Hughes gsmålet igennem, som opfølgning af den proces, der blev iværksat med hvidbogen om vækst, konkurrenceevne og beskæftigelse, til Essen og nu til Madrid.
I regret to say that, in my experience, the consultation process on the Green Paper and the White Paper could have been improved, particu­larly in the United Kingdom.
Vi stillede bevidst os selv den opgave ikke at opstille en endeløs ønskeseddel over de ting, vi gerne ville opnå i en ønske­verden på det sociale område, men derimod en begrænset koncentreret liste over realistiske prioriteringer, som der ihærdigt skulle tages fat på i de kommende to år.
We can no longer allow one Member State to act as a drag anchor on social progress throughout the rest of the European Union. In fact, it is quite clear from recent experience that in cases where the Social Protocol annexed to the Maastricht Treaty is applied, businesses in the Member State in question are only too keen to embrace the improved standards laid down in the laws we adopt at European level.
Det har vi opnået i den betænkning, De har fået forelagt i dag.
My final remarks concern the broad and important theme of employment, which is the section of the report I prepared myself.
Jeg blev' personligt ret opmuntret af at læse den fælles rapport fra Kommissionen og Rådet, dér var vedføjet konklusionerne fra Madrid.
I personally was quite heartened to read the joint report from the Commission and Council annexed to the Madrid conclusions.
Det glædede mig navnlig at se den vægt, der var lagt på behovet for at oprette fælles beskæftigelsesindikatorer.
I was particularly pleased to see the emphasis placed on the need to establish common employment indicators.
Dette er noget, vi som Parlament krævede forud for topmødet i Madrid.
This is something we as a parliament called for in the lead-up to the Madrid Summit.
Vi mener, at det vil fremme den demokratiske flersidede overvågningsproce­dure til kontrol med medlemsstaternes flerårige program­mer på beskæftigelsesområdet. Dette lyder som en hel masse jargon, en masse ord og en masse henvisninger til procedurer, men bag dem ligger kommissærens engagerede arbejde med at forsøge at forbedre beskæftigelsessituatio­nen.
We believe it will help with the democratic multilateral surveillance procedu­re to monitor the Member States' multiannual program­mes in the employment area.
Dette er ikke kun ord på papiret, men et forsøg på at bekæmpe den ulyksalige arbejdsløshed og forbedre EU­borgernes sociale forhold.
These are not just words on paper but an attempt to tackle the misery of unemployment and to improve the social condition of the citizens in the European Union.
Denne rapport tager et skridt i den rigtige retning.
This report takes a step in the right direction.
Betænkningen forelægges i mit navn, men man vil kunne se på forsiden, at det i meget høj grad er et fælles arbejde sammen med syv medordførere i Udvalget om Sociale Anliggender og Beskæftigelse og fem ordførere for udtalelser fra andre udvalg.
Or did he mean the Council, which in 1995 has blocked some important social action programmes, not to mention a number of urgently needed directives, such as those on worker secondment or atypical working conditions? Or what about the European Parliament?
Jeg vil gerne oprigtigt takke dem for det engagerede arbejde, de har udført i forbindelse med denne betænkning.
With this report and the motion for a resolution, we Members are sending out a clear message today: without an active social policy, there can be no people's Europe.
Dette gentages i afsnittet om socialpolitikken: I artikel 117 hedder det, at det er nødvendigt at fremme en forbedring af arbejdernes leve­ og arbejdsvilkår.
In spite of the Delors White Paper and the decisions taken at Essen, many Member States have still not introduced the necessary followup programmes.
Dette er nødvendigt for fælle­smarkedets funktion og for at forhindre konkurrencefor­drejninger.
The European Social Fund is the only real instrument in our employment policy which targets two important problem groups: young people and the longterm unemployed.
Jeg vil begrænse mig til nogle få brede spørgsmål og overlade enkelthederne til de forskellige ordførere. For det første er der i betænkningens del ΠΙ, som vedrører arbejd­sret og arbejdsstandarder, opstillet en række punkter, som vi forhandlede og drøftede med kommissærens tjenestegre­ne.
In my opinion for the Committee on Economic Affairs, Î have referred to the increasing globalization of capital, technology and management as production factors.
