A. ker je na delovanje Odbora za peticije v letu 2009 vplival prehod s šestega parlamentarnega obdobja na sedmo, ko se je članstvo v njem znatno spremenilo, saj je dve tretjini njegovih članov novih,

C. ker je 1. decembra 2009 začela veljati Lizbonska pogodba, ki je v prizadevanjih za okrepitev legitimnosti in odgovornosti Evropske unije ustvarila potrebne pogoje za okrepljeno sodelovanje državljanov v postopkih odločanja,
C. whereas the Treaty of Lisbon came into force on 1 December 2009, creating the necessary premises for increased participation by citizens in the EU decision-making process, in an effort to reinforce its legitimacy and accountability,
D. ker Parlament neposredno zastopa državljane Evropske unije, njihova pravica nasloviti peticijo, ki je zapisana v pogodbi, pa jim omogoča, da se obrnejo na svoje predstavnike, kadar koli menijo, da so bile njihove pravice kršene,
D. whereas citizens of the EU are directly represented by Parliament, and the right of petition as enshrined in the Treaty offers them the means to address their representatives whenever they consider that their rights have been infringed,
E. ker ima izvrševanje evropske zakonodaje neposredne posledice za državljane, ki lahko najbolje ocenijo njeno učinkovitost in pomanjkljivosti ter pokažejo na vrzeli, ki jih je treba zapolniti pri zagotavljanju skladnosti s cilji Unije,
E. whereas enforcement of European legislation has a direct impact on citizens, who are the best placed to assess its effectiveness and its shortcomings and to signal remaining gaps that need to be filled in order to ensure adherence to the Union’s objectives,
F. ker se v primerih kršitve evropske zakonodaje evropski državljani posamezno in skupinsko obračajo na Parlament po pravna sredstva,
F. bearing in mind that European citizens, individually and collectively, turn to Parliament for redress when European law is broken,
G. ker je Parlament dolžan, da prek Odbora za peticije prouči take primere in stori vse, kar je v njegovi moči, da kršitve ustavi; ker Odbor za peticije pri iskanju kar najustreznejših in hitrih pravnih sredstev za državljane redno tesno sodeluje s Komisijo, drugimi parlamentarnimi odbori, evropskimi organi, agencijami in omrežji ter z državami članicami,
G. whereas Parliament, through its Committee on Petitions, has an obligation to investigate such concerns and to do its best to bring such breaches of the law to an end; whereas, in order to offer citizens the most appropriate and rapid remedies, the Committee on Petitions has continued to reinforce its cooperation with the Commission, other parliamentary committees, European bodies, agencies and networks, and Member States,
H. ker je Parlament leta 2009 prejel nekaj več peticij kot leta 2008 (1924 v primerjavi s 1849) in se je potrdil naraščajoči trend pošiljanja peticij po elektronski poti (v tej obliki je bilo v letu 2009 poslanih okoli 65 % peticij, v primerjavi s 60 % leto poprej),
H. whereas the number of petitions received by Parliament in 2009 was slightly higher than that recorded in 2008 (i.e. 1924 compared with 1849), and the growing trend for petitions to be submitted electronically was confirmed (about 65% were received in this form in 2009 as against 60% in 2008),
I. ker število nedopustnih peticij, prejetih v letu 2009, kaže, da bi bilo treba nameniti poseben poudarek obveščanju državljanov o pristojnostih Unije in vlogi njenih različnih institucij;
I. whereas the number of inadmissible petitions received in 2009 indicates that additional emphasis should be placed on informing citizens better about the competences of the Union and the role of its various institutions,
J. ker v mnogih primerih državljani peticije na Parlament naslovijo zaradi odločb pristojnih upravnih ali sodnih organov držav članic; ker državljani torej potrebujejo mehanizme, prek katerih lahko od državnih organov zahtevajo, naj v evropskem zakonodajnem procesu, pa tudi pri procesu izvrševanja zakonodaje, zastopajo njihove interese,
J. whereas, in many instances, citizens petition Parliament about decisions taken by the competent administrative or judicial authorities within Member States, and whereas citizens need mechanisms through which they can call national authorities to account for their part in both the European legislative process and in the legislative enforcement process,
K. ker bi morali državljane zlasti ozavestiti, da – kot je decembra 2009 ugotovil evropski varuh človekovih pravic v sklepu, s katerim je zaključil preiskavo pritožbe 822/2009/BU zoper Komisijo – so postopki pred nacionalnimi sodišči del izvajanja evropske zakonodaje v državah članicah in da Odbor za peticije ne more obravnavati zadev, ki so v postopku pred nacionalnimi sodišči, ali oceniti rezultat takega postopka,
