Der lader til at aftegne sig et mål: vi skal sørge for, at antallet af arbejdsløse i Fællesskabet halveres inden år 2000.
A single objective seems to emerge: to do whatever is necessary to ensure that the number of unemployed in the Community is halved by the year 2000.
En betingelse for at nå dette mål er en høj vækstrate på mindst 3,5%.
There is one precondition for achieving this objective: a strong growth rate of at least 3.5%.
Det har vi naturligvis slet ikke.
Of course we are very far from achieving that.
Vi må have de nødvendige midler til at nå dette mål, nemlig iværksættelse af en stabil makroøkonomisk ramme, hjulpet på vej af vor økonomis konkurrencedygtighed.
We must provide ourselves with the means to achieve this objective, namely to achieve a stable macroeconomic framework that is improved by the competitiveness of our economy.
Og endelig mangeartede beskæftigelsesfremmende aktioner. Det kan vi kun være enige i.
Finally, there must be multiple actions promoting employment.
Vi er enige, for det første fordi Kommissionen lægger en fast vilje for dagen, hvilket ikke altid er tilfældet på dette område.
We are agreed, first of all because the Commission is showing a firm will, something which is not always the case in this area.
Mange økonomer går snarere ind for laissezfaire og frihandel.
Many economists are rallying more to an attitude of laissez-faire and free trade.
Vi derimod går ind for en frivillig aktion, og hvordan kan man i øvrigt andet end gå bifalde den foreslåede lønnedgang?
We are in favour of voluntarist action. How could one fail to approve the proposed wage restraint?
Hvordan kan man andet end bifalde, at den foreslåede investering prioriteres højt?
How could one fail to approve the proposed priority on investment?
Hvordan kan man også andet end bifalde et nej til den foreslåede arbejdstidsnedsættelse?
How could one fail to approve the rejection of the proposed reduction in working time?
Hvordan kan man sige nej til lettelse af de skattemæssige eller sociale byrder, der hviler på de lave lønninger?
How could one reject the reduction of tax or social security charges that weigh down on low wages?
Alt det er vi enige i.
We can go along with all this.
Hvad, der måske kan indvendes, er, at disse forslag ikke er videre originale, og at der i det hele taget ikke er noget videre originalt i dette dokument.
But what we can perhaps object to is the fact that these proposals are not very original and that indeed nothing is very original in this document.
WIJSENBEEK (LDR). - (NL) Hr. formand, formålet med denne debat er, som der også henvises til i forespørgslen, at spørge Rådet om, hvad der egentlig vil blive drøftet her i Bruxelles.
WIJSENBEEK (LDR). - (NL) Mr President, the aim of this debate, as referred to in the questioning, is to learn from the Council exactly what will be discussed here in Brussels.
Naturligvis er den sociale og økonomiske situation, som de fleste kolleger har omtalt, det vigtigste emne.
Naturally, the socio-economic circumstances -as most of my colleagues have already pointed out - will comprise the main course.
Men vi bør nu have klar besked af Rådet - og i morgen vil vi tale detaljeret om de sociale og økonomiske spørgsmål - hvad der egentlig står på dagsordenen, og jeg vil egentlig gerne henlede opmærksomheden på det interguvernementale aspekt i debatten for, hr. formand, i overensstemmelse med procedurerne må vi helt klart konstatere, at der på dette område mildest talt hersker en anormal situation.
Well, tomorrow we will be hearing in detail about the socio-economic affairs, but now for once we simply must have a clear answer from the Council as to the full list of items on the agenda. I really wanted to devote rather more attention to the intergovernmental side of the debate because, Mr President, in view of the relevant procedures we must make it quite clear that, to put it mildly, there is an anomaly here.
Inden Det Europæiske Råd finder sted, bør Europa-Parlamentet have mulighed for at fremføre sin mening.
For before the European Council takes place, Mr President, the European Parliament should be given an opportunity to state its opinion.
For at sige det helt klart, så kan der ikke gøres noget i Rådet, før Parlamentet har afgivet sin udtalelse, og jeg skal henvise til artikel J.7 og artikel K.6 i Maastrichttraktaten eller traktaten om Den Europæiske Union, hvori der står, at formandskabet skal høre Europa-Parlamentet om de vigtigste aspekter af aktiviteterne på de i disse artikler nævnte områder, og der er altså både tale om artikel J om udenrigspolitikken og artikel K om indre anliggender.
