Et af elementerne i dette tilbud var netop en tilbagetrækning af indonesisk militær tilstedeværelse på Østtimor og et tilbud om at forhandle en selvstyrestatut.
One of the elements contained in this of fer was, in fact, the withdrawal of the Indonesian military presence in East Timor and an offer to negotiate a status of autonomy.
Dette tilbud er blevet diskuteret af generalsekretæren, hr. Annan, Portugals udenrigsminister, hr. Jaime Gama, og udenrigsministeren selv, Ali Alatis.
This offer has been discussed among the Secretary-General, Mr Annan, the Portuguese Minister for Foreign Affairs, Mr Jaime Gama, and Indonesia's own Minister for Foreign Affairs, Ali Alatas.
Det var et møde, der blev afholdt i slutningen af august i New York, mener jeg.
As far as I remember, this meeting took place in New York at the end of August.
Spørgsmål nr. 51 af Bernd Posselt (H-0772/98):
Question No 51 by Bernd Posselt (H-0772/98) Subject: Christians in East Timor
Hvilke forholdsregler agter Kommissionen at træffe for at støtte den undertrykte kristne befolkning i Øst timor efter de politiske omvæltninger i Indonesien?
What measures does the Commission intend to take to support the oppressed Christians in East Timor following the political changes in Indonesia?
Jeg kender ikke - for jeg har ingen oplysninger fra nogen af parterne - de konklusioner, som dette møde mundede ud i.
I do not have any information from either of the two par ties involved, so I do not know what conclusions this meeting produced.
Det er til en vis grad klart, for jeg kan forestille mig, at det drejer sig om meget følsomme og vanskelige bilaterale forhandlinger.
This is logical to a certain degree, since I imagine that they will be very delicate and difficult bilateral negotiations.
Under alle omstændigheder må det faktum, at den indonesiske regering for første gang of fentligt har erklæret, at den er rede til at trække militæret ud og forhandle en selvstyrestatut, betragtes som et skridt fremad mod en mulig bilæggelse af konflikten.
In any case, this is the first time that the Indonesian Government has publicly demonstrated its
Hr. kommissær, jeg beder Dem besvare fru Kinnocks spørgsmål.
I give the floor to Mr Marin to answer Mr Posselt's question. tion.
Kinnock, Glenys (PSE). - (EN) Jeg takker kommissæren for de venlige ord og hans personlige støtte til mig i udførelse af det, han betragtede som en vanskelig opgave i Cambodja.
We are going to assess this week whether or not the situation in the area does, in fact, warrant the withdrawal of our observers be cause the security conditions are not being met.
Vi mener, at den generelle procedure har været acceptabel, selvom det er rigtigt - som De har kun net konstatere - at der under valget var nogle problemer såvel ved afstemningen som ved optællingen.
However, I myself, on behalf of the Commission, do not have any information on these bilateral negotiations.
Og disse problemer er i princippet ved at blive undersøgt og løst.
President-Question No 52 by Glenys Kinnock (H-0781/98) Subject: Cambodia
Som han siger, så fortsætter protesterne, og prins Ranariddh sagde så sent som i går, at han var bange for, at det hele hurtigt kunne komme ud af kontrol.
Secondly, I must tell you that the President-in-Office of the Council has confirmed that the European Union agrees with the decision taken by ASEAN to send the Thai Deputy Minister for Foreign Affairs to Phnom Penh to meet the King.
Jeg er meget be kymret over at høre Dem sige, at vores observatører mu ligvis bliver trukket tilbage, fordi det vil sende en meget alvorlig besked til det cambodjanske folk, der har det me get svært for tiden.
He is currently working over there, and we hope that he will be able to determine whether it is possible to send international mediators back to the country to try to restore governability.
Det er sandsynligt, at der bliver et topmøde mellem hr. Hun Sen, prins Ranariddh og Sam Rainsy.
What does the Commission consider the appropriate response to be on the elections held in Cambodia on 26 July this year?
Hvor sandsynligt er det mon, at strammerne i regeringen vil slå hårdt ned på stemmeafvigelser for at gøre en ende på det én gang for alle?
I give the floor to the Commissioner to answer Mrs Kinnock's question.
Problemet om selve valget bekymrer mig ikke, fru Kinnock, for jeg mener, det kan forsvares.
Consequently, and in conclusion, I would first like to thank you for your excellent and very difficult work.
Det der bekymrer mig og også Dem - er jeg overbevist om - er den situation, der er opstået efter valget, da der er sket noget, som alle - også De - anså for at være en stor risiko, og det var, at taberne ikke ville acceptere resultatet af valget, for man regner med, at vinderne altid vil acceptere resultatet af et valg, fordi de har vundet.
