Ifølge de seneste rapporter er omkring 30 mil lioner mennesker på det kontinent nu udsat for sultens og tørkens hærgen.
This is wholly in accord with the Commission's declarations in support of en hanced dialogue between the social partners in Europe.
Denne eksplosion af menneskelig elendighed har fået hundred tusinder af mennesker i Fællesskabet til at sende enorme kontante beløb til hjælpeorganisationer og også til at kræve, at Europas politiske instituioner reagerer med større ge nerøsitet, større fart og større effektivitet i den kamp på liv og død, som millioner af mennesker står over for.
But more than that, it accords with the determination of trade unions in the north to see fair labour standards in the south so as to ensure that the competition against their members' jobs is not based on exploitation whether in respect of wages or conditions of employment.
Jeg er stolt over at kunne rose personalet i Kom missionen, som arbejder så længe og så hårdt for at bringe hjælp.
As is stated in the Brandt report, to achieve these ends trade unionism must be allowed and encouraged to develop as an active and positive force in the industries of the south.
Jeg roser også de mange hjælpeorganisationer, heriblandt Médecins sans frontière, War on Want og mange flere, som omsætter almindelige menneskers spontane gavmildhed til håndgribelig hjælp.
You know, of course, how much the Commission has done in the past to give practical support to anything which might encourage a conceptual, technical or financial input from business or industry. But of
Jeg roser også alle dem, som har givet så meget og så uselvisk gennem de mange hjælpeorganisationer, og de projekter, som er blevet sat i gang for
In my view, we do need to take a constantly evolving overall view of all these elements together, each being interconnected. In any case, that
I overensstemmelse med det, hr. Delors sagde til Parlamentet i sin januartale, må Det europæiske Fællesskab her og nu erklære ubetinget krig mod fattigdommen i udviklingslandene.
In line with what President Delors said to this Parlia­ment in his January address, the European Com­munity must here and now declare unconditional war on poverty in the developing world.
Det har været holdningen hos de fleste af dem, der har deltaget i debatten.
That has been the view of most of those who have spoken in this debate.
Vi står stadig kun ved starten af krigen mod fattigdommen.
We are still only at the beginning of the war against poverty.
Som adlai Stevenson engang sagde: »En rejse på tusind mil begynder med et enkelt skridt «.
As Adlai Stevenson once said: 'The journey of a thousand leagues begins with a simple step'.
Så vi må aldrig over se en fredsindsats, som er inden for rækkevidde, hvor lille den end måtte være.
So we must never neglect any work of peace within our reach, however small that may be.
Det er Kommissionens ind stilling, og jeg håber derfor, at dagens afstemning i Parlamentet vil henlede medlemsstaternes parlamenters opmærksomhed på de mest karakteristiske træk ved Lomé III og anspore dem til snarest at ratificere konventionen.
That is the will of the Commission, and I hope therefore that today's vote of this House will draw the attention of the par­liaments of Member States to the most outstanding features of Lomé HI and encourage them to ratify the Convention promptly.
Vi går til afstemning.
We shall now pro­ceed to the vote.
Punkt 11 — Ænfringsforslag nr. 8
Paragraph 11 —Amendment No 8
Endelig vil jeg tage fat på budgettet for Lomé III.
I turn finally to the question of the Lomé III budget.
De gør helt rigtigt opmærksom på, at konventionens finansielle ressourcer ikke når op på, hvad kommissionen fandt ønskeligt, samtidig med at man erkender, at Fællesskabets og dets medlemsstaters indsats i den henseende langt overgår den nuværende beklagelige tendens i nord-syd-dialogen.
You point out correctly that the Convention's finan­cial resources fall short of what the Commission :hought desirable, while acknowledging that the per­:ormance of the Community and its Member States in :his respect compares most favourably with the present ­egrettable trend in North­South relations.
Det er derfor forståeligt, at De opfordrer til at overveje muligheden for en forhøjelse af Lomé-budgettet.
Under­¡tandably then, you call for consideration to be given ;o the possibility of an increase in the Lomé budget.
Jeg tror da heller ikke, det er forslagsstillerens formål, og hvis han der for vil være villig til mellem ordene »samarbejde med « at indsætte » bl.a. «, vil jeg kunne acceptere ændringsforslaget.
But the unpleasant fact of if e that all of us have to face is that Member States ind indeed others both in East and West are not likely :o enable aid to be increased in the near future.
