Derfor har vi brug for argumenter, og dem kan vi få på en videnskabelig konference, sagde kommissær Franz Fischler.
Improved safety is another priority for MEPs with a call for compulsory child safety seats, seat belts in buses and coaches and a ban on bull­bars.
I USA er det tilladt at bruge nogle af de stoffer, der er forbudt i EU, og amerikanerne har gjort det helt klart, at de vil bede Verdenshandelsorganisationen (WTO) tage stilling til, hvorvidt EU's importforbud er i overensstemmelse med reglerne, sagde Kommissær Franz Fischler under Parlamentets de bat.
Constitutional changes made in July were considered to be a step in the right direction and indeed Mrs Ciller was expected to brief MEPs on the current situation next month, but the fall of the government puts into jeop­ardy the timetable for further democratic reforms.
Kommissionen har indkaldt til en konference om hormoner. Den finder sted 29. november - 1. de cember i Bruxelles.
MEPs are particularly anxious to see the anti­terrorist law which enables political prisoners to be held without trial abolished.
Der er indbudt 65 videnskabsmænd fra hele ver den - de er udvalgt af en uafhængig videnskabelig komite, fortalte Fischler.
In Ireland, a grant of Ir£ 1,000 is avail­able to anyone scrapping a car over ten years old and buying a new one.

­ Udviklingen i Bosnien har gi­vet os en lektion, som burde være en hjælp til at skabe enighed om procedurerne i den fælles uden­rigs­ og sikkerhedspolitik, fortsatte Herzog.
Similarly, with Council minutes, which will now normally be published, there is a restriction relating to the provision of confiden­tial information and no obli­gation to publish documents referred to in minutes.
­ Vi har en vision, som hedder Eu­ropa. Integrationen i Vest­ og Nordeuropa virker som en magnet på Østeuropa og på landene i Middelhavsområdet.
The declarations issue has been a sore point for MEPs.
Diskussio­nerne om udvidelser tilfører di­skussionerne om uddybning af samarbejdet ny dynamik.
Only last month, new Council President Carlos Westen­dorp said they were often used just to save face.
Sådan har det altid været, og sådan er det også i dag.
Council President Carlos Westendorp defends the new Council agreement to open up its books and make documents available to the public and a week of public hearings in Brussels sandwiched in between.
Det var indlednin­gen til den tale, Roman Herzog, præsident for Forbundsrepublik­ken Tyskland holdt i Europa­Parla­mentet i Strasbourg tirsdag den 10. oktober. ­1 modsætning til utopier er visi­oner ubekvemme.
With the French nuclear testing programme still a burning issue, experts were invited to give their views as were some 70 pressure groups in another hearing on next year's IGC.
I sagens natur har ingen ansvaret for, at en utopi bliver til virkelighed ­ for virkelig­gørelsen af visioner er vi selv an­svarlige, sagde Herzog.
During the first October sessions MEPs backed the Commission's initiative for a new Mediterranean policy, voted for tougher rules to protect the environment from unsightly development and were looking for the inclusion of a chapter on energy in the post­Maastricht treaty reforms.
Den tyske præsident tog skarpt afstand fra det synspunkt, at nu hvor den kolde krig er forbi, og der ikke mere er nogen ydre fjende, er der ikke længere noget incitament kunst og videnskab.
MEPs are meeting from 23­27 October to give the 86bn ECU draft budget for 1996 a first reading and to consider a move to cut the UK's 3.5bn ECU rebate.
Den fælles europæiske kultur findes, fordi man i den vestlige del af verdens­delen ikke ønsker at miste den, og fordi man i den østlige del igen øn­sker at præge den og tage del i mod at gøre det til et spørgsmål for eksperter.

En åben og bred de­bat om de problemer, som optager folk, giver muligheden for at bringe Europa tættere på borgerne, men­te den tyske forbundspræsident.
Closer makes a mockery of the co­decision­making procedure, if states are able to evade stipulations laid down in Parliamentary amendments incorporated into the final legislation.

saw itself as an executive and insisted on confidentiality when making decisions.
Vi kan imidlertid ikke for­vente, at amerikanerne altid vil være parat til at rage kastanierne ud af ilden for os, advarede han.
His solution which he urged Mr Westendorp, who is also chairman of the Reflection Group, to take up at next year's IGC was Parliament's suggestion that the legisla­tive and executive functions be separated.

