Kommissionen bestræber sig i øvrigt på at forbedre sine procedurer med henblik på at gøre indsatsen mere konsekvent og effektiv.
We have problems with the Commission but our principal problems getting assistance to citizens derive from toe Member States and toat is one of the reasons for the delays.
Når en borger indgiver et andragende til Europa-Parlamentet, klager han over en forkert anvendelse af fællesskabs lovgivningen, men giver samtidig udtryk for sin tillid til, at Europa-Parlamentet i samarbejde med de øvrige institutioner kan rette op på den uretfærdighed, som han mener at være udsat for.
When addressing a petition to toe European Parliament, a citizen of the Union complains of the faulty application of Community legislation but by so doing, he also expresses his confidence toat the European Parliament, together with the other institutions, will redress the injustice he believes he has suffered.
At behandle andragenderne grundigt og gøre alt for at imødekomme borgernes klager så hurtigt som muligt, det er det vigtigste, hvis vi ikke vil skuffe borgemes forventninger, og hvis vi ønsker, at borgemes rettigheder i Europa skal give mening i deres øjne.
Dealing with petitions thoroughly. and doing everything possible to satisfy citizens' complaints without delay: this is what is essential if we do not want the confidence of our citizens to be disappointed and if we wish the exercise of citizens' rights in Europe to have meaning in their eyes.
Med hensyn til de langvarige procedurer, som flere af de ærede medlemmer har været inde på, kan jeg kun på Kommissionens vegne gentage, at den som traktaternes vogter gør alt for at sikre respekten for anvendelsen af fællesskabslovgivningen udelukkende under overholdelse af kriterierne om objektivitet og ret.
As for the length of these procedures, mentioned several times by Members of ParUament, I can only repeat on behalf of the Commission that, as guardian of the Treaties, it does everything it can to ensure respect for toe application of Community law, solely in accordance with the criteria of objectivity and of law.
Forsinkelserne med hensyn til overtrædelsesprocedurerne afspejler på en gang de komplekse sager, der skal' behandles, den grundige undersøgelse, som Kommissionen er nødt til at foretage af medlemsstatemes argumenter og det konstante ønske om at sikre en korrekt anvendelse af fællesskabslovgivningen uden nødvendigvis at skulle gå til EF-Domstolen.
The time taken by infringement procedures reflects both the'complexity of the matters dealt with, toe thoroughness of the examination toe Commission is required to carry out of the arguments put forward by the Member States and the constant care to achieve, if possible, the correct application of Community legislation without necessarily going before the Court of Justice.
Parlamentet modtager detaljerede oplysninger om Kommissionens indsats på dette område gennem den årlige beretning om anvendelsen af fællesskabsretten, som det i øvrigt hvert år udarbejder en meget interessant og yderst lærerig be tænkning om.
Parliament receives detailed information on the actions of the Commission in this area through the Com mission's annual report on the application of Community law. It also draws up a very interesting and very instructive report every year on the subject of Community law.
På et tidspunkt, hvor man inden for rammerne af regerings konferencen har indledt drøftelserne om midlerne til at sikre en yderligere tilnærmelse mellem borgerne og Unionens institutioner, bør man bevare og tilskynde til en sådan direkte kontakt mellem borgerne og Parlamentet.
At a time when a debate is taking place in toe context of the Intergovernmental Conference on ways of bringing toe citizens of the European institutions closer to each other, such a direct relationship between the citizen and P a rUa ment must be preserved and encouraged.
Hr. Gutiérrez Díaz' glimrende betænkning gør det muligt endnu en gang at konstatere, at borgerne sender store mængder af andragender til Parlamentet, og jeg vil geme tilslutte mig de mange lykønskninger, som ordføreren har modtaget for sit arbejde.
The excellent report by Mr Gutiérrez Díaz shows once again that citizens address a very large number of petitions to ParUament and I associate myself here with the many congratulations offered to the rapporteur and to his work.
Disse andragender vedrører områder, der er så følsomme for vore borgere som socialsikring, miljø, skatteforhold, fri bevægelighed for personer, anerkendelse af eksamensbeviser for kun at nævne nogle få af de vigtigste, nogle få, ja, men de vedrører i højeste grad borgerne.
