Burde man ikke udarbejde en tidsplan for gennemfø relsen af disse aftaler, som kunne gøre det muligt for de spanske arbejdsløse at nyde godt af de vedtagne foranstaltninger?
Article 198a of the Treaty on European Union is con cerned with the establishment of a 'Committee of the Regions' consisting of representatives of local and re gional bodies.
Hvordan kan det undgås, at denne negative afgørelse fra Aznars side skader dem?
Members are appointed by the Council acting unanimously on proposals from the respective Member States.
Desværre kan jeg i henhold til forretningsordenen ikke give hende det.
No other Member State has acted in this
Jeg giver ordet til hr. Hernández Mollar.
Henderson. - Mr Hatzidakis, I really have to refer to my original reply to the question.
Hernandez Mollar (PPE). - (ES) Hr. formand for Rå det, fru Izquierdo Rojos spørgsmål - og formuleringen heraf- kan kun opfattes som et forsøg på i Europa-Parlamentet at øve sig i den irrationelle demagogiske opposition, som hendes parti udfører i Spanien.
As you yourself have affirmed in the wording of the question, in Article 198a of the Treaty - the establishment of the Committee of the Regions composed of representatives of regional and lo cal communities - membership of regional and local bodies is the only criterion which the Treaty on European Un ion established for the appointment of members to the Committee on the Regions.
Det viser endvidere, at hun ikke har gidet læse konklusionerne fra det ekstraordinære beskæftigelsestopmøde.
The Council has no locus to question the political affiliation of nominees.
Hr. formand for Rådet, er der noget land, som er blevet fritaget fra at frem lægge sin nationale beskæftigelsesplan på det næste Euro pæiske Råd i Cardiff, og som har annonceret en klausul om udelukkelse fra Rådets direktiver?
I do not consider that any precedent is being set and as for other examples, I do not have the knowledge of who has been appointed in the past.
Hr. formand, jeg beder om beskyttelse, for jeg bliver af brudt.
If he wishes a reply to that he can, no doubt, raise that at a later date when I have had notice of the question.
14.1.98 rende bosat et sted, hvor han tilbringer mindst 185 dage pr. år. Imidlertid har Enbuske sin bopæl i Sverige og er indehaver af et svensk pas og skattepligtig i dette land.
How does the Council envisage the development of the peace process in Bosnia in view of the expiry of SFOR's mandate in June 1998?
Der er således tale om en åbenlys overtrædelse af bevægelsesfriheden.
In particular many of the military provisions of Dayton have been carried out.
De har haft Deres minut, og De har talt.
So what is happening among those elected?
Nu beder jeg Dem respektere indlæggene fra de øvrige parlamentsmedlem mer, således som det er sædvane, også over for Dem.
Are some considered 'dirty' and are not, therefore, put forward by the government, while others are 'clean', in other words party members, and those are the ones put forward?
Det modsatte tiltrækker min opmærksomhed, for jeg er vant til Deres parlamentariske høflighed.
Here we have a political fraud of the first or der, and you must intervene.
Hvilke foranstaltninger agter Rådet at træffe for at løse denne situation og forhindre, at den opstår igen?
The focus for the coming year will increasingly be on civilian implementation but it is clear that this will continue to require maintenance of a secure and stable environment.
Henderson, formand for Rådet. - (EN) Det spørgsmål, der er rejst af det ærede medlem, er uden tvivl af stor be tydning ikke blot for den person, der nævnes i hendes spørgsmål, men også for så vidt som det muligvis kan få en direkte indvirkning på andre af Unionens borgere, der befinder sig i en lignende situation.
The Peace Implementation Council, in which the European Union and Member States actively participate, considered at the Bonn Conference on 9/10 December a continuing military presence indispensable for this task and welcomed NATO's plans to consider options for a multinational follow-on force to SFOR beyond June 1998.
Hr. Aznars regering diskuterer tværtimod i dag med de vigtigste fagforbund den handlingsplan, som vil blive fremlagt for det næste Europa-Råd i Cardiff.
The European Union has made clear its support for the High Representative in implementing the conclusions of the Bonn Peace Implementation Council.
Hr. Henderson, De kan se, at vi som i Underhuset også her har livlige diskussioner.
The responsibility is that nominees be from regional and local bodies and it is not our responsibility to assess political affiliations.
Men det, der er under debat her - og det ærede medlem har hentydet til det i sit spørgsmål - er, hvorvidt en be stemt medlemsstat anvender de relevante bestemmelser i fællesskabsretten korrekt.
Titley (PSE). - I wish to begin by extending a warm welcome to Mr Henderson as the acting President-in-Office to the delights of European Parliament Question Time.
