Kaj namerava storiti, da se bolgarski primer oviranega poslovanja energetskih podjetij ne bo ponovil ne v Bolgariji ne na energetskih trgih ostalih držav članic EU?
What steps does the Commission intend to take to ensure that such restrictions on the operations of energy companies are not repeated, either in Bulgaria or in the energy markets of the other Member States?
(30. julij 2008)
(30 July 2008)
Komisija je seznanjena s tem, da so bile za proizvajalce električne energije v Bolgariji za obdobje treh mesecev v začetku leta 2008 z ministrskim odlokom določene omejitve izvoza električne energije.
The Commission is aware that restrictions to electricity exports were imposed on electricity producers in Bulgaria by ministerial order during a period of about three months in early 2008.
Ta ukrep je bil posledica večje domače porabe in vedno manjših zalog premoga za elektrarne na fosilna goriva.
This measure was motivated by increased internal consumption and decreasing coal reserves for the fossil-fuel power plants.
Člen 3(2) Direktive 2003/54/ES Direktiva 2003/54/ES Evropskega parlamenta in Sveta z dne 26. junija 2003 o skupnih pravilih za notranji trg z električno energijo in o razveljavitvi Direktive 96/92/ES, UL L 176, 15.7.2003 . določa, da lahko države članice v splošnem gospodarskem interesu naložijo obveznosti javnih storitev, ki se lahko nanašajo na varnost oskrbe.
Article 3 paragraph 2 of Directive 2003/54/EC Directive 2003/54/EC of the Parliament and of the Council of 26 June 2003 concerning common rules for the internal market in electricity, OJ L 176, 15.7.2003. indicate that Member States may impose, in the general economic interest, public service obligations which may relate to security of supply.
Take obveznosti morajo biti jasno določene, pregledne, nediskriminatorne in preverljive ter morajo elektroenergetskim podjetjem v EU zagotavljati enak dostop do nacionalnih odjemalcev.
Such obligations shall be clearly defined, transparent, non-discriminatory, verifiable and guarantee equality of access for EU electricity companies to national consumers.
O teh obveznostih javnih storitev je treba obvestiti Komisijo.
In addition, such public service obligations shall be notified to the Commission.
Kot kaže, ti pogoji v tem primeru niso izpolnjeni.
These conditions do not seem to have been fulfilled in this specific case.
Komisija se je odločila, da za zdaj ne bo sprožila postopka za ugotavljanje kršitev, saj so bile omejitve določene le za omejeno obdobje.
However, at this stage, considering that the restrictions were imposed for a limited period of time, the Commission decided not to open an infringement procedure on this point.
Vendar pa bo še naprej spremljala to področje in po potrebi proučila, ali naj sprejme ustrezne ukrepe, če bodo v Bolgariji ali v drugih državah članicah ponovno uvedene podobne omejitve izvoza električne energije.
The Commission will, however, remain vigilant and may consider appropriate steps if similar electricity exports restrictions are repeated in Bulgaria and also in other Member States.

Zadeva: Uvedba vinjet v Sloveniji
Subject: Introduction of road toll stickers (‘vignettes’) in Slovenia
Letos je Slovenija uvedla vinjeto kot instrument za plačilo cestnine.
This year Slovenia introduced the ‘vignette’ system for paying road tolls.
Že po nekaj mesecih nam podatki kažejo, da je s tem ukrepom Slovenija dosegla želene rezultate: povečala pretočnost prometa, zmanjšala zastoje na cesti in s tem onesnaževanje ter porabo goriva.
After just a few months, figures already show that the desired results have been achieved with this move, which has improved the flow of traffic and cut back traffic jams, thereby reducing pollution and fuel consumption.
Evropska komisija Sloveniji ob uvedbi vinjet očita diskriminatornost ter nesorazmernost višine cestnin v primerjavi z drugimi državami članicami EU.
When Slovenia introduced this system the Commission accused it of discrimination, and said that the charges were disproportionately high by comparison with other EU Member States.
Državljani in državljanke Slovenije me hkrati opozarjajo na težave, ki jih imajo pri potovanju v druge države članice EU.
At the same time, Slovenian citizens bring to my attention the problems they have when travelling to other Member States.
Zato Komisiji zastavljam naslednja vprašanja: —
Therefore I would like to ask the Commission the following questions: —
Kako Komisija omogoča sorazmernost ukrepov v EU?
How does the Commission make it possible for measures to be proportional within the EU?
Plačilo enkratne cestnine od Trsta do Rima je na primer po vrednosti približno enako plačilu za polletno vinjeto v Sloveniji. —
The road toll from Trieste to Rome, for example, costs approximately the same as a six-month vignette in Slovenia. —
Ravno Komisija je države članice namreč pozivala k čimprejšnji uvedbi tovrstnega cestninjenja.
