Desværre må jeg konstatere, at de britiske konservative aldeles ikke har været samarbejdsvillige, og det beklager jeg dybt.
The British Conservatives should start to understand this fact if they want people to get on together.
Haagerup, ordfører. — (EN) Hr. formand, jeg forstår, at ændringsforslag nr. 58 fremsat af hr. McCartin med flere, virkelig er motiveret af ønsket om, at denne betænkning ikke lægges på hylden.
Mr Haagerup (L), rapporteur. — Mr President, I understand that Amendment No 58, tabled by Mr McCartin and others, is really motivated by desire to see that this report is not being shelved.
De krævede derfor, at vi med rimelige mellemrum så på udviklingen.
They there fore asked that we should review the developments at reasonable intervals.
Jeg vil gerne sige til dem, som har fremsat dette ændringsforslag, at der findes andre og bedre måder at rejse spørgsmålet på, hvis de ønsker det, nemlig ved en forespørgsel, ved mundtlig fore spørgsel med forhandling osv. Jeg anmoder derfor hr. McCartin med flere om at trække dette ændrings forslag tilbage.
I suggest to those who have tabled this amendment that there are other and better ways to raise the issue if they wish, namely, by ques tion, by oral questions with debate, etc.
Hr. McCartin, kan De trække det
I therefore ask Mr McCartin and others to withdraw this amendment.

President. — Mr McCartin, can you withdraw it ?
McCartin (PPE). — (EN) Ja, af hensyn til ordføreren vil vi trække ændringsforslaget tilbage.
Mr McCartin (PPE). — Yes, with respect to the rapporteur, we shall withdraw that amendment.

Forældreorlov (fortsættelse)

Formanden. — Hr. Barbi, i henhold til forretningsordenen er det kun på formandens foranledning, at man kan ændre på dagsordenen.
President. — Mr Barbi, the Rules of Procedure state that the order can be changed only at the proposal of the President.
Jeg har allerede tilstrækkeligt med problemer til at kunne ændre afstemningsrækkefølgen, og det ved parlamentarikerne ud mærket.
I have already had enough problems in changing the order of the votes, as the Members know.
Jeg vil ikke ændre noget.
Consequently, I am going to make no more changes.

It is only in the family context that fundamental values can develop properly.
Van Rompuy (PPE), ordfører for udtalelsen fra økonomi- og valutaudvalget. — (NL) Hr. formand, det sker sjældent, at Parlamentet får lejlighed til at udtale sig om forslag, der har en familievenlig karakter.
The disintegration of the family unit has in many cases resulted in social disruptions, and it is therefore of the utmost importance that steps be taken to reassert the strength of the family structure.
Foreliggende forslag til direktiv om forældreorlov er en heldig undtagelse.
What we are dealing with here in the main is a question of mentality and civilization, but that does not mean that government cannot make its contribution too to the establishment of a more family-orientated climate by adopting certain specific measures in the right direction.
I et samfund, der præges i stadig højere grad af individualisme, ensomhed og

'SHIPBUILDING INDUSTRY') After the adoption of the resolution
Vort ændringsforslag rækker længere end ændringsforslaget fra udvalget om sociale anliggender og beskæftigelse, der kun taler om adoptivforældre. Vi ønsker en virkelig omsorg for barnet, og det kan faktisk være andre end adoptivforældre, der påtager sig at sørge for barnet, for eks. bedsteforældre, venner, bekendte eller naboer, der i nødstilfælde kommer til hjælp.
Van Rompuy want to ensure that the children are properly looked after, and it is entirely conceivable that this responsibility might be borne by a person other than the step parents — for instance, grandparents, friends, acquaitances or neighbours — who step in in times of need.
anonymitet er der ved at vokse en bedre forståelse frem for familien.
harmonious way at the same time as fulfilling their family duties.
De grundlæggende livsværdier kan kun komme til udvikling inden for familien.
It is most important, especially in the first years of life, that a child should grow up with its parents, and educationalists tell us that the presence of parents in those first years has a decisive effect on the child's subsequent development.
Familie livets forfald har i mange tilfælde været årsag til forstyrrelser i samfundet. Det er derfor uhyre vigtigt, at der træffes foranstaltninger til at styrke familie strukturen.
It would seem reasonable in the case of a severely handicapped child — and we emphasize the 'severely handicapped' aspect — to extend the parental leave period available to six years.
