Mine damer og herrer, Polen, som jeg netop er kommet tilbage fra, fortjener i øjeblikket mere end nogen anden Parlamentets interesse og alle de konkrete, finansielle og budgetmæssige foranstaltninger, der er os tilladt, og som vil gøre det muligt for polakkerne at overleve sin.
Ladies and gentlemen, I have just come back from Poland and that country deserves the interest of our Assembly more than others at present; all possible practical, financial and budgetary measures should be taken in its favour to enable the Poles to survive.
For det er det, det drejer sig om.
That is the heart of the matter.
At leve eller, det er det problem, der rejser sig for millioner af mænd, kvinder og børn, gamle og handicappede, som jeg i Warszawa, Czestochowa og andre steder har kunnet se triste skarer af-
There is a problem of life or death for millions of men, women and children, elderly and handicapped people whose melancholy queues I was able to see in Warsaw, in Czestic'howa and elsewhere.
Det var hensigten med de i 1977 ændrede finansielle bestemmelser at give Fællesskabet større selvstændig vægt og gøre det finansielt uafhængigt.
Mr President, Mr Arndt criticized the Commission for not letting Parliament know earlier about its intentions.
Budgetudvalgets fortolkning, der teknisk og juridisk sikkert er mulig, er forkert, da den er politisk forkert og fællesskabsfjendtlig.
He pointed out that the lateness with which we brought forward the proposal made it difficult for Parliament to spend the money in time.
Formålet med bestemmelserne den gang var fællesskabsvenligt at fremme den europæiske union.
Indeed he asked me the specific question whether, if this budget were passed, we could spend the money in time.
Lad os dog være ærlige: Som følge af øjeblikkelige vanskeligheder i medlemsstaterne skal princippet nu kastes over bord, fordi den tyske finansminister beklageligvis for øjeblikket har problemer med at udligne sit nationale budget og derfor retter sin begærlighed mod vort overskud.
I sympathize with his point about the lateness of the proposal and the consequences that flow from it, but I first of all want to point out that we did, in fact, send the proposal forward on 4 October.
Mine damer og herrer, man har sagt Dem, at dette beløb på 10 mio ECU er til rådighed.
Ladies and gentlemen, the 10 million ECU are avail able.
For det andet kan dette beløb bruges endnu i år, og jeg takker hr. Langes, fordi han har lovet os at lade det uddele, selv om det ikke vil kunne opfylde de behov, der er tale om i Polen.
Moreover, the appropriations can be spent this year and I am grateful to Mr Langes for promising to see to their distribution although these funds will not be sufficient to meet the needs existing in Poland.
For det tredje og for at svare på en mening, man undertiden har givet udtryk for, må jeg sige, at når man har mødt den polske vicepremierminister, der har til opgave at fordele hjælpen, kan jeg forsikre Dem om, at denne hjælp, som vi yder Polen, nok skal nå frem, og at den når alle dem, som vi først og fremmest ønsker at den skal gå til — helt bortset fra, gentager jeg, enhver politisk betragtning — det vil sige til de gamle, til børnene, til de handicappede, til dem som er mest ulykkelige, og som har det største behov.
Thirdly, in response to an opinion which has some times been voiced, let me tell you that I met the Polish Vice-Premier responsible for the distribution of aid: I am able to assure you that the aid which we grant to Poland actually reaches that country and benefits all those whom we wish it to reach as a matter of priority — laying all political considerations aside — i.e. the elderly, children, the handicapped, those who are the most unfortunate and in the greatest need in our society.
Derfor skal vi kaste princippet om de egne indtægter over bord. Det kan jeg, kære kolleger, ikke gå med til.
Thank you, Mr President, and a particular word of thanks to all those Members who vote in favour of this amendment.
Det bringer dog heller ikke skatteborgerne noget.
Secondly, the House must really bear in mind that it is only possible to bring forward a specific budgetary proposal when one has the material to go on.
Måske udlignes det nationale budget ganske vist nu, således at man siger: »Storartet, som finansministeren dog kan trylle!«.
It would have been quite possible for us to have said in July, 'It looks as if expenditure on agriculture is under shooting, but we don't quite know what it will be and we will bring forward a proposal which may or may not be apposite'.
Men når vi til næste år ikke længere har noget overskud, forhøjes momssatsen, og så går en tilsvarende del af momsen uden om de nationale statskasser.
