Jeg kan tilføje, at De Ti følger situationen i Iran meget nøje, og at De Ti løbende overvejer, hvorvidt der på ny burde være behov for konkrete henvendelser til de iranske myndigheder.
This would apply not only to Greek antiquities, but to all the antiquities of the Member States regardless of the country concerned.
Ellemann-Jensen. — Jeg kan kun henvise til, hvad jeg tidligere har sagt.
I feel that this proposal would be well received by public opinion in our Member States.
Israel. — (FR) Rådsformanden har netop sagt os, at Rådet ikke har nogen fælles politik med hensyn til retten til asyl.
Mr Patterson. — The President-in-Office does not believe that this a matter for the Community, surely he can agree that it is part of the glory of Greece that its antiquities are part of the common heritage of all European citizens?
Formanden. — Spørgsmål nr. 87 af Megahy (H-380/ 82):
Mr Ellemann-Jensen, President-in-Office of the Council. — (DA) Mr Skovmand asks me to confirm that the high level of tax on spirits and cigarettes in Den mark has clear benefits in terms of health.
Ellemann-Jensen. — Det var vist spørgsmål til mig. Svaret er ja.
Mr Ellemann-Jensen. — (DA) I am not acquainted with these reports.
Der er et fortvivlende behov for denne hjælp, særlig i Nicaragua, og det lader til, at en regering alene for øjeblikket blokerer denne hjælp.
This derogation expires at the end of this year unless it is extended by the Council at the proposal of the Commission.
Jeg ville være taknemmelig, hvis han kunne forsikre mig om, at formandsskabet vil forsøge at overbevise alle andre regeringer om, at politiske hensyn af den art ikke bør øve indflydelse på tildeling af hjælp.
As I said, however, the Council has no information which would enable it to confirm the interesting theory about the state of public health in Denmark.
Finder udenrigsministrene, at Grenadas nuværende regering på ingen måde fortjener Det europæiske Fællesskabs anerkendelse?
On the second point the aim is naturally to achieve harmonization in this field, just as the objective is to harmonize policy in other fields.
Ellemann-Jensen. — Jeg kan oplyse, at Rådet den 26. oktober på ny skal drøfte forslaget fra Kommissionen om EF-bistand til Centralamerika, og jeg håber, at der snarest vil kunne opnås enighed om en bistandspakke, således at EF også kan være med til at give et bidrag til stabilisering af forholdene i dette urolige område.
Mr Skovmand. — (DA) I would point out that there are various studies which show a clear correlation between the price of spirits and the incidence of deaths and diseases due to alcohol.
Formanden. — Formanden for udenrigsministrene er med dette svar kommet lidt bort fra det spørgsmål, der faktisk blev stillet ham.
It can be seen that, in the ten years since we joined the EEC, the number of both deaths and diseases has been going up.
Ellemann-Jensen, formand for udenrigsministrene. — Eftersom hr. Morelands spørgsmål — så vidt jeg forstår — angår anerkendelsen af regeringen i Grenada, kan jeg svare, at anerkendelse af uden landske stater og regeringer er de enkelte medlems staters prærogativ, og i øvrigt har spørgsmålet slet ikke været diskuteret af De Ti's udenrigsministre.
This is because public health in Denmark has been adversely affected as a result of the pressure from the EEC and the changes that have been made — e.g. one may now import twice as much from other EEC countries on long trips and more than before on short ones.
Når medlemmerne ønsker at understrege et vigtigt spørgsmål af denne art, vil jeg anmode Dem om at gøre det til genstand for særskilt spørgsmål.
I believe it is high time for the Council to take note of this and have a look at the studies which do, in fact, exist.
Jeg ved, at Rådets formand så, når han har spørgsmålet liggende foran sig, vil gøre alt for at besvare det.
Does the Council intend to do this before the end of the year?
Enright. — (EN) Ja, jeg undskylder, fru formand, at jeg har bragt mit spørgsmål på bane i forbindelse med det særlige spørgsmål.
Mr Bonde. — (DA) I assume that the President-in-Office read all about the concept of price elasticity when he was studying economics.
Det var egentlig meget beslægtet med et andet spørgsmål, som vi ikke fik besvaret i dag, fordi spørgeren ikke var til stede.
Is the President-in-Office aware of paragraphs in the Treaty of Rome which allow a nation to be condemned to increased alcoholism?
Moreland. — (EN) Jeg er lidt forbavset over det sidste svar, fordi jeg mente, det blev drøftet for ca. 18 måneder eller 2 år siden.
Mr Ellemann-Jensen. — (DA) What Mr Skovmand has said is extremely interesting.
