For det tredje kraftigt at forøge antallet af Kommissionens intermediære banker med det formål, at de små og mellemstore virksomheder, som jeg gentager, at dette nye fællesskabsinstrument er rettet imod, lettere gennem disse netværk afbanker kan få adgang til fra deres eget hjemsted at opnå og forvalte disse lån.
How, under these conditions, can the fundamental priority programmes, like Esprit II, RACE, Brite and the others be brought to fruition, and without delays?
Formanden. — Næste punkt på dagsordenen er anden del af spørgetiden (dok. B2-515/86).
By acting in this way, the Council is going to leave us with a mangled research policy, and cut-price pro grammes.
Vi begynder med spørgsmål til Kommissionen.
Com munity spending on research, in effect, means spend ing much less on a national level.
Spørgsmål nr. 45 af MacSharry (H-502/85):
Madam President, colleagues, we cannot reach the ends without having the means.
Om: Det nye fællesskabsinstrument
It is therefore up to the Council to tell us what it wants.
Det nye instrument har også til hensigt at acceptere muligheden af, at en del af lånet af den intermediære bank konverteres til et kapitaltilskud til de små og mellemstore virksomheder med det formål at for mindske deres finansielle byrder i starten.
It is, unfortunately, quite clear that if the Council persists in halving the budgetary resources of the Community pro grammes, it is blighting the whole research policy.
Matutes, medlem af Kommissionen. — (ES) Det nye fællesskabsinstrument 4 afhænger for øjeblikket ude lukkende af godkendelse fra Rådet af økonomi- og
The Council arrived with ready-made decisions, not with points for discussion.
Hindley (S). — (EN) Kommissæren talte om nødvendigheden af fleksibilitet.
Mr F (DR). — (IT) Mr President, in his speech Mr Poniatowski rightly said that Eureka is a 'downstream' research programme, whereas Community research policy in our budget must be 'upstream' research.
Erkender Kommissionen, at i nogle områder i Det forenede Kongerige er den private sektor uvillig til at handle som igangsætter og motiverende for den lokale økonomi, og er Kommissionen i bekræftende fald villig til at holde op med at være fjendtlig over for lokale myndigheder, der udvider deres rolle som igangsættere af den lokale økonomi? mi?
Eureka is competitive research, whereas our research must be above all pre-competitive, as was the case with Esprit I and must be the case with Esprit II.
Til det formål vil det bedste være, at NIC 4 forbliver Kommissionens instrument, hvis finansielle forvaltning naturligvis bør ligge hos Den Europæiske Investeringsbank, men det er ønskeligt, at fastsættelsen af kriterierne til opnåelse af fleksibilitet og gennemsigtighed, som jeg har omtalt, stadig kan ligge hos Kommissionen, og at NIC 4 bli ver et effektivt instrument, ligesom NIC 1, 2 og 3 hidtil har været.
In this sense it is to be feared that the European States will allocate too much money to their marriage bureau of inter-company interests that we call Eureka and, with this as an excuse, the various ministries that meet within the Council will reduce the Community's expenditure on research.
MacSharry (RDE). — (EN) Jeg takker oprigtigt kom missæren for hans omfattende besvarelse.
There is no point being competitive in three years' time if others already are today.
Matutes. — (ES) Da jeg henviste til fleksibilitet, hen viste jeg selvfølgelig udelukkende til nødvendigheden af, at disse lån bliver mest muligt fleksible — und skyld redundansen — så hensigtsmæssig som muligt i forhold til de forskellige virksomheders forskellige behov.
I think that, as Parliament, we must support this, because it is the minimum that can be acceptable compared with farming expenditure that covers 70% of our budget and —- as Mr Poniatowski has rightly said — the research directed by our Community is carried out in the joint research centres.
Jeg glæder mig også meget over den nye fleksible ord ning, han skitserede i relation til det nye instrument, og vi håber, det vil få nogen virkning på den meget alvorlige arbejdsløshed, der eksisterer nu.
But competitiveness is not a value in itself; it depends partly on what value we attach to goods, for as we know goods have not only a price but a value too.
Bersani (PPE). — (IT) Jeg vil gerne spørge Kommissionen, om det stadig vil være EIB, der administrerer den nye, eventuelt reformerede fond?
I think it quite possible that our competitiveness might be assured not only by the skilled application of tech nology but also by its environmentally beneficial and socially tolerable use.
Det spørgsmål, som det ærede medlem rejser om, hvorvidt de offentlige myndigheder skal intervenere i større udstrækning, er forskelligt fra land til land.
