Früh (PPE). - (DE) Hr. formand, vi takker rådsformanden for denne meddelelse, hvoraf tydeligt frem går én ting: Landbrugsministerrådets beslutninger er denne gang et kernespørgsmål, hvis vi overhovedet skal have et budget. De har henvist til, at Europa-Parlamentets beslutninger er et overordentlig vigtigt moment i Deres drøftelser.
Mr President, with my responsibilities for the time being, as President-in-Office of the Council, I am determined to press hard for decisions to be reached on each of the three dossiers to which I have referred before the end of this current meeting of the Council.
Hr. formand, med mit ansvar for øjeblikket som for mand for Rådet er jeg fast besluttet på at presse hårdt på for at få truffet beslutninger i hver enkelt af de tre nævnte sager inden afslutningen af det nuværende rådsmøde.
FRÜH (PPE). — (DE) Mr President, we thank the President of the Council for this statement, which makes one thing clear at least: the decisions taken by the Council of Agriculture Ministers this time will be the central issue in deciding whether there is to be a budget or not.
Formanden. — Jeg takker rådsformanden for hans redegørelse.
PRESIDENT. — Thank you for that statement, Mr President-in-Office.
Er Landbrugsministerrådet klar over, at Europa-Parlamentet for første gang og hovedsagelig på vort initiativ med 80% af stemmerne — aldrig tidligere har der været et så klart og tydeligt resultat — har opfordret Rådet til at indføre udligningsbeløb ved en kvotanedsættelse, da man ikke kan byde landmændene, at man ganske enkelt sænker deres indkomster uden at tage højde for de dybtgående virkninger, der op træder samtidig.
Is the Council of Agriculture Ministers clearly aware that we in this European Parliament have now, for the first time, largely on our own initiative, and with an 80% majority — never before has there been such a clear and decisive vote — done our best to make it clear to the Council that compensatory payments musi be introduced along with the quota reductions, because farmers cannot be expected simply to sit back and allow their incomes to be reduced without any consideration being given to the far-reaching sideeffects?
Hr. Andriessen, som ønskede at være til stede under mødet, beklager, at han ikke kan komme, da han på grund af de dårlige vejrforhold sidder fast i sit fly i Bruxelles.
Mr Andriessen, who wished to attend the sitting sends his apologies but he is not able to come because his plane cannot leave Brussels. This is the sort of problem we encounter with the weather at this time of year in some parts of the Community.
Artikel 40, stk. 2, i forretningsordenen indeholder bestemmelse om, at medlemmerne after en sådan redegørelse fra Rådet kan stille spørgsmål, hvis de ønsker det, Dette kan ske inden for en periode på i alt 30 minutter. Jeg vil følgelig anmode talerne om at fatte sig i korthed.
MARTIN Simone (LDR). — (FR) We all realize, of course, that supply will have to be brought more into line with demand, but I should like to ask the Presi­dent­in­Office of the Council if he really thinks prod­ucers are going to be in a position to meet the demands being made on them this time?
Vi opfordrer Dem derfor til under de drøftelser, som De vil genoptage, at tage hensyn til dette votum fra Parlamentets side.
We therefore call on you, when you come to resume hese discussions, to take full account of this vote by Parliament.
Det samme gælder også for Kom missionen — det er en skam, at hr. Andriessen ikke er her — vi er jo i sidste instans de europæiskd folks direkte valgte parlamentsmedlemmer.
The same also applies to the Commission ­ and it is a pity Mr Andriessen is not here — for we ire after all directly elected representatives of the peo­)les of Europe.
Vi er ikke ind stillet på fortsat udelukkende at overlade landbrugs politikkens skæbne til regeringernes tovtrækkeri.
We are not prepared to leave the uture of agricultural policy to the outcome of a iquabble between the governments.
Curry (ED). — (EN) Hr. formand, må jeg på budget udvalgets vegne spørge, om formanden vil bekræfte, at han har modtaget de ændringsforslag.
It is true that the terms of compensation envisaged are a little better, especially for meat producers, but I also have the feeling that the incomes of milk producers have been forgotten, for they are affected by the fall in prices of both milk and meat.
Parlamentet vedtog under førstebehandlingen og bekræftede på efterfølgende møder i budgetudvalget, og som vedrører kvotanedskæringer, kompensation, lagerafvikling og nedskrivning?
I should also like to ask him what assurances we have that the reductions in supply the Commission is again preparing to put into effect will not simply be can­celled out by increased production from the other major producing countries?
