Et andet forslag ligger i vort håb om, at hele sektoren for små og mellemstore virksomheder fra bank- og kreditverdenens side vil kunne opnå ydelser, der sætter dem i stand til at handle og sætte gang i væksten, beskæftigelsen og investeringerne, ikke mindst i form af en kodeks for bankmæssig adfærd, der særlig gælder de små og mellem store virksomheder.
Gasòliba i Böhm (ELDR). - (ES) Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, I should like to highlight the importance of this debate which demonstrates the interest shown by both the European Commission and the Euro pean Parliament in SMEs, which are decisive for the proper operation of the European economy and have a major impact on levels of employment.
Også i år finder igen en sådan konference sted, og jeg tror, det er absolut nødvendigt at inddrage Europa-Parlamentet i det forberedende arbejde til denne konference og også i dens målsætning. ning.
Let me point out that calling last year the year of lifelong learning was a very important step because it raised people's awareness of the importance of lifelong learning and showed that learning can be an enjoyable pastime.
Arbejdspladser til borgerne i EU og i Storbritannien står øverst på vor politiske dagsorden.
Research and development is an important area, not just product research but also market research.
Det er derfor, vi retter opmærksom heden mod SMV-sektoren, navnlig mod små virksomhe der, som har færre end ti ansatte. Hvorfor?
We should also consider where small undertakings will find their markets in future.
Vi behandler for øjeblikket i Parlamentet tre vigtige initiativer, som netop er meget vigtige for de små og mellemstore virksomheder: For det første SLIM-initiativet, der blandt andet også har prioriteret en forenkling af konjunkturstatistikken, en solid anstødssten for vores små og mellemstore virksomheder; men det vedrører f.eks. også diplomerne.
First of all, the proposals made in the three reports show that we need greater coordination in the European Com mission and, in particular, DG XXIII, and we hope that the creation of Directorate C will improve the level of coordination and the application of the European Commission's own actions.
Jeg tror, det fremover var vigtigt også at beskæftige sig med procedureforkortelser, for at disse kunne omsættes så hurtigt som muligt, hvis der er udbygningsplaner et eller andet sted.
Secondly, it is very important to revise, simplify and improve the fiscal treatment of SMEs, something that must also be applied to administrative treatment, as illustrated by a very graphic example by the rapporteur, Mrs Torres Marques.
Hvad kan Kommissionen og Parlamentet gøre for at medvirke til at skabe arbejdspladser via små virksomheder i Den Europæiske Union?
Hyland (UPE). - Madam President, I very much welcome the report on SMEs and join with other Members in congratulating the rapporteurs.
De initiativer, det indeholder, er prisværdige. Men øverst på Kom missionens dagsorden bør være at udnytte GD XXIII's begrænsede ressourcer til en kritisk gennemgang af retsregler og programmer, som kommer fra andre generaldirektorater, for at afdække deres positive eller negative virkning for Europas små virksomheder.
When one takes into con sideration that SMEs are responsible for up to 80 % of new jobs created over the past five years, this highlights the potential for job-creation in small to mediumsized industry and also the need for Parliament and governments to create the economic environment for their con tinued growth.
Jeg er ganske vist glad for, at der er blevet oprettet en SMV-facilitet til Wirral, men undersøges, tilvejebringes og overvåges sådanne midler af GD XVI eller GD XXIII?
We have already pointed out the need to set up, for example, reciprocal guarantee companies, risk capital and even earmarking credits from the Euro pean Investment Bank, and once again we would like to ask for this, something which unfortunately has not yet been put into practice, despite the fact that we have already asked for this; well, now the rapporteurs are calling for it again.
Sammenholdes de med en etableret, samlet SMV-politik, som er udformet af GD XXIII?
Fourth, we must emphasise the importance of vocational training.
Det andet område, der for øjeblikket debatteres i Europa-Parlamentet, er fiche d'impact.
Cash flow is also a problem for new industries.
Her drejer det sig om forebyggelse, at altså retsregler fra husets side udformes på en sådan måde, at de er slanke og effektive.
However, we should not allow such a high failure rate to discourage us in our efforts to create new jobs in what has been a much neglected area up to now.
Det er naturligvis en meget vigtig opgave, Europa-Parlamentet her har, og man kunne her i opløbet allerede forhindre mange bestemmelser, som så bagefter udarter til en belastning. ning.
