At foretage en vurdering af sikkerhedsstandarder til søs og medlemslandenes anvendelse af disse i overensstemmelse med EU-retten og folkeretten,
President Pat COX (ELDR, Munster) told the House he had received a letter from Giuseppe GARGANI (EPP-ED, I) Chairman of the Legal Affairs Committee, recommending that he seek the opinion of the Court of Justice on the compatibility with the Treaty and existing directives of the draft ' light touch ' agreement on the transfer of personal data on transatlantic air passengers to the US authorities.
At foreslå yderligere tiltag , såfremt det anses for nødvendigt m.m.
Given the importance of the subject, he said he was seeking the opinion of the whole house on whether to do so, rather than directly addressing the Court.
Sterckx-betænkningen Det Midlertidige Udvalg om Øget Sikkerhed til Søs har nu fremlagt sin betænkning med den belgiske liberale Dirk STERCKX som ordfører.
This would also give the Commission the opportunity to comment on the matter.
Sterckx konstaterer, at nedsættelsen af ”MARE-udvalget” har gjort det muligt for Europa-Parlamentet at bygge videre på det arbejde, som blev udført under udarbejdelsen af den første ”Prestige”-betænkning.
Commissioner Frits BOLKESTEIN said that the Commission had been asked whether it would withdraw the draft agreement and seek to replace it with a more formal international agreement, in the context of Parliament's intention to go to the Court of Justice if this was not done.
Under de 3 offentlige høringer og mødet med Prestiges kaptajn er der kommet nyttige og supplerende oplysninger frem, både om sagsbehandlingen af ”Prestige”-katastrofen og om mulighederne for forbedring af søfartssikkerheden i Europa og på verdensplan.
He understood there were two key answers sought by Parliament: would the agreement modify the existing data protection directive, thereby not being well founded in terms of fundamental rights and Parliament's prerogatives, and what would be the safeguards for data transferred on by the US authorities to third country law enforcement agencies.
Sterckx-betænkningen blev vedtaget med 396 stemmer mod 24 - medens 13 undlod at stemme.
On the first point, he made it clear that the Commission did not consider the agreement to alter the existing directive.
I Sterckx-betænkningen peger EP på uklarheden om, hvad der præcist er blevet af brændselsolien fra ”Prestige”.
If this had been the case, the Commission would have proposed a different legal basis for the agreement.
Før katastrofen var der 77.000 tons svær brændselsolie om bord på ”Prestige”, og der skønnes nu at være 14.000 tons tilbage på skibet, at ca. 43.000 tons – ifølge tal fra de spanske myndigheder – er skyllet land eller er blevet ryddet op .
It did not, in fact, change the protection offered by the directive, he said.
Der befinder sig ca. 20.000 tons i havet, hvilket udgør en trussel for miljøet og kysterne.
It simply provided a legitimate basis for the processing of the data already requested by the US authorities, in so far as this was covered by the Commission's adequacy finding.
Retssag mod kaptajnen EP beklager, at næsten 1 ½ år efter ”Prestige”-katastrofen er der stadig ingen undersøgelser af årsagerne til og omstændighederne omkring katastrofen , som er blevet afsluttet eller offentliggjort.
Regarding the subsequent passing by the US of this data to third countries, Mr Bolkestein said this was a relatively new issue and discussions were not complete with the US - indeed they continued on 19/20 April 2003.
Man appellerer til de spanske myndigheder om at lempe kaptajn Mangouras’ pligt til dagligt at melde sig og så hurtigt som muligt at sørge for, at der fastsættes en dato og en plan for retssagen imod kaptajnen.
Any understanding reached on this issue would not however alter the agreement reached with the US - it would be a common understanding on how that agreement would be implemented.
EP er foruroliget over udtalelser fra de spanske myndigheder om, at det i tilfælde af en lignende katastrofe, som det var tilfældet med ”Prestige”, igen ville blive besluttet at lade skibet bugsere væk fra kysten.
He suggested that Parliament should wait to hear the outcome of these discussions and the Commission's reaction to them before moving to a vote on the issue.
Vigtige EU-tiltag I Sterckx-betænkningen fastslås det, at der i forbindelse med ”Erika” og ”Prestige” er truffet vigtige EU-tiltag for at øge søfartssikkerheden i EU-farvande , og at medlemslandenes hurtige og fuldstændige gennemførelse og strenge overholdelse af EU-lovgivningen bør derfor have første prioritet.
Klaus-Heiner LEHNE (D) for the EPP-ED group stated that if there were no agreement between the EU and the US on this subject, then there would be severe difficulties for EU citizens travelling to the US.
