Det er nu ved at ændre sig, og jeg er glad for, at det er ved at ændre sig.
The most affected countries were Costa Rica and, above all, Nicaragua.
En fredag for ca. tre uger siden havde jeg den ære i min egen valgkreds — faktisk i min egen by — at overvære en begivenhed, der lover godt: North Monastery, en af de ældste uddannelsesinstitutioner i Cork, indviede et nyt institut for sprogundervisning.
These two countries had fortunately both taken preventive measures, for example, the evacuation of people in the danger zones, without which the number of deaths would have been much higher.
Det har helt moderne udstyr og moderne faciliteter af den art, som denne betænkning anbefaler.
However, such measures could obviously not prevent the presence today of 300 000 people without shelter in Nicaragua.
Jeg er ikke bange for, hvad der fremover vil ske med de såkaldte officielle sprog, men jeg tror ikke, det samme kan siges om de sprog, der bruges mindre hyppigt eller er mindre udbredt inden for Fællesskabet.
As is customary in such circumstances, the Commission responded and was in fact the first to respond to the appeal for immediate aid launched on Saturday, 22 October by the governments of these two countries.
Den kendsgerning, at folk ønsker at bruge dem og tale dem, gør dem under ingen omstændigheder mindre europæiske.
These funds permitted, on the one hand, the distribution of food and blankets to people in
Kontoret for de Mindre Brugte Sprog har sit hjem sted i Irland. Det har en lille post på budgettet.
In addition to causing very serious damage to the economy, this hurricane has made the situation in Nicaragua that much worse.
Det er vi taknemmelige for, men bevillingen er for lille til, at der kan gøres en virkelig effektiv indsats for at frem me disse sprog.
The 600 000 ECU, there fore, is totally insignificant, given the extent of the problem.
Jeg vil gerne opfordre Parlamentet til at udvise større forståelse, til i højere grad at støtte anvendelsen af de mindre brugte sprog, eftersom Europa er rig i sin forskelligartethed, ikke i sin ensartet hed.
Will the Commission, first, consider expand ing its emergency aid now and, second, study very carefully the report from the experts it sent there with a view to giving massive longterm aid to help Nicaragua rebuild its economy?
Fitzgerald (RDE). — (EN) Hr. formand, som de an dre talere vil jeg gerne komplimentere ordføreren for hans meget udmærkede betænkning.
Nicaragua, unlike many other countries in that region, has a good record in using aid from the Community to improve its housing, education, welfare and the supply of fresh drinking water.
Jeg mener, det
It uses the money well.
Escudero Lopez rigdom og på vanskelighederne for den proces mod større forståelse og ensartethed, som er en forudsætning for, at det skal lykkes at opnå den kulturelle identitet.
GUTIÉRREZ DÍAZ (COM). — (ES) Mr President, we are no doubt all aware, as the Commission itself is, that the aid given, whilst flexible and centred on the three urgent and important matters, namely, medicines, clothing and food, is clearly not enough.
For at give et indtryk af problemets størrelse må vi ikke glemme, at de store historiske sammen slutninger altid er lykkedes på basis af ét eller nogle få sprog, der virker som integrerende elementer.
I therefore ask the Commission: could we be informed of the findings of the commission of experts before or during the next partsession so that we Members of Parliament and more specifically the members of the Delegation for Central America can collate the results of the evaluations of these experts with our own information and give our opinion on the economic response which the Commission is to give to the situation which has become apparent thanks to this study?
værende standhaftige medlemmer, fremlægger ordføreren en plan til fremme og forbedring af fællesskabs sprogene på EFs område.
BOESMANS (S). — (NL) Mr President, let me begin by pointing out that in 1972 considerable international solidarity was shown towards Nicaragua at a time when it was ruled by the Somoza dictatorship.
Det er en betænkning, der er blevet grundigt gennemarbejdet i udvalget.
Every body agreed afterwards that this aid was not used in the best way; on the contrary often it disappeared into the corrupt Somoza system of that time.
Og den vil måske foranledige, at Kommissionen, hvis den studerer den så omhyggeligt, som betænkningen for tjener, vil beklage, at den ikke allerede har færdiggjort det meget omtalte forslag om netop dette behov : At få borgerne i Europa, nu da det store marked nærmer sig, til at tale flere sprog.
But over the last 10 years we have been able to see that the aid provided by the Community and other international bodies to Nicaragua has been well used. Is the Com mission willing at least to grant an equivalent amount of aid in adjusted terms as the help given by the Com munity in 1972 when its development policy was not as well developed as now?
