Vi mener, at vort forslag om minimumsbestemmelser for hviletid passer bedre inden for rammerne af det konkrete direktiv.
However, Mr Matutes did not say, and I would like the Council's representative to comment on, whether the EEC and its Presidency intend to adopt any initiative to deal with the associated ecological shock and terror ism ?
von der Vring (S). — (DE) Fru formand, nu hvor vi har truffet beslutning om nedsættelse af arbejdstiden, kan vi ikke længere høre på så mange stemmeforklaringer. Det strider imod vores beslutning.
WOHLFART. — (FR) I agree with the honourable Member; these are very interesting questions and provide real food for thought.
For at svare hr. Patterson, har jeg ikke myndighed til at trække et ændringsforslag tilbage, som mit udvalg har vedtaget — for øvrigt imod min vilje — da der er tale om en efterkontrol, som undersøger, om et ændringsforslag er i overensstemmelse med retsgrundlaget.
GUTIÉRREZ DIAZ (GUE). — (ES) Thank you for the information you give, Mr President, on a question affecting not only the Gulf, which is important in itself, but also the common heritage of mankind, namely the ecological balance.
Jeg har ganske vist nogle forbehold — og det vil jeg gerne sige — i forbindelse med en række ændringsforslag, men jeg ville også gerne præcisere, at jeg i egenskab af ordfører for dette udvalg loyalt har meddelt Præsidiet, hvilke holdninger der har været i udvalget.
But I still have to say that these questions are outside the context of the question your Spanish colleague has raised here.
Jeg kan ikke sige mere om det i dag.
PRESIDENT. — Question No 4, by Mrs Pollack (H-0041/91)
Men jeg vil appellere til den enkeltes ansvarsfølelse.
Subject: Visa status of refugees visiting France
Tomlinson (S). — (EN) Fru formand, jeg vil gerne rose hr. Zeiler for de erklæringer, han her kom med. Jeg vil minde Parlamentet om, at vi havde et

Cassidy (ED). — (EN) Fru formand, i et forfængeligt håb om at appellere til andre medlemmers bedre
Is the Council aware of the immense bureaucratic hurdles placed by France in the way of refugees resident in other Community countries if they want to visit France and what steps are being taken by the Council to ask France to change its restrictive practices before the end of 1992?
Cassidy jeg trækker jeg min anmodning om at afgive stemmeforklaring tilbage.
Community to find the most coherent approach in this matter, because we all want to promote free movement of persons and any related matters before 1 January 1993.
Den Socialistiske Gruppe indtager en holdning, som ikke deles af nogen socialistiske regering i Det Europæiske Fællesskab, og heller ikke af det socialistiske kommissionsmedlem hér i Parlamentet, således som vi netop har hørt det! Den Socialistiske Gruppe udøver demagogi i stedet for politik!
WOHLFART, President-in-Office of the Council. — (FR) Mr President, I think there has already been a discussion this morning, which is going to continue tomorrow, regarding various aspects of the free movement of persons, notably visa problems and immigration policy.
Dury (S). — (FR) Fru formand, jeg vil komme med et skriftligt indlæg.
HABSBURG (PPE). — (FR) Mr Representative of the Council, you have just mentioned the conference that is due to take place in May.
Der var tale om en sag, som er typisk for et foretagende, der kunne have brug for en europæisk juridisk ramme, som var overordnet de modstridende bestemmelser.
Could the Council consider the creation of a real European passport which could be given to all Europeans, so that nonCommunity Europeans at least can move freely around the Community ?
Men jeg vil gerne sige, at jeg i stedet for at bruge tre minutter, og måske besvære mine kolleger, vil komme med mine argumenter skriftligt.
That would already be an improvement and will do away with red tape that we would not otherwise be able to prevent.
Salisch (S). — (DE) Fru formand, som repræsentant for Den Socialistiske Gruppe vil jeg gerne komme med en personlig bemærkning.
PRESIDENT. — As the author is not present, Question No 5 will be answered in writing. '
Brok (PPE). — (DE) Fru formand, kære kolleger, den gode vilje er ofte det godes fjende. Det kan man konstatere her.
POLLACK. — (S) I am grateful for the President-in-Office's reply. I am sure he is glad to move away from the Gulf crisis.
Ingen af de væsentlige forslag har her opnået blot tilnærmelsesvis 260 stemmer og har heller ikke ved andenbehandlingen nogen mulighed for at opnå 260 stemmer.
I have made representations to the French Government about this particular problem and had a totally unsatisfactory reply from the French Minister.
