Hvis man ser bort fra brugen af et kringlet sprog, den manglende evne til at finde politiske løsninger på problemer samt dårlige kompromiser, som gør lovgivningen alt for åben for fortolkning, kan SLIM granskes kritisk ud fra følgende synsvinkler:
If you disregard the use of complicated language, the in ability to find political solutions to problems, and bad compromises which leave legislation far too open to in terpretation, SLIM can be critically examined from the following angles.
Forenkling som sådan må ikke være et mål i sig selv, hvis det indebærer, at retssikkerheden sættes over styr, og komplicerede spørgsmål banaliseres.
Firstly, simplification as such should not be an end in it self if it leads to legal certainty being jeopardized and complicated questions being oversimplified.
Bardong (PPE), ordfører. - (DE) Hr. formand, kære kolleger, som De ved, finansieres Den Europæiske Union hverken af kreditter eller europæiske skatter, men af de såkaldte egne indtægter, først og fremmest told og afgifter, momsandele og BNPandele.
Bardong (PPE), rapporteur. - (DE) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, as you know the financing of the Euro pean Union is carried out neither through credits nor by means of European taxes, but through the socalled own resources, primarily duties and adjustment levies, proportions of VAT and GDPs.
Det Europæiske Fælles skab fastlægger Den Fælles Toldtarif, men tolden opkræves dog af medlemsstaterne og deres forvaltninger.
The European Community sets the Common Duty Tariff, but the raising of the duties is carried out by the Member States, that is their civil servants.
Medlemsstaterne skal på baggrund af deres rets- og forvaltningsforskrifter sikre, at disse indtægter fastlægges, bogføres, inddrives og overdrages.
The Member States must, on the basis of their legal and administrative regulations, take the required meas ures to guarantee the establishment, bookkeeping, inclusion and allocation of these own resources.
Til gengæld får med lemsstaterne et nedslag på 10 % i den toldskyld, der egentlig tilfalder Den Europæiske Unions budget, for de res forvaltningsarbejde.
Of course, for doing this they get back 10 % ofthe duties, which really belong to the Community Budget, to cover their administrative work.
- mangel på kodificering, henvisning i uendelighed til andre direktiver, for ordninger, aftaler og forskellige slags regelsamlinger; når henvisningens indhold desuden ikke altid er særlig godt koordineret med det, der står i de tekster, der henvises til, fører dette, foruden at det er brugeruvenligt, også til anvendelses- og fortolkningsproblemer, ningsproblemer,
- endless references to other directives, regulations, treaties and rules of various kinds - apart from be ing user-unfriendly, if the contents ofthe reference are not always particularly well coordinated with what is found in the texts referred to, this also leads to problems of application and interpretation;
I lang tid er det også klart fremgået af de årlige beretninger fra Revisionsretten, at inddrivelsen af egne indtægter er forbundet med tydelige mangler.
For a long time now the annual reports ofthe General Accounts Office have made it clear that there are significant defects in the collection process.
Det Midlertidige Un dersøgelsesudvalg om Ordningen for Fællesskabsforsendelse har ligeledes opdaget betydelige tilfælde af overtræ delse og misbrug i forsendelsesproceduren, som endnu ikke er afhjulpet tilfredsstillende.
Also, the Investigating Committee on transit fraud uncovered considerable in fringements and abuses in the dispatch procedure, which have not yet been satisfactorily eliminated.
Som led i SEM 2000 ønsker Det Europæiske Råd ¡.Madrid at skærpe bestemmelserne om opkrævning af egne indtægter, og Kommissionen fremsætter nu et forslag til en forordning om æn dring af grundforordning 55/89 om ordningen for Fælles skabernes egne indtægter og vil dermed opfylde dette mål.
In the context of SEM 2000, the European Council of Madrid planned an intensification of the collection of the own resources, and the Commission is now presenting here a proposal for an order to amend Basic Order 55/89 relating to the sys tem ofthe EU's own resources with the intention of meet ing this goal.
Der er i den forbindelse først og fremmest tale om to æn dringer.
This does in fact mean two amendments.
Og alle vil sige: Hvad er der dog sket? Sker der overhovedet noget, og hvorfor taler de om det?
Did anything actually happen there, and why are they talking about it?'
Men det grundlæggende problem har hr. Bardong været inde på.
However, Mr Bardong has addressed the basic problem.
Det handler om Unionens egne indtægter, om omgangen med dem, om den korrekte opkrævning af dem og om overførslen af dem til Den Europæiske Union.
