We should in particular increase our efforts to strengthen our relations with the European Parliament, as itsimportance has steadily grown over the past decade.This is clearly the“new frontier”.
Zlasti bi morali povečati prizadevanja za krepitev odnosov z Evropskim parlamentom, saj se je njegov pomen vpreteklem desetletju neprestano povečeval. To je spet nov izziv.
I want to establish regular contacts with the EP’s Conference of Committee Chairmen and with the chairmen of thepolitical groups.
S konferenco predsednikov odborov Evropskega parlamenta in s predsedniki političnih skupin želim navezati rednestike.
We need a more active presence and participation of our members in meetings of the parliamentary Committees.
Naši člani morajo biti bolje prisotni in bolj dejavno sodelovati na sestankih parlamentarnih odborov.
I will explore how and under what conditions we can revitalise the EESC/EP contact group.
Raziskalbom, kako in pod kakšnimi pogoji lahko oživimo kontaktno skupino EESO/EP.
Notwithstanding these efforts, our rapporteurs will play a key role in this approach: it is up to them to contact theircounterparts on the EP side, i.e. the rapporteurs of the European Parliament, on their subject and to monitor to whatextent the opinions delivered by the Committee are bringing an added value to the decision-making procedure.
Ne glede na ta prizadevanja bodo naši poročevalci imeli ključno vlogo pri tem pristopu: sami morajo vzpostaviti stikes svojimi partnerji v EP, tj. poročevalci Evropskega parlamenta o njihovi temi, in spremljati, v kolikšni meri mnenja Odbora prispevajo dodano vrednost v postopku odločanja.
In order to facilitate this process, I have launched an update of the Consolidated Guide to Preparing Opinions.
Da bi pospešil ta proces, sem predlagal posodobitev izpopolnjenega priročnika za pripravo mnenj.
Our members should be invited to participate more frequently in meetings of the Council and its working groups.
Naši člani bi morali biti pogosteje vabljeni na seje Sveta in njegovih delovnih skupin.
Asteady dialogue should be maintained with the General Secretariat of the Council on the working methods of the Council.
Z generalnim sekretariatom Sveta bi moral potekati stalen dialog o delovnih metodah Sveta.
Even more important is the close observation of the priorities of the Council Presidencies.
Še pomembneje je skrbno spremljanje prednostnih nalog predsedstev Sveta.
I have already mentioneda few with regard to the German and Slovenian Presidencies.
Nekaj nalog nemškega in slovenskegapredsedstva sem že omenil.
In addition,I will seek to hold bilateral contacts with the Permanent Representations of the Member States whenever necessary.
Poleg tega si bom prizadeval za dvostranske stike s stalnimi predstavništvi držav članic,kadar koli bo to potrebno.
But most important are the exploratoryopinions we have received from the German Presidency, regarding notably the Challenges of globalisation, which Ihave earmarked as one of our thematic priorities.
Toda najpomembnejša so zaprosila za raziskovalna mnenja, ki smo jih prejeli od nemškegapredsedstva, zlasti o izzivih globalizacije, ki sem jih določil za eno naših tematskih prednostnih nalog.
The envisaged addendum to thisprotocol, based on the Communication “Communicating Europe”, willfurther strengthen relations and ensure closer cooperation betweenthe Committee and the Commission.I hope it will be signed in the firstquarter of 2007.
Predvideni dodatek k protokolu na podlagi sporočila oseznanjanju z Evropo bo dodatno okrepil odnose in zagotovil tesnejšesodelovanje med Odborom in Komisijo. Upam, da bo podpisan vprvem četrtletju leta 2007.
Protocol of Cooperopean Commission between the Eur opean Economic and the Eur te e and Social Commit
Sekretariat naša mnenjapo sprejetju na plenarnem zasedanju seveda pošlje Komisiji, toda Komisija prejme mnogo dokumentov…
Relations with the national Economic and Social Councils (ESCs)
Odnosi z nacionalnimi ekonomsko-socialnimi sveti
As a first step in assuming a“leadership role” in the network of ESCs in the European Union, I have invited the respective Presidents of all the national ESCs to come to Brussels to attend the Bureau meeting in April 2007 and to participate ina debate on institutional reform.
Moj prvi korak pri prevzemu „vodstvene vloge“ v mreži ekonomsko-socialnih svetov v Evropski uniji je bilo povabilopredsednikov vseh nacionalnih ekonomsko-socialnih svetov v Bruselj, da se udeležijo seje predsedstva aprila 2007 insodelujejo v razpravi o institucionalni reformi.
