Under besøg i de forskellige hovedstæder i Fællesskabet har jeg konstateret, at Rådet efterhånden erkender, at den retlige position i forbindelse med kontrol len med Det Europæiske Fællesskab må forstærkes.
During my visits to the various Community capitals I noted that the Council is slowly coming to realize that the legal status of auditing the European Community's financial activities must be strengthened.
Jeg forventer, at Kommissionen allerede i den kom mende tid vil træde ind i en tæt dialog med os og også med Rådet om dette problem.
I expect the Commission to enter into an in-depth dialogue on this problem with us and with the Council in the near future.
Jeg beder om, at man vedtager vort beslutningsforslag, der blev vedtaget enstemmigt af udvalget.
I ask the House to adopt our motion for a resolution, which was unanimously approved by the committee.
A 2-152/87) af Chanterie for Udvalget for Andragender om udvalgets behandling af andragender 8første halvår af 1987).
A 2-152/87) by Mr Chanterie, on behalf of the Committee on Petitions, on the committee's deliberations on petitions (first six months of 1987).
Chanterie (PPE), ordfører. — (NL) Hr. formand, ære de kollegaer, den betænkning, som jeg fremlægger på vegne af Udvalget for Andragender, vedrører dels de andragender, der var under behandling, da dette ud valg tiltrådte den 4. og 5. februar i år, og dels de andragender, som siden da er blevet henvist til ud valget, og som er blevet behandlet til og med mødet den 22/23 juni 1987.
CHANTERIE (PPE), rapporteur. — (NL) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the report I am presenting on behalf of the Committee on Petitions concerns both the petitions still pending when the committee met on 4 and 5 February of this year and the petitions referred to the committee from that time until the meeting of 22/23 June 1987.
I denne rapporteringsperiode blev der antaget 136 andragender til behandling og 31 blev afvist, mens behandlingen af 105 andragender blev afsluttet. Den 1.
During this period 136 new petitions were declared admissible and 31 inadmissible, and the consideration of 105 petitions was concluded.
Juli 1987 havde udvalget 160 andragender til behandling, i dag er det ca. 200.
On 1 July 1987 the committee was considering 160 petitions. The figure has risen to about 200 today.
Fru Dury har stillet to ændringsforslag.
In its consideration of petitions the committee has requested the Commission's assistance and asked other
Der tages op heri, har vi behandlet, og jeg har her også en skriftlig erklæring fra kandidaten, hr. Hebette, om, at hvis blot ideen om en berøring med hans kones ansættelse hos Fællesskabet skulle optræde, vil hans kone straks lade sig forflytte.
There is, for example, a petition on the European School in Luxembourg, which has a thousand signatures.
Chanterie valg.
Chanterie received this year confirms this statement.
Jeg vil ved denne lejlighed gerne udtrykke min tak for den udmærkede samarbejdsånd, som er kom met til udtryk herunder.
This is giv­ing the people's Europe very definite substance.
forbindelse med anlægget af Kanaltunnelen med ca. to hundrede underskrifter.
ferent treatment of British pensioners and pensioners in other Member States has been signed by 660.
Hr. formand, Udvalget for Andragender har konstateret, at et antal problemområder dukker op igen og igen med jævne mellemrum i andragenderne og der for har behov for særlig opmærksomhed.
Mr President, the Committee on Petitions has found that a number of problem areas regularly recur in peti­tions and so require special attention.
For det første er der problemet i forbindelse med etableringsretten i den valgte medlemsstat for andre kategorier end arbejdstagere, f. eks. for pensionister og studerende.
Firstly, there is the problem connected with the right of residence in another Member State for categories other than employees — retired persons and students, for exam­ple.
Dette problem behandles inden for rammerne af Rådet om det indre marked, men kommer desværre ikke længere der.
This problem is being considered by the Internal Market Council, but sadly it has not made any pro­gress.
Det andet problem vedrører læreres mobilitet, der vanskeliggøres, fordi lærere i nogle medlemsstater an ses for at være tjenestemænd.
DURY (S). — (FR) Mr President, I welcome this first report on the deliberations of the Committee on Peti­tions.
I den forbindelse kan jeg meddele Parlamentet, at sager om krænkelse af Traktaten er blevet anlagt mod Frankrig og Italien.
It is a procedure that can be useful, it is a direct, democratic procedure.
