– having regard to the findings of the hearing held in its Committee on Development on 18 January 2005,
– ob upoštevanju poročila Odbora za razvoj ( A6‑0183/2005 ),
– having regard to the report of the Committee on Development ( A6‑0183/2005 ),
A. ker je Evropska investicijska banka (EIB) največji svetovni javni posojilodajalec, katerega raven posojil znaša 40 milijard EUR,
A. whereas the European Investment Bank (EIB) is the world’s largest public lender, its level of lending amounting to EUR 40 billion,
B. ker EIB deluje v več kot stotih državah v razvoju, v sredozemskem prostoru, afriških, karibskih in pacifiških državah (AKP), Latinski Ameriki in Aziji ter izvaja pomembne razvojne programe EU v sredozemskem prostoru in državah AKP, čeprav ureditve za posojila državam v razvoju niso opredeljena s sodobnim političnim mandatom,
B. whereas the EIB operates in over 100 developing countries, in the Mediterranean region, in the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) States, in Latin America and in Asia, implementing important EU development programmes in the Mediterranean region and in the ACP States, although the arrangements for lending to developing countries is not defined by a modern political mandate,
C. ob zavedanju, da si je EIB v zadnjih letih močno prizadevala upoštevati konstruktivne predloge Evropskega parlamenta,
C. aware that the EIB has made great efforts in recent years to follow the constructive proposals put forward by the European Parliament,
D. ker EIB trenutno preverja svojo politiko o dostopu javnosti do informacij, saj mora upoštevati zahteve, ki izhajajo iz uporabe Aarhuške konvencije o dostopu do informacij, udeležbi javnosti pri odločanju in dostopu do pravnega varstva v okoljskih zadevah,
D. whereas the EIB is currently reviewing its policy on public access to information which must take account of requirements resulting from the application to European institutions of the Aarhus Convention on Access to Information, Public Participation in Decision‑Making and Access to Justice in Environmental Matters,
E. ker EIB deluje kot neodvisna banka, ki pa je kljub temu zavezana svojim delničarjem – 25 državam članicam EU,
E. whereas the EIB operates as an independent bank that is, nevertheless, bound by commitments to its shareholders – the 25 Member States of the EU,
F. ker je EIB v zvezi s svojimi kreditnimi dejavnostmi zunaj EU v svojem novem okviru za presojo vpliva na razvoj uspešno uresničila podporo vsaj za projekte v okviru Cotonoujskega investicijskega instrumenta, ki jo je leta 2004 v svoji izjavi o okoljskem vplivu izrazila dokumentu „Statement by Financial Institutions on Environment and Sustainable Development“ ter t.i. „Equator Principles“,
F. whereas, as far as its lending activities outside the EU are concerned, the EIB is taking the welcome step of giving practical expression in its new Development Impact Assessment Framework to the endorsement it gave in its 2004 Environmental Statement of the ‘UNEP Statement by Financial Institutions on the Environment & Sustainable Development’ and of the ‘Equator Principles’, at least for projects under the Cotonou Investment Facility,
G. ob upoštevanju posebno tveganih razmer za kreditne dejavnosti v mnogih državah v razvoju, s katerimi se mora znati spopadati uprava EIB,
G. aware of the particular risks surrounding lending in many developing countries, which the EIB must be in a position to combat,
H. ob upoštevanju prizadevanj Evropske unije in mednarodne skupnosti, da v razvojni politiki dosežeta odločilen premik z uresničitvijo razvojnih ciljev tisočletja (RCT),
H. aware of the efforts of the European Union and of the international community to make a long overdue, decisive breakthrough in development policy by putting the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) into practice,
4. poziva Komisijo, da zagotovi boljšo povezanost EIB in njenega načrtovanja projekta z načrtovanjem Komisije in držav članic, v skladu z obveznostmi, sprejetimi v Barceloni, v zvezi z boljšo koordinacijo in usklajevanjem ukrepov razvojne politike;