Neither should we forget that the failure rate and job losses in so-called large industry is much greater.
Jeg vil byde kommissær Papoutsis velkommen til min valgkreds i juli, hvor han vil opleve, at EU's anvendelse af SMV-midler er meget nyttig i Ellesmere Port og Wirral.
And finally, my fifth point, is that SMEs must be given easier and improved access to international markets.
I mellemtiden vil han måske gøre sig overvejelser om, hvordan EU's mærkningsbestemmelser kan skabe forvirring og forfærdelse hos små virksomheder, hvis de ikke forklares og gennemføres ordentligt.
From my work in rural development and the number of new jobs created in programmes like LEADER and other Community-based enterprise schemes, I am of the opinion that in the past we have ignored the potential of our human resources, our people, to play a meaningful role in the generation of wealth.
Der er en lille chokoladevirksomhed i Cheshire, som raser mod de store chokoladeproducenter, hvis større ressourcer gør dem i stand
As legislators, we have overregulated their lives and reduced their natural inclination to become entrepreneurs.
Her drejer det sig om at levere sammenligningsdata om egenkapitalandel, skattebyrder og lønomkostninger. Denne objektivering er et helt centralt og vigtigt punkt.
Theonas (GUE/NGL). - (EL) Madam President, all the fine words about growth and tackling unemployment in Europe that we heard earlier on from Mr de Silguy will bring no practical result unless specific measures are taken immediately to support SMEs, and in particular small enterprises which, as the Commission itself has pointed out, are the seedbed of job creation.
Måske ville Regionsudvalget være det rigtige udvalg for et styrket arbejde på dette område, fordi netop benchmarking yder et helt vigtigt bidrag i regionerne.
In fact, craft and small enterprises have accounted for 60 to 80 % of the new jobs created in the past five years. It should concern
RUbig afgørende for, at det går godt for den europæiske økonomi og beskæftigelsesniveauet.
Theonas us, however, that the average survival time for SMEs is just five years.
Men det drejer sig også om at styrke uddannelsen og videreuddannelsen. Man bør overveje, om de bevillinger, der for tiden stilles til rådighed for LEONARDO, har den nødvendige størrelse.
González Triviño (ARE). - (ES) Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, Commissioner, once again we are debating a subject which keeps appearing on our agenda in this assembly: the creation of employment and stimulating the activity of SMEs.
I de tre betænkninger, vi beskæftiger os med i denne forhandling under ét, og som Det Europæiske Liberale og Demokratiske Partis Gruppe støtter - med visse forbehold omkring nogle bestemte punkter - undersøger og foreslår man en række aspekter, som det vil være umuligt at beskrive i mit korte indlæg. Jeg vil dog gerne omtale fem af dem.
There is no lack of explanations or reasons for this drama of continental proportions: the energy crisis, economic globalisation, technological progress and the demographic explosions, in other words we have plenty of explanations but still no jobs.
Forskning og udvikling er et vigtigt område, ikke kun produktforskningen, men også markedsforskningen.
The European Union is failing to put in place the measures that are needed to improve the environment in which small and mediumsized enterprises function.
Vi bør altså også gøre os tanker om, hvor de små virksomhe der finder deres markeder i fremtiden.
We have no illusions, of course, about the effectiveness of such isolated programmes in the overall context.
Hyland (UPE). - (EN) Fru formand, jeg glæder mig overordentlig meget over betænkningen om SMV'er og tilslutter mig andre medlemmer, når de komplimenterer ordførerne.
Fortunately, the countries of the European Union have been pioneers in the creation and maintenance of a system of social protection which protects people from poverty and abandonment and therefore has helped tens of millions of Europeans without jobs.
Når man tænker på, at SMV'erne står for indtil 80 % af de nye arbejdspladser, der er skabt i de seneste fem år, understreger dette det jobskabelsespotentiale, der findes i de små og mellemstore virksomheder, og også behovet for, at Parlamentet og regeringerne skaber de økonomiske rammer for deres fortsatte vækst.
However, this system is being maintained at the cost of strong fiscal pressure which is making it increasingly difficult not only to create but also to preserve enterprises, especially the small enterprises in existence.
For det tredje gør vi stadig ikke tilstrækkelige fremskridt med hensyn til en lettere adgang til finansiering.
