Hvis jeg må slutte i denne stil, så lad os lige huske på, at vi nærmer os jul.
If I may conclude on that note, let us remember that we are coming up to Christmas.
Hvorfor kan Kommissionen, ordføreren og alle medlemmerne ikke blive enige om, at den fornuftige, logiske mængde er en kasse vin og for de andre alkoholholdige drikkevarers vedkommende den tilsvarende mængde målt i alkoholindhold.
Why cannot the Commission, the rapporteur and every Member of this Parliament agree that the sensible, logical quantity is a case of wine and, with the other alcoholic beverages, the equivalent amounts in alcoholic content.
Jeg håber, at Parlamentet til støtte dette.
I hope the Parliament will support that.
Dernæst vil jeg gerne komme ind på hr. von Wogaus synspunkt.
Debates of the European Parliament
Naturligvis, det dryer sig ikke om millioner og arbejdsløshedsproblem! løses ikke hermed.
Irmer acquire unlimited amounts of fine goods tax free while the housewives and pensioners are precluded from doing so !
Med to ændringsforslag kan vi redde omkring 10 000 eksisterende og velfungerende arbejdspladser.
motions for amendments we can save approximately ten thousand existing and well-functioning jobs.
Derfor beder jeg Dem i denne ånd om at rakke hånden op to gange i morgen.
I hope that you will use your vote twice tomorrow for this purpose.
Hvis vore ændringsforslag imidlertid forkastes, så ville det medføre, at der i fremtiden ikke ville findes et juridisk grundlag — som heller ikke findes i dag — for at disse skibe fortsat kan sejle.
In conclusion I should like to ask the Commission to take another look at this matter, as if it does not take account of these motions we shall once more have to hold inter-group discussions as to how the matter should be dealt with.
Rogalla (S). — (DE) Fru formand, jeg vil her med det samme tilslutte mig hr. Morelands forslag og sige, at jeg sender Dem en kasse vin i anledning af julen også som en slags bod for min overilethed, da jeg før spurgte om, hvorfor hr. Moorhouse nu skulle have ordet.
Mr Rogalla (S). — (DE) Madam President, I shall follow Mr Moreland's suggestion here and now and give notice that I shall send you a case of wine for Christmas as a kind of penance for the hasty way I asked why Mr Morehouse should be allowed to speak now.
Jeg mener, vi bør gå videre ad denne vej og bestræbe os på at være nærdemokratiske, også selv om der ikke er fjernsynskameraer i salen mere, og sørge for, at der skabes fornuftige løsninger.
I think we should continue in the same humanistic vein, even if the television cameras are no longer in the House, and ensure that sensible solutions are found.
Hvad taler egentlig imod, at man inkluderer disse korte sejlture under undtagelsesbestemmelserne.
First of all, however, I should like to thank the rapporteur for his report and for undertaking to find a solution to a problem which has occupied us in the European Parliament for some years.
I grunden er der slet ikke noget, der taler imod, heller ikke fællesskabsinteressen, for man overlader det blot til medlemsstaterne at give afkald på at opkræve bestemte afgifter.
I am convinced that when we vote on it the day after tomorrow we shall find that the majority are in favour of it.
Det er i første række forbrugsafgifterne, og de er i forvejen nationale afgifter, så længe de ikke er harmoniseret og europæiseret.
The rapporteur thought it was now no longer possible to abolish these taxfree shops as the authorities have allowed them to grow to their present extent.
Hertil kommer merværdiafgiften — her har Fællesskabet naturligvis en vis interesse på grund af sin andel i merværdiafgiften — men denne interesse turde nok være ganske ringe.
Abolition would have considerable economic, social and psychological consequences and would not benefit Europe in any way.
Jeg taler her på egne vegne og også på vegne af en række af mine kolleger i gruppen, navnlig hr. von der Vring, hr. Walter, hr. Klinkenborg og hr. Seeler, der alle har valgkredse ved kysten og overhovedet ikke kan forstå — jeg begrænser mig her til det syvende direktiv — hvorfor der nu i såkaldte princippers og i retfærdighedens navn skal rokkes ved en tradition, så mange arbejdspladser bliver truet.
I am speaking now for myself and for several of my colleagues in my group, particularly Mr von der Vring, Mr Walter, Mr Kleinkenborg and Mr Seeler who all have constitutencies on the coast and are completely unable to understand — I confine myself to the Seventh Directive — why a tradition should be cut away in the name of socalled principles and justice thus putting many jobs in jeopardy.
