Formanden. — Jeg minder om, at Parlamentet i sit møde den 11. februar efter at have godkendt det ændrede forslag til direktiv om tilnærmelse af medlemsstaternes ved lov eller administrativt fastsatte bestemmelser om forbrugerkredit — det forslag der var genstand for Prout-betænkningen — på forslag fra ordføreren vedtog at udsætte afstemningen om forslaget til beslutning, indtil Kommissionen havde afgivet udtalelse om de ændringer, Parlamentet havde foretaget af direktivet.
President. — I would remind the House that in its sitting of 11 February, having adopted the amended proposal for a directive on the harmonization of the laws, regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States on consumer credit, the directive which was the subject of the Prout report, Parliament decided, on a proposal from the rapporteur, to hold over the vote on the motion for a resolution until such time as the Commission would have delivered its opinion on the amendments made by Parliament to this directive.
Formanden. — Næste punkt på dagsordenen er meddelelse fra Kommissionen for De europæiske Fællesskaber om dens reaktion på Europa-Parlamentets udtalelser og forslag. (')
Mr Glinne (S). — (FR) Mr President, with regard to urgent aid granted in cases of disaster, the text received from the Commission is very laconic : 'Nothing to report'.
Glinne (S). — (FR) Hr. formand, hvad angår katastrofehjælp inden for Fællesskabet, er den tekst, vi har modtaget fra Kommissionen, yderst lakonisk: »Ingen.« Men adskillige lande og regioner i Fælles skabet er blevet ramt af meget alvorlige oversvømmelser, ikke bare dengang vi drøftede det, dvs. i mødeperioderne i april og maj, men også siden.
Now, several countries and regions in the Community have been hit by very serious flooding, not only on the occasions that we have discussed — that is to say, at the time of the April and May part-sessions — but again subsequently.
Jeg vil derfor bede om, at Kommissionen fortæller os noget mere om det.
I should therefore like the Commission to tell us something more about this.
Narjes, medlem af Kommissionen. — (DE) Hr. formand, det glæder mig at kunne meddele Parlamentet, at Kommissionen kan acceptere alle Parlamentets ændringsforslag med en eneste undtagelse. Denne undtagelse angår den juridiske form, under hvilken den i artikel 1, stk. 2 d, forudsete regulering af beregningen af den effektive årlige rente kan finde sted.
Mr Narjes, Member of the Commission. — (DE) Mr President, I have pleasure in informing the House that the Commission has accepted all Parliament's amend ments with one exception, and that relates to the legal form of the method of calculating the annual interest rate laid down in Article 1, paragraph 2 (d).
I mellemtiden har juristerne fundet ud af, at i modsætning til, hvad der står i ændrings forslag nr. 2, der refererer til dette sted, kan en kommissionsafgørelse som juridisk form ikke komme i betragtning; der kræves i stedet et direktiv.
We hadn't settled this question because it was going to be reviewed by legal experts who have now established that, contrary to the opinion on which Amendment No 2 is based, a Commission decision is out of the question, and that a directive would be legally in order.
Narjes, medlem af Kommissionen. — (DE) Hr. formand, hvis jeg fortolker situationen korrekt, tager den meddelelse, som hr. Glinne beklager sig over, kun sigte på tal og ikke på fakta, og jeg er meget villig til at foranledige vedkommende kolleger til at undersøge, hvordan de forskellige faktiske forhold, der er indtrådt for nylig, ser ud.
Mr Narjes, Member of the Commission. — Mr President, if my interpretation is correct, the statement to which my colleague Mr Glinne objects relates only to decisions on amounts and not to the circumstances. I am perfectly willing to ask the people concerned to review the way in which these circumstances have come about.
Begrundelsen er, at forslaget om forbrugerkredit er et forslag om harmonisering af medlemsstaternes retsog forvaltningsforskrifter, der skal baseres på artikel 100.
Their explanation is that the proposal on consumer credit is designed to harmonize Member States' legal and administrative provisions, and as such has to be based on Article 100.
Det juridiske instrument, der er forudset i denne artikel, er direktivet, kun direktivet og intet andet end direktivet.
The only legal instrument provided for by this article is the directive ; anything else is out of the question.
Såfremt kompetencen for beregningen af den årlige rente faktisk skulle gives til Kommissionen så kan dette, siger juristerne, kun ske inden for de rammer, retsgrundlaget i artikel 100 giver.
