Han gik ind for at fastholde princippet om en bæredygtig udvikling i den transatlantiske dialog.
Mr Andrews nevertheless stressed that the Irish people had made a decision in good faith and that it ill behoved anti-Europeans to "dance on the graves of the Eastern Europeans who wished to join the EU".
Efter hans mening demonstrerer krisen i Makedonien i høj grad behovet for en yderligere udvikling af den fælles udenrigs- og sikkerhedspolitik.
He considered that there had been confusion and the truth had not been properly sold to the people.
Francis WURTZ (GUE/NGL, F) mente, at resultatet af den irske folkeafstemning og de europæiske højreekstremisters fremgang er udtryk for, at der er blevet skabt et EU, der ligger alt for langt fra borgerne.
For the Commission, Mr Prodi too felt that the lesson to be learned was to improve contacts with the citizens and explain issues clearly.
Det euro pæiske forsvarssamarbejde er efter hans mening et godt eksempel, idet selv traditionelt neutrale lande hermed går ind for militarismen. Samtidig kunne han godt forstå, at borgerne tager afstand fra indholdet af Nicetraktaten.
He did not see the vote as a rejection of the EU as such but rather felt the message should be to look at other ways of pursuing European integration.
Han gik derfor ind for en genforhandling af traktaten med henblik på at få en tilbundsgående behandling af de grund læggende spørgsmål, uden dog af den grund at forsinke udvidelsen.
He defended the Commission's decision earlier in the year to criticise Ireland for not respecting the Broad Economic Policy Guidelines but emphasised that this decision was taken not out of malice but rather as a result of the Commission fulfilling its responsibility in monitoring EU rules.
Men han erkendte, at der er behov for en bred debat med henblik på at få befolkningen til at gå mere aktivt ind for EU.
He also emphasised that his proposal for a European tax was not intended to increase the tax burden as such but rather enable financing for EU policies to be clearly seen.
Gerard COLLINS (UEN, IRL) udtrykte sin tilfredshed med det svenske formandskab.
Bill MILLER (PES, Scotland) noted that Mr Helmer's party had campaigned to keep the pound rather than the euro and that their policies had been soundly rejected in last week's British election.
I forbindelse med udvidelsesforhandlingerne opfordrede han til, at man nu tager fat på de vanskelige emner, der endnu ikke er blevet behandlet.
Mr Helmer disputed this, arguing that polls showed that the Conservative position on the euro was supported by 65 to 70% of the British people.
Han mente, at det irske folk er positivt indstillet over for udvidelsen.
He also noted that the pro-euro Robin COOK had been "sacked" as Foreign Secretary.
Folkeafstemningen viste, at der er et klart behov for, at befolkningerne i Fællesskabet i langt højere grad bliver ind draget i beslutningerne, fastslog han. I den forbindelse glædede han sig over den nye beslutning om at nedsætte et Europæisk Forum, hvor alle parter i samfundet bliver inddraget.
A Danish view on the issue was provided by Bertel HAARDER (ELDR, DK) who wondered why those who stressed the importance of national independence were happy to intervene in the debates of other countries.
Endelig udtrykte han sin skuffelse over, at den amerikanske regering ikke vil godkende Kyoto-aftalen.
Pernille FRAHM (EUL/NGL, DK) on the other hand stressed the need to respect the results of the Irish referendum.
Jens-Peter BONDE (JuniBevægelsen) talte på vegne af EDD-gruppen.
Earlier in the week, there was a lively exchange of views in the House on the implications to be drawn from the Irish rejection of the draft Nice Treaty in the previous week's referendum.
Han henviste til, at nyhedsbrevet Mandag Morgen i sin leder har overskriften: "Tak, Irland".
Roger HELMER (EPPED, East Midlands) commended the Irish people's "wise and far sighted decision" which, he said, struck a blow for national freedom and independence.
Efter hans mening vil det være stik mod alle EU-løfter og behovet for en bredere folkelig forandring at forsøge at få irerne til at ændre holdning.
In particular he commended the role played by Dana Rosemary SCALLON (EPPED, Connacht/Ulster) in the "No" campaign.
EU-landene har i fællesskab bestemt spille reglerne, som klart siger, at traktaten først træder i kraft, når den er ratificeret i samtlige medlemsstater, understregede han. Ifølge ny-
His fellow EPP-ED member, Joe McCARTIN (EPPED, Connacht/Ulster) expressed his pleasure that Mr Helmer now agreed that freedom was a good thing for Ireland.
