Denne aftale udgør et ubestrideligt fremskridt, men det er vigtigt at give ikke blot Zaïre men også Bumndi midler til at gøre det muligt for de rwandiske flygtninge, der ikke ønsker at vende tilbage til deres land, at blive i disse lande under anstændige og sikre levevilkår.
But equally serious is the fact that, in many European states, governments and those wielding economic power are responding to this crisis by mounting a brutal and unrelenting attack on the social rights of the citizen.
Hvis det ikke sker, hr. formand, så ved vi helt sikkert, at menneskene løber en stor risiko.
Frankly, that is one of the reasons why the extreme right is doing well in some of our countries.
Hr. formand, ingen kan om Rwanda-problemet sige, at vi ikke vidste det, og den, som vidste det og ikke greb ind, er jo medskyldig.
I would remind Mr Lannoye that, four years ago, the Greens in Gembloux were calling for the closure of plants. Do not indulge in this double-talk!
Når jeg opholder mig særligt ved dette punkt, er det først og fremmest, fordi der er grund til at foruroliges over den optræden, som soldaterne i den tidligere rwandiske hær lægger for dagen.
The Council recommendation of 1992, which affirmed the need for binding guarantees to maintain and develop social protection, is almost always circumvented and in some cases completely flouted.
De hindrer en ordentlig afvikling af de humanitære operationer i flygtningelejrene.
The Italian Government is a case in point.
Hvad værre er, er, at vi lige har hørt, at ca. 50 rwandiske flygtninge er blevet massakreret i Bumndi natten mellem mandag og tirsdag, og selv om det endnu ikke har været muligt at identificere ophavsmændene til massakren, så lader rygterne fra de overlevende forstå, at der kunne være tale om tidligere rebeller, altså medlemmer af den nuværende rwandiske hær.
It is the only one in the world in which political power, economic power, and power over all the media are concentrated in the hands of the Prime Minister, and the best it can do is to introduce a financial law which seeks to remedy the crisis by the sole expedient of reducing pensions, increasing school fees and pursuing an indiscriminate policy of privatisation, completely destroying what remains of the welfare state. And to think this is the government that wooed the electors with
Pradier (ARE). - (FR) Hr. formand, kære kolleger, Burundi står nu på randen til det, der er foregået i Rwanda for nogle måneder siden.
Lannoye (V). - (FR) Mr President, I believe I have just been taken to task.
Det er rent faktisk et land, der står på randen af afgrunden.
I think that interjections of that kind are unworthy of this Parliament.
Man fortsætter med at massakrere hinanden dér, som jeg personligt har konsta
I do not see what the Greens in Gembloux have to do with this affair.
For det tredje en udvidelse af den nuværende rwandiske regering ved også at optage de legitime repræsentanter for de to etniske grupper.
It could be said that the real convergence which is being achieved as a result of the prevailing strategy and its two nominal convergence criteria is the convergence of unemployment rates and deteriorating social circumstances.
Det har for øvrigt alt sammen været genstand for drøftelser under den rwandiske premierministers nylige besøg i Kommissionen.
It is very important, topical and urgent to debate these situations and above all the causes of them. Because we will certainly not escape from them if we keep on trying to follow the same route to recovery.
Det er af vital betydning, at der iværksættes en række sande hjælpeforanstaltninger til fordel for disse lande, så de kan udvikle deres økonomier.
Tony Young, the General-Secretary of the National Communications Union, has gone on record as saying that he wants to work with the tide rather than fight against it.
Van den Broek, medlem af Kommissionen. - (NL) Hr. formand, allerførst vil jeg sige, at også Kommissionen er af den opfattelse, at situationen i Rwanda og Burundi i øjeblikket igen snarere forværres end forbedres, således som en række medlemmer har bemærket, og at der bestemt er en reel chance for, at fjendtlighederne mellem hutueme og tutsierne på ny vil blusse op.
Tajani (FE). - (IT) Mr President, paragraph three of the motion for a resolution on employment appears to us to be an attempt to use the European Parliament for domestic political ends, the second such attempt by Italian MEPs on the left in the space of twenty-four hours.
I den forbindelse er der også frygt for, at Bumndi inddrages i krisen, og denne frygt kunne udmærket vise sig at være berettiget i betragtning af, at der udgår en destabiliserende virkning af den støtte, som ydes ekstremistiske hutuer af elementer i den tidligere rwandiske hær, som er til stede i Burundi.