After all, it was the Commission which called on the Member States to introduce electronic toll collection as soon as possible.
Tajanija v imenu Komisije
Answer given by Mr Tajani on behalf of the Commission
Komisija se zaveda vse večjega števila mestnih okoljskih con v EU, v katerih se uporabljajo različna pravila dostopa in različni načini uveljavljanja teh pravil, na primer vinjete.
The Commission is aware of an increasing number of urban environmental zones in the EU, using different access rules and enforcement methods, such as stickers.
Lokalne prometne omejitve ne bi smele razlikovati med vozili, registriranimi v različnih državah članicah.
Local traffic restrictions should not discriminate among vehicles registered in different Member States.
Zato je Komisija za primere, o katerih je bila uradno obveščena, poudarjala potrebo, da države članice zagotovijo dobro komuniciranje z zadevnimi državljani in podjetji, tako v državi članici, v kateri je okoljska cona, kot tudi v drugih državah članicah in da morajo imeti vozniki tujih vozil možnost enostavnega dostopa do sredstev, s katerimi se izpolnjujejo pogoji za dostop do cone ali za izvzetje.
The Commission, therefore, has stressed, in cases where it was notified, the need for Member States to ensure thorough communication to the citizens and businesses concerned both in the Member State where the environmental zone is situated as well as in other Member States, and that the means to fulfil the conditions for access to the zone or for exemptions can be easily obtained by drivers of foreign vehicles.
Komisija do zdaj ni predlagala enotnih pravil glede lokalnih omejitev dostopa, saj je menila, da je to izključno v pristojnosti lokalnih, regionalnih ali nacionalnih organov.
Uniform rules on local access restrictions have not been proposed by the Commission so far, as this was considered to be exclusively in the competence of local, regional or national authorities.
Zaradi rastočega števila lokalnih prometnih omejitev dostopa pa je Komisija sprožila vprašanje usklajenih pravil za okoljske cone v svoji Zeleni knjigi o mobilnosti v mestih z dne 25. septembra 2007 COM(2007) 551 konč. , z namenom, da morda vključi ustrezen predlog v akcijski načrt o mobilnosti v mestih.
In view of the growing multitude of local traffic access restrictions, however, the Commission has raised the issue of harmonised rules for environmental zones in its Green Paper on Urban Mobility of 25 September 2007 COM(2007)551 final. , with the view of possibly including a proposal in an Action Plan on Urban Mobility.
Vsakršna diskriminacija znotraj EU na podlagi državljanstva je prepovedana s členom 12 Pogodbe o ustanovitvi Evropske skupnosti.
Any discrimination within the EU on grounds of nationality is prohibited by Article 12 of the Treaty establishing the European Community.
Isto pravilo se nanaša na tiste ukrepe, ki sicer niso neposredno povezani z državljanstvom, vendar dejansko povzročajo neenako obravnavanje.
The same applies to measures which although not explicitly linked to nationality lead in fact to unequal treatment.
Nasprotno kot pri časovno opredeljeni uporabniški pristojbini (sistem vinjet), je cestnina povezana z razdaljo potovanja in znesek, ki ga uporabniki cest plačajo, na sorazmeren in nediskriminatoren način odraža stroške, ki dejansko nastanejo z uporabo infrastrukture.
Unlike a time-based user charge (vignette system), a toll is in relation with the distance travelled and the amount to be paid by road users reflects in a proportional and non-discriminatory way the costs actually occurred by the use of the infrastructure.
Cilj Direktive Evropskega parlamenta in Sveta 2004/52/ES z dne 29. aprila 2004 je doseči interoperabilnost obstoječih elektronskih sistemov za pobiranje cestnine v Skupnosti Direktiva Evropskega parlamenta in Sveta 2004/52/ES z dne 29. aprila 2004 o interoperabilnosti elektronskih cestninskih sistemov v Skupnosti, UL L 166, 30.4.2004 . .
Directive 2004/52/CE of the Parliament and the Council of 29 April 2004 aims to achieve the interoperability of existing electronic fee collection systems in the Community Directive 2004/52/EC of the Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 on the interoperability of electronic road toll systems in the Community, OJ L 166, 30.4.2004. .
Evropska komisija, ki ji pomaga Odbor za elektronsko cestninjenje, je bila naprošena, da opredeli značilnosti in tehnične elemente evropskega elektronskega cestninjenja (EETS – European Electronic Toll Service).
The European Commission, assisted by an Electronic Toll Committee, was asked to define the features and technical elements of the European Electronic Toll Service (EETS).
