Vi skal her i formiddag diskutere menneskerettigheder i alle dele af verden, og så skulle vi ikke kunne tale om dem, når det gælder Fællesskabet selv?
Using an urgency for this purpose is an especially fine move, since of the two cases involved, one dates back two months and the other three years.
Jeg ved godt — og det er for resten ikke første gang — at når det gælder vore egne lande, er vi altid langt mere forbeholdne, og vi opfører os hyklerisk på en række områder.
In addition, the principle of subsidiarity which is referred to in the joint motion for a resolution tabled by three groups has nothing at all to do with what is going on here.
Åbenbart ved disse damer og grupper ikke, hvad subsidiaritet betyder, da de nemlig selv siger, at dette er medlemsstaternes opgave.
Clearly, these ladies and their groups have no idea what subsidiarity means, since they say themselves that this is a matter for the Member States.
De krænker dermed Parlamentets værdighed.
They are thus undermining the dignity of the House.
De samme grupper holdt sig ikke for gode til at tilbagevise forhandlingen om de baltiske stater, men det uopsættelige spørgsmål af denne mærkværdige art må behandles her i dag.
These same groups were not above referring back the debate on the Baltic states, but a curious urgency like this does have to be discussed.
Lad os forestille os, at en mand blev mistænkt for et alvorligt tyveri uden at blive sigtet, og at man foretog en legemsundersøgelse, når han passerede grænsen.
Let us imagine that a man is merely suspected of a serious robbery, without being charged, and is bodysearched when he crosses the border.
Hvad ville man ikke høre, hvis han i tolden blev genstand for den slags administrativ praksis? Så stakkels kvinder!
Just think what we should hear if he was subject to administrative procedures of this kind at customs !
Det er endnu en gang kvinders rettigheder, der trædes under fode, og det ønsker jeg at sige på dette sted.
Once again, it is women's rights that are being flouted, and I want to put that on record here.
Tænk på, hvad man i årevis har gjort, og måske endnu gør den dag i dag i Kina for at overvåge kvinder og for at være sikker på, at de fik foretaget abort.
Let us remember what was done for years and perhaps still is being done in China to supervise women, to make sure they have abortions.
Det var forfærdeligt, vi må tage afstand fra det.
It was horrible, and we must condemn it.
Så snart de havde ét barn, sørgede man for, at de ikke kunne få flere.
As soon as they had one child, it was ensured that they could not have any more.
Lad os også mindes Rumænien, hvor overvågningen af kvinder gik ud på nøjagtig det modsatte, dvs. de blev overvåget helt ind i det mest intime privatliv, for at man kunne være sikker på, at de ikke fik foretaget abort.
Let us also remember Romania, where the supervision of women had precisely the opposite purpose, in other words the most intimate areas of their lives were watched over to make sure that they did not have abortions.
Nu til det egentlige spørgsmål. Baggrunden er jo en massiv påvirkning af den indenrigspolitiske tyske debat, som er udløst af den planlagte nyformulering af loven som følge af den tyske forening.
As for the subject itself, the background to it is a massive campaign to influence the policy debate within Germany which has been triggered by the planned redrafting of the law because of German unification.
Intet andet er grunden til det.
There is no other reason for the subject being raised.
Sagen har intet at gøre med menneskerettigheder, derimod drejer det sig om sær tilfælde.
It has nothing to do with human rights, but involves special circumstances.
I to tilfælde, som ikke blev bragt i omløb af de tyske myndigheder, forholdt man sig på behørig vis.
In two cases which were not initiated by the German authorities, the correct procedures were applied.
De udgjorde dog en lovovertrædelse, som var blevet åbenlys af de grunde, som fru Keppelhoff-Wiechert fremsatte.
They certainly revealed a breach of the law which had become obvious, for the reasons outlined by Mrs Keppelhoff-Wiechert.
Det, jeg siger, er, at abort alt for ofte er et påskud for at ydmyge kvinderne.
So I would say that all too often, abortion serves as a pretext for humiliating women.
Så snart de er under mistanke, har man ingen respekt for deres person, og man forestiller sig, at man kan tage sig alle mulige rettigheder over deres krop.
As soon as they come under suspicion, no respect is shown for their persons and you would think other people had every right over their bodies.
Jeg gentager igen og igen, at kvinder har de fulde rettighed over deres krop, at de kan gøre med den, hvad de vil, og at myndighederne ikke har nogen som helst rettigheder, når det gælder deres krop. Den skal respekteres på linje med mandens.