K. whereas citizens should, in particular, be made aware that – as recognised by the European Ombudsman in the decision of December 2009 closing the inquiry into complaint 822/2009/BU against the Commission – national court proceedings are part of the process of implementing European legislation in the Member States, and that the Committee on Petitions cannot deal with issues subject to national court proceedings or review the outcome of such proceedings,
L. ker se Parlament sooča s posebnim problemom, ko prejme peticijo o tem, da nacionalno sodstvo domnevno ni zahtevalo predhodne sodbe Sodišča, čeprav bi bilo to moralo storiti po členu 267 PDEU, zlasti če Komisija ne uporabi svojih pristojnosti v skladu s členom 258 in ne ukrepa proti določeni državi članici,
L. whereas Parliament faces a particular problem when petitioned on alleged failures by the national judiciary to request a preliminary ruling from the Court of Justice in disregard of Article 267 TFEU, especially if the Commission does not use its powers under Article 258 to taken action against the Member State in question,
M. ker se postopek peticij – zaradi mehanizmov delovanja in ker je pravica naslavljanja peticij s pogodbo zagotovljena vsem državljanom in prebivalcem EU – razlikuje od drugih pravnih sredstev, ki so državljanom na voljo na ravni Unije, kot je na primer naslavljanje pritožb na evropskega varuha človekovih pravic ali na Komisijo,
M. whereas the petitions process – through its working mechanisms and because the right to petition is granted to all EU citizens and residents under the terms of the Treaty – differs from other remedies available to citizens at EU level, such as the submission of complaints to the European Ombudsman or to the Commission,
N. ker imajo državljani pravico, da od vseh evropskih institucij pričakujejo hitra in v rešitev usmerjena pravna sredstva ter visoko stopnjo preglednosti in jasnosti; ker je Parlament Komisijo večkrat zaprosil, naj kot varuhinja pogodb uporabi svojo posebno pravico ter ukrepa proti kršitvam evropske zakonodaje, na katere so opozorili vlagatelji peticij, zlasti če je do kršitev prišlo ob prenosu zakonodaje Unije,
N. whereas citizens are entitled to speedy and solution-oriented redress and to a high level of transparency and clarity from all European institutions and whereas Parliament has repeatedly requested the Commission to use its prerogatives as guardian of the Treaty to act against breaches of European legislation revealed by petitioners, especially where transposition of EU legislation at national level results in its infringement,
O. ker mnoge peticije še vedno opozarjajo na zaskrbljenost glede prenosa in izvajanja evropske zakonodaje o notranjem trgu in okolju ter ob upoštevanju prejšnjih pozivov Odbora za peticije Komisiji, naj na teh področjih okrepi učinkovit nadzor nad izvajanjem zakonodaje,
O. whereas many petitions continue to raise concerns about the transposition and implementation of European legislation on the internal market and the environment, and bearing in mind the previous calls made by the Committee on Petitions to the Commission to ensure that enforcement checks in these areas are strengthened and made more efficient,
P. ker sicer lahko Komisija skladnost z zakonodajo Unije v celoti preveri šele, ko so nacionalni organi že sprejeli končno odločitev, pa je vseeno zlasti pri okoljskih zadevah in v primerih, kjer je zelo pomemben čas, treba že v zgodnji fazi preveriti, ali lokalne, regionalne in nacionalne oblasti vse ustrezne postopkovne zahteve izvajajo pravilno in v skladu z zakonodajo Unije, po potrebi pa je treba opraviti podrobne študije o izvajanju in vplivu veljavne zakonodaje, da se pridobijo vse zahtevane informacije,
P. whereas, although the Commission can fully check compliance with EU law only when a final decision has been taken by national authorities, it is important, particularly in relation to environmental matters and all cases in which the time aspect is especially significant, to verify at an early stage that local, regional and national authorities correctly apply all relevant procedural requirements under EU law and, when necessary, to carry out detailed studies on the application and impact of the legislation in force, in order to obtain all the requisite information,
Q. ker je treba preprečiti dodatne nepovratne izgube biotske raznolikosti, zlasti na zaščitenih območjih Natura 2000, in ker so se države članice zavezale zagotavljanju varovanja posebnih ohranitvenih območij iz direktive o habitatih (92/43/EGS) in direktive o pticah (79/409/EGS),