Madam President, we support the positive recommendations made by the three rapporteurs and the endeavours of Mr Papoutsis to energize the sector.
Vi har ved andre lejligheder gjort opmærksom på nødvendighe den af, at der skabes ordninger som gensidige garantiselskaber, risikovillig kapital samt ydelse af lån fra Den Europæiske Investeringsbank.
One has doubts, however, about the long-term prospects for SMEs and job generation when consumption is being squeezed so hard by the merciless austerity programme. And, of course, these enterprises are the first victims.
Parlamentet har gang på gang anmodet om dette, men det er desværre ikke sket, sådan som vi har krævet, og som ordføreren nu påny kræver.
We feel obliged to express reservation, Madam President, about the effective ness of the Union's policies which, as in the case of the employment problem, are most notable for producing a lot of talk and no practical effect.
For det fjerde skal vigtigheden af erhvervsuddannelserne understreges.
As far as this situation is concerned, everyone with anything to do with running public life in the European Union is responsible.
Den omstændighed, at halvdelen af de nye projekter mislykkes inden for fem år, viser helt klart, at vi har forsømt at yde de projektansvarlige støtte til færdigheder på områderne forskning, markedsudvikling og ledelse, som er af særdeles stor betydning for deres overlevelse.
At municipal, regional, national and Community level there are more and more regulations imposing endless obligations on people who want to set up such an activity, and you almost need the intrepid spirit of a 15th century explorer to launch into the adventure of setting up an SME in today's European Union.
Likviditeten udgør også et problem for nye industrier.
Perhaps the interventionism of the authorities has in many cases reached an excessive level.
Vi bør heller ikke glemme, at antallet af fiaskoer og mistede arbejdspladser inden for den såkaldte storindustri er meget større.
Most of our youth have their eyes set on a job in the public administration, they all want to be the civil servants and, although we know that civil servants are vital for a properly run public administration, we have to accept that they do not create wealth.
Og for det femte bør der skabes lettere adgang for de små og mellemstore virksomheder til de internationale markeder. der.
Inspite of all our support for SMEs and inspite of all the Community's eloquent words we see a process of centralization every where, a process during which small and mediumsized undertakings are being forced into dependency on larger undertakings.
På baggrund af mit arbejde med udvikling af landdistrikterne og på baggrund af antallet af nye arbejdspladser, der er skabt som led i programmer som LEADER og andre fællesskabsbaserede virksomhedsordninger, er jeg af den opfattelse, at vi tidligere har overset det potentiale, som vore menneskelige ressourcer, vor befolkning, har til at kunne spille en betydningsfuld rolle med hensyn til vækst skabelse.
In this rather wretched context, I would like to add that the proposals which we are discussing, and which my group will support, will not be enough to change things.
Som lovgivere har vi overreguleret deres liv og mindsket deres naturlige trang til at blive iværksættere.
For example, it is an excellent idea to bring down VAT, especially for SMEs, and it is also an excellent idea to support cross-frontier cooperation or the training of apprentices and employees employed in craft industries, but in practice small enterprises are being ravaged by growing competition, increasing taxes and costly funding.
Theonas (GUE/NGL). - (EL) Fru formand, de store ord om vækst og arbejdsløshedsbekæmpelse i Europa, som vi hørte fra hr. de Silguy, vil ikke få nogen praktiske følger, hvis der ikke træffes snarlige konkrete foranstaltninger for at støtte de små og mellemstore virksomheder og navnlig de mindste af disse, der, som Kommissionen også selv konstaterer, udgør hovedgrundlaget for de nye arbejdspladser.
Here we need to introduce a specific programme that really takes account of the fact that the crafts, services and self-employment offer new job chances and that cannot and must not act as a breakwater for deregulation and the atomization of small firms but that enables them to benefit from the fact that there are regional economic links that work, benefit from the fact that innovation is also supported by setting the appropriate standards and targets.
Det er således typisk, at 60-80 % af de nye arbejdspladser, der er kommet inden for de sidste fem år, skal findes inden for håndværksvirksomheder og små virksomheder.
In this sense - and looking also at the cooperative and alternative movements in our countries - we consider support for SMEs an important issue.
Tiden tillader ikke, at jeg går i detaljer med de mange aspekter af SMV, som kræver vor øjeblikkelig opmærksomhed, bortset fra at sige, at SMV'erne nu bør prioriteres højere i nationale og EU-programmer til jobskabelse.