Vi er glade for, at Parlamentet har peget på den betydning, Lomé III tillægger menneskerettighederne og afskaffelsen af alle former for diskrimination, som forkvakler menneskets personlighed og er et angreb på menneskelig værdighed.
We are pleased that Parliament has indicated the importance attached by Lomé III to human rights and the elimination of discrimination in all its forms warp­ing as it does the human personality and assaulting the dignity of mankind.
Fru De Backer-Van Ocken og fru Rabbethge talte om, hvorledes diskrimination er et angreb på kvinders rettigheder.
Mrs De Backer­Van Ocken and Mrs Rabbethge referred to the way in which discrimi­nation attacks the rights of women.
Formanden. — Det giver også mig et lille problem, hr. Cohen.
I fully accord with the views that they have uttered.
Wurtz (COM). - (FR) Hr. formand, gruppen af kommunister og beslægtede stemmer for Cohen-betænkningen, da mange af dens synspunkter er sammenfaldende med gruppens.
Mr Cohen (S), rapporteur. — (NL) Mr President, I have something of a problem with this amendment because, if it is adopted as it now stands, it would mean that the Community should pursue its action only with the populations concerned and not through non­governmental organizations.
Hr. Trivelli har allerede talt derom, så det skal jeg ikke vende tilbage til.
The governments would then be simply ignored.
Min personlige holdning er, at tiden er kommet, hvor vi ikke længere har lov til at krybe i skjul bag ord.
Nor do I think that is what the author of the amendment intends.
Men i en situation, hvor nye udfordringer dukker op næsten daglig, er der ikke plads til selv
If he agrees to the insertion of 'among others' after 'contacts with', I can accept the amendment.
jumbura, og således som formanden for udvalget om udvikling og samarbejde meget formålstjenligt gentog for lidt siden.
I also hope that the national parliaments will ratify the Convention as quickly as possible, but that they will also consider it carefully.
Endelig vil jeg sige, at vi inden for det kulturelle samarbejde har været foregangsmænd.
My friend, Renzo Trivelli, has already made this clear so that there is no need for me to say anything more about it.
Det skal dog siges, at undervisningspolitikken i nogle af medlemsstater ne går stik imod det, vi onsker.
I also believe that if we ask for increased funds for the Lomé Convention, this should also be a matter for reflection by each national parliament since none of our countries has as yet reached the United Nations goal of donating 0.7% of the GNP in development aid.
Især i Belgien gøres studerende fra udviklingslandene...
Lomé III has clearly failed to counterbalance the attitude both of the Community and most of the Member States which is in many ways prejudicial to the interests of developing countries, including those of the ACP.
Den indeholder positive forpligtelser, hvoraf en del er uden fortilfælde, som forpligtelsen til at arbejde på stabilisering af råvarepriserne.
Nonetheless, it must be said that in certain Community countries education policy is exactly the opposite of what we wish.
Det er så vor opgave for vor del at bidrage til den faktiske overholdelse deraf.
In Belgium, in particular, students from the
Gruppen af kommunister og beslægtede vil bestræbe sig derpå.
President. — Mrs Dury, I am sorry, we have got to be very strict on the time.
Formanden. — Fru Dury, jeg beklager, men vi er nødt til at se meget strengt på tiden, Jeg er meget ked af det — men nu er det slut.
It is now up to us to play our part in ensuring that these commitments are kept. We in the Communist Group will play our part.
Jeg vil gerne henstille til dem, der har stemmeforklaringer, om venligst at holde sig inden for tids fristen.
Could I appeal to those who have got explanations of vote to keep within the time limit, please.
For øvrigt ville det være en naturlig følge af gen nemførelsen af Lomé III, at Fællesskabet satte energisk ind på en nedbringelse af AVS-landenes forfærdelige forgældelse, selv om dette spørgsmål ikke falder direkte ind under konventionen.
A useful corollary to Lomé III would be for the Community to take positive steps to curb the frightening rise in the indebtedness of ACP countries, even if this is not directly part of the Convention.
I denne forbindelse bør der erindres om de katastrofale virkninger af dollarens og rentesatsernes stigning for vore partneres økonomi, idet nemlig forrentningen af gælden sluger næsten en tredjedel af deres eksportindtægter.
We should bear in mind the disastrous effect of the increase in the value of the dollar and high interest rates on the ACP economies which has reached the point where debtservicing absorbs almost one-third of their export earnings.
