Så vil jeg i øvrigt gerne sige om nogle af de hovedproblemer, der har været trukket frem, at det er rig tigt, at den økonomiske konvergens er et centralt punkt.
Consequently, when we air our visions of a united Europe, we must take great care not to allow the word 'discipline' to become a convenient cover for the lack of political enthusiasm on the part of the governments to make decisive moves in this direction.
I den forbindelse er der udtrykt utilfredshed med eller kritik af den profil, vi har lagt ind i vores 4-årige budget, fremskrivninger eller perspektiver for de strukturelle fondes situation.
We are call ing on the Commission and the Council to adopt a more responsible position and to state whether they wish to see Community policy advance, or whether we will slide back into a situation in which the Com munity loses its strength, and all its policies once again become a question of national interests.
Europa-Parlamentets forhandlinger
It is a matter between the Council and Parliament.
Christophersen om, at vi for de strukturelle fondes vedkommende har fire store problemer, vi skal klare i de kommende år.
I would remind you that we have four major problems as far as the structural funds are concerned, which must be solved in the coming years.
Om vendt har vi i kapitel 66, miljøkapitlet, hele 34 poster med kun 21 mio ECU.
Conversely in chapter 66, the environment chapter, we have 34 headings totalling only 21 million ECU.
Der er ikke nogen logik i så stor en forskel, men man vil kunne se af det endelige budgetforslag, at der bliver tale om en forenkling af hele konteringen, selvfølgelig med alt hvad det inde bærer, bl.a. også en større frihed for Kommissionen i sin forvaltning af tingene.
There is no logic in such a disparity, but you will be able to see from the final draft budget that there will be some simplication in the entire system of presentation, of course with all that that entails, including greater freedom for the Com mission in its administration of matters.
Men med den tillid, Parlamentet normalt giver udtryk for over for Kommissionen, kan det jo næppe være noget problem.
But with the confidence Parliament normally places in the Commission, it will hardly constitute any problem.
Hvis jeg må konkludere, tror jeg altså, at der er en meget bred overensstemmelse mellem de synspunkter, der kommer til udtryk i Currybetænkningen — og som jeg forstår at der er en bred støtte til — og de synspunkter Kommissionen vil lægge til grund for sit arbejde med de budgetmæssige problemer.
To sum up therefore, I think that there is substantial agreement between the views which have been presented in the Curry report — for which I understand there is broad support — and the views the Commission will be taking as a basis for its work on the budg etary problems.
Jeg håber, at jeg i morgen kan vende tilbage til 1986-budgetsi-tuationen.
I hope that I can return to the 1986 budgetary situation tomorrow.
For det første skal vi have finansieret betalingen af de forpligtelser, der har hobet sig op, og som ikke er blevet betalt til rette tid.
Firstly, we must secure funding for the payment of those commitments which have accumulated and which were not paid at the proper time.
For det andet skal vi være i stand til at finansiere Fællesskabets udvidelse med Spanien og Portugal.
Secondly we must be able to finance the enlargement of the Com munity to include Spain and Portugal.
For det tredje skal vi inden for rammerne af de strukturelle fonde være i stand til delvis at finansiere de integrerede middelhavsprogrammer, og for det fjerde skal vi ved hjælp af de strukturelle instrumenter øge den økonomiske og sociale konvergens.
Thirdly we must, within the possibilities of the structural funds, be able to provide partial financing for the integrated Mediterranean programmes, and fourthly we must, with the aid of the structural instruments, increase economic and social convergence.
Det er altså en meget stor budget mæssig byrde, man dermed bliver konfronteret med, og derfor er det nødvendigt ikke alene at betragte de nominelle stigninger i forpligtelserne eller i bevillin gerne fra de strukturelle fonde, men også at vurdere, om de strukturelle fonde i sig selv, dvs. de forordninger der ligger til grund for dem, i tilstrækkelig grad sigter mod konvergens.
We are thus con fronted with a very great budgetary burden, and it is therefore necessary not only to consider the nominal increases in commitments or in appropriations from the structural funds, but also to examine whether the structural funds themselves, i.e. the regulations on which they are based, make sufficient provision for convergence.
Tager vi tilstrækkeligt hensyn til de dårligst stillede regioner? Er de strukturelle fonde i for høj grad blot en clearingcentral, og er de i for ringe grad et konvergensinstrument?
Do we pay sufficient attention to the least favoured regions?