I am no prophet, but I predict that in future the criterion which sells goods will be precisely the criterion of environmental benefit, and I should be very happy if one day the mark 'Made in Europe' means 'this is an environmentally beneficial product because it comes from Europe.'
Formanden. — Da spørgeren ikke er til stede, vil spørgsmål nr. 46 blive besvaret skriftligt (')·
It would also get many people in our Member States on our side and scotch the idea that this Community does nothing but administer itself.
Spørgsmål nr. 47 af Raftery (H-661/85):
We must inject new blood into this executive class of scientists that is becoming too long in the tooth.
Matutes. — (ES) Som svar på hr. MacSharrys spørgsmål tror jeg faktisk, at den tvivl, som nogle re præsentanter fra to medlemsstater stadig har om, hvorvidt NIC 4 skal fortsætte, kan løses ved det første uformelle Økofin-møde, der finder sted i Skotland omkring den 21. september.
And I, personally, would propose that this be situated in Spain — in view of the recent accession of Spain to the European Common Market — a country that needs to bring its industry into line with other European industries, to make it competitive vis-à-vis American and Japanese industry, and to cooperate with the other European States in facing the great research challenge.
Jeg kan naturligvis ikke i dag præcis redegøre for dis se forslags indhold, men jeg kan dog sige, at vort handlingsprogram sandsynligvis vil indeholde en række elementer, der er i overensstemmelse med de skovbrugsmæssige mål i den af det ærede medlem nævnte såkaldte Western Package.
We have already talked a lot in this House about SDL I won't bore you with repetitions, but I would like to say once again that the two secret agreements between the German and US Governments and the UK and US Governments, which are available for perusal — the German one at least — are not exactly friendly to the Community in the view of our Group.
Man må i den for bindelse ikke glemme, at det ved dette Western Pac-
They create privileged relationships between a few countries and the USA and make our job in the Community harder than

Mr Pattie says 'we want more effective research.'
Andriessen en af hovedårsagerne til, at det ikke har været en succes, vil De så overveje i Deres nye forslag at indføre en eller anden ordning, så landmændene kan få et årligt tilskud enten for at leje deres jord ud eller for at passe skovene, vejene osv.?
Mr Pattie, President-in-Office of the Council. — Madam President, I think it is a great help in these early days of our Presidency to have the benefit of listening to a debate of this sort and I very much appreciate the contributions that have been made.
Det udøvende organ, State Forest Service, forsøger at nå frem til en bredere udnyttelse af de midler, som EUGFL har stillet til rådighed til dette formål.
Mr Mallet in his contribution asked a most interesting question: 'If it has not been possible to have a genuine internal market with 12 nations, how can we hope to achieve it in Eureka with 19 nations?'
Jeg forventer, at programmet i den resterende løbetid sandsynligvis vil have større succes and hidtil.
He then supplied the answer by saying that what we needed was common standards and that if we could get common standards we would obviously go a long way towards the kind of technological excellence in the internal market that we want to see.
Andriessen. — (NL) Jeg er i færd med at afslutte samrådet om vort vejledningsnotat, og jeg kan derfor love, at vi på kort sigt vil komme med et program og konkrete forslag.
In view of the doubts and reluctance demonstrated by some Ministers responsible for research in that Coun cil, refusing the funds required to launch the initiatives set out in the Commission's draft framework pro gramme, particularly those referring to the Esprit, RACE and Brite programmes, we naturally take the declarations of intent less seriously, to say the least.
Med hensyn til den manglende succes for the Western Package er jeg enig med det ære de medlem i, at mangelen på finansiel imødekom menhed, på hvilken måde det end måtte være, er en af årsagerne til, at landbrugerne ser sig lidet tilskyndet til at omlægge deres produktion.
It is not in fact by starting from concepts such as those of economic and social cohesion or by setting purely shortterm priorities such as nuclear safety — though I do not wish to cast any doubt upon the importance of these questions — that we shall counter the increasing loss of competitivity in European industry seen over the past ten years.
Derfor har vi i vore sociostrukturelle forslag, der nu er til behandling, medtaget muligheden for finansiel imødekommenhed, og vi håber, at der på denne måde kan opnås en større entusiasme hos landbrugerne til også at over veje denne form for produkter.
This is the situation facing the Community, which must be solved soon. This is the challenge which the Commission intends to meet not only within the Com munity sphere but also by means of the participation of other countries as in our Eureka and COST pro grammes.
