Mellem 1993 og 1997 medvirkede handlingsplanen til finansiering af 16.856 timer med nye programmer i 16/9-format, hvoraf 50% var programmer, der kan arkiveres og bruges flere gange (heriblandt 2.223 timer med fiktion, 4.001 timer med dokumentarprogrammer og 2.515 timer med kulturbegivenheder), mens direkte transmissioner tegnede sig for 29% (5.043 timer fordelt mellem konkurrencer, talk-shows o.l.), sportsudsendelser for 20% (3.445 timer) og tegnefilm for kun 1% (130 timer).
Between 1993 and 1997, the Action Plan cofinanced the production of 16,856 hours of new 16:9 programmes, 50% of which can be stored and repeatedly reused (including 2,223 hours of fiction, 4,001 of documentaries and 2,515 of cultural events), another 29% of which were live studio broadcasts (5,043 hours shared between games and live chat shows, etc.), and the remaining 20% of which were sports events (3,445 hours), just 1% (130 hours) were cartoons.
2.7 Tv-selskabernes og producenternes valg var som følger: 70% af de programmer, der blev produceret af tv-selskaberne, var programmer med kort levetid - dvs. studietransmissioner og sport. De resterende 30% fordelte sig på kultur-, dokumentär- og fiktionsprogrammer.
2.7 Broadcasters' and producers' preferences could be summarized as follows: 70% of the programmes produced by broadcasters were short-life programmes - live studio shows or sports programmes - while the remaining 30% can be broken down into cultural programmes, documentaries and fiction.
85% af de programmer, der blev produceret af uafhængige producenter, var dokumentär- og fiktionsprogrammer, dvs. katalogværker.
2.8 By far the most common format for analogue 16:9 services was 625-line video with 11,780 hours, 80% of which were produced by broadcasters, while the high-definition 1,250-line video accounted for only 2,779 hours of production (falling by almost half since 1993), and given over principally to high-profile sports events (Olympic Games or world championships), cultural events and documentaries with a creative content.
Resten af den uafhængige produktion var transmission af kulturbegivenheder.
These productions garner much prestige on account of the aesthetic quality of high definition television (HDTV) coupled with the 16:9 format.
2.8 Det mest udbredte format inden for de analoge 16/9-tjenester er "video 625", som tegner sig for 11.780 timer, hvoraf 80% er produceret af tv-selskaber.
2.9 Remastering entails the transfer, onto a master compatible with 16:9 broadcasting, of programmes originally produced on another master (nearly always cinema film).
Højopløsningsformatet (HDTV), "video 1250", er anvendt til produktion af 2.779 timer (en tilbagegang på næsten 50% siden 1993), især sportstransmissioner på højt niveau (De Olympiske Lege og verdensmesterskaber), kulturbegivenheder, dokumentarprogrammer samt prestigeprogrammer, der vinder meget ved den høje æstetiske kvalitet af HDTV kombineret med 16/9-formatet.
Extensive use was made of this process, particularly in the launch phase of 16:9 broadcasting (8,565 programme hours). This is because it enabled programming schedules to be filled immediately much more cheaply than with new productions, and could be done very rapidly using a good quality original.
2.10 I takt med den støtte vækst i markedet for 16/9-tjenester bliver det europæiske programkatalog stadig mere omfattende. Udbredelsen af disse programmer vil efterhånden gøre udbuddet større og mindske behovet for konvertering af programmer.
2.10 With the constant growth of the 16:9 market, the European catalogue for the new format offers a growing volume of programmes, and distribution will, in time, enable supply to be expanded while reducing demand for programme conversion.
Anvendelsen af konvertering er således faldet fra 12% ved indkaldelse 93/1 til 4% ved indkaldelse 97/1, og efterspørgslen efter konvertering vil uundgåeligt falde til et minimalt niveau.
Conversions fell from 12% of hours under Call 93/1 to 4% under Call 97/1; demand for conversion is consequently set to fall to negligible levels.
