Report concerning discharge in respect of the implementation of the general budget of the European Union for the 2002 financial year
EP vedtog - 273 stemmer for, 225 imod, medens 6 undlod at stemme - Ceyhun-betænkningen.
Section VII – Committee of the Regions (I5-0034/2003 – C5-0088/2004 –2003/2216(DEC))
EP vedtog en beslutning om status over det transatlantiske samarbejde forud for EU-USA-topmødet i Dublin den 25.-26. juni 2004.
Parliament has granted discharge to the Council, Court of Justice, Court of Auditors, the Economic and Social Committee, Committee of the Regions and the Ombudsman, although it had some reservations concerning the Court of Justice , the Court of Auditors and the Committee of the Regions and although it wanted a better insight into the Council's operational expenditure in the future.
EP peger på, at det kommende topmøde EU-USA-topmøde er det første efter den omfattende udvidelse af EU med 10 nye medlemslande, hvilket bør medføre en styrkelse af det globale fællesskab mellem EU og USA.
MEPs stressed the need for a more comprehensive exchange of information with the Council on its budget expenditure.
EP understreger betydningen af en bred dialog om det politiske, økonomiske og forsvars- og sikkerhedsmæssige samarbejde mellem 2 partnere som grundlaget for det transatlantiske fællesskab.
They welcomed the Council's proposal for an informal dialogue in the course of the discharge procedure.
EP mener, at på trods af visse fundamentale forskelle mellem Europa og USA, så er der mere der forbinder, end der adskiller de 2 parter .
MEPs had been upset that, unlike last year, the Council had refused this year to reply to the questions sent to it by the committee.
Man peger dog på, at den vedvarende situation i Guantanamo klart skader USA's ry og hæmmer de transatlantiske forbindelser mellem EU og USA, eftersom EU ikke kan acceptere disse lovgivningsmæssige og retlige uregelmæssigheder, der undergraver retsstatens mest grundlæggende værdier.
In the case of the Court of Auditors and the Court of Justice, MEPs asked Parliament's Budgets Committee to hold part of the 2005 administrative appropriations in reserve if there is no satisfactory response to the EP's concern over non-official car use and the system of salary weightings.
"Transatlantisk handlingsfællesskab"?
Members of the Court of Auditors and the Court of Justice enjoy the right to have their salaries transferred to another EU country with an added " coefficient " or top-up figure.
Europa-Parlamentet foreslår, at man opbygger et "transatlantisk handlingsfællesskab" for et regionalt og globalt samarbejde, som skal omfatte følgende prioriterede måder:
Also, members of the Court of Justice and the Court of Auditors can use official cars for private ends up to a ceiling of respectively 30,000 and 40,000 kilometres per year.
styrke FN gennem omfattende reformer, som gør det muligt for FN at handle hurtigere og mere effektivt,
MEPs also proposed that discharge be granted to the Economic and Social Committee and the Ombudsman.
standsning af spredningen af atomare, kemiske og biologiske masseødelæggelsesvåben,
MEPs said a root and branch overhaul of senior management, working methods and respect for internal audit were essential and that they were surprised at the dismissal of the findings and recommendations in the OLAF report, which was very critical.
bekæmpelse af AIDS og smitsomme sygdomme ,
They also deplored the treatment of the then Financial Controller - who has since become the Internal Auditor - and wanted to know why the internal audit unit had not yet been strengthened.
langsigtet integration af Kina i verdenssamfundet ,
They called for the necessary steps to be taken to ensure the total independence of the Internal Auditor.
Ruslands videre udvikling hen imod en demokratisk stat og en fungerende markedsøkonomi, som vil udgøre grundlaget for et strategisk partnerskab,
Criticism was also expressed at the fact that the administrative inquiry was not concluded until April but that the Administration has already earlier established that the Internal Auditor has not been harassed at all.

Report concerning discharge for the financial management of the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) for the financial year ended 23 July 2002
EP glæder sig over det førsteklasses og grundige arbejde, Kommissionens interne revisionstjeneste (IAS) og Eurostats interne revisionsenhed (IAC) har udført.