Den første betænkning, den fra hr. Estgen, handlede om situationen for studerende, der studerer i en anden medlemsstat, og den blev vedtaget den 18. september i år af Parlamentet. Den anden betænkning vedrører problemerne i forbindelse med bedrageri med fast ejendom.
The second problem concerns the mobility of teachers, which is hampered by the fact that in some Member States teachers are regarded as civil servants.
Denne McMillan-Scott- betænkning er stadig til behandling i udvalget. Med hensyn til fire andre andragender blev et medlem af udvalget valgt til undersøger.
In this context, I am able to inform Parliament that proceed­ings have been brought against France and Italy for infringement of the Treaty.
Han har til opgave at undersøge sagsakterne i forbindelse med andragendet, da begivenheden enten er ualmindelig indviklet eller snarere uklar. Undersøgeren afgiver derefter en hen stilling til udvalget om, hvilke forholdsregler, der skal tages.
The second point I should like to stress is that, thanks to the report by MrAmadei and the efforts made to rationalize our work, we were able in six months to deal with many more petitions than in two years, as Mr Chanterie has reported, and that represents real progress because when citizens send petitions to Par­liament as a last resort, it is because they have not been able to do anything else and are anxious to have their problems settled speedily.
Det tredje problemområde er vedrørende indregistrering af motorkøretøjer i tilfælde af mange besøg.
The third problem area is the registration of motor vehicles where their owners make frequent visits to another Member State.
Der er tilfælde med meget høje bøder og endog med fængselsstraf.
In some cases, very heavy fines and even prison sentences have been imposed.
Også her er der lagt sag an på grund af krænkelse af Traktaten, nemlig mod Danmark.
Here again, proceedings have been brought for infringe­ment of the Treaty, specifically against Denmark.
Et fjerde problemområde vedrører »den retmæssige« bortførelse af børn.
A fourth problem area is the 'lawful' abduction of chil­dren.
I betragtning af at antallet af klager om bortførelse af børn stiger, har formanden for Parlamentet den 20. marts i år besluttet at udnævne en mægler, nemlig fru Vayssade.
As the number of complaints about child abduc­tion is rising, the President of Parliament decided on 20 March of this year to appoint Mrs Vayssade as médiateur.
Under det sidste udvalgsmøde blev der afgivet en første betænkning om behandlingen af disse andragender.
At the committee's last meeting an initial report was presented on the treatment of these peti­tions.
Det første element : 51 andragender kommer fra virksomheder eller foreninger. 228 andragender kommer fra enkeltpersoner.
For my own part, I have been very favourably impressed with the cooperation received from the Commission, particularly in the area of social security.
Når vi opdeler disse andragender efter nationalitet, kan vi konstatere, at der indkommer tre gange så mange andragender fra Forbundsrepublikken som fra nogen anden medlemsstat.
I am not entirely satisfied with the cooperation we have had from it in other areas, for instance the envi­ronment or development cooperation, but on matters bearing very directly on individual rights I find that there has been extremely positive cooperation on which we can build.
Derefter følger så Italien, Frankrig, Det forenede Kongerige, Grækenland og Belgien.
On the other hand, I am very disappointed at the attitude shown by Member States to dossiers that we send them.
Det er tydeligt, at de vest tyske borgere kender petitionsretten bedre, da den er fastlagt i den tyske grundlov og udøves gennem den tyske Forbundsdags udvalg for andragender.
Let me quote just one example: a petition dating from 1985 — reference 59(85) — concerning difficulties experienced by a black person at customs on the Belgian/Dutch border.
Dette udvalg har i øvrigt været en model for Europa-Parlamentets Udvalg for Andragender.
When a petition was sent to us, we asked the Belgian State to supply us with information on the incident that occurred at the border.
Et par afsluttende betragtninger.
A few concluding comments.
Den europæiske bor gers ret til at indsende andragender til Europa-Parlamentet skal styrkes yderligere, det har vi besluttet.
We have decided that the right of the European citizen to submit petitions to the European Parliament must be further streng­thened.
Der kom i den forbindelse flere væsenlige ting frem.
A number of important things have been done in this connection.
For det første blev det besluttet at distribuere en tydelig og enkel oplysende folder.
Firstly, it has been decided that a clear and simple information folder should be distri­buted.
For det andet har vi forbedret udvalgets interne arbejdsmetoder seriøst, og for det tredje, og hermed henvender jeg mig især til kommissæren, forberedes en fællesskabslovgivning i nært samarbejde mellem Kommissionen og Parlamentet.