­ For det første at enstemmige beslutninger har større gennem­slagskraft end knappe flertalsbe­slutninger, som er påvirket af indre europæiske stridigheder.
But the fact that they are accepted by other member states means that they will not later be challenged by them.
På den anden side er flertalsbeslutninger bedre end slet ingen beslutninger, da beslutningerne ellers bliver truffet af andre, og at vi så kun kan håbe på, at de går i den retning, vi ønsker, sagde Herzog.
They were used recently by the UK to seek exemption from some provi­sions of the new data protec­tion legislation, and MEP Dominique Saint Pierry (F, ERA) has discovered that 27 statements were added to the Television without Fron­tiers directive, many of them seeking to exempt countries from the goal of the legisla­tion to ensure that half the programmes appear on the channels are of European origin.
Som ud­fordringer, der skal tages fat på, nævnte han bl.a. omvæltningerne på arbejdsmarkedet, internationa­lisering, informationssamfundet og miljøproblemerne.
While MEPs recognised the move as an important step forward in the cam­paign to break down the aura of secrecy surrounding Council meetings, there is still some way to go.
demokratisk Europa, hvis det bli­ver et »borgernes Europa«, sagde Herzog og tilføjede, at det skal ha­ve et reelt indhold.
The arrival of Scandinavian countries, with a culture of openness, will ensure that the pressure will be kept up on other countries.
Vi har brug for bevægelse, men borgerne skal kunne følge med, fortsatte han.
The new Ombudsman, Jacob Söder­man, will be probing secret files when carrying out his investigations into alleged cases of maladministration.

David Martin (Lothians, PES) contrasted the practice with the fanfare at the 1992 December Summit when much was made of EU lead­ers' commitment to open­ness and transparency.
Borgernes dagligliv er jo også europæisk præget, det viser turismen, vareudbuddet i for­retningerne, spisevaner og mode,

