Leta 1993 je bil uveden zapleten sistem za izmenjavo informacij, ki predvideva, da (i) državljani, ki se želijo vpisati, morajo poleg običajnega preverjanja identitete in bivališča predložiti tudi uradno izjavo o tem, da nameravajo glasovati ali kandidirati le enkrat, in če želijo kandidirati, uradno potrdilo pristojnega organa matične države, da jim ni bila odvzeta pravica do kandidiranja; (ii) organi države članice prebivanja morajo preveriti, ali je bila posamezniku onemogočena uveljavitev volilne pravice v matični državi, in morajo v vsakem primeru obvestiti matično državo članico o identiteti njenih državljanov, ki so registrirani za glasovanje in kandidiranje v njihovem kraju bivanja; ter (iii) organi matične države morajo zagotoviti, da ti posamezniki ne volijo ali kandidirajo v svoji matični državi.
In 1993 a complicated system of information exchange was put in place whereby (i) the citizen wishing to enrol has to provide, beyond the normal identity and residency checks, a formal declaration of his or her intention to vote or to stand only once, and, if wishing to be a candidate, an official attestation from a competent authority of the home state that he or she is not disqualified from standing; (ii) the authorities in the member state of residence have to check whether the individual is banned from exercising his or her electoral rights in their home member state and, in any case, they have to inform the home member state of the identity of its nationals registered to vote and stand in their place of residence; and (iii) the authorities of the home state have to ensure that the same individuals do not vote or stand at home.
Nekatere težave
Some problems
Praktične izkušnje kažejo, da so upravni postopki za potrebno izmenjavo informacij preveč okorni in ne dovoljujejo učinkovitega dela in pravočasne učinkovitosti.
Practical experience suggests that the administrative procedures for the necessary information exchange are too cumbersome either to work efficiently or to be effective in time.
Zlasti zahteva po predložitvi uradnega potrdila o izpolnjevanju pogojev za kandidiranje se je za večino držav članic izkazala za nepremagljivo oviro.
In particular, the need to provide a formal attestation of eligibility to stand as a candidate proves to be an insurmountable obstacle in the case of most member states.
Postalo je jasno, da v 27-članski EU obstajajo velike razlike na področju volilne zakonodaje ter nacionalnega in/ali decentraliziranega lokalnega nadzora volitev, prav tako se je pokazalo, da bo približevanje tovrstnih nacionalnih praks, za katerega se zavzema EU, najverjetneje zelo zamudno, drago in nadležno.
It has become clear that electoral law and its national and/or decentralised local supervision remain hugely diverse across the EU-27, and, equally, that approximation of these national practices championed by the EU would be very time-consuming, costly and intrusive.
Posebne težave so se pojavile v zvezi z opredelitvijo pristojnih organov, obliko podatkov, pomanjkanjem rokov in prečrkovanjem imen.
Specific problems relate to the identification of the competent authority, the formatting of data, lack of deadlines, and transliteration.
V letu 2004 je kandidiralo le 57 nedržavljanov
In 2004 only 57 non-nationals stood as candidates
Od skupaj 8974 kandidatov. .
Out of a total of 8974 candidates. .
Vendar Komisija v svoji raziskavi ugotavlja, da se postopno povečuje število ljudi, ki želijo uveljaviti svojo pravico do glasovanja izven matične države
Nevertheless, the Commission's research has identified a gradual rise in the number of people wishing to exercise their right to vote outside their home state
Okvirne številke Komisije napovedujejo podvojitev tega števila od leta 1994 do leta 2004. .
The Commission's tentative figures suggest a doubling of the number from 1994 to 2004. .
Zaradi večje mobilnosti prebivalstva po širitvi leta 2004 lahko pričakujemo, da se bo ta trend nadaljeval.
With the increased mobility of the population subsequent to the 2004 enlargement, we can expect that trend to continue.
Eden od razlogov za doslej tako nizko udeležbo je odvračanje nedržavljanov - v nekaterih primerih je celo prepovedano - od vstopanja v politične stranke v državi prebivanja.
One reason for such low participation to date is that non-nationals are discouraged ‑ and in some cases even prohibited ‑ from joining political parties in their state of residence.
Prav je, da je Komisija zaradi tega stanja zaskrbljena, Parlament pa bi moral spodbuditi nadaljnja prizadevanja za informiranje nedržavljanov o njihovih volilnih pravicah (iz člena 12 Direktive 93/109/ES).
The Commission is right to be concerned about this state of affairs, and Parliament should encourage all further efforts to inform non-nationals of their electoral rights (under Article 12 of Directive 93/109/EC).