Q. bearing in mind the importance of preventing further irreparable losses in biodiversity, especially inside Natura 2000 designated sites, and the commitment by Member States to ensure the protection of special conservation areas under the Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC) and the Birds Directive (79/409 EEC),
R. ker peticije opozarjajo na vpliv evropske zakonodaje na vsakdanje življenje državljanov Unije in ker priznava, da je treba sprejeti vse potrebne ukrepe za utrditev napredka pri krepitvi pravic državljanov Unije,
R. whereas petitions highlight the impact of European legislation on the everyday lives of EU citizens, and recognising the need to take all necessary steps to consolidate the progress achieved in reinforcing citizens’ EU rights,
S. ker je Odbor za peticije v prejšnjem poročilu o dejavnostih in mnenju o letnem poročilu Komisije o spremljanju uporabe prava Skupnosti zaprosil Komisijo, naj ga redno obvešča o fazah, v katerih so postopki za ugotavljanje kršitev iz peticij,
S. whereas, in its previous activity report and its opinion on the Commission’s annual report on monitoring the application of Community law, the Committee on Petitions requested to be kept informed regularly about the stages reached in infringement procedures the subject of which is also covered by petitions,
T. ker je osnovna odgovornost držav članic, da evropsko zakonodajo pravilno prenesejo in izvršujejo, in ker priznava, da so bile v letu 2009 mnoge med njimi tesno vključene v delo Odbora za peticije,
T. bearing in mind that Member States have the primary responsibility for correctly transposing and enforcing European legislation, and recognising that many of them have been increasingly involved in the work of the Committee on Petitions in 2009,
(KOM(2009) 622 konč.), 11.
Welcomes the Green Paper on a European Citizens’ Initiative
Resolucija Evropskega parlamenta z dne 7. maja 2009 s pozivom Komisiji za predložitev predloga Uredbe Evropskega parlamenta in Sveta o izvajanju državljanske pobude – P6_TA (2009)0389. , h kateri je Odbor za peticije prispeval mnenje; poziva Komisijo, naj določi podrobne izvedbene predpise, ki bodo jasno opredelili vlogo in obveznosti institucij, ki sodelujejo pri obravnavi in odločanju;
European Parliament Resolution of 7 May 2009 requesting the Commission to submit a proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on the implementation of the citizens’ initiative – P6_TA (2009)0389. , to which the Committee on Petitions contributed an opinion; urges the Commission establish comprehensible implementing rules which identify clearly the roles and obligations of the institutions involved in the examination and decision-making processes;
7. meni, da morajo Unija in države članice zagotoviti polno spoštovanje temeljnih pravic iz listine, in verjame, da bo listina pripomogla k razvoju koncepta državljanstva Unije;
Considers that both the Union and its Member States have an obligation to ensure that the fundamental rights included in the Charter are fully observed, and trusts that the Charter will help to develop the concept of citizenship of the Union;
12. opozarja na svojo resolucijo o delu evropskega varuha človekovih pravic v letu 2008 in spodbuja novega varuha, naj še naprej povečuje odprtost in odgovornost evropske uprave in zagotavlja, da bodo odločitve sprejete na kar najbolj odprt način in v čim tesnejši povezavi z državljani;
Recalls its resolution on the activities of the European Ombudsman in 2008 and encourages the newly re-elected Ombudsman to keep working to enhance the openness and accountability of European administration and to ensure that decisions are taken as openly as possible and at the closest possible level to citizens;
18. se zaveda, da ima Komisija osrednjo vlogo pri delu Odbora za peticije, ki se še naprej zanaša na njeno strokovno znanje in izkušnje pri ocenjevanju peticij, odkrivanju kršitev evropske zakonodaje in iskanju pravnih sredstev, in priznava napore Komisije za krajši odzivni čas ob njegovih prošnjah po preiskavah, da je mogoče zadeve, na katere opozarjajo državljani, reševati kolikor je mogoče hitro;
Acknowledges the central role that the Commission plays in the work of the Committee on Petitions, which continues to rely on its expertise when assessing petitions, identifying breaches of European legislation and seeking redress, and recognises the efforts made by the Commission to improve its overall response time to the Committee’s requests for investigations so that cases reported by citizens can be resolved as quickly as possible;