Provan (ED). — (EN) Vil formanden venligst fortælle os her i formiddag, hvordan den generelle finansielle situation vil blive afhjulpet?
'ROVAN (ED). — I wonder if the President­in­Off­ce would be good enough to tell us this morning how he overall financial situation is going to be resolved?
Jeg glæder mig over, at det ser u d til, at der er ved at blive opbygget en vilje i Rådet til rent faktisk at gøre noget ved overproduktionen i Fællesskabet.
I welcome the fact that there appears to be an impetus wilding up in the Council to actually do something ibout overproduction within the Community.
Men det vil generelt set få meget dårlige følger i landdistrikterne, og jeg gad vide, om formanden kan sige noget om, hvordan det vil blive afbødet? Det skal også finansieres.
But that fill have a very bad effect in the rural areas generally, ind I wonder if the President­in­Office could give us ome indication how this will be alleviated?
Vil rådsformanden sige, hvad Rådet agter at gøre i denne henseende, idet der særlig tages højde dor den forbindelse mellem kompensation, produktionsnedskæringer og afvikling, som vi har skabt i Parlamentet, og som vi mener er kernen i dilemmaet med hen syn til reformen af landbrugspolitikken?
Another thing that worries us in this Parliament is the present level of stocks. I should like to know what act­ion the Council intends to take and what specific mea­sures it will implement to eliminate these stocks, which are putting severe pressure on market prices and con­sequently on producer incomes.
Selvfølgelig er lagerafviklingsprogrammet det væsentligste spørgsmål, og sådsformanden sagde, hvis jeg hørte rigtigt, at der vil blive forelagt flere forslag i den henseende.
MUSSO (RDE). — (FR) I thank the President­in­Office of the Council for being with us here today, but the question I want to ask him is a more general one.
Det er en generel løsning, der er brug for, hvis vi skal afhjælpe situationen, og jeg tror, vi bør kende hele løsningen.
But surely it is an overall pack­ge that we are looking for; it is an overall package hat is required if we are going to resolve the situation iroperly and I think we need to know the entire pack­ge.
Jeg håber derfor, at rådsformanden kan sige noget om, hvad der vil ske med lagrene.
I therefore would hope that the President­in­Off­ce can give us some indication as to what will happen ο the stocks.
Castle (S). — (EN) Endnu en gang har vi hørt smukke ord fra formandskabet og ingen handling.
ÎATTI (COM). — (IT) Mr President, my Group ails to see why we should thank the British Minister if Agriculture; in fact we think that he might as well lave saved himself the journey, particularly in view of he bad weather and dense fog.
Er det ikke en kendsgerning, at Parlamentet var berettiget til handling fra formandskabets side for at standse det overforbrug i landbrugssektoren, der truer i 1987?
I should next like to ask the British Minister of Agri­culture what he intends to do in relation to those Member States — his own in particular — that had the highest increases in production between 1974 and 1984.
Den burde være kommet, inden vi vedtog budgettet i dag.
Pe note, moreover, that no agreement has been eached.
Uden handling vil budgettet blive endnu mere meningsløst, end det er for øjeblikket.
You have been saying for some months now, iinister, that your colleagues are giving your propo­als detailed consideration, yet nothing has actually een done.
Er det ikke også en kendsgerning, at formandskabets egne forslag om at nedskære mælkeproduktionen ved at skærpe kvotaerne er svagere end Kommissionens
Is it true that we overproduce only at the rate of 8% above consumption in dairy products, and that it is because of unjustifiable import agree­ments, in particular for New Zealand and Australian products, that we have substantially increased our stocks?
Gatti (COM). — (IT) Hr. formand, min gruppe me ner faktisk ikke at burde takke den engelske land brugsminister; i stedet kunne han efter vores opfattelse måske have sparet sig rejsen, specielt når man ser på det dårlige vejr og den tætte tåge.
DEVEZE (DR). — (FR) I too should like to ask the President­in­Office what he intends to do to assist — not to say to relieve — small­scale dairy producers in regions where no conversion is possible, producers whose incomes are falling from day to day and will fall further still.
Idet vi jo alle læser aviser og gennemløber de normale pressenyheder, er det bestemt ikke nogen fornøjelse her at få ting
They are now in a catastrophic impasse and risk being forced out of farming altogether.
Gatti at vide af en så kvalificeret repræsentant, som på ingen måde var nye for os.
Deveze internally is not simply taken over by unnecessar imports from overseas?
