Deus Pinheiro. — (PT) Hr. Habsburg, De rejser et grundlæggende problem, som jeg har været inde på i et tidligere svar.
One possibility suggested at Copenhagen was to try to distinguish everything that could be considered humanitarian aid from what could be regarded as aid in the form of cooperation — either on the part of individual states or from official international organizations such as the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, the EBRD and so on.
Problemet er følgende: Nu da flere lande i Central- og Østeuropa og navnlig Rumænien står over for store forandringer, er det af allerstørste vigtighed, at de i Paris-pagten indeholdte principper såvel som principperne i Helsinki-slutakten klart og utvetydigt overholdes i de lande, som Fællesskabet yder ekstraordinær støtte.
This, in our opinion, is vital. We have a good example in the International Red Cross, which has managed to avoid becoming involved in any political controversy and has concentrated entirely on the humanitarian aspects of crises.
Det er ligeledes af største vigtighed, at nationale, etniske, m.fl., mindretals rettigheder beskyttes hundrede procent.
It is precisely because these issues have only just started to be discussed that the Portuguese presidency felt that they should be put on the agenda of the political debate that will take place over the next six months.
Jeg kan forsikre Dem, hr. Habsburg, at dette spørgsmål ligger Fællesskabet stærkt på sinde, ikke mindst i betragtning af de vanskeligheder og problemer, vi hidtil har oplevet som følge af en mindre effektiv beskyttelse af mindretallenes rettigheder.
Do you not agree, Mr President-in-Office, that only through close political cooperation within the frame work of a common foreign policy is the Community likely to find the necessary strength and will to take a decision which is so important, delicate and un precedented in terms of international law and political practice ?
Spørgsmålet nr. 21 af Ephremidis
PRESIDENT. — As the author is not present, Question No 29 will be answered in writing.]
I denne forbindelse vil jeg gerne tilføje, at formand skabet i dag har kunnet fremsætte en offentlig erklæring om, at Fællesskabets tolv medlemsstater har besluttet at anerkende republikkerne Kroatien og Slovenien, hvilket må siges at være et vigitgt skridt hen imod konvergens mellem De Tolvs fælles udenrigspolitik.
The Greek Government recently adopted a decree allowing the construction or extension of large hotel complexes very near to the sea (up to the shoreline).
Om Selektiv ophævelse af sanktionerne i Jugoslavien
During his answer to my question on this subject2 at the November part-session, the Commissioner
Den 2. december vedtog Rådet (udenrigsministrene) at ophæve de økonomiske sanktioner mod Jugoslavien med undtagelse af Montenegro og Serbien.
Allow me to add, however, that in my opinion 1991 was a key year for the Community, in the sense that clear guidelines on this issue were approved in the European Council and specific aspects of the Com munity's cooperation with third countries were dealt with in the Development Council.
På baggrund af EF's fredsbestræbelser med henblik på løsning af krisen i landet mener Det Europæiske Politiske Samarbejde så ikke, at denne selektive afgørelse er uforenelig med Fællesskabets rolle som mægler i krisen, og at opdelingen af de stridende parter i »samarbejdsvillige« eller ej vanskeliggør bestræbelserne på en politisk løsning?
responsible, Mr Ripa di Meana, stated that the Commission had asked for information from the Greek Government, but had not yet received it. Has the Commission concluded its investigation and what is its position on the protection of the environment against the construction of the tourist facilities in Greece, in breach of Directive 85/337/ EEC3?
Ephremidis (CG). — (GR) Jeg ville også gerne have haft et positivt og konkret svar fra ministeren.
BELO (S). — (PT) Mr President, a number of my colleagues have congratulated the Minister on his replies and as a Portuguese national I shall do the same.
Han blandede nemlig tingene lidt sammen.
I should like to ask the following question.
Der var indført sanktioner mod samtlige jugoslaviske republikker, men på et tidspunkt blev sanktionerne ophævet for alle republikker undagen Serbien
They raised a number of important points concerning the right of intervention, saying that any intervention by other states was bound to have political implications that would jeopardize the provision of humanitarian aid. This gave
Habsburg (PPE). — (FR) Indledningsvis skal jeg udtrykke påskønnelse af den beslutning, der er truffet til fordel for Kroatien og Slovenien. Dette er i overensstemmelse med vore demokratiske idealer med hensyn til folkenes selvbestemmelsesret.
Member pointed out, allows the construction and extension of hotel complexes very close to the sea.
Mit spørgsmål, der bliver kort, eftersom jeg ikke har hjemme i Demosthenes' fædreland, lyder som følger: Påtænker Fællesskabet at yde støtte til ubedringen af de skader, serberne har forvoldt i Kroatien?
