EP vedtog en betænkning af den belgiske liberale Dirk STERCKX om olietankeren "Prestiges" forlis ud for Galiciens kyst i november 2002. og om hvilken lektie vi kan lære af denne miljøkatastrofe.
Speaking on behalf of the EUL/NGL group, Armando COSSUTTA (I) stated that he supported President PRODI, "who values the texts but also sees its flaws". He noted the inadequacies in the social field as well as the constitutional areas.
1 Sterckxbetænkningen lægger EP op til en skærpelse af sikkerheden til søs.
For example, the suppression of a rotating Council could create an institutional imbalance.
"Prestige"-katastrofen har vist. at bestemmelserne for nødstedte skibe fortsat er utilstrækkelige, og man op fordrer medlemslandene til - i samarbejde med det Europæiske Agentur for Søfartssikkerhed - at sikre hurtig og fuld overensstemmelse mellem de nationale katastrofe beredskaber og udpegning af nødhavne/tilflugtshavne.
Furthermore, he stressed the need of a single common foreign and security policy as well as an independent EU military force.
• • katastrofeberedskab og veludstyrede havne.
Speaking on behalf of the UEN group, José RIBEIRO E CASTRO (Ρ) stated that the Convention went "beyond its mandate".
Det er nødvendigt med et uafltængigi organ til at undersøge miljoforureningsulykker til søs.
For the EDD,Jens-Peter BONDE (DK) stressed the need for an EU-wide referendum "if the EU is to have the courage to ask the people what they want".
I dag er de alt for ofte part i sagen.
In his view, power had been taken away from the national Parliaments and increased for bureaucrats and lobbyists.
Dirk Sterckx fastslog, at søfartens frihed ikke er absolut, og at det er nødvendigt med mere kontrol med skibe under bekvemmelighedsflag, og mere kontrol med besætningerne.
Jonathan EVANS (Wales), leader of the British Conservatives, stated that over recent years the Union had been "in a permanent state of IGC, an inevitable one-way process of integration, the peoples of Europe going in the other way".
Udveksling af "bedstepraksis" EP anmoder endvidere EU-Kommisssionen om, at lade det Europæiske Agentur for Søfartssikkerhed udarbejde en oversigt over for skellige kommandoveje og kompetente myndigheder i forbindelse med katastrofer på havet og fremsætte anbefalinger til
He called for a return to the basics and the Laeken declaration which called for clearer definitions of Union competencies, increased transparency and democracy as well as the need to bring the EU institutions closer to the citizens of Europe. In his opinion, the draft
• udveksling af "bedste praksis ", • fremme af samarbejdet mellem medlems landene og • indførelse af EU-retningslinier eller mindstekrav på dette område.
Finally, he called for a referendum on the subject in the UK. As he put it "if a referendum is good enough for the peoples of Spain and Ireland, then it should be good enough for the British people".
Gennemfør EU-lovgivningen! Den spanske EU-kommissær Loyola DE PALACIO fandt, at det var en fremragende betænkning.
Speaking for the Independent Members, Emma BONINO (I) regretted that the draft Constitution did not develop the EU's political role on the world stage.
Hun mindede om Erika I- og Erika li-pakkerne og mente, at hvis de var gennemført i praksis, så var "Prestige"-kata-strofen slet ikke forekommet.
Rather than highlighting the EU's responsibilities, the draft reflects an "introverted Europe, turned towards prosperity".
Hun oplyste, at Kommissionen kører overtrædelsesprocedurer mod 10 forskellige EU-lande. som ikke har indført EU-lovgivningen i deres nationale lovgivning.
She went on to stress that Europe could be a "champion" of fairer economic development.
De Palacio mente, at den manglende tilflugtshavn og skibets dårlige stand var 2 væsentlige årsager til ulykken, som hun dog ikke ville betegne som en egentlig katastrofe.