Det er Fællesskabets prærogativ sådan at forstå, at vi har et hjælpeprogram for Grenada.
I am not acquainted with these studies, but in view of Mr Skovmand's remarks I shall immediately have them looked for.
De andre forhold indgik ikke i spørgsmålet.
President. -(H-306/82):
van Minnen. — (NL) Ja, jeg vil gerne præcisere hr. Morelands spørgsmål, fordi det ikke drejer sig om anerkendelse, hr. formand, men om godkendelse.
What are the Council's views on the necessity of bringing to a conclusion the trialogue between Parliament, the Council and the Commission in order to eliminate the difficulties in drawing up the Community budget?
Er det udenrigsministrenes mening, at den dominikanske republiks nuværende regering på ingen måde kan betragtes som havende Fællesskabets godkendelse?
Mr Rogalla. — (DE) May I ask the President-in-Office whether he does not also believe that duties on spirits and cigarettes are essentially fiscal in nature?
De hørte rigtigt, jeg sagde Den dominikanske Republik.
And lastly, will he push for harmonization of taxes in this sector?
Er det udenrigsministrene bekendt, at haitianeren hr. Samuel Roch, der siden 1970 har været politisk flygtning i Den dominikanske Republik, er forsvundet i juni 1982. Samuel Roch, som blev bortført af ukendte personer i San Domingo takket være Haitis og Den dominikanske Republiks politis medvirken, blev først fængslet i Port au Prince og sidder nu indespærret i nærheden af Haitis grænse til Den dominikanske Republik.
Mr Ellemann-Jensen, President-in-Office of the Council. — (DA) As the honourable Member is probably aware, on 30 June 1982 the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission signed a joint declara tion on various measures designed to improve the budgetary procedure.
I betragtning af, at den nye præsident for Den dominikanske Republik, hr. Gorge Bianco, betegner sig selv som en »demokrat fra top til tå, der respekterer vor kristelige civilisations traditioner«, agter udenrigsministrene så at protestere over for den dominikanske regering for at opnå, at Geneve-konventionen om politiske flygtninge respekteres, og at hr. Samuel Roch omgående løslades?
Mr Ellemann-Jensen. — (DA) If one Member State of the Community has managed to obtain a special sys tem in this field, this is because of the historical burden — I think it can be called that — borne by the country in question, in that an already exceptionally high burden of tax and duty is distributed differently from the other Member States, and up till now the sensible attitude in the Community has been that a modern industrial society cannot change overnight the distribution of the burden in its entire tax and finance policy.
Ellemann-Jensen. — Det ved jeg ikke.
Mr Cousté. — (FR) It is precisely because I am aware of the agreement of 30 June that I put my question.
Det er jeg ikke i stand til at svare på.
Otherwise I would not have put the question to the Council.
Enright. — (EN) Måske vil Rådets formand heller ikke være i stand til at besvare mit spørgsmål, men jeg vil i så tilfælde være taknemmelig for et skriftligt svar. Jeg vil gerne spørge i hvor høj grad politiske forhold har spillet en rolle i blokeringen af Kommissionen
Mr Brøndlund-Nielsen. — (DA) Can the President-in-Office confirm that, within the last few days, reports have appeared which show that there has recently been a sharp rise in cigarette consumption in Denmark, and that experts have expressed the view that increases — even substantial increases — in duty have only a totally transitory effect on consumption?
Ellemann-Jensen, formand for udenrigsministrene. — Ifølge de oplysninger, der er til rådighed for De Ti, gennemfører de dominikanske myndigheder en seriøs og tilbundsgående undersøgelse af hr. Rochs påståede forsvinden.
Mr Ellemann-Jensen. — (DA) I can only repeat that the Council is naturally aware of the agreement of which it is a co-signatory, and that the Council is also
Ellemann-Jensen denne sag fra den interamerikanske menneskerettighedskommission har erklæret, at den nuværende regering, der kun har været ved magten siden den 16. august i år, har taget de nødvendige skridt til at fortsætte og forstærke denne undersøgelse.
Ellemann-Jensen so flexible that, even if feels that the conditions laid down in the agreement have not been fulfilled, the President-in-Office only last week held discussions with the Presidents of the Commission and Parliament.
Under disse omstændigheder finder De Ti det uhensigtsmæssigt at intervenere på nuværende tidspunkt.
This just to emphasize our good will and resolve to settle problems so as to avoid confrontation.
Ellemann-Jensen. — Jeg kan kun være enig rnéd spørgeren om, at man selvfølgelig ikke skal være bange, og at man ihærdigt skal arbejde for respekt for menneskerettigheder.
help in finding some young people who would like to go to Paris and attend this exhibition.