It is a question of the Union's own resources and the way we treat them, the correct way to collect them and pass them on to the European Union.
Selv når medlemsstaterne opkræver egne indtægter, er det jo vores penge og ikke deres penge.
Even if the Member States collect the own resources it is in fact our money and not theirs.
Det kan man ikke gøre opmærksom på tit nok, og baggrunden herfor har hr. Bar dong også nævnt.
We cannot stress that too much, and Mr Bardong has also given us the background to it.
For det andet: I medlemsstaterne sker annulleringerne af udestående beløb efter meget forskellige forskrifter.
Secondly, within the various Member States the cancellation of indebted sums is governed by widely differing regulations.
Hvorvidt medlemsstaterne er parate til at informere om sådanne annulleringer, svinger meget. Det konstaterede Revisionsretten i 1995.
The readiness of the Member States to issue communications about such cancellations is expressed in quite different ways.
Medlemsstaterne er jo ikke for pligtede til at overdrage Kommissionen beløb, der på grund af force majeure eller andre grunde, der ikke kan tilskrives dem, ikke kan inddrives.
Of course, the Member States do not need to declare to the Commission amounts of money which have become resistant to inspection because of greater force or for reasons for which they do not themselves have responsibility.
Men Kommissionen skal være i stand til at kunne bedømme medlemsstaternes indsats og i givet fald at kunne opkræve beløb.
But the Commission must be in a position to be able to assess the care taken by the Member States, and in certain circumstances be able to require the payment of sums of money.
Der har fundet en lille, men interessant debat sted i Udvalget i forbindelse med denne betænkning - det er kun den, jeg vil komme ind på.
There was a small but interesting debate on this report in the committee, and I would like to confine myself to this.
Debatten er egentlig ikke blevet ført mellem medlemmerne, men mellem medlemmerne og Kommissionen.
The debate has not really been conducted between the Member States, but between the Members and the Com mission.
Der var nemlig tale om, hvorvidt man skulle vælge en bestemt beløbsgrænse.
It was in fact about whether we should adopt a certain threshold value.
Kommissionen gik ud fra ECU 50 000, og vi gik ud fra 10 000, som hr. Bardong foreslog.
The Commission took ECU 50 000 as its starting point and we took ECU 10 000, as Mr Bardong suggested.
Argumentet lød, at man med en be løbsgrænse på 50 000 i princippet registrerer det samme, som når man er så smålig og vælger ECU 10 000 som be løbsgrænse.
The argument now was that with a threshold value of ECU 50 000, one covers in principle the same as if one is so small-minded that one takes ECU 10 000 as the threshold value.
Denne foreslåede ændringsforordning er netop ikke noget bidrag til den reform af det finan sielle system, som forventes fra alle sider, og som anses for nødvendig.
There is another aspect that really must be considered: this is all much too complicated.
Hvad angår opgaven med at reformere det finansielle system, dækker Kommissionen sig fortsat ind over hele linjen.
This is no longer a cost-benefit calculation, and it is important to recognize when it is time to stop in specting.
Nu kan man tale om, at forvaltning skal være effektiv, og at costbenefitregnskabet også bør spille en stor rolle i for bindelse med forvaltningen.
Now we can talk about it, administration is supposed to be efficient. Also, the cost-benefit calculation should play an important part in the administration.
Det støtter vi.
We support that.
Men dermed sender man også et signal.
But in doing so we send out signals.
Man siger: Nåja, hvad der lig ger under denne grænse, det er ikke værd at tale om.
We are saying that what ever is below this threshold is not worth bothering about.
Vi kontrollerer kun, når kontrollen betaler sig økonomisk.
We then check only if the inspection is financially worth while.
I nogle medlemsstater trækkes fronterne imidlertid op til den såkaldte nettoyderdiskussion.
Meanwhile, in some Member States the front lines are be ing drawn for the socalled net-payers' discussion.
Flere stater beklager sig over, at de indbetaler mere til Fællesskabernes budget, end de får ud.
Several states complain that they are paying more into the Community budget than they can get out of it.
Men Kommissionen gør heller ikke noget for at rette op på det forkerte indtryk i offentligheden af, at de enkelte medlemsstater ville kunne få nøjagtig lige så meget ud af det, som de indbetaler.
However, the Commission also does absolutely nothing to correct publicly the false impression that individual Member States could get out exactly as much as they pay in.
Mange af Fællesskabernes udgifter går netop til tredjelande eller kan ikke ind ordnes entydigt under en bestemt medlemsstat.
Many Community payments flow directly to third countries or cannot clearly be attributed to a specific Member State.
