Predlog Komisije o evropskem kazalniku je nastal potem, ko so se voditelji držav in vlad na vrhu v Barceloni marca 2002 zavzeli za izboljšave pri poučevanju temeljnih spretnosti, vključno z vsaj dvema tujima jezikoma od zgodnjega otroštva dalje.
To encourage mobility in the enlarged EU, it is important for European citizens to possess knowledge of several languages.
V Evropski uniji trenutno sploh ni dovolj informacij za ustrezno primerljivost podatkov o jezikovnih in komunikacijskih spretnostih njenih državljanov.
In March 2002, the Barcelona European Council called for the introduction of a linguistic proficiency indicator to bridge the current information gap regarding the actual language and communication skills of European Union citizens.
Skupni evropski kazalnik jezikovnih kompetenc bi temeljil na posebej pripravljenih objektivnih testih, s katerimi bi ocenjevali jezikovne spretnosti na štirih področjih: branje, slušno razumevanje, ustno izražanje in pisanje.
Consequently, they welcome the creation of an European Indicator of Language Competence proposed by the Commission in a communication from last year which is to measure overall foreign language competencies in four areas: reading, comprehension, speaking and writing in each Member State.
Na začetku bi se iz praktičnih razlogov izvajali pisni testi, ustrezni podatki bi se zbirali v rednih časovnih presledkih, na primer vsaka tri leta.
The Indicator should record the proficiency of the sample at each of the six levels on the scales of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages of the Council of Europe and this in at least two languages other than the mother tongue.
Kazalnik bi beležil znanje jezika v vzorčnih skupinah na vseh šestih stopnjah lestvice, ki je opredeljena v Evropskem referenčnem okvirju za jezike Sveta Evrope in se že uporablja v številnih državah članicah.
This reference framework has gained wide acceptance and is already used in many Member States.
V prvi fazi bi preverjali znanje petih najbolj poučevanih jezikov v EU - angleščine, francoščine, nemščine, španščine in italijanščine - naknadno pa še drugih jezikov.
During an initial phase, linguistic proficiency will be tested in the five most widely taught languages in the European Union (English, French, German, Spanish and Italian), but the Parliament wants to make sure further languages would be added at a subsequent stage.
Raziskava Eurobarometer "Evropejci in njihovi jeziki", objavljena februarja letos, kaže, da je za 38 odstotkov Evropejcev prvi tuji jezik angleščina, sledita nemščina in francoščina s po 14 odstotki, španščina s 6 odstotki in italijanščina s 3 odstotki.
According to a recent Eurobarometer survey " Europeans and their languages ", published on February 2006, 38% of Europeans speak English as a foreign language, while the rates for the other four languages are 14% for German, 14% for French, 6% for Spanish and 3% for Italian.
Evropski kazalnik bi bil izjemno pomemben instrument pri zbiranju zanesljivih podatkov o znanju tujih jezikov med evropskimi državljani, zlasti med mladimi.
The Indicator will offer a valuable technical instrument that will help the European Commission obtain reliable information concerning the linguistic proficiency of European citizens, in particular young people.
S tako zbranimi podatki bi bila možna primerjava med politikami držav članic na tem področju in izmenjava izkušenj, kar bi dalo tudi nov zagon poučevanju tujih jezikov.
It will also enable comparisons to be made between Member State policies in this area, and will facilitate consultation regarding best practice, thereby giving fresh impetus to language teaching.
Pri izvajanju in razvijanju kazalnika, zlasti glede podatkov o jezikovni zmožnosti (jeziki na televiziji in v družinskem okolju, tedensko število ur tujega jezika v šoli, izkušnje učiteljev, ipd.), bi morale aktivno sodelovati države članice in regionalne oblasti.
MEPs believe that Member States should be fully involved in development and implementation of the Indicator.
Komisija bo sicer pristojna za osrednje usklajevanje in analizo podatkov, pri čemer ji bodo pomagali zunanji izvajalci, izbrani z javnimi naročili, za pomoč pri tehničnih vprašanjih in nadzorom nad pravilno uporabo kazalnika pa bi skrbel odbor, sestavljen iz predstavnikov držav članic.
Member States are invited to participate actively in the implementation and development of the Indicator and give fresh impetus to language teaching, including through successful language immersion programmes.
Kazalnik ne bi obremenil evropskega proračuna z dodatnimi upravnimi izdatki, ker bi se predvideni stroški krili iz sredstev za obstoječa programa Socrates in Leonardo da Vinci ter iz novega integriranega programa vseživljenjskega učenja.
