Ugen i Parlamentet
ELECTION OF THE PRESIDENT
MEP 1991­1994 og igen fra 1999.
Valid votes Spoilt votes Absolute majority
Næstformand i Europa­Parlamentet (siden 1999).
He also looked to Mr Cox to involve national parliamentarians in the new process.
Mødet blev ledet af alderspræsidenten, Mário SOARES (PSE. Ρ).
He then thanked his EPP/ED supporters and in particular Group Leader Hans-Gert Poettering (D), before paying tribute to the work of outgoing President, Nicole FONTAINE (EPPED, F).
Han indledte med at udtrykke sin store anerkendelse af Nicole FONTAINEs indsats som formand for Europa­Parlamentet siden juli 1999.
He was, he said, as a Member from one of the smaller political groups and indeed one of the smallest states in the EU, proud to accept the honour of being elected President of the European Parliament.
De øvrige medlemmer gav udtryk for deres tilslutning hertil med langvarigt, stormende bifald.
Looking to the future, he emphasised the political priority of enlargement and reunifying Europe.
MEP siden 1979 Formand for Den Europæiske Venstrefløjs Fællesgruppe/Nordisk Grønne Venstre
Charles PASQUA (UEN, F) praised Pat Cox's sense of diplomacy, eloquence and
Den fungerende formand oplyste, at der var opstillet følgende kandidater til formands­valget:
He also challenged the new President to invite, not just one Member (David Martin) for a drink, but all 626 MEPs.
Inden valget havde de 5 formandskandidater mulighed for at tale i 5 minutter hver.
In 1992 he was elected to the Irish Parliament, the Dail Eireann, for the constituency of Cork South Central.
Jens-Peter BONDE, JuniBevægelsen Født den 27. marts 1948, Åbenrå
His moral challenge, he said, would be to emancipate himself from those who supported him in the elections.
MEP siden 1979 Medformand (1994­1997) og formand (1997­1999) for Nationernes Europa.
Two years later he was re-elected to the European Parliament, as an Independent Member and the first Vice-President of the ELDR Group (1994-1998).
Formand for Gruppen for Demokratiernes og Mangfoldighedens Europa siden 1999.
On behalf of his Group, Mr Cox's insistence on executive accountability of the European Commission before the Parliament, is said to have led to the unprecedented resignation of the European Commission in March 1999.
Håndværker kontra statsmand Jens­Peter BONDE fra JuniBevægelsen understregede, at EP bør fortsætte med at være flersproget, og at hvis vi ikke reformerer det nuværende system, så vil vi ende op med 2 eller 3 sprog.
The campaign, he said, had revealed the strengths and weaknesses of the candidates and, referring to comments in the press describing him as 'loquacious', he put this down to his Irish ancestry and his 'Blarney origins' where, as he put it, to kiss the Blarney stone ensured that visitors were endowed with the 'gift of the gab'.
Bonde fastslog, at den nye formand for Europa­Parlamentet bør være en håndværker mere end en statsmand, som bruger meget tid på at rejse rundt i verden.
But he emphasised that during the campaign, he was prepared to listen and learn.
Jens­Peter Bonde pegede på, at MEP'eme stadig ikke har adgang til de nødvendige arbejdsdokumenter.
His aim, he said, was to inject more politics into the workings of the Parliament, 'less voting, less technicality and more vitality'.
Det må ændres, så vi fremover får al information til rådighed, og så demokratiet ikke begraves i Rådet og i Kommissionen.
At a practical level, if elected, he promised to undertake to try to complete the reform process on a statute for MEPs, with a view to introducing more transparency, but recognised that this was a complex issue,
Vi ønsker fremover mere politik og mindre teknik i Europa­Parlamentet, idet politik er det vigtigste i EP. Det skotske labourmedlem David MARTIN (PSE, UK)
Born in Edinburgh, David Martin attended Liberton High School and Heriot-Watt University.
Ugen i Parlamentet
The Week possible.
Kandidaterne Gérard Onesta og Francis Wurtz meddelte, at de ikke ønskede at stille op til anden valgrunde.
His other concern with regard to raising the profile of Parliament was to provide Members with all relevant information and documentation.
Francis Wurtz tilsagde David Martin sin støtte i forbindelse med anden valgrunde.
