Mener han derfor ikke, at siden de fleste ofre i denne situation, både i Etiopien og i Sahel-området, skal findes blandt børnene, så er beslutningen om at sende de mængder af tørmælk, som han nævnte — i betragtning af, at vi har næsten 900 000 tons på lager — til disse områder rent faktisk latterlig?
Would he not think there fore that since the main casualties in this situation, both in Ethiopia and in the Sahel region, are amongst the children, the decision to send to these regions the amounts of powdered milk he has mentioned — considering that we have nearly 900 000 tonnes in stock — is in fact derisory?
Vil Rådet overveje at ændre sin holdning i denne henseende for at sikre, at der afsendes tilstrækkeligt med mælk — vi har, som De ved, masser af det — for at lindre især børnenes lidelser? ser?
Would the Council consider changing its attitude in this regard to make sure that sufficient milk is sent — we have plenty of it, as you know — in order to alleviate the suffering of the children particularly?
Vil udenrigsministrene øge deres bestræbelser på at sikre udrejsetilladelse til sovjetiske jøder som f.eks. Ida Nudel, der for alt i verden ønsker at blive forenet med deres familier, der bor uden for Sovjetunionen?
Will the Foreign Ministers intensify their efforts to secure the release of Soviet Jews, such as Ida Nudel, who desperately wish to join their families living outside the Soviet Union?
O'Keeffe. — (EN) Jeg takker for det ærede medlems venlige bemærkninger.
Mr O'Keeffe. — I appreciate the kind remarks of the honourable Member.
Jeg ville bestemt gerne lægge nogle af mine egne personlige følelser i dette spørgsmål, men det er jeg forhindret i som formand for Rådet.
I certainly would like to inject some of my own personal feelings into this question, but I am constrained by my Council hat.
O'Keeffe, formand for udenrigsministrene. — (EN) De Ti vil fortsat omhyggeligt følge sagen vedrørende fru Nudel, og de vil ved enhver given lejlighed hen lede de sovjetiske myndigheders opmærksomhed på de forpligtelser, de har påtaget sig i henhold til slut akten fra Helsinki og det afsluttende dokument fra Madrid, der indeholder bestemmelser om genforening af familier.
Mr O'Keeffe, President-in-Office of the Foreign Ministers. — The Ten will continue to follow the case of Mrs Nudel carefully and to draw the attention of the Soviet authorities, whenever appropriate, to the com mitments the latter have undertaken in the Helsinki Final Act and in the Madrid concluding document, which include provisions relating to the reunification of families.
Ewing (RDE). — (EN) Jeg er glad for, at formanden især nævnede den tragiske sag vedrørende Ida Nudel, fordi det var et spørgsmål, der meget venligt blev underskrevet af et stort flertal i Parlamentet.
Mrs Ewing (RDE). — I am glad the President-in-Office mentioned particularly the sad case of Ida Nudel, because that was a question very kindly signed by a great majority in this House.
Alle dis se menneskerettighedsager er sørgelige, men her er der et tilfælde, hvor damens liv nu skal afkortes.
All these human rights cases are sad, but this is a case where the lady's life is now to be shortened.
Ærlig talt, hvis hun ikke bliver løsladt, vil hun aldrig se sin familie igen.
Frankly, if she does not get released, she will never see her family again.
Det er et af de værste tilfælde.
It is one of the worst cases.
Selvfølgelig er de alle slemme.
Of course, they are all bad.
Samtidig synes jeg ikke, og her taler jeg på Rådets vegne, at det er helt fair at sige, at Fællesskabets bestræbelser er latterlige.
At the same time, speaking on behalf of the Council, I do not think it is fully fair to say that the efforts of the Community are derisory.
På den anden side tror jeg bestemt, at i den udstrækning, vi som et velhavende Fællesskab af nationer kan, bør vi søge efter muligheder for inden for Fællesskabet og i andre fleresidede organisationer at optrappe vore bestræbelser for at opnå en større forståelse af problemerne vedrørende sult, fattigdom, underernæring og sygdom i de under udviklede dele af verden.
On the other hand, I certainly believe that insofar as we can, as a wealthy com munity of nations, we should be seeking ways, within the Community and in other multilateral organizations, of stepping up our efforts to achieve a greater understanding of the problems of hunger, destitution, malnutrition and disease in the underdeveloped parts of the world.
Jeg lægger ikke skjul på, at jeg er en af dem, som ved enhver lejlighed vil tilslutte mig dem, som føler, at de rige nationer i verden har et større ansvar end det, der for øjeblikket forvaltes af dem.
I make no bones about it that I am one of those who will, at every opportunity, join with those who feel that the richer nations of the world have a greater responsibility than is being discharged by them at the present time.
