Er der tale om at udelukke de oversøiske lande og territorier fra at få del i den kommende bevilling på 7 mia. ECU til EUF? Er det rigtigt, at man har bedt Frankrig og Det forenede Kongerige om at tilvejebringe de 120 mio. ECU, der skal bruges til deres egne oversøiske territorier?
Will he please produce quickly a detailed written report to Parliament setting out in detail what he has told us today and providing costings and a clear indication of what all the countries of the international community have got to do so that we have some con crete facts to work on and on which we can base our political demands?
Kuijpers (ARC). — (NL) Jeg vil gerne høre fra hr. Pisani, om det er rigtigt, at havnene i Det røde Hav, nærmere bestemt Masar, Assab, Djibouti og Port Sudan, i modsætning til hvad han har erklæret over for vort udvalg, har kapacitet til at modtage 100 000 tons om måneden og ikke 30000 tons, således som han hævdede.
Secondly, does the Commissioner think that the Com munity could contribute not only by sending grain and dairy products, but also by sending certain Mediterranean products, such as olive oil?
Når man ser, hvordan denne hjælp er den, der gives gen nem uofficielle organisationer. Er det muligt, at kom missæren kunne give os mere præcise oplysninger om, hvor stor en del af hjælpen der gives gennem disse organisationer, og hvor stor en del der passerer gennem den offentlige etiopiske administrations ka naler?
Thirdly, in the light of the — to my mind — very use ful facts which the Commissioner mentioned concern ing the spread of the famine in Mauritania, and bear ing in mind that ecological damage is one of the main causes of famine and the evidence presented by the English churches — which shows, I think, that we cannot attribute the famine to Marx and Engels, as certain Members would wish — I would like to ask the Commissioner what assurances there are that the Community's intervention will not constitute an attempt at political exploitation of the huge problem which these countries are facing — a form of exploitation which, unfortunately, certain Members from the opposite side are demanding in an insistent and, one might say, cynical fashion.
d'Ormesson (DR). - (FR) Hr. formand, jeg skal tillade mig at stille kommissær Pisani en række spørgsmål.
Mr Antony (DR). — (FR) I would like to ask Com missioner Pisani four very brief questions.
Hvorledes kan det være, at Fællesskabet sidste år måtte afskrive 180 000 tons mælkeprodukter på de afrikanske markeder?
Firstly, of the six thousand lorries available in Addis Ababa three weeks ago, how many is the Ethiopian Government deploying to distribute food aid?
Det tredje spørgsmål drejer sig om hungersnød.
Prevention is therefore a very important issue.
Der er grund til at glæde sig over, at Fællesskabet så hurtigt har kunnet frigive 32 mio. ECU til nødhjælp til Etiopien og Sahel-landene.
We can detect emergencies by the use of satellite photographs and make central plans, but what is becoming increasingly apparent to onlookers is the need to understand the requirements of the local population, because situations differ immensely in the Sahel.
Har De, hr. Kommissær, opnået, at Lomékonventionen kommer til at omfatte investeringsgarantier fra modtagerlandenes side og ikke blot fra vores, og at der føres en indkøbspolitik, der giver førsteprioritet til indkøb af fødevarer i fællesskabslandene som mod ydelse for vore egne indkøb til rimelige priser?
Mr Turner (ED). — May I first ask the Commissioner whether he would give some guidance to Par liament before our vote in December on the budget with regard to the amendments that we have proposed to the Council budget on food aid, particularly grain?
Det første spørgsmål ligger i forlængelse af de tidlige re taleres og drejer sig om indholdet af den nye Lomé-konvention, hvis undertegnelse nu varsles til den 8. december.
Thirdly, I would like to know whether we could not give the institutions a nudge, shake off our old pedestrian ways and set up a joint civilian and military crisis team to send the emergency aid needed, using the European airborne troops whom we know we can rely on to set up aerodromes and distribution centres quickly?
Især vil jeg gerne vide, hvilken ramme fór den økonomiske støtte man regner med at nå frem til, og hvorledes disse økonomiske bidrag forde
Fourthly, I would like to know whether the Sultan of Abu Dhabi, who has just bought two airbuses to ena-
Nr. 2-319/147 d'Ormesson bidrage til at opretholde marxistiske regimer i nogle af disse lande?
No 2-319/147
Jeg vil derfor stille følgende spørgsmål:
Ministers' obstinacy in maintaining the regulation on food aid.
I kommissionsmedlem Pisanis erklæring henvises der udstandselig til, at det er uforudsigeligt, hvad der kan ske i Etiopien og Sahel-området.
