I lyset af denne konstatering angav Kommissionen i sit svar på Parlamentets forespørgsel P‑0250/2010, at flere direktiver havde til formål at bringe denne praksis til ophør.
Given this state of affairs, in its answer to parliamentary Question P‑0250/2010, the Commission said that several directives were already in place to put an end to these practices.
Eftersom disse direktiver var vedtaget forud for undersøgelsen i 2009, lå problemet i gennemførelsen af dem.
As these directives date from before the 2009 study, the problem lies in their application.
Kommissionen anførte ligeledes i sit svar, at den planlagde en workshop med de nationale myndigheder med ansvar for kontrollen af gennemførelsen af den nationale gennemførelseslovgivning for disse direktiver, og at den ville udarbejde en rapport om anvendelsen af direktivet fra 2005 om urimelig handelspraksis i juni 2011.
The Commission also stated in its answer that it would organise a workshop with the national authorities responsible for monitoring the application of national laws implementing the directives, and draw up a report in June 2011 on the application of Directive 2005/29/EC concerning unfair commercial practices.
Har man iværksat disse initiativer, og med hvilke resultater?
Have these initiatives been completed successfully and what are the results?
Hvis situationen for forbrugerne ikke bliver bedre, vil Kommissionen da iværksætte nye initiativer for at afhjælpe problemerne med uigennemsigtige oplysninger og sikre effektiv konkurrence på markedet for finansielle tjenesteydelser i detailledet?
If the situation for consumers has not improved, does the Commission intend to launch new initiatives to ensure that information is clearer in the future and that competition on the retail financial services market functions properly?
Hvad mener den om tanken om at oprette en uafhængig, flersproget webside i lighed med siden om mobiltelefoni, hvor man kan give de europæiske forbrugere præcise oplysninger ved at offentliggøre let sammenlignelige prisoplysninger for de vigtigste finansielle tjenesteydelser i detailledet i alle EU's medlemsstater?
Does it support the creation of an independent, multilingual website, along the lines of the one launched for mobile phone services, which would provide clear information to European consumers by making the prices of the main retail financial services in all EU Member States available to the public and easily comparable?

Om: Afkald på et lovgivningsinitiativ om adgangen til en grundkonto til betaling for alle
Subject: Abandonment of proposed legislation regarding access to a basic payment account for all
Selv om Kommissionen ved flere lejligheder har bekræftet nødvendigheden af at have adgang til betalingstjenester og sin ambition om at fremlægge et lovgivningsinitiativ om en almindelig ret til adgang til en grundkonto til betaling, har den for nylig trukket i land og meddelt, at den kun vil fremsætte en henstilling til medlemsstaterne.
Despite repeated references by the Commission to the need for access to payment services and its intention to propose legislation on the universal right to access to a basic payment account, it has recently retreated on this matter, announcing that it would do nothing more than issue a recommendation to the Member States.
I øjeblikket har omkring 30 mio. voksne europæere ingen bankkonto.
Currently, around 30 million European adults do not have a bank account.
Dette fører til forskelle — som Kommissionen understreger — såsom manglende mulighed for at foretage onlinebetalinger, begrænset udvalg af varer og tjenester og problemer med at finde et arbejde og modtage sin løn.
This creates a number of difficulties, as pointed out by the Commission, preventing them from making online payments and restricting their choice of goods and services, as well as making it difficult for them to find employment or be paid a wage.
At give alle adgang til en betalingskonto er helt klart en central foranstaltning med henblik på at bekæmpe social udstødelse gennem økonomisk integration.
Providing access to a payment account for all is clearly a landmark measure in combating social exclusion through financial inclusion.
Men i Kommissionens henstilling har man tilsyneladende ikke medtaget adgang til lån, og man taler om adgang til grundlæggende banktjenester til »en rimelig pris«.
However, on the one hand, the Commission recommendation does not appear to include access to credit while, on the other, it refers to the availability of basic banking services at a ‘reasonable cost’.
Desuden er den i sagens natur ikke bindende.
Furthermore, it is, by its very nature, non-binding.
Hvilke initiativer har Kommissionen til hensigt at tage for at sikre effektiv adgang til en grundkonto til betaling for de EU‑borgere, der ikke har en sådan?