De har nu i flere måneder gentaget, hr. minister, at Deres kolleger anser Deres forslag for grundlæggende, uden at der i øvrigr er sket noget som helst.
It would certainly also be to the Council's credit ι at the same time it were to take measures to ru down stocks of agricultural products.
Kan Rådet nøjagtigt fortælle os, hvor stor en del af overskudsproduktionen, der, når disse foranstaltning er er truffet, kan henføres til Fællesskabets producenter?
Secondly, I should like to know what he intends to do about one of the worst offenders where agricultural surpluses are concerned, by which I mean the chemi­cals industry.
Er det korrekt, at vi kun producerer 8% mere, end vi forbruger af mejeriprodukter.og at det skyldes helt utilstedelige importaftaler med New Zealand og Australien, at vi i væsentlig grad har forøget vore lagerbeholdninger?
This industry and its technology have been responsible for the doubling of yields in constant terms over the last 15 years.
Hvad sagen angår, bemærker jeg, at der intet er blevet sagt om fonden til nedbringelse af lagrene.
I don't believe enough people are prepared to face this fact.
Det er derfor nødvendigt, at De fortæller os, om dette vil blive holdt uden for de forhandlinger, man har til hensigt at genoptage på lørdag.
It is high time there were some controls over the chemicals indus­tries, or some agreement reached with them.
Devèze (DR). — (FR) Hr. formand, også jeg vil geme spørge Dem, hvad De regner med at gøre for at hjælpe — for ikke at sige undsætte — de små mælkeproducenter i de egne.der ikke har nogen mulighed for produktionsomlægning, og hvis indtægter falder for hver dag, der går, og yderligere vil gå ned?
NEWTON DUNN (ED). — Mr President, the Presi dent­in­Office of the Council is a good democrat an he knows that the Agriculture Council's decisions ar going to be painful and controversial.
De befinder sig i en katastrofal blindgade og står i fare for helt at forsvinde.
He cannot b entirely happy that the eventual decisions made by th Agriculture Council are not going to be subject t approval by the elected representatives of the public either in a national parliament or here.
Dernæst vil jeg gerne have oplyst, hvad De regner med at gøre ved en af de mest skyldige i landbrugsoverskuddene, nemlig den kemiske industri.
Does the Minister not believe that it is high time for negotiations to begin between the European Economic Community and the United States so as to demarcate their respective responsibilities in relation to surpluses in world terms, and perhaps to work out an equitable basis for determining their respective shares of world markets?
Vedrørende »afskaffelsen af lagrene« — som hr. Pro van allerede berørte — il jeg gerne høre, hvilke for slag, hvilket program man agter at forelægge?
Would the President­in­Office, therefore, find it help ful to submit the Agriculture Council's eventual deci sions to this Parliament for approval in order to wi for it popular democratic support?
Denne industri og dens metoder har nu igennem fem ten år muliggjort en konstant forbedring af ydelsen, som nu er fordoblet.
GARCÍA RAYA (S). — (SP) Mr President, in its first reading of the budget, this Parliament adopted a series of measures which would serve to break the deadlock in thè genuinely grave situation relating to agricultural surpluses.
Jeg synes ikke, at der er nogen, der letter på denne flig af sløret.
The Council, in reply, has given us very lit­tle, if anything at all.
Det er på høje tid, at vi får styr på den kemiske industri og får en aftale i stand med den.
You tell us that such an agreement could be reached on Satur­day.
Simone Martin (LDR). - (FR) Selvfølgelig er vi alle klar over, at der bør ske en bedre tilpasning af udbud og efterspørgsel, men jeg vil gerne spørge formanden for Rådet, om det ikke er hans indtryk, at den ind sats, der vil blive krævet, endnu en gang hovedsagelig skal bæres af producenterne?
MAHER (LDR). — Mr President, my question relate to the milk sector. I would like to ask the Presi dent­in­Office of the Council what the objection is o: the part of the Council to the establishment of nation; quotas and to dropping the idea of freezing exchange of milk between farmers or between regions.
Ganske vist overvejer man lidt bedre kompensationer, især til kødproducenterne, men jeg har samtidig indtrykket af, at man glemmer mælkeproducenternes indtægter, der rammes af faldet i mælke- og kødpriserne.
As I am required to make my situation clear on the budget within a few hours, I need to know from you what this agreement on Saturday will consist of, or in other words how you are planning to put some subst­ance into the p.m. you have allocated in line 293.