O'Keeffe. — (EN) Jeg forstår, og jeg værdsætter det ærede medlems bekymring.
Mr Balfe (S). — On a point of order, Madam President, there is a tradition of a reasonable fullness of
Der er tradition for, at svarene i Parlamentet er rimeligt fuldstændige.
The President-in-Office used the phrase 'whenever appropriate'.
Formanden. — Dette er ikke et indlæg til forretningsordenen, hr. Balfe.
Could he be a little more specific and tell us one type of action that he might be prepared to take
Det er kun fair over for Parlamentet, at jeg gør det.
Debates of the European Parliament
O'Keeffe til et ekspertmøde om menneskelige kontakter i Bern i april 1986.
There are various approaches that can be made to the Soviet authorities in regard to an individual case, such as Ida Nudel or others of a similar nature, or in regard to the general problem.
Formanden. — Spørgsmål nr. 86 af Marshall (H142/83) er udsat til næste mødeperiode.
Approaches can be made in a well-publicized joint démarche which perhaps would be decided on by all the Ten.
teral basis og anvende stille, ikke offentliggjort diplomati.
The other alternative is to have an approach on a bilateral basis and use quiet unpublicized diplomacy.
Det er op til De Ti at beslutte, hvilken retning slinje man vil følge i den pågældende situation.
It is a matter for decision by the Ten as to which line to follow in any particular situation.
I mange tidligere tilfælde har den fælles démarche, der var gjort bekendt for offentligheden, ikke været særlige effektiv.
In many cases in the past the well-publicized joint démarche has not been very effective.
Der skal tages beslutning om, hvorvidt den anden type tilnærmelse, som jeg omtalte, kan eller måske vil give bedre resultater.
It is a matter for decision whether the other type of approach which I mentioned can or might bring better results.
Om : Brug af plastickugler i Nordirland
Subject: Use of plastic bullets in Northern Ireland. land.
Balfe (S). — (EN) Kan formanden fortælle os, hvilken af de to tilnærmelsesmetoder han følte var den mest egnede at anvende i tilfældet dr. Ray Hooker, som han for nylig tog op, da han var i San José?
Mr Balfe (S). — Could the President-in-Office tell us which of the two approaches he felt was the most appropriate to take in the case of Dr Ray Hooker, which he raised recently when he was in San José?
Under begivenhederne i Nordirland i august 1984 blev to mennesker dræbt og type tyve andre såret af plastickugler.
Events in Northern Ireland in August 1984 have resulted in two deaths and 20 people injured after being hit by plastic bullets.
Hvilke skridt agter udenrigsministrene at tage i betragtning af, at Europa-Parlamentet i maj 1982 vedtog en beslutning, i hvilken medlemsstaterne opfordredes til at forbyde brugen af plastickugler, og især på baggrund af Storbritanniens gentagne krænkelser af denne beslutning; er udenrigsministrene villige til at aflægge beretning for Europa-Parlamentet om deres drøftelser om dette emne?
In view of the resolution adopted by the European Parliament in May 1982 calling on the Member States to prohibit the use of plastic bullets, what action do the Foreign Ministers intend to take, particularly in view of the United Kingdom's persistent failure to comply with this request?
O'Keeffe, formand for udenrigsministrene. — (EN) Spørgsmålet ligger uden for rammerne af det europæiske politiske samarbejde.
Are the Foreign Ministers prepared to report to the European Parliament on their discussions of this matter?
Chambeiron (COM). — (FR) Jeg vil ikke sige, et jeg er tilfreds med svaret fra formanden for Rådet, efter som der ikke var noget svar.
Mr O'Keeffe, President-in-Office of the Foreign Ministers. — This matter lies outside the scope of European political cooperation.
O'Keeffe. — (EN) Fremgangsmåden i dette tilfælde blev ikke gjort særlig kendt for offentligheden, men vi håber, at den med tiden vil give nogle resultater.
Mr O'Keeffe. — The approach adopted here was not a highly publicized one, but we are hopeful that, in time, it may bring some results.
Som den fungerende formand lovede under drøftelsen med Pariamentes politiske udvalg i Dublin den 19. september, blev spørgsmålet vedrørende kidnapningen af dr. Hooker forelagt for den costarikanske regering på konferencen, der fornylig blev afholdt i San José mellem De ti, Spanien og Portugal, Contadoragruppen og de centralamerikanske lande.
As the President-in-Office promised at the colloquy with Parliaments Political Affairs Committee in Dublin on 19 September, the kidnapping of Dr Hooker was raised with the Costa Rican government at the conference held recently in San José between the Ten, Spain and Portugal, the Contadora group and the Central American countries.