EP understreger vigtigheden af en klar struktur for beslutningstagning og en klar kommandovej ved katastrofer på havet og af en uafhængig myndighed, som har kompetence og ekspertise til at træffe de nødvendige beslutninger.
He recalled that his group had consistently opposed taking the Commission to the European Court of Justice over this issue.
Man anmoder Kommissionen om at undersøge muligheden for en obligatorisk forsikring for skibe i EU-farvande , sådan at skibsejeren kan afkræves erstatning for omkostninger til tilflugtsområderne.
Ornella PACIOTTI (I) for the PES group stated that the proposed agreement represented a " serious breach of fundamental right s".
Sortliste og sporing EP glæder sig over Kommissionens periodiske offentliggørelse af en sortliste over skibe, som bliver nægtet adgang til EU-farvande , og man anmoder medlemsstaterne til strengt at håndhæve dette.
She stated that there was no sufficient US legislation which guaranteed data protection for EU citizens.
Man opfordrer Kommissionen til at fremsætte forslag til sporing – ved hjælp af transpondere – af containere og andre lastmoduler med farlig last, sådan at de efter at være tabt på havet kan spores.
The agreement, she said, violated existing EU data protection legislation and underlined the necessity to bring the matter to the Court of Justice.
Meddelelse om gennemførelse af ILO-reglerne for leve- og arbejdsvilkår for søfolk ,
He was another speak to point out that the US did not have sufficient data privacy legislation to protect EU citizens.
Forordning om overholdelse af IMO’s flagstatsregler ,
He was also concerned that the data could be passed on to third-country governments.
Forordning om gennemførelsen af Athen-konventionen om erstatningsansvar over for passagerer og
Finally, he stated that the Commission should either withdraw its proposal, or, if it maintained its present position, then it would be necessary to refer the matter to the European Court of Justice.
Direktiv om undersøgelse af ulykker til søs .
For the EUL/NGL group Giuseppe DI LELLO FINUOLI (I) said the position of citizens regarding this agreement seemed to get worse all the time.
"Erika I" og "Erika II" Under debatten i EP tirsdag den 20. april 2004 sagde den belgiske liberale Herman VERMEER - der erstattede ordføreren Dick Sterckx - at "Prestige-katastrofen" havde udviklet sig til et europæisk drama , og at selv de belgiske og britiske kyster var blevet ramt.
Now it appeared that the data would be passed to third countries, which made the original breach of the treaty still worse, he said.
Den spanske EU-kommissær Loyola DE PALACIO mente, at det midlertidige udvalg har udført et glimrende arbejde og ydet et godt bidrag til at forbedre sikkerheden til søs.
Monica FRASSONI (B) for the Greens/EFA agreed with the previous three speakers that the referral to the Court of Justice should go ahead.
Vi bør være stolte over den nylige lovgivning i EU om sikkerhed til søs, som har gjort denne mandatperiode - 1999-2004 - til "søsikkerheds-mandatperioden" !
She said the Commission appeared to be trying to bypass democratic oversight on the issue, adopting soft law without a proper agreement.
Medlemslandene har dog ikke i tilstrækkeligt omfang gennemført dette i praksis, og de må gøre en større indsats for at omsætte EU-direktiverne til national lovgivning .
Perhaps, she concluded, the Commission would learn the lesson not to make such mistakes in the future.
Inden den 1. maj 2004 skal de 10 nye medlemslande vedtage EU-lovgivningen om sikkerhed til søs, og vi vil her være særligt årvågne over for Cypern og Malta.
The rapporteur on the subject, Johanna L.A. BOOGERD-QUAAK (ELDR, NL) said she was not happy with the Commissioner's statement.
De Palacio forventede, at EP på EU-budgettet for 2005 vil afsætte de nødvendige midler til det nye Agentur for søfartssikkerhed.
There were, she said, more than ten areas where the present agreement contravened the existing directive, and she did not believe such an agreement would be acceptable even to the US Congress.
Hun glædede sig over "sortlistningen" af gamle, farlige skibe , som betyder, at de sejler langt væk fra Europa.
On behalf of the citizens of Europe, Parliament should refer this matter to the Court, she concluded.
Kommissionen støttede arbejdet i IMO og håbede på en "enheds-konvention" på området for søfartssikkerhed.
The agreement could be better, he said, but the priority should be the fight against terrorism.
Hun pegede på nødvendigheden af, at enkeltskrogede skibe erstattes med dobbeltskrogede .
If necessary, the Court could always consider the matter after the agreement had been adopted.
Loyola de Palacio glædede sig over, at dette var blevet "søsikkerheds-mandatperioden", idet EU nu endelig havde besluttet sig til at beskytte sine egne kyster.