Paragraph 3 appears to us to be an abuse of the power to lay down guidelines, a breach of the principle of non interference in the internal affairs of a Member State.
Den politiske situation i flygtningelejrene forårsager også store problemer for den humanitære hjælp.
But, above all, the authors of the resolution are drawing a distinction between two institutions of the European Union, Parliament and the Commission.
Situationen i disse lejre forhindrer ligeledes flygtningenes tilbagevenden og befordrer et eventuelt modangreb på tutsihæren, fordi de politiske ledere af den tidligere rwandiske regering kontrollerer flygtningene, og ved at den tidligere rwandiske hær på alle mulige måder bevæbnes igen.
The Commission, in fact, wants Italy to return to a position where it meets the conditions laid down in the Treaty on European Union for transition to the third phase of economic and monetary union.
Til sidst udarbejdelsen af et langsigtet rehabiliteringsprogram for Rwanda i nært samarbejde med den nye rege ring.
And the Italian Government's economic policies are designed precisely to achieve that objective.
Så vil jeg til sidst sige et par ord om den humanitære bistand også i Burundi.
It is also not true that the Italian measures are contrary to the resolution of July 1992.
Kommissionen har siden marts i år støttet alle internationale organisationers og ikkestatslige organisationers aktiviteter.
Those who drafted the joint motion for a resolution have obviously not read that resolution.
Beskæftigelse og sociale rettigheder
It will therefore not participate in the vote but will leave the Chamber.
I denne situation er det ikke let at komme med en løsning.
Haarder (ELDR). - (DA) Mr President, The present proposal lacks dynamism.
Men Kommissionen gennemfører den politik, som blev bekræftet i den såkaldte fælles holdning, som udenrigsministrene opnåede enighed om den 4. oktober i år.
I quite understand that one must respect all the agreed rights when wishing to shut down a company.
For det første selvfølgelig fortsættelsen, og hvor det er nødvendigt, intensiveringen af den humanitære hjælp.
But in reading the joint motion for a resolution before us, I feel that an element is missing.
For det andet gennemførelsen af nødrehabiliteringsprogrammet, som navnlig har at gøre med, at der skal sørges for, at elektricitets- og vandforsyningen kommer i gang igen i hovedstaden Kigali i Rwanda.
Namely that the best thing we can do when a company has to close down production because of outdated methods, is to create modern production facilities with better working conditions for more employees.
Der er i mellemtiden truffet forberedelser til at muliggøre, at der udsendes mellem 40 og 60 observatører fra Den Europæiske Union, som i to måneder skal optræde i nøje samarbejde med og som en del af et FN-kontingent, hvorved der så i alt vil være næsten 150 observatører aktive i Rwanda.
And, further, that the very fact that telecommunications services become cheaper because they can be provided using fewer employees means that there will be numerous new jobs created, and that these jobs will be both better, and better paid, than those which have been abolished.
Unionens medlemsstater er for øvrigt blevet anmodet om at deltage i dette program, som koordineres af Kommissionen.
Therefore, Mr President, I have to say that the Liberal Group cannot vote for this proposal because we feel it lacks the dynamic dimension.
Formanden. - Næste punkt på dagsordenen er forhandling under ét om følgende beslutningsforslag:
Italy is in line as regards inflation but it has major problems with respect to the national debt.
B4-0280/94 af Ewing og Macartney for Gruppen Europæisk Radikal Alliance om beskæftigelse og sociale rettigheder;
The imprudent and fraudulent manner in which business policy has been conducted in Italy for more than forty years, up to 27 March this year, by the parties in power, particularly the Christian Democrats and the Socialist Party, with the blessing of the Italian Communist Party, has resulted in a national debt amount ing to more than two thousand billion Lire.
For det første en udvidelse af FN-kontingentets mandat, hvor UNAMIR befinder sig, og det skal være sådan, at disse FN-kontingenter kan gribe ind i flygtningelejrene for at skille dels de politiske ledere og de tidligere regeringsstyrker, dels flygtningene fra hinanden.
Clearly, if Italy is to be sure of qualifying for full entry into Europe by the rapidly approaching date laid down in the Maastricht Treaty and above all if our children are to enjoy a better future, financial policy has to be strict, while at the same time respecting the social rights of the citizen.
B4-0281/94 af Colajanni m.fl. for De Europæiske Socialdemokraters Gruppe om beskæftigelse og sociale rettigheder i Den Europæiske Union;
By implementing strict policies, with no shirking, it has been possible, in the social protection sector, to safeguard acquired rights fully and to start work on regulations for the preservation of rights which are in the process of being acquired.
