Jeg anser det af hensyn til samarbejdet for passende, at man behandler hinanden mere klart og måske tillige mere fair.
We have normally had some of the trite, anodyne nonsense produced by the Council of Ministers.
Parlamentet bestræber sig i hvert fald på og er også i denne sammenhæng interesseret i et godt samarbejde med Revisionsret og Kommission.
It has usually appeared to be the lowest common denominator of 12 incompetents.
Efter at Budgetkontroludvalget enstemmigt har ved taget denne betænkning om decharge, vil også jeg henstille til Dem, at der meddeles Kommissionen decharge for forvaltningen af regnskabet.
I have to say that this year it has been a substantial improvement on past performance and the Council has in fact had the courage of their own convictions and actually started to agreed with some of the criticsms of the Court of Auditors and pass comments upon the Commission.
Et par ord om emnet priskontrol og om udgifterne dertil samt i denne sammenhæng til, at Kommissionen gør brug af et eksternt firma: Først en bemærkning om det — i Revisionsrettens beretning tales der om, at de indtægter, bøderne giver, ikke dækker udgifterne til kontrol.
It has long been a view of mine that the European Community would be a far healthier and effective place if we occasionally had a bit of interinstitutional criticism where it is justified, rather than everybody sitting back and being nice to each other and pretending that gentlemen's agreements were worthwhile process.
Målet er snarere, at prisbestemmelserne skal overholdes. For så vidt vil jeg kritisere denne bemærkning fra Revisionsrettens side.
Mr President, there are therefore causes for concern which we in this Parliament have got to take seriously and it is for that reason that the Committee on Budgetary Control is going to continue to nag and to harass the committees of Parliament to make sure that they spend at least as much time in looking at the implementation of the budget as they do in formulating budget amendments.
I den forbindelse vil jeg gerne opfordre til, at der, dersom der på ny bliver behov for priskontrol — det kan jo være, at behovet for produktions- og priskontrol opstår igen en gang i fremtiden — ikke kun anvendes et firma, men måske flere firmaer, efter at arbejdet er udbudt.
Without the committees of Parliament constantly holding the Commission to account, constantly trying to determine what the spending profile of particular lines is and constantly monitoring what the implementation of the budget actually is, we find that we are leaving far too much executive power in the hands of the Commission and Parliament is doing that to the detriment of its budgetary powers.
Simons (S), ordforer. — (DE) Hr. formand, jeg tager ordet som ordfører for Den Fjerde, Femte og Sjette Europæiske Udviklingsfond 1988 og samtidig som ordfører for udtalelsen fra Udvalget om Udvikling og Samarbejde om dette emne.
Turning to the detail of the Iversen report, can I draw Parliament's attention to one particulat thing which I think is of substantial importance to Parliament? That is, how during 1988 Parliament appears, on the analysis of the Court of Auditors, to have spent a substantial part of its time wasting its time ?
Jeg vil koncentrere mig om nogle få væsentlige punkter.
It is quite clear if one looks at the tables in the Court of Auditors' report, in Tables 27 and 28, we have a record of which nobody in this House should be proud.
I sidste instans drejer det sig jo i forbindelse med den årlige dechargeprocedure også om en politisk vurdering af Kommissionens aktiviteter.
We see in the Court of Auditors' report lists which show, for example, if I quote from Table 27, the appropriations entered in the budget following a parliamentary amendment against budget headings from which the amount of appropriations remaining unutilized at the end of the year exceeded the amount of the amendment.
Lomé-konventionen, som nu 68 stater i Afrika, Vestindien og Stillehavet deltager i, er den vigtigste del af EF's udviklingssamarbejde. Derfor er den parlamentariske kontrol med Kommissionens for valtning af bevillingerne meget vigtig.
Yet Parliament during the budget procedures spends a great period of time arguing about its priorities, entering amounts in the budget, and then we find in a subsequent Court of Auditors' report that not only has our amendment not been fully utilized but that the underspending exceeds the total amount of Parliament's amendments.
Ved første øjekast kan jeg sige, at det ser glædeligt ud, for de betalinger, der er effekturet i 1988 ligger betydeligt over niveauet fra de forløbne år og beløber sig til
Let me give a couple of particular examples so that this House can fully appreciate the substantial waste of time in our budgetary efforts.
Dernæst en bemærkning om udløbet af EKSF-Traktaten.
If we look at No 580 — Financial support for transport infrastructure projects within the Community — we see
Dette punkt spiller ikke direkte nogen rolle i forbindelse med decharge, men det blev ved flere lejligheder drøftet i udvalget.
