Oreja Aguirre. - (ES) Jeg vil gerne sige til Dem, hr. von Habsburg, at jeg er særlig følsom over for Deres omtale af den traditionelle musik.
Subject: Transmission of major sporting events by terrestrial television in the EU
Jeg ville være endnu mere beroliget, hvis vi på baggrund af utilstrækkeligheden i det, der politisk er gjort indtil nu, kunne forstærke indsatsen på de innovative områder.
Can the Commission inform Parliament of any progress made in discussions with Member States with a view to drawing up a list of major national and international sporting events, such as the.Five Nations Rugby, the Open Golf and Wimbledon, which remain available to all EU citizens?
Hvad angår Det Europæiske Musikår, så husker jeg meget tydeligt, at da jeg sad i samme sæde, men i en anden funktion, i Europarådet, blev Det Europæiske Musikår lance ret.
In the Contact Committee, there has been much discus sion about the application of Article 3a, and so far the Commission has not received any official notification from the Member States.
Det blev faktisk en stor succes, netop fordi man ikke kun forsøgte sig med det højkulturelle, men fordi man også forsøgte at nå respekten for denne kulturelle mangfoldighed. foldighed.
Nevertheless, the Commission is aware that the vast majority of Member States - if not all of them - have adopted or plan to adopt measures to guarantee wide public access to television coverage of major events, and we hope to receive the relevant notifications during 1998.
Oreja Aguirre. - (ES) Jeg mener rent faktisk, at man skal forsøge at få indgået sådanne aftaler.
Oreja Aguirre, Member of the Commission. - (ES) In the codecision procedure for the amendment of the 'Television without frontiers' directive, Parliament approved an amendment aimed at guaranteeing public access to specific sporting events of special importance through openaccess television throughout the whole European Union.
I dette øjeblik, fra i dag og frem til den 1. februar, og i særdeleshed inden for rammerne af dette store forum, så er dét, vi især gerne vil, at lytte.
Nevertheless, when I heard Parliament's idea of including the possibility of guaranteeing public access to such events, I thought it was interesting, and made a note of it immediately. ately.
Det skal vi tage i betragtning, og for det program, som vi skal forelægge den 1. maj, vil jeg notere mig dette ønske, der er blevet givet udtryk for, og som jeg kan stå helt inde for.
As far as the three events you men tion are concerned, the United Kingdom will need to propose them on the list it presents to the Commission, and the Commission will have to judge whether they are in deed major sporting events.
Formanden. - Spørgsmål nr. 57 af Hugh McMahon (H1001/97):
That, therefore, is the method set out in the Directive.
Om: Transmission af større sportsbegivenheder via landbaseret TV i EU
It is not, I repeat, a harmonization
Det skal man ikke gøre inden for visse områder, og slet ikke inden for kulturen.
Finally, the Commission must give its approval and make sure Community law is not contravened.
Det, vi gerne vil, er således at henvende os til skuespillerne, til de skabende, til digterne, til kunstnerne, til parlamentsmedlemmerne, til regeringerne, således at vi i fællesskab inden for den ramme, som dette forum skal være, kan modtage idéer.
Because agreement was not reached following the second reading, there was a conciliation phase, during which it was established - and I agreed - that it was not possible to obtain what could be termed a harmonized list of major events at Community level.
De kan også være sikker på, at jeg før den formelle forelæggelse den 1. maj vil forsøge at mødes med Kulturudvalget for at ud veksle synspunkter om dette emne.
It was important to acknowledge in some way the opinion of those in favour of openaccess retransmissions of events, but some of us (myself included) thought it was impossible to have a harmonized list of events at Community level.
Kommissionen bedes oplyse, om der er sket frem skridt i drøftelserne med medlemsstaterne om udarbejdelse af en liste over større nationale og internationale sportsbegivenheder, som f.eks.
McMahon (PSE). - Mr President, I thank the Commissioner for his very full explanation - 6 minutes 47 seconds worth of an answer; a very full and comprehensive an swer.
Oreja Aguirre, medlem af Kommissionen. - (ES) Ved den fælles beslutningsprocedure for ændringen af direkti-
What is obvious from his answer and, perhaps should be underlined, is that no Member State has sent him any in-
Jeg synes, at det spørgsmål, De har bragt frem, er vigtigt, og jeg ville gerne selv konkret fremlægge det med præcise løsninger, når vi har et bedre udkast til det rammeprogram, som vi vil fremlægge endeligt den 1. maj.
For that reason, the new Directive contains provisions to guarantee that Member States can adopt measures to protect the right to information, and ensure wide public ac cess to television coverage of national or non-national events of major importance to society.