Væk med hemmelige erklæringer
MEPs also believe it
Vi kan ikke acceptere, at Rådet både er lovgiver og ved hjælp af hem­melige erklæringer tiltager sig Domstolens kompetence til at for­tolke de vedtagne retsakter, un­derstregede han.
German president seeks a Union for the people
Men det er udelukkende gode hensigter ­ kodeksen er alt for ge­nerel, kan nemt fraviges og har ik­ke nogen retskraft, kritiserer Par­lamentet.
Presenting the reports on behalf of the culture and education committee, Mary Banotti (Dublin, EPP) pointed out that Parliament has long favoured co­operation with both countries, not only in the areas of economic and trading relations, but also in education and culture.
I en beslutning, som blev vedtaget med stort flertal, for­dømmer Europa­Parlamentet Rå­dets praksis med at fremsætte en­sidige erklæringer i mødereferater om lovforslag.
Both sides have a shared interest in promoting mutual understanding, knowledge and respect, she believed.
Dette gælder især for proceduren med fælles beslut­ningstagning, hvor Parlamentet og Rådet er medlovgivere, hedder det i beslutningen.
MEPs Peter Crampton and Graham Watson tried to persuade the Council of Ministers to take up the concerns of Hong Kong residents before China takes over, but Council President Carlos Westendorp refused to be drawn and said it was a matter for the UK authorities
'"£■· uden at blive retsforfulgt og uden, at nogen får det at vide, understre­gede han.
At present "European law is too diffuse, it is too complex, technocratic and perfectionist".
Den krænker borgernes og virksomhedernes ret til at vide, hvad der gælder. Den krænker Parlamentet, som ikke kan være medlovgivere på disse vilkår, og Kommissionen tilsidesætter der­ved sin pligt til at påse, at reglerne overholdes, understregede Bertel Haarder.
To achieve a sense of direc­tion and momentum, the EU must seriously tackle those problems, which in the main were common to all.
Jens­Peter Bonde (JuniBe­ vægelsen) kritiserede, at sigtet med nogle af protokollerne er di­rekte at ændre den offentliggjorte lovgivning og dermed gøre forskel mellem dem, der læser loven på biblioteket, og dem, der har inside viden eller dygtige lobbyister.
Eligible activities for support will include student and teacher exchanges, the joint development of new teaching methods, co­operation in the use of new technology and the provision of Fulbright scholarships for the study of EU affairs and EU/US relations.
At 14 demokratiske lande ønsker at opretholde muligheden for hem­melige protokoller om lovene er en skandale, fastslog han.
Funding for the Canadian programme will be 3.2m ECU. Mrs Banotti said that for both schemes bodies must form consortia in order to develop projects.
Den spanske Europa­minister Carlos Westendorp indrømmede, at Rådet desværre ikke kunne op­nå enighed om mere bindende regler. Han vurderede imidlertid, at adfærdskodeksen er en betyde­lig vending i forhold til tidligere.
strength is not solely in the hands of the Bundesbank," he commented, before pointing out that 30 per cent of Germany's GNP depended on exports, two­thirds of which went to other European countries.
Rådsformanden forventede, at er­klæringer til rådsprotokollen som oftest vil blive offentliggjort, men han præciserede, at Rådet stadig­væk kan vedtage at hemmelighol­de erklæringerne.
"Our Anglo­Saxon Europeans need not be afraid of it." While elements of federalism could also be found in French and American history, he emphasised that there was no need for the EU to accept any particular model.
­ Den manglende åbenhed for­klarer, at de nordiske unionsmod­standere i dag står stærkere end nogensinde, sagde Ole Krarup (Folkebevægelsen mod EF­Unio­nen).
As far as a common foreign and security policy was con­cerned, he thought there were a number of lessons to be learned from failures in Bosnia.
Blandt de nordiske folk er der en grundlæggende mangel på tillid til et system, som lukker sig for befolkningerne, sagde han.
In particular that unanimous decisions had a greater external effect than a bare majority which reflected internal disagreement
­ At anvende mere eller mindre hemmelige diplomatiske procedu­rer i forbindelse med lovgivnings­processen giver et demokratisk problem, sagde italieneren Carlo
Turning to the question of Europe's diversity in culture and language, he recalled Ortega y Gasset's phrase: "In all of us the European's influence is far greater than that of the German, the Spaniard, the Frenchman .... four­fifths of our innate posses­sions are common European property."
Både Rådet og Kommissionen har lovet at udvise tilbageholdenhed med at fremsætte sådanne er­klæringer, og at man vil bestræbe sig på i stedet for at få uddybende bemærkninger og reservationer med i selve lovteksten.
Yet, at the same time, it was vital to recognise the fears of ordinary citizens about economic prospects for the future. In par­ticular, he referred to those Germans who were concerned about seeing the mark replaced by a single currency.
Den 2. oktober i år vedtog Mini­

Da Rådet fornylig vedtog en fælles holdning om et direktivforslag om databe­skyttelse, blev der afgivet hele 31 erklæringer til mødeprotokollen.
In particular, he said ordinary citizens wanted to know "why, how and for whom" European Union was to be developed.
Fællesskabernes Domstol i Luxembourg har allerede kendt sådanne erklæringer for juridisk ugyldige.
And if the answers were not forthcoming there would be a political price to pay.
Men erklæringerne er ik­ke ligegyldige, forklarede Bertel Haarder (Venstre). ­ Jeg har siddet i ti år i to Mini­sterråd, og jeg kan let forestille mig, hvordan disse problemer op­står, sagde han.
While there was no doubting his vision of a united Europe, based on political union and eco­nomic and monetary union there were, he felt, pitfalls with all visions and the risk of failure.
Forestil Dem, at ministrene sidder om bordet. De har siddet der i syv timer, de vil gerne hjem.
He had stern words for those who called into question the EMU timetable.
Så er der en eller to kolleger, som ikke tør rejse hjem med resultatet. De insisterer på at få en æn­dring.
Such disputes jeopardised not only monetary union but political union as well.
De får altså løf­te om, at de kan omfortolke loven
Events in Bosnia had shown Europe unable to act for want of a common strategy.
Lad os se, hvordan de nye regler vil fungere, opfordrede den span­ske Europa­minister Carlos Westendorp.
His solution, to counter what he termed spreading anarchy, was "as much integration as necessary and possible".
Den 10. oktober var tre betænk­ninger om forskellige aspekter af miljøpolitikken til debat.
Paperwork shuffles between the national capitals and Brussels, where the Commission checks to see if projects comply with the rules.
Der blev taget fat på både de mere over­ordnede problemstillinger om øko­nomisk vækst og miljø, på hvor­dan man kan komme frem til et mere realistisk mål for vores vels­tand samt på, hvordan man vurde­rer miljøindvirkningen.
Only last month a row broke out over the UK's share of the Konver programme, set up by Parliament to help regions formerly dependent on the defence industry to retrain workers and create new jobs.