Mr President, I have a specific question to the Commission that I would like the Commissioner to answer when he speaks in the debate.
De ved alle, at EKSF-Traktaten udløber i år 2002, og at der til dato ikke eksisterer nogen officiel politik eller officielt er fremsat nogen udtalelse om, hvad der så skal ske.
If we examine the balance in the Iversen report, the financial balance for the year 1988, and then contrast it with the balance shown by the Commission in the second preliminary draft rectifying and amending budget, we find a major discrepancy between the two figures.
Men der skal i god tid træffes en afgørelse i denne sag, fordi det naturligvis vedrører f.eks. kreditorerne og også andre.
Clearly something has happened between the figures that were given to Mr Iversen by the Commission when he was drafting his report and the later figures which are now available in
Simons ring af de udgifter, som er en konsekvens af investeringerne, men endvidere simpelt hen en mere konkret, kvantificerbar og mere nøjagtig beskrivelse af det, der er gået forud, da jo først en sådan gør en kontrol mulig.
However, it seems that we have somewhere an overestimation of the balance of the order of ECU 860 million and I think the Commissionet today, before we vote the Iversen report, has got to give us those figures to explain them with a clarity and lucidity which at present they do not appear to have.
Betragter man det nøjere, ser man imidlertid en foruroligende stadig tilbagegang i de sekundære forpligtelser og betalinger til den programrelaterede bistand, dvs. til kernestykket i udviklings samarbejdet.
great deal of time and energy to amending the budget, and afterwards much of this effort turns out to have been wasted, because the Commission has not spent the amounts originally entered in the various budget lines.
Således blev der fra den Sjette Udviklingsfond kun udbetalt 5,6% af bevillingerne i det tredje gennemførelsesår. De tilsvarende tal fra de tidligere udviklingsfonde ligger klart højere, således at man ser, at udviklingen er blevet drastisk forværret.
This is extremely disturbing, and all the parliamentary committees must take this up and find ways of gaining an insight into the pattern of the Commission's spending in their particular area of policy and interest during the financial year.
Denne foruroligende lave udnyttelsesgrad kan ikke begrundes med Kommissionens henvisning til, at efter ikrafttrædelsen af Lomé III anvendes en stor del af den programrelaterede bistand til udvikling af landdistrikter, og at denne nu en gang kun kan gennemføres over længere perioder.
Mr President, I have stuck exactly to my nine mintes and I conclude with congratulating the other rapporteurs, particularly Mr Iversen, who has done a splendid job on behalf of the committee and, again, by reiterating my thanks to the Irish Presidency for taking their responsibilities for discharge sufficiently seriously to have made some substantive comments in the recommend ations that they put to the committee.
Endvidere vil jeg gerne gøre opmærksom på den store betydning, som netop denne del af decharge proceduren har: Det drejer sig nemlig også om Det Europæiske Fællesskabs nord-syd-samarbejde.
In the Iversen report the Committee on Budgetary Control has suggested ways of going about this.
Vi vil påse, at den europæiske enhed ikke sker på bekostning af de fattige på den sydlige halvkugle. Vi vil sørge for, at de bevillinger, som er nødvendige til dem, øges.
The aims in both areas are also undisputed.
Men navnlig vil vi påse, og det er jo emnet i dag, at Kommissionen som forvalter af vore politiske beslutninger hurtigt, fuldstændigt og omhyggeligt gennemfører det, som skal gøres.
The total underrepresentation of women in the middle ranks of the Commission's policy-making apparatus and their virtual absence from the upper ranks are a very clear reflection of the unfair and, therefore, untenable situation in society.
Derfor har jeg stillet et ændringsforslag til artikel 6 i beslutningen, hvori Kommissionen opfordres til at kontrollere disse programmers effektivitet i hen seende til modtagerstaternes autonome udvikling samt til at forelægge en rapport for Parlamentet.
ADAM (S), draftsman of the opinion of the Committee on Energy, Research and Technology. — Mr President, the Committee on Energy, Research and Technology noted in the 1988 discharge that it was a good year for utilization and continued the improvements that we have had in the previous years.
Udvalget har fra Rådet modtaget anbefaling af, at der meddeles decharge til disse to organer.
We produce so much rubbish that, if we do not watch out, we will eventually die in our own rubbish and leave behind a world unfit for our children to live in.
I forbindelse med vort arbejde har vi modtaget nogle udmærkede beretninger fra Revisionsretten, som udvalget takker den for.