One of my ambitions is to succeed in convincing all stakeholders in Cyprus of the benefits they can obtain fromestablishing a national Economic and Social Council.
Eden mojih ciljev je prepričati vse zainteresirane strani na Cipru o koristih, ki jih lahko prinese ustanovitev nacionalnegaekonomsko-socialnega sveta.
Another is to maintain via the EESC members from the countriesthat do not have a national ESC – including such important Member states as Germany or the UK – stable links with themain socio-professional organisations and NGOs.
Drugi cilj je prek članov EESO, ki prihajajo iz držav, ki nimajo nacionalnega ekonomskosocialnega sveta – kamor med drugim spadata tako pomembni državi članici kot sta Nemčija in Združeno kraljestvo –,vzdrževati stalne stike z najpomembnejšimi socialno-poklicnimi organizacijami in nevladnimi organizacijami.
Dialogue with Civil Society in Europe
Dialog s civilno družbo v Evropi
I intend to establish formal cooperation agreements with the main socio-professional organisations at the request of the Groups, with the collaboration of the Chairman of each Group.
Na zahtevo skupin in ob sodelovanju predsednika vsake skupine nameravam z glavnimi socialno-poklicnimiorganizacijami skleniti formalne sporazume o sodelovanju.
Transparency regarding the work, composition and functioning of the Liaison group with civil society, is important inorder to avoid the EESC becoming assimilated to a large NGO.
Preglednost dela, sestave in delovanja povezovalne skupine s civilno družbo je pomembna, zato da bi preprečili, da EESO postane neke vrste velika nevladna organizacija.
We need to establish new criteria or to reconsider the already existing ones regarding the approach and thecollaboration with civil society organisations inside and even more so outside the EU.
Sprejeti moramo nova merila ali znova proučiti sedanja merila o pristopu in sodelovanju z organizacijami civilne družbev EU in zlasti zunaj nje.
THE COMMITTEE’S OWN AFFAIRS
NOTRANJE ZADEVE ODBORA
As a general remark on this final chapter of my programme,let me say that we can be proud of our Committee.
Dovolite mi, da v tem zadnjem poglavju mojega programa na splošno pripomnim, da smo lahko ponosni na svoj Odbor .
We havegood working bodies that deliver excellent results.
Imamo dobre delovne organe z odličnimi rezultati.
But as a result of past and recent enlargements, I believe it is timeto start a general reflection on their shape and working methods (including probably the sensible question of the useof languages).
Toda zaradi preteklih in sedanjih krogov širitve menim, daje nastopil čas, da začnemo splošen razmislek o njihovi obliki in delovnih metodah (med drugim najbrž o občutljivemvprašanju uporabe jezikov).
I would not predict the outcome, nor the timetable of such a reflection, but my feeling is we should notavoid it.
Ne želim napovedovati rezultatov niti časovnega razporeda tovrstnega razmisleka, todamenim, da se mu ne bi smeli izogibati.
Renegotiating the Cooperation Agreement with the Committee of the Regions (CoR)
Ponovna pogajanja o sporazumu o sodelovanju z Odborom regij (OR)
A first step was to sign a prolongation of the present agreement for six months,plus an automatic additional six-month extension if necessary, to reach a stableagreement for the next ten-year period.
Prvi korak je bil podaljšanje sedanjega sporazuma za šest mesecev s samodejnimdodatnim šestmesečnim podaljšanjem, če bo potrebno, da bi dosegli trdensporazum za obdobje naslednjih desetih let.
Negotiations between monitoringgroups from both sides are under way.My aim is clear:continue cooperation with Joint Services and a maximum of synergies, while respecting budget neutrality.
Med skupinama za spremljanjeobeh strani potekajo pogajanja. Moj cilj je jasen: nadaljevati sodelovanje v oblikiskupnih služb in čim večjimi sinergijami, obenem pa spoštovati proračunskonevtralnost.
I will rely very much on the assistance of Vice-President Alexander von Schwerinfor this exercise.
Pri tem mi bo pomagal podpredsednik Alexander Graf von Schwerin.
But I am even more ambitious.
Toda moji načrti so še bolj ambiciozni.
I will also discuss with the President of the Committee of the Regions how we can intensify our cooperation on politicalissues, with a view to organising joint conferences and projects.
S predsednikom Odbora regij bomrazpravljal tudi o tem, kako lahko okrepimo sodelovanje pri političnihvprašanjih z organizacijo skupnih konferenc in projektov.
