SCHMIDHUBER virtually in the European Parliament's hands alone.
Med dette budgetforslag ønsker Rådet udtrykkeligt at sende et signal om at spare til Europa-Parlamentet.
Its job will certainly be made easier if- as we all hope - the new interinstitutional agreement can be concluded as soon as possible.
Det er naturligvis forståeligt, at medlemsstaterne i betragtning af den desværre fortsatte økonomiske recession og deres egen kritiske budgetsituation gerne vil begrænse EF-budgettets vækst til det absolut nødvendige.
The progress in the negotiations on a new interinstitutional agreement gives some grounds for cautious optimism, given that it proved possible last week to reach preliminary agreement on some major points of difference.
som rådsformand være et forbillede, må det vise, at det virkelig mener det alvorligt med kampen mod hormonmafiaen, og derfor går jeg ind for en ny budgetpost, som sørger for den førnævnte koordinering og beskyttelse af forbrugerne på det område.
The recession has narrowed the financial room for manoeuvre in the Community and the situation will presumably remain the same for the next few years.
Så vil vi have gjort noget, som blandt vore borgere vil blive opfattet som omsorg for noget, der angår dem dagligt. Jeg vil gerne høre et positivt svar derpå, hr. rådsformand.
I get the impression that the Council is not even taking account of its own political priorities, which it set out in the new financial perspective in Edinburgh and on other occasions.
PAISLEY (NI). - (EN) Fru formand, budgettet for 1994 bør skræddersyes til at bekæmpe arbejdsløshedens svøbe.
The Council's draft budget does not form a viable basis for a genuine, realistic discussion with the European Parliament on the budgetary policy to pursue in 1994.
På det seneste rådsmøde betegnende man med rette arbejdsløsheden som et område, der kræver øjeblikkelige foranstaltninger på kort og mellemlangt sigt.
I could produce a whole list of cuts in the draft budget that are difficult to justify, but I will just give you a few particularly striking examples.
Efter mit indtryk har Rådet ikke engang taget hensyn til sine egne politiske prioriteringer, som det gav udtryk for i forbindelse med de nye finansielle overslag fra Edinburgh og også ved andre lejligheder.
If, as we hope, we can reach a final agreement on the new interinstitutional agreement by mid-October and there fore also on the new financial perspective, that will send out important positive signals for the further budgetary procedure.
En nedskæring af støtten i dette område vil få grusomme resultater, med ødelæggelsen af arbejdspladser og den stigende flugt fra landdistrikterne. Jeg gruer ved tanken om, hvad resultatet bliver, når 40-50 ansøgere kæmper om ét job i byområderne i provinsen.
The European Parliament and the Council will then have definite points of reference for the 1994 budget and it is to be hoped that this will considerably reduce the potential for conflict.
For en virkelig, saglig diskussion med Europa-Parlamentet om den budgetpolitik, der skal føres i 1994, danner Rådets forslag egentlig ikke noget bæredygtigt grundlag. Vi kunne her nævne en lang række nedskæringer i budgetforslaget, der er vanskelige at forklare, men jeg vil kun nævne visse særligt markante eksempler for Dem.
With or without a new interinstitutional agreement, I am confident that the European Parliament will take a realistic and responsible approach and draw up a 1994 budget that enables the Community to carry out its duties in full during times of economic difficulty.
På den politiske dagsorden i Fællesskabet og i medlems staterne står den foruroligende beskæftigelsessituation for øjeblikket øverst.
At present, the disturbing employment situation takes priority on the agenda of the Community and the Member States.
I Rådets forslag til budget for 1994 reduceres midlerne til den sociale dialog og beskæftigelsen dog til sige og skrive 11% af overslaget for 1993.
But in the Council's 1994 draft budget appropriations for the social dialogue and employment are actually cut to 11% of the 1993 amount.
Uddannelse og videreuddannelse spiller en væsentlig rolle i kampen mod den høje arbejdsløshed.
Training and further training have a major role to play in combating high unemployment.
I Rådets forslag nedskæres det pågældende kapitel med 10% i forhold til 1993.
In the Council's draft this chapter is cut by 10% compared to 1993.
Midlerne til EURYDICE-ARION stryges f.eks. fuldstændig, selv om undervisningsministrene jo kun en måned inden Rådets budgetafgørelse udtrykke ligt havde fremhævet dette netværks betydning for Fællesskabet. lesskabet.
