Mener Kom missionen ikke, at dette skyldes, at de ledende ansatte i regeringsdepartementeme og de nationale institutioner for det meste er mænd, at de undertiden er af den indstilling, at kvinder ikke er i stand til at indgive et projekt, der er værd at beskæftige sig med, eller at få held med det, og at de en gang imellem, for ikke at udtrykke det skarpere, tillægger den mand, der virker til fremme for et sådant projekt, større betydning og lytter mere til ham end til kvinderne?
In particular, would he admit that the recent allocation of money from the Social Fund's anti-poverty programme had little or nothing to do with obvious levels of deprivation in areas of the Community and thus excluded County Durham in England, one of the Community's most deprived areas?
Kan Kommissionen oplyse antallet af projekter vedrørende kvinder, som medlemsstaterne har forelagt, og som af social fonden blev godkendt som støtteberettigede, eftersom det er blevet konstateret, at Tyskland i et givet år modtog 57% afalle midlerne under dette budget fulgt af Frankrig og Italien, me dens Irland, Belgien, Nederlandene og Det forenede Kongerige kun modtog ubetydelige beløb?
The application by the Broadwater Farm Youth Asso­ciation in the London Borough of Haringey for assist­ance from the Social Fund has been refused. In view of the difficulties of those living there and the pioneering work of the Youth Association can the Commission explain this decision?
Sutherland. — (EN) Det ærede medlem vil vist for stå, at jeg finde det vanskeligt at gætte på, hvorfor det samlede antal ansøgninger på kvinders vegne har været mindre tilfredsstillende.
Mr Sutherland. — I most definitely do not agree that arbitrary criteria or political considerations enter into an evaluation by the services of the Commission.
Der er absolut mange gode ideer, der er foreslået af kvindeorganisationer i hele Fællesskabet, og man må håbe, at der vil blive lagt mere vægt på dette aktivitetsområde fra ansøgernes, nemlig medlemsstaternes side fremover.
It has not been the case on any occasion as far as I am aware during the period of office of this Commission, or indeed of any other one for that matter.
Sutherland, medlem af Kommissionen. — (EN) Kom missionen vil give det ærede medlem komplette tabeller,der viser fordelingen i 1984, Det seneste år, som vi har fuldstændige tal for, af de bevillinger fra den europæiske socialfond, der blev tildelt projekter vedrørende henholdsvis kvinder og mænd.
Mr Sutherland, Member of the Commission. — The operation which the honourable Member refers to concerned 150 young people living in Harringay, an area of high unemployment.
Tabellerne angiver ikke antallet af projekter vedrørende kvinder, da det på grund af, at visse medlemsstater ind sender deres ansøgninger i grupper, er mere hensigtsmæssigt at anføre de godkendte beløb eller antallet af begunstigede i hver slags projekt.
Unfortunately, the appli­cation did not meet the criteria for priority funding laid down in the guidelines for the management of the European Social Fund which were in force in 1985. As an eligible but nonpriority operation, it had to be refused for lack of appropriations.
Af særlig interesse er de projekter, der er samlet under Fl i retningslinjerne for 1984-1986 for fondens
The application was submitted under the guideline giving priority to local

Mon han vil kommentere den omstændighed, at Det forenede Kongerige er en af de mest succesrige ansøgere af socialfondsmidler, men synes at modtage meget få af de penge til kvindeprojekter. Jeg gad vide, om han vil spekulere over hvorfor.
This question relates to the Social Fund and the application of the Social Fund to a particular scheme.
kelig har et fifty-fifty-forhold.
Subject: Applications for social fund aid for women
Hvorfor kan Kommissionen ikke sende medlemsstaterne en skrivelse og sige, at dette er at punkt ved bedømmelsen?
I realize that the Commission is not in a position to instruct national parliaments as to which projects they select for aid from the Social Fund.
Medlemsstaterne må simpelt hen sørge for, at der deltager nok kvinder i projekterne, for jeg ved af erfaring, at hvis man ikke gør det til en pligt, så er for holdet for det meste sådan 40-60% eller 20-80%.
Is it the view of the Commission, however, that some very good ideas submitted by women individually and in groups are not given the same consideration as some projects that are submitted by men?
Men hvis man gør det til en pligt, så gennemføres der særlige aktioner i medlemsstaterne, og så melder der sig nok kvinder til deltagelse i projekterne. Mit spørgsmål er derfor, hvorfor forslaget fra udvalget om kvinders rettigheder, der er fremsat to-tre gange, ikke er fulgt op en eneste gang af Kommissionen?