Costa Ricas myndigheder oplyste den fungerende formand om, at dr. Hooker ikke blev holdt fanget på costaricansk ter ritorium, og at han, så vidt de kunne dømme, var i Nicaragua.
Costa Rica's authorities informed the President-in-Office that Dr Hooker was not being held on Costa Rican territory and that, as far as they were con cerned, he was in Nicaragua.
Det var os ikke muligt at fastslå noget yderligere med hensyn til denne sag.
We were unable to ascertain anything further in regard to this case.
Også dér drejer det sig om menneskerettighederne.
Mr Andrews (RDE). — In view of the lack of res ponse from the Soviet Union to approaches made by the Ten on Dr Sakharov and others and of the position in Prague, where the West German Embassy has been virtually taken over by East Germans seeking refuge, is it not time to renegotiate and have a look at the Helsinki agreement on human rights?
Andrews (RDE). — (EN) I betragtning af manglen på svar på fra Sovjetunionen på de tilnærmelser, der er gjort af De Ti i sagen vedrørende dr. Sakharov og andre, og i betragtning af situationen i Prag, hvor den vesttyske ambassade praktisk talt er blevet overtaget af østtyskere, som har søgt tilflugt dertil, er det da ikke på tide at genforhandle og se nærmere på Hel-sinki-aftalen vedrørende menneskerettigheder?
I am amazed, however, that he should be telling us that this matter lies outside the scope of European pol itical cooperation since, if I have understood correctly what he said just now in answer to other questions, it is a matter for the Council of Ministers when human rights in far-off countries are involved.
O'Keeffe. — (EN) Jeg er bange for, at svaret ikke altid er at genforhandle aftaler.
Mr O'Keeffe. — I am afraid that the answer is not always in the area of re-negotiating agreements.
Hvis de eksisterende aftaler blev overholdt fuldstændigt, ville problemet må ske slet ikke opstå.
If agreements in existence were fully adhered to, the question might not arise at all.
Det generelle spørgsmål vedrørende genforening af familier har dog været genstand for omfattende for handling i CSCE-sammenhæng. Bestemmelser herfor og for andre former for menneskelig kontakt, f.eks. familiebesøg og giftermål mellem stasborgere fra for skellige stater blev vedtaget i slutakten efter vestligt krav.
In putting this question — which is not just a passing whim but a point we have been constantly making for some two years now — we simply wanted to remind you that a majority in this Parliament adopted a resolution on this subject in May 1982.
Er det ikke på tide nu for briterne at indtage en positiv holdning og standse brugen af plastickugler i de seks grevskaber?
Is it not time now for the British to take a positive position and withdraw plastic bullets from use in the six counties?
Balfe (S). — (EN) Mener udenrigsministrene ikke, at deres egen anseelse i verden ville blive stærkt forøget, hvis de kunne sørge for menneskerettighederne inden for dette Fællesskab, når de taler om andre folks menneskerettigheder?
Mr Balfe (S). — Do the Foreign Ministers not con sider that their own standing in the world would be greatly enhanced if when they talk about other people's human rights, they were to sort out human rights within this Community?
Ønsker De ikke at gentage hr. Peter Barrys udtalelse fra sidste måned om, at han ville glæde sig over et forbud mod plastickugler?
Would he not wish to re-echo the statement made by Mr Peter Barry last month that he would look forward to the banning of plastic bullets? lets?
O'Keeffe. — (EN) Der er to ting, jeg vil sige.
Mr O'Keeffe. — I have two things to say.
For det første, idet jeg taler på De Tis vegne, kan jeg sige, at dette spørgsmål ikke falder ind under det europæiske politiske samarbejde.
First, speak ing on behalf of the Ten I can say that this matter does not come within European political cooperation.
For det andet blev dette udtalt af min kollega Peter Barry i forbindelse med den irske regeringspolitik i sidste mødeperiode her, og jeg har ikke i sinde at føje noget til dette.
Second, in relation to the policy of the Irish Govern ment, this was enunciated by my colleague Peter Barry at the last partsession here and I do not propose to add anything to it.
O'Keefe. — (EN) Jeg tager det ærede medlems be mærkninger til efterretning og ønsker at minde Dem om, at da hr. Barry kom med sin udtalelse, som De refererer til, talte han som irsk udenrigsminister.
Mr O'Keeffe. — I note the comments of the honourable Member and I would remind him that when Mr Barry made the statement to which he refers he was speaking as Irish Minister for Foreign Affairs.