Det spørgsmål tror jeg man også i lyset af Luxembourg-aftalen bliver nødt til at drøfte, og Kommissionen har i hvert fald den opfattelse, at spørgsmålet må tages op med hen blik på at opnå en større koncentration af midlernes anvendelse, så de i højere grad fører til konvergens.
I think these are questions which must also be discussed in the light of the Luxembourg agreement, and the Commission in any case has the impression that they must be taken up with a view to achieving a greater concentration in the application of resources, so that they are more effective in bringing about convergence.
FORSÆDE : HORST SEEFELD
IN THE CHAIR: MR SEEFELD
Afstemningen finder sted i morgen kl. 19.
The vote will be taken at the next voting time.
Formanden. — Kære kolleger, jeg vil gerne også på Deres vegne byde medlemmerne af folketingets markedsudvalg under ledelse af dets formand, hr. Svend Heiselberg, der har taget plads i den officielle loge, hjertelig velkommen her i Europa-Parlamentet.
Report (Doc. A 2-9/86) by Mr Schön, on behalf of the Committee on Budgetary Control, on the discharge to be granted to the Management Board of the European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training and to the Administrative Board of the European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions in respect of the implementation of their appro priations for the 1984 financial year;
Det andet problem, der blev nævnt, er den fælles landbrugspolitik. Jeg er selvfølgelig glad for den brede støtte til retningslinjen for landbruget, men vil dog gerne udtrykke håb om, at man drager den logiske konsekvens af dette standpunkt både i Parlamentet og i Ministerrådet.
President. — Ladies and gentlemen, on your behalf as well as on my own I should like to extend a very warm welcome to the members of the Market Committee of the Danish Folketing led by their chairman, Mr Svend Heiselberg, who have just taken their seats in the Official Gallery.
Det må være helt klart.
Report (Doc.
Ærede kolleger fra Danmark! Det er for os altid en stor glæde, når repræsentanter fra parlamenterne i Det europæiske Fællesskabs medlemsstater besøger os her i vort arbejde.
I should like to tell the members of the Danish delegation that we are always very gratified to see representatives from the European Community's Member States present at our debates.
Jeg håber, at Deres ophold vil forløbe positivt, og at De vil få lejlighed til at knytte alle de kontakter.
I hope that your visit will be very successful and that you will have an opportunity to make all the contacts you would like to make.
De ønsker, Altså endnu en gang: hjertelig velkommen til Strasbourg!
Once again then I bid you a very hearty welcome to Strasbourg.
Jeg byder ved denne lejlighed også Revisionsrettens formand, hr. Mart, der ligeledes har taget plads i den officielle loge, hjertelig velkommen.
I should also like to extend a cordial welcome to the President of the Court of Auditors, Mr Mart, who has also taken his seat in the Official Gallery.
Vi glæder os over, at De overværer denne forhandling.
We are very glad, Sir, that you are attending this debate.
Må jeg så blot om selve den debat, der har været ført om Currybetænkningen, sige, at den på mange må der i beskrivelsen af prioriteter og opgaver svarer til de overvejelser, Kommissionen gør sig.
Mrs Scrivener (LDR), rapporteur. — (FR) Mr President, colleagues, the discharge for the 1984 financial year is more than just a discharge of accounts.
Det er vigtigt, at vi focuserer på prioriteringsopgaven.
It is the privileged instrument of an essential parliamentary function, namely political control.
Formanden. — Næste punkt på dagsordenen er for handling under ét om følgende seks betænkninger: til gennemførelse af den politik, de selv har truffet beslutning om, er faktisk denne politiks effektivitet.
President. — The next item is the joint debate on the following six reports :
Det er umuligt at bevæge medlemsstaterne til at ved tage nye indtægter og endnu mindre til at tillade indførelse af et nyt system for egne indtægter og finansiel autonomi, hvis de ikke er overbevist om, at de derved kan forøge deres eget potentiel, selvfølgelig samtidig med Fællesskabets.
After 1984 the Com munity seems, without saying so openly, to have become resigned to being nothing more than a centre of intergovernmental cooperation where all decisions, down to a very low level, are controlled by the national administrations, and where power and resources are in the hands of the governments.
A2-15/86) af Scrivener for bud getkontroludvalget om decharge for gennemførelsen af De europæiske Fællesskabers budget for regnskabsåret 1984.
