I sandhedens interesse må det siges, at kommissær Dalsager i går gjorde et forsøg — men det var kun et halvhjertet forsøg — på virkelig at forklare sagen.
We as Christian Democrats have always been prepared to discuss all questions, including that of the fairness of the British contribution but we oppose an inadmissible linking of two distinct issues i.e. the fulfillment of our duties on the one hand and preparedness for political discussion on the other.
Jeg mener, at redegørelsen i går var nyttig.
One of two things must have happend.
Den satte en stopper for noget af den usikkerhed, som opstod på grund af uforsigtige udtalelser i Athen, og det er helt klart, at vi i Fællesskabet nu står over for en pengestrømskrise. Hvordan man skal komme igennem den likviditetsmangel er et spørgsmål, som vi må overveje meget nøje i de kommende uger.
Either the Commission knew it was going to take such a decision, which is not impossible, and in that case we should be told why Parliament was not given any prior notice, or the situation deteriorated in only a few hours, which I find difficult to believe, as do you.
Jeg mener, at Parlamentet må have alle kendsgerningerne at vide, fordi der må være nogle udgifter for Fællesskabet, som opstår ved de foranstaltninger, der er nævnt i den redegørelse, som er blevet givet. Jeg vil gerne forklare, hvad jeg mener.
And in that case we are entitled to fear the worst on the Commission's own ability to forecast.
Ville det ikke være muligt for kommissærerne at finde en middelvej? Smørret skal lagres for den europæiske skatteborgers penge.
Mr President, I hope you will understand this annoyance and disappointment and realize that these things are not conducive to increasing the confidence of this Parliament in the Commission.
Der skal ydes tilskud til afsætningen af det.
Those are the questions to which I would like an answer.
Kunne man ikke finde ud af, om det rent faktisk var muligt at få europæiske forbrugere til at købe mere smør?
The fact now remains that the Community can no longer run away from the problem of reforming the common agricultural policy.
Jeg anmoder indtrængende Kommissionen om selv på dette sene tidspunkt at undersøge, om ikke vi kan finde en bedre ordning end den nuværende, da vi nu altså har smørret.
All our present problems demonstrate this, and any further delay will put the future of Europe at even greater risk than it is already.
Jeg vil også gerne stille Kommissionen to spørgsmål.
President. — (NL) Mr Langes, I beg you to appreciate the difficulties of presiding on such a turbulent sitting.
Jeg mener, at den måde, hvorpå De tager fat på dette problem i forbindelse med tillægsbudgettet, uanset om De mente det eller ej — og jeg ønsker ikke at være uretfærdig over for Kommissionen — det er nemlig meget let at kritisere Dem — har ført til en vis svækkelse af netop den politik, De siger, De forsvarer.
When high-ranking personages from the groups answer specific questions of procedure, it puts the President in an ambiguous situation.
Jeg ved, fordi jeg har talt med dem, at kooperativerne i mit eget land, de mennesker, der arbejder inden for landbrugsindustrien, rent faktisk ikke ved, hvad der
I beg your pardon once more for the lack of attention to your important speech, but ask you to appreciate the difficulties facing the President.
Jeg mener, at Kommissionen forsinker afsætningen af de enorme restitutionslagre.
Mr Davern (DEP). — Mr President, in your reply to the point of order you said I would be called after Mr Provan.
Jeg kan ikke tolke det på anden måde.
You totally forgot about that.
Restitutionsomkostningerne og afsætningsomkostningerne ville helt klart være betydelig større.
I would just like to remind the Chair that we do not want to see repetitions of yesterday's confusion in this House in regard
Det hjælper ikke blot at skubbe problemet over på det næste finansår. Jeg vil gerne bede om et svar på det spørgsmål, hr. formand.
Mr Provan (ED). — Mr President, I welcome this opportunity of taking part in a debate on this subject.
Di Bartolomei (L). — (LT) Hr. formand, medlem merne i denne sal blev rystet i går af to begivenheder, der tilsyneladende var marginale, men i virkeligheden meget vigtige.
Mr Bocklet (PPE). — (DE) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the Commission maintains that it has acted in accordance with the market arrangements and the Treaties whereas I would claim that its action is verging on an infringement of Community legislation.
Jeg havde personligt stillet spørgsmål for at få at vide, hvilke vanskeligheder, Kommissionen kunne møde, hvis tillægsbudgettet ikke blev vedtaget til tiden.
