Om fanget af støtte til ECHO beløber sig i øjeblikket til ECU 3,8 millioner om året.
This is not Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom or Italy against France.
Pettinari (GUE/NGL). - (IT) Hr. formand, den valgte præsident Kabbahs tilbagekomst til Sierra Leone er en positiv begivenhed af stor betydning.
The future is, amongst other things, the European Nations' Cup in 2000, organized by Belgium and the Netherlands.
Men det vil være for tidligt at mene, at proble
What is most important, however, is that we do not allow discrimination.
B4-0365/98 af Hory for Gruppen Europæisk Radikal Alliance om fordelingssystemet for billetter til VM-fodbold i Frankrig;
Pettinari is pay about £600 a time through one of those all-inclusive travel packages, exactly the thing we were trying to stop.
Den 10. februar afsatte Kommissionen ECU 1 900 000 til finansiering af programmerne »sæd og værktøj« for at give den lokale befolkning mulighed for at opnå en tilstrækkelig høst i løbet af de kommende måneder.
This is the case we have before us, because it is unacceptable that you need to buy a whole package, including travel, accommodation and tourist services just to be able to get a ticket.
- B4-0373/98 af Roth med flere for Gruppen De Grønne i Europa-Parlament om VM-fodbold i FrankrigFord (PSE). - (EN) Hr. formand, vi ved, at kommissæren har haft møder med det franske fodboldforbund.
Although we believe that the major sports events and shows, as the Commissioner said, should involve the Eu ropean citizens and, I would add, young Europeans in par ticular, it is obvious that this discrimination is unacceptable.
De Coene (PSE). - (NL) Hr. formand Jeg ville fremsætte en lignende anmodning i betragtning af den kendsgerning, at kommissæren fandt det vigtigt, at han selv var til stede under forhandlingen.
I appreciate the fact that the Commissioner has been very explicit in this connection: we need to change the FIFA rules that have, until today, obliged the authorities, such as the Commissioner and now Parliament, to intervene on these issues.
Til dette formål vil et hjælpeprogram inden længe blive godkendt for omkring 10 000 flygtninge, der befinder sig i Guinea.
This is a cynical commercial organization - not the people of France and not the French football authorities - that is try ing to exploit the special nature of sport in the interests of making money and at the expense of the ordinary people of Europe.
Formanden. - De ærede medlemmers anmodning og de bemærkninger til forretningsordenen, som De har frem ført, har mere at gøre med en redegørelse fra Kommissionen. Det er ikke den procedure, som vi følger.
I hope we are going to take this seriously and, as a number of speakers have said including Mr Watson and Mr Cunha, if we do not get far more than is offered at the moment from the Commission or the authorities this issue is likely to go to the Court, and we have to make sure that the Courtjudges, and quickly.
Endelig, hr. Pettinari, vil jeg gerne præcisere, at samarbejdet med Nigeria har været indstillet siden 1995, og De ved ligesom jeg, at mange har givet udtryk for, at Nigeria havde overskredet sin rolle, og at landet ikke burde gribe militært ind i denne konflikt.
Ripa di Meana (V). - (IT) Mr President, we all agree on the problems: the shortage of seats owing to the objective limits of supply and demand; the excessive cost of tickets on indirect sale assigned to tour operators; the need to op pose the black market.
Forhandlingen under ét er afsluttet.
IN THE CHAIR: MRS SCHLEICHER Vice-President
Afstemningen finder sted i dag kl. 17.30.
Monfils (ELDR). - (FR) Madam President, it is clear that the Commission has lacked vigilance in this matter.
Jeg kan i øvrigt fortælle Dem, at jeg har bestræbt mig på, at I blev de første, der blev informeret om sagens til stand, efter de møder og diskussioner, som endnu fandt sted i løbet af de sidste par dage.
On reading the text of the draft arrangement, this would appear to be the predominant opinion, with reference to the rules laid down by the Treaty on competition, Articles 85 and 86.
Jeg er ligeledes i stand til, på dette sted og på dette tidspunkt, at fortælle, hvor langt vi er nået.
Within this framework, however, there is the risk of moving from an alleged abuse of the national dominant posi tion to an abuse of the dominant position held by the EU, since it is by definition an international event: the football World Cup.
Formanden. - Næste punkt på dagsordenen er forhand ling under ét om følgende forslag til beslutning:
Now it is right under our noses; the game is all but lost. The 50 000 tickets that you mentioned, Commissioner, these are a drop in the ocean.
