Bonde bad formanden med dele, at afstemningen var på dagsordenen under april-samlingen.
MEPs point out that where fraud and irregularities are not discovered or reported, it is the EU budget which bears the cost and not the Member States.
Mistillidsvotum til Kommissionen: Afstemning i Strasbourg 4. maj 2004!
Finally, MEPs urge the Council and Member States to speak with one voice at the conference.
Forslag til beslutning Forslag om mistillidsvotum til Kommissionen Dok.: B5-0189/2004
April - 2004
Et par timer senere - lige før afstemningen -sagde den irske EP-formand Pat COX, at for slaget til mistillidsvotum var korrekt indgivet, men at afstemningen først kunne finde sted 48 timer efter debatten i EP, hvilket vil sige under mini-samlingen i Strasbourg i maj.
Commissioners to be responsible for budgets and budgetary control.
66 MEP'er har skrevet under på et forslag om mistillidsvotum til Kommissionen.
Commission should also be tougher in launching infringement procedures and following them through.
Forslaget kommer til afstemning tirsdag den 4. maj under EP-samlingen i Strasbourg, som er den sidste før valget til Europa-Parlamentet den 10.-13 juni 2004.
MEPs urged that in the new Commission one commissioner should have particular responsibility for infringement procedures, partly in view of enlargement.
Baggrunden for forslaget om mistillidsvotum er, at Kommissionen ikke har placeret ansvaret for "Eurostat-affæren ", og at der stadig ikke synes at være en "ansvarlig virksomhedskultur" i Kommissionen. sionen.
Other issues addressed by Parliament were the introduction of a more direct link between taxpayers and the EU budget, the gradual abolishment of the export refund system, and the risks in the field of humanitarian aid.
Formanden for socialistgruppen, spanieren Enrique BARÓN pegede på, at man burde slå de 3 punkter om "Eurostatsagen" sammen, nemlig Stauner-betænkningen, Kommissionens udtalelse om sagen samt Bondes m.fl. forslag om mistillidsvotum. Pat Cox fastslog, at mistillidsvotummet var korrekt indgivet, medens formanden for PPE-gruppen, den tyske CDU'er Hans-Gert POTTERING understregede, at hans gruppe intet havde med mistillidsvotumet at gøre.
The administrative reforms announced by the Commission were deemed by MEPs to have shown little tangible progress.
Han opfordrede Enrique Barón til lige at glemme valg kampen.
Moreover, the implementation of risk assessment as part of internal control was seen as unsatisfactory.
Man mener, at Kommissionen i betragtning af den manglende tillid, der er opstået, må på tage sig et kollektivt ansvar for ikke at have handlet på talrige opfordringer.
In relation to the Eurostat affair, MEPs warned that vigilance is needed should the legal proceedings now under way make it necessary to demand political explanations from the Commissioners concerned.
Kommissionen har ikke været i stand til at opfylde sine forpligtelser i henhold til EU-traktatens artikel 276 og sit eget mål om "nul-tolerance" over for svindel/bedrageri og op nåelse af "den bedste forvaltning i verden".
The affair had shown the need for safeguards against concealment of critical information and for a review of the relations between different services and individual commissioners.
Danske MEP'er En række danske MEP'er er medunderskrivere på forslaget om mistillidsvotum: Bent Hindrup Andersen, Freddy Blak, Jens-Peter Bonde, Mogens Camre, Pernille Frahm, Ole Krarup og Ulla Sandbæk.
Among the recommendations in the accompanying resolution - adopted by 436 votes in favour, 34 against and 48 abstentions - were increasing the accountability for the use of funds allocated to the political groups, reviewing the MEPs' allowances system and introducing a smoking ban in all public places in Parliament's buildings.
Han opfordrede derfor Kommissionen til selv at placere ansvaret, for så er sagen ude af verden. Mogens CAMRE fra Dansk Folkeparti var bekendt med, at 2 MEP'er fra hans gruppe havde skrevet under, men de var slettet af listen.
External companies contracted by EU institutions should be required to clarify their ownership when there is reason to suspect a conflict of interest.

