– mednarodni skupnosti, da Evropska unija resno jemlje svoje odgovornosti na področju podnebnih sprememb, biotske raznovrstnosti in človekovih pravic.
-to the international community, that we are taking seriously our responsibilities on climate change, biodiversity and human rights.
Pristop s prostovoljnimi sporazumi o partnerstvu, ki je bil v EU uveden z Akcijskim načrt EU izvrševanja zakonodaje, upravljanja in trgovanja na področju gozdov (FLEGT) iz leta 2003 ne zadošča za obravnavo problema nezakonite sečnje.
The Voluntary Partnership Agreement (VPA) approach which the EU has in place under the 2003 Action Plan on Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade (FLEGT) is insufficient to address illegal logging.
Prostovoljni sporazumi o partnerstvu sicer lahko spodbudijo zelo pozitivne spremembe, vendar je bil doslej podpisan le eden, zaradi njihove prostovoljne narave pa so možnosti za izogibanje in pranje denarja velike.
While VPAs have the potential to drive very positive change, to date only one has been signed, and their voluntary nature means the risks of circumvention and laundering are high.
Ko so zaključena posvetovanja Komisije o ukrepih za dopolnitev pristopa prostovoljnih sporazumov o partnerstvu, je potrebna trdna zakonodaja, da se zagotovi umik nezakonito pridobljenega lesa ali lesnih proizvodov s trga EU.
As the Commission's consultation on measures to complement the VPA approach concluded, firm legislation is needed to ensure that illegally harvested timber/timber products are removed from the EU market.
Poročevalka zato pozdravlja predlagano uredbo, a obžaluje, da se sprejema skoraj pet let po potrditvi akcijskega načrta FLEGT.
The Rapporteur therefore welcomes the proposed Regulation, whilst regretting that it comes nearly five years after endorsement of the FLEGT Action Plan.
Ravno tako meni, da jo je treba v več vidikih okrepiti in dopolniti.
She also considers that it needs to be strengthened and elaborated upon in several respects.
Najosnovnejši problem je, da predlagana uredba dejansko ne prepoveduje uvoza in prodaje nezakonito posekanega lesa, zaradi česar ne obravnava „šibkih pravil za preprečevanje trgovanja nezakonito pridobljenega lesa“
Most fundamentally, the proposed Regulation does not actually prohibit the import and sale of illegally logged timber - thereby failing to address "the weak rules to prevent trade in illegally harvested timber "
Ameriški spremenjeni Laceyev akt, sprejet maja 2008, takšno prepoved uzakonja, torej precedens že obstaja.
The revised US Lacey Act, adopted in May 2008, does enact such a prohibition, so a precedent is in place.
Zato ni dobrega razloga, zakaj EU tega ne bi mogla posnemati in dejansko iti še dlje.
There is no good reason why the EU cannot emulate this and indeed go further.
Poročevalka tako predlaga jasno izjavo, da zahteva, da gospodarski subjekti na trgu dajejo na voljo samo zakonito pridobljen les ali lesne proizvode, velja za vse gospodarske subjekte v dobavni verigi.
The Rapporteur thus proposes an explicit statement of the requirement that operators make available on the market only legally harvested timber/timber products, to apply to all operators on the supply chain.
Obseg potrebne skrbnosti in zahtev za zakonitost
Scope of due diligence and legality requirements
Poročevalka na novo razlikuje med gospodarskimi subjekti, ki „ dajejo na trg “ les in lesne proizvode (kar pomeni prvo dajanje na trg), ter tistimi, ki „ dajejo na voljo na trgu “ (kar pomeni vse gospodarske subjekte v dobavni verigi).
The Rapporteur makes a new distinction between operators who " place on the market " timber/timber products (meaning to make available on the market for the first time), and those who " make available on the market " (meaning all operators in the supply chain).
Zahteva po potrebni skrbnosti bo spodbudila dobro prakso in v idealnem primeru bodo vsi gospodarski subjekti v dobavni verigi izvajali sistem potrebne skrbnosti v celoti.
The requirement to exercise due diligence will encourage good practice, and ideally all operators in the supply chain would implement a full due diligence system.
Vendar poročevalka priznava, da to morda ni uresničljivo za majhne gospodarske subjekte, tako da je v predlogu zahteva za uresničevanje v celoti omejena na gospodarske subjekte, ki „dajejo“ proizvode na trg; saj očitno ti najbolj vplivajo na to, kaj vstopa v EU, ter imajo s tem največjo odgovornost.