Calls on the Commission to ensure better integration of the EIB and of its project planning into the planning of the Commission and of the Member States, in accordance with the commitments made in Barcelona with regard to improved coordination and harmonisation of development policy measures;
6. izreka pohvalo EIB in 10 partnericam EDFI za ustanovitev European Financing Partners S.A. in poziva EIB, da si prizadeva za nadaljnje projekte financiranja Skupnosti z drugimi finančnimi institucijami za razvoj ter da posebej preveri modele za porazdelitev tveganja s prevzemom „First Loss Tranche“;
Commends the setting‑up by the EIB and ten of the EDFI partners of European Financing Partners S.A. and calls on the EIB to strive for more Community‑funded projects with other development finance institutions and, in particular, to consider risk‑sharing models involving the taking on of a first‑loss tranche;
8. izreka pohvalo EIB, ker že v začetni fazi spremljanja projekta upošteva mnenja nevladnih organizacij in javnosti, vendar pa poziva EIB, da še v preizkusni fazi odobritve kredita izvede posvetovanje o večji lokalni udeležbi in sprejemljivosti ter rezultate tega v pisni obliki predloži Komisiji in državam članicam;
Commends the EIB for taking into account the positions of NGOs and of the public as early as in the follow‑up stage to project monitoring, but calls on the EIB, in the interests of increasing local participation and acceptance, to carry out this consultation at the pre‑appraisal stage of credit authorisation and to document the outcome thereof for the Commission and the Member States;
10. poziva države članice kot delničarke banke, da EIB zagotovijo ustrezen razvojnopolitični mandat za dosego RCT v regiji ALA ter da ne dajejo več prednosti zunanji gospodarski pomoči;
Calls on the Member States, as the Bank’s shareholders, to provide the EIB with a development policy mandate appropriate to attaining the MDGs for the ALA region and to distance themselves from the priority hitherto awarded to external economic aid;
13. poziva Svet in Komisijo, da pripravita potrebna sredstva, tako da se bodo lahko sredstva, ki jih ima EIB na razpolago za obnovo po cunamijih, primerno porazdelila v skladu z merili Mednarodne agencije za razvoj (MAR);
Calls on the Council and the Commission to make the necessary resources available so that the funds made available by the EIB for tsunami reconstruction aid, in line with the criteria of the International Development Agency (IDA), may be duly allocated;
15. poziva EIB, da bolje uporabi instrument subvencioniranja obresti, predviden s Cotonoujskim sporazumom, in s tem zadolženim državam v razvoju omogoči, da izkoristijo naložbe na področju javnih storitev splošnega gospodarskega pomena;
Calls on the EIB to make greater use of the interest subsidy instrument provided for in the Cotonou Agreement in order to enable indebted developing countries to benefit from investment in the area of public services of general economic interest;
23. poziva EIB, da „Okvir za presojo razvojnih vplivov projektov investicijskega instrumenta“ uskladi z mednarodnimi standardi presoje vpliva na razvoj in omogoči vključitev pripomb Evropskega parlamenta in mednarodne civilne družbe v ta postopek preverjanja;
Calls on the EIB to align its ‘Development Impact Assessment Framework of Investment Facility Projects’ with international standards of development assessment, and to facilitate the inclusion of comments by Parliament and international civil society in this revision process;
- s financiranjem projektov v vseh štirih okoljskih kategorijah EIB, vključno s projekti za varstvo narave;
- the financing of projects in all of the four EIB ‘environment’categories including, in particular, projects for the protection of the natural environment;
- z oceno vseh projektov v zvezi z izkoriščanjem vodne energije v zgodnji fazi projekta v skladu s smernicami Svetovne komisije za jezove (WCD);
- an assessment of all hydropower projects early in the project cycle against the guidelines of the World Commission on Dams (WCD);