MEPs demanded that the Commission make a full evaluation over the next three months of the Eurostat affair including all reports by the fraud-fighting office OLAF.
Man finder dog, at de ekstremt lange forsinkelser og Kommissionens modstand og uvilje mod at forelægge disse vitale rapporter for EP er uacceptabel.
MEPs repeated their criticism over the slow response of Commissioners to the warning signs and the poor flow of information within the Commission.
Europa-Parlamentet fastslår, at "Eurostat-sagen" har bragt alvorlige problemer for dagens lys, hvad angår arbejdsmetoderne i både Kommissionen og OLAF.
MEPs call on the Commission to make the political responsibility for their departments " a meaningful concept ".
Man mener, at "Eurostat-sagen" har afsløret alvorlige mangler ved forvaltningen af Kommissionens interne kontrolsystem, og at den omstændighed, at Kommissionen ikke har kunnet give overbevisende svar, undergraver selve troværdigheden ved hele systemet.
Parliament announced that it would continue to monitor future developments in the OLAF investigations and possible legal actions.

Forslag til beslutning
Evelyne GEBHARDT (PES, D)
Forslaget kommer til afstemning tirsdag den 4. maj under EP-samlingen i Strasbourg, som er den sidste før valget til Europa-Parlamentet den 10.-13 juni 2004.
The draft legislation being proposed by the European Commission lays down the conditions under which the competent authorities in the Member States responsible for the enforcement of the laws that protect consumers interests are to be designated and are to co-operate with each other.
Man mener, at Kommissionen i betragtning af den manglende tillid, der er opstået, må påtage sig et kollektivt ansvar for ikke at have handlet på talrige opfordringer.
They may also designate other bodies having a legitimate interest in the cessation of intra-Community infringements.
Kommissionen har ikke været i stand til at opfylde sine forpligtelser i henhold til EU-traktatens artikel 276 og sit eget mål om "nul-tolerance" over for svindel/bedrageri og opnåelse af "den bedste forvaltning i verden".
These authorities shall have the necessary investigation and enforcement powers in accordance with national law and exercised it only where there is a reasonable suspicion that an infringements has taken place.
Danske MEP'er En række danske MEP'er er medunderskrivere på forslaget om mistillidsvotum: Bent Hindrup Andersen, Freddy Blak, Jens-Peter Bonde, Mogens Camre, Pernille Frahm, Ole Krarup og Ulla Sandbæk.
Concerning databases, the MEPs are saying that the Commission must maintain an electronic databases storing and processing the information regarding an intra-Community infringement.
Bonde havde fremsat et forslag til mistillidsvotum med 67 underskrifter , og dette skal til debat inden 24 timer, fastslog Bonde.
MEPs also amended the Commission proposal so as to ensure better protection of personal data as well as professional and commercial secrecy.
Han ønskede ikke en afstemning i maj, hvor man skal festligholde udvidelsen med de 10 nye lande.
With a few exceptions, all information communicated will thus be confidential, including information which, if disclosed, would for example undermine the commercial interests (including intellectual property), court proceedings etc.
Mistillidsvotummet var ikke fremsat for, at der skulle rulle hoveder, men for at placere et ansvar i "Eurostat-sagen".
This is valid, of course, unless its disclosure is necessary to end or prohibit an intra-Community infringement.
Bonde bad formanden meddele, at afstemningen var på dagsordenen under april-samlingen.
They were similarly urged to develop a common framework for the classification of consumer complaints.
Afstemning i maj?
Fiorella GHILARDOTTI (PES, I)
Pat Cox fastslog, at mistillidsvotummet var korrekt indgivet, medens formanden for PPE-gruppen, den tyske CDU'er Hans-Gert PÖTTERING understregede, at hans gruppe intet havde med mistillidsvotumet at gøre.
The aim of the directive is to lay down standard EU-wide criteria for determining whether a commercial practice is unfair, although without imposing any positive obligations on traders to show that they are trading fairly.
Jens-Peter BONDE sagde, at sigtet med mistillidsvotumet var at få Kommissionen til at placere et ansvar, og gjorde man det, så var der ikke noget at stemme om.
