Selvfølgelig foretrækker jeg at handle, foretrækker jeg at være foran Dem på det tidspunkt, hvor der er mulighed for at gøre store ting, Har De lagt mærke til den måde,
In addition, there is a reference to the social dialogue which we have initiated in the Community, successfully in my view, notably at the meeting held on 12 November last at Val Duchesse.
Den anden måde at se tingene på er, at man simpelt hen betragter den tilstand, der hidtil rådede, og sam menligner den med den tilstand, der vil råde, såfremt topkonferencens resultater ratificeres af alle tolv par lamenter.
Coming now to the powers of the Commission, let me remind you of the situation as it now stands: as well as the negative influence of the requirement for unanimity and the refusal to take decisions (there is a large backlog of texts awaiting decisions), the Commission is hampered in implementing the Council's decisions by a wide variety of obstacles, the essential aspects of
For den, der har læst Rom-traktaterne, stod det dog fra begyndelsen af fast, at ændringer og tillæg
That, I think, concludes the brief review that I wanted to make following my longer comments on the large internal market, which is the indicator of what is feasible at this stage, of what I have referred to as the 'Europe of the feasible'.
Dermed kommer jeg til det spørgsmål, om der er blevet noget tilbage til Europa-Parlamentet og dets for slag om mere demokrati og en forbedret beslutningsprocedure.
If the Council fails to take a decision within three months, there will be a legal void which will have to be filled.
Det kan ikke ses, om der bortset fra Italien er en eneste regering, der har været villig til for alvor at begrænse regeringernes dominerende rolle i Fællesskabernes politiske proces til fordel for andre politisk agerende.
As matters stand, therefore, there are two sets of circumstances under which a legal void can arise.
Vi ønskede en europæisk union.
What happens if the Council fails to take a decision on a text?
Tillad mig en sammenligning: vi ønskede det blomstrende paradis, — og nu forærer topmødet os kun en potteplante.
It will be extremely interesting to listen to what you have to say about these problems today and to hear your practical proposals for dealing with them.
Et spørgsmål, der fra begyndelsen af har været væsentligt specielt for min gruppe, har været, om det vigtig ste skulle være at få gennemført visse politiske maksimalforestillinger eller at bevare sammenholdet mellem De Tolv.
Just as voting by qualified majority will become the rule, delegation of implementing powers to the Commission will become the principle.
Vi socialister kan simpelt hen ikke forestille os, at den internationale handlekraft og den internationale status for et » Europa med to hastigheder« ville vokse, når Storbritannien og to andre stater stod »udenfor«.
Only in exceptional cases will the Council — acting unanimously — be able to assume responsibility itself for laying down the details of measures to implement its decisions.
Derfor kan jeg for min gruppes ved kommende kun konstatere, at der langtfra blev nået det, det store flertal forestillede sig, og det, som sam menslutningen af socialdemokratiske partier krævede af topkonferencen i Luxembourg.
For those who are not convinced, I would say, to put it in a rather complicated way, that the new Article 145 in the draft, combined with Article 149, paragraph 1, gives the Commission an opportunity to circumscribe the 'grey area' of the various committees and to reduce the obstacles.
Der er et voksende demokratisk underskud i Europa, det kan kun ændres, hvis man giver Europa-Parlamentet flere rettigheder.
The Commission will therefore be listening to what you have to say, but I would nevertheless remind you that it had already proposed a complete solution which also went further.
Hvis udenrigsministrene ikke i næste uge i det mindste pynter den netop nævnte potteplante med lidt mere forhåbningsfuldt grønt, så er konflikten sikkert uundgåelig.
Our solution was simple: if the Council, acting by a simple majority, did not reject a text amended by Parliament and endorsed by the Commission, or if it took no decision, the amended text would automatically be regarded as having been adopted.
Flertallet i min gruppe og de socialdemokratiske og socialistiske partier i vores sammenslatning vil også fremdeles med fuld energi arbejde for en europæisk union.
The procedure would thus have been able to come full circle, so to speak, if that is an expression which lends itself to translation. But this solution was not accepted, on grounds of principle.
Jeg tænker i den forbindelse på det indre marked, forskningspolitikken og valutapolitikken.
It emerged from the last con sultation between the President of the European Parliament and the Intergovernmental Conference.
I dag er vi nødt til at konstatere, at national politik ikke er i stand til at overvinde arbejdsløsheden.
We wanted to show that consultation served some purpose and we thought that this in itself was a sufficient argument for it to be given more consideration than it received.
