Jeg tror, at det er muligt. Jeg er i den forbindelse til stadighed klar over, at vi uanset forhandlingsresultatet har brug for en samstemmende udtalelse fra Europa-Parlamentet.
Given that from 1992 on lorries, buses and cars from third countries will be subjected to strict external controls at the borders of the European Community, and that there are no special gates there as in airports, long queues will constantly form on these roads for transit and entry traffic.
Det er jeg klar over. Jeg spørger somme tider mig selv, hvorfor det så ofte siges til mig.
Even if Austria expects its application for accession to be approved as early as 1992, it should keep alert and try to avoid such problems in advance.
Men ok, jeg vil altså endnu en gang gentage: Jeg er klar over det, og Kommissionen vil handle i overensstemmelse hermed, idet den er overbevist om, at også Europa-Parlamentet er af den opfattelse, at oprettelsen af et europæisk økonomisk område er vigtig for Det Europæiske Fællesskab, for EFTA-landene og for opbygningen af Europa som helhed.
ELLIOTT (S). — Mr President, it is increasingly being seen that the EEA discussions are a stepping-stone to potential Community membership for the six EFTA countries, and this is increasingly being recognized in the EFTA countries themselves. During the past nine months we have received here in Strasbourg delegations of Members of Parliament from Finland, Sweden and Iceland, and it is clear that political views on Community membership are changing rapidly in these countries.

AMARAL (LDR). — (PT) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the process of building a European economic area by means of institutionalizing relations
Hvis jeg har forstået hende ret, drejer det sig med hensyn til miljøfonden om sammen med EFTA at skabe en fond til gavn for miljøproblematikken i lande i Mellem- og Østeuropa.
I totally disagree with those who seem to take the view that 12 members of the Community are enough.
Jeg er personligt gerne villig til at drøfte dette nærmere for at se, om noget sådant kunne indpasses i anvendelsen af f.eks.
If that were the case, we ought never to have started, because you can have disagreements in a Community of only two or three countries.

The criterion we should adopt is that any country that is genuinely European, that is genuinely democratic and is prepared to accept the basic concepts of the European Community, should be welcome to membership and that no barriers should be put in their way.
Der næst kommer så ønskerne fra lande som Tjekkoslovakiet og Ungarn.
amongst its own members with regard to the setting-up of this fund.
Vi må kunne sige, at der skal kunne indledes forhandlinger mellem EF og et euro pæisk land, når 1) landet har markedsøkonomi og demokrati og respekterer menneskerettighederne, 2) landet accepterer hele EF-lovgivningen og vedtagelser om Fællesskabernes fremtid, 3) landet har søgt om medlemskab, fordi det føler sig økonomisk og politisk parat.
But this independent structural fund would be absolutely innocuous if it were not for two questions : the first relates to the need to have available a significant financial package which would make an effective impact on the standard of living of the populations of the lessdeveloped regions; the second question concerns observing the principle of additionality as regards the Community's own structural policy.
EF er i dag den stærkeste organisation i Europa og har et absolut ansvar for at bidrage til det nære og forpligtende samarbejde i hele Europa.
We would stress that the new independent structural fund must be destined primarily for those sectors which are poorly supplied with Community investments such as housing, health and education.
Vi må gøre os klart, at vi enten er med til at stadfæste det opsplittede Europa eller er med til at fremme den samling af Europa, som også indebærer håb for de folkeslag, der i øjeblikket har konflikter med deres egne statsdannelser.
The introduction of this countervailing financial machinery, therefore, though not a sufficient condition, is certainly a necessary condition to make the EEC/EFTA agreement a good one.
Jeg vil anse mig selv for at være en af de største tilhængere af en EF/EFTA-aftale, men der er ingen grund til at lægge skjul på, at noget vil forandre sig.
We should not be putting pressure on the EFTA countries to join, if they do not feel it is time for them to do so, nor should we be putting barriers in their way.
Noget af det, der vil forandre sig, mangler vi at få et svar på: Rådet var i sin indledning inde på, at der skal skabes en ny organisme, hvorigennem EF og EFTA skal kommunikere, men vi mangler at få at vide, hvordan den organisme ser ud. Selvfølgelig kan vi i EF-Parlamen-tet prøve på at lappe på denne tingenes tilstand ved at holde endnu flere møder i interparlamentariske forsamlinger.