A 2-15/86) by Mrs Scrivener, on behalf of the Committee on Budgetary Control, on the decision granting a discharge for the implementation of the budget of the European Com munities for the financial year 1984;
A214/86) af Härlin for budget kontroludvalget om udsættelse af decharge til Kommissionen for De europæiske Fællesskaber for forvaltningen af EKSFs regnskab for regn skabsåret 1984.
A 2-14/86) by Mr Härlin, on behalf of the Committee on Budgetary Control, on deferral of the discharge to be granted to the Commission of the European Communities in respect of the ECSC accounts for the financial year 1984;
A2-13/86) af Wettig for budget kontroludvalget om udsættelse af decharge for regnskabsåret 1984 — Sektion I — Europa-Parlamentet. mentet.
A 2-13/86) by Mr Wettig, on behalf of the Committee on Budgetary Control, on the postponement of the discharge for the 1984 finan cial year — Section I — European Parliament;
De løsninger, som medlemsstaterne har valgt for at klare de øjeblikkelige vanskeligheder i forbindelse med brugen af alle de egne indtægter, ender med at ødelægge den finansielle autonomi.
The solutions adopted by the States in order to resolve the immediate problems of the depletion of own resources are leading to the dismantling of financial autonomy.
Det gælder for ordningen med forskud, der skal tilbagebetales, til dækning af underskuddet i regnskabsåret 1984.
It is true of the formula for the repayable advances which were intended to cover the deficit for the 1984 financial year.
Det samme gælder for den af medlemsstaterne valgte me tode til retablering af beregningsgrundlaget for mer værdiafgiften, som i stadig højere grad kommer til at minde om finansielle bidrag.
The same applies to the method adopted by the Member States in order to reestablish the base for the VAT resource, which is drifting more and more towards becoming a financial contribution.
A2-10/86) af Fuillet for budget kontroludvalget om decharge til Kommissionen for den økonomiske forvaltning af den anden, tredje, fjerde og femte europæiske udviklingsfond for regnskabsåret 1984,
A 2-10/86) by Mrs Fuillet, on behalf of the Committee on Budgetary Control, on the discharge to be granted to the Commission in respect of the financial management of the second, third, fourth and fifth European Develop ment Funds for the financial year 1984;
Et andet vigtigt element i Fællesskabets budgetkrise 1984 var uligevægten mellem indbetalingerne til bud gettet og de af de enkelte medlemsstater modtagne ydelser.
Another important element in the 1984 budgetary crisis in the Community was the imbalance between budget payments made and benefits received by each Member State.
Denne strid, der blev kendt under det misvisende begreb »nettobidragyder«, løstes på topmødet i Fontainebleau ved indrømmelse af rabat på indtægterne.
This argument, characterised by the erroneous concept of 'net contributor', was resolved at the Fontainebleau summit by the allocation of refunds on revenue.
Det er indlysende, at man derved ender med i alvorlig grad at forvanske indtægterne fra merværdiafgiften, der i henhold til EØF-traktatens artikel 201 udgør en egen indtægt og derfor skal opkræves ensartet.
It is obvious that this leads to serious dilution of the VAT formula which, under Article 201 of the Treaty establishing the EEC, is an element of own resources and must therefore be levied on a completely uniform basis.
C2-105/85) til forordning om ændring af forordning (EØF) nr. 1468/81 om gensidig bistand mellem med lemsstaternes administrative myndigheder og samarbejde mellem disse og Kommissionen med henblik på at sikre den rette anvendelse af told- og landbrugsbestemmelserne. ne.
The Committee on Budgetary Control would also like to draw attention to the blocking or delaying of appropriations because of poor administrative prac tice, or because the Council is unable to take a legislative decision.
Forvaltningen af strukturfondene, som der netop er talt indgående om, det vil sige EFRU, socialfonden og EUGFL, udviklingssektionen, har bidraget til den ne krises forværring. De politiske mål, der tillagdes fondene, har ikke kunnet nås.
The budgetary management of the structural funds — which was discussed at length — namely the ERDF, the Social Fund, EAGGF Guidance Section, helped to aggravate this crisis.
Målet om fællesskabssolidaritet og økonomisk konvergens kræver mere ef fektive procedurer og større finansielle muligheder.
Community solidarity and economic convergence require more efficient procedures and more extensive financial resources.
De økonomiske indikatorer viser for øvrigt, at for skellen mellem Fællesskabets rige og fattige regioner som bekendt fortsat øges.
Economic indicators also show that the disparity between the rich and the poor regions of the Community is increasing, as we know.
