Pinheiro, medlem af Kommissionen. - (PT) Hr. Suárez González, projektet til støtte for valgprocessen, 1,95 mio ECU, der er tilvejebragt gennem midler under det vejledende Lomé IV-program, er beregnet til finansiering af en del af det nødvendige udstyr til tilrettelæggelse af valget af præsident og lovgivende forsamling samt til teknisk støtte til organisering af valgprocessen.
Will the Commission confirm that this discrimination against European Community nationals is contrary to the Treaty of Rome and what action does it propose to take to remedy this situation?
Milian, medlem af Kommissionen. - (EN) Der blev sidste år nedsat en international ekspertgruppe på det demografiske område i Europa-Rådets regi og med det formål at yde teknisk bistand til myndighederne i den tidligere jugoslaviske republik Makedonien i forbindelse med organiseringen af folkeoptællingen.
Millan, Member of the Commission. - The Commission understands that the Greek authorities intend to pursue the Acheloos project and have included provisions for this in their regional development plan for the period 1994-1999.
Den store saldo skyldes forskellige forhold.
They are indeed discriminatory.
Kommissionen har ydet økonomisk bistand på betingelse ikke blot af, at der vedtages lovgivning i overensstemmelse med internationale normer, men også af at der bliver tale om en nøje international kontrol, mens optællingen bliver gennemført.
For its part, apart from those components of the project already financed under the Integrated Mediterranean Programmes, the Commission has not yet taken any decision on this project.
En vis andel af de 2 millioner ecu skal delvis dække udgifterne i forbindelse med denne kontrol, hvor Eurostat vil deltage.
It will do so in the light of the Greek authorities' detailed proposals, which it has yet to receive, and taking into account all relevant aspects of the project.
Med hensyn til de to andre punkter, der finansieres over budgetkontoen »demokrati og menneskerettigheder« (B75220), kan jeg sige følgende: for det første blev NCCD-medlemmernes (Det Nationale Center for Udviklingssamarbejde) besøg udsat til det tredje kvartal af 1993 på grund af valgkalenderen.
The Commission has therefore established informal contacts with Spain to try and clear up the details of the situation and see whether a solution can be found straightaway.
Pierros (PPE). - (EL) Det er mit indtryk, at dette ikke er et teknisk spørgsmål. Vi ved alle, at den tidligere jugoslaviske republik Makedonien består af mange etniske befolkningsgrupper, og at republikken ikke er kendetegnet af stor respekt for menneskerettighederne. Jeg vil derfor spørge Dem, hvilke foranstaltninger Kommissionen agter at træffe - hvis vi ser bort fra de tekniske sider af sagen - for at sikre, at alle minoriteter i området garanteres ytringsfrihed.
Papayannakis (NI). - (EL) Mr Commissioner, we have raised this issue of the diversion of the Acheloos river on many occasions with you and your colleagues.
Pinheiro den nuværende situation er det vanskeligt at sige noget om muligheden for at gennemføre denne aktion i 1994.
- always, any follow-up depends on the news we receive of what really took place.
For det andet kunne bevidstgørelsesseminarerne vedrørende menneskerettigheder, der var fastsat til sidste kvartal i 1993, ikke gennemføres som følge af statskuppet i oktober 1993 og de efterfølgende begivenheder.
Firstly, how many studies have been commissioned and completed on the economic feasibility of the project and what were the results of these studies?
Arias Cañete (PPE). - (ES) Mange tak for Deres svar. hr. kommissær, og for Deres oprigtige tilkendegivelse af, at De ikke har kunnet besvare spørgsmålet i sin helhed.
Secondly, has an environmental impact study been carried out for the entire project?
Det ville have været yderst interessant at få oplyst, hvilke ikkestatslige organisationer der kan handle under frie forhold, og som har fået denne rundbordskonference finansieret.
Why is the Greek government maintaining that you agree with it and that you have approved the environmental impact study?
Suárez González (PPE). - (ES) Jeg vil gerne oprigtigt og eftertrykkeligt takke kommissæren for hans klare svar, som naturligvis viser, hvor velunderrettet han er, og jeg er ham taknemlig for at have viderebragt mig sin viden.
I would like to add that, at this juncture, the Member States are fully responsible for complying with European Union standards on the transport of live animals. In addition, the way the budget is packaged means that the Community's Veterinary and Phytosanitary Inspectorate does not have enough staff to carry out inspections in this sector.
Ikke desto mindre skal jeg fremsætte et par kommentarer.
Thirdly, when do you intend to give Parliament a full report on the entire matter?
