Men det er alligevel lykkedes fru Baduel Glorioso at udarbejde en betænkning på et objektivt grundlag og på grundlag af besøg, samtaler og snak med befolkningen. Og i dette dokument står at læse hvad hun fandt, nemlig en menneskelig tragedie. En by var ved at gå Under.
In conclusion, Mr President, we have noted with interest the results obtained by the application of Arti cle 58, and we hope that the aspects which I nave just touched upon will be taken into account.
Det var levende mennesker, hun mødte i byen, enkeltpersoner, så lad os ud af 7 mio. arbejdsløse beskæftige os med én enkelt mand, den mand som var den førende i kampen for at holde stålværket i gang.
The crisis exists not only in the marketplace; it is a social fact which we must view with the utmost concern, and it is therefore our earnest wish that the Council would assume its responsibility in this matter.
Vi har alle et ansvar og en forpligtelse over for folk i dette område, og jeg appel lerer her til formiddag til Kommissionen om at undersøge alle muligheder for at finansiere nye arbejdspladser for disse mennesker.
Mr Leonardi. — (I) Mr President, I believe that, at this stage of the discussion, it is only necessary to confirm a few points to illustrate the position of the Italian Communist group.
Hr. formand, kære kolleger, som mange af os glæder jeg mig over, at Kommissionen har kunnet få Rådet til at acceptere anvendelsen af artikel 58, selv om jeg sammen med mange andre af mine kolleger beklager, at man har skullet bruge så lang tid til at nå så vidt, og at styrken i de europæiske initiativer først kommer til udtryk, når man står ved afgrundens rand.
As we have said before, we support the Community intervention provided for by Article 58. The situation is a very difficult one, and if a choice must be made between private action by the cartels and public inter vention, such as that undertaken by the Community, we choose the latter, not because it is better by nature, but because it is more easily brought under democratic and social control.
Når dette er sagt, vil jeg gerne fremsætte tre bemærk ninger, der samtidig er tre spørgsmål til Kommissionen.
This is a basic point in our policy, internal as well as external.
Den første er, at det, hvis Kommissionen får held med sig, er sandsynligt, at priserne igen vil stige og forskyde sig i forhold til verdensmarkedspriserne; så vil fristelsen til at indføre stål til det fælles marked være stor.
For this reason, we request — as have other speakers — that the Commission keep the Parliament or the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs constantly informed on the application of Article 58 and on the implementation of social programmes.
Hertil kommer, at det sidste stålværk af antagelig størrelse i Consett nu har meddelt, at det lukker på trods af det kolossale arbejdsløshedsniveau, som skyldes, at den britiske regerings nuværende politik får værk efter værk til at lukke.
Mr Simmonds. — Mr President, I am sorry Mrs Baduel Glorioso is not present, because it is to her remarks and those remarks alone that I wish to speak this morning.
Så nu er John Lee ikke aktuel mere.
I think I must be the only Member in the debate today who is not, like Oliver Twist, asking the Commission for more.
For mange er han nu et overstået kapitel, afskrevet og arbejdsløs, én ud af 7 mio.
As Member for the Midlands West constituency, I have lost a major part of the steel industry in my constituency, the famous Bilston Steel Works, but we have received the appropriate funds from the Community.
De sagde til os, og man har gentaget det over for os, at der ikke var nogen særlig stor fare af frygte fra denne side, fordi visse traditionelle leverandørlande frivilligt havde givet os bindende tilsagn.
May I disagree with what I think I heard from Mrs Baduel Glorioso when she advised redundant Consett workers to seek work in Australia and Canada?
Men ved at erklære, at De ikke vil anvende artikel 74, fratager De Dem selv et våben, og det vil opmuntre andre lande, herunder også lande som måske har givet os bindende tilsagn, men som ikke altid har overholdt dem.
There is certainly no recruitment for steelworkers' skills in either of those coun tries at the moment. My advice to those workers, as it has been to workers from the Bilston Steel Works, is to exploit to the full the opportunities offered by both.
Tilfældet Spanien er allerede blevet nævnt i denne forhandling; det er muligt, at der også er andre.
Community and national agencies, particularly for retraining and for developing new industries.
Jeg anmoder derfor Kommissionen om at være særlig opmærksom over for den side af problemet, som hedder import, for det tjener ikke noget formål at begrænse vores kapacitet, hvis det blot er for at lade udenlandske producenter nyde fordel deraf.