As he put it, at present in the EU structure some 70% of legislation is passed by junior civil servants, 15% by ambassadors and the final 15% by ministers relying on civil servants.
pegede på nødvendigheden af at forbedre EP's image, idet Europa-Parlamentet har alvorlige imageproblemer.
Jens-Peter Bonde, 59, is Chair of the Europe of Democracies and Diversities (EDD) Group and a member of the Conference of Presidents.
Han fastslog, at såfremt han blev valgt til EP-formand, så ville han arbejde for, at vi kan være stolte af Europa-Parlamentet.
He sits on the Committee for Constitutional Affairs, is a member of the delegation for relations with Switzerland, Iceland and Norway, and is a substitute member of the delegation to the European Economic Area Joint Parliamentary Committee (EEA).
Jens-Peter Bonde besluttede efter et møde med sine støtter at stille op til anden valgrunde.
As well as being an EP representative on the delegation for relations with Australia and New Zealand, he also acts as a substitute member on the delegation to the EEA.
Ved anden valgrunde opnåede kandidaterne følgende stemmetal:
In the Party he was responsible for institutional questions for ten years between 1989 and 1999.
En ægte valgkamp Gérard ONESTA (Verts/ALE, F) glædede sig over, at der for en gangs skyld har været en ægte valgkamp forud for formandsvalget.
In his address Gérard ONESTA (Greens/EFA, F) expressed the view that a quality exchange of views had been achieved in Parliament, on which it was difficult to back track.
Samtidig mindede han om behovet for at øge betydningen af selve plenarmødet.
He said the aim of reform should be to achieve pluralism, respect and equality for each Member and to be accountable to 'all our citizens'.
Der skal jo helst være flere medlemmer i salen end der er personale i tolkekabinerne, sagde han.
Pointing out some of his political achievements, he reminded his fellow MEPs of the important work on GMOs which had been achieved under his auspices.
Afslutningsvis lovede han at være en fair oe konsensussøgende formand.
Coming from a small group, Mr Onesta said he knew what it meant to respect other people's views.
Jens-Peter BONDE, JuniBevægelsen: 76
It was the view of many, he said that without major changes Europe would "disappoint us greatly".
Der blev i alt afgivet 579 gyldige stemmer.
Last but not least, he said he was happy with his relationship with colleagues on the right.
Da ingen kandidat opnåede absolut flertal, 290 stemmer, blev det nødvendigt at foretage en ny valgrunde.
However, he expressed surprise and regret at what he saw as "the disappointing attitude of those who had campaigned on progressive themes in the first round, offering their vote in the second round to the candidate of the right".
Venstreorienteret europæisk politik Kommunisten Francis WURTZ (GUE/NGL, F) lovede at arbejde for en venstreorienteret europæisk politik, herunder at inddrage borgerne i lovgivningsprocessen.
Francis Wurtz, 54, is chair of the Confederate Group of the European United Left/Green Left and a member of the Conference of Presidents.
Der er behov for ændringer for at hindre udvidelsen i at løbe ud i sandet, sagde han.
He sits on the Budgets Committee, and is a substitute member of the Foreign Affairs Committee.
Endelig understregede han, at Pat Cox ikke skal regne med venstre fløjens stemmer i anden valgrunde.
He also represents Parliament in the ACP-EU Joint Parliamentary Assembly.
Ved tredje valgrunde opnåede kandidaterne følgende stemmetal:
Election of five Quaestors of Parliament

Der blev i alt afgivet 583 gyldige stemmer.
Ingo FRIEDRICH (EPPED, D) Catherine LALUMIERE (PES.
Da ingen kandidat havde opnået absolut flertal, 292 stemmer, blev det nødvendigt at foretage en ny valgrunde.
As to the aims of the President, Mr Aznar emphasised the need to counter terrorism, push forward the agenda
Pat Cox efter valget til EP-formand: -"Jeg er irsk europæer!" mand til at sikre, at Parlamentets synspunkter bliver godt repræsenteret på det Konvent, der skal forberede den kommende reform af EU-traktaten.
The Week for economic reforms, albeit with due consideration of the European social model, and to pursue the enlargement negotiations.