Det, der bekymrer mig meget, er, at kommissærerne - og naturligvis Kommissionen - påtager sig ansvaret, eller optræder som de ansvarlige for nogle beslutninger, der øjensynlig træffes på lavere niveauer.
Newton Dunn (PPE). - Firstly, I am grateful to Mr Turner for putting down this question. Commissioner, thank you for expressing your concern and giving your assurance that this is being followed up - I wait to hear the results.
For det kunne ikke falde nogen kommissær ind at bevilge 4.800 ecu, som jo er det rene ingenting, til seminarer om demokratisk bevidstgørelse i Burundi, og i stedet bevilge 115.000 ecu - næsten 24 gange så meget - til forskellige personer fra Burundis besøg i Det Europæiske Fællesskab.
Can you tell me whether there is any news on the directive which Parliament has frequently and long pressed for on journey time and the conditions for moving not only donkeys but also other animals?
Det er der ingen mening i, hr. kommissær, og resultatet af Burundis demokratiseringsproces er jo tydeligt for enhver.
Could you give us any encouragement on that? What is the news on that directive?
Pinheiro. - (PT) Lige så oprigtigt kan jeg sige, at jeg fuldt ud deler det ærede medlems synspunkt.
Millan. - Obviously I cannot inform Parliament of the overall results of the project until the project is submitted to the Commission.
Suárez González (PPE). - (ES) Jeg tager ordet i mit inderlige ønske om, at Kommissionen bliver yderst bevidst om, at embedsmændenes beslutninger skal kon trolleres.
There have, of course, been numerous discussions with the Greek authorities and, as the honourable Member will know, there have been several debates in this Chamber on this particular project.
I de seneste dages aviser har vi kunnet erfare, at kommissær Marin har været i Havanna, og jeg nærer ubetinget tillid til, at hr. Marins foranstaltninger i Havanna vil være humanitære og positive i forhold til vore intentioner.
All that I can say at the moment is that the new government in Greece has reassessed the project, as I understand it, in a number of different ways, but it has not yet produced a proposal for the Commission to consider for funding.
Men det giver indtryk af, at Europa stiller sig solidarisk med Castros styre, hvorfor det er nødvendigt, at vi i det mindste kommer en sådan fortolkning i forkøbet.
Until it has done so, I cannot be more specific than I have already been in my original answer this evening.
Derfor er det vigtigt, at vi får kendskab til dette kontor for humanitært samarbejde - som er en form for ikke-statslig organisation, der skal operere i Havanna -og at vi kan underlægge det en vis kontrol, således at kontoret ikke underlægges beslutninger fra embedsmænd, der sidder under kommissærerne.
The Commission intends to pursue this as an infringement. Should it subsequently be demonstrated that this was not an isolated incident and that other Member States have failed in their duty to comply with the directive, then the Commission will also look into the possibility of initiating proceedings under the terms of Article 169 of the Treaty.
Formanden. - Spørgsmål nr. 17 af Arias Cañete (H0369/94):
Question No 28 by Mrs Sandbæk, which has been taken over by Mr Bonde (H-0374/94):
Om: Europæiske NGO'er i Cuba
Subject: Aid for shipyards
Ifølge Kommissionens beretning om gennemførelsen i 1993 af Rådets resolution af 28. november 1991 om menneskerettigheder, demokrati og udvikling er der afsat 100.000 ecu til afholdelse af en rundbordskonference for europæiske NGO'er i Cuba.
So far as the studies are concerned, there have been a number of environmental impact assessments which are the basic responsibility of my colleague, Mr Paleokrassas - so far as the economics of the scheme are concerned -but it was a scheme which is rather different from what is likely to be proposed by the new Greek Government.
Pinheiro. - (PT) Jeg vil gerne påpege, at Kommissionen og i særdeleshed næstformanden, hr. Marin, utvetydigt har markeret forskellen mellem fællesskabsaktioner til fordel for det cubanske folk, og hvad der kunne opfattes som en - indirekte - støtte til et styre, der af medlems staterne såvel som af Kommissionen betragtes som fuldstændig uacceptabelt. Dette skal klart og utvetydigt understreges.
There were two major studies undertaken at my request by consultants for the Commission. I have made it clear to this House on a number of occasions that as and when the Commission takes the final decision on this project, I shall make a statement dealing with the kinds of matters that have just been raised by the honourable gentlemen.
Vil Kommissionen oplyse det nærmere tidspunkt for denne rundbordskonference samt nævne nogle europæiske NGO'er, der arbejder under helt frie forhold i Cuba?
