Alt i alt fandt der 1 122 sammenlægninger mellem virksomhe­der sted, hvilket er rekorden hidtil og udgør en stigning på 9 % i forhold til de foregående tolv måneder.
The total number of mergers, takeovers and joint ventures within the EC reached a record level of 1 122 operations, an increase of 9 % in relation to the previous 12 months.
Til gengæld har der været et mindre fald i antallet af sådanne transaktioner inden for tjeneste­ydelsessektoren.
However, there was a slight fall in the number of such operations in the banking sector.
»Handlingsorgan for Borgernes Europa« (ECAS i forkortelse) er navnet på en forening, der blev lanceret i Bruxelles i sommer, og som vil for­svare almindelige borgeres interesser og rettigheder over for De Euro­pæiske Fællesskabers institutioner.
'Eurocitizen action service' (ECAS) is the name chosen by an association launched in Brussels this summer. Its aim is to assert the rights and interests of the man in the street before EC institutions.
Stifterne af ECAS tog udgangs­punkt i, at den almindelige borger står svagere end økonomiske og kommercielle interessegrupper på det indre marked uden grænser, og besluttede derfor at give forskellige borgersammenslutninger mulighed for at blive hørt i europæisk sammenhæng.
Its founders took the view that individuals are at a disadvantage, as compared to bodies representing economic and commercial inter­ests, in the preparations for the single market. They decided, therefore, to provide citizens' organizations with the means to make themselves heard at the Community level.
ECAS har udvalgt priorite­rede aktivitetsområder, som ikke i forvejen er dækket af andre europæ­iske organisationer: stemmeret, bopælsret, uddannelse, kultur, sund­hed og fattigdomsbekæmpelse.
ECAS will concentrate its activities on a priority basis in areas which other European organi­zations do not cover: voting rights, the right of residence, educa­tion, culture, health and the fight against poverty.
ECAS er en non profit­service, der vil informere og rådgive borgersammenslutninger og hjælpe dem med at få kontakter til tilsvarende organisationer i andre EF­lande. Man kan henvende sig til ECAS på adressen rue du Trône, 98 — Bte 8 — 1050 Bruxelles — Tel.: 512­93­60.
ECAS is a non­profit­making organization, which provides citizens' organiza­tions with information and advice, and helps them locate their counterparts in other European Community countries.
»1992« ER POPULÆRT af Eurobarometers team
Ί992' IS POPULAR WITH PEOPLE by the Eurobarometer team
Opinionsundersøgelser er af væsentlig betydning ved udarbejdelsen af Fællesskabets politik, fordi Kommissionen derved kon­stant kan følge udviklingen i offentlighedens og de særligt berørte gruppers ønske om — og accept af — et integreret Europa.
Public opinion polling plays an important role in shaping Community policy, allowing the Commission to review on a continual basis the speed with which European integration is being asked for — and accepted — by the general public and specific groups most affected by it.
Hovedredskabet er EF-Kommissionens opinionsundersøgelsesprogram »Eurobarometer«.
The European Commission's public opinion polling programme — the Eurobarometer — is the main tool for achieving this.
Ved første øjekast skulle man tro, at »1992« først og fremmest ville appellere til dem, der synes at være hovedaktører i skabelsen af EF's enhedsmarked — politikerne, medlemsstaternes og EF's embedsmænd, erhvervsfolk, fagforeningsledere og pressions­grupper, der forsvarer miljøet eller forbrugernes og skatteydernes interesser.
At first thought, '1992' is the sort of initiative one would think appeals primarily to those who seem to be in the front line of making the single European market happen — political leaders, civil servants in national and EC administrations, businessmen, trade union leaders and pressure groups lobby­ing for the defence of the environment or of consumers' and taxpayers' interests.
Men det er manden på gaden, der, ved at støtte tanken, har lagt grunden til »1992«.
Yet one of the foundations of '1992' has been the strong support that the Community has received for this idea from the person in the street.
tisk samfund kølnes begejstringen, efterhånden som argumenter og modargumenter fremføres i den offentlige debat.
paigns on this subject and one would expect a lessening of enthusiasm once the event has been publically debated in more controversial terms — as is normal in any democracy.
Det skal understreges, at denne udvikling ikke betyder, at modstanden mod »1992« er øget.
It should be emphasized that this has not translated into an increase of hostility towards '1992'.
Siden 1987 har der kun været 6-8% af den samlede EF-befolkning, der mente, at enhedsmarkedet er en ulempe.
Since 1987, only between 6 % to 8 % of the population of the European Community as a whole has felt that the single European market is a bad thing.