However, "people in other parts of the world M'ill suffer more because we have decided to remain an economic power", she concluded.
Østersøen, Storebælt og Øresund Europa-Parlamentet opfordrer til, at der for økologisk følsomme og navigatorisk vanskelige havområder i Østersøen - navnlig Kadetrenden - Skagerrak og Kattegat, Storebælt og Øresund oprettes særlige zoner, hvor navnlig olietankskibe ikke længere må passere uden lods.
Underlining the importance of the principle of equality between Member States, Gerard COLLINS (UEN, Munster) argued in favour of full voting rights for each Member of the Commission.
EP opfordrer også EU-Kom-missionen til at fremskynde etableringen af en flåde af for ureningsbekæmpelsesskibe.
On the Union's taxation policies, he called for Member State governments to individually decide their own levels of taxation.
Under ordførerrunden sagde den græske PPE'er Konstantinos HATZIDAKIS. at der er tale om et meget kompliceret spørgsmål med mange aspekter.
However, she warned that the EU was making law that was not always implemented and she called for the all institutions to produce cost-benefit analyses of amendments proposed to legislation.
Der er mange problemer, men et af dem er, at den gældende EU-lovgivning ikke respekteres.
This, she said, would be increasingly important in
Dobbeltskrogede skibe er en god ting, men det er ingen universalløsning. salløsning.
Richard CORBETT (PES, Yorkshire and the Humber) declared the challenge now is "to get the Constitution through the IGC without it being dismantled bit by bit".
Under fremlæggelsen af sin betænkning sagde Dirk Sterckx. at tanken med udvalgsarbejdet var at forbedre sikkerheden til søs. og at lære lektien af "Prestiges" forlis.
INTERNAL MARKET and understandability of the Union", he warned the House however of several dangers.
Sterckx pegede bl.a. på 4 lektier vi kan lære af "Prestiges" forlis: • Der var ingen nødhavn, hvor ulykken fandt sted. og det var en fejl at slæbe skibet til havs. hvilket blot forværrede katastrofen.
Secondly, by providing 'one vote per commissioner', the college "might be transformed into a sort of coreper".
Han håbede på. at Kommissionen ville fremlægge et lovforslag om nødhavne/tilflugtshavne.
Finally, he argued that " imposing a particular form of religion in the Treaty would be a form of cultural imperialism".
A nsvarsforflygtigelse?
He called for a referendum in the UK.
Det britiske labourmedlem Brian SIMPSON mente, at der er tale om en klar og afbalanceret betænkning.
Without one, he warned, the people would rise up against the Constitution leading to nationalism that the EU institutions so despised.
Der er dog behov for yderligere undersøgelser af katastrofen og dens konsekvenser, og der er behov for et midlertidigt undersøgelsesudvalg, ellers er der tale om ansvarsforflygtigelse, sluttede Brian Simpson
Arlene McCARTHY (PES, North West) Report on the proposal for a directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on the patentability of computer-implemented inventions (COM(2002) 92 C5-0082/2002 2002/0047(COD)) Doc: A5-0238/2003 Procedure : Codecision (1st reading) Debate: 23.09.2003 Vote : 24.09.2003
Gamle skibe skal kontrolleres bedre.
Parliament adopted a legislative resolution on computer implemented inventions.
En af ballasttankene i "Prestige" var ikke kontrolleret ordentligt.
The central question was whether the current practice of the European Patent Office issuing patents for computer implemented inventions should be formally legalised.
Dobbeltskrogede skibe er dog ingen mirakelkur, og nogle eksperter mener, at dobbeltskrogede skibe vil få problemer med rust og metaltræthed om 25 år.
MEPs answered this question positively by voting 361 votes in favour, 157 against and 28 abstentions on the legislative resolution.
Det er nødvendigt med en europæisk kystvagt til at bekæmpe olieforureningsulykker og
Timothy KIRKHOPE (EPP-ED, Yorkshire and the Humber) stated that he was proposing an amendment to reassert the dual democratic nature of the Union with Member States having the predominant role.