The appropriations for the EURYDICE-ARION programme have been deleted entirely, even though only a month before the Council decision on the budget the ministers of education placed great emphasis on the importance of this network for the Community.
Regeringscheferne, rådene og fællesskabsinstitutionerne gør uafladeligt opmærksom på, hvor vigtigt det er at øge EF-polilikkens gennemsigtighed og al forbedre informeringen af offentligheden om Fællesskabet.
Heads of government, Councils of Ministers and the Community institutions are constantly pointing out how important it is to make Community policy more transparent and to improve the information to the public about the Community.
I Rådets budgetforslag nedskæres det pågældende kapitel imidlertid med ikke mindre end 32% i forhold til budgettet for 1993.
Yet in the Council's draft budget this chapter was cut by no less than 32% compared to the 1993 budget.
Eftersom Nordirland ikke vil modtage nogen som helst støtte fra Samhørighedsfonden, er provinsen alvorligt handicappet i forhold til Den Irske Republik.
I therefore wish to restrict myself to responding briefly to a number of speeches, stressing, for the benefit of Mr Wynn for instance, that the fact that resources are limited does not mean they are insufficient.
Hele strategien i forbindelse med 1994-budgettet bør sigte mod at overvinde og besejre denne svøbe.
We do not believe it is possible to advance on all fronts simultaneously.
Uden sådanne vil spildet i forbindelse med arbejdsløsheden spredes som en pest. Udviklingen i arbejdsløsheden skal vendes. Det må være den højeste prioritering i dette budget.
I would say to Mrs Napoletano that the financial perspective ceilings have been reached and all the institutions have had to restrict the growth in their budgets to 3%.
Vi er sikkert også alle klar over, at overslagene for administrationsbudgetterne for de institutioner, der ikke har det privilegium at være en del af budgetmyndigheden, er utilstrækkelige.
I am sure we all agree that the appropriations for the administrative budgets of those institutions which do not have the privilege of being part of the budgetary authority are also inadequate.
Yderligere midler er nødvendige, hvis gennemførelsen af Fællesskabets opgaver ikke skal trues i alvorlig grad.
Additional appropriations will have to be allocated unless the implementation of Community expenditure is to be seriously endangered.
I denne forbindelse vil jeg gerne minde om, at med Maastricht-Traktatens ikrafttrædelse får Fællesskabet omfattende nye opgaver, som i øvrigt ikke blev opfundet af Kommissionen, men derimod er baseret på politiske afgørelser fra medlemsstaternes side.
In this context, let me remind you that with the entry into force of the Maastricht Treaty, the Community will take on farreaching new tasks, which incidentally were not invented by the Commission but stem from political decisions taken by the Member States.
SCHMIDHUBER, medlem af Kommissionen. - (DE) Fru formand, mine damer og herrer, Rådet er med sit budget forslag for 1994 i væsentlig grad afveget fra Kommissionens foreløbige forslag til budget.
Mrs Goedmakers criticized all parts of the budget - apart, that is, from the EAGGF guarantee section budget. But you know the budget is limited in this respect by the ceiling on own resources.
Det har frem for alt foretaget drastiske nedskæringer i de ikke-obligatoriske udgifter til inden- og udenrigspolitiske foranstaltninger.
To those, notably Mr Wynn, who said the Council should take a closer interest in anti-fraud measures and make appropriate budgetary provision, I would point out that ECU 86m was set aside for this purpose in the preliminary draft budget for 1994, compared to ECU 82m in 1993.
Rådet udnytter ikke engang det halve af den maksimale forhøjelsessats for de ikke-obligatoriske udgifter, men ligger under den med 600 mio ECU for forpligtelsesbevillingernes vedkommende og 340 mio ECU for betalingsbevillingernes vedkommende.
This large amount is in line with the regulation setting up an integrated Community system of management and control, and I refer you in this connection to page 55 of document 8012/93 on the 1994 budget.
De kan ikke begrundes med Rådets nedskæringer i forbindelse med forpligtelsesbevillingerne og tager ikke hensyn til Fællesskabets eksisterende forpligtelser.
They cannot be justified by the Council's cuts to the commitment appropriations nor do they take account of the Community's existing commit ments.