Secondly, we have greatly improved the com­mittee's internal working methods, and thirdly, and I am now addressing the Commissioner in particular, the Commission and Parliament are cooperating closely in the preparation of Community legislation.
Jeg håber, at vi lidt senere hører mere herom fra kommissæren.
I hope we shall be hearing rather more about this from the Commissioner shortly.
En analyse af emnerne fører til omkring tyve forskel lige rubrikker med sociale sikringsproblemer, miljø og sundhed, juridiske spørgsmål, fri bevægelighed og det indre marked samt opholdsret, udenlandske an liggender, hjælp til lande i den tredje verden og men neskerettigheder, beskyttelse af dyr og beskæftigelse som de vigtigste emneområder.
It is therefore extremely important to remain active in all these areas and also for the committee secretariat's Α, Β and C posts to be filled with the best possible people, with account taken of all the Community lan­guages.
Det er således en presserende sag, hele tiden at skulle være aktiv på alle disse områder og samtidig hurtigst muligt at gøre en optimal bemanding af udvalgssekretariatet mulig, for så vidt angår A, B- og C-stillin-ger under hensyntagen til alle Fællesskabets sprog.
As to results achieved, it is sometimes difficult to get Member States to do what we ask, which is generally a matter of upholding petitioners' rights.
Således er der f. eks et andragende om den europæiske skole i Luxemburg med tusind underskrifter.
The same applies to requests from the Committee on Petitions.
Endelig vil jeg gerne påpege en meget interessant redegørelse af hr. Pescatore, tidligere dommer ved EF-domstolen.
Finally, I would refer to a very interesting statement made by Mr Pescatore, a former judge at the Court of Justice.
På et kollokvinin i Bruxelles i slutningen af september gjorde han opmærksom på, hvilket
At a colloquy held in Brussels at the end of September he referred to the importance of the Euro­pean citizen's right of petition in the defence of his rights.
Det Europæiske Fællesskabs borgere, således som det til stadighed fremgår af Eurobarometerets undersøgelser, ser ordet » Europa-træthed « for ikke at sige » Europa-surhed« i øjeblikket ud til at gå raden rundt.
citizens of the European Community, as Eurobarometer surveys constantly show, the term 'Europe fatigue', or even 'lack of enthusiasm about Europe', appears to be doing the rounds at the moment.
Det har selvfølgelig mangfoldige grunde; den vigtigste af disse er tit drøftet her.
There are many reasons for this, of course. The most important has been discussed here on many occasions.
Emnet » Europæisk Fælles skab« forekommer kun sjældent i de regionale avisers spalter og vil i givet fald sædvanligvis være negativt farvet.
The European Community seldom hits the headlines in the regional newspapers, and when it does, it usually comes in for some criticism.
Her er der meget at gøre, og også det er tit diskuteret i Parlamentet: Bedre arbejdsvilkår for journalisterne, flere praksismuligheder og præmier til journalister, stramning og koncentration af parlamentsarbejdet om væsentlige spørgsmål og sidst, men ikke mindst bestræbelser på at få et komplet europæisk tv-program.
A great deal needs to be done in this respect, and that too has often been discussed in this House: better working conditions for journalists, more practical training and prizes for journalists, tightening up of parliamentary work and its concentration on essential questions and, not least, a commitment to a fully-fledged European television channel.
Dury (S). — (FR) Hr. formand, jeg er glad for denne første betænkning om Udvalget for Andragenders be handling af andragender. Selv om vi ikke er mange i salen — nogle grupper er end ikke repræsenteret — har det i hvert fald den fortjeneste at underrette med lemmerne om arbejdet i Udvalget for Andragender og om deres muligheder for at fortælle de europæiske borgere om andragenderne.
If the largest Latvian community in the Western world to have gathered in one city can see in their European representative their greatest hope and refuge and place in him their greatest confidence in their struggle for elementary human rights, I feel the Commission should take a less restrictive attitude.
Der er en anden grund til borgernes svigtende Europa-interesse, der er mindst lige så vigtig.
A second factor is at least as important for the Europe fatigue felt by our citizens.
Mange bor gere kan dårligt forstå, hvad fællesskabsforvaltningen i det fjerntliggende Bruxelles kan have at gøre med deres dagligliv.
Many of them find it hard to understand what the administration of the Community in far-off Brussels has to do with their personal everyday lives.
Her har Europa-Parlamentets Udvalg for Andragender en vigtig opgave.
It is here that the European Parliament's Committee on Petitions has an important task to perform.
