Så medmindre vi håret system, hvor alle medlemsstaternes centralbanker vil forsvare den valuta, der er under pres, får vi yderligere problemer i valutakursmekanismen.
The ERDF resources for Maastricht were partly granted in the pre­reform period — before 1989 — in the form of aid for individual projects and since 1989 the aid has formed part of the regional Objective 2 programmes.
PINHEIRO. — (EN) Jeg kan kun erklære mig særdeles enig i det, hr. Lane sagde.
VERHAGEN (PPE). — (NL) I would begin by stating my agreement that the subsidy regarding Maastricht airport is beyond dispute.
MAHER (LDR). — (EN) Er kommissæren ikke enig i, at det er en illusion at tro, at der kan være økonomisk konvergens uden monetær union?
In this particular case, however, the regional authorities in each case decided that there was a very strong case for the development of these regional airports.
Det er den nødvendige høne, der skal komme inden ægget. Hvis vi ville have økonomisk konvergens, ville den bestemt have været der i større omfang nu, hvis det var muligt uden en monetær union. Vi har haft EMS'en i mange år, og der er ingen tydelige tegn på, at den økonomiske konvergens er lige randt om hjørnet.
That was a view the Commission shared.
MILLAN, medlem af Kommissionen. — (EN) Der har i det sidste par år været bekymringer over en tendens til skattelovgivning i De Forenede Stater, der diskriminerer mod virksomheder i udenlandsk eje.
I do not believe that having helped one airport it was wrong to help another, despite the fact that they are reasonably close.
Man regner med, at dette problem vil blive behandlet under kommende bilaterale drøftelser, for at man kan finde en ligevægt mellem USA's skattevæsens rimelige behov og de byrder, virksomhederne får pålagt.
I repeat that we are very anxious, now that the single market is fully in operation, to encourage cross­border and inter­regional cooperation.
PINHEIRO. — (EN) Jeg vil ikke lade mig drage ind i en sådan diskussion, men lad mig blot sige, at hvis De for eksempel ser på De Forenede Stater, er der så fuld konvergens mellem Californien og nogle af midtstaterne, f. eks. Arkansas?
To begin with, what I actually wanted to hear from the Commission was that it is too crazy for words that support is going to be given to another airport — at Liège — in addition to Maastricht.
Hindrer det dem i at have en fælles mønt? Nej. Det, jeg har sagt, er, at der må være en klar tendens hen imod konvergens.
Secondly, how much money is involved?
Jeg sagde ikke fuld lighed.
So how much is involved?
WIJSENBEEK (LDR). — (EN) Hr. formand, er De ikke enig med mig i, at det svar, vi lige hørte, var lidt for kompliceret for hr. Cassidy, og kan torierne ikke overlade deres spørgsmål til hr. Pierrôs, der tilsyneladende forstår svarene?
WIJSENBEEK (LDR). — (NL) The Commissioner was right in saying that the investment in Maastricht was useful, but in the meantime it has become a somewhat useless investment, precisely because from the Flemish side — especially on the part of Tongeren and Hasselt —
PIERROS (PPE). — (GR) Lad os holde os til selve spørgsmålet.
VERHAGEN (PPE). — (NL) As I see it, the Commissioner is refusing to answer the question of whether the test regarding crossborder cooperation has to be con ducted by the Commission instead of leaving it up to the regions.
Jeg vil geme spørge kommissæren om følgende: Eftersom fru Scrivener har rejst spørgsmålet, vil jeg gerne spørge, hvilke konkrete foran staltninger vi har mulighed for at træffe på nuværende tidspunkt.
protests have been made about the east/west runway, and pressure has come from Maastricht to transfer some flights to Bierset and then from Liège airport to Zaventem, which is barely 60 km further away.
Har Fællesskabet mulighed for at give de amerikanske virksomheder, der er beliggende inden for EF, samme behandling?
To be frank, in my opinion the Commission has somewhat gone against its own ideas and it would probably be a good thing if it concentrated on just one airport and did not continue to subsidize all three airports, especially as far as environmental and noise pollution are concerned.
MILLAN. — (EN) Det sker ikke på Fællesskabets territorium; det sker i De Forenede Stater, hvis jeg har forstået det ærede medlems spørgsmål.
MILLAN. — Yes, so far as it is relevant we do. But the House must understand that there is no point in talking about subsidiarity and then expecting the Commission always to impose particular solutions on regional and national authorities.
Nej, jeg mener ikke, vi kan tillade det at fortsætte.
These are issues which, in the first instance, are decisions for the regional and national authorities concerned.