Derfor udarbejdes nettoyderregnskaberne ofte ud fra falske for udsætninger.
Therefore the netpayer calculations are often based on false assumptions.
Tolden burde overhovedet ikke inkluderes i nettoyderregnskaberne, den er nu engang ikke nogen ydelse fra det land, hvor den opkræves, højst en ydelse fra slutbrugerne, der så måske betaler priserne i et helt andet land.
The duties should not of course be in cluded in the netpayer calculations. They are not even something achieved by the country in which they are col lected - at most they are an achievement of the end-users who then pay the prices, in some circumstances, in a com pletely different country.
Vi overser i den forbindelse, at visse af vores regler ikke er indført, fordi de skal kunne betale sig, men fordi andre ting skal opnåes dermed.
In doing so, we overlook the fact that certain existing rules were not brought in so that they could be viable and pay for themselves, but because they helped us achieve other things.
Told er ikke kun til, for at der skal komme penge i kassen - så skulle vi have forhøjet den i det uendelige - told er også bestemte reguleringsmekanismer.
Duties are not there simply to put money in the kitty - in that case we would have to keep increasing them. Duties are also specific regulatory mechanisms.
Vi beskytter os, til dels beskytter vi vores industrier, vi beskytter vores standarder, og vi knytter betingelser til, når vi reducerer tolden. Det er politik.
We protect ourselves, to some extent we protect our indus tries, we protect our standards and we tie them to conditions if we reduce duties.
Det er ikke bogføring.
That is not bookkeeping.
For så vidt er det vigtigt, hvilke standarder vi fastsætter, når vi kontrollerer, at disse forskrifter, f.eks. vedrørende told, overholdes.
To that extent it is very important what standards we set when we check adherence to these regulations, as expressed, for example, in the duties.
Kommissionen bæ rer derfor selv en stor del af skylden for, at vi nu oplever, at diskussionen om Fællesskabernes finansielle system er gået skævt.
It is there fore to a considerable extent equally guilty of creating the current disarray in discussions on the financial order of the Community.
Det er på høje tid, at offentligheden informeres bedre om det.
It is high time the public was better in formed on this matter.
Det er netop ikke kun et spørgsmål om, hvorvidt det betaler sig, men også om, hvorvidt vi sender et signal: Vi tager det ikke så alvorligt.
It is not even just a question of whether the calculation works out, but a question of sending out a signal.
Det er for kompliceret for os at kontrollere det hele.
We do not take it by any means so seriously. It is too complicated for us.
Det er alt for dyrt.
It is much too expensive.
Hvis det blot er et be stemt beløb - glem det, vi tager det ikke så tungt.
If it is just a certain amount - forget it, we do not look too closely at it.
Det ko ster mere, end det indbringer.
That costs more than it brings in.
Selv ved ECU 10 000, ECU 50 000, hvad betyder det så?
Even then, ECU 10 000 or ECU 50 000 - what difference does it make?
Wemheuer (PSE). - (DE) Hr. formand, kære kolleger, hr. kommissær.
Wemheuer (PSE). - (DE) Mr President, ladies and gen tlemen, Commissioner, this report by Mr Bardong is an other example of a report with sue* an off-putting title that nobody will read it.
Denne betænkning af hr. Bardong er igen et eksempel på en betænkning, der har en så afskrækkende titel, at ingen vil læse den.
It is presented on a particularly attractive day at a particularly attractive time, and nobody will take any notice of it, especially since we are all in agreement.
Den præsenteres på en særlig attraktiv dag på et særlig attraktivt tidspunkt, og in gen vil tage notits af den, især da vi alle er enige og nu uden tvivl vil følge forslagene fra hr. Bardong på ethvert
We shall follow Mr Bardong's proposals in all respects without question, and everyone will say: 'What
Er alle myndigheder, også alle skattemyndigheder i Fællesskaberne, så overbærende, når der er tale om ECU 10 000, når det drejer sig om en lønmodtagers skat?
So are all the authorities, all the tax authorities of our Community so indulgent in the case of ECU 10 000 when they are dealing with the tax of an employee?
Hvor-
Whole fam-
Wemheuer det, der kræves med hensyn til regnskabsføring, opkrævning m.m. af pengene, for at sikre at det fungerer.
Wemheuer for what is required in matters of bookkeeping, collection and so on of the funds, in order to ensure that it works.
dan ville det være, hvis man sagde, at man ikke betalte skat?
ilies can live on ECU 50 000 for a whole year, and ECU 10 000 - well, who pays ECU 10 000 in tax in a year?