President. - Question No 26 by Mr Turner, which has been taken over by Mr Newton Dunn (H-0372/94):
Formanden. - Spørgsmål nr. 18 af McMahon (H-0377/ 94):
How will, for instance, Danish shipyards be affected in terms of jobs if the Commission approves the German request to spend some DM 550 m on the construction of a new super-shipyard in Wismar?
Om: Rådets (sociale anliggender) møde den 19. april 1994
Subject: Cruelty to live donkeys
Kommissionen bedes orientere Parlamentet om resultaterne af Rådets (sociale anliggender) møde den 19. april 1994.
Why has the matter been under consideration for eight months already, thereby creating unnecessary uncertainty about investment in an otherwise competitive shipbuilding sector?
Pinheiro, medlem af Kommissionen. - (PT) Hr. Arias Cañete, Kommissionen har i det forgangne år finansieret et projekt, der tog sigte på at arrangere et møde mellem ikkestatslige organisationer om samarbejdet med Cuba, hvor den nuværende situation og fremtidsudsigterne for udviklingen af ikkestatslige organisationers samarbejde med dette land drøftedes.
The Commission's attention has been brought (by the Donkey Sanctuary in Devon) to the traffic in live donkeys which are being shipped from the Republic of Ireland to France without apparent due regard to the provisions of Directive 91/628 (')·
Den omhandlede rundbordskonference fandt sted i Havana fra den 5. til den 11. september 1993 med deltagelse af 170 repræsentanter for henholdsvis 72 cubanske ikkestatslige organisationer og 98 ikkestatslige organisationer fra 21 lande i Europa, USA, Canada og Latinamerika. rika.
Is the Commission Inspectorate (which was pro posed in the directive) taking action, or, if not, what action is the Commission taking in order to guarantee that these donkeys are treated properly?
Milian, medlem af Kommissionen. - (EN) Jeg vil henvise medlemmet til Rådets pressemeddelelse om det møde i Ministerrådet, der er tale om.
Pinheiro, Member of the Commission. - (PT) Mr Bonde, shipbuilding has a long tradition in the Land of Mecklen-burg-Pomerania and in the city of Wismar.
Der var også en vis diskussion om forslaget om en forordning om oprettelse af det Europæiske Agentur for Sundhed og Sikkerhed på Arbejdspladsen, hvor man afventer en udtalelse fra Parlamentet.
At the time of the adoption of the derogation applicable to the shipyards located in this area, it was decided to reduce production capacity by 40% in exchange for granting aid needed to restructure the yards in a way that would make them competitive.
McMahon (PSE). - (EN) I sin meget korte besvarelse nævnte kommissæren to sager, som Parlamentet er meget interesseret i: Unge mennesker på arbejdspladsen og fattigdomsprogrammet.
Vanni D'Archirafi, Member of the Commission. - (IT) Mr President, donkeys, which are such gentle animals, brought great joy to me as a child.
Kan kommissæren forklare os, hvorfor det var så ganske umuligt for Rådet at vedtage disse to programmer?
I am therefore pleased to look into the matter.
Skyldtes det, at Europa-Parlamentet havde slettet det britiske fravalg for syv år af loven om unge på arbejdspladsen?
I can say that the Commission has been made aware of this problem and has turned to the national authorities involved - namely the Irish, French and German authorities - for explanations of incidents -according the questioner - which are said to have taken place during the transport of donkeys from Ireland to Germany via France.
Det ærede medlem anmodede Kommissionen om at nævne nogle europæiske NGO'er, der arbejder under helt frie forhold i Cuba.
Reducing capacity contributed to the drop in surplus capacity and took account of the Community's applicable competition rules.
Da det ikke har været muligt at imødekomme denne anmodning på indeværende tids punkt, vil jeg anmode kommissær Marins kontor om hurtigst muligt skriftligt at meddele Dem, hvad Kommissionen måtte have af oplysninger om dette punkt.
The decision concerning the Wismar shipyards was, and is, a tough decision, not only because of the plan - initially advanced - to place the shipyards some 800 metres away from where they are currently located, but also because the Commission wanted to respect the views of the Member States as far as possible.
Millan frie varebevægelser inden for Fællesskabet (artikel 30 til 36 i traktaten).
Environment. I am informed that the 10th EUROCAP registry leaders' meeting is scheduled on 4 to 6 May 1994 in Galway.
Kommissionen skal derfor nu overveje, om den tyske lov kan anses som værende nødvendig for beskyttelsen af spædbørnenes helbred under særlig hen syntagen til udtalelsen fra Den Videnskabelige Komité for Levnedsmidler og til proportionalitetsprincippet.