If the powers for calculating the annual rate of interest are really to be assigned to the Commission, our legal services say, this can only be done on the basis of Article 100.
Det betyder, at problematikken om beregningen af den årlige rente også skal klares ved et direktiv.
In other words, the annual interest calculation method also has to be established by a directive.
Fernandez (COM). — (FR) Hr. formand, jeg sendte den 24. maj et brev til Kommissionen om oversvømmelserne i Bourgogne for at bede om nødhjælp. På sin side vedtog Europa-Parlamentet en beslutning om sagen i mødeperioden i maj.
Mr Fernandez (COM). — (FR) Mr President, on 24 May I sent a letter to the Commission regarding the flooding in the Burgundy region and requesting urgent aid.
Dette spørgsmål er nu afklaret efter vor juridiske tjenestes udtalelse.
The European Parliament also adopted a resolution on this subject during the May partsession.
Formanden. — Da det stadig regner, tror jeg det er bedre at afvente Kommissionens skriftlige svar om denne sag.
Since then, the situation has become even worse, especially for the farmers.

See Annex II.
problem ligger til grund for alle de direktiver, der hidtil er godkendt af Europa-Parlamentet, samt for de lovbestemmelser der anvendes i alle staterne.
I wrote to the committee chairman, Mrs Veil and Mr Prout on May 30 saying that the Commission did not yet wish to commit itself regarding the legal form of the method of calculating the annual interest rate.
Dette ville være den eneste begrænsning, som vi — det understreger jeg endnu en gang — måtte foretage af juridiske grunde.
Let me emphasize that we are in complete agreement concerning the desira­bility of settling this matter.
Prout (ED), ordfører. — (EN) Hr. formand, jeg er bange for, at både kommissær Narjes og jeg selv er blevet bragt i en umulig situation.
Mr Ceravolo (COM), rapporteur. — (IT) Mr Presi­dent, this proposal, on which I am reporting to the Assembly on behalf of the Committee on the Environ­ment, Public Health and Consumer Protection, may be considered exemplary.
Da vi diskuterede disse ændringsforslag med Kommissionen i retsudvalget i sidste måned, var Kommissionen af den opfattelse, at en kommissionsafgørelse i henhold til direktivet juridisk ville være i orden.
In fact, both Parliament and the Council are called upon to recognise a problem concerning health and the protection of the environ­ment, as having precedence over other special consid­erations.
Efter min opfattelse vil erstatningen en rådsbeslutning med et direktiv i væsentligt omfang reducere dette direktivs harmoniseringsvirkning og vil altså gå imod den holdning, der var udtrykt så kraftigt af Parlamentet, da vi stemte om ændringsforslagene.
Article 6, paragraph 3, would have to contain a clause to this effect, such as : 'The annual rate of interest and the annual rate of charges referred to in the previous paragraph shall be established in conformity with the method laid down on the basis of article...'.
Dog indrømmer den, at blyindholdet i udstødningsgassen for 30 % vedkommende medvirker til dannelsen af blykoncentration i blodet; om de resterende 70 % tales der ikke.
In regard to this problem there is recognition first and foremost that a state of danger exists to public health.
Vi ved imidlertid, at der ikke er fore taget tilstrækkelige undersøgelser, fordi det bly, der udstødes, også gennem indtagelsen af føde- og drik kevarer kan bidrage til dannelsen af blykoncentration for de øvrige 70 % vedkommende.
I do not think there are any doubts about this, and this fact underlies all the directives that have so far been approved by the European Parliament, as well as the legislative measures that have been adopted by all Member States.
Sieglerschmidt (S). — (DE) Hr. formand, jeg vil gerne gå ind for dette forslag. Jeg vil imidlertid gerne knytte en bemærkning til denne positive indstilling til tilbagevisning til udvalget.
Mr Prout (ED), rapporteur. ■— Mr President, I am afraid that both Commissioner Narjes and myself have been put in an impossible position.
Jeg beklager det noget, hr. kommissær, at Kommissionen ikke har fået sine skarpe juridiske indfald i løbet af de meget langvarige diskussioner, der har været ført næsten i årevis, men først nu efter at sagen er behandlet her i Parlamentet.
At the time we discussed these amendments with the Commission in the Legal Affairs Committee last month, the Commission was of the opinion that a Commission decision under the Directive would be legally in order.
Vi kan dog sige, at den medicinske verdens vurdering nu overalt er præget af dyb bekymring.
Both of us have learnt this morning that the Commis­sion legal services have now changed their mind.