Parliament calls on the Commission to actively encourage information concerning the advantages of language learning from an early age, and considers that initiatives to inform the public of the advantages of foreign language proficiency, such as European Day of Languages (26 September), a Council of Europe initiative, and the European Language Label, an EU initiative, should contribute more substantially to increasing multilingualism.
Storitev "eCall" bo reševalcem pomagala pri lokaciji prometnih nesreč
eCall will automatically contact the nearest emergency services
Poročilo na lastno pobudo o sistemu za klic v sili eCall je pripravil poslanec Gary TITLEY (PES, UK), iz odbora za promet in turizem.
This view comes in a non-binding own initiative report tabled by Gary TITLEY (PES, UK) on road safety and the introduction of the eCall system.
Predlagani časovni načrt predvideva, da naj bi sistem konec leta 2009 v Evropi postal obvezna oprema v vseh novih vozilih, tako osebnih kot tovornih.
The report recommends that all European authorities include eCall information within their public road safety campaigns, and that " the large-scale-roll-out of eCall by 2009 is a priority of the eSafety initiative ".
Ob prometni nesreči kjerkoli v EU bi voznik s pritiskom na gumb (v primeru hujših nesreč pa bi sistem v vozilu deloval samodejno) oddal klic najbližji centrali za klice v sili na številko 112 in ji ob tem posredoval podatke o točni lokaciji vozila.
The initiative involves an eCall device fitted in road vehicles which is activated in the case of an accident, transmitting " an emergency call with data that goes directly to the nearest emergency call centre " thereby providing information on the location of the accident.
Osnova sistema eCall je vseevropska številka za klic v sili 112 s storitvijo E112, ki omogoča določanje lokacije klica v mobilnih omrežjih.
The introduction of a European-wide eCall service " could save up to 2,500 lives a year and bring about a reduction of up to 15% in the gravity of injuries ".
Memorandum o soglasju za sistem eCall so doslej podpisale Finska, Grčija, Italija, Litva, Slovenija, Švedska in Ciper, postopek za podpis pa so začele Češka, Danska, Nizozemska in Nemčija.
It therefore invites them " to pursue a deeper cost-efficiency analysis for every action to be undertaken to implement eCall ".
Okvirni časovni načrt predvideva, da bi še letos določili tehnične specifikacije sistema, naslednje leto bi se začeli preizkusi, sistem pa bi postal standardna oprema v vseh novih osebnih vozilih konec leta 2009.
Whilst encouraging a " gradual introduction and large-scale roll-out of eCall ", the committee is also aware that new technologies may prove costly and that consumers may be unwilling to pay for these, it thus " calls on all stakeholders to work together to define incentives to speed up the introduction of the eCall incentive ".
Parlament želi poenostaviti načine sodelovanja na lokalni ravni
Parliament keen to make local government cross-district co-operation easier
S skupnimi močmi do boljše infrastrukture
Construction of swimming pools is just one area likely to be affected.
Lokalne oblasti na krajevni in regionalni ravni dostikrat združijo moči in izvajajo skupne projekte.
Local authorities, at district and regional level, are increasingly working on joint infrastructure projects.
Evropska zakonodaja s področja javnih naročil naj bi zagotavljala njihovo preglednost in učinkovitost, obenem pa ne bi smela ovirati tovrstnega sodelovanja.
While EU public procurement laws must ensure that public spending is transparent and effective, they should not however prevent such co-operation from taking place.
So morda v zmoti?
But are they wrong to think so?
Teh prepričanj se ne da spremeniti kar čez noč, toda vedno več srednje velikih in manjših krajev gradi tovrstne objekte.
Such impressions cannot be easily changed overnight, but more and more councils serving smaller populations are succeeding in getting these sorts of facilities.
Kako jim to uspe?
How do they do it?
Odgovor leži v sodelovanju več lokalnih skupnosti, ki ustanavljajo javna interesna združenja, kar pomeni več denarja in več strokovnega znanja na enem mestu.
The answer is that they form cross-district consortia by setting up public interest organisations, where finance and expertise is pooled for carrying out a joint project.
Skupni interesi so različni: sežigalnice odpadkov, čistilne naprave, nova namembnost opuščenih vojaških ali industrijskih objektov.
There is a long list of cross-community initiatives such as: waste incinerators, waste water purification plants and the redevelopment of land that was formerly used for military or industrial use.
Med primeri je tudi projekt petih lokalnih skupnosti z obeh bregov Rena, ki pomeni sodelovanje francoskih in nemških vrtcev za otroke.
A further example is provided by the five local authorities who came together from both sides of the Rhine in a project which involved both French and German pre-school nurseries.
Vsi ti projekti pa imajo skupno značilnost - porabo javnega denarja.