I shall repeat to the last that women have every right over their bodies, that they can do with them as they like, and that bureaucracy has no rights at all over their bodies, which must be respected just as much as those of men!
Jeg er målløs efter at have hørt vore tyske kolleger, for jeg troede, vi i dag drøftede det med det formål at finde ud af, om det var sandt eller ikke, at de har forsvaret denne skændige praksis!
I am astounded after listening to my German colleagues, because I thought the point of today's debate was to see whether these things were true or not, and they have justified these shameful practices!
Formanden. — Forhandlingen under ét er afsluttet.
That has to be made absolutely clear.
Det er den sande kerne i denne forhandling.
The joint debate is closed.
Rådets tilstedeværelse under Parlamentets møder
Attendance by Council at EP debates
B3-0457/91 af Price m.fl. om Rådets deltagelse i Europa-Parlamentets møder;
We will not let others dictate to us what our consciences have to say.
Veil (LDR). — (FR) Hr. formand, kære kolleger, det er ikke abort, det drejer sig om her.
Our conscience tells us to protect women and to protect the unborn child.
Vi kender udmærket teksterne om subsidiaritet, og jeg for mit vedkommende nægter her at tale om europæisk lovgivning om abortspørgsmål.
Let it be said quite clearly here: the German Parliament has to be allowed to decide on these matters according to its Members' consciences and without a massive campaign to influence it from outside.
Hvad har egentlig valget af en fællesskabsinstitutions hjemsted at gøre med interesserne blandt befolkningerne i Fællesskabet?
We know the texts concerning subsidiarity perfectly well, and I for one am not prepared to talk here about Community legislation on abortion.
Alligevel har afgørelserne om en række fællesskabsinstitutioner, f.eks.
Since when, on questions of human rights, have we talked about subsidiarity ?
Det Europæiske Miljøkontor, været blokeret i lang tid, og man får det indtryk, at Rådet ikke vil træffe nogen afgørelse, før der er oprettet tolv nye institutioner, hvis hjemsteder kan fordeles.
This morning we shall be discussing human rights in every corner of the world, but can we not talk about them when the Community is concerned ? I know it's not the first time: when our own countries are involved, we are always a good deal more cautious, and in many respects we are very hypocritical.
Kun Parlamentet kan bedømme sine præcise behov, og det er op til Rådet at opfylde forpligtelsen til gensidigt samarbejde.
What does the choice of the seat of a Community institution actually have to do with the interests of the peoples of the Community ?
Det bør som led i denne forpligtelse deltage i møder, som vi anser for at være nødvendige.
VON DER VRING until twelve new bodies have been created, whose seats can then be evenly divided.
Det betyder selvfølgelig ikke, at en specifik minister skal deltage med kort varsel.
I would remind the House that there have been various challenges to our rights, both legal and political.
Men det betyder virkelig, at Rådet som institution er behørigt repræsenteret alt efter omstændighederne.
All so far have failed. However, it was never considered necessary by Parliament's former jurisconsult to state fully and clearly Parliament's rights in actions before the Court of Justice.
For øjeblikket kan vi kun klare problemet marginalt ved at afholde møder uden afstemninger i Bruxelles.
While the plenary has always declared our freedom to meet where and when we choose, the jurisconsult pleaded only that our existing or proposed activities did not exceed the limits which the other party asserted.
Næste år får vi en mødesal der og bliver i stand til at opnå meget mere i de europæiske borgeres interesse.
So our basic rights have never been put to the European Court or adjudicated by it.
Dagens frustrationer kan gøres til morgendagens præstationer, men kun hvis Parlamentet holder fast ved sine rettigheder, og Rådet accepterer behovet for at samarbejde med os.
However, it is clear that those rights are inherent in the European Parliament and are also ones which we have under Community law.
Det seneste eksempel på denne række er rådsformandens afvisning af at deltage i to parlaments møder i Bruxelles.
The latest example on this front is the refusal of the President-in-Office of the Council to participate in two sittings of Parliament in Brussels.
Vi har taget den pågældende erklæring fra rådsformanden til efterretning.
We have taken note of the statement made by the President-in-Office on this subject.
Parlamentets formand har ret til Rådets tilstedeværelse, som skal stå til ansvar over for os.
The President of our Parliament is entitled to ask the Council to be present, since it is obliged to account to us for its actions.
Det er enhver rådsformands pligt at repræsentere Rådet i Parlamentet.
It is the duty of each President-in-Office to represent the Council here in Parliament.