We must be sensitive and responsive to their situations but certainly create no obstacles, and I entirely share the view expressed by my colleague Mr McMahon that it is unacceptable for Eastern European countries to be invited into the Community in advance of EFTA countries, which have long, long traditions of European affiliation and of democratic systems.
Men den egentlige løsning er endnu mere radikal: Hvis vi ønsker at løse det demokrati ske problem, skal vi håbe på, at flere og flere af EFTA-landene vil søge medlemskab af EF.
I would certainly like to see the countries of Eastern Europe becoming members of the Community, in course of time, but this process cannot be hurried.
Debat ten om meningen med EF/EFTA-forhandlingerne viser, at der er helt åbenlyst forskellige holdninger til, om det er ønskeligt, at flere lande bliver medlem mer af EF.
It is a process that is not going to be easy to accomplish in some instances, and waiting for them to catch up before we are prepared to deal favourably with any of the EFTA countries that wish to join is an unacceptable situation.
Modstanderne af et EF med flere lande hylder sig i forskellige forklædninger.
So I hope very much that we can speed up the EEA discussions, reach a satisfactory agreement and over come the remaining difficulties.
Enten mener de, at fokus vil blive fjernet fra de fattigste EF-lande, eller de siger, at flere lande end tolv ikke kan integrere sig tilstrækkeligt.
This will be a very important milestone on the path to the future Community membership of those EFTA countries that see it as in their interests to join us.
Rystende nok har disse argumenter ikke skiftet karakter i den seneste tid, selv ikke efter opbruddet i Østeuropa. Den herskende euro-eksklusivitet kom bl.a. til udtryk i et spørgsmål til Rådet, hvor spørgerne fra Det Politiske Udvalg så EF/EFTA-aftalen som et værn om alene vesteuropæiske værdier.

Hvis vi går til værks efter tidsplanen, skulle forhandlingerne afsluttes i april.
COX (LDR). — Mr President, I have a question I would like to put to the Commission.
Jeg tror, at vi så allerede nu er for sent på den til at nå målstregen i juni. Det vil jeg gerne høre kommissærens opfattelse af.
Commissioner An driessen said earlier in the debate that, as far as the Commission is concerned, no accession is on the immediate agenda.
De punkter, som stadig står på dagsordenen og ofte endnu befinder sig på et begynderstadium af for handlingerne, er af stor betydning, f.eks. landbrug og fiskeri.
Could I ask him to comment on the views expressed last Thursday in Vienna by Vice-President Bangemann to Austria to the effect that, while its application for membership was welcome, there was a fundamental problem with its neutrality.
På EF-siden er vi vant til, at blodtrykket stiger kraftigt ved landbrugsforhandlingerne. For EFTA-landene gælder det samme, når det drejer sig om fiskeri.
Is this a collegiate view in the Commission, and if so, can the Commissioner say whether it is the Commission's view that neutrality is not compatible with political union?
En generel bemærkning vil jeg fremsætte herom.
Can he state the Commission's view on Ireland's position in this regard ?
Jeg mener, at undtagelser skal udelukkes, medmindre der er tale om monokultur.
MENDES BOTA (LDR). — (PT) A point of order, Mr President.
Selvmord må vi ikke kræve af vore forhandlingspartnere.
I have only one minute to speak, but I hope to have your attention for that minute, as previous speakers had.
Overgangsperioder kan efter min mening kun drøftes, hvis de ikke er for lange.
I therefore ask you, Mr President, to keep the appropriate order in the House.
Vi har altså på den ene side den politisk betingede uvilje mod at dele EF med andre.
COT (S). — (FR) Mr President, as indicated by other speakers, the vote which is to take place is an important one.
På den anden side har vi forsøgene på at argumentere økonomisk herfor.
The Committee on the Rules of Procedure is proposing to us reform of the Rules of Procedure.
De to EFTA-lande, der har ansøgt eller snart vil ansøge om medlemskab, er to i forvejen store samhandelslande med EF.
Moreover, I should add that this reform is a first step towards improved organization of our work.
De har gennemført megen EF-lovgivning selv. De statistiske udredninger i forbindelse med EF/EFTA-forhandlingerne kan dokumentere disse landes grad af egnethed til at
The President of the Parliament has made a number of proposals, and these have been submitted to the enlarged Bureau for consideration and should result in reforms making it much easier for us to do our work.
