EU's medlemslande har forsøgt at nå frem til en fælles fortolkning af Genevekonventionen.
Subject: Registration of EU citizens visiting another Member State
Den 4. april 1996 vedtog man en fælles holdning om en harmoniseret for tolkning af flygtningedefinitionen i Geneve-konventionens artikel 1. I denne aftale kommer man imidlertid hverken ind på spørgsmålet om kønsrelateret forfølgelse eller spørgsmålet om seksuel mishandling.
Gradin. - (SV) As I said in my reply, I agree with the questioner that these things should not occur, but we must remember that it is the national authorities who bear re sponsibility for ensuring that their police forces and government departments behave in a decent fashion when de porting individuals from their territory.
Det er beklageligt, og der er al mulig grund til at tage dette spørgsmål op til fornyet overvejelse.
I assume that countries are capable of handling these matters them selves.
Hvad angår de problemer, som opstår ved omorganiseringen af konkurrencen, så opgøres disse i øjeblikket. Det kan jeg ikke besvare detaljeret endnu.
Are EU Member States entitled to require hotels and guest houses to demand that visiting EU citizens provide exhaustive details of their travel documentation (including type of travel document, when and where issued, expiry date and document number) as a condition of their stay?
Desværre er jeg bange for, at størstedelen af deltagerne skal ofre sig en gang til. Det er derfor, det skete snyd er så beklageligt.
Are the authorities in Member States permitted to fine proprietors of establishments who fail to record such information from guests?
For deres rettigheder er der alligevel vigtigt, at snydet ikke gavnede nogen, og at alle i den nye konkurrence med sikkerhed er ligestillet.
Does the Commission agree that this practice, which I un derstand exists in Austria, makes a mockery of the principle of free movement, and what action will the Commission take to end this procedure?
Formanden. - Spørgsmål nr. 33 af Angela Sierra González (H-0912/98):
As well as welcoming Mr Oreja, I would like to thank him for battling against the elements to get here.
Det kan f.eks. dreje sig om fortvivlende tilfælde, hvor der af rent humanitære årsager findes vægtige grunde til at lade nogen blive.
McKenna (V). - This is not just to do with the fact of people being denied the right to asylum, but it has to do with how they are treated afterwards.
Det er i dag helt op til vores medlemsstater selv at fastsætte betingelserne for en sådan beskyttelse, og praksis varierer meget.
It is completely un acceptable that a person, even if denied asylum, should be treated worse than an animal would be treated.
Spørgsmålet står på Ministerrådets arbejdsprogram.
Countries - particularly Belgium - are in breach of human rights standards.
I foråret startede man på en kortlægning af regler og praksis i de forskellige lande.
Surely some measures have to be taken against those countries that do this. It is not just Belgium.
En første analyse er nu færdig og udgør grundlaget for det vi dere arbejde.
The treatment of people seeking asylum in all EU Member States is absolutely appalling.
Der udføres desuden et tilsvarende arbejde i Parlamentets Udvalg om Borgerlige Frihedsrettigheder og Indre Anliggender.
They are not treated like human beings; they are not treated like or dinary people.
Jeg ser frem til at blive underrettet om resultatet af dette arbejde.
There should be proper codes of conduct and proper measures brought in to ensure that this kind of thing cannot happen.
Semira Adamu havde søgt asyl i Belgien, fordi hun var tvunget til at gifte sig med en 65-årig polygamist.
Gradin. - As I said, I am as sorry as you are that this girl has been handled as she has.
Er det ikke Kommissionens opfattelse, at seksuelt betonet mishandling bør være et af kriterierne for at opnå asyl i EU's flygtningepolitik?
But it is the responsibility of Belgium to look after their policemen's behaviour when they send a person out of the country.
Fru Gradin Jeg byder Dem velkommen og beder Dem besvare fru Sierra González' spørgsmål.
This is something I expect every country to be able to take care of.
Gradin, medlem af Kommissionen. - (SV) Jeg deler den sorg og den bevægelse, som mange mennesker føler i for bindelse med omstændighederne ved Semira Adamus død.
Oreja Aguirre, Member of the Commission. - (ES) Current Community law on the free movement of the Union's citizens allows Member States to request that they are in formed of the presence of nationals of other Member States in their country.
De belgiske myndigheder er nu i færd med at udrede, præcist hvordan det gik til.
In some countries, EU citizens staying only for a short while have to declare their arrival to the administrative authorities or the local police.
Uanset hvad forklaringen er, så må noget sådant bare ikke ske. Kommissionen kan ikke kommentere selve håndteringen af Semira Adamus sag.