B4-0338/98 af Bertens med flere for Det Europæiske Liberale og Demokratiske Partis Gruppe om overtrædelse af konkurrencereglerne ved organisationskomitéen for VM-fodbold i Frankrig;
It would appear that solution has now disappeared and that the French authorities are now longer prepared to offer extra tickets in compensation to those people who have been disadvantaged by what is a clear breach of Eu ropean Community law, namely Articles 85 and 86.
Men inden jeg indlader mig på at præcisere en række for skellige ting, vil jeg gerne påpege, at det problem, som vi beskæftiger os med, er relativt nyt.
In any case, in conclusion I would ask you first of all to do everything you can to prevent a black market from forming.
Det er rigtigt, at der al lerede har været nogle problemer i forbindelse med visse sportslige begivenheder, men generelt var det med hen syn til den måde, hvorpå arrangørerne havde valgt de rejsearrangører, der skulle sælge billetter, eller tildelingen af et monopol til visse forhandlere, som i Italien i 1990.
For the French will sell their tickets for matches such as the Belgium/Netherlands game at twenty times the price at which they bought them, which is unacceptable.
Vi har i dette tilfælde ændret systemet.
You can still try to scrape together places.
B4-0345/98 af De Coene for De Europæiske Social demokraters Gruppe om forskelsbehandling med hensyn til salg af billetter til VM-fodbold i Frankrig;
Amadeo (NI). - (IT) Madam President, we believe the concern over having to ensure the sacred principles of free competition and having to ensure the compatibility of initiatives with the rules ofthe internal market is the main reason for the spiralling increase in prices and offers in re-
Van Miert ubegrænset salg af billetter til et bestemt område.
Amadeo lation to the sale of tickets for the forthcoming 1998 World Cup to be held in France.
Der var ligeledes et problem med hensyn til sammenkædningen af salget af billetter og andre tjenester, f.eks. køb af flybillet eller leje af'hotel værelse, eller hvad ved jeg?
At the same time, sport, which already leads a rather modest existence in relation to its importance within the European Union, is being done a great disservice and a wedge is be ing driven between citizens ofthe Union.
Herefter er der de nationale forbund og rejsearrangørerne, som modtager henholdsvis 21 % og 5,4 %. Det vil altså sige, at rejsearrangørerne kun sælger 1/20-del af billetterne.
The Commission has found it necessary to disprove the accusations, according to which competition policy was at the origin of the spiralling increase in the prices of en trance tickets.
Hertil kommer så partnere eller sponsorer, der har modtaget 14,2 % af billetterne, og de offentlige myndigheder, der har deltaget i investeringerne - stadioner osv. - som har modtaget 2,8 % af billetterne.
It sent a letter to FIFA contesting the astronomic prices reported by some press agencies and emphasizing that these increases relate not only to entrance to the stadiums but also to the price ofthe means of transport and accommodation expenses.
Desuden skal man regne med forskellige aktiviteter - f.eks. tilrettelæggelse af sportslige begivenheder, organisation af unge og andre, der deltager i arrangementet - der udgør 4,3 %.
In short, I can only regret that, if I have understood the Commissioner correctly, there is no possibility of straightening out the situation pro praeterito.
Problemet er derfor meget bre dere, idet vi har konstateret - det er i hvert fald Kommissionens holdning - at systemet ikke er retfærdigt, og at det medfører forskelsbehandling.
van Miert, Member of the Commission. - (FR) Madam President, I think I should first remind people that in relation to the rules of competition, the Commission is re quired to follow procedural rules.
Vi har i forbindelse med Kommissionens tiltag drøftet med arrangørerne, i hvilken udstrækning de billetter, der stadig er disponible, lad os sige omtrent 160 000, kunne stilles til rådighed for de købere, der indtil videre ikke har haft adgang til salget på grund af de fastsatte grænser -besiddelse af et telefonnummer eller en adresse i Frankrig - for at give dem en smule kompensation. Vi har således anmodet om, at disse 160 000 billetter kunne bruges som kompensation.
Ensuring the principles of free competition, together with the fact of being able to overcome the accusation of abuse ' of a dominant position, should not be an obstacle to grant ing authorization to a single retailer in each Member State, specifically to prevent the emergence of the black market and, in particular, to prevent the monopolization of sales by the tourist agencies, thus giving all Community citizens the possibility of enjoying a sports event that is becoming increasingly more popular.
Proble merne begyndte i virkeligheden for alvor at manifestere sig i løbet af december måned i forbindelse med lodtrækningen om, hvem der skulle spille mod hvem.
When the problem first came to light in December, my departments immediately initiated a procedure, contact ing the 'accused' by means of letters.
