Den lavproduktive arbejdskraft, der frigøres i Europa i forbindelse med produktionsudflytninger, skal uddannes og aktiveres, så den kan sluses ind på andre felter, hvor Europa kan byde på komparative konkurrencefordele.
Workers laid off as a result of relocating production processes outside Europe had to be trained and made available for jobs in areas where Europe had comparative advantages to offer.
Kun en fair konkurrence mellem skattesystemerne om at skabe gode rammevilkår i arbejdstagernes, erhvervslivets og forbrugernes interesse kan betragtes som noget positivt.
Favourable conditions for workers, employers and consumers could not be created unless there was fair competition between tax systems.
På baggrund af den hidtidige udvikling i skattepolitikken og den aktuelt meget høje ledighed slår ØSU kraftigt til lyd for, at man søger at løse problemet med finansieringen af en lempelse af skattebelastningen af arbejdskraften, herunder især en nedbringelse af de lovpligtige, ikke-lønrelaterede arbejdsomkostninger.
Given past trends in tax policy and in particular the current high unemployment, the Committee urged that a way had to be found of financing a reduction in the burden of tax on labour and reducing non-wage labour costs.
ØSU understreger vigtigheden af en minimumsharmonisering af skatter og beregningsgrundlag i forbindelse med kapitalindkomst.
The Committee also stressed the need for minimum harmonisation of taxes and tax bases in relation to income from capital.
Forskellene i skattesystemerne bliver således mere mærkbare og relevante for de økonomiske aktørers beslutningstagning i takt med, at harmoniseringen i det indre marked skrider frem.
The further harmonisation of the internal market progressed, the more clearly differences in tax systems were felt and the more relevant they became for the decisions of economic operators.
ØSU slår endvidere til lyd for et intensiveret samarbejde mellem skattemyndighederne om bekæmpelse af skattesvig og - unddragelse inden for det indre marked.
The Committee also called for closer cooperation between national tax authorities in dealing with tax evasion and fraud, pointing to the need for joint tax inspections in cases of cross-border economic activity.
Der må ligeledes gøres brug af muligheden for at udøve fælles skattemæssig kontrol i forbindelse med grænseoverskridende økonomiske aktiviteter.
This was particularly true of a tax such as VAT, which was a tax on goods and services whose free circulation was a basic element in the construction of the single market and which was, in its conception and legislation, a Community tax.
4) ØSU udtalte sig også om Kommissionens arbejdsprogram med titlen »Et fælles momssystem — et program for det indre marked«. Det understreger
The Committee made special reference in this connection to the advantages of such a VAT system for traders.
i den sammenhæng, at en yderligere styrkelse af det indre marked er nødvendig, hvis man skal høste det fulde udbytte af de oprindelige planer med dette marked.
The Committee strongly supported the principle of attribution of VAT revenues between Member States according to their consumption but it doubted whether a statistical basis could be established which would be sufficiently accurate.
Dette gælder efter ØSU's opfattelse specielt for en afgift som momsen, der for det første er en afgift på varer og tjenesteydelser, hvis frie omsætning er af grundlæggende betydning for det indre marked, og som for det andet er udformet som en fællesskabsafgift.
The Committee also considered that an origin-based system had to be found which would make a narrow spread possible.
ØSU mener, at tilstedeværelsen af 15 forskellige implementeringer og kontrolsystemer er uforenelig med tanken bag det indre marked og ikke harmonerer med kravet om et Europa, der skal være konkurrencedygtigt i forhold til omverdenen. denen.
It believed that progress towards that goal had to give sufficient consideration to the hitherto different positions of the Member States.
ØSU bifalder derfor Kommissionens mål med arbejdsprogrammet, nemlig at afskaffe den nuværende opsplitning af det indre marked i 15 adskilte afgiftsområder, at forenkle og modernisere momssystemet, at sikre ensartet behandling af alle transaktioner i EU samt at fastholde det hidtidige momsprovenu.
The Committee recognised in this context that the introduction of a common system of VAT which was commensurate with the requirements of the internal market would mean that Member State governments would suffer an effective loss of control over their rates of VAT, which were an integral part of their existing fiscal policies.
ØSU bifalder især de fordele, som det nye system vil indebære for erhvervslivet.