These petitions are concerned with such sensitive areas for -our citizens as social security, the environment, taxation, freedom of movement for persons, recognition of diplomas and degrees, to quote only a few of the principal ones, but a few that undoubtedly concern the citizen most deeply.
Med hensyn til spørgsmålet om information til Udvalget om Andragender vil jeg gerne understrege, at Kommissionen altid har givet dette udvalg fyldestgørende og detaljerede oplysninger.
As regards briefing of toe Committee on Petitions, I should like to emphasize that the Commission has always given it complete and detaUed information.
Kommissionen beretter navnlig om kontakter med de nationale myndigheder.
In particular, it reports contacts made with national authorities.
Det betyder imidlertid ikke, at Kommissionen har ret til at videregive fortrolige dokumenter fra medlemsstaterne, navnlig i forbindelse med udenretlige procedurer vedrørende anvendelsen af fællesskabslovgivningen.
However, toat does not mean that the Commission has the right to transmit confidential documents emanating from Member States, particularly, in the context of preliminary legal procedures relating to the application of Community law.
Jeg kan forsikre Dem for, at Udvalget om Andragender fortsat vil modtage alle oplys ninger, der er nødvendige for en effektiv behandling af borgernes andragender.
I can assure you that toe Committee on Petitions will continue to receive from the European Commission all the information necessary for the effective treatment of citizens' petitions.
At garantere den fuldstændige overholdelse af fællesskabs lovgivningen og styrke denne lovgivning for at sætte den i borgernes tjeneste, det er opgaver, som Kommissionen finder væsentiige.
To guarantee full respect for Community legislation in these areas and to strengthen this legislation for the benefit of the citizen: these are tasks that toe Commission considers to be essential.
Kommissionen glæder sig over, at hr. Gutiérrez Díaz i sin betænkning konstaterer, at der er sket fremskridt i samarbejdet mellem Udvalget om Andragender og Europa-Kommissionen.
The Commission is pleased that Mr Gutiérrez Diaz's report instances progress in cooperation between the Committee on Petitions and the European Commission.
At retten til at indgive andragender er blevet indskrevet i traktaten har for Kommissionen været en yderligere tilskyndelse til så hurtigt og på en så relevant måde som muligt at reagere på Europa-Parlamentets an modninger vedrørende andragender.
The inclusion of the right to petition in the Treaty was, for the European Commission, an additional encouragement to reply as quickly and pertinently as possible to requests from the European Parliament relating to petitions.
Pex (PPE). - (NL) Hr. formand, der er noget forkert i dette mødes procedure, og derfor har jeg bedt om ordet.
Pex (PPE). - (NL) Mr President, there is something missing from the conduct of this sitting and it is for that reason that I asked to speak.
Der er blevet behandlet en udmærket betænkning, og De har hørt en udmærket beretning af ordføreren og også af formanden for Udvalget for Andragender.
We have looked at an excellent report, and you have heard an excellent account from the rapporteur and from toe chairman of the Committee on Petitions too.
De har også hørt et udmærket indlæg af kommissæren.
You have also heard an excellent account from the Commissioner.
Men den, som ikke taler her, er den, som er ansvarlig for en stor forsinkelse i Udvalget for Andragenders arbejde, og det er formanden for Parlamentets Præsidium, som også er ansvarlig for Generalsekretariatet.
But the person we have not heard from is toe one responsible for the great hold-ups in the work of toe Committee on Petitions, namely toe President of the Bureau of Parliament who is also responsible for the Secretariat-General.
Alle spørgsmål om en forbedring af situationen er indtil nu enten ikke besvaret eller besvaret dårligt. Jeg
All the questions asked so far about improvements to the situation have either not been an swered or have not been answered properly.
Europa-Parlamentets forhandlinger
I would have appreciated it if the Bureau of Parliament had replied at this sitting to all the substantive arguments put forward here concerning the organization of Parliament itself, organization of the secretariat, the registering of petitions.
Der er meget, som ikke duer her i Parlamentet, og der er ingen mening i at mødes igen til næste år og så igen drøfte en udmærket betænkning og derefter at måtte konstatere, at der igen intet er ændret.
There is not much that is right about this House and there is no point meeting again next year, debating another excellent report and then concluding that once again nothing has changed.
Det ville jeg geme sige, hr. formand, og jeg håber, at De vil meddele det til Præsidiet.
That is what I wanted to say, Mr President, and I hope you will pass it on to the Bureau.