The House sought to further define the scope of the Commission proposal on unfair business-to-consumer commercial practices.
Han opfordrede derfor Kommissionen til selv at placere ansvaret, for så er sagen ude af verden.
Whereas the Commission proposal stated that the directive would apply to unfair commercial practices before and after a commercial transaction in relation to any product, the Parliament amended the proposal to say that it shall apply "to consumers transactional decisions even where these decisions do not result in a contract between the consumer and a trader".
Mogens CAMRE fra Dansk Folkeparti var bekendt med, at 2 MEP'er fra hans gruppe havde skrevet under, men de var slettet af listen.
Turning to misleading commercial practices, the House voted in favour of including a number of new definitions of those, currently absent from the Commission proposal.
Den franske grønne Daniel COHN-BENDIT pegede på, at hvis mistillidsvotummet først kommer til afstemning under maj-samlingen, så er det et nyt parlament med 10 % flere medlemmer, og derfor kræver en vedtagelse, at 10 % flere MEP'er stemmer for .
Parliament voted to amend the Commission proposal by defining the term "particular group of consumers" as a group of consumers who have distinct characteristics such as vulnerability due to age, disability, physical or mental conditions and similar, all of which may influence their assessment or their reaction capacities.
Han mente, at det var en idiotisk politisk handling, og at det var hykleri over for vælgerne, som intet forstår.
Finally the House adopted an amendment stating that the Commission must report regularly to the EP and the Council on the application of the directive in the Member States and should put forward, every five years, a proposal for a revised list of commercial practices which are in all circumstances considered unfair.
Cohn-Bendit ønskede et mistillidsvotum til Bonde, som ikke har forstand på traktaterne.

Mediepluralisme i EU:Boogerd-Quaak-betænkningen vedtaget!
Consumer credit: EU rules in the pipeline

Risikoen for alvorlige krænkelser i EU og navnlig i Italien af ytrings- og informationsfriheden (artikel 11, stk. 2, i EU's charter om grundlæggende rettigheder)
Report on the proposal for a European Parliament and Council directive on the harmonisation of the laws, regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States concerning credit for consumers
Pluralismen i EU trues af den styring af medierne , der udøves af politiske organer eller enkeltpersoner og visse kommercielle organisationer - fx. reklamebureauer.
Parliament adopted a legislative resolution amending the draft directive on consumer credit in a number of key areas.
Det fastslår EP i en betænkning af den hollandske liberale Johanna BOOGERD-QUAAK om risikoen for alvorlige krænkelser af grundlæggende rettigheder som ytrings- og informationsfrihed i EU - og navnlig i Italien .
MEPs argued that the major aims of this directive should be to enhance consumer protection, avoid over-indebtedness and provide optimum harmonisation of the laws and procedures of the Member States.
EP understreger, at nationale, regionale eller lokale regeringer ikke bør misbruge deres stilling ved at udøve indflydelse på medierne, og at endnu strengere garantier bør være gældende, når et regeringsmedlem har specifikke interesser i medierne.
Parliament therefore stated that Member States should retain the right to grant their consumers even higher standards of protection.
Det lave stemmetal skyldes, at bl.a. PPE-gruppen ikke deltog i afstemningen i protest mod, at EP-formand Pat COX - efter en afstemning herom - havde afvist 338 ændringsforslag.
However, MEPs acknowledged that in some areas full harmonisation may be needed to ensure that consumers can compare offers and hence boost the internal market in consumer credit.
Formanden for PPE-gruppen, den tyske CDU'er Hans-Gert PÖTTERING mente, at formandens beslutning ikke holder juridisk , og derfor ville hans gruppe undlade at stemme.
An example would be the rules on the annual percentage rate of charge laid down in the directive.
Et forslag om at tage Boogerd-Quaak-betænkningen af EP-dagsordenen blev nedstemt med 259 stemmer mod 214 - medens 1 undlod at stemme.
MEPs wish to exclude various types of loans from the directive.
Boogerd-Quaak-betænkningen blev vedtaget efter nogle af de mest ophidsede debatter i Europa-Parlamentets historie.
