With regard to a common electoral system for the European Parliament elections, will the Council state :
FORSÆDE : LORD PLUMB Formand
President
Her vil jeg blot sige, at denne procedure er indledt på grund af et angiveri, som er resultatet af en barbarisering af det politiske liv, som desværre alt for ofte finder sted i mit land.
— what committee is working on the matter at present, wish these to be the last elections to be held without a common system.
Formanden. — Protokollen fra mødet i går omdelt.
ELLIOTT (S). — For once I am rather in sympathy with the Commission's attitude.
Hvis ingen gør indsigelse, betragter jeg den som godkendt.
Indeed I doubt if you could devise something that could be identical in every country.
Jeg kan følgelig tilslutte mig hr. Grazianis anmodning, selv om det naturligvis har relation til et helt andet anliggende.
I would also like to ask for an assurance that the Commission will not proceed any further with this matter until after the June European elections to allow the newly elected Parliament to submit its views.
Formanden. — På Parlamentets vegne byder jeg hjerteligt velkommen til vore ungarske venner under ledelse af hr. Matyas Szuros, formand for Udenrigsudvalget.
SOLBES MIRA — (ES) This is even more difficult than the last question, as I am being asked to reply on behalf of the Commission.
Vi har under de sidste to mødeperioder oplevet, at denne artikel mildest talt kan misbruges, og jeg anser det ikke for godt, at vi i en sådan situation hver gang må henvise til beslutningsdygtigheden for at få mulighed for at fortsætte forhandlingen, selv om afstemningen endnu ikke finder sted.
I take note of this point of order regarding the statements made to a Spanish newspaper by the permanent representative of Spain to the European Communities.
Det er det første officielle besøg, som en delegation fra Ungarn aflægger Europa-Parlamentet.
Certainly some of the expressions used in those statements are not appropriate in referring to honourable Members of this Assembly; on the other hand I have no doubt of the respect felt by the Spanish representative for each and every one of the Members of this Parliament.
Vi håber, at det vil bane vej for en langt snævrere forbindelse mellem os og mellem vore respektive institutioner.
I am therefore sure that the Spanish Ambassador was not at any moment thinking of insulting the Spanish Members as suggested in the point of order.
Jeg beder derfor om, at man undersøger, om denne artikel ikke lader sig ændre i den forstand, at der kun kan anmodes om henvisning til fornyet udvalgs behandling lige inden afstemningen, således at der til en vis grad er sikkerhed for, at forhandling og afstemning kan gennemføres som planlagt.
PRESIDENT. — I call Mr Suárez Gonzales in con nection with the statement he made on Monday, at the beginning of the sitting, and which was answered by the President-in-Office of the Council.
Jeg mindes med stor glæde mit yderst positive besøg i Deres smukke land og den måde, jeg blev modtaget på.
Having said that, I will now reply to Mrs Ewing's question.
Det er en sag for Udvalget for Forretningsordenen, Valgs Prøvelse og Medlemmernes Immunitet, og det bør tage sig af denne sag.
The Secretary of State knows our regard and respect for his work and we much regret the incident.
Formanden. — Næste punkt på dagsordenen er forhandling under ét om
EWING (RDE). — I would like to welcome the President-in-Office.
Formanden. — Jeg har fra de italienske myndigheder modtaget en anmodning om ophævelse af hr. Grazianis og hr. Negris immunitet.
But even so, the United Kingdom has public relations in Northern Ireland, which makes it a little bit illogical.
I overensstemmelse med artikel 5, stk. 1, i Forretningsordenen er denne anmodning henvist til Udvalget for Forretningsordenen, Valgs Prøvelse og Med lemmernes Immunitet.
Subject: Increase in the guaranteed production quotas for cotton
A2-348/88) af Seeler for Udvalget om Institutionelle Spørgsmål om forbindelserne mellem de nationale parlamenter og Europa-Parlamentet.
She is asking neither more nor less than whether we shall be able to reach in time an agreement for subsequent elections to the Euro pean Parliament to be conducted according to a com mon system.
') Debat om aktuelle og uopsættelige spørgsmål af væsentlig betydning (indsigelser) : se protokollen.
In view of the worldwide increase in consumer demand for cotton clothing and fabrics, and given the fact that Community cotton production meets only 20% of the needs of the Community market and that cotton producers pay a heavy co-responsibility levy (20% of the target price in 1988), does the Council intend to increase the guaranteed production quotas (which have been fixed at 752 000 tonnes since 1985) at least up to the present level of Community production (1 100 000
Den første er økonomisk: Afskaffelse af kontrollen ved de indre grænser.
