Jasno mora tudi biti, da Parlament pričakuje, da bo Komisija predstavila konkretne predloge za spremembe sklepa o sistemu virov lastnih sredstev in ne le Bele knjige, ki opisuje teoretične možnosti za prihodnji sistem.
It should also be clear that the Parliament expects the Commission to come forward with concrete proposals for changes in the Own Resources Decision and not only a Whitebook outlining the possible theoretical options for a future system.
V ta namen se črtata besedi "po potrebi".
To that end the words “ if appropriate” are deleted.
Poleg tega bo Evropski parlament v ta pregled vključen v vseh fazah ob polnem spoštovanju njegovih pravic.
Furthermore, the European Parliament shall be associated with this review at all stages in full respect of its established rights.
V okviru celovitega, splošnega pregleda, ki bo zajel vse vidike porabe, in pregleda virov sredstev EU, o katerem bo poročala v obdobju 2008/2009, Komisija začne splošni pregled sistema virov lastnih sredstev, pri čemer po potrebi pripravi ustrezne predloge.

Lastna sredstva EU – nekoč in zdaj
The EU's own resources - Past and present
Vsebina sedanjega predloga Komisije
Contents of the current Commission proposal
Cilj sedanjega predloga Komisije je izvajanje sklepov Evropskega sveta z dne 15. in 16. decembra, na področju lastnih sredstev.
The current Commission proposal aims at implementing the conclusions of the European Council of 15 - 16 December 2005 in the area of own resources.
Na srečanju Evropskega sveta ni bil sklenjen le politični sporazum o novem finančnem okviru 2007-2013, ampak so bile poleg tega sprejete tudi nekatere spremembe lastnih sredstev, vključno z vrsto posebnih dogovorov za posamezne države članice (na strani izdatkov in dohodkov), in so postale del celotnega svežnja.
At the European Council meeting not only a political agreement on the new financial framework 2007 - 2013 was reached but, in addition, some changes to the own resources system including a series of special arrangements for individual Member States (on revenue and expenditure side), were also agreed and became part of the overall package.
Po mnenju Evropskega sveta mora biti ureditev lastnih sredstev upravljana po načelu enakosti.
According to the European Council, the own resources arrangements should be governed by the principle of equity.
Nobena država članica ne more obdržati proračunske obremenitve, ki je prekomerna glede na njeno sorazmerno uspešnost.
No Member State should sustain a budgetary burden which is excessive in relation to its relative prosperity.
Voditelji držav in vlad so zato menili, da je primerno uvesti določbe, ki zajemajo določene države članice.
The Heads of State and Governments considered it therefore "appropriate" to introduce provisions covering specific Member States.
Zato je v sedanjem predlogu Komisija določila delež za prevzete obveznosti iz DDV na 0,3 % omejene osnove DDV države članice.
In consequence, in its current proposal, the Commission fixes the rate of call of VAT at 0.30 % of Member States' capped VAT bases.
Vendar bodo zaradi zmanjšanja proračunske obremenitve nekatere države članice med leti 2007-2013 bile upravičene do znižane stopnje obveznosti iz DDV, ki je določena med 0,225 % in 0,10 %.
However, to reduce their budgetary burden, some Member States, shall benefit, between 2007-2013, from reduced rates of call of VAT fixed at between 0.225% and 0.10%.
Hkrati Komisija predlaga uporabo enotnega deleža prevzetih obveznosti iz BND.
At the same time, the Commission proposes the application of a uniform GNI rate of call.
Vendar bosta v obdobju 2007-2013 dve državi upravičeni do bruto znižanja letnih prispevkov BNP v višini 755 milijonov evrov.
However, for the period of 2007 - 2013, two countries will benefit from gross reductions in their annual GNI contributions of EUR 755 million, all in all.
Ta bruto znižanja bodo financirale vse države članice, vključno z obema upravičenkama.
These gross reductions will be financed by all Member States, including the two beneficiaries themselves.
Sedanji predlog kodificira to izjemo.
The current proposal codifies this exemption.
Predlog se načelno ne dotika popravka Združenega kraljestva, "britanskega popusta", razen glede odhodkov v novih državah članicah (ki bodo izključeni iz celotnih dodeljenih odhodkov za namen izračuna zneska popravka v korist Združenega kraljestva).