Begge sider må under disse forhandlinger være klar over, hvor vigtigt det europæiske område er for realiseringen af et europæisk hus.
In the present stage of negotiations between the European Economic Community and EFTA we welcome the agreement obtained between the Twelve with a view to including in the package of bargaining counters the possible creation of an independent structural fund.
Peijs forhandlinger, som må regnes for umulige på nuværende tidspunkt. Regeringskonferencen synes kun at ændre lidt ved dette.
It may be that Parliament is incapable of reforming itself.
Jeg håber, at kommissæren og måske også Rådet på dette punkt kan berolige mig.
This is therefore a responsibility we all have to shoulder with regard to the decision awaiting us.
FORSÆDE: GEORGIOS ROMEOS
We want to reform the Rules of Procedure.
Næstformand
We all agree on that.
Vi er også bekymrede over styrkelsen af demokratiet i Europa.
The question that arises now is shall we do it all in one go, or step by step ?
Aldrig må demokratiet opgives under dække af effektivitet.
What we are trying to take now is the first step.
Allerede nu har befolkningerne på fællesskabsplan ikke de demokratiske rettigheder, som de har i deres eget land, og som de også ønsker på fællesskabsplan.
We have taken it with full concern and care for the rights of individuals and the groups, but formal procedure requires us to take one step at a time.
Jeg ser denne demokratiske styr kelse som en conditio sine qua non for yderligere udvidelse.
If we do not manage to take the first step today, I wonder how we are supposed to take the next one.
Jeg foretrækker derfor uddybning af Fællesskabet frem for udvidelse, netop for på denne måde at beholde den styrke, som får de omkringliggende lande til at ville tiltræde.
The decision concerns the right of amendment, a right which forms an integral part of the mandate that each of us, all equal here, has to fulfil.
Medlemskab af Fællesskabet alene er ikke tilstrækkeligt til at løse interne problemer.
There is no question of violating the right of each member individually to table amendments and put them to the vote.
Det ser vi også i nogle medlems stater.
That is an established right.
Upopulære foranstaltninger skal også træffes ved medlemskab. Den eneste fordel er, at man kan henvise til Bruxelles som bussemand.
But, at the same time, we know that the proliferation of amendments causes problems.
Samtidig er EFTA-landene vore vigtigste handelspartnere.
Once an amendment had gained four votes, it would be put to the vote in plenary, and four votes are not many.
Det ville betyde en virkelig forbedring, hvis der på begge sider blev anvendt samme konkurrencebetingelser, hvis vi nærmede os de samme miljø krav, hvis vi respekterede hinandens normer, kort sagt hvis fire friheder blev realiseret.
It also preserves the right of amendment in full for political groups or twenty-three members who will be able directly to table an amendment in plenary.
De Clercq {LDR), formand for Udvalget om Eksterne Økonomiske Forbindelser. — (NL) Hr. formand, den holdning, ifølge hvilken forhandlingerne med henblik på oprettelsen af et europæisk økonomisk område skal indstilles og erstattes af bilaterale for handlinger med de medlemsstater fra EFTA, som ønsker at tiltræde EF — en holdning, som vi her af og til hører blive forsvaret, og som også blev foreslået af den belgiske regering — er efter min mening ikke seriøs.
That is why I ask you on behalf of my group, which will vote unanimously for this amendment, to remember that we want to be a working body that can take the first step towards this necessary reform today; and I call on all those Members who feel we are not going far enough to remember that what we are doing is simply taking the first step.
Det Europæiske Fællesskab er inden for sine nuværende rammer ikke i stand til at modtage et betydeligt antal nye medlemsstater i dag.
I do not think it is justifiable for us to conclude the entire procedure for the reform of our Rules of Procedure today.
Således som næstformanden Andriessen sagde, må EF først internt have orden i sagerne.
That is why I would ask you all to take note that this vote is of great importance to our future work in this House.
Jeg er tilhænger af en »samhørighedsfond«, hvor EFTA og EF kan give udtryk for deres fælles ansvar for dårligere stillede områder inden for det økonomiske område.
They are not interested in increasing the influence of Parliament, they simply want their voices heard.
Jeg beder Dem overveje oprettelsen af endnu en fond for at hjælpe med at løse vanskeligheder på transport- og transitområdet.