Jeg skal dog tilføje, at man på den anden side skal passe på at bevare det princip, at man ikke sammenblander politiske hensyn og bistandsprincippet.
The sensible reaction in the information office was: let us see who is interested and ask them to write an essay.
Galland. — (FR) For det første tror jeg, at hr. Van Minnens tillægsspørgsmål for lidt siden ikke er blevet forstået, idet det var knyttet til mit spørgsmål og ikke til foregående spørgsmål.
There can be no question of the Commission setting an essay, as Mr Bonde says, or of the Commission spending any money on this, and I am surprised that Parliament's time and a lot of the European taxpayers' money should be spent on dealing with such a question when, if one could only read Danish, one could have seen that the facts of the matter were given in the article in question.
Formanden. — Jeg tror, jeg må sige, at det spørgsmål ikke kan accepteres. Det er virkelig ikke relevant til det spørgsmål, Parlamentet behandler.
Mr Boyes. — Is it in order for a Council member who is asked a question with good intent to insult the Member who asked the question?
Da spørgeren ikke er til stede, vil spørgsmål nr. 90 blive besvaret skriftligt (').
President. — As the author is not present, Question No 67 will be answered in writing.
Spørgsmål nr. 91 af Alavanos (H-435/82):
Question No 68, by Mr Bonde (H-354/82):
1982 udligningsafgiften på æbler, der importeres fra Chile til EF-lande.
But I think we can call it tu quoque and leave it at that and I hope the President-in-Office and Mr Boyes will accept that.
For det tredje foruroliger Deres svar mig lidt, for når jeg har stillet dette spørgsmål, som er et aktuelt spørgsmål om et problem i forbindelse med menneskerettigheder, så er det netop fordi det er på tide at gøre noget under hensyntagen til, at der er kommet en ny regering.
Has the Council authorized the Commission to conduct an essay competition for 12-14 year olds, with a week in Paris as the prize, and if so, will it state which article of the Treaty of Rome empowers it to authorize such competitions in schools in the Community?
Dette er ikke blot et teknisk spørgsmål, det er i høj grad et politisk spørgsmål, der generelt vedrører Fællesskabets forbindelser med den afskyelige junta i Chile.
Mr Ellemann-Jensen, Presidentrin-Office of the Council. — (DA) Mr Bonde should be aware that the activities of the Commission's information offices are the sole responsibility of the Commission, so that it is not for the Council to authorize the Commission to do anything of the nature raised by Mr Bonde.
Ellemann-Jensen. — Jeg beklager, hvis anvendelsen af udtrykket »påståede« skulle have skabt misforståelser.
Mrs Hammerich. — (DA) I certainly do not think that what the taxpayers' money is spent on,is immaterial.
Det har bestemt ikke været min mening på den måde at nedprioritere betydningen af spørgsmålet.
Are you aware that, in the same issue of 'Ung i EF', taxpayers' money was used for propaganda implying to young people that there would be no young people unemployed in the Community in five years' time?
Moreland. — (EN) Jeg formoder, at hvis man kan stille tillægsspørgsmål om Den dominikanske Republik efter mit spørgsmål om Grenada, kunne jeg stille tillægsspørgsmål om Grenada efter et spørgsmål om Den dominikanske Republik! Men De skal ikke være bange, fru formand, det gør jeg ikke!
Mr Bonde. — (DA) Does the President-in-Office not think that the Commission is also bound by the general principle of legality, which states that there must be positive authority to take action, and particularly to take action in t,he field of education, which as far as I know is not covered by any provisions in the Treaty of Rome?
Ellemann-Jensen, formand for udenrigsministrene. — Menneskerettighedssituationen i Chile har ligesom i en række andre lande bestandig givet anledning til bekymring iblandt De Ti.
President. — Question No 69 has already been answered during the debate this morning on oral questions on EEC-United States relations.
Jeg har, ud fra formandens svar, en lumsk mistanke om, at han har en oversættelse, som adskiller sig lidt fra teksten i mit oprindelige spørgsmål.
Question No 70 has been withdrawn by its author and postponed to the November part-session.
Jeg vil dog ikke desto mindre gerne stille ham dette spørgsmål.
Question No 71, by Mr Mart (H-371/82):
Mener han ikke som jeg, at når det drejer sig om forhold, som de i mit og hr. Gallands spørgsmål nævnte, bør Fællesskabet gennem sine udenrigsministre ikke være bange for at gøre brug af sin magt?
Mr Ellemann-Jensen. — (DA) I must say that I was surprised at the question.