Put more strongly, nothing can be done in the Council before Parliament has given its opinion, and I would point out that both Article J.7 and Article K.6 of the Maastricht Treaty or the Treaty on European Union state the following: the Presidency shall consult the European Parliament on the principal aspects of activities in the areas referred to in this Title, and that applies both in Article J on foreign policy and in Article K on home affairs.
Ordret står der: »Formandskabet påser, at der tages behørigt hensyn til Europa-Parlamentets synspunkter«.
Let me reiterate: 'The Presidency (...) shall ensure that the views of the European Parliament are duly taken into consideration'.
Min første bekymring vedrører valutaspørgsmålet. I dette dokument tales der kun lidt om valuta.
My first concern centres on currency.
Vi ved dog, at den havde en vigtig plads i Punta del Este.
Yet we know that it occupies an important position in Punta del Este.
Det taler man ikke længere om.
There is no longer any mention of it.
Vi er dog klar over, hvor meget valutaspekulationer kan tynge økonomien, hvad enten der er tale om interne eller eksterne spekulationer.
However, we are aware of the impact that monetary manipulations can have on our economy, whether these manipulations are internal or external.
Jeg vil gerne spørge Rådets formand, hvorledes han opfatter sætningen »at der tages behørigt hensyn til Europa-Parlamentets synspunkter«, og hvorledes han mener at kunne reagere på Parlamentets ønsker, når visse kolleger som hr. Tindemans og Cot og også fru Dury siger, at vi har egentlig ikke brug for en beslutning, medens andre grupper netop siger, at Parlamentet skal give udtryk for sine synspunkter i en beslutning, som der kan stemmes om, for ellers kan rådsformanden ikke gøre sit arbejde den 10. og 11. december.
I would now like to hear from the President-in-Office of the Council what he understands by 'duly taken into consideration', and how he envisages expressing the feelings of Parliament when Messrs Tindemans and Cot, and in their wake Mrs Dury, say that there is no real need for a decision, while other groups have just said 'no.
For hvordan kan han ellers videregive Parlamentets synspunkter på en tilfreds stillende måde?
Parliament expresses its opinions in a decision on which a vote has been taken, because otherwise the President-in-Office of the Council will be unable to do his work on 10 and 11 December'.
Min anden bekymring vedrører vort Fællesskabs internationale handel, dvs. GATT-spørgsmålet.
My second concern centres on the international commercial environment of our Community, namely the GATT problem.
Der vil stå multilateral handel uden kontrol og sanktioner for døren til vort ubeskyttede Fællesskab.
The Commission talks of a new multilateral trade organ
Men det må vi høre Domstolen om, men jeg vil tro, at selv helt almindelige dommere klart vil sige, at hvis vi ikke på eget initiativ havde haft denne debat her, så kunne der ikke være tale om en retsgyldig rådsbeslutning.
That is not the case, Mr President, but it is true to say that we want to bear our responsibility.
Hr. rådsformand, tror De ikke, at vi må lytte og tage hensyn til befolkningernes protester og ønsker?
There are still a number of other matters that I actually wanted to raise.
Tiden er ikke længere til halve forholdsregler og bluff, men helt anderledes prioriteringer. Beskæftigelsen må blive det prioriterede mål for alle fællesskabspolitikkerne.
In any case I would like to point out that the Dublin convention must now finally be ratified by all members of the European Union.
Det er efter min mening en helt anden tankegang, der skal til for at fremme et reelt økonomisk opsving og beskæftigelsen. Vi bør beslutsomt gå ind for det europæiske vækstinitiativ og opgive konvergenskriterierne, som skaber økonomisk tilbagegang.
I would like to point out that we should all have a passport and an identity card, and in memory of the late President of this Parliament, Mr Cornelius Berkhouwer, I would also like to say that our citizens should have a Community driving licence, stamps and passport.
Endvidere bør vi med større beslutsomhed tage hensyn til beskæftigelses- og uddannelsesproblemerne samt bevarelsen og moderniseringen af de offentlige tjenesteydelser.
But there is another aspect, too. It begins with the fact that the Council has not once really consulted us and that the President-in-Office of the Council should really have done so and must still put it to us.
Vi bør også få kapitalbevægelserne under kontrol og virkelig beskatte kapital, for at pengene går til produktion og tilfredsstillelse af behovene og ikke til spekulation.
