De mente, at det måtte være tilstrækkeligt at udbygge Eurojust.
They considered a development of Eurojust to be sufficient.
Mange medlemmer støttede imidlertid tanken om en europæisk anklagemyndighed, og flere af dem ønskede, at anklagemyndighedens oprettelse indskrives som en forpligtelse i forfatningen, og at den endog kan oprettes med kvalificeret flertal (nogle medlemmer foretrak dog udvidet kvalificeret flertal).
A large number of members did, however, express support for the idea of a European Public Prosecutor's Office, and in several cases requested that the creation of the Office should be entered as an obligation arising from the Constitution, or that its establishment should be enacted by a qualified majority (augmented, for some members).
Nogle medlemmer foreslog, at anklagemyndigheden kun skulle retsforfølge svig til skade for Unionens finansielle interesser.
Some members proposed limiting this body to the prosecution of cases of fraud against the Union's financial interests.
Andre var derimod tilfredse med den nuværende affattelse, som giver lovgiveren stor frihed.
Others, however, voiced their satisfaction with the present wording, which leaves the legislator extensive freedom.
Formanden for Arbejdsgruppe X, John Bruton, udtrykte i sine konklusioner først og fremmest tilfredshed med medlemmernes generelt positive og konstruktive modtagelse af præsidiets forslag.
In his conclusions, Mr Bruton, the Chairman of Working Group X, first expressed his satisfaction with members' generally positive and constructive reception of the Praesidium's proposals.
Han medgav, at det stadig kan drøftes, hvor det vil være bedst at placere bestemmelserne om Det Europæiske Råd og de nationale parlamenter, herunder deres rolle i evalueringsmekanismerne, men gjorde opmærksom på, at bestemmelserne i substansen er en del af det kompromis, gruppen er nået frem til. Formanden bekræftede princippet om, at en gruppe medlemsstater får initiativret, samt tærsklen på en fjerdedel, som han anså for at være "rimelig", men erkendte, at det skal undersøges, hvordan den fælles beslutningsprocedure kan fungere i den sammenhæng.
He then pointed out that although the right place for the provisions on the European Council and the national parliaments - including their roles in the evaluation mechanisms – could still be discussed, these provisions were in substance part of the compromise reached by the Working Group.
Han understregede endvidere, at formålet med artikel 14, stk. 3, ikke er en omfattende harmonisering af den materielle civilret, men at præsidiet har villet foreslå en kompromisløsning, der ville gøre det muligt at komme videre på et ganske bestemt område, dvs. forældreansvar.
He also stressed that the aim of Article 14(3) was not to contemplate an extensive harmonisation of substantive civil law, but rather what the Praesidium wanted in particular to propose was a compromise formula that would allow better progress to be made on the specific subject of parental responsibility.
Som svar på kritikken af artiklen om
In answer to the criticisms levelled at the Article on criminal procedure, Mr Bruton
strafferetspleje gjorde formanden opmærksom på, at denne artikel under alle omstændigheder kun tager sigte på minimumsregler, og at gruppens høring af eksperter har vist, at der i praksis er et særligt behov for at foretage en indbyrdes tilnærmelse af retsplejereglerne, så man bedre kan bekæmpe grænseoverskridende kriminalitet.
pointed out that in any case this Article was only aimed at minimum rules, and that the Group's hearing of experts had revealed a specific practical need for approximation of procedural rules in order to improve the fight against cross-border crime.
Han fandt desuden, at gradvis udarbejdelse af minimumsregler på dette område vil betyde, at tanken om en europæisk anklagemyndighed med tiden vil vise sig at være mindre kontroversiel end i dag. Han tilføjede, at den middelvej, præsidiet foreslår, dvs. blot at etablere et valgfrit retsgrundlag (der kræver enstemmighed), forekommer ham at være den rette vej på baggrund af debatten.
He furthermore considered that a gradual formulation of minimum rules in this area might one day render the idea of a European Public Prosecutor less controversial than at present; he added that in the light of the debate, the middle course proposed by the Praesidium to create a simple, optional legal basis, exercised by unanimity seemed to him the right approach.
Formanden var tilfreds med den klare støtte til artiklen om materiel strafferet, idet han dog nøje noterede sig, at nogle ønsker en bedre begrænsning af rækkevidden af andet led. Præsidiet vil behandle de mulige løsninger.