Derudover bliver det samlede behov for betalingsbevillinger holdt kunstigt nede med en negativ reserve, hvis finansiering der ikke oplyses noget om. Med dette kunstgreb har man - i strid med
Moreover, the overall requirement in payment appropriations has been kept artificially low by means of a negative reserve in respect of which the Council has given no financing details.
I alt udgør de nedskæringer, som Rådet har foretaget i de af Kommissionen foreslåede forpligtelsesbevillinger, 900 mio ECU.
In response to Mr Pasty, I wish to stress that, contrary to what he suggested, account has been taken in the draft budget of the CAP reform's impact and the budgetary repercussions of the upheavals on foreign exchange markets that we have seen in recent times.
I forbindelse med betalingsbevillingerne
In conclusion, full note has been taken of all the speeches and all the suggestions and comments made, which I can
Der kan således ikke være nogen tvivl om, at Rådets budgetforslag kræver omfattende justeringer.
Bundesbank to stick to its counter-inflationary policies, which it was its job to do.
Den byrde, men også den chance, det er at udarbejde et godt budget for 1994, ligger nu praktisk talt alene hos Europa-Parlamentet.
But they also led it to stick to those counter-inflationary policies well beyond the start of the economic downturn in Europe.
Forhandlingernes stade i forbindelse med en ny interinstitutionel aftale giver anledning til en forsigtig optimisme, efter at det i den seneste uge er lykkedes at opnå en foreløbig enighed om visse vigtige spørgsmål, som man var uenige om.
And the ERM led the other monetary authorities to follow its tempo, which became increasingly inappropriate in a recession that was much deeper than had been generally expected.
Jeg vil slutte med at sige, at jeg har noteret mig alle de indlæg og alle de forslag og bemærkninger, som er fremkommet, og som - det kan jeg love Dem - vil blive viderebefordret til formanden for Rådet af budgetministre.
promise you will be conveyed to the President of the Budget Council.
Alle forslag med undtagelse af ét.
All the suggestions apart from one, that is.
Jeg vil gerne vende tilbage til det elskværdige og originale forslag fra det ærede medlem hr. Pasty, der anbefalede, at Europa-Parlamentet blev suspenderet, sendt på ferie eller gjort arbejdsløs indtil år 2000. Jeg tror ikke, at det er et forslag, vi bør tage op, for det ville bidrage til at forøge arbejdsløsheden i et Europa, der har gjort bekæmpelsen af arbejdsløsheden til et af sine højt prioriterede mål.
I refer to Mr Pasty's genial and original suggestion that the European Parliament might be sent on holiday, or laid off, until the year 2000.1 do not think that is a suggestion to be acted on, since it would add to unemployment in Europe, whereas combating unemployment has been made one of the Community's priorities.
Det Europæiske Monetære System
European Monetaiy System
FORMANDEN. - Næste punkt på dagsordenen er to redegørelser om Det Europæiske Monetære System og den økonomiske og monetære unions fremtid.
PRESIDENT. - The next item is the statements by the Council and Commission on the European Monetary system and the future of economic and monetary union.
Hvis vi - som tilstræbt - inden midten af oktober opnår en endelig enighed om den nye interinstitutionelle aftale og dermed også om de nye finansielle overslag, vil der derfra udgå vigtige og positive signaler til den videre budgetprocedure. Europa-Parlamentet og Rådet vil så have klare retningslinjer for budgettet for 1994.
MAYSTADT, President-in-Office of the Council. - (FR) Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, I think some light can be cast on the debate on the crisis that hit the European monetary system in July by making the point that one of the main reasons for our choice in favour of a single currency was the incompatibility, with its potential for causing destabilization at any time, between free movement of capital, stable exchange rates and freedom for each Member State of the Community to conduct its own economic and monetary policies independently.
Uanset om det bliver med eller uden en ny interinstitutionel aftale, har jeg tillid til, at Europa-Parlamentet med realitetssans og ansvarsfølelse vil opstille et budget for 1994, som gør det muligt for Fællesskabet fuldt ud at løse dets opgaver i økonomisk vanskelige tider.
In these circumstances, the ERM rules revealed certain perverse effects, since on the one hand the most virtuous currencies in terms of inflation had to be defended by higher interest rates, pushing real short-term rates to record heights despite the recession, while on the other the Bundesbank, obliged to intervene in support of the currencies under attack, had to inject liquidity, to adopt a course, in other words, that was diametrically opposed to its objective of combating inflation.