What measures will the Commission take to provide effective access to a basic payment account for citizens of the European Union who do not have one?
Mener Kommissionen ikke, at det i en tid med økonomisk krise, hvor man forsøger at skabe vækst, vil være hensigtsmæssigt med et forslag til retsakt om adgang til kredit og gratis adgang til grundlæggende banktjenester?
In view of the economic crisis and attempts to stimulate growth, does it not consider that a legislative proposal for access to credit and free basic banking services would be appropriate?
Kan den anføre baggrunden for sine valg og de vurderinger, der ligger til grund for, at den undlader at fremsætte et lovgivningsinitiativ af central betydning?
Can it state the reasoning behind its decision to abandon a landmark legislative initiative?
Hvis man ender med at vælge en henstilling, hvornår påregner Kommissionen da at undersøge, hvorvidt medlemsstaterne følger henstillingen, og eventuelt revidere sin holdning til et eventuelt lovgivningsinitiativ?
If it is finally decided to issue a recommendation, when does the Commission intend to establish whether the Member States have complied with it and possibly review its position regarding a legislative initiative?

Om: Moldovisk lovforslag om ikkeforskelsbehandling
Subject: Moldova's draft anti-discrimination law
Den 16. december 2010 vedtog Rådet Kommissionens handlingsplan for visumliberalisering for Republikken Moldova.
On 16 December 2010 the Council approved the Commission’s action plan on visa liberalisation with the Republic of Moldova.
Kommissionen forelagde handlingsplanen for Moldova i januar 2011.
In January 2011 the Commission presented the action plan to the Moldovan authorities.
Som følge heraf opfordrer afsnit 2.4.1 i handlingsplanen for visumliberalisering til en revision af den eksisterende lovgivning med henblik på at undgå hindringer for personers frie bevægelighed på grund af et stort antal former for forskelsbehandling.
Accordingly, paragraph 2.4.1 of the action plan calls for the revision of existing legislation with a view to ensuring that freedom of movement is not subject to restrictions, for example in the form of discriminatory measures of various kinds.
Afsnit 2.4.3 i handlingsplanen for visumliberalisering opfordrer Moldova til at vedtage »omfattende lovgivning om ikkeforskelsbehandling« med henblik på at sikre borgerrettigheder og mindretalsrettigheder.
Paragraph 2.4.3 of the action plan calls on Moldova to adopt ‘comprehensive anti-discrimination legislation’ in order to guarantee citizens’ and minority rights.
I anledning af denne henstilling i handlingsplanen har Moldova udarbejdet lovgivning om ikkeforskelsbehandling på basis af Rådets direktiv 2000/78/EF om generelle rammebestemmelser om ligebehandling med hensyn til beskæftigelse og erhverv og Rådets direktiv 2000/43/EF om gennemførelse af princippet om ligebehandling af alle uanset race eller etnisk oprindelse.
In response to this recommendation contained in the action plan Moldova has drawn up anti-discrimination legislation based on Council Directives 2000/78/EC on equal treatment in employment and occupation and 2000/43/EC on equal treatment between persons irrespective of racial or ethnic origin.
Imidlertid går lovforslaget meget videre end disse to direktiver, eksempelvis ved at medtage et stort antal former for diskrimination, mens bestemte foranstaltninger og undtagelsesklausuler til beskyttelse af samvittighedsfrihed og i forbindelse med religion eller overbevisning, der er medtaget i direktiv 2000/78/EF, udelades.
However, the draft law goes much further than these two directives, for example by incorporating provisions on many different forms of discrimination, whilst omitting certain conditions and derogations set out in Directive 2000/78/EC with the aim of protecting freedom of conscience and the right to hold religious or other beliefs.
I Moldova har interesseorganisationer udtrykt deres bekymring over, at lovforslaget ikke i tilstrækkelig grad indeholder garantier for beskyttelsen af samvittigheds- og ytringsfriheden.
Pressure groups in Moldova have expressed concern that the draft law does not incorporate adequate guarantees regarding protection of freedom of conscience and expression.