Mr Griffiths (S). — Madam President, on 26 October it was announced to the press, and I was told on the telephone by a member of the Development Directorate, that 10 000 tonnes of food aid was on its way to Ethiopia.
Har kom missionsmedlemmet til hensigt at berigtige denne ubesindige udtalelse i lyset af de forhandlinger, der har fundet sted i denne sal?
All the good work of cutting through the red tape in Brussels was undermined by the Commission's lack of control of events afterwards.
Hr. Pisani gav os derefter en Uste over en række fødevareraktioner.
Secondly, will the Commission put proposals to the Agriculture Council to see how they could be more closely involved in new machinery to get this grain out of the intervention stores?
Jeg vil gerne spørge, hr. formand, hvor den store plan er blevet af, som hr. Pisani satte op som modstykke til betænkning nr. 375 fra 1981, som dengang netop blev anklaget af hr. Pisani for at være en betænkning, der udelukkende foreslog fødevarehjælp — noget, der for resten slet ikke er sandt, fordi den derimod sigtede mod nødhjælp af strukturel karakter.
Will the Commissioner undertake that in future the Commission will institute a new emergency procedure, ensuring that the immediate release and distribution of food aid will be supervised by them until it is distributed in the recipient country?
Croux (PPE). — (NL) Kommissæren har med rette henledt opmærksomheden på, at vi skal slås med den slags problemer i mange år endnu.
Mr Bersani (PPE), Chairman of the Joint ACP-EEC Committee. — (IT) Mr Pisani, do you think there is any hope, in the final phase of the Lomé Convention negotiations, of removing the cloud which is hanging over Lomé, particularly after the very disappointing way in which the Member States handled the financial issue?
Derfor er det så vigtigt at forebygge. Hvordan kan man konstatere, at der er nød?
Furthermore, do you intend to make provisions for the areas affected by drought and famine to enable the more flexible measures which I observed recently in Mali to be extended?
Man bruger satellitfotos, og man centraliserer planlægningen.
Have you given instruction for the adaptation of the normal regulations, so that they are better suited to the situation?
Det er baggrunden for den tanke, som man i den seneste tid ofte har hørt fremsat, blandt andet fra »médecins sans frontières«, at man skal sondere ter rænet nærmere og indsamle selektive data for at kun ne yde en hurtigere og mere hensigtsmæssig hjælp.
Thirdly, will the Commissioner please bear in mind yet again that this is a matter of quite unusually dramatic public interest and it is a problem in rather an unusual way — it is the better side of human nature we are seeing, I believe, in that the public actually want to participate.
Jeg finder deres hold ning meget interessant, og jeg vil gerne vide, hvad kommissæren mener om det.
They want to be involved in the distribution of European surpluses to those in the Third World who are starving.
Med hensyn til Lomé-aftalen forekommer det mig, at kommissionsmedlemmet er noget tilbageholdende, fordi han ikke nøjagtigt har sagt, på hvilket grundlag denne aftale skal gennemføres.
And that is why I particularly commend to the Commissioner the new Article 951 of the 1985 budget which received almost unanimous support in Parliament yesterday, which provides for the co-financing with non-governmental organizations of grain to be purchased in the European Community.
Vi er henvist til at læse i aviserne om tal, der nærmer sig de 7 500 mil liarder, men fra hr. Pisani har vi ikke fået at vide, om denne sum ligger i nærheden af den sum, AVS-stater-ne anmoder om, eller ej.
This, I am sure, is going to cause problems for the Commission in relation to GATT and so on but will the Commission please do all that it can to persuade its trading partners that this is a particular measure of quite an unusual nature and that, in fact, it is much more economic for the taxpayer and much more satisfactory from the point of view of public opinion to involve the non-governmental organizations in this way.
For det andet, berørte De sidste måned spørgsmålet om Portugals tiltrædelse af Fællesskabet, hvilket på virker Lomé-aftalen og den truende forskydning af den portugisiske efterspørgsel efter sukker fra ver densmarkedet til EF-markedet.
Can we not learn a lesson from what has been achieved by Nigeria which, because of its agricultural policy, is producing 30 times as much rice on the same land and in the same conditions as the other Sahel countries?
De nævnte endvidere i et brev til mig, dateret i går, at selv om Portugal køber sukker fra EF, vil det tage presset af rørsukkermarkedet.
I fact, where country X — which I would rather not name — is producing 30, Nigeria has produced 300.