However the Rapporteur acknowledges this may be unrealistic for small-scale operators and so confines the full requirement, as per the proposal, to operators who "place" products on the market - who are clearly those with the biggest influence on what enters the EU, and thus bear greatest responsibility.
Hkrati bi morala splošna prepoved dajanja nezakonito pridobljenega lesa ali lesnih proizvodov na trg veljati za vse gospodarske subjekte v dobavni verigi, ki si morajo z vso skrbnostjo prizadevati v ta namen.
At the same time, all operators in the supply chain should be bound by the overriding prohibition against making illegally sourced timber/timber products available on the market, and should exercise due care to this effect.
Na enak način, kot bo zahteva za potrebno skrbnost zavezovala gospodarske subjekte, ki dajejo les ali lesne proizvode na trg, da pri preverjanju zakonitosti lesa in lesnih proizvodov, ki jih vključijo v svojo dobavno verigo
In the same way that the due diligence requirement will oblige operators who place timber/timber products on the market "to show prudence, judgement and positive action in ascertaining the legality of the timber and timber products that enter the supply chain"
9. , pokažejo preudarnost, razsodno moč in pripravljenost za delovanje, ter bo spodbudila pridobivanje lesa iz držav, v katerih zanesljivo gospodarijo z gozdovi
9 and " tend to favour sourcing from countries with reliable forest management practices"
7. , bo gospodarske subjekte možnost pregona zaradi trgovanja z nezakonito pridobljenim lesom za vse subjekte v dobavni verigi spodbudila, da bodo dali prednost pridobivanju lesa pri zanesljivih in uglednih dobaviteljih na trgu, torej tistih, ki najučinkoviteje izvajajo obveznosti glede potrebne skrbnosti.
7 , the possibility of prosecution for trading illegal timber as applied to all operators in the supply chain will encourage them to favour sourcing from reliable, reputable placers on the market - i.e. those who are exercising their due diligence obligations most effectively.
Hkrati se bo breme odgovornosti pravičneje razporedilo med gospodarskimi subjekti.
It will also distribute the burden of responsibility more equitably among operators.
Poročevalka tudi meni, da bi morali zaradi boljše sledljivosti vsi gospodarski subjekti zabeležiti in zagotoviti osnovne informacije o proizvodih, njihovem izvoru in imenih naročnikov.
To aid traceability the Rapporteur also considers that all operators should note and provide basic information about products, their source and to whom they supply.
Veljavna zakonodaja
Applicable legislation
Akcijski načrt EU izvrševanja zakonodaje, upravljanja in trgovanja na področju gozdov FLEGT določa, da je širši cilj EU spodbujati trajnostno gospodarjenje z gozdovi
The FLEGT Action Plan states that " the EU's wider objective is to encourage sustainable forest management "
Akcijski načrt EU izvrševanja zakonodaje, upravljanja in trgovanja na področju gozdov FLEGT (KOM(2003)251). , ter zavezuje EU, da celostno obravnava problem nezakonite sečnje.
EU FLEGT Action Plan (COM(2003)251) , and commits the EU to address the problem of illegal logging in an integrated way.
Poleg obravnave nezakonite sečnje z neposrednega tržnega vidika mora uredba prispevati k širšemu cilju trajnostnega razvoja kot sredstvo za obravnavo osnovnih vprašanj, povezanih z nezakonito sečnjo.
In addition to tackling illegal logging from a direct market perspective, this Regulation must contribute to the broader goal of sustainable development as a means of addressing the underlying causes.
To bi dosegli s pomočjo razširitve obsega veljavne zakonodaje, na podlagi katere je opredeljena „zakonitost“.
Broadening the scope of the applicable legislation against which "legality" is defined would help achieve this.
Evropska unija in države članice so se kot pogodbenice številnih mednarodnih in regionalnih sporazumov pravno in politično že zavezale ohranjanju in trajnostni uporabi naravnih virov, zmanjševanju revščine ter varstvu pravic domorodnih ljudstev in skupnosti, odvisnih od gozda.
As parties to multiple international and regional agreements the EU and Member States have already legally and politically committed themselves to the conservation and sustainable use of natural resources, poverty alleviation and protection of the rights of indigenous and forest-dependent communities.
Ta uredba je lahko glavno orodje pri izvajanju teh določb.