Det blev også hurtigt klart, at man for at købe billetter i Frankring skulle have en adresse i landet.
But it was just some Members of Parliament, I think there were only two, although you now claim that you have been pleading with us since December to do something.
Det var således fra december måned, at vi begyndte at modtage klager, talrige klager, der nogle gange var lidt selvmodsigende.
In any case, we acted promptly, as I said, by contacting the 'accused' to ask them to explain the situation and to tell us if what we had heard was correct or not.
Det skal siges, at ud af disse 160 000 billetter vil ca. en tredjedel blive stillet til rådighed for de nationale forbund eller føderationer.
McMahon (PSE). - Madam President, the Commissioner has half-heartedly tackled FIFA on this matter.
De nationale forbund vil således have en smule flere billetter til deres rådighed.
They really have to strengthen their tackling - they really must get to grips with the situation.
Vi modtog efter nogle uger oplysninger fra arrangørerne, og det var således nødvendigt at konstatere, at der var et problem, bl.a. et problem med hensyn til forskelsbehandling.
As the explanations we received were not satisfactory -by this time it was January - we decided to move rapidly on to the second phase of the procedure and to send a let ter of warning to the interested parties.
Vi sendte så hurtigt som muligt en skriftlig advarsel.
Such speed in the sending of a letter of warning is extremely rare.
Kommissionen har således, efter at have konstateret, at der fandtes et problem, handlet hurtigt.
This is my position and I stand by it. You must realize that some things have been said today which I find unacceptable.
Fordi der er sket udpræget forskelsbehandling, hvilket jeg mener ikke kan bestrides, skal man så vidt muligt, og det mulige er desværre allerede meget begrænset, forsøge at rode bod på denne forskelsbehandling.
We are particularly concerned, and I am par ticularly concerned for the members of the Tartan army who are hoping to come from Scotland to see Scotland play Brazil and the ordinary fan is not going to be given the opportunity at all.
Vi har således in sisteret på, at disse billetter uden forskelsbehandling blev stillet til rådighed for købere ikke alene uden for Frankrig, men i hele Det Økonomiske Samarbejdsområde.
This week two tickets for the World Cup sold for £19 000 in Glasgow. That is almost more than some of the ordinary people earn in about two years.
Det er på dette punkt, at parterne i øjeblikket ikke er enige, idet man fra fransk side ønsker at tilbyde disse billetter til alle, og hvor vi gør gældende, at man, siden der er blevet begået forskelsbehandling, så vidt muligt skal forsøge at rette op på situationen, selvom mulighederne er begrænsede.
What opportunity will there be for ordinary people if these inflated prices are charged by whoever is organizing this World Cup? As other members have said, it is up to the Commission to take strong action.
For det første tror jeg, at det er nødvendigt at beskrive fordelingen af billetter til verdens mesterskaberne, således som det var påtænkt af arrangørerne.
In fact, I think I now clearly understand that when these organizations consider the Commission is getting in their way they merely say to themselves, 'we'll go and find some support amongst the politicians'.
Jeg vil give Dem både tal og procenter.
This is what happened in Ger many.
For at være helt nøjagtig er det samlede antal disponible billetter på 2 559 241, det vil sige lidt over 2,5 millioner billetter, hvoraf 4,8 % er forbeholdt såkaldte æresloger og -pladser.
Following a Court judgement, the political world rallied round to exempt sport from the rules of competition, saying to us, 'It is no longer your business, do not get involved in this.
Der er således tilsyneladende ikke så få lykkelige ud valgte; der vil kunne drage fordel af disse prestigepladser, nemlig 200 000.
You, Mr Van Miert, and you, the author ities responsible for competition at national level, you de serve a red card, go and sit on the touchline.
Hvad angår sikkerhedsforanstaltningerne, som der ofte er blevet henvist til for at forklare det, som er sket, accepterer Kommissionen naturligvis de argumenter, der er hold bare.
Hager (NI). - (DE) Madam President, the cultural, the social and indeed the commercial importance of sport is, I believe, beyond dispute.
Men det er også klart, hvad angår de neutrale tilskuere, som man kal-
People retain memories of what happened there for the rest of their lives.
Van Miert der dem, der ikke tilhører et af de lande, der spiller, at der ikke skal være nogen forskelsbehandling mellem EU-bor-gere, medmindre det drejer sig om en kompensation til fordel for statsborgere uden for Frankrig. Så langt er vi nået.
12.3.98 van Miert should have been able to contact the organizers who should have made tickets available to them indiscriminately.
En anden bemærkning falder mig ind.