In the end, the decision came later, but I have no doubt that everyone was informed of the new support arrange ments.
Jeg har aflagt fire besøg i denne region, hvor jeg har kunnet måle rækkevidden af serbernes ødelæggelser. ser.
NEWTON DUNN (ED). — Mr Christophersen, I am extremely grateful to you for standing in there because I know this is not your portfolio.
Der er nu et uafklaret spørgsmål.
The aim of this procedure is self-evident.
Dette fandt sted efter den velkendte mæglingskommissions afgørelse, som er en henstilling på grundlag af juridiske kriterier.
We must take the environmental impact into account, even if the final decision is taken by the national authorities.
— at den ophører med den antigræske propaganda, som har til hensigt at inddrage græsk territorium;
I will return to this matter when we receive the information we asked the Greek Government to provide.
Deus Pinheiro. — (PT) Hr. Habsburg, dette spørgsmål er endnu ikke blevet drøftet i Fællesskabet, og jeg forudser heller ikke, at der på kort sigt vil ske ændringer i de beslutninger, der for nylig blev truffet desangående.
The reply is very interesting. It gives the reasons why it was such an inadequate performance as far as the farmers were concerned but my question asks if 1 can have an undertaking that it will not happen again, and I did not get that assurance in Mr Christophersen's reply.
— at den giver konkrete, sikre garantier for, at den ikke stiller krav, der rammer Grækenland;
Please may I have an undertaking that the Commission will not let this happen again ?
— at den ændrer sit falske navn, da det netop vidner om og i sig selv indeholder territoriale krav på et Makedonien, hvor det end ligger.
ROMEOS (S). — (GR) I should like to thank the Commissioner. I am sorry that the Greek Government has not responded.
Efter hvad jeg har læst i aviserne ser det ud til, at der er fremsat forskellige argumenter, navnlig af hr. Robert Badinter, for denne beslutning.
However, Commissioner, I should like to ask a supplementary question: if some of these hotel complexes form part of Community programmes — and these programmes are under consideration for approval by the Commission — has the Commission also made provision for assessing, in this specific case, to what extent they would damage the environment ?
Mit spørgsmål lyder derfor: Vil Rådet støtte sig til mæglingskommissionens juridiske argumenter, eller vil det anskue problemet politisk?
CHRISTOPHERSEN. — (DA) I do not think I can promise that. You must not forget that the Commission submitted its proposals after long and detailed discussions in the Council.
For dette problem peger i retning af grænseændringer, i retning af en ekspansionsKrig i det sydlige Jugoslavien, og vi ved ikke, hvilke andre perspektiver dette spørgsmål kan have.
This is what often happens in connection with price proposals.
Jeg vil gerne have oplyst, om disse argumenter er hemmelige, om oplysningerne i aviserne er lækket, og om vi som medlemmer af Europa-Parlamentet ikke har ret til at få lidt flere oplysninger om grundlaget for disse beslutninger?
If you require an absolute guarantee that this will not happen again, you will have to wait until Mr Mac Sharry arrives. But I do not think he will be able to give you that assurance either.
Deus Pinheiro. — (PT) Jeg skal præcisere, at der ikke er tale om en rådsbeslutning.
CHRISTOPHERSEN. — (DA) The answer is yes.
Formandskabet konkstaterede blot, at de tolv EF-medlemsstater havde truffet en beslutning i en bestemt retning.
PRESIDENT. — Question No 31 by Mr Newton Dunn (H-1221/91)
Men der var ikke tale om en rådsbeslutning.
Subject: Oilseed rape
Andet spørgsmål: Badinter-rapporten.
LANE (RDE). — I do not quite understand the question.
Denne blev bestilt af Rådet forsamlet i Europæisk Politisk Samarbejde, og derfor mener jeg ikke, at jeg bør udbrede kendskabet til den på eget initiativ, uden at der er truffet aftale om en sådan offentliggørelse i Rådet.
Parliament has been asked on a number of occasions to treat this particular subject with urgency and the Committee on Agriculture, Fisheries and Rural Development and the plenary session twice refused to treat it with urgency.
Formanden. — Da spørgeren ikke er til stede, vil spørgsmål nr. 22 blive besvaret skriftligt ').
CHRISTOPHERSEN. — (DA) I would not, of course, express it in such forceful terms, but the Honourable Member rightly pointed out that the Commission and the Council had hoped that the decision could be taken before the end of October.
Spørgsmål nr. 23 af Newman (H-1252/91):
In actual fact, the decision was not taken until December.