Meddelelsen og den fremtidige strategi
The Communication and future approaches
3.1 Det var målet med handlingsplanen at tilskynde til 16/9-apparaternes indtrængen på markedet. Antallet af installerede tv-apparater i dette format nåede i 1997 op på omkring 2 mio., og Kommissionen tror derfor på 16/9-formatets kommercielle fremtid.
3.1 The aim of the Action Plan was to boost the market penetration of 16:9 sets, and with an installed base of some two million sets forecast for 1997, the Commission is convinced that the format has a commercial future.
I betragtning af de store fremskridt for dette marked har Kommissionen ingen planer om at følge handlingsplanen op.
It considers that the market has achieved major progress, and has therefore not planned a sequel to the Action Plan.
I dag, hvor der er opbygget en bred basis af panoramaskærme, har bredformatet udviklet sig fra en interessant teknisk mulighed til en markedsfaktor ikke kun i Europa, men også i Japan og USA.
Now that widescreen exists in the home, it is no longer just an interesting technical possibility: it is part of the market not only in Europe, but also in Japan and the United States.
3.2 Den europæiske audiovisuelle industri vil i de kommende år stå over for en voksende international konkurrence inden for produktion af såvel teknisk udstyr som programmer i 16/9-format.
3.2 The European audiovisual industry will, over the next few years, be faced with increasing world competition in producing both the technical hardware and 16:9 programmes.
3.3 Derudover ligger der en konstant udfordring i den teknologiske innovation, som er den eneste måde, hvorpå den europæiske audiovisuelle sektor kan bevare sin konkurrenceevne på verdensmarkedet.
3.3 Technological innovation will also pose a permanent challenge as it represents the only way of keeping the European industry in this sector competitive on world markets.
Et andet vigtigt aspekt er den igangværende digitale revolution, som vil kunne forbedre billedkvaliteten af tv-programproduktionen i det nye format.
The on going digital revolution is an aspect of considerable importance: it is set to make a vital contribution to enhanced picture quality for television production in the new format.
3.4 I de kommende år er det derfor meget vigtigt, at de europæiske lande etablerer et partnerskab for at optimere og forene indsatsen inden for forskning og produktion, således at den europæiske produktion foretrækkes frem for tilsvarende produkter fra USA og Japan.
3.4 Consequently, it is essential that the European states strive to develop a system of partnership in the coming years, with the aim of optimizing and combining research and production work. This would give Europe a competitive edge over similar US and Japanese productions.
3.5 Kommissionen mener, at handlingsplanen har bidraget effektivt til introduktionen af det nye format og forberedt brugere, tv-selskaber og producenter på lanceringen af digitale 16/9-tjenester.
3.5 The Commission argues that the Action Plan was effective in helping to introduce the new format and prepare users, broadcasters and producers for the launch of digital 16:9 services.
3.6 Markedsføringen af digitale 16/9-apparater resulterede i en kraftig stigning i salget i 1998.
3.6 Marketing of digital 16:9 screen sets boosted sales significantly during 1998.
I dag kan Storbritannien notere en betydelig stigning i salget, som dog overgås af Holland og
3.7 Pay-TV subscribers are in general the principal purchasers of 16:9 sets.
I Storbritannien har de største selskaber, inkl. BBC, planer om en hurtig overgang til 16/9.
It is likely that the choices made across the Atlantic will also have an impact in Europe.
Europa må have effektive instrumenter til sin rådighed til støtte for såvel teknologisk forskning som tv-programproduktion i 16/9-format.
It must be equipped with effective technological research and 16:9 programme production tools.
3.10 Det skal bemærkes, at de største europæiske producenter af tv-apparater (Thompson og Philips) opererer på det amerikanske marked.
3.10 It should be noted that the main European TV manufacturers (Thomson and Philips) are also active in the United States.
Ifølge Kommissionen går den generelle markedstendens i USA i retning af små HDTV-skærme, men der vil være et stadig større niche-marked for store skærme af hjemmebiograf-typen.
According to the European Commission, the US will focus more on small HDTV screens for the mass market, while there will be a growing niche market for big screens ("home-theatre").