Limb reduction defects, babies without hands and anophthalmia are topics which will be specifically covered during the meeting.
Millan. - (EN) Jeg kan naturligvis ikke give forsikringer om, hvad Rådet vil vedtage på det næste møde om sociale anliggender.
In this situation, before any decisions are taken there is wide-ranging consultation with specialists in a multilateral meeting, in an attempt to find out the views of the Member States regarding the various technical aspects.
Det afhænger af Rådet selv. Jeg kan blot sige fra Kommissionens synspunkt, at vi naturligvis er ivrige for at komme videre med disse spørgsmål.
This explains the time needed to examine this process in such a way that the Commission's decision complies with the rules of the 7th Directive in the sense that it has consulted the Member States.
Det er specielt vanskeligt, når det gælder en række sager. Jeg kan kun gentage, at Kommissionen er ivrig for at komme videre med alle disse forslag.
I also thank the Commissioner for an exceedingly helpful answer.
Valverde López (PPE). - (ES) Tak for disse oplysninger, hr. kommissær.
President. - Question No 30 by Mr Howell, which has been taken over by Mr Newton Dunn (H-0376/94)
Men De har givet en forklaring, som Kommissionen selv burde give.
Bonde (ARC). - (DA) I would like to ask the Commission whether it can give us an assurance that from now on swift action will be taken in such cases.
Når der ikke foreligger harmoniseringsbestemmelser for en given sektor, så kræver fællesskabslovgivningen, som De selv har nævnt, netop at Kommissionen underrettes, før der iværksættes en ensidig foranstaltning, og den skal så godkende det pågældende lovgivningsudkast.
Nine months passed before a satisfactory decision was reached which respected the general rules governing state subsidies within the Community, and throughout that period the shipbuilding yards - in my country, among others - were in doubt as to how much they could invest in various ways, and this generated unnecessary uncertainty that can only be avoided if, in future, the Commission respects the relevant treaties and provisions in application and does so regardless of the size of the country involved.
Det, jeg derfor vil bede kommissæren om, er, at han fortæller mig, hvornår Kommissionen har godkendt denne særlovgivning fra den tyske regering.
It was reported earlier this year that a team of agricultural economists from almost every EU state had made a report to the Commission which recommended that the present structure of the common agricultural policy should be broken up, with the main responsibility for farmers being handed back to Member State governments.
Oddy (PSE). - (EN) Jeg vil gerne bede om nogle yderligere detaljer, for så vidt angår specielt den sociale udelukkelse.
Will the Commission publish the report in the inter ests of transparency? What action does it propose to take on its recommendations?
Har Rådet diskuteret reaktionerne på grøn bogen om socialpolitikken?
Vanni D'Archirafi, Member of the Commission. - (IT) Mr President, I will say that at the request of the Commission departments, a group of external experts -specializing primarily in agricultural economics - carried out a study on the prospects of the reform of the Common Agricultural Policy.
Hvornår kan vi forvente, at hvidbogen foreligger?
On the basis of this study, the group is completing a report that will be published in the near future in a spirit of transparency.
Milian. - (EN) Vedrørende det sidste punkt kan jeg sige, at der var en kort diskussion om grønbogen.
Pinheiro. - (PT) Objectively speaking, what the honour able Member has said echoes our position.
Det ville måske være nyttigt for begge medlemmer, hvis jeg sendte Dem en kopi af den pressemeddelelse, som Rådet udsendte efter mødet.
We would like to draw his attention to the fact that the main responsibility for the delay in the decision cannot be laid at the Commission's door.
Kommissionen ønsker inderligt at komme videre med alle disse spørgsmål.
First of all, as I said, because the mere fact that the plan to move the yards partly raises the question of the legitimacy of the requested state aid.
Opfølgningen efter grønbogen med en hvidbog skal om muligt udarbejdes af Kommissionen på et tidspunkt i løbet af efteråret.
Secondly, it was absolutely essential for the Commission to guarantee a 40% reduction, either in the current state of the yards, or in any circumstances in which they might find themselves.
Samtidig, hvis kommissæren vil tillade mig at stille endnu et spørgsmål, fik vi, ganske få dage efter at disse begivenheder indtraf og jeg stillede mit spørgsmål, gen nem pressen - og også gennem anmeldelser fra virksomheder, som forhandler olivenolie i Tyskland - kendskab til, at også olivenolie er tørnet ind i problemer omkring nægtelse af forhandling.
If the Commission were to start deviating from principles, objectives and guidelines just to get a faster decision, then uncertainty would take root in other countries.