Det er for dyrt at kontrollere det.
It costs too much to chase that.
Det koster mere, end det indbringer.
It costs more than it brings in.
Der er dog betydelige svagheder i systemet, hvilket blandt andet Europa-Parlamentets midlertidige undersøgelseskomité for toldtransiteringer har påvist.
However, there are significant weaknesses in the system, as has been shown by the European Parliament's ad-hoc committee of inquiry into questions of customs transits, among others.
Måske kunne man se på det på den måde - jeg ved, det er en unfair sammenligning -og ville så komme til en anden vurdering.
Maybe we could look at it like that -1 know it is an unfair comparison - and perhaps we would come to another judgment.
Kommissionens forslag om, at medlemsstaterne bliver økonomisk ansvarlige for alvorlige administrative fejl, er logisk og hilses velkommen.
The Commission's proposal that the Member States should be financially responsible for serious administrative errors is logical and welcome.
Alt er jo ikke EU's fejl, selvom det ofte er det.
Not everything is the fault of the EU, even if it often is.
Seppänen (GUE/NGL). - (FI) Hr. formand, Fællesskabets egne midler består af andelen i bruttonationalproduktet og merværdiafgiften samt af toldafgifter.
Seppänen (GUE/NGL). - (FI) Mr President, the Com munity's own resources are made up of gross domestic product, value added tax and customs duties.
Den mest omtvistelige af disse er toldafgifterne, fordi Fællesskabet ikke har sit eget overvågningsorgan, men er fuldkommen afhængigt af de nationale overvågningsorganer.
Of these, the most open to interpretation is customs duties, because the Community does not have its own monitoring mechanism, but has to rely completely on that of individual states.
Denne betænkning af teknisk natur vil ikke løse alle pro blemer, men den er et første, enkelt skridt i den rigtige ret ning.
This technical report is not going to solve all the problems, but it is a simple first step in the right direction.
Det er vigtigt at notere, at samtidig med, at Kom missionen forsøger at forstærke lovgivningen, så bidrager forslaget også til, at lovgivningen gøres endnu mere kom pleks, hvilket er mindre godt.
It is important to note that at the same time as the Commission is trying to strengthen the legislation, the proposal also contributes to making the legislation even more complex, which is less good.
V-gruppen vil støtte be tænkningen i sin helhed.
The Green Group is going to support the report in its entirety.
Personligt synes jeg, at Seppanens indlæg om en totalreform er interessant og noget, Kommissionen bør overveje i fremtiden.
Personally I think that Seppänen's contribution on a total reform is interesting, and something which the Commission should look at in future. ture.
Jeg deler ordfører Bardongs holdning, at det ikke er be grundet at medregne toldafgifterne i de nettoydelser, som landene betaler.
I agree with Mr Bardong, the rapporteur, that there is no justification for reckoning customs duty as net contributions from individual states.
F.eks. kan Holland, som opkræver et be tydeligt beløb i told fra transiteringer, lægge dem til i sin egen nettoydelsesandel og sige, at det er ydelsen til Den Europæiske Union,-skønt det i virkeligheden er Den Europæiske Unions penge, som landet bare overfører til Den Europæiske Union.
For example, Holland charges a considerable amount of customs duty for transit traffic, adds it to its own net contribution and says it is paying money to the EU, although, in actual fact, it is EU money which it is only accounting for to the EU.
Derfor vil toldafgifterne, som er meget omtvistelige med hensyn til inddrivning, også for vrænge betalingsituationen ved nettoydelserne.
Thus these customs duties, which are collection items very hard to categorize, are also distorting the picture we have of net payments.
Fischler, medlem af Kommissionen. - (DE) Kære hr. for mand, kære parlamentsmedlemmer. De ændringsforslag, der er indeholdt i betænkningen fra hr. parlamentsmedlem Bardong vedrørende Kommissionens forslag om skærpelse af forskrifterne om forvaltning af egne indtægter, viser, hvor interesseret Parlamentet er i ordningen om egne indtægter, og hvilken betydning det tillægger en mere gennemskuelig forvaltning af disse egne indtægter.
Fischler, Member of the Commission. - (DE) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the amendments in Mr Bardong's report on the Commission's proposal to tighten up the rules relating to the administration ofthe Union's own resources reveal the extent of Parliament's interest in the own-resources system, and the importance it ascribes to the transparency by which these resources are administered. tered.
I og for sig vil det være radikalt og bedst set i lyset af denne sag, hvis toldafgifterne slet ikke skal betales til Den Europæiske Union, men at landene fik lov til selv at be holde dem.