When interest rates go down, they go down for the powerful, for those whom the banks see as good custom ers, but these decreases in interest rates are never applied to small companies.
Medlemsstatsregeringerne skal indføre en gunstig skatteordning, som fremmer og belønner en »iværksætterånd«, i betragtning af, at en skattelempelse, som fremmer »iværksætterånd«, er meget mere omkostningseffektiv end udbetaling af bistandshjælp til de arbejdsløse.
Large enterprises, not to speak of multinationals, always obtain better financial conditions, better access to markets and better support from the public institutions, which often compete among each other, offer ing huge incentives for large enterprises to set up business within their municipalities.
Vi skal også medvirke til at fremme markedsføringsstrukturer til kooperativer for at gøre de små virksomheder i stand til at konkurrere og markedsføre deres produkter med succes. Dette bør også afspejles i EU's konkurrence politik.
Against this background, the authorities must accept the idea of positive discrimination in favour of SMEs.
Den Europæiske Union træffer ikke de nødvendige konkrete foranstaltninger til forbedring af det miljø, som de små og mellemstore virksomheder opererer i.
But that must mean giving real priority to environmental aspects, to economic independence, to improving working and living conditions and, above all, to the development of the local economy and its survival and efficiency, rather than to some utopia of small producers, to the idea that we have to increase the number of small firms in relation to the total number of firms, or whatever.
Forslaget til ELISE-programmet er stadig blokeret af Rådet.
That is something we certainly regard as misguided.
Erfaringerne har dog vist, hvilke muligheder de har.
On the whole, however, these reports tend in the right direction.
Hvis det blev udført på den rigtige måde, kunne det have en positiv effekt.
I would particularly like to thank Mrs Torres Marques on her useful report.
Der er nødt til at blive sat en stopper for denne uacceptable boykot af de små og mellemstore virksomheder i de kollektive forhandlinger og samråd på EU-plan.
At the same time, we should bring down some of the barriers to the creation of enterprises and stimulate the development of an enterprising spirit among our young people.
Det skorter ikke på elementer, der kan forklare årsagerne til dette drama, som vedrører hele kontinentet, det være sig energikrisen, globaliseringen af økonomien, det teknologiske fremskridt eller befolkningseksplosionen. Der er for mange forklaringer og for få jobs.
This requires the greatest possi­ble simplification of the letter and application of the complicated tax laws, putting the cost of money within the reach of new firms and firms courageous enough to regenerate themselves, investment in research and projects to stimulate and encourage research and, finally, involve­ment of young people through school so that work is not just a synonym for sacrifice but means collaboration and cooperation.
Men systemet opretholdes på bekostning af et højt skattetryk, som vanskeliggør ikke blot etableringen, men også opretholdelsen af virksomhederne, navnlig de alle rede eksisterende små virksomheder.
These reports by Mr Garosci, Mrs Peijs and Mrs Torres Marques on the small­and medium­sized business sector make it plain that the European Parliament is keen to shift European employ­ment into top gear.
Vi er imidlertid nødt til at udtrykke forbehold med hensyn til EU-politikkernes effektivitet, da de er kendetegnet af mange ord uden egentlige resultater, hvilket også gælder for beskæftigelsesproblemet.
EU programmes cut across national schemes and SMEs themselves are unable to find their way through the subsidiarity jungle.
Wolf (V). - (DE) Fru formand, kære kolleger, spørgsmålet om de små og mellemstore virksomheder diskuteres tit, mener jeg, i et forkert ideologisk perspektiv, som om det drejede sig om endelig at realisere Adam Smiths utopi om et samfund af lutter småproducenter.
Paasilinna (PSE). ­ (FI) Madam President, colleagues, it has been calculated that if each small or medium­sized enterprise could recruit one extra employee, unemploy­ment in the Union would be dealt with at a stroke.
Det er ikke det problem, det reelt drejer sig om.
There is something of a conflict between potential opportunities and exactions here.
Trods al støtte til de små og mellemstore virksomheder og trods alle flotte erklæringer har vi i Fællesskabet overalt en proces i retning af centralisering, overalt en proces, hvorunder små og mellemstore virksomheder tvinges ind i afhængighed af større virksomheder.