Heidi HAUTALA tog stærk afstand fra, at PPE-DE-gruppen anser atomkraft som en vigtig del af den bæredygtige udvikling.
This was a conversion to be welcomed, he declared.
Hun fastslog, at der eksisterer andre alternative bæredygtige energiformer, der udgør et godt alternativ til den forældede atomkraftteknologi.
Mr McCartin, quoting Edmond BURKE, declared that "all that is necessary for evil to triumph is that good men do nothing".
Endvidere lagde hun vægt på at fortsætte udvidelsesforhandlingerne på trods af den irske folkeafstemning. Samtidig mente hun, at w
He believed that those who had voted "no" had been lied to. Next time, he concluded, there would be a different result.

Gianfranco DELL'ALBA ( TDI, I) ville gerne have, at man over for den amerikanske præsident understreger vigtigheden af kampen mod klimaændringerne.
Also, the resolution states, parents or legal custodians who have allowed a child to engage in prostitution or pornography should also be regarded as criminal offenders, as should persons with a special legal obligation (such as educators or social workers) who know that a child has fallen victim to sexual exploitation but have nevertheless failed to notify the law enforcement authorities.
I den forbindelse fremhævede han, at de europæiske lande også selv skal gøre en indsats.
Any criminal sentence should be accompanied by psychiatric treatment.
Derfor opfordrede han medlemsstaterne til i det mindste at holde en ratifikationspause og reflektere over årsagerne til det irske nej. Han vurderede, at der ikke er tale om et isoleret irsk nej, men at resultatet også vil blive et nej i andre medlemsstater, såfremt de tør afholde en folkeafstemning.
Anna KARAMANOU (PES, GR) Report on the proposal for a Council Framework Decision on combating the sexual exploitation of children and child pornography (COM(2000) 854 - C5-0043/2001 2001/0025(CNS)) Doc: A5-0206/2001 Procedure : Consultation procedure Debate: 11.06.2001 Vote: 12.06.2001
Jens-Peter BONDE mente, at kernepunktet i Nice-traktaten ikke er udvidelsen, men spørgsmålet om at flytte magt fra vælgere og folkevalgte til embedsmænd og ministre. Hvorfor skulle vælgerne stemme ja til mindre indflydelse, spurgte han. Samtidig mindede han om, at Europa-Parlamentet heller ikke har godkendt Nicetraktaten.
In the case of child pornography Parliament considers that this should include images of children participating in or witnessing sexually explicit conduct; images which show children's genitals or pubic regions exposed for sexual purposes; and images or texts which aim to encourage, promote or stimulate paedophile acts or to provide information on children who are sexually exploited.
Bertel HAARDER vurderede, at dette resultat er frugten af den antieuropæiske kampagne, som føres af nationalister og venstre fløj sromantikere, støttet af reaktionære briter og tidligere danske kommunister, som altid har bekæmpet det europæiske samarbejde.
In adopting this resolution on measures to harmonise penalties for the sexual exploitation of children and child pornography by 446 votes in favour, 16 against and 48 abstentions, Parliament says that sexual exploitation of children under the age of 16 should be considered an "aggravating circumstance" - carrying a maximum penalty of no less than eight years -instead of setting an age limit of ten years, as the Commission had proposed.
Han henviste til, at fem lande kan optages på grundlag af Amsterdam-traktaten, og at resten stort set kan optages på baggrund af de stemmetal og pladser, der er anført i erklæringen fra topmødet i Nice.
Finally, Parliament advocates better protection of and assistance to victims and witnesses, and says financial compensation for rehabilitation should be compulsory and be financed out of confiscated proceeds of crime.
Selve traktaten er efter hans mening først relevant ved land nr. 27, hvor man mister retten til en kommissær.
Furthermore, registers should be made of all persons convicted of serious sexual offence against children or of child pornography.
Andet står der ikke om udvidelsen i selve traktaten, fastslog han.
These registers should be accessible to all Member States and Europol.
Afslutningsvis opfordrede Bertel HAARDER til at mobilisere det store flertal af borgere i Europa, som gerne vil samarbejde, men som ikke kan overskue de ulæselige traktater, og som ikke kan se en ende på det hele, bla. på grund af Parlamentets egen tendens til at blande sig i stort og småt.

