Flynn være ønskværdigt, hvis pensionister, der rejser til andre EU-lande, fik lettere adgang til at gøre krav på de fordele og rabatter, der er til rådighed for pensionister fra det land, de besøger. Beklageligvis ved Kommissionen, at så danne fordele og rabatter ikke altid er frit tilgængelige for statsborgere fra andre stater end den, der tilbyder disse fordele og rabatter.
President the Operational Programme for Local Urban and Rural Development under the subprogramme for the 'Integrated development of designated disadvantaged and other areas') that the programme will be cut short when it has only just got up and running (operational only in 1996)?
I denne forbindelse kan jeg oplyse Dem om, at Kommissionen er i færd med at udarbejde en rapport om den økonomiske, fiskale og investeringspolitiske strategi til Det Europæiske Råd i Wien, der følger efter Det Europæiske Råd i Pörtschach.
Will the Commission make a commitment, given the importance of countering disadvantage through such local community effort, to include such a programme in the new Structural Funds regulations?
Domstolen har behandlet adskillige klager om forskelsbehandling af statsborgere fra andre medlemsstater som modtagere af tjenesteydelser, såsom nedsatte billetpriser eller gratis adgang til museer og andre offentlige bygninger og nedsatte billetpriser ved brug af offentlige trans portmidler.
The construction óf this incinerator contravenes, inter alia, the proximity principle, the precautionary principle, Di rective 80/779/EEC (') on air quality limit values and guide values for sulphur dioxide and suspended par ticulates and Directive 85/337/EEC (2) on the assess ment of the effects of certain public and private projects on the environment.
Domstolen har med hjemmel i artikel 6 om forskelsbehandling, der udøves på grundlag af nationalitet, og artikel 59 om den fri udveksling af tjenesteydelser, konsekvent fordømt forskelsbehandlende praksis.
Does the Commission consider the complaint lodged by the people living nearby to be justified, and if so, what steps will it take?
Hvorledes forholder Kommissionen sig til det spørgsmål, og hvorledes forholder den sig overhovedet til Den Europæiske Centralbanks uafhængighed?
I give the floor to Mrs Wulf-Mathies to answer Mr M c C a rtin's question.
Er der her behov for supplerende sikkerhedsforanstaltninger?
I give the floor to Mrs Wulf-Mathies to answer Mrs Kes-telijn-Sierens's question.
Kommissionen vil fortsat være årvågen, når det gælder om at håndhæve overholdelsen af de grundlæggende principper i fællesskabsretten og vil overalt, hvor det er for nødent, tage sin tilflugt til Domstolen.
Wulf-Mathies, Member of the Commission. - (DE) Mr President, the Commission is currently investigating several complaints relating to the Drogenbos incinerator which this question refers to.
Desuden har Kom missionen i næsten 10 år forhandlet méd medlemsstaterne om indførelse af et EU-kort for personer over 60, som det foreslås i Kommissionens henstilling af 10. maj 1989.
In view of these complaints, the Commission asked the Belgian Government for information at the end of August, and it is currently examining the reply from the relevant Belgian authorities.
Flynn. - (EN) Jeg ligger ikke inde med de nøjagtige en keltheder om det spørgsmål, De refererer til.
Wulf-Mathies, Member of the Commission. — (DE) Mr President, as we see it, the concern of partnership companies mentioned by Mr McCartin is unfounded.
Måske ville det være bedre, hvis min kollega, kommissær de Silguy, besvarede spørgsmålet skriftligt.
It is not the Commission's intention either to introduce reprogramming or to reduce funding.
Jeg vil med glæde viderebringe Deres synspunkt til kommissær de Silguy.
This is particularly important given that it will only be possible to fully disburse the funds allocated to the individual projects in the following year.
Om: Gensidighed i ældres fordele og rabatter inden for EU
It acknowledges the progress that was achieved within the current programme in promoting local socioeconomic development and in compensating for disadvantages, and is open to proposals on ways of promoting local develop ment and, in particular, combating social exclusion in future as well.
For at komme videre med sagen støttede Kommissionen en første forundersøgelse om spørgsmålet i forbindelse med Det Europæiske Ældreår i 1993.
Kestelijn-Sierens (ELDR). - (NL) I am grateful to the Commissioner for her reply, but I should specifically like to know when we can expect a decision from the Com mission.
Kommissionen igangsatte en anden forundersøgelse i 1995, der havde til formål at ajourføre og uddybe den første. Den endelige rapport om denne undersøgelse er modtaget, og eksemplarer af den er givet til medlemmerne af Europa-Parlamentets tværpolitiske gruppe om alderdom.