Vi må sørge for, at denne diskriminerende praksis standses, og til syvende og sidst står det altid åbent for Kommissionen at gøre gengæld.
Where there is an obvious clash of interests in the other instance that I mentioned, which happens to be a case involving Ireland and Northern Ireland, we refused assistance in the second case because we believed that the needs of the area could be dealt with by the first of the airports that had been developed which we had helped to finance.
Det er ikke udelukket.
In that case, we took these considerations into account.
Men der er drøftelser i gang i øjeblikket, og fru Scrivener mener, at det vil blive muligt at nå til nogle fornuftige konklusioner på disse drøftelser.
In this particular case, I do not believe there was any reason why the Commission should intervene.
MILLAN, medlem af Kommissionen. — (EN) Kommissionen mener, at kampen mod arbejdsløsheden skal være en af de højest prioriterede opgaver for Kommissionen i 1993 og videre frem.
PRESIDENT. — Question No 63 by Mrs Llorca Vilaplana (H-0492/93):
Hvis der ikke gribes energisk ind, er prognosen, at arbejdsløshedstallet i Fællesskabet vil overstige 17 millioner ved årets udgang.
MILLAN. — I think that there have been problems on the east/west runways as mentioned by the honourable Member.
Dette initiativ drejer sig om den indsats, der skal ske både på fællesskabsplan og nationalt plan.
I can think of a case in another part of the Community where we have helped to finance one particular airport.
Hvad det nationale plan angår, blev den samlede pakke af foran staltninger, initiativet indeholdt, forelagt af Fælles skabets finansministre den 19. april.
If the authorities wanted to go ahead themselves with their own money, that was a matter for them but we would not finance a second airport in these circumstances.
Jeg kan ikke se, hvordan Fælles skabet som helhed kan tage repressive skridt over for De Forenede Stater.
Subject: El Altet international airport (Alicante, Spain)
Det er i virkeligheden fællesskabs landet, der skal søge at give skatteindrømmelser til sine firmaer, hvis de har en filial i De Forenede Stater.
CORNELISSEN (PPE). — (NL) The Commission is not just responsible for the legitimacy of expenditure, but also for its appropriateness.
Det er temmelig kompliceret, og det er ikke så enkelt, som kommissæren siger, at gøre gengæld for det, der sker.
Hence, I would like to ask the Commissioner whether he would not consider tightening the conditions for awarding subsidies as far as projects which quite clearly involve a crossborder aspect, in so far as before the subsidy can be awarded, the crossborder effects must be examined.
Siden har Kommissionen vedtaget en ny meddelelse om en fællesskabsdækkende ramme for beskæftigelsen.
There appears at present to be justified concern about the possible fate of El Altet airport (Spain).
Det vil naturligvis være muligt for forsamlingen at få yderligere oplysninger efter denne pressekonference.
Does the EC have any plans to reduce international services at this airport?
Men jeg kan i øjeblikket sige, at Kommissionen agter at forelægge analyser over og for slag til samordnet indsats på otte forskellige områder: Tilpasning og nye beskæftigelsesformer, nye arbejdstidsstrukturer, oplæring, arbejdskraftomkostninger, nye arbejdsområder, skabelse af arbejdspladser i små og mellemstore virksomheder, lokale initiativer, brug af arbejdsformidlingskontorer, arbejdsmarkedets parter.
Local inhabitants and the chambers of commerce of the Region of Valencia have expressed their concern and anxiety at the situation facing the airport, which is of vital interest to the southeast region.
Disse spørgsmål vil også blive taget op i Kommissionens rapport om beskæftigelse i Europa, der vil blive offentliggjort i juni, og i den »beskæftigelsesuge« der skal afholdes i Bruxelles i oktober.
VAN MIERT, Member of the Commission. — (FR) Mr President, firstly, intra-Community air traffic service provided by Community airlines is governed by Com munity legislation and — especially now — by the third package, which has been applied since the beginning of this year but which contains no limit on access to the airport in question.
MILLAN. — (EN) Jeg var ikke klar over, at jeg sagde, det var enkelt.
MILLAN. — I wonder if I could make a very simple point with regard to the present system of Community finance under Objective 2.
Der er spørgsmålet om de administrative byrder, der pålægges fællesskabsvirksomheder, der arbejder i De Forenede Stater, og om de i alle forhold er rimelige.
The total finance available to the authorities concerned does not change whether they go ahead with one project rather than another.
Og der er visse forhold, hvor Kommissionen ikke finder dem rimelige.
There is no question here of us singling out a particular project for special assistance.
Derfor må vi søge en tilpasning i disse spørgsmål med De Forenede Staters myndigheder.