- skladno z RCT s povečanjem posojil v vodnem sektorju s 3% za države AKP in 8% za države ALA na vsaj 20% sredstev za regionalna posojila, zlasti s posojili lokalnim podjetjem za manjše projekte trajnostnega razvoja;
- in line with the MDGs, an increase in lending in the water sector from the current 3 % for ACP and 8 % for ALA countries to at least 20 % of its regional lending portfolio, particularly through lending to local companies for sustainable micro-projects;
26. poziva Komisijo, da podpre povečanje posojil EIB za okoljske projekte v regijah držav ALA in AKP s 3% subvencioniranjem obresti, kar se je izkazalo za uspešno v okviru MEDA, in 5% subvencioniranjem obresti za nove projekte pridobivanja obnovljive energije;
Calls on the Commission to support increased EIB lending for environmental projects in the ALA and ACP regions through the granting of interest subsidies of 3 %, as is successfully practised in the MEDA Framework, and through the granting of interest subsidies of 5 % for new renewable sources of energy projects;
In ihrem Jahresbericht 2004 Entwicklungspolitik und Drittlandshilfe der EG verweist die Europäische Kommission darauf, dass sich die Europäische Union und ihre Mitgliedstaaten in ihren entwicklungspolitischen Zielen klar zu den Millennium Development Goals der Vereinten Nationen bekennen.
In its 2004 Annual Report on EC Development Policy and External Assistance, the European Commission states that the European Union and its Member States declare their clear support for the United Nations’ Millennium Development Goals.
Neben ihren anderen Instrumenten der Entwicklungsfinanzierung steht den Mitgliedstaaten der Union mit der Europäischen Investitionsbank (EIB) im Kreditsektor ein Instrument zur Verfügung, um das sie die Welt beneiden könnte.
In addition to their other instruments for financing development policy, the EU Member States have at their disposal a credit instrument, in the form of the European Investment Bank (EIB), that is the envy of the world.
Stolz bezeichnet sich die EIB in ihren Dokumenten zur Außendarstellung als "EU's policy driven bank".
The EIB proudly describes itself in its promotional material as the EU’s ‘policy‑driven bank’.
In der Tätigkeit der EIB außerhalb der Europäischen Union kommen die jüngeren Entwicklungen in den entwicklungspolitischen Zielsetzungen der Eignerstaaten der Bank jedoch noch nicht hinreichend zum Tragen.
However, in the EIB’s activities outside the European Union, recent developments in the development policy objectives set by the countries that are the Bank’s shareholders have not had the requisite effect.
Die gemeinsame Vereinbarung der Millennium Development Goals im September 2000 sollte ein historischer Beitrag zur Harmonisierung und Effizienzsteigerung weltweiter Entwicklungsbemühungen sein.
The agreement reached on the Millennium Development Goals in September 2000 was intended to be a historical contribution to harmonising and increasing the efficiency of worldwide development activities.
Wenn im September 2005 das bisher Erreichte auf einer Konferenz der Vereinten Nationen evaluiert werden wird, dann wird sich auch die EIB fragen lassen müssen, welchen Beitrag sie zum Erreichen der vereinbarten Ziele geleistet hat.
When the achievements to date are analysed at a United Nations conference in September 2005, the EIB will also have to answer questions about the contribution that it has made towards the attainment of the objectives shared by all.
Zwar betrachtet die EIB ihren Beitrag zur Armutsbekämpfung, zu dem sie im Abkommen von Cotonou für die AKP-Staaten mandatiert wurde, vornehmlich in der Stimulation von Investitionen im privaten Sektor.
It is true that the EIB views its contribution to fighting poverty, a task conferred on it with respect to the ACP States by the Cotonou Agreement, principally in stimulating investment in the private sector.
Zu Recht weist sie auch darauf hin, dass sie für die ALA-Region (Asien und Lateinamerika) nicht einmal über ein entwicklungspolitisches Mandat verfügt, sondern dort vornehmlich nach Kriterien der Außenwirtschaftsförderung aktiv wird.