Secondly, with the exception of some imperfections that must be corrected, the elections and their result can be justified at an international level.
Og ulykkeligvis er denne situation opstået, og det skaber en vanskelig situation, som ikke giver mulighed for politisk voldgift.
Thirdly, we must currently look at what we are doing to ensure that a government can quickly be formed and that we do not return to a situation often experienced in that country, a country that has al ready suffered enough because certain political leaders can never come to an agreement.
For det tredje finder jeg det interessant, at Thailand forsøger sig som fredsmægler.
I thank you, in particular, be cause I could tell that it was not exactly an easy task and that you performed it - in my opinion and in that of inter national observers - effectively and extremely well.
Jeg kunne godt tænke mig at vide, hvor Den Europæiske Union bliver af. Den har in vesteret ressourcer og interesser i Cambodja.
You thus allowed us to consolidate the European Union's credibility and its participation in the electoral process, despite working in a political framework marked by the distrust of Cambodian politicians.
Er der en chance for, at Rådet vil bruge lidt mere tid i Cambodja?
You also helped to as sert Europe's presence within the joint group of election observers.
Marin. - (£5) Fru Kinnock, jeg har formelt modtaget en anmodning fra observatørchefen om at give ordre til at trække observatørerne ud af sikkerhedsgrunde.
This issue is a very important one, Mrs Kinnock, because we must not forget a fundamental point: this is the second time that the international community has been involved in organising free elections.
Jeg vil selvfølgelig først konsultere alle medlemsstaterne, og det er noget, vi vil gøre på fredag.
Elections were previously or ganised that led to the establishment of a government and sparked off a coup.
Fredag formiddag vil vi tage den endelige beslutning.
To correct this situation, the interna tional community has returned in order to organise new elections.
Jeg skal - selvom De måske allerede kender den - frem lægge den anmodning, som lederen af observatørgruppen har tilsendt os, om at vi, hvis vi havde besluttet at bibeholde Den Europæiske Unions tilstedeværelse i et stykke tid for at sikre international tilstedeværelse, trækker re præsentanterne fra ud af Cambodja af sikkerheds-og stabilitetsmæssige årsager.
The risk as far as Cambodia is concerned is that the international community might believe that it is a lost cause and that, as such, there is no point in putting any more effort into it.
Vi vil i denne uge vurdere, om situationen i området faktisk gør det tilrådeligt, at vi træk ker vores observatører ud, fordi sikkerhedsforholdene ikke er betryggende.
I therefore emphasised to the Council of Ministers the importance of avoiding this situation of international fatigue that occurs when things are not working out.
I denne situation står vi over for noget, der af og til sker: Man må vurdere observatørernes sikkerhed, situationen i området og den politiske skade, det kan udrette at trække observatørerne ud.
As you know, the assessment carried out by the Commission is still in keeping with the declaration issued on 27 July by the joint group of international election ob servers.
Men De, som har arbejdet sammen med observatørerne, vil kunne forstå, at jeg ikke kan bede dem om at være heltemodige.
This stated that the elections had been free and fair, and that they were a credible reflection of the will of the Cambodian people.
For det andet kan valget og valgresultatet bortset fra de fejl, der skal rettes, for svares internationalt.
As he says, the protests continue and Prince Ranariddh said only yesterday that he feared the whole thing could shortly spin out of control.
For det tredje må vi nu se, hvad vi kan gøre, for at der hurtigt dannes en regering, og for at vi ikke vender tilbage til en velkendt situation i landet, som allerede har lidt rigeligt, fordi visse politiske ledere aldrig kan blive enige.
I am very worried to hear you say that there is a likelihood that our observers will pull out because that will send a very serious message to the people of Cambodia who are clearly going through very difficult times.
Og den sag er meget vigtig, fru Kinnock, for vi må ikke glemme noget grundlæggende: Det her. er anden gang det internationale samfund arrangerer frie valg.
The problem of the elections as such does not worry me, Mrs Kinnock, as I think they can be justified.
Risikoen ved Cambodja er, at det internationale samfund betragter det som et håbløst tilfælde, og mener at det derfor ikke er værd at gøre sig flere bestræbelser.
Unfortunately, that is what has happened and it is creating a difficult situation that does not allow for political arbitration.
Derfor har jeg over for Ministerrådet lagt vægt på, at den internationale træthed, der opstår, når tingene ikke fungerer, skal undgås.