Oreja Aguirre af andre medlemsstater i overensstemmelse med denne procedure.
McMahon of less interest in Spain or Greece.
Endelig vil jeg gerne erindre om, at det nye direktiv blev offentliggjort og trådte i kraft den 30. juli 1997.
formation. Is he going to put some pressure on Member States to give him information, to give him a list?
Og med lemsstaterne har indtil den 31. december 1998 til at gen nemføre det i deres respektive nationale lovgivninger.
How of ten does he envisage this committee meeting and would he invoke the infringement procedure if Member States do not give him a list?
Jeg havde ikke taget dette med i direktivforslaget.
Subject: Commission study on children and advertising
I Kontaktudvalget har der været en omfattende diskussion af anvendelse af artikel 3 bis og indtil dato har Kommissionen ikke modtaget nogen officiel anmeldelse fra med lemsstaterne.
This is the third time I have asked Commissioner Oreja a question about the study, repeatedly promised by the Commission, on the effects of advertising on minors.
Kommissionen har dog kendskab til, at størstedelen af medlemsstaterne - hvis ikke alle - har vedtaget eller påtænker at vedtage foranstaltninger til sikring af en bred adgang for offentligheden til fjernsynsdækning af de store begivenheder, og den håber at modtage disse an meldelser i løbet af 1998.
Other independent studies have shown that children cannot be classified as consumers, on .the grounds that they are unable, until the age of 12 on average, to distinguish an advertising message from objective information.
Som konklusion og konkret som svar på hr. McMahons meget specifikke spørgsmål, kan jeg sige til ham, at i for bindelse med de tre begivenheder, som han nævner, skal Det Forenede Kongerige foreslå disse begivenheder på den liste, som forelægges for Kommissionen, som så skal vurdere, om de opfylder betingelsen for store sportsbegivenheder.
As for the Contact Committee, we thought it was a good idea for the Commission to be able to consult, rather than act in isolation. Whom should we consult?
Og i sidste in stans er det Kommissionen, som skal godkende og efter prøve, at der er overensstemmelse med fællesskabsretten.
And obviously, if a Member State fails to respect the Commission's decision, the appropriate steps will be taken.
Og de eksempler, som vi plejer at give, er De Olympiske Lege, Verdensmesterskabet i fodbold og Europamesterskabet i fodbold.
However, I am subject to certain limitations, and the Commission has undertaken to do this within a given timescale.
De består i et system, som kaldes gensidig anerkendelse, og som går ud på at undgå, at man kan unddrage sig nationale foranstaltninger, som sikrer adgang til fjernsynstransmission af vigtige begivenheder. Og dette system fungerer i tre faser:
The Ryder Cup which, as you know, was held in Spain for the very first time recently, is probably the only competition where al most the entire population of Europe actually cheers for Eu rope.
Det fremgår tydeligt af hans svar, og det bør måske frem hæves, at han ikke har modtaget oplysninger fra nogen medlemsstat.
Oreja Aguirre. - (ES) Mr Cunningham, I may have my own opinion about what you are asking -1 think it is an important event - but at the moment I would prefer not to answer you in a personal capacity.
Vil han lægge pres på medlemsstaterne for at få oplysninger, en liste?
At the moment, we have to wait for the various Member States to send in their lists.
Hvor ofte regner han med, at sådanne møder vil finde sted, og vil han iværksætte over trædelsesprocedurer, hvis medlemsstaterne ikke giver ham en liste?
Once the lists have arrived, the Commission will consult the Contact Committee, and having received their reply and taken account of it, will adopt a decision.
Oreja Aguirre. - (ES ) Hr. McMahon, en medlemsstat er ikke forpligtet til at indsende en liste.
It is a question of restrictive criteria, but that does not mean that important events will not be included.
En medlemsstat kan vælge ikke at indsende en liste.
And something else I think is important is that an event which is important in one country may not be so in another.
Det er dens eget pro blem.
Think of the Derby for instance.
Men der er ikke noget, der forhindrer, at en medlemsstat beslutter, at den ikke vil medtage nogen begivenheder på listen.
Obviously, that is a very important event in the United Kingdom, but it is probably
Kommissionen skal kontrollere, om de overholder fællesskabsretten og anmode om en udtalelse fra et udvalg, som er skabt med dette direktiv, kaldet Kontaktudvalget for repræsentanterne for medlemsstaterne.
Unfortunately, the study cannot be started in 1998 (although that is what I would have preferred) because the budgetary authority (and Mrs Ahlqvist knows what I mean by that) has cut the appropriations proposed by the Commission for this sort of study.