Til de oplysninger, som hr. Irmer lige netop har givet, kan jeg desuden føje, at der i de seneste år er investeret ca. 50 mio DM i nybygninger i forbindelse med disse skibe, og at det egentlig er vanvittigt, at vi i dette forum beskæftiger os med sagen og fratager mennesker deres livsgrundlag på basis af et usikkert retsgrundlag.
Let me add to the information which my colleague Mr Irmer has just given by saying that over the last few years almost DM 50 million have been invested in the construction of new ships of this type and that it is a nonsense for us to concern ourselves with it here and to deprive someone of their livelihood without a sound legal foundation.
Der er sikkert en og anden, der vil henvise til Domstolens dem i retsag nr. 158/80 af 7. juli 1981.
Undoubtedly someone will refer to the judgement of the European Court of Justice in Case No 158/80 of 7 July 1980.
Til det kan jeg kun sige, at denne dom blev afsagt, fordi der ikke fandtes et forudseende Parlament, der dengang kunne have skabt et retsgrundlag i forordning nr. 169/69, sådan som vi vil gøre det for taxfree shops i dag.
I can only reply that this judgment was passed because the Parliament lacked foresight when it could have provided a legal foundation in Regulation 169/69, just as we are trying to do for taxfree shops now.
Hvis vi skaber et retsgrundlag for taxfree shops, skal vi samme åndedrag skabe et retsgrundlag for udflugtsbådene, og det tjener forslaget, som jeg har stillet, til.
If we provide a legal foundation for the taxfree shops we must provide a legal basis for these excursions in the same breath and that is the purpose of the motion which I have laid before you.
Der er tre elementer — der er landvejen, søvejen og luftvejen.
What is happening in the German coastal Länder is regional policy in practice.
Hvordan vil vi retfærdiggøre, at vi med afgiftsfritagelser i højere grad fremmer transport ad landvejen og udveksling mellem borgerne.
I am only sorry — and it would probably simplify things somewhat — that nothing similar is happening in Great Britain or along the other sea frontiers of the Community.
Jeg er af den opfattelse, at vi slet ikke har behov for afgiftsfri tagelser, at vi kunne gå langt ud over det, som i øjeblikket planlægges, at vi kunne give alle borgere i
Moreover we also have to consider a social component. There are hundreds of thousands of pensioners, of the under-privileged in our society, who regularly go on cruises of this kind and who travel for one or two days, people from Berlin for instance, who journey to the sea in their thousands so that they too can make use of this facility.
Her — og det er det væsentlige i hele spørgsmålet — står arbejdspladser på spil, og i denne forbindelse taler jeg ikke alene på egne vegne, men på mange tusinde medborgeres vegne, navnlig i Slesvig-Holsten, hr. Narjes hjemstavn, og ved Niedersachsens nordsøkyst, hvor man lever af udflugtsbådene og er bange for at miste arbejdspladser, hvis disse ændringsforslag ikke vedtages, jeg skal blot nævne et par tal.
How can we justify our particular encourage ment of land travel and the movement of our citizens by means of dutyfree allowances. It is my opinion that we do not in fact need any taxfree allowances, that we could go much further than the present proposals, that we could give all the citizens of the Commu nity the right to take goods with them at any time regardless of any economic consequences — please note : within the Community — without anyone having to check any taxfree allowance.
Efter oplysninger fra økonoministeriet dér, rammes alene i Slesvig-Holsten omkring 130 skibe; det er alene næsten 3 000 arbejdspladser.
Nothing would happen in the Community, there would be no economic disruption, everything would be in the proper order ; but if we do not do this, if we only want to proceed gradually : then let us proceed gradually and with justice and treat land travel in the same way as air and sea travel, excursions or no.
Hertil kommer underleverandører, busselskaber, hotelerhvervet, også detailhandelen.
These cruises have existed since around 1950, the broad outlines were in fact under discussion here, there was talk of the Schuman plan, Europe was still a long way in the future.
Det skal man ikke undervurdere.
Since then ten million people have made use of this opportunity.
Rogalla dette Fællesskab, uden at komme ind på eventuelle økonomiske følgevirkninger, ret til når som helst at tage varer med — vel at mærke: inden for Fælles skabet — uden at nogen skulle kontrollere eventuelle afgiftsfri mængder eller beløb.
83 von Hassel described his shops as a licence to print money. I do not believe that it is the function of the State in a capitalist society or even in a socialist society to award licences to print money to people who take no risk.
Disse borgere konstaterer nu — det er det psykologiske: Da Europa endnu ikke fandtes, nød vi godt af spritbådene.
These people say — and this is the psychological aspect — when there was no Europe we were able to enjoy these cruises.