In short, both equal treatment of men and women and environment policy are priorities for Parliament, as we have shown on many occasions.
Revisionsretten har i sin beretning anbefalet, at de to institutioner prøver et analytisk regnskabssystem opdelt på forskningsmål.
However, the discharge is rather more than a question of utilization of the resources or the commitment of the resources.
Anden del af min redegørelse drejer sig om finansförvaltningen og regnskabsføringen.
On the research side Mr Iversen has noted, in paragraphs 61 and 62 of his report, the problem with carry-forwards.
Her har Revisionsretten gentagne gange konstateret en hel række mangler, som jeg ikke vil redegøre for i detaljer.
We do have a difficulty aligning the multiannual research programme with the annual budgetary procedure and I hope that the Commissioner, since he is here this morning, will give some indication that the Commission will take Article 11 of the Interinstitutional Agreement more seriously in future.
Kommissionen ved det og det gør medlemmerne af Budgetkontroludvalget også.
But our pattern of spending flatly contradicts these priorities.
Vi skal i de kommende uger og måneder føre yderligere samtaler med Kom missionen derom.
We do not even spend one thousandth of the Community's budget on the environment policy, and equal opportunities are only mentioned in footnotes.
Det må under alle omstændigheder fastholdes, at Kommissionen skal forbedre sine procedurer i denne sammenhæng.
In the second action programme on equal tteatment, for example, the Council did not even make provision for the possibility of providing additional resources for the implementation of the programme.
Det gælder ganske særligt med henblik på det øgede finansielle volumen f.eks. af Lomé IV, som jo nu snart skal træde i kraft.
Mr Iversen's report tries to fish up the teal policy in both areas, not just the glossy folders and the fine wotds.
Jeg gentager de krav, som Europa-Parlamentet alle rede tidligere har stillet: Indhold og form af de dokumenter, der er nødvendige med henblik på decharge, skal forbedres.
In both areas the report calls on the Coutt of Auditors to draw up a special report on the Community's spending in the sectors concerned and to devote a chapter to the environment and the equal treatment of men and women in its report each year.
1 punkt 4 i beslutningen om Berlin er der en kommentar angående en henstilling fra Revisionsret ten om, at man indhenter yderligere rådgivning om indkøb af en større computer.
On the Joint Research Centre, which Mr Iversen has mentioned in paragraph 65, 1988 was probably its worst year in recent years.
Dette er sket, en ekstern konsulent har udarbejdet en rapport, og denne støtter påstanden om, at der er behov for en større computer.
We had late approval of the budget and we did not get the new programme for the JRC until vety nearly the end of the year.
Hvad angår Berlin, skuffer det mig, at man ikke der er blevet opfordret til at spille en større rolle i forbindelse med erhvervsuddannelsesfonden for Østeuropa.
But I do assure the House that we have a working party of our committee looking very closely at the activities of the Joint Research Centre and we work closely with the Committee on Budgetary Control on this matter.
Det forekommer mig, at et eksisterende organ lettere kunne træde til og hjælpe Østeuropa hurtigere end et nyt organ, som må gennemløbe hele
May I thank the rapporteur for taking so fully into account the opinion of the Committee on Energy, Research and Technology in drawing up his report, and I hope that he will accept the further explanations that I have given this morning.
Både Budgetkontroludvalget og Udvalget om Udvikling og Samarbejde har gentagne gange sagt, at programmernes kvalitet skal forbedres yderligere.
GOEDMAKERS (S). — (NL) Mr President, the Iversen report gives a very clear account of a problem to which the Court of Auditors has referred.
Endnu en gang blot to stikord: Øget koordinering, fornuftig fremme af investeringerne. I denne forbin delse hilser jeg ændringsforslaget af hr. Cochet vel komment, det peger i den rigtige retning: En vurde
MARCK (PPE). — (NL) Mr President, the EPP Group will be voting for the Iversen report, which is in line with what our predecessors Aigner and Schön always mapped out as the policy of the Committee on
Kellett-Bowman processen med at lære, hvordan man skal udføre arbejdet.
MARCK direction, and the initial results have been favourable.
Men jeg forstår, at det godt kan tænkes, at hovedkvarteret for erhvervsuddannelsesfonden for Østeuropa kommer til at ligge i CEDEFOP-bygnin-gen i Berlin.
In the interests of the European public and the European image, this must continue.
