Written by journal­ist Michael Maclay, who was special adviser to Douglas Hurd, the former British foreign secretary, the book gives a concise and very readable account of the evolution of the EU over the past 50 years.
John Iversen (Socialdemokratiet) hilste hand­lingsplanen velkommen. ­ Den anarkistiske opbygning af Internettet betyder, at forbryderi­ske og kriminelle personer har mere eller mindre frit spil til at sprede ulovlige tekster eller bille­der, sagde John Iversen under de­batten.
Britain's position on events from the Treaty of Rome to the single currency is explained and the author concludes that the way western Europe manages its affairs has been transformed in the course of two generations. While the European Parliament only merits a number of passing references, the contribution of MEPs to the creation and success of the single market is acknowledged.

- Det er en udbredt opfattelse, at mere end 25% af den polske arbejdsstyrke er beskæftiget i land bruget.
The EU has already allocated EUR50u,000 to major Europe­wide sign language projects to promote more use of sign language.
Men kun 30% af land mændene sælger deres produkter på markedet, så det er kun for dem, at landbruget er den væsentligste indkomstkilde, påpegede præsidenten.
At present only four EU member states officially recognise sign language.
Problemet er mangel på arbejdspladser uden for landbrugssektoren og en problematisk aldersfordeling i befolkningen på landet, ikke en overudviklet landbrugssektor.
In another move to take account of blind people in the introduction of monetary union, MEPs approved a proposal to modify the design of the new 50 cent and 10 cent coins so that they could easily be recognised by blind people.
Præsidenten var heller ikke enig i, at Polens medlemskab af EU vil medføre en destabilisering af landbrugsmarkedet.

Selv en stigning i produktionen på 30%, som blot betyder en tilbagevenden til produktionsniveauet i 1989, kan kun have ringe indvirkning på priserne på landbrugsprodukter i EU, sagde han.
The Commission calculates that natural economic growth in the 15, coupled with substan­tial savings from the common agricultural policy and regional fund reforms, will generate an extra EUR 3 billion per annum to be used in "pre­accession" aid designed to bring basic transport and social facilities in the countries concerned up to scratch over the 2000 to 2006 period and at the same time enable the EU to stay within the present budgetary ceiling of 1.27 per cent of GNP.
Vi vil skåne andre for den oplevelse. Kravene i Schengen-samarbejdet skal opfyldes, men vore grænser skal være venlige, så turister, for retningsfolk og unge kan besøge famlie, venner og partnere uden unødige forhindringer, sagde præsidenten. - Vist bliver der vanskeligheder, men lad os ikke overdrive dem, formanede præsidenten.
AS THE British government considers moves to introduce compulsory second pensions, MEPs next month will also support incentives to encourage workers to take out extra pensions, and will call on the Commission to allow pension funds the freedom to invest across the EU, as this in not the case at present in all EU member states.
Jeg er overbevist om, at politikere fra både EU og ansøgerlandene vil være med til at fremme en positiv holdning til udvidelsen, og at de vil søge at erstatte myter med vi den, sagde Aleksander Kwasniewski. niewski.
MEPs also want to see measures taken to allow workers switching jobs to other EU countries to be able to take their pensions with them.

Præsidenten lagde ud med at knække en ellers sejlivet tro på, at store strømme af polsk arbejdskraft vil oversvømme det europæiske arbejdsmarked.
Furthermore, he said addi­tional bilateral aid from the member states would mean a total of EUR70bn being avail­able.
Den frygt er ubegrundet, mente præsidenten og henviste til, at man nærede samme frygt, da Spanien og Portugal tiltrådte EU.
Yet many MEPs ques­tioned whether this would be sufficient in view of the vast gap in wealth between coun­tries in eastern Europe and present EU member states. Ralf Walter (D, PES), the

MEPs wanted to emphasise the importance of cementing eastern Europe to the EU fol­lowing the end of the Cold War and placed emphasis on consol­idating democracy and the rule of law with respect for human rights.
Han påpegede også, at Polen, takket være et eksportoverskud til EU's fordel, er med til
As Gary Titley (Greater Manchester West, PES) said, "money is not superior to democracy".
Polens præsident, Aleksander Kwasniewski, forsøgte med sin tale til Parlamentet at aflive myterne om konsekvenserne af Polens medlemskab af EU.
Mr Flynn claimed that with the rules on pensionable age varying in the member states, it was difficult to envisage any harmonisation in the near future.

One idea is to replace signatures on cards with a microchip incorporating the PIN number but Internet shopping with goods paid for by credit card is also vulnerable to abuse.

But, as Glenys Kinnock (South Wales East, PES) pointed out, imports from the West Indies and other ACP states only accounted for seven per cent of the EU market.
Demokratiets vilkår og muligheder over for globaliseringen, den teknologiske udvikling og massekulturen er nogle af emnerne. EU ser Lone Dybkjær ikke alene som en udfordring, men også som en ny mulighed for demokratiet.
Mr Kwasniewski contended that even a 30 per cent increase in the agricultural production of Poland - which would simply represent a return to the 1989 level of production - would have only a negligible impact on the level of prices of agricultural products in the EU.

Consequently, Mr Kwasniewski concluded that Poland would be fully ready to join the EU by the end of 2002 and that membership was supported across the political spectrum.
Der er imidlertid mange kloge ord om, det er politikerne eller pressen, der skal sætte dagsordenen.