Og endelig for blot at tage et enkelt punkt, som AVS-landene benytter som prøve af vor troværdighed og vort samarbejde, er sporgsmålet om Fællesskabets forbindelse med apartheid-styret fremdeles uløst.
Finally, to turn to just one point which the ACP States regard as a test of credibility where our cooperation is concerned, the question of relations between the Community and the apartheid regime is still very much alive.
Det paritetiske udvalg har fremsat udtrykkelige anmodninger i denne sag. Hvortil vi henviste i vort ændringsforslag, og vi kan kun beklage den kynisme, hvormed Parlamentets højrefløj forkastede det.
The Joint Committee put forward explicit requests on this matter which we referred to in our amendment and we can only regret the cynicism with which it was rejected by the right in this Parliament.
Den seneste tids hændelser i Sydafrika gør kun dette krav endnu mere bydende og min fordømmelse af køjrefløjens holdning endnu mere formel.
Recent events in South Africa make this request all the more urgent and my denunciation of the attitude of the right all the more serious.
Seligman (ED). — (EN) Hr. formand, jeg stemmer for Cohen-beslutningen, men jeg er skuffet over, at den ikke siger mere om den tekniske og forskningsmæssige hjælp, som de afrikanske stater trænger til.
Mr Seligman (ED). — Mr President, I will vote for Cohen, but I am disappointed that it does not say more about the technical and research help which is needed by the African States.
Det afrikanske klima er af en sådan beskaffenhed, at EØF kun kan give en begrænset hjælp, fordi vort klima er helt anderledes og vi ikke har de samme problemer.
The African climate is such that the EEC can only give limited help, because our climate is completely different and we do not have the same problems.
Men Israel og Sydafrika har faktisk lignende klimatiske og tekniske forhold.
But Israel and South Africa do have similar climatic and technical conditions.
Cohen-beslutningen beskæftiger sig med tørke og ørkendannelse. Israel har en viden om at skaffe regn.
Cohen is concerned about drought and desertification.
Sydafrika har en ny afgrødeform, som passer til tørkeforhold osv. At fortsætte denne ideologiske fejde med Sydafrika er uproduktivt og uøkonomisk, og den bør ophøre.
South Africa has new crop species suitable for drought conditions and so on. To continue this doctrinaire feud with South Africa is sterile and wasteful, and it should cease.
Jeg vil i øvrigt gerne fortælle kommissæren, at jeg ikke så nogen, der sultede i Sydafrika, da jeg var der i sidste måned, og jeg var dog i Crossroads og i Soweto og mange andre steder.
I would tell the Commissioner, incidentally, that I saw no one starving in South Africa when I was there last month and I went to Crossroads and I went to Soweto and many other places.
Men hvad jeg så var, at over en million gæstearbejdere fra grænsestater fik arbejde i Sydafrika.
What I did see was over one million immigrant workers from frontier States being given jobs in South Africa.
Dury (S). — (FR) Hr. Cohen har netop forelagt en betænkning, som er afslutningen på et igennem lang tid udført arbejde i forbindelse med Lomé-konventionen.
Mr Alavanos (COM). — (GR) Mr President, Greece is not one of those counties which, as Mr Cohen him-
Wurtzs udtalelser for lidt siden.
It now remains for the Convention to be ratified as quickly as possible.
Vor ja-stemme til Cohenbetænkningen skal ikke tolkes som en accept af AVS-EØF-aftalen, men som en
The battle to ensure that it is properly implemented has begun.
Jeg vil blot gerne komme med tre hurtige kommentarer.
Debates of the European Parliament
Verbeek (ARC). — (NL) Hr. formand, ved den ende lige afstemning om denne beslutning som helhed har jeg rådet GRAEL-gruppen til hverken at stemme for eller imod, da beslutningen efter min mening på væsentlige punkter lyder alt for optimistisk og for til freds i forhold til den kaotiske situation i AVS-landene og de sparsomme midler, hvormed EF vil bekæmpe denne tilstand
Mr Verbeek (ARC). — (NL) Mr President, I have advised the Grael Group to abstain during the final vote on the resolution as a whole because I believe it sounds far too satisfied on major issues if we consider the confusion in the ACP countries and the niggardly resources with which the Community intends to cope with this situation.
Jernbanerne er for Fællesskabet af særlig stor betydning.
President. — The next item is the report (Doc.