Jeg er bange for, at jeg ikke er af den opfattelse, og jeg ville sætte pris på at høre Deres kom mentarer, da noget sådant blot vil øge den tilskudsberettigede kvota i EF, og en sådan forøgelse vil, er jeg sikker på, faktisk tilskynde til større produktion af C-sukker i EF, og jeg tror derfor ikke, at Portugals
I think it would be worth looking into their methods to find out if it would be possible to collaberate to produce the same sort of results.
Castle (S). — (EN) Vi er utvivlsomt alle taknemmelige for, at kommissionsmedlemmet har forelagt os denne meget detaljerede beretning her til formiddagen.
It has to be said that in crisis situations, our only experience has, to date, been negative.
Må jeg få lov til at stille Dem to spørgsmål?
We have been talking for 10 years now of task forces, agencies, special instruments.
Kan De sige os, hvad De har gjort efter Parlamentets vedtagelse den 18. oktober af et beslutningsforslag i mit og mange andres navn, hvori medlemsstaterne blev anmodet om at stille tillægsbudgettet til fødevarehjælp for 1984 til rådighed øjeblikkelig for Kommissionen, så dan at det kan udføre et effektivt nødhjælpsprogram. gram.
Could I just conclude, Madam President, by asking the Commissioner whether he is aware that this new Article 951 was inspired by the fact that on 28 August Oxfam approached the United Kingdom Intervention Board for 10 000 tonnes of grain for Ethiopia and they were actually told that no such grain was available in the United Kingdom?
Turner vil jeg gerne vide, hvilken støtte det libyske regime giver til Etiopien.
Mr Fellermaier (S). — (DE) Madam President, Com missioner Pisani said that a crisis had occurred and we had got off to a late start.
indkøb af sukker fra det europæiske marked på nogen måde vil være gavnligt for verdens rørsukkermarked. ked.
Why didn't the European Community set up an early warning system in Africa earlier to preclude any further late starts?
For det andet, mener kommissionsmedlemmet, at Fællesskabet kan yde bidrag ikke blot i form af korn og mælkeprodukter, men også i form af middelhavsprodukter som f.eks. olivenolie?
President. — Mr Cryer, at the end of the debate I informed the House that, unless Parliament decided otherwise, such a statement would not be followed by a debate but that Members may, for an additional period of 30 minutes, ask brief and precise questions to obtain explanations on specific points in the state ment.
Griffiths (S). — (EN) Fru formand, man meddelte den 26. oktober pressen, og et medlem af direktoratet for udvikling fortalte mig telefonisk, at 10 000 ton fødevarehjælp var på vej til Etiopien.
Another specific question: you were quite right to begin by speaking about the complex interplay between the Community institutions as regards emergency food aid in cases of disaster.
Samme aften, da jeg vendte tilbage fra Strasbourg til South Wales, så jeg en nyhedsudsendelse, som var optaget af et uafhængigt fjernsynsselskab, fra Rotterdams havn, hvoraf fremgik, at 7 300 ton af denne fødevarehjælp sad fast der.
However, accord ing to the Treaties, the Commission is the only institution which can propose draft legislation to the Council of Ministers and Parliament.
Jeg har foretaget forespørgsler og har fundet ud af, at denne fødevarehjælp kunne have været sendt af sted for mere end en uge siden, men det hollandske interveneringsorgan har behandlet det på en sådan måde, at denne fødevarehjælp ikke for lader Antwerpen før den 28. november.
When did your Commissioner responsible for the Budget put forward specific proposals for ridding this complex interplay of its red tape and helping the starving?
Alt det gode arbejde med at skære igennem bureaukratiet i Brüssel blev undergravet af, at Kommissionen ikke kontrollerede, hvad der derefter skete.
When was such a specific proposal put to Parliament and the Council of Ministers by the Commission?
Vil kommissionsmedlemmet påtage sig at sikre, at Kommissionen i fremtiden vil skabe en ny nødhjælpsprocedure, som sikrer at Kommissionen overvåger øjeblikkelig frigørelse og distribuering af fødevarehjælp, indtil denne er fordelt i modtagerlandet?
I would add that this evening, during the topical and urgent debate, the subject of aid to Ethiopia will be dealt with once again, and for this reason we shall now proceed normally with the agenda as approved by Par liament, and there is no way whatsoever in which I can change it.
Vi ser desværre, at visse af vore ærede kolleger fra den modsatte fløj insisterer på en kynisk måde, kunne man fristes til at sige, på at udnytte problemet politisk.