The proposal, in principle, also leaves the UK correction, the "British rebate", intact except for expenditure in the new Member States (which will be excluded from total allocated expenditure for the purpose of calculating the UK correction).
Vendar bodo tržni odhodki SKP v novih država članicah iz te izjeme izključeni, torej ne morejo biti del celote skupnih razporejenih odhodkov, ki se uporablja a izračun britanskega popusta.
However, CAP market expenditure in the new Member States shall be excluded from this exception, i.e. be part of the total allocated expenditure that is used for calculating the UK rebate.
Ocena poročevalca
Assessment by the rapporteur
Kakor je razvidno iz zgornjega besedila, določbe sedanjega predloga Komisije še dodatno zapletajo financiranje proračuna Evropske unije, zato spoštovanje načela pravičnosti ni mogoče z lahkoto presoditi.
As is clear from the above, these provisions of the current Commission proposal make the financing of the European Union's budget certainly not more, but less, transparent, so that the adherence to the principle of equity cannot be judged easily.
Zahteve za nov sistem, kot jih je v stališču do predloga o lastnih sredstvih leta 1999 sprejel Evropski parlament, niso izpolnjene.
The requirements for a new system as adopted by the European Parliament in its position on the last own resources proposal of 1999 are certainly not met.
Takrat je Evropski parlament v resoluciji zahteval za nov sistem lastnih sredstev, ki bi moral:
At that time, in its resolution, Parliament had asked for an own resources system that should be
· biti enostaven in razumljiv za javnost,
· simple and readily understood by the public,
· temeljiti na merilih, ki najbolje izražajo sposobnost prispevanja in hkrati preprečujejo uporabo mehanizmov kompenzacije za namene prihodkov,
· based on criteria that best expressed the ability to contribute while, at the same time, avoiding recourse to compensation mechanisms for purposes of revenue,
· biti neodvisen od prenosov iz držav članic in
· independent of transfers from Member States and
· opraviti tiste značilnosti obstoječega sistema, ki ustvarjajo zmedo zaradi izjem, ki veljajo za nacionalne prispevke.
· that should do away with those features of the existing system which generate confusion because of the exemptions applicable to national contributions.
Nov sklep o lastnih virih, kot ga predlaga Komisija, vse prej kot ustreza tem merilom.
The new own resources decision proposed by the Commission does anything but meet these criteria.
Je še en korak v vrsti sklepov o lastnih virih, ki z vsako reformo Evropsko unijo peljejo stran od sistema, ki bi bil "pravičen, pregleden in preprost" k sistemu, ki je po naravi zelo nepravičen, nepotrebno zapleten ter popolnoma nepregleden – poleg tega pa tudi zelo neevropski.
On the contrary, it is another step in a series of own resources decisions, that, with every reform, have led the European Community further away from a system that is "equitable, transparent and simple" towards a system, that is, by its very nature, highly unfair, unnecessarily complicated, completely intransparent - and deeply anti-European.
Obrazložitev: zgodovina lastnih sredstev
Excurse: History of own resources
V obdobju od 1958 do 1970 se je proračun Skupnosti financiral izključno s prispevki držav članic.
From 1958 to 1970 the Community budget was financed exclusively by contributions from the Member States.
Leta 1970 je Evropski svet v Luksemburgu prvič uvedel sistem lastnih sredstev za splošni proračun Skupnosti, ki je stopil v veljavo leta 1971.
In 1970, the Luxembourg European Council introduced for the first time a system of own resources for the general budget of the Community taking effect in 1971.
Eden od ciljev je bil spodbujanje finančne neodvisnosti Skupnosti od prenosov iz držav članic.
One objective was to enhance the Community's financial independence from Member States' transfers.
Prva lastna sredstva so bile carine in kmetijske dajatve, ki so postale znane kot tradicionalna lastna sredstva.
The first own resources were customs duties and agricultural levies which were to become known as traditional own resources (TOR).
Leta 1979 je bilo kot lastno sredstvo uveden vir, povezan z DDV, ko je bila v državah članicah določena osnova za njegovo vrednotenje.
In 1979, a VAT-linked resource was introduced as an own resource after a base for its assessment in the Member States had been defined.