In or der to make this easier, some Member States allow citizens of other countries to declare their arrival through forms completed in hotels, campsites or guest houses and a copy of this is sent to the local authorities.
Vi har hverken de nødvendige oplysninger eller de nød vendige beføjelser til at udtale os om den pågældende sag.
In this way, citizens do not have to go through any additional procedures and these pre-printed forms contain all the informa tion needed to identify a person, as they include the number, place and date of issue of the passport or identity card.
På baggrund af disse kendsgerninger og af andre dødsfald, der er sket i forbindelse med udvisninger i andre lande i Den Europæiske Union, mener Kommissionen ikke, at det er nødvendigt at revidere disse hårdhændede procedurer, som påberåbes i Schengen-aftalen.
Sornosa Martinez (GUE/NGL). - (ES) Commissioner, in relation to your speech on the Status of Refugees and the Geneva Convention, I would like to ask if the Com mission is considering recommending to the European Union countries that, in all matters relating to political asylum for women, and in matters that exclusively affect women, such as abuse and other gender-linked issues, this political asylum be extended.
Gradin. - (SV) Som jeg sagde i mit svar, giver jeg spørgeren ret i, at noget sådant bare ikke må ske.
The Court of Justice has accepted that these systems for declaring arrivals are compatible with Community law.
Vi må imidlertid huske på, at det er de nationale myndigheders an svar at sørge for, at deres politi og myndigheder optræder anstændigt, når en person udvises fra sit eget land. Jeg går ud fra, at de enkelte lande også selv skal kunne klare dette.
Indeed, according to the Court, this type of system cannot be contrary to the principle of the free movement of per sons if the imposed time limits for declaring an arrival are unreasonable or when the penalties for not fulfilling this obligation are disproportionate to the seriousness of the infringement, for example, if they lead to a prison sen tence or to expulsion.
McKenna (V). - (EN) Det handler ikke kun om, at folk nægtes retten til asyl, det handler også om, hvordan de ef terfølgende behandles.
Watts (PSE). - Thank you Commissioner for your an swer.
Det er helt uacceptabelt, at en per son, selvom denne nægtes asyl, behandles værre end dyr.
The trouble is that it highlight dual or treble stand ards operating throughout the Community.
De grundlæggende regler findes i Genevekonventionen af 1951.
No body wants to change the Geneva Convention but we can complement the Convention.
Ifølge denne skal en person betragtes som flygtning, hvis han eller hun nærer velbegrundet frygt for for følgelse på grund af vedkommendes religion, nationalitet, tilhørsforhold til visse samfundsgrupper eller politisk overbevisning. Vedkommende skal endvidere befinde sig uden for det land, hvor han eller hun har sit statsborger skab, og ikke ville eller kunne benytte sig af sit lands beskyttelse. skyttelse.
We could do this as we have proposed in other areas in the Union such as when we are talking about persecution of third parties, or about refugees staying for a shorter time.
Ud over at jeg vil byde Dem velkommen, hr. Marcelino Oreja, vil jeg også takke Dem for den store indsats, De har gjort for at kæmpe imod elementerne.
Does the Commission intend to support this initiative to gain explicit recognition for this centuries-old tradition of such great artistic and cultural importance?
Jeg takker Dem derfor for Deres fremmøde og beder Dem besvare hr. Watts' spørgsmål.
I give the floor to Mr Oreja to answer Mr Vallvé's question. tion.
den kendsgerning, at menneskerettigheder nu medtages i traktaterne.
these rather ludicrous and petty-minded bureaucratic re strictions are imposed.
Lande - særligt Belgien - overtræder menneskerettighedsstandarderne.
The citizens of Europe demand an answer from the Commission as to why these dual stand ards are applied.
Der træffes forhåbentlig for anstaltninger mod de lande, der gør dette.
If it is in the interests of security or in formation on visitors, why is the information not required from every visitor?
Det er ikke kun Belgien.
It is clearly not.
Behandlingen af mennesker, der søger asyl i alle EU-medlemsstater, er i allerhøjeste grad forfærdende.
Therefore the information is not effective and, as the Commissioner implied, there should be an agreement between Member States to try to remove this artificial barrier to free movement.
De behandles ikke som mennesker; de behandles ikke som ganske almindelige mennesker.
Oreja Aguirre, Member of the Commission. - (ES) The European Commission is aware of the importance and significance of the Elche Mystery Play (Misteri d'Elx) in the history of European religious and musical theatre.