I pose the question, Mr Commissioner, because last week my colleagues and I had an opportunity to listen to the experiences of those who were out there work ing at the sharp end in Ethiopia and one of the observations made by one of the line operators was that the major problem that he had experienced in the field was that those out there who had the firsthand know ledge of what was going on and what needed to be done had not the resources available. . .
Antony (DR). — (FR) Jeg har fire korte spørgsmål til kommissær Pisani.
(The President urged the speaker to conclude)
For det første : hvor mange af de 6 000 lastbiler, der var til rådighed i Addis-Abeba for tre uger siden, har den etiopiske regering afset til transport af fødevarehjælp? hjælp?
It is going to be very difficult for many of us to explain to our constituents that because of a regulation of this Parliament there was only half an hour for questions to the person who is responsible for ensuring that aid is sent from the EEC to the part of Africa that is in need.
For det andet: hvilken politik agter Fællesskabet og de europæiske ledere at føre med henblik på at gøre op med det skyldkompleks, vi lider under, og som har fået Europa til at opgive den vejledende og hjælpende rolle, det burde have spillet i Afrika?
My question is fundamentally: Would the Commissioner agree that there is a need to review the current organizational structure to determine whether or not there is a more effective way of getting resources into the hands of the line people more quickly?
Har De givet instrukser, sådan at de normale regler bliver bedre tilpasset situationen? Jeg mener, at den erfaring, der er høstet i disse første måneder, tyder på, at man bør gå i den retning.
President. — Mrs Crawley, this debate was down on the agenda, and a good 22 speakers took part in it.
Mener De f. eks. ikke, at man bør fremhæve det, som Niger har gjort, der med sin landbrugspolitik producerer ris på den samme overflade og under de samme betingelser som de øvrige lande i Sahel-området, men får tredive gange så stort udbytte?
Mr Stewart (S). — As the Commissioner said that there is so much red tape to be cut, I would like him to say why he has not already made proposals to this House, in view of the fact of the emergency that is existing, because I find it rather strange that he comes and says that at this time?
Altså der, hvor et land » X « (som jeg ikke vil specificere nærmere) pro ducerer 30, producerer Niger 300.
And when does he expect to be able to make those proposals to this House?
Jeg synes, vi må begynde at værdsætte denne fremgangsmåde, der er et bevis på, hvordan det er muligt ved et samarbejde at opnå sådanne resultater.
And could he possibly say what action has been taken on the request made by the Socialist leaders of the parties in the Community?
Vi må faktisk konstatere, at i nødsituationer har den erfaring, vi hidtil har gjort, været negativ.
Could we therefore just ask questions and keep them short, because the reason for them is to get answers?
Vi har i årevis talt om en task force, om agenturer og særlige
Insofar as Commissioner Pisani will want to
Kongeriges interventionsorgan om 10 000 tons korn til Etiopien, og at de rent faktisk fik at vide, at dette korn ikke fandtes i Det forenede Kongerige?
President. — The Commission will reply to your request.
Vi må helt klart revidere alt det og løse op for en situation, der skyldes Ministerrådets stædige beslutning om at bibeholde bestemmelserne om fødevarehjælp.
I am instituting here and now a special procedure for parliamentary mail on specific problems cropping up from day to day in connection with drought and famine in Africa.
Fellermaier (S). — (DE) Fru formand, kommissær Pisani sagde: der er opstået en krise, vi er kommet for sent i gang.
Mr Elliott (S). — Madam President, we understood from what your colleague said at the beginning that there were 27 questioners.
Jeg vil bede ham om at forklare os det lidt nærmere. Er det de Ti's regeringer, er det Ministerrådet, er det EF-Kommissionen, et det FAO, er det de ikkestatslige organisationer?
We could have probably answered all those questions in the time that has now been taken on points of order.
Hvem er vi!? De til står over for os, at man er kommet for sent i gang.
In a way that is understandable, but the Commissioner also addressed us on the question of Lomé.
Hvorfor har Det europæsike Fællesskab så ikke etableret et varselsystem i Afrika, så man ikke mere konmer for sent i gang?
I had a question in relation to that, and there has been no opportunity to put any questions whatsoever on the Lomé Convention.
Vil Kommissionen for det andet forelægge forslag for Landbrugsrådet med henblik på at finde ud af, hvor dan man mere indgående kan beskæftige sig med nye mekanismer til at få dette korn ud af interventionslagrene? lagrene?
President. — Mr Elliott, if you remain in the Chamber, you will obtain the reply on Lomé, on which, moreover, other Members have spoken.
Spørgsmål nummer to er ganske konkret: Jeg må med rette understrege, at De i begyndelsen talte om det komplicerede sammenspil mellem De europæiske Fællesskabers institutioner, når det drejer sig om fødevarehjælp under katastrofer.