There is a likelihood of a summit between Mr Hun Sen and Prince Ranariddh and Sam Rainsy.
For Cambodja kan ikke betragtes som et håbløst tilfælde.
I wonder how much you believe that this is a serious prospect?
Det ville være for færdeligt. Dette er vores holdning.
I also wonder how likely it is that the hardliners in the govern ment will call for a severe crackdown on dissent in order to stamp it out once and for all.
Under alle omstændigheder har jeg bedt mine tjenestegrene om til på fredag at have udarbejdet et forslag til af gørelse, som vi vil forelægge medlemsstaterne.
I must inform you - although you are probably already aware of this - of the request that has been forwarded to us by the head of the observation group.
For det, jeg virkelig frygter, er, at situationen, efter alle de bestræbelser Den Europæiske Union har gjort sig med repræsentanter og observatører og ved at bruge USD 12 millioner, gentager sig.
It asks that we withdraw the European Union representatives on the ground from Cambodia for reasons of security and stability, that is, if we had decided to maintain the European Union presence in the region for a period so that an inter
Og jeg har allerede været vidne til andre situationer, der er mundet ud i træthed, skæbnetro, vi kan intet gøre - holdningen.
Thirdly, it is interesting that Thailand is involved in trying to broker peace.
Og når det sker i befolkninger som Cambodjas, kan man frygte det værste.
I would like to ask where is the European
Hr. Bangemann, jeg beder Dem besvare fru Thors' spørgsmål.
Kinnock, Glenys treme to mean that the elections could not be justified?
Mit spørgsmål til Dem lyder: Var observationen virkelig så god, som det er blevet hævdet i dag?
I do not believe that they were.
Derpå drøftede vi det med aktørerne.
Union?
Der aftegner sig omsider enighed om at gå aktivt ind på europæisk plan.
It has invested resources and interest in Cambodia.
Derfor har vi iværksat de forberedende foranstaltninger og projekter i programmet Info 2000.
Is the Council likely to invest a little more at this time in terms of presence on the ground in Cambodia?
Men det synes at ændre sig nu, så vi agter-at forelægge denne meddelelse, og det vil ske inden længe.
Naturally, I shall first consult all of the Member States and this is something that we want to do on Friday.
Thors (ELDR). - (SV) Tak for denne oplysning, hr. kom missær.
We wish to take the final decision on Friday morning.
Til trods for vanskelighederne kan det siges, at dette valg fik nogle fornuftige resultater.
Given the difficulties, these elections produced some reasonable results.
Og det, der sker i øjeblik ket, er noget, vi har diskuteret mange gange med fru Kinnock, med ambassadørerne og med observatørerne.
And what is happening now is something we discussed many times with Mrs Kinnock, with the am bassadors and with all the observers.
Det store problem med dette valg er ikke at arrangere det, hvilket er vanskeligt.
The problem with these elections is not organising them, which is difficult in itself.
Problemet ved valget er, om dem, der vinder, er generøse nok til at finde en løsning, der kan være national enighed om. Og om dem, der taber, accepterer, at de har tabt valget.
The problem with them is ensuring that whoever wins is generous enough to find a solution that involves national consensus, while those who lose the elections must accept that they have lost.
Og problemet er, at dem, der har vundet, ikke har været generøse nok til at lave en aktion, der er national enighed om, og dem, der har tabt, be nytter sig af disse argumenter og siger, at valget er ugyldigt.
And the problem is that those who have won have not been generous enough to look for national consensus and those who have lost say, on the basis of those arguments, that the elections are not valid.
Det er altså en situation, der ulykkeligvis er en gen tagelse af tidligere situationer i Cambodja.
In other words, it is a situation that, unfortunately, is a repeat of previous situations in Cambodia.
Formanden. - Mine damer og herrer, vi har opbrugt ti den, der var afsat til spørgsmål til kommissær Marin, som jeg takker for hans tilstedeværelse og hans svar.
President. - We have now come to the end of the time set aside for questions to Commissioner Mann, whom I would thank for his replies.
Spørgsmål 53 og 54 besvares derfor skriftligt. (')
Questions Nos 53 and 54 will receive written answers. (')
Jeg deler Kommissionens opfattelse af, at dette er en vigtig sektor.
In this situation we are faced with something that often · occurs: we have to assess the safety of the observers, the situation on the ground and the political damage that might be caused by withdrawing the observers.
Har vi brug for meddelelsen, eller bør man med det samme nedsætte en high-level working group for helt konkret at kunne komme videre?