What these projects all have in common is their use of public funds.
Dokler gre za vzajemno zagotavljanje storitev organov oblasti, zadostujejo notranji proračunski postopki.
As long as co-operation does not go beyond services being provided mutually, then only so-called “in-house” procedures are applicable.
Kako torej najti pravo ravnotežje, da bi zagotovili tako kvaliteto kot tudi stroškovno učinkovitost javnih storitev?
So, without losing sight of the main issue of ensuring good quality and cost-effective public services for local residents, how should the right balance be struck?
Vprašanje je bilo osrednja tema javne obravnave na odboru za trg in varstvo potrošnikov, ki je potekala 20. aprila.
This was the issue that dominated the public hearing held on April the 20 th by Parliament’s Internal Market and Consumer Protection Committee.
Udeleženci so se posvetili predvsem učinkovitosti in delovanju direktiv o dodeljevanju javnih naročil in sklepanju pogodb v javnem sektorju.
The hearing was concerned with the effectiveness and working of the directives on public sector awards and contracts.
Parlament in Svet EU sta leta 2004 sprejela ti dve direktivi v postopku soodločanja, njun namen pa je bil poenostaviti evropsko zakonodajo in jo narediti bolj prožno.
Indeed, two years ago Parliament and the Council passed two directives dealing with this area, which were aimed at modernising EU law by making it simpler and more flexible.
Obenem številni strokovnjaki opozarjajo, da Evropsko sodišče v svojih sodbah zakonodajo razlaga zelo togo in ne upošteva posebnih okoliščin, ki nastanejo z interesnim sodelovanjem lokalnih skupnosti.
At the same time, in the opinion of a number of experts, the judgements of the European Court of Justice were taking too orthodox a view of the law by not taking account of the special circumstances of local authority cross-district co-operation.
Številni postopki pred sodiščem naj bi bili tudi dokaz, da zakonodaja ne zagotavlja pravne jasnosti.
They also said that the abundance of case law also showed that the required legal clarity was not being provided for by the law.
Vsekakor je treba za kakršnekoli sklepe počakati na to, kaj bo prineslo izvajanje direktiv v praksi.
However, we will have to wait and see how the directives are working in practice before coming to any conclusion.
Šele potem bodo institucije morda morale najti soglasje o takšni razlagi veljavne zakonodaje, ki bo prinesla čim več pozitivnih učinkov.
After that, it may be necessary for Parliament, the Commission and the Council to reach agreement on how to interpret the regulations in force so that the hoped-for benefits can be realised.
Komisija pa je napovedala, da bo objavila svojo razlago direktiv in da že izvaja ukrepe proti članicam, ki zamujajo z implementacijo zakonodaje.
In the meantime, the Commission has announced the publication of its interpretative communication and that action is being taken against those countries which are delaying the implementation of the directives.

Dvajset let po nesreči v Černobilu
MEPs mark the twentieth anniversary of Chernobyl
Komisar za energetiko Andris PIEBALGS je v začetku predstavitve opisal svojo osebno izkušnjo, saj je za nesrečo je po naključju izvedel med dopustovanjem nekaj sto kilometrov stran od prizorišča šele dva dni potem, ko se je zgodila.
Twenty years to the day after the nuclear explosion in Chernobyl, Energy Commissioner Andris Piebalgs opened the debate by paying tribute to the people who lost their lives and to the communities hurt by the accident.
Opomnil je, da je danes dan spomina na žrtve: mrtve, obolele, številne ki še trpijo.
He said he had been in Ukraine at the time, so he felt a close personal contact with the issue.
O sedanjih ukrepih pa je poudaril, da je Evropska unija od leta 1991 zagotovila občutno finančno pomoč, za povečanje jedrske varnosti v Ukrajini, Rusiji in nekaterih drugih državah nekdanje Sovjetske zveze, od tega pol milijarde evrov samo za Ukrajino.
The Commissioner stressed the substantial EU assistance provided to countries of the former Soviet Union since 1991 for nuclear safety improvements - more than half a billion euro had gone to Ukraine alone.
"Černobilska nesreča je bila preobrat v svetovnem pogledu na jedrsko varnost.
"Chernobyl was a turning point in raising awareness in the international community of the need for the application of rules and common standards in the nuclear industry, and for immediate reaction in the case of emergencies," he said.
Izpostavila je potrebo po skupnih standardih za zmanjšanje tveganja na minimum, česar se Evropa tudi jasno zaveda - ima skupne standarde, skupna pravila delovanja in postopke za ukrepanje ob nesrečah," je opisal komisar.