The Regulation can be a vehicle for helping to implement their provisions.
Sistem potrebne skrbnosti
Due diligence system
V predlogu je le malo podrobnosti o tem, kaj naj bi obsegala sistem potrebne skrbnosti ali sistem obvladovanja tveganja, kar lahko povzroči velike razlike med državami članicami in gospodarskimi subjekti s posledicami za upravno zapletenost (za gospodarske subjekte, ki delujejo v več državah) in končno učinkovitost tega koncepta.
The proposal contains little detail on what a due diligence system, or the risk management system within it, should comprise - risking great variation among Member States and operators, with implications for both administrative complexity (for operators working in several countries), and the ultimate effectiveness of the concept.
Poročevalka tako dopolni ključne elemente.
The Rapporteur therefore elaborates on crucial elements.
Nadzorne organizacije in njihovo priznavanje
Monitoring organisations and their accreditation
Poročevalka predlaga, da se odločitev o priznanju nadzorne organizacije sprejme na ravni EU in ne na nacionalni ravni, da bi tako za organizacije, ki nadzorujejo sisteme potrebne skrbnosti, v celotni EU veljali usklajeni standardi.
In order to have harmonised standards across the EU for the organisations which monitor due diligence systems, the Rapporteur proposes that the decision over whether to recognise a monitoring organisation be made at EU rather than national level.
Poročevalka razširja tudi merila, ki jih morajo izpolnjevati organizacije, ter obseg informacij, ki jih morajo predložiti z zahtevkom za priznanje.
She expands on the criteria organisations should fulfil, as well as the information they must submit in application for recognition.
Z osrednjim priznavanjem in jasnimi merili v uredbi bi preprečili šibke povezave v nadzornem sistemu ter zmanjšali upravno zapletenost za organizacije, ki delujejo v več državah članicah.
Centralised accreditation and clear criteria in the Regulation would help avoid weak links in the oversight system, and reduce administrative complexity for organisations operating in more than one Member State.
Pregledi in kontrole, ki jih opravljajo pristojni organi
Checks and controls by competent authorities
Čeprav poročevalka predlaga, da se nadzorne organizacije priznavajo na ravni EU, imajo pristojni organi, ki jih določijo države članice, pomembno vlogo pri nadzoru sistema.
Although the Rapporteur proposes that monitoring organisations be accredited at EU level, Member State-designated competent authorities have an important role in policing the system.
To pomeni tako preverjanje, če nadzorne organizacije izpolnjujejo zahteve uredbe, kot izvajanje kontrol dobavne verige.
This means both checking that monitoring organisations fulfil the requirements of the Regulation, and carrying out controls of the supply chain.
Poročevalka meni, da je treba omogočiti, da se preverja na podlagi utemeljenih pomislekov tretjih strani in na podlagi načrta.
The Rapporteur believes it should be possible to activate either level on the basis of substantiated third party concerns, as well as on a pre-planned basis.
Poročevalka dopolnjuje, kaj lahko obsegajo nadzor in kontrole, v obeh primerih tudi preglede na terenu.
She elaborates what the checks and controls may consist of, including in both cases field audits.
Nezakonita sečnja povzroča resno škodo okolju, zato bi morali biti pristojni organi pooblaščeni, da takoj uvedejo korektivne ukrepe, tudi zaseg nezakonitega lesa ali lesnih proizvodov ter prenehanje komercialne dejavnosti, če je to po njihovem mnenju potrebno za čimprejšnje preprečevanje škode zaradi nezakonitega pridobivanja zadevnih proizvodov (namesto čakanja na polni postopek pregona).
Because illegal logging causes serious environmental damage, competent authorities should be empowered to apply immediate corrective measures including the seizure of illegal timber/timber products, and ceasing of commercial activity - if deemed necessary in order to halt damage caused by illegal harvesting of the products in question as quickly as possible (rather than waiting for a full prosecution process).
Sledenje izvoru lesa bi moralo biti lažje, ker so vsi gospodarski subjekti v dobavni verigi dolžni vedeti, od koga so prejeli ves les in lesne proizvode ter komu so jih dobavili.
Tracing the source of the timber should be aided by the fact that all operators in the supply chain are bound to know from whom they obtained all timber and timber products, and to whom they have supplied them.
Izvzetje biomase
Biomass exemption
Poročevalka meni, da je treba črtati izvzetje lesa za energijo in biomase, češ, da bodo zanju v prihodnje veljala obvezna trajnostna merila EU.
