In his statement to the EESC’s December plenary session, Mr Sepi put forward a number of measures for starting and accompanying the changes which are necessary today in order to build sustainable development in Europe. ese measures were focused on the urgent need for innovation. ese concrete and fundamental proposals are, for the
S temi ukrepi, ki morajo biti izraz skupne evropske odgovornosti, se je treba spoprijeti z izzivi, odpraviti pomanjkljivosti pri izvajanju in usklajeno povezovati vse strategije EU (strategijo za oživitev, lizbonsko strategijo ter strategijo za trajnostni razvoj in boj proti podnebnim spremembam). (mp)
Speaking at the informal meeting of EU employment and social affairs ministers in Barcelona on 27–29 January 2010, EESC President Sepi welcomed the consensus reached on social issues and a real employment policy in the EU 2020 strategy as a‘good starting point for the future’. e main results of the meeting, organised by the Spanish presidency, included recognition for the importance of adopting an EU 2020 strategy with an important social chapter and a full employment policy linked to global strategies.
Predsednik EESO Sepi je v govoru na neformalnem srečanju ministrov EU za zaposlovanje in socialne zadeve od 27. do 29. januarja 2010 v Barceloni pozdravil soglasje glede socialnih vprašanj in resnične politike zaposlovanja v strategiji EU 2020 ter ga označil za„dobro izhodišče za prihodnost“. Med najpomembnejšimi rezultati srečanja, ki ga je organiziralo špansko predsedstvo, je bilo priznanje, da je treba sprejeti strategijo EU 2020 s pomembno socialno razsežnostjo in politiko polne zaposlenosti, vezano na globalne strategije.

of gender equality in external and development policies. e EESC was first asked to issue an opinion on the roadmap in 2006 and it has once again been invited to let the Commission know the position of organised civil society on the matter. e opinion was discussed at the EESC March plenary session and the follow-up strategy for the roadmap is expected to be adopted by the Commission in June 2010. (mp) e EESC is expected to indicate future challenges and main policy priorities for gender equality.
EESO naj bi v mnenju opredelil prihodnje izzive in glavne politične prednostne naloge na področju enakosti med spoloma. Odbor je že večkrat opozoril, da je enakost žensk in moških več kot le cilj, ki ga je treba doseči, saj je hkrati tudi nujni pogoj za uresničitev ciljev EU na področju rasti, zaposlovanja in socialne kohezije.
In particular, the EESC has already pointed out that not only is equality between women and men an aim in itself, but it is also a prerequisite for meeting the EU’s aims for growth, employment and social cohesion.In addition, the EESC has also underlined the importance of considering a global approach to tackle the issue of equality between women and men.
Poudaril je tudi, da je za obravnavo tega vprašanja potreben celostni pristop. Politika EU bi si morala prizadevati ne le za večjo udeležbo žensk na vseh področjih, temveč tudi za enakopravnejšo porazdelitev odgovornosti za družino, skrbi za družinske člani in nalog v gospo-

Načrt, ki ga je Evropska komisija sprejela marca 2006, se osredotoča na šest političnih področij: enako ekonomsko neodvisnost za ženske in moške, usklajevanje zasebnega in poklicnega življenja, enako zastopanost pri odločanju, izkoreninjenje vseh oblik nasilja na podlagi spola, odpravo stereotipov o spolih ter spodbujanje enakosti med spoloma v zunanjih in razvojnih politikah.

Grand Gala of Polish business
Slavnostni večer poljskih podjetij
I visited a very big 3 000-pupil secondary school in Quimper, Brittany, which was chosen at random to represent France.
Pod okriljem projekta „Vaša Evropa, vaš glas“, v okviru katerega člani EESO obiskujejo šole v svojih državah, sem bila gostja v zelo veliki šoli s 3 000 učenci, ki je bila izžrebana med francoskimi šolami. Njena značilnost je, da se nahaja na skrajnem robu Evrope, v Bretanji, nasproti Amerike.
My first meeting was with the teacher and the three pupils who had been selected, two girls and a boy.
Najprej je bilo na vrsti srečanje z učiteljem in tremi izbranimi učenci: dvema dekletoma in enim fantom.