Afslutningsvis opfordrede han til at slanke EU og skabe et åbent, nært og demokratisk samarbejde. Jeg lykønsker det irske folk med et modigt nej og opfordrer topmødet i
MEPs are broadly in favour of the Commission proposal, which would make the sexual exploitation of children - defined as being under the age of 18 - punishable by a maximum prison sentence of no less than four years, or no less than one year for the possession of child pornography, without aggravating circumstances.
slog, at det irske nej skal respekteres.
Combating trafficking human beings
Samtidig mindede hun om, at Nice-traktaten ikke formelt er faldet, før den irske regering officielt meddeler, at Irland ikke kan ratificere den.
Parliament is also in favour of confiscating the proceeds of crime in order to compensate victims.
Det betyder efter hendes opfattelse, at EU har frem til udgangen af 2002 til at se, hvorvidt det er muligt at få en endelig ratifikation af Nicetraktaten.
Member States should provide victims with all necessary assistance, including social, medical and psychological aid and possibly a temporary residence permit.
Hvis det ikke er sket inden udløbet af 2002, så har vi for alvor et problem, erkendte hun.
Parliament also advocated setting up a database of missing persons.
Den fungerende rådsformand, den svenske udenrigsminister Anna LINDH, glædede sig over Parlamentets brede støtte til udvidelsen. Hun understregede, at Parlamentet spiller en afgørende rolle i forbindelse med udvidelsesforhandlingerne. forhandlingerne.
Eva KLAMT (EPPED, D) Report on the proposal for a Council framework decision on combating trafficking in human beings Doc: A5-0183/2001 Procedure : Consultation procedure Debate: 11.06.2001 Vote: 12.06.2001
Danmark har allerede ratificeret traktaten, fordi der er et bredt politisk flertal bag udvidelsen, og traktaten deponeres netop i disse timer i Rom, fortsatte hun.
Parliament adopted with some minor changes the resolution by Eva KLAMT (EPPED, D) on the draft framework decision on measures to harmonise penalties for trafficking in human beings for the purpose of labour or sexual exploitation.
Rådsformanden noterede sig, at der er et stort flertal for at fortsætte ratificeringen af Nicetraktaten. Folkeafstemningen i Irland kan tjene som en påmindelse om, at borgerne i Europa skal inddrages i beslutningerne, understregede hun.
Parliament expressed itself broadly in favour of the Commission proposal, which would make the trafficking of human beings punishable by a maximum prison sentence of no less than six years, or ten years if there are aggravating circumstances.
Derfor var hun glad for, at man i Rådet er indstillet på at respektere afstemningsresultatet og finde en tilfreds stillende løsning for Irland samtidig med, at udvidelsesforhandlingerne skal forsætte som hidtil.
Instigation and aiding and abetting are to be punishable as well, while legal persons who benefit from human trafficking are also to be made legally liable.
Indlæggene fra Jens-Peter BONDE og Francis WURTZ viste efter rådsformandens mening, at med venner som de to talere har kandidatlandene ikke brug for fjender.
Opening the debate on these two proposals, Anna KARAMANOU (PES, GR) described child pornography as a blot on the political landscape of Europe.
Hun var enig med Romano PRODI i, at det nu er nødvendig at tage hul på de vanskelige for handlinger om miljø og kapitalens frie bevægelighed.
It was, she said, a disgrace that the culprits could exploit open borders for such purposes and it was high time that cooperation between EU Member States was increased.
I den forbindelse kunne hun fortælle, at man er tæt på at blive enige om visse overgangsbestemmelser i forbindelse med spørgsmålet om arbejdskraftens fri be vægelighed.
She said there was a need to strengthen police cooperation and to agree a common definition of, for example, pornography so that there could be no loopholes.
Sverige og Holland har i den sammenhæng besluttet at åbne deres grænser for de nye EU-borgere fra det øjeblik, hvor deres respektive lande bliver medlemmer af Unionen.
It was also important to ensure legislation affected others in the field such as teachers and social workers.
Torben LUND (Socialdemokratiet) talte på vegne af PSE-gruppen. Han takkede råds formanden for et godt gennemført svensk EU-formandskab.
Possession of pornographic materials should be made a criminal offence, albeit with safeguards to deal with mistakes.
Efter hans mening vil det være et positivt indspil til den europæiske udvikling at få vedtaget den samlede strategi for en bæredygtig udvikling.
She also recommended increasing the age to which legislation would apply from ten, as proposed by the Commission, to 16.
Der er behov for en obligatorisk ordning for indarbejdelse af miljøhensyn på alle områder i det europæiske samarbejde og med det sjette miljøhandlingsprogram som miljøsøjle i strategien for de kommende år, understregede han.