These include credit agreements of less than €500 or more than €100,000 in net loan, further credit agreements secured either by a mortgage on immovable property, hiring and leasing agreements, private credit agreements, credit which an employer gives his employees as a subsidiary service and credit in the form of an advance on a current account or a debit account if the total amount must be paid back within three months or on demand.
Onsdag den 21. april 2004 om morgenen opstod der en længere meningsudveksling i EP om afstemningen om Boogerd-Quaak-betænkningen om mediepluralisme i EU , hvor den italienske ministerpræsident Silvio Berlusconi bl.a. kritiseres for at kontrollere de italienske TV-kanaler .
Another key point for MEPs is the need for standardised information about credit offers and credit agreements, to enable consumers to make comparisons more easily Europe-wide and choose the best product.
Meningsudvekslingen fortsatte ved begyndelsen af afstemningerne kl. 12, og det hele endte med, at Europa-Parlamentet besluttede at udsætte afstemningen om Boogerd-Quaak-betænkningen til torsdag den 22. april kl. 12..
Parliament says this information should always include the annual percentage rate of charge, the agreed duration of the credit, the number and amount of monthly payments and the total cost of the credit.
EP skal stemme om den oprindelige tekst - punkt for punkt.
Additional information, in particular with relation to costs, the modalities for repayment, any deposit required or the amount of the rates may be provided separately.
Der var fremsat 338 ændringsforslag - heraf 157 fra PPE-gruppen om elektronisk afstemning og adskilte afstemninger, som i "bedste fald" ville have medført ca. 600 afstemninger, hvilket ville have taget ca. 2 timer af Europa-Parlamentets tid.
MEPs were also keen to ensure that both creditor and consumer provide information prior to the signing of an agreement, so that the creditor can assess the consumer's creditworthiness on the basis of the information provided.
EP besluttede med 234 stemmer for, 214 imod - medens 15 undlod at stemme - at afvise de 600 afstemninger.
Concerning overdrafts, the consumer has to be informed at the time or before the agreement is signed about the credit limit, annual percentage rate of change, of any change of this rate and all the conditions and procedure for terminating the agreement.
Duopol: RAI og MEDIASET EP bemærker, at samtidig med, at det italienske fjernsyn tilbyder 12 nationale og 10-15 regionale og lokale kanaler, så er markedet karakteriseret ved duopol mellem RAI og MEDIASET , hvor begge sammenlagt tegner sig for næsten 90 % af det samlede seertal og 75 % af sektorens midler.
Regarding cross-border credit , the Parliament says each Member State must grant access to databases to creditors from other Member States under the same conditions as for firms and individuals in its own country.
Det italienske system opviser skævheder, som følge af en unik kombination af økonomisk, politisk og mediemæssig magt i hænderne på en enkelt mand, den italienske ministerpræsident og den kendsgerning, at den italienske regering direkte eller indirekte kontrollerer alle nationale fjernsynskanaler.
MEPs added that the consumer and the guarantor have to be informed of the results of any such consultation immediately and without charge.
Man er bekymret over, at de forhold, der eksisterer i Italien, også kan opstå i andre medlemslande.
The consumer should be allowed to pay back loans at any time before the period fixed in the agreement.
Man mener, at den aktuelle situation i Italien muligvis kunne være undgået, hvis medlemslandenes forpligtelse til at sikre mediernes pluralisme var blevet fastlagt efter grønbogen om pluralisme i 1992.
The consumer may also refuse to repay the credit if the goods were not delivered or the services not provided.
EP anmoder endvidere om, at der udarbejdes en årlig rapport om pluralisme med undersøgelse af koncentrationsniveauet på udbudssiden - horisontalt, vertikalt og krydsejerskab - redaktionel uafhængighed, oplysningernes forskelligartethed - internt og eksternt - og efterspørgselen, dvs. offentlighedens ønsker, og at princippet om pluralisme inden for medierne medtages udtrykkeligt i den årlige rapport fra EU's netværk af uafhængige menneskerettighedseksperter.