I dag, hvor vi har et Europa, nedlægges de.
Now that Europe exists it is being stopped.
Det er et besynderligt Europa!
This is a funny kind of Europe !
Afsluttende vil jeg blot bede om, at Kommissionen også her tager sig kraftigt sammen, for hvis Kommissionen ikke tager hensyn til disse forslag, så må vi mellem grupperne én gang til diskutere, hvordan vi sætter skub i sagen.
For this reason I would urge the Commission to reconsider whether, as the rapporteur said just now at the end of his explanatory statement, it should really only be guided by the legal aspect instead of by economic, social and psychological necessity.
Af den grund tror jeg, at Europas borgere, som vi vil fortælle, at de skal stemme ved det næste valg, som vi vil fortælle, hvad Europa betyder, som hr. von Wogau netop sagde, af de muligheder, som de rent faktisk får, vil aflede, om dette Europa er noget positivt eller ej.
The result is that there is a built-in, substantial income for Manchester which Liverpool does not possess and which gives Manchester a very large competitive advantage in looking for traffic.
Derfor skal jeg bede Kommissionen meget indtrængende om endnu en gang at overveje, om den virkelig kun, som ordføreren for lidt siden i slutningen af sit indlæg gav udtryk for, skal rette sig efter juridiske principper og ikke efter det, som er økonomisk, socialt og psykologisk nødvendigt.
The problem with Liverpool is that it is not big enough to merit the award of a dutyfree shop by Her Majesty's Customs and Excise, but as the operators of Liverpool will tell you, they cannot grow any bigger because the customers will not go to Liverpool Airport, because it does not have a dutyfree shop. In other words, there is a totally insoluble problem.
En dom siger noget om den eksisterende retstilstand i det givne øjeblik.
A legal judgment refers to the actual legal position at the time.
Retstilstanden er skabt af mennesker.
The legal position is created by men.
Altså kan vi også ændre den og videreudvikle den.
We can therefore change it and develop it further.
Derfor min indtrængende, inderlige anmodning til Kommissionen, om endnu en gang at overveje disse ting.
It is for this reason that I urge the Commission most strongly to consider these things once more.
von Hassel (PPE). — (DE) Fru formand, der er frem ført en række gode bemærkninger til det tema, som jeg gerne endnu en gang vil uddybe, nemlig spritbådene, som de kaldes i folkemunde.
I ask my British colleagues to consider that hundreds of thousands of bottles of Scotch whisky which would other wise be surplus are disposed of on these butter cruises.
Jeg er over bevist om, at vi ved afstemningen i overmorgen også vil finde et flertal derfor.
Perhaps this will make it easier for you to vote the day after tomorrow.
Hr. Irmer har allerede nævnt de økonomiske problemer.
They are measured in tens of millions of pounds every year.
Han påpegede, hvor mange arbejds pladser, hvor mange skibe, busser, virksomheder, der er afhængige heraf, hvor meget, der udbetales i løn, og hvor mange mennesker, der benytter sig af disse spritbåde.
It is also a fact that our great national white elephant, Stansted Airport, the airport that nobody wants, is subsidized entirely out of the dutyfree shops' profits at Heathrow.
Der er 10 millioner, der hver år gør brug af denne mulighed! Se dog på, hvor disse både sejler hen!
Stansted can therefore offer exceptionally low landing charges to aircraft from all over the world and it does so in competition with airports like Manchester.
De sejler fra kysterne, ved grænserne, altså i de svage regioner, Fællesskabets randområder.
In other words, the entire operation of airports in the United Kingdom is distorted by duty free shops.
Hopper (ED). — (EN) Hr. formand, jeg er bange for, at jeg er en af de purister, hr. Moreland hentydede til, dies en røgter af den frie konkurrence.
Mr Hopper (ED). — Mr President, I am afraid I am one of the purists to whom Mr Moreland alluded, that is to say a purist in favour of competition.
Min gruppes holdning er allerede klar, og den er, at gruppen går ind for både direktivet og Delorozoybetænkningen.
My group's position is already clear and it is that the group favours both the directive and the Delorozoy reports.
Det gør vi af to grunde: Den ene er, at den britiske offentlighed og også offentligheden i samtlige andre medlemsstater tror jeg, går ind for taxfree shops.Den anden grund, som hr. Delorozoy så smukt har sagt det, er, at der er en stor sammen blanding af bestemmelserne vedrørende disse forretninger, og direktivet som ændret af hr. Delorozoy, vil rydde op i denne sammenblanding.