No such point is included in the repon I have referred to; consequently we shall have to abide by it and act accordingly.
Enten bliver det til noget, og så skal den således skabte helhed forvaltes, hvilket indebærer en institutionel ændring, eller også bliver det ikke til noget, og så må man overveje en ændring af Den Fælles Akt.
Of course if the Commission at any time thinks it right to alter that position the Council will study it to see what course is possible and acceptable.
Aftalen fra Bruxelles topmødet i februar 1988, der skal gælde i fem år, udløber på dette tidspunkt.
PRESIDENT. — Since they deal with similar topics, Questions Nos 68 and 69 will be taken together.
Man kan ikke kræve, at de nationale ministre skal være helgener eller helte og ofre deres politiske karriere på Fællesskabets alter.
The regulation provides amongst other things for the Commission to submit to the Council a report on the operation of the present system of aid.
Man behøver blot at se på det, der sker nu, hvor finansministrene står ansigt til ansigt med den skattemæssige harmonisering.
That report has now reached the Council but in it the Commission does not propose any increase in the guaranteed production level.
Man ender i den utrolige situation, at repræsentanten for et land med højst 350 000 indbyggere modsætter sig og truer med at benytte vetoretten — i hvert fald hvis man skal tro aviserne — for at forsvare nationale interesser, til trods for at skatte mæssig harmonisering er en nødvendighed, der er til fordel for 320 millioner borgere.
Given the fact that no progress was made on matters relating to the single social area during the Greek presidency, what practical measures has the Spanish presidency taken towards this objective and when specifically will the Council of Ministers responsible for social affairs meet to consider the single social area?
Her er der tale om et usædvanligt paradoks, som bør ændres.
Question No 69 by Mr Calvo Ortega (H-911/88):
Anden grund: Fra juli 1990 liberaliseres kapitalmarkederne totalt.
ALAVANOS (COM). — (GR) I am not at all satisfied by the answer given by the Minister, who comes from a country which, like Greece, produces cotton.
I mangel af en omfattende udbygning af Det Europæiske Monetære System vil bevarelse af tolv forskellige valutaer, der hver er underlagt sin egen valutapolitik, afføde paritetsjusteringer, som uvægerligt vil indebære genindførelse af valutakontrollen i lande med svag valuta.
As he knows, whether in Seville or in Karditsa there is serious unrest among the cotton producers.
For at sikre urokkelige pariteter må man have en europæisk valutamyndighed, der står til ansvar over for en europæisk politisk myndighed.
And I would like to ask: so far as the Council's representative and the Spanish Government's representative is concerned, is the fact that the Commission proposes no increases in the production quotas an end of the matter?
Hverken den ene eller den anden kan opstå fra ingen ting uden en omfattende institutionel ændring eller indgåelse af en ny traktat, hvis et eller andet land, hvilket sandsynligvis bliver tilfældet, skulle mene, at the time is not right.
Could not the governments concerned, the Presidency of the Council, Spanish as it is, take related initiatives, especially not that the subject of prices and associated measures is under discussion?
For det tredje kan oprettelse af verdens største frie marked ikke undgå af afføde undertiden ret vold somme reaktioner i den øvrige verden, hvilket vi allerede oplever nu.
There is a clear need for specific action in the field of social cohesion.
For at klare disse spændinger med succes uden at ødelægge det store marked må man have en europæisk udøvende myndighed, der er i stand til at træffe beslutninger uden i månedsvis at skulle vente på et hypotetisk mandat til at handle fra et mange gange splittet Råd, som i sagens natur er uformående.
The European Social Charter would undoubtedly represent a major step for ward for the European Community in this important sphere.
Jeg skal ikke uddybe den femte og sjette grund, da mine kolleger hr. Toussaint og sir Fred Catherwood allerede har gjort det så glimrende i deres betænk ninger om det demokratiske underskud og omkostningerne ved » Ejropa «.
SOLBES MIRA — (ES) As a Spaniard I should like to be able to increase the cotton quotas but as President of the Council I have to observe Community pro cedures meticulously.
Da vi har gode grunde til at foreslå en ny tilpasning af Traktaterne, hvordan skal man så komme igennem med den?
As the honourable Member is well aware, the only way the Council could discuss this matter would be if there were a proposal from the Commission.
Det er illusorisk at tro, som nogle gjorde det en overgang, at man kan få de nationale parlamenter til at ratificere et udkast til forfatning, som går hen over hovedet på regeringerne.
