Om: Emballageforordning — skjult inflation
Subject: Packaging rules and inflation by stealth
Det indre marked skulle skabe lige rettigheder for alle producenter og give de europæiske borgere et større udvalg til lavere priser.
The single market is supposed to put all companies on a level playing field and to give Europeans a wider choice of products at more affordable prices.
Frem til 2009 fandtes der standardiserede emballagestørrelser, så forbrugerne bl.a. lettere kunne foretage direkte sammenligninger.
Until 2009 there were standardised pack sizes, one purpose of which was to help consumers make direct comparisons between products.
Da man til en vis grad havde forskellige standardstørrelser til visse produkter i EU‑landene, og producenterne måtte producere landespecifikke emballager, blev emballageforordningen revideret.
Because, in the case of certain products, the regular pack sizes in some Member States were different, and companies needed to produce country-specific packs, the EU packaging rules were revised.
Siden emballageforordningen er blevet revideret, har producenterne helt frit kunnet bestemme emballagemængderne.
Since the revision, manufacturers have been entirely free to determine per-pack quantities themselves.
Det skulle give den fordel, at man kan markedsføre "usædvanlige emballager til usædvanlige produkter" og i højere grad imødekomme målgruppespecifikke behov (f.eks. singlehusholdninger).
This system is supposed to have the advantages of enabling ‘unusual products’ to be marketed in ‘unusual packs’ and more effectively addressing the needs of specific types of consumer (e.g. people living alone).
I praksis udnytter producenterne de nye friheder til at gøre pakningerne mindre for ikke at skulle gennemføre synlige prisforhøjelser.
In practice, manufacturers are using their new-found freedom to reduce pack sizes as a means of avoiding visible price increases.
Hvad er Kommissionens holdning til problemet med den skjulte inflation som følge af mindre pakninger?
What is the Commission’s stance on the problem of reduced pack sizes as a form of inflation by stealth?

Om: Arbejdstagere fra østlandene
Subject: Workers from Member States in eastern Europe
Den 1. april 2011 udløber den syvårige overgangsperiode for arbejdskraftens frie bevægelighed og fri udveksling af tjenesteydelser i EU for de medlemsstater, der tiltrådte EU den 1. maj 2004, nemlig Estland, Letland, Litauen, Polen, Slovakiet, Slovenien, Tjekkiet og Ungarn.
The seven-year transition period for application of the principle of EU‑wide freedom of movement to workers and services from Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, the Czech Republic and Hungary — which joined the Union on 1 May 2004 — expires on 1 April 2011.
Lønniveauet i de nævnte stater ligger stadig meget langt under niveauet i andre EU‑stater som f.eks. Tyskland eller Østrig.
Wage levels in these countries are still nowhere near those of Member States such as Germany or Austria.
Der er derfor risiko for, at der vil opstå et stærkt konkurrencepres især i de tilgrænsende stater, som kunne føre til en stærkt voksende arbejdsløshed i Tyskland eller Østrig.
So there is a danger of dog-eat-dog competition for jobs, particularly in the countries adjoining the new Member States, and the result could be a steep rise in unemployment in Germany or Austria.
Er der udarbejdet skøn over, hvor mange nye arbejdsløse man må regne med i 2011 og 2012?

Om: Millionbedrageri med skrottede euromønter
Subject: Fraud worth millions with scrap euro coins
For nylig blev der afsløret et bedrageri i millionklassen med skrottede euromønter, hvor tonsvis af skrottede euromønter blev genimporteret fra Kina til Tyskland for at blive ombyttet hos den tyske centralbank som angiveligt beskadigede mønter.
An instance of fraud involving scrap euro coins worth millions has recently been uncovered, in which tons of scrap euro coins were brought back to Germany from China with the aim of exchanging these ‘damaged’ coins at the Bundesbank.
Det formodes, at banden satte mønterne sammen igen af allerede adskilte kerner af kobbernikkel og ringe af messing.
The gang responsible is assumed to have reassembled the copper cores and brass rings of the coins, which had previously been separated.
Ifølge medierne skrotter den tyske centralbank normalt beskadigede mønter i en decoiner, hvor møntens indvendige kerne adskilles fra ringen og derefter valses.
According to media reports, the German Bundesbank usually uses a decoiner to scrap damaged coins, with the cores (the ‘pill’) being separated from the rings and rolled.
Derved bliver mønten let bølget og anses for værdiløs.
This gives the coins an undulating surface, thus rendering them invalid.
Det er angiveligt meget vanskeligt at recycle den igen fra den bølgede tilstand.
It is said to be very difficult to reuse coins which have this undulating shape.
Hvilken værdi bliver mønterne vekslet til i hvilke centralbanker?
What is the value of the coins exchanged, and at which national banks were they exchanged?
Hvilke konsekvenser vil afsløringen af denne bedragerisag få på EU‑niveau?