Furthermore,it is necessary to keep abreast of the Committee of the Regions’ work, andsupport our Sections when they need to get in touch with the CoR.
Poleg tega moramobiti na tekočem z delom Odbora regij in podpirati strokovne skupine, komorajo navezati stike z OR.
Functioning of the Committee: Fewer and better opinions, better follow-up
ART & BUILD + arhitekturni atelje Paul NOËL© Arhitekti: Delovanje Odbora: manj mnenj, vendar boljših – boljše spremljanje
An important point, on which I noticed broad consensus amongst those of you who sent contributions is certainly anincreased, if not dramatic, prioritisation of our obligatory opinions.
Med tistimi, ki ste mi poslali svoje prispevke, sem ugotovil široko soglasje o potrebi po večjem, celo radikalnemrazvrščanju obveznih mnenj po pomembnosti, kar je pomembna zadeva.
We issue too many and we do not concentrateenough on political priorities.
Objavljamo preveč mnenj in ne osredotočamose dovolj na politične prednostne naloge.
I will discuss with the Bureau, the Groups and Sections how to better prioritise and whichprocedures we could introduce to focus on priorities and drastically reduce the number of obligatory opinions. Ofcourse, this will in no way jeopardise the institutional role of the Committee.
S predsedstvom, skupinami in strokovnimi skupinami bom razpravljal o tem,kako bolje razvrstiti mnenja po pomenu in katere postopke bi lahko uvedli, da bi se osredotočili na prednostne nalogein korenito zmanjšali število obveznih mnenj.
Instead, we should encourage our initiativeopinions for which a well-defined screening will be absolutely necessary. Regarding requests for exploratory opinionsreceived from EU institutions, they are always by definition of particular relevance and interest for our Committee.
Seveda to nikakor ne bo ogrozilo institucionalne vloge Odbora.Nasprotno, spodbuditi moramo pripravo mnenj na lastno pobudo, za katera bo nujno treba dobro opredeliti postopekizbora.Raziskovalna mnenja, za katera zaprosijo institucije EU, so že po naravi vedno posebej pomembna za Odbor in vnjegovem interesu.
In addition – and I have already mentioned it – we have to ensure a more structured follow-up of opinions.
Poleg tega moramo, kot sem že omenil, zagotoviti bolje strukturirano spremljanje mnenj.
They shouldalso be more concise and condensed.
Mnenja bi morala biti tudi boljjedrnata in strnjena.
Finally, we should ideally be ahead of the Commission’s reflections in order toinspire them and then monitor closely the follow-up of the Commissions proposals.
Nenazadnje bi morali biti v naših razmišljanjih po možnosti pred Komisijo, da bi ji dajali navdih innato podrobno spremljali njene predloge.
Streamlining plenary sessions and politicising Bureau meetings
Racionalizacija plenarnih zasedanj in večji poudarek na političnihvprašanjih na sejah predsedstva
I definitely intend to reduce the burden of bureaucratic activity in the Committee and around plenary sessions.
Vsekakor nameravam zmanjšati obremenitev z birokratskimi postopki v Odboru in v zvezi s plenarnimi zasedanji.Menim, da moramo na vsako plenarno zasedanje povabiti pomembno osebnost, da bi razpravljali o političnopomembnih temah.
Iconsider that it is necessary to invite an important personality to each of our plenaries, in order to discuss matterswhich are of political interest.I will maintain the tradition of my predecessor,to arrange members’(national) eveningsor cultural evenings at the end of the first day of a plenary session.
Ohranil bom tradicijo svoje predhodnice, da se ob koncu prvega dne plenarnega zasedanjapripravijo (nacionalne) večerne prireditve za člane ali kulturni večeri.
Communication policy
Politika obveščanja
I am happy that we have nominated a very enthusiastic Communication Group under the chair of Vice-President Jillian van Turnhout.The Group is eager to elaborate an ambitious Communication strategy that will involve:
Veseli me, da smo imenovali zelo zavzeto skupino za obveščanje pod predsedstvom podpredsednice Jillian van Turnhout.