I am still waiting to hear how the President-in-Office of the Council will actually answer that. In actual fact, he should first have submitted to us what the basis of the debates in the Council was, and, as Mr de la Malene has just said, we can pick up bits here and there, we can read something in the press that ministers have said and the piece by Delors is worthless, but what is really on the agenda now, how it is debated and how the ministers then sit down and consult each other, that is something we do not know.
Endelig bør vi bekræfte kravet om en proces til nedsættelse af arbejdstiden, uden at det går ud over lønmodtagernes indkomst.
Put in much stronger terms, I would like to point out, Mr President, that if we had not organized this debate here at our own initiative, then the Council would probably not have been able to adopt a legally valid decision.
Jeg tror, hr. formand, at det haster, og at vi må tage os vores del af ansvaret.
One more question, Mr President, regarding the languages used in the patent office.
Som vi har forstået det, skal Det Europæiske Råd opstille prioriteter vedrørende retssamarbejdet.
If, at least, you read articles J.7 and K.6 closely, then the Council cannot make legally valid decisions unless we have given our opinion.
Og dette betyder, at vores politibetjente får alle muligheder for at operere også uden for landets grænser.
How ever, did the people in Maastricht - who did this to an even greater extent - say that there is no possibility of appealing to the European Court of Justice in order to have this matter sorted out?
Men hvis der ikke sker andet, end at der bliver udarbejdet en masse kartoteker, og jeg er glad for, at det sker henne om hjørnet, og jeg vil snart gå hen og se på det, men dette er ikke en parlamentarisk kontrol.
I am pushing for the jurisprudence of the Court of Justice because I hold its judges in very high regard, and I would refer to the fact that the isoglucose ruling back in 1980 clearly indicated that where Parliament should be consulted and has not given its opinion, no legally valid decision is made.
Jeg mener, at vi bør have ret til at give vores mening til kende, vi går ind for målsætningen for en fælles politipolitik, men vi ønsker at udøve en parlamentarisk kontrol.
Now we cannot run to the European Court of Justice with this matter, but I think that even a normal judge would be sufficiently capable of saying something.
CLAES, formand for Rådet. - (NL) Hr. formand, kære kolleger, først og fremmest synes jeg, det er nyttigt at fortælle hr. Wijsenbeek, at Det Europæiske Råd ikke har og aldrig har haft en dagsorden.
PIQUET (CG). - (FR) I would rather we did not tell each other any tales during this debate.
Formanden for Rådet sender en skrivelse til sine kolleger og foreslår visse emner, men der er intet, der forhindrer, at andre emner bliver behandlet i Rådet.
Community authorities and national governments both recognize the gravity of the situation: the economic recession that is taking hold in the long term, the steady rise in unemployment, the poor and the excluded whose ranks are constantly grow ing.
Sådan forholder det sig, og det beder jeg Dem tage ad notam.
However, one question arises: How did this situation come about?
Der er også nogle andre spørgsmål, som jeg gerne ville være kommet ind på.
In my opinion, this situation is the result of policies of austerity and rigour implemented in the Member States.
Jeg vil i hvert fald gøre opmærksom på, at Dublin-konventionen nu omsider bør ratificeres af alle medlemmer af Den Europæiske Union.
Nevertheless, instead of learning a lesson from this situation and from this failure, the Commission and the Council are persevering in their pursuit of the same policy.
Endnu et spørgsmål, hr. formand, vedrørende sprogene i varemærkekontoret.
Yet everyone has noticed that the people are reacting strong ly.
Forholder det sig virkelig sådan, som hr. Lubbers netop har sagt, at hr. Dehaene ikke ønsker at høre nederlandsk der, at den belgiske premierminister Dehaene vil skubbe nederlandsk ud i mørket, og at hr. Lubbers har tilsluttet sig dette?
Strikes and demonstrations are becoming more frequent in many Member States in defence of employment, purchasing power and social acquis. Can we continue to act while ignoring this reality and the will of the people?
Min opgave her er at lytte til Dem og Deres kolleger.
Mr President-in-Office, do you not consider it necessary to take heed and account of the protests and desires of the people?
Og i morgen, så vidt jeg ved, vil kommissionsformanden være til stede her.
This is no time for half-measures or pretence; we need a genuine reversal of priorities.
Han kommer ikke for at hvile sig ud, men for at lytte til Dem.
Employment must become the priority objective of any Community policy.
Det er klart, at vi er villige til at tage hensyn til Parlamentets udtalelser og standpunkter.
In my opinion, we must follow a completely different logic in order to contribute towards a genuine recovery of the economy and to develop employment.