Hurtigere udfasning! Den hollandske liberale Herman VERMEER opfordrede Kommissionen til at følge op på de forslag, der fremlægges i Sterckx-betænkningen.
He called for closer cooperation between MPs and MEPs and was highly critical of the UK's tendency to "gold-plate EU legislation." Citing the example of the Abattoirs Directive, he stated that the EU Ministers had come to agreement on a 12 page document.
Vermeer lagde stor vægt på, at enkeltskrogede olietankskibe udfases hurtigere end planlagt, og at man vedtager en
France, when transposing the directive into national law, had reduced the directive to 7 pages whereas the UK had transposed it into "an unreadable 95 pages."
September II - 2003 ophugningsplan. så de ikke ender i u-landene eller i det fjerne Østen.
September II - 2003 any invention must contribute. Furthermore, article 52 of the Convention on patents states that software is not patentable.
Politisk kamp Den tyske PDS'er Helmuth MARKOV pegede på den politiske kamp, man havde haft i transportudvalget, om man skulle ned sætte et undersøgelsesudvalg.
deprived of his or her invention when it has been made public before applying for a patent, for instance in order to test its attractiveness to the market.
Hans gruppe gik ind for et midlertidigt undersøgelsesudvalg, idet skyldsspørgsmålet ikke var afklaret.
However, such an innovation could not be introduced solely for patents for computer-implemented inventions without a prior study of its impact and its compatibility with the Community's international obligations under, for instance, TRIPs.
Han fremhævede, at EU bør arbejde for tre ting: 1. at Østersøen klassificeres som særligt følsomt område, og at der i forbindelse hermed iværksættes præventive foranstaltninger, der skal forhindre forlis, 2. at man påbegynder udfasninger af enkeltskrogede tankskibe og 3. at EU's tildeling af miljøudviklingsstøtte bør være proportionalt med landenes sikring af deres tankskibe.
Additionally, to deserve a patent, the technical contribution has to be new, nonobvious, and susceptible of industrial application.
Computeropfindelser: Patent og ophavsret
Accordingly, inventions involving computer programs
Den spanske grønne Camilo NOGUEIRA ROMAN fastslog, at i Galicien vil man aldrig mere se en sådan katastrofe igen.
He added that microchips are essential to every day gadgets, such as mobile phones and microwaves.
Der har været 6 alvorlige ulykker på 30 år, men Erika pakkerne er ikke gennemført i praksis i med lemslandene, så det kan ske igen!
He pointed out that patentability of computer implemented inventions was already covered to some extent by the European patent system.
Han kritiserede de spanske myndigheders holdning, og han gik ind for nedsættelsen af et midlertidigt undersøgelsesudvalg i EP om årsagen til ulykken.
But it is to firstly clarify the scope of patentability of software. Secondly, the aim was to harmonise on the base of existing practises, he added.
Måske kan man vedtage "Galicienprotokollen" - ligesom vi har "Kyoto-protokollen? kollen?
The Commissioner went on to stress that "nothing would become patentable which is not already covered by existing patent law".
Han understregede derfor, at det nu er på høje tid at gennemføre Erika pakkerne i praksis i medlemslandene.
He clarified that the legislation aimed to tighten up already existing rules.
Den hollandske EDD'er Rijk van DAM pegede på. at de spanske myndigheder kunne have begrænset skaderne. Han gik ind for nedsættelsen af et midlertidigt undersøgelsesudvalg, og lagde vægt på nødhavne, dobbeltskrogede olietankskibe og katastrofe planer.
On the use of patented techniques, MEPs say that the Member States should ensure that, wherever the use of a patented technique is needed for a significant purpose such as ensuring conversion of the conventions used in two different computer systems or networks so as to allow communication and exchange of data content between them, such use should not be considered to be a patent infringement.