Hvis man ser bort fra Danmark og Luxembourg (hvor 17% er imod »1992«), er det i de øvrige lande kun én ud af ti bor­gere, der er negativ over for tanken.
Indeed, with the exception of Denmark and Luxem­bourg (where 17 % believe '1992' is a bad thing), no country has more than one in 10 of its citizens feeling negative about '1992'.
Folk er godt klar over, at »1992« på afgørende vis vil ændre deres liv, og at disse ændringer i de kommende år vil komme dem selv og deres børn til gode.
People are realizing that '1992' means some fundamental changes in their lives, changes that will also benefit them and their children in years to come.
De synes udsigterne er spændende.
The prospect seems to excite them.
Men enhedsmarkedet er ikke en foræring, der dumper ned i skødet på dem nytårsdag 1993.
But the single European market is not a Christmas present that will fall into people's laps on New Year's Day 1993.
Det er en udfordring, hvis succes afhænger af, at så mange mennesker som muligt deltager aktivt og engageret.
It is a challenge that will succeed more fully with the active participation and involvement of as many people as possible.
Det er heldigt for Fællesskabet, at der blandt tilhængerne af »1992« er nogle meget indflydelsesrige grupper af de europæiske samfund, især opinionsdannere, hvoraf 57% er for »1992« og kun 9% imod.
The Community is fortunate in that its supporters for '1992' include some of the most influential members of European societies, especially opinion-formers, 57 % of whom are sup­portive with only 9 % against.
Tilhængerne af »1992« er ofte yngre mænd, folk med højere uddannelser og højere indkomster og folk fra de højere socio-økonomiske lag.
Supporters of '1992' are more likely to be males, younger people, the better educated and those with higher incomes and from higher socio-economic groups.
Som forventet registreres den største interesse blandt akademikere samt virksomhedsledere og -ejere.
Unsurprisingly, professionals, managers and owners of businesses are the most positive of occupational groups towards it.
Dette giver »1992« et solidt fundament, navnlig blandt opinions­dannerne på det økonomiske område.
This gives '1992' a strong foundation, especially with those who lead public opinion in the economic field.
Ifølge det seneste Eurobarometer fra dette forår vokser den sam­lede opbakning om EF i mange lande fortsat hurtigt.
The latest Eurobarometer survey of spring this year shows that overall support for the European Community continues to grow apace in many countries.
Dette gælder især Det Forenede Kongerige og Danmark, hvor EF-tilhængernes flertal traditionelt har været meget snævert.
This is especially true in the United Kingdom and Denmark, where majorities supporting the European Community have been traditionally weaker.
Nu mener 65% af Europas borgere, at medlemskab af Det Europæiske Fællesskaber noget positivt, herunder 53% af den britiske og 49% af den danske befolkning; et flertal af dem, der har en mening herom, siger, at deres lande har fordel af medlemskabet.
Now 65 % of European citizens think membership of the European Community is a good thing, including 53 % of Britons and 49 % of Danes, and a majority of people with an opinion say their countries benefit from their membership of the Community.
Den bredeste opbakning af Fællesskabet findes i Holland og Italien, hvor så meget som henholdsvis 82 og 75 % af befokningerne mener, at medlemskabet eren fordel, og kun 3 % er af den modsatte mening (sammenlignet med 25 % i Danmark og 19 % i Det Forenede Kon­gerige).
The Community's greatest supporters are to be found in the Netherlands and Italy, where a staggering 82 % and 75 % respectively think membership of the Commu­nity is a good thing, with only 3 % of those populations believing the opposite (compared with 25 % in Denmark and 19 % in the United Kingdom).
Man kunne have forestillet sig, at de mangfoldige virkninger af »1992« på den enkeltes liv ville have skræmt mange.
One would have thought that some people might feel threat­ened by the enormity of the implications that '1992' may have for everyone.
Men de fleste europæere nærer forhåbninger til den nye udvikling.
Yet most Europeans feel quite hopeful about how things will turn out.
I foråret 1990 sagde 60% af EF's borgere, at de forventede sig en del eller meget af enhedsmarkedet, medens 20% var bekymrede og 6% direkte bange for det.
In the spring of 1990, 60 % of European Community citizens said that they felt very or rather hopeful about the single European market while 20 % de­clared themselves 'rather fearful', and only 6 % 'very fearful'.
Der har ikke i EF som helhed kunnet spores væsentlige ændringer i disse holdninger, siden de første gang kom til udtryk i begyndelsen af 1988.1 alle landene indtager over halv­delen af befolkningen en positiv holdning til det europæiske enhedsmarked, bortset fra Luxembourg, hvis befolkning er delt midt over: 44% er for og 45 % imod.
