Cristiana MUSCARDINI (UEN, I) followed a similar line arguing that Russian troops were devastating Chechnya while the IMF was "throwing money" at President Yeltsin.
Han mente, at det skal være umuligt at sælge varer, der ikke er ordentligt afmærket, eller som ikke er fremstillet på miljøvenlige betingelser, eller som hidrører fra børnearbejde.
She believed , however that the US was seeking to "tear up the strategic map" ofthat part of the world in its pursuit of oil. The EU, she said, must have to restore peace.

Enlargement, Treaty reforms and the Inter-governmental conference (A5-0058/99 - Dimitrakopoulos, Leinen)
Han advarede mod et moratorium på handelsområdet, dels fordi EU er forpligtet af Uruguay-runden, dels fordi multilateral liberalisme er nødvendig for at undgå ny-protektionistiske tiltag fra verdensmarkedets stærkeste aktører. Han betegnede udvalgets betænkning som et godt kompromis.
Wednesday 17 November - Opening the debate, Giorgos DIMITRAKOPOULOS (EPP/ED, GR) set out the views of the Constitutional Affairs Committee for the next round of Treaty reforms to be considered at next year's inter-governmental conference.
Kommissæren understregede, at udviklingslandene har haft det mindste udbytte af Uruguay-runden.
He also stressed that Parliament had to have a presence at big decision times.
De skal integreres i verdenshandelen, i givet fald med den fornødne tekniske og finansielle bistand, sagde han.
The IGC, he believed, needed to improve the way the institutions functioned. The EU had to cope with a changing world and with a wide range oftopics.
AVS-landene skal være omfattet af WTO-reglerne, men der kan blive tale om at bevare de nuværende præferenceregler i en overgangsperiode.
The external representation of the EU was key and the forthcoming IGC must improve the different policies thereby leading to a more unified foreign and security policy.
Endelig skal reglerne om intellektuel ejendomsret udformes til gavn for udvikingslandene, sagde han.
The Conference should also address the issue of "Social Europe" which encompassed the "bread and butter" concerns of citizens.
Forsigtighedsprincippet skal give de enkelte lande mulighed for at opretholde et højt niveau af forbrugerbeskyttelse og fødevaresikkerhed, sagde kommissæren.
The next speaker was Jo LEINEN (PES, D) who stressed that there had been unanimous agreement in the committee on the need for "root and branch" reform of the EU in preparation for enlargement.
Tilsvarende skal landene have mulighed for at opretholde restriktioner inden for visse kategorier af tjenesteydelser, sagde han.
He wanted to see a reform of all the institutions, especially Council where qualified majority voting should become the rule.
EU lægger vægt på den sociale dimension og har den opfattelse, at overholdelse af ILO-bestemmelserne vedrørende arbejderrettigheder er med til at udjævne skævheder som følge af globaliseringen, sagde kommissæren.
He also wanted co-decision to become the normal method for general legislative Community level decision-making, with the unanimity rule applying only to constitutional matters.
Komissæren var ikke bekendt med indholdet i den nye aftale mellem USA og Kina, der angiveligt giver Kina mulighed for at indtræde i WTO, men hans umiddelbare vurdering var positiv.
He wanted the "Prodi procedure" whereby the Commission President may dismiss an individual Commissioner to be written into the Treaty.
(18/11) Parlamentet godkendte forslaget med en del ændringsforslag fra de politiske grupper.
Mr Leinen also stressed the need to ensure that reforms to the Treaties did not take place behind closed doors.

For Council, Kimmo SASI could agree with the goals set in the report to make the EU more democratic.
Retlige Anliggender og Det Indre Marked
It needed to summon up the political courage to seek solutions to these issues.
Anvendelse af fællesskabsretten på De Kanariske Øer
The core of the IGC agenda was enlargement, he contended.
(19/11) Kommissionen har fremlagt forslag til ændring af forordning (EØF) nr. 1911/91 om anvendelse af fællesskabsretten på De Kanariske Øer.
