Kommissionens forslag til Rådets afgørelse om udvidelse af Fællesskabets garanti over for Den Europæiske Investeringsbank i tilfælde af tab i forbindelse med lån til projekter i Ungarn og Polen til også at omfatte Den Tjekkiske og Slovakiske Føderative Republik.
the proposal from the Commission to the Council (COM(90) 384 final — Doc. C3-307/9O) for a decision extending to the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic, Bulgaria and Romania the Community guarantee to the European Investment Bank against losses under loans for projects in Hungary and Poland.
Forsamlingens medlemmer vil erindre, at der sidste år fra Den Europæiske Investeringsbank blev stillet et lån på 1 mia. ECU til rådighed for Polen og Ungarn,
Members of the House will recall that last year a ECU 1 billion European Investment Bank loan facility to the countries Poland and Hungary was provided with the necessary guarantee against the Community budget.
Men vore signaler er overvældende tydelige, og vi ser frem til, at næstformand Andriessen bekræfter Kommissionens synspunkter i relation til, at under enhver fremtidig forhandling om en aftale mellem institutionerne til erstatning af den gældende og i det finansielle overslag, der skal være en del af denne interinstitutionelle aftale, skal dette hensyn klart finde udtryk.
Since then, there has quite clearly been a situation of increasing risk in relation to that sort of provision being guaranteed in that way and the increasing risk is clearly evidenced by the worsening current account position in countries such as Poland and Hungary.
Det vil ske i form af forslag fra Kommissionen om at få en regulær reserve til uforudsete udgifter på budgettet til dækning af det stigende antal hæftelser for uforudsete udgifter, der nu findes, hvis der skulle ske misbrug, enten med
Today we have a proposal from the Commission to extend the type of provision that we have already made for Poland and Hungary in the form of guarantees against the budget
Tomlinson hensyn til betaling af renter af disse lån fra Den Europæiske Investeringsbank, eller i tilfælde af at man ikke er i stand til at tilbagebetale kapitalen inden for den ved långivningen fastsatte frist.
TOMLINSON those declarations as being declarations in good faith of a future statement of intent that we will hold them to and if they do not put their statements of good faith into practice during the revision of the interinstitutional agreement and the negotiations of the financial perspective, then good faith will be a commodity that will be very hard to trade with us again in these very complicated financial matters.
Desuden bidrager hr. Tomlinsons ændringsforslag til at afhjælpe mistænkelige udeladelser og fastslår klart, at begge parter i budgetmyndigheden i over ensstemmelse med Traktaterne i fællesskab træffer beslutning.
It is proposed not only to provide the same sort of guarantee for those three countries, but to double the amount which is now guaranteed against the Community budget from the ECU 1 billion originally for Poland and Hungary, to a total of ECU 2 billion, with the additional billion being for the three new countries.
Mine damer og herrer, vi må kræve, at Kommissionen ufortøvet forelægger — jeg ved ikke om hr. Andriessen lytter til, hvad jeg siger i hovedtelefonerne, eller om han behersker spansk i tilstrækkelig grad til at følge mig direkte ... Dank u wel ...
Having given that explanation, I commend the report to the House and look forward to Vice-President An driessen confirming the good faith of the Commission which we will then judge by their future actions.
Jeg ville sige, at vi må kræve, at Kommissionen ufortøvet forelægger en betænkning, hvori der sættes tal på de eventuelle finansielle følger af den nuværende politik, og at der stilles forslag om indførelse af de nødvendige forholdsregler til at tage højde for eventuelle situationer, hvor lånene ikke tilbagebetales, enten over fællesskabsbudgettet eller via bank mekanismer uden for budgettet.
Against that background, the Budget Committee raised a number of questions in its original deliberations concerning particularly the need for a contingency reserve to be within the financial perspective should the need for a guarantee be taken up, i.e. should there be any defalcation on our loan.
Disse erklæringer findes i begrundelsen.
IN THE CHAIR: MR CAPUCHO
Colom i Naval (S). — (ES) Hr. formand, indledningsvis skal jeg sige, at Den Socialistiske Gruppe støtter konklusionerne i den foreliggende betænkning og fuldt ud tilslutter sig hr. Tomlinsons udtalel-
COLOM I NAVAL (S). — (ES) Mr President, first of all, on behalf of the Socialist Group, I should like to say that I support the conclusions reached in this report and everything that my fellow group member Mr Tomlinson has said.