He set out a series of international conventions under the auspices of the International Atomic Energy Agency to which the Euratom Community and all the Member States were signatories.
V nadaljevanju je dodal, da ima EU vzpostavljen sistem za izmenjavo informacij med članicami, v katerega so vključene tudi tretje države ter da je finančno pomagala pri posodabljanju in zapiranju elektrarn znotraj ter izven Unije.
He also reminded MEPs of the range of EU legislation aimed at ensuring nuclear safety and a swift reaction to any radiological accidents.
"Po letu 1986 je Evropska unija dosegla velik napredek na področju jedrske varnosti, varovanja pred sevanjem in pripravljenosti na ukrepanje ob nesrečah.
Mr Piebalgs also noted that nuclear power stations within the EU were being brought up to standard or would be closed, with EU assistance for the countries affected.
Dvajset let po Černobilu je naša ocena pozitivna, vendar pa ne smemo pozabiti dramatičnih posledic, ki jih je nesreča pustila na ljudeh in okolju, zato moramo ostati pripravljeni," je zaključil komisar Piebalgs.
Looking to the future, he said there were a number of legislative initiatives on the table.
Predstavniki političnih skupin
The EU would also be funding more research into how to deal with radioactive waste.
V imenu Evropske ljudske stranke je Hans Gert PÖTTERING (EPP-ED, DE) označil jedrsko nesrečo v Černobilu kot prvo tovrstno nesrečo kontinentalnih razsežnosti, naša dolžnost pa je, da ostane edina.
The leader of the EPP-ED group, Hans Gert POETTERING (DE) took the floor to express sympathy with those affected by what he called the " first European environmental tragedy of continental dimensions."
V zadnjih dvajsetih letih je bilo storjenega veliko za pomoč ljudem, in premagovanju posledic, obletnica pa naj tudi prispeva k izboljšanju jedrske varnosti, " je poudaril Pöttering.
He said major improvements in nuclear safety had taken place since the fall of the iron curtain. "
Dodal je, da nesreča ne bi smela biti argument proti jedrski energiji, temveč argument za jedrsko varnost, pri čemer je treba spodbujati raziskave za uporabo jedrske energije v miroljubne namene tudi za zmanjšanje odvisnosti od uvoza energetskih virov.
We must ," he concluded, " strive for safe nuclear power for safe energy for Europe ."
Drugič: desetletja je prihajalo do zlorab civilnih zmogljivosti v vojaške namene in tveganje, da se to ponovi, je preveliko.
While acknowledging that his group, like others, was not united on the question, he gave his view of the wider question of nuclear energy: although the risk of an accident was low, the damage it would cause meant that it was a risk not worth taking.
Tretjič: ZDA so diktatorjem poslale napačno sporočilo - če imate jedrsko bombo, vas ne bomo napadli, če je nimate, boste cilj," je svoje argumente povzel vodja socialdemokratov.
The issue of military use of civil nuclear facilities and what, he said, was the US's inconsistent approach to Iraq and North Korea also persuaded him to oppose nuclear power.
Za skupino liberalcev je njen vodja Graham WATSON (ALDE, UK) , poleg spomina na žrtve in opozorila na nejasnost, koliko ljudi bo še umrlo za posledicami te grozovite nesreče, svoj pogled usmeril v prihodnost.
Graham WATSON (UK) for the Liberals, describing Chernobyl as the "world's worst ever civil nuclear accident" called for an expression of solidarity with the victims of the accident.
Zelene tehnologije lahko ustvarijo nova delovna mesta, pospešijo razvoj, povečajo izvoz.
Mr Watson asserted the need for "greater autonomy", saying that "money invested in clean, green technology, is not money wasted".
Izvajanje načrtov za večjo uporabo biomase bi zmanjšalo našo odvisnost od fosilnih goriv za 6 odstotkov, in ustvarilo 300 tisoč novih delovnih mest v kmetijskih skupnostih.
He therefore applauded the Union's plans to double the use of biomass, predicting benefits for jobs and industry.
Moramo povečati naložbe v tehnologije za izkoriščanje vodika in jedrsko fuzijo.
He said that it is time "to make a genuine commitment - to invest in technology for the future".
Pri socializmu je zgrešil, morda pa je imel prav pri elektriki.
Mr Turmes asked whether we want to risk creating more nuclear plants "in a world where accidents of nuclear chains cannot be excluded…in a world with Al Qaeda".
Naj bo pravi spomin na žrtve Černobila razvoj trajnih in varnih virov čiste energije . " je prepričan Watson
He closed by warning that "societies can only survive if they learn the lessons of history".