PRESIDENT Herzog is not the only one who takes the view that European law is too complex and remote from the people.
Hun appel­lerede til parlamentarikerne om støtte, sådan at der i højere grad kommer opbakning fra medlem­slandene til projektet.
If there is one issue where all can agree on reform in the runup to the 1996 Intergovernmental Conference, it is the need to simplify the existing texts and make them more comprehensible to European citizens.
"Det er ikke muligt at få informa­tion om, f.eks. hvem den hr. Skummetmælk er, som er den største modtager af bidrag fra EU­kassen til Danmark.
A new study commissioned by Parliament's research services, entitled Simplifying the European Union's Treaties provides an overview of what can be done to prune the Treaties without altering their substance.
Jeg har også i Revisionsretten måttet konstatere, at man der ikke har været i stand til at få oplysninger fra f.eks.
Professor Roland Bieber of Lausanne University comes to the remarkable conclusion that 533 articles, or nearly half the total, could be eliminated from the main body of the Treaties: 150 haue been overtaken by events and no longer apply, 239 are repeated two or three times and 144 are of a technical nature and could be annexed to a unified Treaty.
Tyskland og Frankrig om, hvem der var modtagerne af de beløb, der blev udbetalt som eksportrestitutioner og an­dre tilskud.
These conclusions have been passed to the Reflection Group that will report to the Madrid European Council.
Opbakning fik Ritt Bjerregaard fra parlamentarikerne, som ved­tog betænkningen med 411 stem­mer for, fem imod, mens 12 hver­ken stemte for eller imod.