So in this regard it would be a radically better idea if cus toms payments were not accountable to the EU at all, but were kept by individual countries themselves.
Et tilsvarende pengebeløb kan så inddrives af Den Europæiske Union som en andel af bruttonationalproduktet.
A corresponding sum could then be due to the EU in the shape of GDP.
Da vil landene blive virkelig interesserede i at opkræve disse toldafgifter, fordi de vil få dem alle selv.
In this way, the Member States would have a keen interest in collecting all these customs duties, as they would keep them themselves.
Herved kan der heller ikke opstå misforståelser, om der skal opkræves told, og om den skal betales til Den Euro pæiske Union eller ej.
So there would be no mal practice arising from whether to collect duty and account to the EU for it or not.
Problemet vil derved være løst, men det er en meget radikal løsning. .
It would solve the problem, but it would be a very radical solution.
Kommissionen indtager følgende standpunkt til æn dringsforslagene: De ændringsforslag, der sigter mod en redaktionel forenkling samt en mere gennemskuelig og retfærdig procedure, accepteres.
On the amendments, the Commission has adopted the following position.
Det gælder for det første for den del af ændringsforslag nr. 1, der tager sigte på at præcisere de tilfælde, hvor medlemsstaterne skal drages økonomisk til ansvar for de fejl, der medfører et tab af egne indtægter.
The amendments which aim at both editorial simplification and a more transparent and just pro cedure are accepted.
For det andet: For den del af ændringsfor slag nr. 2, der har til formål at afklare, på hvilke betingelser beløb anses for ikke-inddrivelige eller skal erklæres for ikke-inddrivelige. For det tredje: For den del af æn dringsforslag nr. 4, der fastlægger, at annullerede beløb, som ikke accepteres af Kommissionen, bogføres.
This applies firstly to that part of Amendment No 1 which aims to specify the cases in which the Member States must take financial responsibility for mistakes which result in a loss of own resources; secondly, to that part of Amendment No 2 which aims to clarify the conditions under which amounts are not recoverable or are declared to be non-recoverable; thirdly, for that part of Amendment No 4 which provides that amounts included in the cancelled debt, which are not accepted by the Commission, should be calculated accord ing to the book.
Ligeledes vil Kommissionen ændre proceduren for annulleringer, den har godkendt.
Likewise, the Commission will change the procedure for cancellations which it has allowed.
I dette tilfælde skal denne godkendelse ikke længere være stiltiende, men skal meddeles skriftligt til medlemsstaterne.
In this case this agreement should no longer be implicit, but the Member States should be informed in writing.
Medlemslandene drager ikke nytte af, at de ikke opkræver told i overensstemmelse med gældende fælles regler.
Member States do not gain from the fact that they do not collect customs duty according to common regulations.
Det er dog set i lyset af en fælles fordel begrundet at fastsætte regler, som rammer de medlemslande, som begår forsømmelser.
From the point of view of the common interest, however, we are justified in making regulations so that Member States will suffer if they flout them.
Det er ved fradrag i bogføringen, at medlemslandene kan forsøge at finde en måde at unddrage sig deres ansvar for fejlene.
In assessing depreciation in bookkeeping, Member States might thereby try to shake off responsibility for mistakes.
Derfor kan disse fradragsretter være fri og udelukkende medlemslandets eget anliggende.
That is why these depreciation laws cannot be free, and the business of each individual country alone.
Det er særdeles begrundet, at på grund af væksten i administrationsomkostninger undersøges mindre fradrag ikke, og pengene for mindre forsømmelser forsøges ikke inddrevet.
Because of growing administrative costs it is right that we should not start to examine minor depreciation laws, and should endeavour not to inherit areas of malpractice.
Det er vigtigt, at der lægges vægt på tilstrækkelig store sager.
It is important to focus sufficient at tention on big issues like this.
Holm (V). - (SV) Hr. formand, som et led i arbejdet med SEM 2000 gælder det om at forbedre den økonomiske forvaltning af EU's egne penge.
Holm (V). - (SV) Mr President, as part of the work on SEM 2000 it is intended to improve the financial administration of the EU's own resources.
I denne betænkning fra Bardong om netop EU's egne penge, for hvilke medlems staterne er ansvarlige for opkrævningen af, siges, at med lemsstaterne er forpligtet til at tage et større ansvar for
This report by Mr Bardong on the EU's own resources, which the Member States are responsible for collecting, says that the Member States have a duty to take greater responsibility