Kunne kommissæren give os flere oplysninger om dette spørgsmål, i betragtning af at der er tale om et parallelt problem?
Thus, I can say to the Member that the 40% cut in production is a sine qua non, and that if there is a final decision as to the location, production structure and equipment, then it will not just be approved by the Commission, but also by the other Member States, in such a way that the process is transparent and that the decisions taken by the Community are secure.
Hvilke oplysninger ligger han inde med desangående?
The group points to a number of guidelines for a reform of the Common Agricultural Policy, guidelines which are rather radical on a number of points.
Formanden. - Spørgsmål nr. 19 af Valverde López (H-0360/94):
President. - Question No 29 by Mr Anthony Simpson, which has been taken over by Mr Newton Dunn (H0375/94)
Om: Foranstaltninger med »tilsvarende virkning« som et brud på konkurrencepolitikken ved markeds føring af babymad i Tyskland
Subject: Comparative European health statistics
Dette insektmiddel er imidlertid af Den Europæiske Union godkendt til brug på frisk frugt og grøntsager i højere koncentrationer end dem, der er fundet i de pågældende levnedsmidler.
Are any comparative statistics available for the European Union about incidences of babies being born without hands?
Hvordan stiller Kommissionen sig til denne sag?
The Commission's view has not changed, even after it learned of the results of the study.
Vanni D'Archirafi. - (IT) Jeg vil begynde med det sidste punkt og sige til spørgeren, at Kommissionen ikke har hørt om denne anden episode.
There appear to have been clusters of such babies on parts of the UK coastline (it not being known whether the cause is environmental or genetic).
For så vidt angår den nærværende sag, så er det et faktum, at Kommissionens tjene stegrene har undersøgt den på et møde med de tyske og de spanske myndigheder.
Is there evidence of similar clusters elsewhere in the EU?
Under det omtalte møde har Kommissionen udtalt, at den har i sinde at foreslå nogle harmoniseringsforanstaltninger netop med henblik på sager som denne, hvor der er tale om rester af lindan.
Newton-Dunn (PPE). - Commissioner, you said that the report will be published in the near future.
Formanden. - Spørgsmål nr. 20 af Oddy (H-0361/ 94/ændr.):
Are there EU statistics about anophthalmia (babies born without eyes)?
Om: De lønmæssige følger af nedlæggelsen af løn ningsrådene i Det Forenede Kongerige
I am not in a position to define it. By 'near future' I personally mean 'in the coming weeks' or 'in the coming months'.
Vanni D'Archirafi, medlem af Kommissionen. - (IT) Hr. formand, Kommissionen har rent faktisk modtaget en klage i forbindelse med det forbud mod markedsføring af babymad i Tyskland, der skyldes, at man mener, at koncentrationen af rester af pesticidet lindan i disse produkter er for høj.
Millan, Member of the Commission. - Selected statistics on the disorders referred to by the honourable Member do exist.
Stk. 14 i den tyske forordning om levnedsmidler forbyder rent faktisk markedsføringen af babymad, der indeholder mere end 0,001 mg per kilo gram re„ster af fytosanitære produkter, heriblandt lindan.
These statistics are part of base-line of epidemiological information on congenital anomalies in Europe provided by EUROCAP, which is the European Registry of Congenital Anomalies Project.
Af den undersøgelse, der er foretaget i Tyskland af de produkter, som denne sag handler om, fremgår det, at der findes et indhold af lindan svarende til 0,003 mg per kilogram.
It is a programme supported by the European Commission which involves surveillance based on a network of regional registries coordinated by a central registry situated at the Institute of Hygiene of the Belgian Ministry of Health and
Formanden målestok - men specielt efter de nye normer - meget, meget lave. og der må så afgjort være et element af udnyttelse i mange af de tilfælde, hun omtalte.
Policy and could have a very negative impact on many rural regions which are still counting on agricultural development for their future.
McMahon (PSE). - (EN) Selv om den accepterer, at disse regler varierer inden for Fællesskabet, vil Kommissionen så ikke medgive, at det er væsentligt at sikre, at udnyttelse ikke finder sted på det fælles marked, og at der er en retfærdig bane at spille på, og vil det ikke være i Fællesskabets interesse og i den sociale samhørigheds interesse, at der gælder en minimumsløn/minimumsindtægt? tægt?
On the other hand, the report doe not contain a thorough analysis of the possible new allocation of tasks among the Union and the Member States in agricultural policy. While it does emphasize the need for a tough competition policy, which would be the responsibility of the Union, it does not explain how this would be applied in practice or how distortions of competition could be prevented when each Member State is able to choose its own level of support.