So please, keep things in perspective.
Jeg tror, at man bør forstå, både på nationalt plan og i de sportslige organisationer, at der er borgere i Den Europæiske Union og at der også findes et EU-borgerskab.
Then, one month later, you probably read that a FIFA representative de clared, in Singapore, if I remember correctly, that he was going to contact several European Prime Ministers in or der to resolve the problem.
Det er stadfæstet i Traktaten.
This is the reality, can you believe it?
Jeg tror, at nogle har svært ved at acceptere dette princip og at drage konsekvenserne.
We also want to check certain details which have been provided to us.
Når det drejer sig om sportslige begivenheder, skal borgerne i EU således ikke frem over være genstand for forskelsbehandling.
In fact, it seems that some of the categories I have mentioned are unclear and we would like to know pre cisely what they cover.
Tillad mig nu at komme med følgende konklusioner og bemærkninger.
We will see what happens. Please do not ask me now what our conclusions will be!
Tillad mig en sidste bemærkning, som står for egen regning.
I met with more than one delegation of Members of Par liament who came to plead the cause of the sporting au thorities.
Da jeg for lidt siden beskrev fordelingen af billetter til verdensmesterskaberne, måtte jeg konstatere, at det var blevet meget svært for en EU-borger, der ikke har nogen forbindelser til en sponsor, der ikke tilhører en eller anden organisation, at opnå en billet, idet hovedparten af disse billetter åbenbart er beregnet til de mennesker, der tilhører disse organisationer eller har forbindelserne i orden.
I read yesterday in the papers that a minister -also in charge of sport - was going to come and see President Santer, my colleague Pádraig Flynn and myself to tell us that the Commission was no longer respecting the Bosman ruling ofthe Court.
Jeg spekulerer på, om dette nu også er klogt af arrangørerne.
This is the real situation.
Der findes selvfølgelig en række kommercielle for pligtelser, det forstår jeg godt.
But the Commission is holding firm, it is holding its course and it expects to make progress.
Der er behov for sponsorer.
This is the current situation.
Men behøver man gå så langt som det har været tilfældet denne gang, hvor den mindst mulige andel blev forbeholdt de borgere, der ikke har de nødvendige forbindelser?
If you require any further explanation, as usual I will be only too happy to provide it.
Jeg spørger bare!
(Loud applause)
Der synes i øvrigt at være tegn på, at det går i den rigtige retning.
By the way, this is all apparently true for Formula 1 racing too.
Jeg har forstået, at kandidaten til formandsposten for FIFA skulle have udtalt: »Hvis jeg bliver valgt, vil jeg tage hånd om dette problem«.
President. - Commissioner van Miert, we all know you have a difficult job.
Vi er allerede blevet kon taktet af arrangørerne af europamesterskaberne, der fin der sted om to år, som sagde: »Værsgo!
You have told us you could not take on the World Sports Federation but you did not tell us whether you would take it on if you were allowed to!
Der er således tegn på god vilje i denne henseende.
On the other hand, I request your support in this matter.
Det er selvfølgelig noget, der glæder mig, fordi en anden konklusion er, at man bør forsøge at undgå denne type problemer i fremtiden, i stedet for at rette op på situationen, når det er gået skævt.
When we have to tell FIFA that it must not only discuss with the Commission - which it generally refuses to do - but also change its system, can I count on the broad support ofthe European Parliament?
Jeg tror, at man i større grad bør tænke på borgerne.
Thank you very much, I appreciate that, but can I also count on your support in my discussions with certain national sports authorities?
Jeg har selv ingen pro blemer med at få billetter.
Killilea (UPE). - Madam President, I hope it is a point of order.
Men den al mindelige borger har til gengæld problemer!
Just as well, after listening to Hughie McMahon.
Så på dette grundlag må sandheden frem!
President. - Mr Killilea, the debate is now closed.
Nu ved vi da lidt om, hvad det drejer sig om.
Before the vote on Nicaragua:
Jeg har noteret mig kommissærens ord om, at dette system er uretfærdigt og diskriminerende. Og hvad har Kommissionen gjort ved det?
Pasty (UPE). - (FR) Madam President, I wish to make a point of order.
De har tilsyneladende sendt en advarsel i december, men vi er nu i marts.
I am therefore surprised that the motion for a resolution on Nicaragua concerns foreign debt.
De må forstå, at vi under alle omstændigheder ikke har til hensigt at se igen nem fingre med det. De skal lige som alle andre acceptere de retlige spilleregler i et retligt EU.
When it comes to tackling the black market, Mr Monfils, please be assured that we will do all we can!