The Council will consider the Commission's report, which I have just mentioned, but I must repeat that so far the Commission has not drawn up any proposal in this respect.
Det er altså dem, der skal øves pres på ved at angribe dem bagfra, ved at støtte sig til deres egen opinion, deres eget parlament, deres egne vitale kræfter og deres egne fagforeninger.
With regard to the Spanish Presidency's programme on the creation of a European social area I should like to refer you to the Presidency's speech on the occassion of the presentation of that programme.
Meningsundersøgelserne, Eurobarometer, viser, at borgerne er med os i dette slag, i dette langvarige og vanskelige forehavende.
DESSYLAS (COM). — (GR) I too was dissatisfied with the answer given by the Council's President-in-Office.
Parlamentet ville gøre forkert i — jeg siger bevidst »ville gøre forkert i«, hr. Sutra, for at fjerne enhver mistanke om afpresning blandt visse af Deres meningsfæller — ikke at benytte sine nye beføjelser i medfør af Den Fælles Akt med henblik på Fællesskabets udvidelse. Det er ikke afpresning.
I will put to him a specific question: even if the Commission does not propose — as indeed it is not proposing, in the context of this year's proposals — to increase quotas for cotton, would the Spanish Presidency agree at least to push for the return of the coresponsibility tax to cotton producers for the first 10 tonnes, as is done with other products, for example the first 25 tonnes in the case of wheat?
Ved at modsætte sig Fællesskabets udvanding til et udefineret frihandelsområde kæmper Parlamentet for sin overleven, for Fællesskabets overleven. Det truer ingen.
EPHREMIDIS (COM). — (GR) I am afraid that the Spanish Presidency which is in office for the first time, is continuing an unacceptable tradition.
Skulle et eller andet land efter disse lange forberedelser og til trods for ophobningen af overvældende bevismateriale alligevel mene ikke at være i stand til at slå ind på den af det store flertal af Europas borgere ønskede vej, da vil nødvendigheden af at overleve og respekten for demokratiet kræve, at vi går videre frem uden dem, idet vi opfordrer dem til at slutte sig til os, når de måtte finde det belejligt.
The Minister refers us to what his predecessor said last December, which was that 'we have not had time and we are handing the matter over to the Spanish Presidency'. dency'.
(Bifald)
SOLBES MIRA. — (ES) I must repeat what I said.
Seeler (S), ordfører. — (DE) Hr. formand, mine damer og herrer, i går var det på dato nøjagtig fem
Please stop this tactic of evasiveness, because you will make fools of
Seeler år siden, at Europa-Parlamentet vedtog udkastet til Traktat om Oprettelse af Den Europæiske Union.
Ephremidis yourselves and lose all credibility when you speak of the single social area.
Den gang blev det besluttet at sende dette traktatudkast til alle nationale parlamenter med anmodning om en udtalelse.
If honourable Members are interested I can mention the subjects we think, in principle, will be discussed at those meetings:
Desuden sendte Udvalget om Institutionelle Spørgsmål mindre delegationer til de nationale parlamenter og i de forskellige hovedstæder drøftede de dette traktatudkast.
SOLBES MIRA. — (ES) I will not go into practices prior to this Presidency, but I can tell you what will be the practice of this one and we have no intention of avoiding any answers at all.
afsluttet sit arbejde for det indre marked. Derefter har de nationale institutioner hele to år til at omsætte disse direktiver til national ret.
As I mentioned earlier, the various specific aspects to which the honourable Member refers were very clearly defined in the Spanish Presidency's programme.
Vi henstiller ikke, at de lejlighedsvise gensidige besøg med vekslende besætning i form af delegationer fortsættes. Vi anser en vis institutionalisering af disse kontakter for uomgængelig nødvendig, hvis de skal være effektive.
I referred back to that speech in order to save time, but there is no reason not to mention the various aspects presented to Parliament.
Man kan sige, at resultatet af de hidtidige kontakter ikke har været helt tilfredsstillende. Nogle parlamenter har afgivet meget detaljerede udtalelser.
As the honourable Member will recall, the following points were raised as important factors — from the Spanish Presidency's point of view — in our efforts to achieve the European social area:
Andre igen har til dato overhovedet ikke besvaret Europa-Parlamentets anmodning.
Special attention will be given to the development of the package of rules on health and safety at work.
Endvidere bør fælles møder mellem de nationale parlamenters og Europa-Parlamentets fagudvalg være muligt for f.eks. at fremme politiske målsætninger på nationalt og på europæisk plan.