Desuden konstaterer jeg, at man i Vestirland i stigende grad bliver sig skovbrugets betydning bevidst.
But he then went on to ask whether we had solved what he described as the financial problem.
Men jeg går endnu ikke så langt som til at sige, at denne slags integrerede aktioner nødvendigvis er den bedste metode til gennemførelse af skovbrugsprogrammer på regionalt plan.
It may not be widely enough appreciated that the funding of Eureka is essentially dependent upon the companies themselves having decided that they want to form the collaborative programmes and that they have seen a project which they wish to prosecute.
Jeg kunne forestille mig, at aktioner, der udelukkende vedrører skovbrug, bør prioriteres.
It is a rather different way of approaching collaboration from that actually emanating from the European Community.
I de pågældende regioner i disse lande har skovbrugsmyndighedernes udøvende in stanser og også private firmaer været direkte impliceret i gennemførelse af en specifik lokal skovbrugsplan.
Its advantage is this: If there is, say, 50% funding available in the first year for a programme which is relatively near the market place, and that percentage is going to diminish to 40% in the second year, and 30% in the third year, then the company concerned is forced to consider very care fully whether it is worth its while continuing with that programme.
Mellem Kommissionen og disse udøvende in stanser er der direkte kontakter ved udarbejdelsen af disse regionale programmer.
Obviously it is going to be asked to increase the percentage of its own funding.
Hutton (ED). — (EN) Er kommissæren klar over, at forbrugerne af tømmer ofte er ude for, at hurtigtvoksende lokalt tømmer er af ringere kvalitet end importeret tømmer?
This will be by means of a clear definition of objectives for the 1987-91 framework programme and by allocation of the required funds with no subterfuges or hesitations. tations.
Vil han love forsamlingen, at han i de drøftelser, der for øjeblikket foregår om Fællesskabets skovbrugsaktion, vil huske på behovet for, at vi pro ducerer tømmer af den rette kvalitet til erstatning for import, og nødvendigheden af at forbedre kvaliteten af det tømmer, der produceres i Fællesskabet?
Parliament has already stated clearly that it supports the Commission's framework programme and it is important for us to reiterate that.
Jeg er enig med det ærede medlem i, at der i Fælles skabet på baggrund af den meget lave selvforsyningsgrad for træ og træprodukter er tale om en gunstig situation med hensyn til i videre udstrækning at fore tage skovbeplantning.
Madam President, I am extremely grateful for this opportunity to be here today and I do not wish to detain the House further.
Jeg tror imidlertid, at vi ved opstillingen af sådanne udvidelsesprogrammer også må se på, hvilke træprodukter og hvilken træimport der nu bedst kan erstattes af en selvstændig EF-pro-duktion.
I would just conclude by welcoming the remarks that Mr Poniatowski made in his personal welcome to me, and say that our aim in our Presidency is to set targets in the world of research, to set criteria very like those Mr Adam in his speech said we must have.
Der må i den forbindelse også tænkes på en vis spredning over regionerne, således at den træforarbejdende industri kan regne med en vis kontinuerlig forsyning.
We must concentrate on evaluation and above all we must concentrate on quality.
Vi må naturligvis ligeledes se på, hvad vi endvidere vil gøre med vor landbrugsproduktion.
There is no shortage of resources presently allocated to research and development.
Hvordan fore stiller De Dem så, at indførslerne kan trænges tilbage gennem en udvidelse af træproduktionen, således at der sikres en indtægt, der gør dette skovbrug muligt? ligt?
We shall now proceed as announced to the vote on the request for an early vote on three motions for resolutions. tions.
Jeg noterer også, at De er klar over, at skovbrugsprogrammet i the Western Package ikke havde stor succes hos private plantører, og det har De selvfølgelig ret i.
This is the aim of the motion for a resolution which the Group of the European Alliance for Renewal and Democracy has put forward to close the present debate.
For det andet siger man altid, at skovbruget også tjener miljøbeskyttelsen.
Voting on the motions for resolutions will take place tomorrow at 6 p.m.
Andriessen. — (NL) Vi taler ikke her om import af kornsubstitutter, men om skovbrug.
President. — The next item is the second part of Question Time (Doc. Β 2-515/86).
Er det sandsynligt, at de penge, som det ser ud til, at vi behøver, kan være til rådighed næste år, eller hvad er det for en tidsplan, Kommissionen tænker sig i relation til skovbrug?
We shall deal with questions to the Commission.
