The system will entail micro-prudential supervision by supervisory authorities for the individual sectors, which will have powers to make decisions that are binding on individual enterprises.
Det blir et system for overvåkning på mikronivå i form av byråer som skal følge de enkelte næringer og være bemyndiget til å treffe vedtak med bindende karakter for enkeltforetak.
According to the proposal, Norway will be given observer status and be entitled to take part in discussions on individual enterprises in cases where we have an interest as host or home country of the enterprise in question.
Norge vil etter forslaget få plass som observatør og med anledning til å være med i diskusjonen om enkeltforetak når det foreligger en interesse ved at vi er vertsland eller moderland for vedkommende selskap.
In connection with macro-prudential supervision, it is proposed that a European Systemic Risk Council should be established.
For overvåkningen på makronivå foreslår man å opprette et Risikoråd.
Here too it is expected that Norway will be able to participate within a specified framework.
Det forventes også her at det åpnes for norsk deltakelse innenfor visse rammer.
The legislative acts relating to the new supervisory system are EEA-relevant and should, as a general rule, be incorporated into the EEA Agreement.
Rettsaktene om det nye systemet for overvåkning er EØS-relevante og skal i utgangspunktet innlemmes i EØS-avtalen.
This will provide an opportunity to agree on specific conditions for Norway’s participation.
De nærmere vilkår for den norske deltakelsen vil kunne avtales i den forbindelse.
It is important that the financial crisis does not lead to protectionist measures or increased use of support schemes that distort competition.
Det er viktig at finanskrisen ikke fører til proteksjonistiske tiltak eller økt bruk av konkurransevridende støtte.
There have been reports of new support measures in the maritime sector of certain EU member states.
Det har vært rapportert om nye støttetiltak i maritim sektor i visse EU-land.
All such measures should come under the common rules for the internal market.
Alle slike tiltak må være innenfor de felles reglene i det indre marked.
The Government will maintain a dialogue with the EU on developments in this area.
Regjeringen vil ha dialog med EU om utviklingen på dette området.
In June, EU citizens elected the new European Parliament.
I juni valgte EUs borgere nytt Europaparlament.
There was a low turnout for this year’s election.
Det ble lav oppslutning ved årets valg.
The results showed that it had fallen to just 43.1% of a total of more than 375 million Europeans entitled to vote.
Resultatet viste en deltagelse på bare 43.1 prosent av de over 375 millioner stemmeberettigede europeerne.
This is a serious sign that popular support for the EU may be on the decline, and the result is a paradox: fewer and fewer are taking part in elections to an institution that is becoming more and more important.
Dette er et alvorlig varsko når det gjelder den folkelige oppslutningen om EU, og resultatet etterlater seg et paradoks: stadig færre deltar i valg til en institusjon som har fått stadig økende betydning.
For the European Parliament has become a political workshop with real political power.
For Europaparlamentet er blitt et politisk verksted med reell politisk makt.
It is important that both the Norwegian Government and the Storting take note of this.
Dette er det viktig å merke seg både for regjering og Storting.
It is positive that the Storting has recently intensified its contact with the European Parliament, both through formal channels and through the party groups.
Det er positivt at Stortinget den siste tiden har styrket kontakten med Europaparlamentet, både gjennom formelle kanaler og gjennom partigruppene.
This is necessary.
Dette er nødvendig.
On several issues where there is broad political agreement in Norway, we can and should join forces in order to work together strategically to promote Norwegian views.
I flere saker, der det er bred enighet i det politiske Norge, kan og bør vi gjøre felles front og arbeide strategisk sammen for å påvirke for norske syn.
On 16 September, José Manuel Barroso of Portugal was re-elected as President of the European Commission for a new five-year period.
Portugals Barroso ble gjenvalgt til en ny femårsperiode som Europakommisjonens president i Europaparlamentet 16. september.
His programme includes strengthening economic cooperation between the EU member states, regulation of the financial markets, reform of the budget system and an ambitious climate policy.
I Barrosos program inngår en styrking av det økonomiske samarbeidet mellom EU-landene, regulering av finansmarkedene, reform av budsjettsystemet og en offensiv klimapolitikk.
The process of establishing a new Commission is under way, and is expected to be completed by 1 December.
Arbeidet med å sette sammen en ny kommisjon er i gang, og vil trolig være på plass 1. desember.
It is timely that female Commissioners together with other women in prominent positions in the EU have urged Mr Barroso to seek a good balance between women and men in the Commission.