Jeg tænker her gå mere end en million ar bejdstageres interesser, på transporten af personer og varer, der er uundværlig for Fællesskabets samlede økonomiske og samfundsmæssige funktion, og der med på jernbanernes betydning som et uundværligt element som led i gennemførelsen af det interne marked.
The favourable vote we shall cast on the Cohen report should not be seen as approval of the ACP-EEC agreement — rather the opposite, in fact — but as support for the very critical comments made by Mr Cohen and the Committee on Development.
Som følge af skikkerhed, milgøvenlighed og rationel energiforbrug adskiller jernbanetransporten sig også i positiv retning fra de andre transportsektorer.
I. a decision amending Decision 75/327/EEC on the improvement of the situation of railway undertakings and the harmonization of rules governing financial relations between such undertakings and States
Alene af alle disse årsager bør jernbanetransporten fremmes yderligere.
Mr Elliott (S). — Mr President, obviously this resolution will be carried overwhelmingly and, of course, it should be.
Det må her erkendes, at jernbanedriften på den ene side ikke kan klare sig uden finansiel støtte fra offentligheden, men at der på den anden side må forventes yderligere bestræbelser fra jernbanernes side med hensyn til at fremme den økonomiske bevidsthed og nå frem til en mere effektiv drift.
I would just like to make three quick points. First of all I hope the Commissioner, whose remarks I was very pleased to hear, will ensure that support and aid is given in the ACP countries, and in the developing countries generally, to cooperative forms of enterprise and development which have shown themselves to be particularly appropriate to developing countries, although by no means exclusively to those countries of course.
Det er derfor beklageligt, at andelen for varetransport pr. jernbane i den grad er faldet.
In the end, it was unanimously decided to approve the Commission's proposlas, with some amendments, and the motion for a resolution.
I transport udvalget talte kommissionsrepræsentanten om et fald fra 40 % til 20 % i årenes løb.
It is therefore strange that, despite the generous deadline allowed for thè tabling of amendments in the Committee on Transport and despite the unanimous decision taken, another thirteen amendments have been tabled for discussion in this plenary Assembly.
Dette sidste tal er i virkeligheden endnu ugunstigere.
Most have been tabled by the Liberals and Conservatives, who missed their chance in the Committee on Transport.
Andelen for varetransport mellem medlemsstaterne pr. jernbane beløb sig i 1984 kun til, hvorimod transporten ad landeveje beløb sig til 42% og pr. skib 43%.
I do not think this does a great deal for working methods and decision-making in this Parliament.
Heldigvis er der dog under henvisning til de tidligere nævnte fordele perspektiver for jernbanerne.
Secondly, I must say that I hope we will not be in the position of doing too little and too late as we have so often been before.
Væksten i transporten pr. jernbane er større end for de andre sektorer.
I too regret how few countries have reached the levels of aid to the Third World that we once pledged ourselves to achieve.
Transporten pr. jernbane udviste i 1984 en vækst på 14%, og for 1985 forventes der en vækst på næsten 11 %.
I am sad that my own country is giving a much smaller proportion of aid to the Third World than it did some years ago, despite the fact that it claims to be a very rich country.
Formanden. — Næste punkt på dagsordenen er betænkning (dok.
The railways are particularly important for the Community.
2-1763/84) af Visser for transportudvalget over forslag fra Kommissionen til Rådet (KOM (83) 764 endel. — dok.
It must be realized, however, that, although the railways cannot run with out financial support from governments, they must
(') Ordforeren udtalte sig desuden — IMOD ændringsforslag nr. 13, 5, 7 og 9.
I would like to see more aid go to the Indian subcontinent, for example, with which we have such close links and so many people from which are now resident in the countries of Europe.
Transportudvalget kan give sin fulde tilslutning til Kommissionens formål med dette forslag.
The rapporteur also spoke: — AGAINST Amendments Nos I to 3, 5, 7 and 9.
Visser medlemsstaterne; 3) opnåelse af finansiel ligevægt mellem jernbanevirksomhederne.
Visser it is to be found in black and white in the proposal — that, where special circumstances and specific needs require, the Member States and railway undertakings should themselves decide what measures should be taken to improve the financial situation of the rail ways.
res, hvilken vigtig rolle jernbanetransporten må spille i Fælleskabets transportsektor.
continue their efforts to promote greater cost-awareness and improve their operational efficiency.
Kommissionen opfordres da også til hurtigst muligt at fremlægge et konkret forslag til udvikling af langfristede perspektiver.
