F.eks. er der blevet indledt overtrædelsesprocedurer over for to tredjedele af medlemsstaterne i relation til de 19 transportrelaterede di rektiver, hvor omsætteisen til national lovgivning skulle have været tilendebragt inden udgangen af 1997.
If he would like to write to me I will certainly pursue the matterand indeed if he were to take up the matter with Mrs Glenda Jackson who is the current Maritime Minister in the new United Kingdom government it is conceivable that he would find a cooper ative reply.
McMahon (PSE). - (EN) Jeg hilser Kommissionens en gagement, når det gælder om at håndhæve proceduren i transportsektoren velkommen, men vil gerne henlede kommissærens opmærksomhed på en sag, som omfatter en af vælgerne i min valgkreds, Salvatore Colucci.
Kinnock, Neil. - The honourable Member is a fastidious attender in this House and a fastidious attender to the Treaty.
Han forsøger forgæves at få arbejde i handelsflåden i Det For enede Kongerige.
She will know, therefore, precisely what the legal position is.
Han har haft kolossale kampe med de britiske myndigheder, og især med den tidligere administration.
I repeat that insofar as compensation arrange ments are concerned, as she knows very well, the Com mission has no power.
Vi fandt ud af, at den britiske søfartsstyrelse ikke ville acceptere hans kvalifikationer, selvom EU-direkti-vet sagde, at de skulle.
There is nojuxtaposition of events which could give the Commission power so far as com pensation is concerned.
Der er en udlændingelov i Det For enede Kongerige, der går helt tilbage til 1911.
President. - Thank you very much, Mr Kinnock, for your reply and your willingness to help.
Den fast slog, at kun officerer i handelsflåden skulle være britiske statsborgere.
I am sure Mr M c M a hon will convey your message to the individual in ques tion.
Vi venter på, at denne lovgivning bliver op hævet.
Question No 48 by Anne Mcintosh (H-0185/98) Subject: Lorry Blockade in France
Kommissionen vil naturligvis fortsætte med at forfølge disse og andre overtrædelsessager, indtil medlemssta terne har gennemført direktivet ordentligt.
Secondly, the honourable Member will know very well the extent of the authority exercised by the Commission so far as its ability to intervene in domestic industrial dis putes is concerned.
Til enhver tid vil foranstaltningerne blive besluttet udelukkende på grundlag af Kommissionens pligt til at sikre tiltrædelse af lovgivning, som medlemsstaterne helt klart er gået ind for i Rådet.
Those limitations may frustrate me as someone who wants to safeguard freedom of movement, but I observe the law, as she says, in my role of guardian of the Treaties.
Watts (PSE). - (EN) Jeg vil gerne takke kommissær Kinnock for hans svar.
Will the Commission investigate why the French Government has now confirmed that the British hauliers who suffered as a result of last year's lorry block ade in France will receive no compensation despite the disruption to the Single Market?
Med rette understreger han den ind sats, Kommissionen, og især hans direktorat, gør for at sikre, at direktiver og forordninger, som medlemsstaterne
Kinnock, Member of the Commission. - The Commission has made enquiries about the matters raised by the honourable Member in her question and I have to report to the House that we have not been able to find any evi
Det er meget vigtigt, at vi bliver enige om kvalifikationerne for sømændene i handelsflåden.
But she will know very well -1 trust that she will pay reference to this in the forthcoming month or so - that there is no preventative power afforded to the Commis-
12.5.98 acceptere, at han, hvis der ikke betales kompensation, og det kan bevises - som i dette tilfælde - at der har været en overtrædelse af bestemmelsen om fri bevægelighed, kan søge Domstolen om at få pålagt den franske regering en straf?
Kinnock, Neil. - My answer to the substantive part of Mrs Hardstaff s question is 'yes' - that representations will continue within the limitations that the House will know of very well.
Vil han mon kommentere det scenario, der er blevet drøftet om, at der i optakten til Frankrigs værtsskab for verdensmesterskabskampene er en mulighed for en trussel om endnu en strejke, og vil han skride ind for at for hindre strejken i at gøre flere lastbilchauffører overflødige og forårsage kæmpemæssige tab for britiske, nederlandske, spanske og andre landtransportselskaber på det tidspunkt?
Nor would I accept the various descriptions of the con duct of affairs in France. I have extremely strong opinions about the way in which the distribution of tickets - if we can use that term - for the World Cup has been organized - if we can use that term - and I also regret the immensely long blockades and the difficulties encountered in 1996.