EU's repræsentant for Republikken Moldova, Schuebel, er under en pressekonference i forbindelse med dette lovforslag kommet med udtalelser, der lader formode, at Moldova bør vedtage lovforslaget i sin nuværende form for at opnå visumliberalisering.
At a press conference called to discuss the draft law the EU Ambassador to Moldova, Dirk Schuebel, made statements suggesting that Moldova should adopt the draft law in its current form if it wished to see the visa liberalisation rules adopted.
Disse udtalelser falder i tråd med tidligere erklæringer fra en europæisk parlamentariker.
Those statements are consistent with remarks made previously by an MEP.
Er det rimeligt, at Kommissionen forventer, at Moldova vedtager lovgivning om ikkeforskelsbehandling, som går videre end EU‑retten kræver, som betingelse for opnåelse af visumliberalisering?
Is it reasonable for the Commission to expect Moldova to adopt anti-discrimination legislation which goes further than the EU acquis as a precondition for visa liberalisation?

Om: Ubegrænset service for fællesprojektet mellem jernbaneselskaberne ÖBB i Østrig, DB i Tyskland og Le Nord i Italien
Subject: Unrestricted service for the Deutsche Bahn/Österreichische Bundesbahn/Le Nord joint venture in Italy
De italienske jernbanemyndigheder URSF traf den 24. juni 2011 beslutning om at forbyde visse stop på italiensk område for de internationale forbindelser, som DB/ÖBB/Le Nord tilbyder over Brennerpasset.
On 24 June 2011, the Italian rail regulatory authority (URSF) made a decision to prohibit international trains operated by DB/ÖBB/Le Nord via the Brenner Pass from stopping in Italian territory.
De pågældende ændringer i DB Fernverkehr's internationale passagerforbindelser skal så optages i den nye køreplan den 11. december 2011.
As a result, the rescheduled DB international passenger trains would have to be incorporated into the timetable change on 11 December 2011.
Forud for vedtagelsen den 24. juni 2011 blev der på foranledning af de italienske jernbanemyndigheder opnået enighed mellem DB Fernverkehr og Trenitalia om, at de allerede anmeldte stop ganske vist i vidt omfang skulle bibeholdes (med undtagelse af Vincenza på strækningen Verona-Venedig), men at der i fremtiden ikke længere måtte standses mellem Verona og Bologna.
Prior to the decision of 24 June 2011, an agreement had been reached between DB and Trenitalia, at the behest of the Italian regulatory authority, which maintained, more or less entirely, the stops already agreed upon (with the exception of Vincenza on the route between Verona and Venice), but which in future would no longer permit stops between Verona and Bologna.
På foranledning af URSF blev også billetsalget for stop i Padova på strækningen Verona-Venedig og Brescia på strækningen Verona-Milano indskrænket.
At the same time, ticket sales were restricted, at the behest of URSF, for the Padua stop on the route between Verona and Venice and the Brescia stop on the route between Verona and Milan.
Uafhængigt heraf blev der nægtet tilladelse til at holde på Milanos hovedbanegård.
In a separate decision, a stop in Milan central station was refused.
Hvordan vurderer Kommissionen ud fra princippet om fri markedsadgang i den internationale jernbanepassagertransport, at det i fremtiden kun er muligt at tilbyde internationale forbindelser på Brenner-ruten med visse begrænsninger?
In view of the principle of free market access for international rail passenger transport, what is the Commission's stance regarding the fact that international services on the Brenner route will in future only operate with restrictions?
Hvilke foranstaltninger vil Kommissionen i dette tilfælde træffe for at sikre fri markedsadgang i den internationale jernbanepassagertransport?
What steps will the Commission take in this instance to ensure free market access in international rail passenger transport?
Hvordan vurderer Kommissionen forbuddet mod at holde på Milanos hovedbanegård, og hvad vil den gøre, for at det bliver muligt at holde der?
What is the Commission's view of the refusal to allow trains to stop in Milan central station and what action does it intend to take to ensure that trains are permitted to stop there?

Om: Cirkus som en del af Europas kultur
Subject: Circus as part of European culture
Den 13. oktober 2005 vedtog Parlamentet beslutningen P6_TA(2005)0386 om »nye udfordringer for cirkus som en del af Europas kultur«.
