The President of Algeria addresses the House
Skridt tilbage i historien Jens-Peter BONDE fra JuniBevægelsen pegede på, at man i Laeken lagde op til, at EU skulle nærme sig borgerne, men i Giscard d'Estaings udkast skabes der større afstand til borgerne .
President Bouteflika then drew attention to the significance of the new EU/Algeria Association Agreement signed in Valencia on 22 April 2002, which he saw as bringing in a new era to European relations with his country based on sustainable development, solidarity and closer co-operation.
Han er en fransk solkonge , som handler i strid med de demokratiske regler, og han konkluderer gerne imod Konventets flertal.
It would, he said, firmly cement Algeria's economic links with the EU and, indeed, offer the opportunity for deepening political dialogue.
Forfatningsudkastet er et stort skridt tilbage i historien .
He pointed out, however, the difficulties faced in Algeria and the Mediterranean region as a whole in moving towards an economy based on free trade.
Giscard flytter magt fra vælgerne og de folkevalgte til embedsmænd og fra den lovgivende til den udøvende magt.
This had enormous implications for the traditional economic and social system in the country and he looked forward to a smooth transition to a market economy.
Der flyttes magt fra levende demokratier til Kommissionen, Europa-Parlamentet og de største EU-landes statsministre - og især til den fransk-tyske akse.
He drew attention to the $7bn programme designed to bring this about over a four-year period, but did not underestimate the size of the task ahead.
Bonde mente, at forfatningsudkastet skaber gode jobs til afgående statsministre som Blair, Fischer og Aznar.
Unfortunately, he added, so far EU budgetary aid to Algeria had not brought about expected improvements.
Ifølge udkastet kan 13 statsministre nedstemme de 12 andre, og de 3 største kan nedstemme de 22 andre.
Indeed, he added, in many ways the Algerian people, faced with natural disasters and enduring violence brought about by terrorism, felt neglected by the international community.
Vælgerne og de folkevalgte mister magt over lovene, og hovedparten af lovene træffes bag lukkede døre.
It was vital to tackle the root causes of such mindless acts, if a long lasting peace and stability were to be achieved.
Lokalregeringerne bliver magtesløse .
In this sense he underlined the need to tackle poverty.
EU-Parlamentet får medbestemmelse, men ikke så meget magt, som de nationale parlamenter taber.
Nevertheless, he expressed optimism that, after 12 years of uncertainty, the situation was now improving and prospects for the country were no longer bleak.
Vælgerne er således meget langt væk i forfatningsudkastet, sluttede Bonde.
The continent of Africa, he detected, was now in a position to move forward after previous failures and mistakes.
MEP’ernes statut/vedtægt:Endelig enighed om en statut?

Godkendelse af medlemmernes statut i Europa-Parlamentet
Report on Turkey's application for membership of the European Union
Med 294 stemmer mod 171 - medens 59 undlod at stemme - vedtog Europa-Parlamentet betænkningen af den tyske socialdemokrat Willi ROTHLEY om et udkast til statut for Europa-Parlamentets medlemmer - MEP'erne.
The European Parliament welcomed the progress Turkey has made towards fulfilling the political criteria for EU membership but said that the conditions for the opening of accession negotiations were not yet in place.
Med 360 stemmer mod 137 - medens 21 undlod at stemme - besluttede man, at MEP'ernes løn/vederlag skal andrage 50 % af den grundløn, som en dommer ved EU-Domstolen i Luxembourg oppebærer, dvs. ca. 8.500 euro pr. måned.
Effective access should be ensured for all citizens, irrespective of their origin, to radio and television broadcasting and education in Kurdish and other non-Turkish languages.
Med 368 stemmer mod 133 - medens 10 undlod at stemme - vedtog EP, at der skal betales EU-skat af vederlaget på de samme vilkår, som gælder for EU-tjenestemænd .
While Turkey faced the challenge of fulfilling the same criteria as previous candidates for accession, Mr Oostlander was at pains to point out that there were particular problems in the country, especially over such issues as respect for human rights and indeed civic rights in general.