The principle of transferring control over monetary policy had already been accepted in relation to the single currency and the extension of this principle to fiscal policy could be regarded as a logical development.
ØSU mener, at et system hvilende på oprindelseslandsprincippet vil stille krav om et meget smalt satsbånd for normalsatsen.
In this opinion the Committee agreed expressly with the idea of setting up a coordinated system of multilateral surveillance of budgetary discipline in each of the Member States participating in EMU.
Det slår til lyd for, at der gøres fremskridt i den retning under behørig hensyntagen til de enkelte medlemsstaters særlige situation.
It pointed out in this connection that currencies not participating in EMU from the start may not be regulated according to purely 'national' criteria but that, in accordance with the Treaty, Member States had to treat their monetary policy as a matter of common interest.
ØSU overser ikke, at medlemsstaternes regeringer, når der indføres et fælles momssystem, der harmonerer med hensynet til det indre marked, vil miste den afgørende kontrol med deres momssatser, som er en væsentlig parameter i deres finanspolitik.
Under the conditions produced by a single currency an imbalance could develop between monetary and real economic growth, since the pursuit of monetary goals would be supported by a strong European central bank.
Da princippet om at overføre kompetencen for den monetære politik til EU-planet allerede har vundet accept i relation til den fælles mønt, kan man imidlertid efter ØSU's mening se udstrækningen af dette princip til også at omfatte finanspolitikken som en logisk udvikling.
It was therefore desirable to ensure improved coordination of macroeconomic policies (growth, employment, stability, taxation, etc.) at European level.
Her tilslutter ØSU sig grundtanken om, at der skabes et struktureret system for »multilateral overvågning« af budget disciplinen i den enkelte medlemsstat, der deltager i ØMU'en.
With regard to the equity markets, the Committee advocated the introduction of non-par-value shares.
ØSU hilser også den forudsatte fremgangsmåde med en udvidet konvergens og en ny valutakursmekanisme i Den Monetære Unions tredje fase velkommen og bifalder den tilstræbte monetære solidaritet mellem de lande, der deltager i Den Monetære Union fra starten, og de lande, der ikke er med i første omgang.
It was opposed to reserve require ments, which, in its view, would compromise the introduction of a unified euro capital market.
I sin udtalelse om »Praktiske aspekter af indførelsen af euroen« ser ØSU på de aspekter af forberedelsen af Den Monetære Union, der kræver snarlige beslutninger eller initiativer, herunder specielt praktiske spørgsmål, som berører brugerne af den nye fælles mønt.
In its opinion on the practical aspects of the introduction of the euro, the Committee examines those aspects which still call for decisions or initiatives in the run-up to EMU, and in particular those practical aspects of concern to currency users.
REGIONALPOLITIK OG FYSISK PLANLÆGNING
REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING POLICY
Den 19. marts 1997 vedtog ØSU en udtalelse om »Kommissionens årsrapport om Samhørighedsfonden 1995«.
On 19 March, first of all, the ESC adopted an opinion on the Annual Report of the Cohesion Fund 1995, an important year because it was the first year in which the machinery set up by the Cohesion Fund was fully applied.
1995 var et vigtigt år, da det var det første, hvor samtlige mekanismer samhørighedsfondsforordningen blev anvendt.
While the ESC regretted the Commission's failure to submit the Report within the established deadline and the omission, in certain cases, of adequate, comparable data enabling it to analyse as effectively as possible the appropriateness of the projects presented, it was pleased that significant improvements, reflected in the Report, had resulted, particularly in terms of management and operation, and project evaluation and monitoring, all of which fitted in with the recommendations contained in the previous ESC opinion.
ØSU beklager, at Kommissionen har fremlagt rapporten så sent, samt det faktum, at den i visse tilfælde ikke giver tilstrækkeligt med sammenlignelige oplysninger til at foretage den bedst mulige analyse af de præsenterede projekters relevans.
The presentation of the 1996 Annual Report in June gave the ESC a second opportunity to comment on the Cohesion Fund's use and to call in particular for better regional distribution of resources, greater diversification and better balance in distribution of allocations between different modes of transport, giving priority to those which are most environment-friendly, greater focus on protection and conservation of natural resources and landscapes of particular ecological value, and greater support for the completion of environmental and transport infrastructures in the most remote regions.
