Official figures for 1996 show that last year the European Commission in Brussels produced 2,525 directives and regulations.

"Hvis staten overlader ansvaret for at kontrollere indvandrere til f.eks. luftfartsselskaber eller ar­bejdsgivere, mister den offentli­ge politik sin kraft, kontrollen bli­ver utroværdig, og det fremmer et klima af mistænksomhed.
The 17-strong committee looked into what is known in the trade as the "transit" system, which allows the temporary sus­pension of customs duties, excises and VAT on goods exported from one country to another within the EU.
Hvis vi ikke opmuntrer ansættel­sen af etniske minoriteter og kvinder, vil en politistyrke, som kun tæller hvide mænd, fortsat være modtagelig for snigende racefordomme. Hvis vi accepte­rer arbejdsløshed og udelukkel­se af de unge, gøder vi jorden for intolerance."
This need not necessarily apply just to trade within the EU but also to merchandise brought into Europe from the United States at, for example, Rotterdam with the final desti­nation Morocco via Marseille.

An indication of the size of the problem can be seen from 1993 figures which reveal nearly half a million inquiries across 12 states, with 4,000 outstanding in the UK alone one year after the original declaration.
De græske myndigheder har bevist, at tabene var væsentligt mindre end først antaget, oplyste Fischler.
Those manipulating the system are thus able to take advantage of the delays in the full knowledge that by the time anything untoward has been detected there will have been ample time to unload the goods on the black market and disappear.
Over halvdelen af det omstridte beløb for mulige tab på 800 mio ecu dre­jer sig om den manglende op­krævning af medansvarsafgiften for mælk i Italien. Derfor er proble­met langt fra så stort som antydet, sagde kommissæren.
In one case 76 truckloads of tobacco and alcohol involving an evasion of 7 billion escudos (Ecu30m) in Portuguese customs duties were spirited away before the ship­ping company guaranteeing the operation woke up to what was going on.
I en betænkning af den hollandske liberale Jan Mulder misbilliger Budgetkontroludvalget, at Kom­missionen den 10. april 1996 be­sluttede at reducere den finansiel­le korrektion for den offentlige op­lagring af oksekød i Irland med 30,3 mio ecu.
The case was referred to the European Parliament President's mediator on child abduction, Mary Banotti MEP, last December.

Men der er allerede fremskridt at spore: alle gen­modificerede varer vil nu blive mærket.
Reforming the European Union
Karin Riis­Jør­gensen (Venstre) bemærkede i sit indlæg, at formanden for Kommis­sionen, Jaques Santer, dagen før Parlamentets debat om forbruger­politik lovede, at en mærkning er på trapperne.
In 1993 a freight forwarding busi­ness in Portugal was offered a con­tract to import alcohol from the USA to the Czech Republic.
Hans løfte blev afgi­vet i forbindelse med Parlamen­tets debat om kogalskab.
The customer was apparently in the US, but contact was by fax and telephone only.
Kommis­sionens oplæg blev kritiseret for at være for vagt og overordnet.
No other evidence was obtainable of the proper completion of the proce­dures for any of the consignments, whether of alcohol or cigarettes.
Kom­missionen havde lavet en medde­lelse om EUs fremtidige forbruger­politik, hvori man fremhævede ti områder, hvor forbrugernes stilling skal forbedres. Parlamentet efter­lyste færre målsætninger med mere handling bag.

Reforming the European Union, a new book from the Federal Trust, examines how an incoming UK government could refurbish Britain's European policy.
Det kan ikke være meningen, at ulande­ne, og især i katastrofesituatio­ner, skal påføres unge ukvalifi­cerede europæere for at afhjæl­pe arbejdsløsheden i Europa."

­ Jeg håber så, at Kommis­sionen er klar over, at det ikke er en mirakelkur alene at mærke, sagde Karin Riis­Jørgensen, og advarede imod en skov af mær­ker, som forbrugeren ikke kan gennemskue.
Both customer and transport firm disappeared, although a Germany company, with an address in Hamburg, which was involved in 42 of the consignments, was contacted.
Forbrugerpolitikken skal styrkes. Så meget er Parlamentet og Kom­missionen enige om.
The alcohol shipments came to a bonded warehouse in Lisbon by container and were then unloaded, stored and reloaded onto lorries provided by the customer.
Dette skal ses i lyset af kogalskabens trage­die og diskussionen om gen­modi­ficerede fødevarer, der i øjeblikket blusser som et granbål i hele Uni­onen.
The freight forwarding agency was responsible for these services and for the paperwork, but had no con­trol over the onward transport.

