Maij-Weggen arbejde skulder ved skulder på socialt og økonomisk omrøde.
Maij-Weggen would suggest. According to the European Federation of Trade Unions we should be thinking in terms of 8 to 10 million people rather than 6 million.
Hr. formand, hvem her kan forstå det, må meget gerne forklare mig det.
These part-time work programmes must not of course lead to exploitation of unemployed persons or pose a threat to existing jobs.
Netop planen til genrejsning af økonomien i Europa, der blev godkendt i Parlamentet i maj måned, fore slår udmærkede retningslinjer for en sådan politik.
A fourth interesting point in the Commission's com munication is that all the Member States are currently taking action aimed at combating longterm unem ployment.
Kun hvis vi vedtager en social-økonomisk politik på EØF-plan, kan vi strukturelt bekæmpe arbejdsløsheden på lang sigt.
However, the various efforts are somewhat fragmented and almost totally uncoordinated and produce very different and in some cases very disappointing results.
Udvalget om sociale anliggender og beskæftigelse ønsker, at denne plan så hurtigt som muligt behandles af Rådet, og hellere i dag end i morgen. gen.
We strongly oppose the current practice in some countries of making deductions from the benefit paid to these people since this leads to complacency and moonlighting.
Van den Heuvel (S), ordfører. — (NL) Hr. formand, under den vanskelige valgkampagne, vi lige har over stået, har vi kunnet konstatere, at der i alt fald var én gruppe vælgere, for hvem vi har kunnet forklare Det europæiske Fællesskabs afgørende betydning for folks daglige liv.
The economic problems include the fact that human energy and production capacities are being wasted, with the result that our economic growth is some 5% less than it could be.
At der ville komme indvendinger kunne Kommissionen have forudset allerede ved udarbejdelsen af handlingsprogrammet, ikke sandt?
We in the Social Affairs Committee also advocate alternative employment programmes based on the principle of benefits wholly or partially compensating for the wage costs.
Men dengang ville Kommissionen åbenbart ikke vige, i modsætning til dens nuværende holdning.
The Netherlands can serve as an example in this respect.
Netop nu er medlemsstaterne ikke særlig villige til at tage særforanstaltninger på grund af krisen.
We feel that the European principle of equal treatment for men and women and for indigenous and migrant workers must also be respected in all these programmes.
Men derfor må der på fællesskabs plan gøres noget for at fremme foranstaltningerne, som Kommissionen med rette skriver i en af sine begrundelser. Kommissionen må derfor føre en beslutsom politik og ikke på forhånd kapitulere over for staternes uvilje.
As regards the European Community's contribution to this emergency plan, we feel that first and foremost we must have harmonized and honest statistics so that we can get a gen uine picture of the situation.
Når man så endelig vælger at komme med en henstilling, der efter vor mening er en langt dårligere fremgangsmåde, så kunne man i det mindste forvente, at Kommissionen ville vie kontrollen med henstillingen desto større opmærksomhed.
The Community could also coordinate the various national activities so that the most effective of them, such as the Danish pro gramme, could be given priority and held up as an example to other Member States.
Men nej, Kommissionen giver medlemsstaterne hele tre år til at iværksætte henstillingen.
In addition, if it was increased the European Social Fund could help to finance effective coordinated programmes, and we would remind you here of the fact that the Council of Ministers has undertaken to double the ESF in five years.
Udvalget om kvinders rettigheder insisterer på, at denne frist afkortes.
To be quite honest, we saw little signs of this happening in the recent budgetary talks.
Vi forstår, at der vil medgå nogen tid til udarbejdelsen af foranstaltningerne.
In addition, skills are being lost, which necessitates expensive retraining.
En frist på 2 år er vi indforstået med. Men derefter er en årlig beretning påkrævet.
Thirdly, unemployment benefits are costing more and more and already account for 5% of the national budget, and fourthly, the falling incomes of the unemployed lead to shortfalls in the national economies.
Hvis det viser sig, at den dengang så modige Kom mission faktisk får ret, og at de positive særforanstaltninger ikke kan gennemføres, medmindre der foreligger en fast struktureret lovgivningsramme, så tabes der i alt fald ikke så megen tid før der kan stilles et forslag til direktiv.
The social problems include the increasing poverty and isolation of large groups of the population and feelings of discouragement and humiliation, which can result in either despondency or aggressiveness or indeed political extremism, racism and ultimately even a distrust of democratic institutions.