Følgerne af den nuværende garantipolitik må ind tage en fremtrædende plads i den fremtidige flerårige finansielle planlægning i forbindelse med planlægningen af Fællesskabets fremtidige finansiering.
There were a number of other questions which we dealt with in our original concerns and the explanatory memorandum both lists the questions that we raised originally and the answers that I reported back to the Budget Committee.
Vi finder, at den nuværende politik er temmelig improviseret og usammenhængende, om end den er nødvendig. Vi må spørge, hvornår Den Europæiske Bank for Genopbygning og Udvikling bliver i stand til at forvalte denne opgave, så at EIB kan tage sig af de opgaver, der pålægges den i henhold til Traktaterne.
However, the most serious remain ing problem is that to which I have already referred and that is the recognition of the increasing risk that there is in this budgetary procedure, a budgetary procedure which is now, in relation to the two different reports, guaranteeing ECU 2 billion of European Investment Bank loans against a token entry, i.e. an entry in the budget for which there is no financial provision.
Har man tænkt på de konkurrenceforvridende følger — et emne, som i høj grad ligger en af kommissærerne på sinde — af ovennævnte for hold på markedet for kreditforsikringer f.eks.?
Prudent housekeeping and good budgetary manage ment has made the Budget Committee be very insistent on the need to address that question urgently.
Det ser ikke ud til, at der overhovedet tages hensyn til dette aspekt ved spørgsmålet.
We cannot discuss it in the absence of a revised financial perspective and there will not be a revised financial perspective until we have a new interinstitutional agreement.
Bistanden til landene i Mellem- og Østeuropa behandles på en improviseret måde, uden koordinering, sammenhæng eller planlægning.
Aid to the countries of Central and Eastern Europe is being dealt with in an ad hoc way, with no coordination, consistency or planning.
Det skal indrømmes, at det er en fuldstændig ny politisk situation, der udvikler sig hurtigt og med følgevirkninger af stor rækkevidde for Europas fremtid.
Granted, it is a completely new and rapidly changing political situation with tremendous implications for the future of Europe.
Men på indeværende tidspunkt kan Fællesskabets reaktion hverken være afhængig af løfter afgivet af en kommissær på gennemrejse eller af Rådets alt for hastigt indgående forpligtelser. ser.
But at such a time, the Community's responsemust not depend on promises made in passing by someCommissioner or hasty commitments entered into by the Council.
Jeg kunne sagtens formulere flere spørgsmål, men tiden er ved at løbe ud, og jeg vil gerne henlede opmærksomheden på et sidste punkt: En mere rationel bankpolitik, tilpasset den nuværende situation, må tage højde for EIB's rolle i forhold til landene i Latinamerika, Asien og Middelhavsområdet.
But we are signalling abundantly clearly, and we look forward to Vice-President Andriessen confirming the Commission's views in relation to this, that in any future negotiations for an interinstitutional agreement to replace the current one, and in the financial perspective that will be a part of that interinstitutional agreement, that concern will have to be expressed.
Man kan vist ikke sige, at den drejning, som Fællesskabets bankaktiviteter får med den nuværende politik, opretholder den nødvendige ligevægt i Fællesskabets politik over for tredjelande, hvilket kan få alvorlige følger. Visse lande, som f.eks.
That will be in the form of proposals by the Commission to get a proper contingency reserve into the budget to cover the increasing number of contingent liabilities that now exist should there be defalcation, either in relation to payment of interest on those European Investment Bank loans, or should there be an inability to repay capital within the prescribed periods laid down by the loans.
Chile, er berettiget til samme form for støtte, som den der nu ydes til landene i Østeuropa, og dog udelukkes de fra at modtage en sådan støtte; Kommissionen bør ligeledes tage dette spørgsmål op.
Ladies and gentlemen, we must call upon the Commission as a matter of urgency to draw up — I'm not sure whether Mr Andriessen is listening to me or whether he has a good enough command of Spanish to listen to me live ...
Man får det indtryk, at der indgås forpligtelser uden forudgående overvejelser over disses finansielle følger.
The report was referred back to the Committee on Budgets, but in January both the Council and the Commission presented new declarations on those matters.
Takket være Europa-Parlamentet — i særdeleshed hr. Tomlinsons pris værdige indsats — er Kommissionen og Rådet så småt ved at begynde at tage problemet i betragtning.
Those declarations are included in the explanatory memorandum, they are far from being a copper-bottomed guarantee, but in presenting this report to Parliament, I am saying that the Budget Committee has accepted
Habsburg (PPE). — (DE) Hr. formand, jeg vil også gerne en gang uden for Budgetudvalget rette en varm tak til ordføreren, hr. Tomlinson. for det kolossale arbejde, han har præsteret.