This point of view has remained fairly steady for the Commu­nity as a whole since it was first measured at the beginning of 1988. In no country does less than half the population feel hopeful about the single European market except for Luxem­bourg where the population is split down the middle on the issue (44 % hopeful versus 45 % fearful).
Endnu en gang gælder det, at de mennesker, der synes at være optimistiske angående denne fremtidige udvikling, hovedsagelig hører hjemme i EF's mindre velstående og/eller sydlige lande — Irland, Italien, Spanien og Portugal.
The people most likely to be optimistic about the future in this respect are, once again, found primarily in the less wealthy and/or southern countries of the Community — Ireland, Italy, Spain and Portugal in particular.
Også »1992« får tilslutning fra et flertal.
The '1992' initiative also commands majority support.
45% af Fællesskabets borgere mener, at »1992« er en personlig fordel for dem, sammen­lignet med 8 %, der mener det modsatte, og 32 %, som ikke tror, at »1992« vil berøre dem.
45 % of European Community citizens think '1992' is a good thing for them personally, compared to only 8 % who believe it is a bad thing and 32 % who do not think '1992' will make any difference to people like them.
Det er især i Fællesskabets sydlige med­lemslande — Italien, Spanien, Grækenland og Portugal — samt ilrland, at folk bakker bredt op omkring »1992«.
Support for '1992' is particular­ly strong from people in the southern member countries of the Community — Italy, Spain, Greece and Portugal — as well as Ireland.
Flertallet af bor­gere i disse lande finder, at det er en særlig fordel at være en del af et større frihandelsområde.
A majority of people from these countries see specific benefits in being part of a larger free market.
Dette skyldes måske deres tro på, at levestandarden hos dem vil blive hævet til samme niveau som i de mere velstående euro­pæiske lande.
This is perhaps the case because they believe that the standard of life in their communities will be brought up to the level of the richer parts of Europe.
Måske rummer sådanne tilkendegivelser også et håb om, at lavere lønomkostninger vil medføre flere jobs i deres hjemegn, når endnu flere af hindringerne for at tage arbejde på Fællesskabets område er blevet afskaffet.
They may also be expressing the hope that low labout costs will mean an increase in the number of jobs in their area once barriers of employment within the Community are more completely removed.
Den opbakning, som manden på gaden giver et så omfattende pro­jekt som »1992«, afhænger naturligvis af, hvordan han selv mener, han kan drage fordel af dette aspekt af sit EF-borgerskab.
Support for such a big idea as '1992' clearly has to centre around how people in the street feel they can themselves benefit from this aspect of their European Community citi­zenship.
Mange har allerede opdaget de generelle fordele ved EF-medlemskabet, f.eks. at mænd og kvinder sikres ligebehandling.
Many are already aware of some of the benefits of their general association with the Community, such as guaran­teed equal rights for men and women.
Men efterhån­den knyttes den enkeltes interesse derfor mere til udfaldet af en vurdering af de personlige fordele, som han kan få af »1992«, nem­lig fri bevægelighed for personer, varer og kapital samt en fælles­nævner for arbejdstagernes og arbejdsgivernes rettigheder og pligter.
Nevertheless, this awareness is becoming more linked with an appreciation of the personal advantages that '1992' will bring in terms of free circulation of persons, goods and capital as well as a common benchmark for the rights and lesponsibilities of workers and employers.
I de rigere lande i Fællesskabets nordligere del er begejstringen for enhedsmarkedet dog aftagende.
On the other hand, the richer nations in the north of the European Community are growing less enthusiastic about the single European market.
I de seneste tre år er antallet af dem, der mener, at »1992« er en fordel, gradvist faldet i Fælles­skabet som helhed, nemlig fra 57 % i 1987 til 45 % i 1990. Samtidig er der en stigning i antallet af personer, der mener, at »1992 intet ændrer«. Dette kan måske delvis forklares ved, at folk allerede har vænnet sig til tanken om 1992.
Between 1987 and 1990, the percen­tage saying that '1992' is a good thing has declined gradually in the Community as a whole from 57 % in 1987 to 45 % in 1990, while the percentage of those who say '1992 makes no difference' has increased.
De tre lande, hvor begejstrin­gen for 1992 er dalet mest, er Luxembourg (fra 61%, der mente, at det var en fordel, til 36%), Belgien (fra 66 til 41%) og Frankrig (fra 56 til 36%).