MAYSTADT, formand for Rådet. - (FR) Fru formand, mine damer og herrer, for at kaste lys over debatten om den krise, der rystede Det Europæiske Monetære System i juli i år, mener jeg, at det kan være nyttigt at erindre om en af de vigtigste begrundelser for vort valg af en fælles valuta, nemlig det modsætningsforhold - som har mulig hed for at virke destabiliserende når som helst - der består mellem fri bevægelighed for kapital og stabile valutaforhold og gennemførelsen af selvstændige økono miske og monetære politikker i alle Fællesskabets med lemsstater.
The Finance Ministers' aim in temporarily widening the fluctuation margins was to put an end to these perverse effects, on the one hand by deterring further risk-free speculative attacks and on the other be creating a degree of flexibility enabling Member States to take their specific domestic circumstances more fully into account.
URBAIN, formand for Rådet. - (FR) Fru formand, kære kolleger, mine damer og herrer, er det nødvendigt at sige, at jeg ikke har til hensigt i enkeltheder at komme ind på alle de betragtninger, der er blevet anstillet under denne interessante diskussion?
This diagnosis, I would remind the House, was set out straight away in the Delors committee report, which was the reference text for the negotiations on what was to become the Maastricht Treaty.
Er det nødvendigt at understrege, at den drøftelse, der netop har fundet sted, havde overskriften »forelæggelse af budgettet«?
There is therefore nothing surprising about this.
Det er klart, at debatten er langt fra at være afsluttet, eftersom den bør fortsætte i en ånd, præget af vilje til dialog og samarbejde, mellem Parlamentet og Rådet.
The main authors of the Treaty had stressed from the outset that the simultaneous coexistence of free movement of capital, stable exchange rates and monetary policies that remained independent was not possible.
Jeg vil derfor begrænse mig til - i telegramstil - at svare på det ene eller det andet indlæg, f.eks. ved med adresse til hr. Wynn at understrege, at om end midlerne er begrænsede, betyder dette ikke, at de af den grund er utilstrækkelige. Det er en almen betragtning.
Consequently, the events we have seen in recent months merely confirm, perhaps more quickly and on a greater scale than anticipated, that the diagnosis on which the Maastricht Treaty was actually based was correct.
Vi tror nemlig ikke, at det er muligt at rykke frem på alle fronter samtidig, og diskussionen har vist, at der er særdeles mange.
These events, as we see them, confirm that it is more necessary than ever to take the single European currency option.
Jeg vil gerne minde om, at denne diagnose lige fra første færd var blevet stillet i den rapport fra Delors-komitéen, der lå til grund for forhandlingerne om det, der skulle blive til Maastricht-Traktaten.
Consideration was given to other solutions which might perhaps have achieved the same result without widening the fluctuation margins across the board.
Det er derfor ingen over raskelse.
These solutions were rejected, for a variety of reasons.
Fra starten havde Traktatens vigtigste ophavsmænd understreget, at det ikke var muligt på samme tid at have frie kapitalbevægelser, stabile valutaforhold og monetære politikker, der fortsat skulle være uafhængige.
The merits of the compromise reached on 2 August should ultimately be assessed in the light of the other aspects of the decision which have not generally been given such prominence. On 2 August we decided to make the fluctuation margins much wider, and this of course was the most visible, the most spectacular aspect.
Det der er sket i de seneste måneder, bekræfter derfor kun - måske hurtigere og i et videre omfang end forudset -rigtigheden af den diagnose, som danner selve grundlaget for Maastricht-Traktaten.
But in that same decision we also stressed that this was a temporary measure; second ly, we emphasized that the present parity grid was being retained as the reference framework for Member States' economic and monetary policies; thirdly, we reaffirmed the need to continue the convergence process; and fourth ly, we reaffirmed adherence to the timetable and the ultimate objective of the Maastricht Treaty.
Og i vore øjne er begivenheder ne i de seneste måneder en bekræftelse af nødvendigheden af, at vi mere end nogen sinde bevæger os hen imod den fælles europæiske valuta.
Success on these various fronts will depend basically on two things: first, in the short term, our ability to manage the current situation on the basis of common discipline; secondly, our ability to prepare the way for the future of the single currency. It is therefore these two aspects that I wish to discuss now.
