Nogle konventsmedlemmer nævnte også andre emner, som f.eks. spørgsmålet om finansieringen af aktiviteter i forbindelse med udenrigs- og sikkerhedspolitikken, herunder den fælles sikkerheds- og forsvarspolitik, og nogle af konventsmedlemmerne foreslog, at de skal finansieres inden for EU-budgettets rammer.
Other subjects were also raised by certain members of the Convention, such as the question of funding activities linked to the Common Foreign and Security Policy, including the Common Security and Defence Policy; some members proposed that it should fall within the scope of the Union's budget.
Andre elementer i forbindelse med den fælles sikkerheds- og forsvarspolitik blev også nævnt, f.eks. oprettelsen af en sikkerheds- og forsvarsunion.
Other matters relating to the Common Security and Defence Policy were also raised, such as the setting up of a Security and Defence Union.

Some members of the Convention also proposed including in the provisions on external action a stronger presence of national parliaments than in the area of defence.
En række konventsmedlemmer slog til lyd for, at den fælles handelspolitik skal gøres mere effektiv, og at der skal kunne træffes afgørelser med kvalificeret flertal på alle områder, herunder indgåelse af alle aftaler, mens andre medlemmer mente, at handel med kulturelle og audiovisuelle tjenesteydelser fortsat skal henhøre under Unionens og medlemsstaternes delte kompetence, og at forhandlingerne om sådanne aftaler derfor fortsat forudsætter tilslutning fra medlemsstaterne.
A certain number of members of the Convention argued for the need for efficiency in the common commercial policy and the need to be able to adopt decisions by qualified majority in all areas, including the conclusion of all agreements, while some other members were of the view that trade in cultural and audiovisual services should continue to fall within the shared competence of the Union and Member States and that the negotiation of such agreements should thus continue to require the common accord of Member States.
Flere medlemmer mente, at Europa-Parlamentets rolle på det handelspolitiske område skal styrkes yderligere, og anførte, at både forhandlingsmandater og indgåelse af aftaler skal have Europa-Parlamentets samtykke.
Several members considered that the role of the European Parliament should be further reinforced in the field of trade policy and argued that both negotiation mandates and the conclusion of agreements should be subject to the assent of the European Parliament.

Some also underlined the need to keep the European Parliament fully informed throughout the negotiation process.
Udviklingssamarbejde og humanitær bistand
Development cooperation and humanitarian aid
I forbindelse med artiklerne om udviklingssamarbejde fandt flere konventsmedlemmer det vigtigt, at de specifikke mål om fattigdomsbekæmpelse og endelig fattigdomsudryddelse omhandles i det specifikke underkapitel, der vedrører udviklingssamarbejde.
In relation to the articles on development cooperation, several members of the Convention considered it essential that the specific objectives of poverty reduction, and eventually eradication, be referred to in the specific sub-chapter devoted to development cooperation.

Nogle medlemmer tog forbehold med hensyn til forslaget om at oprette et frivilligt humanitært fredskorps som foreslået i artikel 30 om humanitær bistand og henviste til det vanskelige i at yde bistand på dette område og behovet for uddannet personale.
Some members expressed reservations about the proposal to establish a voluntary humanitarian peace corps, as suggested in Article 30 on humanitarian aid, and referred to the difficulty of the task of delivery of assistance in this field and the need for trained staff.
Nogle få nævnte artiklerne om restriktive foranstaltninger.
The articles on restrictive measures were raised by few.
Nogle understregede behovet for at sikre overholdelse af den enkeltes grundlæggende rettigheder og af folkeretten og rejste spørgsmålet om domstolskontrol.
Some underlined the need to ensure respect for fundamental rights of individuals and compliance with internal law and raised the issue of jurisdictional control by the Court of Justice.
Andre foreslog at udvide artiklens anvendelsesområde til at omfatte visumrestriktioner.
Others suggested to widen the scope of the article to include visa restrictions.

Med hensyn til Unionens eksterne kompetence foreslog nogle konventsmedlemmer, at det i forfatningen udtrykkeligt anføres, at Unionen har kompetence til at indgå en international aftale, for så vidt denne aftale bidrager til udøvelsen af en intern kompetence.
On the external competence of the Union, some members of the Convention proposed to spell out in the Constitution that the Union is competent to conclude an international agreement each time this agreement contributes to the exercise of an internal competence.
Flere medlemmer gik ind for at give Kommissionen mandat til at forhandle internationale aftaler bortset fra aftaler, der udelukkende vedrører FUSP-spørgsmål, mens andre medlemmer gik ind for at give Kommissionen mandat til at forhandle alle aftaler, selv aftaler vedrørende FUSP.
Several members pleaded in favour of giving the Commission the mandate to negotiate international agreements except for agreement dealing exclusively with CFSP matters while other members were in favour of giving to the Commission the mandate to negotiate all agreements even those relating to CFSP.