Jeg ønsker blot. stillet over for den nært forestående euro-polyglotti. at hæve en advarende finger.
At that time Nicaragua had been devastated by an earthquake, but it is already clear that the damage caused to the country now is greater than that incurred in 1972.
Der er lande, hvor man synes at være stolt af ikke at kunne andre sprog end ens eget, og selv her er der en klar skelnen mellem kultiveret sprog og vulgært sprog.
Of course I do not agree with many of the opinions we have just heard on the reasons for the political situation, but this is no time to start discussing that.
Forslaget om at læse et fag (geografi, matematik osv.) på et andet sprog end ens eget har efter vor bedømmelse flere ulemper — her hentyder jeg til lærerstaben — end fordele.
I think that in the face of a catastrophe such as these peoples are now suffering we have a duty to give them our help without mixing this subject with other political considerations which would no doubt divide us.
Her i Parlamentet har man flere gange drømt om at skelne mellem arbejdssprog og officielle sprog og give de førstnævnte en fortrinsstilling. To. tre eller højest fire.
I should also like to congratulate the Commission and to ask whether it can confirm the information, published in papers of widely differing persuasions, to the effect that the government of Nicaragua has rejected all humanitarian aid coming from the United States of America.
Lad os altså vedtage de vigtigste foranstaltninger eller lad os sørge for, at de vedtages, og lad os ikke sprede os i et forsøg på at klare ting af mindre betydning, som kun tjener til yderligere at komplicere et pro blem, der i sig selv er gigantisk.
I think that the Commission — and this request goes with the question — ought to change its attitude to the government of Nicaragua, because in these circum stances any help should be accepted, particularly because we are not dealing with political matters but struggling against the fury of the elements.
Hr. formand, på mange måder er den tid. vi lever i. kendetegnet af et sprogligt forfald.
SEAL (S). — Mr President, I too would like to con gratulate the Commission on its prompt action and also thank it for making this statement to the House.
Man skimmer i stedet for at læse rigtigt, taler og skriver upræcist.
However, if you will bear with me, Mr President, I should like to put the following point to Lord Cock field.
Vi kan ikke tillade, at indlæringen af flere sprog bliver endnu en anledning til svækkelsen af modersmålet.
The Commission took the initiative, at the time, to give food aid, yet it is being effected only very slowly and sometimes without using up the funds.
Jeg ønsker at komme med en sidste berigtigelse til punkt 16 i forslaget til beslutning: Problemet er præcis det modsatte af det her nævnte.
This would be a good opportunity, since the sums which have been mentioned to us are small, to put food aid into effect and at the same time channel help to these people.
Problemet for emigranternes børn er ikke at lære det lands sprog, hvor de lever, for det lærer de på gaden og i skolen, men det er at vedligeholde deres modersmål, så de ikke bliver sprogligt fremmede over for forældrene, der sjældent lærer modtagerlandets sprog særlig godt.
Bearing in mind that the Commission has a delegation there which is well acquainted with the problem, I think it would be an excellent thing for it to coordinate all activity before the San José Interparliamentary Conference.
René Etiemble, filolog, er af den opfattelse, at den nuværende påvirkning, som de forskellige sprog udøver på hinanden, er ved at frembringe en forfladiget og ukultiveret syntese, som han kalder babylonsk.
In view of the prompt action by the Commission, I wonder why there was such reluctance when I asked on Monday morning for a statement to be made.
Det, som jeg ville tilstræbe, er, at undervisningen i de moderne sprog først og fremmest blev et led i en generel indsats for at bevare den europæiske sproglige arv.
I am sorry that there are so few people here to hear what action the Commission has taken.
Det at lære skal ikke være ensbetydende med sammenblanding, men derimod være at lære at skelne.
It would have been much better, in my opinion, if the statement had been made earlier in the week.
Coimbra Martins (S). — (PT) Hr. formand, kulturen er et forunderligt mysterium: Den opildner alle europæiske politikeres taler ved enhver given lejlighed og især om søndagen, og den vækker begejstring og får enstemmig støtte og gensidige bifald fra medlemmer ne af Europa-Parlamentet, især om fredagen.
McMAHON (S). — Mr President, I should like to add my congratulations to those of my colleagues to the Commission for its very prompt, efficient and effective action.
Men se, hr. formand: Hvis vi skruer tiden tilbage til torsdag og onsdag, til vore diskussioner om budgettet, hvis vi betragter medlemsstaternes budget, så bliver vi be skæmmet over de småpenge, der bevilges kulturen.