Til gengæld glæder ØSU sig over de klare forbedringer angående forvaltning, evaluering og opfølgning af projekterne. De ligger på linje med de anbefalinger, ØSU formulerede i sin udtalelse om samme emne forrige år.
The ESC also had the opportunity, in its opinion of 10 December, to declare its support for the continuation of the Cohesion Fund beyond 1999 and to stress the need to increase the complementarity and consistency between the structural policies associated with the various funds in order to bring them closer into line with each other and increase their combined effect, thus ensuring more harmonious economic and social development.
Med Kominissionens fremlæggelse af årsrapporten om Samhørighedsfonden 1996 i juni 1997 fik ØSU for anden gang lejlighed til at udtale sig om
But 1997 was, above all, marked by the ESC's opinion of 23 April on the First Cohesion Report, a three-yearly report which, for the first time,
I sin udtalelse af 10. december 1997 om »Kommissionens årsrapport om Samhørighedsfonden 1996« udtrykte ØSU sin støtte til en videreførelse af Samhørighedsfonden efter 1999.
The consultation of the ESC on these three reports, particularly the last one, provided an opportunity to make recommendations and proposals for revising the Structural Fund regulations for the next planning period, on which the ESC is to be consulted in 1998.
ØSU erklærede endvidere, at det er nødvendigt at styrke komplementariteten og sammenhængen mellem de strukturpolitikker, der er knyttet til de forskellige fonde, således at konvergens og additionalitet øges, hvilket vil sikre en mere harmonisk økonomisk og social udvikling.
The recommendations and conclusions concern in particular the concentration and allocation of aid, the simplification and rationalisation of planning procedures, checking application of the additionality principle, project rationalisation, follow-up, monitor ing and evaluation, and involvement of economic and social interest groups in defining priorities and implementing and following through the projects financed.
En særlig vigtig udtalelse i 1997 havde »Kommissionens første rapport om økonomisk og social samhørighed« som emne og blev afgivet den 23. april. Kommissionen udsender en rapport om dette emne hvert tredje år.
Regarding this last point, and as a continuation of its 1994 opinion on the involvement of economic and social partners in the implementation and development of the Structural Funds, the ESC took a particular interest this year in the partners' role and degree of involvement in defining, implement ing and following through cross-border projects.
Høringen af ØSU om disse tre rapporter, især den sidste, var en god lejlighed for ØSU til at fremlægge en række anbefalinger og forslag med henblik på den kommende revision af strukturfondsforordningerne for den næste programperiode, som ØSU vil blive hørt om i 1998.
While the Structural Funds and the Cohesion Fund are the main tools for strengthening economic and social cohesion in the EU, other EU policies also have to contribute to achieving this aim, in line with the provisions of the Treaty.
Anbefalingerne og konklusionerne drejede sig hovedsageligt om koncentration af støttetildelingen, forenkling og rationalisering af planlægningsprocedurerne, kontrol af additionalitetsprincippets overholdelse, rationalisering, opfølgning, kontrol og evaluering af projekterne, men også om inddragelse af arbejdsmarkedets parter og økonomiske interesseorganisationer i fastlæggelsen af prioriteterne og iværksættelsen og opfølgningen af de finansierede projekter. ter.
This is particularly the case of the information society, which was the subject of a Commission communication entitled 'Cohesion and the information society', on which the ESC produced an opinion on 1 October.
I denne forbindelse og i forlængelse af sin udtalelse fra 1994 om »Inddragelse af arbejdsmarkedets parter i regionalpolitikken« har ØSU i 1997 set nærmere på deres rolle og inddragelse i fastlæggelsen, gennemførelsen og opfølgningen af grænseoverskridende projekter.
The communication was welcomed by the ESC since it identified a number of measures to be taken in addition to those seeking to develop the information society for the benefit of the EU's least-developed, outlying or
Strukturfondene og Samhørighedsfonden er de mest målrettede instrumenter til styrkelse af den økonomiske og sociale samhørighed inden for EU, men de øvrige EU-politikker bør også, i overensstemmelse med traktatens bestemmelser, bidrage til at nå dette mål, bl.a. i forbindelse med informationssamfundet.
The EU Commission president Mr Santer, asked the ESC to assist in the implementation of territorial and local employment pacts by keeping a watching brief on the process and passing on information to the appropriate levels, in particular the national organisations representing economic and social interest groups.
