Vi har ganske vist lyttet med stor interesse på kommis særens meddelelse om, at Kommissionen har beslut tet at tage visse konkrete initiativer, men disse foreligger ikke, og hvad angår deres retslige gyldig hed, finder jeg alt meget uvist.
I have studied solemn declarations a good deal and I find that there is not a single writer who regards them as sources of law, and it seems that on the day after this memorable solemnity, for all practical purposes, that is, for the purposes of the real life of European workers, nothing will change, everything will go on just as it did the day before.
Vernier (RDE). — (FR) Fru formand, mine damer og herrer, Alain Plaisant, lektor ved et gymnasium i Douai, lancerede for nogle uger siden denne formulering: intet socialt fremskridt uden økonomisk fremgang, men heller ingen effektiv økonomi uden social samhørighed.
I congratulate Mrs Buron on her very comprehensive report and I congratulate Ms Papandreou on her perseverance in the presence of the Council's watercarriers through the last six months.
Denne formulering overtager jeg, for det store indre marked vækker afgjort store forhåbninger blandt de europæiske folk, men det giver også anledning til bekymring og foruroligelse. gelse.
The watercarriers are the people who keep diluting the Social Charter month by month, week by week, in their undemocratic meetings.
I stedet for at imødegå social dumping begunstiger den denne i Fællesskabet med artikel 5 og 6.
The draft which we are unofficially acquainted with does neither of these things.
Der er ingen bestemmelser gældende for arbejdstagere fra tredjelande, og det er også vel kendt, at mange ting hører under landenes nationale lovgivning, hvilket vi allerede vidste og ikke behøvede en socialpagt for at få at vide.
The fundamental rights are already in the Charter of the Council of Europe and in all the various universal declarations of rights signed by the Community countries and formulated much more clearly and compellingly than here.
Jeg selv er ikke tilhænger af et varernes, markeder nes og de handlendes Europa, som lader de svageste personer og regioner sejle deres egen sø. Markedets Europa går imidlertid fremad med stormskridt tak ket være artikel 100 i Traktaten og proceduren med flertalsafgørelser.
The opinion by the Committee on Women's Rights was not considered by the Social Affairs Committee because of lack of time.
Samtidig bevæger det sociale Europa sig kun fremad med små skridt på grund af artikel 118 i Traktaten, der på det sociale område fortsat kræver enstemmighed. En institutionel reform med henblik på at fremskynde det sociale Europa er påkrævet og presserende.
And there is nothing about harmonization, since most of the articles, including those read this morning by Mr Soisson, state that they are subject to the detailed provisions of each country and in Title 2 of the Charter the safeguarding of social rights is entrusted to the Member States in accordance with their national practices.
På denne baggrund mener jeg, at fru Burons betænkning indeholder mange positive kommentarer i de fleste af punkterne, og derfor vil vi stemme for den.
I consider it regrettable that the social and economic rights of women, who make up over 50% of our population, and over 40% of the workforce, command so little attention in the whole Social Charter debate.
Ud fra denne betragtning mener jeg, at Parlamentet bør koordinere sit arbejde med det arbejde, der finder sted i dag inden for Den Europæiske Faglige Samarbejdsorganisation samt inden for fagforeningerne i de enkelte lande, så dette initiativ ikke går tabt, men får et reelt lovresultat, og det indre marked kan få en social dimension i praksis og ikke kun i teorien.
While I welcome the modest references to women's rights as contained in the Commission's working document, adopted yesterday, which amounted to a third new action programme for women for 1990 to 1995, a draft directive on protection of pregnant women in the workplace, legislative proposals for creches and help for women to enable them to participate in the
Jeg vil tilføje, at det sociale Europa er en social, men også økonomisk nødvendighed.
But did not President Mitterrand and other distinguished socialists assure us that if we did not closely harmonize workers' rights we should be faced with that wretched social dumping ?
Jeg bor i Douai i en grænseregion i det nordlige Frankrig.
So what are we saying ?
Transportselskaberne frygter konkurrencen fra transportselskaber, der ikke er underlagt samme regler, navnlig hvad angår chaufførernes arbejds- og hvileperioder.
We are saying, Madam President, that we cannot come to the end of three successive socialist Presidencies without offering anything to the workers and then offer them a
Pacheco Herrera (ARC). — (ES) Fru formand, mine damer og herrer, højtidelige velmenende erklæ ringer begynder så småt at kede os her i Parlamentet. tet.