For det andet skal der sættes yderligere fart i oprettelsen af en international domstol for at dømme dem, som er ansvarlige for folkedrabet. Det er en kompliceret sag, men en absolut forudsætning for processen med national
I would add, given the total concurrence with the joint motion for a resolution, that the particular references which it incudes should be seen as examples only, highly significant though they are, because there are so many other cases and situations in all our countries that could be added to those mentioned in the motion for a resolution. tion.
B4-0287/94 af Pronk m.fl. for Det Europæiske Folkepartis Gruppe om beskæftigelse og sociale rettigheder i Den Europæiske Union;
In these circumstances - familiar to everyone in Europe -we would draw attention to the opportunistic, demagogic and offensive quality of the statements contained in recital D and in paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 of this joint motion for a resolution, which we deplore and reject. We also
- ringen af den sociale beskyttelse ikke må føre til en sænkning af beskyttelsesniveauet.
the establishment of works councils in Community enter prises will not be transposed into the national legislation of all the Member States for two years and that it will need another three years to negotiate it.
B4-0320/94 af Camero González m.fl. for Den Europæiske Venstrefløjs Fællesgruppe om de sociale rettigheder i medlemsstaterne;
Does the Commission intend to wait five years before asking those responsible for economic decision-making in large multinational enterprises to observe, not just a code of conduct, but a code of honour towards employees, who are not merely a production factor, but also men and women?
B4-0324/94 af Lannoye for Gruppen De Grønne i Europa-Parlamentet om beskæftigelse og sociale ret tigheder.
Waddington (PSE). - Mr President, I wish to support this resolution and, in doing so, to draw attention to the threat to trade union rights that is causing concern in my own constituency.
Ewing (ARE). - (EN) Hr. formand, det glæder mig, at min gruppe er med i dette kompromis.
Read (PSE). - Mr President, I want to draw attention to two aspects in this resolution.
Det er et meget udtømmende beslutningsforslag.
One is the way in which trade union rights have been bought out by Caterpillar in a plant in my constituency.
Der gives eksempler på lukninger og trusler mod pensionerne.
The going rate for relinquish ing trade union rights is £500.
I andre lande som f.eks. mit eget, der har store problemer med sanering, træffes der socialt uretfærdige valg, der åbenlyst griber ind i velerhvervede pensionsrettigheder.
This company is currently cited by the neutral National Labour Relations Board in the United States as having committed 95 violations of Federal labour laws.
Der kræves utvivlsomt sanering, men denne sanering kan kun bygge på en overenskomst med fagforeningerne, som hos os har fungeret i et år, men nu er blevet brudt af regeringen.
Fourteen thousand workers have been out on strike there in defence of a trade union principle, and when they did the same in 1992, President Clinton was on the picket line with the workers.
Pronk (PPE). - (NL) Hr. formand, jeg er meget glad for, at det til sidst lykkedes os at fremsætte et fælles beslutningsforslag om dette emne.
They did this by changing the working agreements, and productivity consequently increased by over 30%.
Min gmppe har altid haft sine tvivl, om det nu også er så overordentligt gavnligt her i Parlamentet at tale om meget udtrykkelige tilfælde, navnlig hvor det drejer sig om virksomheder.
In exchange, the management promised the workers a shorter working week, better conditions and proper health and safety regulations.
Derfor er vi også i tvivl om, hvorvidt det var nyttigt at drøfte denne sag.
Those benefits were to come into force when the work had been done.
Men jeg må sige, at nu, hvor vi har gennemgået det hele systematisk, er der alligevel kommet et afbalanceret og godt beslutningsforslag ud af det.
Only last week the management announced that it was going to introduce further changes without consultation and to de-recognize the trade unions.
Jeg vil geme bruge min taletid til at koncentrere mig om et bestemt anliggende, som til dels er nævnt i kompromis et.
I should like to quote to you from the letter that President Clinton has written to Caterpillar in this current dispute.
Jeg glædede mig over, at kommissær Flynn i går fortalte Parlamentet, at det fravalg, Storbritannien havde fået lov til at foretage, når det gælder den europæiske socialpolitik, ville falde bort, når Maastrichttraktaten skal tages op på ny i 1996.
He says that he wants to challenge companies like Caterpillar that have been split by this issue - trade union principles - in the past to move forward to new chapters of cooperation and economic revitalization.