− an even more professional use of the media and publicity by the Committee;
Skupina si prizadeva pripraviti ambiciozno strategijo obveščanja, ki bo vsebovala:
− the establishment of a properly targeted publications programme;
− še bolj profesionalno uporabo medijev in večjo promocijo s strani Odbora;
− conferences in partnership with other institutions;
− oblikovanje ustrezno ciljno usmerjenega programa publikacij;
− encouraging the organisation of decentralised thematic stakeholders’forums; forums;
− konference v sodelovanju z drugimi institucijami;
− contributions to the (Golden) 50th anniversaries of the EU (2007) and in particular of the EESC (2008);
− spodbujanje organizacije decentraliziranega tematskega foruma zainteresiranih skupin;
The Communication Group meeting on 1 February 2007.

− prispevke k (zlati) 50. obletnici EU (2007) in zlasti EESO (2008);
Now is the most appropriate moment to better communicate and to publicise the importance of our Committeeregarding European citizens’shared values at this critical moment for Europe.
Nastopil je najprimernejši trenutek, da bolje obveščamo in seznanjamo javnost o pomenu našega Odbora v zvezi sskupnimi vrednotami evropskih državljanov v tem ključnem trenutku za Evropo.
Modernising further the administration (Secretariat)
Nadaljnje posodabljanje uprave (sekretariata)
I wish to compliment our staff, which is headed by a long-experienced and very competent Secretary-General, Patrick Venturini, and his fellow Directors.The quality of its work is well appreciated by all of us and it enjoys a good reputationamong the institutions.
Našemu osebju, ki ga vodi zelo sposoben generalni sekretar z dolgoletnimiizkušnjami Patrick Venturini, in direktorjem želim čestitati. Vsi zelo cenimonjihovo kakovostno delo, ki med institucijami uživa dober ugled.
The Secretariat has accomplished substantial achievements in applying modern standards at alllevels of administration and management.
Sekretariat jez uporabo sodobnih standardov na vseh ravneh upravljanja in vodenja dosegelpomembne dosežke.
But as in the other public institutions, constant progress is a must.
Toda neprestani napredek je – kot v drugih javnihinstitucijah – nujen.
Thereforeto be of the best possible service to members of the Committee during my term of office, together with the Secretary-General and other senior staff members,but of course also in consultation withthe staff representatives, I will evaluate the introduction of the most advancedadministrative practices and techniques (for instance IT-applications, ADONISand the creation of an Audit Monitoring Group).
Da bi v času svojega mandata čim bolje služil članom Odbora, bom skupaj z generalnim sekretarjem in drugimi vodilnimi članiosebja ter seveda tudi ob posvetovanju s predstavniki osebja ocenil uvedbonajsodobnejših upravnih postopkov in metod (npr. programi IT, Adonis invzpostavitev skupine za nadzor revizije).
We are our own worst enemies: we have too great a tendency to be satisfied with little and to close our eyes whenwe see truths that annoy us.
Sami sebi smo največji sovražniki: vsi se preveč nagibamo k temu, da smo zadovoljni z malim in da zapiramo oči predneprijetno resnico.
We have done well in the past and we can do even better in the future.
Že v preteklosti smo delali dobro, vendar lahko v prihodnje delamo še bolje.
The EU member States where an ESC or a similar institution has been established:
Države članice EU, ki so že ustanovile ESS ali podobno institucijo:

For more information please contactthe central CESlink coordination point at the EESCor your national Council.
Za dodatne informacije se obrnite naosrednjo koordinacijsko točko za CESlink v EESOali vaš nacionalni svet
The CESlink portal provides information on events and initiatives organisedby the EESC and national ESCs.
Portal CESlink nudi informacije o dogodkih in pobudah EESO in nacionalnih ESS ter informacije o njihovih dokumentih.
It provides citizens with easy access to extensiveinformation on the EESC and the national ESCs via one portal.
Državljanom na enemsamem mestu zagotavlja preprost dostop do obsežnih informacij o EESOin nacionalnih ESS.
The portalalso strengthens debate and information sharing between the EESC andthe national ESCs on common areas of interest, such as the Lisbon Strategy,communication and external relations.
Namen portala je tudi krepiti razpravo in izmenjavoinformacij med EESO in nacionalnimi ESS na področjih skupnega interesa, kot so lizbonska strategija, komunikacija in zunanjiodnosi.
In 2000, the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) and thenational Economic and Social Councils (ESCs) set themselves the common goal of creating a central information point to help the generalpublic to find out more about their institutions and work.
V letu 2000 so Evropski ekonomsko-socialni odbor (EESO) in nacionalniekonomsko-socialni sveti (ESS) sklenili, da bodo skupaj ustanovili osrednjo informacijsko točko, ki bo širši javnosti v pomoč pri spoznavanjuinstitucij in njihovega dela.