Det er først og fremmest et spørgsmål om mentalitet, om kultur, men myndighederne kan yde et bidrag til et mere familievenligt klima gennem visse særforanstaltninger.
To make parental leave available for both fathers and mothers, and to keep it available for whenever it is needed, it must be possible to divide the leave period up as required.
Det åbner mulighed for arbejdstagere for på harmonisk vis at gøre fyldest i erhvervslivet og at klare familieopgaverne.
Employers must be given adequate notice so as to keep disruption of work to a minimum.
For at give både faderen og moderen mulighed for at tage orlov og desuden give fri rådighed over orlovsperioden, så den kan tages på det mest belejlige tidspunkt, vil det være nødvendigt, at den til rådighed stående periode kan fordeles på flere adskilte perioder.
As regards short periods of leave for family reasons, the Committee of Inquiry takes the view that the details should be left up to the Member States, given that leave for family reasons can depend very much on the cultural situation in the country concerned.
Arbejdsgiveren må informeres i god tid, således at forstyrelse af arbejds tilrettelæggelsen kan begrænses til et minimum.
We are therefore in favour of making such short periods of leave available for important — as well as pressing — family reasons.
Forslaget går ud på en tre måneders forældreorlov, men jeg vil gerne henvise til eksemplet fra delstaten Baden-Württemberg i Vesttyskland, hvor der er indført et system med opfostringsløn, den såkaldte »storkeordning«.
This proposal is concerned with a three-month period of parental leave, but I should like to draw your attention to the example set by the 'Land' of Baden-Württemberg in Germany, where a system of parental payments has been introduced.
Ordningen indebærer den mulighed, at forældre de første to år kan blive hjemme for at opdrage deres børn og de får udbetalt ca. 5 000 DM om året.
What this amounts to is that parents can decide to stay at home to bring up their children for the first two years, and are paid an annual premium of some DM 5000 for doing so.
Ifølge statistikkerne har 7 000 fædre eller mødre i 1983 gjort brug af denne ordning.
The statistics show that, in 1983, for instance, 7000 fathers or mothers took advantage of this scheme.
Med hensyn til den korte orlov af familiemæssige grunde, mener vort udvalg, at definitionen heraf må overlades til medlemsstaterne.
The benefit paid out during the leave period must be financed from public funds released by making savings on other budgetary items.
Faktisk vil den være afhængig af det enkelte samfunds sædvaner.
This would be possible, for instance, if the additional payments were balanced out by a reduction in the amount of unemployment benefit paid, resulting in turn from parttime work in these temporary jobs.
Vi anmoder derfor om, at denne korte orlov ikke alene gives i nødstilfælde, men også, når der sker vigtige begivenheder i familien.
Baden-Württemberg's pilot scheme shows that this does in fact happen.
Vort udvalg vil gerne gøre det klart, at de eventuelle kriterier, der vil være indeholdt i et europæisk direktiv, ikke må være til skade for eksisterende ordninger, der er bedre.
The Committee of Inquiry wishes to make it clear that any norms incorporated in a European directive must not be allowed to prejudice existing —· and more generous — conditions.
Vi mener også, at de udgifter, der er en følge af forældreorlov, ikke skal udredes af de enkelte virksomheder, for det kunne indebære, at arbejdstagere i f.eks. små og mellemstore virksomheder vil blive udelukket, hvilket vil afsted komme uretfærdig diskriminering.
We believe that the cost element involved in parental leave cannot be borne by individual firms, as that would mean that workers in very small and mediumsized businesses would be effectively excluded from the scheme, thus giving rise to unreasonable discrimination.
Hr. formand det var udtalelsen fra undersøgelsesudvalget om kvindens situation i Europa.
Mr President, that was the opinion of the Committee of Inquiry into the situation of women in Europe.
Som kristelig demokrat vover jeg at påstå, at foreliggende forslag er en garanti for forældrenes frie valg, og at det er en måde at betragte samfundet på, som gerne skulle videreudvikles, fordi det vil forbedre såvel demografien som det samfundsmæssige klima til fordel for både forældre og børn og for samfundets fremtid.
Finally, I should like to say as a Christian-Democrat that this proposal guarantees the free choice of parents in the social context, and that it is a social aim which is increasingly being developed to improve the demographic situation and the social climate in general in the interests of parents, children and the future of our society.
van den Heuvel (S). — (NL) Hr. formand, ærede kolleger, også den socialistiske gruppe glæder sig over Kommissionens initiativ. Det er på ny et bevis på den faste vilje til at ligestille mænd og kvinder i alle livets forhold.