Aftalen følger umiddelbart efter den nylig indgåede middelhavsàftale med Israel, hvor det økonomiske og kulturelle samarbejde blev fastlagt og en regelmæssig politisk dialog institutionaliseret.
Among the criticisms habitually directed at the Commission are the length of the infringement procedures and, I would say, what is considered to be toe over-cautious approach of the European Commission in this area.
Med de to aftaler vil Den Euro pæiske Union også yde et bidrag til udviklingen af middelhavsregionen og stabilisere fredsprocessen i MeUem-østen.
I· should point out, however, that in this area toe European Commission has a discretionary power as regards infringe ments and that it does its best to act consistently in the exercise of its discretionary powers.
Vort politiske budskab lyder: Vi satser på en uddybning af forbindelserne og på kontinuitet i de politiske aktiviteter ved hjælp af bindende aftaler og kontrakter. Og det forventer vi også af vore partnere i enhver henseende.
The Commission is also endeavouring to improve its procedures in order to make its actions consistent and effective.
Formanden. - Næste punkt på dagsordenen er betænk ning (A4-0250/96) af Stockmann for Udvalget om Forskning, Teknologisk Udvikling og Energi om forslag til Rådets afgørelse om indgåelse af en aftale om videnskabeligt og teknisk samarbejde mellem Det Europæiske Fællesskab og Staten Israel (KOM(96)0205 - C4-0311/96-96/0134(CNS)).
President. - The next item is the report (A4-0250/96) by Mr Stockmann, on behalf of toe Cqmmittee on Research, Technological Development and Energy, on the proposal for a Council Decision concluding the Agreement for scientific and technical cooperation between the European Community and the State of Israel (COM(96)0205 -C4-0311/96-96/0134(CNS)).
Stockmann (PSE), ordfører. - (DE) Hr. formand, kære kolleger, Europa-Parlamentets udtalelse ønskes. Den ønskes om Rådets afgørelse om indgåelse af en aftale om videnskabeligt og teknisk samarbejde mellem Det Euro pæiske Fællesskab og Staten Israel.
Stockmann (PSE), rapporteur. - (DE) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, tois House has been asked for its opinion on the proposal for a Council Decision concluding an Agreement for scientific and technical cooperation between the European Community and the State of Israel.
Udvalget om Forskning, Teknologisk Udvikling og Energi gav tirsdag med stort flertal sit samtykke, og jeg forventer - eller bedre, jeg henstiller - at aftalen godkendes på plenarmødet i morgen.
The Committee on Research, Technological Development and Energy on Tuesday approved toe Agreement by a large majority, and I expect - or at least I recommend - that Parliament will approve it tomorrow in plenary sitting.
Jeg vil geme tilføje et par bemærkninger til Kommissionen.
I should like to add a few comments addressed to the Commission.
For det første: ved kommende forhandlinger bør Kommissionen overholde de eksisterende aftaler i Luns-Westerterp-proceduren og til stadighed holde os underrettet om forhandüngernes forløb - det har ikke været tilfældet denne gang.
Firstly, in future negotiations, the Commission should adhere to the existing arrangements under the Luns-Westerterp procedure and keep us continuously in formed on the status of the negotiations - that did not happen in this case.
For det andet: Israel bør inddrages i evalueringen af det fjerde forskningsrammeprogram og i drøftelsen om udformningen af det femte rammeprogram.
Secondly, Israel should be involved in the assessment of the Fourth Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development and in the discussion on the direction of the Fifth Framework Programme.
For det tredje: Forskningsudvalget ønsker regelmæssig kontakt med medlemmerne af det udvalg i Knesset, der beskæftiger sig med forskningspolitik.
Thirdly, the Committee on Research, Technological Development and Energy wishes to have regular contacts with the members of the Knesset's Economic Affairs Committee, whose remit covers research policy.
For det fjerde: for at fremme fredsprocessen og forsoningen i Israel bør israelske og palæstinensiske forskningsforetagender især opfordres til at afgive bud.
Fourthly, in order to promote peace and reconciliation in Israel, Israeli and Palestinian research establishments should be especially encouraged to respond jointly to invitations to tender.
For det femte: jeg håber på en bred informationskampagne om de nye muligheder for samarbejde i vore lande.
Fifthly, I hope to see a broad information campaign on the new possibilities for cooperation in our countries.