However, subsequently it did something which undermines one's confidence in the legality of their action, i.e. it stated that during these 10 days it would examine what was to be done subsequently.
Og det blev vist helt klart i løbet af dette møde i budget udvalget, at hvis budgettet blev vedtaget senest ved anden behandling, dvs. inden slutningen af oktober, så ville Kommissionen ikke have nogen vanskelig heder med at opfylde sine forpligtelser over for Land brugsfonden.
In saying this, an element of uncertainty came into the question which has serious implications as regards our confidence in the legality of its action in terms of Community law. This is the whole problem.
Jeg synes der for, at det er helt på sin plads at spørge : hvad sker der med Fællesskabets landbrug?
I think that irreparable damage has already been done to our export markets this week.
Har de to begivenheder ikke nogen indbyrdes forbindelse, og er det helt tilfældigt, at de falder sammen?
It is due to the consistent failure of this Commission as a body to put European interests first.
Det ville faktisk være let at tage de formelle motivationer væk.
They have continually failed to stand up to American aggression on the market.
For det første: hvor meget beløber de blokerede restitutioner sig til?
Now they comfort us with export refunds.
Tal er blevet lagt frem og gentaget her og der.
It is the smaller exporter in particular who will now be badly hit.
Bekræfter eller afkræfter Kommissionen dem?
For the last three or four years, the trend has been ever lower incomes.
Hvorfor skal man så på en så ophidset og alarmerende måde henlede opmærksomheden på landbrugsudgifterne?
We now have the superlevy, an increase in coresponsibility and we are told there will be no support for exports.
Hvorfor sprede panik blandt eksportørerne, eventuelt påvirke strømmene på verdensmarkedet og skade Fællesskabets omdømme på et så vanskeligt tidspunkt af dets eksistens?
You have destroyed the confidence that people had in our proven farming output and the hope that it would continue.
For det andet: hvilke virkninger får denne beslutning, hvis den ellers opretholdes?
This is the reproach we are making, and the result will be that no one will enter into contracts any more on the grounds that he does not know where he will stand in 10 days time.
Det er givet utænkeligt, at en sådan blokering af bevillinger ikke skulle få indvirkning på medlemslandenes budgetter.
This phrase in the statement is totally superfluous, however, since it is in fact there — and I assume the Commission had something in mind when it included it — I can only surmise that the Commission was intending to have a destructive effect on the market and we have already, i.e. last summer, had an opportunity of seeing what this leads to in another case, whereby the Commission was first of all unable to agree on introducing initial intervention in the case of lowest-quality baking wheat and this led to an immediate drop of 20 % in the quota tions for baking wheat.
Vi ved jo, at sådanne folk ikke behøver megen tid, før de går i aktion.
What copper-bottomed guarantee can the Commission give us that the suspension will in fact be lifted at the time indicated when at the same time unidentified Commission officials are reported in the papers as saying this will continue till the end of the year ?
Vi er overbevist om, at der er meget, der bør revideres i den fælles landbrugspolitik, og med hensyn til dette afventer vi resultaterne af møderne i Athen.
Because of this mismanagement concerns are now being expressed amongst parliamentarians — will this continue till the end of this year ?
Men man må indrømme, at der hviler en tung byrde på forløbet af forhandlingerne og de betingelser — det være sig afslappede eller alarmerende — som de foregår under.
Or is this another slipshod method of ending it completely, or at least by 50 %, according to 'unofficial' sources within the Commission — in actual fact high-placed officials ?
Til afslutning vil jeg gerne sig, at efter vor mening er der absolut ingen berettigelse for denne beslutning, eller også har den haft til hensigt at lægge pres på Rådet og Parlamentet.
The same thing will happen in other product areas as a result of the Commission bringing in an unnecessary element of uncertainty and I can only go along with what Mr Langes has already said, i.e. that there must be some ulterior motive.
Vi mener, at den bør tilbage kaldes. I alle tilfælde er det ikke antageligt, at Kommissionen, som ikke lader nogen lejlighed gå fra sig til at bekræfte sin funktion som vogter af trak taten, kan opføre sig, som den har gjort.
The Commission is quite obviously trying, before a decision is reached in Athens, to establish a fait accompli by undermining the necessary preconditions for the proper functioning of this market by means of measures such as those I have just described.
Den har pligt til at forvalte Det europæiske Fællesskabs midler, men den har ikke magt til at fastfryse dem uden noget samråd, og jeg vil endda gå så vidt at sige i modstrid med de meget klare redegørelser, der blev givet os i budgetudvalget.
