MEP protests over wheelchair facilites
- Forligsproceduren har haft af gørende indflydelse på indholdet af direktivet.
I > «» BRIAN CROWLEY (Munster, UEN) protest­ed about the lack of suitable facilities for dis­abled politicians in Parliament's new building.
Det bør give anledning til, at man i Europa-Parlamentet erkender, at der også i direktiver af teknisk karakter kan være et politisk indhold, som ikke kan overlades til en ekspertkomité, konkluderede Ulla Sandbæk.
Mr Crowley is wheelchair­bound and com­plained that despite drawing the attention of the French authorities to his situation, the de­sign of the new chamber meant that he was isolated from his fellow group members.

New President Nicole Fontaine reassured him that this would be rectified in time for the next Parliamentary session in September.
- De fleste af os er vel efterhånden lidt trætte af at høre om svig og svindel med EU-midler, sagde Freddy Blak (Socialdemokratiet) der skal indledes en undersøgelse.
THIS MONTH a large number of new mem­bers arrived in Strasbourg from a variety of backgrounds.

Italy boast­ed a mountaineer and explorer in Reinhold Messner; from Finland there is a world cham­pion rally driver Ari Vatanen; from Spain an Olympic sailing champion Teresa Lucas Zabell; and from France comes Philippe Mo­rillon, a former commander of UN troops in Bosnia.
Vi får et kontor, som bliver uafhængigt, men hvis organisatoriske placering i Kommissionen samtidig vil sikre det adgang til fortrolige dokumenter, som er en forudsætning for gennemførelse af en reel kontrolfunktion, konkluderede Freddy Blak.
Mr Morillon will be able to talk about that troubled region with another new mem­ber Spaniard Carlos Westendorp who was the UN mediator in former Yugoslavia.

Many familiar faces from the world of politics were also to be seen in Parliament.
Sagen havde været til behandling i forligsudvalget, hvor det hurtigt lykkedes at nå til enighed. Der var allerede inden for ligsproceduren opnået enighed mellem Råd og Parlament om en række centrale emner, f.eks. en garantiperiode på to år samt om vendt bevisbyrde i de første seks måneder.

As well as these political veterans Par­liament will be opening its doors to a large number of lawyers, economists, farmers, aca­demics, doctors, teachers, trade unionists, journalists, civil servants, businessmen and women, party activists, several former ac­tresses and at least one machine fitter, harpist and car worker.

Glyn Ford (South West, PES) complained that too many tickets were only available through expensive "corporate hospitality" arrangements, while the size of the fine was about the same as the price of one black market ticket for a game. Fur thermore, it sent a message that organisers of future competition could get away with whatever they wished.

Indeed Finland's Minister for Foreign Affairs Tarja Halonen emphasised the need for the EU to speak with one voice, while Finnish MEPs such as Heidi Hautala (Greens/EFA) were anxious to emphasise Finland's neutrality at a time of conflict and the need for the EU to strengthen the diplomatic side of its Common Foreign and Security Policy.

Any reform will have to be accompanied by a review of the voting system in Council to give greater weight to the larger member states.

Colombian President, Andres Pastrana, addresses the House
EU-budgettet godkendes normalt i december af Parlamentet efter indgående forhandlinger med Rådet.
Andres Pastrana the President of the Republic of Colombia will be addressing Parliament.
Parlamentet kan ikke ændre ved de obligatoriske udgifter, herunder udgifter til landbrugspolitikken, der fastsættes af Rådet.
Mr Pastrana was elected to office last year as the candidate for the 'Great Alliance for Change' which is led by the Conservative Party.
EU's indtægter kommer hovedsageligt (ca. 50%) fra den såkaldte fjerde kilde, der er baseret på medlemsstaternes bruttonationalprodukt.
In the elections he received more than six million votes or just over 50% which was the largest number of votes ever garnered by a presidential candidate in Colombian history.
Ca. en trediedel kommer fra momsindtægter og resten fra told- og landbrugsafgifter.
The 45 year old Mr Pastrana is the son of a former Colombian President and was previously mayor of Bogota.
Kommissionen har fremlagt sit foreløbige forslag til EU-budgettet år 2000.

The Treaty requires the Bank's President to present an annual report to Parliament and Mr Duisenberg will be fulfilling this duty.