Efter at den irske liberale Pat COX tirsdag den 15. januar 2002 blev valgt til formand for Europa-Parlamentet i de næste 2 Vi år, holdt han en kort takketale, som ikke må forveksles med hans såkaldte "jomfrutale" - hvor han præsenterer mere konkrete planer for sin tid som EP-formand.
for the first time at the Barcelona Summit in a working session of the European Council and that the aim of the Presidency was to help negotiations to be completed by the end of this year. But he warned of the need for compromise, especially to solve tricky issues such as agricultural and regional policy and the budgetary framework.
Den finder først sted på et senere tidspunkt - sandsynligvis i februar.
An assessment would be made at the Seville meeting.
David MARTIN (PSE, E) takkede Mario SOARES (PSE, P) for en værdig ledelse af valghandlingen.
Other regions of importance were North America, Russia and Latin America.
Han takkede ligeledes samt lige medlemmer for deres beredvillighed til at lytte til ham under valgkampen.
The EU, he added, would be actively looking for a realistic solution to the problems now faced by the Argentinean economy.
Endelig mindede han den nyvalgte formand om, at de var blevet enige om at tage en drink sammen efter valget.
Neither did the Prime Minister neglect other areas such as the Middle East and the Mediterranean where, he said, Spain was working towards setting up a specialised bank to further development in North African countries.
Pat Cox bekræftede aftalen, men henviste til, at betalingsspørgsmålet ikke var blevet afklaret.
The overall aim was to tackle poverty and thus reduce one of the main causes of illegal immigration into Europe.
Budskab til udvidet EU Pat Cox understregede, at han var glad for valget til formand for Europa-Parlamentet, men at han ville forblive ydmyg. Han fast slog, at han er "irsk europæer", at han kom fra et lille EU-medlemsland og fra en af de små politiske grupper i EP, og det viser, at der er en plads til alle, og det er et vigtigt budskab til et udvidet EU med en række nye med lemslande.
Concluding, Mr Aznar committed himself to working for the success of the Convention, which will begin its work on mapping out the future of Europe on the 28 February in Brussels, emphasising that success could only be achieved through close cooperation between the institutions.
Gérard ONESTA (Verts/ALE, F) opfordrede formanden til at tage udstrakt hensyn til de mindre grupper i Parlamentet.
In tackling terrorism, he said he was looking for closer European cooperation, adding that Council would be responding to the European Parliament's call for a new initiative.
Francis WURTZ (GUE/NGL, F) håbede tilsvarende, at formanden vil arbejde i samarbejdets ånd.
This would result in an action plan.
Charles PASQUA (UEN, F) sagde, at han var mindst lige så glad og lettet over udfaldet som formanden selv.
As he put it, there could be no sanctuary for terrorists.
Problemet med hemmelige afstemninger er, at udfaldet er usikkert, og at man ikke ved, hvordan folk har stemt, fast slog han.
On a practical level, measures would include better cooperation between the police and security services.
Når man taler om drinks, er man derfor nødt til at lade tilbudet gælde samtlige medlemmer, sluttede han.
He also anticipated closer legal cooperation with the USA in dealing with the terrorist question, adding that this approach would involve complementary measures to develop asylum and immigration policies and to step up moves to root out drug smuggling and strengthen controls at the EU's external borders.
Cox pegede på, at EP bør udnytte sit potentiale og skabe demokratiet i Europa som modvægt til den teknologiske tankegang.
He noted that during the past decade, growth in Europe had been much lower than in the USA and there was, therefore, a need to tackle this deficiency, starting by modernising economies.
Han mindede om, at MEP'erne er politikere, som bør være pragmatiske og holde fødderne på jorden.
In this context, Spain's approach based on More Europe' would involve improving transport and communication networks, especially in the area of air transport and rail.
Men vi bør også drømme om stjernerne og fremtiden og have en "fantasi om Europa".
Another related priority was to open up the energy market and to improve interconnections.
Daniel COHN-BENDIT (Verts/ALE, F) mindede om den jødiske tradition for i en situation med kun to alternativer altid at vælge den tredje mulighed.
The integration of financial markets was another priority and here he said the emphasis would be on implementing the action plan as outlined in the Lamfalussy Report, once again with respect for the institutional balance.