Disse omfatter information og høring af ansatte i mindre virksomheder og spørgsmålet om en arbejdsklausul i offentlige bygge­ og anlægskontrakter.
How can we possibly imagine that national and local governments can develop their labour markets and employ ment policies without taking account of these trends?
Disse og andre spørgsmål andre steder i betænkningen, såsom foranstalt­ninger til bekæmpelse af racisme og klare foranstaltninger i forbindelse med fattigdom, var genstand for vore forhan­dlinger, og der blev opnået enighed om forskellige former for foranstaltninger under vore drøftelser og i en brevvek­sling mellem kommissæren og mig.
Some major players on the European political stage want social policy to remain a purely national issue, but I wonder whether this is not mainly prompted by the entirely understandable fear of losing everything they have achieved in the past. The key question is whether the regions and the Member States can maintain or improve what they have without some degree of cooperation.
Padraig Flynn har været ansvarlig for at udarbejde en grønbog og en hvidbog, som nu er kulmineret i det andet handlingsprogram.
I cannot help feeling that we are like moles in the social field, digging away at our tunnels and only occasionally poking our heads above ground, but no one knows where or when to expect us.
Jeg beklager at sige, at efter min erfa­ring kunne høringsprocessen i forbindelse med grønbogen og hvidbogen have været bedre, navnlig i Det Forenede Kongerige.
Is this the way to inspire confidence in the people of Europe?
I betragtning af, at vi har så mange medordføre­re for Udvalget om Sociale Anliggender og Beskæftigelse, vil jeg begrænse mine bemærkninger til det, vi drøftede i Udvalget om Retlige Anliggender og Borgernes Rettighe­der.
I am not just talking to the Commission here, I am also thinking of colleagues in the House, and even in my group, because I think we desperately need to talk about social issues.
Den generelle bemærkning, jeg gerne vil fremsætte, er, at de spørgsmål, vi opstiller på arbejdsmarkedsområdet, klart indebærer en nye vilje fra begge parter til at anvende den sociale protokol, der er vedføjet Maastrichttraktaten, i de tilfælde hvor der ikke findes noget andet retsgrundlag i traktaten.
It is also unfortunate that some of the Court of Justice's rulings are threatening to undermine the progress we have made. So it is essential that the implications of measures planned under the programme are evaluated for both women and men.
Dette er meget vigtigt.
Third, education.
Vi kan ikke længere tillade, at én medlemsstat er en hæmsko for fremskridt på det sociale område i resten af Den Europæiske Union.
The information society is an enormous challenge, and the EU's continuing training programmes such as LEONARDO must be very closely geared to developments in this field.
Det fremgår da også helt klart af de seneste erfaringer, at i tilfælde, hvor den sociale protokol, der er vedføjet Maa­stricht­traktaten, anvendes, er virksomheder i den pågæl­dende medlemsstat særdeles opsatte på at overtage de forbedrede standarder, der er fastsat i de bestemmelser, vi vedtager på europæisk plan.
In the Committee on Economic Affairs, we felt that the global dependence which I mentioned earlier was a good reason for taking another look at the whole question of social security, and we urged that working hours, conditions of employment, employment contracts, collective agreements, and particularly pensions and social security in the Member States should be better tailored to the requirements of the market and those of the workers themselves.
Vi havde fire hovedkonklusioner.
Fourth, labour law and regulations.
Jeg er desværre ikke enig i den konklusion.
Do we have to keep coming out with the same old arguments?
Der kommer et tidspunkt, hvor lovgivning er nødvendig, og jeg ved, at mange af mine vælgere også mener dette.
This is something my colleagues need to think about, more than the Commission.
Jeg har talt med lobbyen for de handicappedes rettigheder i min valgkreds, og den mener, at en adfærdskodeks for handicappedes rettigheder ikke er tilstrækkelig, og at der er behov for bindende lovgivning.
We also need to look at the question of subsidiarity. It is completely unacceptable that subsidiarity is used as an excuse for blocking programmes in countries where the most applications are made for European funding, such as the United Kingdom and Germany, in particular.
Mine sidste bemærkninger vedrører det brede og vigtige spørgsmål om beskæftigelse, hvilket er den del af betænk­ningen, jeg selv udarbejdede.
We also realized that, for exactly the same reason, the main industrialized nations are going to have to reach agreement on social and environmental issues at an international level.