Charter which is only an illusion, for which I think Parliament ought to refuse to accept responsibility.
tede, også som billede, end de andre. Stadig inden for vort Fællesskab bliver borgere fra lande uden for Fællesskabet plaget på en farlig måde, idet deres grundlæggende rettigheder ikke bliver overholdt trods de gældende love.
While the economic, technical and fiscal aspects of the building of Europe are being put in place at breakneck speed, and via binding legal instruments to boot, the social aspects are viewed as secondary by comparison and progress is appallingly slow.
Alt for ofte sker det, at borgere fra Den Tredje Verden, hvis retlige situation er i orden, må betale en andel for at opnå de dokumenter, de har ret til.
Quite obviously, this situation is unacceptable.
Udnyttelsen af deres arbejdskraft og uværdige bolig- og støtteforhold får dem til at stå uforstående over for, hvad den vestlige civilisation egentlig betyder.
Economic and social cohesion is the instrument via which the North-South divide in the Community can be bridged and the differing levels of development brought to convergence, and if we are really sincere about achieving these objectives we must put all our efforts from this moment on into speeding up the creation of a genuinely social Europe.
Der findes nu allerede en europæisk socialpagt udarbejdet inden for rammerne af Det Europæiske Råd og ratificeret af flertallet af medlemsstaterne.
ANDREWS (RDE). — Madam President, it is with a great sense of sadness that I must point to an appalling omission from the draft Social Charter.
Hvilke resultater har det medført? Efter vores mening ingen.
It is the total neglect of the homeless.
Fordi medlemsstaterne ikke sikrer dens bindende karakter.
In the Europe of the 1990s there should no longer be homeless people — tramps, beggars and vagrants.
Vi kræver et detaljeret lovgivningsprogram samt en præcis tidsplan, så at de sociale rettigheder effektivt sikres.
No one should have to sleep curled up under damp blankets, in cardboard boxes or abandoned cars, in doorways, alleyways or tube stations.
Vores gruppe mener, at når det økonomiske område fungerer efter fællesskabsregler, kan det sociale ikke fortsat være underlagt nationale regler.
Madam President, if we in Parliament genuinely wish to target on these objectives it would be very seriously amiss of us to accept even the slightest damaging modification of the draft Social Charter submitted by the Executive Commission.
Hvis det fortsat skal forholde sig sådan, så lad os klart sige til den offentlige mening, at vi bevæger os frem mod virkeliggørelsen af et stort marked og ikke opbygningen af et fælles socioøkonomisk område, hvor socialpolitikken indgår som en uomgængelig del.
Quite the opposite, we have a duty, to the electors who voted for us and put us here, at least, to use the resolution tabled by the Committee on Social Affairs, Employment and the Working Environment as a means of improving the Commission's draft of the Charter as much as we can.
Hr. Delors erklærede for nylig, at ud over Den Økonomiske og Monetære Union var Kommis sionens første prioritet at gennemføre det indre marked i 1993.
The European federation of national organizations working with the homeless was established in Brussels in January of this year and represented a first step.
Jeg vil gerne sige følgende til hr. Delors: Uden social dimension og økonomisk samhørighed ønsker vi ikke et stort marked i 1993.
I hope and insist that Parliament stands by me in urging the Commission to guarantee continued funding for the federation next year.
Vi ønsker heller ikke Den Økonomiske og Monetære Union, hvis man dermed uddyber de store forskelle mellem regionerne og fremmer social dumping.
Correct me if I am wrong but did not the Commission originally give an assurance that funding for the federation would be permanent?
De små virksomheder bør have større muligheder for at antage arbejdskraft direkte, og der bør være en større tilskyndelse til erhvervsuddannelse og deltidsarbejde.
Without denigrating the positions they have taken or wishing to engage in repetition, I would like to draw attention to three points in particular.
For øvrigt bør der være højere aldersgrænser ved offentlige udvælgelsesprøver, ligesom det er nødvendigt at kontrollere, om ikke de på arbejdsformidlingskontorerne indskrevne, der flere gange siger nej til en tilbudt stilling, udelukkende gør dette af materielle grunde, det vil sige for i hemmelighed at nyde godt af statslig støtte.
Firstly, to the fact, and this is important, that unless the declaration by the Council is integrated into the Community's legal system, thus allowing redress through the courts, there is no good ground for believing that the principles of the Charter will actually be implemented.