Members with more experience in this House, such as Mr Lange who will be speaking after me, very well know that it is always at about the same time of year that we bring forward these proposals, partly for the reason I have mentioned, the agricultural reason, and partly, of course, because it is only then that we are fully in a position to take account of the changes in the VAT payments of the Member States.
Mine damer og herrer, vi må vælge en politik, men jeg har sagt i dag, at det er ikke om det, jeg vil koncentrere mit indlæg.
Mr Tugendhat, Vice-President of the Commission. — Mr President, may I begin my remarks by saying that I hope very much that Mr Fanton will return to the
På torsdag vil udenrigsminister Genscher komme her og redegøre for sin plan om den europæiske union.
Mr Arndt's specific question, however — and I hope that he is in a position to read this in the 'rainbow' tomorrow — was whether we would be able to spend the money we have asked for if the budget is passed.
Men når vi gør os tanker om, hvor
Last year, when, of
budget meget sent i proceduren, tror jeg vi beviste, at vi var i stand til at give penge ud meget hurtigt, når det var et konkret punkt, vi behandlede.
Tugendhat course, a supplementary budget was passed very late in the proceedings, we showed, I think, that we were able to spend money very rapidly if we were dealing with a specific point.
Ved den lejlighed var det socialfonden; ved denne lejlighed vil det, hvis pengene er til rådighed, være en social volet og de mindst udviklede lande.
On that occasion it was the Social Fund; on this occasion it would, if the money is available, be for a social volet and the leastdeveloped countries.
Jeg kan derfor besvare hans spørgsmål bekræftende på disse to punkter, for så vidt angår de penge, vi har bedt om.
So I can answer his question on those two points in the affirmative, so far as the money for which we have asked is concerned.
Tugendhat, næstformand i Kommissionen. — (EN) Hr. formand, må jeg begynde mine bemærkninger med at sige, at jeg meget håber, hr. Fanton kommer tilbage i salen.
in other words, without a specific legal base in addition to the budget entry.
Hvis jeg med al respekt for Parlamentet må sige det, så finder jeg det ikke nogen særlig god skik — og jeg kunne bruge stærkere vendinger om det — at folk angriber en kommissær eller Kommissionen og siger, at de forventer et svar, for så straks at forlade salen uden at vente på svaret.
The Commission was there fore faced with the choice between the appropriations not appearing in the draft budget or, alternatively, the appropriations appearing but subject to the Commission undertaking to submit a specific proposal to provide a legal basis for their implementation.
Jeg mener, at når nogen kritiserer Rådet for ikke at være til stede — og jeg kritiserede Rådet for dets fravær under min tale — er det vigtigt at tænke på, at det er en ganske god idé selv at være her.
After very serious consideration of the options the Commission came to the conclusion that on this occasion the overriding consideration had to be the entry of the appropriations in the draft that the Council was about to adopt.
Dernæst talte hr. Langes, der spurgte mig om Polen.
Mr Langes spoke next and asked me about Poland.
Hans spørgsmål var, om vi kunne give de 10 mio ud, som han bad om til Polen, og de 2 millioner, som han ønskede til ikke-regeringsorganisationerne.
His question was whether we could spend the 10 million which he wanted for Poland and the 2 million which be wanted for the non-governmental organizations.
Ja, hr. formand, Polen-sagen er indviklet, fordi der jo er så meget, der afhænger af den måde, horpå pengene stilles til rådighed.
Well, Mr President, Poland is a complex matter, because, of course, so much depends on the way in which the money is made available.
Tidligere har vi stillet penge til rådighed for Polen til forskellige særlige formål, og de penge har været knyttet til meget konkrete ting.
In the past we have made money available for Poland for various specific purposes, and the money has been linked to very specific matters.
Hvis vi skulle gå frem efter samme princip, som vi har fulgt tidligere, så må jeg sige, at jeg ikke tror, vi ville være i stand til at give pengene ud rettidigt.
If we were to proceed on the same basis as we have done in the past, then I must say I don't think we would be able to spend the money in time.
Det er klart, at hvis vi så at sige simplet hen udstedte en check til den polske regering, så ville man være i stand til at give pengene ud, men det ville på sin side, som jeg sagde før, rejse andre problemer.
If, of course, we simply made out a cheque to the Polisii Government, as it were, well then obviously one would be able to spend it, but that in turn, as I said a moment or two ago, would raise other issues.
Det er det bedste svar, jeg kan give, og jeg er på dette stadium ikke helt klar over, præcis hvordan Parlamentet ønsker, at vi skal gå frem, hvis pengene stilles til rådighed.
