Fra begge sider bør der være en god kontrol. Derfor var det meget opmuntrende, som det for nylig blev meddelt os, at f.eks. den polske statsrevision er en af de bedste organisationer, og at administrationen i Ungarn gennemfører en meget eksemplarisk egenkontrol.
Is it not likely that this Parliament, which is hardly the most effective of institutions, will become even less so, and how are the voters going to react when they see us increasing our numbers, bearing in mind that in two recent instances, first the Gulf and now Yugoslavia, we have failed to show up as an effective influence in the world ?
Det vellykkede udfald af alle vore programmer, og det gælder uden undtagelse for alt det, vi gør over for Central- og Østeuropa, afhænger af Fællesskabets troværdighed.
PŒRMONT (ARC). — (DE) It is now a year since the Federal Republic swallowed up the GDR.
På grundlag af vore seneste erfaringer må jeg dog med virkelig dyb beklagelse sige, at Fællesskabets troværdighed blev skadet meget som følge at dets svage holdning over for hændelserne i Jugoslavien.
For the time being it is finding this mouthful rather difficult to digest but in the medium term it will strengthen the Greater Germany and is already making it feel more cocky.
Mange forstår endnu slet ikke, hvor alvorligt en enorm prestige, som vi med rette kunne have været stolte over, blev skadet, fordi Fællesskabet ikke har ført en klar politik, men har begrænset sig til klicheer, fordi navnlig Rådet lagde en yderst beklagelig holdning for dagen: Med snak har man endnu aldrig afværget et massemord!
My ears are still ringing with the protestations of Members from the Federal Republic that they are not trying to increase German influence in the EC or in the EP.
Vi kan selvfølgelig ikke tvinge landene til samarbejde.
Who in this Chamber is taking a serious look at the real problems in Germany ?
Det er ikke vor opgave at angive hvilke ægteskaber, de har mulighed for at indgå indbyrdes.
When will our former rapporteur from the committee on Germany submit a resolution that condemns the trustees' economically and socially destructive function as being contrary to morality ?
Men vi kan i hvert fald gennem PHARE-program met tilskynde dem dertil, f.eks. ved at tilbyde et væsentligt tilskud til støtten til de lande, der accepterer at blive en del af en handelsmæssig, finansiel eller politisk helhed — eller alle tre ting på én gang. Ved at gøre det vil både de og vi drage flere fordele.
When will we seriously tackle the explosion of radical rightwing policies in Germany?
Fordele ved administrationen af vor egen støtte, hvis de pågældende slår sig sammen for at forhandle med os og for at fordele støtten indbyrdes i stedet for at hengive sig til en uheldig overbudspolitik, økonomiske fordele, fordi disse lande umiddelbart skal indføre markedsøkonomi i et område på f.eks.
But at the same time we do not want this discussion to delay the solution of the question of reforming the electoral system with a view to a Europe-wide proportional electoral system or to overshadow the question of the distribution of powers between the European Parliament, the Commission and the Council, or the question of regional participation, or the question of genuine federalism in Europe.
100 mio. forbrugere frem for i en lille stat på 10 mio. Valutariske fordele: For de lande, som ikke kan tillade sig selvforsyning, som mangler valuta, ser multilateralisering af betalingerne ud til at være en nødvendig fase, og det bliver nemmere for os at hjælpe dem dertil. Og endelig, og dermed slutter jeg, politiske fordele.
We urgently need democratic reforms in the European Community and in that respect it is not very important whether 81 or 99 German Members are represented in this Parliament.
Ved at lære sammen at løse deres fælles problemer, først de økonomiske og dernæst de politiske, vil disse lande nyde godt af gruppearbejdets pædagogik, som har været en kolossal velgerning for vort Fællesskab, hovedbestanddelen af udsoningen mellem vore lande.
The solution reads: why show any false consideration, given that the call for more influence in the EP for Greater Germany can be packaged so pleasingly.
Lamassoure (LDR). — (FR) Hr. kommissær, kære kolleger, de nye mellemeuropæiske demokratier begynder at få øjnene op for deres interesse i at finde nye former for indbyrdes samarbejde. Jeg hentyder til de famlende trekantforretninger, men navnlig til det seneste møde i Krakow mellem polske, tjekko
ALLIOT-MARIE (RDE). — (FR) Madam President, I have nothing to add to what Mr Nordmann has just said so persuasively about the feelings of unease at the changing of positions from the commitments originally given, but I do remember having heard in this Chamber and in committee that German unification would leave the balance in our Parliament completely unchanged and that having observers was simply a way of avoiding the need to hold elections until the normal time came round, when everything would be settled.