Han opfordrede den nye formand til at fremme pluralismen i Europa og ikke gå på kompromis med de mest ekstreme højrekræfter i den koalition, der har støttet hans kandidatur.
Improving employment opportunities was also high on his agenda, and action here would concentrate on analysing rigidities in the labour market and tax or social security systems which could act as a barrier to creating jobs.
Karin RUS-JØRGENSEN (Venstre) gav ud tryk for den liberale gruppes begejstring over resultatet.
Continuing with this theme, he emphasised the importance of education in the context of promoting student mobility.
Vi vil savne Pat Cox i gruppen, men vi vil sammen arbejde for at få gjort vores drømme til virkelighed, sagde hun.
There was, therefore, a need to increase quality here.
Samtidig gav han udtryk for sin anerkendelse af de andre kandidater, især David Martin.
Turning to enlargement, he told the House that the candidate countries would participate
Enrique BARÓN CRESPO (PSE, E) glædede sig over, at valget var gennemført på ægte demokratisk vis.
In his address to MEPs, Commission President Romano PRODI paid tribute to the contribution of all those involved, including banks and European citizens, in the successful launch of the euro, which was now the main currency for 90% of transactions in the eurozone area.
Han opfordrede den nye for
The challenge was, now, he said to build on this success and work for a united Europe.
Jens-Peter BONDE (JuniBevægelsen) takkede Mario Soares for god ledelse af valg handlingen.
The euro was an important symbol of the visibility of the EU to citizens in an integration process which, he said, could now be seen as 'irreversible'.
Han lykønskede Pat Cox med at have vundet valget på demokratisk vis.
He pledged full cooperation to working with the Spanish Presidency for a completion of its programme and, while taking the view that the European
VALG AF KVÆSTORER
He welcomed the idea of a new bank to promote development in the Mediterranean.
Endelig opfordrede han formanden til at sikre, at mindretallenes synspunkter bliver ordent­ligt repræsenteret på konventet.
The challenge now was to create a correspondingly successful economic union which, he felt, had to be accompanied by social cohesion.
Frugtbart samarbejde Formanden for EU­Kommissionen, italiene­ren Romano PRODI var sikker på, at man også efter, at Pat Cox var valgt til EP­for­mand ville få et frugtbart samarbejde mellem EP og Kommissionen, som er afgørende for EU's måde at fungere på.
Here he said it was important for Member States to send powerful or well-known political personalities as delegates to the Convention, and in this respect, welcomed the nomination of Jacques SANTER as Luxembourg's representative.
Prodi under­stregede, at EU bør være åbent og gennem­skueligt, og at de 2 kommende hovedopgaver bliver
Otherwise, he supported policies to coordinate but not Tiarmonise' economic policy and encourage job creation through supporting small firms. On
Næstformandsvalget
Parliament as much as possible in its work.
Følgende medlemmer blev med akklamation valgt som næstformænd:
A number of criticisms and doubts, were however raised about the programme set out by the Prime Minister.
EP-debat om programmet for det spanske EU-formand-skab: Venlig men reserveret velkomst i EP
He singled out energy and postal services as other areas where progress was slow and called for measures which would make it easier to set up and run businesses.
Under Europa­Parlamentets debat om pro­grammet for det spanske EU­formandskab i 1. halvår 2002 var de fleste ordførere lidt af­ventende og reserverede over for det spanske formandskabs prioriteringer.
She pointed to the recent power failures in Spain as an example of what could go wrong, adding that liberalisation could lead to 'a dash for gas' and a dependence on imports from fragile political regions.
De fleste ord­førere ville således vente og se, hvad der konkret ville komme ud af Spaniens formand­skab i de kommende 6 måneder.
She advocated a policy based on 'wise' liberalisation to take account of energy efficiency. There should, she added, be a toughly regulated framework to take account
Fremme et mere velstående og dynamisk Europa, EU's udvidelse, Give EU en mere indflydelsesrig rolle på verdensscenen og Debatten om EU's fremtid (Konventet).
The Week of environmental protection, accompanied by action against those countries who were refusing to open up their own markets and who, at the same time, were keen to take advantage of liberalisation in other countries.
Den nye leder af den liberale gruppe Graham WATSON (ELDR, UK) understregede, at det spanske formandskab vil blive vurderet på sine handlinger.