But there again, I have to say that if we are unable to take that first step, we shall not be capable of taking the second and third and that the maximalist approach is in fact closely akin to that of the partisans of the status quo, the current state of affairs.
Tiltrædelsen til det indre marked vil kun intensivere handelsforbindelserne. Heraf vil utvivlsomt opstå nye behov på infrastrukturområdet, som på denne måde kunne blive opfyldt i fællesskab.
I am now asking each and every member of the House to shoulder their responsibilities.
(EN) Oprettelsen af et europæisk økonomisk område vil være en gensidig fordel for Det Euro pæiske Fællesskab og EFTA-landene af fire grunde.
McINTOSH (ED). — Mr President, my group will be supporting all the amendments and we congratulate Mr Rogalla on his report.
For det første vil det europæiske økonomiske område skabe lige betingelser for virksomheder og personer på hver side.
We recognize that this is an extremely important vote and a modest step towards easing the workload of this House.
EFTA-borgere kan så deltage i det fælles marked, ligesom Fællesskabets borgere vil have fordel af et udvidet økonomisk område.
CAPUCHO (LDR). — (PT) Mr President, in principle I should be in agreement with Mr Chairman Cot with regard to these amendments to the Rules of Procedure except that I differ from him on a fundamental aspect, namely that unfortunately the chairmen of the political Groups which have signed Amendment No 13 have not been bold enough to go further, perhaps in view of the argument put forward by the Green Group and others to the effect that this change amounts to a serious restriction on the individual rights of each of us as Members of Parliament.
For det andet vil EFTA-landene deltage i den fremtidige udvikling af fællesskabslove og vil derved forblive på et tilsvarende integrationsniveau med EF's medlems stater.
That is wrong: each Member continues to have an unrestricted right to submit amendments in committee.
For det tredje vil EFTA-landene, i fortsæt telse af den første og anden grund, holde muligheden for eventuel fremtidig tiltrædelse til Det Euro pæiske Fællesskab åben.
What I regard as un thinkable is that, if such an amendment does not receive at least four votes in committee there is no need to seek the support of one's political Group or of 23 other colleagues.
For det fjerde vil oprettelsen af det europæiske økonomiske område formindske overgangsperioden for ethvert EFTA-land, som ansøger om medlemskab af Fællesskabet.
This is therefore a little step, a very little step, which proves this Parliament's inability to reform
Et par ord om forbindelsen mellem Parlamentet og EFTA-parlamenterne. Vi må være klar over, at den supranationalitet, som er særegen for Europa-Parlamentet, ikke vil kunne findes i EFTA-landenes par lamenter.
The report and the amendments to it introduce the right for individual Members to table amendments in committees of which they are not members.
Det begrænser mulighederne betydeligt.
That is a completely new element in the Rules, and we welcome it.
Vi har derfor i Udvalget om Eksterne Økonomiske Forbindelser foreslået at lade den arbejdsgruppe, som vil beskæftige sig hermed, arbejde hen imod en interparlamentarisk delegation for forbindelserne mellem EF og EFTA, som kan mødes to gange om året.
The report will enhance the work of the specialist committees in dealing with the technical, detailed, legislative amendments which should not occupy the time of this House during the part-session.
Et andet vigtigt punkt er den måde, hvorpå vi vil træffe bestemmelser om jurisdiktion i det økono
Nevertheless, amendments can still be tabled for consideration in plenary by an individual Member, either when they have obtained four votes in committee or when they are supported by a political group, a committee or at least 23 Members.
Jeg går ud fra, at alle de tilstedeværende har kendskab hertil, kender dens indhold, således at jeg ikke behøver gentage det.
However, we look forward to more radical reforms such as a single seat for the House, and Parliament meeting in continuous session.
De Clercq når de ser på det, så vil de opdage, at der venter en juridisk og politisk og forfatningsmæssig katastrofe.
There is, however, an element of doubt regarding these procedures and, for that reason, I wish to turn to the central issue in this somewhat surreal debate.
Blot vil vi gøre opmærksom på, at den påstand, at Europa-Parlamentet gennem Udvalget om Eksterne Økonomiske Forbindelser vil blive inddraget i den afgørende fase, kunne give anledning til forskellige fortolkninger, for slet ikke at tale om misforståelser.
The chairmen of the Socialist, Christian-Democrat and Conservative groups are submitting to us an amend ment, the purpose of which is to introduce a procedure requiring members to submit their amendments to the committees in the first instance.
