Hvis vi fremsætter forslag, der er for vidtrækkende, og som risikerer at blive bremset, fordi vi behøver en enstemmig godkendelse fra Rådet, får vi også skyld for at blokere Fællesskabet, og det selv om Rådet ved, at vi mere end nogen sinde har brug for fremskridt, det være sig både inden for jern- og stålindustrien, med hensyn til arbejdsløsheden, på landbrugsområdet etc. Men i det forum, hvor beslutningerne vedtages enstemmigt, kan man ikke kræve af Kommissionen, at den altid skal indskrænke sig til at holde sig inden for grænserne af sine rettigheder, når vi ved, at regeringerne ikke følger trop.
In addition, this decision — if we really want it to be a creative one — must be backed up by a sturdy and well controlled decision­making potential in order to prévent our realistic and courageous determination from spending itself in petitions on principles which are well­meaning but ill­considered; instead we must achieve material gains which involve the other institu­tions, governments, national parliaments and all the cultural and political forces of the whole Community. The pursuit of such an outcome is worthy of a deci­sion by Parliament which should be backed up by shared enthusiasm and commitment.
Jeg vil først tale om indholdet og målsætningerne i den institutionelle debat.
President. — I call the Political Affairs Committee.
Efter vor mening bør det ikke være et påskud for brug af ren og skær retorik, der er beregnet på at underholde os med aktuelle
Mr Rumor, Chairman Committee. — (IT) Mr of the Political Affairs President, ladies and
Det er derfor normalt, at De, mine herrer, inden for den interinstitutionelle trilogi går meget videre end vi, og jeg indrømmer gerne, at Kommissionen måske ligeledes bør være mere dristig i fremtiden og vide, inden for hvilke områder den kan driste sig til at fremsætte forslag, men De må forstå, at det er nødvendigt, at denne Kommission, som har andre forpligtelser end De, imidlertid af og til også må være en smule mere realistisk, end De behøver at være.
But, Mr President, this week's part­session must be hailed as a significant moment above all because, in order to bear witness to this desire for stimulating the Community and breaking new ground, this House is called upon to discuss and to take decisions on a whole range of motions for resolutions which immediately get to grips with specific and basic prob­lems in our institutional system and provide immediate potential for progress and change.
Hvad angår de målsætninger, der er omhandlet i denne debat, gør to synspunkter sig gældende: det ene er udsprunget af bekymringen for effektiviteten, og det andet går i retning af en højere grad af over skuelighed med hensyn til, hvorledes Fællesskabet fungerer.
Following the Rey resolution, approved by Parliament last year, which had a positive impact on our relations with the 'Commission, we are now called upon to examine institutional relations which are open to our assessment.
Måske burde vi oftere have orienterende debatter — det være sig på udvalgsniveau eller i plenarforsamlingen — endnu før end man fremlagde konkrete forslag for de besluttende myndigheder.
I have already said that the motions for resolutions before us today mean a return to the original institu tional system which has been distorted and battered over the years by the all-pervasive extension of the powers and responsibilities of the Council and a gradual reduction and etiolation of those of the Commission, which is in particular the bitter fruit of the over-application of the compromise on unanimous decisions reached in Luxembourg.
Ingen skal være i tvivl herom: anden generations Europa vil kun opleve den dag, hvis vi bevarer og forbedrer Fællesskabets effektivitet ifølge traktaten.
It is, therefore, with justification that our resolutions deal with the decisionmaking process in the Council, because its working methods have repercussions on Parliament's place in the institutions as established in the Treaties.
Derfor bør den institutionelle debat ikke forlede os til at forvanske de indbyrdes arbejdsforhold alt for meget; den bør tværtimod stræbe efter at gøre systemet mere funktionsdygtigt, mere dynamisk.
We have a wide range of proposals for which — both as Chairman of the Political Affairs Committee and as spokesman for my group — I feel obliged to thank the rapporteurs Mr Diligent, Mr Hänsch, Mr Van Miert, Lady Elles and Mrs Baduel Glorioso for their excellent work.
Det er især på den måde, at debattens trilaterale dimension får sin fulde betydning.
I should also like to thank the Subcommittee on Institutional Problems and its Chairman for having formulated precise proposals.
Det ser mere og mere ud som om det er i beslutningsprocessen, at Fællesskabet marcherer på stedet, og jeg forsikrer Dem om, at det vil fortsætte hermed, i det mindste så længe det indskrænker sig til beslutninger, der træffes enstemmigt.