Would the Commission be prepared to revise its figures upwards, bearing in mind that yes terday in the Committee on Budgetary Control we were faced with a request from the Commission for a transfer of appropriations in Article 930 of 2 million ECU from technical aid to India and Latin America?
Måske er menneskene bare sådan, eller også forstår jeg slet ikke noget: Jo større deres kærlighed er, jo mindre anstrenger de sig, jo færre penge ofrer de. Kærlighedens mysterier...
Would the Commission set its house in order, have discussions with the budgetary services of the Com mission, restore that article and send the finance in that article to the Nicaraguan Government?
Men lad os tale om sprog, thi i begyndelsen var ordet.
There is no point, it seems to me, in just saying that we should give more and more.
I næsten tyve punkter, lige så mange som de tilstede
I should like to ask the Commission if it would do two things.
McMahon (S). — (EN) Hr. formand, som nogle af de andre talere ser jeg med spændt forventning frem til
First, would it report back to Parliament immediately it receives the information from the team of experts
Det Europæiske Fællesskab kan ikke være en verden for stumme, for fremmede, for så vil vi komme til at føle os mere fremmede for hinanden, og det fælles mål, Den Europæiske Union, vil forekomme mindre tiltrækkende.
Second, would the Commission use its influence with the Member State governments of the Community to encourage them to give as much help as possible and also with the United States, which are in a position to give a large amount of help more immediately?
Det er ikke på tegnsprogets og enstavelsesordenes smalle spor, at opbygningen af Europas enhed kan skride frem !
Of course I will give an assurance that the findings of the evaluation mission will be reported to Parliament.
Undervisningen i fællesskabssprogene er således uundværdlig for tilnærmelsen mellem Europas folk, som frem for alt har brug for at tale med hinanden for at nå frem til en forståelse.
It is then a matter for Parliament itself to decide whether it wants to consider those findings and in what way it should do so.
Men under visningen i fællesskabssprogene kan ikke foregå gen nem improviserede metoder og uden styring.
I will certainly give an undertaking that we will report the findings of the evaluation mission as soon as they are available.
Den bør ikke fortabe sig i forældede hukommelsesøvelser, men derimod fokusere på bru gen af sproget i praksis.
Firstly, from the point of view of the Committee on Budgetary Control, is the Commission able to accept out proposals for a better system of payment so that the delays which recently have cropped up time and again in relation to food aid do not occur in this case?
Når uvidenheden er så stor i Ministeriet for Undervisning og Videnskab, ligger der et stort arbejde forude.
Secondly: is the Commission working together in this field with NGOs? If so, with which?
Vi vil dog ikke få en undervisning af høj kvalitet uden dygtige lærere.
However, we will pursue what has been said on that particular point.
Den rigtige under visning i fællesskabssprogene bør begynde her ved støtten til uddannelsen og videreuddannelsen af lærerne, som i de enkelte lande bør støttes af et råd sammensat af specialister, som skal hjælpe de ansvar lige myndigheder med koordineringen af de foran staltninger, som gennemføres af medlemsstaterne og Fællesskabet på dette område.
MEDINA ORTEGA (S). — (ES) Mr President, I should like to associate myself with the earlier congratulations to the Commission for its rapid action in this matter and to ask two specific questions: first, since I seem to have heard that aid has been given only to Costa Rica and Nicaragua, has aid been given also to the Republic of Colombia, which was also affected in the first stage of the hurricane?
Det andet aspekt, vi bør se nærmere på, er udvekslinger.
The first is that Mr Schön asked whether we had been in touch with nongovernmental organizations.
Vi havde »Ja til Europa «-programmet.
The answer is: yes, indeed we have.
Vi skal nu i gang med ungdomsudvekslingsprogrammet YES.
We are in touch both with the United Nations and with the Red Cross.
Jeg føler, at en af de mest gavnlige måder at tilskynde, fremme, nære og støtte sprogundervisning på er at støtte udveksling af unge og studerende ud over Fællesskabet.
Of the four airplanes sent with supplies, for example, the first was operated via the good offices of the British Red Cross, the freight charges being paid by the United Kingdom Government.
Naturligvis er det en bekostelig affære. Det er ikke billigt for unge mennesker at måtte rejse.
The second plane was operated through the French and Belgian branches of Médecins sans Frontières and the MSF is in fact pay ing the freight charges on that airplane.