Podrobna opredelitev evropskega elektronskega cestninjenja se zdaj dokončuje na vrsti zasedanj ob podpori odbora za cestninjenje.
The detailed definition of EETS is currently being finalised in a series of meetings with the assistance of the Toll Committee.
Pričakuje se, da bo odbor pripravljen glasovati o predlaganem sklepu Komisije spomladi leta 2009.
It is expected that the Committee is ready to vote on the proposed Commission decision in the spring 2009.
Komisija bi potem lahko sprejela sklep o opredelitvi evropskega elektronskega cestninjenja – po običajnih postopkih – do sredine leta 2009.
The Commission could then adopt the decision on the EETS definition — following the usual procedures — by mid‑2009.
Direktiva 2004/52/ES predvideva, da države članice zagotovijo, da bo storitev v treh letih od datuma sprejetja opredelitve evropskega elektronskega cestninjenja na voljo za težka tovorna vozila, v petih letih pa za vsa vozila.
As from the date of adoption of the EETS definition, Directive 2004/52/CE foresees that Member States shall ensure that the service is available within three years for Heavy Goods Vehicles and within five years for all vehicles.

Zadeva: Olajšanje viznega režima za države Zahodnega Blakana
Subject: Easing of visa requirements for the Western Balkan countries
Rad bi pozdravil izjavo komisarja Rehna, v kateri upa, da bo mogoče vizume za Srbijo odpraviti morda že letos.
I welcome Commissioner Rehn’s statement in which he hopes it will be possible to abolish visas for Serbia perhaps as early as this year.
Ta informacija je dobrodošla in prinaša upanje tudi drugim državam Zahodnega Balkana.
This is welcome news and gives hope to the other countries of the western Balkans.
Menim namreč, da je pospešena vključitev držav Zahodnega Balkana v integracijski proces EU vitalnega pomena za stabilnost te regije.
I believe that accelerating the process of including these countries in the EU integration process is vital for the stability of the region.
Evropski parlament se pripravlja tudi na sprejetje predloga resolucije o poročilu o napredku Nekdanje jugoslovanske republike Makedonije za leto 2008.
The European Parliament is also preparing to adopt a resolution on the 2008 Progress Report on the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia.
Komisijo zato sprašujem: —
In view of the above, I would like to ask the Commission: —
Ali Komisija predvideva ali že izvaja tudi kakšne dodatne pospešene aktivnosti v svojem prizadevanju za čimprejšnjo odpravo vizumov za države Zahodnega Balkana in še posebej za Makedonijo? —
whether it envisages or is already implementing any other accelerated activities in its efforts to achieve as soon as possible the abolition of visas for the Western Balkan countries, in particular, for Macedonia; —
Ali Komisija nudi kakršnekoli dodatne programe državam Zahodnega Balkana, s katerimi bi jih dodatno usposobila in motivirala za napredek na področju razvoja zmogljivosti za uskladitev zakonodaje z evropskim pravnim redom? —
whether it is offering the Western Balkan countries any additional capacity-building programmes to encourage them to make progress in developing their ability to bring their legislation into line with EC law; —
Kdaj Komisija predvideva, da bi EU lahko odpravila vize za države Zahodnega Balkana, posebej za Makedonijo?

(11 May 2009)
Potem ko so januarja 2008 začeli veljati sporazumi o poenostavitvi vizumskih postopkov in ponovnem sprejemu, je Komisija začela dialog o liberalizaciji vizumske ureditve s petimi državami Zahodnega Balkana (Albanijo, Bosno in Hercegovino, Nekdanjo jugoslovansko republiko Makedonijo, Črno goro in Srbijo).
Following the entry into force of the visa facilitation and readmission agreements in January 2008, the Commission launched visa liberalisation dialogues with five Western Balkan countries (Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia).
Komisija je na podlagi posvetovanja s Svetom pripravila načrte za liberalizacijo vizumske ureditve, v katerih so določena konkretna merila za vsako od navedenih držav.
The Commission provided — in consultation with the Council — visa liberalisation roadmaps containing concrete benchmarks for each of the countries.
Prav tako je Komisija pripravila predhodne ocene uspešnosti držav, s katerimi so bile najprej seznanjene države članice, novembra 2008 pa še partnerske države.
The Commission prepared preliminary assessments on the performance of the countries which were shared first with the Member States and then sent to the partner countries in November 2008.
Drugi del dialoga se je začel januarja 2009 z nizom strokovnih misij in srečanj, v okviru katerih so bile zbrane dodatne informacije o izvajanju meril v zadevnih državah.