te forbruget af naturressourcerne og forringelsen af naturkapitalen, men gør man ikke forsøget, risike­rer man at forvride og forvanske det endelige resultat og forpasse muligheden for at sikre en bære­dygtig udvikling. Denne advarsel kom fra den spanske socialdemo­krat Carmen Diez de Rivera Icaza, der var ordfører for Miljøud­valgets betænkning om miljøindi­katorer og grønne nationalregn­skaber.
Indeed, the Joint Assembly backed a resolution tabled by David Morris (South and West Wales, PES) for future agree ments to take into account conservation and the impact on local fishermen.
Hvordan er forbindelserne mellem økonomisk vækst og miljøet, og hvordan skal de indvirke på ud­formningen af den økonomiske politik?
America. During the negotiations, the EU was even reluctant to grant much in the way of trade concessions to improve access for ACP agricultural exports to European markets.
Økonomisk vækst og en mil­jømæssig bæredygtig udvikling udelukker ikke gensidigt hinan­den. Der er dog ikke nogen auto­matik i overgangen til en mil­jømæssig bæredygtig udvikling.
While at first glance the offer of a 16% reduction in tariffs for 301 goods may look attractive, closer examination shows that this will only apply to 50 coming from the ACP, with sensitive products such as wine, olives and melons excluded.
Økonomisk vækst skaber yderli­gere ressourcer, som kan bruges til at bekæmpe forureningen og beskytte miljøet; men det vil kun ske, hvis de rette politiske rammer forefindes, understreger Kommis­sionen i sin meddelelse.
Neither was there much movement in another controversial area, i.e. fisheries, where EU policy is still largely based on bilateral negotiations designed to ensure increased access for European vessels to African waters.
Direktivet om miljøindvirk­ ningsvurdering (VVM) har nu fej­ret 10­års jubilæum, og der er be­hov for at ajourføre det, både hvad angår omfang, indhold og gen­ nemførelsesbestemmelser.
OCTOBER is traditionally the month for party conferences and, while Michael Portillo may have stolen the headlines at the British Tory Party Conference with his remarks on a European army, Europe was also on Labour's agenda.
Det er Kommissionen og Europa­Parla­mentet enige om, og de tog de første skridt under førstebehand­lingen af Kommissions­forslaget om ændringer af direktivet.
This conference adopted a policy paper drafted by a team of party leaders including MEPs, Pauline Green (London North, PES), Wayne David (South Wales Central, PES), David Martin (Lothians, PES) and Christine Crawley (Birmingham East, PES).
Lone Dybkjær fandt, at selv om der i de forløbne 10 år er kommet mange henstillinger og vedtaget mange konventioner og erklærin­ger, er det nok mere blevet til ord end egentlig konkret handling.
The document outlines Labour's position on the future of European developments including next year's IGC.
Derfor er det vigtigt at være meget omhyggelig, når der kommer et di­rektiv, der udmønter nogle mere generelle principper i handling, fremhævede hun.
It reaffirms the party's commitment to tackling unemployment through closer economic cooperation between the member states, the development of the Trans-European networks, the setting up of a European Recovery Fund and a switch in EU spending more directed towards industry, training and research.
Lone Dybkjær opfordrede Kommissionen til at vurdere, om forslaget kan stram­mes op, og til at lade sig inspirere af de ændringsforslag, Parlamen­tet fremsætter.
The party's support for the Social Chapter and a European environmental policy is confirmed, as is its desire to see the Union enlarged to take in Malta and Cyprus and countries from eastern Europe, at an appropriate time.
Kommissær Ritt Bjerregaard var enig i, at tiden nu er inde til at op­stille nærmere regler.

Men giver det klassiske BNP det rigtige billede af velstand?
The Joint Assembly wants to see more regional cooperation in these areas.
Ordføreren for betænkningen fra Parlamentets Miljøudvalg, bel­gieren Paul Lannoye (De Grønne) fandt, at et problem med det gæl­dende direktiv har været, at det of­te er blevet anvendt forkert i med­lemslandene.
One important point mentioned in this connection was the need to ensure that new water or rail networks are backed up with adequate arrangements for maintenance while another new element applying to these projects is proper environmental impact evaluation.
- Niveauet skal op, og vores hjælp skal være hjælp til selv hjælp.
Programme for Reconstruction and Development with a budget of 125m ECU for this year has been put in place.
Det er nødvendigt med skolegang, hvis man skal forbedre sundhed, beskæftigelse og demokratiske principper, sagde Rolf Berend.
It has however, faced teething problems and administrative delays leading Glenys Kinnock (South Wales East, PES) to complain to the Commission.
Parlamentet vedtog, at med lemsstaterne skal udveksle erfaringer og samordne deres bistandsprogrammer, så den samlede hjælp bliver effektiv.
More staff have now been allocated to the programme and the situation has improved.
Samtidig skal hjælpen koordineres med andre bistandsprogrammer for eksempel beskæftigelses- og land brugsprojekter, så man ikke længere kun koncentrerer sig om et enkeltområde.
'Our young people and our businesses want a positive British Conservative approach in the EU', he said.
Uddannelsesbistanden skal tage hensyn til lokale og kulturelle forhold, så man opnår de bedste resultater.
Commissioner Sir Leon Brittan added his voice to the argument contending that there was a new mood in Brussels, with the tendency to legislate for the sake of it virtually having disappeared.
Samtidig skal lærerstaben uddannes og kvaliteten for bedres. - Vi må være opmærksomme på, at hjælpen ikke tager form af neo-kolonisme, advarede Luciano Vecchi (italiensk socialdemokrat).
The number of directives had slowed to a trickle he said, with the emphasis on social policy now directed towards easing the burden on business and getting people back to work.
- Det er bedre at lære folk at fiske end at give dem en fisk - dette var hovedessensen i Europa-Parlamentets budskab, om hvordan fremtidens bistandshjælp til udviklingslandene skal prioriteres.