Kinnock, Neil. - (EN) Jeg kan fortælle det ærede med lem, at jeg helt ærligt ikke kender til de nærmere enkelt heder i den særlige sag, han har nævnt, så jeg vil være ham taknemmelig, hvis han vil skrive til mig, som han foreslår.
sion under the Treaty; neither is there any ability in the Commission to preempt the conduct of a dispute. I hope therefore that whatever other action is taken or proves to be necessary in the course of future months, no one, least of all the honourable Member, will try to give a totally distorted and exaggerated view of what the European Commission can do in the event of any extremely unfortunate, highly regrettable and totally counterproductive action that might be contemplated in some quarters at the time of the World Cup in France.
Han vil selvfølgelig vide, at medlemsstaterne i henhold til den gældende lovgivning forbeholder sig ret til at fastsætte antallet af nationale borgere, der udpeges til stillinger i visse skibsfartskategorier.
God knows, people wanting to see that World Cup in France will have enough to put up with in any case.
Hvis han vil skrive til mig, vil jeg helt bestemt gå videre med sagen, og hvis han skulle tage sagen op med fru Glenda Jackson, der er den nuværende søfartsminister i den nye britiske regering, er det tænkeligt, at han vil modtage et imødekommende svar.
It would be true to say, however, that while there were de lays and diversions experienced by hauliers from all countries going through France in last year's dispute, the action taken by the new French Government was of a different order and it did significantly mitigate the difficulties experienced by hauliers.
Formanden. - Hr. Kinnock, mange tak for Deres svar og velvilje, som jeg er sikker på, hr. McMahon vil over bringe til pågældende person.
Wijsenbeek (ELDR). - Unlike the previous speaker, whose petty, insular views were apparently preoccupied only with British lorry drivers, I would say, Commissioner, that only 10 % of all the lorry drivers concerned from all over Europe have been compensated by the French authorities.
Spørgsmål nr. 48 af Anne Mcintosh (H-0185/98):
President. - Question No 49 by Felipe Camisón Asensio (H-0394/98)
Om: Lastvognsblokaderne i Frankrig
Subject: 'Open skies' agreements with the United States
Jeg gentager, at Kommissionen, som hun meget vel ved, ikke har nogen bemyndigelse, hvad kompensationsordningerne angår. Der er ingen sammenfaldende begivenheder, der kunne give Kommissionen bemyndigelse, hvad kompensation angår.
What information can the Commission provide on the infringement procedures against those Member States which have concluded 'open skies' agreements with the United States in the civil aviation sector?
Vil Kommissionen være rede til at foretage en under søgelse af, hvorfor den franske regering nu har be kræftet, at britiske vognmænd, som led tab som følge af sidste års lastvognsblokader i Frankrig, ikke vil få nogen kompensation på trods af forstyrrelserne af det indre marked?
This means that unless and until the Council endorses a proposal re lating to intervention of the kind that he suggests, it would be not only inappropriate but highly offensive to every thing we believe in as democrats to award to the Commission power to intervene to impose compensation require ments or in other ways to try to dictate the direction in which affairs should go at the time of, or following, an in dustrial dispute.
For det andet vil det ærede medlem være meget velvidende om omfanget af Kommissionens bemyndigelse, når det gælder om at gribe ind i nationale faglige konflikter. Disse begrænsninger kan frustrere mig som en, der ønsker at sikre den frie bevægelighed, men jeg overholder lovgivningen, som hun siger, i min rolle som traktaternes vogter.
Kinnock, Member of the Commission. - Mr President, a short question sometimes provokes a lengthy answer so I apologize in advance for what must unavoidably be a fair degree of detail in response to the honourable Member.
Kinnock, medlem af Kommissionen. - (EN) Kommissionen har foretaget undersøgelser om de spørgsmål, der er rejst af det ærede medlem i hendes spørgsmål, og jeg må meddele Parlamentet, at vi ikke har været i stand til at finde noget bevis på, at der skulle forelige en meddelelse fra den franske regering om, at britiske landtransportvirksomheder ikke ville modtage kompensation som følge af den landtransportarbejderstrejke, der fandt sted i Frankrig i 1997.
Whatever his personal opinions may be, or, indeed, what ever possibilities for action I could contemplate, for as long as the Council refuses interventions of that kind, I will respect the will of the government representatives of democratic administrations.
Hvad angår reelle såvel som andre scenarier, så vil hun vel ikke forvente, at jeg skulle komme med kommentarer om forudsete muligheder.
In November 1994, the Commission communicated to the Member States its concern that bilateral air transport agreements with the United States of America would affect internal Community legislation.