On 13 October 2005, Parliament passed Resolution P6_TA(2005)0386 on ‘New challenges for the circus as part of European culture’.
Heri blev Kommissionen og medlemsstaterne opfordret til at træffe foranstaltninger til at anerkende cirkus som en del af Europas kultur, sikre skoleuddannelse og faglig uddannelse i de rejsende samfund, harmonisere standarder og udarbejde europæiske regler for udstedelse af visa og arbejdstilladelser til mobile kunstnere.
The resolution calls upon the Commission and Member States to take measures to ensure that the circus is recognised as part of European culture, to ensure that school education and professional training are provided for travelling communities, to harmonise standards and to draw up a European regulation on visa and work permit issuing systems for peripatetic artists.
Er der i Kommissionen og i de medlemsstater, hvor der stadig er behov for handling, taget konkrete skridt til at anerkende cirkus som en del af Europas kultur?
Have concrete measures been initiated by the Commission, and in Member States where action still needs to be taken, to recognise the circus as part of European culture?
Hvad har Kommissionen gjort med hensyn til kravene om opdragelse, skoleuddannelse og faglig uddannelse for børn, unge og voksne i de rejsende samfund?
What action has the Commission taken in response to calls to provide school education and professional training for children, young people and adults belonging to travelling communities?
Har Kommissionen givet mandat til at udarbejde et omfattende sæt af standarder for mobile cirkusfaciliteter, som det kræves i rapporten, for at lette cirkussernes bevægelighed mellem medlemsstaterne gennem harmonisering?
Has the Commission issued a standardisation mandate for the preparation of a comprehensive set of standards for mobile circus facilities, as called for in the resolution, to facilitate movement of circuses between Member States through harmonisation?
Hvad har Kommissionen gjort inden for visapolitikken med henblik på mobile kunstneres beskæftigelse?

Om: Websted tager betaling for det europæiske sygesikringskort
Subject: Websites charging fees for European Health Insurance Cards
Sidste år tog Det Forenede Kongeriges konkurrencemyndigheder, Office of Fair Trading, sine forholdsregler mod adskillige private websteder, som pålagde forbrugere betaling for at ansøge om et europæisk sygesikringskort, en service der er gratis hos den offentlige sygesikring NHS.
Last year, the UK's Office of Fair Trading took action against several privately run websites which charged consumers for applying for a European Health Insurance Card, a service which is free on the NHS.
Nogle af webstederne lukkede, mens andre lovede at stoppe med det vildledende salg af service til forbrugerne.
Some of the websites shut down, whilst others promised to stop deceptively selling services to consumers.
Det ser de imidlertid ikke ud til at have gjort, da jeg for nyligt er blevet kontaktet af vælgere, som blev afkrævet 14,99 engelske pund for at forny deres europæiske sygesikringskort og først senere blev klar over, at denne service faktisk er gratis hos den offentlige sygesikring NHS.
However, they do not seem to have done so, as I have recently been contacted by constituents who were charged GBP 14.99 to renew their EHICs and only later realised that the service was, in fact, free on the NHS.
Er Kommissionen opmærksom på en sådan vildledende salgspraksis, og hvilke forholdsregler, om nogen, kan der tages på EU‑niveau for at sikre, at borgere ikke narres til at betale for noget, som skulle være en gratis service?
Is the Commission aware of such deceptive selling practices and what action, if any, can be taken at EU level to ensure that citizens are not tricked into paying for what is supposed to be a free service?
Vil Kommissionen desuden overveje at tage sine forholdsregler mod websteder, der bruger det europæiske sygesikringskorts akronym i deres domænenavn for at tjene penge på ukyndige forbrugere, når de ikke har nogen officiel forbindelse til programmet?
Furthermore, will the Commission consider taking action against websites that use the ‘EHIC’ acronym in their domain name in order to profit from unwitting customers, when they have no official ties to the programme?

Om: VP/HR — situationen i Ashraflejren
Subject: VP/HR — The situation in Camp Ashraf
Jeg vil gerne henlede Deres opmærksomhed på situationen for 3 400 iranske systemkritikere i Ashraflejren i Irak.