The Rapporteur considers that the exemption for "energy wood" and biomass, on the grounds that these will be subject to future mandatory EU sustainability criteria, should be deleted.
Mednarodna trgovina z lesom in lesnimi proizvodi se zaradi naraščajočega povpraševanja v svetu vedno bolj povečuje.
Due to growing worldwide demand, international trade of timber and timber products is fast rising.
Zato v številnih državah proizvajalkah les, pridobljen z nezakonito sečnjo, obsega zelo velik del celotne trgovine z lesom.
Consequently, in numerous timber-producing countries, timber trade based on illegal logging represents a very significant share of total timber trade.
Tovrstna dejavnost izredno škodljivo vpliva na okolje, družbo in gospodarstvo, zlasti v državah v razvoju.
Such actions have a significantly damaging impact on the environment, society, and economy, especially in developing countries.
EU se mora boriti proti nezakoniti sečnji in spodbujati zakonito sečnjo.
The EU must fight against illegal logging and promote legal logging.
V akcijskem načrtu EU za izvrševanje zakonodaje, upravljanje in trgovanje na področju gozdov (FLEGT) je predlagan sveženj ukrepov v podporo mednarodnim prizadevanjem za reševanje tega vprašanja.
The EU Action Plan for Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade (FLEGT) proposed a package of measures to support international efforts to tackle this issue.
EU se je z državami, ki proizvajajo les, pogajala o prostovoljnih sporazumih o partnerstvu, s katerimi so pogodbenice sprejele obveznosti za izvajanje sheme izdajanja dovoljenj in urejanje trgovanja z lesom in lesnimi proizvodi.
The EU has negotiated Voluntary Partnership Agreements (VPAs) with timber-producing countries, which put a legally binding obligation on the parties to implement a licensing scheme and to regulate trade in timber and timber products.
EU mora na mednarodnem prizorišču opozoriti na obveznosti gospodarskih subjektov ter na potrebo po uporabi vseh razpoložljivih sredstev, tudi najnovejše tehnologije, za odkrivanje, spremljanje, vodenje registra nezakonite sečnje in boj proti njej ter spodbujanje zakonite sečnje.
The EU must, in these international arenas, put the emphasis on the obligations of operators and on the necessity to use every mean available, including the latest technologies, to detect, track, register and fight illegal logging and also to promote legal logging.
S to uredbo je EU končno poudarila odgovornosti gospodarskih subjektov, ki so vključeni v dajanje lesa na trg EU.
With this regulation, the EU finally goes forward by stressing the responsibilities of operators involved in putting timber on the EU market.
Ta predlog Evropske komisije je potrebno orodje za preprečevanje krčenja gozdov ter nezakonite sečnje in pridobivanja, saj določa stroge pravne standarde za les in lesne proizvode, pa tudi orodje za večjo zaščito gozdov in biotske raznovrstnosti, ublažitev vplivov podnebnih sprememb ter spoštovanje pravic prebivalstev, ki so odvisna od gozdov.
This proposal of the European Commission is necessary to fight deforestation and illegal logging and harvesting by defining a strong legality standard for wood and wood-derivate products, to help protect forests and biodiversity, mitigate climate change and respect the rights of forest-dependent people.
Vendar je treba predlog okrepiti in izboljšati, da bi bil v celoti učinkovit.
However the proposal must be strengthened and improved to be fully effective.
Da bi bila uredba resnično odvračalna, je treba v njej poudariti kršitve, zato da bi se vsak gospodarski subjekt, ki uvaža in poseduje nezakonit les na ozemlju EU, zavedal grožnje resnih kazni.
To be really deterrent, the regulation must emphasise the notion of offence so that no operator importing and detaining illegal timber on EU territory feels immune to the threat of serious penalties.
V tem smislu besedilo torej ne sme vsebovati vrzeli, s katerimi bi gospodarski subjekti lahko obšli določbe uredbe.
In that sense, the text should not feature loopholes, which could be used by operators to circumvent the regulation.
Poleg tega je treba potrebno skrbnost, predvideno v besedilu (zlasti postopke obvladovanja tveganja), opredeliti jasneje in učinkoviteje.
Besides, the due diligences, particularly risk management procedures, foreseen in the text have to be defined in a clearer and more effective manner.
V uredbi je treba bolje predvideti praktični vidik njene izvedbe s strani gospodarskih subjektov, da bi zagotovili učinkovitost.