As I was saying, we must call upon the Commission as a matter of urgency to draw up a report quantifying the potential financial implications of the current policy on loans and setting out the measures that will be needed in
Hvis Kommissionen ville række ned i sit budget og bede om mere hjælp til at beskæftige ekspertisen i tænketanke eller hos sagkyndige, for at den kunne opnå dybere indsigt, er jeg sikker på, at det ville møde sympati her i huset.
COLOM I NAVAL the event of non-payment, either in terms of the Community budget or through an extra-budgetary banking mechanism.
Det var med tungt hjerte, at PPE-Gruppen tilsluttede sig forslaget i udvalget. Men — og her henvender jeg mig specielt til Kommissionen — garantier klæringen for Ungarn og Tjekkoslovakiet er en beregnelig risiko.
and this applies particularly in the case of Romania — to what extent it is actually helping to cover a financial and economic policy of which it certainly cannot be said that it deserves our confidence.
Og holder man sig for det ene øje, kan mig sige det samme for Polens vedkommende, men jeg er overordentlig bange for en garantierklæring for Rumænien.
SPENCER (ED). — Mr President, my group would like to endorse this report and although I would not wish to spare Mr Tomlinson's blushes, I would like to add to the golden words that have already enhanced his reputation.
Rumænien har ikke blot tidligere været en meget dårlig betaler — i modsætning til f.eks.
I think this report is in the great tradition of the civic politics and correct and trenchant parliamentary practice of his forebears in Birmingham.
Ungarn, der har betalt tilbage til sidste blodsdråbe.
So I have no more to add to his technical report.
Så sent som i denne uge fik jeg bekræftelse ikke blot fra mange venner i Bulgarien, men også fra Bulgariens præsident, Sjelevov, om, at situationen virkelig er desperat i landet.
The implications of the current policy on guarantees should be a major element in future multiannual financial planning, in the context of the future financing of the Community.
Der er kun lidt eller ingen mad, ingen tøj og fem timers køer for basale varer, som vi alle tager for givet her, såsom mælk og brød.
It seems to us that the current policy, while necessary, is somewhat improvised and inconsistent.
Der er ingen tvivl i mit sind om, at lån, der stilles til rådighed for projekter i Bulgarien, vil bidrage til at mildne, hvad der er ved at blive en desperat situa tion.
One wonders, however, when the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development will start formulating such policies and leave the EIB to concentrate on the objectives assigned to it by the Treaties.
At give lån garanterer ikke, at de, der i alvorligste grad trænger til hjælp, også får den.
Has any thought been given to the distortion of competition — a subject one of our Commissioners is so concerned about — which this could create on the credit guarantee market, for example ?
Vil Kommissionen venligst aflægge beretning over for Parlamentets Bulgarien-delegation om arten af disse lån, inden de formelt bevilges?
This aspect of the matter does not seem to have been taken into account.
Derfor vil jeg — selv om vi tilslutter os betænkningen, fordi der i grunden ikke er andre muligheder — meget indstændigt anmode Kommissionen om at være yderst forsigtig med Rumænien, om at gøre alt for at bremse, for at udelukke disse for os faktisk meget store risici.
I could ask more questions, but time is running short and I should like to make one final point: a more rational banking policy geared to present circumstances would have to look at this role of the EIB in terms of the Latin American, Asian and Mediterranean countries.
Vi må ikke glemme, at intet er mere risikofyldt end en garantierklæring, for vi ved ikke hvornår og af hvem garantien vil blive afkrævet os, og — ganske særligt i Rumæniens tilfælde — i hvilket omfang det faktisk bidrager til at føre en finans- og økonomipolitik, hvorom vi bestemt ikke kan sige, at den fortjener vor tillid.
I do not think we can say that the approach currently being taken to banking activities in the Community maintains the balance which is necessary in our policy towards third countries, and this could have serious repercussions. There are some countries, such as Chile, which deserve the same aid that is being given to the countries of Eastern Europe, and yet they are excluded from aid of this kind.
Spencer (ED). — (EN) Hr. formand, min gruppe vil gerne tilslutte sig betænkningen, og selv om jeg nødig vil bidrage til hr. Tomlinsons rødmen, vil jeg gerne komme med tilføjelser til de gyldne ord, der allerede har forstørret hans ry.