Politične stranke morajo sprejeti vse državljane EU, ne glede na njihovo državljanstvo.
Political parties should be welcoming to all EU citizens whatever their nationality.
Politične stranke na evropski ravni imajo posebno dolžnost, da spodbujajo dejavno sodelovanje državljanov EU v političnih procesih Evropske unije;
Political parties at European level have a particular duty to encourage the active engagement of EU citizens in the political processes of the European Union;
Predlagane spremembe
Proposed changes
Komisija po opravljeni študiji volitev v letu 2004 in po širokem posvetovanju zaključuje, da je malo dokazov o dvojnem glasovanju na evropskih parlamentarnih volitvah
Having conducted its study of the 2004 elections and having consulted widely, the Commission concludes that there is very little evidence of double voting in European Parliamentary elections
Bolj bi veljalo, da premalo ljudi voli enkrat, kot pa bojazen, da bi ljudje volili dvakrat (ali večkrat). .
Rather, it might be said that the lack of people voting once is more of an issue than the threat of people voting twice (or more). .
Upoštevala je številne možnosti, vključno z ohranjanjem sedanjega sistema, ki ni spodbuden za številne posameznike, ki želijo v celoti uporabljati široke volilne pravice, ki izhajajo iz državljanstva EU.
It considered a number of options, including staying with the present system with its depressing effect on the number of individuals choosing to exploit their wider electoral rights as derived from EU citizenship.
Komisija zato predlaga številne ukrepe, ki so namenjeni poenostavitvi postopka in zmanjšanju bremena volilnih oblasti in posameznikov.
The Commission therefore proposes a number of measures designed to simplify the procedure and to lessen the burden on electoral authorities and individuals.
Predlaga odpravo obstoječega sistema izmenjave informacij in da se ohrani izjavo posameznika, ki se obvezuje, da ne voli ali kandidira dvakrat, ter okrepitev naknadnega preverjanja ter zvišanje kazni za kršitev.
It proposes to scrap the current information exchange system but maintain the individual declaration not to vote or stand twice, strengthen ex-post checks and increase penalties for infringement.
Odpraviti je treba tudi posebno preverjanje primernosti kandidatov.
The special attestation of eligibility for candidates would also be abolished.
Po mnenju poročevalca mora Parlament te tehnične predloge sprejeti brez pridržka.
In the view of the rapporteur, Parliament should welcome these technical proposals without reservation.
Parlament mora tudi pozdraviti namero, da bodo te spremembe začele veljati pravočasno za volitve v letu 2009, ter uvedbo klavzule o reviziji po letu 2009 in zahtevo, da države članice obveščajo Komisijo o prenosu direktive v njihovo nacionalno zakonodajo.
Parliament should also welcome the intention to give effect to these changes in time for the 2009 elections, the inclusion of a revision clause post-2009, and the requirement for member states to inform the Commission about how they transpose the directive into national law.
Parlament mora vztrajati, da ga Komisija v celoti obvešča o napredku pri prenosu.
Parliament should insist that it is kept fully informed by the Commission about the progress of transposition.
Cilji Parlamenta
Parliament’s objectives
Tehnična vsebina predlaganih sprememb Parlamentu ne bi imela povzročati težav, ostaja pa vprašanje tolmačenja primarne zakonodaje, ki je po mnenju poročevalca preveč omejevalna pri uresničevanju pravice kandidiranja kandidata na volitvah v državi članici, ki ni njegova matična država.
While Parliament would have no difficulty with the technical substance of the changes proposed, there remains the matter of the interpretation of the primary law which interpretation, in the view of the rapporteur, is excessively narrow in respect of giving effect to the right to stand as a candidate in a member state other than one’s own.
Problem je še posebej pereč pri morebitnih kandidatih z dvojnim državljanstvom.
The problem is particularly acute with respect to potential candidates who hold dual nationality.
Parlament si prizadeva kar najbolj povečati število ljudi, ki želijo v celoti uresničevati volilno pravico.
Parliament’s interest is in maximising the number of people who choose to exercise their electoral rights to the full.
Ker se mobilnost državljanov v notranjih mejah Unije povečuje, je zaželeno, da je volilna pravica na enotnem političnem trgu kolikor je mogoče prenosna.
In the age of increased citizen mobility across the internal frontiers of the Union, it is desirable to make electoral rights as portable as possible within the single political market.
Opozarja se, da akt iz leta 1976 prepoveduje dvojno glasovanje (člen 9).