Den Socialistiske Gruppe har både i udvalget og ved forberedelsen af dette plenarmøde vægret sig ved at optage forhandlinger om kompromisløsninger.
The French Government has introduced very difficult restrictions ever since 1986 regarding the position of refugees.
Heller ikke ordførerne fik mulighed for at stille ændringsforslag til kompro-
I have some constituents in Britain who have been here since 1987.
Et faktum er det, at hr. Brok som repræsentant for Det Europæiske Folkepartis Gruppe udelukkende har ført obstruktionspolitik.
They are able to move freely around other European Community countries with the refugee papers they possess.
Det Europæiske Folkepartis Gruppe har ikke deltaget i afstemningerne og har overhovedet ikke på noget tidspunkt ønsket at forhandle.
They have applied for proper British papers this year, but it will take three or four years before they are given British passports.
Jeg har foreslået kompro miser, og også det har hr. Brok afvist. De kan sige om sagen, hvad De vil, men jeg accepterer ikke på min gruppes vegne påstanden om, at vi ikke skulle være forhandlingsvillige.
I think this situation will get worse and not better with the advent of 1992 and I must ask the Council to take this matter most seriously and look into not just the broad question of immigration and refugees which we have been discussing today, but in particular the fact that France likes to think that it is different and that it treats people in a very discriminatory way.
Her har Det Europæiske Folkepartis Gruppe indtil sidste øjeblik ført obstruktionspolitik. tionspolitik.
I would be grateful if the President-in-Office would give some response to that.
Den praksis, som et flertal i Udvalget om Sociale Anliggender, Beskæftigelse og Arbejdsmiljø lægger for dagen, truer gennemførelsen af det sociale aktionsprogram.
With the advent of the Single Market allowing freedom of goods and persons within the Community, which will allow films with child pornography and violence against women to be uncensored and sold in high street video shops, it is profoundly worrying that no provisions have been made for video censorship in the Community, after 1992.
Med denne adfærd sætter Parlamentet sig uden for indflydelse ved lovgivningsarbejdet, fordi for det første Kommissionen ikke tager noget til sig, og for det andet fordi ingen af vore betydende holdninger vil indgå i Rådets fælles stand punkt.
With all due respect to the freedom of the press, the individual and the case against censorship, in any decent society there must be basic laws and guidelines which protect all mcmbrs of society, and above all children, allowing citizens to live together in safety as well as freedom.
Den Socialistiske Gruppe har indtaget en holdning, som strider mod arbejdsmarkedets parters forhand lingsret, og det strider mod de erklærede intentioner i Den Europæiske faglige Samarbejdsorganisation.
WOHLFART. — (FR) I want to assure the honourable Member that I do understand her concern in this very sensitive area.
Her lægges der øjensynlig kun vægt på at anstille det store show i stedet for at gennemføre et reelt lovgivningsarbejde, et show i en kongres i stedet for et arbejde i et lovgivningsorgan. Det er sådan, Den Socialistiske Gruppe fører sig frem!
I must tell her that as regards the right of asylum and visas, as I said in my reply, in the current state of Community law — and I think this has already been said many, times by my predecessors in this chamber — problems relating to visas and those dealing with the right of asylum both come under intergovernmental cooperation and are dealt with in the context of the conference of ministers responsible for immigration.
Det kan vel ikke være rigtigt, at fru Salisch nu i en personlig erklæring — som i realiteten var en politisk erklæring — forsøger at sige, at hun ville have optaget forhandlinger med de kristelige demokrater, og at de nu har skylden.
I would like to add that I announced this morning that the Council of Foreign Affairs Ministers is going to devote a large part of its time at the May 'General Affairs' Council to this whole problem area of free movement of persons, including the problems of visas, immigration policy and any connected problems there may be in the various Member States.
Det er jo latterligt!
It is the duty of the
Cot (S). — (FR) Fru formand, det er vigtigt, at grupperne kan udtale sig.
PRESIDENT. — Question No 7, by Mr Blak (H-0049/ 91)
Vi tog fejl, da vi troede, at det kunne ske korrekt.
Subject : Cost of alcohol abuse
noget at gøre med, at det socialistiske flertal her i Parlamentet, mod deres egne regeringer — for så vidt de stadig er ved magten — og mod deres egne lande, mod erhvervslivets og også arbejdstagernes interesser, gennemtvinger maksimalkrav, som vi liberale ikke ønsker at tage et medansvar for.