That reluctance does not flow from a natural refusal to offer information to Members, rather at times I think it flows from the fact that the Commission is aware that it has only a limited amount of expertise in the whole new and tangled web of Central and Eastern Europe.
Jeg mener, at denne betænkning er i den store tradition for borgerlig politik og retter op på hans Birmingham-forgængeres skarpe parlamentariske praksis.
It must be very difficult for the Commission sensitively to monitor, assess and follow up what is happening in these different and totally sovereign states that now face us to the East.
Jeg har altså ikke mere at føje til hans tekniske betænkning.
If the Commission were to reach into its budget and ask for more help in employing the expertise of think tanks or experts in order to obtain a deeper insight, I am sure it would find sympathy in this House.
Andriessen, næstformand i Kommissionen. — (NL) Hr. formand, jeg vil begynde med at sige, at jeg er meget taknemmelig for den konstruktive måde, hvorpå Parlamentet har reageret på forslaget om at udvide låneaktiviteten i Den Europæiske Investeringsbank til de lande, der her i dag er til diskussion. Jeg ved, at det er en sag, der medfører risici.
HABSBURG (PPE). — (DE) Mr President, I should like first of all to add my sincere thanks from outside the Committee on Budgets to our rapporteur Mr Tomlinson for the tremendous work which he has done.
Jeg vil ikke lade der herske nogen som helst tvivl om dette.
In committee, the Group of the European People's Party voted in favour of the proposals with a heavy heart.
Kommissionen er fuldt ud villig hertil.
However — and I turn here in particular to the Commission — providing guarantees for Hungary and Czechoslovakia is a calculable risk.
Det, jeg gerne vil udtrykke ud fra min erfaring i REX-Udvalget, er, at vi ofte føler, at Kommissionen er utilbøjelig til at give os enkeltheder om sine planer, hensigter eller budgetter.
RAWLINGS (ED). — Mr President, I commend Mr Tomlinson on this very timely report.
Denne uvilje udspringer ikke fra en naturlig nægtelse af at give medlemmerne oplysninger, men jeg tror snarere, at den til tider udspringer af, at Kommissionen er klar over, at den kun råder over begrænset ekspertise vedrørende hele det nye og komplicerede netværk i Øst- og Centraleuropa.
Only this week I had confirmation not only from many friends in Bulgaria but also from President Zhelevof Bulgaria that conditions are really desperate in that country.
Det må være meget vanskeligt for Kommissionen på fornuftig måde at holde øje med, vurdere og opfølge det, der sker i disse forskellige og fuldkommen suveræne stater, vi nu står over for i Øst.
There is little or no food, no clothes and five-hour queues for basics that we all take for granted here, such as milk and bread.
Tag for eksempel de tre lande, der tilfældigvis er samlet i denne betænkning: Tjekkerne og slovakerne der har fuldført deres overgang til demokrati i et helt åbent system, bulgarerne der har gjort en begyndelse, og rumænerne der efter min mening stadig er forvirrede over tvetydigheden i en revolution, der mere var et kup.
There is no doubt in my mind that making loans available for projects in Bulgaria will help alleviate what is becoming a desperate situation. Granting loans does not guarantee that those who are the most severely in need of help will receive.
Jeg formoder, at Kommissionen endnu ikke har udstyret sig med et
Will the Commission please report to our Bulgarian Delegation in the European Parliament on the nature of these loans before they are formally granted ?
Jeg mener således, at dette er det allervigtigste, som jeg har at sige her i dag, men jeg vil alligevel komme ind på nogle få elementer i debatten.
I would therefore urge the Commission — even if we vote in favour of this report, simply because there is no alternative — to be extremely cautious with regard to Romania, to do all it can to slow things down, in order to eliminate what are in fact very considerable risks for us.
Lad mig allerførst sige, at vi håber, at Den Europæiske Bank for Genopbygning og Udvikling vil være operationel fra det tidlige forår. Det forventes at ville ske omkring april.
Let us not forget that providing a guarantee is the riskiest business of all, since we do not know when and by whom this guarantee will be called in from us, or —
Naturligvis rådspørges Europa-Parlamentet, når det drejer sig om et anliggende inden for rammerne af artikel 235, og det er jo tilfældet her.
I do not think it would enhance the credibility of the European Community to make the money for his very urgent food aid available to the countries concerned in April or May. Then it would probably be too late.
PHARE, aktioner gennem denne genopbygnings- og udviklingsbank, aktioner fra IMFs og Verdensbankens side, aktioner fra medlemslande, aktioner udført inden for rammerne af G-24.
