udspillede sig sidste fredag ud for den sicilianske kyst ved Ragusa, er ni døde og tyve forsvundne personer.
Nine people are dead and twenty are missing following the most recent tragedy in the Mediterranean, which occurred last Friday off the coast near Ragusa (Sicily).
Den nedslidte pram, migranterne sejlede med, var aftenen før blevet opsnappet af de maltesiske patruljebåde ud for øen Gozo.
The ‘floating wreck’ on which the migrants were travelling had been intercepted the previous evening by Maltese patrol boats off the island of Gozo.
De maltesiske myndigheder havde imidlertid ladet prammen sejle videre til trods for det oprørte hav og den skæbne, der uvægerligt ventede migranterne under de herskende vejrforhold.
However, the Maltese authorities allowed the vessel to proceed, despite the stormy conditions and the obvious fate which would await the migrants in such weather.
Malta er det eneste lande, der ligger på den rute, de illegale migranter følger for at komme til Sicilien, og den hårde linje, som regeringen i La Valletta følger, skaber en hel del usikkerhed.
Malta is the only country situated on the route followed by illegal immigrants on their way to Sicily and the hard line taken by the government in La Valletta causes a few eyebrows to be raised.
De seneste uger har den maltesiske regering under premierminister Lawrence Gonzis ledelse således besluttet at igangsætte en række tvangsrepratrieringer af migranter for at hjælpe på den katastrofale situation.
In recent weeks the Maltese Government (led by the Prime Minister, Lawrence Gonzi) has tackled the emergency by launching a series of compulsory repatriations.
Synes Kommissionen, at pligten til at hjælpe et skib i havsnød standser ved et lands egne territorialfarvandes formelle grænser, således at der med bureaukratisk spidsfindighed skabes forudsætninger for endnu en (undgåelig) tragedie på havet som den seneste i en lang række?
Does the Commission not think that the duty to assist a vessel which is in difficulty cannot cease at the formal boundary of a country's territorial waters and that yet another (in this case avoidable) tragedy at sea should not have happened merely on account of a bureaucratic quibble?
Mener Kommissionen ikke, at den bør skabe klarhed og seriøst undersøge de maltesiske myndigheders adfærd under denne episode og mere generelt undersøge de utallige og undgåelige tragedier, der hver uge foregår i Middelhavet?
Lastly, does the Commission not think that it should elucidate the matter by means of a proper investigation into the behaviour of the Maltese authorities in this instance and — more generally — into the countless avoidable tragedies which occur each week in the Mediterranean?

Om: Pensioner på tværs af grænserne
Subject: Cross-country pensions
I de fleste lande er indkomstbaserede pensionsordninger således udformet, at ældre mennesker hjælpes til at opretholde en rimelig levestandard.
In most countries, earnings-related pension arrangements are designed to help older people maintain a reasonable standard of living.
I OECD-landene svarer pensionen til 57 % af indkomsten før pensioneringen.
Replacement rate of earnings by a pension in OECD countries is 57 % of pre-retirement earnings.
Denne procentsats kan være meget forskellig fra land til land.
This varies substantially between countries.
F.eks. i Luxembourg ligger den på 102 %.
For example, Luxembourg has a replacement rate of 102 %.
Østrig, Ungarn, Italien og Spanien har en procentsats på 75 %.
Austria, Hungary, Italy and Spain have a 75 % replacement rate.
Rundt omkring i Europa vender mange ældre borgere tilbage til deres hjemland efter at have tilbragt størstedelen af deres erhvervsaktive liv i en anden EU-­medlemsstat.
Across Europe, many senior citizens are returning to their home countries having spent most of their working lives in another EU Member State.
I de enkelte medlemsstater er pensionerne ikke blot fastsat til forskellige procentsatser, der knytter sig også forskellige ydelser til dem.
The pensions in each Member State are not only set at different rates, but they also have different benefits attached to them.
Situationen i Irland er nu den, at mange ældre irske borgere og personer fra andre medlemsstater, der ønsker at leve som pensionister i Irland, vender tilbage til landet og opdager, at den pension, de modtager fra det land, hvor de tilbragte deres erhvervsaktive liv, ikke anerkendes som pension, men betragtes som en ydelse.