Jeg vil imidlertid gerne understrege, at De Tolvs anerkendelse af 16. december indlysende nok rum mer to aspekter: et juridisk og et politisk.
I should also like to add that we already knew in July that the proposal would be put forward and implemented. The producers at least were aware of that.
Dette blev klart i forbindelse med beslutningstagningen. Det er grunden til, at der anvendes juridiske formuleringer, der hverken kan eller bør være bindende, eftersom spørgsmålet om anerkendelse eller ej suverænt henhører under den enkelte medlemsstats kompetenceområde.
CHRISTOPHERSEN, Vice-President of the Commission. — (DA) I believe I am in a position to answer the Honourable Member's question.
Intet i Rom-Traktaten, heller ikke efter Maastricht-topmødet, pålægger os at træffe en fælles beslutning i denne sag.
At the point in the autumn when oilseeds were sown, the Commission's proposal for the new support arrangements was common knowledge — at least that was our impression.
Enhver fælles beslutning på dette område er således en merværdi og et positivt skridt i retning af Den Europæiske Union.
Besides this, as soon as the proposal appeared in July it was immediately sent to all the relevant organizations in the Community, including COPA which, as you know, represents the Community's agricultural organizations.
Herudover har jeg ikke mandat fra Rådet til at udtale mig, men kun et nationalt mandat.
This became necessary, in part, in the light of the conclusions the GATT panel was forced to draw, and so it was already clear at that point that the Council would have to take a
Deus Pinheiro. — (PT) Jeg skal blot tilkendegive, at jeg fuldt ud deler hr. Newmans synspunkt, at den nuværende trojka har et særligt ansvar med hensyn til Sydafrika, og at vi vil gøre alt, hvad der står i vores magt, for at bidrage til en fredelig udvikling i Sydafrika.
'Will the President-in-Office of the Commission, taking account of the urgency of this matter, now name one Commissioner to coordinate the actions of the Commission in this matter, including, if necessary, legislative proposals, and agree to give it a measure of priority ?'
Hvilket pres vil udenrigsministrene lægge på Sydafrika for at få det til at overholde sin egen aftale om politiske fanger og løslade de politiske fanger i Bophupotswana-området?
I do not foresee any further very abrupt or radical changes. The regulations will obviously be affected, but I cannot say exactly how at the moment.
Formanden. — Da spørgerne ikke er til stede, vil spørgsmål nr. 24 og 25 blive besvaret skritligt ')·
PRESIDENT. — Question No 32 by Mr Christopher Jackson (H-1223/91)
Spørgsmål nr. 26 af Habsburg (H-1274/91):
Subject: Custom brokers and the single market
Om: Ødelæggelse af miljøet på Nordpolen På mit spørgsmål om den foruroligende ødelæggelse af miljøet forårsaget af de sovjetiske baser på Nordpolen har EPS kort erklæret, at de ikke har beskæftiget sig med sagen.
I refer the Commission to my written question No QXW0770/9QENlregarding the responsibility of the EC towards custom brokers, and action to help.
Mit spørgsmål lyder derfor som følger: Er EPS klar over, hvilken betydning bevarelsen af miljøet på Nordpolen har for kommende generationer i Europa, og er det ikke derfor en del af EPS' opgave at rådføre sig med eksperter og handle i overensstemmelse hermed i en tid, hvor det tidligere USSR er nødt til at lytte til Europa?
Following a recent meeting with Commissioner Millan and numerous other contacts with parts of the Commission, I am extremely dissatisfied that no effective action is being taken and even a survey has been delayed.
Deus Pinheiro, formand for Udenrigsministrene: — (PT) Hr. Newman, De er utvivlsomt vidende om, at De Tolv den 3. oktober 1991 udsendte en erklæring, hvori de erindrede om de appeller, de tidligere har rettet til de sydafrikanske myndigheder om ufortøvet at løslade alle politike fanger, og samtidig udtryktes bekymring over, at der endnu ikke er fundet nogen løsning på spørgsmålet om den fortsatte tilbageholdelse af politiske fanger i de såkaldte uafhængige homelands.
Perhaps it was that I did not understand properly what Mrs Scrivener said but I think the question is absolutely precise : name one Commissioner ; agree, if necessary, to go ahead with legislative proposals and give this priority. The Commission spends millions of pounds on aid to other sectors which are in decline or which are facing problems, such as the tobacco farmers in Greece — a notable example.
Siden da har De Tolv mod taget oplysninger om, at en gruppe på 19 politiske fanger er blevet løsladt den 17. og den 19. oktober 1991, og at 27 fanger blev løsladt i Bophupotswanaområdet den 9. november.
