Konvergensbestræbelserne i den økonomiske politik må imidlertid øges yderligere, navnlig på det budgetmæssige, det omkostningsmæssige og det beskæftigelsesmæssige område, dersom målsætningen om skabelse af en stabil valutazone i Europa skal gennemføres.
However, the attempt at the convergence of economic policies, especially as regards budgets, production costs and employment, must be rein forced if the aim of the creation of a zone of monetary stability in Europe is to be attained.
Derfor var Rådet enigt om, at det er vigtigt på en realistisk måde, men i betydelig grad at udvikle EMS' interne styrke og dets formåen udadtil.
Ac cordingly the Council agreed on the importance of increasing in a realistic but meaningful manner the internal strength of the EMS and its capacity for external expression.
Med henblik herpå konkluderede Rådet efter en indgående drøftelse, at det er muligt og ønskeligt at udbygge EMS ved en mere aktiv samordning af medlemsstaternes økonomiske og monetære politik, ved på pragmatisk vis at styrke de tekniske mekanismer for gensidig bistand, ved at frcm-
To this end the Council, after thorough discussion, concluded that it was possible and desirable to develop the EMS further by more actively coordinating the economic and monetary policies of the Member States, by prag matically strengthening the technical mechanisms for mutual assistance, by encouraging and de veloping the use of the ECU and by improving monetary cooperation between the Community and third countries.
Af denne grund blev mandatsagen kun lige berørt på Det europæiske Råds møde den 29. og 30. marts.
The mandate was therefore considered only briefly at the European Council on 29 and 30 March.

At the close of the discussions the Council, while noting that the two institutions still disagreed on certain substantive questions regarding NCI II, stressed the urgency of the matter, as the 1 000 million ECU allocated to NCI I was fully committed, and adopted the basic proposal made in October 1980.4 The President of the Council also stated that he expected to receive in the very near future Parliament's opinion on the proposed Decision implementing NCI II.5Lastly, the Council and Parliament took note of the Commission's intention of submitting prop osals for the continuation of the NCI, to which the conciliation procedure would again apply.

On 17 March the Commission adopted a Directive1adapting to technical progress for the second time the Council Di rective2of 27 July 1976 on the approxima tion of the laws of the Member States relating to the installation of lighting and lightsignalling devices on motor vehicles and their trailers. This second adaptation is concerned principally with devices for adjusting the angle of inclination of the dipped beam as a function of the load.

The Commission and the national administrations are also continuing to ensure strict enforcement of the import pricing provisions set out in the arrangements with certain non-member countries and observance of the basic prices by countries with which no arrangements have been concluded.
Kommissionen vedtog den 3. marts:) reduktionssatser for produkter, som er underlagt produktionskvoter, og disse er lasisat på følgende måde:
On 3 March1the Commission set the following rates of abatement for products co vered by production quotas:

Hvis man ser bort fra de sæsonmæssige påvirkninger, er brugerindustriens aktivitet i 2. kvartal af 1982 øget i forhold til 1. kvartal, hvilket til en vis grad afspejler klimabctingelscrne på dette tidspunkt af året.
Imports, which had been running during the first three quarters of 1981 at a rate slightly below 2 million tonnes crude steel equivalent, increased through the fourth quarter to levels more or less on a par with the levels of preceding years. The latest information for the second quarter of 1982 suggests that imports should reach 2.3 million tonnes crude steel equivalent.

On this basis Community crude steel production for the second quarter would be 31.5 million tonnes, compared with 32.3 million tonnes in the second quarter of 1981 and 31.5 million tonnes in the fourth quarter of 1981.
På basis af de seneste oplysninger fra 2. kvartal af 1982 vil importen udgøre 2.3 mio t råstålækvivalenter.

The continuing economic difficulties and their in­dustrial and social consequences represent, now more than ever before, a challenge to any com­petition policy.
Da det drejer sig om en rammeforordning, kan Kommissionen træffe gennemførelsesbestemmelser efter udtalelse fra det udvalg vcdrorcndc økonomisk passiv forædling af tekstiler, der nedsættes i henhold til den ny forordning.
As is clear from the Treaties, the Community is essentially based on a market economy in which fair, undistorted competition is supposed to ensure that available resources are al­located to the most productive sectors, to stimu­late firms to make use of their know-how and skills and to encourage them to invent, develop and exploit efficiently new techniques and new products.
De nye bestemmelser træder i kraft den 1. september den for Fællesskabet fra én medlemsstat med henblik på midlertidig anvendelse i en eller liere andre medlemsstater, som den havde forelagt Rådet den 28. juli 1981 7).
Its success depends on the determination and ability of business to take an active and dynamic part in a single Community market whose scale is a fun­damental asset to European industry, since it per­mits the development of innovative, high-per­formance firms which outgrow the national markets.