Ireland is experiencing a situation where many older Irish citizens, and people from other Member States who wish to spend their retirement in Ireland, are returning to Ireland to find that the pension they are receiving from the country where they spent their working lives is not recognised as a pension, but rather a benefit.
Derfor vil ydelser, som normalt er knyttet til en pension, såsom tilskud til fyringsolie, elektricitet og telefon, ikke være knyttet til deres pension.
As such, the benefits which normally attach to a pension, such as free fuel allowance, electricity and telephone will not attach to their pension.
Pensionernes forskellige procentsatser i Europa betyder, at pensionen er højere, når en EU-­borger trækker sig tilbage til en anden medlemsstat, hvilket specielt er tilfældet i Irland, hvor pensionens procentsats er meget lavere end i andre europæiske lande.
The difference in the replacement rates across Europe means that when an EU citizen retires to another Member State, their pension is higher, which is particularly the case in Ireland where its replacement rate is much lower than other European countries.
Disse europæiske borgere opdager, at deres pension gør, at de kommer til at ligge over grænsen for trængende og dermed ikke er berettiget til pensionsydelser.
These European citizens find that their pension brings them over the means-test threshold and they cannot receive retirement benefits.
Agter Kommissionen i betragtning af, hvilke EU-­regler der i øjeblikket gælder for pensioner i alle EU-­medlemsstater, at tage spørgsmålet op om de ydelser, der er knyttet til pensioner i hver enkelt medlemsstat, eller at fremsætte forslag, der sikrer, at den enkelte EU-borger kommer til at modtage samme ydelser som borgerne i det land, vedkommende har valgt at bo i, uanset hvor stor en pension der modtages fra det land, denne EU-­borger er kommet fra, således at dennes situation forbedres?
In terms of the EC regulations which currently govern pensions in all EU Member States, does the Commission intend to address the issue of the benefits which attach to pensions in each Member State, or to have proposals in place to ensure that each EU citizen enjoys the same benefits as the citizens of the country they have decided to reside in, regardless of the amount of the pension they receive from the country from which they have come, thereby improving their status?

Om: D for demokrati — T for transparens
Subject: D for Democracy — T for Transparency
Ifølge en artikel i »Malta Today« fra den 20. november 2005 har Kommissionen tildelt en kontrakt på 565000 EUR til det regerende kristelig-demokratiske parti i Maltas medieagentur (Media Link Communications) om levering af et dagligt nyhedsbrev til Kommissionens Repræsentation i Malta.
According to a report in Malta Today of 20 November 2005, the European Commission has awarded a EUR 565000 contract to the media agency of the governing Christian Democratic Party in Malta (Media Link Communications) to provide a daily press review to the European Commission Representation in Malta.
Maltas vicepremierminister Tonio Borg er, så vidt jeg ved, både indehaver af navneaktier og direktør i selskabet Media Link.
The Malta Deputy Prime Minister Tonio Borg is to the best of my knowledge both a nominal shareholder and a director of the Media Link company.
Kommissær Wallströms talsmand Mikolaj Dowgielewicz skal som svar på spørgsmålene fra Malta Today have udtalt følgende: »Det forhold, at tilbudsgiveren var ejet af et politisk parti, blev ikke anset for at indebære en interessekonflikt som beskrevet i udbudsmaterialet«.
Commissioner Wallström’s spokesperson Mikolaj Dowgielewicz was reported to answer the Malta Today queries by saying: ‘The fact that a tenderer was owned by a political party was not considered to be a situation of conflict of interests as defined in the tender specifications’.
Mener Kommissionen ikke på den baggrund, at tildeling af en sådan kontrakt til et politisk partis (i det konkrete tilfælde et regeringspartis) nyhedsagentur underminerer hele ånden bag Plan D for demokrati og er helt i strid med de europæiske borgeres ønske om dialog på lige fod?
In view of all this, does not the Commission believe that the award of such a contract to the news agency of a political party (in this case a government party) undermines the whole spirit of Plan D for Democracy, and indeed goes very much against the European citizens’ plea for dialogue on an equal footing?