Gradin. - (EN) Som jeg sagde, beklager jeg lige så dybt som jer, at denne pige blev behandlet, som hun gjorde.
Oreja Aguirre. - (ES) As Mr Watts well knows, the same system does not exist in all Member States.
Men det er Belgiens ansvar at holde øje med politiets op førsel, når de udviser en person af landet.
That is to say that, in practice, situations vary considerably.
Dette er noget, jeg forventer, at hvert land er i stand til at tage sig af.
Nor is there a police-controlled registration system operating in hotels.
Oreja Aguirre, medlem af Kommissionen. - (ES) Den gældende fællesskabsret vedrørende den fri bevægelighed for borgere i Unionen giver medlemsstaterne mulig hed for at kræve, at andre statsborgere giver meddelelse om deres tilstedeværelse i landet.
Such systems do exist in the other Member States. And, in the group of countries with no such system, there are certain countries that have a general system for declaring arrivals that is equally applied to EU citizens.
I nogle stater skal bor gere fra Unionen, som er på et kort ophold, fremlægge en ankomsterklæring for de administrative myndigheder el ler det lokale politi.
Other countries, if they have not devised a system for the declaration of arrivals for EU citizens, have instead established a specific registration system in hotels and public accommodation that comes under the general duties of the police.
For at forenkle dette accepterer nogle stater, at borgere fra andre lande afgiver denne erklæring ved at sende en kopi af kortet for ophold på hoteller, campingpladser eller pensioner til de lokale myndigheder.
Within the framework of its powers, the Community does not have any formal or material possibilities, as far as Ar ticle 128 of the Treaty is concerned, that allow it to inter vene in the procedure of naming World Heritage events.
På denne måde undgås det, at borgerne skal gennemgå flere formaliteter, og disse kort, som er fortrykte, indeholder de oplysninger, der er nødvendige for at identificere personerne - herunder nummer, tid og sted for udstedelsen af identifikationsdokumentet eller passet.
Nonetheless, the Commission hopes that the authorities in Elche are successful in their bid, as this would give an ex tremely important European cultural event the world wide status it deserves.
Domstolen har anerkendt, at ordningerne med ankomsterklæringer er forenelige med fællesskabsretten.
I believe that we should try to see the distinctive elements that exist in the varied cultures of the people and, un doubtedly, one of them is this Elche Mystery Play, which also has a universal dimension.
Ifølge Domstolen kan en ordning af en sådan art ikke være i modstrid med princippet om fri bevægelighed for personer, hvis fristerne for at afgive erklæring ikke er fornuftige, eller når straffen for manglende opfyldelse af denne forpligtelse er ude af proportion med overtrædelsens al vor, f.eks. hvis den medfører fængselsstraf eller udvisning. ning.
In other words, it is a locally acclaimed event but, at the same time, it has world wide significance and it is for this reason that we believe it deserves to be recognised as a World Heritage event.
Gradin. - (EN) Som I ved, har det i mange år været diskuteret, om vi skulle udvide'definitionen af en persons status som politisk flygtning.
Mr Vallvé can rest assured that, if consulted, the Commission will stress the importance the Elche Mystery Play de serves.
Det har ikke været en succes.
Consequently, there is no single system.
Ingen ønsker at ændre Geneve-konventionen, men vi kan supplere den.
Perhaps what Mr Watt is asking is if these systems should be harmonised in the future, that is, if the free movement of persons encourages us to establish an identical system in all the Member States.
Vi kunne gøre det, som vi har foreslået inden for andre områder i Unionen, f.eks. når vi taler om forfølgelse af tredjemand eller om flygtninge, der bliver i en kortere periode.
In other words, these limits cannot be dis proportionate to the seriousness of the infringement if, as I said earlier, they lead, for example, to a prison sentence or expulsion.
Spørgsmål til hr. Oreja Aguirre Formanden. - Spørgsmål nr. 34 af Mark Watts (H-0864/98): :
President. - Question No 35 by Joan Vailvé (H-0865/98)
Om: Registrering af EU-borgere på besøg i en anden medlemsstat
Subject: Inclusion of the Misteri d'Elx on the World Heritage List
Det forholder sig blot sådan, at når en forretningsmand eller ferierejsende tager på hotel, pålægges disse noget latterlige og smålige bureaukratiske restriktioner.
I did not doubt his sensitivity in recognising these cultural events, which have old traditions - the Misted d'Elx dates back to the end of the 14th century - and which have continued up until today.
Borgerne i Europa afkræver Kommissionen et svar på, hvorfor disse dobbelte standarder anvendes.