Kan kvinderne nu være tilfredse, navnlig med hensyn til Kommissionens stillingtagen?
Finally, the European Community could take the initiative of laying down, at European level, minimum benefits to be paid to longterm unemployed persons.
De, der læser det dokument, som vi her drøfter: »henstilling om frem me af positiv særbehandling af kvinder«, kan have deres tvivl.
This could offset many of the economic problems, such as the drop in demand, and many of the social problems, such as the poverty.
Men sammenligner man den foreliggende henstilling med handlingsprogrammet, og især med den del, der omhandler positive foranstaltninger, bliver man endog foruroliget.
I should like to conclude by making two further remarks on behalf of the Social Affairs Committee.
Med hensyn til henstillingens indhold vil jeg gerne bemærke følgende: de mange områder, Kommissionen foreslår skal være omfattet af postive særforanstaltninger, viser klart, hvor meget kvinderne endnu står tilbage, og hvor stor uligheden er.
It is a good thing, therefore, that the Commission has proposed an action programme to the Council with a view to combating longterm unemployment.
Regelmæssigt publiceres der i medlemsstaterne resultater af undersøgelser, der bekræfter disse forhold.
The Committee on Social Affairs and Employment broadly speaking supports this action programme, except that we would like to make the resolution more urgent in character.
Desværre er situationen på mange andre områder ikke bedre.
We would also like to expand it and tighten it up in certain respects.
Kommissionen skriver i handlingsprogrammet, at erfaringen har vist, at disse foranstalt ninger ikke har nogen virkning, så længe der ikke findes en grundlæggende, juridisk ramme i lighed med den, der eksisterer i USA, som fastsætter den type foranstaltninger, der skal gennemføres og de midler, der skal anvendes, og hvori de uundværlige sanktioner er fastlagt. Det er rene ord for pengene.
We are thinking, for example, of the directives concerning part-time and temporary work, the directives on equal treatment for men and women, the recommendations on the redistribution of work and flexible pension systems and the resolution on an economic recovery plan.
Men selv om Kommissionen i sin begrundelse til henstillingen gentager, at tværgående retsforskrifter er
Denmark can serve as an example in this respect since it has conducted projects of this kind
Vi ved af erfaring, at jo mindre specifikt en hen stilling er defineret, desto større er chancen for, at man kan unddrage sig den.
Secondly, we regard an emergency programme to combat longterm unemployment as absolutely vital
Van den Heuvel tidsmangel kudne udvalget for kvinders rettigheder desværre ikke drøfte forslaget, men jeg går ud fra, at det har medlemmernes fulde tilslutning.
I am sure you will agree that the Commission might have realized when it drew up its action programme that certain objections might be made.
tidig forringe mulighederne for børnepasning.
What we need, furthermore, is a structural solution, which means that the various European Member States must all pull together in the social and economic fields.
Man kan ikke samtidig rydde forhindringer af vejen for kvinder og skabe eller opretholde andre forhindringer, f.eks. med hensyn til den sociale bistand eller skattepolitikken.
The economic recovery plan I have just mentioned and which was adopted by this Parliament last May in fact provides excellent guidelines for a policy of this kind.
Hr. formand, jeg er meget spændt på et høre svarene fra Kommissionen og Rådet.
The Social Committee hopes the Council will waste no time in dealing with this plan.
Vi går ud fra, at Kommissionen vil gå ind for vort forslag.
IN THE CHAIR: MR PLASKOVITIS
Værre endnu, det, Kommissionen beretter om sin egen personale politik i interimsberetningen om gennemførelsen af Fællesskabets handlingsprogram, ligner mere en sa marits arbejde med at anlægge nødforbindinger i ekspresfart end en beretning om positive særforanstaltninger, af samme art som dem, Kommissionen har henstillet til medlemsstaterne at gennemføre.
Women understood this perfectly when we were able to draw their attention to directives originating with the European Commission, the Commission's action programme, the resolutions adopted by this Parliament and the Commission's observations in con nection with them.
Hvis man ser det ud fra kravet om omhyggelig parlamentarisk behandling, er dette tydeligvis uønskeligt.
However, the Commission obviously thought differ ently then and did not intend to let this stand in its way.
