Under førstebehandlingen kikker Parlamentet på sagen og kan foreslå ændringer.
AS WELL AS human rights in Third World countries Parliament also maintains a watching brief on the situation within the EU, and this month in Strasbourg MEPs discussed a report by Aline Pailler (F, EUL/NGL).
Forhandlinger kan indledes med alle de lande, der lever op til krite­rierne om et stabilt demokratisk system, sikring af menneskeret­tighederne og beskyttelse af mindretallene.

Det sagde Europa­Parlamentet forud for topmødet i Luxembourg. Parlamentet var derfor tilfreds med, at det også var den linie, stats­ og regerings­cheferne valgte på topmødet.

Parlamentet drøfter nu igen forslaget og kan foreslå ændringer til Rådets fælles holdning.
Human rights clauses were assembly by parliamentarians rather than officials has inc­reased significantly.
Hvis parlamentsmedlemmerne er meget utilfredse, kan de dog også vælge at forkaste den fælles holdning.

According to Aline Pailler (F, EUL/NGL), who presented a report on the issue, 1996 was a year in which serious problems emerged in connection with immigration and the right of asylum.
Europa­Parlamentet har bl.a. presset på for, at de central­ og østeuro­pæiske lande også kommer med i EU­programmerne som f.eks. ud­dannelsesprogrammet Sokrates.
"I am opposed", she said, "to the notion of a 'fortress Europe' and advocate instead a Europe based on fraternity and solidar­ity." The EU, she said, needed to establish specific rights for immigrants and asylum applicants as quickly as possible.
Parlamentet fik også overbevist Ministerrådet om, at der skulle sættes flere penge af til program­met, så det kan realiseres.
She wanted non­EU immigrants to enjoy the same rights as nationals of the country in which they were living, including the right to vote in local elections if they resided in a country for over five years.

Hvis ikke der opnås enighed, eller hvis kompromiset forkastes, er lovfor­slaget ikke vedtaget.
Others argued that the fight for human rights was universal and that the EU must accept self­criticism.
Europa­Par­lamentet har altså med denne procedure en vetoret.
She had, he said, "been driven to the edge of insanity".
Sådan vil det fungere, hvis der ik­ke er den store uenighed mellem ministrene og Europa­Parlament­et.
Mrs Pailler argued that the EU must ensure that human rights are fully respected by the member states if it wishes to have any credibility when demanding that human rights be respected by third countries as a condi­tion for receiving EU aid and trade bene­fits.
Hvis Parlamentet ikke foreslår ændringer, eller hvis Rådet kan godkende alle Parlamentets ænd­ringer, kan loven vedtages allere­de efter førstebehandlingen.
She also stressed the need for a broad definition of human rights, believ­ing that the rights to a job, to housing and a decent standard of living were as important as civil rights such as freedom of speech.

The picture was not all gloom and Mrs Pailler welcomed the inclusion in EU legislation and agreements of non­discrimination clauses banning discrimination based on ethnic origin, sex, colour, religion, national origin and sexual orientation.

Det har fra Europa-Parlamentets fødsel været et fast princip, at medlemmerne i debatterne taler deres eget sprog - og at alle mødedokumenterne også foreligger på disse sprog. Til at begynde med var der fire sprog (fransk, tysk, italiensk og hollandsk).
MEPs welcomed the Kyoto agreement but there was wide­spread support for the adoption of a tougher stance on reducing greenhouse gas emissions even further by both 2005 and 2010 by, for example, setting a target for the use of renewable energy sources at 15 per cent of energy demand by 2010.