This is, in some way, proof of the multi-culturalism inherent to Europe.
Hvis det er af hensyn til sikkerhed eller oplysninger om besøgende, hvorfor bliver hver besøgende så ikke afkrævet oplysninger?
For example, the Misteri d'EL· is a play in Catalan which takes place every year during these holidays.
Derfor er oplysningerne ikke brugbare, og som kommissæren antydede, bør der være en aftale mellem medlemsstaterne om at forsøge at fjerne denne kunstige hindring for den frie bevægelighed. hed.
Therefore, I would like to thank the Commissioner for his kind words and I am sure that the local authorities in Elche will take the necessary steps to ensure that this play receives the recognition it deserves from UNESCO, as European heritage to be shown to the whole world.
Oreja Aguirre. - (ES) Som hr. Watts udmærket ved, fin des der ikke den samme ordning i alle landene, der er altså forskellig praksis.
The Misteri o Festa d'Elx (Mystery Play or Feast of Elche) has been put forward for inclusion on UNESCO's World Heritage List.
Har EU's medlemsstater ret til at kræve af hoteller og overnatningssteder, at de skal anmode rejsende EU-borgere om at give udtømmende detaljer om deres rejsedokumentation (herunder typen af rejsedokument, udstedelsestidspunkt og-sted, udløbsdato og dokumentnummer) som en betingelse for deres ophold?
The Festa, whose origins date back to the late 14th century, is staged in the city of Elx (Elche) on 14 and 15 August each year to commemorate the Feast of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary.
Har medlemsstaternes myndigheder tilladelse til at idømme bøder til de hotelejere, der ikke indberetter sådanne op lysninger fra deres gæster?
It is the sole theatrical representation of mediaeval origin of its kind to have survived in Eu rope.
Oreja Aguirre jeg har haft det privilegium at have overværet mysteriespillet i Elx, der er en strålende begivenhed og et bevis på betydningen af noget, som jeg mener, er meget vigtigt: et folks kulturelle identitet.
Sornosa.Martinez (GUE/NGL). - (ES) Commissioner, if you know the Misteri d'Elx or if you have seen it, then you know how spectacular and unusual it is to see the As sumption of the Virgin Mary portrayed in this work of Eu ropean art and culture.
anvendes ens for Unionens borgere, og der er andre, som ikke har et system med ankomsterklæring for unionsborgerne, men i stedet for har et særligt registreringssystem på hoteller og offentlig indlogering, som er en del af politiets almindelige aktiviteter.
I therefore believe that all this points to one thing - and it is important to highlight it -, namely, that Eu rope's wealth stems from the differences in the varied cultures which exist in Europe. The Commission's role will probably be to basically determine what the different Eu ropean cultures have in common, but beginning with the distinguishing features of each of the cultures.
Jeg mener netop, at vi skal forsøge i den europæiske kul tur at se de adskillende elementer, der findes i de forskel lige befolkningers kultur, og et af dem er uden tvivl dette mysteriespil i Elx, som samtidig har en universel dimension.
Yet, whilst acknowledging how important it is that this celebration be included on the World Heritage list by UNESCO, and as you are here today, I wanted to take this opportunity to put a request to you, Is there any possibility, apart from this recognition, which is extraordinary in itself, and within the Commission's powers - although I know that the Commission cannot do anything -, that there might be a budget heading that could be used to help this group of artists, not as part of the World Heritage procedure but as a'different category, if possible?
Det er altså en lokal begivenhed, men samtidig er det universelt, og derfor mener vi, at det fortjener at blive an erkendt som en del af menneskehedens kulturarv.
These peo ple do not of course do this exclusively, but they dedicate their free time to keeping this marvellous European cultural display alive.
Hr. Vallvé kan være sikker på, at Kommissionen, hvis den bliver rådspurgt, vil lægge vægt på den betydning, som mysteriespillet i Elx har.
Initiatives such as those we have been discussing this afternoon will, of course, come under this framework agreement.
Der er altså ikke en fælles ordning.
President. - Thank you, Mr Oreja.
Det vigtigste er det, som Domstolen indtil nu har bestemt, nemlig at ankomsterklæringsordningerne er forenelige med fællesskabsret ten.
Your respect for speed and rapidity has been fully noted and we thank you for be ing here with us today.
Det, hr. Watts måske spørger om, er, om der i fremtiden bør være den samme ordning i alle staterne.
We have reached the end of the questions for Mr Oreja and so we wish him farewell and a safe but not too speedy journey back.
Det er et spørgsmål, der flyder.