Den, der ser på arbejdsløshedstallet i de enkelte stater, må konstatere, at ingen af medlemsstaterne har med sin økonomiske enegangspolitik op nået et nævneværdigt resultat mod arbejdsløsheden.
The fact is that the issue of whether or not the Council should always have the final decision is really an ideological issue.
Den enorme afhængighed af verdensmarkedet og den faktiske indbyrdes økonomiske sammenfletning i Det europæiske Fællesskab giver os kun en chance, hvis vi bekæmper arbejdsløsheden med en fælles euro pæisk politik.
In practice, anyone wishing to see the situation in true perspective would realize that, in both the first and second versions of the text, but particularly in the second, a de facto co-decision between Parliament and the Council would be possible.
Ingen i min gruppe, ingen national gruppering vil vende sig mod europæiske afgørelser, når det står fast, at arbejdsløsheden ene og alene kan bekæmpes på denne måde.
We on our side limited ourselves in our initial proposals to the platform for regeneration, so as to provide a formal demonstration that the European Parliament also has its priorities and is going to devote all its energies and skills to the building of this platform.
Formanden. — Hr. Ford vil begrunde den forespørgsel, der er genstand for forhandlingen under ét sam men med redegørelserne fra Rådet, ved mødets begyndelse i eftermiddag.
This, then, I repeat, is a matter which remains unsolved, because there is a legal void which the For eign Ministers will have to fill on 16 and 17 December.
Klepsch (PPE). — (DE) Fru formand, mine damer og herrer, vi er i en vigtig fase i Det europæiske Fælles skabs udvikling.
Bearing all these things in mind, can it be said that we are still on course, or did this Intergovernmental Con ference deflect Europe from the main line to European Union and onto a siding?
Det er jo ganske klart: efter at det blev besluttet i Milano at afholde en ministerkonference, hvis resultater vi begynder at tale om, og efter at topmødet i Luxembourg har vedtaget beslutninger og henstillinger, må vi gøre regnskab for at se, hvor dan vi kommer frem ad denne vej.
This question cannot be answered without making a frank and realistic analysis of the situation in the Community.
Vi vil altså inden for den bestående ramme vælge det, der lader sig gøre.
It is necessary to be aware of the limitations, the dangers, and the safeguards that we have obtained.
Det burde Rådet også gøre.
What of the European Parliament's powers in these areas?
(Bifald fra venstre)
You yourselves have also pointed this out.
Som noget positivt kan vi notere, at det blev klart, at alle medlemsstater er indstillet på at gå videre ad vejen til den europæiske politiske union.
Not a pairing against the Council, but a pairing imposed by the texts in that the Commission has the right of initiative and the Commission's initiatives can be overturned by Parliament.
Alle var klar over, at i den situation, Europa befinder sig i i dag, kan der kun betrædes en fælles vej for at opleve en fælles fremtid.
That is why, in objective terms, there is this pairing of the European Parliament and the Commission.
Hvis vi vil realisere den model, der hedder sikring af freden, den frie samfundsordning og fremskridtet i denne verden, må vi gå denne vej sam-
I would remind you that if this text is adopted, the Council will have to be unanimous if it is going to reject a proposal amended by Parliament and endorsed by the Commission.
Den, der gør det, forekommer mig som en, der hurtigt slår en anden ihjel, før han leverer bevis for, hvor forkasteligt det er at ihjelslå.
First of all, nobody, I repeat, nobody expressed the wish, the political will, for some of the Twelve to
Et vigtigt punkt bør fastholdes: De Tolv vil gå fremad i fællesskab.
No, the single Act gives protection against such excesses.
For min gruppe er det vigtigt at konstatere, at der er udgangspunkter for reformer og kompetenceudvidelser i Det europæiske Fællesskab, og at man udfolder bestræbelser for at stramme beslutningsproceduren.
That is something which must be remembered. To put it another way in words which may be lapidary but in my view reflect a very accurate political analysis, they wanted to be 12, they are afraid of being 12, but they want to continue as 12.
Men vi er klar over, at det, der efter vores mening er politisk påkrævet og sagligt nødvendigt, går betydeligt ud over det, der nu er blevet besluttet. Naturligvis er det ikke så enkelt at foretage vurderinger af enkelte punkter.
If that is not understood, nothing is understood and nothing is going to be achieved.