This is an extremely important problem which needs to be addressed with the utmost urgency, since it concerns an incinerator being built in a densely populated area of one and a half million people where the maximum limits for particulates and cadmium have already been reached.
Rapporten er også blevet forelagt ngo-medlemmerne i kontaktgruppen for ældre.
I would like to press the Commission to investigate this matter with the utmost urgency.
Konklusionerne og henstillingerne i rapporten er endnu ikke undersøgt eller yderligere drøftet med repræsentanter for medlemsstaternes regeringer.
Perhaps Mrs Wulf-Mathies could tell us how long it will take for the Commission to reach a decision?
En af mine vælgere var for nylig i Italien, og da han så, at adgangen til et monument var gratis for pensionister, anmodede han om at få gratis adgang.
One of my concerns is not actually about this year or next year but about the new programme which starts in the year 2000.
Han blev meget chokeret, da personalet fortalte ham, at det kun gjaldt for italienske pensionister.
This did not commence with the present structural funds programme because there was a delay in getting it off the ground, particularly in Ireland.
Evans (PSE). - (EN) Samtidig med, at man godt kan finde nogen grund til optimisme i kommissærens svar, er der også grund til nogen bekymringer.
Wulf-Mathies. - (DE) Mrs Kestelijn-Sierens, we are aware that this is a very sensitive issue.
Dette er et vigtigt spørgsmål om at bygge et Europa for folk, og når folk nægtes rabatter, fordi de ikke er bosat i en bestemt med lemsstat, er dette meget skadeligt for hele Europas image.
This is why we asked the Belgian Government for information, which we received in October.
Kommissæren henviste til Kommissionens 10 år gamle henstilling, men den bliver ikke gennemført lige med det samme.
Please do not expect me to be able to tell you now how long the investigation will take.
Kan Kommissionen oplyse, om der er sket nogen fremskridt efter vedtagelsen af Kommissionens hen stilling af 10. maj 1989 (89/350/EØF (')) om dette spørgsmål?
At the moment people are just learning what it is about, getting their programme off the ground, and now they are concerned that it might not continue after the end of 1999.
Hr. Flynn, De bedes besvare hr. Evans' spørgsmål.
Questions to Mrs Wulf-Mathies President - Question No 47 by John McCartin (H-0945/98) Subject: Local partnership companies in Ireland
Jeg ser ligeledes på et lignende projekt, nemlig et europæ isk kort for unge.
Wulf-Mathies. - (DE) Mr President, I understand the concern.
Da der ikke er noget, der tyder på, at vi ikke om 10 år stadig sidder og behandler spørgsmålet om et kort for personer over 60, kan kommissæren så i det mindste give mig grund til optimisme omkring et europæ isk kort for studerende?
Firstly, it is simply a question of carrying out all appropriations for commitments by the end of 1999, and this means that measures can also still be financed in the year 2000.
') EFTL 144af27.5.1989,s,59.
Secondly, the Commission is generally interested in pro moting local partnerships in the next programming period as well.
Arten, formen og administrationen af det varierer meget fra medlemsstat til med lemsstat. Hele spørgsmålet omkring subsidiaritet og proportionalitet rører på sig, hver gang jeg forsøger at komme videre med sagen.
However, since we attach great importance, in the new proposals for structural reform, to local initiatives and, in particular, to local employment initiatives, I am assuming that continuing to promote similar measures in future as part of a programme will be an important concern for all of us.
Nogle medlemsstater har et kortsystem, andre har ikke noget.
President - Question No 48 by Konstantinos Hatzidakis (H-0973/98)
I nogle med lemsstater er alder alene tilstrækkelig, i andre er det alder kombineret med indkomst eller endog bopæl.
Subject: Defective work in implementation of Greek Community Support Framework
Kommissionen kunne overveje at støtte udviklingen af en webside om de rabatordninger, der findes for ældre bor gere i Unionen. Jeg ved ikke, om De finder dette nyttigt, men det kunne være et første skridt til at komme ud af dødvandet.
According to information which has come to light in Greece, a great many of the projects jointly funded from the Community budget under the Second Com munity Support Framework for Greece, particularly road-building, have been carried out in a slipshod manner and, in general, do not meet Community specifications. ifications.
Der er en masse kommercialisering og privatisering, navnlig inden for transportområdet, og en stor del af ansvaret lig ger i hænderne på private og halvprivate organer.
Only then will it be possible to identify the quality defects for each specific project, to determine who is re sponsible and, above all, to proceed at the same time ac cording to three groupings.