As regards the relations of the Union with international organisations, some considered that the Union should strive to become a member of international organisations, starting with the IFIs.
Nogle gik ind for at udforme mere detaljerede bestemmelser om forbindelserne med internationale organisationer, og nogle foreslog, at den liste over organisationer, der findes i artikel 35, bør omfatte NATO.
Some argued for developing in further detail the provisions on the relations with international organisations, and certain suggested that the list of organisations referred to in Article 35 should include NATO.
For så vidt angår solidaritetsbestemmelsen var mange konventsmedlemmer meget tilfredse med, at denne bestemmelse er indsat i forfatningen som et meget vigtigt udtryk for solidaritet mellem medlemsstaterne og borgerne. Nogle konventsmedlemmer lagde i den forbindelse vægt på en udvidelse af en sådan bestemmelses rækkevidde til at omfatte andre trusler eller farer som f.eks. menneske- eller naturskabte naturkatastrofer.
Many members of the Convention warmly welcomed the inclusion of the solidarity clause in the Constitution as a key expression of solidarity between Member States and citizens.
Næstformanden præciserede, at der et andet sted i forfatningen (art. 15) findes en bestemmelse om beskyttelse mod katastrofer blandt understøttende foranstaltninger.
The Vice-President pointed out that there was a provision in the Constitution (Article 15) for protection against disasters among the support measures.

He further noted a general consensus on the creation of an EU Minister of Foreign Affairs, although views on the implications of this institutional change diverged.
Dette gælder navnlig initiativretten på FUSP-området.

Han anførte, at ministerens holdning og hans forbindelse til Rådet og Kommissionen skal fastlægges mere i detaljer.
He indicated that the position of the Minister and his relationship with the Council and the Commission needed to be worked out in more detail.
Med hensyn til beslutningstagning på FUSP-området noterede han sig, at der på den ene side er et ønske om øget anvendelse af kvalificeret flertal og på den anden side en modvilje mod at gå i den retning.

Med hensyn til sikkerheds- og forsvarspolitikken noterede han sig, at konventet støtter mange forslag fra præsidiet som f.eks. inddragelse af denne politik som en integrerende del af FUSP, opdateringen af Petersberg-opgaverne og oprettelsen af et agentur, mens synspunkterne vedrørende andre spørgsmål såsom gensidigt forsvar og forskellige former for fleksibilitet ikke er helt sammenfaldende.
On security and defence policy, he noted that the Convention supported many proposals by the Praesidium, such as the inclusion of this policy as integral part of CFSP, the update of the Petersberg tasks and the creation of an Agency, while on other issues, such as mutual defence and different forms of flexibility, views were not entirely convergent.