Zaradi visoke ravni porabe za skupno kmetijsko politiko (SKP) in dveh širitev je Evropski svet v Fontainebleauju leta 1984 povečal najvišji delež za prevzete obveznosti iz DDV na 1,4 odstotka – ter vzpostavil mehanizem popravkov za proračunska neravnovesja, ki se je od takrat uporabljale le za Združeno kraljestvo
The high levels of spending on the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) and two enlargements led the Fontainebleau European Council in 1984 to increase the maximum rate of call for the VAT resource to 1.4 per cent - and to establish a correction mechanism for budgetary imbalances which has since only been applied to the UK
Vendar je bilo sklenjeno, da je katera koli država članica s proračunsko obremenitvijo, ki je prekomerna glede na njeno sorazmerno uspešnost, lahko ob ustreznem času upravičena do popravka." .
However, it has been decided that any Member State sustaining a budgetary burden which is excessive in relation to its relative prosperity may benefit from a correction at the appropriate time”. .
Ker je poraba za SKP ostala na enaki ravni, prihodki iz tradicionalnih lastnih sredstev pa so se zmanjševali, so se sklepi iz Fontainebleauja kmalu izkazali za nezadostne.
Since CAP spending remained at the same level and the revenues from TORs continued to decline the Fontainebleau decisions soon proved to be insufficient.
Zato je junija 1988 Evropski svet v Bruslju uvedel novo lastno sredstvo, ki temelji na BNP držav članic.
In consequence, in June 1988, the Brussels European Council introduced a new own resource based on the Member States' GNP.
Prav tako je določil splošno zgornjo mejo celotnega zneska lastnih sredstev, ki bi se lahko zahtevala za financiranje odhodkov Skupnosti.
It also set up an overall ceiling to the total amount of own resources which could be called to finance the Community's spending.
Sporazum iz Edinburga iz decembra 1992 je zvišal skupno zgornjo mejo na 1,27 odstotka evropskega BNP, hkrati pa je uvedel korake za dodatno zmanjšanje pomembnosti virov iz DDV.
The Edinburgh agreement of December 1992 increased this overall ceiling to 1.27 per cent of Europe's GNP, while at the same time introducing steps to further decrease the importance of the VAT resource.
Sporazum je začel veljati na začetku leta 1995.
This agreement entered into force at the beginning of 1995.
Leta 1999 je Evropski svet v Berlinu pozval Komisijo naj pripravi nov sklep o lastnih sredstvih, ki bi Uniji zagotovil zadostna sredstva za obdobje 2000-2006, hkrati pa bi pripomogel k strožji proračunski disciplini.
In 1999, the Berlin European Council called on the Commission to prepare a new own resources decision which should provide the Union with adequate resources for the period 2000 - 2006 while at the same time adhering to strict budgetary discipline.
Nov sistem naj bi bil "pravičen, pregleden, stroškovno učinkovit in preprost" ter naj bi temeljil na merilih, ki najbolje izražajo sposobnost držav članic, da prispevajo k financiranju Unije.
The new system should be “equitable, transparent, cost-effective and simple”, and based on criteria which express best the member States' ability to contribute to the financing of the Union.
S povečevanjem deleža tradicionalnih lastnih sredstev, ki jih države članice lahko zadržijo kot nadomestilo za stroške zbiranja od 10 % do 25 %, se je del prihodkov Unije iz tradicionalnih lastnih sredstev še dodatno znižal.
By raising the share of traditional own resources that can be retained by the Member States to compensate for their collection costs from 10% to 25%, the TOR part of the Union's revenue was further reduced.
Ugotovitve poročevalca
Conclusions by the rapporteur
Sedanji predlog Komisije za nov sklep o sistemu lastnih sredstev še naprej ohranja trenutno stanje: razširja sistem, v katerem približno 86 % prihodkov Unije ne izvira iz resničnih lastnih sredstev EU ampak prihajajo iz DDV in BNP
The current Commission proposal for a new own resources decision just cements this status quo: it extends a system in which around 86% of the Union's revenue does not originate in genuine own resources of the Union (= TOR) but come from the VAT and the GNI resource
Deleži povzeti po proračunu 2006: 14 % za sredstva iz DDV, 72 % za sredstva iz BNP. .
Shares taken from budget 2006: 14% for VAT resource, 72% for GNI resource. .
Ta plačila so obravnavana kot "nacionalni prispevki" držav članic iz njihovih lastnih žepov.