Jeg vil derfor ikke gøre noget.
Therefore, I would hope to have results during that year, or very early in 2000 at the latest.
Men det kan godt ske, at en medlemsstat ikke indsender en liste - jeg
Therefore, we should com plete this study in time to include it in the application re port mentioned in Article 26.
Oreja Aguirre tragtes som forbrugere, eftersom de under 12-års alderen i gennemsnit ikke kan skelne mellem et reklamebudskab og en objektiv information.
Oreja Aguirre work with ASEAN until Burma's position within that group is clarified.
Kan Kommissionen oplyse, hvor langt den er kommet med denne undersøgelse?
With regard specifically to human rights and democracy, the Commission has set up a Europe-Burma office in Brussels, with the aim of raising public awareness about what is happening in that country.
Hvornår kan den, selv uformelt, redegøre for undersøgelsen f.eks. i Kulturudvalget? get?
Another aim is to train future leaders, if possible, and to help the Burmese opposition. sition.
Men i sidste instans er det Kommissionen, som træffer afgørelsen.
I know the Commissioner is in favour of carrying out this study.
Og såfremt en afgørelse fra Kommissionen ikke respekteres af en medlemsstat, vil den relevante procedure selvfølge lig blive indledt.
I have never before received an answer which is so definite about the timing as that it will be done in 1999.1 am therefore grateful for the reply.
Cunningham (PSE). - (EN) Jeg har et ganske kort spørgsmål.
Overall, the funding is approximately ECU 950,000.
Det er sand synligvis den eneste konkurrence, hvor næsten hele den europæiske befolkning hylder Europa.
However, in Sweden there is growing irritation about and criticism of children's advertising.
Til trods herfor blev Ryder Cup i Det Forenede Kongerige vist via satellit, hvor de fleste ikke havde adgang til at følge opgøret. Hvordan passer Ryder Cup ind i dette særlige scenario?
People are calling for boycotts and think that something must be done.
Oreja Aguirre, medlem af Kommissionen. - (ES) Jeg tror, at jeg kort kan besvare fru Ahlqvists spørgsmål.
- Questions addressed to Mr Marin
Jeg vil gerne gentage over for fru Ahlqvist det, som jeg sagde til hende sidste gang.
Theorin (PSE). - (SV) I am grateful for this clear position from the Commission.
Jeg forstår så udmærket hendes bekymring, som jeg fuldt ud deler.
We do not have a difference of opinion.
Jeg har nu en gang de begrænsninger, jeg har, og det er et ansvar, som Kommissionen har påtaget sig inden for en bestemt frist.
We do not think Burma fulfils the criteria which must exist in order to be able to have economic and trade relations and to have customs privileges for this country.
Det vil sige, at Kommissionen skal gennemføre denne revision senest den 31. december i år 2000.
This is very important since there are European companies, probably also in my own country, which are currently considering whether to start investing in Burma, which would be very serious if it happened.
Hvad skal den lave?
President. 0965/97)
En betænkning om opfyldelsen af direkti vet, hvor de pågældende tilpasningsforslag eventuelt kan indgå.
Subject: The situation in Burma
Oreja Aguirre. - (ES) Hr. Cunningham, jeg kan have et kriterium med hensyn til det spørgsmål, De stiller mig.
In the US there has been a ban on new investments since May 1997 because the situation in Burma has not changed.
Jeg mener, at det er en vigtig begivenhed, men jeg vil ikke så gerne på dette tidspunkt give et individuelt svar.
The EU now has access to the legal framework and the possibility of using economic pressure.
For nærværende skal vi vente på én ting, nemlig at listerne fra de forskellige medlemsstater kommer.
It is there fore important that the EU now leads the way and shows the political will.
Når listerne fra de forskellige medlemsstater er kommet, vil Kommissionen høre Kontaktudvalget, modtage et svar herfra, og på bag grund af dette svar vil Kommissionen træffe en beslutning. ning.
It is good that the Commission is entirely in agreement with me that we cannot of course allow European companies to profit from the oppression to which the Burmese State now subjects its inhabitants.
Det er altså det, vi har forpligtet os til.
The situation in Burma is very serious.
Denne betænkning vil naturligvis også blive forelagt for Parlamentet.
In 1990, the NLD (National League for Democracy) won the free parliamentary elections and over 80 % of the seats contested.
Det drejer sig om forskningen i en chip mod vold.
The result of those elections has not been respected.
Det be tyder, at Kommissionen ikke kan påbegynde den pågældende undersøgelse før begyndelsen af 1999.