Bilston is not designated a development area by the national government and therefore does not qualify for much of the aid that Consett is entitled to receive; but it has received large sums from the ECSC for redundancy, for early retirement and, most important, for retraining.
Mit andet spørgsmål eller min anden bemærkning drejer sig om fremtidens politik, der vedrører på den ene side omstruktureringsproblemet og på den anden
At Bilston the clearing of the vast steelworks site is proceeding rapidly, and there are a number of plan
Det er sikkert, at dette fænomen fortsat vil forekomme.
It was unable to direct investments.
Jeg tror, at Kommissionen fiar midlerne til at forhindre oprettelsen af yderligere fremtidig kapacitet.
For these reasons we have always blamed the Commission for its inability to use the means furnished in the Treaty, and we have always voted against the ECSC budgets.
Vi vil gerne være sikre på, at man uophørlig er årvågen på dette punkt, således at vi ikke om tre, fire eller fem år, når denne første sanering er foretaget, kommer til at befinde os i en ny overproduktionssituation, der tvinger os til igen at anvende artikel 58.
I would like to emphasize this, because the Commission should be criticized for its failure to take the decisive action which could perhaps have spared us many of the difficulties we now face.
Men De er gået videre.
I call Mr Donnez.
Det enkleste er at citere Kommissionens formand, som i den udtalelse, vi skal forestille at debattere her til formiddag, har sagt: »Kommissionen modtager for tiden ansøgninger om omskolings- og førtidspensioneringsbistand til titusindvis af europæiske arbejdere.
conclusion is that, in recent times, all countries and all governments have intervened, without exception; the problem lies in the fact that the intervention was effected in different ways, but it is not that in some cases private efforts were allowed to proceed and in others there was public intervention with public funds.
Dette medfører udgifter på adskillige hundrede millioner ERE, beløb som EKSF-budgettet ikke kan afholde på grund af manglende midler.
The preceding Community intervention based on Arti cle 57 did not work; it was not as effective as the Commission and others had thought it would be.
Det er ensbetydende med, at vi forsømmer vore pligter over for stålindustriens arbejdere.
Today, the crisis is especially a Community one: we cannot hide behind the fact that there is also a world wide steel crisis.
Det er også yderst skadeligt for Fællesskabets anseelse«.
The situation in Japan, in the United States, and in the developing countries is profoundly different.
Han fortsatte så med at bede ministrene om at tage disse sociale foranstalt ninger op til overvejelse inden 11. november.
We agree to intervention at the Community level, because this is the right scale on which to confront the problem of conversion and restructurization of our aged steel industry.
Så vidt jeg er informeret, er dette dog ikke sket, og beslutningen er blevet udsat, så den bliver en mindre del af hele den komplicerede forhandlingssituation omkring 1981-budgettet. Jeg håber imidlertid, at ministrene vil rette deres opmærksomhed mod disse sociale foran staltninger, og at de vil finde en udvej, uanset hvilke juridiske spidsfindigheder det måtte kræve, for at få vedtaget de midler, som deres egne planer kræver.
Mr Donnez. — (F) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I endorse, of course, the feelings expressed in the motion for a resolution tabled by the Liberal and Democratic Group, but rather than drawing up a list of the measures to be taken to restore the iron and steel industry in Europe as a whole and in France in particular to its former glory, allow me to draw your attention to the urgency of the measures that should be taken to prevent the North of France, from where I come, from becoming once again the principal victim of the application of Article 58 of the ECSC Treaty and of the steel plan in general.
Det forekommer mig følgelig at være at brænde sine skibe på en så fast måde at måtte bebude, at man den 30. juni 1981 vil trække ordningen i henhold til artikel 58 tilbage.
We must concentrate on what we can do more competitively than other countries; we must understand that enormous investments will be necessary in order to convert the European steel industry, which is the oldest in the world.
Det er måske ikke sikkert, at vi til den tid fuldstændig vil have saneret markedet.
Those who supply us with raw materials now want to undertake for themselves what we taught them to do.
Vi håber det, ja vi tror det endog, men det kan godt være, at det ikke bliver tilfældet til den tid; man må derfor allerede nu overveje en anden ordning end artikel 58-ordningen ud fra den forudsætning, at den skal give os de samme resultater og de samme garan tier.
I willingly admit that, to overcome the crisis in the iron and steel industry, 'European solidarity', that hallowed phrase, is now needed mor than ever before.