The greatest reductions for '1992' have been in Luxembourg (61 % to 36 % saying it is a 'good thing'), Belgium (66 % to 41 %) and France (56 % to 36 %).
Man må heller ikke glemme, at opbakningen til »1992« i mange lande var usædvanlig kraftig ved starten af oplys­ningskampagnerne herom, og som det er naturligt i et demokra­
It should also be remem­bered that support for the '1992' initiative was exceptionally high in many countries at the start of the information cam­
Meningsmålinger foretaget mellem 1987 og 1989 i hele Fællesska­bet viser, at et stort flertal af borgerne er overbevist om fordelene ved det europæiske enhedsmarked.
Between 1987-89, Community-wide polls show large majori­ties of Europe's citizens convinced of the advantages of the single European market.
Mindst 4 ud af 5 EF-borgere
At least four out of five Community
pæiske Råds møde i december 1989 en erklæring om oprettelse af »fællesskabspagten om de grundlæggende sociale og arbejds­markedsmæssige rettigheder«, også kaldet »socialpagten«.
European Council of Heads of State or Government of the European Community adopted a declaration constituting a Community Charter of Fundamental Social Rights, or Social Charter, to set in motion the procedures to bring this about.
Den sociale dimension er så populær i Fællesskabet, at den høster større opbakning fra offentligheden end »1992« i sig selv : 64% går ind for socialpagten mod kun 45 % for »1992« som helhed på trods af den britiske regerings modstand mod socialpagten udtaler 67 % af briterne sig positivt om den.
This idea is very popular within the Community, to the extent that there is more public support for the idea of the Social Charter than the concept of '1992' as a whole — 64 % supporting the Social Charter compared with 45 % for '1992' as a whole (including 67 % of Britons supporting the Social Charter, despite the UK Government's opposition to this measure).
mener, at det afgjort er en fordel at kunne foretage betalinger uden større formaliteter, rejse inden for Fællesskabet med så mange penge på sig, man vil, købe varer andre steder i EF og uhindret bosætte sig, hvor man ønsker.
citizens see making payments without formality, carrying unlimited amounts of money within the Community, buying products marketed elsewhere in the Community and residing anywhere without restriction as clear-cut advantages.
Over to tredjedele af EF's befolk­ning synes godt om at kunne arbejde, åbne en bankkonto og købe grund, hvor de ønsker i Fællesskabet, for slet ikke at tale om af­skaffelsen af grænsekontrollen og den indbyrdes tilpasning af momssatserne.
More than two-thirds like the idea of being able to work, open a bank account and buy land anywhere they want within the Community as well as see border controls eliminated and VAT rates of different countries being brought together.
Den eneste fordel, der tilsyneladende vækker nogen usikkerhed, er et lands ret til at indgå kontrakt om offent­lige arbejder med et udenlandsk selskab, såfremt et sådant er i stand til at tilbyde samme kvalitet arbejde til en lavere pris (56% mener, det er godt, 32%, at det er dårligt).
The only advantage that seems to provoke some marginal uncertainty is the right for any country to contract its public works to another country's company if the latter company was able to offer the same quality at less expense (56 % advantage versus 32 % disadvantage).
I alle landene slutter et flertal af befolkningerne op omkring socialpagten, bl.a. over to tredjedele af de adspurgte i Græken­land, Nederlandene, Italien og Det Forenede Kongerige.
The Social Charter receives support from a majority of people in all countries of the Community, including more than two-thirds of people answering the question in Greece, the Netherlands, Italy and the United Kingdom.
Selv i Luxembourg, hvor begejstringen er mindre udpræget, mener halvdelen af befolkningen, at socialpagten er en fordel.
Even in Luxem­bourg, where support is least enthusiastic, half the population believe the Social Charter is a good thing.
Også her viser der sig at være visse forskelle inden for EF.
Again certain differences reveal themselves within the Commu­nity.
Spa­niere, irere, italienere og portugisere giver første prioritet til ret­ten til at arbejde og bosætte sig i et hvilket som helst EF-land.
For Spaniards, the Irish, the Italians and the Portuguese, the right to work in any country within the Community comes top of the list of advantages coupled with the ability to take up residence anywhere.
For borgerne i de nordligere lande, såsom Frankrig, Tyskland og Det Forenede Kongerige, ligger fordelene mere i, at man uden kom­plikationer kan udføre betalinger og medtage så store beløb, man vil, overalt i EF.
For northern countries, such as France, West Germany and the United Kingdom, the advantages lie more with the ability to make payments and carry any amount of money without complication within the Community.