Is it not absolutely essential that the Commission should assume responsibility in this particular area where legislation for the benefit of the people of the Community comes through the Commission, the Parliament and the Council, yet causes customs brokers to lose their jobs ?
Desuden blev yderligere 73 fanger løsladt i december 1991.
This is a responsibility that should be assumed by the Commission.
Deus Pinheiro, formand for Udenrigsministrene. — (PT) Det Europæiske Politiske Samarbejde er sig betydningen af at bevare miljøet på Nordpolen fuldt bevidst.
The matter is urgent because we know, even if the Commission does not, that job losses may well reach 120 000 right across the Community.
Fællesskabet og dets medlemsstater vurderer, at senest den 7. december var samtlige de fanger, der var anklaget for at have deltaget i kupforsøget i 1988, løsladt.
Will the President of the Commission, taking into account the urgency of this matter, now name one Commissioner to coordinate the actions of the Commission in this matter including, if necessary, legislative proposals, and agree to give it a measure of priority ?
En undtagelse herfra er lederen af kupforsøget, Timothy Phiri, hvis sag skal tages op på ny.
SCRIVENER. —(FR) First of all, I think the figure you have just quoted is too high.
Til trods for denne positive udvikling er der ifølge Menneskerettighedskommissionen stadig 11 politiske fanger i Sydafrika, hvormed det samlede antal aktuelt når op på 12.
In any case, however, it is precisely the study which is being carried out — and I repeat that we shall have the results by the end of March — that will enable us to assess the scale of any job losses. That is the first point.
EPS vil i bevidstheden om 1990'ernes udfordringer på miljøbekyttelsesområdet bestræbe sig på at samordne holdningerne i alle relevante fora og på at få en dialog i stand med det tidligere USSR om dette spørgsmål.
SCRIVENER, Member of the Commission. — (FR) Mr President, I would point out, on this question of customs brokers and completing the single market, that a study of the sector is under way, financed by the European Social Fund, and I expect to have the results by the end of this quarter.
Habsburg (PPE). — (FR) Hr. rådsformand, jeg takker Dem oprigtigt for Deres detaljerede svar på samtlige stillede spørgsmål, noget, jeg i allerhøjeste grad påskønner.
Having said that, the Commission will naturally do all it can — as I myself will — to take steps that will further assist what must be done by the profession, on the one hand, as we must not forget, and by the regions and the Member States on the other.
Når jeg har bedt om ordet er det for at anmode Dem om at insistere på, at der gøres en hurtig indsats, da der sker frygtelige ting i Nordrusland, navnlig i Novaja-Zemlja-området og, 1000 km længere mod nord, i Franz-Joseph-Land.
JACKSON, Christopher (ED). — That reply requires more thought than I have been able to give it in the approximately 50 seconds that it took to deliver.
Newman (S). — (EN) Tak for Deres svar, hr. råds formand. Jeg tror, at alle medlemmer påskønner De Tolvs indsats.
Clearly, as we all know very well, we have been talking about the removal of frontiers for quite some time.
Vi er alle bekendte med, at der er en politisk forandringsproces i gang i Sydafrika, hvilket klart berører de kunstigt etablerede homelands, der reelt er en del af Sydafrika.
For a good while now, all the professions have had to come to terms with this problem, and let me say that for a very long time there was a great deal of scepticism about the implementation of the Single Act.
Jeg takker for Deres indsats og håber, De vil fortsætte i den ånd.
Finally, let me add that this is a profession which has developed considerably in recent times, and I
Spørgsmål nr. 28 af Arbeloa Muru (H-01029/91):
That point has to be made clear.
Om: Menneskerettigheder og princippet om ikke-indblan-ding ødelæggelse.
SCRIVENER. — (FR) Yes, but I think that here too, this question has been answered by what I said earlier.
Den ødelæggelse, der skyldes de sovjetiske tropper, der stadig har deres baser der.
Once again, you are asking why we are waiting for this study.
Hvad er holdningen i Det Europæiske Politiske Samarbejde til denne tese, og hvilken indvirkning vil den kunne få på Fællesskabets handlemåde i fremtiden?
Subject: Danger to public health in Athens from the use of asbestos water pipes
Belo (S). — (PT) Hr. minister, jeg tillader mig at udvide miljøaspektet til spørgsmålet om borgernes sikkerhed og spørger, om De kan give yderligere oplysninger ud over dem, vi har fra medierne, vedrørende Europas sikkerhed i forbindelse med det tidligere Sovjetunionens atomvåben-arsenal, ikke mindst på baggrund af den strid, der ser ud til at trække op mellem navnlig Rusland og Ukraine.