Hvis De måske har ringe tillid til medlemmerne af Rådet eller Kommissionen, som har kontakt med Parlamentet, lad mig så minde Dem om, at ethvert europæisk Råd - og sådan har det været i længere tid - begynder med en redegørelse fra formanden for Europa-Parlamentet.
We must also show greater determination in taking account of the problems of employment and training, as well as maintaining and modernizing public services.
Hvis De mener, at vi ikke tager tilstrækkeligt hensyn til Deres budskab, så kan De måske gøre det på den måde, at De giver Deres formand i opdrag at overbringe Deres bud skaber til Det Europæiske Råd, når han som den første tager ordet, og jeg kan forsikre Dem om, at alle vil lytte opmærksomt.
In addition, we should gain control over the movement of capital, and tax it in real terms so that money goes towards production and the fulfilment of needs, rather than towards speculation.
Jeg synes, at De præsenterede tingene på en noget ensidig måde, og Deres bekymring om, at Kommissionen og Rådet ikke skulle tage tilstrækkeligt hensyn til Europa-Parlamentets udtalelser og forslag, er ubegrundet.
Lastly, we should affirm the requirement to implement a process to reduce working time without affecting workers' incomes.
PIQUET (CG). - (FR) Jeg ville ønske, at der ikke var nogen, der fortalte historier i denne debat.
This, at last, brings me on to the matter itself, to the fact that the European Council - at least as far as we are aware - is going to set priorities in the area of cooperation in the field of justice.
Fællesskabs myndighederne og de nationale regeringer erkender situationens alvor, den økonomiske tilbagegang, der kommer til at vare ved, arbejdsløsheden, der fortsætter med at stige, og det stadig større antal fattige og udstødte.
Precisely in that field, it is of the greatest importance - for our voters, too - that we let our opinion be heard, because for us the fact that the Council is now going to set something in motion as far as police cooperation is concerned is of the greatest importance, for we, too, are in favour of our citizens having freedom of movement - including, therefore, those citizens who want to get up to mischief.
Men et spørgsmål trænger sig på: Hvad er årsagen til denne situation? Denne situation skyldes efter min mening medlemsstaternes strenge sparepolitik.
Consequently, the people paid out of public funds to prevent those who are of a mind to get up to mischief from doing so should also have freedom of movement.
Men i stedet for at tage ved lære af denne situation, denne modgang, bliver Kommissionen og Rådet hårdnakket ved med at føre den samme politik.
However, if this means merely putting together all kinds of files - and I am happy that this is happening round the corner from where I live, and as a Member of Parliament will go in and to see what is happening - then that is still not subject to parliamentary control.
De fastholder, at de lægger vægt på konvergenskriterier, der kvæler de nationale budgetpolitikker.
I believe that we must be given the right to contribute our opinion on this and we are therefore in favour of the objectives of a common policy on police matters, but we certainly want to exercise some parliamentary control.
Hvad angår debatten i aften, hr. formand, så indrømmer jeg, at jeg er i en noget vanskelig stilling.
I believe, Mr President, that time is of the essence and that we must assume our responsibilities.
CLAES millioner arbejdsløse, som forskellige talere omtalte, i hvert fald ikke har nogen gavn af.
CLAES, President-in-Office of the Council - (NL/FR) Mr President, Members of the House, it would seem useful for me to begin by saying for the benefit of Mr Wijsenbeek that a European Council has no agenda and has never had one.
I hvert fald vil jeg understrege, at der efter min personlige beskedne vurdering ikke findes nogen mirakelformel for de store udfordringer, som vi i dag står overfor.
It is the President of the Council who sends out a letter to all his colleagues and proposes certain topics, but there is nothing to prevent other topics being raised in the course of the Council meeting itself.
(FR) Tillad mig at sige, hr. Piquet, at De heller ikke har foreslået en mirakelkur for at imødegå den strukturelle krise, som ikke blot Europa, men hele verden er konfronteret med.
At the same time - and I will return to this in a moment - you rightly pointed out the necessary parallel that must exist between subsidiarity, on the one hand, and solidarity, on the other solidarity being an ethnic value which I believe to be a fundamental aspect of Western civilization.
Man må gøre sig klart, at der er visse elementer, som har ændret sig totalt, og som nødvendiggør en radikal revision, ikke blot af vore politikker, men også af vore strategier.