Hr. minister, tror De ikke, at det er på høje tid at aktivere forhandlingerne mellem Det europæiske økonomiske Fællesskab og De forenede Stater, så man på verdensplan kan fastslå ansvaret for over skuddene og måske få gennemført en rimelig forde ling af de eksterne markeder, der skal erobres?
My second question is: since approximately 12% o the producers produce over 40% of the milk, or 30°/ produce 80% of the milk, should the very large prod ucers not be asked to make the sacrifice of reducin; milk production, in that way allowing the small prod ucers at least to maintain their present quantities ani to continue in farming in their regions?
Jeg vil også gerne spørge formanden, hvilken sikker hed vi har for at den udbudsbegrænsning, som Fællesskabet på ny forbereder sig på at gennemføre, ikke modvirkes af de andre store producentlandes produktion?
I think it will be important to avoid undue haste. We often get upset over decisions from Brussels that are taken by the Council in a hurry and under pres­sure, the inadequacy of which is later excused on the grounds that they were taken in precisely those condi­tions.
Hvad agter Rådet rent faktisk at gøre?
So we think this was a wise move.
En anden ting, der optager os her i Parlamentet, er de nuværende lagerbeholdninger.
Firstly, what form will the compensation to milk producers take?
Som svar har Rådet givet os meget lidt, det har ikke givet os noget. Nu siger De, at det ikke har været muligt at nå til en aftale, at der er små punkter tilbage, næsten ubetydelige detaljer, for at der kan nås til en aftale.
My first concerns the agricultural budgei What specific measures does the Council intend ti take to encourage the running­down or depreciatioi of existing stocks, so as ultimately to eliminate then completely?
De siger, at man ville kunne nå til en aftale på lørdag.
How in particular does he expect ti finance such measures, given that own resources ti that end are non­existent?
Musso (RDE). — (FR) Jeg glæder mig over, at for manden for Rådet i dag er til stede, en det spørgsmål, jeg vil stille, er nærmest af generel karakter.
I go along with previou speakers in insisting on any new measures to reduc quotas being conditional on the run­down of existin¡ stocks.
Da jeg er forpligtet til inden for nogle timer at udtale mig om budgettet, vil jeg gerne have at vide af Dem, hvad De mener, aftalen på lørdag vil gå ud på, dvs. hvorledes De f.eks. har til hensigt at give dette p. m. indhold, der er tildelt artikel 293.
Secondly, are you aware that when quota arrangements were introduced it was assumed that agricultural prices would be maintained, whereas the lifting of intervention means that agricultural prices are falling despite the quota arrangements, which really defeats their whole purpose?
Bocklet (PPE). - (DE) Hr. formand, jeg finder det klogt, at Rådet har afbrudt sit møde og givet delegationerne tid til eftertanke.
My second question is on the connection to be estab lished between the reduction of quotas in the EEC am equivalent measures in other exporting countries which are even now stepping up their production.
Jeg mener, det er vigtigt, at beslutningerne ikke træffes for hurtigt.
Th Council statement to be included in the proposed deci sion is little more than a pious hope, is it not?
Dernæst vil jeg spørge den britiske landbrugsminister, hvad han after at gøre med hensyn til de med lemsstater — og da ikke mindst hans egen — der har forøget produktionen stærkest mellem 1974 of 1984.
What i now being decided in relation to imports of manio originating in China hardly encourages us to hav confidence in the Community in this connection What conclusions will the Commission draw from thi
Som flere kolleger vil også jeg gerne påpege det for hold, at der skal være samtidighed mellem alle nye kvotanedskæringer og foranstaltninger til afvikling af lagerbeholdningerne.
Having igard to the gigantic surpluses which, as we all know, present an enormous waste of the taxpayer's money, ie Council has not — as the President has informed s— been in a position to implement reforms. I thereire wish to ask:
For det første: Hvordan bør kompensationen til mælkeproducenterne se ud? Får de store producenter den samme kompensation som de små?
Will he make sure, using the athletic limbs that he has developed through his skill in motorbike riding, that he gives a great kick to DG VI in the Commission whose officials refuse to look outside the narrow defi­nition of the agriculture sector and discuss with Mem­bers of this Parliament and the outside world how new jobs can be created in the countryside to replace those that are going in agriculture?
For det andet: Er De klar over, at sikringen af land brugspriserne var forbundet med kvotaordningen, og at interventionens ophævelse medfører, at landbrugs priserne falder til trods for kvotaordningen, hvilket således ikke er foreneligt med kvotaordningen?