Det er den slags spørgsmål, hvor Fællesskabet bør gøre sin indflydelse gældende og lægge pres på et sådant land, når der begås brud på menneskerettigheder.
The background to the question is apparently an article in a magazine entitled 'Ung i EF', in which young people were asked to write an essay on the Community with a view to selecting someone to attend an exhibition in Paris.
Det forhold, at Fællesskabet interesserer sig for det problem, som hr. Galland rejste, burde skræmme den dominikanske regering, og man kunne da bestemt være lidt mere magtfuld her.
This exhibition is organized and financed by private persons who approached the Commission through the French Min istry of Education and asked the Commission for its
Formanden. — Jeg tror, at vi faktisk er færdig med alle spørgsmålene.
President
Jeg påskønner i høj grad Deres venlige kommentar, og jeg vil derfor også gerne benytte denne lejlighed til at takke Parlamentet for dets samarbejde i arbejdet med at komme igennem spørgetiden og takke Rådets formand for den måde, hvorpå han har besvaret vore spørgsmål.
To be exact, in that year Greek imports in agricultural products from the EEC countries amounted to 40 100 million drachma, while the corresponding exports of agricultural products amounted to only 30 100 million drachma. Consequently, the trade balance in agricultural products showed a deficit for Greece of 10 000 million drachma.
Spørgetiden er afsluttet (') (2).
Is it conceivable 'that the Council could approve appropriations for this purpose? pose?
Enright. — (EN) Fru formand, jeg er sikker på, at det er en bemærkning til forretningsordenen, som De vil acceptere.
Mr Adamou. — (GR) My question specifically con cerned the balance of trade in agricultural products between Greece and the EEC, which is showing a dificit to Greece for the first time.
Jeg vil gerne lykønske Dem, fru formand, med at være den første formand, der nogensinde er kommet gennem hele listen af spørgsmål på dagsordenen.
Mr Moreland. — It may be within the competence of the governments to decide on the seat; whether it is within the competence of the governments to decide on the working places is a different matter, I think.
Det er en formidabel præstation, og der er nogle af os fra Det forenede »Dronningerige«, som er meget stolte af Dem.
Mr Ellemann-Jensen. — (DA) Since no project has been submitted to the Council, I am not in a position to answer that question.
(2) Uopsættelig forhandling — Debat om aktuel og uopsæt telig forhandling (taletid) — Dagsorden for det følgende møde : se forhandlingsreferatet.
Mr Ellemann-Jensen. — (DA) This is precisely the aim. As I said in my first reply, the aim is to improve both production and marketing structures in Greece
Spørgsmål nr. 7 afAnsquer (H-33 7/82)
President. — Question No 73, by Mr Alavanos, for whom Mr Adamou is deputizing (H-377/82):
Om: Indførelse af faste økonomiske konsultationer mellem Europa og De forenede Stater
From January until May 1982, more than 6 000 000 pairs of shoes were imported into Greece, while another 3 000 000 pairs are still with the customs.
Tilskynder den sidste tids svimlende høje rentesatser ikke Kommissionen til at foreslå faste økonomiske konsultationer mellem Europa og De forenede Stater?
Has the Council considered the problem of Greek footwear production, and what measures is it planning to take to protect it from imminent disaster and to remedy the tremendous social problem created for Greek shoe manufacturers?
Den senere tids høje rentesatser i De forenede Stater har givet anledning til bekymring hos Kommissionen og regeringerne i Fællesskabets medlemsstater.
Since then, production in the Greek steel industry has continued to stagnate, and at the same time the problem of unemployment has become more acute (imports from the EEC of more than 50% of national requirements, production quotas).
Disse problemer, som har forbindelse med den internationale økonomi, skal selvfølgelig ikke blot behandles i en bilateral sammenhæng, meri ligeledes i multilaterale fora, og særlig inden for rammerne af OECD og Den internationale Valutafond. Kommissionen minder i denne sammenhæng om de hyppige henvisninger til disse to fora i stats- og regeringschefernes erklæring fra topmødet i Versailles den 6. juni.
Mr Ellemann-Jensen, President-in-Office of the Council. — (DA) As it has not received any Commission proposal on the subject, the Council has not had to discuss it.
På det bilaterale plan må det konstateres, at der har været snævre og vedvarende kontakter med De forenede Staters regering både på fællesskabsniveau og fra regeringerne i Fællesskabets medlemsstater.
How does the Council envisage the problem of the Greek steel industry, especially as regards full exploitation of the internal market, the problem of aid quotas and of increasing productivity in the Greek steel industry (whose capacity is less than 1 % of the Community's) and the full exploitation of investment possibilities as mentioned in Article 54 of the ECSC Treaty?