EF-Kommissionen er ved at udarbejde et program for Fællesska­bets lovgivning for at realisere den sociale dimension.
The European Commission is preparing a programme of Community legislation on the social dimension.
Folk tilslut­ter sig Kommissionens planer for et »socialt handlingsprogram«. De mener, at de grundlæggende rettigheder bør lovfæstes i alle EF-landene, især foranstaltninger til sikring af ældres, handicap­pedes og unge arbejdstageres sociale rettigheder.
People agree with the Commission's idea for a Social Action Programme, believing that legislation on basic principles should be applied in all countries of the Community, in particular measures such as protection for the social rights of the elderly, the disabled and young workers.
Højst 15% af befolkningerne var imod, mens mindst 77% støttede samtlige foranstaltninger, bortset fra én, nemlig spørgsmålet om sociale rettigheder i EF for personer fra lande uden for Fællesskabet, hvor der dog var 62% for og kun 22% imod.
All measures received the support of no less than 77 % of people (with no more than 15 % against) with the exception of one issue — social rights in the EC for people from non-member countries, where nevertheless 62 % supported the idea, while 22 % opposed.
En af målsætningerne for det europæiske enhedsmarked er at bringe medlemsstaternes økonomier på linje med hinanden ved at gøre EF's mindre udviklede regioner rigere.
One of the objectives of the single European market is to close the gap in prosperity between the Member States by increasing the wealth of less-developed regions of the Community.
Også dette aspekt af 1992-programmet bakkes op af EF-borgerne.
EC citizens support that aspect of the 1992 programme as well.
Da spørgsmålet blev stillet i 1988, mente 45% af borgerne (modsat 10%), at EF's finansielle støtte til vanskeligt stillede regioner skulle fordobles, mens 54 % (mod 4 % ) var enige i, at EF bør tage skridt til at forbed­re sådanne regioners infrastrukturer, f.eks. veje, lufthavne og uddannelsescentre.
When this question was asked in 1988, 45 % of European Community citizens, as opposed to 10 %, believed that EC grants should be doubled for regions in difficulties while, by 54 % to 4 %, people agreed that the EC should take action to improve infrastructure, such as roads, airports and training centres, in these regions.
Flertallet i alle EF-landene går mere eller mindre ind også for sådanne aktiviteter, men selvfølgelig er begej­stringen størst i de økonomisk svagere lande.
Majorities in all EC countries sup­port, rather than oppose these additional initiatives with, of course, those countries with less-developed economies more enthusiastic than the richer ones.
Der er ingen tvivl om, at »1992«-programmet generelt har bety­det, at Fællesskabet som sådant har fået tilført nyt blod.
Overall, it is undoubtedly true that the 1992 programme has been a shot in the arm for the Community as a whole.
Fra 1985 til i dag er der opnået enighed om 60% af de 279 foranstaltninger til gennemførelse af det europæiske enhedsmarked.
Between 1985 and now, 60 % of the 279 measures to bring about the single European market have been agreed upon.
I forventning om fordelene af »1992« har virksomhederne i EF allerede planer om »joint ventures«.
EC compa­nies are already moving towards joint ventures in anticipation of the benefits of '1992'.
Herudover har Fællesskabet udvidet hori­sonten på andre felter — oprettelsen af et fælles økonomisk område mellem EF- og EFTA-landene, koordinering af Vestens bistand til Østeuropa, bestræbelser i retning afsåvel Den Økono­miske og Monetære som Den Politiske Union.
In addition, the Community has been broadening its horizons into other areas — the creation of a European economic space with the six countries of the Euro­pean Free Trade Association (EFTA), the coordination of Western assistance into Eastern Europe, moves towards eco­nomic and monetary union as well as political union.
Denne pludselige udvidelse af aktiviteterne har gjort det mere attraktivt at være EF-borger.
The sudden expansion of activity has added value to being a citizen of the Community.
Imidlertid har den fortsatte udvidelse af EF's arbejdsom­råder måske også ført til, at medierne i mindre grad fokuserede på »1992«.
The ever-widening portfolio of EC activi­ties has, however, also perhaps led to less attention being placed on the issue of '1992' by the media.
11988-1989 udtalte tre fjerdedele af EF-borgerne med jævne mellemrum, at de havde hørt noget i medierne om »1992«, hvorimod denne andel i foråret 1990 udgjorde to tredjedele dvs. 66%, hvilket dog stadig er højt.
In 1988-89, around three-quarters of EC citizens regularly said that they had heard something in the media about '1992', while the percentage for the spring of 1990 was two-thirds, a still-high 66 %.