Men hun vil meget vel vide -og jeg håber, at hun vil lægge mærke til dette i den kom mende måned eller deromkring, at der ikke gives Kom missionen nogen forebyggende bemyndigelse i Traktaten; og ej heller har Kommissionen nogen evne til at forebygge en konflikt.
It drew the attention of the Member States to the Commission's view that such negotiations could therefore only be conducted at Com munity level.
Guderne skal vide, at folk, der ønsker at se disse verdensmesterskaber i Frankrig, vil have nok at stå model til, som det er.
Assurances on the issue were sought from the relevant Member States in February 1995 and, when they were not forthcoming, the Commission initiated pro ceedings based on Article 169 of the Treaty in June ofthat year.
Kommissionen har til enhver tid gjort det klart for alle de berørte, at den forventer, at den franske regering overholder enhver retlig forpligtelse, den måtte have, når det gælder om at yde kompensation til de landtransportvirksomheder, der var direkte eller ugunstigt berørt af konflikten sidste år uanset deres nationalitet.
Hardstaff (PSE). - Commissioner, some of the lorries from my constituency caught up in the blockade in France last year were transporting perishable goods, particularly fruit and vegetables, as, indeed, were many lorries from Spain and Portugal: they suffered complete loss of their consignments, not just the late delivery of goods.
Mcintosh (PPE). - (EN) Hr. formand Jeg vil være meget glad for at vise kommissæren teksten til et skriftligt svar, som jeg har modtaget fra den britiske minister om denne sag, og som fik mig til at stille spørgsmålet i denne form.
Since this signified the possibility that an approach that conformed with Community law could be established, the Commission then suspended the in fringement procedure.
Kan kommissæren som vogter og beskytter af traktaterne
That mandate awarded in 1996 did not, however, include market access issues such as traffic rights and capacity, which are plainly vital for the pur-
Wijsenbeek (ELDR). - (EN) I modsætning til den forud gående taler, som i sine smålige, insulære synspunkter helt klart kun var optaget af britiske lastbilschauffører, vil jeg sige, kommissær, at kun 10 % afalle de berørte last bilschauffører fra hele Europa har modtaget kompensation fra de franske myndigheder. Så mener kommissæren derfor ikke, at han har behov for den interventionsmekanisme, som Rådet nu synes at nægte Kommissionen, og at der med denne interventionsmekanisme er behov for en eller anden form for kommissionsfond, hvorfra den, inden medlemsstaterne går over til kun at betale en tiendedel, kan udbetale de penge, der skyldes disse mennesker, der
Will the Commission maintain its pressure to persuade the French Government to honour also this previous com mitment to pay compensation and, incidentally, suggest to them that this would considerably mitigate the increasing irritation felt by other Member States towards France, not just because of their mishandling of the lorry blockade issue but also, more recently, their mishandling of the dis tribution of World Cup tickets?
Wijsenbeek uden egen skyld har været involveret i disse strejker og vejblokader?
Discussions were nevertheless held with represent atives of the USA in accordance with the mandate.
Formanden. - Spørgsmål nr. 49 af Felipe Camisón Asensio (H-0394/98):
What is true, of course, is that Parliament's view - con sistently taken - is a source of great strength, so far as the Commission is concerned.
Dette betyder, at det, medmindre og indtil Rådet bifalder et forslag om en indgriben af den slags, han foreslår, ikke kun vil være være upassende men også di rekte stødende for alt det, vi tror på som demokrater, at til dele Kommissionen bemyndigelse til at gribe ind og på lægge kompensationskrav eller på anden måde forsøge at diktere den retning, som tingene bør antage under eller ef ter en arbejdsmarkedskonflikt.
My one concern is that agreement to a mandate may not come early enough for us to be able to deploy our full negotiating strength simply because a multiplicity of bilateral deals could award the Americans nearly all that they want without European carriers being able to get a bal anced and equivalent amount of access to the very rich United States market in return.
Hvilke oplysninger har Kommissionen om overtrædelsesprocedurerne mod de medlemsstater, der har indgået »open skies-aftaler« med USA på det civile luftfartsområde?
As the honourable Member will know from other parliamentary proceedings at which he has been present, the Commission's view and its action are completely consist ent with our duty to uphold Community law.
Kinnock, medlem af Kommissionen. - (EN) Hr. formand, et kort spørgsmål fører undertiden til et længere svar, så jeg undskylder på forhånd for noget, som uundgåeligt må være en ret så stor detaljeringsgrad i svaret til det ærede medlem.