Frem for alt vil jeg gerne komplimentere kommissæren og hans tjeneste­grene for den måde, hvorpå de har ført beskæftigelsesspør­
There is a more general objective behind our specific demands, in that we wish to have the social protocol included in the EC Treaty and put an end to opting out.
Vi opfordrer Kom­missionen til at se nærmere på dette som et særdeles vigtigt spørgsmål.
That was the question which François Mitterrand asked in the House exactly a year ago. Who did he have in mind?
Vi mener også, at Europa-Parlamentet altid skal høres om socialpolitikken, selv når der ikke er nogen forpligtelse hertil i henhold til traktaten.
Union, and there will be more than eighty million in 2025.
den sociale sikring i medlemsstaterne skal skræddersys mere efter markedets, arbejdstagernes og de selvstændiges egne behov.
That is the reason why it was important to present this social action programme.
Endelig bekymrer det os, at der ikke har været så mange fremskridt, som der burde have været i forbindelse med artikel 48, og navnlig ser vi gerne, at opmærksomheden i højere grad rettes mod overførslen af pensionsrettigheder for personer, der arbejder i medlemsstaterne.
But you are not unaware that Community programmes against social exclusion and support to schemes benefitting elderly or excluded people have been blocked because our Council has failed to reach unanimity, which is extremely regrettable because these programmes provide genuine added value to national and local policies.
Fru formand, hvad er det i grunden vi taler om, når Kommissionen kommer med meddelelsen om medbestemmelse i virksomheder med mere end 50 arbejdstagere, når fremtidsforskere forelægger os deres profetier, og de mest moderne virksomheder viser os vejen med meget flade og »voksne« arbejdspladsstrukturer.
of the European Union's population, will certainly need to be given more attention than is currently the case.
Skal man så udkæmpe en oldnordisk kamp på dette område?
Then as I worked on the report I came to realize that the Union's legal framework for dealing with these three problems is totally inadequate.
Også dette siger jeg i højere grad til mine kolleger end til Kommissionen. sionen.
The Union cannot initiate really effective action on social protection.
Vi har samtidig konstateret, at af de samme årsager, og dette må de vigtigste industrilande bære, må man stræbe mod en social- og miljøpagt på internationalt niveau.
In this report, therefore, first of all, we urge the Commission to bring forward two legislative initiatives for consideration at the intergovernmental conference.
Jeg vil gerne vide, hvorledes hr. Flynn stiller sig til dette samt til en ny pagt med arbejdsmarkedets parter om ret til erhvervsuddannelse. Er kommissær Flynn parat til at beskæftige sig med dette, således som vi anmoder om det i forslaget til beslutning?
Firstly, we expect a communication on establishing a special legal basis within the body of the Treaty to consolidate the principles governing social policy at European level, and, secondly, we ask the Commission to propose that the new Treaty resulting from the 1996 intergovernmental conference should incorporate a special clause on the principle of equal treatment irrespective of an individual's race, sexual orientation, religion, language, age or disability.
Resten af verden retter blikket mod Europa, når det drejer sig om spørgsmålet om, hvorledes Europa hævder sit sociale ansigt.
That is why, although we regard this programme as progress, our committee is urgently demanding a new programme against exclusion, making full use of the appropriations added to the budget and taking into account die complexity of the problem.
For resten af verden er Europa i højere grad, end vi forestiller os, det sociale Europa, af hvilket man forventer en mere ledende rolle. Dette blev nok en gang gjort klart for mig på en stor international kongres, som ikke drejede sig om socialpolitik men om forholdet mellem industripolitik og forskningspolitik.
This is the thrust of the amendments from the UPE group proposing the creation of a database for initiatives taken in this area, as well as making exclusion a priority objective for the Union during the constitutional review.
Måske Kommissionen?
At the same time, we believe that the Commission could be bolder with its proposals in the present situation.
Den har forelagt det sociale han dlingsprogram for 19951997, hvormed den imidlertid desværre viser sig som en institution, der i højere grad forvalter det eksisterende end udformer det nødvendige, og integrationsmotoren kører desværre ikke for fuld kraft. Eller var det Rådet, der var ment?