De siger: når der nu er så få penge til at fremme genplantning, hvorledes kan man så tænke på at fremme en udvidelse af skovbruget?
away with exchange guarantees by having loans issued in the respective national currencies.
Jeg siger ikke, at vi dermed er ved afslutningen af en politik. Jeg har eftertrykkeligt bebudet en mere omfattende skov brugspolitik, men selv set ud fra landbrugspolitikker, hvor De så gerne forsøger at behandle skovbruget, forsøger vi der at yde et bidrag inden for de begrænsede midler, som vi har til rådighed.
And thirdly, there will be a consi­derable increase in the number of banks acting for the Commission, thereby making it simpler for small and mediumsized businesses — at which, as I say, this New Community Instrument is targeted — to nego­tiate and obtain loans, through the expanded network of banks, from the comfort of their own office.
Det andet punkt falder efter min opfattelse også uden for denne debat.
Question No 45, by Mr MacSharry (H-502/85):
Andriessen. — (NL) Jeg mindes ikke at være frem kommet med den uforsigtige udtalelse, som det ærede medlem netop fremførte. Jeg taler altså ikke på Rå dets vegne. Jeg taler ofte til Rådet.
What is the present position in relation to the pro­posed renewal of the New Community Instrument for the purpose of promoting investment within the Community, against the backdrop of mass unemployment, especially in the area of small and mediumsized businesses?
Jeg har allerede sagt — og jeg skal sikkert gentage nu, at vi taler om de sociostrukturelle forslag — at såfremt det viser sig, at vore forslag slår an og får succes, og at der som følge heraf ikke er tilstrækkelige midler til rådighed — penge, som vi måske kunne spare ved at se kritisk på vores markedsordninger — så er jeg rede til at indlede en drøftelse i Rådet om en udvidelse af pengemidlerne til landbrugspolitikkens sociostrukturelle problematik.
Within the framework of these improved facilities, the Commission proposes, in the context of this New Community Instrument, to broaden the base of the guarantee principle to cover not only immovable pro­perty, that is to say buildings, plant and machinery, but also movable property, and in particular invest­ment in research and new technology, in order to ena­ble small and mediumsized businesses to compete for public contracts on more equal terms.
Dury (S). — (FR) Hr. kommissær, jeg tror ikke, at det vil være at fjerne sig fra emnet at nævne miljøproblemet.
Mr Matutes, Member of the Commission. — (ES) The New Community Instrument 4 is now merely awaiting ratification by the Council of Finance Ministers.
Jeg vil således stille et tillægsspørgsmål om syreregnen, én af årsagerne til ødelæggelsen af vore skove.
Apparently there is a clear majority there in favour of immediate implementation of this New Community Instrument.
Hvilken rolle spiller miljøproblemer ved fast sættelsen af anden politik, og hvilke konsultationer har der været tale om i den henseende?
There remain, however, some residual doubts in the minds of the representatives of some Member States, who are wondering whether it might not be better to dispense with NCI 4 and instead direct these efforts through the European Investment Bank.
Andriessen. — (NL) Jeg skal meddele det ærede med lem, at der for øjeblikket er en drøftelse i Rådet og et konkret forslag fra Kommissionen om at træffe EF-foranstaltninger til beskyttelse af skovene mod sur nedbør og mod brand.
The Commission believes that with these improve­ments NCI 4 can and should constitute an effective means of encouraging the setting up and development of small and mediumsized enterprises and, through them, the creation of new jobs.
Begge forslag blev drøftet i enkeltheder under Rådets sidste samling i juni, og der er voksende enighed i Rådet om de foranstaltninger, der kan træffes.
The Commission also believes, however, that these measures can only suc­ceed in their purpose so long as we adopt this kind of pragmatic and flexible approach and avoiding, as I said before, any unnecessary bureaucracy.
Min anden bemærkning er, at ikke enhver EF-skov-brugspolitik direkte behøver at koste EF mange pen ge.
Hitherto there have been three problems with financ­ing small and mediumsized enterprises in the Com­munity.
Og så går jeg lige lidt uden for landbrug og substitution af landbrugsprodukter og ser på skovbruget som sådant.
Firstly there has been the problem of the man­datory security on loans, generally in the form of a government guarantee, which makes loans difficult to obtain.
Vi ville have vundet ret meget, hvis vi på fællesskabsplan i højere grad kunne tilvejebringe indsigt, udveksling og information, pålidelige statistikker, bedre beskyttelse og lignende.