How were they chosen?
Zakaj so bili izbrani ravno ti trije?
‘Because they are politically engaged and they speak English well’, says the teacher.
„Ker so angažirani in dobro govorijo angleško,“ je povedal učitelj.
One represents the school on the regional youth council, another is involved in a Comenius project and the third is the leader of an association.
Eno dekle zastopa gimnazijo v regionalnem svetu mladih, fant sodeluje v Comeniusovem projektu, drugo dekle pa vodi eno od društev.

All three were excited about being chosen and kept saying how lucky they were. ey asked if they were able to film the day’s proceedings, so that they could show the others.
Vsi trije so bili navdušeni nad tem, da so bili izbrani za srečanje, večkrat so ponovili, da so imeli srečo, in spraševali, ali smejo posneti reportažo o tem dnevu, da bi jo pokazali ostalim.
Next, several classes took part in debates on European integration, in which many questions were raised — and some doubts too — about a Europe that‘fails to respect the outcome of referendums’.
Sledila je razprava s celotnimi razredi o evropskem povezovanju, med katero so učenci zastavili veliko vprašanj in izrazili tudi nekaj dvomov o Evropi, „ki ne spoštuje rezultatov referendumov“.
is year’s BCC Special Prize,awarded for promoting entrepreneurship and the market economy, went to Jerzy Buzek.

Poleg tega je podjetnici in dvema podjetnikoma iz Poljske podelilo odlikovanje za socialno solidarnost, s katerim je nagradilo njihova prizadevanja za spodbujanje in uresničevanje socialne odgovornosti podjetij v praksi. (mb)