Et punkt, som jeg senere vil sige noget om, nemlig Europa-Parlamentets medarbejde, er helt sik kert et område, der specielt er kommet til kort.
For the past year the Community approach has been questioned, whether implicitly or explicitly, and what we now have to defend is the Community approach and its future.
I denne ånd retter jeg også en tak til det luxembourgske formandskab og i særdeleshed til Dem, ministerpræsident Santer, for Deres bestræbelser på at nå det optimale resultat.
Three important dates have been set. If, by the end of two years, there has been no change in the behaviour of the Council, in the Council's preparatory commit tees, in the implementation committees or perhaps even in the Commission's bureaucracy, I shall come back to you with the message that what we are doing is not going to work and that it will be necessary to convene another intergovernmental conference.
Vi er klar over at det, der skal vedtages enstemmigt og ratificeres af tolv nationale parlamenter, ikke er i stand til at opfylde alle ønsker, ellers havde vi jo for længst nået målet.
Should that happen, the question whether all 12 Mem ber States should still be trying to move forward in unison will arise once again.
Derfor mener vi også, at dem forestående udenrigsministerkonference, der skal eller skulle kunne udfylde de af formanden for Kommissionen, hr. Delors, tidligere nævnte juridiske lakuner, kunne føre regeringsche fernes bestræbelser til ende og måske — for at citere hr. Arndt — gøre den potteplante, man vil overrække os i form af et færdigformuleret traktatudkast, lidt kønnere.
This is the danger that we have to recognize. And if you ask for too much — but from what I have seen of your most recent texts, you are not asking too much — you will be giving ammunition to those who, for months and months past, have been voicing their scepticism about the Community approach, to which they prefer intergovernmental cooperation.
Desuden vil jeg takke alle, der har været med til at støtte videregående tanker.
You want some examples?
Men til dem,der tøver, vil jeg sige: Europa er vores anstrengelser værd! Min gruppe vil beslutsomt udnytte enhver chance for at danne Europa, og vi vil, hvad alle detailspørgsmål angår, ikke lade det skorte på god vilje.
The refusal to incorporate provisions on monetary cooperation or social affairs in the Treaty, the questioning of certain initiatives in the technology field, about which you will have the opportunity to express your views in a few moments.
Men dette spørgsmål melder sig senere.
It is up to us to turn it into a dynamic compromise.
Derfor vil vi først fælde vores endelige dom, når det samlede resultat foreligger.
We must stay on course. Naturally, I would prefer to be operating, to be addressing you at a time when we could be plan ning developments on the grand scale.
Trods mange tilbageslag er vi kristelige demokrater fremdeles af den overbevisning, at den europæiske union fortsat er målet, og at den er vores eneste chance for at realisere det menneskeværdige samfund, vi går ud fra i vores politiske arbejde.
Did you notice the style in which the various governments reported on the Luxembourg Council when they got home?
Vi mener, at det indre marked er et centralt punkt, og at nødvendigheden af at udfylde det, der nu er sat i gang, med et pragmatisk og praktisk arbejde først kan bedømmes senere.
The tone was muted, almost as though they wanted to pass unnoticed in some cases.
Vi er forpligtet til sammen med Kommissionen og medlemsstaterne at vove springet for at bringe Det europæiske Fællesskab videre.
I would say that this is just as well, because we have heard so many triumphal postSummit proclamations that this moderate tone was a change for the better.
Men vi er også af den mening, at det, der er sket i retning af at forbedre beslutningsproceduren, ikke er tilstrækkeligt. keligt.
But I have not lost hope that one day, if we keep our shoulders to the wheel, the Europe of the feasible will revert to the Europe of the ideal.
Sir Henry Plumb (ED). — (EN) Fru formand, mine damer og herrer, der er en kendt vittighedstegning fra Punch, der er gået ind i det engelske sprog.
What has to be ensured, ladies and gentlemen, is that the Community approach is given another chance to show its worth.
Den visser to gejstlige i et landsogn, der spiser æg til morgen mad.
But we cannot pretend that we have a clear run to the objective on the horizon, which no opponents in sight.
Biskoppen siger til hjælpepræsten: »Deres æg ser dårligt ud, vil De levne det?« og hjælpepræsten svarer høfligt: »Ih nej, Deres Nåde, jeg forsikrer Dem om, at dele af det er udmærket «.
The opponents are not only those who are overtly hostile but also the sceptics, whose ranks are swelling all the time and will find yet more recruits if we ourselves take things to extremes.