It rightly states that it does not even have a development policy mandate for the ALA (Asia and Latin America) region, but it is becoming active there, principally on the basis of criteria relating to external economic support.
Doch es entspricht dem in den Vereinbarungen der MDG zum Ausdruck kommenden Willen der Staaten, die Aktivitäten zur Förderung des privaten Sektors nicht mehr isoliert zu betreiben, sondern in den Kontext des Erreichens der gesamten Ziele zu stellen.
However, it is in keeping with the will of the Member States, as expressed in the agreements reached over the MDGs, that activities supporting the private sector should not be carried out in isolation but placed in the context of attaining all the objectives.
Der EIB mangelt es derzeit am Instrumentarium, die Effizienz ihrer Kreditvergabe an diesen Zielen zu messen.
The EIB currently lacks the means to measure the efficiency of its lending activities against these objectives.
Sie würdigt damit nicht die Anstrengungen der Kommission, die einen Satz von 10 Hauptindikatoren zur Bewertung der Zielführung von Projekten orientiert an den MDG aus den dort festgelegten 48 Indikatoren identifiziert hat.
As a result, the Bank is failing to live up to the efforts of the Commission, which has identified a set of 10 main indicators to help evaluate MDG‑oriented projects from the 48 indicators included in the MDGs.
Gleichzeitig gibt es keine hinreichende Koordinierung für die entwicklungsrelevanten Aktivitäten der EIB mit jenen der Kommission und der Mitgliedstaaten.
There is also a lack of coordination between the EIB’s development activities and those of the Commission and of the Member States.
In der Praxis wirken die unkoordinierten Aktivitäten daher mitunter kontraproduktiv.
The effect in practice is that these uncoordinated activities prove counterproductive.
Bank, Kommission, Mitgliedstaaten, Europäisches Parlament, Vertreter der Zielländer und NGO gehören künftig an einen Tisch, um das wichtige Ziel der Harmonisierung und Effizienzsteigerung entwicklungspolitischer Maßnahmen zu erreichen.
The Bank, the Commission, the Member States, the European Parliament, the representatives of the countries targeted and NGOs should, in future, all sit at the same table in order to achieve the important objective of harmonising and increasing the efficiency of development policy measures.
Notwendig ist hierbei auch eine Anpassung der Maßnahmen an die seit Unterzeichnung des Cotonou-Abkommens gewonnenen Erkenntnisse.
Measures must also be tailored to the experience acquired since the signing of the Cotonou Agreement.
Ein striktes Setzen auf die Entwicklung des privaten Investitionsaufkommens, wie es in dem Abkommen noch zum Ausdruck kommt, hat sich insbesondere in der Daseinsvorsorge als unwirksam erwiesen.
Strict emphasis on developing income from private investment, as is still expressed in the Agreement, has proved ineffective, particularly in the area of services of general interest.
Die EIB selbst bilanziert, dass sich Investoren in den Bereichen Wasser und Elektrizität inzwischen weitgehend zurückgezogen haben.
The EIB itself considers that there has been a widespread withdrawal of investors in the water and electricity sectors in the interim.
Das Millennium-Ziel, bis 2015 den Anteil der Menschen ohne Zugang zu sicherem Trinkwasser zu halbieren, offenbart sich damit als nur dann erreichbar, wenn der öffentliche Sektor mit der Bereitstellung beauftragt und finanziell hierzu in die Lage versetzt wird.
Attainment of the Millennium Goal of halving the number of people without access to clean drinking water by 2015 will be possible only if the public sector is given responsibility for provision and put financially in a position to do so.
Die Bank weist zu Recht darauf hin, dass es ihr durch die Auflagen des IWF in der Regel nicht möglich ist, Projekte des öffentlichen Sektors zu finanzieren.
The Bank rightly indicates that IMF conditions generally make it impossible to finance projects in the public sector.
Es ist daher dringend notwendig, der Daseinsvorsorge dienende Investitionen aus der Haushaltsbilanzierung der Länder durch den IWF herauszunehmen.