Henderson. - (EN) Hr. formand, jeg var ved at sige til Dem, at jeg troede, at jeg var tilbage i Underhuset i London. don.
Firstly, is there any indication yet as to whether the Americans will retain forces in Bosnia and, if so, will they actually be in Bosnia or over the horizon in Hungary?
Ifølge artikel 155, første punkt, i EF-traktaten: »skal Kommissionen drage omsorg for gennemførelsen af de i denne traktat indeholdte betemmelser og af de bestemmelser, som med hjemmel i denne træffes af institutionerne.« I den hensigt fastslår artikel 169 i traktaten, at Kommissionen kan indbringe en medlemsstat for Dom stolen for overtrædelse af de forpligtelser, der påhviler den i henhold til traktaten.
Secondly, is it not the time for European rhetoric on a European defence identity to have some actuality and for us to start to take more responsibility ourselves for the Bosnian peace process in the long term? Thirdly, does he accept that unless we can get the civilian aspects of Dayton up and running, we will end up with another Cyprus where we have a per manent military presence in a divided country?
Artikel 177 i traktaten gælder også for enkeltpersoner som et retsmiddel, f.eks. kan man rejse et spørgsmål ved en retslig forhandling ved en national ret, der derefter kan anmode Domstolen om en foreløbig kendelse om den korrekte fortolkning af de relevante bestemmelser i fæl lesskabsretten.
Papakyriazis (PSE). - (EL) Mr President, Mr President-in-Office of the Council, I understand and sympathize with your dilemma in this debate. Somewhere, Mr Henderson, you said at another stage of today's debate that you felt as if you were in the Parliament of the Communities.
Jeg kan kun sige til de spanske medlemmer, at det er ret klart, at der ikke er nogen undtagelser fra den afgørelse, der blev vedtaget i Luxembourg.
I too could say something similar, in other words it is as if I were in the Greek Parliament.
Formanden. - Spørgsmål nr. 3 af Birgitta Ahlqvist (H0944/97):
I can see that in some of the questions local political differences creep into the debate.
Om: Fri bevægelighed mellem Sverige og Finland
I really cannot add to what I have already said in relation to the original question.
Ahlqvist (PSE). - (SV) Jeg vil gerne takke formanden i Ministerrådet for dette svar. Dette er jo ikke kun et anliggende for Sverige og Finland, men det er derimod, nøjagtig som formanden siger, et brud mod EU's princip om fri bevægelighed.
Henderson. - I warmly thank the honourable Member for his kind remarks and for his question.
Så vidt jeg forstår, så har EF-domstolen tidligere understreget dette i et lignende tilfælde mellem Danmark og Tyskland, den såkaldte Ryborg-sag.
Representations have been made by a number of Member States on this question and there will be meet ings in Washington between the presidency and the United States Government later this week.
Jeg er også glad for at høre, at der er veje at gå, det vil sige, at Kommissionen eller den enkelte kan gå til domstolen med dette.
I am sure this will be one of the items which will be given consideration. tion.
Den frie bevægelighed er et af Unionens grundlæg gende principper, som er fastslået ikke blot i Rom traktatens præambel, men også i samme traktats artikel 3, litra c), og som ofte er blevet bekræftet siden.
Watson (ELDR). - Not so much a point of order, Mr President. I wondered if the President-in-Office would comment on the fact that this is a problem not just in Greece but in a number of Member States and whether he will commit his own government to review the political balance of the UK representation on the Committee of the Regions?
Jeg vil gerne stille et afsluttende spørgsmål: Hvad vil De, hr. formand for Rådet, sige til disse EU-borgere?
President. - Question No 5 by Gary Titley (H-0950/97)
Imidlertid agter den finske regering til trods for sin accept af den gældende fællesskabsret at kræve told- og merværdiafgifter af en svensk statsborger, Peter Enbuske, for hans køretøj ud fra den påstand, at denne i kraft af sine hyppige besøg i Finland, hvor hans forlovede er bosat, har hjemsted i Finland og er indehaver af et importeret køretøj.
I would agree that it is important that more responsibility is taken and this is something which the presidency would hope to develop over the coming six months as an important priority in foreign policy. As to the long term, the honourable Member is absolutely right that it is very important that, in colloquial terms, we 'keep a grip' of the situation in political, diplomatic and military terms.
Der henvises til punkt 1.2 i pjecen om midlertidig brug af køretøjer i Finland, hvoraf det fremgår, at en borger betragtes som væ
It is vitally important that we continue to make progress, al beit sometimes slow progress, so that an end is in sight for those who are involved in the situation on the ground, in
Henderson des, at gøre deres holdninger kendte og give de nødvendige oplysninger, der kan være i modstrid med dem, andre har fremlagt.