Lige så lidt som et rådsmedlem gennem sin vetoret kan hindre og forbyde indkaldelsen af en rådssamling, lige så lidt kan det tillades, at Rådets tilstedeværelse i Europa-Parlamentet gøres afhængig af rådsmedlemmernes tilsagn.
Just as a member of the Council can hardly use its right of veto to obstruct or prevent the convening of a Council meeting, so it is hardly acceptable for the presence of the Council in the European Parliament to be made conditional on the agreement of Council members.
I betragtning af rådsformandens officielle erklæring må Parlamentet give et tydeligt svar.
In the light of the formal statement by the President-in-Office, Parliament has to give a clear response.
Det drejer sig juridisk set om en begrænsning af Parlamentets rettigheder og politisk set om en demonstrativ foragt for Parlamentet.
In legal terms, Parliament's rights are being curtailed, and in political terms this is a clear snub for Parliament.
Jeg foreslår Parlamentet at bringe dette til udtryk ved at støtte det fælles kompromis beslutningsforslag.
I would propose to the House that we demonstrate this by adopting the joint motion for a resolution which has been tabled.
Jeg håber, at Parlamentet vedtager kompromisforslaget med samme overvældende flertal, hvormed det i går vedtog at sætte spørgsmålet på sin dagsorden. den.
No, it has to be said that there is a clear, strong and unequivocal majority in the European Parliament in support of two things.
Næstformand
MARTIN
Price (ED). — (EN) Hr. formand, hvis man lavede en liste over et parlaments grundlæggende rettigheder, ville den første være retten til at afholde møde, hvor og når det finder det nødvendigt.
PRICE (ED). — Mr President, if one listed the fundamental rights of a parliament the first would be the right to meet where and when it considers necessary.
Jo stærkere Parlamentets demokratiske kreditiver er, desto tyde ligere er denne ret.
The stronger the democratic credentials of this Parliament, the more obvious is that right.
Den første er, at Rådet har pligt til at forklare sig her i forsamlingen, uanset hvor vore møder afholdes.
The first is that the Council has a duty to address us, wherever our meetings are held.
Formandskabets krig mod Parlamentet i Bruxelles er uværdig.
The campaign waged against Parliament in Brussels by the presidency is unworthy of it.
Striden om, hvor det skal have sæde, er sågar blevet til en strid om gader, for man accepterede et møde, afholdt i rue Charlemagne, mens Rådet ville have forbudt det, dersom det havde fundet sted i rue Belliard.
The battle over the seat has even turned into a street-fight, since a meeting held in rue Charlemagne was accepted, whereas if it had taken place in rue Belliard, it would have been subject to an embargo from the Council.
Denne holdning tjener ikke noget formål, tværtimod tror jeg, formandskabet spilder tiden, og Europa har virkelig for meget at tage sig til, til at det på den måde kan ødsle med sin energi og sin troværdighed.
Such an attitude achieves nothing; on the contrary, I think the presidency is wasting its time, and Europe really has too much to do to dissipate its energy and credibility in this way.
Den anden idé er, at vi allerede har sagt, at vi ønsker at forbedre vore arbejdsbetingelser.
The second thing is that we have already said that we want to improve our working conditions.
Forhandlingen i dag afspejler den stigende frustration i Parlamentet over vore arbejdsforhold.
The debate today reflects growing frustration in Parliament about our working conditions.
Vi kan ikke længere arbejde med kun én uge med plenarmøder hver måned.
We can no longer operate with only one week of plenary sittings each month.
Vi har brug for en bedre fordeling af vor mødekalender med møder i mindst to af de øvrige uger af måneden.
We need a better distribution of our pattern of meetings, with sittings during at least two of the other weeks of the month.
Endvidere er det klart, at vi kun kan afholde sådanne møder i Bruxelles.
Furthermore, it is clear that we can only hold such sittings in Brussels.
Europa-Parlamentets forhandlinger
For those reasons the European Parliament cannot accept the high-handed approach of the Council under the pressure of one Member State.
Jeg takker for Deres opmærksomhed, og jeg vil gerne slutte med at sige, at flertallet af os ikke er parat til hverken at godtage eller gennemføre Rådets diktater.
Thank you for your attention, and I should like to end by saying that the majority of us are not prepared to accept or apply the dictates of the Council.
Det skal Ministerrådet bare vide!
The Council of Ministers has to know that!
Når det er sagt, så tror jeg, Parlamentet er nødt til at sætte sig i respekt, ikke blot når det drejer sig om institutionernes hjemsted, men især når det drejer sig om de politiske problemer, der drøftes her i forsamlingen, og hvor Rådet tager ordet.