Det har taget lang tid at forhandle aftalen på plads, nu håber vi, at den gennemføres så hurtigt som muligt.
The negotiation of measures to be covered by the Agreement took a long time; we now hope that it will be made operational in practice as quickly as possible.
Aftalen løfter det mangeårige succesrige samarbejde mel lem israelske videnskabsmænd og forskningsinstitutter og tilsvarende i Det Europæiske Fællesskab op på et nyt niveau.
The Agreement raises the long-standing and successful cooperation between Israeli scientists and research establishments and those of the European Community to a new level.
Israel kan deltage i programmerne i det fjerde forskningsrammeprogram, undtagen programmer vedrørende nuklear sikkerhed og fusion.
Israel can participate in programmes óf the Fourth Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development, except in the fields of nuclear safety and nuclear fusion.
Videnskabsmænd og institutter i Den Europæiske Union får adgang til at deltage i israelske forskningsaktiviteter.
Scientists and research establishments in the European Union are free to participate in Israeli research activities.
Caudron (PSE). - (FR) Hr. formand, kære kolleger, i vor kollega Stockmanns fremragende betænkning om viden skabeligt og teknisk samarbejde mellem Den Europæiske Union og Israel forklarer han tydeligt, hvad der ligger i denne aftale, og hvorfor man bør stemme for uden forbehold og tøven.
Caudron (PSE). - (FR) Mr President, ladies and gentle men, the excellent report by our colleague Mr Stockman on scientific and technical cooperation between the European Union and Israel explains clearly what this agreement is and why it is therefore necessary to vote for it without reservations and without uncertainties.
Det er en god aftale, som falder inden for rammerne af den lange forhandlingstradition mellem Unionen og Israel, og som vil have positive virkninger både for israelerne og for europæerne, fordi alle vil nyde godt af den gensidige og kollektive indsats.
This is a good agreement which has been reached through lengthy negotiations between the Union and Israel and which will be advantageous both for Israelis and for Europeans, since everybody will benefit from their separate and joint efforts.
Det er en vigtig partner skabsaftale, som samfinanseres af Europa og Israel inden for det fjerde Kl Urammeprogram.
It is an important partnership agreement, cofinanced by Europe and Israel as part of the fourth research framework programme.
Det er i øvrigt første gang, at et ikke-europæisk land kan deltage i Fællesskabets forskning.
This is also the first time that a non-Européan country will be able to take part in Community research.
TU gengæld får Europa adgang til de israelske forskningsresultater og - programmer.
In return, Europe will have access to Israel's research and research programme.
Israels finansielle bidrag svarer tU beløbene fra Den Euro pæiske Unions medlemsstater afhængig af hver enkelts bruttonationalprodukt.
In the Community and worldwide, we are witnessing the increasing internationalization, indeed globalization, of the research process.
Vi oplever i Fællesskabet og over hele verden en stigende internationalisering, ja globalisering af udviklingen inden for forskningen. Denne udvikling er en logisk konsekvens af selve forskningens uddifferentiering og øgede specialisering samt af dens voksende behov for finansiering.
This development's within the logic of the differentiation and increasing specialization of research itself and its growing financing needs.
Samtidig må vi imidlertid desværre konstatere en dalende vilje til national fremme af videnskaben. Derfor er vi i dag
For that reason, we must, today more than ever, seek synergy effects through improved international research cooperation. tion.
Som formand for Israel-delegationen glæder jeg mig over at kunne støtte aftalen.
As chairman of the Delegation for relations with Israel, I am happy with this and I approve of it.
Som fransk socialist stemmer jeg for uden tøven.
As a French socialist, I shall unhesitatingly vote for it.
Som repræsentant for de europæiske socialdemokratiske partier bidrager jeg med min gruppes støtte.
As a representative of the Party of European Socialists, I bring the support of my group.
Bør man så se bort fra de spørgsmål, som en række kolleger rejste vedrørende fredsprocessen efter det seneste valg i Israel?
Should we, for all that, ignore the questions of some of our colleagues about the peace process after toe recent IsraeU elections?
Bestemt ikke!
Certainly not!
Deres bekymring, vores bekymring er helt begrundet, når man læser den nye
Their concern, and ours, is justified when we read the programme of the new Prime Minister, when we look at the composition of his government and when we hear some of the statements being made.