I would therefore strongly urge the representatives of the Commission to take this opportunity here in Parliament and make it quite clear that nothing unexpected will happen after these 10 days have elapsed, but that the old arrangements will simply be resumed.
Det er da helt klart, at man bør tilstræbe fremskridt også i andre sektorer og opbygge nye fællesskabsstrategier. Men det ville være værre end en forbrydelse, en alvorlig politisk fejl, hvis man for at realisere nye strategier angriber landbrugspolitikken.
Finally, in regard to my own country, I would say to the Commissioner that if these suspensions are not lifted and full restitution made, the 2 000 million pound food trade in our country, which already has the highest level of unemployment in this Community, will be seriously jeopardized.
Det er den diskussion, man fører i Athen, og som vi selv har haft, og som vi vil komme tilbage til som led i den forestående forhandling om budgettet i løbet af denne mødeperiode.
And again I would ask him to give an assurance to the Community, to this Parliament today, that they will be lifted and restitution will be paid.
Kirk d'Ormesson (PPE).:— (FR) Den forvirring, der er opstået i sindene, i denne Forsamling, er efter min mening en afspejling af den usikkerhed, som råder ikke alene inden for Kommissionen, men også i Rådet.
Experience has shown that it is not possible to give accurate figures in advance for payments under the EAGGF guarantee section, and if the budget was going to prove insufficient it would have been better to wait for the end of the year before deciding to delay payment of restitutions.
Jeg tror for min del, at Kommissionen har villet give os en advarsel.
Why should this decision have been taken today, when it will shake the market at the expense of operators and farmers ?
Den har.ganske vist manglet koldblodighed, men den har på samme måde villet give en advarsel til Rådet, og det er ikke helt uvæsentligt.
Why should such a hurried decision be taken, except to apply pressure to Parliament in its voting on the budget and, even more serious, to spread alarm just as the debate opens on changes in the agricultural policy.
Det er vel 20-30 år siden, at private virksomheder opdagede vigtigheden af, at man havde kontrol med pengestrømmen; men denne viden og opdagelse er endnu ikke kommet til Kommissionens åbenbaring.
And that is the case because these payments chiefly affect Greek products, such as cotton, olive oil, tobacco, wine, beans and sugar.
Det kan jo ikke være ukendt for Kommissionen, at udgifterne til landbrugspriserne er steget i år.
The Greek cotton producers were already up in arms because their subsidy had been stopped at 80 % with the promise chat the remainder would be handed over later.
Priserne på verdensmarkedet har tydeligt vist, at udgifterne for EUGFL vil være stigende. Alligevel kan man bringe sig selv i en sådan situation, at man er nødt til at lukke for EUGFLs kasse og dermed så en vældig mistillid til hele den fælles landbrugspolitik.
The same goes for the 25 000 wine-growers of Attica, whom I visited recently, because instead of a guaranteed price, a guide price of 14.40 drachmas a kilo for grapes used in wine with an alcoholic content of 12 degrees was announced at a time when the cost of these grapes exceeded 18 drachmas a kilo.
Men på samme måde har vi en følelse af, at denne Forsamling og Deres Kommission ikke når til forhandlingens egentlige kerne.
I would draw the Commisson's attention to what is at stake in that debate.
Vi er bundet af den fælles landbrugspolitik, i bund og grund bundet af dens principper, og vi er også bundet af opbygningen af den europæiske union og styrkelsen af dens sikkerhed.
Changes in the Common Agricultural policy cannot be considered only in the context of the budget, but only as a whole.
Så længe vi ikke ønsker at etablere virkelige regler for vore landes tiltrædelse, så længe vi ikke vil drøfte deres evne til at bidrage, så svigter vi vor opgave.
If debate is to be fruitful it must be conducted calmly and I can only deplore the way in which the Commission has created this atmosphere of panic : there can be no doubt that it is a threat to the future of the European Community. nity.
Jeg vil gerne understrege det, som det ærede medlem hr. Bocklet var inde på tidligere: at dette ikke er et spørgsmål, om Kommissionen har mulighed for at tilbageholde betalinger eller ej.
Mr President, it is well known that Greek farmers have been greatly harmed by the common agricultural policy.
Jeg er godt klar over, at Kommissionen ikke går konkurs.
Mr Bonde (CDI). — (DE) Mr President, I should like to put a few questions to the Commission.