Mrs Van den Heuvel (S). — (NL) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the Socialist Group too is delighted at the initiative taken by the Commission, which is renewed evidence of the determination to achieve equal treatment for men and women in all walks of life.
Jeg vil gentage, hvad jeg allerede har sagt før: takket være Kommissionens beslutsomhed har vi i alt fald noget at byde de europæiske kvinder i valg kampagnen for de europæiske valg. Vi kommer ikke med tomme hænder.
As I said once before, it is thanks to the Commission's resoluteness that we have something to show the women in Europe in the forthcoming European elections.
Phlix (PPE), ordfører for udtalelsen fra undersøgelsesudvalget om kvindens situation i Europa. — (NL) Hr. formand, hr. kommissær, ærede kolleger, undersøgelsesudvalget om kvindens situation glæder sig over forslaget til direktiv om forældreorlov og orlov af familiemæssige årsager og fastslår, at en mere ligelig fordeling af forældrenes ansvar vil have en positiv indflydelse på familielivet og ligestillingen mellem mænd og kvinder.
Mrs Phlix (PPE), draftsman of an opinion for the Committee of Inquiry into the situation of women in Europe. — (NL) Mr President, Mr Natali, ladies and gentlemen, the Committee of Inquiry welcomes this proposal for a directive on parental leave and leave for family reasons, and takes the view that a fair distribution of parental responsibilities will have a beneficial effect on family life and on equality between men and women.
Udvalget mener, at retten til forældreorlov skal være knyttet til barnets effektive pleje, og at denne ret derfor må udvides til også at omfatte dem, der i tilfælde af særlige omstændigheder som sygdom eller
The idea of introducing parental leave is to remove one more obstacle in the way of women — and the social situation being what it is, women will be most directly affected by this measure — who want to go out to work.
Alt for længe har det været sådan i vore lande, at man ønskede at lukke øjnene for, at de i teorien lige chancer i praksis så noget anderledes ud.
For far too long, we have closed our eyes in our coun tries to the fact that the practicalities and the theory of equal opportunities for men and women are two different things entirely.
Der er mange kvinder med børn, der gerne ville deltage i arbejdsprocessen, men der er kun få, der vil lade det gå ud over børnene.
There are plenty of married women with children who would like to become part of the work process, but only very few are willing to let their children suffer for it.
Sålænge der ikke er fundet en god løsning for børnene; vel, sålænge vil de under ordne deres egne ønsker i deres børns interesse. Gid
Our amendment on this point goes further than the one tabled by the Committee on Social Affairs and Employment, which refers only to step-parents.
Formanden. — Jeg ville sandelig ikke drømme om at mene, at Deres indlæg i den henseende var noget vrøvl.
Van de Heuvel children, they will continue to make their own wishes subordinate to the interests of their children.
De har da fuld ret til at fortsætte.
If only the same attitude were a bit more prevalent among fathers too.
Dame Shelagh Roberts (ED), ordfører. — (EN) Til forretningsordenen, hr. formand.
enlarged Bureau when drawing up our agenda ?
Jeg lagde mærke til, at hr. Pattersons tid blev taget, mens De talte.
Like the occupational pensions debate, this one is about a directive — Community legislation — and just look at the House this evening !
Kan jeg få Deres forsikring om, at han får den tid lagt til?
That is no disrespect to Commissioner Natali.
Formanden. — Jeg har talt det, og jeg formoder, at De også appellerer til, at den tid, De har taget, ikke bliver trukket fra heller?
President. — I certainly would not dream of suggesting that your intervention in that regard was rubbish. You are quite entitled to go ahead.
det også havde været tilfældet med fædrene.
May I have your assurance that he will have the time added ?
Det fore liggende direktivforslag går ud på at give begge udearbejdende ægtefæller lejlighed til i tre måneder udelukkende at beskæftige sig med deres børn, og ophæver således en eksisterende ulighed.
One of the proposals contained in this directive, giving both working parents the chance to devote their attention exclusively for three months to their children's welfare, gets rid of one more element of inequality.
Desuden kan vi, ved også at give faderen denne ret, gennem bryde den næsten automatiske rollefordeling mellem mænd og kvinder.