Questions to Mr Pinheiro
Formanden. - Spørgsmål nr. 35 af Joan Vallvé (H-0865/98):
President. - Question No 36 by Patricia McKenna (H-0833/98)
Om: Mysteriespillet i Elx som en del af verdens kul turarv
Subject: The Hois people of the Chagos Archipelago
Vallvé (ELDR). - (ES) Jeg vil blot takke for kommissærens ord.
Oreja Aguirre. - (ES) Mrs Sornosa, I obviously share your interest in the issue you have raised and there is one possible option.
Unesco hár foreslået, at mysteriespillet eller festen i Elx udnævnes til at være en del af menneskehedens kulturarv.
There fore, why not initiate the procedure?
Festen stammer fra slutningen af det 14. år hundrede og afholdes hvert år i byen Elx den 14. og 15. august til minde om Mariæ himmelfart.
I call on you, and all those interested in this matter, to take the appropriate steps to take this to the Commission. And I assure you that I will follow this matter very closely.
Det er den eneste opførelse af middelalderligt teater af denne art, der har overlevet i Europa.
But I would point out that I do not make the final decision; a committee de cides.
Har Kommissionen i lyset af mysteriespillets store kunstneriske og kulturelle værdi til hensigt at støtte dette initiativ, der er en tydelig anerkendelse af denne århundrede gamle tradition?
Nonetheless, the word from the Commission, through me - if my colleagues permit it - is that I think that the Elche Mystery Play will be recognised as a highprofile project.
Sornosa Martínez (GUE/NGL). - (ES) Hr. kommissær, hvis De kender mysteriespillet i Elx, hvis De har set det, ved De allerede, hvor imponerende og enestående det er at se Mariæ himmelfart i dette stykke gengive Europas kunst og kultur.
von Habsburg (PPE). - (DE) Mr President, Commissioner, I am a great admirer of the Elche festivals myself, but in this context I should like to ask you something else, because this issue shows how important culture is to our future.
I hvert fald vil jeg også sige det til dem, som lytter til os her i mødesalen, for jeg eren fast gæst og en fan af denne forestilling.
Since in spirit we are now in Elche, I should also like to refer to the moros y cristianos, in the Provincia de Alicante for example, which are a wonderful piece of popular culture; it might be useful in places like that to encourage people to take more of these initiatives, and the Commission should support them.
Oreja Aguirre, medlem af Kommissionen. - (ES) Europa-Kommissionen er bevidst om vigtigheden og betydningen af mysteriespillet i Elx for det europæiske religiøse teaters og musikteaters historie.
Is the Commission aware that, when it was negotiating its accession to the then EEC, the UK was forcibly removing approximately 2000 indigenous Hois people from the Chagos Archipelago, which is now an over seas territory of the EU called the British Indian Ocean Territory, and that the unstated purpose of the clearance was to lease one of the islands, Diego Garcia, to the USA as a military base?
Og i henhold til proceduren for udnævnelse til menneskehedens kulturarv er det UNESCO's komité for verdenskulturarv, der er det organ, der er ansvarligt for beslutninger på dette område. Som hr. Vallvé ved, ligger initiativet til igangsættelse af UNESCOs procedure hos kommunale og nationale myndigheder, der kan støtte ethvert projekt, som de ønsker skal blive anerkendt som menneskehedens kulturarv.
Has the Commission previously considered the matter, and in any case does it regard these people as citizens of the European Union, even though they are living in forced exile in Mauritius, many living in very poor conditions there -many, indeed, having committed suicide - and despite the fact that a financial settlement was reached with the UK Government some years ago?
Inden for rammerne af sit kompetenceområde har Fælles skabet i henhold til artikel 128 i traktaten hverken for melle eller reelle muligheder for at deltage i proceduren for udnævnelse til menneskehedens kulturarv.
Whether citizens or not, does the Commission believe that these people would have legal rights within the Union, sa displaced occupants of what is Union territory, or, in a sense, as EU refugees?
Men Kom missionen ønsker at give udtryk for sit ønske om, at initiativet fra myndighederne i Elx får en positiv modtagelse, således at en begivenhed, der er af stor betydning for den europæiske kulturarv, får den fortjente opmærksomhed over hele verden.
What does the Commission intend to do to uphold the Treaties in relation to these unfortunate people?
Jeg er selvfølgelig fuldt ud klar over hr. Vallvés følelser omkring dette emne, og jeg deler dem fuldstændig, fordi
I give the floor to Mr Pinheiro to answer Mrs McKenna's question.