Does the Commission think that this is because senior personnel in government departments and national institutions are mostly men, that sometimes they are of the opinion that women are not capable of submitting a worthwhile project or making a success of it and that they occasionally, to put it no stronger than that, give the man who is promoting such a project more of a say and more of a hearing than they give to the women?
Vil Kommissionen desuden overveje ved årets ud gang at omdele en liste over gode fremgangsmåder og forbilledlige projekter i forbindelse med kvinders ansøgninger til socialfonden, så medlemsstaterne selv bedre kunne indgive ansøgninger?
Will the Commission provide information relating to the numbers of projects concerning women which were submitted by Member States and which were selected for aid under the Social Fund since it has been noted that for one year West Germany received 57% of all the funds under this budget, followed by France and Italy, while Ireland, Belgium, the Netherlands and the UK drew only marginal amounts?
Sutherland. — (EN) Jeg tror, at fru Maij-Weggen er helt bekendt med den betydning, som Kommissionen konsekvent tillægger at hjælpe kvinder med hensyn til uddannelsesprojekter.
Mr Sutherland. — The honourable Member I think will understand that I would find it difficult to con jecture as to the reason why the total number of applications on behalf of women has been less than satisfactory.
Det fremgår helt klart af f.eks. den trettende beretning om socialfondens aktiviteter i regnskabsåret 1984, at Kommissionen tilægger dette spørgsmål stor betydning, og sammenholdt med den vægt, der bliver lagt på kvindespørgsmål i et særligt punkt i retningslinjerne, er dette vist i sig selv et megetsigende bevis på det skub, som Kommission en gerne vil give dette spørgsmål.
It is not considered satisfactory that the total number of applications relating to women amounts to only 36% of the Fund availability, notwithstanding the particular designation which should favour women applicants for assistance in this area.
Det er et spørgsmål, der konstant tænkes på af dem, der har at gøre med socialfondens forvaltning, og det er noget, som alle medlemsstater er bekendt med. Jeg tror ikke, Kommissionen kan gøre mere.
Certainly, many good ideas are put forward by women's organizations throughout the Community and one hopes that there will be increased emphasis on this particular area of activity as far as applicants, namely the Member States, are concerned in the future.
Sutherland. — (EN) Hvis jeg må tage det sidste punkt først. Med hensyn til at tilvejebringe en liste over gode fremgangsmåder og forbilledlige projekter ville det vist volde nogen vanskelighed at gøre sådan i betragtning af den nuværende fremgangsmåde, der går ud på at udtænke projekter til støtte for medlems staterne ved anvendelse af retningslinjer.
Mr Sutherland, Member of the Commission. — The Commission is providing the honourable Member with a full set of tables showing the distribution in 1984, the last year for which we have full figures, of the European Social Fund appropriations allocated to operations benefiting women and men respectively.
Med hensyn til der første punkt, der blev fremført, modtog Det forenede Kongerige under Fl, der kan anvendes direkte på projekter vedrørende kvinder, i 1984 4,37 mio ECU eller 28% af den samlede støtte, sammenlignet med f.eks.
Mr Hindley (S). — I welcome the statement from the Commissioner that there has been an increase in applications by and grants to women.
Tildelingen for Det forenede Kongeriges vedkommende herfra var ret stor.
But he has not gain said the statement here that the UK drew marginal amounts.
Kan Kom missionen give et skøn over virkningen af importforøgelsen af alle MFA-produkter på tekstilindustrien og beskæftigelsen i Irland i denne periode og frem til nu?
My own theory of course, would be that it is no doubt due to the discouraging influence exerted by a Tory Government over those projects, but I would be interested to hear what steps the Commission is intending to take to encourage Member States to increase the number of schemes from women's projects.
Det bør mere generelt bemærkes med hensyn til til delingen fra socialfonden, at procentdelen nationalt set — noget, som jeg mener vi generelt bør undgå under behandlingen, da det ikke er et program, der er baseret på nationale kvoter, men på en analyse af projekter — har varieret fra år til år.
Furthermore, would the Commission consider circulating at the end of each year a list of good practices and exemplary schemes for women's submissions to the Social Fund so that Member States could be in a better position to make submissions themselves?
I 1984 var stigningen 10,7% for Fællesskabet som helhed og 4,6% for Irland.
As I have said, I will make available a full table of the actual information to the honourable Member.
Den relativ bratte stigning i Fællesskabets import i 1984
For me to read it into the record now, I think, would take an excessive amount of time.