It is a question of the priorities being essentially decided by the regional and national authorities themselves within a financial total which is not augmented to deal with any particular projects.
Der er også problemet om det enhedsskattesystem i visse stater i De Forenede Stater, som i lange tider har været et problem.
So in this particular case, insofar as we are dealing with expenditure which has been ERDF part-financed since 1989, we are responding to priorities which the regional authorities themselves have determined within the over all balance of funding which is available from the Commission.
Nogle af vedkommende spørgsmål er indbragt for De Forenede Staters højesteret i øjeblikket.
We do not normally decide on individual projects unless they are of a particular scale beyond what has been involved here.
Arbejdsløsheden er et problem for alle, og i den nuværende situation mener Kommissionen, at det er nødvendigt at mobilisere alle ressourcer for at bekæmpe den.
Therefore the Commission did not intervene and in this case — if we look at the statistics from last year — there was still growth in activity at this airport.
Det andet spørgsmål, det ærede medlem rejste, er lidt anderledes, og det ligger inden for Fællesskabets enkelte medlemsstaters kompetence. Spørgsmålet drejede sig om diskriminerende skattepraksis fra De Forenede Staters myndigheders side.
Consequently, I can only remark that the question put to us oversteps the subject as such, since, firstly, there has been growth in activity, secondly, at Community level we cannot and we do not intervene, and thirdly, we are not competent as regards the international dimension.
FORMANDEN. — Da spørgeren ikke er til stede, vil spørgsmål nr. 57 blive besvaret skriftligt (')·
LLORCA VILAPLANA (PPE). — (ES) I welcome the answer from the Commissioner which, once and for all, clears up the question I wanted answered.
Spørgsmål nr. 58 af Newens, overtaget af Balfe (H0420/93):
In other words, the Community is in no way involved in the decisions concerning international flights from the El Altet y Manises airport.
Er Kommissionen klar over medlemmemes alvorlige bekymring over den voksende arbejdsløshed i Fæl lesskabet, hvor der som eksempel kan nævnes Rolls Royce's beslutning om at nedlægge 5.000 arbejds-
Where we believe that a particular project is obviously unsatisfactory in relation to crossborder cooperation or anything else, we would have a view about that, but in this case we have not taken that view.
Jeg vil geme spørge kommissæren, om han er bekendt med avismeddelelser i denne uge om, at London endelig af den britiske regering påtænkes at komme i betragtning som værdig til at modtage regionalstøtte til hjælp i arbejdsløshedssituationen dér, og kan jeg få en forsikring fra ham om, at han vil reagere lige så positivt på enhver anmodning fra den britiske regering, som han har reageret på andre forslag, som socialisterne her i huset har stillet ham?
We believe that the investment in both places is justified and therefore there is no reason why the Commission should try to intervene against the wishes of the regional authorities themselves, and I think some of these questions ought to be addressed to them rather than to the Commission.
Hvad Det Forenede Kongeriges regering måtte have i tankerne vedrørende sin egen udpegning af støtteområder, er dens sag, og han bør rette sine spørgsmål til den i stedet for her at komme med latterlige udtalelser om Kommissionens handlinger.
As for the security considerations, Mr Cornelissen will, I am sure, understand that we can only intervene indirectly in such matters, draw the attention of the authorities to the matter, and say that it is an extremely bothersome thing, and that the relevant authorities are responsible for ensuring that an improvement is made in this area.
FORMANDEN. — Da spørgerne ikke er til stede, vil spørgsmål nr. 59 og 60 blive besvaret skriftligt (').
VAN MIERT. — (FR) I do not really understand, since the figures from last year show that there has been an increase.
Da de følgende spørgsmål vedrører samme emne, vil vi under ét behandle spørgsmål nr. 61 af Oomen­Ruijten (H­0526/93):
PRESIDENT. — Question No 64, by Mr Cornelissen (H-0426/93):
MILLAN. — (EN) Vedrørende anden del af spørgsmålet mener jeg, at regeringen i Det Forenede Kongerige endnu ikke har fremsat nogen anmodninger til Kommissionen om bistandsområder, som man er ved at se på igen i forbindelse med Det Forenede Kongeriges egen planer om regional støtte.
CORNELISSEN (PPE). — (NL) I would like to thank Commissioner Van Miert for his extensive answer, which indicates that he is highly sympathetic with regard to the whole problem.
Men det er for tidligt at sige, om London bliver inkluderet.
As he himself has said, unfortunately there is no sign of improvement as yet.
Vi må vente og se, hvordan forslagene ser ud, og hvad reaktionen måtte blive.