Vi anser den afgørende fase for at være indtrådt, ellers er alle erklæringerne om, at forhandlingerne skal være afsluttet i juni, kun erklæringer for tilhørerpladserne.
Now it turns out that the Committee on the Rules of Procedure will soon have been discussing these matters for a year, and the chairmen in question have still not submitted their wonderful amendments to the Committee.
For enten er disse for handlinger virkelig afsluttet i juni, og så befinder vi os nu i den afgørende fase, eller også vil de aldrig blive afsluttet inden juni, hvilket vi er bange for.
Consequently, we are now discovering them, and people like myself who try, as far as they can, to familiarize themselves with the Rules of Procedure have not yet, I accept, understood all the repercussions.
Så jeg håber, at de selv på dette sene tidspunkt vil skrælle pynten af denne associeringsaftale, fjerne de skadelige institutionelle falbelader, og begrænse den til en overgangsfase.
LANGER (V). — (DE) Mr President, we too are convinced that this is an important vote, as shown by the excitement in the Chamber. But we take exactly the opposite view to the preceding speakers.
Så vil der være en chance, hr. kommissær og hr. rådsformand, for, at De kan bestige det bjerg af 260 stemmer, som De må samle for denne aftale her i Parlamentet, netop på det tidspunkt, hvor vi overvejer resultaterne af regeringskonferencen.
On the whole members of small groups will find it easier to obtain their group's backing if they want to table a motion in plenary. The members of large groups who take a view different from that of their leadership will find this much more difficult.
Jeg opfordrer Dem til at tænke længe og grundigt over, hvor demokratisk det system er, som De foreslår, og hvor klogt, De bærer Dem ad.
So the issue here is the rights of all Members and especially those who for one reason or another are in a minority in their group but would like the plenary to pronounce on their proposals.
Altså, hr. formand, sørg venligst for, at Parlamentet ikke stilles over for en fuldbyrdet kendsgerning, involver Parlamentet i tide for at undgå ærgrelser i fremtiden.
We cannot vote for this amendment. Unfortunately, we shall not, in consequence, be able to vote for the draft, albeit excellent, prepared with great perseverance by our colleague, Mr Rogalla.
Spencer (ED). —(EN) Hr. formand, jeg forstår, at Rådet og Kommissionen har skrevet en dato i deres kalendere, så denne aftale kan indledes i Salzburg i juni.
VAN DER WAAL (NI). — (NL) Mr President, I have serious objections to the proposed Rules of Procedure amendments.
Sandsynligvis vil den blive underskrevet til tonerne af »A Sound of Music«.
Let there be no misunderstanding ; I too of course believe that Parliament's work must proceed efficiently.
Denne dato forekommer mig at være den rene fantasi — og en farlig fantasi — fordi sagens akter endnu er ufuldstændige, når man ser nærmere på dem.
We have indeed contributed thereto, for the Non-attached have not been the ones who have inundated Parliament with amendments.
Lad mig, som de gør det i »A Sound of Music«, opregne nogle af de ting, der især optager mig.
But it is the Non-attached who suffer serious prejudice from the present proposals.
Jeg vil i særlig grad pege på to problemer, der er kilden til store vanskeligheder i de igangværende forhandlin ger.
But at that stage no one can put his or her amendments before the plenary unless they have received the blessing of their group.
Alpedalene, der er yderst snævre, kan ikke tåle transittrafik ken rent fysisk, og disse landes tiltrædelse bør ikke sælges til gengæld for passage og ødelæggelse af alpedalene.
It has to be admitted by everyone that, with a threshold of 23 signatures, it is in practice made impossible for the Non-attached in particular to table amendments at the plenary sessions.
Der er ikke tænkt på at begrænse varigheden af aftalen, så at vi kan komme til at opdage, at vi sidder fast i en meget kompliceret institutionel struktur, der ved århundredets slutning kun gælder på Island og i Liechtenstein.
For the rest, we could easily have supported the Rogalla report; but Amend ment No 13 should be rejected by the House, which is to say it must not obtain the 262 votes.
Den internationale organisation EFTA har endnu ikke udviklet sig til et niveau, hvor den kan virke på lige fod i et samarbejde med Fællesskabet i denne forbindelse.
So I ask you to ascertain now, Mr President, whether or not it really will obtain the necessary votes.