Der er grund til at ofre større opmærksomhed på de ældre og bistandsordningerne for dem.
If we leave the implementation of the Charter to the discretion of the national governments we shall, on account of the socioeconomic system which operates in the majority of the Member States, in effect be undermining and renouncing our own Declaration.
For at komme frem til en reel ligestilling mellem mænd og kvinder på arbejdsmarkedet er der helt fra underskolen behov for at omdanne uddannelsessystem og kultur med dette for øje, noget der også burde tales mere om i vore dokumenter.
The Commission may say that the federation has been told that its future funding can come from the Third European Programme to Combat Poverty which begins in 1990 but the programme regulations require national governments to approve specific anti-poverty projects.
Af de oven for anførte grunde er det en meget alvorlig sag, at den af Rådet af socialministre ved tagne fællesskabspagt om de grundlæggende arbejds markedsmæssige og sociale rettigheder er et tilbage skridt i forhold til Kommissionens oprindelige tekst.
But it is common-sensical, Madam President, because the objective of bringing the varying levels of development in the Community to convergence and of bridging the North-South divide demands that social dumping be halted.
De europæiske borgere er trætte af i Fællesskabet at blive betragtet mere som forbrugere eller egentlige varer end som virkelige borgere.
In fact, during both of its terms in the presidency the Greek Government did strive towards that end.
Muscardini (NI). — (IT) Hr. formand, der kan ikke være nogen social beskyttelse, når et samfund præget af forbrugerisme og materialisme går med til kun at betragte menneskene som produktionsfaktorer og ikke som dem, for hvis skyld produktionen finder sted.
PAGOROPOULOS (S). — (GR) Madam President, as I said in my speech on 12 September, and as Parliament overall has made clear on numerous occasions, the single internal market will be a failure unless the requirements of Article 130A on economic and social cohesion are pursued rigorously with no deviation.
For de unge er det nødvendigt at oprette obligatoriske erhvervsuddannelseskurser samt at tilskynde dem til igen at vende sig til håndværksfagene.
Thirdly, we must dig our heels in on two main requirements which are essential for the retention of balance.
Vi ser også inden for Fællesskabet, at bor gerne i de mere velhavende stater er bedre beskyt
I do not think I need to say anything more about the necessity for that.
Muscardini tilbage på det punkt på trods af økonomisk rigdom. Det kan man ikke være bekendt.
PAGOROPOULOS advance of technology it will get worse unless radical steps are taken immediately.
derfor Rådet til, at foranstaltningerne til fordel for de handicappede i Fællesskabet bliver gennemført hurtigt og på ensartet måde med de nødvendige, mest avancerede tekniske midler.
The second requirement is to find ways, with the requisite resources, of helping the small and medium-sized businesses which constitute the backbone of economic growth in the poorer countries of the South to survive after 31 December 1992.
At beskytte arbejdet vil sige at beskytte den menneskelige værdighed.
Parliament has steadfastly campaigned for is in separable from the Europe of the single market, and the European People's Party fully recognizes the great benefits that will emanate from the implementation of the Single Act in all its extent.
Derfor kan det forslag, vi har til behandling, ikke forringes i en anden instans.
Development based, of course, on respect for the rights of the individual and for the environment.
Vi håber, at handlingsprogrammet kan opfylde nogle af de krav, jeg har nævnt her.
I refrain from going any deeper into that particular subject, though.
Det, vi satte ind på, var en social statut, hvor de europæiske borgeres sociale rettigheder er forankret.
In winding up I call on everyone in this Parliament to strive with all their might for a genuine social Europe.
Europæisk integration kan og må efter kristelig-demokratisk opfattelse ikke ses løsrevet fra et socialt Europa.
For a Europe of the peoples as opposed to a Europe which merely caters for big business.
Det er ikke ret længe siden, at Euro-Barometer angav resultatet af en undersøgelse i medlemsstaterne om det ønskelige i en sådan socialpagt.
The fact that the Council has not been bold enough so far to approve a Social Charter to the European Parliament's liking comes as no surprise to us.
Det er kun 8%, der er imod et sådant foretagende. I andre lande ligger udfaldet på samme niveau.
Nor does it mark the end of civilization as we know it.
Det ønske, der fremgår af en sådan undersøgelse, om at bygge videre på en social samhørighed i Europa, har Kommissionen ikke efterkommet tilstrækkeligt.