Furthermore, she argued in favour of the seizure and confiscation of the proceeds of the crimes.
Han hen viste til, at bæredygtighed skal ses i en global sammenhæng, og at der ikke findes andre magtfulde dele af verden end EU, som er i stand til at påtage sig denne rolle.
Nevertheless, she felt it was important to offer psychiatric help to those involved in these activities.
Derfor håbede han, at tilstedeværelsen af den lidet bæredygtige præsident BUSH vil medvirke til at styrke sammenholdet i EU om denne opgave.
In order to make a distinction between the smuggling of human beings, which involves immigrants illegally but voluntarily trying to enter the EU, and the trafficking of human beings, the proposal defines the latter as involving force, violence, threats, deceit or fraud, abuse of authority, pressure or other forms of abuse.
Torben LUND ønskede at respektere den irske afgørelse, men henviste samtidig til udtalelser fra irske politikere, ifølge hvilke det ikke var udvidelsen som sådan, der var problemet i Irland.
In spite of its broad agreement with the draft Council framework decision Parliament adopted 37 amendments to tidy up the text. Thus it felt that human trafficking should not only be made punishable, but should explicitly be classed as a criminal offence.
Derfor mente han, at udvidelsen skal fortsættes i uformindsket tempo, indtil der er fundet en løsning i Irland.
However, assistance given to persons without proper papers on humanitarian grounds should not be considered a crime.
Det vil være en stor fejltagelse at udskyde eller forsinke udvidelsen på grund af denne
By contrast, the complicity of civil servants, police
Anna LINDH understregede, at det svenske formandskab vil stå fast på Kyoto-protokollen i forbindelse med den amerikanske præsidents besøg i Göteborg.
Commenting on the related proposal dealing with the trafficking in human beings, Eva KLAMT (EPPED, D) pointed out that some 120,000 women and children were abducted from Eastern Europe every year to be brought into the EU for exploitation.
Ugen i Parlamentet
The Week concerned.
UDENRIGSANLIGGENDER den makedoniske præsident ikke som forudset kunne komme til Strasbourg på grund af den alvorlige situation i hans land.
She also argued strongly in favour for proper support systems for victims, before taking Council to task for agreeing its position without waiting for Parliament's opinion.
Afslutningsvis takkede hun Europa-Parlamentet for et godt samarbejde.
This being the case, she would be urging the House to vote for the report to be referred back for further discussions.
Ordfører: Elmar BROK (PPEDE, D) Forslag til Rådets afgørelse om yderligere ekstraordinær finansiel bistand dl Kosovo Dok.: A5-0209/2001 Procedure: Høringsproceduren (*) Forhandling: 13.6.2001 Afstemning: 14.6.2001
Even the US was introducing legislation at a federal level to deal with this problem, she said, expressing concern about Council taking a decision without listening to Parliament or indeed explaining to Parliament the reasoning behind its thinking.
Kommissionsformanden, Romano PRODI glædede sig over, at Parlamentet tager det irske folks ønske alvorligt.
For the Culture Committee, Liz LYNNE (ELDR, West Midlands) argued that the problem of sexual exploitation of children and child pornography was so grave that there was an urgent need for EU action that could not be resisted on subsidiarity grounds.
Resultatet bør tilskynde til at gå i gang med en ny form for europæisk lovgivning, sagde han.
There was, therefore, a need for a common system of penalties.
Efter hans mening vil indkaldelse af et stort konvent til forberedelse af den næste regeringskonference være det bedste grundlag for en bred og velinformeret folkelig debat.
She too supported this applying to children under 16, arguing that those with learning difficulties and the disabled were particularly at risk.
Parlamentet godkendte et forslag om yderligere finansiel bistand til Kosovo i form af en direkte gavebistand på 30 mio. euro i 2001.
She was, however, concerned about some of the amendments which she felt were taking too "prescriptive" an approach in laying down detail which should be left to the Member States, taking account of their different judicial systems.
Beløbet skal stilles til rådighed for UNMJX.
It was, however, important to help the victims.
Parlamentets godkendelse var betinget af en styrkelse af den politiske kontrol og den demokratiske gennemskuelighed under gennemførelsen. nemførelsen.
In addition, she could not go along with some of the amendments proposed relating to the definition of child pornography but did urge support for another amendment relating to the compilation of a register of sex offenders, albeit in compliance with strict data protection rules.
Kommissionsformanden glædede sig lige ledes over, at der er sket store fremskridt på det sociale område under det svenske for mandskab.