Mr Bruton viewed with satisfaction the clear support for the Article on substantive criminal law, while noting with attention the concerns voiced by those who wanted better delimitation of the scope of the second indent; the Praesidium would have to examine possible solutions.
Formanden udtrykte sin tilfredshed med, at næsten alle regeringsrepræsentanterne havde deltaget meget aktivt og konstruktivt i debatten.
In conclusion, Mr Bruton especially welcomed the fact that nearly all the Government representatives had made a particularly active and constructive contribution to the debate.
Fremlæggelse af artikeludkast
Presentation of draft Articles
Næstformand Dehaene fremlagde udkast til artikel 33-37, der tager sigte på at skabe større gennemsigtighed i Unionens aktiviteter og bringe borgerne nærmere på Unionen ved at indføre en dialog mellem institutionerne og civilsamfundet.
Vice-Chairman Dehaene presented draft Articles 33 to 37 which were intended to be part of an effort to achieve greater transparency regarding the Union's activities and would be aimed at bringing citizens closer to the Union by establishing a dialogue between the institutions and civil society.
Næstformand Dehaene fremlagde et udkast til artikel 42 om Unionen og dens nærområder.
Vice-Chairman Dehaene presented draft Article 42 on the Union and its immediate environment.
Han understregede, at der er tale om en nyskabende artikel, der tager sigte på at fastsætte en ramme om de fremtidige forbindelser mellem Unionen og dens nabolande baseret på bilaterale aftaler.
He stressed the innovative nature of this Article aimed at establishing a framework for the Union's future relations with its neighbouring countries based on bilateral agreements.
Medlemskab af Unionen samt almindelige og afsluttende bestemmelser
Union membership and the general and final provisions
Næstformand Dehaene fremlagde bestemmelser om medlemskab af Unionen, der skal indsættes i afsnit X i del II i forfatningen, og bestemmelser til del III, der indeholder de almindelige og afsluttende bestemmelser.
Vice-Chairman Dehaene presented the provisions relating to Title X of Part Two of the Constitution on Union membership and those of Part Three relating to the general and final provisions.
Han henledte især opmærksomheden på afsnit X, eftersom det omhandler alt, hvad der vedrører medlemskab af Unionen: kriterierne for medlemskab og proceduren for tiltrædelse af Unionen, grundene til suspension af en medlemsstats rettigheder, som de følger af forfatningen, og proceduren for en medlemsstats frivillige udtræden af Unionen.
He drew attention to the importance of Title X as it covered all that concerned the status of membership of the Union, i.e. the conditions for eligibility and the procedure for becoming a member of the Union, the grounds for suspending the rights of a Member State deriving from the Constitution and the procedure for the voluntary withdrawal of a Member State from the Union.
Han tilføjede, at dette afsnit indeholder to vigtige nyheder i forhold til de nuværende traktater: der fastsættes udtrykkeligt kriterier for medlemskab af Unionen, og der gives mulighed for et medlems frivillige udtræden af Unionen.
He added that this title included two major novelties in relation to the current Treaties: it expressly laid down the conditions for eligibility for membership of the Union and the possibility of voluntary withdrawal by a Member State.
Næstformanden omtalte herefter bestemmelserne i del III, hvor man til dels har overtaget de almindelige og afsluttende bestemmelser fra de nuværende traktater, men samtidig har foretaget nogle ændringer i visse af dem og tilføjet to nye bestemmelser om ophævelse af de nuværende traktater og om, at den nye enhed "Den Europæiske Union" skal træde i stedet for Det Europæiske Fællesskab og den tidligere Europæiske Union.
The Vice-Chairman then referred to the provisions of Part Three, which in part incorporated the general and final provisions of the current Treaties, while making a number of amendments in a few of them, and which added new provisions on the repeal of the current Treaties and on the succession of the new entity "European Union" to the European Community and to the former European Union.
Sidstnævnte tilføjelse i traktaten afspejler konventets ønske om, at forfatningen ikke blot ændrer de nuværende traktater, men træder i stedet for dem.
The latter addition expressed the Convention's wish in the Treaty that the Constitution should not confine itself to amending the current Treaties, but that it should replace them.
Næstformanden oplyste, at de på mødet fremlagte artikler vil blive behandlet af konventet på plenarmødet den 24.-25. april, og at fristen for indsendelse af ændringsforslag er den 11. april, så de kan komme med i sekretariatets analyse.
The Vice-Chairman pointed out that the Articles presented that day would be examined by the Convention at its plenary session on 24 and 25 April and that the deadline for submitting amendments would be 11 April, so that account could be taken of them in the Secretariat's analytical role.