Også strukturpolitikkens mål slog fejl, og det er helt givet, at suppleringsprincippet kun sjældent overholdes, og at fællesskabstilskuddene tværtimod som regel kun bruges som ekstratilskud til rent national politik.
The objective of structural policy has also failed, and it is patently obvious that the principle of additionality is seldom respected and that, on the contrary, Com munity finance is generally a source of supplementary finance for purely national policies.
Regnskabsåret 1984 var et overgangsår.
This situation of budgetary crisis, to which the Com munity has unfortunately become resigned since 1984, is explained to some extent by our institutions' refusal to face the difficulties and the reality.
I 1984 afsluttedes en periode, i hvilken Fællesskabets institutioner fremdeles bestræbte sig på at afslutte indførelsen af et budgetmæssigt og finansielt system, der byggede på begrebet finansiel autonomi.
The depletion of own resources is an eventuality which has been expected since 1978 and it must be acknowledged that the Commission had no hesitation in letting it be known.
Fra 1984 ser det ud til, at Fællesskabet har resigneret, dog uden at indrømme det åbent, idet det nøjes med at virke som centralt organ for et regeringssamarbejde, hvori alle beslutninger helt ned til et meget lavt niveau kontrolleres af de nationale forvaltninger, og hvori myndigheden og ressourcerne ligger i regeringernes hænder.
Nevertheless our institutions operate in such a way that they are only capable of taking decisions when there is a crisis situation, i.e. under the worst conditions.
Regionalfondens og socialfondens mere fællesskabsbetonede aktioner lå for øvrigt på en meget lav gen nemførelsesgrad i 1984.
The level of implementation of more specifically Com munity action by the Regional Fund and the Social Fund in 1984 was very low.
Inden for landbrugssektoren havde Fællesskabet de allerstørste vanskeligheder med at definere konsekvente mål for strukturaktionerne, og det forekommer stadig, at fællesskabsfinansierede foranstaltninger har helt modstridende mål eller virkninger. Endvidere er strukturfondenes administration og budgetmæssige forvaltning både tung, langsom og som regel ineffektiv.
In the agricultural sector the Community experienced very great difficulty in defining coherent objectives for structural action and there are still occasions when the measures which it finances have objectives or effects which are totally contradictory.
Det grundlæggende problem, der følger af medlems staternes afvisning af at bevilge de nødvendige midler
The management of the common agricultural policy is of course a central problem in this budget crisis.
Denne forudseenhed har det hyppigt skortet på.
Scrivener constructive nature of this procedure, which is in fact one of criticism.
Det er for meget at kræve af dem, at de på samme tid skal indebære en finansiel overførsel til fordel for dårligt stillede regio ner og en finansiering af en fælles strukturpolitik.
Above all it would be a rejection of the reality of the division of responsibility between the different Community institutions in the difficulties of implementing the budget.
Det foreslås derfor at adskille disse mål, hvilket vil gøre det muligt at styrke dem.
That is why we wanted to define these responsibilities at the beginning of our report.
Selv om betænkningen om decharge ikke giver den rette baggrund for drøftelse af et så kompliceret spørgsmål, vil det ikke være rigtigt at forbigå det i tavshed, når der forhandles om budgetpolitikken i et år, hvor Fællesskabets finansielle krise har antaget så omfattende dimensioner.
would nevertheless be dishonest if one were to pass over it in silence when analysing the budgetary policy of a year in which the Community financial crisis took on such significance.
Vi betragter de meget store lagerbeholdninger som et udtryk for systemets dårlige funktion.
We consider that the existence of such large stocks is a manifestation, a symptom, of the poor functioning of the system.
Budgetkontroludvalget har overvejet en re vision af reglerne for samarbejdet mellem Kommissionen og de nationale instanser, der står for EUGFL-udbetalingerne.
The Committee on Budgetary Control envisaged a revision of the rules on cooperation between the Commission and the national organizations responsible for making EAGGF pay ments.
Som bekendt har Kommissionen gjort sig overvejelser i samme retning.
We know that the Commission itself held discussions along these lines.
Det er målet at gøre disse nationale instanser interesserede i eller pligtige til at finde, følge og indkassere uretmæssige udbetalinger.
The objective would be to put these national organizations in a situation where they would have an interest, or even an obligation, to detect, take action against and recover irregular pay ments.