Medlemsstaterne ret til at tage hensyn til vederlaget ved fastsættelse af beskatningen af anden indkomst berøres ikke heraf.
Furthermore, the continuing strong presence of the Army in government, as well as limitations on freedoms for ethnic minorities, continued to pose a problem.
MEP'ernes løn skal - ifølge udkastet til vedtægt - afholdes over EU-budgettet.
It was, he said, vital for the Army to step back and allow a civilian government.
Dette forslag blev vedtaget med 282 stemmer mod 191.
He called on Council to take a clear line on its strategy for negotiations with Turkey.
Forkastede ændringsforslag Et ændringsforslag af Jens-Peter BONDE fra JuniBevægelsen blev forkastet.
On the positive side, he welcomed the new Constitution and the Army's intention to withdraw from political life.
Bonde foreslog, at "Medlemmerne kan med hensyn til vederlag, overgangsgodtgørelse samt alders- og efterladtepension vælge at være omfattet af den hidtidige nationale ordning i hele mandatperioden, men det blev altså forkastet af EP.
At the same time, it was important to monitor developments here and indeed progress in developing an impartial civil service and judiciary.
I det forkastede ændringsforslag fastslog man, at "Medlemsstaterne kan indføre yderligere beskatning, såfremt de har underrettet Europa-Parlamentet om disse planer inden Europa-valget i 2004; dog er enhver form for dobbeltbeskatning udelukket".
The EU had committed substantial funds to help with pre-accession aid and enable Turkey to take on board the " acquis " Now it was important for Turkey to respect the political criteria for membership as laid down at Copenhagen and, while he acknowledged that progress had been made, felt it was important to lay down just what should be expected from Turkey by 2004.
Dette ændringsforslag blev forkastet med snæver margen , idet 235 stemte for, 259 imod - medens 28 MEP'er undlod at stemme.
In addition, there were question marks over whether there was in fact respect for freedom of speech and full recognition of the rights of minorities.
Han understregede, at statutten ikke kun må dreje sig om penge, og at medlemmernes skatteordninger ikke må overlades til de enkelte medlemsstater.
He acknowledged, however, there had been an improvement in Greek/Turkish relations, although he emphasised his concern to see those responsible for criminal activities to be brought before the Hague Tribunal.
Formålet med statutten er at skabe "et rigtigt parlament", hvor vi viser, at vi er et fællesskab og ikke blot en international organisation.
He said it would be important to clarify the political timetable for Turkey and extend the current customs union between the EU and Turkey.
Hvis vi ikke kan nå til enighed nu efter et kvart århundrede, hvornår skal vi så nå til enighed, spurgte Rothley.
He stated that the Commission had decided to increase aid to Turkey by some €1.5 billion from 2004 to 2006.
Det er Kommissionens målsætning, at man når frem til en aftale, som kan accepteres af Rådet, ellers bliver der nemlig ingen aftale.
The Commissioner also stated that a new partnership agreement between the EU and Turkey was under negotiation.
Under ordførerrunden sagde den tyske kristelige demokrat Klaus-Heiner LEHNE , at Rothley i de sidste 5 år har udvist en uendelig tålmodighed - og at man nu er nået frem til en velafbalanceret vedtægt.
The Commissioner welcomed the recent progress on human rights issues in Turkey and stated that a clear a decision would be taken on Turkey's readiness for opening negotiations in December 2004.
Man er nået frem til et kompromis om halvdelen af en EU-dommerløn, hvilket sådan cirka svarer til den løn østrigske, franske, britiske og tyske nationale parlamentarikere får, men det er mindre end hvad italienske parlamentarikere får i det italienske parlament.
However, the Commissioner underlined that several areas remained concerning; citing the use of torture, the right to meet and speak freely, and the role of the military within politics.
Vi har brug for en fremadskuende statut, som har til formål at skabe samme betingelser for alle MEP'er, sluttede Lehne.
He said, despite the constitutional reforms, attitudes of the political establishment and judges had not necessarily changed.