Vi ønsker ikke — og jeg gentager: ikke — en såkaldt løsning, som medfører nationale bidrag uden for budgettet eller uden for traktaternes rammer.
Firstly, something must be done to eliminate the feel ing of insecurity or anxiety about the future at present felt by thousands of workers in my region.
Hr. formand, jeg vil gerne lægge ud med at rose en efter min mening bemærkelsesværdigt god og behersket tale holdt af min kollega fra den modsatte side af salen, Roland Boyes.
For these reasons, therefore, we favour the application of Article 58, requesting at the same time, however, a stricter control.
Jeg skal senere vende tilbage til Consett, men først vil jeg gerne gøre opmærksom på en efter min mening uheldig svaghed i hr. Boyes' argumentation.
We also ask, as others have done, that together with Article 58, the possible application of Article 74 be borne in mind, though here also it must not be forgotten that, despite its losses on the world market, the Community as a whole is still a net exporter of steel.
Det har ganske vist stor følelsesmæssig virkning at fremhæve enkeltpersoner og -samfund og bruge dem i en politisk tale, men ulykkeligvis handler det i politik ikke om enkeltpersoner eller enkelte dele af Fællesskabet.
It is certainly impossible to defend internal prices — as is now being done through the application of Article 58 — without exercising control over the entry of foreign goods in an industry like this one, where the marginal costs are far below the average costs.
Her i Parlamentet skal vi beskæftige os med Europa-politikkens indvirkning på det samlede Fællesskab, og en løsning på Consens problemer skal ikke søges ved, at man træffer forskellige forholdsregler af speciel karakter, men gennem en generelt rigtig anvendelse af Fælles skabets forskellige former for foranstaltninger.
It is inevitable that, if we defend internal prices, we must also police imports, without forgetting however that we are still net exporters. We therefore agree to Community intervention, which should not be merely restrictive in character but should rather constitute the first step in reorganization for subsequent development.
Nu vil jeg gerne vende mig til Consett. Lukningen af Consett må have været den mest betænkelige og sandsynligvis også den mest vilkårlige af de lukninge, som var led i BSCs nedtrapningsbestræbelser.
It is essential, first of all, to give some assurance about the future to the 6 000 workers in Denain, the 2 500 of Valenciennes-Trith who were made redundant in 1979, and all the others who have lost or will lose their jobs in the iron and steel industry.
Den var den mest betænkelige på grund af byens beliggenhed og dens totale afhængighed af denne ene industri.
In the Valenciennes region there are 421 cases still to be settled, and this will be possible only if the Social Agreement is extended.
Hr. Boyes havde ret, da han nævnte, at produktiviteten havde været stigende.
The only realistic and consist ent solution would be to extend it until 31 December 1982.
Men det var dog indtruffet for sent.
That is what I consider to be the first essential step.
Generelt har vi hos den britiske stålindustri været vidne til ødelæggende diskussioner om forskel lige restriktive indgreb, en ødelæggende lav produktivitet, og for at gøre ondt værre en ødelæggende strejke, som varede meget længere, end nogen havde forventet.
I would like to conclude by restating the position which we have always held, now and in the preceding Parliament: a position that has always criticized the Commission for its failure to use the means provided by the ECSC Treaty.
Det er de historiske, kendsgerninger, som ligger bag lukningen af Consett og andre værker.
Even in the years when all was well in the European steel industry, the Commission was unable to use approximately one-third of the own resources available to it.
Selv om jeg har den dybeste sympati med Consett arbejdernes anfører, fanget som han var, så kan politik dog alligevel ikke anskues i tremåneders moduler.
It was unable to develop a policy of research that would make it possible for us today to convert our steel industry in the fields where
mulighed for at give en yderligere redegørelse for sine synspunkter.
A town was in the process of being destroyed.
Men han var ikke til stede, fordi han var deltager i den labour-konference, som drøftede Det forenede Kongeriges udtræden af Fælles skabet.
I shall show in a moment how that process is continuing.
Hvis man virkelig har et oprigtigt ønske om at hjælpe Consetts befolkning, bør man først bringe orden i de overordnede politiske linjer, og jeg er urokkeligt overbevist om, at disse politiske linjer må betvde, at Storbritannien skal forblive medlem af dette Fællesskab.
She found in that town human beings, she found people, so from our 7 million unemployed let us look at one man, one man who led the campaign to keep that steel plant open.
Jeg beklager også, at de forhandlinger om en privat overtagelse af Consett, som var i gang, da fru Baduel Glorioso var på besøg, ikke blev til noget.