CHANTERIE (PPE). — (NL) Mr President, in the middle of the Gulf War, the Council held Parliament up to ridicule in a way that was unacceptable to the EPP Group.
I den henseende vil jeg gøre opmærksom på, at disse kendsgerninger i sidste ende er afslørende for en almen holdning i Rådet til Parlamentet.
For the first time since diteet elections, the Council refused to participate in the sittings of the European Parliament.
Jeg tror derfor, det er vigtigt, at Parlamentet klart siger, at den ånd, Rådet handler i på dette område, må ændres.
Only Parliament can judge its precise needs and it is up to the Council to fulfil the obligation of mutual cooperation.
Trivelli (GUE). — (IT) Hr. formand, i forslagene til beslutning understreges rigtige og sakrosante ting, lige til grænsen for det åbenbare.
They, in the course of that obligation, should attend sessions which we deem necessary.
Det er ligefrem næsten pinligt at tale om det.
Of course, that does not mean a specific Minister attending at short notice.
Chanterie (PPE). — (NL) Hr. formand, midt under Golfkrigen har Rådet latterliggjort Parlamentet på en for PPE-gruppen uacceptabel måde.
It does mean the Council as an institution being properly represented according to all the circumstances.
For første gang i det direkte valgte Parlaments historie har Rådet nægtet at deltage i Europa-Parlamentets møder.
For the time being we can only tackle the problem at the margins, by holding non-voting activities in Brussels.
Dette er sket efter pres fra en af medlemsstaterne, der har gjort indsigelse mod mødestedet. Rådets formand oplæste den 20. februar en erklæring, der vil kunne medføre, at Rådet, hver gang et land ønsker at boykotte et møde i Europa-Parlamentet, er fraværende.
Next year we shall have a hémicycle there and will be able to achieve much mote in the interest of Europe's citizens.
PPE-gruppen fordømmer denne yderst negative holdning og beklager, at nogen på ny vil gøre det til et hjemstedsspørgsmål.
EPP Group condemns this extremely negative attitude, and regrets that some people once again want to turn this into a question of the seat.
Det er rigtigt, at Parlamentet har fuld ret til at fastsætte sted og tidspunkt for sine møder, og Rådet har en politisk og moralsk forpligtelse til at deltage i dem, men Rådets fravær fra møderne i Bruxelles den 30. januar og den 6. februar er alligevel et særlig relevant element. Jeg vil kritisere og dadle dette gentagne fravær: Det var en alvorlig fejl i betragtning af det problem, som man drøftede ved disse møder, nemlig Golfkrigen og mulighederne for, at Europa kunne påtage sig en aktiv rolle i denne krise.
It is perfectly true that Parliament is fully entitled to set the date and venue of its sittings and that the Council has a political and moral obligation to take part in them, but the Council's absence from the sittings in Brussels on 30 January and 6 February is of particular importance.
Hr. formand, det drejer sig her ikke om et hjem stedsspørgsmål.
Mr President, this is not a question of the seat.
For PPE-gruppen drejer det sig primært om, at institutionerne fungerer godt i demokratiets interesse.
For the EPP Group, it is essentially a question of the smooth functioning of the institutions for the benefit of democracy.
I artikel 5 i EØF-Traktaten for pligter medlemsstaterne sig til at afholde sig fra at træffe foranstaltninger, der er egnede til at bringe virkeliggørelsen af Traktatens målsætning i fare.
In Article 5 of the EEC Treaty, the Member States undertake to abstain from any measure which could jeopardize the attainment of the objectives of the Treaty.
Domstolen har allerede i forskellige domme henvist til, at denne forpligtelse til loyalt samarbejde a for tiori også eksisterer for fællesskabsinstitutionerne selv.
The Court of Justice has already pointed out in various judgments that this duty of loyal cooperation also applies a fortiori to the institutions of the Community itself.
Rådet har pligt til at stå til regnskab over for Europa-Parlamentet, og forpligtelsen til at deltage i Parlamentets møder er uløseligt forbundet med funktionen som formand for Rådet ifølge beslutningsforslagets punkt 2.
The Council is accountable to the European Parliament, and the obligation to attend the sittings of the European Parliament is inseparable from the function of presidency of the Council, as stated in paragraph 2 of the resolution.
Dette fravær var alvorligt, gentager jeg, og det var et yderligere vidnesbyrd om Rådets given afkald på at spille en effektiv fredsskabende rolle i Mellemøsten.
More generally, I should like to express my surprise, and also that of the EPP Group, at the not particularly European attitude of the socialist minister Mr Poos, particularly since we know for sure that the views on Europe of the Christian-Democratic ministers in Luxembourg are totally different, in other words positive and constructive.