Parlamentet behøver at gå yderligere i detaljer med det, bortset fra at notere, at her anbefaler vi decharge for årene for 1986, 1987 og 1988, medens der stadig er et beløb fra regnskabet fra 1982, som der ikke er meddelt decharge for.
KELLETT-BOWMAN (ED). — Mr President, I rise again briefly to indicate the European Democratic Group's support for all five reports which we are dealing with in this joint debate and which concern discharges for the year 1988.
Jeg synes, det er noget, som Præsidiet og Parlamentets administration må gøre noget alvorligt for at få bragt i orden så hurtigt som muligt.
I particularly want to congratulate Mr Iversen on the way he has gone about the preparation of this report.
Jeg går nu over til de andre spørgsmål, som vi beskæftiger os med i dag, og vil gerne komplimentere hr. Iversen, fru Hoff, fru Simons og hr. Kellett-Bowman for deres udmærkede betænkninger.
His competence can be indicated in one simple fact which is before the House, namely that in a 91-paragraph report there are just seven amendments.
Det drejer sig om en afgørelse om at sende trykkeopgaver, der normalt udføres i huset, ud i byen.
As the rapporteur on contacts with the national parliaments, I am increasingly struck by the fact that our colleagues in the national parliaments are not aware of the impact of European legislation or of the way in which their own government and administration monitor its enforce ment.
En af de metoder, hvorved disse to organer har kunnet udnytte deres ressourcer bedst muligt — for vi har været ret fedtede med hensyn til bemanding af dem — består i at sikre sig, at de alle bruger det moderne udstyr, der forefindes, samt — hvad der tidligere er prøvet i Dublin — at sende oversættelse ud i byen, hvilket faktisk har hjulpet på effektiviteten og reduceret omkostningerne.
We ate trying to convince them that the European Parliament is able to tap the Commission on the knuckles, but this is not the case with the Member States, and they in fact bear most of the responsibility for monitoring. When reports of fraud appear, they then point accusingly at Europe instead of looking for the guilty parties in their own country.
Hr. formand, begge disse organer udfører udmærket arbejde på Fællesskabets vegne.
As well as cattying out a money audit, Parliament has the responsibility of doing a political audit.
Jeg ville ønske, at vi kunne foretage lige så grundige undersøgelser, når det gælder de større udgiftsposter, i særdeleshed, mener jeg, landbruget.
It indicates to some extent that the Commission almost ignores Parliament's specific wishes in these directions and we are looking for improvement in later years.
Dette eneste, jeg beklager, i forbindelse med disse to organer, hr. formand, er, at de relevante udvalg under Parlamentet ikke udnytter dem fuldt ud.
I am sorry that the administration has decided for practical reasons not to include the sub-rapporteur's reports in with the Iversen report.
Jeg vil gerne koncentrere nogle enkelte af mine bemærkninger om Iversenbetænkningen om decharge til Kommissionen.
In closing can I indicate that we also support Mrs Hoff, Mrs Simons and Mr Tomlinson in their reports and thank them for the work they have done.
Jeg vil gerne begynde med at ændre mønsteret for min kritik fra de sidste år, hvor jeg er begyndt med væsentlig kritik af Ministerrådet for den ringe kvalitet af den henstilling, som det forelægger for Budgetkontroludvalget i forbindelse med anbefaling af denne decharge.
Annoying situations sometimes arise, as when certain governments refuse to allow Commission officials to carry out their checks.
Vi har som regel fået noget intetsigende, beroligende sludder fra Ministerrådet.
In the case of own resources, serious shortcomings are detected, and here the Commission has often been far too lax in its attitude.
Det har normalt været laveste fællesnævner for 12 inkompetente.
All the details should therefore be taken down in the future, so that those who are holding back payments and those who make incorrect statements can be put in the European pillory for all to see.
Jeg må sige, at i år er der sket en væsentlig forbedring i forhold til tidligere, og Rådet har virkelig vist mod til at kæmpe for sin overbevisning og er faktisk begyndt at udtrykke enighed med en hel del af kritikken fra Revisionsretten og at fremsætte bemærkninger om Kommissionen.
It must also be possible to tighten up the monitoring of expenditure, but the Commission should also keep its promise to simplify regulations and procedures, which are sometimes far too complicated, and to make them more transparent.
Det har længe været min opfattelse, at Fællesskabet ville være langt sundere og mere effektivt, hvis vi af og til fik lidt interinstitutionel kritik, når det er berettiget, snarere end som nu, hvor alle er lammefromme og rare ved hinanden og foregiver, at man kan nøjes med gentleman-aftaler.