Jeg kommer så til nogle særlige problemer i forbindelse med regnskabsåret 1984, og jeg vil nøjes med nogle få eksempler.
I come now to certain problems which are peculiar to 1984, and I shall limit myself to a few examples.
Vi foreslår, at budgetmyndigheden fremover respekterer et rimeligt forhold mellem forpligtelses- og betalingsbevillinger til de enkelte aktioner.
But I should like to say a few words on the responsibilities of the budgetary authority.
Den procedure, man indførte ved fælleserklæringen af 30. juni 1982 for at undgå disse situationer, har ikke virket, og vi anmoder Kommissionen om at foreslå en mere realistisk løsning, der også i højere grad tager hensyn til hver enkelt institutions rolle.
It is far more — and other people have said it besides me — a matter of visual piloting, of inadequate, delayed, responses to crisis situations, and popularity-seeking measures, be it in the direction of narrow, and often unjustified restraint, or the reverse, of totally unrealistic commitments.
Der var lidt begynder van skeligheder, især i forbindelse med den tunge forretningsgang ved personaleansættelser og udbetalinger, men også med den nye og i øvrigt yderst interessante metode, der i dette tilfælde er valgt for samarbejdet mellem virksomhederne, universiteterne og forskningsinstitutterne, der koordineres af Kommissionen.
It experienced some difficulties in the initial phase, due chiefly to the cumbersome nature of the procedures. Transfer and recruitment procedures and the novelty of the formula used for this project, which was nevertheless a very interesting one, of cooperation between undertakings, universities and research institutes under the coordination of the European Commission.
Disse begyndervanskeligheder er dog nu overvundet.
But the initial difficulties were overcome.
De gennemførte evalueringer viser, at Esprit er på vej til at nå sine mål.
Assessment of the project has shown that Esprit is achieving its objectives.
Det er blevet en succes, hvilket ganske særligt fortjener omtale i en betænkning om decharge.
The discharge report provides an excellent opportunity for pointing out this success.
Den budgetmæssige krise, som Fællesskabet desværre har affundet sig med lige siden 1984, forklares på en måde af institutionernes afvisning af at ville se van skelighederne og realiteterne i øjenene.
I should also, at the end of this intervention, like to express, in terms which are as reserved as possible, my disappointment over the Council's attitude during this discharge procedure.
Opbrugningen af de egne indtægter er en situation, der har har været til at forudse lige siden 1978, og man må prise sig lykkelig over, at Kommissionen ikke er veget tilbage for at bekendtgøre det.
We know that the Council experiences great difficulties in exercising its legislative and budgetary responsibilities, with deplorable consequences for the implementation of the budget.
Imidlertid arbejder institutionerne på en sådan måde, at de kun kan træffe beslutninger i en krisesituation, hvilket vil sige under de dårligst tænkelige omstændigheder.
But we were very sorry to find that it was wholly incapable of playing its part in the discharge procedure. Its operational structure forces it to seek consensus on every problem at the lowest possible level, and, in fact, to avoid questions of substance.
For det andet udviklingsbistanden.
Secondly, development aid.
Dens resultater har generelt været positive, hvilket er et aktiv for Kommissionens forvaltning af den.
Overall this aid has had a positive outcome which is to the credit of Commission management.
Den tunge forretningsgang bør dog påpeges — men den er generel og et alvorligt problem for Kommissionen — for den har medført, at Kommissionen ikke har kunnet ud nytte betalingsbevillingerne fuldt ud, og hertil kom mer de evindelige vanskeligheder i forbindelse med fødevarehjælpens transport og udlevering.
It must be pointed out however that the procedures are cumbersome — but they are every where, and they pose a real problem for the Commission — and mean that the Commission is incapable of absorbing all the payment appropriations entered, and the perpetual problems encountered in the transport and supply of food aid.
Derfor foreslår vi, at Parlamentet på grundlag af op lysninger fra Kommissionen gør sig overvejelser til imødegåelse af vanskeligheder som følge af manglen de balance på budgettet.
That is why, Mr President, having found that the Commission is in favour of, I hope, greater cooperation with Parliament, and taking note of its willingness to seek a Community solution to the budget crisis, in which we refuse to become involved, and also having noted its impotence in the face of the rigidity, the sclerosis, of certain structures and the inconsistency of the budgetary authority, I nevertheless recommend, because there is no better way of doing things, on behalf of the Committee on Budgetary Control, that Parliament grant the Commission discharge for the 1984 financial year.