It would have the two-fold advantage of helping to modernize and to maintain the plant and therefore jobs which already exist.
Det ville ellers efter min mening have været en løsning på netop Consetts problemer; men det blev altså ikke til noget, og vi skal derfor nu til at overveje, hvad der kan gøres, hvad der skal gøres for en by med en arbejdsløshed på 50 %.
It therefore forms part of the measures to be taken under the restructuring programmes that are envisaged.
Det er socialpolitikken, jeg gerne vil tale om i dag, idet jeg først spørger Kommissionen, hvad den mener om den amerikanske regerings beslutning om at forbyde import til USA af specialstål, fremstillet af en fransk virksomhed.
It is intolerable that in a district such as Valenciennes — which has only 350 000 inhabitants — 8 500 jobs should be lost owing to the restructuring that has already taken place, with out measures to instai substitute industries being envisaged. aged.
Jeg vil lige gøre forsamlingen opmærksom på, at de lokaliteter, heriblandt Consett, hvor lukningen af stål værkerne finder sted, i følge den gældende lovgivning for EØF og Det forenede Kongerige har mulighed for at nyde godt af en af de gunstigste finansielle aftaler i hele Vesteuropa.
Let us consider John Lee, a representative of the community of Consett, a quiet peaceable man who felt that there were channels for discussion, proper avenues for argument. He wanted to use them and he believed that if he used these channels and these proper avenues for argument, he could save his steel works.
Regionalhjælpen er nu blevet indskrænket i geografisk udbredelse, men ikke i tal, således at regeringerne nu har mulighed for at koncentrere regionalhjælpen dér, hvor den er mest tiltrængt.
He saw every organization that had anything to do with the steelworks — the Commission, BSC, the government, his national union leaders.
Det betyder, at mine vælgere i Derbyshire, et område som ikke længere kan få støtte, må være med til at betale prisen for at hjælpe hr. Boyes' valg kreds i Derwentsidei Hele denne aftale indbefatter regionaludviklingsbeløb, den indbefatter skattelettelser i form af afskrivning på investering, og den indbefatter støtte i henhold til industriloven af 1972, kontanttilskud til investering, tilbagebetalingsgarantier for lån og valutakursgaranti.
He believed, quite wrongly, staggeringly wrongly, misguidedly in the end, that if he had a case, if he could show that his steelworks were profitable as he had been asked to do by previous governments, if he could show that by shutting the steelworks in his town there would be unemployment of 50 %-50 %! — then people might decide that that steelworks should not shut.
Alt dette giver mulighed for at tilvejebringe et nyt grundlag for Consetts industri, et grundlag som forhåbentlig vil blive etableret på basis af moderne teknologi, på basis af industrier, som ikke blot vil vise sig levedygtige dette århundrede ud, men også ind i det næste.
The two major proposals I have just made should enable us in the coming difficult months not to over come the crisis we are now going through, but to contribute to the implementation of a genuine Community policy, which would also have the advantage of being understood by the people concerned.
Vi har fjernet os fra en fristelse, protektionismens fristelse, og vi konstaterer nu, at USA anvender dette okonomiske våben imod et af Fællesskabets lande; en sadan praksis er farlig for fremtiden.
The more he talked, the more the steamroller advanced. The day for closure was continually brought forward, thus proving to that .man"that there was no point in having an economic case, a social case, in showing the human misery, the tragedy of unemployment in the North-East of England, because nobody wanted to know.
Jeg har noteret mig den seneste meddelelse fra Kommissionen til Rådet om støtteforanstaltninger til fordel for arbejdstagere i jern- og stålindustrien.
In addition to that, despite the staggering level of unemployment due to the present policies of our government in Britain, which is closing works after works, the last remaining works of any size in Consett has now announced closure.
Jeg håber endvidere, at BSC Industry Ltd, som har skaffet over 6.000 arbejdspladser i andre områder, hvor man har nedlagt stålværker, vil have held med sine bestræbelser i Consett.
Mr Boyes. — Mr President, there is a crisis in Europe that is leading to massive, largescale unemployment.
Vi ejer ikke en tryllestav, som i ét nu kan standse den form for social tragedie, vi er vidne· til i Consett og andre steder, og når hr. Boyes appel lerer til Kommissionen om massiv bistand, vil jeg på det instændigste bede ham om at være konsekvent.