(Anmodningen om tilbagevisning blev imødekommet)
Every time an effort has been made by law to reduce the lead in petrol there has been this awareness of the very harmful effects of lead in the blood.
Det bør bemærkes, at der i den omtalte undersøgelse i Ispra tales om gennemsnit.
In the United States, also, and in Japan, where there is a decided move towards lead­free petrol, they are aware of the health risk that lead presents.
Men vi er ansvarlige politikere. Derfor må vi bekymre os om borgernes sundhed og ikke om gennemsnit.
Some people may say that in Japan and the United States the reasons are of a technical nature, but it is still true that, indi­rectly, the point from which it all began is to do with health.
Det er nødvendigt at lokalisere de høje niveauer for blyindhold og søge at beskytte befolkningerne.
The technical considerations may spring from a concern to avoid the damage caused to petrol filters by the lead in the petrol ; but the filters were fitted for the very reason that atmospheric pollution, in some Japanese and American cities, had already reached intolerable levels, so that, in the end, these 'technical' reasons still owe their origin to a concern for public health.
1-279/83) af Ceravolo for udvalget om miljø- og sundhedsanliggender og forbrugerbeskyttelse om blyindholdet i benzin.
It is therefore with great regret, Mr President, that I must once again ask you — this time under Rule 36 (2) — to remit the matter to the Legal Affairs Committee where we would wish to debate with the Commission legal services their interpretation of Article 100.
Vi må ikke tillade, at et produkt, der er »tvivlsomt« for borgernes sundhed, forbliver i omløb, indtil dets skadelige virkninger antager en alarmerende karakter.
At all events it recognises that the lead content of motor vehicle exhaust gases accounts for 30 % of the lead in the blood : about the remaining 70 %, nothing is said.
Vi må sørge for, at kun produkter, der anses for at være uskadelige, kommer — og forbliver — i omløb.
We know, however, that sufficient research was not carried out, since the lead falling in rain could, through the intake of food and drink, also account for the remaining 70 % of the blood lead level.
Både Parlamentet og Rådet opfordres til at erkende et sundheds- og miljøbeskyttelsesproblem som noget, der bør prioriteres fremfor andre særlige synspunkter.
I agree to the report's being referred back but expect the Legal Affairs Committee and the Commission to put a prop­osal before Parliament in the near future so that we can vote on it at last, this issue being an important one for consumers.
Men når nu andre verdensomspændende faktorer såsom energikrisen har tilskyndet os til at finde hidtil ukendte forbrugsbesparende metoder, hvorfor skulle vi så ikke fremskynde den teknologiske fornyelse også ud fra sundhedsmæssige synspunkter?
It should be remembered that when reference is made, in the findings of the Ispra investigation, to a level of 30 %, this is an average figure.
Jeg tror, at det er en opgave netop for vor europæiske civilisation.
Now we are responsible politicians, and as such we must be concerned with public health and not with averages.
Med et passende incitament kan videnskaben og teknikken inden for en rimelig tid hjælpe os med at løse dette problem.
It is necessary to pinpoint the areas of high lead precipitation and to endeavour to defend the population.
Vi har altså midlerne til definitivt at fjerne ét element — jeg vil ikke sige dem alle — som er skadeligt for miljøet og for borgernes sundhed.
We must also see to it that the directive on alcoholic additives and oxygenates is issued without delay, since it can be a help on the technological side to the fuel manufacturing industry and the car industry, to enable them to reach and maintain a standard.
Desuden risikerer Fællesskabet at sakke agterud i konkurrencen med japanerne og amerika nerne, som er direkte konkurrenter i automobilsektoren, som følge af det forhold at biler, der drives ved blyfri benzin, må betragtes som »ikke forurenende«.
You know that one of the strategic criteria of environmental policy is precisely that where there is doubt, the cause of the harm should be eliminated.
Derved får den japanske og amerikanske bil en konkurrencefordel fremfor fællesskabsbilen, som »forurener«.
We must not allow a 'doubtful' product — doubtful, that is, where public health is concerned — to remain in circulation until the harm it causes cries out for attention.
Det kan heller ikke udelukkes, at forurenende biler før eller senere bliver forbudt ved lov.
We must ensure that only those products with a reputation for being harmless are allowed to remain in circulation.
Vi giver Kommissionen muligheden for at vurdere, hvornår og hvordan vi skal nå frem til dette resultat.
It is important, however, to emphasize that what we are talking about here is the health of the public.