One recalls that the 1976 Act prohibits double voting (Article 9).
Ne prepoveduje pa kandidiranja na volitvah v več kot eni volilni enoti.
It does not prohibit standing as a candidate in more than one electoral constituency.
Vprašanje kandidiranja zato ureja nacionalna zakonodaja (člen 8).
The matter of candidature, therefore, remains a matter for national law (Article 8).
'Podrobna ureditev', določena za to direktivo v členu 19(2) se mora omejiti na to, kar je nujno potrebno za uresničevanje obeh predvidenih pravic - glasovanje in kandidiranje na volitvah v državi, ki ni matična država.
The ‘detailed arrangements’ prescribed for this Directive in Article 19(2) must be limited to what is strictly necessary to give effect to the two intended rights – that is, both to vote and to stand in a state other than one’s own.
To vključuje ureditev za države članice, da zagotavljajo spoštovanje prava.
This includes arrangements for member states to ensure that the law is observed.
Svet pa na ravni EU ne more uvesti novih pogojev za uresničevanje pravice do kandidiranja, poleg tistih, ki so predvideni v nacionalni zakonodaji ali ki se od nje razlikujejo.
The Council may not, however, introduce new conditions at the EU level for the exercise of the right to stand as a candidate other than or beyond those foreseen in national law.
Direktiva 93/109 je zato nesorazmerna z najmanj treh vidikov.
Directive 93/109 is therefore disproportionate in at least three respects.
Prvič, v skladu s členom 3(b) lahko državljan glasuje ali kandidira, 'razen če mu je ta pravica odvzeta na podlagi členov 6 in 7'.
First, according to its Article 3(b), the citizen can vote or stand ‘unless deprived of those rights pursuant to Articles 6 and 7’.
Država prebivanja je po členu 7 dolžna državljanu preprečiti glasovanje takoj, ko se dokaže, da je osebi v matični državi 's posamično civilnopravno ali kazenskopravno sodno odločbo' ta pravica odvzeta.
Under Article 7 the state of residence is obliged to stop a citizen from voting as soon as it is proven that this person is deprived of those rights ‘through an individual civil law or criminal law decision’ in the home state.
Država prebivanja mora sprejeti preventivni ukrep ne glede na to, ali bi bila posamezniku volilna pravica odvzeta po nacionalni zakonodaji države prebivanja za enako kršitev in na enak način.
The state of residence must take such preventative action regardless of whether the individual would have been deprived of his or her electoral rights according to the national law of the state of residence concerned for the same misdemeanour and in the same manner.
Država prebivanja ni upravičena do uporabe diskrecije za vsak primer posebej v smislu svoje nacionalne zakonodaje.
The state of residence is not entitled to use its discretion on a case by case basis in the light of its own national legislation.
Zaradi tega bi lahko bili posamezniki krivično kaznovani in diskriminirani na podlagi svoje narodnosti.
Therefore, it could be that an individual is unfairly penalised and discriminated against on the grounds of his or her nationality.
Poleg tega je po členu 6(1) državljanu odvzeta pravica do kandidiranja, če je ta zakonito odvzeta 'po zakonodaji države članice prebivanja ali matične države članice'.
Moreover, under Article 6(1) a citizen is precluded from standing if legally deprived of his or her right to stand ‘under either the law of the Member State of residence or the law of his home Member State’.
Drugi vidik je glede pravice glasovanja deležen enake kritike, kot je bila že izražena.
The second aspect provokes the same criticism as formulated above with respect to the right to vote.
Zanimivo je, da se ta splošna prepoved nanaša le na evropske parlamentarne volitve.
Interestingly, this blanket prohibition only pertains to European Parliamentary elections.
Pri občinskih volitvah pa ima država prebivanja svobodo izbire: '... lahko zagotovi, da ... se odvzame ... '
As far as municipal elections are concerned, the state of residence has a power of discretion: ‘… may provide that … shall be precluded …’
Člen 5(1) Direktive Sveta 94/80/ES decembra 1994 o podrobni ureditvi uresničevanja aktivne in pasivne volilne pravice na občinskih volitvah za državljane Unije, ki prebivajo v državi članici, niso pa njeni državljani, UL L 368 z dne 31.12.1994, str.
Article 5(1) of Council Directive 94/80/EC of December 1994 laying down detailed arrangements for the exercise of the right to vote and to stand as a candidate in municipal elections by citizens of the Union residing in a Member State of which they are not nationals, OJ L 368 of 31/12/1994, p.38. .