I would like to draw your attention to the plight of 3 400 Iranian opposition dissidents in Camp Ashraf in Iraq.
Som De sikkert ved, angreb irakiske styrker Ashraf den 8. april, hvorved de dræbte 36 forsvarsløse og ubevæbnede beboere.
As you may know, on 8 April Iraqi forces attacked Ashraf, killing 36 defenceless and unarmed residents.
Otte af dem var kvinder, fortrinsvis i aldersgruppen 19‑30 år.
Eight of them were women, mostly between 19 and 30 years old.
Den fortsatte medicinske sanktion mod lejren har allerede kostet to af de mennesker livet, der blev alvorligt såret under massakren den 8. april.
The continuing medical siege of the camp has already led to the death of two of the people who were severely injured during the massacre of 8 April.
Iraks regering insisterer på fristen for lukningen af Ashraflejren i slutningen af 2011.
The Government of Iraq insists on the deadline for the closure of Camp Ashraf by the end of 2011.
De ved sikkert, at Ashrafs beboere har status som »beskyttede personer« i henhold til fjerde Genèvekonvention.
You may know that Ashraf residents have the status of ‘protected persons’ under the Fourth Geneva Convention.
Vil De træffe nogen foranstaltninger med henblik på at redde livet for beboerne i Ashraflejren, herunder 1 000 kvinder?
Are you going to take any action in order to save the lives of residents in Camp Ashraf, including 1 000 women?
Hvilken holdning har Unionens højtstående repræsentant til Europa-Parlamentets plan om at overflytte beboerne i Ashraf til tredjelande?
What is the position of the High Representative on the European Parliament’s plan to transfer the Ashraf residents to third countries?
Er Unionens højtstående repræsentant parat til i mellemtiden at opfordre til oprettelsen af en permanent FN‑beskyttelse eller et overvågningshold i Ashraf for at stoppe en yderligere massakre samt at gøre en indsats for at foranstalte de faciliteter, der er nødvendige for dette hold?
Is the High Representative ready to call, in the interim, for the establishment of a permanent UN protection or monitoring team at Ashraf to stop a further massacre and to make efforts to organise the necessary facilities for this team?

Om: Den græske kultur i Istanbul er ved at forsvinde
Subject: Greek culture vanishing in Istanbul
Det græske samfund i Istanbul, der som bekendt i den første halvdel af det 20. århundrede talte hundredtusinder af borgere, er svundet drastisk ind på grund af forfølgelsen af disse af de tyrkiske myndigheder, og tæller nu godt og vel 3 000 medlemmer.
As is known, persecution by the Turkish authorities drastically reduced the Greek community in Istanbul so that, while it was hundreds of thousands strong in the first half of the 20th century, nowadays it numbers around 3 000.
Siden 1979 har mange græske skoler ikke længere haft nogen tilmeldte studerende, og ikke for ingenting er antallet af fungerende skoler faldet fra 40 til ni.
Since 1979, the number of Greek schools has fallen from 40 to 9 due to students not enrolling in them any more.
I april 2011 blev det bebudet, at tre yderligere skoler snart vil lukke på grund af manglende studerende.
In April 2011, a further three schools announced they would close because of the lack of students.
Disse nyheder understreger, at den tusindårige græske kultur i Istanbul er for alvor i fare for at forsvinde.
This news brings to the fore the real risk that Istanbul’s age-old Greek culture may vanish.
Dette billede bekræftes tilsyneladende af en yderligere nyhed, der kom frem i begyndelsen af juli, vedrørende den forestående lukning af Istanbuls græske dagblad Apoyevmatinì.
The announcement at the beginning of July that Istanbul’s Greek daily paper Apoyevmatinì (first published in 1925) will close down shortly only seems to confirm this impression.
Dagbladets forlag har nemlig meddelt, at det ikke længere er i stand til at trykke dagbladet (som blev grundlagt i 1925) på grund af utilstrækkelige ressourcer som følge af den økonomiske krise.
The paper’s publishers said that, with the economic crisis in Greece, they can no longer afford to continue printing it.