UK) om computerimplementerede opfindelsers patenterbarhed. Betænkningen blev vedtaget med 361 stemmer for, 153 stemmer imod. medens 28 undlod at stemme. Formålet med EU-Kom-missionens direktivforslag var at sikre, at patenter på computeropfindelser meddeles på samme grundlag overalt i EU.
MEPs also introduce a "grace period' in respect of elements of a patent application for any type of invention disclosed prior to the date of the application.
Forudsætningen for at kunne tage patent på en computeropfindelse er, at den kan anvendes industrielt og at den er teknologisk innovativ.
It has been strongly argued that a grace period is necessary to avoid an inventor being
Østersøen: særligt følsomt område Bent Hindrup ANDERSEN fra Juni Bevægelsen sagde, at "Prestiges" forlis er skræmmende og derefter brugte han sin taletid på at understrege, at Østersøen er et særligt følsomt område hvad angår risici for eventuelle tankskibes forlis.
He expressed his concern on a number of the House's amendments. which were "unacceptable to lhe Commission".
Hindrup Andersen udtrykte særligt bekymring for de russiske enkeltskrogede tankskibe, der
For him, two consequences, unforeseen by some Members of Parliament, may arise and cause further inconveniences.
Patent eller -ophavsret? EP understregede, at det er centralt at skelne mellem opfindelser, der har krav på at opnå patentret og idéer, der kan beskyttes af op havsretten.
First, the Commissioner believed that in the complete absence of harmonisation at Community-
EP-Ugen eksklusiv ret til at implementere en "edb-pro-gramrelateret opfindelse" i et program.
The Week working in the European Parliament, she had never been lobbied in such an aggressive way.
2. at det grænseoverskridende patentkontor, der tager sig af patenter også udover EU's grænser, vil kunne handle uafhængigt af EU, og at EU dermed kan blive tvunget til at genforhandle den Europæiske Patentkonvention.
For her, the aim was to harmonise but, she argued, that there was legal uncertainty to what is patentable to software.
Beskytte små og mellemstore virksomheder EP var enige om, at det er centralt, at en euro pæisk patentlovgivning bidrager til at sikre, at små og mellemstore virksomheder ikke kommer i klemme i forbindelse med uklare patentregler, og at en patentlovgivning derimod skal bidrage til at fremme små og mellemstore virksomheders konkurrenceevne på verdensplan.
Secondly, he reminded the House that, as a result of the European patent office, there was a supranational patent system that could already act independently of community legislation. He warned Members that if the directive was not adopted, there may well be renegotiations of the European Patent Convention, which would not require the contribution of this Parliament.
Sikre små og mellemstore virksomheder Ordføreren Arlene McCARTHY (PSE, UK) sagde, at formålet med betænkningen om Kommissionens direktivforslag er, at støtte små og mellemstore virksomheder i EU og at sikre deres konkurrenceevne på verdensplan.
For the Culture Committee, Michel ROCARD (PES, F) stressed that the debate is complicated both in legal and computer terms.
Hun redegjorde for, at de ændringsforslag, der er fremsat i betænkningen, har til formål at sikre at ren software ikke kan patenteres.
"What is at stake is tens of billions of euros", he reminded the House.
Endvidere er formålet at forhindre monopoldannelser.
He explained that copyright rules try to protect the. inventors, whereas software is built on the creation and human knowledge of the past.
Den hollandske EU-kommissær Frederik Frits BOLKESTEIN åbnede debatten om computer-implementerede opfindelsers patenter barhed med at rose ordføreren Arlene McCARTHY (PSE, UK) for hendes arbejde i forbindelse med udarbejdelsen af betænkningen. ningen.
Arlene MCCARTHY (PES, North West), the rapporteur, made it clear that her report was not about introducing a new patent law, nor was it about patenting software and extending the scope of patents. This despite much lobbying to the contrary.