The military regime is still holding on to power, thanks to the state of emergency.
Jeg vil gerne have - og jeg forpligtede mig hertil sidste gang, og jeg gentager det nu - at dette ikke skal gøres til sidst, men tidligere, og om muligt på det nævnte tidspunkt.
The NLD held its first officially authorized congress on 27 September 1997, shortly after which a large number of the delegates were detained by the SLORC military dictatorship.
Vi bør derfor gennemføre denne undersøgelse så betids, at vi kan medtage den i den gældende betænkning, som er om handlet i artikel 26.
What steps is the Commission prepared to take to support the opposition's struggle for democracy in Burma?
Det drejer sig om et restriktivt kriterium, men det betyder ikke, at alle de store begivenheder ikke er med. Og jeg vil også gerne sige til Dem, at der er en ting Jeg finder vigtig: det, der kan være en vigtig begivenhed i ét land, er måske ikke så vigtigt i et andet. Tænk f.eks. på Derbyet.
Marin. - (ES) As Mrs Theorin knows very well, the Commission has taken a very firm and clear measure re garding the Burmese Government, which I think Parliament appreciates.
Derbyet er naturligvis en meget vigtig begivenhed i Storbritannien, men i Spanien eller Grækenland er det sandsynligvis en begivenhed af mindre interesse.
In any case, in view of the sit uation in south-east Asia, I think it is a bit risky to talk of European investments at the moment.
Det kriterium, som man vil følge, er altså - og deraf den gensidige anerkendelse - at hver medlemsstat beslutter, hvilke af dens begivenheder, der er vigtige, og at de øvrige respekterer denne beslutning.
Not because of the situation in Burma, but because of the general market sit uation in south-east Asia at the moment.
Formanden. - Spørgsmål nr. 58 af Birgitta Ahlqvist (H1009/97):
Marin, Vice-President of the Commission. - (ES) As re gards the European Union's political position with re spect to the Burma question, the first thing I want to as sure you is that the common position adopted in October 1996 has been renewed.
Hvis situationen skulle ændre sig - f.eks. inden for rammen af Noteboom-proceduren - så kan jeg, mine damer og herrer, forsikre Dem om, at vi ville træffe de nødvendige foranstaltninger for at relancere denne undersøgelse.
Secondly, we have continued to exclude Burma from the benefits of the system of generalized preferences, and are still doing so.
På dette område deler jeg, som jeg har sagt det, fuldt ud Deres bekymring.
As Parliament knows, that was a Commission initiative.
Om: Kommissionens undersøgelse om børn og reklamer mer
Kinnock, Glenys (PSE). -1 should like to ask the Com missioner whether he accepts the legitimacy of the 1990 elections in Burma in which the NLD led by Aung San Suu Kyi were the clear and legitimate winners.
Nu er det tredje gang, at jeg retter en forespørgsel til kommissær Oreja om den undersøgelse, Kommissionen mangen en gang har lovet at lave om, hvilke virk ninger reklamer kan have på mindreårige.
Thirdly, in November the Commission presented the Council with a proposal to postpone the high-level meet ing with ASEAN, because ASEAN was insisting that Burma should be there. The European Union did not ac cept that, and the meeting was postponed.
Andre uafhængige undersøgelser har påvist, at børn ikke kan be

Spørgsmål til hr. Marin
Question No 60 by Marianne Eriksson (H-0996/97) Subject: Human rights in Colombia
Formanden. - Spørgsmål nr. 59 af Maj Theorin (H0965/97):
Marin, Vice-President of the Commission. - (ES) The Commission shares Parliament's concern over the human rights situation in Colombia.
I USA findes der siden maj 1997 et forbud mod nyinvesteringer på grund af, at situationen ikke har forandret sig i Burma.
I think there is widespread recognition of the attitude taken towards this issue by the Commission and the Eu ropean Union in general.
EU har nu adgang til den retlige ramme og de økonomiske pressionsmuligheder.
Human rights violations have been occurring in Colombia for several years now.
Derfor er det vigtigt, at EU nu viser vejen og den politiske vilje.
Political democracy does not exist in reality, as all legal progressive parties and movements are persecuted.
Det er godt, at kommissæren er helt enig med mig i, at vi naturligvis ikke kan acceptere, at europæiske virksomheder profiterer af den undertrykkelse af mennesker, som ' den burmesiske stat udsætter sine indbyggere for.
As for the UN Human Rights Office in Bogotá, Colombia at the moment, I should say that the very existence of that office is due to the intervention of the European Union, not just because of the political support we have given, but also because of financial support.