Der er ingen, der i dag vil være i stand til fuldt ansvarligt at eksportere deres produkter ud af Fællesskabet.
Now the minimal support which was being given has been stopped.
Der aner ikke, om de får betaling fra Fællesskabets side, er aner ikke, om de får eksportrestitutionerne.
We find this anti-agricultural decision scandalous.
Jeg mener, det vil være til stor skade for os alle sammen, hvis de forretningsforbindelser, der er etableret igennem årtier, lige pludselig skal mistes, fordi Kommissionen ikke har været i stand til at leve op til sit ansvar.
While it offers thousands of millions to the monopolies, the Commission has found an easy way to deprive millions of poor farmers of their livelihood. hood.
Da jeg for nylig har studeret oversigten over udgifterne og landenes bidrag til budgettet, så må jeg indrømme, at den forvridning, som viste sig mellem det bidrag, der kræves af vore britiske venner og deres muligheder for finansiering, forekom mig urimelig.
We are expressing our protest on behalf of three million Greek farmers and we demand that this decision be revoked and that the necessary amounts of money be obtained from other sectors.
Ingen af os har mod nok til at gå i dybden med denne sag. I stedet for at gøre os bebrejdelser, så tror jeg, det ville være bedre at gå i gang med problemet i hele dets rækkevidde og give reelle betingelser for nye regler, som ikke alene ville tvinge medlemslandene til at tilhøre Det europæiske monetære System — det skulle så være en grundlæggende betingelse — men også at kræve bidrag fra dem, der svarer til deres fiansieringsmuligheder.
Mr Delatte (L). — (FR) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I do not wish to appear discourteous towards the Commission but it does appear that the lack of consistency in the various statements it has issued following the Athens meetings of foreign ministers and agricultural ministers on the Community's financial situation has given rise to some concern.
Med henblik på dette, så har hr. Notenboom allerede stillet et vitalt spørgsmål.
The decision taken on Tuesday night to suspend advances of restitutions for certain products has increased that concern.
Han har spurgt om, hvilket udbytte, industrierne i hvert land har af fællesmarkedet, for at kunne opstille en nøjagtig status over medlemslandenes muligheder for bidrag.
That can unfortunately be seen through the very disturbing newspaper headlines and articles published today.
Endelig vil jeg sige, at dette også har konsekvenser for Fællesskabet i al almindelighed.
Why was it not possible for you to give better warning of the decisions reached ?
Vi har jo hørt, hvordan den danske kommunist, hr. Bonde, kan bruge dette til at så mistillid omkring Fællesskabet.
Why was it not possible to present the figures a little earlier and put the matter to the Council of Ministers for it to decide ?
Det er ikke underligt, at kommunisterne, som er imod De europæiske Fællesskaber, forsøger at bruge enhver situation til at prøve på at fortegne billedet.
Why did you have to, as it were, hold the farmers to ransom rather than asking the Council of Ministers to decide what expenditure should be suspended if funds were to run out ?
Derfor vil jeg meget henstille til Kommissionen så hurtigt som muligt at få normaliseret denne situation, således at dette ikke kan misbruges over for de europæiske borgere.
Why did the Commission virtually assume that the farmers would have to be the scapegoats, even though they have legal rights to certain payments ?
Får vi svar på hr. Notenbooms spørgsmål?
Agricultural expenditure consists of fixed items.
Til slut, hr. formand, vil jeg gerne stille følgende to spørgsmål til Kommissionen: Hvornår vil Kommissionen gennemføre et likviditetssystem, der sikrer, at vi aldrig mere kommer i denne situation?
Mr Tugendhat addressed the House to confirm that we still had sufficient resources before starting on the supplementary budget. He added that the supplementary budget might not be enough to meet all expenditure until the end of the year.
Er Kommissionen indstillet på at betale de ekstra restitutionsbeløb til eksportørerne, som bliver nødvendige på grund af de ekstraudgifter, eksportørerne får til rentebetaling på de beløb, de skal lægge ud på Fællesskabets vegne?
This sudden concern before voting on the supplementary budget — which was, after all, based on figures provided by the Commission — is, to put it mildly, surprising and in any event no justification for the brutal decision taken
Vi bruger et noget mere vulgært udtryk, som jeg mener, hr. Davern brugte tidligere.
In fairness, Commissioner Dalsager yesterday made some attempt — but it was only a partial attempt — to explain it.
om meddelelsen blev givet videre, om der var nogen, der sagde: har De for resten hørt om dette lille problem?
farmers are making the greatest demands on Community funds would appear to be gaining ground but this is not true.