Secondly, and from the point of view of cohesion, attaching special importance to employment and inservice vocational training, relying for that purpose on the reform of the structural Funds and more particu larly of the European Social Fund.
Udvalget om Institutionelle Spørgsmål i det Parlament, der vælges i juni, bør indbyde repræsentanter for de nationale parlamenter for at drøfte de videre reformer i Fællesskabet og den nødvendige videreudvikling af integrationen.
Thirdly, to make progress in the important aspects of social protection, such as equal treatment for men and women, social security for migrant workers and economic and social integration of lessfavoured groups.
På denne måde muliggøres efter vor mening ikke kun den gensidige information i god tid, men det letter tillige gennemførelsen af sådanne nødvendige reformer.
Fourthly, to develop and stimulate the European social dialogue so that on the basis of the results obtained we can take further action to harmonize our laws.
Nogle medlemslande har allerede særlige EF- udvalg eller underudvalg eller kommissioner.
As the honourable Member will appreciate, there is no mention of the European Social Charter.
Vi henstiller til alle nationale parlamenter, at de nedsætter et EF-udvalg og gør det muligt for medlemmerne fra de forskellige lande at deltage i Europa-Parlamentets møder med vejledende stemme.
During the Spanish Presidency we should like to make progress in this field but unfortunately such progress does not depend on the wishes of the Spanish Presidency.
Og endelig anser vi det for ønskværdigt, at der gennemføres en udveksling af tjenestemænd mellem parlamenterne for at forbedre samarbejdet også på det administrative plan.
If that report is available in time for the Com mission to draw up a proposal during the Spanish Presidency we shall of course be delighted to start discussions. cussions.
Endvidere forbavser det folk — det må jeg også sige — at høre, at f.eks.
Next, to press on with achieving the freedom of move ment of persons.
Jeg sagde en gang til et medlem af et nationalt parlament: Hvad ville I mon sige, hvis jeres regering stiller sig an og siger mange tak, vi har taget til efterretning, hvad I har vedtaget og vil overveje, om vi vil acceptere det eller ej? Reaktionen er altid stor forbavselse.
I hope I have given sufficient detail of the subjects about which the honourable Member asked me.
Direktiverne skal i de kommende år omsættes til national ret, og også denne proces vil man lette og fremskynde.
Finally to promote the drawing up of a European Social Charter laying down a basis for the rights of workers.
En ting må vi ikke overse: Vi har stadig tid i halvandet til to år, så skal Fællesskabet have
Mr Calvo Ortega may therefore put a supplementary if he so wishes.
Dette er den sidste betænkning, jeg fremlægger som medlem af Europa-Parlamentet.
CALVO ORTEGA (NI). — (ES) I was pleased with the answer given by the President of the Council.
Jeg har fra begyndelsen arbejdet med på de institutionelle reformer og på videreudviklingen af den europæiske integration.
Everything seems to depend on machinery — proposals from the Economic and Social Committee, the
Jeg er helt overbevist om, at Det Europæiske Fælles skab bliver nødt til gradvis at uddybe integrationen og udvide den til også at omfatte nye former for politik.
To attain these objectives the Spanish Presidency has planned two formal meetings of the Council of Ministers for Social Security and one informal meeting, which will take place in Seville in March, as honour able Members perhaps already know, and will be the occasion on which the Ministers for Social Security will present their ideas on defining the concept of a single social area.
Det nye Parlament bør i en dobbeltstrategi gå denne vej for det første for yderligere at forbedre og reformere Rom- Traktaterne og for det andet for at inddrage nye former for politik i den europæiske
We hope the Council meetings in April and June will enable us to make more progress in specific aspects.
Seeler efter sigende allerede have skabt halvanden million arbejdspladser i Det Europæiske Fællesskab.
Calvo Ortega would waste time and would certainly not allow us to reach agreement in time to deal with the European Social Charter as quickly as we all wish.
Jeg håber, hr. formand, mine damer og herrer, at forslagene i min betænkning bidrager til at lette og fremme vejen til Den Europæiske Union.
It is well known that the Council is encountering difficulties in the Economic and Social Com mittee and my question was whether the Council intends to take any action or put forward any views to speed it up.
Sutra de Germa (S). — (FR) Hr. formand, på årsdagen for vedtagelsen af Spinelli- betænkningen er vi på linje med historien, når vi ønsker Den Europæiske Union. Vi er aktuelle, når vi ønsker at udnytte alle Den Fælles Akts muligheder. Vi er på linje med gruppens Europa- valgmanifest og i over ensstemmelse med de største tankestrømniger i Europa.