The sharp decline in the railways' share of the transport of goods is therefore to be regretted.
Dette ønske i transportudvalget finder i øvrigt fuld støtte hos den italienske transportminister, der allerede flere gange har redegjort herfor.
The Committee on Transport was told by the Commission's representative that it had fallen from 40 to 20% over the years.
Hr. formand, det er transportudvalgets enstemmige opfattelse, at Kommissionen ikke i tilstrækkelig grad tager hensyn til visse principper.
Fortunately, in view of the advantages I have just mentioned, the outlook is still good for the railways.
Således kan især persontransporten ikke udelukkende betragtes som en kom merciel aktivitet.
Transport by rail has grown at a faster rate than transport by other means, 14% in 1984, and the growth rate is expected to be almost 11% in 1985.
For det andet: ejendomsret til og forvaltning af jernbanetransportens infrastrukturer må især i de lande, hvor det for øjeblikket er tilfældet, forblive på samme hånd, hvorved det finansielle ansvar kan påhvile myndighederne.
The Commission also feels that the final decision on the transport of passengers should be left to the Member States, whereas, if the Commission's proposals are accepted, the principles of the provision of a commercial service should govern the transport of goods.
For det tredje: en kommerciel politik til finansiel sanering af jernbaner ne bør under ingen omstændigheder indebære risiko for, at svagt udviklede eller kriseramte regioner i Fællesskabet påføres yderligere byrder som følge af en forringelse af transportudbuddet.
The Council of Transport Ministers has also said that it does not want a fixed regulation or excessive interference with national powers.
Efter transportudvalgets opfattelse er det muligt at gennemføre dette, og vi forventer da også, at den foreliggende betænkning bidrager til, at kommissionsforslagene vedtages i Transportrådet, men også i de nationale parlamenter.
Its aims are: 1) the harmonization of the conditions of competition among the various transport sectors; 2) transparency in the financial situation of the railway undertakings and in relations between these undertakings and the Member States; 3) the achievement of financial balance by the railway undertakings.
Også Det økonomiske og sociale Udvalg har fremhævet disse aspekter.
I should like to refer explicitly to one point made in the motion for a resolution.
Også der er der i princippet til fredshed med Kommissionens initiativ og forslag.
It concerns the desirability or even the need for the more integral planning of the common transport policy.
Samtidig den advarsel, at der ikke må røses ved de med begrebet »offentlig myndighed« forbundne for pligtelser.
A genuine improvement in the situation of the railways will require transport planning guidelines which will make clear the important role to be played by rail transport within the Community's transport system.
Man konstaterer, at begrebet »rationalisering« er temmelig vagt formuleret af Kommissionen og advarer mod en yderligere forværring af situationen i de mindre udviklede regioner.
The Commission is therefore requested to submit as soon as possible a concrete proposal for the development of long-term planning.
Der må ligeledes tages hensyn til jernbeneselskabernes eksisterende juridiske og organisatoriske strukturer, der ikke er ens i alle medlemsstater.
This suggestion by the Committee on Transport also corresponds very closely to the idea put for ward by the Italian Transport Minister on several occasions.
Min gruppe er derfor glad for, at det Kommissionsforslag, der i dag skal drøftes og vedtages, og den af transportudvalget vedtagne Visser-betænkning på væsentlige punkter har overtaget vore krav.
Secondly, the ownership and management of railway infrastructures must remain the responsibility of a single authority, especially in countries where this is now the case, with governments possibly assuming financial responsibility.
I øvrigt mener transportudvalget ikke, at der er tale om en strid med Kommissionen, men snarere om forskelle med hensyn til, hvad der skal lægges vægt på.
We have to decide today or tomorrow on a proposal that has many technical aspects but primarily concerns a matter that has major economic and social implications.
Ved behandlingen i transportudvalget fastslog også Kommissionens repræsentanter — det står i øvrigt sort på hvidt i forslaget — at det er ønskeligt, at medlemsstaterne og jernbanevirksomhederne alt efter de særlige omstændigheder og specifikke behov selv træffer afgørelse om de foranstaltninger, der kan føre til en finansiel sanering af jernbanerne.
In the final analysis, the question is whether we are going to retain a good and efficient railway system in the Community and improve it, whether we are going to offer people who rely on public transport a high-quality service, whether we are going to exploit the advantages of rail transport, whether we are going to try to improve the financial situation of the railway and also contribute to the harmonization of the conditions of competition among the various transport sectors. tors.