Ministrene var i Athen, men det lader ikke til, at de hørte noget om problemet.
If we look at the trends in agricultural incomes we see that in 1982 — which was the best year so far in the Community — the average Danish farmer earned 84% of what he earned in the year in which he was dreaming of high prices in the Community.
Da så den del af debatten, som angår landbrugsanliggender, er afsluttet forlader landbrugskommissæren selvfølgelig Athen.
It is very unfortunate, as I see it, that it should be agricultural expenditure — a vital form of expenditure — which should be coming in for this treatment and that possible decisions were not put before the Council in good time.
Ministrene læser så historien om krisen, som på en eller anden måde er sivet ud til pressen, og de siger til formanden for Kommissionen: kære Gaston, hvad er der egentlig på færde?
In view of the serious nature of this decision, I would like to ask the President of the Commission which members in fact voted in favour of it and, in particular, whether Mr Dalsager was among them.
Men Gaston har ikke fået sit brev, så det ved han ikke!
Would it not be possible for the Commissioners to find some middle course of action ?
Kommissionen er spredt for alle vinde, og de ved ikke, hvad der sker.
The butter has to be stored at the expense of the European taxpayer.
Det er ikke en sammensværgelse. Det er forvirring.
It has to be disposed of with refunds.
Efter min dybeste overbevisning mener jeg, at denne sag hører ind under den sidste kategori.
Could we not see whether we could in fact get the European consumers to take more of it ?
Jeg mener ikke, at vi står over for en sammensværgelse.
I do not like the attitude of the Commission on that.
Der er ikke tale om ondskab, men det viser en vis svaghed i institutionen. Hvordan kommunikerer mennesker?
One that I would like to refer to at the outset is the relationship between Parliament and the Commission.
Hvis der er tale om et kollegium — tanken bag et kollegium og tanken bag et kabinet er, at de taler — kommuni kerer de. I forbindelse med hastesager findes der kommunikationsmetoder, som kan anvendes, hvis man er i stand til at improvisere, selv om dette skal følges op af visse formelle procedurer.
We try here in Parliament — we do not always succeed, of course — to take European decisions and apply European Community solutions and so, I believe, in fairness to them, does the Commission.
Det er det, der får os til at undre os over sådan noget som det her, hvis min beretning af begivenhederne er rigtig.
In the Council there is a greater tendency to adopt national positions.
Der var selvfølgelig, hvis det er denne konklusion, Kommissionen nåede frem til, andre muligheder.
Could I also ask the Commission two questions.
Det er så meget mere, end hvad der er normalt, at den måske har spurgt sig selv, om ikke der var et element af national spekulation i kravet.
I know, because I have spoken to them, that the cooperatives in my own country, the people engaged in the agro-industries, do honestly not know what is happening.
Men hvis man indrømmer, at der var tale om likviditetsvanskeligheder — og det er så spørgsmålet, om det er rigtigt eller ej; det afhænger af synsvinklen så var der alternative muligheder.
In a free enterprise society, as you well know, the climate of confidence is all impor tant.
Alt dette påvirker selvfølgelig markederne. Det påvirker de handlende. Det har virkninger, som spreder ringe i vandet.
This I feel creates a bad atmosphere ; it upsets the relationship between us, and that, I believe, should not happen.
Hvis finansministeren sagde, efter at have kigget for dybt i glasset — jeg ønsker ikke at antyde, at finansministre nogen sinde kigger for dybt i glasset — at han mente, at pundet var lidt overvurderet, kunne man være temmelig sikker på, at han ved slutningen af ugen stod over for en virkelig økonomisk krise, selv om der ikke var nogen krise, da han sagde det.
I have been informed — and please correct me if I am wrong — that as we speak in Parliament today, the Commission officials in Brussels are working out new measures which are going to be applied after the 10 days.
Det er en sådan fare, vi står overfor nu.
Now is that true ?
Den tanke, der opstår ved den måde, hele denne sag er blevet behandlet på, er, at vi, når dette sker i forbindelse med en meget lille krise, alle må frygte, hvad der vil ske, når vi til næste år oplever, hvad der meget vel kunne blive krise på krise, hvis ikke der kommer noget positivt resultat ud af topmøderne.
Will you explain them to us, because it is very important that we should know in order that we can have back the confidence that was there, at least the minimum amount of confidence that was there, before these announcements were made.