Om: Sharia skærper konflikter mellem kristne og muslimer i Nigeria
Subject: Sharia inciting conflict between Christians and Muslims in Nigeria
Der er fortsat ikke udsigt til en løsning på konflikterne mellem kristne og muslimer i Nigeria, som alene i byen Jos har krævet godt 1.000 dødsofre.
There remains no end in sight to the conflicts between Christians and Muslims in Nigeria, as a result of which around 1 000 people have lost their lives in the town of Jos alone.
I en artikel i avisen Die Presse den 7. april 2011 står der herom:
An article in the daily Die Presse newspaper of 7 April 2011 reads as follows:
Direktøren for Caritas i stiftet Enugu nævner tværtimod helt nøgternt en betingelse, som skal være opfyldt, for at der kan ske en varig afspænding i forholdet mellem kristne og muslimer: »Sharialovens gyldighed i 12 delstater skal ophæves.« Det er nemlig indførelsen af islamisk lovgivning i nogle islamisk dominerede regioner i 1999, der er kimen til spændingerne.
The director of Caritas in the Diocese of Enugu rationally describes a condition which must prevail if relations between Christians and Muslims are to calm down in a lasting way: ‘the primacy of Sharia law in twelve states must be removed’.
For muslimerne i Nigeria er det åbenbart kommet som »et chok«, at kristendommen er vokset så hurtigt, siger Ike.
The basic reason for the tension, he says, lies in the introduction of Islamic law in several predominantly Muslim regions in 1999.
For bare 100 år siden var der slet ingen kristne i Nigeria, men i dag er der alene 40 mio. katolikker i landet.
The dramatic growth of Christianity, says Ike, has clearly come as a shock to Nigeria’s Muslims; as little as a hundred years ago there were no Christians in the country, whilst today there are 40 million Catholics alone.
Et andet punkt er ifølge Ike islams kollision med det moderne, med globaliseringen.
Another problem, he says, is the collision of Islam with the modern world and globalisation.
Det kommer især til udtryk i radikale grupper som »Boko Haram«, hvilket i oversættelse omtrent betyder »(vestlig) kultur er en synd«.
This can be seen primarily in radical groups such as ‘Boko Haram’, which translates more or less as ‘(Western) education is a sin’.
Lederne af Boko Haram er imidlertid folk med penge og internetopkobling, fortæller Ike: »De instrumentaliserer religionen til deres politiske formål.«
The leaders of Boko Haram have money and an Internet connection, explains Ike: ‘They use religion for their political ends.’
Hvorvidt er Kommissionen enig i Caritasdirektørens vurdering?
Does the Commission agree with the assessment of the director of Caritas?
Arbejdes der på EU‑niveau for at ophæve sharialoven i Nigeria?
Are efforts being made at EU level to have Sharia removed in Nigeria?
Findes der projekter på EU‑niveau, der forsøger at modarbejde instrumentaliseringen af islam til politiske formål, som opildner konflikterne?
Are there any EU‑level projects attempting to counter the use of Islam as a tool for political purposes, which is inciting the conflicts?

Om: Selvmordsrate for unge kvinder med tyrkisk indvandrerbaggrund
Subject: Suicide rate among young women from a Turkish migrant background
Flere undersøgelser viser, at selvmordsraten for piger og unge kvinder af tyrkisk afstamning er væsentligt højere end for piger og kvinder af anden herkomst.
A number of studies have shown that the suicide rate among girls and young women of Turkish origin is much higher than for girls and women from other ethnic backgrounds.
Også Verdenssundhedsorganisationens multicenterundersøgelse viser, at selvmordsraten for tyrkiske kvinder i alderen 16‑24 år er dobbelt så høj som for jævnaldrende kvinder fra tyske familier.
For example, the multi-centre study carried out by the World Health Organisation has demonstrated that the suicide rate among Turkish women aged between 16 and 24 is twice as high as for German women in the same age group.
Ifølge eksperter skyldes dette de fortsat store kulturelle forskelle, som pigerne er udsat for.
Experts take the view that the reason for this phenomenon lies in the major differences in cultural attitudes to which young Turkish women continue to be exposed.
Epidemiologerne Hajo Zeeb og Oliver Razum konkluderer i deres undersøgelse »Selvmordsdødelighed blandt tyrkere i Tyskland«, som blev offentliggjort i 2004, at den høje selvmordsrate for piger og kvinder af tyrkisk afstamning formodentlig kan forklares med socialt eller kulturelt betingede konfliktsituationer.
The 2004 study entitled ‘Suicide deaths among Turks in Germany’ by the epidemiologists Hajo Zeeb and Oliver Razum concluded that the high suicide rate among women and girls of Turkish origin can probably be explained by ‘social or cultural conflicts’.
Er EU bekendt med denne problematik?
Is the EU aware of this problem?
Foreligger der tal for, hvor høj selvmordsraten for unge kvinder er i andre lande i EU?