And if their head believes that at any stage the observers could find themselves in a serious situation, then it is very difficult to ask them - particularly those in the northern provinces whom you visited with me - to remain in an area where they could be killed or kidnapped, or where any thing might happen to them.
Spørgsmål, til hr. Bangemann
Questions to Mr Bangemann
Formanden.-Spørgsmål nr. 55 af Astrid Thors (,H.-ül39/4s):
President - Question No 55 by Astrid Thors (H-0739/98)
Om: Kommissionens meddelelse om paneuropæisk geografisk information
Subject: Commission communication on pan-European geographic information
Rådet anmodede i 1994 Kommissionen om at foretage en undersøgelse af den paneuropæiske geografiske in formations rolle og status.
EU ministers asked the Commission to investigate the status and role of panEuropean geographic information (GI) in 1994.
Kommissionens GD XIII foranstaltede derpå en bred høringsproces, som skulle udmønte sig i en meddelelse til Rådet og Parlamentet med titlen »GI 2000 - mod en europæisk politisk ramme for geografisk information«.
DG XIII of the Commission initiated a wide consultation process which should lead to a communication to theGouncil and Parliament called GI 2000: Towards a European Policy Framework for Geographic Information.
Kommissionen lovede først, at denne vigtige meddelelse ville foreligge i november 1996, og har siden i flere omgange fastsat et nyt tidspunkt, men til dato er meddelelsen ikke blevet forelagt.
The Commission first promised to deliver this important Communication in November 1996 and that date has been followed by several subsequent promises as to delivery dates, but to date the Communication has not been presented.
Bangemann. - (DE) Vi vil forelægge denne meddelelse.
I have already experienced other situations that have ended in fatigue, inV, fatalism, in 'there is nothing we can do'.
Jeg anser den for nødvendig, for vi er nødt til nu at sam menfatte, hvor langt vi er nået.
What is the Commission going to do to ensure that the Communication is presented as soon as possible?
Vi vil naturligvis ikke op give vores øvrige aktiviteter, men fortsætte med dem.
I give the floor to Mr Bangemann to answer Mrs Thors's question.
Jeg har allerede sagt, at vi i programmet Info 2000 har taget en række skridt til opbygning af europæiske databaser og fortegnelser.
It was for that reason that we set out the preparatory measures and projects within the INFO 2000 programme.
Det er, om man vil, de første elementer til en infrastruktur for geografiske informationer.
Marin. - (ES) I believe that your colleague, Mrs Kinnock, could answer that much better than I could.
Vi har en web-site, som mere end 300 aktører deltager i.
It was very difficult to work, and the work that was done was, in my opinion, quite extraordinary.
På konferencer har vi flere gange præsenteret planen om GI 2000; i de nye programmer til opbygning af et brugervenligt in formationssamfund videreføres disse programmer inden for rammerne af det 5. rammeprogram for forskning.
There were obviously flaws in terms of access to the media and, in that difficult context, there were certain circumstances that prove to be unacceptable when analysed from a European point of view of what elections mean in Germany, the United Kingdom, Spain or France.
Det vil sige, at vi har en hel række aktiviteter, som naturligvis
Were those elements sufficiently ex
') Se bilag »Spørgetid«
') See Annex to Question Time.
Jeg'håber, at kommissæren kan bekræfte, at dette direktiv skal forelægges for Parlamentet, så vi kan behandle sagen først i det nye år.
Some years ago, we made sure that industry banded to gether to set up a European umbrella organisation, and that happened, but in the past we have often been forced to the conclusion that, in spite of the importance of the subject and our efforts to support it in the research pro gramme, European industry was not sufficiently inter ested.
Men i sidste instans er det jo kun tilskyndelser. Industrien skal selv overtage sagen og vise større interesse end hidtil.
We presented a first proposal for a directive in J 996 to experts from the Member States, in dustry, consumer organisations and to those bodies re sponsible for traffic safety.
Derfor tror jeg, at en sådan meddeleise godt kan komme til at spille en rolle.
In this document, we followed the testing specifications and performance requirements of the European Enhanced Vehicle Committee.
Formanden. - Da spørgeren ikke er til stede, bortfalder spørgsmål nr. 56.
Thors (ELDR). - (SV) Thank you for that information, Commissioner.
Spørgsmål nr. 57 af Mark Watts (H-0791/98): Om: Sikrere frontpartier i biler
But I am con cerned that so much time has passed since the first plans were put forward in 1994.
Bangemann. - (EN) Jeg kan bekræfte det, jeg sagde om datoerne.
Others are of the opinion that something should nevertheless be done.