EU-traktatens artikel 7:Fremme værdier EU bygger på
Harmonised Customs Controls Measures throughout the Union
Ordfører: Johannes VOGGENHUBER (Verts/ALE, A)
Janelly FOURTOU (EPP-ED, F)
Kommissionens meddelelse til Rådet og Europa-Parlamentet om artikel 7 i traktaten om Den Europæiske Union.
Report on the proposal for a European Parliament and Council regulation amending Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 establishing the Community Customs Code
EU-Kommissionen har fremlagt en meddelelse om artikel 7 i EU-traktaten , og om hvordan man kan fremme de værdier EU bygger på .
The House adopted by 454 votes in favour, 7 against with 51 abstentions a number of amendments to the Community Customs Code regulation, with a vote under the simplified procedure.
I en betænkning af den østrigske grønne Johannes VOGGENHUBER hilser EP Kommissionens initiativ velkommen som et vigtigt bidrag til at etablere et tæt samarbejde mellem alle EU's institutioner til gavn for menneskerettighederne, de grundlæggende friheder og EU's værdier og principper.
The purpose of the regulation is to bring together the basic concepts underlying the new security-management concept for the EU's external borders, such as a harmonised system for risk assessment.
Voggenhuber-betænkningen blev vedtaget med 383 stemmer mod 30 - medens 52 undlod at stemme.
Parliament agreed with the Commission proposal that it was necessary to establish an equivalent level of protection in customs controls on goods brought into the Community.
EP mener dog, at der ved konstatering af en klar fare for overtrædelse af artikel 7, stk. 1 af de i artikel 6, stk. 1 anførte principper eller en grovere vedvarende overtrædelse jvf. artikel 7, stk. 2 skal være sikkerhed for en større grad af beskyttelse end indeholdt i Kommissionens forslag.
In order to achieve this objective the establishment of an equivalent level of customs control in the Community is necessary, as is the guarantee of a harmonised application of customs controls by the Member States.
Grove overtrædelser EP mener, at anvendelse af artikel 7 i EU-traktaten skal ske under hensyntagen til politiske fænomener, som må anses for at udgøre en klar fare for eller en grov og vedvarende overtrædelse af EU's principper , og som ikke blot udgør en akkumulering af enkelte overtrædelser:
The House was in agreement with the Commission proposal regarding the fact that all information, which is by nature confidential, should be covered by the obligations of professional secrecy.
Grove overtrædelser af folkeretten kan udgøre en klar risiko eller overtrædelse af EU's grundlæggende principper.
Parliament also adopted an amendment, which adds that customs controls for the purpose of the correct application of Community legislation may be carried out in a third country where an international agreement provides for this.

Den 19. november 2002 sank olietankeren ”Prestige” ud for den galiciske kyst – i Nordspanien – efter at have drevet rundt i hårdt vejr i 6 dage.
Parliament gave its assent to the ratification of the agreement by which the Community becomes a full member of Eurocontrol, the European Organisation for the Safety of Air Navigation.
Dette førte til en økologisk og økonomisk katastrofe af usædvanligt omfang.
In doing so, it followed the recommendation of rapporteur Christine DE VEYRAC (EPP-ED, F), who believes this will help ensure better coordination between EU and Eurocontrol initiatives regarding air traffic control.
Især fiskeri- og turistsektoren i Galicien og i de tilgrænsende regioner er blevet hårdt ramt.

”MARE-udvalget” Den 5. november 2003 vedtog EP at nedsætte et midlertidigt udvalg til forbedring af sikkerheden til søs – det såkaldte ”MARE-udvalg”. ”MARE-udvalget” fik bl.a. følgende opgaver :
At the request of President Pat COX , the plenary gave its opinion on whether to take action in the Court of Justice on the proposed ' light touch ' agreement between the Commission and the US authorities on the transfer of personal data on transatlantic air passengers.
At foretage en grundig undersøgelse af katastrofer til søs , navnlig ”Prestiges” og ”Erikas” forlis samt andre nylige ulykker og hændelser,
Parliament voted by 276 votes in favour to 260 votes against with 13 abstentions that the matter should be referred to the Court.