Så det er ikke gået godt, og jeg finder det yderst vanskeligt at nå et punkt, hvor vi kan samordne hele systemet.
The report notes that for all categories of road-building projects sub jected to checks, between 26% and 95 % of the work was defective.
Jeg ville gerne tro, at det kunne ske, men, som De siger, har det vist sig umuligt indtil nu, og jeg nærer ikke nogen store håb for den umiddelbare fremtid.
This is a particularly serious matter both in terms of the high percentage of defective work and the fact that such work is largely responsible for the high number of accidents and deaths on the roads in Greece.
Det forlyder, at 1999 på medlemsstaternes opfordring er blevet aflyst som år til bekæmpelse af vold mod kvinder.
The Commission has no information that would allow it to make a comparative assessment of quality problems in the individual Member States.
Truscott (PSE). - (EN) Jeg vil gerne takke kommissæren for hans svar på hr. Evans' spørgsmål.
However, the Commission is in favour of increasing independent quality control in Greece, and it is in close contact with the Greek authorities.
Jeg håber helt be stemt, at Kommissionen vil overveje at fremsætte detalje rede forslag om et kort for personer over 60 inden for en overskuelig fremtid, selv til trods for vanskelighederne.
It shall examine the results of the second ESPEL in spection and shall follow closely further developments to repair project defects with those responsible.
Kan Kommissionen i betragtning af, at Parlamentet selv i en beslutning i 1997 har slået til lyd for at gøre 1999 til europæisk år til bekæmpelse af vold mod . kvinder, oplyse, hvorfor den både finansielt og orga nisatorisk var utilstrækkelig forberedt på at gennem føre dette projekt?
Given that these projects are carried out with Community funding, will the Commission say whether it con siders such a high percentage of defects to be normal in comparison with the situation in other Member States?
Fru Wulf-Mathies, vi byder Dem velkommen og beder Dem besvare fru Bernie Malones spørgsmål.
Where does responsibility for this situation lie and what does the Commission intend to do to put an end to this unacceptable state of affairs?
Flynn. - (EN) Jeg vil blot gerne sige, at Kommissionen allerede har udtrykt sine intentioner i det sociale handlingsprogram for perioden 1998-2000 om at indlede en debat om anvendelsen af den fremtidige artikel 13.
Wulf-Mathies, Member of the Commission. - (DE) Mr President, Mr Hatzidakis, according to existing Community law, responsibility for carrying out projects cofi-. nanced by the Structural Funds lies exclusively with the Member States.
Artikel 13 sørger for de foranstaltninger, der skal til for at be kæmpe forskelsbehandling på grund af køn, race og et nisk oprindelse, religion, tro, handicap, alder eller seksuel orientering.
In other words, according to existing law, the Member States must guarantee the required quality.
Derfor ser vi på muligheden for at indføre en lovgivning herom, så snart traktaten er ratificeret.
Monitoring of these projects is therefore subject to national legislation.
Wulf-Mathies, medlem af Kommissionen. - (DE) Hr. formand, fru Bernie Malone, Parlamentet fremsatte sit ønske om få et europæisk år til bekæmpelse af vold mod kvinder ret sent, så Kommissionen ikke mere havde tid til at •fremsætte et formelt forslag, sikre en passende finan siering og planlægge aktiviteterne omhyggeligt.
When the Community Support Frame work for Greece was approved for 1994 to 1999, the Greek Government assured the Commission that it would take measures to put right the serious deficiencies occur ring in the past in connection with the execution of public works.
Kom missionen har bestræbt sig på alligevel at tage hensyn til Parlamentets ønske, idet den har foreslået en kampagne med emnet »vold mod kvinder«.
This was particularly impartant for the Commission given the significant increase in the number of new projects.
Jeg har lige bebudet vores intention i henhold til program met om at fremsætte en meddelelse om de spørgsmål, De har nævnt, som en del af vores bidrag til næste års FN-år.
Hatzidakis (PPE). - (EL) Mr President, I do not know what to begin with because the subject is far too big to be covered in just one minute.
Fra den 1. til den 4. december finder en første konference sted under østrigsk formandskab om politiets rolle i be kæmpelsen af vold mod kvinder, navnlig imod indvandrerkvinder. Dette arrangement finansieres delvis af Daphne-programmet.
I have the published figures for the second quarter from the report by the Special Quality Control Council, which show that projects not conforming to specifications are found in a very high proportion: concrete materials of poor quality 77 %, substrate material of poor quality 91 %, foundation materials of poor quality 95 %, and so on.