Anmodninger til Kommissionen McCarthy anmodede ligeledes Kommissionen om at arbejde målrettet med at skabe en klar europæisk patentlovgivning, og at vurdere ændringsforslagene endnu engang.
Joachim WUERMELING (D), for the EPP-ED group, broadly supported the rapporteur, and hè alluded to the technical and legal difficulties surrounding the issue.
Hun understregede, at det er afgørende at få etableret en god praksis på området, at udelukke alt, der ikke er opfindelser og at beskytte de europæiske små og mellemstore virksomheder. heder.
He regretted the sometimes personal and irrational lobbying that had taken place. His groups' aim was to ensure all business, including SMEs, could benefit from the legislation.
Juridisk og teknisk kompliceret område Bolkestein understregede, at emnet er særdeles kompliceret såvel juridisk som teknisk.
For the PES group, Manuel MEDINA ORTEGA (PES, E) also underlined that the proposed legislation was not about patenting software, a common misconception of some in the IT industry.
Han fremhævede, at formålet med Kommissionens direktivforslag er at sikre, at rene edb-programmer (software) ikke kan patenteres.
The US model of allowing patents for computer software, he stated, was not a model that the EU should follow.
Direktivforslagets sigte er, at klargøre og harmonisere reglerne for patenterbarheden af computeropfindelser, hvori der indgår software, men at forhindre at software som sådan kan patenteres.
It was clear that the EU needed a directive as there was now a trend towards too many patents and too much protection which had had damaging consequences on research and development.
Personlig forfølgelse McCarthy udtrykte harme over. at hun under arbejdet med betænkningen er blevet personligt forfulgt af modstandere af direktivforslaget, og at hun derfor i perioder har været nødt til at sygemelde sig som følge af stress.
Mrs McCarthy pointed out that computer implemented inventions play an important role in all our lives - from washing machines and microwaves to computers.
Kritik af modstand mod direktivforslag Bolkestein imødegik den kritik, der har været omkring direktivforslaget og understregede, at forslaget skal medvirke til at sikre små og mellemstore virksomheders konkurrence evne, fremfor at vanskeliggøre deres vilkår, som hævdet af kritikerne.
She stated that she was against going down the US route of patenting software and cited the "one click" Amazon patent as an example of a bad patent law.
Endelig under stregede han. at Kommissionen er imod de ændringsforslag, der er blevet fremsat til betænkningen, idet de ændrer principperne for hele direktivforslaget.
Mrs McCarthy rejected the criticisms from small and medium sized enterprises, stating that she had received letters from SMEs calling for such legislation to be introduced.
Bolkestein hævdede, at vedtagelse af ændringsforslagene i værste fald kan medføre to ting:
A company from the South West of England, specialising in voice recognition technology, had written to her welcoming her report.
Hun fremhævede, at målet med forslaget er at harmonisere EU's lovgivning på patentområdet.
She stated that her report was wellbalanced and it was in fact about limiting patents to certain implemented inventions.
Ifølge Plooij-van Gorsel er der i øjeblikket uklarheder, fordi EU's patent lovgivning fortolkes forskelligt, og der er der for brug for gennemsigtighed på området.
This would ensure interoperability, and she underlined that this was not just about big business.
Hun understregede, at formålet med forslaget ikke er at skabe nye patenter, men derimod at klargøre hvad der forstås ved en opfindelse.
The introduction of affordable patents and the protection of open-source community formed important parts of her report.
1. at patentbureauer frit kan give patenter, også på software, hvilket vil medføre at grænsen mellem patenterbare op findelser og software udviskes, hvilket vil være i strid med den Europæiske Patentkonvention og
Toine MANDERS (NL). for the Liberals, underlined that it was difficult, but necessary, to make a distinction between copyright and patenting. He spoke in favour of a proposed
September II ­ 2003 for at forhindre at triviale opfindelser opnår patenter.