That is the best answer I can give, and I am not quite clear at this stage how exactly Parliament would wish us to proceed if the money is made available.
Hr. formand, hr. Arndt kritiserede Kommissionen for ikke tidligere at gøre Parlamentet bekendt med sine hensigter.
When taking this decision the Commission was aware that Parliament would have a strong preference for us to implement without an additional legal base being required.
Han påpegede, at når vi fremsatte forslaget så sent, var det vanskeligt for Parlamentet at bruge pengene rettidigt.
It recognized that we were touching on a most important interinstitutional and legal point but, as I have said, we judged that the humanitarian aspects on this occasion had to take precedence.
Han stillede mig faktisk det konkrete spørgsmål, om vi, hvis dette budget blev vedtaget, kunne bruge pengene tidsnok.
The Commission therefore hopes that Parliament will recognize the strength of this argument.
Jeg forstår hans bemærkning om forslagets sene fremkomst og de følger, dette har, men jeg vil for det første gerne påpege, at vi faktisk fremsendte forslaget den 4. oktober.
As I say, this is a longer reply than I would normally give but I recognize Parliament's justifiable sensitivity on the interinstitutional point.
For så vidt angår ikke-regeringsorganisationerne, så er heller ikke dér sagen helt ligetil, for som jeg tror forsamlingen ved, er det ikke vor sædvane bare at skrive en check ud til De forenede Nationer eller amnesty international eller Røde Kors, eller hvem det nu måtte være; vore projekter med ikke-regeringsorganisationerne er som regel fællesforetagender og må derfor opstilles i forvejen.
So far as the non-governmental organizations are concerned, there too the matter is not entirely straightforward, because, as I think the House knows, it is not our habit merely to write out a cheque to the United Nations Organization or Amnesty International or the Red Cross or whatever it might be; our projects with the NGOs are usually on a sort of joint basis and therefore have to be set up in advance.
På den basis vil der heller ikke være nogen vanskeligheder.
So again, on that basis, clearly there would be difficulties.
Nu antyder jeg ikke, at der ikke er andre grundlag, men så løber man ind i vanskeligheder — som vi absolut kan snakke om — vedrørende budgetforordningerne og den normale måde, hvorpå budgetmyndigheden førhen har behandlet disse ting, og det gælder også os selv.
Now, I am not suggesting that there aren't other bases, but then one runs into problems — which we can certainly talk about — relating to the budgetary regulations and the normal way in which the budgetary authority has dealt with these matters in the past, as well as ourselves.
Derefter havde hr. Price ordet — hr. formand, jeg prøver at svare talerne i den rækkefølge, hvori de havde ordet — og han gjorde en bemærkning om fødevarehjælp, og her var han virkelig foruroliget over budgetteringsmaden.
Mr Price spoke next, Mr President — I am trying to go through the speakers in the order in which they actually appeared — and he made a point about food aid. And here he was really concerned, I think, with the entry.
Jeg forstår udmærket hans bekymring, og det er et forhold, som min kollega, hr. Pisani — ikke fordi han ikke er her for øjeblikket, men fordi han er den relevante kommissær — og jeg har brudt vore hoveder en hel del over.
Now I understand his preoccupation very well, and it is a point which my colleague Mr Pisani — not because he is here at the moment but because he is the relevant Commissioner — and I have agonized over a certain amount.
Jeg kan udmærket forstå den uro, det har forvoldt hr. Price.
I can well understand the concern that it caused Mr Price.
Men lad mig forklare det, måske lidt mere detaljeret end jeg normalt ville gøre i et afsluttende indlæg.
Now let me explain, perhaps, in a little bit more detail than I normally would in a concluding speech.
For det andet må forsamlingen virkelig huske på, at det kun er muligt at fremsætte et konkret budgetforslag, når man har materiale at gå ud fra.
Mr Spinelli came back to the point that he has raised before concerning Chapter 100 and, indeed, suggested that then the money could be carried over into 1982.
Vi kunne udmærket have sagt i juli: »Det ser ud til, at udgifterne på landbrugsområdet er under det forventede, men vi ved ikke helt, hvad det bliver, og vi frem kommer med forslag, som måske, måske ikke, rammer plet.« Det kunne vi udmærket have gjort, men så ville vi være blevet kritiseret for manglende præcision.
I have made the arguments about Chapter 100 on many different occasions and I do not think that I need weary the House by repeating them now.
Faktisk kan vi kun fremsætte vore budget forslag, når vi kender den tilgrundliggende situation, og landbrugscyclus'ens art — jeg mener, når høsten bringes ind og sådan noget — gør det vanskeligt for os at handle før.