Formanden præsenterede kort de dokumenter, som konventsmedlemmerne havde fået forelagt i dagene inden plenarmødet.
The Chairman briefly presented the documents which had been submitted to Convention members during the days preceding the plenary session.
For første gang har konventsmedlemmerne et samlet overblik over udkastet til forfatning med del I, II, III og IV samt præamblen.
For the first time, Convention members had an overview of the draft Constitution with its Parts I, II, III and IV and the Preamble.
Formanden oplyste, at præsidiet har foretaget en omhyggelig gennemgang og visse ændringer af de oprindelige tekster for at tage hensyn til de ændringsforslag, som konventsmedlemmerne har indgivet.
The Chairman stated that the Praesidium had given a thorough reading to the texts initially submitted and made a number of amendments to them in order to take account of the amendments tabled by Convention members.
Formanden beskrev de vigtigste ændringer, der var foretaget i artiklerne.
The Chairman described the main changes made to the texts of the Articles.
For så vidt angår institutionerne er teksten ikke blevet ændret, idet præsidiet her mente, at det i betragtning af antallet og navnlig arten af konventsmedlemmernes bemærkninger til teksten vil være hensigtsmæssigt at bruge mere tid på at drøfte dette punkt.
As regards the Institutions, the text had not been amended, the Praesidium having considered that, given the number and above all the nature of the comments made by Convention members on the text, further time for reflection on this matter was required.
Herefter forelagde formanden konventets arbejdsprogram for de kommende uger.
The Chairman then presented the Convention work programme for the next few weeks.
For at indsamle så mange elementer som muligt til vurdering af de institutionelle spørgsmål havde præsidiet besluttet, at formanden og de to næstformænd skulle høre hver enkelt af konventets grupperinger onsdag den 4. juni.
In order to obtain maximum data for the evaluation of institutional issues, the Praesidium agreed that the Chairman and the two Vice-Chairmen would consult each of the component groups of the Convention on Wednesday 4 June.
Plenarmødet den 5.-6. juni skulle koncentreres om drøftelsen af forfatningens del I (med undtagelse af de institutionelle spørgsmål) for at give præsidiet de nødvendige indikationer med henblik på eventuelle senere ændringer.
The plenary session on 5 and 6 June would be devoted to the debate on Part I of the Constitution (with the exception of institutional issues) so as to provide the Praesidium with the necessary pointers for any subsequent amendments.
DEBAT OM TEKSTUDKASTENE VEDRØRENDE FORSTÆRKET SAMARBEJDE (CONV 723/03)
DEBATE ON THE DRAFT TEXTS ON ENHANCED COOPERATION (CONV 723/03)
Formanden mindede om de vigtigste særtræk ved mekanismen vedrørende forstærket samarbejde, der blev oprettet ved Amsterdamtraktaten og ændret ved Nicetraktaten, men som endnu aldrig er brugt.
The Chairman gave a reminder of the principal features of the enhanced cooperation mechanism created by the Treaty of Amsterdam and amended by the Treaty of Nice, but which had yet to be used.
Der er tale om artikel 32b, der er blevet til artikel I-43 efter den nye nummerering.
This involves Article 32b (32 ter in French), which has become Article I-43 under the new numbering system.
Andre bestemmelser findes i forfatningens del III, i artikel I-P, der er blevet til artikel III-318 - III-325 efter den nye nummerering.
Other provisions appear in Part III of the Constitution, in Articles I to P, which have become Articles III-318 to III-325 under the new numbering system.
Præsidiet har ligeledes foreslået nogle substansændringer, der bl.a. tager sigte på at lette proceduren for iværksættelse af et forstærket samarbejde og styrke Kommissionens rolle i forvaltningen af dette samarbejde.
The Praesidium also proposed a number of substantive amendments aimed in particular at facilitating the procedure for activating enhanced cooperation and at strengthening the Commission's role in the management of such cooperation.
Betingelsen, hvorefter et forstærket samarbejde kun bør iværksættes som en sidste udvej, er i nogen grad blevet præciseret, og minimumstærsklen for deltagelse er blevet fastsat til en tredjedel af medlemsstaterne, hvilket svarer til ånden i Nicetraktaten, der fastsatte den til otte medlemsstater.
The last resort condition has been somewhat clarified, while the minimum threshold for participation has been set at one third of the Member States, which is in keeping with the spirit of the Treaty of Nice, which had set it at eight Member States.
Endvidere tjener henvisningen til eventuelle objektive betingelser for deltagelse til at begrænse Kommissionens eller Rådets skønsbeføjelse for så vidt angår anmodninger fra medlemsstater, der forelægges dem med henblik på deltagelse i et forstærket samarbejde, efter at dette er oprettet, hvilket i højere grad er i overensstemmelse med princippet om åbenhed.
Further, the reference to possible objective conditions for participation tends to restrict the discretionary power of the Commission or the Council in relation to Member States' requests to them to participate in enhanced cooperation after its creation, which is more in line with the principle of openness.
Blandt de modtagne ændringsforslag foreslog formanden ikke at medtage et forslag fra et konventsmedlem om at afskaffe denne mekanisme.