September II - 2003 implemented inventions could lead, he warned, to much confusion.
intellektuelle ejendomsrettigheder gøres til genstand for en overgangsperiode.
amendment offering grace period. The reference to a grace period, he stated, overlaps with an on-going debate in general patenting law, as a similar concept exists in some legal systems (in particular the US), but not in the European Union legislation.
Endvidere mente han, at der bør indføres klare grænser for, hvor længe et patent kan opretholdes.
Specifically, elements disclosed by the applicant for a patent over a period of six months before the date of the application, he outlined, should not be considered to be part of the state of the art when assessing that particular claim.
Forskel på en opfindelse og en idé Michel ROCARD (PSE, FR) sagde på vegne af Kulturudvalget, at EU­Kommissionen i direktivforslaget ikke har ført dens egen logik til ende.
Neil MacCORMICK (Greens/EFA, Scotland) warned against possible "leakage" from genuine protection of computer implemented inventions to companies being able to patent computer software.
Hermed mente han, at forslaget ikke indeholder en klar sondring mellem en op­findelse og en idé.
He stated that the present system, where genuine inventions are patentable and software is protected by copyright worked well.
Rocard fremførte, at stor­industrien udnytter de mange gråzoner i patentlovgivningen til at tage patent på soft­ware, hvilket har direkte negative konsekven­ser for de små og mellemstore virksomheder.
The responsibility, he underlined, lay with the Commission to find a balance between over and under protection for inventions.
Giv tvivlen en chance Den danske SF'er Pernille FRAHM frem­hævede den massive modstand, EU­Kommis­sionens direktivforslag er blevet mødt med. Især hæftede hun sig ved, at de små og mel­lemstore virksomheder, hvilke forslaget har til hensigt at beskytte, i udstrakt grad har kri­tiseret forslaget.
On behalf of the EUL/NGL group, Pernille FRAHM (DK) wondered why SMEs were not demanding to pursue the directive, but rather doing the opposite.
Frahm understregede lige­ledes, at det vil være umuligt for små og mellemstore virksomheder at kræve deres rettigheder på patentområdet, da en retssag koster ca. 1 mio. euro, hvilket er et uover­skueligt beløb for sådanne virksomheder.
"It leaves some doubts, as our intention is to create more development for SMEs in this area", she added.
Hun anbefalede, at EU i første omgang holder sig til den Europæiske Patentkonvention og at man forhindrer, at det Europæiske Patent­kontor fortsætter med at udvide deres beføjel­ser, før der foreligger en klar lovgivning.
Arguing that this incentive could involve too many costs for the SME sector, she called on Members to listen more to what SMEs were saying.
D), i tråd med de øvrige talere, en klar sondring mellem egentlige computerrelaterede opfindelser og software.
West Midlands) stated that patents played an indispensable role in making the EU the most dynamic knowledge based economy in the world.
Han understregede, at klassiske op­findelser fortjener beskyttelse fra de ansvar­lige myndigheder.
Patents, he said, help to stimulate investment and encourage invention.
Wuermeling fremførte, at der ifortiden er givet altfor mange patenter, og at en klar lovgivning, der afgrænser soft­ware fra egentlige opfindelser, er nødvendig for at ændre den nuværende praksis på om­rådet.
Protecting genuine invention and creativity would help business to develop products that people want to buy.
Den spanske socialdemokrat Manuel MEDINA ORTEGA talte for en "gennem­gribende ændring" af EU­Kommissionens direktivforslag, da anvendelsen af computer­implementerede opfindelser til industripro­duktion ikke er tilstrækkeligt defineret i for­slaget.
For Antonio MUSSA (I), who spoke on behalf of the UEN group, "computers are the backbone of development in all countries of the world and innovation is predicted through patentability".
Han fremhævede, at det er afgørende at skabe et fællesskabsdirektiv, der ikke re­gulerer programmering.
He stressed that the EU did not need more rules and pointed out that his group does not support the draft report.