Den spanske socialist Manuel MEDINA ORTEGA var enig i, at der er tale om en velafbalanceret statut, som støttes af et stort flertal i retsudvalget.
The Commissioner also drew attention to the recent raids carried out by members of the Anti-Terror Forces, accompanied by the Prosecutor of the Ankara State Security Court, against the headquarters and the branch office of the Human Rights Association (IHD) in Ankara.
Også han understregede, at EP er mere end en international organisation, og at statutten bør være en del af EU - og ikke de nationale systemer.
On Cyprus, the Commissioner stated that he fully supported the plan drawn up by the UN and hoped that Cyprus would be able to join the EU as a single island by 1 May 2004.
MEP'erne er "historien" Den britiske liberale Diana WALLIS fastslog, at pressen alt for ofte gør MEP'erne - og ikke deres arbejde - til selve "historien" , og det bør vi komme bort fra.
He called on all parties to show the necessary flexibility and stated that timetables for both Turkey and Cyprus were very important and should be respected.
Wallis mente, at kompromiset om lønniveauet var acceptabelt, og at vi bør have en fælles vedtægt for alle MEP'er.
Geoffrey VAN ORDEN (Eastern), for the EPP-ED group, stated that it was due time to give a strong favourable political signal to Turkey, since the country had carried out many important constitutional reforms.
Han mente, at der var en anden "dagsorden" - nemlig medlemmernes personlige økonomiske interesser.
He underlined that the " door to Turkey's accession was open but the road would be rocky ".
Ole Krarup pegede på, at EP ikke udviser en imponerende demokratisk legitimitet, fx. var valgdeltagelse i 1999 på under 35 % i Sverige og under 24 % i England.
The human rights and political situation, he remarked, had improved considerably and this was thanks to, to a certain degree, the criticism from the Commission over Turkey's past record.
Krarup mente, at statutten ville være umulig at forklare i de nordiske lande, hvor man ikke vil kunne forklare, hvorfor MEP'erne skal have højere lønninger end de nationale parlamentarikere .
For the Liberals, Bob van den BOS (ELDR, NL) commented that, while Turkey may have won the Eurovision Song Contest, it certainly had not done enough to win the European integration contest.
Det var også kritisabelt, at den nationale beskatning af medlemmernes løn var gledet ud.
In this sense, he drew attention to deficiencies in the area of democracy, human rights and the rule of law.
Den britiske grønne Neil MacCORMICK mente, at det var nødvendigt med et fælles vederlag med et gennemskueligt godtgørelsessystem, medens den hollandske EDD'er Rijk van DAM betvivlede, at man kunne nå til enighed om en statut for MEP'erne.
He was another speaker to support the downgrading of the role of the Army and indeed felt the Security Council, dominated by the Army, should be dismantled.
Han mente dog, at det var rimeligt med samme løn til MEP'erne, og han fastslog, at det parlamentariske arbejde skal stilles over de personlige interesser.
At the same time, he underlined the need to support the reforms introduced by Prime Minister Erdogan and he looked forward to the implementation of commitments regarding freedom of expression and respect for the Kurdish language.
Tirsdag den 3. juni 2003 vedtog EP et udkast til statut for Europa-Parlamentets medlemmer.
He took the view that Turkey would not be joining the EU in the near future and looked forward to a reassessment in the year 2004.
Og onsdag den 4. juni bekræftede man sin beslutning ved at vedtage beslutningsforslaget i betænkningen af den tyske socialdemokrat Willi ROTHLEY .
For the GUE/NGL Feleknas UCA (D) too took up human rights issues and the situation of the Kurds and Leyla Zana still in prison.
Beslutningsforslaget blev vedtaget med 323 stemmer mod 167 - medens 36 undlod at stemme.
She also felt there was a need to look again at the ban on the political movement HADEP.
Punkt 5 sløjfet Ved afstemningen fjernede EP punkt 5 i beslutningsforslaget.
The EU should be positive in saying that it wants the reform process to succeed.
Inden afstemningen havde den franske grønne Daniel COHN-BENDIT foreslået, at Rothley-betænkningen skulle sendes tilbage til fornyet udvalgsbehandling.