It does so for two reasons, one is that the British public, and I believe the public in all Member States, is in favour of dutyfree shops. The second, as Mr Delorozoy has so eloquently said, is that there is considerable confusion in the arrangements surrounding these shops and the directives, as amended by Mr Delorozoy, will tidy up that confusion. sion.
Og det er et princip i Fællesskabet, at styrke de svage områder i randområderne via regionalpolitikken.
I believe that we must look at them in this economic context.
Det, der sker ved kysterne i de tyske delstater, er regional politik i praksis!
Indeed, we have to look at the operation of airports along with the operation of airlines.
Jeg beklager kun — sandsynligvis havde det gjort mangt og meget lettere for os — at noget lignende ikke finder sted i Storbritannien eller ved andre af Fællesskabets havgrænser.
This parliament has addressed itself to the problem of airlines, to the totally irrational organization of airlines in Western Europe ; it should also address itself to the totally irrational organization of airports and dutyfree shops.
Min personlige holdning er noget anderledes end gruppens.
My own position is somewhat different from my group's.
Jeg tror, at vi er nødt til at se på taxfree shops i deres økonomiske sammenhæng. Det er autoriserede monopoler på bestemte steder, men monopoler, der fungerer i gigantisk målestok.
I think we have to look at these shops in their economic context.
Som tyde liggjort af andre talere er omsætningen i disse forretninger meget høj, og de har alle de økonomiske fejl, som monopoler har.
As other speakers have made clear, the turnover in these shops is very great and they have all the economic faults of monopolies. First of all, there is a very large monopoly profit.
For det første er monopolfortje-
They are fixed by administrative fiat.
Desuden er der også et socialt aspekt at tage hensyn til.
In some cases, it is clawed back by as much as 70 % ; in others by 30 %.
Hundrede tusinder af pensionister, af socialt svagere stillede blandt vore befolkninger, tager regel mæssigt på sådanne sejlture og er på tur et par dage, f.eks. berlinere, der i tusindvis tager ud til kysten for også at nyde godt af denne mulighed.
One of the concessionaires of a chain of dutyfree shops in my own country, in an indiscreet moment,
Jeg mener, at det er retfærdigt over for forbrugeren.
I believe that this is fair to the consumer.
Jeg mener også, at det i stort omfang vil mindske det misbrug, der er opstået omkring denne institution.
I also believe that it will greatly reduce the abuses arising from this institution.
I et øjebliks indiskretion beskrev en af indehaverne af en kæde af duty-free shops i mit land sine forretninger som en bevilling til at trykke penge, jeg tror ikke, at det er statens opgave hverken i et kapitalistisk samfund eller selv i et socialistisk samfund at give mennesker, der ikke løber nogen risiko, bevilling til at trykke penge.
Since goods can be bought free of tax in these shops it is not so easy to justify high exemption limits as with the continuously increasing exemption limits for goods on which tax has been paid. This is why the Commission has proposed that the taxfree values and quantities for goods bought by travellers in dutyfree shops within the Community should be set in exactly the same way as the exemption limits which apply to travellers from third countries.
Narjes, medlem af Kommissionen. — (DE) Jeg skal først takke talerne, der med deres inspirerende indlæg har opridset hele temaets spændvidde: på den ene side kravet til Kommissionen om at sætte sig ud over alle juridiske betænkeligheder og i denne søde juletid lade storsindet råde, hvilket ellers ikke er normalt i afgiftsanliggender, og på den anden side hr. Hoppers nøgterne betragtninger, der peger på den økonomiske rationalitet og på nødvendigheden af, at retfærdig heden også sker fyldest her.
Mr Narjes, Member of the Commission — (DE) Firstly I should like to thank all the speakers for the stimulating way in which they have shown the breadth of this topic : on the one hand we have the request to the Commission to brush aside all legal considerations and to act with a generosity which is uncustomary in fiscal matters, because it is Christmas, and on the other we have Mr Hopper's clear-headed approach which calls on economic expediency and the necessity of acting justly.
Vi må også se på disse forretningers økonomiske indvirkning på luftfartsselskabernes og lufthavnenes drift, og virkningen er en forvridning.
The proposal for a Sixth Directive on tax exemptions provides that the tax exemptions based on value are to be increased gradually, the maximum quantities for wine increased and the maximum quantities for tea and coffee gradually abolished completely.
Tag f.eks. grevskabet Lancashire, der har to lufthavne, Liverpool og Manchester; i Manchester er der en taxfree shop, i Liverpool er der ingen ...
These prop osals accord with the views expressed by Parliament on more than one occasion.