Henderson place which would make sure that would be the case. Hopefully those reassurances can be given at an early stage and can be confirmed.
Det vil så være op til domstolene at træffe afgørelse.
Then, I would hope, it would be possible to make the aid donation at an early stage.
og en weekend hos en veninde i medlemsstat B, medens han har bevaret sit arbejde og sin bopæl i medlemsstat A, ikke er tilstrækkeligt grundlag til at begrunde konklusionen, at han har flyttet sin normale bopæl til medlemsstat B«. "
Hopefully, that will produce results if not in the short term, then in the me dium term, and not deteriorate into one of these international situations which goes on for many years, rather than being resolved, and where it is very difficult to see progress.
Formanden. - Spørgsmål nr. 4 af Konstantinos Hatzidakis (H-0948/97):
President. - 0951/97)
Om: Grækenlands politiske repræsentation i Regionsudvalget udvalget
Subject: Human Rights in Cuba
Sjöstedt (GUE/NGL). - (SV) Jeg vil gerne takke Rådet for det svar, jeg har fået. Jeg forstår også, at det er Kom missionens opgave at overvåge, at disse regler følges. Samtidig er dette et meget alvorligt problem1.
In the light of its critical opinion of December 1997, how does the Council judge the political and in particular the human rights situation in Cuba, including the question of freedom of conscience and religion?
Artikel 198A i Traktaten om Den Europæiske Union bestemmer, at der skal oprettes et »Regionsudvalg« bestående af repræsentanter for de regionale og lokale myndigheder.
Posselt (PPE). - (DE) Mr President, it goes without say ing that the duration of the SFOR Mandate is also closely linked with internal developments in Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Udvalgets medlemmer beskikkes af Rådet ved enstemmig vedtagelse efter indstilling fra de respektive medlemsstater.
I would like to make two points in this respect.
Den græske regering indstillede seks repræsentanter for de lokale myndigheder og seks repræsentanter for de regionale myndigheder for Rådet for den nye fire års periode. Medlemmerne af Regionsudvalget er ligesom i Europa-Parlamentet delt op i politiske grupper.
Henderson, President-in-Office of the Council. - At the second evaluation of its common position on Cuba in De cember 1997, the Council concluded that no substantive change in the political and economic situation in Cuba had occurred in the six months since the last evaluation.
Af de 12 græske medlemmer har den græske re gering dog foreslået 10 medlemmer fra regeringens egen politiske retning, nemlig venstrefløjen, og kun 2 (en borgmester og en regional leder) fra oppositionspartiet, der ifølge resultaterne af det sidste parlaments valg repræsenterer 38 % af det græske folk.
The Council reiterated that the objective of the European Union towards Cuba remains the encouragement of a process of peaceful transition towards democracy, respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms, sustainable economic recovery and improvement in the living stand ards of the Cuban people.
Ingen an den medlemsstat har benyttet en sådan taktik.
The second point refers to the question of war criminals, in particular Mr Karadzic, but also other.
Der er tale om selvbestaltet småpartikævl, der hæves op på europæisk plan, idet vores lands elementære politiske repræsentation i Regionsudvalget trues.
Here too, ad vances must be made for until these two points are re solved, it will not be possible to terminate the SFOR Man date either.
Henderson. - (EN) Jeg må vende tilbage til kernen i mit oprindelige svar, som er, at dette ikke rigtig er nogen sag for Rådet.
Henderson. - The questioner raises the very important point that a key element in the Dayton process is that there should be returns of refugees.
Hvis der er nogen tvivl om intentionen med fællesskabsretten, vil det måske være klogt at rejse spørgsmålet over for Kommissionen.
Any influence the presidency can exert will be directed at trying to encourage those involved to follow that route.
Hvilke foranstaltninger agter Rådet at træffe frem til den 22. januar 1998 for at undgå fordrejning af den græske politiske repræsentation i den europæiske in stitution for de regionale og lokale myndigheder?
Truscott (PSE). - Following on from Mr Titley's question to the President-in-Office, I welcome Mr Henderson's confirmation that the issue of US involvement in Bosnia-Herzegovina will be on the agenda of the EU-US ministerial meeting in Washington.
Thors (ELDR). - (SV) Dette skal ikke blive til en lands kamp, men et kombineret forsøg på at arbejde frem imod de samme mål som vennerne på den anden side af bugten.
Freedom of conscience and religion are not expressly guaranteed to citizens under the Cuban constitution and, therefore, their application by the Cuban authorities is a question of practice on a case-by-case basis.