Vi vil gøre vores bedste - forudsat at vi modtager undersøgelsen i december - for at fremsætte de nød vendige ændringsforslag til det oprindelige forslag først i det nye år.
That is why we have commissioned an independent expert with the task of examining the issue, particularly this con tentious question of the cost-benefit ratio.
Men de to eller tre undersøgelser, De nævnte, var lige præcis årsagen til, at vi atter har bedt EEVC om at indarbejde dem i deres egne undersøgelser, så vi får de seneste videnskabelige resultater med. Det er grunden til, at vi ønsker at vente til december- så vi kan få sagen fore lagt og derefter træffe de nødvendige foranstaltninger.
As soon as these results are available - and also, by the way, the final report which is expected in December - the Commission services will agree on a final version of the proposal for a directive, so that we should be able to discuss it in Council and Parliament at the beginning of next year.
Hvornår forventer Kommissionen at fremlægge det forslag til direktiv om at gøre bilers frontpartier mere ^ sikre for fodgængere og cyklister, som i Kommissionens andet handlingsprogram vedrørende færdselssikkerhed planlægges forelagt i 1998?
I also wonder whether any appropriations have been earmarked in the Commission's budget for promoting this unified approach to boosting European competitiveness.
Formanden. - Spørgsmål nr. 58 af Niall Andrews (H-0830/98):
The Commission's own work would certainly gain from a more uniform starting-point.
Hr. Bangemann, jeg beder Dem besvarer hr. Watts' spørgsmål.
Watts (PSE). - (EN) Thank you Commissioner for that very comprehensive and helpful answer.
I Irland betragtes sådanne opringninger som en lovovertrædelse, der straffes med bøde og/eller fængsel i tilfælde af chikane-opringninger.
All con clude that up to 2 000 lives a year could be saved and 20 000 serious injury accidents could also be prevented if this new directive to make cars safer when involved in col lisions with pedestrians and pedal cyclists becomes law.
Kan Kommissionen oplyse, i hvor stort et omfang dette spørgsmål er blevet behandlet på EU-plan, og hvorledes mener Kommissionen i bekræftende fald, at der kan gribes effektivt ind over for lovovertrædelser af denne art?
I believe that the burden of proof really does exist, that this measure is required and every month, every week and every day that we delay allows people to be unnecessarily injured on our roads.
Vi forelagde i 1996 medlemsstater nes eksperter, industrien, forbrugerorganisationerne og de fora, under hvis ansvarsområde færdselssikkerheden hører, et første forslag til direktiv, som vi havde udarbejdet på grundlag af specifikationer fra undersøgelser og præstationskrav fra European Enhanced Vehicle Committee.
I hope the Commissioner can confirm that we shall see this directive on the table within this Parliament so that we can expedite the matter early in the New Year.
Hr. Bangemann, jeg beder Dem besvare hr. Andrews' spørgsmål.
Bangemann. - (DE) We shall be presenting this communication.
Det drejer sig om direktiv 97/66 af 15.12.1997 om behandling af personoplysninger og beskyttelse af privatlivets fred inden for telesektoren.
I have already said that we have taken a series of steps in the INFO 2000 programme to construct European databases and directories.
Høringerne viste, at deltagernes meninger var særdeles forskellige.
We have a website at any rate, in which over 300 players are involved.
Derudover er der en række medlemslande, som mener, at udgifterne er uforholdsmæssig høje set i re lation til den mulige nytte.
That there fore means that we have a whole series of activities that will, of course, be going on.
Andre er af den mening, at no get sådant alligevel skal gøres.
But ultimately these are all incentives.
Vi har derfor overdraget en uafhængig ekspert den opgave at undersøge især det omstridte spørgsmål om cost-benefit.
Industry must itself take over and show greater interest than it has done hitherto.
Så snart disse resultater foreligger - og tillige den afsluttende rapport, der forventes færdig til december- vil Kommissionens tjene stegrene tilpasse den endelige udgave af direktivforslaget, så vi kan drøfte dette forslag i Rådet og i Parlamentet i be gyndelsen af det nye år.
That is why I be lieve that a communication of this type certainly does have a role to play.
Watts (PSE). - (EN) Tak, hr. kommissær, for deres dækkende og brugbare svar.
Question No 57 by Mark Watts (H-0791/98)
I dette direktiv opfordres medlemsstaterne endvidere til at fastsætte retsmidler og sanktioner i tilfæde af, at de rettigheder, abonnenter på og brugere af telefontjenester har.
Bangemann. - (EN) I can confirm what I said as to the dates: we will try our best - provided we get the study in December - to propose to you early next year the neces sary amendments to our original draft.