At komme i kontakt med et fremmed sprog og en fremmed kultur er en fantastisk fordel for dem.
So there has been very full cooperation with the other agencies involved in this field.
Opbygningen af europæisk enhed vil blive så meget desto nemmere, jo nemmere og mere nærliggende det er for europæerne at kommunikere med hinanden.
So far as Colombia is concerned, it was much less ser iously affected than either Costa Rica or Nicaragua.
Det er lærerens op gave i Europa at bane vejen herfor.
More importantly, the Colombian Government has not asked for assistance.
Jeg komplimenterer den udmærkede ordfører, hr. Garriga Polledo, den unge parlamentariker — ung, men ikke parlamentarisk uerfaren — med dette fremragende oplæg, han har givet os, til at fremme, udbrede og stimulere undervisningen i fællesskabs sprogene.
COCKFIELD, The Lord, Vice-President of the Com mission. — Mr President, I am most grateful to those Members of the Parliament who have expressed their appreciation of the Commission's prompt response to the request for aid from both of these countries.
Så det er vigtigt at støtte sprogundervisning, udveksling og ophold i fremmede lande. Vi må som parlamentarikere foregå med et godt eksempel.
Having said that, I must reject one or two criticisms that there had been delay in the Commission's response.
Vi må prøve på at lære hinandens sprog.
The second one came on Monday.
Kun således vil en berigende udveksling mellem Europas forskellige kulturcentre kunne jævne vejen for en styrkelse af det
Incidentally, if I may on that point reply to Mr Seal, I realize the anxiety felt by everybody in this House
Lord Cockfield, næstformand i Kommissionen. — (EN) Hr. formand, Parlamentet behandler i dag en betænkning om undervisning i EF- sprog, udarbejdet af hr. Garriga Polledo for Udvalget om Ungdom, Kultur, Uddannelse, Information og Sport.
COCKFIELD, The Lord, Vice-President of the Com mission. — Mr President, I entirely understand the point the honourable Member is making.
Vi går nu over til afstemningen.
PRESIDENT. — I put the request to the vote.
Prag (ED). — (EN) Hr. formand, jeg hilser hr. Garriga Polledos betænkning velkommen.
mission has, however, no information beyond that which appears in the newspapers.
Jeg vil blot komme med en praktisk forslag vedrørende punkt 9, der under streger behovet for at sikre en kontinuerlig undervis ning i EF-sprog fra underskolen til de højere uddannelser.
I think I must make the point that relations between Nicaragua and the United States are essentially a matter for those two countries rather than for the Commission.
Hr. Garriga Polledos betænkning kommer derfor yderst belejligt.
PRESIDENT. — The time allowed for questions to the Commission has expired.
Mine tre sønner kom i den fransksprogede børnehaveklasse ved Europaskolen i Luxembourg og den tysksprogede børnehaveklasse, da de var fem.
PRESIDENT. — The next item is the statement by the Commission on the takeover of the Royal Ordnance Factories and Austin Rover by British Aerospace. pace.
I en alder af seks talte de engelsk, fransk og tysk.
SEAL (S). — Mr President, I am very unhappy about the statement made by the Commissioner.
Det er faktisk, hvor vi bør sætte ind over for børn. Det er på den måde, de virkelig lærer sprog.
I do take the point that other firms were interested in the sale of the Royal Ordnance Factories.
Jeg håber, at vi i en senere betænkning om emnet kan tage spørgsmålet op vedrørende brugen af andre arbejdssprog i undervisningen, mens børnene er små.
Bearing that in mind and even in spite of the fact that other people could have bought it, it seems to me that the British Government has used this as a back-door way of pumping even more money into British Aerospace.
Betænkningen påpeger, at sproglig mangfoldighed er et af de rigeste aspekter af vor europæiske arv. men at den ikke må være en hindring for konkurrence, innovation og vækst.
COCKFIELD, The Lord, Vice-President of the Com mission. — With permission, Mr President, I will make the following statement.
Kommissionen deler udvalgets op fattelse af, at det nu er på tide at sætte nyt skub i Fællesskabets og medlemsstaternes bestræbelser på at forbedre kvantiteten og kvaliteten af sprogundervisningen.
The Commission will remember, of course, that an attempt was made to sell off the Rover Group very cheaply to British Aerospace and that the Commission actually stepped in on that deal.
Der bør drages fuldt udbytte af de nye kom munikationsmidler og -teknikker, som kan supplere de traditionelle undervisningsmetoder.