Som hr. Chanterie allerede sagde, viser et hastigt blik på de i de sidste måneder indløbne andragender borgernes hovedproblemer: Pensioner, sociale ydelser, hospitalsbehandling, miljø og sundhed, anmodninger om juridisk bistand, fri bevægelighed og Det Indre Marked. ked.
As Mr Chanterie has already said, a cursory glance at the petitions received in the last few months reveals the main problems faced by the public: pensions, social security benefits, hospital care, the environment and health, requests for legal advice, free movement and the internal market.
Dersom det lykkes ved mere offentlighedsarbejde fra Udvalgets side, ved pressekonferencer og publikationer, ved kontakter med ombudsinstitutionerne, de nationale udvalg for andragender og de store organisationer at gøre det klart for alle borgere, at de i Europa-Parlamentets Udvalg for Andragender har en ad vokat og fortaler, hvortil de kan henvende sig som enkeltpersoner, grupper, sammenslutninger eller et niske mindretal, og som ikke blot lytter til dem, men også tager dem alvorligt — hvis det lykkes —, så kan det i høj grad bidrage til, at Fællesskabet ikke længere blot er et abstrakt begreb for borgerne, men at disse virkelig føler sig som en del af det.
If the number of petitions on the environment and animal protection, important as they are, goes on rising at the present rate, there will come a day when it is impossible to devote the time of them that they deserve and above all deal with them as responsibly and objectively as they should be. The important work being done by our committee can succeed only if the public present their concerns circumspectly, responsibly and objectively and if 'solidarity' with the weak, with people in need, is not just something Members say but a guide for their daily actions.
Jeg ønsker dog at give udtryk for stor utilfredshed med medlemsstaternes holdning til de sager, vi sender dem.
OPPENHEIM (ED). — (DA) Mr President, my group congratulates the rapporteur on his report, which we shall, of course, support.
Jeg vil blot nævnte et enkelt eksempel: Det drejer sig om et andragende fra 1985, nr. 59 (85), om en farvet persons vanskeligheder ved den belgisk-luxembourgske grænse.
We were really delighted to see the particularly positive thrust of the report and we hope that the committee will continue to carry out its work in the vibrant spirit by which this entire document is animated.
Selv om vi har modtaget et andragende, har vi anmodet den belgiske stat om at give os nærmere oplysninger om denne tildragelse ved grænsen.
There is no need for me here to go into the different matters at issue, which have already been discussed at some length.
For at Udvalget kan varetage disse vigtige opgaver, er der brug for nogle ting, som allerede er omtalt her: To møder om måneden og en strøm af andragender — det nærmer sig medlemmernes fysiske og psykiske ydelses grænse, hvis de ikke blot skal tage deres arbejde i dette udvalg alvorligt, men også i deres to fagudvalg.
They have already been mentioned here. Two meetings a month and a flood of petitions are taking the members to their physical and mental limits, since they want to take their work not only in this committee but in their other two committees seriously.
Derfor bør dette arbejde lettes i videst muligt omfang.
The work-load must therefore be eased as far as possible.
Retten til at indgive andragender, der er praktiseret igennem tredive år og anerkendt af Fælles skabet og medlemsstaterne, bør nu have et egentligt retsgrundlag, som omtalt af hr. Chanterie, og Udvalget bør også straks nedsætte en arbejdsgruppe, der sammen med Kommissionen kan udarbejde dette retsinstruments tekstog form.
It really is time for the right of petition, which has been exercised and recognized by the Community and Member States for 30 years, to be given the legal basis already described by Mr Chanterie, and the committee working group that is to decide on the text and form of this legal instrument with the Commission must be set up with out delay.
(Bifald)
This work should
Peus (PPE). — (DE) Hr. formand, mine damer og herrer, til trods for en relativt positiv indstilling hos
I would begin by pointing out that this is the first time that there has been a direct discussion of the Committee on Petitions in a debate in this House.
En stor hjælp er de gode resuméer af nye andragender, der udarbejdes af sekretariatet, og koordinatorernes foreløbige afgørelse om andragendernes antagelighed.
Up to now it sufficed to give an account of the committee's activities in an annex to the Minutes.
Antallet af klagesager er steget kraftigt, og det forløb, som en række af sagerne har fået, viser også klart berettigelsen af udvalget.
The number of petitions has increased sharply, and this alone clearly justifies the existence of the committee.
Den Europæiske For brugerorganisation har for nylig opfordret til, at man dennede en europæisk ombudsmandsinstitution.