Man må ligeledes notere, at der har fundet bilaterale drøftelser sted om spørgsmål af fælles interesse og altså også på det økonomiske og finansielle område under de drøftelser mellem EF og USA, som regelmæssigt er blevet afholdt i flere år.
Mr Adamou. — (GR) Quite apart from the memorandum from the Greek Government — which we con sider inadequate and which looks as if it will be con signed to oblivion in view of the eight months the Commission has already taken over replying — the problems of the Greek footwear industry were there before, and that is why I would like a specific answer from the President-in-Office without any excuses.
Spørgsmål nr. 8 af Flanagan (H-343/82)
Mr Ellemann-Jensen, President-in-Office of the Council. — (DA) The question relates to the steel industry in Greece.
Om: Rationel anvendelse af energi inden for transportsektoren
President. — Question No 74, By Mr Efremidis, for whom Mr Adamou is deputizing (H-379/82):
Vil Kommissionen i enkeltheder redegøre for tidligere aktioner eller for aktioner, hvorom der i fremtiden vil blive fremsat forslag på fællesskabsplan, som har fremmet eller vil bidrage til at fremme rationel anvendelse af energi inden for transportsektoren, især i betragtning af, at transport tegner sig for 25 % af Fællesskabets forbrug af olie produkter?
When will the Council adopt the two directives on the restriction of the use of asbestos and on the protection of workers from the health risks of asbestos; does it intend to speed up the process as a result of the British Government's decision to enact its own law to reduce the amount of asbestos dust in places of work from 1 January 1983?
Kommissionen er klar over størrelsen af energiforbruget i transportsektoren, da dette i 1980 udgjorde 24,5 % (søtransport ikke inkluderet) af Fællesskabets samlede energiforbrug.
Mr Ellemann-Jensen, President-in-Office of the Council. — (DA) Work within the Council on the two asbestos directives is currently proceeding apace.
Transport tegner sig for 44 % af Fællesskabets olieforbrug og er for 98 % vedkommende afhængig af olie.
However, until such time as the directives are approved, any national measure to provide better protection against the dangers of asbestos is to be welcomed.
Disse tal viser vigtigheden af at vise denne sektor, som er den mest udsatte med hensyn til olie, større opmærksomhed.
Mr Sherlock. — I must join with the two previous speakers in pressing the President-in-Office a little more firmly still upon this and asking how the work of Council could in this case be made easier.
Efter den første oliekrise i 1973/74 forelagde Kommissionen derfor i forbindelse med fællesskabsprogrammet om en rationel anvendelse af energi Rådet to henstillinger, som blev vedtaget den 4. maj 1976 ('), hvoraf den ene sigtede på landevejskøretøjer og en forbedring af førernes adfærd, og den anden på passagerbefordring i bymæssige områder.
He has had an initial praiseworthy document from the Commission; it has been amended, thoughtfully and in the light of the most modern evidence on this distressing subject, by this House; it is the subject of an admirable report by his questioner today, Mrs Weber, and is based on a guideline, a framework document of which I was the rapporteur, which gives him a perfect example of how swiftly and well he can adopt these pro ceedings. I would submit to him that what is lacking is perhaps the will.
Rådet vedtog i december 1980 et direktiv om motordrevne køretøjers brændstofforbrug (2), idet man fastsatte en metode til måling af brændstofforbrug ved 90 og 120 km i timen og ved kørsel i bymæssige områder.
Mrs Weber. — (DE) May I ask the President-in-Office whether it would not be possible to speed up work on these two directives, particularly since they have been around since 1979 and 1980, respectively, and the Council is not normally so averse to reaching its decisions while Parliament is still working on the matter.
Kommissionen har økonomisk støttet en raekke projekter om energibesparelser indenfor transport siden 1975 i forbindelse med forsknings- og udviklingsprogrammet og i 1978 i forbindelse med demonstrationsprogrammet om energibesparelser.
In view of the scientific findings already available to us, I do not think we can take any further risk of more workers contracting cancer and possibly dying simply because the Council is unable to reach a decision quickly.
Transport er ligeledes behandlet i rapporten om vurdering af Fællesskabets demonstrationsprogrammer inden for energibesparelser og alternative energikilder (3), som Kommis sionen nylig har sendt til Europa-Parlamentet, og hvor det understreges, at væsentlige energibesparelser kun kan opnås gennem en transportpolitik, hvori retningslinjerne klart er angivet.
Mr Ellemann-Jensen. — (DA) I totally disagree that there is a lack of will, and I think we should welcome the fact that the work done by Parliament has resulted in a number of amendments being submitted within the last month — amendments which will naturally be given due consideration by the Council.