Det er betimelig at de kvinnelige kommissærene sammen med andre kvinnelige toppledere i EU har oppfordret Barroso om å tilstrebe en kommisjon med jevn balanse mellom kvinner og menn.
Finally, I would like to say a few words about certain specific issues related to the EU Common Foreign and Security Policy and EU cooperation on justice and home affairs policy.
Jeg vil avslutningsvis omtale enkelte saker innen EUs felles utenriks- og sikkerhetspolitiske område (Fusp) og EUs samarbeid om justis- og innenrikspolitikken.
One of the aims of the Lisbon Treaty is to better coordinate and increase the impact of the EU Common Foreign and Security Policy.
Et siktemål med Lisboa-traktaten er at EUs felles utenriks- og sikkerhetspolitikk blir mer samkjørt og får større tyngde.
It is natural for Norway to maintain close contact with relevant EU bodies when we are formulating our own foreign policy.
Det faller naturlig for Norge å ha tett og løpende kontakt med EUs ulike organer når vi meisler ut vår egen utenrikspolitikk.
We have similar views on many issues and processes.
I mange saker og prosesser har vi sammenfallende syn.
As regards the Middle East, we maintain close contact with the EU through our chairmanship of the Ad-Hoc Liaison Committee.
I Midtøsten har vårt AHLC-formannskap løpende og tett kontakt med EU.
As for the efforts to address the difficult situation in both Afghanistan and Pakistan, we note that the EU has started a process designed to strengthen and better coordinate its own efforts in these countries.
I møte med den krevende situasjonen både i Afghanistan og Pakistan merker vi oss at EU har startet en prosess for å styrke og samordne sin egen innsats i disse to landene.
This is important for Norway, for example in the police sector in Afghanistan, where we are collaborating with the EU Police Mission in Afghanistan (EUPOL) on training the Afghan civilian police force.
For Norge er dette viktig bl.a. i politisektoren i Afghanistan hvor vi samarbeider med EUs politimisjon (EUPOL) om opplæring av den sivile afghanske politistyrken.
I would also like to mention the EU’s Operation Atlanta to combat piracy off the Somali coast, where the Norwegian frigate Fridtjof Nansen is taking part.
La meg også nevne operasjon Atalanta i Somalia, der den norske fregatten ”Fridtjof Nansen” deltar i EUs operasjon for å bekjempe piratvirksomhet.
Our participation is governed by the agreement concluded between Norway and the EU in 2004 on Norway’s participation in EU crisis management operations.
Vår deltakelse er regulert gjennom avtalen inngått i 2004 mellom Norge og EU om Norges deltakelse i EUs krisehåndteringsoperasjoner.
There is a clear UN mandate for this operation, which is a condition for Norway’s participation.
Operasjonen har et klart FN-mandat som er en forutsetning for at Norge skal kunne delta.
So far, the operation is going well.
Operasjonen så langt går bra.
The number of seizures has dropped significantly.
Antallet gjennomførte kapringer er sterkt redusert.
All escorted UN shipments have arrived safely at their destination.
Alle eskorter til støtte for FN har kommet vel fram til bestemmelsesstedet.
Fridtjof Nansen has been engaged in several of these operations and has been commended for its performance.
”Fridtjof Nansen” har vært engasjert i flere av disse og har høstet ros for sin innsats.
EU activities in the justice and home affairs area affect us directly through the various agreements Norway has concluded with the EU in this field.
EUs aktivitet på justis og innenriksområdet påvirker oss direkte gjennom de ulike avtalemessige tilknytninger som Norge har på disse områdene.
The most important of these is the Schengen Association Agreement.
Den viktigste tilknytning til EU på dette feltet er vår assosieringsavtale til Schengen.
However, in order to be better equipped to combat cross-border crime, Norway needs to cooperate more closely with the EU in this field, even beyond the scope of the Schengen Agreement.
For å stå bedre rustet i kampen mot grensekryssende kriminalitet er det imidlertid viktig for Norge å sikre en tett samordning med EU på dette feltet også utover Schengenavtalen.
This could be arranged through bilateral cooperation and exchange of experience, and also through new association agreements.
Dette kan skje gjennom bilateralt samarbeid og erfaringsutveksling, men også gjennom tilknytningsavtaler.
The fact that the EU is developing new forms of cooperation in this area outside the scope of the Schengen Agreement is a challenge, particularly as regards ensuring that Norway has an opportunity to take part and exert an influence.
Det er en utfordring at EU utvikler nytt samarbeid på dette området utenfor Schengen-avtalens virkeområde.
Norway has negotiated an agreement with the EU on participation in the Prüm Treaty on enhanced police cooperation.