My fear, based on my experience during a recent visit to the German-Polish border, is that the situation is rather worsening.
Det ærede medlem ved, at jeg personlig er særdeles godt bekendt med nogle af problemerne i dele af London, og i det meget begrænsede omfang, jeg har kunnet anvende strukturfondene, har vi givet en vis støtte.
The amount of traffic is growing, which is a good thing, but there is nothing to indicate any kind of improvement in the way it is processed at the border.
Men hans bemærkning rejser bredere spørgsmål, som kan overvejes til sin tid, hvis og når vi modtager nogen anmodning fra Det Forenede Kongeriges regering om dens plan for støtteområderne.
I have received nearly a dozen letters from haulage con tractors in the Netherlands who are deeply concerned about the situation, and that is why I have two questions to ask the Commissioner.
Om: Støtte i form af EF­bevillinger til lufthavnene i Maastricht (NL) og Bierset (Β)
Subject: Long delays and extortion at East European border posts
McMAHON (PSE). — (EN) Kommissionens bestræbel­ser i denne henseende er yderst prisværdige, men kan vi få et tilsagn fra Kommissionen om, at den vil holde op med at føre politik via pressemeddelelser og pressekon­ferencer?
Is the Commission aware of extremely long delays to goods traffic, and also to passenger traffic, and of theft, threats and extortion committed against drivers at various East European border posts?
I virkeligheden burde kommissær Flynn kom­me her og forelægge Europa­Parlamentet sine syns­punkter, inden han meddeler dem til den nationale presse og holder pressekonferencer.
Will the Commission register a strong protest, at the highest level, with the governments of the countries concerned about these unacceptable practices and discuss what the European Community can do to help solve the problem, either by making EC customs officers available or in other ways?
Er der blevet gennemført en feasibility­undersøgelse af, hvorvidt de to lufthavne (Maastricht NL — Bierset B) er økonomisk rentable inden for samme europæiske region i en afstand af 38 km?
Firstly, is he prepared to spare some time himself — or with those of his colleagues who are most closely involved — to meet myself and a delegation of haulage contractors and give them ample reassurance that some thing is being done to solve these problems?
Er det rigtigt, at Maastricht­lufthavnen kan gøre krav på samme støtte fra strukturfondene, som er bevilget til Bierset­lufthavnen?
My second question is whether the Commission is also willing to make staff who are experienced in customs matters available to the Eastern European countries?
Er det muligt for Kommissionen at forelægge en oversigt over de aftaler og tilsagn, som hhv. er blevet indgået med og givet over for de nationale og i dette tilfælde de regionale myndighe­der?
After all, we still have quite a few officials within the Community whose services are — happily — no longer needed, due to the abolition of border checks at our internal borders.
Spørgsmål nr. 62 af Verhagen (H­0527/93/ændr.):
I am hoping to receive a positive answer from the Commissioner on both counts.
Når det er sagt, vil jeg spørge, om Kommissionen er villig til at kommentere nogle af de andre pressemeddelelser i denne uge, nemlig at man er ved at gennemføre en undersøgelse i Kommissionen om socialsikringens og de sociale tjenesteydelsers virkning på den stigende arbejds­løshed?
VAN MIERT, Member of the Commission. — (NL) This is a problem of which I am very much aware, since I have often been involved with it in the past, not only because Mr Cornelissen regularly reminded me of the issue, but also other Members of Parliament, but also — naturally — because companies complained.
MILLAN. — (EN) Jeg synes, det ærede medlem skal se, hvad hr. Flynn har sagt efter den beslutning, Kommis­sionen traf på sit møde i går.
VAN MIERT. — (NL) I think I can elaborate on both questions.
Det er klart, at jeg har set nogle af de andre pressemeddelelser.
I assume that my colleagues, Mr Matutes and Mrs Scrivener, would be prepared to receive such a delegation.
Det ærede medlem vil erkende, at nogle af disse meddelelser absolut afviger stærkt fra det, Kommissionen har vedtaget i dag.
In any event, I shall ask them to do so and — I repeat — I assume that they will offer their support.
Kan han fortælle mig, hvor mange arbejdspladser der er skabt i den tid, han har været kommissær, for ikke at tale om hvor mange arbejdspladser der er ødelagt?
Of course, what we are unable and unwilling to let the authorities do is use our customs officials to perform checks on the other side of the border.
Kan han også en gang til reagere på pressemeddelelser om, at dele af det sydøstli­ge Wales vil falde ud som bistandsområder?