Moorhouse (ED). — (EN) Hr. formand, jeg er meget glad for, at et stort antal kolleger her fra
The first is a question of principle, since the principle on which representation in this Parliament is
I betragtning af at disse kernekraftværker som helhed ikke yder Europa sikkerhed, er det nødvendigt med et program til og omlægning af de termiske produktionsenheder, så man radikalt kan mindske indvirkningen på luftforureningen.
DESAMA (S). — (FR) Madam President, this after noon's debate might appear to be of rather minor importance and, not to put too fine a point on it, anachronistic, when one considers the upheavals that are going on in the former Communist bloc.
Parlamentet har taget initiativ til denne debat. Jeg mener, at vi her i Parlamentet har behov for en gang imellem at se på, hvordan det går med PHARE-programmet, eftersom det, når alt kommer til alt, er så afgørende vigtigt for Øst- og Centraleuropas økonomiske overlevelse.
In fact, we have not got out of step with history since in adopting a motion that calls for the people of the former GDR to be given parliamentary representation, we shall be setting the seal on the democratic process without which it can be assumed that nothing of what we have seen over the past two years would have happened.
Vi finder det uacceptabelt at anvende PHARE i forbindelse med kernekraftanlæg, der er anerkendt som usikre, men vi finder, at kommissær Andriessens forslag med hensyn til det bulgarske værk er udtryk for en funktionel kynisme, eftersom det vil fjerne riskoen uden nogen plan.
Ciphers have become people again and want to see this reflected, for instance by choosing Berlin, the capital of the Bismarck and Nazi rules, as their capital city again, by transferring the corpse of the Prussian King Frederick, who was responsible for the Silesian war and the partition of Poland, to Berlin with military honours as a symbol of German continuity or by sweeping the collective responsibility for twelve years of Nazi horrors under the table and building supermarkets on the sites of former concentration camps.
Jeg vil gerne her spørge hr. Andriessen: Med udsigt til den kommende vinter, hvad skal vi gøre?
It is against this backcloth that we must view the pogrom mood that has prevailed in Germany for some weeks.
I øjeblikket spilder vi faktisk de europæiske borgeres penge, mens De sætter Deres lid til Det Internationale Energiagentur, som søger at fremme kernekraften og dermed klart er part i sagen.
So I object to any increase in the number of German Members of the European Parliament.
Heldigvis har Kommissionen i den senere tid været meget mere imødekommende, nu hvor dens første årsrapport om gennemførelsen af økonomisk hjælp til Øst- og Centraleuropa er blevet offentliggjort. .
That Parliament's proposal is in line with democratic principles can scarcely be disputed, and in fact is being disputed by no one. That is not where the problem lies.
Det vil jeg gerne takke den for.
It lies in the way we answer two questions.
Det var også nyttigt i det mindste i REX-Udvalget — ikke i hele Parlamentet, er jeg bange for — at få Kommissionens vejledning, hvis seneste version er dateret 19. juli, og som giver os indsigt i tankegangen og hvordan det hele hænger sammen.
The first is whether it was appropriate for Parliament to take an initiative on a matter that falls within the states' competence. Our answer to an objection on these grounds is, first of all, that a Parliament that is laying claim to the right to choose its own seat has a duty to interfere, so to speak, in the issue of its own composition.
Derfor står vi i forhold til budgettet i år langt bedre rustet til at træffe beslutning om, hvordan vi mener, budgetoverslagene for forpligtelser og bevillinger bør være, selv om det naturligvis er en sag, vi må drøfte ved en anden lejlighed.
But the main point to remember is that German unification is an entirely exceptional case of extension of Community territory other than by the procedure for accession laid down in the treaties.
Vi anmoder derfor om, at de initiativer, der bliver taget, udelukkende bliver helliget projekter vedrørende den rationelle anvendelse af energien, af ved varende energi og af begrænsning af emissionerne.
This does not seem plausible or make sense to the people of Europe, since they know that in democratic constitutional states elections should be not only free and confidential but also equal.
Jeg vil gerne lige kommentere indlægget fra fru Breyer i forbindelse med dette, eftersom hun var kritisk over for Kommissionens aktion i Bulgarien.