Endelig oplyste næstformanden deltagerne om, at præsidiet efter nærmere overvejelser har besluttet ikke at forelægge noget tekstudkast vedrørende den åbne koordinationsmetode.
Finally, the Vice-Chairman informed the plenary session that, upon reflection, the Praesidium had decided not to submit a draft text on the open method of coordination.
Præsidiet er overbevist om, at koordinationen af de nationale politikker allerede er omfattet af andre artikler, især på området "understøttende handling", jf. udkastet til artikel 15.
The Praesidium was convinced that there was already provision for the coordination of national policies, in particular in the areas for supporting action, as reflected in draft Article 15.
Præsidiet finder, at en ny generel artikel om den åbne koordinationsmetode ikke vil styrke, men derimod svække muligheden for at anvende den, og at en sådan artikel vil skabe forvirring i forbindelse med afgrænsningen af kompetencen mellem Unionen og medlemsstaterne.
The Praesidium feared that a new general article on that method might weaken rather than strengthen the possibility of having recourse to it and that such an article might introduce some confusion as regards the delimitation of competences between the Union and the Member States.
Næstformanden oplyste, at præsidiet dog stiller sig åbent til eventuelle forslag fra konventsmedlemmerne.
The Vice-Chairman stated that the Praesidium was nevertheless amenable to any suggestions from Convention members.
Jean-Luc Dehaene åbnede debatten og gjorde opmærksom på, at præsidiet først skal tilpasse udkastet til artikel 38-40 i lyset af de igangværende drøftelser og resultaterne af arbejdet i den diskussionskreds om budgetproceduren, som ledes af Henning Christophersen, og som forventedes at afslutte sit arbejde samme eftermiddag.
Mr Dehaene opened the debate by giving a reminder that the Praesidium still had to adapt draft Articles 38 to 40 in the light of ongoing discussions and of the outcome of the discussion circle on the budgetary procedure chaired by Mr Christophersen, which would be completing its work that same afternoon.
Han meddelte, at der med Iñigo Méndez de Vigo som leder er oprettet en ny diskussionskreds om egne indtægter (mandatet, der er godkendt af præsidiet, blev omdelt på mødet, jf. dok. CONV 654/03).
He announced the creation of a new discussion circle on own resources chaired by Mr Méndez de Vigo (the mandate for which, as approved by the Praesidium, was distributed during the meeting, see CONV 654/03).
Jean-Luc Dehaene gennemgik dernæst de 69 indkomne ændringsforslag, som udtrykker meget forskellige indbyrdes holdninger. Han var dog i stand til at drage følgende konklusioner: nu l l
Mr Dehaene then reviewed the 69 amendments submitted which expressed very divergent positions. He nevertheless drew a number of conclusions:
Status over drøftelserne i diskussionskredsen om budgetproceduren
Progress report on the circle on the budgetary procedure
Inden Jean-Luc Dehaene åbnede debatten, bad han Henning Christophersen redegøre for, hvor langt man var kommet i diskussionskredsen om budgetproceduren.
Before opening the debate, Mr Dehaene asked Mr Christophersen to take stock of the progress made in the discussion circle on the budgetary procedure.
Henning Christophersen oplyste, at der efterhånden synes at være konsensus i kredsen om at indsætte de finansielle overslag i forfatningen, således at de bliver juridisk bindende.
Mr Christophersen pointed out that there appeared to be a consensus within the circle on the inclusion in the Constitution of the financial perspective, which would thus become legally binding.
Det vil gøre det muligt at forenkle budgetproceduren, så man kan afskaffe de proceduremæssige forskelle mellem obligatoriske udgifter (OU) og ikkeobligatoriske udgifter (IOU).
This would help to simplify the budgetary procedure, implying in particular the removal of procedural differences between compulsory expenditure (CE) and non-compulsory expenditure (NCE).
Han oplyste endvidere, at det under debatten i kredsen blev klart, at der skal tages hensyn til tre forskellige niveauer, når man skal drøfte de nærmere regler for opførelse af den "finansielle ramme" i forfatningen (kredsen foreslår i øvrigt at ændre overslagenes betegnelse til "flerårig finansiel ramme").
He then pointed out that the debate within the circle had shown that there were three levels to be taken into account when dealing with the concrete arrangements for the inclusion of the "financial framework" (the circle was also proposing that the name of the perspective be changed to "multiannual financial framework") in the Constitution.