Therefore, it is a matter of urgency for investments for services of general interest to be taken from the IMF’s calculation of national budgets.
Wären die aus Mangel an Zugang zu Trinkwasser sterbenden Menschen Kunden großer Lebensversicherungen, so wäre die Bereitschaft zum Überdenken der Bilanzierungskriterien möglicher Weise bereits größer.
If the people dying as a result of a lack of clean drinking water were customers of major life assurance companies, there would perhaps already be a greater readiness to ignore the assessment criteria.
Insbesondere im Wassersektor empfiehlt sich auch nach Meinung von Experten der EIB als Königsweg eine Mischfinanzierung aus Krediten und Kofinanzierung durch die Geberländer.
Particularly in the water sector, the EIB’s experts recommend mixed financing packages as the best way forward, made up of loans and cofinancing from donor countries.
Positive Erfahrungen konnte hier die deutsche Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau gewinnen.
Positive results in this area have been achieved by Germany’s Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau [Credit Institution for Reconstruction].
Eine solche Mischung aus zurück zu zahlenden und nicht rückzahlbaren Mitteln analog zu den Projektförderungen nach IDA-Kriterien wäre auch notwendig, um mit maximaler Effizienz EIB-Aktivitäten in Ausnahmesituationen wie den Wiederaufbaumaßnahmen nach Naturkatastrophen zu ermöglichen.
A mixed package made up of repayable and non‑repayable loans, comparable with support for projects on the basis of IDA criteria, would also be required in order to maximise the efficiency of EIB activities in exceptional situations, such as reconstruction measures after natural disasters.
Aktuell und exemplarisch steht die Welt vor der Aufgabe, im Angesicht der Tsunami-Katastrophe ihre Solidarität und ihre Handlungsfähigkeit zu beweisen.
A topical example is the need for the world to show its solidarity and ability to act effectively in the aftermath of the tsunami disaster.
Nach dem Willen der Europäischen Union soll die EIB für bis zu 1 Milliarde Euro Projektmittel für den notwendigen Wiederaufbau in der betroffenen Region bereitstellen.
The European Union wants the EIB to make EUR 1 billion in project funding available for essential reconstruction in the affected region.
Doch hohe strukturelle Hindernisse stehen dem Wirksamwerden dieser Mittel derzeit im Weg.
However, considerable structural obstacles currently hamper the development of this funding.
Das Mandat ALA III erlaubt der EIB zwar, in der Region tätig zu werden, doch müssen geförderte Projekte europäischen Wirtschaftsinteressen dienen oder europäische Unternehmen beteiligen.
While the ALA III mandate allows the EIB to act in the region, the projects that it supports in so doing must serve European economic interests or involve European firms.
Es wäre ein politischer Skandal, würde sich die EU vor den Augen der Öffentlichkeit durch Maßnahmen der Außenwirtschaftsförderung an Krediten für die Region selbst gesundstoßen.
It would be a political scandal if the EU were manifestly to line its own pockets on the back of loans for the region granted through measures of external economic support.
Nur eine Erweiterung des ALA-Mandats um entwicklungspolitische Zielsetzungen oder die Schaffung eines speziellen Nothilfemandats können einen solchen Skandal verhindern.
Only an extension of the ALA mandate to include development policy goals or the creation of a special emergency aid mandate can avert such a scandal.
Zweites zentrales Hindernis für den Einsatz der in der EIB bereitliegenden Mittel in den betroffenen Ländern ist der Missstand, dass Länder, die diese Kreditmittel in Anspruch nehmen würden, in ihrem internationalen Kreditrating herabgestuft würden, wodurch künftig notwendige Kredite für sie teurer würden.
Another central obstacle to the deployment of available EIB funds in the countries affected is the deplorable state of affairs whereby countries that want to accept these funds will have their international credit rating lowered as a result, thereby making future loans more expensive.