It was because of the exceptional circumstances that we and the Commission set up an ad hoc procedure, of which today's initiative is the logical conclusion.
Jeg synes, vi alle bør enes om, at programmet skal udstrækkes til også at omfatte Estland, Letland og Litauen.
As regards the representation of German Members in this Parliament, I must first say that we, like our French counterparts, have always been at a disadvantage.
Personlig nærer jeg alvorlige betænkeligheder ved at give hjælp til dette land i øjeblikket.
Eighty million German citizens are keeping the train moving, but they must feel as though they were merely travelling on the running-board since although they take on the largest financial burden they are disadvantaged in terms of their ability to have a say.
Lane (RDE). — (EN) Hr. formand, jeg har komplimenteret kommissæren for den måde, han har opridset programmet på. Jeg er klar over, at det har virket i to år, og at det var meget vanskeligt at få det i gang.
The proposal to increase the German quota by eighteen Members does something at least to take account of the changed situation.
Det problem, jeg har, og de spørgsmål, jeg gerne vil stille, drejer sig om, hvilken koordinering og harmonisering, der sker mellem de forskellige former for finansiering under PHARE-programmet.
The second question is this : was it appropriate, at this stage, to fix the number of German members who should join us in this House as currently constituted ?
Hvilken form for konsultation finder der f. eks. sted mellem de af Fællesskabets embedsmænd, der forvalter PHARE, og dem, der forvalter den interne strukturfinansiering af Fællesskabet, i forbindelse med den strukturelle finansiering?
This problem was discussed at length in the Socialist Group, where a very large majority emerged in favour of 18 members.
Samarbejder de?
There are two arguments in favour of this number.
Sker der harmonisering eller strukturel finansiering, der arbejder i to forskel lige retninger?
It has not subsequently given rise to any difficulties, either in Germany or in the European Parliament. So why not keep it ?
Bettini (V). — (IT) Hr. formand, jeg finder ligesom min gruppe, at PHARE-programmet bør være et vigtigt middel, når der skal reageres på bestemte problematiske forhold.
PRESIDENT. — Before we continue with the debate, I would inform you that I have received three motions for resolutions to wind up the debate on the oral questions with a request for an early vote. '
Et af disse er rækken af kernekraftværker, som i østlandene er forældede og
The vote on the request for an early vote will take place at the end of the debate.
Mit andet spørgsmål drejer sig om landbruget.
The more we increase the number above 18, the closer we get to a form of proportional representation.
Det lå uden for rammerne af PHARE-programmet, og vi burde
The decision that we are taking together on representation of the five Länder that have come in from the cold
Lane ringsaftaler, der hurtigt fører til udvidelse af Fælles skabet.
DESAMA is a very happy marriage of political logic and the demands of democratic principles.
Endelig bør der anstilles betragtninger over Europas fremtidige opbygning, der bør omfatte nye udsigter og visioner, som er i stand til at styrke energien og vække forhåbningerne.
Unlike the Council and the Commission, the European Parliament is a kind of first chamber of representatives and we are currently discussing expanding the rights of that chamber.
Desværre ser det ud til, at Rådet og Kommissionen som på så mange andre områder ikke er på højde med denne kolossale opgave.
In so doing we should try to avoid where possible moving from graduated proportionality to a kind of class-based electoral system.
Heldigvis hører vi, at importen er stoppet, men jeg spekulerer på, om det var til gavn for landene i Østeuropa, eller skaffede vi på kort sigt nogle kontanter til disse lande på bekostning af det langsigtede perspektiv?
Some time ago when I first saw the number 18 in an article written by my British colleague David Martin in a Socialist Group information leaflet, I suddenly became aware again of the strong British sense of fair play — whether in sport, battle or politics.
Formanden.- Jeg afbryder forhandlingen, der genoptages i eftermiddag efter forhandlingen om den tyske repræsentation.
If we want to continue building Europe we should deal fairly with one another.
(Mødet udsat kl. 13.05 og genoptaget kl. 15.00)
We do not need one man one vote representation, but we do need fairness as a matter of principle.
Jeg håber, 1992 ikke betyder enden på PHARE-programmet. Det må strække sig videre ud i fremtiden.
This involves taking a whole look at the system of parliamentary representation which so far has been balanced in various ways.