Da min gruppe tog til Stockholm i sidste uge, mødte vi ambassadører og repræsentanter for samtlige de politiske partier.
He says: 'I hope that spirit can be shown by both sides as you work through your current dispute'.
De gav alle udtryk for bekymring i forbindelse med udfaldet af den kommende folkeafstemning.
This is just one small example of the need for social protection in Europe.
De er alle bekymrede over muligheden for, at normerne skal blive sænket i henseende til regionalpolitikken, miljøet, kvindernes interesser og det sociale afsnit.
Daily in the United Kingdom we see the rights of workers threatened.
De har et socialt netværk af en meget høj standard, og de er bange for, at de på en eller anden måde skal komme til at lide skade på disse områder, hvis de skulle tilslutte sig Fællesskabet. Lad os se tingene i øjnene: Resultatet i Sverige vil påvirke resultatet i Norge.
In this Parliament we believe in social partnership, in governments, employers and trade unions working together for economic and social progress.
Det er faktisk vigtigt hele tiden på ny at gøre opmærksom på, at det er hensigten med Den Europæiske Union at bevare de sociale niveauer, som vi har tilvejebragt efter den anden verdenskrig, og det gøres i dette beslutningsforslag.
I ask this House to support this resolution and send a clear message back to the people we all represent that Europe means social protection for workers.
En række kolleger fra de lande, som har været taget op, vil tale om situationen i de enkelte lande.
There are to be a further 30 000 non-voluntary - compulsory - redundancies, which is going to weaken this central, fundamental industry in a completely unacceptable way.
Det er ikke min hensigt at komme yderligere ind herpå.
British Telecom is not going to be just leaner and fitter: it is going to be positively emaciated.
Alt i alt tror jeg på et afbalanceret beslutningsforslag med operationelle punkter, som kan omsættes til virkelighed, og som viser Forsamlingens beslutsomhed, når det drejer sig om også virkelig at bevare det europæiske markeds sociale dimension, som vi alle sammen har kæmpet så hårdt for.
There is example after example all over Europe of multinational companies wanting all the advantage of internationalism, but failing to accept the social responsibilities which this Parliament has consistently supported. I hope that you will approve the resolution. tion.
Ghilardotti (PSE). - (IT) Hr. formand, vi har fremsat dette uopsættelige beslutningsforslag både for at forhindre, at de smukke taler, der blev holdt under gårsdagens debat om Grønbogen om socialpolitikken skulle løbe ud i sandet - ikke skulle føre til undladelse af konkrete angreb på socialpolitikken i forskellige europæiske lande - og kalde Europa-Parlamentet og de øvrige institutioner til konkret handling, således at hver enkelt medlemsstat anvender unionens retningslinjer for socialpolitikken, for at bevare og styrke den samfundsmodel, som Jacques Delors plejer at udtrykke det den europæiske model, der er forskellig fra modellerne i USA og Japan.
Secchi (PPE). - (IT) Mr President, I should like to say a few words, on behalf of fellow Members of the Italian People's Party, to clarify our position and explain why we are voting for this motion for a resolution. Our position is consistent with the attitude held among parliamentary groups in our country towards the economic measures proposed by the Italian Government, which we consider to be open to criticism on many counts and which we are anxious to improve in a spirit of constructive opposition.
Lannoye (V). - (FR) Hr. formand, den 27. juli 1992 fremkom Rådet med en henstilling, hvori det udtrykkeligt og højtideligt udelukkede enhver tilbagegang i den sociale beskyttelse i forhold til den daværende situation.
Deprez (PPE). - (FR) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I asked to speak in this debate in order, along with Mrs Dury, to express my indignation at the way in which the head office of a British multinational decided the fate of 255 workers.
Det bekræftede nødvendigheden af garantier for opretholdelse, ja udvikling, af den sociale beskyttelse i det indre marked.
Effectively, the closure of this plant was announced by a press release, without prior notification or consultation, and no arrangements for the future were offered to the employees.
Hvad sker der i dag? Vi må konstatere, at situationen hastigt forværres.
I am sorry that there are people in my group who do not feel outrage at such situations.
Arbejdernes rettigheder er truet næsten overalt i Den Europæiske Union.
Let me point out to the Commissioner and the Commission that the directive on
Lannoye beslutninger tages kun sjældent i samråd med medarbejderne, og de skaber et utrygt klima blandt arbejdstagerne selvfølgelig, men ligeledes i hele befolkningen. Vi mener, at alt dette er uacceptabelt.