Europa-Parlamentets forhandlinger
Israel has outstanding competence in a number of research areas.
Caudron hhv. Knesset og EU, bør samarbejdet følges op, idet der regelmæssig optages arbejdskontakter.
I expect new developments to be generated by increased cooperation in the fields such as information technology, for example data compression and image processing, and in medical research, for example immunology, epidemiology and cardiovascular diseases, to men tion only a few.
premierministers program, når man ser sammensætningen af hans regering, og når man lytter til visse erklæringer, der er blevet fremsat.
I also expect new impetus in the field of biotechnology, for example in neurobiology and biological water treatment, and in toe development of technology for systems to harness renewable energies.
Der er bestemmelser om beskyttelse af den intellektueUe ejendomsret med i aftalen. Om de altid vil være tilfreds stillende for begge parter, vil skulle vise sig i praksis.
The research cooperation Agreement follows the Mediterranean Agreement recently concluded with Israel, which regulated economic and cultural cooperation and placed regular political dialogue on an institutional footing.
Da vi stadig løbende forfiner også vor egen lovgivning på dette område - jeg henviser blot til det omdiskuterede direktiv om genetisk modificerede organismer - kan det blive nødvendigt at genforhandle dette punkt, nemlig beskyttelse af den intellektuelle ejendomsret, i forbindelse med den næste aftale.
Through both Agreements, toe European Union seeks to contribute to the development of the Mediterranean region and to stabilize the peace process in the Middle East.
Europa kan naturligvis ikke gøre sig til dommer over resultaterne af et demokratisk valg i et demokratisk land.
Having said that, it is clearly not for Europe to judge the results of a democratic election in a democratic country.
Der er heller intet, der i dag giver grand til at foregribe resultaterne af de drøftelser mellem den nye regering og dens naboer, der kun lige er kommet i gang.
Nor does anything today entitle anybody to prejudge the results of discussions which are only beginning between the new government and its neighbours.
Og endelig det vigtigste, den bedste måde at fremme fredsprocessen på, er det ikke netop at styrke den europæiske tilstedeværelse i Mellemøsten, partnerskabet med israelerne, med palæstinenserne og med deres arabiske naboer?
Lastly, and most importantly, is not toe best way of helping the peace process to increase the European presence in the Middle East, its partnership with the Israelis, with the Palestinians and with their Arab neighbours?
Aftalen om videnskabeligt samarbejde passer fint ind i denne frem gangsmåde.
Our scientific cooperation agreement fits perfectly into this process.
Den bør således gennemføres hurtigst muUgt og i fuldt omfang, og Europa-Parlamentet og Knesset bør inddrages i opfølgningen af aftalen gennem Israel-delegationen. tionen.
We must there fore implement it quickly, give it full scope, and form a partnership between the European Parliament and the Knesset through Parliament's Delegation for relations with Israel in order to monitor it.
Task force »vand« vil bestemt være af stor interesse for Israel.
We must look for ways of encouraging the Palestinians to participate in these efforts and their results. Peace has
En rigtig planlægning og styring af vandforsyningen bidrager i middelhavsregionen, særlig i Mellemøsten, også til fred mellem staterne.
Our political message is: we seek to deepen relations and to promote continuity in political action by means of binding agreements and treaties.
Man bør finde veje til at inddrage palæstinenserne i disse bestræbelser og resultaterne af dem.
Caudron tion, and hence contribute to the weUbeing and peace of peoples throughout the region.
Freden kan naturligvis proklameres, men det vigtigste er jo at freden kan leve.
undoubtedly been declared but, above all, peace is alive!
Og for at freden kan leve, må der udvikles partnerskaber meUem os alle.
And for the survival of peace, all possible partnerships must be developed between us.
Er aftalen om forskning med henblik på at skabe bedre levevilkår ikke særlig symbolsk i dag?
Is not the agreement on the search for better living conditions today particularly symbolic?
Det mener jeg, og jeg mener især, at vi bør gøre alt for, at det lykkes: jeg gentager således mine lykønskninger til hr. Stockman, og jeg opfordrer alle kollegerne til i morgen at stemme for aftalen af 25. marts.
I think it is, and above all I think we must do everything we can to support it: I repeat my congratulations to Mr Stockman and I urge all my colleagues to approve the agreement of 25 March tomorrow.