All they want is a job, a right to work, an opportunity to earn a living, an opportunity to come home at night and buy the things that normal people want to buy on the basis of an earned income.
Det er meget godt at appellere til Kommissionen, men så skal man ikke samtidig slå helt om og anbefale, at Det forenede Kongerige træder ud af De europæiske Fællesskaber og på den måde afskærer sig fra at nyde godt af netop de midler, man her beder om.
But they have now been told, 'you also are going on the scrap heap, no work for you either, you are joining the 50 % in the town of Consett' — a town that will live in infamy in the United Kingdom, a town that will symbolise the policies carried out by the government in our areas.
Når huset brænder, tilkalder man brandvæsenet uden at bekymre sig om bestemmelserne i forsikringspolicerne!
When we get down to the level of a region, these figures mean the destruction of a town within the UK.
Denne situation forværres af, at den europæiske jernog stålindustris overskudskapacitet er større end dens japanske og amerikanske konkurrenters.
However, she did manage to prepare this report on the basis of objectivity, on the basis of visits, talks and
marked må ikke gå til grunde som følge af uenig heden blandt stålindustriens virksomheder.
the Commission has the means to prevent the creation of capacities in the future.
Det må heller ikke ødelægges af egoistisk national uenighed uden hensyntagen til fælles mål og fælles udvikling. Kul- og ståltraktaten stiller instrumenter til rådighed, som kan medvirke til, at strukturkrisen inden for stålindustrien overvindes.
We would like to be sure that there will be no flagging in this vigilance so that we do not find ourselves in three, four or five years' time, when these first restructuring measures have been completed, once more faced with overproduction, forcing us to resort to Article 58 again.
Endvidere har en sådan strategi sin berettigelse, fordi de sociale sikkerhedsordninger og de økonomiske problemer i malmlejeområderne som oftest varierer fra det ene land til det andet.
We all have a duty and an obligation to the people in that area and I appeal this morning to the Commission to look for all sources of finance to help create jobs for those people.
For det andet bør Fælles skabet i deri kommende tid — og jeg understreger indgrebets uopsættelige karakter — iværksætte de foranstaltninger, der er fastsat i EKSF-traktaten, og blandt disse foranstaltninger er der nogle, som for tjener en særlig opmærksomhed.
You have undertaken person ally to stand down if at the end of the agreed period the situation has still not improved — which is not inconceivable in view of the present state of the economy — and if by that time we have not found another Solution, since we cannot go on applying Article 58..
Det medførte, at der fra 1974 til 1980 i Det europæiske Fællesskabs lande gik i alt 160 000 arbejdspladser tabt, deraf 30 000 i Forbundsrepublikken, hvilket svarer til 13 % af arbejdspladserne inden for stålindustrien, 40 000 i Frankrig (28 %), 3 000 i Nederlandene (12,5%), 17 000 i Belgien (26,5 %), 7 000 i Luxembourg (over 30 %), og 67 000 i Storbritannien (33 %).
Mr Herman. — (F) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, like many of you, I am glad that the Commission was able to persuade the Council to agree to the application of Article 58, although, like many of my colleagues, I deplore the fact that it has taken so long to get this far and that the strength of European initia tive does not become apparent until we have reached the edge of the abyss.
De lande, der har investeret og moderniseret mest, har klaret sig bedst, som vi kunne se af disse procenttal. Nu kom der oven i denne strukturkrise et alvorligt konjunkturelt tilbageslag, og det frivillige aftalekartel Eurofer I brød sammen.
There can be no certainty that we shall have completely reorganized the market by that time.
Det er helt klart, at det er virksomhedslederne, der er skyld i denne seneste kriseudvikling, for da alles kamp mod alle begyndte, trykkede nogle virksomheder priserne så stærkt nedad, at selv moderne virksomheder i Forbundsrepublikken blev presset helt ud til grænsen for deres eksistens.
Thought should therefore be given to a system other than that for which Article 58 provides, the condition being that it produces the same results and gives us the same assurances.
På baggrund af denne kamp, hvor alle kæmpede mod alle, og denne selvødelæggende proces efter markeds lovene inden for stålindustrien havde Kommissionen intet andet valg end at anvende artikel 58 i EKSF-traktaten.
Will it take the form of a voluntary system under Article 58?
Dermed blev krisen åbenbar.
We should like to have your assessment of this.
En sådan godtgørelse kunne udbetales til virksomhederne i form at fællesskabstilskud.
There will then be a strong temptation to import steel into the Common Market.