And, leastly, I should like to thank the Political Affairs Committee which in a series of terse and.far-reaching discussions, during four intensive sittings, made it possible for the texts of the reports to be placed before us for debate today.
Denne samarbejdsvilje er mere klar end nogen sinde, og vi agter at stille Dem nogle konstruktive forslag i lyset af de ting, De vil anmode os om i denne debat.
When these reports are added to the others by Mr Blumenfeld, Mr Antoniozzi and Mr Berkhouwer, which are at present being drawn up and examined, then the Political Affairs Committee will be providing Parliament with a substantial corpus of information covering the whole breadth of the institutional horizon.
Alt for ofte, alt for systematisk synes den beslutnings dygtige instans personificeret i Rådet at være fikseret på en ofte frygtsom søgen efter enstemmighed mellem medlemsstaterne. Der finder vi hovedårsagen til den relative tilbagegang, der præger Fællesskabets effektivitet. vitet.
Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the Political Affairs Committee, in putting forward these reports and shortly those which are now also being drawn up on the extremely difficult and complex subject of uniform electoral legislation, wishes to subject to Parliament's scrutiny those questions which are not touched upon or remain simply implicit in the Treaties and what they do not contain at all, all of which correspond, or at least do not go against, their truly Community inspiration.
Jeg understreger blot, at man i en såkaldt værdig institutionel debat ikke vil kunne krybe uden om dette afgørende aspekt og undlade at påpege de skævheder, der følger heraf.
It is quite intentional, ladies and gentlemen, if these resolutions refer to the central and motivating func tion of Parliament.
Hvis det ikke forholdt sig således, ville denne debat kun resultere i en af de luftbobler, der karakteriserer den europæiske historie, men som ikke tiltrækker sig de menneskers opmærksomhed, der kaster et flygtigt blik på dem.
And this must be so, if we are of the view that Parliament, after direct elections, represents an historical breakthrough which has radically transformed the scale of political values within the Community.
De udmærkede betænkninger, der netop er blevet fremlagt i dag, markerer efter min mening utvivlsomt en begyndelse i den rigtige retning.
Through these reports, Parliament is not resigning itself to 'adjustments', and not renouncing its desire for more sweeping innovations.
Uden at forklejne den ivrighed, hvormed nogle i denne forsamling, ligesom i andre instanser, giver udtryk for ambitioner, der går ud over de nuværende institutionelle rammer — jeg selv iberegnet — er Deres arbejde, som visselig er præget af megen fantasi, efter alles mening et værdifuldt bidrag og samtidig en opmuntring til en fortsættelse af fornyelsen af fællesskabsforbindelserne.
It is, however, trying to forestall the unfortunate and retrograde move towards the renationalization of Community decisions, and to offset this by giving new impetus to the process of unification, by proposing a different way of viewing institutional relations and powers.
Min kollega Andriessen følger hele denne debat og har i lyset af de indlæg, der fremføres, bemyndigelse til i Kommissionens navn at tage stilling hertil og forsøge at fastlægge en ny frem gangsmåde med hensyn til samarbejdet mellem Kommissionen og Europa-Parlamentet.
But if we start with this problem, it clearly emerges from a reading of the resolutions, that they largely redefine the system of relations both between the main institutions, in particular between the Commission and the Council of the Communities and also the responsibilities and powers which they possess.
(Bifald)
This is true.
Brandt. — (EN) Hr. formand, jeg vil gerne indlede med at give udtryk for min påskønnelse af, hvad formanden for Kommissionen netop har sagt.
I have already explained the immediate reasons for this, as indeed Mr Hänsch did too.
Vor forsamling, der er valgt ved direkte almindelig valgret, er nu på lovlig vis forsynet med evnen til at deltage i styringen af denne integration. Den repræsenterer i sin forskel ligartethed Fællesskabets befolkninger.
And let us not too easily forget that it is by a prag matic approach that the joint budgetary authority, political cooperation and the European Council were born, none of which were provided for in the Treaties.
(') Parlamentets sammensætning — fristen for fremlæggelse af ændringsforslag: jf. forretningsordenen.
And is there anyone here who can deny that the joint budgetary authority achieved — and we should not forget this — by the non-elected Parliament, paved the way for a new system of interinstitutional relations?
Hvorfor forventer de af mine kolleger, hvem jeg sædvanligvis tiltaler på et andet sprog,'at jeg altid giver udtryk for mine synspunkter på tysk?