Endnu en vigtig konference, som Kommissionen arrangerer i samarbejde med det tyske formandskab, finder sted til næste forår.
To a written question I submitted to you a while ago about the Patras-Athens-Thessaloniki project, you answered that the work had not been put right even though you had asked for that to be done, and that the de lay was worrying.
På den skal der bl.a. fremlægges en rapport med en analyse af medlems staternes statistikker desangående.
So I want you to tell me what action you intend to take with the Greek Government, and tell me also, since you say you have comparative figures, what is happening elsewhere.
Denne rapport bliver for tiden udarbejdet i fællesskab af eksperter fra samtlige medlemsstater og den europæiske kvindelobby.
Are there such major problems of the order of 95 % in other countries?
Også dette arbejde finansieres af Daphne-programmet.
Sincerely, I ask you for a more specific answer because this is an issue of the first priority for my country.
Den konference, der afslutter kampagnen, arrangeres i samarbejde med det finske formandskab.
One of the measures included the appointment of an independent special adviser for quality control for projects cofinancée! by the Community.
Kommissionen har desuden planer om en udstilling og flere seminarer.
In fact, the first quarterly report of this body known as ESPEL establishes that there is still a problem of quality.
White (PSE). - (EN) Hr. Flynn, hvis De holder vejret alt for længe, kan De komme til skade, og så kan det være De får brug for sundhedskortet.
Wulf-Mathies. - (DE) Mr President, Mr Hatzidakis, I do not have any figures from other Member States, but of
Dette var kun muligt, fordi der på forskellig måde blev tilvejebragt økonomiske mid ler, og ved hjælp af et rentefrit lån.
Wulf-Mathies take appropriate action at the meeting of the monitoring committee on 19 November.
Kan Kommissionen oplyse, hvilken støtte - om nogen overhovedet - der er til rådighed på EU-plan til ind køb af computere og/eller indretning af computerrum i grundskoler og på gymnasier?
President - Question No 49 by Glenys Kinnock(H-0980/98) Subject: Timetable for Structural Fund negotiations
Derudover vil den udarbejde og distribuere informationsmateriale, der først og fremmest skal anvendes i forebyggende øjemed. Medlemsstaterne opfordres til i deres eget land at gennemføre arrangementer, som henvender sig både til den brede offentlighed og til ikkestatslige organisationer.
Will the Commission give a breakdown of the timetable for the remaining negotiations concerning the Structural Fund Regulations and the likely period of programme negotiations between the Commission and Member States for Objective 1 and Objective 2?
Kommissionen har endvidere tilskyndet til, at der i medlemsstaterne indledes et Eurobarometerrundspørge om dette emne.
course you know that for years we have been busy hurrying along improvements to the tendering procedures for public procurement.
Til den afsluttende konference skal der endvidere udarbejdes en rapport, som sammenfatter alle de aktioner, der er blevet gennemført eller indledt under kampagnen i. medlemsstaterne. Det ville være rart, hvis også ansøgerlandene ville deltage i denne kampagne.
And you also know that the reform of public procurement has necessitated legislative changes that must now also be brought through Parliament by a democratic procedure.
Fru Wulf-Mathies, De bedes besvare hr. Collins' spørgs mål.
However, we are now well on the way to obtaining really secure data.
Malone (PSE). - (EN) Jeg takker kommissæren for hans svar.
I give the floor to Mrs Wulf-Mathies to answer Mrs Kinnock's question.
Wulf-Mathies, medlem af Kommissionen. - (DE) Hr. formand, hr. Collins, Kommissionen deltager intensivt i at forbedre europæiske skolers adgang til nye informationsteknologier.
Trakatellis (PPE). - (EL) Mr President, Commissioner, I would first like to hear from you which exactly are the projects we are discussing, who are the contractors, and who are those responsible in the various services of the Greek State for monitoring these projects.
Jeg stiller normalt ikke spørgsmål, for jeg kan ikke lide at spilde tid, men jeg har meget stærke følelser for denne sag. Jeg er skuffet over, at vi ikke har været i stand til at gøre yderligere fremskridt.
Secondly, please tell me what procedures have been set in motion for penal sanctions on the grounds of negligence, because in a written answer you gave me, you said that penalties would be imposed but I have heard of no such procedure taking place.
Det håber jeg ikke, er tilfældet her.
Do you know anything about that?
Deres planer er meget rosværdige, og kampagnen og de argumenter, De har fremsat, er meget gode.
Thirdly, if those in stances of negligence, which are very major, happen to be real, will the return of the funds be demanded?