Formanden. — Spørgsmål nr. 88 af Balfe (H187/84):
President. — I call Question No 88, by Mr Balfe (H187/84):
Vil udenrigsministrene fremsætte en erklæring om støtte fra EF med henblik på at mildne følgerne af tørken i Sahelregionen i Afrika og i Etiopien?
Will the Foreign Ministers make a statement about EEC assistance to alleviate the drought in the Sahel Region in Africa and in Ethiopia?
O'Keeffe, formand for udenrigsministrene. — (EN) Det samme spørgsmål blev rettet til formanden for Rådet, og jeg har allerede givet et svar inden for rammerne heraf.
Mr O'Keeffe, President-in-Office of the Foreign Ministers. — This same question was addressed to the President-in-Office of the Council and I have already provided a reply within that framework.
Alábanos (COM). — (GR) Jeg synes, at formandens besvarelse af dette spørgsmål samt andre spørgsmål, som henviser til forholdene i de forskellige lande i Fællesskabet — såsom Berufsverbot — rejser et mere generelt spørgsmål.
Mr Alavanos (COM). — (GR) I think that the replies by the President-in-Office to this and other questions dealing with situations in the various Community countries, as for example the question of the Berufsverbot, raise a more general problem.
Mit eget tillægsspørgsmål til for manden for udenrigsministrene forsamlet med hen blik på det politiske samarbejde har et lignende ind hold.
My own supplementary question to the President-in-Office of the Foreign Ministers meeting in political cooperation is about this general issue.
Optager forsvaret af menneskerettighederne uden for Fællesskabet dette politiske samarbejdsorgan, og er det ligeglad med forsvaret af menneskerettighederne i Fællesskabets medlemslande?
In the context of EPC, do the Foreign Ministers concern themselves with the defence of human rights outside the Community while ignoring the defence of human rights in the Member States of the Community?
Jeg ville gerne have et klart svar på dette simple spørgsmål.
I should like a clear reply to this simple question.
O'Keeffe. — (EN) Jeg må minde det ærede medlem om, at det politiske samarbejdes funktion er rådføringer og samordning af politikken, og i den sammen hæng kan jeg ikke gå videre, end jeg gjort.
Mr O'Keeffe. — I would remind the honourable Member that the function of political cooperation is to consult and concert policy and, in that context, I can not go any further than I have done.
Balfe (S). — (EN) Jeg vil gerne vide, om ministeren ønsker at afgive en udtalelse om betalingerne og sær skilt bevillingerne til indgåede forpligtelser på næste års budget, og om han mener, at der vil være tilstrækkeligt med midler tilovers, hvis der skæres i en af disse poster, til at forsyne dette område i verden med fødevarehjælp?
Mr Balfe (S). — I wonder if the Minister would like to make a statement about the payments and, separately, the commitment appropriations in next year's budget, and whether he considers that the cut in one will leave sufficient money for food aid to be provided to this area of the world?
Med andre ord, besvare det spørgsmål, jeg stillede sidste gang.
In other words, answer the question I asked last time.
Formanden. — Spørgsmål nr. 89 af Blumenfeld (H185/84):
Mr O'Keeffe. — An opportunity may arise in another context for me to deal with the point raised by the
Europa-Parlamentets forhandlinger
Subject: Export of products of the European armaments industry Reports in the European media concerning the sale of Tornado aircraft to a state in the Middle East have caused concern in the Community.
Blumenfeld (PPE). - (DE) Hr. formand, med al re spekt overrasker det mangelfulde ved dette svar mig ikke, men jeg vil spørge udenrigsminsteren, om han da er parat til endelig at tage de første skridt i dette spørgsmål og tage initiativer i stedet for ganske enkelt at give et referat af forholdene, som de var førhen.
May I ask the Foreign Ministers whether, in cases where Member States of the Community collaborate in the armaments sector, there are common rules governing the export of individual weapons systems manufactured within the Community.
Vi taler om fremtiden, og det er den, vi ønsker at få noget at vide om.
If not, do the Foreign Ministers consider it necessary to adopt a Community export policy for these products?
Hutton (ED). — (EN) Er formanden enig i, at leve ring af våbensystemer medfører en vis grad af politisk tillid mellem parterne, der skriver kontrakt, hvor leverandøren har kontrol over reservedelene?
Mr Hutton (ED). — Would the President-in-Office agree that the supply of weapon systems implies a degree of political confidence between the contracting parties in which the supplier has control over the spare parts?
Er han enig i, at det ville være klogt at gøre det muligt for stater, som ikke er uvenlige over for Europa, at erhverve fly som f.eks. Tornado til deres eget forsvar som led i dialogen mellem disse stater og Europa om regionale strategiske problemer?