Henderson, formand for Rådet. - (EN) Medlemmerne af Regionsudvalget beskikkes af Rådet ved enstemmig ved tagelse.
Cuba has not applied for membership of the African, Caribbean and Pacific Group.
Beskikkelse af medlemmer for den næste fire årige periode vil blive behandlet af Rådet i den nærmeste fremtid.
The Council has not discussed the possibility of Cuba acceding to the Lomé Convention.
Udpegelse af medlemmer er op til de enkelte medlemsstater.
Membership of the ACP is primarily a matter for the ACP themselves.
Det eneste kriterium, som de udpegede skal opfylde, er, at de skal være repræsentanter for regionale og lokale organer.
However, it is clear that, if Cuba were to be considered for membership, it would have to abide by well-established provisions of the Lomé Convention which include respect for human rights and the rule of law and democracy.
Jeg vil gerne fortælle, at jeg personligt har indgivet en klage til Kommissionen angående den finske bilbeskat-, ning.
Will the President-in-Office also indicate the priority he attaches to improving the delivery of EU aid to Bosnia-Herzegovina?
Hatzidakis (PPE). - (EL) Hr. formand, hr. minister, jeg er klar over traktatens ordlyd, og det nævnte jeg også i mit spørgsmål, nemlig at der ikke er nogen konkrete kriterier.
Posselt (PPE). - (DE) Mr President, many thanks for your very precise information. I would just like to address two supplementary aspects.
Men man må gå ud fra, at Den Europæiske Union er op bygget på et demokratisk og repræsentativt grundlag.
We had elections last Sunday in Cuba in which 601 out of 601 parliamentary candidates were elected and I wanted to ask the Council where the development towards democracy is to be found!
Derfor må det ikke undgå vores opmærksomhed, at Regionsudvalget er organiseret i politiske grupper på samme måde som her i Europa-Parlamentet.
The second question that I want to ask is this: Next week, I be lieve, the Pope will be in Cuba and we learn that the inter national press is to be denied access to Cuba, in other words that the major newspapers will not receive accreditation in Cuba for this event, and I wanted to draw this to the Council's attention.
Hvad sker der nu i det konkrete tilfælde?
The question of aid is an important issue.
I den nye sam mensætning har det socialistiske parti med 41 procent af vælgerne syv repræsentanter, mens vi kun har to. Dette
It is a matter of getting clarification as quickly as possible from those on the ground of what would happen to that aid - that it was going to be used for the purposes for which it was intended and that there were structures in
Henderson. - (EN) Jeg vil gerne sige til fru Thors, at den frie bevægelighed ikke berøres af bilbeskatningens ni veau. Fastsættelsen af beskatningsniveauer falder uden for Fællesskabets bemyndigelse.
Henderson. - I believe that honourable Members of Par liament can make judgements that they think are appropriate on Cuba, in the same way as I can, as an individual.
Derfor kan jeg kun gen tage, at det, hvis den pågældende situation anses for at være uden for fællesskabsretten, er op til de berørte at gøre indsigelse imod den ad de rette kanaler.
As President-in-Office, I do not see that I have access to any special information that would allow me to make a different assessment.
Til sidst vil jeg, hr. formand, gerne spørge ministeren, om han ikke mener, at der skabes en præcedens med denne fremgangsmåde og at enhver stat nu kan gøre, hvad den har lyst til?
Henderson current situation - and, clearly, there is evidence of that.
Har De måske kendskab til, at noget lignende, som det jeg protesterer imod, er sket andre steder?
The responsibility for that has to lie primarily with the Cuban Government.
Jeg mener overhovedet ikke, at der er nogen sag her, sådan som vores kollega Hatzidakis forsøger at frem stille det, og det er ikke et spørgsmål, der burde have væ ret bragt op her.
That is not to deny that there are other influences but the responsibility for a situation in ternally is something which must be accepted by the government. ernment.
Jeg kan se, at der i nogle af spørgsmålene sniger sig lokalpolitiske uoverensstemmelser ind i debatten.
One thing that is worth mentioning is that in any definition of democracy, clearly elections play a very important part.
Jeg har rent faktisk ikke noget at tilføje til det, jeg allerede har sagt i relation til det oprindelige spørgsmål.
They are an important condition of a democracy, but they are not a sufficient condition.
Henderson. - (EN) Hr. Hatzidakis, jeg må faktisk hen vise til mit oprindelige svar på dette spørgsmål.
There are other conditions that have to be met in a democracy: press freedom, human rights and other issues.
Rådet har ingen ret til at sætte spørgs målstegn ved de udpegedes politiske tilhørsforhold.