These payments are considered "national contributions" made by Member States out of their own pockets.
Ta pojem "članarin" je pripeljal neposredno do razprave o neto-plačnicah in povzročil odzive vrste "Svoj denar želim nazaj!", miselnosti, ki trenutno prevladujejo med državami članicami.
It is this concept of "membership fees" that has led directly to the net-payer debate and has culminated in the "I want my money back!"-mentality currently so dominant among Member States.
Sistem, ki je v veljavi danes, se je precej oddaljil od izvorne ideje v Rimski pogodbi: odhodki Skupnosti naj se financirajo iz prihodkov Skupnosti.
The system in place today has gone a long way from the original idea of the Treaty of Rome: the Community's expenditure should be financed by the Community's revenue.
Ker je bil ustvarjen pred 30 leti v socialno-gospodarskem okolju 70-ih let in za Unijo s šestimi članicami, je sistem lastnih sredstev preprosto zastarel in ga je treba nadomestiti z novim sodobnim sistemom, ki ustreza potrebam današnje Unije in njenih prebivalcev.
Created more than 30 years ago, in the (socio-)economic situation of the 70s, for a Union of six members, the own resources system simply is out-dated and needs to be replaced by a new modern system that serves the needs of today's Union and its citizens.
Vse izjeme (in izjeme izjem), ki so jih z leti dodali različni Evropski sveti so bile le "nujni popravki", s katerimi so vzdrževali operativnost sistema.
All the exceptions (and exceptions to the exceptions) that have been added over the years by different European Councils have simply been "emergency repairs" to keep the system at least operational.
Med tem časom je postal izjemno zapleten in, kar je še bolj pomembno, razvil se je v nekaj, ker je evropskim državljanom nerazumljivo.
Over the course of time, it has been made increasingly complicated and, more importantly, has developed into something simply incomprehensible to the European citizens.
Ter končno: težko je presoditi ali "prispevki" držav članic po vseh posebnih dogovorih dejansko odražajo njihovo "sposobnost prispevanja" ob katerem koli času (glej prilogo).
And finally: It is difficult to judge as to whether the Member States' "contributions", after all special arrangements have been honoured, accurately reflect their "ability to contribute" at any given time (see ANNEX).
Zato se poročevalec niti ni poskušal spreminjati določb sedanjega predloga Komisije.
This is why the rapporteur has not even started trying to amend the provisions of the current Commission proposal.
Globoko je prepričan, da prihodki EU potrebujejo korenito reformo na način, ki bi državam članicam preprečil izključno porabo iz sredstev Skupnosti na tistih področjih, kjer imajo največji dobiček, namesto da bi denar, ki je na voljo, namenile tistim politikam, ki koristijo Evropi kot celoti in ki so za njeno prihodnost najpomembnejše.
He is deeply convinced that EU revenue needs to be thoroughly reformed in a way which prevents Member States from only wanting to spend Community funds in those areas where they themselves profit most instead of concentrating the money available on those policies beneficial to Europe as a whole and most important for its future.
Komisija je bila pozvana, da izvede "Celovit in splošen pregled vseh področij odhodkov in prihodkov EU, vključno z britanskim popustom" ter o njem poroča v letu 2008/2009; ta pregled lahko nudi zadnjo priložnost v predvidljivi prihodnosti za oblikovaje novega resnično evropskega sistema, ki bi lahko začel delovati že na začetku naslednjega finančnega načrta, leta 2014.
The "full and wide-ranging review of all areas of EU expenditure and revenue, including the British rebate", which the Commission has been invited to undertake by the Brussels European Council of last December, with a view to reporting in 2008 / 2009, may offer a last chance in the foreseeable future, to create such a new, truly European, system which could then become operational at the beginning of the next financial framework starting in 2014.
Predlogi sprememb poročevalca
Rapporteur's amendments
Predlog spremembe 1 izraža mnenje poročevalca, da so posebne določbe za nekatere države članice v trenutnem sistemu neizogibne.
Amendment 1 also expresses the rapporteur's view that special provisions for certain Member States may be unavoidable in our current system.
So nezaželene in jih je treba obravnavati kot nujno zlo, dokler se v postopku pregleda ne ustvari nov, pravičen sistema.