The European Consumers Organization recently called for the setting-up of a European institution to act as an ombudsman.
Jeg ved i grunden ikke, om der er sket noget reelt med dette ønske, men det viser også, at forbrugerinteresser har fået øje på fordelen ved at have en ombudsmandslignende institution.
I do not know if anything tangible has been done to meet their wishes on this, but it does show that the consumers have convinced themselves of the value of such an institution.
Når den vestlige verdens største lettiske koloni, der har fundet sammen i en by, i Europa-Parlamentets medlem ser sit store håb i kampen for de grundlæggende menneskerettigheder, så vil jeg gerne på grund lag heraf anmode Kommissionen om at anlægge en lidt mindre restriktiv holdning.
In Denmark a film clip on the European Parliament's Committee on Petitions is being made at the present time for Danish television.
Til sidst en bøn til indgiverne af kollektive andragender: Det er forståeligt, at man ved antallet af under skrifter gerne vil øge sagens betydning.
It will be a short publicity film to explain not only the European Parliament but also our committee.
Men når det tidligere omtalte andragende om eksport af mynder til Spanien får 4 000 underskrifter, andragendet om syriske samvittighedsfanger kun 2 000 og kampagnen for Den Europæiske Union 500, så må det være til ladt at spørge, om man nu også har den rette opfattelse af værdiernes rangfølge.
I think that this is a particularly praiseworthy initiative which could be carried even further, always granted that certain clearly defined criteria would have to be adhered to.
Jeg finder, at det er en meget positiv ting, og den slags markedsføring bør vi styrke endnu mere. Ordføreren var selv inde på de muligheder, som er blevet givet udvalget med hensyn til markedsføring.
I refer to the circumstance that, whereas in our Parliament — and in this particular case I am addressing the President, not directly the Committee on Petitions — great use is made of translations, with no expense spared, in very many cases petitions are instead summarized in a few lines; and a summary, as we know, can never render the sense of what a petition is.
Jeg er overbevist om, at der er behov herfor, for de barrierer, som grænserne danner, og som hele det store maskineri udgør for den enkelte borger, bevirker ofte, at en forurettet ikke kommer frem med de problemer, han har, selv om de ville kunne behandles i vores udvalg.
Obviously, these answers were not proper answers, they were approximate, bureaucratic answers, because the text of the petition was presented in this way, and they have therefore impressed on the minds of these citizens the idea that the European Par liament is something very aloof from them; that it is something, above all, that does not concern them.
Når miljø- og dyrebeskyttelsesandragender, uanset hvor vigtige de måtte være, i den grad tager til, så vil der komme et tidspunkt, hvor man ikke længere kan behandle dem med den fornødne ansvarsbevidsthed og på passende måde. Vort Udvalgs vigtige arbejde kan kun lykkes, hvis borgerne fremfører deres anliggender med omtanke, ansvarsbevidsthed og på pas sende måde, og hvis ordet » solidaritet « med de svage, med mennesker i nød, ikke bliver et tomt ord for medlemmerne, men en rettesnor for deres daglige gerning.
I therefore call on the President to ask the Bureau, on our behalf, to be a bit more generous in translating these petitions, so that there are no misunderstandings such as those that have sometimes occurred and of which I have knowledge, without counting the other cases — who knows how many there have been! — about which we have heard nothing.
Det er ikke altid bare almindelige forståelsesbarrierer, men virkelig store problemer, der gør, at borgerne føler, at de ikke har direkte adgang til deres eget fællesskab.
It is obvious that we cannot deal with all the petitions submitted, nor should we feel obliged to do so.
Her har vi en fantastisk chance for at gøre Europa-Parlamentet berømt i Europa.
There will be many times when petitioners will have to be told that their problems do not fall within our competence.
Fællesskabet bliver virkelig noget håndgribeligt, når borgerne ved at de kan få deres sag behandlet her, uden at det er nødvendigt med et sagsanlæg, en proces eller et andet stort og bureaukratisk apparat.
In any case we must not accept petitions indiscriminately to the point where we become social workers or storefront lawyers or something like that. People who address themselves to us generally feel themselves being ground down by the system.
Der er direkte adgang til at gå til Parlamentets formand med sin klage og få klagen behandlet, hvis den selvfølgelig falder inden for de fastlagte kriterier.
Many petitions have to do with border crossings; others stem from a lack of familiarity with Community regulations and procedures having a bearing on the way in which administrative authorities carry out their functions.