And finally, because this is a formal proposal, I must make one comment on two amendments tabled to the preambule of our proposal.
Lad os ikke glemme én ting, alle beløb, der hidtil er blevet sat til side til disse lande, er fastsat før Golfkrisen.
Of course, on an issueunder Article 235, which is the case, the European Parliament is consulted.
Det vil sige, at hele problematikken, der for disse landes vedkommende skyldes Golfkrisen de facto ikke er indeholdt i vore tal.
But to couch it in such formal terms as happens in the fourth recital presents institutional difficulties.
Jeg udelukker på ingen måde, at der måske snarere før end siden skal tales om spørgsmålet om, hvordan disse beløb kræver en justering.
The same is true of amendment No 2 on the fifth recital, which incidentally I consider is less important because Parliament will, I hope, decidetoday to approve the ratification of the treaty with Romania and meet the conditions laid down there.
Tomlinson (S), ordfører. — (EN) Hr. formand, der var en ubehagelig brod i halen dér: »Indvendinger af institutionelle grunde i relation til præambelen«.
TOMLINSON (S), rapporteur. — Mr President, therewas a nasty sting in the fail there — 'Objections on institutional grounds in relation to the preamble'.
Jeg vil henlede Kommissionens opmærksomhed på, at i det forslag, vi skal stemme om i morgen aften, opfordres Rådet i punkt 3 til at underrette Europa-Parlamentet, hvis det ikke agter af følge den af Parlamentet godkendte tekst.
I would draw the Commission's attention to the fact that in the motion we will be voting on tomorrow night, paragraph 3 calls on the Council to notify Parliament should it intend to depart from the text approved by Parliament.
Punkt 4 beder om, at vi bliver hørt igen, hvis Rådet agter at foretage væsentlige ændringer.
Paragraph 4 asks for us to be consulted again should the Council intend to make substantial modifications.
Vi har hørt, hvad De sagde om betydningen af, at det går stærkt.
I really think that is the most important thing I have to say to the House today, but I shall take up some points made in the debate.
Svaret ligger i Deres egne hænder.
It is expected to start in about April.
Forfølg Deres institutionelle mål og påfør Dem selv en forsinkelse. Eller lyt til Parlamentets vilje, hvis De ønsker at få sagen igennem i en fart, men tænk på at der allerede er en hel del mistanke i Parlamentet, når Kommissionen taler om, at den agter at undersøge, hvordan pengene omdirigeres.
We view this action of the European Investment Bank as a supplement to other actions in the region, such as PHARE, actions of this reconstruction and development bank, actions by the IMF and the World Bank, actions by the Member States, actions undertaken by the G-24.
Jeg må sige, at det lyder som en trussel mod vor budgetkompetence og vore institutionelle interesser.
It is a total complex of financial actions aimed at different purposes which is intended to help these countries overcome the problems in adapting to the changed situation.
Vi må derfor have en balance i argumenterne om dette.
Let us not forget one thing, namely that all amounts spent so far on these countries were approved before the Gulf crisis.
Hvis vi accepterer nødvendigheden af tempo, henleder vi Kommissionens særlige opmærksomhed på især punkterne 3 og 4 i beslutningen.
In other words all the problems facing these countries which are due to the Gulf crisis are de facto not included in our figures.
De siger, hvad de betyder, og de betyder, hvad de siger.
I am quite convinced that sooner rather than later we shall have to decide how these amounts can be adjusted.
Om Rumænien pr. definition er en større risiko end et andet land, ved jeg ikke.
The answer is in your own hands.
Landets eksterne gæld er i hvert fald ikke i overensstemmelse med dette forventningsmønster.
Pursue your institutional objections and inflict delay upon yourself.
Men lad mig fortælle Dem, at når det drejer sig om en vurdering af risiciene, ligger ansvaret først og fremmest hos den bank, der foretager investeringer, og at disse investeringer pr. definition anses for at være rentable investeringer.
Listen to the will of Parliament if you want to get the thing through speedily, bearing in mind that there is a great deal of parliamentary suspicion already with the Commission talking about how they propose to examine just how money is to be rescheduled.
Jeg har selv før i tiden talt med Banken om denne slags aktiviteter, og jeg kan forsikre Dem om, at Den Europæiske Investeringsbank, når det gælder risikovurdering, opfører sig som enhver anden bank og det vil sige: holder meget nøje øje med de risici, der tages i forbindelse med nærmere bestemte transaktioner.
That, I have to say, sounds like a threat to our budgetary competencies and our institutional interest.