Vi vil ikke gå til yderligheder og ikke kræve det maksimale.
Conservative members usually place too little value on the health factor.
Jeg synes, at alle de punkter, vi har fore slået, er kloge, fornuftige og politisk afvejede, altså uden at kunne fremkalde uoverensstemmelser i den ene eller den anden retning.
This happens regularly : every time, the health factor is almost strangled by other, economic considerations.
Jeg mener derfor, at det vil være en ansvarlig politisk handling at vedtage dette forslag til beslutning.
We, on the other hand, believe that conditions are right for a change of course.
FORSÆDE: NICOLAS ESTGEN Næstformand
Cars are changing very rapidly : a change is taking place in the way cars are made and, as a result, cars themselves are changing.
Jeg mener derfor, 'at man må se meget realistisk på spørgsmålet. Det forslag, vi stiller, er særdeles fornuftigt.
Amongst other things, as I have already said, almost all the major countries in the world are moving towards leadfree petrol.
Først og fremmest kræver det, er der inden udgangen af 1985 indføres en type blyfri benzin ved siden af den blyholdige, og at biler, der kører med blyfri benzin, godkendes.
Japan and the United States of America lead this trend : sales of leadfree petrol are already higher than those of petrol with lead in it.
Desuden kræver det, at man ophæver det minimum på 0,15, som er en absurditet set under fællesskabslovgivningens synsvinkel.
From a technical standpoint, I think that all the neces sary conditions are now present for resolving the problem.
Endelig anmoder det Kommissionen om — ud fra en samlet vurdering der omfatter såvel økonomiske som sundhedsmæssige faktorer — at foreslå en definitiv og radikal løsning på problemet inden for en rimelig tid og på fornuftig vis, således at man tilgodeser både raffineringsindustriens og automobilproduktionens krav om tilpasning, ligesom man samtidig mildner den ængstelse, der er stærkt udbredt i offentligheden.
It must also be borne in mind — and I want to remind those who oppose petrol reform of this — that, for example, the Community has issued a directive on the addition of alcohol to petrol, which is a step forward in the research for leadfree petrols with the same efficiency as those that contain lead.
Vi må ikke se bort fra, at to store organisationer, forbrugerbeskyttelsesorganisationen og miljøorganisationen, for tiden fører en kampagne, som møder voksende tilslutning ikke blot i den brede, ikke teknisk kyndige offentlighed, men også i de videnskabelige og sanitære kredse, hvor man er mere og mere overbevist om, at det bly, der udstødes af bilerne, er farligt for borgernes sundhed.
Both the technical conditions and the health reasons are therefore present for progress to be made towards solutions of this kind. In addition, the Community is in danger of building up a handicap for itself, when competing with the Japanese and Americans — direct competitors in the car industry— for the simple fact that cars that run on leadfree petrol are classified as 'non-pollutant'.
Beazley (ED), ordfører for udtalelsen fra økonomi- og valutaudvalget. — (EN) Hr. formand, på et område, hvor mange tekniske argumenter er kombineret med mange følelser på begge sider i diskussionen, mente jeg, det var vort udvalgs pligt at fremlægge en objektiv udtalelse, der behandler de sider af emnet, der falder inden for vort udvalgs ansvarsområde.
Now, if other world factors, such as the energy crisis, have forced us to discover ways of saving energy that were previously ignored, why should we not hasten technological change in response to urgent health considerations ? I think this is a very fitting task for our European civilization.
Det er dog vigtigt at understrege, at det her drejer sig om borgernes sundhed.
I think therefore that we have to look at the problem very realistically.
De konservative kolleger undervurderer som sædvanlig den sanitære side af sagen.
The proposal that we are putting forward is very reasonable.
Allerede ændringen af bilerne går meget hurtigt: vi er vidner
In addition it asks for the abolition of the 0.15 minimum, which is an absurdity from the standpoint
Detaljerede vurderinger på begge disse områder blev tilgængelige for Det forenede Kongeriges vedkommende for nogle få år siden via oplysninger fra alle interesserede parter til Det forenede Kongeriges regering med henblik på den undersøgelse, der førte til beslutningen om at reducere blyindholdet i britisk benzin fra 0,4 g pr. liter til
I think that all the points that we have put forward are wise, reasonable, and weighed up politically : that is, they have no disadvantages in one direction or the other.