A study by Denmark's national health service has recently shown that alcoholics each year cost Danish society at least Dkr 6 billion.
Vi vil også fremover sætte os imod, at der her gennem halvandet år i et magtens overmod indtages holdninger i Udvalget om Sociale Anliggender, Beskæftigelse og Arbejdsmiljø, der på ingen måde stemmer overens med det, vi har behov for.
As to the absence of Community measures in this matter, I would point out to the honourable member that article 22, Council directive 89/552/EEC, dated 3 October 1987, precisely targets the protection of minors against television programmes which include scenes of pornography or gratuitous violence.
Hvis De ønsker den sociale dimension, må De skaffe arbejds pladser, fru Salisch. Hvis De ønsker at skaffe arbejdspladser, kan De ikke overalt...
The Council is not currently seized of any proposal from the Commission with a view to the adoption of other Community measures on this subject in the light of the completion of the internal market.
... i Det Europæiske Fællesskab ønske at indføre 35 timers arbejdsuge med fuld lønkompensation. Det kan vel ikke være rigtigt, at De pludselig forlanger det hér!
Will the Council therefore state whether there are figures available at Community level showing the cost of alcohol abuse?
Sådan kan man ikke føre social politik!
If not, will it compile such figures ?
Det var ikke et krav for at lægge sig ud med virksomheden. Det var et krav fra arbejdstagerne, inspireret af et skridt der var blevet accepteret i en lignende fabrik — altså Volkswagen — men i Tyskland. Disse arbejdere ræsonnerede sådan: Det finansielle Europa eksisterer, det økonomiske Europa eksisterer, det sociale Europa skal også eksistere! Det er det, deres krav var begrundet i.
There are two possibilities we feel could rectify the situation: firstly a ban on all criminal videos from the Community, which is the most draconian measure and secondly, a restriction on video sales to licensed shops on a strict certification system such as we have in the UK.
Men hvilken lære kan man drage af det? At vi for at komme ud over disse modsigelser har brug for en europæisk juridisk ramme, en juridisk ramme der kan sikre det, arbejderne har opnået, der kan tilsikre de bedste betingelser for samtlige arbejdere ved hjælp af forhandling, og således at alle de forvridninger, som det indre marked risikerer at medføre, kan undgås.
The honourable Member has given me an opportunity to emphasize the fact that in this resolution of 29 May 1986, the Council and the representatives of governments of Member States meeting within the Council invited the Commission to examine what measures could contribute effectively to achieving the objective of that resolution and, if appropriate, to present proposals to the Council on the matter.
Det er det, De lige har afvist: fremskridt for alle arbejdere, der gør det muligt for dem, hvor de kan, at komme frem med deres krav og lade alle de andre drage fordel deraf.
Thirdly, I would emphasize the fact that the Council is not currently seized of any new proposal from the Commission on this matter.
For det andet er der problemet med en tilpasning af levevilkårene.
We are dealing with a subject that is especially sensitive in relation to the youth of all our countries and the dignity of women.
Det står allerede i Rom-Traktaten. Det vil De ikke kunne gennemtvinge gennem en centralisering af lovgivningen, som ikke engang Kommissionen ønsker at være med til. Det vil De kun kunne gennemtvinge, hvis De går nye veje og forsøger langsomt at tilpasse levevilkårene, men ikke derved, at De kommer her med sådanne regler!
I must make one point.
Derfor er vi imod, og vi vil også fremover sætte os imod, at Den Socialistiske Gruppe igen og igen fører en sådan politik.
Unless there are new proposals the Council cannot take a new position under the current procedure.
Lord O'Hagan (ED). — (EN) Fru formand og alle Guardian-læsere, jeg anser mig selv for at være et ret mildt gemyt, men jeg må sige til denne forsamling, at jeg i dag skammer mig over at være medlem af dette såkaldte Parlamentet.
I would however like to add that the European Court has pronounced a number of decrees since December 1979 in certain cases dealing with attaint of public morality.
Hvis det virkelig lykkes os at få samlet et fremskridtsorienteret flertal — og jeg er glad for, at samarbejdet med de kristelige demokrater så småt begynder at fungere i denne henseende — må vi finde en måde, hvorpå socialpolitikken kan renses for krav, der blot er maksimumkrav, som kun gentager noget: Det, De gør her, er dog blot at lægge alle krav fra de tolv medlemslande sammen!
As of now, I can only add one piece of information in connection with the directive of 3 October 1989 on television across frontiers.
Parlamentet burde gennemføre en ny politik.