4.1 Regionsudvalget udtrykker tilfredshed med Kommissionens fremragende rapport, som bredt og udtømmende redegør for resultaterne vedrørende udbredelsen af 16/9-transmissioner.
4.1 The Committee congratulates the Commission on its outstanding report, which offers a broad and comprehensive picture of the results achieved in 16:9 broadcasting.
Rapporten er fuld af ideer og detaljerede prognoser over udviklingen på tv-området og inden for den audiovisuelle industri i de kommende år.
It is full of ideas, and puts forward a detailed picture of the future of television broadcasting and the ancillary industry over the next few years.
4.2 Regionsudvalget er enigt med Kommissionen i, at 16/9-formatet nu har opnået en passende udbredelse på det europæiske marked, også hvad angår antallet af tv-apparater.
4.2 The Committee agrees with the Commission that adequate penetration of the European 16:9 format market has been achieved, partly reflected in the number of sets: sales of widescreen sets rose from 220,000 in 1995 to 800,000 in 1997, with sales expected to rise to 3,500,000 in 2000.
Salget af 16/9-apparater er steget fra 220.000 i 1995 til 800.000 i 1997 og ventes at stige til 3.500.000 i år 2000.
4.4 The Committee is pleased to note that in those European countries where broadcasters have encouraged the introduction of widescreen sets ready for digital services, the Action Plan has guaranteed the market availability of digital services in this format.
4.3 Regionsudvalget mener ligesom Kommissionen, at den europæiske audiovisuelle sektor må imødegå den internationale konkurrence med strategier og tiltag, som kan fremme en kontinuerlig teknologisk innovation og bringe sektoren op på det udviklingsstade, der er nødvendigt for at klare sig i denne konkurrence.
4.5 The Committee notes the speed with which 16:9 broadcasting is spreading around the world, especially in Japan - where 50% of sets are in the 16:9 format - and the United States, where a "courageous" initiative has been launched, proposing its own, fully digital HDTV system which can be broadcast on existing channels via signal compression, but without the need for satellite distribution, which is significantly more expensive and complicated to organize.
4.4 Regionsudvalget noterer sig med glæde, at der i de europæiske lande, hvor tv-selskaberne har fremmet udbredelsen af 16/9-apparater, som kan modtage digitale transmissioner, takket være handlingsplanen er digitale tjenester i dette format på markedet.
4.6 Now that there is an installed base of widescreen sets in Europe, whose owners were initially able to take advantage of the wave of digital programmes launched by pay broadcasters via cable and satellite, the Committee believes that the second phase should focus on free terrestrial broadcasts.
Den omstændighed, at det generelt er betalingstv-abonnenter, som køber 16/9-apparater, viser, at der er opnået en næsten perfekt overlapning mellem de to markedssegmenter.
The COR feels that the introduction of digital terrestrial broadcasting techniques (DAB, DVB-T) requires coordinated transitional arrangements, taking particular account of consumer protection considerations.
Udbredelsen af det nye format vil derfor gå hånd i hånd med indførelsen af digitalt tv.
Appropriate strategies must therefore be developed in the Member States, in conjunction with regional and local authorities and involving broadcasters, associations and industry, to replace analogue broadcasting by digital.
4.5 Regionsudvalget konstaterer, at 16/9-transmissioner er på hastig fremmarch i hele verden, især i Japan, hvor 16/9-apparaterne tegner sig for 50% af markedet, og i USA, som modigt har taget initiativ til udformning af sit eget fuldt ud digitale HDTV-system, der kan transmitteres over de eksisterende kanaler ved hjælp af komprimerede signaler uden brug af satellit-transmission, som helt klart er dyrere og mere kompliceret at organisere.
Based on that, the Committee of the Regions would like to see all Member States address this issue and give considered backing to a joint European approach.
4.6 Regionsudvalget mener, at når der nu er opbygget en bred basis af bredformatapparater, hvis brugere i den første fase har nydt godt af den digitale bølge, som betalingstv-selskaberne lancerede via kabel og satellit, bør den næste fase bestå i gratis jordbaserede transmissioner. Regionsudvalget mener, at indførelsen af digital terrestrisk radiospredningsteknik (DAB, DVB-T) forudsætter afpassede overgangsscenarier, der især tager hensyn til forbrugerbeskyttelsen.