Norge har fremforhandlet en avtale med EU om forsterket politisamarbeid, den såkalte Prüm-avtalen.
This will give us access to national databases containing DNA profiles, fingerprints and vehicle registration data, and will be an important tool in our efforts to combat terrorism and cross-border crime.
Denne vil blant annet gi oss adgang til nasjonale databaser om DNA, fingeravtrykk og kjøretøy, og vil være et viktig redskap i bekjempelse av terrorisme og grenseoverskridende kriminalitet.
The Prüm Treaty contains an extensive chapter on data protection and the processing of personal data.
Prüm-avtalen har et omfattende kapittel om datasikkerhet og behandling av personopplysninger.
Thus due account has been taken of the protection of privacy.
Hensyn til personvernet er følgelig godt ivaretatt.
It is expected that the agreement will be signed at the Justice and Home Affairs Council on 30 November.
Avtalen forventes undertegnet under EUs rådsmøte 30. november.
In June this year, the Commission proposed the establishment of a new agency for the management of the common IT systems in the area of justice and home affairs.
Kommisjonen la i juni 2009 frem et forslag om å opprette et nytt EU-byrå som skal forvalte de felles IT-systemene på justis- og innenriksområdet.
To begin with, this agency will be responsible for the management the Schengen Information System (SIS II), the Visa Information System (VIS) and the fingerprint database EURODAC, but the agency could, according to the proposal, also be given responsibility for the development and management of future IT systems in this field.
Byrået skal i første omgang ha ansvar for å forvalte systemene SIS II, VIS og Eurodac, men forslaget åpner også for at byrået vil kunne få ansvar for både utvikling og forvaltning av fremtidige IT-systemer på feltet.
The legislative package entails a further development of the Schengen and EURODAC regulations.
Lovforslaget er en videreutvikling av Schengen og Eurodac-regelverket.
Work is currently in progress on a legislative act to establish such an agency, and Norway is taking part in these negotiations.
Det forhandles for tiden om rettsakten som skal opprette byrået. og Norge deltar i disse forhandlingene.
As I have already pointed out in this address, this summer and autumn have been eventful in Europe – and indeed in Norway, with the general election, which gave the red-green coalition Government a renewed mandate.
Som jeg har pekt på i denne redegjørelsen, har det vært en begivenhetsrik sommer og høst i Europa – så også i Norge, med stortingsvalget og fornyet mandat til den rød-grønne regjeringen.
In the EU, a new European Parliament has been elected, a new Commission will soon be in place, and the Lisbon Treaty will soon enter into force.
I EU har et nytt Europaparlament kommet sammen, en ny Kommisjon skal komme på plass, og Lisboa-traktaten står foran sin ikrafttredelse.
In this connection, it should be added that the Council of Europe has elected Thorbjørn Jagland as its new Secretary General.
I denne sammenheng skal vi legge til at Europarådet har fått ny generalsekretær gjennom valget av Thorbjørn Jagland.
I would like to commend all the parties in the Storting for their concerted efforts to support Mr Jagland’s and the Foreign Ministry’s campaign.
Jeg vil berømme Stortingets partier for å ha arbeidet samlet og fokusert for å understøtte Jaglands og Utenriksdepartementets valgkamp.
The Council of Europe is a vital institution in the mosaic of European cooperation structures, with its focus on human rights and respect for the rule of law.
Europarådet spiller en viktig rolle i mosaikken av europeiske samarbeidsinstitusjoner, med sitt viktige fokus på menneskerettigheter og respekt for rettsstaten.
Norway will support Mr Jagland in his reform work, including the efforts to further develop practical and effective cooperation with the EU.
Norge vil støtte Jaglands i hans reformbestrebelser, blant annet i arbeidet med å finne frem til et fornuftig og effektivt samarbeid med EU.

Report from CaringCompany-Etikanalytikerna on Exclusion of Companies
Approach to the Problem The Petroleum Fund Advisory Commission on International Law (the Advisory Commission), in a letter of 13 April 2003, was requested by the Ministry of Finance to consider a report from CaringCompany-Etikanalytikerna (CCEA) which aims at identifying companies which have operations in contradiction to international prohibitions against anti-personnel mines, chemical and biological weapons, sexual exploitation of children and the worst forms of child labour.

The Advisory Commission on International Law interprets this request to mean that the Ministry of Finance wishes to consider firstly CCEA’s method and to what degree the method is conducive for the enlightenment of the relevant approaches to the problem, and secondly, to what degree CCEA’s concrete recommendations are based on valid premises.