Of course, Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the first steps we have taken by holding this special debate on institutional,problems is only the start of a long march.
Hvorfor er vi mere tilbagestående end selv De fore nede Nationer?
It will be no simple matter to reach a very broad convergence on one single outlook for Europe.
Det er sandelig ingen overdrivelse fra min side, når jeg siger, at Det europæiske Fællesskab simpelt hen ikke fungerer godt nok.
managed to become recognized at this level — a role which ought naturally to be developed to the full?
Hr. formand, det vi atter må overveje og forny, er den måde, hvorpå, de europæiske institutioner -fungerer, herunder ikke mindst samspillet mellem Rådet, Kommissionen og Parlamentet.
Who can deny that the European Council has become a body to which reference is made and from which stimulus comes for initiating many of the basic steps made towards European integration?
Som Hänschbetænkningen helt rigtigt fremfører, har Rådet i mellemtiden fået en overvægt, hvad der ikke er belæg for i traktaten.
On this subject, we should mention the intention expressed by the President of the European Council, in answer to a request previously made by the Political Affairs Committee, in a declaration after the Luxembourg Summit, to initiate exchanges with Parliament.
Vort Europa bør blomstre i sin alsidighed, ellers ville det være uærligt over for sig selv.
But we must be careful not to set off on the wrong foot.
Selvfølgelig forstår jeg nødvendig heden af at oversætte alle fællesskabsdokumenter til medlemsstaternes sprog. Hvad jeg imidlertid ikke kan acceptere er, at dette også gælder alle taler, eller at vi føler en slags kunstig pligt til at tale på vort modersmål.
We must be careful not to ignore the size of the obstacles before us, and the very real need to pause from time to time.
Ligeledes — og jeg deler i høj grad det synspunkt, som formanden for Kommissionen har givet udtryk for — er fastholdelsen af enstemmighed som en, generel regel og således også som en blokeringsmekanisme en meget negativ ting.
I therefore feel, ladies and gentlemen, that if we consider the proposals before us today to be valid, then we must open negotiations with the Council and the Commission in order to arrive at a common declaration which will sanction the actual implementation of this intention.
På samme måde er det vigtigt at notere sig, at Europa-Parlamentets partner er Rådet. Traktaten taler om Rådet og ikke en række forskellige råd.
Well, it is precisely when one is undertaking institu tional reforms that one must carefully weigh one's steps, so that good intentions do not become bogged down in the sands of stubborn and protracted resist ance.
Jeg opfordrer så mange af mine kolleger som muligt til at kommunikere med hinanden uden hensyntagen til prestige, ligegyldig, hvor meget vi end måtte elske vort eget modersmål.
The major repercussions which some of these proposals would have on the system now in force will doubt less raise difficulties for us.
Enhver, der normalt taler tysk med mig, bør være frit stillet og kan fortsætte med det, selv om han f.eks. ønsker at kommentere, hvad jeg siger her i dag, og jeg beder formanden om at se med kritiske øjne på sprogspørgsmålet, som jeg netop har refereret til kort.
It is precisely for this reason that I propose, in order to lend weight to our commitment, that the texts of our resolutions — in their most relevant forms — be sent to the national parliaments or — at least — to groups similar to ours in the national parliaments.
På den anden side er jeg enig i, at man må hilse den kendsgerning velkommen, at stats- og regeringscheferne på deres seneste møde i Luxembourg vedtog et forslag fremsat af den tyske kansler om, at den person, der har forsædet i Deres Råd, møder op i denne forsamling i begyndelsen — eller omkring begyndelsen — af hver embedsperiode.
And we must not try to sidestep some fundamental points. Our premise is that into the broad framework of a system of correctly separated and autonomous powers must be inserted the incontrovertible historical, cultural and economic reality which is Europe, whose political organization must necessarily be original and different from that of any other experiment in unionism or federalism.
Hr. formand, betænkningen, som vor kollega hr. Hänsch fremlagde, fortjener vor fulde anerkendelse.
This basically comes down to putting into effect immediately one of the proposals in the Diligent report.
I henhold til traktaten skal Kommissionen være en stærk institution — og ligeledes hvad angår Kommissionen — noget meget mere end blot en blanding af en topadministration og et clearingkontor for forsknings- og ekspertbetænkninger.
Our dream of a better world —- without which history is not made — in order to pass from mere wishful thinking to reality, must take account of the fact that opposition to new ideas is not always dogmatic, selfish or short-sighted.