Der er klart delte meninger om, hvorvidt humorens standard i vittighedstegningerne i Punch er blevet bedre siden da.
We must therefore be moderate in our ambitions since, to quote a wellknown French proverb, 'Le mieux est parfois l'ennemi du bien'.
Men udtrykket »en hjælpepræsts æg« er på en gelsk kommet til at betyde alt, der har gode eller dårlige elementer, alt, som det er vanskeligt at fælde en generel dom over.
President. — I thank the President of the Commission for giving us so much information and also for providing us with the insights and the guidance of which we stand so much in need both now and for the future.
De tilløb og fremskridt, der kunne noteres i denne henseende, er efter vores opfattelse ikke vidtgående nok til, at vi kan føle glæde over dem.
At that time some of the Member States had their sights fixed on political cooperation, through an extension of the Genscher/ Colombo document, a leap in the dark which offered nothing of substance for the Community.
Resultaterne af Det europæiske Råds møde i Luxembourg i sidste uge er måske et klassisk eksempel på »hjælpepræstens æg«. Der er gode ting, der er dårlige ting, og der er ting, som vi endnu ikke kan være sikre på.
Mr Arndt (S). — (DE) Mr President, I have been given the task of making a detailed political appraisal of the outcome of the 33rd Summit in Luxembourg on behalf of the Socialist Group — no easy task, you will admit.
Den modtagelse, som min gruppe og Parlamentet bør give denne pakke, er nødvendigvis af forbeholden art. Hvis resultaterne af rådsmødet er et første skridt i den rigtige retning, glæder vi os over dem.
However the difficulty of that task is in no way due to the fact that there is a majority and a minority view in my group, but rather to the fact that it is genuinely difficult to judge the outcome of a summit objectively.
Men hvis de er et højdepunkt for Det europæiske Råds aspira-
There are, in fact, two possible ways of looking at it.
Sir Henry Plumb tion for fremskridt i Fællesskabet, så er de klart utilstrækkelige. strækkelige.
No-one in my party, no national grouping, will oppose European decisions, if it is established that these are the one and only way to fight unemployment.
Det er muligvis et passende tidspunkt at nævne en særlig frygt i min gruppe — en frygt, der er snævest forbundet med det interne marked.
Allow me to produce a star witness, one who is certainly not loved on all sides of the House: if Arthur Scargill himself says that the spectre of unemployment in British coalmining can only be fought through an integrated European policy for coal, and if he there fore calls for an integrated European policy, then he is nevertheless a star witness — and certainly an unexpected one.
Der nævnes ikke noget om proceduren i Rådet med hensyn til afgørelser ved flertalsafstemning, hvor traktaten foreskriver det. Luxembourg-forliget er derfor efter vor mening fortsat uberørt.
I have far more respect for a country which fights to retain the right of veto but makes no use of it itself than for a government which advocates the abolition of the right of veto in highflown phrases but makes maximum use of it up till then.
Min gruppe glæder sig over Rådets beslutning om at fastlægge Fællesskabets nu værende fælles strategier med hensyn til miljø- og teknologispørgsmål i traktatmæssig form.
May I remind you not just of some of the enthusiastic speeches which various Heads of State have made before this House.
Men både miljø- og teknologispørgsmålene er blot del af det meget mere omfattende forehavende, som Det europæiske Råd har givet et forsigtigt skub,nemlig realiseringen af et virkeligt internt marked inden 1992.
May I remind you also of the political venom which the European People's Party, for instance, showed towards members of my group, simply because we warned against excessive hopes of realizing European Union.
Vi bemærker, at Rådet i den foreslåede artikel 149 ikke har pålagt sig selv — som det har pålagt Parlamentet — nogen form for frist for førstebehandlingen af udkastet fra Kommissionen, Vi skal tage os i vare for at ændre traktaten til at tillade flere flertalsafstemninger og så se, at Rådet med sin sædvanlige ubeslutsomhed og utilbøjelighed til at gribe fat i vanskelige problemer atter og atter udskyder at stemme om de foranstaltninger, der er nødvendige for at tilvejebringe dette interne marked.
If we detect something akin to Europe-weariness up and down the Community, the responsibility does not lie only with those who have blocked virtually any progress in Europe; it lies also with those who announced magnificent objectives in their week end speeches, knowing full well that they were far removed from what is actually possible.
Tidligere på året blev der fremsat en række forslag om at afskaffe eller i det mindste at modificere Luxembourg-forliget.