Vi er fuldt ud rede til at tage højde for sportens sær lige beskaffenhed og krav, herunder med hensyn til sikkerhed, der hænger tæt sammen med denne type arrangement.
As you know, this is my way and I think this is now understood, not only within Parliament but elsewhere too.
Det er interessant at vide, at vi håber at undgå sådanne situationer i fremtiden.
Could someone please explain to me how Nicaragua's foreign debt is a violation of human rights?
Det overrasker mig, for de nationale forbund er en del af FIFA, og de har accepteret systemet, således som det blev udarbejdet.
There is a problem here, too, for travel agencies must pay fees, they have to pay a great deal to be able to sell tickets.
Men vi kan naturligvis sige: Ja, for disse 100 000 billetter, som er tilbage, følger vi lige reglerne på et tidspunkt, hvor der angiveligt allerede er solgt mere end 2,4 millioner. Det er således egentlig at spise os af med krummer, og det kan man altså ikke.
President. - The next item is the continuation of the de bate on the report (A4-0058/98) by Mr Bontempi, on be half of the Committee on Civil Liberties and Internal Affairs, on judicial cooperation in criminal matters in the European Union.
der er stillet til rådighed for europæiske fodboldfans, er latterligt. Når man hører forslaget om, at man for at få bil letter skal opgive en adresse i Frankrig, spørger man helt alvorligt sig selv om, hvem der mon var til stede, da dette forslag blev fremlagt?
Schulz (PSE). - (DE) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I am pleased to see that Mr Posselt breaks into spontaneous applause at the very mention of my name, which shows that contrary to all expectations he is a clever Member.
For det andet kunne vi sige: Vi vil idømme bøder.
In political terms this is understandable.
Det er måske ikke dårligt, at hr. Platini eller andre solkonger i Frankrig rammes økonomisk, for i sidste instans - og det har De selv sagt - er dette i første række et spørgsmål om penge og om mange penge.
On the one hand, we are confronted by a supranational body, the European Union, while on the other hand, the nation states realize that they are losing national sovereignty as the European Union gains in importance.
Lad dem så betale disse bøder, men naturligvis er det da en ulempe, at de almindelige borgere ikke får noget ud af det, og således må også vi parlamentsmedlemmer se på, hvilke beføjelser vi har, hvilke midler vi har til i sidste instans at gennemtvinge fællesskabsretten.
However, the national governments have a certain defence mechanism which is expressed in the strongest terms where the nation states can best demonstrate their sovereignty, namely in their monopoly of power, particularly in terms of the po lice and the justice.
Watson (ELDR). - (EN) Hr. formand, jeg vil gerne sige til kommissæren, at Liberale her i Parlamentet er dybt skuffede over hans redegørelse.
The nation states are not therefore sufficiently prepared to use intergovernmental cooperation at European level to agree on provisions under Community law.
Det er det første VM, der involverer milliarder af dollars.
However, this would be essential politically.
Kommissionen blev advaret om dette i juni sidste år i et brev fra professor Weatherill fra universitet i Oxford.
I refer to the events of this afternoon which resulted in our having to continue the debate now.
Jeg har fået at vide, at Kommissionen har haft drøftelser med den franske organisationskomité, som måske ikke har været helt ærlig over for Kommissionen.
This afternoon we had the rather regrettable conduct of the debate to complain about and I trust you will understand if I linger a moment longer on procedural issues.
Kun få fodboldfans uden for Frankrig vil kunne få billet ter til kampene. De fleste skal betale en vanvittig pris for billetterne.
I can understand perfectly well that it is very difficult to organize an agenda in a packed business week in Strasbourg.
Hvis Kommissionen beslutter, at der er gode grunde til, at systemet skal fortsætte, må Kommissionen i det mindste sagsøge og idømme den franske organisationskomité bøder.
The Commissioner then departs and takes no further part in the actual debate.
Jeg vil også lige henvende mig til mine franske kolleger.
I have now reached my third point.
Dette er et spørgsmål om elementær respekt for europæiske regler.
In this respect, Mr Bontempi's report is a major step forward in the debate.
Når vi i dag tager dette spørgsmål op, så er det ikke uden konse kvenser for fremtiden.
I hope that it does not stay a debate but that we will soon agree on suitable forms of cooperation with the efficiency required in the fight against crime.
Hvad er fremtiden, hr. kommissær, ærede kolleger?
This was all somewhat unfortunate.
EM i år 2000, arrangeret af Belgien og Nederlandene.
I do not want to start apportioning blame now.