For that reason we recommend, among other things, that the Commission should draw up a directive on harmonizing humanitarian and technical assistance measures for disabled persons in the Member States in order to overcome the practical problems preventing freedom of movement for such individuals in the European Union, be they workers or ordinary citizens, on the basis of Article 48 and 49 of the EEC Treaty and Article 8a of the Maastricht Treaty.
Vores budskab lyder: Uden aktiv socialpolitik eksisterer der ikke noget borgernes Europa. Det vil jeg tydeliggøre på 5 punkter.
To conclude, Madam President, I express the hope that the improvement in the Commission's stance that has come about during our negotiations with it will be an ongoing process in order that the people of Europe can be provided with answers on these vital issues.
I min udtalelse for Økonomiudvalget har jeg peget på den stigende internationalisering af produktionsfaktorerne, kapital, teknologi og ledelse.
Mendonça (ELDR). - (PT) Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, the report now being debated in this plenary session should remind us of the compulsory originality demanded by the construction of Europe and the vital role that the social dimension must play in that process.
Der er en klar udvikling hen imod eri verdensøkonomi og et verdensomspændende ar bejdsmarked.
We belong to the camp that does not throw all its weight behind the total harmonisation of social policies as a goal of the European Union.
Selv kriminalitet er blevet til en international big business, som er vanskelig at bekæmpe.
Cultural phenomena and tradition, the practices of each country must continue to be respected and even implemented.
Hvorledes kan vi også så meget som bare forestille os, at nationale og lokale myndigheder kan udvikle deres arbejdsmarked og deres beskæftigelsespolitik uden at tage hensyn til disse tendenser.
However, the huge range of social questions, which the gradual economic integration of the Union and the completion of the single market have determined, requires that we make a move from the theory of social policy, in the Green and White papers, to action.
Allerede nu og i fremtiden vil nationale med lemsstater få stedse vanskeligere ved at falde tilbage på gamle politiske instrumenter såsom kontrol med pengeforsyningen, beskatning af kapital og formue og fastsættelse af valutakurser.
European citizens must feel that, along with initiatives by the governments of their countries, and as an important and decisive complement to actions carried out at that level, European institutions must be decisively involved in ensuring that solidarity and social cohesion do exist.
Det afgørende spørgsmål er imidlertid: vil regionerne og medlemsstaterne kunne opretholde og for bedre, hvad de har, uden harmonisk samarbejde?
The programme and the report being debated raise our hopes and yet, at the same time, do not leave us fully satisfied as to the prospects for practical action in the future.
For det første drejer det sig om beskæftigelsen.
Hermange (UPE). - (FR) Madam President, with so much being said about economic and monetary union it is time to restore a heart and a soul to Europe.
Faldet i antal arbejdspladser fortsætter, og den næste økonomiske krise dukker op i horisonten.
The lack of them is very deeply felt by our fellow citizens who think that the construction of Europe has become rather dehumanized.
Arbejdsløsheden er højere end før sidste recession.
That is the aim of our social programme today.
Den Eu ropæiske Socialfond er det eneste reelle beskæftigelsespolitiske instrument, der sigter målrettet mod to vigtige problemgrupper, nemlig unge og langtidsledige.
Between ten and twelve million people in Europe are living below the poverty threshold.
Dens po tentiale skal udnyttes fuldt ud til skabelse af arbejdspladser.
An estimated two to five million people are homeless.
Er det en måde at indgyde Europas borgere tillid til Europa?
Finally, eighteen million people are unemployed.
Vi har slået til lyd for at arbejdstiden, arbejdsbetingelserne, ansættelseskontrakterne, de kollektive overenskomster og især pensionerne og
There are reckoned to be sixty million people over sixty years of age in the European
Desværre truer også nogle domme, EF-Domstolen har afsagt, med at få den konsekvens, at de opnåede fremskridt igen bliver bragt i fare.
Stenius-Kaukonen (GUE/NGL). - (FI) Madam President, I should like to start by stressing a matter which concerns the structure of the Commission proposal.
Således er det i programmet ikke til at komme udenom, at foranstaltningerne skal vurderes ud fra deres indvirkning på kvinder og mænd.
Equal opportunities are given a section all to themselves, when in fact this should be the principle underlying the entire action
For det tredje: Uddannelse. Kvalifikationer og livslang uddannelse er grundlaget for vores politik.
responsible, which is that we need to ensure that European legislation and measures are systematically transposed if our work is to be more effective in practice.