Stronger cooperation needed to combat VAT fraud
Tesnejše sodelovanje je nujno za boj proti goljufijam na področju DDV
Civil society can triumph where politics fails in the Mediterranean e February plenary session witnessed a debate between the EESC and heads of Economic and Social Councils (ESCs) from across the Euromed region.
Na februarskem plenarnem zasedanju je potekala razprava med EESO in vodji ekonomsko-social-nih svetov iz celotne regije Euromed.
It aimed to lay the foundations for more robust cooperation between civil society organisations on both sides of the Mediterranean in the framework
Cilj razprave je bil položiti temelje za okrepljeno sodelovanje med organizacijami civilne družbe na obeh straneh Sredozemlja v okviru Unije za Sredozemlje.
‘Food in general and milk in particular are too important for the well-being of citizens to be leto the vagaries of a free, unregulated market’, notes Frank Allen (Various Interests Group, Ireland), rapporteur for the opinion on the future of the EU dairy strategy, which was adopted at the plenary session on 17 February.
„Hrana in še posebej mleko sta preveč pomembna za dobrobit državljanov, da bi ju lahko prepustili nestanovitnosti prostega, nereguliranega trga,“ meni Frank Allen (skupina raznih dejavnosti, Irska), poročevalec za mnenje o prihodnosti strategije EU za mlekarsko industrijo, ki je bilo sprejeto na plenarnem zasedanju 17. februarja.
e EESC strongly backs enhanced administrative cooperation to combat VAT fraud.
Davčne goljufije v EU povzročajo škodo, ki znaša 2–2,5 % BDP, tj. med 200 in 250 milijard EUR.
Tax fraud in the EU amounts to between 2 and 2.5 % of GDP, i.e. between EUR 200 and 250 billion. e application of the current regulation has been unsatisfactory, argues the EESC in its opinion on combating VAT fraud by rapporteur Umberto Burani (Employers’ Group, Italy), adopted by the EESC plenary session on 17 February.
EESO v mnenju o boju proti goljufijam na področju DDV, ki ga je pripravil poročevalec Umberto Burani (skupina delodajalcev, Italija) in ki je bilo sprejeto na plenarnem zasedanju 17. februarja, ugotavlja, da je uporaba veljavne uredbe nezadovoljiva.
e Committee warns that since milk production is a key driver for the future of many areas in the EU, deregulation of the market poses a serious threat to the cultural heritage and multifunctional development of the EU’s rural areas.
Ker je proizvodnja mleka gonilo prihodnosti številnih področij v EU, Odbor meni,da bi deregulacija trga resno ogrozila kulturno dediščino in večnamenski razvoj podeželja v EU.
It refers in this connection to definitive abolition of the milk quota system, which some fear might occur in 2015.
Pri tem opominja na ukinitev sistema mlečnih kvot, do česar naj bi po nekaterih bojaznih prišlo že leta 2015.
In their speeches, presidents of councils from the Maghreb and Mashreq countries, including the Palestinian territories and Israel, stressed the urgency of tackling pollution, migration-related problems and the importance of enhancing business cooperation between the EU and the region.
V svojih govorih so predsedniki ekonomsko-socialnih svetov iz držav Magreba in Mašreka,pa tudi iz Palestine in Izraela, poudarili nujno obravnavanje onesnaženosti in migracijskih problemov ter pomen izboljšanja poslovnega sodelovanja med EU in to regijo.
Yehuda Talmon, President of the Israeli ESC, called for cultural barriers to be overcome.
Predsednik izraelskega ekonomsko-socialnega svetaYehuda Talmon je pozval k premagovanju kulturnih ovir.
‘Ignorance on both sides can be overcome thanks to civil society involvement’.
„Z vključevanjem civilne družbe lahko na obeh straneh premagamo nevednost,“ je dejal.
e proposed recast of the regulation changes the approach to protecting VAT revenues by equipping Member States with tools enabling them to cooperate closely and exchange information faster.
Predlagana prenovitev uredbe spreminja pristop v zvezi z zaščito prihodkov od DDV, saj državam članicam daje pripomočke, ki jim omogočajo tesnejše sodelovanje in hitrejšo izmenjavo informacij.
e Committee highlights the threat of increasing concentration in the retail sector, which has given it unmatched bargaining power and turned farmers from ‘price-makers’ into ‘price-takers’. e Committee stresses the crucial importance of stable prices and fair incomes for dairy farmers in ensuring the supply of high-quality dairy products and preserving a vibrant rural environment in Europe. (mb)
EESO opozarja na nevarnost vse večje koncentracije v trgovini na drobno, ki je s tem pridobila edinstveno pogajalsko moč, kmetje pa ne morejo več oblikovati cen, temveč jih lahko le še sprejemajo. Po mnenju Odbora so stabilne cene in primerni dohodki proizvajalcev mleka ključnega pomena za varno oskrbo s kakovostnimi mlečnimi proizvodi in ohranjanje dinamičnega evropskega podeželja. (mb)
Filip Hamro-Drotz, President of the EESC’s Section for External Relations, stressed that the success of the Mediterranean partnership depended on its ‘fi rm rooting in civil society’.
Predsednik strokovne skupine za zunanje zadeve Filip Hamro-Drotz je poudaril, da je uspeh sredozemskega partnerstva odvisen od njegove „zasidranosti v civilni družbi“.
In the same vein, EESC President Mario Sepi underlined the importance of dialogue between civil society representatives in ‘defusing problems that are insurmountable to politicians’. (mb) e creation of a common structure to combat VAT fraud (Eurofisc) may be the most significant innovation. e EESC draws attention to a long-standing issue, namely ‘the need to establish cooperation with other bodies engaged in the fight against organised crime and money laundering’. (ds)
Morda najpomembnejša novost je vzpostavitev skupne strukture za boj proti goljufijam na področju DDV (Euro- f i fisc). Odbor pri tem opozarja na vidik, za katerega se že dolgo zavzema, tj. „vzpostavitev povezave in sodelovanja z drugimi organi, ki delujejo na področju boja proti organiziranemu kriminalu in pranju denarja“.