And, what is more, by giving fathers the right to parental leave too, we do have a chance to break through what is still a fairly automatic fathermother role pattern.
Desværre viser tallene fra f.eks. de skandinaviske lande, hvor man har udmærkede forældreorlovsordninger, at mændene, fædrene, gør forfærdende lidt brug af de eksisterende ordninger.
Unfortunately, the statistics we have from such places as the Scandinavian countries, where excellent systems are in force for parental leave, show that fathers make much less use of the facilities available.
Jeg synes, at vor kollega Van Rompuy gik lovlig let hen over det; kendelig havde han ikke engang gjort sig den ulejlighed at undersøge, hvor mange fædre og hvor mange mødre det drejede sig om.
I think Mr Van Rompuy made things rather too easy for himself ; he had clearly not taken the trouble to work out how many fathers and how many mothers were likely to be affected.
Men disse tal ændrer ikke ved den store principielle betydning af de foreliggende forslag.
President. — I have counted that, and I assume you are also appealing that the time you have taken up will not be deducted either ?
Patterson (ED). — (EN) Hr. formand, det er absolut ikke nogen kritik af Dem personligt.
Mr Patterson (ED). — Mr President, I have absolutely no criticism of you personally.
Det må jeg gøre helt klart.
May I make this absolutely clear.
Jeg har mange gange foreslået, at dette Parlament tog sin lovgivende rolle mere alvorligt, og når vi taler om et direktiv af en sådan betydning, burde det virkelig tages mere alvorligt af det udvidede præsidium, når dagsordenen bliver skrevet.
I have suggested many times that this Parliament should take its legislative role more seriously, and when we are talking about a directive of this importance it really ought to be taken seriously by the enlarged Bureau in drawing up the agenda.
Det er beklageligt at mænd — og jeg henviser igen til de skandinaviske erfaringer — stadigvæk ikke har forstået, at de snyder sig selv som mennesker ved overvejende at overlade omsorgen for børnene til deres ægtefæller.
It is regrettable that men — and I would refer you here again to the experience in Scandinavia — are clearly still selling themselves short in human terms by leaving the job of looking after children mainly to their wives.
Desværre vil dette nok ikke gå op for dem fra den ene dag til den anden.
Unfortunately, the idea or' sharing responsibilities is not the kind of thing that is likely to become accepted overnight.
Vi må have lidt tålmodighed med menneskelige væsener, der åbenbart er blevet så forkrøblede af samfundsmønsteret, at de ikke kender livets virkelige værdier.
But I suppose we should show a little understanding at least for human beings who have clearly been so spoilt by social realities that they now fail to recognize what is really important in life.
Men at have forståelse for mennesker må ikke være ensbetydende med at acceptere deres handlinger.
But understanding people's attitudes does not mean accepting them too.
Derfor er det rigtigt, at direktivets artikel 11 gør arbejdsgiverne udtrykkeligt opmærksom på, at denne ordning omfatter arbejdstagere af begge køn.
It is therefore a good thing that Article 11 of the directive draws employers' attention to the fact that this directive applies to both mothers and fathers.
Begge har mulighed for at tage forældreorlov eller orlov af familiemæssige grunde.
Both have the chance to take parental leave and leave for family reasons.
Egentlig er det uforståeligt, at vi i vore lande, i 1984, endnu har behov for et sådant direktiv.
When you think of it it is really incredible that, at this time in 1984, we should still need this kind of directive in our countries.
Det kan ikke gå hurtigt nok med at få denne ret etableret.
The right to parental leave is something which cannot come quickly enough.
Men lad mig nu tale om den foreliggende tekst.
Now let me talk about the text in front of us.
Vi taler om en ny social ydelse i mange lande, og principielt må det være rigtigt at støtte tanken om forældre orlov.
We are talking about a new social benefit in many countries and, in principle, it must be right to support the idea of parental leave.
Det, vi virkelig taler om, er at give både mødre og fædre, hvis de har et barn under to år, ret til at gå til deres arbejdsgiver og sige: »Jeg bliver nødt til at bede om fri til at passe mit barn«.
What we are actually talking about is giving both mothers and fathers the right, if they have a child under two, to go tc their employers and say : I need time off to look after my child.
Og vi ønsker at forhindre, at arbejdsgiveren siger: »Ærgerligt!
And we want to prevent the employer saying : tough !