For the EPP/ED, Iñigo MÉNDEZ DE VIGO (E) stressed that this was a "politically intelligent report".
Forslaget går primært ud på at suspendere den planlagte nedsættelse af den såkaldte arbitrio-afgift på produktion og import (APIM) for en række produkter.
However, he called for deeper reform for the key players not to lose sight of the EU principle of integration.
Udvalget om Retlige Anliggender og Det Indre Marked stiller en række ændringsforslag, der primært går ud på at udvide suspensionen til at omfatte alle produkter. Formålet hermed er at bevare et specifikt beskyttelseselement for De Kanariske Øer, som er nødvendigt for at undgå, at de små lokaler industrier skal gå til grunde.
Speaking on behalf of the PES, Enrique BARÓN CRESPO (E) explained that he was looking for a minimum number of changes required to make an enlarged EU comprising 25 states work efficiently.
Samtidigt opfordres Kommissionen til at fremskynde arbejdet med udarbejdelse af en pakke af foranstaltninger til støtte for regionerne i den yderste periferi af EU, herunder De Kanariske Øer.
For the Liberals, Andrew DUFF (Eastern) saw developments of a European defence policy and enhancing the rights of the citizens through the new charter as the key elements in the reforms.
(19/11) Parlamentet vedtog udvalgets ændringsforslag.
It was also, he felt, important to simplify procedures in those areas where the EU was competent.

Speaking on behalf of the Greens/EFA, Monica FRASSONI (Greens/EFA, B) supported a generalised extension of qualified majority voting to Council decision-making, including taxation.
Vi er ikke enige i alle detaljer i forslaget, men vi støtter forespørgslen og efterlyser en indsats fra Kommissionens og Rådets side, sagde Anne E. JENSEN (Venstre), der talte på vegne af Det Europæiske Liberale og Demokratiske Partis Gruppe.
For the EUL/NGL, Sylvia-Yvonne KAUFMANN (D) singled out the question of a common foreign and security policy and defence where there was a need to define precisely just what a military dimension would constitute.
Hun understregede især nødvendigheden af at anvende nærhedsprincippet og at respektere de nationale aftaler mellem arbejdsmarkedets parter.
She could not go along with the EU being involved in any decisions that would commit the member states to war.
(15/11) Europa-Parlamentet vedtog ved førstebehandlingen i april 1999 sin lovgivningsmæssige beslutning om Kommissionens forslag om indførelse af en generel ramme for information og høring af arbejdstagerne i EU.
Luis QUEIRO (UEN, P), in looking for a balanced approach to involve national parliaments, singled out the new European Charter as one area where he opposed progress.
Kommissionen reagerede positivt på nogle af ændringsforslagene, men udtrykte samtidigt forbehold med hensyn til de øvrige ændringsforslag.
The question of citizenship was essentially the responsibility of the member states, he added, with the European dimension to be considered as an "add on".
Kommissionen har stadig ikke forelagt et ændret forslag, der tydeligt udtrykker dens holdning til Parlamentets ændringsforslag.
Neither could he go along with any extension of qualified majority voting.

For the EDD, Jens-Peter BONDE (DK) objected to decisions at the inter-governmental conference being taken by ministers or officials and not democratically elected national parliaments.
Parlamentets Udvalg om Beskæftigelse og Sociale Anliggender konstaterer, at det finske rådsformandskab ikke har udvist politisk vilje til at fremme denne sag.
Richard CORBETT (PES, Yorkshire and the Humber) felt that there was a case for widening the agenda of the IGC to deal with more than just the leftovers from Amsterdam and he felt that national governments too were coming round to this view.
Udvalget spørger samtidigt Kommissionen om årsagerne til, at der endnu ikke er fremlagt et ændret kommissionsforslag, og om et sådant vil blive forelagt inden årets udgang.
Christopher BEAZLEY (EPP/ED, Eastern) on the other hand, felt there was still a need for confidence building in the applicant states from Eastern Europe and with this in mind, emphasised that this enlargement would be different from previous extensions to the EU.