The second part of the dialogue started in January 2009 with a series of expert missions and meetings to gather additional information on the implementation of the benchmarks by the countries concerned.
Te strokovne misije in srečanja so se zdaj končali, poročila pa so v zaključni fazi priprav.
These expert missions and meetings have been completed and the reports are about to be finalised.
Službe Komisije bodo maja 2009 na podlagi zbranih informacij dopolnile ocene o izpolnjevanju meril, določenih v načrtih.
On the basis of the information collected, the Commission services will prepare updated assessments on the fulfilment of the roadmap criteria during May 2009.
O teh ocenah bodo znova najprej seznanjene države članice, nato pa še partnerske države.
These assessments will again be shared first with the Member States and then with the partner countries.
Pokazalo se je, da je dialog o liberalizaciji vizumske ureditve močna spodbuda za sodelujoče države, da pospešijo svoja reformna prizadevanja.
The visa liberalisation dialogues have proven to be a strong incentive for the participating countries to speed up their reform efforts.
Ta prizadevanja podpirajo projekti v okviru pomoči Skupnosti za obnovo, razvoj in stabilizacijo (CARDS) ter instrumenta za predpristopno pomoč (IPA), pa tudi instrument za tehnično pomoč in izmenjavo informacij (TAIEX).
These efforts are supported by the ongoing Community Assistance for Reconstruction, Development and Stabilisation (CARDS) and Instrument for Pre-Accession Assistance (IPA) projects as well as through the Technical Assistance and Information Exchange Instrument (TAIEX).
Na podlagi predloga Komisije za spremembo Uredbe (ES) št. 539/2001 Uredba Sveta (ES) št. 539/2001 z dne 15. marca 2001 o seznamu tretjih držav, katerih državljani morajo pri prehodu zunanjih meja imeti vizume, in držav, katerih državljani so oproščeni te zahteve, UL L 81, 21.3.2001 . bo Svet sprejel odločitev po posvetovanju s Parlamentom.
Upon the Commission proposal for changing Regulation (EC) No 539/2001 Council Regulation (EC) No 539/2001 of 15 March 2001 listing the third countries whose nationals must be in possession of visas when crossing the external borders and those whose nationals are exempt from that requirement, OJ L 81, 21.3.2001. , the Council will take its decision after consultation of the Parliament.
Težko je natančno napovedati, koliko časa bo postopek trajal, vendar Komisija meni, da bi bili vizumi za prve države Zahodnega Balkana, ki bodo izpolnile merila iz načrtov, lahko odpravljeni do začetka leta 2010.
The exact length of the procedure is difficult to predict, but the Commission is confident that visa liberalisation could be achieved for the first Western Balkan country/countries fulfilling the roadmap criteria by early 2010.

Zadeva: Direktiva 1999/22/ES o zadrževanju prosto živečih živali v živalskih vrtovih: neizvajanje, neizvrševanje in neskladnost
Subject: Directive 1999/22/EC, relating to the keeping of wild animals in zoos: lack of implementation, enforcement and compliance
Na podlagi členov 2 in 4 direktive 1999/22/ES UL L 94, 9.4.1999, str.
Articles 2 and 4 of Directive 1999/22/EC OJ L 94, 9.4.1999, p.
24 . morajo pristojni organi v državah članicah sprejeti ustrezne ukrepe in zagotoviti, da imajo vsi živalski vrtovi, kot so opredeljeni, potrebna dovoljenja in da se v njih opravljajo redni inšpekcijski pregledi ter da delujejo v skladu z zahtevami člena 3 direktive.
24 . require the competent authorities in the Member States to take appropriate steps to ensure all zoos, as defined, are licensed and regularly inspected and further, are in compliance with the requirements of Article 3 of the directive.
Ta zahteva zdaj velja za vse države članice.
This requirement now applies to all Member States.
Glede na informacije organizacije ENDCAP, vseevropske koalicije nevladnih organizacij, katere cilj je izboljšati standarde dobrega počutja živali v ujetništvu v Evropi, menim, da pristojni organi v nekaterih državah članicah ne izdajajo dovoljenj in ne izvajajo ustreznih inšpekcijskih pregledov svojih živalskih vrtov, s čimer ne ogrožajo le živali, ki so v njihovi oskrbi, pač pa tudi obiskovalce.
It is my understanding, from information provided by ENDCAP, a pan-European coalition of NGOs which aims to raise welfare standards for wild animals in captivity in Europe, that the competent authorities in some Member States have been failing to license and properly inspect their zoos and have therefore been placing not just the animals in their care at risk, but also the visiting public.
To je zelo zaskrbljujoče.
This is deeply concerning.