Det er endnu en grund til at takke ordføren for det møjsommelige arbejde, det har været for ham at omforme denne mangfoldighed af synsvinkler til en betænkning, der kan bruges som diskussions- og afstemningsgrundlag, og som også viser, hvordan et kompliceret emne kan kompliceres yderlige, når det udsættes for den lidenskabelighed, som synsvinklerne forfægtes med.
This is all the more reason to thank the rapporteur most sincerely for carrying out the difficult task of compiling from this wealth of views a report which provides a valid basis for debate and voting and which also shows how a complex matter can become even more complex in the light of deeply-held views.
Der findes vist ikke nogen medlemsstat, hvor forbrugsafgifter og toldlove ikke er utrolig komplicerede.
There is not, I think, a single Member State in which the subject of excise duties and customs law is not enormously complicated.
Det hænger sammen med emnet, og det kan man især ikke undgå på europæisk plan, fordi vi skal tage hensyn til de forskellige situationer i de ti medlemsstater.
It is inherent in the subject matter and it is inevitable at European level because the differing situations in the ten Member States have to be taken into account.
Netop derfor mener jeg, at det er påkrævet endnu en gang at redegøre for på hvilket grundlag Kommissionen har stillet sine forslag.
It is precisely for this reason that I feel bound to explain once more the basis of the Commission proposals.
Den skal måles i adskillige gange 10 mio pund sterling pr. år.
The first of these motions could, regrettably, be based on a misunderstanding.
Det er også et faktum, at støtten til nationens statussymbol, Stansted Airport, den lufthavn, som ingen ønsker, finansieres fuldt ud af overskuddet fra de afgiftsfrie butikker i Heathrow.
The proposed addition to Article 4 of the basic Directive is in no way connected with the question of dutyfree shops and is intended only to clarify the present situation by reconciling Article 4 and Article 2.
Stansted kan derfor tilbyde exceptionelt lave landingsafgifter for fly fra hele verden, og det gør man i konkurrence med lufthavne som Manchester.
It is therefore only only a clarification of the logic and neither alters the substance of the existing rule nor attempts to anticipate the proposals contained in the draft of the Seventh Directive.
Med andre ord fordrejes al drift af lufthavne i Det forenede Kongerige af de afgiftsfrie forretninger.
I hope therefore that you will re-examine this motion for an amendment and withdraw it.
I øjeblikket indeholder direktiv nr. 169 to typer afgiftsfritagelser nemlig en værdibaseret fritagelse og en kvantitativ fritagelse for afgiftspligtige varer.
At present Directive No 169 provides for two kinds of exemption, one based on value and the other quantitative ones for goods subject to excise duty.
Omfanget af disse afgiftsfritagelser afhænger af, om de indførte varer stammer fra en anden medlemsstat eller fra et tredjeland.
The amount of the exemption depends on whether the goods are imported from another Member State or from a third country.
Inden for rammerne af den værdibaserede fritagelse kan en rejsende i øjeblikket indføre varer op til en værdi af 210 ECU, hvis han har erhvervet dem med afgift i en almindelig forretning i et andet medlemsland.
Under the exemption based on value travellers may at the moment import goods to a value not exceeding 210 ECU, if they have been purchased tax paid in a normal sales outlet in another Member State.
For varer fra tredjelande udgør det afgiftsfri beløb 45 ECU, uafhængig af, om der er betalt afgift eller ej.
Dutyfree sales in particular are the object of the proposal for a seventh directive.
For varer, hvoraf der skal svares forbrugsafgifter, andrager de afgiftsfrie mængder 1 eller 1l/i 1 spiritus,
This question has become a subject of considerable debate recently and as you know was the occasion of an appeal to the European Court of Justice.
Jeg tror, at vi må betragte dem ud fra denne økonomiske synsvinkel.
The present Community regulations are not exactly a model of precision and clarity.
Vi må nødvendigvis se på lufthavnenes drift sammen med luftfartsselskabernes drift.
We admit this quite freely. There is doubt particularly about the correct interpretation of the provisions relating to sales in dutyfree shops at airports and on board ships.
Parlamentet har her givet sig i kast med problemet med luftfartsselskaberne, med luftfartsselskabernes helt irrationelle organisation i Vesteuropa; det burde også give sig i kast med den helt irrationelle måde, lufthavne og taxfree shops er organiseret på.
More over the extent of the tax exemption granted in individual Member States is not uniform because some Member States give the same exemption for taxfree goods as for goods obtained tax-paid, whilst others confine the exemption to the values and quantities laid down for imports from third countries.