Endelig ønsker udvalget oplyst, hvilke foranstaltninger Kommissionen agter at træffe for at fremme en politisk aftale på området.
In addition, if the lessons of Maastricht were to be learned, there should be more openness and preparation of public opinion for change.
(16/11) Parlamentet vedtog forslaget med udvalgets ændringsforslag.
Replying to the debate, Commissioner Michel BARNIER emphasised that the overall aim was to find a way of bringing the people of Europe closer together and at the same time welcoming new member states.
Dermed ændrede Parlamentet den fælles holdning, således at gennemførelseperioden bliver på to år.
He felt that there was a broad consensus between Parliament and the Commission on the issues to be tackled, with for example qualified majority voting becoming the norm for Council legislation in conjunction with co-decision making with the European Parliament.
For havfiskere fastsættes en maksimal ugentlig arbejdsuge på 48 timer i en referenceperiode på 12 måneder.
He too supported a simplified procedure for revising certain policy areas in the Treaties and closer involvement of Parliament.
For læger under uddannelse fastsættes en overgangsperiode på 4 år med en maksimal ugentlig arbejdstid på 54 timer i en referenceperiode på 4 måneder.
He too supported the idea of a wide debate involving all interested parties and looked forward to an agreement being reached before the end of the year 2000.
Kommissionen har for så vidt tiltrådt de fleste af Parlamentets ændringsforslag, sagde kommissær Anna DIAMANTOPOULOU.
The House voted by 273 to 85 with 41 abstentions to adopt the resolution.
Disse kan i nogen grad henføres til nationale forskelle vedrørende samarbejdsaftaler mellem arbejdsmarkedets parter, sagde kommissæren.
In general, the resolution calls for strengthening of democratic controls, more transparency and an increase in the use of the qualified majority voting and co-decision procedures.
Der kan således være behov for en nærmere definition af begreberne information og høring, ligesom der kan være behov for at udarbejde et særskilt direktiv for små og mellemstore virksomheder, sagde hun.
A number of amendments were adopted, including one stating that it is "necessary and possible to improve the workings of Council in numerous ways without calling for a revision of the Treaty and that these improvements should be

included in the same calendar as the next IGC."
Forslaget er en videreførelse af de bestemmelser, der allerede er blevet indført om personbiler og lette erhvervskøretøjer.
Other amendments call for the rules to make it impossible for individual member states to block measures.
idet den nødvendige teknologi allerede er til rådighed på markedet.
A further amendment demands that Parliament should be made responsible for its own working arrangements.
Der foreslås desuden en række foranstaltninger for at fremme indførelsen af de såkaldte "mere miljøvenlige køretøjer" (EEV), for hvilke der er fastsat særligt ambitiøse grænseværdier.
Yet another amendment calls for the Amsterdam Treaty to be supplemented by a provision giving the European Public Prosecutor's Office powers of investigation.
Debatten
Internal investigations conducted by European Anti-Fraud (A5-0066/99 - Napolitano)
Ved førstebehandlingen i oktober 1998 vedtog Parlamentet en række ændringsforslag, der sigter på at bringe kommissionsforslaget på linie med det, der allerede gælder for personbiler og lette erhvervskøretøjer.
Thursday 18 November - Following a vote by the House, it was decided to debate the report by Giorgio NAPOLITANO (PES, I) on amendments to the rules of procedure following last May's interinstitutional agreement on the internal investigations conducted by the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF).
Ændringsforslagene drejer sig også om at bringe bestemmelserne for tunge erhvervskøretøjer ind på den linie, der er lagt for gennemførelse af auto-olie-programmet.
Introducing his report, Mr Napolitano argued that the text as it now stood would ensure that the rules for MEPs were more watertight and he believed that their rights and privileges would be secured.
Sammenlagt vil de forskellige tiltag på dette område betyde 60% renere luft i EU, sagde ordføreren, Bernd (PSE, D).