Men hvis vi faktisk forlænger det, så må det for enhver pris komplementere de systemer, der er i drift inden for Fællesskabet, det må gavne borgerne i de østeuropæiske lande og i selve Fællesskabet, så at vi side om side kan bevæge os i den rigtige retning, og så vi ikke ender med at skabe os en stor modstander, en stor konkurrent til os om fem eller ti år, som vi måske ikke vil være i stand til at konkurrere med.
Those of us who tabled this motion — and I am merely their leader — were seeking to try and reach — and I repeat — a wider consensus in this Parliament as to the general criteria which might help to solve this whole problem. We are convinced that any resolution approved by a small majority in this Parliament is a still-born resolution.
Ceyrac (DR). — (FR) I to år har vi befundet os i en ganske exceptionel situation, som kræver en exceptionel reaktion fra vor side.
It will not have enough backing from the Parliament to receive any attention by the Council.
Problemernes omfang og udvikling siden kommunismens fald foranlediger os til at spørge, om PHARE-programmet reelt imødekommer situationen, eller om det blot som så megen tidligere hjælp er en dråbe i havet.
Unfortunately, we are afraid that we will not pull it off and we are convinced that this socalled wider consensus can only come about if this Parliament is able to meet head on at least some of the general criteria defining these new balances of power in Europe, so that the status quo is not suddenly disrupted, and so that we can find a rational solution, as has always been the case in the past.
Formanden. — Den økumeniske patriark af Konstantinopel, hans højærværdighed Dimitrios, er afgået ved døden.
As a member of the Committee on Budgets I would also like to draw your attention to the following: 16 million working citizens also create an additional national product, and the national product creates tax revenue, which in turn gives the European Community financial potential.
Han var åndelig leder for 300 mio. ortodokse kristne i hele verden og var den 272. biskop af Konstantinopel. Den økumeniske patriark Dimitrios var en stor personlighed i den kristne verden, som altid handlede til fordel for universel fred.
The economy in the new German regions has not yet reached its full momentum but it is already booming in the old Federal Republic, and as reported by the budgetary control committee in Potsdam, even in 1991 the German share of EC financing is rising by more than the share of expenditure for the new Federal Länder.
Ved begravelsen, der finder sted i dag i Konstantinopel, repræsenteres Europa-Parlamentet af en delegation under ledelse af de to græske næstformand. mand.
A German financing share of 28.6% is expected in 1992, compared to the existing 26%, in the context of a budget volume that is rising from 60 to 66 billion.
Hvis programmet skal blive vellykket, må der knytte sig en række nøje definerede betingelser til det.
But we think this must be taken within the problem as a whole and the Parliament cannot whittle it down to one narrow subject, because then we are heading up a blind alley.
Formanden. — Listen over emner opført på dagsordenen med henblik på debatten torsdag om aktuelle og uopsættelige spørgsmål af væsentlig betydning er udarbejdet i overensstemmelse med forretningsordenens artikel 64, stk. 2. ')
We tabled this motion for that reason and call on all Groups in this House to seek the wide consensus needed for our indispensable authority to be maintained.
Sakellariou (S). — (DE) Hr. formand, en bemærk ning til den aktuelle og uopsættelige debat.
HOLZFUSS (LDR). — (DE) Madam President, on 21 November 1990, in the motion for a resolution in the Donnelly report on the incorporation of the former GDR in the European Community, we called in this plenary Chamber for the representation of Germans in the European Parliament to be settled by the next direction election in 1994.
På et tværpolitisk møde fastsloges det, at situationen i Jugoslavien er så foruroligende, at spørgsmålet ikke blot bør behandles som led i debatten om aktuelle og uopsættelige spørgsmål, men at det tillige er ønskværdigt at få en redegørelse herom fra Rådet.
For the interim period, we appointed 18 observers to our Parliament as representatives of the people of the former GDR. Until 3 October 1990 the number of Members followed a system of graduated proportionality fair to all countries, under which the number of EC citizens represented by a Member ranged from 240 000 in the case
Af denne grund anmoder jeg om, at beslutningsforslagene om Jugoslavien ikke behandles som led i debatten om aktuelle og uopsættelige spørgsmål, men at der afsættes ekstra tid til denne debat. Da
DONNELLY (S). — Madam President, we should not get distracted in this debate.
For det første skal det fremme de ændringer, der er nødvendige for oprettelse af en markedsøkonomi, der domineres af en stor privat sektor.
The debate is not about the reform of the EC institutions in preparation for a future enlargement of the Community — although such a review is probably needed.
Det bør især begunstige en frugtbar struktur af små og mellem store virksomheder.