The Internetwas identified as the best tool for the job.
Internet se je izkazal kot najboljše sredstvo zadosego tega cilja.
A working group called CESlink was set up, and the first concrete result was a common portal.This is how the CESlink project began and it has gradually been expanded to cover other common activities.
Ustanovljena je bila delovna skupina CESlink, prvi konkretni rezultat njenega dela pa je bil skupni portal. Ta je zaznamovalzačetek projekta CESlink, ki se je postopoma razširil na druge skupnedejavnosti.
The EESC became the coordination point of the CESlink project since it isactive at EU level.
Ker je EESO dejaven na ravni EU, je postal koordinacijska točka za projekt CESlink.
The EESC is a consultative body of the European Union,and it participates in the European Union's decision-making process bydelivering opinions to the European Parliament, the Council of the European Union and the European Commission.
EESO je posvetovalno telo Evropske unije in sodeluje v postopku odločanja Evropske unije s pripravo mnenj za Evropski parlament,Svet Evropske unije in Evropsko komisijo.
The Committee also actsas a bridge between Europe and civil society via its Members, whorepresent the various economic and social components of organised civilsociety.
Deluje tudi kot most med Evropo in civilno družbo, saj so njegovi člani predstavniki različnih ekonomskih in socialnih komponent organizirane civilne družbe.
The EESC and the national Councils also cooperate in other fields.
EESO innacionalni sveti sodelujejo tudi na drugih področjih.
The CESlink database contains a selection of recent national ESC publications.
Podatkovna baza CESlink vsebuje izbor novejših publikacij nacionalnih ESS.
The database is freely accessible to all Internet users via the CESlink portal as well as the websites of each participating national ESC.Moreover, thanks to the database's search engine,users can search for documents by Council, date, document type and subject.
Prosto dostopna je vsem uporabnikom interneta prek portala CESlink ter spletnih strani vsakega sodelujočega ESS. Z iskalnikompodatkovne baze lahko uporabniki iščejo dokumentepo različnih kriterijih (ESS, datum, vrsta dokumenta intema).

A Programme for Europe: proposals of civil society
Program za Evropo: predlogi civilne družbe
Presentation by the President
Predsednikova predstavitev
For the first time in its history, the European Economic and Social Committee is to adopt a comprehensive, detailed and timely document on the ongoing political debate and the urgent and concrete problems facing Europe - A programme for Europe: proposals of civil society.
Evropski ekonomsko-socialni odbor prvič, odkar obstaja, sprejema dokument, v katerem se celovito, podrobno in pravočasno opredeljuje do aktualne politične razprave in nujnih, konkretnih vprašanj Evrope: Program za Evropo: predlogi civilne družbe.
This programme enables the Committee to take a position on two major issues: the need for economic and social recovery on the one hand, and the European elections on the other.
S tem programom se Odbor odziva na potrebo, da zavzame stališče do dveh pomembnih vprašanj: iskanja izhoda iz gospodarske in družbene krize ter do evropskih volitev.
Through this programme, the Committee calls on the European institutions, the Member States, the political and social powers, and hence, on citizens of the European Union, to ensure that the European elections are about European issues and not only about matters of national interest.
Odbor s tem programom poziva evropske institucije, države članice, politične in družbene akterje ter posledično evropske državljane, naj zagotovijo, da bodo evropske volitve potekale na podlagi resnično evropskih, ne pa zgolj nacionalnih vprašanj.
This is especially important at this time, when all European countries are engaged in the debate on economic and financial recovery.
To je še toliko pomembnejše v trenutku, ko vse evropske države razpravljajo o oživitvi gospodarstva in izhodu iz finančne krize.
This debate requires European responses and common decisions.
Ta razprava mora ponuditi evropske odgovore in skupne odločitve.
Through A Programme for Europe: proposals of civil society, the Committee presents the institutions with a set of measures and actions which Europe must undertake in order to support progress-oriented and sustainable economic and social recovery.
S svojim Programom za Evropo: predlogi civilne družbe Odbor institucijam predlaga sveženj ukrepov in pobud, ki jih mora Evropa sprejeti v podporo trajnostni, k napredku usmerjeni oživitvi gospodarstva in družbe.
The Committee has set itself the goal of supporting the consolidation of European integration, our democracies as well as our responses to public needs.
Odbor si je za cilj zadal utrjevanje evropskega povezovanja, naših demokracij in odzivov na potrebe ljudi.