The Bureau should also bring the rules governing the use of money intended to cover the expenditure by political groups more closely into line with the provisions of the Financial Regulation.
PPE-gruppen ikke deltog i afstemningen i protest mod, at EP-formand Pat COX - efter en afstemning herom - havde afvist 338 ændringsforslag. Formanden for PPE-gruppen, den tyske CDU'er Hans-Gert POTTERING mente, at formandens beslutning ikke holderjuridisk, og derfor ville hans gruppe undlade at stemme.
Any derogation from the Financial Regulation should be based on sound legal and practical considerations.
Han mente, at det var en idiotisk politisk handling, og at det var hykleri overfor vælgerne, som intet forstår.
Parliament has granted discharge to the Council, Court of Justice, Court of Auditors, the Economic and Social Committee, Committee of the Regions and the Ombudsman, although it had some reservations concerning the Court of Justice, the Court of Auditors and the Committee of the Regions and although it wanted a better insight into the Council's operational expenditure in the future.
Cohn-Bendit ønskede et mistillidsvotum til Bonde, som ikke har for stand på traktaterne.
MEPs stressed the need for a more comprehensive exchange of information with the Council on its budget expenditure.
EP-formand Pat Cox rundede af med at sige: - "Very good!".
They welcomed the Council's proposal for an informal dialogue in the course of the discharge procedure.
Det var ligesom åndenfra 68 var tilbage, fastslog Cox.
MEPs had been upset that, unlike last year, the Council had refused this year to reply to the questions sent to it by the committee.
Et forslag om at tage Boogerd-Quaak-betænkningen af EP-dagsordenen blev nedstemt med 259 stemmer mod 214 - medens 1 undlod at stemme. Boogerd-Quaak-betænkningen blev vedtaget efter nogle af de mest ophidsede debatter i Europa-Parlamentets historie.
In the case of the Court of Auditors and the Court of Justice, MEPs asked Parliament's Budgets Committee to hold part of the 2005 administrative appropriations in reserve if there is no satisfactory response to the EP's concern over non-official car use and the
Onsdag den 21. april 2004 om morgenen op stod der en længere meningsudveksling i EP om afstemningen om Boogerd-Quaak-betænkningen om mediepluralisme i EU, hvor den italienske ministerpræsident Silvio Berlusconi bl.a. kritiseres for at kontrollere de italienske TV-kanaler.
April - 2004
Meningsudvekslingen fortsatte ved begyndelsen af afstemningerne kl. 12, og det hele endte med, at Europa-Parlamentet besluttede at udsætte afstemningen om Boogerd-Quaak-betænkningen til torsdag den 22. april kl. 12..

MEPs also proposed that discharge be granted to the Economic and Social Committee and the Ombudsman.
Der var fremsat 338 ændringsforslag - heraf 157 fra PPE-gruppen om elektronisk afstemning og adskilte afstemninger, som i "bedste fald" ville have medført ca. 600 afstemninger, hvilket ville have taget ca. 2 timer af Europa-Parlamentets tid.
MEPs said a root and branch overhaul of senior management, working methods and respect for internal audit were essential and that they were surprised at the dismissal of the findings and recommendations in the OLAF report, which was very critical.
EP besluttede med 234 stemmer for, 214 imod - medens 15 undlod at stemme - at afvise de 600 afstemninger.
They also deplored the treatment of the then Financial Controller -who has since become the Internal Auditor -and wanted to know why the internal audit unit had not yet been strengthened.
Pluralismen i EU trues af den styring af medierne, der udøves af politiske organer eller enkeltpersoner og visse kommercielle organisationer - fx. reklamebureauer.

Criticism was also expressed at the fact that the administrative inquiry was not concluded until April but that the Administration has already earlier established that the Internal Auditor has not been harassed at all.

Parliament announced that it would continue to monitor future developments in the OLAF investigations and possible legal actions.
I en betænkning af den østrigske grønne Johannes VOGGENHUBER hilser EP Kommissionens initiativ velkommen som et vigtigt bidrag til at etablere et tæt samarbejde mellem alle EU's institutioner til gavn for menneskerettighederne, de grundlæggende friheder og EU's værdier og principper.