Would he agree that it would be prudent to enable States which are not unfriendly to Europe to purchase aircraft such as the Tornado for their own defence as part of their dialogue on regional strategic problems?
Jeg agter ikke at udtrykke en personlig opfattelse.
I do not intend to give a personal opinion.
På De Tis vegne må jeg sige, at der ikke er nogen fællesskabs politik på dette område.
On behalf of the Ten, I have to say there is no common policy in this field.
(Mødet hævet kl. 19.00) (})
(The sitting was adjourned at 19.00)?-
Hvis jeg må tale for mit eget land, har det været adskillige irske regeringers politik ikke at opmuntre salg af potentielt strategiske varer til lande, der er involveret i konflikter, og at underkaste eventuelle ordrer på sådanne varer en meget omhyggelig undersøgelse, hvis varerne er bestemt for lande, der har et tvivlsomt ry med hensyn til menneskerettighederne. tighederne.
Mr Blumenfeld (PPE). — (DE) I should like to say with all due respect that I am not surprised at the inadequacy of this answer, but I should like to ask never theless the President-in-Office of the Foreign Ministers whether he is prepared finally to get round to taking some initial steps in this matter instead of simply referring back to the past. We are talking about the future and we want to know what plans you have.

Agenda for the next sitting: see Minutes.
Om : Kommissærers deltagelse i den nationale valgkamp
Subject: Involvement of Commission Members in election campaigns in their own countries tries
Den danske kommissær har i kronikker i aviserne B.T. og Jyllands-Posten anbefalet den socialdemokratiske liste og rettet personlige angreb på Jens-Peter Bonde, som opstillede på liste N.
In articles in the Danish newspapers B.T. and Jyllands-Posten, the Danish Commissioner recommended the Social Democratic list and made a personal attack on Jens-Peter Bonde, a list N candidate.
Finder Kommissionen det demokratisk acceptabelt, at en kommissær, som ifølge embedets definition er hævet over nationale hensyn, deltager i sit hjemlands valgkamp til EF-Parlamentet med anbefaling af ét parti samt personligt angreb på en kandidat på en anden liste?
Does the Commission consider it democratically acceptable for a Commission Member, who, by virtue of his office, is above national considerations, to become involved in his own county's elections to the European Parliament by recommending one parry and making a personal attack on a candidate on another list?
Det ærede parlamentsmedlem henviser til den artikel af kommissionsmedlem Poul Dalsager, som før valget til Europa-Parlamentet i juni 1984 offentliggjordes i de danske dagblade Jyllands-Posten og B.T,
The honourable Member is referring to the article by Mr Poul Dalsager, Member of the Commission, which appeared before the European Parliament elections in June 1984 in the Danish newspapers Jyllands-Posten and B.T.
Der findes ingen bestemmelse i fællesskabsretten, ifølge hvilken et medlem af Kommissionen forpligter sig til at svigte sin politiske overbevisning under udøvelsen af sit mandat.
There is no provision under Community law which obliges a Member of the Commission to renounce his political convictions during his period of office.
Det er således ikke forbudt et medlem af Kommissionen at være medlem af et politisk parti eller at yde dette parti sin støtte.
Thus there is nothing to prevent a Member of the Commission from belonging to a political party or from supporting such a party.
I øvrigt har Poul Dalsager i den nævnte artikel ikke anbefalet at stemme på et bestemt parti.
Furthermore the said article by Mr Dalsager did not contain any recommendation to vote for a particular party.
Det siger sig selv, at et medlem af Kommissionen har ret til at forsvare sig offentligt mod offentlige angreb.
Indeed, it goes without saying that when a Member of the Commission is publicly attacked, he has the right to defend himself publicly.
Spørgsmål nr. 10 af Normanton (H-109/84)
Question No 10, by Mr Normanton (H-109/84)
Om : Betaling af regninger
Subject: Payment of outstanding accounts
Kommissionen har i de sidste 12 måneder modtaget en voksende mængde klager over den urimelige forsinkelse ved Kommissionens betaling af regninger, især afregning af udgifter, når dette fordres i henhold til kontrakt. Vil den i betragtning heraf præcisere, hvilke skridt der bliver taget med henblik på at løse denne uacceptable situation, eftersom en fortsættelse af denne fremgangsmåde vil få kontrahenter til at afholde sig fra at tilbyde Kommissionen deres tjenesteydelser i fremtiden?
Having heard in the last 12 months a growing number of complaints about the unreasonable delay in payment of accounts by the Commission, and particularly the settlement of expense claims by contractors, will the Commission state clearly what steps are being taken to deal with this unacceptable situation since to continue with this procedure will influence contractors against offering their services in future?