Firstly, what conception does the Council have of the need to prevent the accumulation of further stockpiles and to secure the depletion of existing stocks at reasonable cost?
Det andet spørgsmål vedrører sammenhængen mel lem kvotanedskæringer inden for Fællesskabet og lig nende foranstaltninger i andre eksportlande, som i øjeblikket udvider produktionen.
Secondly — and this is by far the more important question — does the Council still consider that the incomes of farmers can continue to be guaranteed on the basis of agricultural prices?
Er den af Rådet påtænkte erklæring, der er nævnt på listen over be slutninger, ikke blot er fromt ønske?
NIELSEN, Brøndlund (LDR). — (DA) Mr President, many crucial questions have been asked.
For det tredje: Mener De ikke også, at en produktionsnedsættelse i Fællesskabet kun kan forsvares over for vore landmænd, hvis vi samtidig og i samme omfang begrænser importen for at forhindre, at pro duktionsbegrænsningen i Fællesskabet udlignes gen nem en forceret oversøisk import.
I should like to ask the President-in-Office of the Council whether, in the course of the many negotiations, time was also found to consider the following question, on which I would like to hear the opinion of the President-in-Office: is it not unreasonable at a time when a co-responsibility levy has been imposed on animal feed processed in the Community — even though the stocks are not as large as they were last year — to accept the import of larger quantities of feed from the Far East without any levy being imposed?
I øvrigt var det sikkert passende, hvis Rådet samtidig vedtog foranstaltninger til nedbringelse af lagrene.
Is it not an error of principle which in the long run may result in a renewed accumulation of grain stocks, which at present are not that large com pared with last year?
Hoff (S). — (DE) Hr. formand, jeg forudsætter, at Landbrugsministerrådet også er bekendt med Fælles skabets finansielle situation.
EYRAUD (S). — (FR) I listened carefully to your statement, Mr President-in-Office of the Council, and I have before me your compromise proposal for the Council of Agriculture Ministers.
Newton Dunn (ED). — (EN) Hr. formand, rådsformanden er en god demokrat,og han ved, at Landbrugsministerrådets beslutninger vil blive ubehagelige og kontroversielle.
LINTON (PPE). — Mr President, at this stage most f the relevant questions have already been put.
Han kan ikke være særlig glad for, at de endelige beslutninger, Landbrugsministerrådet træffer, ikke vil blive godkendt af offentlighedens valgte repræsentanter, enten i et nationalt parlament eller her.
But )uld I ask the President-in-Office if he shares our :ry serious concern at the failure of both the Budget ouncil and the Agriculture Council to reach a deadie to meet the second reading of the budget for this :ar?
For det første: Hvilke planer har Rådet om at for hindre, at der opbygges yderligere lagre, og sikre, at de eksisterende mængder afvikles med få omkostninger? ger?
Does he appreciate the seriousness of this and Des he accept that it is the Council that has failed? 'oes he accept also that Parliament has already made serious contribution to solving the problems of the mcultural sector by its amendments recently adopted ι a very large majority in this House?
Finder formanden det derfor hensigtsmæssigt at forelægge Landbrugsministerrådets endeige beslutninger for Parlamentet til godkendelse for at vinde demokratisk støtte i befolkningen?
Because of the impensation that will have to be paid to people in the rming community who are not able to bear any ore, the Council won't make the necessary money 'ailable to get rid of existing stocks and to ensure at they don't pile up again.
For det andet — og det spørgsmål er egentlig endnu vigtigere — mener Rådet, at landmændenes indkomster også fremover kan sikres gennem landbrugspriserne? serne?
Does the President-in-ffice realize that no start can be made on solving the 'oblems of agriculture as long as the Council persists its refusal to acknowledge this fact?
Maher (LDR). — (EN) Hr. formand, mine spørgsmål vedrører mælkesektoren.
Do you intend to exonerate small producers from the additional burden of quota reductions?
Jeg vil gerne spørge rådsformanden, hvilke indvendinger Rådet har mod at op rette nationale kvotaer og droppe ideen om at fastfryse overførslerne af mælk mellem landmænd eller mellem regioner.
Do you intend to offset the rise in quotas by abolishing the responsi bility levy?
Hvilke indbendinger har det, da det, der betyder noget, er den samlede mængde mælk, der produceres i et medlemsland?
Next, do you intend to propose additional aid allocations for producers most in need, in particular in regions where there are no opportunities for conversion after coming out of dairy production?