But that does not mean that we are stuck with an immoveable situation, because the conditions that are now being created by the gradual adoption of the internal market rules will impel us along the desired social policy path of their own accord.
Rønn (S). — Fru formand, det har fra flere sider været påpeget, at sikring af lønmodtagernes faglige og sociale rettigheder skal ske sideløbende med etableringen af EF's åbne, indre marked.
HUGHES (S). — Madam President, we have had a great deal of talk in this House over the months and years on the need for worker participation, involvement and consultation, but I think today's debate and the debate on the Social Charter in recent weeks have highlighted the distance we need to go in terms of consultation involvement for this Parliament.
Jeg mener, at det er en absolut forudsætning — og det haster — hvis arbejdstagerne skal bevare troen på EF.
It is quite pathetic. Mr De Rossa said earlier that this Parliament had been held in contempt by the other institutions.
Arbejdstagerne skal have garanti for, at de opnåede faglige rettigheder på arbejdsmarkedet ikke forringes.
I agree absolutely. We have had the Commission produce two drafts of the Social Charter without involving Parliament; we have had the Council dictate a further weaker draft, the Commission, in a very weak-kneed fashion, has allowed that weaker draft to be imposed upon it, and has now come forward with an action programme that we have not seen, based upon that weaker Social Charter.
Det må også være sådan, at der altid kan ske forbedringer uden begrænsninger fra EF.
It is entirely unacceptable, Madam President.
Lønmodtagernes rettigheder skal kunne sikres enten ved overenskomster, som der er tradition for i Danmark, eller ved lovgivning.
The Social Charter presented by the Commission, with its non-binding nature, is not the one our group was looking for.
Vi ønsker bindende regler og flertalsafgørelser, så alle lønmodtageres faglige og sociale rettigheder i hele EF kan sikres på et stadigt stigende niveau.
But it is without doubt a first step towards the creation of a Europe with an increasingly stronger social and moral base.
Derved kan der komme mere fart over udviklingen, og et enkelt land kan ikke være bremseklods. Vi vil nemlig godt være med til at sikre både de engelske arbejdere og borgerne i det sydlige Europa bedre løn og arbejdsforhold.
The trimming down of rights by the Council clearly runs counter to the final objective, and, in my view, is indicative of an exaggerated fear on the part of the Member States as to where the strengthening of the social forces envisaged by the Charter might ultimately lead.
Det vil mindske risikoen for social dumping. Et godt ar bejdsmiljø skal være indbygget i maskiner og produkter.
We have also seen the Council, of course, prepared to attempt to weaken the Charter, to do deals for progress in other areas.
Det må garanteres, at fremmede virksomheder overholder overenskomsterne i det land eller i den region, hvor de udfører en given aktivitet, også selv om der er tale om midlertidig beskæftigelse.
I hope they have learnt that there is no point in trying to do any deals with Mrs Thatcher, because that will simply result in a lack of progress on all fronts, particularly on the social front.
Lønmodtagerne skal også have medbestemmelse med hensyn til ny teknologi og ret til koncernfagligt samarbejde på tværs af landegrænser betalt af ar bejdsgiverne.
It is pleasing that the current presidency will be ending its term of office with a declaration expressing the desire of the Community partners to work towards a social Europe via an action programme of implementing initiatives to be submitted by the Commission.
Uddannelse er også vigtig i forbindelse med bekæmpelse af arbejdsløsheden. EF's skandale er 16 mio. arbejdsløse medborgere, og det på trods af økonomisk vækst i de fleste lande.
Most important of all, however, it will update the operation of employment and vocational training policy in the Member States and extend programmes already operating in this sector.
Formandskabets stræben mod en bred enighed har ydermere udvandet den politiske betydning af denne pagt.
Are we simply going to bleat about this or are we going to use the powers that are open to us ?
Vi er da også af den opfattelse, at det ville have været bedre først at forelægge en solid tekst, der så ville have haft større politisk betydning. I Udvalget om Sociale Anliggender og Beskæftigelse og ligeledes i Parlamentet har vi som kristelig demokrater fremlagt et stort antal forslag, der kunne bringe dette sociale Europa tættere på.
We do have powers. We can, for example, dismiss the Commission if we feel that they have held us in contempt; and that is for the Groups to decide.
Vi går ud fra, at Råd og Kommission også efterkommer Europa-Parlamentets ønsker.