Udvalget anlagde imidlertid det i mine øjne meget kloge synspunkt, at ved at samarbejde kunne det sikre en hurtig og positiv reaktion fra Ministerrådet på handlingsprogrammet vedrørende fattigdom.
Now that the Member States are less inclined to take measures in view of the crisis, this is the very time when we must endeavour to step up action at Com munity level, as the Commission rightly states, but in this case what we need is a forceful Commission policy, and not a Commission which gives up as soon as the Member States cease to be cooperative.
Jeg håber, at det bliver tilfældet, og at det irske formandskab vil benytte lejligheden til at fremskynde sagerne med lige så høj prioritering og i et lige så hastigt tempo som Parlamentets udvalg om om sociale anliggender og beskæftigelse.
If this results in the Commission opting for a recommendation, which we regard as a far inferior way of tackling the question, we could at least expect it to devote more attention to ensuring that the recommendation is in fact put into practice.
Hr. formand, vi vil meget gerne i dag høre fra Kom missionen, hvor langt man er nået med hensyn til de strukturelle foranstaltninger inden for Kommissionens personalepolitik.
But no, the Commission blithely gives the Member States three years to get down to business.
Fungerer det udvalg for ligebehandling, som kommissær Burke omtalte, og har Kommissionen i sin egen administration udnævnt sagkyndigt personale, som den foreslår medlemsstaterne at gøre det i handlingsprogrammet for ligebehandling?
The Committee on Women's Rights insists that this period must be reduced. We realize that it will take time to draw up the programmes and would be glad to allow two years.
Vi anmoder Kommissionen om inden to måneder at forelægge en evalueringsrapport, der virkelig fortjener det navn.
However, after these two years it is vital that progress reports be produced on an annual basis and should it transpire that the Commission had in fact been right when it had still had enough courage to say that in the absence of basic structured legislation action did not get off the ground, it can at least not lose too much time before coming up with a proposal for a directive after all.
Når jeg nu fremlægger denne betænkning, vil jeg ger ne understrege, at fattidgom er ved at blive det centrale politiske problem i 1980'erne i rige såvel som i fattige lande.
As regards the contents of the recommendation I should like to say that many of the fields for which the Commission has made recommendations for positive action clearly show how much inequality women still have to contend with, and the picture is borne out by results of surveys which are regularly published in the Member States.
Selv om seks af de ti EF-lande er blandt verdens ti mest velhavende stater, viser de nedslående kendsgerninger, at samtidig med at Fællesskabets velfærd er steget i løbet af efterkrigstiden, så er fattigdommen blevet mere udbredt.
For example it emerged from a very recent study in my own country that only 10% of newspaper journalists are women, that there is not a single woman editor-in-chief or assistant editor-in-chief and that only 5% of the women journalists are in a position of authority.
Der er naturligvis nu på grund af markedsforskelle i de forskellige lande i verden en overlapning af levestandarden i de rige og de forholdsvis fattige lande.
This is only an example but unfortunately the situation is no better in many other fields.
Hr. formand, til slut vil jeg gerne stille et par spørgsmål til Rådets repræsentant. Fru Maij-Weggen har ligeledes omtalt emnet.
Can these women now put their minds at rest, particularly as regards the attitude of the European Commission?
Europa-Parlament blev stillet under et enormt tidspres for at drøfte foreliggende henstilling på meget kort tid, så det ville være muligt at tage en beslutning på mødet i Rådet af socialministre i december.
The document under discussion today, i.e. the recommendation on the promotion of positive action for women might well raise some doubts.
Vil Rådets repræsentant også meddele, om den samme beslutningsberedvillighed ligeledes gælder for de for kvinder så vigtige direktiv forslag, der foreligger: ligebehandling af mænd og kvinder inden for de erhvervstilknyttede sociale sikringsordninger, midlertidig beskæftigelse, deltidsarbejde, forældreorlov og kvinders stilling i selvstændige erhverv?
As the Commission states in its action programme, experience shows that in the absence of a basic legal framework of the kind which exists in the United States to determine the type of action to be taken, the means to be used and the sanctions which must be imposed, action of this kind does not get off the ground.
Hvis det er tilfældet, kan vi så forvente, at Rådet tager beslutninger om disse direktiver på decembermødet? Det ville være rart.
That is putting it plainly, and since we can safely assume that the Commission has no need for action which never gets off the ground, it is obvious that what we need is a binding instrument — in other words a Community-level directive.