For the Women's Committee, Christa PRETS (PES, A) agreed on the need to step up cooperation and indeed to raise awareness of the problem.
Samtidig afviste han bemærkninger om, at Kommissionen burde have afholdt sig fra at kritisere den økonomiske politik i Irland.
Also speaking for the Women's Committee, Marianne ERIKSSON (EUL/NGL, S) emphasised that the people concerned were not refugees but were facing real hardship and suffering.
Kommissionen har en for pligtelse til at udtale sig på dette område, og kriterierne herfor er ens for alle lande, fastslog han.
She could not, however, go along with some of the amendments related to the definition of pornography.

For the Greens, Patsy SÖRENSEN (Β) was another speaker to emphasise the situation of the victims and argued for victim support units to be set up.
Romano PRODI var positiv over for tanken om i fremtiden at finansiere EU-budgettet ved hjælp af en særlig EU-skat til erstatning af de såkaldte egne indtægter (der udgøres af visse toldafgifter samt en del af medlemsstaternes momsindtægter).
For the EPP-ED, Carlos COELHO (Ρ) underlined the need to combat this serious threat to society with an appropriate approach at EU level, leading to the introduction of laws to counter those involved.
Det vil samtidig være et opgør med "I want my money back"holdningen, tilføjede han med henvisning til den tidligere britiske premierminister.
It was, however, necessary to clarify the role of the police and the legal situation in each Member State.

For the PES, Anna TERRÓN i CUSÍ (E) too felt there was a clear need for action and
Kommissionsformanden understregede, at de europæiske borgere skal have et dristigt og stærkt projekt at forholde sig til, så de forstår vigtigheden af deres værdifællesskab med andre europæere.
Geneviève FRAISSE (EUL/NGL, F) stressed that trafficking should be treated as a crime and not simply as a misdemeanour.
Der ligger meget vigtige beslutninger forude, og konventet vil udgøre et meget væsentligt skridt i denne proces, sluttede Romano PRODI.
In addition incitement should be punishable and not just treated as fraud.
Parlamentet godkendte en betænkning, ud arbejdet af Gerardo GALEOTE QUECEDO (PPEDE, E) på vegne af Udvalget om Udenrigsanliggender, Menneskerettigheder, Fælles Sikkerhed og Forsvarspolitik.
She believed too that the state of vulnerability of the victim was another important matter.
Det fremhæver heri behovet for en yderligere
In addition the consent of the victim was not always relevant and should not be used as an argument to
forpligtelser, fra fremtidige topmøder og programmer.
Niall ANDREWS (UEN, Dublin) argued that the proposal represented a significant step forward and he welcomed the fact that something could be done at EU level.
Alle deltagere i ASEM-processen opfordres til at gå ind i en intensiv dialog om situationen i Mellemøsten og i Afghanistan samt for så vidt angår de interne etniske og religiøse konflikter i Asien.
Hans BLOKLAND (EDD, NL) considered it "appalling" that it was still necessary to discuss this matter. Sexual exploitation was a serious crime that required a tough approach, he stressed.
Parlamentet går ind for oprettelse af en EU-diplomatskole og en ordning med "overgange" mellem EUs delegationstjeneste og medlemsstaternes diplomatiske tjenester. Det ønsker, at EU skal oprette regionale delegationer, som skal varetage funktioner for flere nærliggende lande, samt styrke tilstedeværelsen i Sydøstasien, Golfområdet, Latinamerika og i Schweiz, som i 1999 var EUs næststørste handelspartner.
Furthermore, while he could also express sympathy with the idea of a victims' fund, this, he felt would go against the idea of subsidiarity as it was in fact a national responsibility.
Parlamentet går ind for en afbalanceret og omfattende tilgang til konfliktforebyggelse og krisestyring, f eks. ved at støtte den politiske dialog mellem hhv. Nord- og Sydkorea og Kina og Taiwan.
Bruno GOLLNISCH (IND, F) raised the issue of "unborn children being sent to their deaths in clinics".
Endelig opfordres Kommissionen til at foreslå en retlig ramme for regulering af for bindelserne mellem Parlamentet og delegationerne, bl.a. for at sikre, at delegationernes ledere giver møde for de tilsvarende instanser i Parlamentet, når de politiske omstændigheder tilsiger det.
Turning to the question of child pornography, once again, he emphasised the aim was to harmonise penal law and reach agreement on the definition relating to pornography on the Internet that was in line with the Council of Europe.