What does the Commission regard as the reasons for this high suicide rate?
I hvilket omfang vil dette punkt blive taget op i forbindelse med tiltrædelsesforhandlingerne?

Om: Emballageforordning — angivelse af grundprisen
Subject: Packaging regulation — indication of the unit price
Forbrugere er vanedyr, som — hvis de er velinformerede — kender prisen på en vare (f.eks. yoghurt af et bestemt mærke og en bestemt sort), men ikke grundprisen.
Consumers are creatures of habit, who, if they are well informed, know the price of an item in their shopping basket (e.g. a carton of a particular type and brand of yoghurt), but not the unit price of that item.
Hvis købsprisen forbliver uændret, lægger man ikke mærke til en reduktion af mængden, altså de facto en forhøjelse af grundprisen.
If the sale price of a given item remains the same, consumers often fail to notice a reduction in the amount the pack contains, i.e. a de facto increase in the unit price.
Lige store emballager med mindre indhold anpriser supermarkeder ofte som »kampagnetilbud« eller »specialtilbud«.
Standard-size packs with reduced contents are often promoted in supermarkets as ‘special offers’.
For alligevel at gøre det muligt for forbrugerne at sammenligne prisen på trods af ændrede emballagestørrelser — som jo blev liberaliseret med reformen af emballageforordningen — findes der en yderligere prisangivelse på basis af 100 g eller literbasis.
In order to enable consumers to compare prices for products despite changes in pack size — a tactic facilitated by the reform of the EU packaging regulation — the price is also indicated per 100 grams or per litre.
Mens grundprisen er umiddelbart synlig i nogle medlemsstater, altså i en skriftstørrelse, som er næsten lige så stor som selve prisen på pakningen, så fungerer dette ikke særligt godt i andre medlemsstater.
Although in some Member States the unit price is clearly indicated in a font size almost as large as that used for the pack price, in other Member States life is more difficult for consumers.
I Østrig har man f.eks. i nogle tilfælde næsten brug for en lup for at læse disse prisangivelser.
In Austria, for example, a magnifying glass is sometimes needed to read the unit price.
Er det ifølge EU‑lovgivningen tilladt at anprise lige store emballager med mindre indhold, hvor grundprisen de facto er blevet forhøjet i forhold til de øvrige varer, som »kampagnetilbud« eller »specialtilbud«?
Is it permissible under EC law to promote standard-size packs which contain a smaller amount of the product being sold, a change which amounts to an increase in the unit price, as ‘special offers’?
Hvilke størrelseskrav for angivelse af grundprisen er der fastlagt på EU‑plan?
On the basis of what standard measurements are unit prices indicated at EU level?
Findes der regler for, hvor grundprisen skal være placeret, f.eks. på en skinne direkte under produktet?
Are there rules stipulating where the unit price must be indicated, e.g. in a slot immediately below the shelf where the product is displayed?

Om: Emballageforordning — vildledning om emballagens indhold
Subject: Packaging Regulation — misleading of consumers about the contents of packagings
Med reformen af emballageforordningen er det nærmest blevet overladt til producenterne selv at fastlægge emballagestørrelsen.
The reform of the EU Packaging Regulation gave manufacturers virtually total freedom to decide on packaging sizes.
Forbrugerorganisationen i Hamburg har siden reformen udarbejdet en godt 26 sider lang liste over producenter eller mærker, hvor pakningerne er blevet kunstigt formindsket.
Since then, Hamburg Consumers' Association has drawn up a list, which is a good 26 pages long, of businesses and brands whose product packages have attracted attention because they have artificially been reduced in size.
Det er der følgende eksempler på:
Examples include:
Flydende vaskemiddel fra Henkel (til en uændret pris på 3,45 EUR rækker indholdet nu kun til 18 tøjvaske mod oprindeligt 20 = prisforhøjelse på 11,1 %).
Henkel liquid detergent (now contains only enough for 18 washes, as against 20 previously, while the price has remained unchanged at EUR 3.45 = a price rise of 11.1 %).
Ifølge en test foretaget af det østrigske arbejderkammer bliver forbrugerne målrettet vildledt om pakningens indhold.
According to an investigation by the Austrian Chamber of Labour, consumers are deliberately being misled about the content of packagings.
For 25 af de undersøgte produkters vedkommende udgør forholdet mellem luft og indhold 50 %. ##########A
In 25 of the products examined, the ratio of air to the content was 50 %.