Van den Broek, Member of the Commission. - (NL) Mr President, the Commission is aware of the difficulties being experienced by many employees in the Union at the present time as a result of the recession and the need for many firms to carry out restructuring measures in order to survive in a climate of increasingly fierce competition.
Jeg kan give Dem nogle nylige eksempler.
one Member State of the European Union.
De figurerer iøvrigt i den fælles beslutning: British Telecom, det belgiske selskab Eurofonderie, der tilhører den britiske Lucas-koncem og lige så mange tilfælde, der er uacceptable. Denne praksis er fuldstændig i modstrid med ånden i socialpagten og med ånden i de to henstillinger, som jeg lige har talt om.
As Mr Flynn said yesterday morning, the Commission is anxious to see a return as soon as possible to a single legal framework for the Community's social policy, so that the fundamental principles and rules - which form an essen tial part of the European social model - can be honoured, safeguarded and developed further in all the Member States of the Union.
Den kompromisbeslutning, som min gruppe går ind for, er en afvejet beslutning, som hr. Pronk sagde det.
On the other hand the Commission also realizes that not everything can or indeed needs to be regulated at European level.
Den forkaster denne praksis, men vi mener, at det er nødvendigt at gå endnu videre.
There are considerable differences between the Member States in social traditions and customs and they sometimes face a wide range of problems.
Derfor foreslår vi en meget konkret ændring, som vi anmoder vore kollegaer om at vedtage.
So the Commission does not wish to interfere in the discussions now going on in one Member State about reforming its labour laws, provided those reforms do not offend against the principles and rules of Community law.
Den er meget konkret, for vi mener, at tiden er inde til at handle konkret og anvende de våben, som vi har til rådighed.
In other areas, such as trade union laws, the European Union cannot take action simply because there is no legal basis for it.
En morgen fik arbejderne at vide, at deres virksomhed var lukket, at de ville få løn i endnu en måned, og at de derefter måtte klare sig selv. Da de bad den internationale direktion om en forklaring, nægtede denne at diskutere med dem og sendte dem til direktionen i Gembloux.
The future development of the Union's social policy is of course dealt with in the White Paper approved by the Commission on 27 July this year, and we had a comprehensive debate on that with my colleague Mr Flynn yesterday morning in a special question time here in Parliament.
Da arbejderne og deres repræsentanter krævede, at direktionen skulle give penge til en social omlægningsfond, nægtede den dette, og det gør den stadig - i hvert fald for øjeblikket.
I should add that the Commission is grateful for the unswerving support it has received from the European Parliament over the introduction and develop ment of the Union's social policy.
Det første har at gøre med fænomenet flytning, og jeg mener, at det er vigtigt, at Kommissionen ser nøjere på dette problem og dets årsager: skattedumping, social dumping.
These and other questions will certainly be raised at the 1996 intergovernmental conference on revision of the Maastricht Treaty and the Commission hopes, indeed expects, that a satisfactory solution will be found to the question of the instruments available for use in all those areas where Community action is really needed.
Vejen vises nemlig af den neoliberalistiske politik, der ikke har kunnet give konkrete svar på krisen, men tværtimod ført til en yderst alvorlig situation i mange unionslande. Men lige så alvorligt er det, at regeringerne og den økonomiske magt i mange europæiske stater imødegår denne krise med meget hårde og vedvarende angreb på borgernes sociale rettigheder.
In a difficult and sometimes unstable climate the Union has already drafted a number of fundamental rules designed to give some degree of protection to workers who become unemployed or who suffer the consequences of current economic difficulties in some other way.
Det andet har at gøre med beskæftigelsen.
IN THE CHAIR: Mr MARTIN Vice-President
Når bare de også er deres ansvar bevidst!
President. - The joint debate is closed.
Det er, fordi der ikke er nogen jobs.
The vote will take place at 7.30 p.m.
(Bifald)
Rights
Lannoye (V). - (FR) Hr. formand, jeg tror, at jeg lige er blevet hængt ud for noget.
President. - The next item is the joint debate on the following motions for resolutions:
Jeg finder ikke en sådan anklage værdig for dette Parlament.
B4-0251/94 by Mr Bertens and others, on behalf of the Group of the European Liberal, Democratic and Reformist Party, on the danger of seeking to appease terrorism in the European Union;