Det skal afgøres, hvilke bestemmelser vedrørende denne "flerårige finansielle ramme" der skal med i forfatningens del I, hvilke bestemmelser der skal indsættes i del II, og endelig hvad der skal fastsættes i den afledte ret i form af retsakter, der vedtages med hjemmel i forfatningen.
The question was which provisions relating to the "multiannual framework" should be included in Part One of the Constitution, and which in Part Two and, finally, what should be left to the area of secondary legislation in the form of legal acts to be adopted on the basis of the Constitution.
De fleste af medlemmerne finder, at forfatningens del I skal indeholde en særlig artikel om den "finansielle ramme", der bør indeholde følgende elementer: nu l l
The Council, meeting at the highest political level, would adopt by a superqualified majority, in the event that such a majority were defined in the Constitution in a broader context, or by a qualified majority, the law on the multiannual financial framework. It would act following the European Parliament's assent.
Forfatningens del II bør indeholde: nu l l
This Group has not yet reached a conclusion regarding the annual procedure.
Kredsen er endnu ikke nået til enighed om, hvilken procedure man skal følge, hvis de to institutioner ikke når til enighed.
The circle was still undecided as to the procedure to be adopted in a situation where there was no agreement between the two institutions.
For så vidt angår proceduren for vedtagelse af ordningen med egne indtægter, ønskede nogle konventsmedlemmer at ændre proceduren, medens andre ville bibeholde den, som den er.
Regarding the procedure for adopting the own resources system, the opinions voiced by the Convention members were divided between those wishing to change the procedure and those wishing to keep it as it stood.
En hel del konventsmedlemmer mener, at man ved at bibeholde den nuværende procedure, der ikke alene kræver enstemmighed i Rådet, men også en national ratificering, vil kunne undergrave Unionens evne til at finansiere sine politikker i fremtiden.
A good number of Convention members thought that retaining the current procedure which requires not only unanimity within the Council but also national ratification could endanger the Union's ability to finance its policies in the future.
Andre konventsmedlemmer gik derimod ind for at bevare den nuværende procedure, ikke mindst for at bevare de nationale parlamenters beføjelser på dette område.
Other members, on the other hand were in favour of retaining the current procedure in order to safeguard in particular the competences of national parliaments in this respect.
Mange konventsmedlemmer går ind for at styrke Europa-Parlamentets rolle i proceduren.
Many members were in favour of strengthening the European Parliament’s role in the procedure.
De, der ønsker en smidigere procedure for vedtagelse af ordningen med egne indtægter, påpegede, at den nuværende procedure ikke forekommer egnet til at skabe nye "egentlige" egne indtægter ud over de nationale bidrag.
Those wishing to make the procedure for adopting the own resources system more flexible pointed out that the current procedure did not seem suited to the creation of new "genuinely" own resources over and above national contributions.
Derfor støttede en række konventsmedlemmer tanken om at åbne mulighed for at indføre europæiske skatter.
In this context, a number of Convention members supported the idea of providing for the possibility of establishing European taxes.
Nogle talere foreslog en dobbelt procedure: den nuværende procedure til fastsættelse af loftet over indtægterne og en smidigere procedure til indtægtsordningens øvrige aspekter.
Some speakers proposed a dual procedure: the current procedure for determining the ceiling on resources and a more flexible procedure for the other elements of the resources system.
Andre ønskede at bibeholde den nuværende ordning: Den har tidligere gjort det muligt at indføre nye indtægter.
Others were in favour of keeping the present procedure: this had made it possible to introduce new resources in the past.
Der er bred opbakning omkring præsidiets forslag om en formel indsættelse af de finansielle overslag i forfatningen.
There was broad consensus on the proposal by the Praesidium to formalise the financial perspective in the Constitution.
Disse overslag skal fastsætte lofter for udgifterne under de enkelte udgiftsområder, som bliver en bindende juridisk ramme for det årlige budget.
This perspective would determine the ceilings on expenditure by heading, which would become a legally binding framework for the annual budget.
Holdningerne var delte med hensyn til proceduren.
Opinions were divided as to the procedure.
Mange talere fandt, at Rådet bør spille en fremtrædende rolle i forbindelse med fastlæggelsen af overslagene.
A number of speakers considered that the Council should play a predominant role in the definition of the perspective.
Nogle konventsmedlemmer foreslog, at man anvender den fælles beslutningsprocedure.