The summit must have been a serious disappointment for those who had announced great objectives.
Jeg går ikke selv ind for en fuldstændig opgivelse af Luxembourg-forliget, men jeg forstår dem, der gør det.
This brings me to the question of whether there is any thing left for the European Parliament and its proposals for increased democracy and improved decision making procedures.
Jeg er enig med dem i, at rækkeviden af dets anvendelse bør modificeres i betydelig grad.
There is no indication that even a single EC government, apart from Italy, was seriously prepared to restrict the dominant role of the govern ments in the political processes of the Communities in favour of other political actors.
Dette er måske den mest presserende opgave, der stadig er uløst i Rådets arbejde i sidste uge.
What the Foreign Ministers are supposed to decide during the week is at most a tiny consolation prize.
Ved at anerkende et specielt tilfælde skaber det grundlaget for at anerkende tolv specielle tilfælde.
It was in any case clear at the outset to anyone who had read the Rome Treaties that amendments to the Treaties can only be passed unanimously and that in order to become effective the results of the conference have to be ratified by the parliaments of all the Member States.
Ligeledes beklager jeg, at det ikke var muligt at gå videre mod afgiftsmæssig tilnærmelse i Rådets konklusioner.
It is precisely this question, whether the main emphasis should be on the implementation of certain political maxima or on the continued cohesion of the Twelve, which has been important for my group from the outset.
Uden en sådan afgiftsmæssig tilnærmelse vil vi aldrig få et virkeligt internt marked uden grænser, og bibeholdelsen af enstemmighed i dette spørgsmål betyder for mig, at medlemsstaterne stadig er fanget i den snæversynede, ikke tidssvarende ide om national økonomisk suverænitet.
For us Social ists it is simply inconceivable that the capacity for act ion at international level and the international status of a 'two-speed Europe' should increase while Great Britain and two other States stood 'out front'.
Denne ide pas sede måske til det 19. århundrede, men den passer næppe til det 20. århundrede og stemmer absolut ikke overens med den grundliggende filosofi og aspirationerne i forbindelse med den europæiske union.
That is why I have to say on behalf of my group that what the great majority hoped for and what the Confederation of Socialist and Social Democratic parties asked for from the Luxembourg Summit are far from having been achieved.
Jeg går nu over til Rådets konklusioner vedrørende Europa-Parlamentet.
There is a growing democratic deficit in Europe, and it cannot be eliminated unless the European Parliament is given increased rights.
Disse konklusioner er, må det indrømmes, ufuldstændige, og at Rådet skulle have været ude af stand til at blive enig om mere end det meget overfladiske udkast, vi har faet forelagt, er ikke særlig inspirerende.
If the Foreign Ministers do not at least brighten up the said bunch of violets with some more cheerful foliage next week, conflict is inevitable.
Jeg finder det morsomt at se. at selv på de områder, hvor Rådet ikke er enig om de procedurer, Europa-Parlamentet bør følge, er an enige om, at Rådet under alle omstændigheder har det sidste ord at skulle have sagt.
The majority of my party and of the Social Democratic and Socialist parties in our Confederation will persevere in working towards European Union.
Fru formand, jeg ønsker ikke at være uelskværdig.
There has at least been a step forwards in some areas.
De er gode ting ved passagerne om det interne marked.
I am thinking of the decisions on the internal market, research policy, monetary policy.
Forslaget om, at den eksisterende nationale lovgivning skal tages op til fornyet overvejelse i 1992, muligvis med henblik på at erklære de eksisterende nationale bestemmelser overensstemmende med dem, der anvendes af enhver medlemsstat, er interessant og lovende.
My group's verdict on these steps depends primarily on whether they lead to a reduction in unemployment. We have to say, however, that nowadays national policies are not capable of eliminating unemployment.
Hvis det ikke havde været for Det euro pæiske Råds forslag om det interne marked, ville min gruppes holdning til Det europæiske Råds arbejde i sidste uge have været meget anderledes og mindre positiv.
Anyone who looks at the unemployment figures for the individual States has to admit that not one of the Member States has had any striking success against unemployment
skridt ville have været en ægte symbolsk tilkendegivelse af Parlamentets demokratisk begrundede rolle i Fællesskabets lovgivningsprocedure.
Lizin been given the speaking time which he is allowed to present his oral question on Eureka, which we con sider to be of fundamental importance in the context of this debate.
Jeg beklager me get, at Rådet gik uden om dette.
However, we still cannot get away from this whole problem.