Maij-Weggen (PPE). — (NL) Jeg vil stille endnu et spørgsmål om kvinders deltagelse i den europæiske socialfonds projekter.
Mr Sutherland. — If I could take the final point first.
Kommissæren sagde: »Det er for øjeblikket 36 % «. Jeg ved, at det for seks år siden var 30%, vi går altså fremad med en lille procent om året.
With regard providing a list of good practices and exemplary schemes, I think that there would be some difficulty in doing so in view of the existing practice which is to devise schemes for the assistance of Mem ber States in the operation of guidelines.
Vi skal altså helt frem til år 2000, inden vi vir
The guide lines themselves, I think, should give a sufficient poin-
Lord Cockfield skyldtes en opgang i efterspørgslen i hele Fællesskabet, der resulterede i en stigning i produktionen og i importen.
I think that providing any additional indications of exemplary schemes might be taken in some sense to be an amendment of the guidelines themselves, which I think should be comprehensive.
Lord Cockfield. — Jeg har, hr. formand, allerede besvaret det spørgsmål.
this issue and, taken in conjunction with the emphasis given to women's issues by a particular line in the guidelines this is itself significant evidence of the impetus which the Commission would wish to see behind this issue.
Jeg vil gerne spørge kommissæren, om han ikke er af den opfattelse, at det er vigtigt i denne sammenhæng, at man fastholder, at det stadig væk er at betragte som et midlertidigt arrangement frem mod en fri verdenshandel, når det drejer sig om tekstilprodukter?
In fact, the take-up as far as the United Kingdom has been concerned under that particular heading, was quite high.
Barrett (RDE). — (EN) Jeg vil gerne takke kommissæren for hans svar.
President. — Question No 3, by Mr Barrett (H-435/ 85):
Lord Cockfield. — (EN) Jeg forstår fuldt ud de van skeligheder, tekstilindustrien står overfor.
According to the reply given by the Commission to Written Question No 1406/84 on the MFA,1develop
Da jeg var minister i London var dette et af de spørgsmål, der faldt inden for mit ansvarsområde. Jeg kan forsikre ham om, at der vil blive ført forhandlinger om en fornyelse af MFA i 1986, dvs. i det kommende år.
It is to be noted more generally in regard to the take out from the Social Fund that the percentages in national terms — something which I think we should generally eschew in discussion since it is not a pro gramme based on national quotas, but on analysis of schemes — have varied from year to year.
Lord Cockfield. — (EN) Selv om der nødvendigvis er drøftelser og spekulationer om disse spørgsmål, me ner jeg ikke, at det nogen sinde fra nogen side for alvor er blevet antydet, at MFA vil blive skrinlagt ved denne lejlighed.
ing countries subject to EEC commercial policy increased their exports to the Community by 30.9% in volume terms in the period 1977 to 1983.
Der har fundet en hel del omlægning sted, men det ville vist være rigtigt at sige, at den almindelige holdning er, at for nyelsen af MFA stadig er af afgørende betydning.
Can the Commission estimate the impact on Ireland's textile industry and employment of the increase in imports of all MFA products during this period and to date?
Hoon (S). — (EN) Vil kommissæren bekræfte, at Kommissionen har haft visse vanskeligheder med at opnå en samlet og konsekvent holdning i Rådet i spørgsmålet om multifiberarrangementets fornyelse?
Lord Cockfield, Vice-President of the Commission. — For the Community as a whole, the increase in imports of textiles in clothing originating from developing countries subject to EEC commercial policy for the period 1977 to 1983 was, as the honourable Member says, 30.9% in volume terms. The corresponding figure for Ireland was 31.5%.
Er det korrekt, når jeg antager, at den væsentligste hindring har været Det forenede Kongeriges regering, der nødig vil se det arrangement fornyet til trods for den stærke virkning, dette vil have på beskæftigelsesmulighederne i Storbritannien og Fællesskabet?
For 1984 the increases were 10.7% for the Community as a whole and 4.6% for Ireland. The relatively sharp increase in Com munity imports in 1984 was due to a recovery in demand across the Community which resulted in an increase in production and in imports.
Hvad angår de andre punkter, det ærede medlem rejste, er jeg helt klar over, at de er blevet rejst fra en række sider.
The level of employment in the textiles and clothing industry during this same period fell by 21% in Ire land and by 24% in the Community as a whole.
Det er klart sager, som opmærksomheden bør henledes på.
For 1984 employment fell by 2.3% both in Ireland and in the Community as a whole.