As regards human rights, two things were involved: the inclusion of the principle of basic human rights in the preamble to the Convention, and an analysis of the concept of dignity, including when it is threatened by the apartheid system.
Hvornår har EF-Kommissionen forelagt Parlamentet og Ministerrådet et sådant konkret for slag?
The preamble refers to the basic human rights as defined in the UN Charter, and a joint declaration appended to Article 4 of the Convention states that apartheid is an attack on human dignity.
Kilby (ED). — (EN) Er kommissionsmedlemmet enig med mig i, at der foreligger et administrativt problem mellem den centrale administration i Brussel, som kontrollerer ressourcerne, og de mennesker, der ud fører det praktiske arbejde på stedet?
Mr Marshall (ED). — Madam President, I find it quite absurd that when five Members could have spoken for a minute and a half each, we have actually debated points of order.
For det tredje vil jeg endnu en gang minde kommissionsmedlemmet om, at dette er en sag af helt usædvanlig dramatisk offentlig interesse, og at det er et usædvanligt problem, jeg tror, at det er den gode side af den menneskelige natur, der her kommer til ud tryk, når offentligheden rent faktisk ønsker at deltage.
Thirdly, as regards dialogue and effective action, we adopted a specific approach to the problem and there were some very serious discussions because our ACP partners thought their sovereignty was under attack.
De ønsker at kunne betragte interventionslagrene rundt omkring i Europa, hvoraf mange er beliggende i ret fattige byer, som overflødighedshorn, og ikke som symboler på manglende effektivitet.
We, on the other hand, tried to show them that this was an attempt to arrive at an equal contract between two parties with mutual commitments, and finally, there was the issue of dialogue which we envisaged as being with our partners on such issues as planning, day-to-day management and use of the Stabex funds.
De ønsker at få kornet ud af lagrene.
An accord thus came about which, in substance, is totally satisfactory in our eyes.
De ønsker at deltage i distribueringen af europæiske overskud til de sultende i den tredje verden.
As President, I assume responsibility for conducting the proceedings in this House and trust that the House will wish to cooperate with the Chair.
Stewart når forventer han at kunne forelægge sådanne forslag for Parlamentet?
I do not yet know how or where, but we will make these proposals what ever difficulties we encounter in the process.
Og kan han muligvis fortælle os, hvad man har gjort i forbindelse med de anmodninger, der er fremsat af de socialistiske partiers ledere i Fællesskabet?
While we are somewhat less worried about the coming three months, we are greatly concerned about the following months and we aim to face up to this problem.
Med hensyn til Kommissionen bliver svaret selv følgelig givet af det kompetente medlem af denne, uden at vi kan kræve, at et bestemt kommissions medlem kommer til stede.
I would now like to reply to the questions about famine and drought by stating first of all that we are all responsible when it comes to bureaucracy.
Så kan vi ikke blot stille kortfattede spørgsmål, da vi jo stiller dem for at få svar?
In my report I did not mention railway transport possibilities because there were no locomotives.
Kan kommissionsmedlem Pisani ikke, hvis han ønsker at besvare vore spørgsmål, og hvis han ikke kan besvare dem alle mundtligt, besvare dem senere skriftligt?
I spoke of about 500 lorries, but in actual fact over the weeks — by dint of negotiations with the Ethiopian government, with the Assab port authorities, and by looking for capacity elsewhere, at other ports — we have managed to come up with new resources which we did not have a few weeks ago.
Cryer (S). — (EN) Indlæg til forretningsordenen, fru formand, mon De kan fortælle mig, om De kan an vende Deres beføjelser i henhold til artikel 56 stk. 2 ifølge hvilken formanden har ret til at ændre dagsordenen, således at spørgetiden i dag kan forlænges end nu et par minutter, så alle, som er meget bekymrede om Ethiopien og har presserende spørgsmål, kan stil le dem til kommissionsmedlemmet?
Only two States replied on time; but I must say that after having this very restrictive attitude, all the States took part in the 13 November meeting, and in a very positive manner, giving all the information we needed. They responded to our appeals when specific requirements were beyond our reach — whether lorries or medicines.
Elliott (S). - (EN) Fru formand, på baggrund af det, Deres kollega sagde i begyndelsen, forstod vi, at der var 27 medlemmer, der ønskede at stille spørgsmål.
Thus, as regards lorries, whereas I spoke earlier of 500 there are now between 1 000 and 1 500, which is an adequate number.