Particularly where the common agricultural policy is concerned, it is sometimes rather difficult to pick your way through the successive amendments to the legislation. It is evidently only the cheats who know how to find the loopholes that sometimes enable them to make very large profits.
Jeg formoder, at forbedringen godt kan skyldes det forhold, at den nuværende irske formand, hvad hun så ellers er, bestemt ikke er nogen gentleman.
COCHET (V). — (FR) I too must congratulate our five rapporteurs whose task has not always been an easy one in view of the arid nature of the subject-matter.
Tomlinson (S), ordfører. — (EN) Hr. formand, det er mig en glæde at forelægge min betænkning og anbefale den beretning, der giver decharge for gen nemførelsen af Europa-Parlamentets budget for regnskabsårene 1986, 1987 og 1988.
I wish to be very brief, speaking perhaps rather less as a member of the Committee on Budgetary Control than as a political critic of the type of relations the Community maintains with third world countries, a matter well described by Mrs Simons.
Selve betænkningen er meget klar og ligefrem og er i form og ordlyd i overensstemmelse med Wettigbetænkningerne fra 1983, 1984 og 1985.
To conclude, I should just like to revert to an urgent question I raised in the Committee on Budgetary Control concerning the black matket in the evasion of milk quotas that has been discovered in the Netherlands.
Jeg tror ikke, jeg her i
This is a major step in the right
Jeg går nu over til detaljerne i Iversen-betænkningen.
In fact, my criticism relates entirely to the two proposed amendments to Mrs Simons' report.
Må jeg henlede Parlamentets opmærksomhed på én ting, som jeg mener er af væsentlig betydning for Parlamentet?
How can we measure the effectiveness of Community financial aid to third countries?
Det er, at Parlamentet ifølge Revisionsrettens analyse i 1989 synes at have brugt en væsentlig del af sin tid på at spilde tiden?
The first answer here is that such aid should make it possible to increase what may be termed the development of autonomy for those countries and not further develop or increase their dependence, which is what we have witnessed over the past 20 years.
Hvis man ser på tabel 2.7 og 2.8 i Revisionsrettens beretning, er det helt klart, at tabellerne viser noget, som ingen her i Parlamentet kan være stolte af.
You will know, Mr President, that every decade, the European Parliament has tried, in a great humanitarian gesture, to proclaim that decade the decade for development.
Tomlinson beføjelser til Kommissionen, og det gør Parlamentet til skade for sine budgetmæssige beføjelser.
Community, but the type of aid we are according may also be a factor.
stiger de samlede ændringsbeløb fra Parlamentet. Lad mig give et par konkrete eksempler, så at Parlamentet fuldt ud kan forstå det omfattende tidsspilde i forbindelse med vort budgetarbejde.
The second answet to the question of the effectiveness of the aid is that the investment must result in what is called sustainable development — the French 'soutenable' may be a neologism here deriving, as it does, from the English — but sustainable development in the terms of the Brundtland report, that is to say lasting and viable development that is ecologically sound and apt to the social context.
Hvis vi ser på artikel 580 — finansiel støtte til transportinfrastrukturprojekter inden for Fællesskabet — ser vi, at Kommissionen har foreslået 55 mio ecu.
SCHODRUCH (DR). — (DE) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, you have a total of five reports before you. They document the hard work done by the Committee on Budgetary Control.
Parlamentet har lagt 5 mio ecu til, så at den endeligt vedtagne bevilling kom op på 60 mio ecu.
As a new Member, may I say that particular care has been taken in the consideration of the difficult problem that must now take centre stage in our parliamentary activities.
Hr. formand, jeg har et særligt spørgsmål til Kom missionen, som jeg gerne vil bede kommissæren svare på, når han tager ordet under denne forhandling.
I wish to end by thanking Mrs Goedmakers who referred extensively in her speech to the problem of the environment and the problem of equality of men and women within the institutions.
Hr. formand, jeg har holdt mig nøjagtig til mine 9 minutter, og slutter med at komplimentere de andre ordførere, særlig hr. Iversen, der har gjort et fremragende stykke arbejde for udvalget, og med at gentage min tak til det irske formandskab, fordi det har taget sit ansvar for decharge tilstrækkelig alvor ligt til at have fremsat nogle betydningsfulde bemærkninger i de anbefalinger, som det har forelagt for udvalget.
The reports reveal that, although the authority has in principle tried to ensure that these resources are used properly, shortcomings have been detected, and they have resulted in Mr Iversen showing the yellow card.