Our view is that Chapter 100 ought not to be used as a device for a sort of co-management and that if it is used as a device for co-management, it will only delay the implementation of the budget, which will in turn mean that the House will no doubt criticize us when it comes to the discharge for not having done it quickly enough.
Medlemmer med større erfaring her i huset, f.eks. hr. Lange der får ordet efter mig, ved udmærket, at det altid er omkring på samme tid hvert år, vi kommer med disse forslag, dels af de grunde jeg har nævnt, landbrugsårsagerne, dels selvfølgelig fordi vi først da fuldt ud er i stand til at tage hensyn til ændringerne i medlemsstaternes momsindbetalinger. linger.
As to the point about carryovers to 1982 I will be returning to that point when I have replied to Mr Irmer, but it will, of course, run counter to the principle of the annuality of the budget, which is something to which Parliament has in the past, quite rightly in my view, attached very great importance.
Ja, svaret er, at det er vi. Sidste år, da der jo blev vedtaget et tillægs
Mrs Scrivener, I was pleased to see, supported our proposal for the 62 million in the steel sector and I was
Tugendhat talt om nu, måske ikke forsvinde, men i hvert fald blive en hel del lettere at omgås, end de er for øjeblikket.
Tugendhat also pleased by what she had to say on the least-developed countries.
Ungerne dukkede op, men under forbehold af at Kommissionen forpligtede sig til at forelægge et konkret forslag, der kunne give det retlige grundlag for deres anvendelse.
exceptional year in 1974. In 1974, unlike 1981, agricultural expenditure actually fell — which it has not done this year, it has merely risen by much less than we expected.
Efter meget alvorlig overvejelse af valgmulighederne kom Kommissionen til den konklusion, at ved denne lejlighed måtte hovedhensynet være, at bevillingerne blev opført på det forslag, som Rådet var ved at vedtage.
In 1974 it actually fell and a lot of people thought that a new dawn had begun and that the pattern of Community expenditure would be very much affected by it. But of course in 1975, 1976 and 1977, etc. we were confronted by 25% annual increases in agricultural expenditure and we can see, looking back, that 1974 was a very exceptional year.
Hr. formand, jeg er taknemlig for, at hr. Fanton kommer tilbage, når jeg tænker på de bemærkninger, han kom med i sin tale.
Mr President, I am grateful to Mr Fanton for returning in view of the points which he made in his speech.
Jeg har flere ting at sige til ham.
I must say several things to him.
For det første vil det trætte forsamlingen, hvis jeg skal gentage, hvad jeg sagde for kun fjorten dage siden, lige så indgående og for anden gang, og jeg har faktisk ved flere lejligheder forklaret grundene til, at landbrugsudgifterne er blevet mindre, end man oprindelig havde regnet med, og jeg har ved flere lejligheder — men jeg skal nok gentage det til glæde for ham nu — henledt opmærksomheden på, at Kommissionen fortjener nogen anerkendelse for sin bedre forvaltning.
First of all, it wearies the House if I have to repeat what I said, only two weeks ago, at equal length on a second occasion and I have, in fact, explained on several occasions now the reasons why the agricultural expenditure has been less than was originally foreseen and I have on several occasions — but I will certainly repeat it for his benefit now — drawn attention to the fact that the Commission deserves some credit for its better management.
Jeg har også sagt, at forsamlingen fortjener nogen anerkendelsem, fordi den har henledt opmærksom heden på en række ting tidligere, som den mente kunne strammes, og som vi har strammet.
I have also said that the House deserves some credit for having drawn attention to a number of things in the past which it felt could be tightened up and which we have tightened up.
Da Kommissionen traf denne afgørelse, var den klar over, at Parlamentet langt ville foretrække, at vi satte det i gang, uden at der krævedes et yderligere retligt grundlag.
So it is important for us to bear in mind the nature of the exceptional circumstances that have applied this year and to remember that they may very well not recur next year.
Den var klar over, at vi rørte ved et overordentlig vigtigt interinstitutionelt og retligt spørgsmål, men mente, som jeg sagde, at de humanitære aspekter i dette tilfælde måtte veje tungest.
Who can tell? Perhaps the dollar will rise still further and perhaps the Polish situation will be replicated in other countries and crops behind the Iron Curtain will be worse even than usual.
Derfor, hr. formand, opfordrer jeg indtrængende Parlamentet til at støtte denne side af vort forslag og Rådet til at vedtage det forslag til retsakt, vi har forelagt.