I would point to an amendment that I tabled to Mrs Buron's report.
Det forventer vi støtte til, så meget desto mere som den måde, hvorpå socialpagten nu er kommet i stand — Parlamentet har overhovedet ikke været medinddraget — rent proce duremæssigt er uacceptabel for os.
What it says is that we reserve the right to make our agreement to measures in the business, financial and economic fields, conditional on the content, legally binding nature and pace of introduction of measures contained in the action programme.
Formanden for Socialministerrådet siger helt stolt, at der har været samråd.
We have got to decide, Madam President, whether we really say what we mean and do what we say.
Der er brug for investeringer både i den offentlige og i den private sektor, og der må landene yde efter deres økonomiske styrke. Des værre ser vi jo et enkelt land, som også holder sig
GIANNAKOU-KOUTSIKOU(PPE). — (GR) Madam President, the social Europe which the European

of fixed conditions and rules.
Elmalan (CG). — (FR) Fællesskabets aktuelle politik til forberedelse af enhedsmarkedet medfører store farer for arbejdstagerne.
This Charter is a necessary and even indispensable development, but it still falls short of what is needed, and the EPP Group is anxious to drive that home this moring.
Den frie bevægelighed for mennesker kan sammen med den frie bevægelighed for kapital føre til større udbytning og usikkerhed i ansættelsen.
Our fellow citizens are conscious of a risk of potentially dangerous uncoupling between the progress of the single European market and social progress.
Man kan ikke analysere socialpagten i denne økonomiske sammenhæng.
It is also true that there are fears and risks of social dumping.
Realiteten er, at der er meget stor arbejdsløshed, og at usikkerhed i ansættelsen bliver mere og mere almindelig, det er finansen over for arbejdstagernes krav.
The Charter demonstrates that a will to act exists at the highest level; we are not going to underestimate the significance of that.
For at skabe en virkelig socialpolitik må de økono miske beslutninger bringes i overensstemmelse med socialpolitikken, hvis der skal ske et virkeligt frem skridt for arbejdstagernes rettigheder i alle Fælles skabets lande.
The second reason why the Charter is useful is that it is also true, as the social history of our countries shows, that social progress is brought about not only by legislation but also, in our countries of democratic discussion and debate, by a process of contagion, by the progress of ideas, by negotiation and sometimes by conflict.
Dette sker ved at forsvare og forbedre de nationale rettigheder og organisere en international solidaritet i kampen for at fremme de konkrete mål for en differentieret udvikling af de sociale rettigheder i hvert enkelt fællesskabsland.
The Social Charter, its revision and the annual debate we are being offered, and the transparency it will bring regarding the social situations in our regions and Member States can, here again, keep the debate moving forward.
Nianias (RDE). — (GR) Hr. formand, socialpagten er et væsentligt fremskridt, ikke så meget på grund af bestemmelserne heri, men fordi det er endnu et positivt skridt hen imod skabelsen af den fælleseuropæiske bevidsthed, som vi ønsker, at borgerne i de forskellige stater skal have.
McCUBBIN (S). — Madam President, I feel it is necessary to illustrate to the House why many of us feel so strongly about the lack of legally binding employ ment regulations in the Social Charter as published.
Socialpagten skaber denne bevidsthed, og det samme gør fru Burons betænkning.
The workforce in the United Kingdom has been used by the new liberals in power there as guinea pigs for them to conduct their experiment in, as they call it, 'freeing up the labour market'.
Arbejdstagerne i hele Europa ser nu, at der findes en institution eller forskellige institutioner, som kender til og beskæftiger sig med deres problemer uden at betragte dem blot som redskaber for økonomien.
The ability to negotiate a good contract depends on the relative strengths of those entering into it. In other words, how badly does one party need to sell and, conversely, how badly does the other party need to buy ?
Vi glæder os altså over dette det nye, enige Europas skridt mod social retfærdighed, men det har ingen større indflydelse på løsningen af de europæiske borgeres og arbejdstageres problemer. Ingen kan være udvidende om de åbenlyse vanskeligheder, der er forbundet med forsøget på at udforme en social pagt, som kan anvendes overalt, og som har de samme gunstige konsekvenser for alle arbejdstagere, alle borgere og alle regioner i Europa.
In an industrial wage society the worker always needs to sell his or her labour but a large employer can decide as and when to buy it. The labour market is not a normal market.
Men Rådets er katastrofalt.
But this is still not enough.