Eftersom fire medlemsstater endnu ikke har tilkendegivet deres hensigt om at reducere deres standardniveau til 0,15 g pr. liter, er det klart nødvendigt, at man først måtte anmode om disse medlemsstaters holdning.
Vice-President for oil refiners and motor manufacturers to plan their forward investments.
Det anbefalede derfor, at alternativerne et minimum på 0,15 g bly pr. liter og det direkte skridt i retning af blyfrit 92 oktan benzin blev vurderet i lyset af omkostninger og tidsplan over for sundhedsfaktoren.
It therefore recommended that the alternatives of a minimum of 0.15 grammes of lead per litre and the direct move to leadless 92 octane petrol should be evaluated, in regard to their costs and timing, opposite the health factor.
Samtidig skulle andre metoder til at overvinde sundhedsrisikoen, enten katalytiske filtre plus blyfælder eller brug af andre typer brændstof, f.eks. dieselolie eller benzin med andre additiver eller fyldstoffer, omkostningsvurderes og en tidsplan fastlægges for gennemførelsen.
At the same time, other means of overcoming the health hazard, whereby catalytic filters plus lead traps or by the use of other types of fuel whether diesel oil or petrol with other additives or extenders should be costed and timing provided for its achievement.
Der er ingen tvivl om, at bly er en gift — det er fast slået ganske klart — og det er noget, enhver nu ved.
Mr Beazley (ED), draftsman of an opinion for the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs. — Mr President, I speak as the draftsman of the opinion of the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs.
Men eftersom vort moderne samfund er så kompliceret, kan vi ikke altid sige, at vi aldrig vil tillade, at giftstoffer udsendes i miljøet, for der er tidspunkter, hvor vi udsender dem uden at vide det.
In a field where much technical argument has been combined with much emotion on both sides of the argument, I considered that it was the duty of our committee to present an objective report dealing with those aspects of the subject which fall within the remit of our committee.
Det var væsentligt for udvalgets tankegang, at forskel lige beslutninger ville have en betydelig virkning på størrelsen af omkostningsforøgelsen og energitabet.
It was significant to the Committee's thinking that different decisions would have a considerable affect on the size of the cost increase and the energy penalty involved.
Medens blytfrit benzin med et lavt oktantal medførte begrænsede, om end betydelige investeringer i raffinaderisektoren, som jo allerede præges af en betydelig overkapacitet, og kun begrænsede omkostninger med hensyn til motordesign, repræsenterede benzin med højt oktantal en meget stor investering og et meget stort energitab på raffinaderiniveau.
Whilst low-octane, leadless petrol involved limited, although significant investment in the refinery sector which is, of course, already in heavy over-capacity and only limited cost in motor engine design, nevertheless high-octane petrol represented both a very high investment and a very high energy penalty at the refinery stage.
Biler med høj kompression har været typen på effektive, billige biler i Europa sammenholdt med den mindre effektive brug af brændstof i USA.
High compression motor cars have been the feature of efficient low-cost motoring in Europe compared with the less efficient use of fuel in the USA.
Alligevel udgør benzin med højt oktantal i USA ca. 50 % af brændstofforbruget til private biler, hvilket i høj grad forøger sundhedsrisikoen sammenlignet med blyfrit benzin med lavt oktantal i motorer med lavere kompression.
Even so, in the USA high-octane leaded petrol still represents approximately 50 % of the fuel used for the private motor car which very much increases the health risk compared with the lowoctane leadless petrol in lower compression engines.
Når man kommer til at overveje det spørgsmål, begynder man måske at beklage den unuancerede måde, hvorpå spørgsmålet om bly i benzin alt for ofte er blevet præsenteret.
A decision therefore has to be made on the future of a high-compression engine in Europe which has been the trend of efficient fuel usage and modern design of European motor cars.
Udover det primære spørgsmål, om man er for eller imod dens afskaffelse, er der en hel række tekniske og økonomiske problemer, som er alt for vigtige, til at man kan se bort fra dem.
The Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs therefore conceived its task to be to concentrate on the costs and timings of whatever changes might be deemed to be necessary.
Man kan ikke komme uden om, at når man fjerner bly fra benzin, forøger man energi forbruget i raffineringsprocessen. Jeg skal ikke gå i detaljer med det problem.
Detailed estimates in both these areas were available in the case of the UK a few years ago from the submissions of all interested parties to the UK Government with regard to the investigation which led to the decision to reduce the lead content of British petrol from 0.4 grammes per litre to 0.15 over a period of 5 years.