Among the amendments received, the Chairman suggested that the one proposed by a Convention member to abolish the mechanism should not be adopted.
Han understregede i den forbindelse, hvad der lå til grund for oprettelsen af en sådan mekanisme, nemlig ønsket om at skabe et instrument, der kunne vise sig nyttigt på lang sigt, navnlig i betragtning af de stadig større forskelle mellem medlemsstaterne i et udvidet EU.
In this connection, he stressed the reasons which had prompted the creation of such a mechanism, i.e. to set up an instrument which could prove useful in the long term, in particular to take account of the increasingly heterogeneous nature of the Member States in an enlarged Union.
Denne mekanisme bør gøre det muligt for en gruppe medlemsstater at handle inden for snarere end uden for Unionens rammer, hvilket vil være i Unionens og alle dens medlemsstaters interesse.
The mechanism should allow a group of Member States to act within the Union framework rather than outside, which would be in the interests of the Union and of all its Member States.
Han mindede i den forbindelse om den åbne og inklusive karakter af det forstærkede samarbejde, der er tænkt som et instrument til gradvis integration.
He pointed here to the open and inclusive nature of enhanced cooperation, which had been designed as an instrument of progressive integration.
Med hensyn til de øvrige ændringsforslag sigter nogle på at lette anvendelsen af forstærket samarbejde, bl.a. ved at sænke minimumstærsklen for deltagelse.
As regards the other amendments, some were aimed at facilitating recourse to enhanced cooperation, especially by lowering the minimum threshold for participation.
Andre går derimod ud på at vende tilbage til teksterne i Nicetraktaten.
Others, on the other hand, were aimed at returning to the texts of the Treaty of Nice.
Efter dagens debat får konventsmedlemmerne mulighed for at indgive andre ændringsforslag, hvorefter sekretariatet udarbejder en analytisk oversigt, og præsidiet foretager den endelige udformning af teksterne.
In the light of today's discussions, Convention members will have the opportunity to submit other amendments, the Secretariat will draw up a summary sheet, and then the Praesidium will produce the final version of the texts.
Som helhed blev artikeludkastene positivt modtaget (undtagen af ét konventsmedlem, der foreslår at udelade samtlige bestemmelser om forstærket samarbejde), navnlig for så vidt angår den redaktionelle forenkling af artiklerne.
The draft Articles were generally welcomed, (except for one Convention member who proposed that all provisions relating to enhanced cooperation be deleted), particularly as regards their simplified drafting.
Argumentet om, at man skal fremme udviklingen af samarbejde mellem visse medlemsstater inden for snarere end uden for Unionens rammer blev hyppigt fremført.
The argument that the development of cooperation between certain Member States should be promoted within a Union framework rather than outside it was frequently advanced.
Et andet argument til fordel for dette instrument er dets inklusive karakter, selv om enkelte konventsmedlemmer insisterede på, at medlemsstaterne frit skal kunne vælge, om de vil deltage eller ej, og at de eventuelt skal kunne trække sig ud.
Another argument in favour of this instrument was its inclusive nature, even though some Convention members stressed Member States' freedom of choice as to whether or not to participate and even to withdraw.
Adskillige konventsmedlemmer understregede imidlertid, at det forstærkede samarbejde ikke bør udgøre et alternativ til den generelle anvendelse af kvalificeret flertal, navnlig på FUSP-området, der fortsat er en prioritet.
However, many Convention members stressed that enhanced cooperation should not be an alternative to general use of qualified majority voting, particularly as regards the CFSP, which remained a priority.
Der blev rejst flere substansspørgsmål.
Several questions were raised as to substance.
Minimumstærskel for deltagelse:
Minimum threshold for participation:
Der var forskellige holdninger til dette emne.
Differing views were voiced on this subject.
Nogle støttede præsidiets forslag om at fastsætte den til en tredjedel, andre foreslog at sænke denne tærskel yderligere, navnlig på FUSP-området, mens andre foreslog at vende tilbage til det faste tal på otte medlemsstater som i Nicetraktaten, og atter andre foreslog at forhøje tærsklen til halvdelen af medlemsstaterne.
Some supported the Praesidium's proposal that it be set at one third, others suggested lowering the threshold further, particularly in the area of the ESDP, yet others wanted a return to a fixed number of eight Member States on the model of the Nice Treaty, while yet others suggested raising the threshold to half of the Member States.
Et konventsmedlem foreslog ikke at fastsætte nogen tærskel, idet den bør fastsættes i hvert enkelt tilfælde, alt efter hvilke områder der er tale om, efter samme procedure som den oprindelige bemyndigelsesprocedure.
One Convention member suggested that no threshold be set and that a decision be taken in each individual case, depending on the areas concerned, by the same procedure as the initial authorisation procedure.
Den oprindelige bemyndigelsesprocedure:
Initial authorisation procedure:
Flere konventsmedlemmer gik ind for at gøre den oprindelige bemyndigelsesprocedure mere smidig og styrke Kommissionens rolle.
Several Convention members were in favour of relaxing the initial authorisation procedure and of strengthening the Commission's role.