4.7 In the Committee's view, given that the electronics market has now reached saturation point (with a very high people/TV set ratio) and prices are tending to stabilize, growth can only come from technical innovation: competitiveness can be based exclusively on offering enhanced services for the same price.
Desuden må der udvikles strategier til afløsning af den hidtidige analoge radiospredning med digital radiospredning i medlemslandene i samarbejde med de regionale og lokale politiske myndigheder og under inddragelse af radiospredningsselskaberne, organisationerne og virksomhederne.
It is therefore important to note that if HDTV advances are to trigger effective, large-scale change, they must involve the entire image production chain and commit themselves to a fully digital image, as US and Japanese standards have done.
Regionsudvalget så gerne, at alle medlemsstaterne gik ind i sagen på dette grundlag og deltog i overvejelser om en fælles europæisk strategi.
4.8 The Committee is convinced that if Europe hopes to obtain similar results, it must foster 16:9 services, especially on the less mature markets.
4.7 Da det elektroniske marked nu er mættet (næsten enhver husholdning har et fjernsyn) og prisniveauet efterhånden har stabiliseret sig, må der efter Regionsudvalgets mening fremover satses på tekniske innovationer.
4.9 The Committee hopes that the Commission will support production and contribute in various ways to developing European 16:9 audiovisual catalogues for documentaries, cultural events or minority sports, as works of this kind can be used over long periods of time, enabling millions of citizens to become familiar with the local scene (regions and municipalities), ranging from customs and traditions, or history and culture, to the local economy and tourism.
Konkurrenceevnen kan kun baseres på tjenester af højere kvalitet.
4.9.1 In an effort to make local government information more accessible to public, telephone call centres have been developed in recent years.
Derfor bør man holde sig for øje, at hvis fremskridt inden for HDTV skal føre til reelle ændringer over en bred front, må de omfatte hele produktionskæden og sigte mod en rent digital billedgengivelse, således som det er tilfældet med de amerikanske og japanske standarder.
However, due to the recorded- question/push-choice process it is often difficult or time-consuming to retrieve the desired information.
4.8 Efter Regionsudvalgets mening må udbredelsen af 16/9-tjenester fremmes, især på de mindst udviklede europæiske markeder, hvis der skal opnås lignende resultater i Europa.
With the advent of digital and interactive television, this is an appropriate opportunity to call on the Commission to assist the production of local programme content and interactive services.
4.9 Regionsudvalget håber, at Kommissionen vil støtte produktionen og bidrage til opbygningen af europæiske audiovisuelle 16/9-kataloger med dokumentär- og kulturprogrammer eller mindre sportsbegivenheder, som kan bruges i lang tid og give millioner af borgere indblik i forskellige lokale forhold (regioner og kommuner) lige fra skikke og traditioner over historie og kultur til økonomi og turisme.
4.10 Following the final report on the level of penetration of 16:9 programming to be published by the end of the year, the Committee would urge the Commission to continue supporting and encouraging the introduction of new technologies into the audiovisual sector, as well as the establishment of new broadcasters - especially at regional and local level - in view of the wealth of opportunities forecast for Europe in this area.
4.9 bis Man har de senere år etableret centre med automatiseret telefonservice for at lette borgernes adgang til informationer fra de lokale myndigheder.
4.11 Since a range of widescreen sets are now on the market, the Committee would also urge broadcasters and producers to work closely together in a genuine partnership on the new format, working synergically to generate a viable supply of programmes, thereby enabling 16:9 services to be made generally available throughout Europe.
Men det er ofte vanskeligt og tidsrøvende at skaffe informationer ved hjælp af tryk-knap-proceduren.
4.12 The Committee hopes that the European audiovisual industry will be able both to modernize and expand in the face of international competition.
Indførelsen af digitalt og interaktivt tv er en passende lejlighed til at opfordre Kommissionen til at støtte produktionen af lokale programmer og interaktive tjenester.