On reforms in general, Parliament - in spite of its criticism - did recognise that almost all of the reforms announced in 2000 have been adopted.
Man mener, at den aktuelle situation i Italien muligvis kunne være undgået, hvis medlemslandenes forpligtelse til at sikre mediernes pluralisme var blevet fastlagt efter grønbogen om pluralisme i 1992.

They were similarly urged to develop a common framework for the classification of consumer complaints.

Ordfører: Dirk STERCKX (ELDR, B) Øget sikkerhed til søs Dok.: A5-0257/2004
April - 2004
Under de 3 offentlige høringer og mødet med Prestiges kaptajn er der kommet nyttige og supplerende oplysninger frem, både om sagsbehandlingen af "Prestige"-katastrofen og om mulighederne for forbedring af søfartssikkerheden i Europa og på verdensplan.
Fiorella GHILARDOTTI (PES, I) Report on the proposal for a European Parliament and Council directive concerning unfair business-to-consumer commercial practices in the Internal Market and amending Directives 84/450/EEC, 97/7/EC and 98/27/EC (the Unfair Commercial Practices Directive)
Procedure: Den ikke-lovgivningsmæssige procedure Forhandling: 20.4.2004 Afstemning: 21.4.2004
(COM(2003) 356 - C5-0288/2003 2003/0134(COD)) Doc: A5-0188/2004 Procedure : Codecision (1st reading) Debate : 19.04.2004 Vote: 20.04.2004
Sterckx-betænkningen blev vedtaget med 396 stemmer mod 24 - medens 13 undlod at stemme.
Furthermore traders and publishers must make it clear that such features are in fact advertisements, for example by heading them "advertisement feature".
Den 19. november 2002 sank olietankeren "Prestige" ud for den galiciske kyst - i Nordspanien - efter at have drevet rundt i hårdt vejr i 6 dage.
The House called for a number of changes to a draft directive on unfair business-to-consumer commercial practices when it adopted a firstreading report drafted by Fiorella GHILARDOTTI (PES, I).
Dette førte til en økologisk og økonomisk katastrofe af usædvanligt omfang.
The aim of the directive is to lay down standard EU-wide criteria for determining whether a commercial practice is unfair, although without imposing any positive obligations on traders to show that they are trading fairly.
Især fiskeri- og turistsektoren i Galicien og i de tilgrænsende regioner er blevet hårdt ramt.
Standardisation is needed to tackle internal market barriers caused by differing national legislation and thereby boost consumer confidence.
Olien har også spredt sig over et stort område og har ikke kun ført til forurening af den spanske kyst, men også af de franske og portugisiske kyster.
Finally the House adopted an amendment stating that the Commission must report regularly to the EP and the Council on the application of the directive in the Member States and should put forward, every five years, a proposal for a revised list of commercial practices which are in all circumstances considered unfair.
I Sterckx-betænkningen peger EP på uklarheden om, hvad der præcist er blevet af brændselsolien fra "Prestige".
The House sought to further define the scope of the Commission proposal on unfair business-to-consumer commercial practices.
Før katastrofen var der 77.000 tons svær brændselsolie om bord på "Prestige", og der skønnes nu at være 14.000 tons tilbage på skibet, at ca. 43.000 tons - ifølge tal fra de spanske myndigheder -er skyllet land eller er blevet ryddet op.
Whereas the Commission proposal stated that the directive would apply to unfair commercial practices before and after a commercial transaction in relation to any product, the Parliament amended the proposal to say that it shall apply "to consumers transactional decisions even where these decisions do not result in a contract between the consumer and a trader".
"MARE-udvalget" Den 5. november 2003 vedtog EP at nedsætte et midlertidigt udvalg til forbedring af sikkerheden til søs - det såkaldte "MARE-udvalg".
Parliament therefore stated that Member States should retain the right to grant their consumers even higher standards of protection.
"MARE-udvalget" fik bl.a. følgende opgaver.
An example would be the rules on the annual percentage rate of charge laid down in the directive.
At foretage en grundig undersøgelse af katastrofer til søs, navnlig "Prestiges" og "Erikas" forlis samt andre nylige ulykker og hændelser,
Parliament adopted a non-binding resolution relating to fruit jams, jellies and marmalades and sweetened chestnut purée intended for human consumption.
Retssag mod kaptajnen EP beklager, at næsten 1 Ά år efter "Prestige"-katastrofen er der stadig ingen undersøgelser af årsagerne til og om stændighederne omkring katastrofen, som er blevet afsluttet eller offentliggjort.
MEPs wish to exclude various types of loans from the directive. These include credit agreements of less than €500 or more than €100,000 in net loan, further credit agreements secured either by a mortgage on immovable property, hiring and leasing agreements, private credit agreements, credit which an employer gives his employees as a subsidiary service and credit in the form of an advance on a current account or a debit account if the total amount must be paid back within three months or on demand.
Man appellerer til de spanske myndigheder om at lempe kaptajn Mangouras' pligt til dagligt at melde sig og så hurtigt som muligt at sørge for, at der fastsættes en dato og en plan for retssagen imod kaptajnen.
Another key point for MEPs is the need for standardised information about credit offers and credit agreements, to enable consumers to make comparisons more easily Europe-wide and choose the best product.
At foretage en yderligere analyse af de sociale og økonomiske følgevirkninger, navnlig med henblik på fiskeri, industri, og turisme såvel som miljø og sundhed,