Formanden. — Spørgsmål nr. 4 af Lalor (H444/85):
Mrs Maij-Weggen (PPE). — (NL) I should like to ask a question about the participation of women in European Social Fund projects.
Lord Cockfield. — (EN) Det er ikke min opgave at gøre mig spekulationer om holdningerne i Rådet, om den rolle, de enkelte lande spiller, eller om deres motiver.
The Committee on Women's Rights once proposed that it be made com pulsory for the Member States to ensure that the ratio in these projects was 50:50.
Min mening er, at medlemsstaterne som helhed, sammen og hver for sig, støtter en fornyelse af MFA.
Why can the Commissioner not send a letter to the Member States saying that this aspect will be considered in the assessment of applications?
Der er nødvendigvis forskelle med hensyn til den betydning, der tillægges af de enkelte med lemsstater.
The Member States simply must ensure that enough women take part in the projects, because I know from experience that, if this is not made a requirement, the ratio is usually about 40:60 or 20:80.
Det er naturligt nok, og" man forventer i sidste instans, at der opstår enighed om de betingelser, der vil blive genstand for forhandling.
If, on the other hand, it was made a requirement, special campaigns would be organized in the Member States and enough women would apply to participate in the projects.
Kan Kommissionen oplyse, hvad den i øjeblikket foretager sig på fællesskabsplan for at bekæmpe den kysterosion, som er et problem i mange medlemsstater, og kan den yderligere meddele, om den på dette sene stadium agter at forelægge specielle forslag og sørge for de nødvendige finansielle midler til at imødegå kysterosionen?
My question, then, is this: why does the Commission not at last implement the proposal which the Committee on Women's Rights has already made three or four times?
Schleicher (PPE). — Må jeg spørge, om der findes tendenser i Kommissionen til ikke igen at forlænge multifiberarrangementet?
Mr Barrett (RDE). — I would like to thank the Com missioner for his reply.
Eller kan De entydigt give mig tilsagn om, at der ikke findes denne tendens?
It is encouraging to know that the trend changed in 1984 from previous years.
Hvis multifiberarrangementet forlænges, er Kommissionen så villig til at forbedre det kvalitativt?
Mr Sutherland. — I think that Mrs Maij-Weggen will be well aware of the importance that the Commission consistently attaches to assisting women in the matter of training schemes.
Jeg mener her handelsvareaftalernes reciprocitet over for udviklingslandene.
It is quite evident, from the Thirteenth Report on the activities of the Social Fund for the financial year 1984 for instance, that the Commission does, in fact, attribute considerable importance to
F.eks. har der været 35 sådanne projekter i Italien, mens Fællesskabet i Frankrig har anvandt 1,2 mio franske franc i Bretagne på havnebeskyttelse.
Lord Cockfield. — I entirely appreciate the difficulties faced by the textile trades.
Sutherland, medlem af Kommissionen. — (EN) Det var Storbritannien, der før nogen anden medlemsstat iværksatte et omfattende program tilindførelse af de nye informationsteknologier i skolerne.
Indeed, when I was aMin ister in London, this was one of the subjects which fell within my area of responsibility.
Programmet er baseret på et omfattende institutionsmæssigt net med poster i hver region af landet.
I can assure him that negotiations for the renewal of the MFA will be undertaken in 1986, that is in the coming year.
Selv om kystsikrings- ogjordbehandlingsinfrastrukturer med et specielt landbrugsmæssigt indhold er ude lukket fra støtte fra regionalfonden, kan de blive finansieret under EUGFL. Som helhed reagerer Fæl lesskabspolitikken aktivt over for farerne ved kysterosion, der efter Kommissionens mening ikke kan betragtes om et separat spørgsmål, men snarere som et særligt aspekt af regionalpolitikken.
My second question: does the Commissioner think that developments are so far advanced that a new Multifibre Arrangement should include a special con tract to establish equal conditions of competition in accordance with the ILO's declaration on organizational and trade union freedom and ban on child labour — factors which many believe contribute to the distortion of competition between the developing countries and the industrialized countries?
I Frankrig er der også gradvis blevet indført et pro gram vedrørende indførelsen af de nye informationsteknologier i skolerne, der hovedsagelig er lagt an på undervisningsmateriale og uddannelse af lærere.
Mr Hoon (S). — Would the Commissioner confirm that the Commission has had some difficulty in obtain ing a united and consistent line in the Council of Ministers on the question of the renewal of the Multifibre Agreement?