Claude TURMES (Zeleni/EFA, NL) je dejal, da bi morala biti lekcija Černobila predvsem več spoštovanja do žrtev ki si zaslužijo priznanje in večja preglednost glede ugotavljanja resničnih posledic nesreče.
Jonas SJÖSTEDT (GUE/NGL, SE) noted that twenty years on and we can still see the sickness and handicaps of the people who suffered at Chernobyl.
"Mednarodna agencija za jedrsko energijo (IAEA) se ne sme več vmešavati in ovirati raziskav Svetovne zdravstvene organizacije (WHO) o posledicah sevanja.
Consequently, he called for the decommissioning of old reactors "at all costs".
Ukiniti je treba Eurotom, saj ne moremo pričakovati, da bo kot zagovornik jedrske energije lahko neodvisen arbiter.
Mr Sjostedt spoke against a dependency on oil for our energy supply, instead recommending that "we need sustainable energy sources that mean we can reduce our dependence on nuclear energy".
Na svetu je 450 jedrskih reaktorjev, ki proizvedejo 2,5 odstotka vse energije proizvedejo.
Georgios KARATZAFERIS (IND/DEM, EL) said that "today we are commemorating a tragic accident…and we don't know how many victims to commemorate".
Če bi bila jedrska energija res odgovor proti podnebnim spremembam, bi moral biti ta odstotek 30, 40 ali 50, kar bi pomenilo 5 do 7 tisoč novih reaktorjev, ne le enega tu, drugega tam.
He spoke of the "lingering effects of radiation" that "will continue to be present in hundreds of years' time".
Ali želimo sprejeti to tveganje v svetu, kjer ne moremo izključiti nesreč, kjer se srečujemo z Al Kaido in drugimi teroristi?
He also expressed great anxiety of the Bulgarian reactor being built, noting its proximity to Greece and Italy.
Družbe se morajo naučiti, da lahko preživijo le, če se kaj naučijo iz naukov preteklosti," je poudaril predstavnik Zelenih.
He declared that "we are duty bound to debate and condemn nuclear power…we should call for the decommissioning of nuclear power plants…we have to be courageous as representatives of democracy".
Georgios KARATZAFERIS (IND/DEM, EL) se je osredotočil na to, da bo sevanje trajalo še tisoče let in da bo samo postavitev novega betonskega sarkofaga nad ostanki reaktorja v Černobilu zahtevala milijone evrov.
Brian CROWLEY (UEN, IE) spoke of "the horrors which still befall the people of Chernobyl, Belarus, Kazakhstan and other parts of Europe" whilst remembering those who gave their lives for others.
Opozoril je, da je Bolgarija sicer obljubila zaprtje ene jedrske elektrarne, vendar gradi drugo v bližini meje z Grčijo in drugega največjega grškega mesta Soluna ."Zavedajmo se kakšna škoda je to lahko za EU.
In speaking against the use of nuclear power, Mr Crowley made an analogy: "atomic weapons are to an army what an elephant is to a mouse", likewise believing it impossible for mankind to control nuclear power.
Brian CROWLEY (UEN) se je prav tako zavzel za razvoj alternativnih virov energije, saj je tveganje preveliko, odpadki pa bodo ostali še stoletja.
She called for Europe to "be realistic…Europeans won't switch to biomass or wind energy…but they would like to live, consume, produce" .
Opozoril je na černobilske otroke in akcijo, s katero jim bodo omogočili zdravljenje na Irskem "Odgovorni smo za to , da se kaj takega več ne ponovi."
She advised that the EU cannot compete with the Asian and American economies -who are dependent on nuclear energy - "with a windmill".
Evropski parlament je po sredini večerni razpravi v četrtek opoldne sprejel poročilo na lastno pobudo o državni pomoči za inovacije, ki ga je pripravila poslanka Sophia in' t VELD (ALDE, NL) iz odbora za ekonomske in monetarne zadeve.
The use of state aid to promote innovation should remain the exception rather than the rule according to MEPs, who adopted an own-initiative report on the subject.
Ob tem še dodajajo, da se regionalna in državna pomoč za inovacije dopolnjujeta in da bi se morali osredotočiti na manj razvite regije, da bi v njih spodbujali gospodarsko in družbeno kohezijo, saj bo sicer takšna pomoč spodbudila le rast bolj razvitih regij in držav.
It notes that innovative processes as such do not merit state aid, which should only be granted for innovations which cannot be financed by normal commercial means.
Opozarjajo pa, da inovacije niso kar same po sebi upravičene do državne pomoči - namenjena naj bi bila le za tiste, ki jih ni možno financirati z običajnimi tržnimi sredstvi.
MEPs also stress that SMEs should be allocated a larger share of the aid available.