Janelly FOURTOU (EPPED, F) Report on the proposal for a European Parliament and Council regulation amending Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 establishing the Community Customs Code (COM(2003) 452 - C5-0345/2003 2003/0167(COD)) Doc: A5-0255/2004 Procedure : Codecision (1st reading) Debate : 19.04.2004 Vote: 20.04.2004
Vigtige EU­tiltag I Sterckx­betænkningen fastslås det, at der i forbindelse med "Erika" og "Prestige" er truffet vigtige EU­tiltag for at øge søfarts­sikkerheden i EU­farvande, og at medlems­landenes hurtige og fuldstændige gennem­førelse og strenge overholdelse af EU­lovgiv­ningen bør derfor have første prioritet.
Regarding cross-border credit, the Parliament says each Member State must grant access to databases to creditors from other Member States under the same conditions as for firms and individuals in its own country.
Man beklager derfor, at 8 medlemslande ­ Italien, Portugal, Østrig, Luxembourg, Grækenland, Finland, Belgien og Holland ­ endnu ikke eller kun ufuldstændigt har gennemført 2 vig­tige direktiver om havnestatskontrol og klassifikationsselskaber i national lovgivning.
MEPs added that the consumer and the guarantor have to be informed of the results of any such consultation immediately and without charge. The consumer should be allowed to pay back loans at any time before the period fixed in the agreement.
EP var skuffet over medlemslandenes mangelfulde opfølgning af "Erika I"­ og "Erika II"­pakkerne, og man skulle lige have "Prestige­katastrofen" med, før man om­satte disse direktiver til national lovgivning.
The House adopted by 454 votes in favour, 7 against with 51 abstentions a number of amendments to the Community Customs Code regulation, with a vote under the simplified procedure.
Man anmoder Kommissionen om at undersøge muligheden for en obliga­torisk forsikring for skibe i EU­farvande, sådan at skibsejeren kan afkræves erstatning for omkostninger til tilflugtsområderne.
In the case of consumer credits linked with another contract, the Member States remain free to maintain more far-reaching provisions, such as for example the principle of joint and several liability existing in the United Kingdom, to protect consumers.
"Erika I"­ og "Erika ΙΓ'­pakkerne samt opfølgningen på "Prestiges" forlis har vi fået en EU­lovgivning om sikkerhed til søs, som var "ikke­eksisterende" inden denne mandat­periode.
In order to achieve this objective the establishment of an equivalent level of customs control in the Community is necessary, as is the guarantee of a harmonised application of customs controls by the Member States.