Da Parlamentet hævdede for mere end et år siden,, at det burde have noget at skulle have sagt med hensyn til udnævnelsen af Kommissionen, gik det videre med sagen i den tro, at Kommissionen var regeringernes stærke partner og ikke en myndighed, der er underordnet regeringerne.
There are doubts and fears which deserve consideration and are born of a desire to have a clear view of a unifying pattern which respects the varied and rich characteristics of each nation, characteristics which cannot simply be ignored.
I dag ved vi, at til trods for dets nylige yderligere legalisering har dette Parlament ikke-øvet nogen væsentlig indflydelse på krisen inden for Fællesskabet, endog løst den.
It is for this reason that we must proceed in a measured way and by involving all the competent organizations possible, and all the varying cultures and forces which interact within and between the peoples of Europe.
Opnåelsen af flere rettigheder og en større sans for prioriteter danner de grundlæggende betingelser for at sikre, at Europa-Parlamentet effektivt kan opfylde sin opgave, og man må altid have et åbent øje for det i et Fællesskab, der stadig skal udvides.
Our desire is for a European Union, clearly defined in all its aspects, as the focal point of a politically active Europe, fair with itself, showing solidarity with poor peoples, and having influence because it is a point of
Enhver, der tager Det europæiske Fællesskab alvorligt, må formodes at være meget ivrig ifter at se dets struktur blive set efter i sømmene og fornyet.
On other occasions, however, the Council has shown its ability to understand this and to draw from it important, if limited, conclusions.
Brandt fællesskab, så vidt det er muligt, både inden for vor alliance og uden for denne.
As Galileo said, it is by trying and trying again — with stubborn tenacity, indomitable patience and conscious humility — that we, the citizens of Europe, must aim at and achieve our goal.
På denne baggrund påskønner jeg, at det initiativ, hr. Spinelli og hans kolleger har taget, endnu en gang giver os lejlighed til at blive enige om at definere Fællesskabets roller, og hvilken rolle dets institutionelle instrumenter skal spille for fremtiden.
This system aims to effect a useful and continuing reconciliation of national, and even regional and local, interests, and the federal idea of working for the general benefit of the Community as a whole.
Fællesskabets fremtid er noget dette Parlament ikke kan overlade til diplomater, eller regeringer alene .. .
There are' consequently many sources and centres of power within the Community, and they interact in a complex manner, but there has to be some interaction.
Hvis vi forlader dette standpunkt og bliver til en elitær klub, gør vi det umuligt for millioner af mennesker i Fællesskabet at lade sig op stille som kandidat til Det europæiske Parlament.
The Treaties offer a kind of institutional balance which makes the reconciliation I mentioned feasible and which means that it can be translated into actual policies which can help us on our way.
Fællesskabet fjerner sig stadig mere fra den europæiske borger, der ikke mere forstår ret meget af Fællesskabet. Hvis vi slår ind på denne vej, ser det mørkt ud for borgernes Europa.
In view of the Commission's role as guardian of the Treaties and the driving force in the institutional set­up, you will understand our strong attachment — which perhaps we feel rather more than the other institutions
... med alle deres byrder, bekymringer og vanskelig heder, som de fleste af os udmærket kender. Parlamentet må involvere sig, og det må gøre det med alle de relevante politiske kræfter, ikke blot i denne Forsamling, men sammen med alle i vore lande, der ønsker at bidrage til et tættere samarbejde inden for Fællesskabet.
Mr Thorn, President of the Commission. — (FR) It was a little mòre than two years ago, Mr President, that I had the privilege as a newly elected Member of the European Parliament to take my place with you in this Chamber for the first time after the direct elections.
Det, det hele drejer sig om; kære kolleger, er ikke bureaukratiets fremtid, men det europæiske folks fremtid.
That occasion represented simultaneously — as we heard again this morning — the culmination of an institutional process contained from the outset in the Treaties and also a multitude of new hopes, because we had been waiting for it for a long time, far too long.
Disse punkter er en betingelse for politisk union.
We want fresh ideas to inject some life into our rela­tions.
Med andre ord et princip kendetegnet ved borgernes deltagelse.
But that should not stop us from making the most of each and every opportunity to make all the progress we can.
Mine damer og herrer, Fællesskabet vil kun være i stand til at øve tilstrækkelig indflydelse og især imødegå de farer, der ligger i massedestruktionen og i den sult, der lides overalt i verden, hvis det styrkes og bestræber sig på at opnå en større grad af enhed.