Although a few years ago the German authorities, in the person of Mr Krause, offered to train mixed teams — I was there with the Czechoslovakian authorities, as they still were at the time — apparently his proposal was not taken up.
Hvordan kan dette tænkes at påvirke beskæftigelsessituationen i Sydøstwales?
So I know from first-hand experience that efforts have already been made by the main country concerned — primarily Germany, but apparently this did not result in much actually being done.
Og hvis vi virkelig falder ud, kan han så forstå, at befolkningen i disse lokalsamfund, der er nogle af de dårligst stillede i Det Forenede Kongerige, vil nære endnu større foragt for denne institution, end den gør i øjeblikket?
Consequently, at the moment we are limited to training good customs officials whose attitude and dedication are such as to keep the red tape to a minimum.
MILLAN, medlem af Kommissionen. — (EN) Med hen­syn til Bierset­lufthavnen i Belgien blev der gennemført en strategisk undersøgelse, som blev fulgt op af en lønsomhedsundersøgelse af kombineret luft­vej­trans­port, som snart vil være afsluttet.
Now I am forced to remark that this is the case despite the efforts made by the European Community in the mean time, for — as Mr Cornelissen is well aware, I am sure — we have managed within the framework of the PHARE programmes to release considerable funds intended to make rapid improvements to the infrastructure at particular border posts, and there are several projects on the go at the moment.
Vedrørende øst­vest­banen i Maastrichts lufthavn i Nederlandene har de nederlandske myndigheder gennemført en costbenefita­nalyse.
Unfortunately, Mr Cornelissen, they have not yet been implemented, but I can give you details of them, should you be interested, as well as list the amounts earmarked for them within the framework of the PHARE programmes.
EFRU­pengene til luft­havnen i Liège blev bevilget i perioden efter reformen — efter 1989 — og de er en integrerende del af de regionale mål 2 programmer.
It now looks as if things are taking some what longer than we anticipated, and the long delays are primarily a result of bureaucracy.
EFRU­pengene til Maastricht blev delvis bevilget i perioden inden reformen — inden 1989 — i form af støtte til individuelle projekter, og efter 1989
Indeed, we find that in these countries, despite the fact that the communist regimes have disappeared, the terribly bureaucratic methods which they engendered have still not been
MILLAN. — (EN) Jeg ved ikke, hvorfor det ærede medlem kom med den sidste bemærkning, for det, han taler om, er spekulationer om afgørelser fra Det Forenede Kongeriges regerings side, ikke beslutninger i Kommis­
WIJSENBEEK (LDR). — (NL) I would like to thank the Commissioner for his extensive answer, which makes us yearn for the time when we still had a Commissioner responsible for transport matters who spoke to us from time to time.
') Se bilag »Spørgetid«
We are now sorely missing that Commissioner.
MILLAN har støtten udgjort en del af de regionale mål 2 program mer.
WIJSENBEEK a safeguard — direct landings of fishery products from third country ships in Community ports.
Jeg har ved mange lejligheder besvaret spørgsmål om det.
That would seem to be a necessary addition to make.
VERHAGEN (PPE). — (NL) Jeg konstaterer allerførst med tilfredshed, at støtten til Maastricht-lufthavnen er hævet over enhver tvivl.
VAN MIERT. — (NL) I believe that this is one of the suggestions we ought to discuss with a delegation con sisting of Mr Cornelissen and a number of other Members of Parliament and their colleagues.
Jeg har noteret mig Kommissionens løfte om at støtte udviklingen af Maastricht lufthavnen.
I think it is a good idea, and I remember that the German authorities already offered to make efforts in this respect and have also provided possible facilities.
Ikke desto mindre må jeg dog sige, at jeg er lidt irriteret over den øvrige del af svaret.
PRESIDENT. — Question No 65, by Mr Barrera I Costa (H-0496/93)
For det andet, hvor mange penge drejer det sig om?
Subject.'
Hvor mange drejer det sig om?
The crisis in the fisheries sector
WIJSENBEEK (LDR). — (NL) Kommissæren nævnte med rette en nyttig investering i Maastricht, men i mellemtiden er det blevet en ret nytteløs investering, netop fordi der fra flamsk side, bl.a. fra Tongeren og Hasselt, er indløbet protester mod øst-vest-banen, og at man derfor fra Maastricht-side har presset på for at flytte visse fly til Bierset og dernæst fra Liège-lufthavnen til Zaventem, der ligger under 60 km herfra.
The crisis in the fisheries sector, brought about by the large-scale marketing of fish from non-Community countries, is now affecting the sale of all kinds of fish. Mediterranean fishermen — particularly those from the Catalan coast — have been hit very hard.