It is not about creating a new common electoral system, even though such a system might be overdue.
Det bør suspenderes for de landes vedkommende, der ikke klart og tydeligt går bort fra kommunismen og slår ind på markedsøkonomiens vej, for ellers er pengene smidt ud af vinduet.
This debate is about the EC fulfilling its obligations to the same people, those people in the former GDR who only a year ago this House was congratulating for the steps that they had taken to bring democracy to their own states.
Det bør hurtigt udstrækkes til de baltiske lande, der har anmodet derom, og som har et presserende behov derfor.
That is what the debate is about this afternoon.
Det bør endvidere suppleres med associe
This debate is about including and involving our fellow EC citizens in the new Länder of Germany on equal terms in this House.
Sakellariou rådsformanden, så vidt jeg er orienteret, vil være til stede i spørgetiden og desuden er rede til at besvare spørgsmål fra Parlamentet, foreslår jeg, at dagsordenen ændres således, at der i stedet for spørgetiden opføres en redegørelse fra Rådet.
DONNELLY sitting members personally, this would mean a dilution of representation and perhaps also a form of refusal to recognize that 16 million extra citizens have joined the Community fold, and perhaps in addition to accept the political consequences of the changes that have occurred in Europe.
Ewing (ARC). — (EN) Hr. formand, det var præcist det samme, jeg ville sige.
On the other hand, if we say yes to an increase in German representation, and I personally am in favour of this, then we raise a series of questions which we in this Parliament are not in a position to answer on our own. Let me give some examples.
ningerne af hr. Donnelly fremskyndet en hurtig og effektiv vedtagelse af de lovgivningsmæssige og tekniske aspekter af enheden, for så vidt de berørte Fællesskabet, men vi har også taget initiativ til at sikre, at Fællesskabets 16,7 mio. nye borgere i det mindste kunne komme til orde i deres parlament.
Last year we recognized in this House the democratic deficit that was created as a result of the rapid unification of Germany and we made an interim arrangement at that time with the invitation of eighteen observers to observe the work we are involved in this House.
Vi må nu tage fat på det langsigtede.
It acted very honourably at that time to deal with that democratic deficit.
Det er min og min gruppes opfattelse, at vi skal opfordre Rådet til at ændre Traktaterne for at forøge den tyske repræsen tation i Parlamentet med 18 medlemmer.
It is now time for us to act honourably again and take the final step in fully integrating those citizens into the European Community and its institutions.
Formanden. — Jeg sætter hermed den af hr. Sakellariou på alle de politiske gruppers vegne fremsatte anmodning om ændring af dagsordenen under afstemning.
That final step involves giving fair and adequate representation to a united Germany in the European Parliament while protecting the representation of the smaller states.
Chanterie (PPE). — (NL) Hr. formand, jeg kan tilslutte mig forslaget, men jeg vil gerne spørge Dem, hvad der sker, hvis vi vedtager det.
The first question is this : by what kind of institutional balance is this increased representation to be accommodated?
Hvad mener De? Er det en redegørelse fra Rådet efterfulgt af en forhandling, eller hvad er det præcist?
Secondly, if we abandon the principle of parity between the four large countries, which was a founding principle established in the 1950s on the basis of a remarkable consensus, between France and Germany in particular, what principle do we put in its place ?
Formanden. — Principielt opretholdes strukturen for debatten om aktuelle og uopsættelige spørgsmål, men der opføres indledningsvis en redegørelse fra rådsformanden i lighed med, hvad der er gennemført ved en tidligere lejlighed. ')
It now falls to Parliament to state its mind, but at the same time it falls to the Heads of State and those at the highest level to establish the basis of a deep consensus on new principles that will be valid for the Europe of the year 2000, principles which will then, let us not forget, have to be ratified by the national parliaments.
Formanden. — Næste punkt på dagsordenen er forhandling under ét om følgende mundtlige forespørgsler:
Some people have even suggested that 99 German MEPs would have a distorting effect on the European Parliament.
B3-1447/91 af Chanterie for Det Europæiske Folkepartis Gruppe og Cot for Den Socialistiske Gruppe til Kommissionen om de 16 millioner nye tyske EF-borgeres demokratiske repræsentation i Europa-Parlamentet
It is very clear to me from all the meetings I had as this Parliament's spokesman last year on German unification that neither the government of Germany nor the opposition in Germany want any increased representation in the Commission, the Council or the Court and we should take their word for that.