I really believe, Mr President, that the beginning of summer 1981 will go down in the history of the Community as a milestone, on account of the institutional debate which has got under way here today and which is not going to be over quickly, and on account of the mandate which we have given to you and to the Heads of State and Government.
Hr. formand, når jeg ikke siger ret meget om bl.a. betænkningerne af Hänsch, Van Miert og Lady Elles, så er grunden den, at min kollega van Aerssen om lidt vil tale om dem.
As I have told you, Mr President, the Commission is ready to respond to Parliament's expectations even along these two courses.
Det er ikke mangel på påskønnelse, tværtimod; jeg har stor sympati for de såkaldte små skridt frem.
We are not ready to see the ' Commission dismantled or its powers eroded, and I do not think this is what you have in mind.
Men efter min gruppes ønske beskæftiger jeg mig i dag med spørgsmålet: Kan vi gøre mere i Fællesskabet?
I do not want to go over again what was said about the, mandate yesterday.
Må vi affinde os med at processen om at blive til en enhed stagnerer stadig mere?
If I may, however, there is one thing I want to say to the House.
Vor gruppes svar på alle disse spørgsmål er: nej.
At the request of the President I did not speak again at the end of the debate.
Jeg siger med tilfredshed, at vi principielt er enige med hr. Spinelli og hans gruppe og med hans initiativ her i Parlamentet.
This does not alter the fact that far too much was left hanging in the air and that far too much misunderstanding is still lingering on.
Vi må ligeledes fortsat udvikle det europæiske politiske samarbejde, og det burde mere end tidligere tilpasses Europa-Parlamentets arbejde.
The institutional debates raises the fundamental issue of the effective and democratic realization of the idea of European Union.
Flertallet af vor gruppe indtog det standpunkt, at vi burde give vore tanker et sagligt indhold, for ikke bagefter at være nødt til at konstatere, at de små skridt måske kunne være for små, og de store skridt for store.
The Commission is delighted that it can make use of the institutional debate in this part­session to get a clearer and fuller idea of what Parliament expects.
Vi ønsker selv at kunne afstikke den ramme, inden for hvilken vi vil arbejde.
These expectations will help us in drawing up the document which will be submitted to you after the summer recess.
Ligesom vi i går sagde til Kommissionen, at den bør være konkret,
As I said back in February, I think it is extremely important to
I denne sammenhæng — og hermed vil jeg slutte — bør ' man efter min mening nævne spørgsmålet om Europas eget ansvar med hensyn til sikkerhed.
Those who are keen on strengthening the Community must also be wary of ideas about the allocation of powers which are modelled too closely along the lines of national sovereignty.
Natur ligvis er dette ikke et fællesskabsspørgsmål, som trak taten gør det klart, men det er et problematisk spørgsmål.
European democracy works in different ways and has other considerations apart from parliamentary democracy as it affects the sovereign state.
Det er kommet til senere hen, da repræsentanterne for medlemsstaterne sagde: lad os gøre dette Råd til et Fællesskabsorgan; så er princippet reddet. Men erfaringen har lært os, at Rådet virker stedse mindre som Fællesskabsorgan.
I have always fought hard to strengthen the powers of this Parliament.
har vi også sagt til os selv, at vi bør være konkrete, og at vor gruppe nøjagtigt bør vide, hvilken retning den vil slå ind på.
based on majority agreement among the States. As a result, it will have to fit in with what I might call the three-way institutional talks.
Det er også en af grundene til, at den kristelig demokratiske gruppe har forelagt et ændringsforslag til beslutningsforslaget af Abens.
Apart from our two institutions, what the Commission and Parliament have to do is to get closer to the Council.
Vi ønsker et permanent udvalg for a), at kunne følge med i udviklingen, således at vi kan være sikre på, at ideerne bag og udarbejdelsen af den nye traktat ikke strander på politisk uvilje og bureaukrati og b), fordi arbejdet i det nuværende underudvalg for institutionelle spørgsmål må fortsættes.
Unfortunately there are three institutions, and this Council, which goes by the name of Council of Ministers and which is basically an assembly of States, has made up its mind that unanimity is needed for crucial decisions.
Jeg tror ikke, det er nødvendigt at udbrede sig mere om det.
I can only say that one day we shall have to make up our minds together to get back to the Treaties.