They are, however, anything but desirable and should only be considered a necessary evil until a new, genuinely fair, system has been devised in the review process.
Končno predlog spremembe 3 želi poudariti, da je treba sklepe dialoga o temah lastnih sredstev, ki je precej časa potekal med nacionalnimi parlamenti in Evropskim parlamentom, med pregledom ustrezno upoštevati.
Finally, Amendment 3 already wants to point out that the conclusions of the dialogue on the own resources topic that has been led between the national parliaments and the European Parliament for some time now should be duly taken into account for the review.
Postopek posvetovanja z nacionalnimi parlamenti, ki se je začel lansko leto, se je zdaj razširil na različne ravni in začenja razvijati lastno dinamiko, ki se bo razvila v skupne smernice še pred uradnim začetkom postopka pregleda.
The consultation process with the national parliaments that has started last year has now spread to different levels and is beginning to develop its own dynamics that will hopefully result in the development of common guidelines before the formal beginning of the review process.
Lastna sredstva EU – možnosti za prihodnost
The EU's own resources - Possible future
Z namenom morebitnega pregleda sistema lastnih sredstev Evropske Unije in še preden je Evropski svet decembra lani Komisijo uradno pozval k pregledu v letu 2008/2009, je bila prihodnost lastnih sredstev že na dnevnem redu letnega srečanja Odbora za proračun EP, s predsedniki odborov za proračun nacionalnih parlamentov, ki je potekalo junija 2005.
With a view to a possible review of the European Union's system of own resources, and even before the European Council last December officially invited the European Commission to undertake such a review in 2008 / 2009, the future of own resources was already an item on the agenda of the annual meeting of the EP Committee on Budgets with the chairs of the national parliaments' budget committees which took place in June 2005.
Razpravljali so o predlogih reform, ki jih je leto pred tem predlagal komisarka Schreyer.
This was to discuss the reform proposals made by Commissioner Schreyer the year before.
Predlog komisarke Schreyer
The Schreyer proposals
Julija 2004 je Komisija v skladu s členom 9 sklepa o lastnih sredstvih
In July 2004, in accordance with Article 9 of the current own resources decision
Sklep Sveta 2000/597 vsebuje določbo, s katero se Komisija obvezuje, da bo izvedla oceno sistema pred 1. januarjem 2006, še zlasti ob upoštevanju učinkov širitve na financiranje proračuna EU, a tudi možnosti spremembe strukture lastnih sredstev z ustvarjanjem novih neodvisnih virov ter popravka proračunskega neravnovesja. predstavila poročilo o delovanju sistema lastnih sredstev
Council decision 2000/597 contains a clause that has obliged the Commission to undertake an assessment of the system before 1 January 2006 especially with a view to the effects of enlargement on the financing of the EU budget, but also to the possibility of modifying the structure of own resources by creating new autonomous resources and to the correction of the budgetary imbalances. , the Commission had presented its Report on the operation of the own resources system
( KOM(2004)0505 ). in tudi predloge za nov sklep o sistemu lastnih sredstev ter izvajanje uredbe o popravku proračunskih neravnovesij
( COM(2004)0505 ). as well as proposals for a new decision on the system of own resources and for an implementing regulation for the correction of budgetary imbalances
Oba predloga sta zajeta v KOM(2004)501 konč/2 .
Both proposals contained in COM(2004)501final/2 .
V poročilu je Komisija predlagala, naj Svet razmisli o uvedbi novega sistema financiranja za EU do leta 2014, ki je osredotočeno na glavni davčni vir, ki temelji na energiji ali DDV ali davku na dobiček podjetij.
In its report, the Commission had proposed that the Council reflect on the introduction by 2014 of a new funding system for the EU, centred around a main fiscal resource based on either energy, VAT or corporate income tax.
Ta vir osnovi davka bi nadomestil obstoječa sredstva in bi bil zato glede na raven financiranja EU nevtralen.
This tax based resource would replace existing resources and would therefore be neutral in terms of the level of EU funding.
Kot lastna sredstva na davčni osnovi so bili predlagani trije glavni kandidati, še posebej delež:
Three main candidates as a tax based own resource were proposed, namely a share of:
· davčne stopnje na porabo energije, omejeno na gorivo za cestni promet
· the tax rate on energy consumption, limited to motor fuel for road transport