Prepoved presega nujno potrebno za zagotavljanje, da državljan EU kandidira pod enakimi pogoji, tako kot država prebivanja 'po zakonu nalaga svojim državljanom' (člen 3(b)).
Such a prohibition goes beyond what is strictly necessary to ensure that an EU citizen stands as a candidate under the same conditions as the state of residence ‘imposes by law on its own nationals’ (Article 3(b)).
Prepoved je nesorazmerna, ker lahko država članica sprejme stališče, da po njeni nacionalni zakonodaji ni ugovorov za večkratno kandidiranje.
This prohibition is disproportionate because a member state may very well take the view that it has no objection under its national law to multiple candidatures.
Veliko držav članic dejansko dovoljuje večkratno kandidiranje v svoji državi.
Indeed, many member states permit multiple candidatures within their own state.
(Ni potrebno dodajati, da mora kandidat, izvoljen v več kot eni volilni enoti, izbrati kraj, kjer bo imel sedež v parlamentu.)
(Needless to add, a candidate successful in being elected in more than one constituency has to choose the place for which he or she will sit in the Parliament.)
Parlament, s katerim se je treba posvetovati, mora postaviti vprašanji:
In short, the Parliament, in being consulted about this Directive, should pose two questions:
Zakaj so državljanu, ki sta mu odvzeti volilna pravica ali pravica kandidiranje na volitvah v eni državi članici, avtomatično odvzeti enaki pravici tudi v drugi državi?
Why should being deprived of the right to vote or stand as a candidate in one member state automatically deprive the citizen of the same rights in another?
Zakaj ne sme kandidat kandidirati na volitvah v več kot eni državi članici hkrati?
Why should a candidate not be able to stand in more than one member state at the same time?
Predlog direktive Sveta o spremembi Direktive 93/109/ES z dne 6. decembra 1993 o podrobni ureditvi uresničevanja aktivne in pasivne volilne pravice na volitvah v Evropski parlament za državljane Unije, ki prebivajo v državi članici, niso pa njeni državljani
on the proposal for a Council directive amending Directive 93/109/EC of 6 December 1993 as regards certain detailed arrangements for the exercise of the right to vote and stand as a candidate in elections to the European Parliament for citizens of the Union residing in a Member State of which they are not nationals
V skladu s členom 19 Pogodbe o ES, ima „vsak državljan Unije, ki prebiva v državi članici, katere ni državljan, pravico voliti in kandidirati na volitvah v Evropski parlament v državi članici prebivanja pod enakimi pogoji kot državljani te države“.
Under Article 19 of the Treaty establishing the European Community, ‘ every citizen of the Union residing in a Member State of which he is not a national shall have the right to vote and to stand as a candidate at European Parliament elections in the Member State in which he resides, under the same conditions as nationals of that State’ .
Direktiva 93/109/ES določa podrobno ureditev za uresničevanje aktivne in pasivne volilne pravice.
The detailed arrangements for the exercise of the right to vote and stand as a candidate are laid down in Directive 93/109/CE.
Cilji te direktive so zagotoviti in spodbuditi sodelovanje vseh državljanov Unije na volitvah v Evropski parlament ter zagotoviti enake volilne pravice vsem državljanom, ki prebivajo v isti državi (državljanom in nedržavljanom).
The objectives of this Directive are to ensure the participation of all citizens of the Union in European Parliament elections, to encourage all citizens to participate in these elections, and to guarantee the same electoral rights for all citizens residing in the same country (nationals or non-nationals)
Ta direktiva predvideva, da na istih volitvah nihče ne sme voliti več kot enkrat niti kandidirati v več kot eni državi (člen 4 direktive).
The Directive states that no citizen may vote more than once or stand as a candidate in more than one Member State in the same election (Article 4 of the Directive)
Glej tudi člen 8 Akta o volitvah poslancev Evropskega parlamenta s splošnimi neposrednimi volitvami z dne 20. septembra 1976.
Also Article 8 of the Act of 20 September 1976 concerning the election of the representatives of the European Parliament by direct universal suffrage. .
Poleg tega je Komisija, glede na izkušnje z evropskih volitev, ki so potekale junija 2004, ocenila, da je mogoče postopek poenostaviti, in zato pripravila ta predlog direktive.
However, in light of the experience of the European elections in June 2004, the Commission felt it would be possible to simplify the procedure and therefore presented this proposal for a directive.
Direktiva predvideva črtanje zahteve za izmenjavo informacij med državami članicami (člen 13), okrepitev določb, ki se nanašajo na kazni v primeru netočnosti uradnih izjav (člen 13), in črtanje zahteve, da morajo kandidati predložiti potrdilo, da jim pravica do kandidiranja ni bila odvzeta (člen 6 in člen 10).