20. pozdravlja novoizvoljene komisarje – zlasti komisarja, pristojnega za medinstitucionalne odnose in administrativne zadeve – in izraža prepričanje, da bodo, kolikor je le mogoče, tesno in učinkovito sodelovali z Odborom za peticije ter ga upoštevali kot enega najpomembnejših komunikacijskih kanalov med državljani in evropskimi institucijami;
Welcomes the newly elected Commissioners – especially the Commissioner responsible for inter-institutional relations and administration – and trusts that they will cooperate with the Committee on Petitions as closely and effectively as possible and will respect it as one of the most important channels of communication between citizens and European institutions;
22. meni, da bi bilo nepotrebno zapravljanje časa in virov, če bi moral odbor v sporočilih Komisije za javnost iskati postopke ugotavljanja kršitev in nato ugotoviti, s katero peticijo se ujemajo, zlasti v primerih horizontalnih kršitev, ter prosi Komisijo, naj Odbor za peticije obvešča o vseh pomembnejših postopkih ugotavljanja kršitev;
Believes that tracking down infringement proceedings by following the Commission’s press releases and matching them to certain petitions would unnecessarily waste the Committee’s time and resources, especially in the case of horizontal infringements, and asks that the Commission inform the Petitions Committee of any relevant infringement proceedings;
25. pozdravlja prizadevanje Komisije, da bi razvila nadomestne načine za doslednejše izvajanje evropske zakonodaje, pa tudi pozitiven odnos nekaterih držav članic, ki že v zgodnji fazi izvajanja ustrezno ukrepajo za odpravo kršitev;
Welcomes the Commission’s efforts to develop alternative means of promoting better implementation of European legislation, and the positive attitude of certain Member States which take the necessary steps to correct breaches at the early stages of the implementation process;
27. poudarja, da je tesnejše sodelovanje z državami članicami za delo Odbora za peticije izjemno pomembno; meni, da bi bila pri tem ena od možnih rešitev v krepitvi sodelovanja z nacionalnimi parlamenti, zlasti v kontekstu Lizbonske pogodbe;
Stresses that closer cooperation with the Member States is extremely important for the work of the Petitions Committee; believes that one way of achieving this could be through more intensive cooperation with the national parliaments especially in the context of the Lisbon Treaty;
33. poudarja, da si je treba še naprej prizadevati za večjo preglednost upravljanja peticij: znotraj z neprestanim izboljševanjem aplikacije E-peticije, ki poslancem omogoča neposreden dostop do peticij, na zunaj pa z vzpostavitvijo uporabnikom prijaznega interaktivnega portala za peticije, ki bi Parlamentu omogočal učinkovitejši dostop do državljanov, javnosti pa da bi bila jasnejša glasovalni postopek v odboru ter njegove pristojnosti;
Stresses the need to keep working on increasing the transparency of petitions management: internally by constantly upgrading the E-petition application – which provides Members with direct access to petition files – and externally by establishing a user-friendly, interactive petitions portal which would enable Parliament to reach out more effectively to citizens, and would also make the Committee’s voting procedures and responsibilities clearer to the public;
35. se zaveda, da takšna pobuda ni možna brez denarnih sredstev, vendar pristojne upravne službe spodbuja, naj skupaj z Odborom za peticije poiščejo najustreznejše rešitve, saj bo tak portal izjemno pomemben za izboljšanje stikov med Parlamentom in državljani EU, pa tudi za manjše število nedopustnih peticij;
Acknowledges that implementing such an initiative would not be cost-free but urges the relevant administrative services to work with the Committee on Petitions to find the most suitable solutions, as such a portal will be of paramount importance not only in improving contact between Parliament and EU citizens but also in reducing the number of inadmissible petitions;
38. ponavlja poziv pristojnim upravnim službam, naj sprejmejo potrebne ukrepe za vzpostavitev elektronskega registra, ki bo državljanom omogočal, da v skladu s členom 202 poslovnika izrazijo ali umaknejo svojo podporo peticiji;
Reiterates its call to the relevant administrative departments to take the measures needed to set up an electronic register through which citizens may lend support to, or withdraw their support from, a petition in accordance with Rule 202;
Letno poročilo bi pravzaprav morali začeti z opozorilom, da leto 2009 ni bilo običajno leto: v tem letu so bile evropske volitve in začela je veljati Lizbonska pogodba.