Jeg er ked af det, men hvis du gør det, så fyrer vi dig.« Så vi bygger en ny rettighed ind i vore systemer, der sætter familierne i stand til at være sammen om at opdrage deres børn, og det må være rigtigt.
I'm sorry, if you do that we will sack you. So we are building a new right into our systems which will enable families to be together and to bring up their children — and that must be right.
Men alle rettigheder betyder omkostninger.
However, all rights entail costs.
Det betyder ikke, at man ikke skal gennemføre disse rettigheder, men det betyder alligevel, at man må se på, hvor meget det vil koste, fordi hvis det koster for meget, så bliver det ikke til noget — man vil aldrig opnå disse rettigheder.
It does not mean you should not implement those rights, but it does mean you should have regard to how much it will cost you, because if it costs too much it will never happen — you will never get those rights.
Jeg anmoder Kommissionen om at fremskynde den videre udvikling, og Rådet om på kort sigt at tage beslutninger desangående.
I would appeal to the Commission to see that the directive is implemented with all due speed, and to the Council to take the requisite decisions in the near future.
Måske kan det være et af resultaterne af det initiativ, den franske minister for kvindens rettigheder min forhenværende politiske gruppefælle Yvette Roudy tog, da hun indkaldte til et informelt møde på den internationale kvindedag for at drøfte disse problemer.
This may be one of the fruits of the initiative taken by the French Minister for Women's Rights, my former colleague Yvette Roudy, in convening an informal council meeting on these problems on the international Day of the Woman.
Forhåbentlig vil det nu blive lettere at nå til bunds i problemerne på førstkommende samling af socialministre i juni måned.
It is to be hoped that this will have made it easier for the forthcoming Social Council in June to get down to brass tacks.
Patterson (ED). — (EN) Hr. formand, må jeg begynde, som jeg begyndte, da jeg talte under forhandlingen om de erhvervstilknyttede pensioner, med at protestere mod de prioriteter, det udvidede præsidium har givet, da det affattede vor dagsorden?
Mr Patterson (ED). — Mr President, may I begin as I began when I spoke on the occupational pensions debate, by protesting at the priorities exhibited by the
For det andet er vi enige med kommissionsmedlemmet — jeg er ikke ofte i den situation, at jeg er enig med hr. Richard, men i dette tilfælde er jeg — i, at man absolut ikke kan forestille sig en ny social ret, der medfører direkte byrder på de offentlige midler.
First of all, the posi tion of small businesses. It is very much more difficult for a small business — my group has taken the figure of ten or under employees — to give someone three months off at sometimes fairly short notice, and that is why we have supported an amendment excluding companies of under ten.
Desuden, og hermed vil jeg gerne slutte mit indlæg, hr. formand, skal alle arbejdstagere have samme rettigheder, uagtet det familiemønster han eller hun lever i, dvs. både de gifte og de, som bor sammen må kunne gøre brug af denne ret.
I should like to conclude, Mr President, with the thought that each and every worker has the same rights, regardless of his or her family relations ; in other words, both married people and people living together must be able to claim this right.
Hvis man gør det, vil jeg her sige til de mennesker, der er til stede, at så bliver det aldrig til noget.
The committee in its wisdom has disregarded what the Commission said on this matter and has made it compulsory for parental leave to be compensated by finance out of public funds.
I får aldrig forældreorlov, fordi ingen af vore regeringer — hverken min eller andres — vil gå ind på det.
Now if you do that, I submit to those people who are present, it will never happen ; you will never get parental leave because none of our governments — mine or anybody else's — is going to agree to this.
Derfor håber jeg, at Parlamentet vil høre på, hvad kommissionsmedlem Richard sagde om offentlig finansiering, inden han tog tilbage til Bruxelles.
Therefore I hope the House will take into account what Commissioner Richard said before he went back to Brussels about the matter of public finance.
Der er imidlertid én ting, der virkelig tiltaler mig i dette direktivforslag, og det er, at det giver nye rettigheder til mænd.
However, one thing that does attract me very much to this draft directive is the fact that it produces new rights for men.
Mænd har trods alt ret til at se deres familie af og til — skønt meget få medlemmer af Europa-Parlamentet synes at have denne ret.
Men do have the right, after all, to see their families from time to time — although very few Members of the European Parliament seem to get that right.
Derfor mener jeg, at det principielt er et virkelig godt direktivforslag.
And therefore I suggest that, in principle, it is a very good draft directive.