The regulation must better anticipate the practicality of its implementation by operators to ensure effectiveness.
Pristojni organi v državah članicah bi morali imeti tudi zadostne pristojnosti na področju carine, da bi lahko nadzorovali mednarodno trgovino z lesnimi proizvodi, vključno s pregledi trgovskih plovil, preiskovali kazniva dejanja in domnevne kršitve, obveščali tožilce o kršiteljih ter vodili register nezakonite prakse.
Moreover, competent authorities in Member States should be given sufficient custom powers to control international trade of timber products, even by boarding shipment cargos, to investigate crime and alleged infringements, to alert prosecutors on cases of offenders, and to register illegal practices.
Nazadnje bi morala Evropska unija upoštevati ukrepe, ki jih je sprejela vlada ZDA natančneje Laceyjev akt, ki prepoveduje trgovanje z nezakonito pridobljenimi rastlinami in njihovimi proizvodi, tudi z lesom in lesnimi proizvodi.
Lastly the European Union should take into consideration the measures taken by the U.S. government, namely the US Lacey Act, where commerce in illegally sourced plants and their products - including timber and wood products - are banned by law.
Komisija bi morala preučiti možnost oblikovanja posebnih obveznosti tudi za trgovce na drobno, ki bi dopolnjevale obveznosti, naložene partnerskim državam in uvoznikom.
The Commission should examine the possibility of specific obligations for retailers too, complementary to obligations put on partner countries and importers.
(5) Svet in Evropski parlament, ki priznavata potrebo po tem, da Skupnost prispeva k svetovnim prizadevanjem za reševanje problema nezakonite sečnje in da v okviru trajnostnega razvoja podpira trajnostno zakonito sečnjo, trajnostno gospodarjenje z gozdovi in zmanjšanje revščine, pa tudi socialno enakost in nacionalno suverenost , sta pozdravila navedeno sporočilo.
(5) The Council and the European Parliament recognising the need for the Community to contribute to global efforts to address the problem of illegal logging and to support sustainable legal logging within the framework of sustainable development, sustainable forest management and poverty reduction, as well as social equity and national sovereignty, welcomed that Communication.
(6a) Skupnost bi si morala pri dvostranskih pogovorih z državami, ki so velike porabnice lesa, na primer ZDA, Kitajska, Rusija in Japonska, prizadevati za obravnavanje problema, približevanje usklajenim in ustreznim obveznostim za gospodarske subjekte na njihovem domačem trgu lesa ter vzpostavitev neodvisnega svetovnega sistema obveščanja in registra nezakonite sečnje, pri katerem bi sodelovala na primer Interpol in ustrezen organ Organizacije združenih narodov, ki bi uporabljala najnovejšo tehnologijo satelitskega odkrivanja.
(6a) The Community should also push, in bilateral talks with major timber-consuming countries such as the US, China, Russia, and Japan, for discussions on the problem, convergence towards harmonised appropriate obligations on operators on their own timber market, and the creation of an independent, global alert system and register of illegal logging consisting for example of Interpol and an appropriate United Nations (UN) body, benefiting from the latest satellite detection technologies.
Najprej je treba vpeljati obveznosti za pravilno izvajanje, za gospodarske subjekte iz držav z velikimi gozdnimi pokrajinami, ki so del „zelenih pljuč“ sveta in pomembno prispevajo v boju proti globalnemu segrevanju.
Obligations of proper conduct should be imposed, in the first place, on operators from countries with large forest areas which constitute "Green Lungs" of the world and have significant contributions to the fight against global warming.
Okrepitev zahtev in obveznosti ter izboljšanje učinkovitosti pravnih sredstev za pregon zaradi posedovanja in prodaje tistih gospodarskih subjektov, ki na trg EU dajejo nezakonit les in lesne proizvode, sta med najučinkovitejšimi rešitvami za odvračanje teh subjektov od trgovanja z nezakonitimi dobavitelji.
Strengthening requirements and obligations and enhancing the legal means to prosecute possession and sales by operators placing illegal timber and timber products on the EU market are among the most effective solutions to deter operators from trading with illegal suppliers.
Uredba ne sme vsebovati vrzeli, ki bi se lahko izrabile za dajanje na trg lesa, pridobljenega z nezakonito sečnjo.
The regulation should not feature loopholes that could be used to introduce illegally-logged timber.