They could not be foreseen by us and they could not be foreseen by Paris, or Bonn, or London or anywhere else.
Som jeg sagde, var dette svar længere end det, jeg normalt ville afgive, men jeg erkender Parlamentets berettigede nærtagenhed på det interinstitutionelle punkt.
Indeed I am told that in Germany — but I may be misinformed — they were really quite startlingly wrong on the dollar/deutsch mark exchange rate, and they would not have been alone in this.
Jeg erkender også, at vi er under et meget stærkt pres — et pres jeg støtter, hvis jeg må sige det på den måde — fra Parlamentet for at gribe til handling og tage os af de mindst udviklede lande.
So there has not been bad forecasting on our part about agricul ture, and it has resulted from these sorts of factors which have caused quite as much stir in Paris, or Bonn, or London, or The Hague, or anywhere else.
Men derefter — og det er et punkt, hvor han og jeg ikke har helt samme synspunkt — har jeg også peget på, at en af grundene til, at vi har været i stand at stramme — og det havde i særlig grad været tilfældet for mælkeprodukter — var, at vi har kunnet samar bejde meget snævert med de andre hovedproducenter på verdensmarkedet — for mælkeprodukternes vedkommende betyder det naturligvis New Zealand — at vi som et resultat af samarbejdet med New Zealand har været i stand til at hæve verdensmarkedsprisen, og at vi ved at hæve verdensmarkedsprisen har kunnet foretage helt uanede besparelser i eksportrestitutionerne.
Then — and this is a point where he and I do not have entirely the same point of view — I have also pointed out that one of the reasons why we have been able to tighten up — and that had been particularly true of milk products, — has been that we have been able to cooperate very closely with the other main producers on international markets — in the case of milk products of course that means New Zealand — and as a result of the cooperation with New Zealand we have been able to raise the world price, and that by raising the world price we have been able to save money quite dramatically on export restitutions.
Naturligvis er et af de mest interessante træk ved budgettet for øjeblikket, af det i høj grad har været muligt at nedskære mælkesektoren.
Of course one of the most interesting features of the budget at the moment is the extent to which the weight of the milk sector has been reduced.
Derfor må jeg bede ham erkende, at jeg ikke er en overdrevent beskeden person.
So I do ask him to recognize that I am not an unduly modest person.
Jeg har ved adskillige lejligheder tidligere rettet henstilling til Kommissionen om en bedre forvaltning inden for alle områderne.
I have claimed the credit on several occasions in the past for the better management, in all its aspects, of the Commission. sion.
Man jeg.har også fremhævet — og det må enhver indrømme — at 1981 har været et exceptionelt år på mange måder, der ligger helt uden for vor kontrol.
That then brings me to his point about the British payments on which he was rather unclear, but certainly there are some rather disagreeable implications, if I may say so.
Den vigtigste måde, hvorpå det har været exceptionelt, har naturligvis været dollarens astronomiske stigning.
But as the House knows, agriculture is the dominant element in the budget and agriculture happens to be the dominant element determining the level of the UK contribution to the Community.
Resultatet af dollarens astronomiske stigning har været en stigning i verdenspriserne for en række varer, der normalt noteres i dollars, hvilket til gengæld har hjulpet os.
It follows, therefore, that if agricultural expenditure is lower than expected, the amount that the UK pays into the Community is likely to be lower than expected.
Vi har imidlertid draget fordel af vejret.
While we are proud of our management, we do not want to ignore factors of that sort.
Hr. Spinelli vendte tilbage til det spørgsmål, han havde rejst vedrørende kapitel 100, og foreslog, at pengene så blev overført til 1982.
But I have also pointed out — and this is something which everybody must recognize — that 1981 has been an exceptional year in a variety of ways which are quite outside our control.
Jeg har ved mange forskellige lejligheder fremført mine argumenter vedrørende kapitel 100, og jeg tror ikke, jeg behøver at trætte forsamlingen med at gentage dem nu. Vort synspunkt er, at kapitel 100 ikke bør bruges som et middel til en slags med-forvaltning, og at hvis det bruges som et middel til med-forvaltning, forsinker det kun gennemførelsen af budgettet, hvilket på sin side vil betyde, at forsamlingen utvivlsomt vil kritisere os, når vi kommer til dechargen, fordi vi ikke har gjort det hurtigt nok.
The. most important way in which it has been exceptional has of course been the astronomic rise in the dollar.