Some members suggested using the codecision procedure.
Nogle enkelte fandt, at Rådet bør træffe afgørelse med enstemmighed, i det mindste om lofterne for udgifterne under de enkelte udgiftsområder.
Others took the view that the Council must decide unanimously at least on the ceilings on expenditure by heading.
Med hensyn til overslagenes varighed ser flere konventsmedlemmerne gerne, at den bliver sammenfaldende med Europa-Parlamentets og Kommissionens politiske mandat.
As for the period of validity of the perspective, several Convention members would like it to coincide with the political mandate of the Parliament and the Commission.
Mange af konventsmedlemmerne går ind for at afskaffe den nuværende skelnen mellem obligatoriske og ikkeobligatoriske udgifter.
Many members were in favour of doing away with the distinction between compulsory and non-compulsory expenditure.
Ifølge en del af dem kan dette dog kun ske, såfremt to betingelser er opfyldt: dels bør lofterne for udgifterne inden for de enkelte udgiftsområder gøres juridisk bindende gennem en formel indsættelse af de finansielle overslag i forfatningen, og dels bør princippet om, at budgettet skal indeholde de nødvendige bevillinger til at dække de retlige forpligtelser over for tredjepart, indarbejdes i forfatningen.
Some of them, however, made such a move subject to two conditions: firstly, the ceilings on expenditure by heading should be made legally binding through the formalisation of the financial perspective in the Constitution and, secondly, the principle whereby the budget should provide for the appropriations necessary to cover legal obligations towards third parties should be embodied in the Convention.
De samme betingelser vil ifølge disse talere samtidig gøre det muligt at forenkle den årlige procedure efter den fælles beslutningsprocedure.
In the view of these speakers, these same conditions would enable the annual procedure to be simplified on the basis of codecision.
Der er desuden bred konsensus om tanken om at omstrukturere den årlige budgetprocedure på grundlag af en forenklet fælles beslutningsprocedure.
Moreover, a broad consensus emerged in favour of the idea of restructuring the annual budgetary procedure on the basis of simplified codecision.
Der er imidlertid opstået uenighed om, hvilken mekanisme der skal benyttes, såfremt Europa-Parlamentet og Rådet ikke når til enighed.
Nevertheless, differences of opinion emerged regarding the mechanism for settling the matter if the Parliament and the Council failed to reach agreement.
Nogle ønsker, at Europa-Parlamentet skal have det sidste ord, som det er tilfældet efter den nuværende procedure for ikkeobligatoriske udgifter.
Some would like the Parliament to have the last word, as is the case under the current procedure regarding non-compulsory expenditure.
Andre har foreslået, at det laveste af de foreslåede beløb opføres på budgettet.
Others proposed that the lowest amount of those proposed be entered in the budget.
Nogle talere ønskede, at der indføres særlige procedureregler for så vidt angår budgettet for den fælles udenrigs- og sikkerhedspolitik.
Some speakers wanted specific procedural arrangements to be made concerning the common foreign and security policy.
Nogle ønskede at overlade initiativretten til Kommissionen, både med hensyn til overslagene og det årlige budget, uden at de dog dermed tog stilling til reglerne for beslutningstagningen i Rådet.
Some members supported the idea of giving the Commission the initiative both as regards the perspective and the annual budget, but without prejudging the rules for taking decisions in the Council.
En del konventsmedlemmer fandt, at der er en samlet logik i budgetprocedurerne, og at balancen mellem institutionerne skal sikres inden for rammerne af denne logik.
Quite a few members thought that there was some overall logic to the budgetary procedures, and that institutional balance should be taken into account within that logic.
Nogle anbefalede en institutionel fremgangsmåde, hvor Rådet skal have det sidste ord med hensyn til indtægterne og Europa-Parlamentet med hensyn til udgifterne.
Some advocated an institutional approach whereby the Council should have the last word on revenue and the Parliament on expenditure.
Der synes at være bred tilslutning til de budgetmæssige principper, som præsidiet har foreslået i artikel 39.
The budgetary principles proposed by the Praesidium in Article 39 were apparently the subject of broad consensus.
Nogle konventsmedlemmer har dog foreslået at tilføje princippet om tilvejebringelse af de nødvendige midler, som i øjeblikket er omhandlet i EU-traktatens artikel 6, stk. 4.
Nevertheless, some Convention members proposed adding to that article the principle of necessary means, currently covered by Article 6(5) TEU.