The Directive plans to abolish the obligation for Member States to exchange information (Article 13), to strengthen the provisions for sanctions in the event of a false declaration (Article 13), and to abolish the obligation for candidates to provide an attestation that they are eligible to stand as a candidate (Articles 6 and 10).
Področje uporabe direktive
Scope of the Directive
- državljanov z dvojnim državljanstvom,
- citizens with dual nationality
- državljanov tretjih držav.
- third-country nationals
Vprašanje dvojnega državljanstva
Dual nationality
V sporočilu o evropskih volitvah leta 2004
In its Communication on the 2004 European elections
KOM(2006)0790 . je Komisija zastavila vprašanja, ki so lahko povezana z dvojnim ali večkratnim državljanstvom (več kot ene države članice).
COM(2006)0790 . , the Commission discussed the problems that may be linked to dual or multiple nationality (of more than one Member State).
V takšnih primerih je nemogoče zagotoviti, da državljani ne volijo več kot enkrat, kar je v nasprotju s členom 8 akta o volitvah poslancev Evropskega parlamenta s splošnimi neposrednimi volitvami z dne 20. septembra 1976.
In such cases, it is impossible to ensure that a citizen does not vote more than once, which is a breach of Article 8 of the Act of 20 September 1976 concerning the election of the representatives of the European Parliament by direct universal suffrage.
To vprašanje ne sodi na področje uporabe direktive 93/109/ES, lahko pa privede do dvojnega glasovanja, zato bi morala Komisija preučiti možnosti, kako se takšnim situacijam izogniti.
This issue does not fall within the scope of Directive 93/109/CE but is a potential source of double votes and the Commission should, therefore, study the options for avoiding such situations occurring.
Državljani tretjih držav
Third-country nationals
Sodišču je bilo predloženo vprašanje o tem, ali država članica lahko razširi volilno pravico za volitve v Evropski parlament na državljane tretjih držav, kot so državljani držav Commonwealtha, ki izpolnjujejo nekatere pogoje („qualifying Commonwealth citizens“) in ki prebivajo na ozemlju Unije, kot je Gibraltar.
The Court was consulted about whether a Member State is justified in extending the right to vote in European Parliament elections to third-country nationals, such as Commonwealth citizens fulfilling certain criteria (‘qualifying Commonwealth citizens’), living on European territory such as Gibraltar.
Sodišče je v sodbi z dne 12. septembra 2006
In its judgment of 12 September 2006
Točka 69 sodbe..
Point 69 of the judgment. in each Member State.
V sklepu Sodišče navaja, da „določitev nosilcev pravice voliti in biti voljen na volitvah v Evropski parlament izhaja iz pristojnosti vsake države članice ob upoštevanju prava Skupnosti in da členi 189, 190, 17 in 19 Pogodbe o ES ne nasprotujejo dejstvu, da države članice dodelijo aktivno in pasivno volilno pravico določenim osebam, ki imajo tesne stike z njimi, poleg tega, da jo podelijo svojim državljanom ali državljanom Evropske unije, ki prebivajo na njihovem ozemlju“.
The Court concludes that ‘ the definition of the persons entitled to vote and to stand as a candidate in elections to the European Parliament falls within the competence of each Member State in compliance with Community law, and that Articles 189 EC, 190 EC, 17 EC and 19 EC do not preclude the Member States from granting that right to vote and to stand as a candidate to certain persons who have close links to them, other than their own nationals or citizens of the Union resident in their territory ’ .
Ta sodba poudarja, da imajo državljani tretjih držav lahko pravico voliti in biti izvoljeni v Evropski parlament, vendar je v pristojnosti držav članic, da jim takšno pravico dodelijo.
This judgment points out that is possible for third-country nationals to have the right to vote and to be elected to the European Parliament, but the Member States concerned must decide whether or not to grant these rights.
Poročevalec podpira cilj Komisije za poenostavitev postopkov za evropske državljane, ki želijo voliti ali kandidirati v državi članici, kjer prebivajo.
The rapporteur supports the Commission’s aim of simplifying the procedures for European citizens wanting to vote or stand for election in their Member State of residence.
Bilo pa bi koristno, da Komisija po evropskih volitvah leta 2009 s tem v zvezi pripravi predlog, ki bi ga preučila Svet in Parlament.
However, it would be useful if, after the European elections in 2009, the Commission made a proposal regarding this matter, which could then be studied by Council and Parliament.