LENTZ-CORNETTE (PPE). — (FR) I shall endeavour to remain courteous to you, Mr President of the Council, but you should know that Parliament is more than familiar with the directives you have just listed.
For nylig erkendte forbundskansler Kohl eller premierminister Gonzales nødvendigheden af de europæiske reformers institutionelle dimension.
Then the Greek presidency promised come hell or high water to get through the framework directives and the others to which our Greek colleague has just referred.
Der er to punkter i Hermanbetænkningen, der påkalder sig præcis opmærksomhed.
And here you are telling us that we shall have to wait for the Social Charter before anything can be done!
Jeg vil anmode hr. Herman og hans gruppe om af give afkald på punkt 10, der kommer ind på enkelthederne med hensyn til at finde ud af, hvad der sker, hvis der gøres fremskridt med nogle lande, medens andre ikke vil være med, og dersom man knyttede forbindelser med de førstnævnte.
Tell us if you really want to concern yourself with the directives which have been worked out, the directives on harm ful substances and safety at work!
Jeg synes, at det er unødvendigt, og vover at tilføje, gammeldags. Der er som bekendt reformer, som ikke alle kan gå ind for.
We asked for responsible co-management and it was the Spanish com missioner Mr Marin who told us that this was going too far and that what was needed was balanced coop eration, or in German 'eine ausgewogene Mitwirkung', in other words nothing at all!
Det er en kendt sag, at Det Europæiske Monetære System ikke omfatter samtlige medlemsstater.
SOLBES MIRA. — (ES) We shall analyse fully the possibilities offered by Article 145 of the Treaty because the Presidency is very interested in speeding this matter up.
Snart bliver det ECU-emissions- og garantibanken, snart valutaen.
However, in spite of any possibilities that article may offer, I think it would be hard for us to circumvent the procedures at present laid down.
Ikke alle Fællesskabets medlemsstater vil være med, men Udvalget om Institutionelle Spørgsmål kan ikke andet end affinde sig dermed.
I think it would be taken very much amiss if the Com mission made its proposal on the Social Charter when a report has been requested from the Economic and Social Committee and before that report is available.
Det vækker gamle debatter til live, som ikke længere har nogen interesse, om Europa i to tempi.
It therefore seems to us that the most logical method, although it takes longer, is to carry on with what is envisaged at present.
Derfor vil vi gerne have, at det kommer ud af betænkningen. For os er det for øvrigt et uforanderligt punkt.
That is, to wait for the Economic and Social Committee's report and have the Commission's proposal as soon as possible.
Betænkningens største nyskabelse er dens punkt 9, der sætter en eventuelt udvidelse i forbindelse med institutionelle reformer, og jeg er hr. Herman tak nemmelig for at have præciseret den ånd, hvori han ser på sagen.
I imagine that when you referred to our Commissioner you were referring to the Vice-President of the Commission, Mr Marin, who is of Spanish nationality but of course plays the part of a Community Commissioner.
Derfor kræver vi heller ikke grundlovgivende beføjelser, og de italienske medlem mer har opgivet tanken om konstituerende beføjelser via folkeafstemning, som ikke ville sige noget, da det er det diametralt modsatte af grundlovgivende magt, men som alligevel skræmte dem, der ikke ønskede den. På den anden side kan vi ikke tolerere stil stand.
In other words we have asked the Commission to work in parallel so that we shall have a final document as soon as possible making use, of course, of what the Economic and Social Committee may pro pose in due course, but avoiding any undue delay for the Commission's proposal, without which the Coun cil cannot begin work on this subject.
For øvrigt er den franske tekst holdt i konditionalis, og det skal påpeges, at vi ikke foregriber noget med hensyn til stemmeafgivelsen i det Parlament, der skal vælges den 18. juni i år.
I should have preferred to spare you from hearing that list, but seeing that there was some interest in knowing the subject in detail it seemed to me appropriate to go through it.
Beskatningen : Det er nævnt i Den Fælles Akt, at der skal være enstemmighed, men som bekendt er der flere lande, der overhovedet ikke vil have, at der tales derom.
Does the President-in-Office agree with this statement as regards the relations between the Council and the European Confederation of Trade Unions?
Kan Den Fælles Akt af sig selv gå ud over sine egne grænser og føre os frem til Den Europæiske Union?
As regards the substances of the matter the position is very clear.