Det må være en undervurdering af situationen i dag.
However, in spite of the fact that the Commission repeats in the explanatory statement to the recommen
Fremfor alt understreger vi, at hovedvægten i det andet program må lægges på konkrete aktioner.
the various problems facing women, regardless of whether they are just coming on to the labour market or have been on it for some time, are interrelated.
Dette tror jeg, har været et tilbagevendende tema i de kom mentarer og udtalelser, udvalgets medlemmer har fremsat.
You cannot support a recommendation for positive action on the one hand while at the same time reducing crèche facilities and the like.
Udvalget er af den opfattelse, at det første program for vejledende undersøgelser skal være mere end blot et hensigtsmæssigt grundlag for et effektivt aktionsprogram.
You cannot undertake to eliminate the obstacles with which women have to contend while at the same time maintaining other ones or creating new ones as regards, for example, social benefits or taxation.
Vi angiver nemlig præcist, at mindst 80% af budgettet skal anvendes til aktionsforskning.
I am very interested to hear what the Commission and the Council have to say in answer to my questions.
Til denne gruppe kommer så naturligvis dem, man har kaldt de »nyfattige«, andre, som nu er gamle, handicappede, folk, der lider af kronisk dårligt hel bred, enlige forældre, eller dem, der bor i industri eller landbrugsområder, der er i tilbagegang.
The European Commission has an opportunity to stress the seriousness of its proposals by giving priority to positive action among the various projects proposed as candidates for aid from the European Social Fund.
Hvad der rent faktisk sker er, at forskellige mindretal i befolkningen i virkeligheden bliver gennet ind i, hvad man kunne kalde afhængighedsforhold.
We therefore assume that the Commission will adopt a proposal to this effect.
Vi siger, at projekterne bør tage udgangspunkt i med lemsstaternes nationale hovedprogrammer; de skal supplere dem, men ikke overlappe dem. Vi under streger kraftigt, at resultaterne af denne aktionsforskning skal tjene som retningslinjer for aktion, ret ningslinjer for de beslutninger, der skal træffes, og bør tages i betragtning, når Fællesskabet og medlemsstaterne udformer deres politik.
It may well be said that it is up to the Commission, the Council and of course the other institutions too including the European Parliament — we must also be prepared to look at home — to give an example, but so far this has clearly not led to any spectacular results.
Det fællesskabshandlingsprogram, Kommissionen har foreslået, vil selvfølgelig ikke rette op på denne yderst foruroligende situation, og det kan det natur ligvis heller ikke.
Mr Megahy (S), rapporteur. — Mr President, this report on specific Community action to combat poverty has proceeded through the Committee on Social Affairs and Employment at what I would call unprecedented speed.
Hovedårsagerne er dybt forankret i samfundets karakter, og en afhjælpning må hovedsagelig ske gennem medlemslandenes regeringers større sociale og økonomiske programmer.
From the point of view of effective parliamentary scrutiny, that is obviously undesirable.
For min egen del er jeg enig i den nylige udtaleelse om, at de fattiges forhold kun kan forbedres på længere sigt ved, at de riges magt såvel som deres velstand begrænses.
The committee, however, quite wisely in my view, took the view that by cooperating it could ensure a swift and favourable response from the Council of Ministers on the poverty action programme.
Det foreslåede handlingsprogram er kortsigtet — rent faktisk drejer det sig om en periode på 5 år. Europa-Parlamentet, der støttede og anerkendte det tidligere program, så allerede i 1983 med glæde frem til et nyt fællesskabsprogram.
We would be grateful if the Commission would tell us here today what progress it has made as regards structural measures in its own staff policy, whether the Equal Opportunities Committee which Mr Burke mentioned earlier is now in operation and whether the Commission has already introduced, within its own institution, the expert supervision proposed in its act ion programme for the Member States, and, in the somewhat longer term — we mentioned two months in the motion for a resolution — we would be grateful if the Commission would submit a progress report worthy of the name.
Så lille dette program end er, bør det efter udvalgets mening udformes således, at det bliver et vigtigt red skab i politikken til løsning af dette enorme fattigdomsproblem.
In presenting the report, I stress the point that poverty is becoming the central political issue of the 1980s in rich as well as in poor countries.
Hvis det anvendes korrekt, kan det blive udtryk for et ægte engagement fra Fællesskabets og medlemsstaternes side i forsøget på at imødekomme de fattiges behov.