A bill for Ecu2.3m was then pre­sented by customs to the first for­warding agency for the tax and excise which should have been paid on the first ten consignments.
­ Jer tror, at vi må erkende, at det for vanskeligt og dyrt at lave en ny og helt enslydende forbruger­politik og forbrugeroplysning, fordi behovene simpelthen er for for­skellige, sagde Ulla Sandbæk.
A second bill for at least 60 con­signments was presented to the other agency, amounting to over Ecu35m.
Vi vil­le ikke have haft undersøgelses­udvalget, der har kunnet frem­skaffe mængder af papir, som vi burde have haft automatisk. EU skal have offentlighed i forvalt­ningen, og kogalskaben hjælper til at illustrere behovet.

• in relation to the certificate of Spanish law, they had considered bringing a live witness, whose specific knowledge would warrant the expenditure involved; and offence under Spanish law but the judge did not consider it to be sufficiently clear.
Det begrundes bl.a. med, at det skal forhindre en ødelæggende konkurrence på det indre marked på grundlag af en ud huling af den sociale beskyttelse.
He was left uncertain, for example, as to the extent of the penalty that the offence should carry.
Det er vigtigt med et højt beskyttelsesniveau i EU; men man skal være varsom, når man i betænkningen foreslår en gradvis samordning af de sociale beskyttelsesordninger, advarede hun.
ONE of the problems in tackling cross-border fraud is mounting successful prosecutions with the problem of evidence gathered in one country being accepted by courts in another.
Hun fandt det også en meget dårlig idé at indføre sociale sikringsordninger på fællesskabsplan ved hjælp af kvalificeret flertal.
The pitfalls of such operations can be seen in one unsuccessful case brought by UK customs before Southwark Crown Court in London in May last year.
Ovennævnte betragtninger er hentet fra indledningen til Europa-Kommissionens beretning om social beskyttelse i Europa.
• in relation to the conspiracy charge, they had argued that the conspiracy was directed not at them but at the Freight Transport Association by putting the organisation at financial risk on the guarantee that it had issued.
Udviklingen af omfattende sociale sikringssystemer til støtte og hjælp for borgerne har været karakteristisk for efterkrigstidens Europa. Systemerne er forskellige, for så vidt angår udformning og finansiering, og afspejler kulturelle, historiske og institutionelle forskelle mellem med lemsstaterne.
Ireland and Greece were particularly singled out over payments for beef storage and cotton, with MEPs particularly incensed by the Commission's approach of reaching a deal with the national governments or, as Terry Wynn (Merseyside East and Wigan) put it, yielding to political pressure in reducing the amount to be repaid to the EU budget in exchange for better controls in the future.
De har dog det til fælles, at de beskytter alle, der har brug for støtte - midlertidigt, hvis de bliver syge eller får et barn, eller for en længere periode, hvis de trækker sig tilbage fra betalt beskæftigelse eller bliver varigt handicappede -uanset deres evne til at betale. Det, at denne støtte omfatter alle, adskiller de sociale beskyttelsessystemer i EU-landene fra de fleste systemer i andre dele af verden.
The prosecution brought the case under three counts: under the first two, it claimed that the defendants were committing a serious offence against the law of another member state, contrary to the provisions of the Criminal Justice Act 1993; and under the third, it maintained that they were guilty of conspiracy to contravene the Customs and Excise Management Act 1979.

Den hollandske statssekretær i Udenrigsminiseriet, Michiel Patijn mente ikke, at der er grund til bekymring i de baltiske lande.
This leads to the question of whether the system is really necessary, but the committee reached the conclusion that as long as different tax and excise rates pre­vailed across the EU, transit arrange­ments could not be abolished.
Det tog også to år at få ratificeret de andre Europa aftaler.
As to practical reforms to improve the present system it is clearly impractical to consider the imposition of customs charges or inspection of every vehicle.
De enkelte EU-lande har hver især deres egne procedurer for ratificering; men processen må ikke trækkes unødigt i langdrag, og det vil landene blive gjort opmærksom på, lovede rådsformanden.