GANGOITI LLAGUNO (PPE). — (ES) Mr President, I am pleased to hear Mrs Scrivener's reply, as she is, to a certain extent, responsible for the disappearance of our internal frontiers. I am not asking the Community to draw up a special or specific plan to tackle this problem, but the achievement of a Europe without frontiers in 1993 — which we all wish to see — will cause problems not just for customs brokers, but also for a number of border towns.
Formanden. — Jeg giver ordet til ministeren, hvis denne finder det i orden, da det spørgsmål, kan er i gang med at besvare, drejer sig om miljøet på Nordpolen og ikke det tidligere USSR's atomvåben arsenal.
In the case of Spain, for example, Irún, which has 80 000 inhabitants and is the second largest town in the province of Guipúzcoa, which borders France, depends on its position as a border town for its existence.
Deus Pinheiro, formand for Udenrigsministrene. — (PT) I dokumentet fra CSCE-konferencen i Moskva om Den Menneskelige Dimension, punkt 37, bekræftede deltagerstaterne bl.a. samtlige CSCE-dokumenters bestemmelser og aftaler, specielt dokumentet fra CSCE-Menneskerettighedskonferen-cen i København vedrørende rettigheder for nationale mindretal og personer tilhørende disse, samt ekspertrapporten om nationale mindretal, udarbejdet på CSCE-mødet i Genève, og opfordrede til hurtig og fuldstændig gennemførelse af disse bestemmelser. melser.
I would ask, therefore, if the European Community does not intend, from 1993 onwards, to make an enormous effort — it is clear from Mrs Scrivener's reply that the Community is not unduly concerned, from an economic point of view, about the problems facing workers and businessmen in border areas — at least to give the Member States and the regions time to help back into employment, through fiscal measures and the provision of subsidies, those people who are going to end up without a job.
Mindretallenes rettigheder har i det hele taget været et prioriteret emne inden for rammerne af CSCE i hele 1991, og jeg er sikker på, at det også fremover vil blive viet stor opmærksomhed.
The Greek Water Authority uses asbestos pipes in its water distribution network.
Den ovenfor nævnte rapport fra CSCE-Mødet om nationale mindretal i Genève i 1991 understreger på ny, at disse rettigheder kun vil kunne behandles adækvat inden for et demokratisk system og påpeger, at spørgsmål vedrørende nationale mindretal er et internationalt problem.
It is recognized that asbestos is dangerous to human health as a carrier of carcinogenic substances and therefore unsuitable for the distribution of drinking water.
Fællesskabet og dets medlemsstater, der spiller en stadig mere aktiv rolle i drøftelserne inden for CSCE, har længe argumenteret for, at fordømmelse af konkrete tilfælde af krænkelser af menneskerettighederne ikke bør anses for indblanding i en stats interne anliggender, men at det derimod er en pligt, der legitimt påhviler der internationale samfund og alle stater, enkeltvis eller kollektivt.
Does the Commission not consider that the use of asbestos pipes in the drinking water distribution network constitutes a serious risk to public health, that this practice goes against Community recommendations and directives on the control and restriction of the use of asbestos and the ban on certain uses, and that it is not in keeping with action to prevent cancer and to prevent exposure to carcinogenic chemicals ?
Deus Pinheiro. — (PT) Jeg vil med glæde svare på fru Maria Belos spørgsmål, der omhandler et pro blem, der ikke blot giver anledning til bekymring i EF's medlemslande, men i hele det internationale samfund, herunder også de stater, der tidligere var en del af Sovjetunionen.
SCRIVENER. — (FR) No, but I think my answers have been quite clear.
De erklæringer og løfter, der hidtil er afgivet af myndighederne i de nye stater, er efter min mening opmuntrende.
I would add, without going back on what I have just said, that it is possible to deal with some problems under the Structural Funds when they are of a transfrontier nature.
Det vil efter vores mening eventuelt blive nødvendigt, at der tages et lignende initiativ for taktiske atomvåbens vedkommende.
You may rest assured that if the Community can do something, it will do it, but do not count on it to solve all the problems.
Formanden. — Da spørgeren ikke er til stede, vil spørgsmål nr. 27 blive besvaret skriftligt ').
PAPANDREOU, Member of the Commission. — (GR) As far as Mr Ephremidis's question is concerned, the Commission has already answered a previous question tabled by Mr Kostopoulos a few months ago.
På baggrund af denne beslutning og den hertil svarende forordning vil De Tolv eksplicit knytte EF's forbindelser med udviklingslandene sammen med overholdelse af
The Scientific Committee on Human Foodstuffs attested to this in the findings it published in 1979, and since then there have been no further or different findings.