Situationen i Burma er meget alvorlig.
How will the Commission register its protest against the violation of democracy and human rights in Colombia?
Militærregimet holder sig fortsat ved mag ten ved hjælp af undtagelsestilstand.
What action will it take in the specific case of José Antonio Buia in order to secure his release?
Hvilke initiativer agter Kommissionen at træffe for at støtte oppositionens kamp for demokrati i Burma?
Question No 61 by Jörn Svensson (H-0998/97) Subject: Human rights in Colombia
Marin. - (ES) Som fru Theorin så udmærket ved, og som jeg tror, Parlamentet værdsætter, har Kommissionen truffet en meget handlekraftig og klar foranstaltning over for regeringen i Burma.
As regards the paramilitary groups, especially the socalled Convivir cooperatives, I myself, at a public press conference during my latest official visit to Colombia, made clear what the European Union's position is.
Vi har ikke kompetence til i en global økonomi at bestemme, hvor en privat virksomhed skal foretage en investering, men under alle omstændigheder og set i lyset af situationen i Sydøstasien, så synes jeg, at det i øjeblikket indebærer en vis risiko at tale om europæiske investeringer. Ikke på grund af situationen i Burma, men på grund af den generelle situation på markedet i Sydøstasien for øjeblikket.
We do not consider any paramilitary activities (specifically in cluding this type of cooperative) to form part of the nor mal responsibility of a state to guarantee a normal situation, in whichever country.
Marin, næstformand for Kommissionen. - (ES) Med hensyn til Den Europæiske Unions politiske holdning til Burmaspørgsmålet kan jeg for det første bekræfte over for Dem, at den fælles holdning, som blev vedtaget i oktober 1996, er blevet fornyet.
The Convivir forces in Colombia, together with out-and-out paramilitary groups, constitute a very serious problem.
I den forstand fastholder Den Europæiske Union nøjagtig den samme holdning med hensyn til, hvad der er sket i dette land.
Convivir is involving civilians in an armed conflict and is responsible for serious human rights violations.
For det andet fastholder vi, og vil fortsat fastholde, ude lukkelsen af Burma fra at modtage noget fra Fællesskabets generelle præferencesystem, og det var, som Parlamentet udmærket ved, et initiativ fra Kommissionen.
Although the Colombian courts do not consider the Convivir forces to be unconstitutional, both the UN Human Rights Committee and the Human Rights Commissioner, Almodena Mazarassa, have said that the existence of the Colombian Convivir forces represents a breach of international humanitarian rights and is incompatible with human rights.
Kinnock, Glenys (PSE). - (EN) Jeg vil gerne spørge kommissæren, om han anerkender lovligheden af valget i Burma i 1990, hvor NLD anført af Aung San Suu Kyi blev de klare og lovlige vindere.
We think the main thing is to promote peace and peace negotiations, between now and the general elections in May.
Hvis det er tilfældet, vil han så give mig ret i, at ethvert nyt valg, der udskrives af militærjuntaen i Burma, ikke vil blive anerkendt som lov ligt, og at det derfor aldrig vil kunne accepteres, at det til sidesætter resultatet af valget i 1990?
As I had the chance to say in Colombia, we think that no matter who wins in May, the new government's main political objective must be to negotiate and seek for peace, in a country which is suffering the ill effects not just of drug trafficking, but also of the paramilitary gue rilla warfare - which is also partly responsible - and of the internal political situation itself.
For det tredje forelagde Kommissionen i november et for slag til Rådet om, at man udsatte mødet på højt plan med ASEANgruppen, netop fordi ASEAN-gruppen insisterede på, at Burma skulle være med. Den Europæiske Union accepterede ikke denne situation, og mødet blev udsat.
It is a very complex and difficult situation, in which I think the European Union can do quite a lot to help the peace process and internal negotiations.
Om: Menneskerettighederne i Colombia
Question No 62 by Richard Howitt (H-1004/97) Subject: Human rights in Colombia
I Colombia er der i flere år sket alvorlige krænkelser af menneskerettighederne.
I have also asked a question about a specific person.
Alene partiet Unidad Popular har mistet tusind vis af medlemmer, heriblandt flere demokratisk valgte borgmestre, gennem politiske mord. Et aktuelt eksempel på forfølgelse er den demokratisk valgte borgmester José Antonio Bula fra Apartado, der er blevet arresteret på falsk grundlag og sat i fængsel.
Does the Commission agree that the operation of illegal paramilitary groups in Colombia presents one of the biggest obstacles to the all-encompassing peace talks proposed recently by that country's government?