There was support for the solutions being proposed from speakers such as Iñigo MÉNDEZ DE VIGO (EPP/ED, E) who considered that a satisfactory solution had been achieved, while stressing that it was necessary to have a filter mechanism to ensure that information being passed to OLAF by officials was justified.
Han glædede sig over, at Rådet har accepteret de fleste af Parlamentets ændringsforslag i sin fælles holdning, som han dog ønskede skærpet på følgende områder:
Richard CORBETT (PES, Yorkshire and the Humber) supported the report as one of "the essential building blocks in restoring the credibility of the EU".
- Nedsættelse af grænseværdierne for udledning af kvælstofoxider (Nox) i én fase fra 2005, idet den nødvendige teknologi herfor allerede er til
He too was content that the privileges of MEPs were being safeguarded and that there was no danger of a "snoopers' charter".
- rådighed. Skatte- og afgiftslettelser til at støtte eftermontering af nyt udstyr til nedsættelse af forureningen fra ældre biler.
If the House failed to approve the proposal, only MEPs would be above the law in EU institutions.
Rådet har i sin fælles holdning optaget en væsentlig del af Parlamentets ændringsforslag.
It was essential to adopt the report, he concluded.
Det foreslås således, at der skal gennemføres obligatoriske grænseværdier fra 2005, navnlig med hensyn til udledning af sodpartikler.
Andrew DUFF (ELDR, Eastern) fully respected the sincerity of those who were opposed to the report and recognised that serious cultural problems were exposed.
Der skal ligeledes fra 2005 indføres egendiagnosesystemer for alle tunge erhvervskøretøjer.
This was a "technical putting into effect" of an agreement signed by Parliament.
Det foreslås endvidere, at de anordninger, der tjener til begrænsning af udstødningsforureningen, skal kunne holde mindst 100.000 km for de små klasser, 200.000 km for de mellemstore biler og 500.000 km for de store køretøjer.
He considered that the report should be adopted, as Parliament's assent to the agreement was already five months late.
Fra 2005 skal der være mulighed for at kunne kontrollere de forureningsbegrænsende anordningers funktion ved kontrol i marken.
Elmar BROK (EPP/ED, D) argued that MEPs should never be above the law and that they should adhere to this regardless of the rules of procedure.
Endelig får medlemsstaterne mulighed for ved afgifts- og skattelettelser at begunstige en tidlig anskaffelse af erhvervskøretøjer, der opfylder de nye krav i fasen fra 2005.
Nevertheless, it was important to ensure that inappropriate political pressure was not brought to bear on members.
- Indførelse af mere miljøvenlige køretøjer (EEV). - Indførelse af en dynamisk testcyklus, der kommer tættere på de faktiske udledninger under reelle drifts- og kørselsforhold.
One amendment was adopted which establishes a distinction: If an official becomes aware of possible wrong-doing by another official, he/she should inform his hierarchy or even OLAF directly.
Nyt fra Parlamentet - Nov.-ll 1999
If however, an official becomes aware of possible wrong-doing by an MEP, the official should inform Parliament's President.
Miljø- og Sundhedsanliggender og Forbrugerpolitik
No fingerprinting children under the age of 18 Consultation procedure (A5-0059/99 - Pirker)
Hermed vil også de tunge erhvervskøretøjer yde det størst mulige bidrag til EU's strategi for bekæmpelse af luftforureningen, sluttede ordføreren, Bernd (PSE, D).
Thursday 18 November - Introducing his report on Eurodac - a proposed database for taking and comparing fingerprints of asylum seekers - Hubert PIRKER (EPP/ED, A) stated that a system was finally in place to enable the implementation of the Dublin Convention on asylum.
Kommissæren vurderede imidlertid, at det vil være vanskeligt at ambitiøse fremskyde indførelsen af de grænseværdier for udledning af Nox.
On the controversial issue of whether or not to take the fingerprints of young people, he personally believed that doing so would provide more protection to this vulnerable group.