In addition, as you will also be aware, the Commission is strongly motivated by a practical desire to negotiate con ditions in civil aviation that will be fair, balanced and cer tain to uphold the interests of the Community, of all its Member States, of the civil aviation industry of the Euro pean Union and of the citizens of the Union.
Hardstaff (PSE). - (EN) Kommissær, nogle af de lastbiler fra min valgkreds, der blev fanget i blokaden i Frankrig sidste år, transporterede letfordærvelige varer, herunder frugt og grøntsager, hvilket jo også var tilfældet for mange lastbiler fra Spanien og Portugal.
Camisón Asensio (PPE). - (ES) I must admit, Commissioner, you are acting splendidly in this matter.
De var udsat for et fuldstændigt tab af deres last og ikke kun for for sen le vering af deres varer.
And though it may seem you are facing the danger alone - like Gary Cooper - do not believe it!
Mange af dem afventer stadig den lovede kompensation fra den tidligere, meget langvarigere blokade.
I want to assure you that many Europeans support you and are grateful for your ef forts to consolidate our common market.
Den henledte medlemsstaternes opmærksomhed på Kom missionens synspunkt om, at sådanne forhandlinger der for kun kunne føres på fællesskabsplan.
Konrad (PPE). - (DE) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I think it is very sensible that a supplementary ques tion can also be put during Question Time.
Forsikringer om sagen søgtes fra de relevante medlemsstater i februar 1995, og da de ikke kom, indledte Kommissionen over trædelsesprocedurer med hjemmel i artikel 169 i traktaten i juni samme år.
I frequently make use of this facility, but what we have been witness ing in the course of the last few questions is not the putting of supplementary questions but rather - with all due respect - the exchange of pleasantries.
Kinnock, Neil. - (EN) Hr. formand, jeg er sikker på, at De ville være et fremragende parlamentsmedlem i et hvilket som helst demokrati - det kan der ikke være nogen tvivl om. Jeg forsøger ikke at indsmigre mig hos Dem.
If this goes unchecked, it will result in the creation of se rious discriminations and distortions of competition, causing EU rules to be ineffective and European law itself to be violated.
Mit svar til en væsentlig del af fru Hardstaffs spørgsmål er »ja« - at andragenderne vil fortsætte inden for de be grænsninger, som Parlamentet vil være meget vel bekendt med.
Also, these 'open skies' agreements would make it impossible to be sure of eliminating the imbalances which would result between the national markets and the main companies arriving here from the US, without any reciprocity at all.
Drøftelser om luftfartsrelationer med USA fortsatte i mel lemtiden i Rådet, og i juni 1996 fik Kommissionen tildelt et delvist mandat til at forhandle et fælles luftfartsområde mellem Det Europæiske Fællesskab og USA.
President. - Mr Konrad, I admire your ability to distinguish in advance between a question, a compliment and a comment. I cannot do that.
Da dette be tød en mulighed for, at der kunne etableres en tilgang, der var i overensstemmelse med fællesskabsretten, suspenderede Kommissionen overtrædelsesproceduren.
In any case, Members of this House have one minute - which I am strict about - to use responsibly in whichever manner they feel is appropriate.
Det man dat, der blev tildelt i 1996, omfattede imidlertid ikke spørgsmål om markedsadgang såsom trafikrettigheder og-kapacitet, som simpelthen eraf vital betydning for en hver succesrig omfattende luftfartsaftale.
Since you have used that minute for points of order, obviously you cannot use it for a supplementary question, be cause at 7.00 p.m. we shall be suspending the sitting.
Og jeg vil heller ikke acceptere de forskellige beskrivelser af varetagelsen af sagerne i Frankrig.
Subject: Transport links in the Öresund region
I marts i år afgav Kommissionen derfor be grundede udtalelser til alle de pågældende otte medlems stater.
Does the Commission think that this is a good idea and, if so, what is it prepared to do to facilitate such a transfer to rail?
Som det ærede medlem vil vide fra andre parlamentsforhandlinger, som han har overværet, er Kommissionens synspunkt og dens indsats i fuld overensstemmelse med vores pligt til at værne om fællesskabsretten.
Kinnock, Member of the Commission. - In view of the shortage of time I am tempted just to say 'yes', but I think the honourable Member would like more detail than that.
Derfor jo før vi får bemyndigelse til at forhandle bredt Jo bedre vil det være for hele Fællesskabet.
Kinnock, Member of the Commission. - As the honourable Member points out in his question, studies into'the feasibility of building a tunnel connecting Helsingør in Denmark and Helsingborg in Sweden have received support under the European Union's INTERREG Ha pro gramme.