Michael CASHMAN (PES, West Midlands) felt that the debate on Turkey's application was surrounded in hypocrisy, since if the rules on membership of the Union would be applied strictly, then not only Turkey but also many of the current Member States would not be able to accede to the Union.
Forslaget blev dog forkastet.
He stressed that it was important to support the " reformers " in Turkey.
Ole KRARUP fra Folkebevægelsen mod EU foreslog, at præsidiets beslutning om nye regler for rejsegodtgørelser skulle have samme juridiske gyldighed som statutten.
He stated that he had recently visited Turkey and he felt that many politicians in Turkey sensed that the EU did not want Turkey to join.
Dette forslag kom dog ikke til afstemning, da EP som nævnt sløjfede punkt 5 i beslutningsforslaget.
He said the sentiment of the debate had only served to underline this feeling.

Tyrkiets ansøgning om EU-medlemskab
Motions for resolutions - Meeting of the Troika with the countries participating in the Stability Pact for South-Eastern Europe
Det fastslår Europa-Parlamentet i en betænkning af den hollandske PPE'er Arie OOSTLANDER om Tyrkiet ansøgning om EU-medlemskab.
Parliament warned, however, that integration of the Stability Pact countries would take considerable time and would be evaluated on the basis of the Copenhagen economic and political criteria.
På den baggrund fastslår EP, at der ikke principielt kan rejses indvendinger mod, at der gives EU-medlemskab til Tyrkiet.
Serbia and Montenegro, Bosnia-Herzegovina and Croatia were asked to reach an agreement for a complete return of refugees, while Bosnia-Herzegovina was encouraged to pass the necessary legislation for the protection of minorities.
Oostlander-betænkningen blev vedtaget med 216 stemmer mod 75 - medens 38 undlod at stemme.
The Assembly of Kosovo was called upon to act in accordance with the reconciliatory spirit and letter of UN Security Council Resolution 1244.
EP understreger dog, at der er tale om en langvarig reformproces , hvor Tyrkiet stilles over for afgørende valg, og at europæisk bistand til denne proces vil være påkrævet.
And measures should be taken to seriously enhance female participation in politics and the parliament.

Det drejer sig bl.a. om overtrædelser af menneskerettigheder og borgerlige rettigheder, hærens fremtrædende rolle, undertrykkelsen af kulturelle og etniske mindretal m.m.
MEPs are deeply concerned about the appalling violence and the persistent conflict in Aceh.
Oostlander pegede på Cypern-problemet, som han havde håbet på, at Tyrkiet ville have bidraget til at løse.
The House urges the Indonesian Government and the Free Aceh Movement (GAM) to return to the negotiating table.
Han stillede også spørgsmålet om, hvem vi egentlig bør tale med i Tyrkiet, skal det være regeringen, parlamentet eller generalerne?
MEPs, in particular, deplore restrictions on freedom of the press provided for under martial law.
Den græske Europaminister Tatsos GIANNITSIS understregede, at Tyrkiet er et vigtigt partnerland for EU.
The House also calls on the Malaysian Government to take all requisite measures to ensure that its territory is not used as a base for guerrilla operations.
Han mindede om, at EU's stats- og regeringschefer i december 1999 i Helsinki havde besluttet at gøre Tyrkiet til kandidatland, men at man skulle overholde Københavns-kriterierne.
The House urges the Indonesian Government to find a peaceful solution to the situation in Papua province to protect any populations at risk and to invite the UN Special Rapporteurs on torture to visit the Indonesian provinces concerned.
Giannitsis opfordrede Tyrkiet til at fortsætte reformbestræbelserne.

Positive signaler!
Burma - call to release Aung San Suu Kyi
Han sluttede med at understrege, at Tyrkiet har krav på en objektiv og fair behandling.
MEPs adopted a joint resolution on Zimbabwe with 78 votes in favour, six against, and one abstention.
Van Orden mente, at Oostlander-betænkningen fokuserer for meget på det negative, og det står mellem linierne, at Tyrkiet ikke er særligt velkommen i EU .