Zdi se, da k temu prispevata nerazumevanje in napačna razlaga opredelitve živalskega vrta in/ali divjih živali ter predpisanih obveznosti, v nekaterih primerih pa tudi pomanjkanje zanimanja.
Misunderstanding and misinterpretation of definitions as to what constitutes a ‘zoo’ and/or ‘wild animal’, the stipulated requirements and, in some cases, a lack of interest appear to contribute to this situation.
Številne države članice menda sploh nimajo točne evidence števila živalskih vrtov in ne vedo povsem natančno, koliko jih dejansko je v državi.
It is also my understanding that many Member States do not maintain an accurate record of the number of zoos and may not be fully aware as to how many there in fact are in their country.
Ali lahko Komisija obvesti Parlament, katere države članice svojega delovanja še niso popolnoma uskladile z direktivo 1999/22/ES in na kakšen način si prizadeva zagotoviti, da bo usklajenost z omenjeno direktivo prednostna naloga?
Can the Commission inform the Parliament which Member States have yet to fully comply with the requirements of Directive 1999/22/EC and what the Commission is doing to ensure their compliance is a priority?
Ali se Komisija strinja, da je treba storiti več za popolno razumevanje, zakaj nekatere države članice in pristojni organi še niso zagotovili skladnosti z zahtevami direktive 1999/22/ES, in zakaj so živalski vrtovi (kot so opredeljeni), ki nimajo potrebnih dovoljenj in v katerih se ne izvaja reden inšpekcijski nadzor, še vedno odprti za javnost?
Does the Commission not agree that more needs to be done to fully understand why some Member States and competent authorities have yet to ensure compliance with the requirements of Directive 1999/22/EC and, further, why zoos (as defined) are not licensed and inspected on a regular basis but are still open to the public?
Morda bi lahko Komisija razmislila o reviziji direktive 1999/22/ES in vanjo vključila jasnejšo razlago zahtev in opredelitev ter s tem zagotovila kar najboljše življenjske razmere za živali v živalskih vrtovih?
Will the Commission not consider revising Directive 1999/22/EC to include greater clarification of the requirements and definitions, and to ensure animals in zoos are kept in the best conditions possible?
Dimasa v imenu Komisije
Answer given by Mr Dimas on behalf of the Commission
(28. maj 2009)
(28 May 2009)
V odgovor na vprašanje, ki ga je cenjeni član podal zvezi z Direktivo Sveta 1999/22/ES o zadrževanju prosto živečih živali v živalskih vrtovih, želi Komisija izraziti naslednje pripombe:
In response to the question raised by the Honourable Member in relation to Council Directive 1999/22/EC relating to the keeping of wild animals in zoos, the Commission would like to make the following observations:
Zgoraj navedena Direktiva o živalskih vrtovih je bila sprejeta s ciljem, da se z večjo vlogo živalskih vrtov pri ohranjanju biološke raznovrstnosti izboljšata zaščita in ohranjanje prosto živečih živalskih vrst.
The above Zoo Directive was adopted with the objective to promote the protection and conservation of wild animal species by strengthening the role of zoos in the conservation of biodiversity.
To naj bi dosegli tako, da države članice sprejmejo ukrepe za izdajanje dovoljenj za živalske vrtove in njihov inšpekcijski nadzor, ki bodo zagotovili, da živalski vrtovi spoštujejo ohranitvene ukrepe iz te direktive.
This is to be achieved by Member States adopting measures for the licensing and inspection of zoos in order to ensure that zoos respect the conservation measures set out in the directive.
Komisija spremlja, da se zakonodaja ES, kot je Direktiva Sveta 1999/22/ES, prenaša v nacionalno zakonodajo in ustrezno izvaja.
The Commission is monitoring that EC legislation such as Council Directive 1999/22/EC is transposed into national legislation and properly implemented.
V primeru pritožbe bo Komisija proučila primer in po potrebi pravno ukrepala zoper državo članico, ki ne spoštuje pravil.
In case of a complaint the Commission will examine the case and, if necessary, legal action will be taken against the Member State not respecting the rules.
Komisija je nedavno začela postopek v zvezi z možno kršitvijo obveznosti iz člena 4(2)-(5) (izdajanje dovoljenj za živalske vrtove) Direktive 1999/22/ES v Španiji.
The Commission has recently opened a procedure in relation to a possible infringement of the obligations set out in Article 4, paragraphs 2 to 5 (licensing of zoos) of Directive 1999/22/EC in Spain.
Komisija bo storila vse potrebno, da v zvezi s tem zagotovi izvajanje pravnega reda Skupnosti.
The Commission will do its utmost to ensure the implementation of the EU acquis in this regard.