Stephen HUGHES (PES, North East) took the view that it would be a mistake to concentrate only on structural labour reforms in pursuing the goals of the Lisbon process.
Han beklagede, at det spanske for mandskab negligerede værdien af forskellige regioner og kulturer i Europa, og han mente, at det var et meget centralistisk "castilliansk program" Aznar havde forelagt.
There was, he said, a need to take account of other measures, especially designed to increase the employment participation rate and he advocated increasing existing target figures, more policies to encourage older workers to remain in the labour market, and female employment.
Han så frem til en "kraftfuld debat" med det spanske formandskab i de kommende 6 måneder.
This could be assisted by improving affordable childcare opportunities.
"Mere Europa " Under sin forelæggelse lagde Aznar vægt på et bedre og mere snævert samarbejde mellem EU-institutionerne, hvor målet bLa. er en styrkelse af EU og et stærkere Europa-Parlament med øget medbestemmelse og mere demokratisk kontroL Aznar understregede, at "Mere Europa" er nøgleordet for det spanske EU-formandskab, og "Mere Europa" skal bidrage til at forbedre borgernes liv og velfærd.
There was also a need to take account of demographic change, particularly in pursuing a policy for pensions.
Hun støttede øget terroristbekæmpelse, men det må ikke ske på bekostning af frihedsrettighederne. Spanieren Salvador JOVE PERES (GUE/NGL, E) fra GUE-gruppen savnede også ord som miljø og fødevaresikkerhed i det spanske formandskabs program, og han tog afstand fra overdreven liberalisering og nedskæringer.
He felt a way should be found to bring policies directed against terrorism, under the umbrella of the CFSP.
Han mente endvidere, at "stabilitetspagten" bør gøres mere fleksibel, og at der bør lægges større vægt på økonomisk samhørighed.
The introduction of the currency had also, he said, resulted in a drain on investments in Europe with investors seeking better returns in the USA.
Afbalanceret program Formanden for EU-Kommissionen, italieneren Romano PRODI, glædede sig over ind førelsen af euroen, som er nøgleelementet i en fælles europæisk identitet.
That was why economic reform was so important since, he warned, if it was not achieved, then economic recovery would start in the USA, enabling it to continue to grow ahead of Europe.
Prodi støttede sloganet for det spanske formandskab - "Mere Europa" - og han mente, at programmet for det spanske formandskab var ligevægtigt og afbalanceret.
It was, he said, vital to ensure that Europe's social model was financially viable.
Prodi mindede om, at Kommissionen netop havde vedtaget sin rapport om "Lissabon-processen", som er nøglen til den "europæiske sociale model".
For enlargement to be completed by the end of the year, this had to be based on accepting the principle of 'differentiation' or each candidate country being allowed to join when it was ready, acceptance of the acquis or existing EU legislation and the agenda 2000 Berlin financial framework.
Ireren Gerard COLLINS (UEN, IRL) støttede målsætningen om øget terroristbekæmpelse med bLa. øget politisamarbejde og en fælles indsats mod hvidvaskning af penge og beslaglæggelse af terroristorganisationers penge.
As to 'More Europe' this did not mean an end to the nation states, but rather pursuing the integration process with due respect for diversity and subsidiarity or decision making devolved to the most appropriate level.
Betydningsfulde personligheder Under ordførerrunden sagde den tyske kristelige demokrat Hans-Gert POETTERING (PPE-DE, D), at det var nødvendigt med mere gennemsigtighed og åbenhed i Rådet.
For James ELLES (EPPED, South East) the credibility of EU institutions was at stake.
Han støttede det spanske formandskabs prioritering af kampen mod terrorisme, men samtidig skal vi beskytte retsstaten og demokratiet.
Although he acknowledged progress made in recent years, it was, he said, crucial to move towards further reforms and he asked the Commission to produce a document outlining the present situation and reminded the new President of the need to reform Parliament's working methods, although he acknowledged it was unrealistic to expect this in 24 hours.
Poettering lagde endvidere vægt på, at alle regeringer sender betydningsfulde personligheder til Konventet, hvor man skal debattere EU's fremtid.
As for Council, he noted its continuing reputation for taking decisions behind closed doors and looked to the Spanish Presidency to ensure that Parliament was consulted on any proposed changes here.