The House calls for primary law to lay down the precise place for this method among the various Community instruments and to stipulate how the various political and social actors are to take part in it.
Der er således ingen anerkendelse af de positive fremskridt i Tyrkiet.
The open co-ordination method is currently used in around a dozen areas, although the Treaty only explicitly provides for it in the area of formulating EU employment strategy.
Døren er åben, men der ligger en lang og besværlig vej forude for Tyrkiet.
Parliament also calls for the social partners to be consulted at European and national level.
Den hollandske liberale Bob van den BOS mente også, at der var tale om en udmærket betænkning, medens den tyske PDS'er Feleknas UCA havde ønsket en klarere kritik.
Like the Commission in its proposal, the House highlights the importance of boosting job creation and fostering entrepreneurship.
Hun håbede, at Oostlander-betænkningen kunne bidrage til en mere positiv politik i Tyrkiet.
It adds, however, that it is important not only to create jobs but also to create better jobs.
Den hollandske grønne Joost LAGENDIJK håbede, at reformerne i Tyrkiet ville føre til succes - dvs. EU-medlemskab - medens den hollandske EDD'er Bastiaan BELDER - ligesom flere andre talere - understregede, at der var tale om en afbalanceret betænkning.
MEPs emphasise the importance of local and regional employment markets, which tend to be less sensitive to short-term economic cycles and macro-economic fluctuations, and call for active measures to reduce local and regional disparities.
Brystkræft i EU:Reducere brystkræftdødelighed!
Promotion of employee participation in financial decisions
Ordfører: Karin JÖNS (PSE, D)
Winfried MENRAD (EPP-ED, D)
Brystkræft er i dag den hyppigste kræftsygdom hos kvinder.
Parliament adopted an own-initiative resolution on employee participation in financial decisions.
Ifølge WHO fik mere end 216.000 kvinder i EU i 2000 konstateret brystkræft, og mere end 79.000 døde som følge heraf.

Members' Statute - Resolution adopted
så der i hele EU sikres den bedst mulige kvalitet inden for behandling af brystkræft.
The legislative resolution on the Members Statute was adopted by 323 to 167 and 36 abstentions.
Reducere brystkræftdødelighed!
The resolution adopted by Parliament calls on the Council to give its approval to the Statute for Members.
Af betænkningen fremgår det, at helbredelseschancerne for brystkræft ligger på 90 %, hvis sygdommen konstateres på et tidligt tidspunkt og behandles korrekt.
Before the vote, Mr Rothley stated that Council would be able to examine the tax arrangements for the statute, including the possibility of introducing national taxation in some Member States.
- "Hvert 2 ½ minut stilles diagnosen brystkræft i EU" .
The British Conservatives, Labour Group and Liberal Democrats voted against the resolution on the Members' Statute.
Mammografiscreening kan reducere brystkræftdødeligheden med 35 %, og man bør indføre en fælles europæisk strategi for brystkræftbekæmpelse, og målet er, at vi kan reducere brystkræftdødeligheden med 25 % i 2008, sagde Karin Jöns.
Parliament has been campaigning ever since its first direct elections in 1979 for such a Statute, which will govern MEPs' legal position and their general terms of employment.
"Europa mod kræft" Den græske EU-kommissær Anna DIAMANTOPOULOU roste Karin Jöns for hendes stærke engagement og hendes fremragende betænkning.
The decision contains the text of a draft Statute for MEPs and thus covers a number of highly contested issues.
Hun mente, at 25.000 kvinder kunne reddes årligt, hvis alle kvinder i EU blev brystscreenet.
At present, the figure would be around € 8.500 per month (or € 102.000 per year).
I 2004 vil Kommissionen fremlægge en rapport "Europa mod kræft" , hvor man bl.a. går ind for mere konsekvent udveksling af bedste praksis, så landene kan lære af hinanden, ligesom man bør samarbejde om forskning og teknologisk udstyr.
It therefore voted to exclude the possibility of levying a national tax as it wishes to keep all options open and " wait and see " how things develop in Council.