Et program til forsyning af skolerne med hardware er for øjeblikket ved at blive iværksat, og dets mål er at forsyne de højere klassetrin med 120 000 mikrocomputere inden udgangen af 1985. De fleste medlems stater har for øjeblikket programmer, der er lagt an på at forsyne skolerne med hardware, software og uddannelse af lærere i Tyskland, Belgien, Nederlandene, Italien, Danmark og Irland.
Would I be correct in assuming that the major stumbling-block has been the United Kingdom Government, which has been reluctant to see the arrangement renewed, notwithstanding the devastating impact that this would have on employment pros pects in Britain and the Community?
Fitzgerald (RDE). — (EN) Må jeg meget kort spørge kommissæren, om der er en ensartet norm i med lemsstaterne, og er der en konstant overvågning og årvågenhed fra Kommissionens side i betragtning af teknologiens rivende udvikling?
Lord Cockfield. — While inevitably there is discussion and speculation on these matters, I do not think it has ever been seriously suggested in any quarter that the MFA would be abandoned on this occasion.
Lalor (RDE). — (EN) Selv om jeg takker kommissæren for hans åbenhjertige måde at behandle dette spørgsmål på og for oplysningerne om, at der et 35 projekter, der et støttet i Italien, og 30 i Det forenede Kongerige, er der så i Kommissionens arkiver registreret noget tilfælde, hvor der et tildelt nogen som helst støtte til Irland?
It is per fectly true, as the honourable Member says, that the MFA was conceived as a temporary arrangement to allow readjustment to take place in the textile industries of the developed countries.
Er der blevet indgivet nogen ansøgning fra den irske regering om støtte til værn mod kysterosion langs Irlands østkyst, der rent faktisk er ved at blive ædt bort?
A great deal of reconstruction has taken place, but I think it would be right to say that the universal view is that renewal of the MFA still remains essential.
Clinton Davis. — (EN) Det ærede medlem vil være klar over, at detaljerede oplysninger om ansøgninger under regionalfonden henhører under hr. Varfis.
So far as the other points raised by the honourable Member are concerned, I am well aware that they have been raised in a number of quarters.
Men så vidt jeg ved, er der ikke indgivet sådanne ansøgninger specielt til de formål, det ærede medlem refererede til.
They are clearly matters to which attention will need to be paid.
Spørgsmål nr. 5 af Fitzgerald (H-
President. — Question No 4, by Mr Lalor (H-444/ 85):
Om: Grundlæggende tekniske kundskaber
My own view is that the Member States as a whole, in total and separately, support the renewal of the MFA.
Sutherland. — (EN) Kommissionen er beskæftiget med at overvåge og koordinere de ordninger, der fin der sted, og gør det i generel forstand på området nye informationsteknologier inden for skolesystemerne.
Will the Commission indicate what action it is taking at present at Community level to counter the problem of coastal erosion experienced in many Member States and will it further state if it intends at this late stage to put forward special proposals backed up with the necessary funds to deal with coastal erosion?
Som det ærede medlem vil være bekendt med, har Kommissionen allerede udarbejdet et dokument — en meddelelse fra Kommissionen til Rådet — den 14. december 1984 om dette spørgsmål og har afholdt seminarer, samråd og drøftelser med de kompetente myndigheder i hver medlemsstat.
Mr Schleicher (PPE). — (DE) May I ask whether there are tendencies within the Commission in favour of not renewing the Multifibre Arrangement?
Så vidt det er muligt at gøre det, søger Fællesskabet og navnlig Kommission en at fungere som et clearing- og informationscenter på området nye informationsteknologier, uddannelse af lærere og nye fag i skolerne.
Mr Clinton Davis, Member of the Commission. — The Commission is well aware of the concerns that have been expressed in the past by a number of honourable Members, and most notably by Mr Lalor himself, about the phenomenon of coastal erosion.
I hvilket omfang har de enkelte medlemsstaters undervisnings myndigheder truffet foranstaltninger med henblik på at sikre, at pensum fuldt ud dækker de unges behov for at tilegne sig de grundlæggende tekniske kundskaber, som får stadig større betydning, hvis de i dag og fremover skal kunne tilfredsstille arbejdsgivernes krav til deres kvalifikationer og færdigheder?
Lord Cockfield. — With respect, Mr President, I have already answered that question. It is the firm intention that the MFA should be renewed, but the precise terms which ultimately emerge are the subject of consider ation and will, of course, be subject to the negotiations which take place with the individual States with whom the agreements are made.