If it is to succeed it must pass the threshold beyond which an autonomous impetus resulting in generalised 16:9 services in Europe can be generated.
4.10 Regionsudvalget håber, at Kommissionen - også efter offentliggørelsen af den endelige rapport om udbredelsen af programproduktionen i 16/9-format ved udgangen af 1999 - på baggrund af de lovende fremtidsperspektiver på dette felt fortsat vil tilskynde til indførelse af den ny teknologi i den audiovisuelle sektor og til oprettelse af nye tv-selskaber, især regionale og lokale.
4.13 The Committee is convinced that the trickiest obstacle to greater 16:9 penetration is predominantly economic: the technology needed is very expensive, and the associated applied research demands funds on a scale that even the biggest private operators on the market do not have readily available.
Et forbillede for en sådan indsats er den strategi, der er anvendt i USA, hvor alle radio- og tv-selskaber effektivt er blevet tilskyndet til hurtigt at tilpasse sig nye standarder for digitale transmissioner.
Under these circumstances, it is imperative that every effort be made to adjust to the future in a coordinated manner, in order to achieve the European dimension that is essential if the European audiovisual industry is to hold its own on the world market.
4.11 Da der nu er en bred vifte af bredformatapparater på markedet, opfordrer Regionsudvalget tv-selskaber og producenter til at arbejde tæt sammen som ægte partnere på bredformat-området og gensidigt supplere fortrin og mangler for at skabe et levedygtigt udbud af programmer, således at 16/9-tjenesterne udbredes til hele Europa.
4.14 The Committee considers that the Commission should assist the development of existing efforts by arranging further funding calls as a sequel to the Action Plan - and not only in the area of advanced television services, but also in the radio sector, where private financial resources are very limited.
4.12 Regionsudvalget håber, at den europæiske audiovisuelle sektor, stillet over for den internationale konkurrence, vil være i stand til på én gang at modernisere sig og ekspandere. Dette forudsætter, at den audiovisuelle industri overskrider en tærskel, som kan give markedet en selvstændig dynamik og gøre 16/9-tjenesterne almindeligt udbredt på europæisk plan.
4.15 The Committee agrees with broadcasters in considering the 16:9 format to be a key factor in identifying digital broadcasting as the "television of the future", since - as the report shows -digitalisation is now an increasingly widespread fact.

HAVING REGARD TO the draft report of the European Parliament on the Commission Communication on A northern dimension for the policies of the Union; adopted the following opinion at its 30th plenary session of 15 and 16 September 1999 (meeting of 15 September).
Regionsudvalget konstaterer med tilfredshed, at Kommissionen i overensstemmelse med de forslag, som Regionsudvalget vedtog på sin plenarsamling den 12. juni 1996, er begyndt at træffe foranstaltninger med henblik på at fastlægge en politik for EU's nordlige dimension.
The Committee of the Regions is pleased to note that in accordance with the proposals adopted by the Committee at its plenary session on 12 June 1996, the Commission has taken steps to define a European Union action programme on the northern dimension.
Den finske regerings initiativ af 12. december 1998 og Rådets beslutning i tilknytning hertil har lagt et solidt grundlag for Regionsudvalgets forslag om, at der fastlægges en definition af EU's nordlige dimension, og at den nordlige dimension inddrages i EU's politikker.
The Finnish government's initiative of 12 December 1998 and the European Council decision relating to it provided a good basis for the proposal by the Committee of the Regions to draw up a definition of the EU's northern dimension and for the northern dimension to be taken into account in the EU's policies.
Indledning: Udviklingen af en nordlig dimension
Introduction: acquiring a northern dimension
1.1 Med Finlands og Sveriges tiltrædelse fik EU en nordlig dimension.
1.1 Finnish and Swedish accession to the European Union meant that the EU acquired a new northern dimension.
Regionen afviger klimamæssigt, beliggenhedsmæssigt, økonomisk-geografisk og geopolitisk betydeligt fra EU's øvrige regioner.
The region is significantly different in terms of climate, location, economic geography and geopolitics from other EU regions.