Mere generelt vil jeg gerne også på PPE-gruppens vegne udtrykke forundring over den socialistiske minister Poos' lidet europæiske holdning, især da vi bestemt ved, at den europæiske holdning hos de luxembourgske kristeligdemokratiske ministre er helt anderledes, nemlig positiv og konstruktiv.
The Commission then submitted a weak draft regulation. Parliament tried to improve this regulation considerably, but the Council did not want to know, and adopted an extremely weak regulation which cannot, however, enter into force because as a result of the blackmail by France over the position of Strasbourg as the seat of the European Parliament, which has nothing to do with the Environment Agency, the Council will not take a decision on the seat.
PPE-gruppen opfordrer Rådet og rådsformanden til straks at indstille deres bureaukratiske holdning og enhver form for juristeri og til helt at respektere den europæiske folkerepræsentation.
What is even worse, the Commission, which also made an internal proposal on this subject, has barred the Agency from starting work provisionally in the Commission's offices.
Lannoye (V). — (FR) Hr. formand, min gruppe vil stemme for det fælles beslutningsforslag, der er lagt frem.
LANNOYE (V). — (FR) Mr President, my group will vote in favour of the joint resolution now before us.
Det, der er foregået i Parlamentet under Golfkrigen, er en skændsel.
What has happened in Parliament during this war in the Gulf is shameful.
Holdningen i Rådet, der ikke har vist sig, selv om det er forpligtet til det i medfør af Traktaterne, er uacceptabel, og det er en god ting at erindre herom.
The attitude of the Council, which has not been present despite its obligations under the Treaties, is unacceptable, and it is right for this to be pointed out.
Muntingh (S). — (NL) Hr. formand, for et par år siden lancerede Rådet under stor ståhej ideen om et europæisk miljøkontor og gjorde det til et prydstykke, der vidnede om Rådets miljøvenlige hold ning.
Having said that, I think Parliament must ensure respect for itself not just where the seat of the institutions is concerned, but especially when we are dealing with political issues which are discussed in this House and on which the Council comes to speak.
Hvad værre er, så har det forbudt Kommissionen, der internt har fremsat et forslag herom, midlertidigt at påbegynde miljøkontorets arbejde i Kommissionens lokaler.
The Council avoided some very pertinent questions, and did so with a contemptuous attitude which I find unacceptable.
På Rådets holdning vil jeg ikke spilde et eneste ord mere, den er for miserabel, men jeg vil godt sige noget om Kommissionens holdning.
I do not wish to waste any more words on the Council's position, it is too pathetic, but I should like to say something about that of the Commission.
Jeg mener, at Rådet binder Kommissionen noget på ærmet.
I feel that the Commission is letting itself be made a fool of by the Council.
Den juridiske situation er således, at der findes en forordning, der ikke er komplet, og som ikke må anvendes fra Rådet.
The legal situation is that there is a regulation which has not been completed and which the Council is unable to apply.
Desuden har Europa-Parlamentet opført penge på budgettet til oprettelse af miljøkontoret, og det har erklæret sig indforstået med kontoret.
In addition, the European Parliament has put funds in the budget to set up the Agency and has stated that it agrees with the idea.
Intet forhindrer således Kommissionen i at negligere Rådet og begynde med miljøkontoret i sine tjeneste grene.
So there is nothing to stop the Commission ignoring the Council and starting up the Environment Agency in its own offices.
Jeg anmoder eftertrykkeligt Kommissionen om at starte med det nu, at vise et vist mod ved at tilsidesætte Rådet og ikke fejt danse efter Rådets pibe.
I would urge the Commission to set up this Agency now, to show some courage by being sharp with the Council and not adopting a cowardly attitude towards it.
Kommissionen har en uafhængig position både i forhold til Rådet og i forhold til Parlamentet og må handle således, hvis den ikke vil bebrejdes, at den er et kraftløst institut, der er intet mere og intet mindre end en tro håndlanger for et miljø-uvenligt Råd.
The Commission has an independent position as regards both the Council and Parliament, and should therefore take action if it wishes to avoid being criticized as an impotent institution that is no more and no less than the obedient tool of an environmentally-unfriendly Coun­cil.
Andriessen, næstformand i Kommissionen. — (NL) Hr. formand, jeg har ikke bedt om ordet for at blande mig i denne debat mellem Parlamentet og Rådet.
So, Mr President, I feel it is important for Parliament to state clearly that the Council's approach to these matters has to be modified.