ØSU udtalte sig i oktober 1997 om Kommissionens meddelelse om »Samhørighed og informationssamfundet«.
The section subsequently drew up an information report on territorial employment pacts which it was decided to circulate to the other institutions on 30 October.
ØSU hilste denne meddelelse velkommen, for så vidt som den peger på en række tiltag, der skal supplere dem, som allerede er iværksat for at udvikle informationssamfundet, så det også bliver til gavn for EU's mindst udviklede regioner i periferien og/eller i landdistrikterne.
This information report was merely an initial response to the Commission president's request aimed at promoting the pacts by providing information on the methodology (proposed by the Commission) for framing the pacts and on the implementing and operating procedures.
ØSU fremsætter desuden en række bemærkninger og anbefalinger, som skal sikre, at disse tiltag tilpasses de teknologiske, økonomiske og sociale behov i de forskellige berørte regioner.
The report should also be regarded as constituting part of the ESC's contribution to the preparation of the interinstitutional forum on the territorial pacts scheduled to be held in the spring of 1998, and in which the Commission wants the ESC to be closely involved.
Som svar på appellen fra Kommissionens formand, Jacques Santer, om at støtte dette initiativ ved at følge gennemførelsen af beskæftigelsespagterne på det relevante niveau, herunder i arbejdsmarkedsparternes organisationer på landsplan, har ØSU udarbejdet en informationsrapport om »Regionale og lokale beskæftigelsespagter«.
This strategy must coordinate the national, regional and local levels, with a view to (i) encouraging and training new businessmen and women, especially young people; (ii) making the best possible use of financial resources; (iii) creating new products and services, both for business and for individuals; and (iv) generating real, additional lasting jobs.
Det er tanken med rapporten, som kun er det første svar på formandens appel, at være med til at fremme udbredelsen af pagterne ved at give oplysninger om, hvordan de udarbejdes, gennemføres og bringes til at fungere.
Both the information report and the debate at the plenary session stressed the importance of the pacts because they helped decentralisation, restored to regional and local bodies a capital role in job creation and aimed to involve all the actors concerned.
Informationsrapporten skal også ses som et af ØSU's bidrag til det institutionelle forum om beskæftigelsespagterne, som afholdes i foråret 1998. Kommissionen ønsker et snævert samarbejde med ØSU om dette forum.
The report also took the view that territorial employment pacts: (i) would provide a valuable opportunity to coordinate and intermesh the various public and private forms of Community, national, regional and local support, focusing them on a coherent strategy for job creation; (ii) would have to represent a quantum jump in project planning and implementation, in effective use of resources, and results as measured by the number of new jobs; and (iii) would have to be genuinely and realistically geared to the
Såvel informationsrapporten som den debat, den gav anledning til på plenarforsamlingen, fremhæver beskæftigelsespagternes betydning, dels fordi de indgår i et decentraliseringsperspektiv, dels fordi de igen giver det regionale og lokale niveau en nøglerolle forbindelse med jobskabelse.
creation of new jobs, in line with the resources available and in the light of the specific circumstances of the area concerned.
Som led i overvejelserne og bestræbelserne på at integrere de økonomiske, sociale, kulturelle og økologiske aspekter af en bæredygtig, miljøvenlig udvikling har ØSU fundet det hensigtsmæssigt at uddybe spørgsmålet om byggeri og boliger. Hensigten er at gøre det klart for alle involverede parter, at det er nødvendigt at give bypolitikken en ny retning, som gør »bæredygtighed på bygge- og boligområdet« til en uløselig bestanddel af moderne by- og landsplanlægning.
As part of its task of promoting integration of the three 'pillars' of lasting and environmentally sound development, i.e. the economic, social and ecological dimensions, the ESC felt it should look more closely at the area of building and housing, so as to make all the parties concerned aware of the need to generate a new impetus to urban policy and make the concept of 'sustainable building and housing' an integral part of modern town and spatial management.
I sin udtalelse af 1. oktober 1997 om »Bæredygtig udvikling på bygge- og boligområdet i Europa« opfordrer ØSU til, at der vedtages en række foranstaltninger, som bidrager til opfyldelsen af dette mål. Foranstaltningerne strækker sig fra revision af lovgivningen og ændring af støtte- og forskningstyngdepunkterne til igangsættelse af en grundig samfundsdebat om elementerne og målsætningerne for denne bæredygtighed.