I can assure you, Mr Tindemans, that as far as the Presidency is currently concerned, we shall do everything we possibly can to check a stronger intergovernmental approach and to try and find solutions to the challenges you listed which point in the direction of the integral consolidation of European integration.
Dagen derefter vil Rådet om generelle anliggender eventuelt viderebehandle disse emner for således at skabe forudsætningerne for, at der kan træffes effektive beslutninger i Det Europæiske Råd.
If you lack confidence in those members of the Council or of the Commission who have contact with Parliament, then I would like to remind you that for some time now each European Council meeting has begun with a statement by the President of the European Parliament.
Naturligvis vil formanden for Kommissionen i morgen kunne give Dem mere præcise oplysninger.
If you are of the opinion that we are airing your opinions to an insufficient extent, then perhaps you have a more reliable element, consisting of burdening your President with the task of bringing across your views to the European Council where he is always the first person to take the floor, and I can assure you that his words are most attentively listened to.
Under alle omstændigheder har formanden for Det Europæiske Råd, den belgiske premierminister, hr. Dehaene, besøgt de forskellige hovedstæder for at klarlægge de store linjer i de beslutninger, der vil kunne træffes på mødet den 10. og 11. december.
I think that you have presented things rather one-sidedly and needlessly expressed your concern about the manner in which the Commission and Council supposedly neglect to take account of the advice and suggestions made by the European Parliament.
Inden Kommissionen indleder sine endelige drøftelser både om artikel 103 og om hvidbogen, vil der blive afholdt et nyt møde mellem formandskabet og Kommissionen. Jeg beder Dem undskylde, at jeg ikke allerede i dag kan gå i detaljer om dokumenter, som vi endnu ikke har kendskab til.
I already mentioned Article 103.
(NL) Der er i hvert fald forskellige elementer, som man ikke kan tilsidesætte. Tidligere på eftermiddagen drøfte de formandskabet og Kommissionen sammen med den amerikanske statssekretær Christopher og med hr. Kantor de problemer, som liberaliseringen af verdenshandelen indebærer.
This is the very first time that we are having to implement this article, and I admit that we are looking in a slightly clumsy and definitely uncertain manner for the best way in which to actually try and invite the heads of state and prime ministers to shed some light on these options together.
Jeg vil heller ikke indlade mig på forudsigelser ligesom OECD.
In any case, it is a fact that in this case Article 103 and the White Paper cannot be viewed separately.
Vi må stræbe efter, at der gennem disse aftaler gives nye impulser til udviklingen i Europa.
They must form a single whole, whereby the short term joins up with the long term.
Men hvorom alting er, vil jeg begynde med at bekræfte, hvad hr. Tindemans sagde i sin redegørelse. Det er utvivlsomt rigtigt, at de europæiske institutioner har reageret for trægt og endnu reagerer for trægt på de store udfordringer i vor tid.
Both will have to form a single strategy, otherwise I fear that we risk partly missing our first rendezvous with the Maastricht Treaty, at least as far as its first pillar is concerned.
Den strukturbetingede arbejdsløs hed, den almindelige følelse af usikkerhed og problematikken omkring migration og indvandring.
This is an initial difficulty which should not be underestimated, and with which the Commission, incidentally, is also faced.
Som hr. Tindemans mener jeg, at Europa er i færd med at miste sin troværdighed, og at det er på høje tid, at der bliver truffet strukturelle beslutninger.
How exactly should this Article 103 be interpreted in this structurally difficult period of crisis and recession? How should we approach it?
Det er rigtigt, at mødet i Det Europæiske Råd er en fremragende lejlighed, som jeg håber man vil udnytte, og jeg kan i hvert fald forsikre hr. Tindemans om, at formandskabet vil gøre sit yderste for at skabe de nødvendige forudsætninger for, at der kan træffes en yderst vanskelig beslutning, som kan styrke Europas troværdighed, og som kan give håb om en løsning på de store problemer og udfordringer, som De med rette har henvist til.
Listening to President Delors and other members of the Commission, I think I can nonetheless say that it is not the Commission's intention to come up with some kind of legislative programme, even if there is a concern to avoid falling into an abstract, academic discussion which will ultimately not be of much use to the 17 million unemployed already mentioned by several speakers.
De henviste også til, at der nødvendigvis må være en forbindelse mellem subsidiaritet og solidaritet, solidaritet og etiske værdier, som efter min mening er et grundlag for Vestens civilisation.
Nevertheless, I would like emphasize that in my own modest opinion there are no miracle cures for the great challenges confronting us today.