How is it possible ­ as happens in a number of countries ­ to adopt such a bizarre approach as to impose on small businesses much the same bureaucracy and obligations as on large ones, for example employers' contributions, book­keeping, value added tax, accounts, audits, compulsory insurance and so on?
Det er sørgeligt at konstatere, hvordan antallet af personer, der ønsker at starte en forretning eller skabe beskæftigelse, hvert år falder.
The European Parliament must not just play Father Christmas, but must apply itself to securing more simple and more transparent legislation.
Alle vi, som har noget at gøre med forvaltningen af det offentlige i Den Europæiske Union, er ansvarlige for denne situation.
Nor is education be the main villain of the piece, as Mrs Torres Marques would have it.
Sandsynligvis er statens interventionisme i mange tilfælde blevet for omfattende.
Risk minimization is not something taught at school, but a cultural and anthropological reality.
Vi har ofret den frie virksomhedsånd på det sikre velfærds alter.
It would be rash to burn down the whole system of education just because of one finding.
I denne forstand er det - også på baggrund af andelsbevægelsen og den økologiske bevægelse i vores lande - et vigtigt anliggende for os at støtte de små og mellemstore virksomheder.
At the same time, marketing by SMEs should be facili­tated, because it is difficult and expensive for small businesses, with their limited resources, to break into big markets.
Over for denne triste kendsgerning vover jeg at sige, at de forslag, der er genstand for denne debat, og som min gruppe vil støtte, ikke vil ændre tingene.
The recent informal Environment Council debated this problem. Will the Commissioner tell us what initiatives the Commission intends to pursue in this regard?
I virkeligheden bringer det os efter vores opfattelse på afveje.
This would promote labour­intensive enterprise and employment.
De foreliggende betænkninger går imidlertid alt i alt i en ganske god retning.
The question is, what does the Commission intend to do to bring taxation up to date in the age of the information society?
Især fru Torres Marques vil jeg gerne gratulere med hendes nyttige betænkning.
That is really the issue at stake right now.
Her skal de offentlige myndigheder acceptere tanken om en positiv diskrimination af de små og mellemstore virksomheder.
Moretti (NI). ­ (ΓΓ) Good old Europe; the symphony plays on, more out of tune than ever.
Det er helt nødvendigt at lempe kravene over for disse virksomheder og sænke skattetrykket, hvis man ønsker, at de skal have mulighed for at overleve.
There is assistance, but never enough: many small and medium­sized enter­prises and craft businesses have never been helped.
Samtidig skal man lempe hindringerne for etableringen af virksomheder og fremme udviklingen af iværksætterånden hos vores unge.
We wonder why 50 % on average of small and medium­sized firms go bankrupt in the first three years of business.
González Triviño (ARE). - (ES) Fru formand, ærede medlemmer, hr. kommissær, endnu en gang behandler vi et emne, som igen og igen er genstand for debat her i forsamlingen: Jobskabelse og fremme af de små og mellemstore virksomheders aktiviteter.
Thyssen (PPE). ­ (NL) Madam President, a year or so ago in another debate on SMEs I quoted a slogan which says that SMEs are not big companies in pocket format, but have many features which are specific to them and they need a policy designed specifically for them.
I tyve år har vi magtesløse set på den umådeholdne stigning i arbejdsløshedstallene.
Current policy allows for the specific needs of small businesses by granting them derogations.
Betænkningerne fra hr. Garosci, fru Peijs og fru Torres Marques om små og mellemstore virksomheder og håndværksfagene gør klart, at Europa-Parlamentet ønsker at lade Europas beskæftigelsesmotor køre for fulde omdrejninger.
Thyssen number of them, since they account for 99 9c of all businesses, then their economic power, since they employ almost 65 % of the Union"s workforce.
Desværre hakker den motor noget i det.
does not always make life easier for the business world.
Det skyldes nok manglende brændstof, for Rådet nægter at frigøre midler til de forskellige SMV-programmer.
This is borne out by a Commission study of intraCommunity transactions and the INTRASTAT and VAT obligations involved.
Men det er ikke den væsentligste grund. Peijs-betænkningen peger på den manglende samordning.
Starting from this observation, in the perspective of a policy of employment and maximum growth, it was essential to grant SMEs a special place, in terms of interest and aid, and an attempt has been made to do this since the integrated programme of 1994.
Der råder en vis uoverensstemmelse mellem mulighederne og kravene.
This means that small businesses must be the rule and not the exception.