Secondly there is the risk associated with fluc­tuating exchange rates, given that these loans are usually based on a basket of currencies.
Der er her ikke nødvendigt med hundrede millioner ECU.
And thirdly, there is the excessive bureaucracy involved in negotiat­ing and obtaining these loans.
Her er det kun nødvendigt med Rådets politiske vilje til at gå et skridt videre i retning af en fælles skovbrugspolitik.
Mr MacSharry (RDE). — I sincerely thank the Com­missioner for his comprehensive reply.
De ved alle i Parlamentet, at der stadig mangler noget herved for øjeblikket, og at vi følgelig er tvunget til skridt for skridt med visse foranstaltninger at bygge videre på tilvejebringelsen af den fælles skovbrugspolitik.
I hope he has the agreement of the Council in the very near future and perhaps he could tell us exactly when that agree­ment might be forthcoming.
Men som sagt behøver det ikke altid at koste mange penge. Hvis det koster penge, er der i et vist omfang penge, og vi må eventuelt forsøge at finde penge.
I sincerely welcome also the new flexible arrangements he has outlined in relation to the new instrument and we hope they will have some impact on the very ser­ious unemployment that now exists.
Men det gælder ikke for 1986 eller 1987; det gælder for en senere periode, hvor EFs budgetsituation måske er noget gunstigere, end det for øjeblikket er tilfældet.
Bearing these points in mind, the Commission's posi­tion on the New Community Instrument 4 is as fol­lows: we are talking about loans totalling 1 500 million ECU aimed exclusively at helping small and mediumsized businesses; and so, to answer Mr MacSharry's highly pertinent question, the programme is indeed geared to be an effective way of creating new jobs.
Der er gode udsigter til, at det er muligt på kort sigt at træffe konkrete foranstaltninger på dette punkt, og det er følgelig et yderligere skridt.
Mr Bersani (PPE). — (IT) I should like to ask the Commission whether this new fund, possibly in a revised form, will continue to be managed by the EIB.
Verbeek (ARC). — (NL) Hr. kommissær, man siger så let : skovbrug er dog glimrende for miljøet.
President. — As the author is not present, Question No 46 will be answered in writing.1
Jeg har altid på fornemmelsen, at der ligger propaganda bag, for når jeg ser, hvor det i virkeligheden drejer sig om skovbrugsplaner, så er det ofte i de regioner og blandt den slags landmænd, der netop ikke er miljøforurenerne. Er det ikke således, at skovbrug netop finder sted i allerede naturrige områder, og at der ikke kom mer skovbrug i områder med monokultur, dvs. de store bedrifter, hvor den store forurening er?
Question No 47, by Mr Raftery (H-661/85): entertained by some representatives of two of the Member States over the desirability of continuing with NCI 4 can be resolved on the occasion of the first informal Ecofin, due to take place in Scotland on about 21 September.
Dette program er baseret på overvejelser og analyser foretaget af det ekspertudvalg, der var resultatet af den beslutning, som blev truffet af Det euro pæiske Råd i Milano.
Considering that the Community is only 50% self-sufficient in timber, will the Commission, in anticipation of proposals for a genuine Common Forestry Policy, propose the immediate extension of the Western Package Scheme to other suitable areas of the Community?
Dette ekspertudvalg har holdt møde i Paris, Bruxelles og senest i Rom, og der har det udarbejdet en hel række retningslinjer, som baserer gennemførelsen af dette program på forebyggelse, oplysning, på et bestemt aspekt af kampen mod to baksrygning — som skal nuanceres, da tobakken er den vigtigste kræftfremkalder — og også på en række konkrete foranstaltninger på det område, som De omtaler, bryst- og livmoderkræft.
Moving on to the question put to me by Mr Bersani, concerning the desirability of the European Invest ment Bank continuing to manage the fund, I would refer him in the first place to what I said a few moments ago and offer the opinion that the main problem lies in the fact that at the present time the Council of Ministers — or two members of it, to be precise — would like not only for the European Investment Bank to continue to manage and administer the fund, as it has done hitherto — something that the Commission obviously accepts — but also for NCI 4 purely and simply to disappear and for the facilities offered to small and mediumsized businesses to be the direct responsibility of the European Invest ment Bank.
Andriessen. — (NL) Jeg håber ikke, at jeg gør mig skyldig i propaganda i Parlamentet.
Mr Andriessen, Vice-President of the Commission. — (NL) As we discussed at length during the May partsession a consultation procedure is currently under way on the Commission's future forestry policy.