When we consider that it costs Danish society six thousand million kroner, that is a tremendous amount of money in European eyes.
Hvor ledes vil De dog opnå mere kompetence til Parlamentet, hvis De kommer på kant med enhver, der løber rundt et eller andet sted?
I therefore think we must request the Council to ask the Commission to put forward before the end of 1991 a comprehensive plan as to how we can combat the growing abuse of alcohol we are seeing within the Community.
Hvorfor dog konstant lægge sig ud med Kommissionen?
For week 40 last year, Denmark ran an information campaign recommending all 40-year-olds to have an alcohol-free week.
Desværre har vi ikke kunnet tilslutte os denne betænkning, fordi ændringerne var så store, at de ikke længere var acceptable.
But once again I would request you to ask the Council to shoulder its responsibilities before the end of 1991 so that we do not have to put the same question again in another five years.
Jeg vil gerne bede om 10 sekunder mere, fru for mand, på grund af de voyous derovre.
WOHLFART. — (FR) I will answer, even though the honourable Member did not address the supplementary to me personally.
Dette skulle være en seriøs diskussion om et seriøst lovforslag om et seriøst emne, men Den Socialistiske Gruppe har gjort det til de miserable rester af et agitprop-møde under et tillægsvalg i en baggård i et barsk område i det barskeste land i Fællesskabet.
It is really addressed to the Commission. In his question he refers to the enormous economic costs linked to the consumption and abuse of alcohol in Commission countries, not forgetting all the

That is how things stand at the moment.
I selv samme øjeblik som den tyske regering foreslår, at vi skal gives større beføjelser, beviser vi, hvorfor vi ikke fortjener at have de beføjelser, vi har.
human problems linked to this issue, having trained as a doctor, I am well-placed to subscribe to everything he has said on the subject.
Og Parlamentets socialistiske formand griber ikke ind.
I hope it will do so as soon as possible.
Faktisk gør han ikke særlig meget under alle omstændigheder, så måske kunne han ikke.
We must see things as they are : thereis a sharing of powers under our treaties.

PRESIDENT. — Question No 8, by Mr Maher (H-0071/91)
For det første er de uantagelige af proceduremæssige grunde.
Subject: Control of the application of Community law
I virke ligheden er størsteparten af disse ændringsforslag uforenelige med det juridiske grundlag, man har valgt for dette direktiv, nemlig artikel 118 A i Trak taten, der udelukkende drejer sig om arbejdstagernes beskyttelse, sundhed og sikkerhed.
As regards the question which has just been raised, under the Treaty vigilance over respect for Community law is the role of the Commission. The Council does not have the competence to take cases of violation of the law by a Member State to the European Court.
De er dernæst uantagelige af principielle grunde.
You say Member States have broken this law.
Imidlertid bekymrer for slagsstillerne sig ikke om vanskelighederne med at gennemføre dem og mere præcist med de åbenbart negative følger for virksomhedernes konkurrence evne og i forbindelse hermed beskæftigelsen under den internationale handels åbne økonomi.
The 7th Annual Report to the European Parliament on the control of the application of Community law presents an impressive list of judgments of the Court of Justice against Member States which have not yet been carried out by the Member States concerned at the time of the publication of the report (May 1990).
Det er klart, at de, der har stillet disse ændringsforslag, i demogagiens navn lovpriser foranstaltninger, der kompromitterer den europæisk økonomis fremtid og i sidste ende fører til situationer, der absolut ikke er i lønmodtagernes interesse.
Secondly, article 155 of the EEC Treaty, and the corresponding articles in the corresponding articles in the EAEC and Euratom Treaties, stipulate that: 'In order to ensure the proper functioning and development of the common market, the Commission shall:
Sådan forholder det sig med den obligatoriske overgang til en 39 timers arbejdsuge fra den 1. juni 1994 at regne og med den fuldstændige kompensation for overarbejde med hviletid, naturligvis alt sammen uden lønnedgang.
Can the Council state what the situation was at the end of December 1990 and in particular indicate to what extent the Member States concerned have carried out the necessary measures to make the directives effective ?
Men ovre til venstre spørger man aldrig om deres mening.
Faced with this worrying situation, should not the Council decide, for instance, to make an annual assessment of the application of Community law ?
Dette er et alvorligt principspørgsmål om det fremtidige arbejde i Parlamentets udvalg.
— formulate recommendations or deliver opinions on matters dealt with in this treaty, if it expressly so provides or if the Commission considers it necessary; sary;
Vil vi blive tyranniseret af det nuværende flertal? Bliver vi holdt nede af afpresning fra fru Salisch, som nu er gået?