Konrad (PPE). - (DE) Hr. formand, mine damer og her rer, jeg synes, det er meget fornuftigt, at der i spørgetiden også kan stilles et tillægsspørgsmål.
Andersson (PSE). - (SV) I would like to thank the Com missioner for the answer.
Også jeg benytter mig meget ofte af det, men det, vi netop har oplevet i for bindelse med de sidste spørgsmål, er jo den omstændighed, at der ikke blev stillet tillægsspørgsmål, men - med al respekt - udvekslet venligheder, hvad der jo måske er ganske positivt for stemningen, men dårligt for f.eks. mig, da jeg nu slet ikke får lejlighed til at stille mit spørgsmål, fordi mødet er forbi om lidt. Jeg vil gerne anmode Dem, hr. formand, om at lede mødet med en lidt fastere hånd.
I would also like to say thank you for the resources the Commission contributed to wards making the study; it shows that the costs for this tunnel between two countries are less than the costs for communications on land on the Swedish side and also on the Danish side as regards the link by bridge between Malmö and Copenhagen.
Camisón Asensio (PPE). - (ES) På dette område, hr. kommissær, må jeg indrømme, at De udviseret stort mod.
Theorin (PSE). - (SV) I am grateful for the 'yes' answer, as that is most important of all.
Og selvom det kan se ud, som om De står alene over for faren - ligesom Gary Cooper - tror jeg det ikke, for jeg vil forsikre Dem om, at mange europæere støtter Dem og tak ker for Deres indsats for at konsolidere vores fællesmarked. ked.
As the Commissioner is well aware, the problem today is that the railway cannot quite compete pricewise, due to a very peculiar system, with each country setting its own prices.
Resultatet, hvis ikke det bliver ændret, ville være diskrimination og konkurrenceforvridning, som ville medføre, at Den Europæiske Unions bestemmelser blev virkningsløse, og at den europæiske lovgivning blev overtrådt.
I can very easily understand that decisions are required by thé Swedish as well as the Danish governments before the Commission will be able to give further financial assist ance, but I would like to put the following question: supposing the Swedish and Danish governments were to agree to build such a link, might the EU then assist in the same way as in the matter of the link between Malmö and Copenhagen?
Formanden. - Hr. Konrad, jeg beundrer Deres evne til at kunne skelne mellem spørgsmål, høflighedsfraser og kommentarer. Det er jeg ikke i stand til, og jeg forstår, at denne forsamlings medlemmer regner med et minut - og at formanden meddeler dette minut strengt - og at de kan disponere over tiden, som de ønsker det.
Today 50-70 % of the railway wagons go empty, at the same time as these large transport companies would like to double their capacity on the railway.
Derudover ville disse »open skies-aftaler« ikke gøre det muligt at sikre, at den uligevægt, der ville opstå mellem de nationale markeder og de store virksomheder, der ville komme hertil fra USA, ville blive fjernet uden nogen gen gældelse overhovedet.
It would make me very happy if in some way we could give them the reply that in the near future a concrete initiative may be taken by the EU to help these transport companies which do want to transport their goods by rail.
Spørgsmål nr. 50 af Jan Andersson (H-0418/98):
Kinnock, Neil. -1 will send a full reply in writing to the honourable lady, but I am grateful for her close interest.
Derfor beder jeg Dem indtrængende om, hr. kommissær, at De fortsætter med at kæmpe for denne sag.
Every pro posal obviously has to be studied very closely and thoroughly on its merits.
Hr. Kinnock, De har nok set, at De ikke er alene, selvom der ikke er mange til stede i parlamentssalen.
Ladies and gentlemen, we still have two minutes left be fore 7.00 p.m.
I hvert fald kan De, som hr. Camisón har sagt, regne med vores støtte i denne sag; jeg beder Dem besvare hans tillægsspørgsmål. mål.
Taking advantage of Mr Kinnock once again, I propose that he replies to one last question.
Da begge byer ligger i en tætbefolket region, hvor det regionale samarbejde mellem begge lande i regionen er ved at blive udviklet på en række områder, er det afgørende, at der etableres en tunnel forbindelse.
That would work to the advantage of competitiveness, employment and a sustainable environment throughout the Union.
En forbedret transportinfrastruktur ville uden tvivl fremme samarbejdet i regionen.
When I send her the documents I am sure she will be interested enough to want to set them to music -they are real poetry.
Men de gode nyheder er, at der derudover er medlemsstater, der mere og mere kan se en fælles og individuel fordel ved at forhandle som et fællesskab med USA.
There are several major European firms currently transporting goods by road which would like to trans