Der bør allerede nu skabes en realistisk balance i Kom­missionens støttepolitik, så der skabes garanti for, ai støtteforanstaltningerne på ingen måde, enten på grunc af beløbenes størrelse eller på grund af støttevilkårenc udgor en risiko for enhedsmarkedet, uden at man doj forhindrer støttegivning. der som en foreløbig foran­staltning bidrager effektivt og varigt til EFs økonomi­ske og sociale genrejsning.
The Commission's policy on aid must therefore strike a realistic balance by ensuring that assist ance in no way, because of its scale or the terms on which it is granted, jeopardizes the unity of the market, but without preventing the use of those aids which, as transitional measures, make an effective, lasting contribution to the Community's economic and social recovery.
Generelt indtager Kommissionen en positiv holdning til støtte, der fremmer virksomhedernes tilpasning ti de nye forhold på energimarkedet samt de skærpede miljømæssige krav. eller som bidrager til at fremme den teknologiske udvikling i EF, selv om den dog fast­sætter visse nærmere betingelser for sådan støtte.
In general, the Commission adopts a positive approach—-in so far as, it complies with the relevant guidelines—to aid which promotes the adaptation of firms to the new conditions governing the energy market or to stricter environmental protection requirements, or which helps to promote technological developments in the Community.
Der anlægger ligeledes et positivt syn på støtteforanstaltnin­ger, som virker i retning af at skabe en bedre balance mellem regionerne, eller som gør del muligl at løse sær­lige problemer, f.eks. ungdomsarbejdsløsheden. Disse eksempler viser i øvrigt den snævre forbindelse mellerr Kommissionens politik over for medlemsstaterne: støttegivning og indsættelsen af EFs egne instrumentei på dette område.
It also views in a favourable light aid which serves to promote a better balance between the regions or which makes it possible to tackle particular problems, such as youth unemployment.
Som det er tilfæl­det med de tidligere beretninger om konkurren­cepolitikken, indeholder Ellevte Beretning en re­degørelse for udviklingen i Fællesskabets Kon­kurrencepolitik i det forløbne år.
It would be wrong to try to overcome economic or employment difficulties by granting firms financial benefits enabling them to increase their competitiveness only artificially.
Der bør dog i denne forbindelse også tages hensyn ti nødvendigheden af at undgå konkurrencefordrejningei i EF.
they are subject and the undertakings themselves are bound by all the principles and rules laid down in the Treaty and, in particular, by all the competition rules.
Især for de kriseramte erhvervs vedkommende — og det gælder især stål­, tekstil­ og værftsindustrien ­må en sådan politik indebære, at der fastsættes strenge principper for støttegivning, og at disse overholdes.
As regards application of the EEC Treaty provisions concerning restrictive practices and dominant positions in individual cases the Commission, regarding respect for the unity of the Community market as being of prime importance, has continued its policy of imposing deterrent fines in cases of restrictive or abusive practices designed to isolate national markets. But competition policy does not by any means have only a preventive role.
De ville være forkert al søge at løse de økonomiske ellei beskæftigelsesmæssige vanskeligheder ved at give virk­somhederne finansielle fordele, som på kunstig vis sat­te dem i stand til at øge deres konkurrenceevne.
It also fulfils a positive role, granting exemption from the ban on restrictive practices to ag reements and certain desirable forms of cooper ation between firms by means of individual de cisions or block exemption regulations.
» De stadig vedvarende økonomiske vanskeligheder og de erhvervsmæssige og sociale følger herafer mere end nogen sinde en konkurrencepolitisk udfordring.
At the same time, in order to strengthen the position of small and mediumsized undertakings, which in the present difficult period are an important source of jobs and serve to promote adaptation to the necessary structural changes, the Commission is endeavouring to give practical expression to its support for the various forms of cooperation between these undertakings.
Trak­tatmæssigt bygger EF på markedsøkonomiske princip­per, hvorefter en loyal og ufordrejet konkurrence skal føre til den mest hensigtsmæssige fordeling af de dispo­nible ressourcer, anspore virksomhederne til at mobili­sere al deres viden og kunnen og tvinge dem til at opfinde, udvikle og udnytte nye teknikker og nye pro­dukter på den mest effektive måde.
By generally exempting certain types of agreement, in particular specialization or research and develop ment agreements, from the ban on restrictive practices, it will help small and mediumsized undertakings to cope better with competition from larger undertakings.
De to sidstnævnte funktioner er særlig vigtige i en kriseperiode, fordi virk­somhederne hermed får mulighed for at genskabe, be­vare eller forbedre deres konkurrenceevne.
Similarly, it is consider ing allowing certain major restrictions of competition, in particular in the area of licensing and distribution agreements, as a special concession re stricted to small and mediumsized undertakings.
Kommis­sionen skal derfor overvåge, at konkurrencen kan ud­øve disse funktioner.
The Commission has also manifested a favourable attitude towards State aid for small and mediumsized undertakings.
Det skal imidlertid understreges, al denne politik ikke er inspireret af en laisscz­faire­indstilling. men tilsigter at bevare en effektiv og institutionelt beskyttet konkur­rence.
If the competitiveness of the Community economy is to be maintained and developed, it is therefore vital that the existing scope for effective competition should not be jeopardized by private or government measures.
Et heldigt udfald af en sådan politik afhænger af. om de erhvervsdrivende har vilje og evne lil al optræde aktivt og dynamisk på del fælles marked, hvis størrelse er et fundamentalt aktiv for den europæiske industri: med et marked af denne størrelse er der nemlig åbnet mulighed for, at der kan udvikles fornyende og ydedyg­tige virksomheder, for hvem de nationale markeder bliver for snævre.
The combination of the persistent crisis and the tendency towards oligopolistic structures high lights more than ever before the need, when pursuing policies at Community level, to bear in mind their effects on competition in a Community which is an integral part of the world economy.
De kriseramte erhverv rejser ligeledes problemer mec hensyn til det forhold, at virksomhederne griber ti defensive foranstaltninger i form af de såkaldte ■struk­turkrisekarteller', som må vurderes på baggrund af be stcmmelscrnc om aftaler (...).
The industries in crisis also raise the problem of the introduction of defensive measures by firms, in the form of agreements known as 'structural crisis cartels', and these must be viewed in the light of the provisions governing restrictive practices.
Med hensyn til nationa­liseringer, indtager Kommissionen principielt en neu­tral holdning.
On the question of the nationalization of sectors of the economy the Commission has adopted a neutral position.
En medlemsstats beslutning om at udvi­de det offentliges ejendomsret er ikke et nyt fænomen Det europæiske Fællesskab.
The decision by a Member State to extend public ownership is no innovation as far as the Community is concerned.