EU's bestræbelser på at nedsætte luftforureningen fra personbiler har allerede haft målelige resultater i Holland, sagde Ria OOMEN-RUIJTEN (PPE/DE, NL).
This line was rejected by Martin SCHULZ (PES, D) who believed that Mr Pirker's amendments were complicating what was already a complex proposal.
Nu skal lastbiler og busser også yde et bidrag til en renere livskvalitet, sagde hun.
He could not support further restrictions being proposed by Mr Pirker that were based on exclusion.
EU's bilindustri har en betydelig eksport af erhvervskøretøjer til USA, hvor de allerede nu skal leve op til de omhandlede grænseværdier, understregede hun.
Those being politically persecuted must have an inviolable right to asylum.
Derfor bør EU ikke vige tilbage for at indføre tilsvarende værdier, sluttede hun.
In the long run, he contended, the exclusion method would not be helpful.
(16/11) Parlamentet godkendte den fælles holdning uden ændringsforslag.
Graham WATSON (ELDR, South West) had some concerns about the draft protocol.
Grænseværdierne skal indføres lige så hurtigt, som teknologien tillader det, sagde Bill MILLER (PSE, UK).
For example, he believed it blurred the distinction between asylum seekers and other types of immigrants and that there were a number of other grey legal areas.
Han fremhævede muligheden for at benytte skatte- og afgiftspolitiske tiltag til at sikre udfasning af ældre, forurenende køretøjer og fremme indførelsen af mere miljøvenlige biler.
However, in conclusion, he was able to accept the broad thrust of the report.
Det er på tide, at lastbiler og busser yder deres bidrag til nedsættelse af luftforureningen, sluttede han.
This was a time for cool heads, he said, over such a politically charged issue.
Vi er meget tilfredse med hele forløbet af lovgivningsproceduren, sagde Jules MAATEN (ELDR, NL).
Opposition to the report was expressed by Patsy SÖRENSEN (Greens/EFA, B) who had many misgivings about the lack of a social and human dimension in Eurodac.
Den liberale gruppe går ind for mere effektive metoder til måling af forureningen fra eksisterende køretøjer, men støtter dog Rådets forslag om en to-faset nedsættelse af
It was a "reprehensible report" with no sound foundations, she believed, which would lead to asylum seekers being treated as criminals.
grænseværdierne for udledning af NOx
Pernille FRAHM (EUL/NGL, DK) struck a similar note, arguing that Eurodac was not an essential part of the implementation of the Dublin Convention.
Heidi Anneli HAUTALA (Verts/ALE, FIN) støttede udvalgets indstilling uden forbehold.
It was simply giving the authorities more opportunity to control immigration.
Busser og lastbiler forurener meget, og det er især x, sagde nødvendigt at se på udledningen af NOhun.
She believed that fingerprinting individuals would lead to the criminalisation of foreign citizens.
Gruppen vil dog stemme i mod de fleste af ændringsforslagene, fordi man vil understrege, at den bedst mulige teknologi bør tages i anvendelse så hurtigt som muligt for at nedsætte forureningen mest muligt.
While Robert EVANS (PES, London) recognised these concerns, he felt that a system had to be built in with adequate safeguards to guarantee civil liberties and the rights of the people concerned.
Parlamentet må støtte en lang række foranstaltninger for at bringe C02-udledningen ned på de niveauer, der er fastsat i Kyoto-aftalen, sagde
He too took issue with those who seemed to have no sympathy with vulnerable people in a very difficult position.

While he could accept some amendments, such as for example avoiding the term

The legislation would not apply to Denmark.
Endelig foreslår udvalget, at forordningen også skal gælde for borgere fra tredielande, der har taget lovligt ophold i EU.
In the subsequent vote, MEPs adopted the resolution by 196 votes to 70 with 24 abstentions.
I følge udvalget skal medlemsstaterne ikke kunne afvise at anerkende en skilsmisse med den begrundelse, at den ikke anerkendes af det pågældende tredjeland.