— have its own power of decision and participate in the shaping of measures taken by the Council and by the European Parliament in the manner provided for in this treaty;
Og de afbryder procedurerne, indtil de får deres vilje ved at bøje reglerne og fordreje de rigtige fremgangsmåder.
— exercise the powers conferred on it by the Council for the implementation of the rules laid down by the latter.'
( Bifald fra højre)
MAHER. — (LDR) I can hardly go so far as to thank the President for his answer because it was not an answer.
Men de af vor forsamling vedtagne ændringsforslag forvansker disse mål, og derfor vil min gruppe ikke kunne stemme for betænkningen.
The Council has agreed to these regulations, yet we find they are not being put into effect in the Member States.
Det er derfor ikke kun i forbindelse med arbejdstiden, vi ikke har gjort vor pligt over for vælgerne.
KELLETT-BOWMAN. — (ED) It should not be necessary for me to remind the President-in-Office of the Council that when he is present all twelve governments of the Community are present in this Chamber.
Det er trist, og det er slemt for Europa.
That is why Mr Maher was addressing questions in that fashion.
Det er måden, Parlamentet arbejder på under pres fra dem, der sidder derovre, som ikke kan lide uenighed, som ikke godtager argumenter, som ikke kan lide ægte beviser, ikke kan lide, verden udenfor kommer og siger til os, at sommetider er det, socialistene gør her i Europas navn, dumt.
I think he was quite right. However, may I put a question to him too: to what extent are Community citizens able to take proceedings under Community laws which have no: been turned into national law within their Member States ?
De kan tale i udvalget, fru Salisch, og lad være med at afbryde mig.
WOHLFART. — (FR) This question time reminds me of the priest's Sunday sermons.
Hør efter, så lærer De måske noget.
His exhortations were always addressed to those present, never to those
Nielsen (LDR). — Jeg vil stemme imod dette mis foster af en betænkning om tilrettelæggelse af arbejdstiden.
WOHLFART. — (FR) I think that question should be dealt with in the context of the European Convention on Human Rights.
Herved mister Europa-Parlamentet fuldstændig sin troværdighed, og vi mister den medindflydelse, vi vel ønsker at have. Dette kan vi takke socialisterne for.
They must exercise this duty in accordance with the international obligations they have subscribed to, notably in signing the European Convention on Human Rights.
Hvis vi allerede ved førstebehandling behøvede 260 stemmer, så kunne man have udnyttet denne måned fornuftigt til forhandlinger mellem grupperne for i alle deltagendes interesse at komme til at godt resultat.
WOHLFART. — (FR) Yes Mr President, as regards the Seventh Annual Report, I have before me the official journal of the European Communities dated 17.9.1990.
Det er ikke tilfældet nu.
It is one and a half pages long.
Jeg tror ikke, vi gør arbejdstagerne nogen tjeneste dermed!
It is not up to the President to read it out, in my opinion.

Question No 11, by Mr Dessylas (H-0092/91)
Vort fælles ansvar for opbygningen af Det Sociale Europa er totalt tilsidesat.
Subject: Unacceptable treatment of religious con scientious objectors in Greece (Jehovah's Witnesses)
Socialisterne har i denne betænkning klart vist, at de ikke vil medvirke til at gennemføre den sociale dimension.
I ask specifically: Greece is shamelessly, openly, and flagrantly contravening Article 9 of the Treaty of Rome.
Hvor er socialisternes omsorg for lønmodtagerne, for de arbejdsløse, for virksomhedernes eksistens, for den nødvendige skabelse af mange nye arbejds pladser, for konkurrenceevnen, for fleksibiliteten, der gør det muligt at klare de nødvendige krav på en arbejdsplads, for morgendagens udfordringer?
And anyway, are you going to say anything about these flagrant infringements of human rights, even whispered into the ear of your colleague Mr Samaras, who is so vociferous about contraventions elsewhere, but very had of hearing concerning the flagrant contraventions of human rights that are taking place in his own country ?
Fontaine (PPE). — (FR) Jeg for mit vedkommende vil gerne sige, at jeg meget beklager, at nogle kolleger i en så vigtig sag som den, vi her udtaler os om, har givet efter for fristelsen til den mest elementære demagogi.
WOHLFART. — (FR) I cannot entirely agree with the honourable Member's last remark because the Council is not deaf when it comes to respect for Human Rights.