In the light of these comments, President Cox proposed to hold the debate on the Boogerd-Quaak report as planned and hear from the Commission at that point on the issue of passing data to third countries.
Havet tilhører alle - havet er en skat både for nuværende og kommende generationer , sluttede den spanske EU-kommissær.
A vote on whether to proceed with action at the Court was held on Wednesday, 21 April.

Report on the proposal for a Council decision on the conclusion of an Agreement between the European Community and the United States of America on the processing and transfer of PNR data by Air Carriers to the United States Department of Homeland Security, Bureau of Customs and Border Protection
Tirsdag den 16. marts 2004 nåede EP's og Ministerrådets delegationer i Forligsudvalget frem til et kompromis om den "anden jernbane-pakke" .
Parliament voted by 299 in favour, 218 against and 6 abstenstions to refer the Johanna L.A. BOOGERD-QUAAK (ELDR, NL) report on the transfer of passenger data back to the committee.
"Jernbane-pakken" består af 4 EU-lovgivningstekster:
The reasoning is that Parliament cannot endorse or reject the agreement as long as it does not know the European Court of Justice position on it.

"interoperabilitet" mellem de nationale jernbaner.
The rejection of the urgency means that the initiative will not now be considered by Parliament.
Datoen for liberaliseringen Hovedstridspunkterne var datoen for liberaliseringen af det europæiske jernbanenet og etableringen af et sikkerhedssystem for jernbanerne.
At its last part-session, Parliament deemed it unacceptable that the rights of those expelled are only listed in an annex to the proposal and not in the proposal itself.
EP ønskede at liberalisere jernbanegodstransporten og kombineret godstransport fra den 1. januar 2006, men kompromiset endte med at blive, at de nationale godstjenester liberaliseres den 1. januar 2007.
Furthermore, MEPs believe it is important to display consistency by drawing up a common asylum policy before introducing a common return policy.

Lastbilchaufførers arbejds- og hviletid: Overholdelse af EU-regler
European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction
Ordfører: Helmuth MARKOV (GUE/NGL, D)
Ozan CEYHUN (PES, D)
Etableringen af det indre marked og liberaliseringen af vejtransportsektoren har skærpet konkurrencen på dette område.
Sticking points were the date for liberalisation of the railways in the EU, the setting up of a railway safety system and the composition of the board of the railway agency.
Endvidere har væksten i handelen som helhed og med de central- og østeuropæiske lande i særdeleshed øget trafikken betragteligt.
The most sensitive issue was Parliament's amendment calling for liberalisation of all rail freight services and combined goods services by 1 January 2006.
I den forbindelse har virksomheder skaffet sig konkurrencefordele gennem manglende overholdelse af EU's bestemmelser om køre- og hviletider.
However, the EP delegation compromised on this point and as a result of the agreement, national freight services will be liberalised from 1 January 2007.
Dette er baggrunden for Kommissionens seneste forslag til direktiv om sociale bestemmelser inden for vejtransportvirksomhed.
The Commission is in fact proposing this date for liberalisation of international passenger services in its third rail package.
Dette skal bl.a. ske ved at hæve procentsatsen af de kontroller, medlemsstaterne mindst skal gennemføre, fra 1% til 3 % af dagene.
Turning to other aspects of the package, the Council accepted all Parliament's proposals regarding rail safety .
EP ønsker strengere kontrol EP er positive overfor Kommissionens direktivforslag og mener, at strengere kontrol med gennemførelsen af reglerne er nødvendig for at forbedre chaufførernes arbejdsvilkår.
Train drivers and other staff performing vital safety tasks will now be required to have an adequate command of the codes, vocabulary and language necessary for operations on the routes operated.
EP mener dog, at andelen af arbejdsdage, der skal kontrolleres for chauffører, kun skal hæves til 2 % og ikke 3 % som foreslået af Kommissionen.
With regard to interoperability , a mandatory recording device (black box), similar to those used on planes and ships, will be installed on trains.
Endelig fremhæver EP, at mindst 15 % af det samlede antal arbejdsdage, der kontrolleres, skal kontrolleres på vejene og mindst 50 % hos virksomhederne.
In order to achieve a compromise, Parliament agreed that the Administrative Board of the European Railway Agency should have 25 members from 1 May 2004, i.e. a representative from every Member State, even though Malta and Cyprus do not have railway systems.
Menneskerettighederne i 2003:500 millioner handicappede i verden!

Ordføreren blev anmodet om at fremlægge en ny betænkning, efter at den britiske konservative Geoffrey van ORDEN under henvisning til EP-forretningsordenens artikel 165, stk. 5 havde fremtvunget en afstemning om at udsætte afstemningen om De Keyser-betænkningen, hvor 20 MEP'er stemte for udsættelse og 19 imod.