In its opinion of 1 October on this subject the ESC sought to encourage the adoption of a series of measures that would help achieve this aim, ranging from a reworking of legal regulations in the Member States and a change of emphasis in promotion and research to the initiation of a comprehensive social debate on the elements and objectives of sustainable building and housing.
Med vedtagelsen af en initiativudtalelse den 30. oktober 1997 om »Beretning fra Kommissionen om Fællesskabets foranstaltninger med indvirkning på turisme (1995/1996)« ønskede ØSU først og fremmest at give sit bidrag til den konference om »Turisme og beskæftigelse«, som det luxembourgske formandskab arrangerede den 4.-5. november 1997 i samarbejde med Kommissionen.
On 30 October the ESC adopted an own-initiative opinion on the report from the Commission on Community measures affecting tourism (1995-96), in which it sought above all to make a contribution to the work of the conference on tourism and employment due to be organised by the Luxembourg Presidency and the European Commission on 4 and 5 November.
Blandt de mere traditionelle sektorer kan nævnes tekniske standarder og forskrifter, toldunionen, konkurrencepolitik, intellektuel ejendomsret, bank- og forsikringsvirksomhed, SMV og håndværkssektoren, offentlige indkøb, handel, industriens konkurrenceevne og selskabsret. skabsret.
More conventional sectors included technical standards aid regulations, the customs union, competition policy, intellectual property, banking and insurance, SMEs and the craft industry, public procurement, trade, industrial competitiveness and company law.
Sektionen har via nogle af sine medlemmer deltaget i 20 konferencer om aktuelle emner, hvor den har haft lejlighed til at fremlægge ØSU's holdning.
These conferences — some at European or even world level — covered questions such as the single market, defence-related industries, the global information society, the maritime, textiles, chemicals and other industries, Community transit, patents, the craft sector, competition and so on.
Disse konferencer, hvoraf nogle har været på europæisk og endog internationalt plan, har blandt andet omhandlet det indre marked, forsvarsindustrien, det globale informationssamfund, de maritime erhverv, tekstil- og beklædningsindustrien, den kemiske industri m.m., forsendelse i Europa, patenter, håndværkssektoren, konkurrence osv.
3.(a) In the information society sphere, the section issued opinions on broad issues such as the Commission's proposed action plan, or documents analysing the impact of this new factor (for example, living and working in the information society), and on more specific aspects. The latter included electronic commerce, satellite communications and standardisation.
3a) Hvad angår informationssamfundet, har sektionen udtalt sig dels om generelle emner såsom Kommissionens handlingsplaner og analyser af, hvad den nye situation indebærer (f.eks. »Liv og arbejde i informationssamfundet«), dels om mere specifikke emner, hvoraf kan nævnes elektronisk handel, satellitkommunikation og standardisering samt helt specielle aspekter såsom beskyttelse af mindreårige og den menneskelige værdighed i forbindelse med de nye audiovisuelle tjenester samt ulovligt og skadeligt indhold på Internettet.
This permanent study group organised outside hearings on its own initiative, enabling it to study, in the field, the problems encountered by SMEs in cross-border commercial relations, the potential conflicts or cooperation between environmental legislation and the single market, and the situation of consumers in the single insurance market. The SMO also drew up opinions on the SLIM project (simpler legislation for the internal market), Community transit arrangements (from the point of view of combating tax fraud), and the Commission's action plans for the single market.
3b) Med hensyn til gennemførelsen af det indre marked er der udarbejdet udtalelser om offentlige indkøb, lovpligtige revisorer (efter en ekstern høring i London) og harmonisering af reglerne om pensionsfonde.
3.(c) During the course of the year, technical standards and regulations, essential to the proper working of the single market, accounted for subjects such as vehicles, equipment, machinery, products, harmful emissions and fuel quality, as well as the adjustment of directives to the new requirements of the information society.
Derudover har Observationscentret for Det Indre Marked, som er nedsat i Industrisektionens regi, taget en række spørgsmål op til nærmere undersøgelse.
In connection with the customs union, the customs code and the Customs 2000 programme had to be brought into line with the information society.