One should start this annual report by underlining that 2009 was not an ordinary year, but a rather extraordinary one, dominated by the European elections and entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon.
Medtem ko bo posledice uveljavitve Lizbonske pogodbe na delo odbora verjetno čutiti v prihodnjih letih, pa so volitve že znatno vplivale na njegove vsakdanje dejavnosti.
If the impact of the latter event on the work of the Committee is likely to be felt in the coming years, the former had significant influence on the everyday activity of the Committee.
V nasprotju z drugimi parlamentarnimi odbori razpored dejavnosti Odbora za peticije ni določen glede na zakonodajni program Komisije, temveč ga določajo državljani, ki uveljavljajo svojo pravico do naslavljanja peticij na Evropski parlament.
Unlike other parliamentary committees, the Committee on Petitions distinguishes itself as one where the calendar of activities is not fixed around the legislative programme of the Commission, but is set by the citizens who exercise their right to petition the European Parliament.
Leto 2009 je zaznamoval prehod s šestega na sedmo zakonodajno obdobje, novi člani odbora pa so se morali seznaniti z njegovim celotnim delom.
2009 marked the transition from the sixth to the seventh legislature; the new Members of the Committee had to get acquainted with its overall work.
Kljub temu, da je bilo pred koncem zakonodajnega obdobja zaključeno veliko peticij, pa jih je bilo veliko prenesenih tudi v novo, zato so se morali člani hitro seznaniti z njimi, pa tudi z novimi, ki so prihajale.
Despite a considerable tiding up of the petitions at the end of the legislature, many files were carried over into the new one and, therefore, Members had to rapidly familiarise themselves with them as new petitions kept coming in.
Treba je dodati, da je postopek potekal dokaj tekoče in da sta se prejšnji in zdajšnji odbor kar najbolj potrudila, da je prehodno obdobje čim manj vplivalo na vlagatelje peticij.
One should note that the process was quite smooth and that both the previous and the current Committee did their best to ensure that petitioners would be the least affected by this transition period.
Vseeno pa je bilo treba na kasneje odložiti druge vidike rednega dela odbora, kot so na primer raziskovalni obiski.
Nevertheless, other aspects of the regular work of the Committee - such as the fact-finding visits - had to be postponed to 2010.
Glede na vse povedano skuša poročilo prikazati celovito sliko dela odbora v letu 2009, s tem pa omogočiti boljše razumevanje tega, kaj naj bi naslavljanje peticij na Evropski parlament pomenilo, kakšni so možni zaključki postopka, kateri uspehi so bili doseženi in kje so njegove meje.
Against this background, the 2009 Report intends to offer a comprehensible picture of the activity of the Committee during the year and ultimately a better understanding of what petitioning the European Parliament means, the possible outcome of the process, its success-stories and its limits.
Pri oceni dela odbora so pomembno kvantitativno orodje statistični podatki o številu prejetih peticij, ki jih je odbor obravnaval ali zaključil, o državah, na katere se nanašajo, in o njihovi tematiki.
Statistics such as those on the number of petitions received, closed or dealt with by the Committee, of the concerned countries or topics represents an important quantitative tool in assessing the work of the Committee.
Skupno sliko zaključijo dodatni vidiki, kot so odnosi z drugimi evropskimi institucijami, nacionalnimi ali regionalnim organi ter institucionalne spremembe, ki so neposredno vplivale na delo odbora.
Additional aspects like the relations with other European institutions, national and regional authorities or institutional changes with direct impact on the activity of the Committee come together to complete the overall picture.
S poročilom nenazadnje želimo oceniti doseženi napredek pri izvajanju prejšnjih priporočil za boljše dela odbora in opozarjamo na nekatere največje izzive, ki jih v delo odbora vnaša Lizbonska pogodba.
Last but not least the Report examines the progress achieved in implementing previous recommendations aiming to improve the work of the Committee and highlights some of the biggest challenges ahead in light of the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon.
Naslavljanje peticij na Parlament – temeljna pravica iz člena 227 Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije (prej člen 194)
Submitting petitions to Parliament - a fundamental right set in Article 227 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (former Article 194)
Lizbonska pogodba ponovno potrjuje pravico nasloviti peticijo na Evropski parlament kot temeljno prvino evropskega državljanstva.
The entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon has reconfirmed the right to petition the European Parliament as a cornerstone element of the European citizenship.