Men vi må også tage kampagnen ud til skolerne, for uddannelses-, mæssigt input er meget vigtigt.
In other words, is it possible that my country will have to return money to the European Union and the Commission?
For det andet: Arbejdsgruppen »Undervisningssoftware og multimedia« sammenfatter de didaktiske aktiviteter fra otte forskellige fællesskabsprogrammer.
Wulf-Mathies, Member of the Commission. - (DE) Mr President, I should like to point out to Mrs Kinnock that the timetable for the negotiations on structural intervention in the new programming period depends of course mainly on when the new Structural Fund Regulations are adopted.
I den sam menhæng blev der i december 1996 offentliggjort en fælles indkaldelse af forslag til »didaktiske multimedier«, hvori navnlig Sokrates, Leonardo da Vinci-, TEN-og tre forskningsprogrammer deltog.
The Cardiff European Council has declared in this connection that political agreement on the whole package is to be achieved by March 1999 at the latest.
Af de 46 projekter, der blev udvalgt, skal projektet European Schoolnet nævnes, hvori medlemsstaternes undervisningsministerier deltager.
The Commission was pleased to note that the German Government intends to keep to the Cardiff timetable during its Presidency of the Council, as stated by the German Chancellor, Mr Schröder, in his inaugural speech on 10 October.
Sokrates tager sigte på det europæiske samarbejde på uddannelsesområdet og fremmer samarbejdet om disse emner, navnlig inden for rammerne af aktionen åben un dervisning og fjernundervisning.
If this is the case, Parliament could agree, in particular, to the proposal for a Structural Fund Regulation with general terms and conditions by the end of the current legislative period.
I Fællesskabet finansieres anskaffelsen af edb-materiel til skoler, navnlig computere, i henhold til subsidiaritetsprincippet via medlemsstaternes eller kommunernes bud getter.
According to the Commission's proposal, the list of Ob jective 1 areas is to be drawn up immediately after the regulation has been adopted.
De områder, der kan få støtte fra strukturfondene, får ekstra midler fra de forskellige strukturfonde, som del vis har finansieret anskaffelsen af computere til erhvervsskoler og videreuddannelsesinstitutioner også i Irland.
If we take into account the period of time that is necessary for drawing up the re gional development plans and negotiating the Community support frameworks, the Commission's decisions on the distribution of the funds under Objective 1 could therefore be issued in the first quarter of the year 2000.
Wulf-Mathies. - (DE) Hr. formand, i første omgang var problemet simpelthen, at vi skal overholde bestemte fri ster, når Rådet skal træffe sådanne afgørelser, og derfor kom vi for sent.
Wulf-Mathies. - (DÈ) Mr President, I should gladly like to try that.
Der er her tale om et program, som skal løbe fra 2000 til 2004, og hvor det bestemt vil være for nuftigt også at inddrage skolerne.
Please appreciate that I do not wish to prejudge the meet ing of the monitoring committee here today.
De ved jo, at en del af denne meddelelse og af handlingsprogrammet er at gøre folk bevidste om problemet.
However, I have made it clear what the consequences are if defects can definitely be proved.
Formanden. - Spørgsmål nr. 45 af Gerard Collins (H-1029/98):
There is not only the principle of subsidiarity, but also the need to separate the powers.
Om: EU-støtte til indkøb af computere i skolerne
But I have to know the facts first before I start quoting criminal law here.
Spørgsmål nr. 46 af Marie-Paule Kestelijn-Sierens (H-0968/98):
In the third quarter of the year 2000, the Commission could draw up the plans for the Objective 2 programme and issue the decisions on the distribution of the funds.
I Shanagolden Primary School i Limerick i Irland er der netop åbnet et nyt computerrum med otte computere, som vil gøre det muligt for lærerne at arbejde
You may rest assured that the Commission has the greatest in terest in urging alf those concerned to fulfil their specific obligations now, so that the areas which need our assist ance do not suffer as a result of the present standstill in the decisionmaking process.
Om: Tilladelse til forbrændingsanlæg i Drogenbos i modstrid med europæisk lovgivning
In this respect, I now consider this discussion to be a fur ther impetus for the representatives of the Commission to
Formanden bindelse med underprogrammet for integreret udvikling af angiveligt ugunstigt stillede områder og andre områder) er nervøse for, at programmet vil blive skåret ned, nu hvor det netop er blevet sat i gang (har kun fungeret siden 1996)?
No 4-528/91 ropean Parliament has called for by a large majority -and what type of measures the Commission considers to be worth supporting in the context of promoting the regions bordering on the countries of Central and Eastern Europe?