Following the Prestige disaster, Parliament decided to set up a temporary committee to investigate this incident and other disasters at sea, including the wreck of the Erika off the coast of Brittany on 12 December 1999.
Madrid-bombeterroren Baggrunden for udsættelse af afstemningen var, at efter bombeterroren i Madrid den 11. marts 2004, så følte mange MEP'er i PPE-gruppen, at der var behov for at tænke yderligere over De Keyser-betænkningen for at tage højde for den seneste udvikling på terrorisme-området .
The committee had held three public hearings with maritime experts as well as talks with the European Commission, the Irish Presidency, Spanish government representatives and the Spanish government commissioner responsible for the Prestige case.
Veronique De Keyser fastslår i begrundelsen til sin betænkning, at attentatet den 11. september 2001 har kastet verden ud i en meget ustabil situation.
MEPs call for a comprehensive and cohesive maritime policy, which should have as its objective the creation of a European maritime safety area.
Ud over de væbnede konflikter, som i lang tid har hærget visse regioner har terrorismen og forfærdelige gengældelsesaktioner, som den har udløst, skabt en ny situation på den internationale scene.
This policy should be based on the following measures: the banning of substandard vessels, the drawing up of joint protocols on prevention, action and reparation in the event of disasters, the introduction of a system of liability covering the entire maritime transport chain and the public authorities responsible for safety at sea, and the improvement of living and working conditions for seafarers.
EP: "Moralsk myndighed"?
A majority of MEPs rejected the adoption of a European flag on Community vessels.
Veronique De Keyser gør status over menneskerettighederne i de forløbne 5 år, og hun fastslår, at en række af Europa-Parlamentets krav er blevet efterkommet.
It also called for the establishment of a European coast guard equipped with the necessary equipment to ensure maritime safety, the protection of the marine environment, strict monitoring of adherence to certain shipping routes, prosecution for the illegal entry of vessels and the swiftest possible co-ordination of the necessary measures in the event of an accident at sea.
EP er med rette stolt af sin succes med at styrke menneskerettighedsdimensionen og med at sætte menneskerettighedsspørgsmål på den europæiske dagsorden .
Bearing in mind that up to 80% of accidents at sea are due to human error, Parliament stressed that in the interest of safety at sea, it was essential that seafarers should be qualified, enjoy decent working conditions, working hours and remuneration and that an end be put to overexploitation which exists on many ships.
Dette står som et af EP's vigtigste resultater.
Members urged the introduction of compulsory refresher courses and courses on rescue operation for seafarers.
De fremskridt Europa-Parlamentet har opnået er - da der ikke i EU-traktaten findes regler, som tillægger EP en beslutningstagende rolle i udenrigs- og sikkerhedspolitikken - vidnesbyrd om EP's rolle som en moralsk - snarere end en juridisk - myndighed!
MEPs stressed the need for radical changes at the level of structure and responsibilities to the complex nexus of businesses that contracts international maritime traffic.
Terrorisme I De Keyser-betænkningen understreger EP, at kampen mod terrorismen skal finde sted i overensstemmelse med international ret, og at de demokratiske lande bør være et forbillede på dette område.
This nexus was an obstacle to the efficient inspection of vessels, the introduction of safety measures, professional training etc.
MEP'erne fordømmer også visse diktaturer, som bruger kampen mod terrorismen som et påskud til at øge undertrykkelsen af politiske modstandere.
It voices concern at the statement by the Spanish government commissioner, Mr Fernández, that if an identical disaster were to happen the same decision would be taken again.
500 millioner handicappede i verden Der er ca. 500 millioner handicappede i verden - ifølge skøn fra FN - og handicappede indtager en central placering i De Keyser-betænkningen.
Although the sealing operation to stop oil leaking from the wreck of the Prestige and the specific plans for making the wreck safe are welcomed, the committee calls on the competent authorities to continue their efforts to tackle the problem of the oil still present in the sea and the thousands of tonnes of waste in landfills.
2003 var det Europæiske Handicapår, og man fokuserede bl.a. på handicappedes inddragelse i det sociale liv, erhvervslivet, familielivet og "det følelsesmæssige liv og seksuallivet".
MEPs say the authorities should put forward a detailed calendar for the extraction and the treatment of the waste.
EP beklager, at man ikke overholder menneskerettighederne over for mange handicappede i verden, især de handicappede der bor på institutioner, hvor de udsættes for misbrug, vold og "nedladende behandling" .
They also urge that the expertise gained in the process be made widely available and used in tackling any further accidents.
Resultaterne af processen mod Leyla Zana m.fl. i Ankara
Before the disaster, there were 77,000 tonnes of heavy oil on board the Prestige.