I was not aware of the par ticular circumstances that have been drawn to my atten tion in relation to press coverage of the proposed visit.
Jeg finder ikke, at der her er skabt nogen præcedens, og hvad andre eksempler angår, så kender jeg ikke til, hvem der er blevet beskikket tidligere.
I can only say that I will examine what happens in reality as distinct from what is now being suggested might happen, and reflect on such reports as I receive on that matter.
Jeg vil tro, at spørgeren har lige så god adgang til sådanne oplysninger, som jeg har. Hvis han ønsker et svar herpå, kan han uden tvivl rejse det se nere, når jeg er blevet informeret om spørgsmålet.
Those reflections will assist the presidency in drawing conclusions on the current situation in Cuba and on how we should respond to the various events there.
Watson (ELDR). - (EN) For en kort bemærkning, hr. formand, kunne jeg godt lide at vide, om formanden for Rådet vil kommentere den kendsgerning, at dette ikke kun er et problem i Grækenland men i en række medlems stater, og om han vil forpligte sin regering til at se på den politiske balance i den britiske repræsentation i Regionsudvalget? udvalget?
As I said in my answer to Mrs Hardstaff, I believe that the boycott was not the right way forward, that it is better to persuade, and that if the Cuban Government was more re ceptive to some of the persuasion, then it may be that it would benefit from greater trade links, perhaps from further help, and that in itself could be a major contributory factor in helping the poorest people in that country, par ticularly the children.
Spørgsmål nr. 5 af Gary Titley (H-
Question No 7 by Glenys Kinnock (H-
Om: SFOR-mandatets udløb og fredsprocessen i Bosnien nien
Subject: South Africa-EU trade negotiations
Især er mange af de militære be stemmelser i aftalen blevet gennemført.
Does he anticipate that the difficulties related to agricultural products, wines and spirits and fisheries can be overcome?
Ephremidis (GUE/NGL). - (EL) Hr. formand, jeg hørte rådsformandens svar.
By forcing economic dependency on that country it was actually counterproductive in terms of de mocracy.
Jeg hører ikke til dem, der ønsker indblanding i mit lands indre anliggender, og især ikke, når der er tale om engelske repræsentanter, for vi har et meget bittert og ubehageligt minde om deres indsats.
There are countries benefiting from trading ar rangements from the Lomé convention with governments which are actually quite a long way from the kind of par liamentary democracy that we understand in Europe.
Men problemet er et andet.
Nevertheless, they are given trade preferences.
Derfor kræves det, at med lemmerne skal være valgte.
Henderson. - Can I thank the honourable Member for the supplementary question.
Hvad sker der så blandt de valgte, hvor nogen er snavsede og ikke foreslås udnævnt af regeringen, og andre er rene, altså medlemmer af regeringspartiet, og indstilles til udnævnelse?
It is true, of course, that there was an American boycott and Members will draw their own conclusions as to the effect ofthat over a long period.
Ja, så skades dette fællesskabsorgans repræsentativitet, og De er jo for pligtet til at gribe ind, når De konstaterer de mindste pro blemer, hvorfor De jo er nødt til at forfølge de mindste producenter og kalde dem bedragere.
I think that it is worthwhile drawing attention to the fact that the European Union never endorsed such a boycott, preferring discussion and persuasion as a means of trying to seek change within Europe.
Henderson. - (EN) Hr. formand, jeg har faktisk ikke mere at tilføje til mine to tidligere svar, som jeg håber klargør stillingen.
Henderson, President-in-Office of the Council. - The presidency would like to express its satisfaction with the breakthrough in the negotiations with South Africa that took place late in 1997, when South Africa presented its detailed trade offer to the European Union.
De beskikkede kommer fra regionale og lokale myndigheder, og det er ikke vores ansvar at vurdere politiske tilhørsforhold.
The Community is now preparing an equally detailed trade offer to present to South Africa as soon as possible.
Papakyriazis (PSE). - (EL) Hr. formand, hr. formand for Rådet, jeg forstår og deler deres manglende handle evne i dette spørgsmål.
Smith (PSE). - Can I thank Mr Morris for allowing me this minute.
De sagde på et tidspunkt, hr. Hen derson, på et andet tidspunkt af debatten her, at De følte det, som om De var i det britiske Underhus.
I wonder if the President-in-Office would agree with me that the human rights of Cuban children were affected by the very same economic embargo which Mrs Hardstaff referred to?
Noget tilsvarende kunne jeg også sige, for jeg har det, som om jeg er i det græske parlament.
Children have been denied food and medicine because of the United States embargo.