Fru Goedmakers har kritiseret samtlige budgettets sektorer, dog med undtagelse af budgettet for EUGFL, Garantisektionen.
The realignments made in the EMS in late 1992 and early 1993 have made for a parity grid that better reflects the economic fundamentals in the various Member States.
De ved imidlertid, at budgettet i denne henseende er begrænset af loftet over egne indtægter.
But there is no denying the fact that attainment of the conditions for closer harmonization of monetary policies is still being deferred and the systemic consolidation hoped for in connection with the second stage is still not in place.
I Maastricht-Traktaten har man forudset mindst tre elementer med henblik på at forsøge at imødegå dette modsætningsforhold i overgangsfasen.
First, how do we manage the new situation created by this widening of the margins? There is a clear risk, and you rightly draw attention to it in the motion for a resolution.
For det første godkendelse af en tidsplan og en sidste frist for overgangen til den endelige fase af den monetære union; for det andet kravet om en stærk konvergens og om økonomisk samordning med henblik på at fremme stabile valutaforhold ved økonomiske og monetære politikker, der er
This is the risk of the new margins undermining certain disciplinary rules linked to operation of the EMS, and it is therefore important to stress the need to persist with economic and monetary policies geared to keeping inflation lastingly under control. At the same time, we must make sure, as we have hitherto, I am happy to say, that we
Jeg vil endelig sige til dem, der har talt om dette emne, navnlig hr. Wynn, at Rådet burde interessere sig mere for bekæmpelsen af svig og lade dette komme til udtryk i budgetoverslagene.
It is in this context, it seems to me, that the more direct contributory factors in July's crisis are to be assessed. The persistent effects of German reunification led the
Jeg vil gerne understrege, at der i det
Debates of the European Parliament
Europa-Parlamentets forhandlinger
MAYSTADT focused more on the short term, on the years 1994 and 1995.
MAYSTADT tilstrækkeligt sammenhængende; for det tredje oprettelse af Det Europæiske Monetære Institut ved indledningen af anden fase.
In using each of these instruments, we must endeavour to strike a balance between the nominal convergence called for in the Treaty and the real convergence aimed at improving the performance of the European economy in terms of job creation.
Man må erkende, at disse tre elementer igennem et år har været sat på en hård prøve.
What this means in practice is that the convergence process must be sustained and the Member States must improve their coordination of economic policies.
Den omstændighed, at de tolv medlemsstater inden længe har ratificeret Traktaten, gør det muligt for det første element, tidsplanen, at genfinde en vis troværdighed.
Any contrary behaviour would compromise the temporary nature of the widening of margins and retention of the parity grid as the reference framework for Member States' economic policies.
grunde var det ikke muligt at vælge disse løsninger.
However, I am convinced that, while necessary, it is not sufficient.
Det er derfor om disse to punkter, jeg nu vil give visse oplysninger.
In this connection, I am delighted with the excellent cooperation that has been established with Parliament.
Men de har ligeledes foranlediget den til at fortsætte sin inflationsbekæmpende politik, længe efter at det konjunkturmæssige omslag i Europa har fundet sted.
Each will submit a convergence programme, or update the programme already submitted, on the basis of common macroeconomic assumptions.
Og valutakursmekanismen har fået de andre monetære myndigheder til at følge dette tempo, der blev mere og mere uhensigtsmæssigt i forhold til en recession, der var langt mere udtalt, end hvad man generelt havde ventet.
In the past we have found ourselves having to examine, almost simultaneously, convergence programmes based on different assumptions of growth in the Community.
Allerførst, hvordan skal vi håndtere den nye situation, der er opstået efter udvidelsen af udsvingsmargenerne?
This time we shall have programmes based on more consistent macroeconomic assumptions.
Det er klart, at der foreligger en risiko, og det understreger De med rette i beslutningsforslaget.
In addition, they will all have the same time frame.
Der foreligger en risiko for, at denne udvidelse af margenerne skal føre til en lempelse af visse regler for disciplinen, der er kædet sammen med Det Europæiske Monetære Systems funk tion, og det er derfor vigtigt at understrege, at vi fortsat skal iværksætte økonomiske og monetære politikker, der tager sigte på en varig styring af inflationen.
We have asked for all the programmes to focus on the end of 1996, since that is when the Treaty stipulates that the first assessment is to be made of Member States' ability to enter the final stage of monetary union.