This to me seems to be another example of the British Government giving away the country's assets to its friends.
I særdeleshed må man bestræbe sig på at udvikle undervisningsmetoder, der er baseret på den praktiske anvendelse af sprog til videnskabelige, forretningsmæssige, tekniske og erhvervsfaglige formål.
In doing so, it subsidized the British Aerospace company to such an extent that it seems to me to constitute unfair competition. tion.
Jeg mener ikke, vi behøver at tage os særlig meget af. hvad hr. McMahon sagde.
The Commission was not officially informed of the sale of the Royal Ordnance Factories to British Aerospace in 1987.
Det Forenede Kongerige er faktisk i færd med at udvide sprogundervisningen, ikke skære ned på den, og det vil vi helt sikkert fortsætte med at gøre.
The Commission understands that the sale was not a closed sale and that other parties were free to bid for the factories. To the best of the Com mission's knowledge there is no reason to believe that the sale contained any element of State aid.
Det vil være mig en glæde at stemme for hr. Garriga Polledos udmærkede betænkning.
Even bearing in mind, therefore, the points that the Commissioner made, I would ask him if he would not accept that a billion pounds is a substantial subsidy and ask him again to look into this matter.
Arbeloa Muru (S), skriftlig. — (ES) Denne betænkning forekommer mig så vigtig, så presserende og så godt udarbejdet, at jeg, hvis det stod i min magt. ville bestemme, at den skulle være obligatorisk læsning på alle uddannelsesinstitutioner.
Against this background there would appear to be no reason for the British authorities to notify the Com mission of any impending sale of any of these assets.
Betænkningen påpeger med rette, at der på alle ni veauer bør gøres en ekstra indsats for at skabe en højere standard.
ROBERTS, Dame Shelagh (ED). — Mr President, you have ruled very recently that there were not 23 Members wishing to have a debate.
Programmer såsom ERASMUS, COMETT og YES har øget kontakterne mellem unge men nesker og dem, der har med undervisning at gøre ud over Fællesskabet.
May I ask you to ensure that Members who contribute ask a question and do not have a debate masquerading as a question.
Det er stadig en opgave for de kompetente organer i medlemsstaterne at udvikle mere effektive undervisningsmetoder.
PRESIDENT. — Ladies and gentlemen, we shall follow the same procedure as for the previous Commission statement.
Alle vi, der har lidt under manglen på sprogundervisning, er ikke de mindst interesserede i. at denne triste situation overvindes.
PRESIDENT. — Dame Shelagh, you know my form and you realize that I shall indeed keep a sharp look out for that.
Vi vil ikke opnå et forenet Europa uden en fælles indsats på dette område.
I did notice that Mr Seal needed quite a long runup to his question, but he did put it in the end.
Hvor dan kan vi skabe lige muligheder blandt alle Europas borgere?
SEAL (S). — Mr President, I don't want to ask a question.
Det er en meget vigtig opgave.
I want to ask for a debate on this statement.
Denne betænkning giver oplysning og opmuntring, den åbner veje til løsning og fortjener at blive gen nemført.
I feel that this is an important matter and, in spite of the lack of information given to us by the Commissioner, I feel it is so important that the full House ought to debate this issue.
Kommissionen vil for sit vedkommende omhyggeligt undersøge forslagene i hr. Garriga Polledos betænkning og de resultater, der er opnået gennem anvendelsen af nye undervisningsmetoder i medlemsstaterne.
McMAHON (S). — Mr President, has the Commissioner, in the course of a very busy day, read today's Financial Timesi In particular, has he read the leading article in that paper?
Fontaine (PPE), skriftlig; — (FR) Spørgsmålet om tilegnelse af fremmedsprog er så vigtigt og uopsætteligt, at vi nu efterhånden er ved at få øjnene op for det. Jeg vil da også stemme for den betænkning, som hr. Garriga Polledo i dag har fremlagt for os.
PRESIDENT. — Pursuant to Rule 56(3) Parliament can decide, on a proposal from the President, a com mittee, a political group or at least 23 Members, that the Commission statement shall be followed by a debate.
Jeg er ordføreren meget taknemmelig for at have fremhævet adskillige vigtige spørgsmål, som alle, der ønsker at bygge et Fællesskab, hvor sprog ikke længe re er en hindring for kommunikationen mellem vore borgere, men en berigelse af vor arv, må huske på.
PROUT (ED). — Mr President, I was simply going to say that my friend, Mr Seal, will not be surprised to learn that my Group would oppose such a debate.