Informationssamfundet er en af de vigtigste udfordringer.
This is very much in line with the strategy of consolidation which Mr Flynn has promised to pursue during his period in office.
Netop her bør EU's videreuddanne.lsesprogrammer som f.eks.
Leperre-Verrier (ARE). - (FR) Madam President, without a social Europe there will be no Europe at all.
LEONAR-DO støtte sig tæt til udviklingen.
How many times have we heard that creed, knowing how little the deeds match the words?
Den svarer til mangfoldigheden i det, der skal gøres. Men én ting er klar: I centrum skal stå arbejdsog sundhedsbeskyttelsen.
In its opinion on the fourth equal opportunities programme the Committee on Women's Rights also placed great emphasis on the principle of mainstreaming, as did Mr Schäfer in his speech.
Det er helt uacceptabelt, at programmer blokeres med argumentet om lavere prioritet netop i de lande, hvor der indgives flest ansøgninger om europæiske støttemidler -stikord Storbritannien og Tyskland.
The Committee on Social Affairs and Employ ment is urging the Member States to implement the 1993 recommendation on the provision of daycare.
Jeg vil slutte med at udtrykke håbet om, at de fremskridt i Kommissionens holdning, der skete under vore forhandlinger med den, vil få konsekvenser, således at der kommer svar på de for de europæiske borgere så livsvigtige spørg smål.
If no progress is made through the efforts of the Member States themselves, the committee is calling on the Commission to prepare a proposal for a binding decision after consulting labour organizations.
Vores konkrete krav skal samtidig have en generel konsekvens, nemlig at den sociale protokol medtages i EF-traktaten og at opting out ophører.
The second point I want to deal with concerns the fight against exclusion and poverty.
Hvis det lykkes at virkeliggøre en reform nu efter Maastricht, der tager hensyn til arbejdstagernes daglige problemer, så har vi bragt Europa et stykke fremad på vejen mod sociale fremskridt.
No doubt there are a thousand good reasons to explain why the fourth antipoverty programme is constantly being adjourned, but Commissioner, are you capable of explaining a single one of them to the millions of people throughout Union territory living in insecurity or indeed exclusion?
Hermange (UPE). - (FR) Fru formand, på et tidspunkt, hvor der tales meget om Den Økonomiske og Monetære Union, er det på tide igen at give Europa et hjerte og en sjæl.
Madam President, one significant way of helping to reconcile work and family life is the provision of free or subsidized school meals for all children.
Denne mangel føles meget stærkt af vores medborgere, der mener, at den europæiske konstruktion i nogen grad er uden menneskelighed.
This frees mothers from the task of looking after schoolchildren at lunchtimes and also has an important role to play in preventing the neglect of children and safeguarding health.
Det er formålet med vores sociale program i dag. Det var nødvendigt.
This has the support of all parties in Finland and, I believe, in the other Nordic countries.
Jeg vil blot erindre om nogle tal.
Finally, my third concern is education and training.
Mellem ti og tolv millioner mennesker lever under fattigdomsgrænsen i Europa.
We have a greater duty than ever to train and educate.
Det anslås, at der er mellem to og fem millioner hjemløse personer.
Every individual should be provided with a lifelong educational credit to allow him to complete his training.
Endelig er der atten millioner arbejdsløse i Europa.
Furthermore, youth unemployment should be made illegal.
Man mener, at der er tres millioner mennesker, der er over 60 år i Den Europæiske Union, og der vil være over firs millioner i 2025.
In our rapidly changing societies - I am thinking in particular of the growth of the information society - it is important for every young person to be able to find his place, because his future capacity to adapt to the world Of work is at stake here.
Derfor var det vigtigt at fremlægge dette sociale handlingsprogram.
Wolf (V). - (DE) Madam President, we have something of a problem here, and I must confess that I feel somewhat torn on this whole issue.
Derfor kræver vi i denne betænkning først og fremmest to interventioner med et lovmæssigt indhold fra Kommissionens side med henblik på regeringskonferencen.
In addition all the Member States must be urged to recognize the social dimension in the construction of Europe if, as François Mitterrand put it so well, we want Europe to be our future.