Subject: Complaints by VMM, 4FM, Q-music, Topradio and Radio Contact about VRT
Den 14. juli 2004 indgav Vlaamse Media Maatschappij (VMM) en klage til Kommissionen om tildeling af uretmæssig statsstøtte til den offentlige flamske radio- og fjernsynssendevirksomhed »Vlaamse Radio en Televisie« (VRT).
On 14 July 2004, the Flemish Media Company (VMMa) submitted a complaint to the Commission concerning the granting of unlawful State aid to the public broadcaster Flemish Radio and Television (VRT).
Forinden havde de private radiosendere 4 FM og Q-music og radionettene Topradio og Radio Contact den 30. juni indgivet en klage mod VRT.
Previously, on 30 June 2004, the private radio broadcasters 4FM and Q-music and the networks Topradio and Radio Contact had submitted a complaint about VRT.
De hævder, at den offentlige radio- og fjernsynsvirksomhed som følge af den alt for store statsstøtte sælger reklamesendetid til dumpingpriser.
They claim that the public broadcaster is selling advertising time at dumping prices, which it is able to do thanks to the highly excessive State aid which it receives.
Derved fortrænger VRT efter klagernes opfattelse de private sendere fra markedet.
In this way, they allege, VRT is forcing private broadcasters out of the market.

Om: Projekt om opførelse af en havn i Granadilla
Subject: Planned construction of the port of Granadilla
I forbindelse med klagesag nr. 2002/5081 (som indeholder samtlige registrerede klager og senere modtaget dokumentation) om projektet om opførelse af en havn i Granadilla på Tenerife og på baggrund af indholdet i en skrivelse, som generaldirektøren i Kommissionens GD Miljø den 17. oktober stilede til Spaniens permanente repræsentation ved Den Europæiske Union, hvori det hedder, at der i generaldirektoratet hersker fuldstændig overbevisning om, at der ikke findes alternativer til projektet om opførelse af en havn i Granadilla, skal følgende fremføres:
The Commission has opened a file relating to complaint 2002/5081 (bringing together all the subsequent complaints recorded and further documentation received) on the planned construction of the port of Granadilla on the island of Tenerife.
Det er blevet påpeget, at der findes muligheder for større udvidelser af havnen i Santa Cruz.
7 . ), since the Commission's Environment DG has explicitly recognised that the project affects the SICs Sebadales del Sur de Tenerife and Montaña Roja (which contains a priority habitat), as well as priority species listed in the Habitats Directive such as the loggerhead turtle ( Caretta caretta ).
Dette er der blevet gjort offentligt rede for af de tre tidligere formænd for havnemyndigheden den 2. november 2005 (ved denne lejlighed blev det desuden fastslået, at den spanske regering ligger inde med tilsvarende projekter for den nordlige mole i havnen i Santa Cruz).
There are other possibilities in terms of the large-scale expansion of the port of Santa Cruz, as publicly presented by the three previous presidents of the port authority in November 2005 (when they also stated that projects similar to the northern dock of the port of Santa Cruz are in the hands of the Spanish Government).
Der skal i undersøgelsen af alternative muligheder tages hensyn til alternativer på andre lokaliteter på øens kyst og alternativet bestående i en ændring af projektet på selve lokaliteten (ud over udvidelserne af de bestående infrastrukturer som Santa Cruz), som helt eller delvis ville kunne mindske indvirkningen på de områder og arter (form og/eller placering), der er beskyttet på EU-­niveau.
In addition to the expansion of existing infrastructure such as Santa Cruz, the analysis of alternatives must further consider the alternatives offered by other locations on the island's coast and possible changes to the form or location of the existing project which might fully or partially mitigate its impact on sites and species protected at European Union level.
Disse alternativer findes allerede, og Kommissionen bedes derfor besvare følgende spørgsmål:
Such alternatives also exist.
Vil Kommissionens kommissærkollegium i nær fremtid give tilladelse til et projekt som det vedrørende havnen i Granadilla, når der findes mere rentable alternativer, der ikke har nogen indvirkning på direktivet om beskyttelse af naturtyper?
Will the College of Commissioners shortly authorise a project such as the port of Granadilla when there are alternatives which are more economically viable and have no impact on the Habitats Directive?
Hvorfor har Kommissionen ikke foretaget en evaluering af de alternative projekter, som allerede findes?
Why has the Commission not assessed the alternative projects available?