Although six of the 10 EEC countries are amongst the world's 10 wealthiest States, the facts depressingly show that as the wealth of the Community has increased over the post-war period, so also has the scale of poverty.
Hvis det imidlertid ikke bakkes op af finansiel styrke og en radikal ændring i den sociale prioritering, vil det efter min mening blot blive en kosmetisk effekt, der skal bevirke, at et for holdsvis indifferent Fællesskab ikke taber ansigt.
Indeed, because of marked inequalities within the countries of the world, there is now an overlap of living standards between rich and relatively poor countries.
Jeg håber, at Rådet, når det behandler ikke blot dette program, men også det forestående budget, vil sikre sig, at der, hvis de engagerer sig i et program af denne art, også er tilstrækkelige midler til rådighed til, at et sådant program kan gennemføres med held.
It is estimated, for example, that the poorest 20% of the British population are a lot poorer than the most prosperous 20% of the populations in Mexico, Yugoslavia, Malaysia and Turkey.
Medens jeg erkender begrænsningerne i omfang i for hold til problemets enorme størrelse, tror jeg, at jeg kan sige om hele udvalget om sociale anliggender og beskæftigelse, at skønt vi er kritiske på nogle områder, tror vi, at et sådant program, såfremt det anvendes korrekt, kan være meget lærerigt både for selve.
Thus, in the first programme of pilot schemes and studies, the Commission itself estimated that around the mid-1970s there were at least 30 million people living in poverty within the European Community — that is, excluding Greece.
Det europæiske Fællesskab og for medlemslandenes regeringer.
That must be an underestimation for the position today.
I alt fald er udkastet til en henstilling om positiv særbehandling af kvinder — og jeg taler her for udvalget om sociale anliggender og beskæftigelse — et logisk skridt fremad på den vej, Kommissionen og heldigvis, for nogle år siden, også Parlamentet er slået ind på.
that the experience of the last 30 years shows clearly that economic growth in itself has not eliminated poverty, nor have expanded social services necessarily had a major redistributive effect towards the poorest.
Derfor er det nødvendigt med positiv særbehandling som rygstøtte til vore eu ropæiske kvinder, således at den ligebehandling, der eksisterer på papir, også kan komme til at gælde i praksis.
The longterm poor live in the worst housing for the least desirable areas, suffer the most ill health and disability, are the least well-educated, work in the most unsatisfactory jobs in the poorest work ing conditions, endure chronic economic and per sonal insecurity and can offer the least hope for a better future for their children.
Jeg vil gerne nævne ét ændringsforslag, mens jeg selv følgelig varmt anbefaler alle ændringsforslag fra ud valget om sociale anliggender og beskæftigelse.
Above all, we stress that the essential focus of the second programme must be on action.
Da situationen for belter and for worse ikke altid viser sig at være better, med desværre ofte worse og kvinderne derfor ofte kommer i den situation uventet at skulle sørge for sig selv og for deres børn, anmoder vi om undersøgelser samt offentliggørelse heraf, af den her ved opståede, såkaldte feminisering af fattigdommen. På grund af en utilstrækkelig faguddannelse og utilstrækkelig erhvervserfaring kommer disse kvinder i en umulig situation med de deraf følgende psykologiske følger og økonomiske konsekvenser, der ofte — og det må man ikke glemme — er for samfundets regning.
That, I think, has been a recurring theme in the comments and speeches made by members of the committee.
Det er på høje tid, at vi fjerner det drømmende, luksusbetonede skær over emancipationen.
Indeed, we specify that at least 80% of the budget must be used for action research.
Den positive særbehandling er efter vort udvalgs mening et skridt i den rigtige retning.
We agree with the need for a poverty clearing-house and emphasize the importance of public awareness campaigns, which members of the committee felt had been rather neglected in the first programme.
Udvalget om sociale anliggender og beskæftigelse går ind for tanken om positiv særbehandling.
This group, of course, is joined by what has been termed the 'new poor' termed the 'new poor', by others who are now old, disabled, in chronically poor health, by single-parent families or those who belong to industrial or agricultural areas in decline.
Men selve udkastet til henstilling er vi ikke særlig begejstret for. Ordlyden er rodet, vag og den er fuld af tomme fra ser.
In fact, what is happening is that different minorities of the population are in fact being shepherded into what could be called states of dependency.
