With more than 40 000 people killed on EU roads each year, the European Economic and Social Committee has urged the European Commission to get tough in its effort to cut road deaths.
Na evropskih cestah vsako leto umre več kot 40 tisoč ljudi. Zaradi tega dejstva je Evropski eko-nomsko-socialni odbor pozval Komisijo, naj okrepi svoja prizadevanja za zmanjšanje umrljivosti na cestah.
On the eve of European Road Safety Day, the EESC debated during its April plenary session new proposals from the European Commission which could save hundreds of lives each year.
Na aprilskem plenarnem zasedanju, dan pred dnevom varnosti v cestnem prometu, je Odbor proučil nove predloge Evropske komisije, s katerimi bi lahko vsako leto rešili na stotine življenj.
But many hundreds more could be saved if the proposals were not limited to transEuropean networks.
Toda če ti predlogi ne bi bili omejeni na vseevropska prometna omrežja (TEN), bi lahko preprečili še več nesreč s smrtnim izidom.
The Committee’s TEN section is currently elaborating an opinion on the INP, for which the rapporteur is Mrs Ulla Sirkeinen.
Strokovna skupina TEN Evropskega ekonomsko-soci-alnega odbora pripravlja mnenje o usmeritvenem jedrskem programu, za katerega je poročevalka Ulla Sirkeinen.
The study group, chaired by Mr Wolf, paid a visit to the AREVA facilities in France at the end of March 2007 in order to see whether reality and practice were consistent with the EESC’s past recommendations on nuclear energy.
Študijska skupina, ki ji predseduje g. Wolf, je konec marca 2007 v Franciji obiskala obrate podjetja AREVA, da bi ugotovila, ali sta dejansko stanje in praksa v skladu s prejšnjimi priporočili EESO glede jedrske energije.
AREVA is the world leader in nuclear power and the only company to cover all industrial activities in this field, covering nuclear fuel fabrication, construction of nuclear reactors, recycling operations and dismantling of decommissioned installations.
AREVA je vodilno svetovno podjetje na področju jedrske energije in edino podjetje, ki zajema vse industrijske dejavnosti na tem področju: proizvodnjo jedrskega goriva, gradnjo jedrskih reaktorjev, proces recikliranja ter razgradnjo jedrskih objektov in naprav.
of criteria had been considered by the EESC delegation.
Delegacija EESO je obravnavala več meril glede upravičenosti jedrske energije kot dela prihodnje energetske mešanice EU.
As regards the economic aspects, nuclear energy plays an important role in energy generation in Europe (nuclear accounts for about 31 % of power generation) and has the potential to play a much more important role in the future.
Z gospodarskega stališča ima jedrska energija pomembno vlogo pri proizvodnji energije v Evropi (delež jedrske energije v proizvodnji elektrike je približno 31-odstoten), v prihodnosti pa bo verjetno imela še veliko pomembnejšo vlogo.
The fact that natural resource prices are a minor cost factor and that Europe is quite competitive in this high-tech sector are important elements to be considered.
Dejstvo, da so cene naravnih virov manjši stroškovni dejavnik in da je Evropa precej konkurenčna v tem visokotehnološkem sektorju, je pomemben element, ki ga je treba upoštevati.
EESC rapporteur Jan Simons insisted that the proposals didn’t go far enough.
Poročevalec EESO, Jan Simons, je vztrajal pri tem, da predlogi Komisije ne zadostujejo.
‘When it comes to road safety, the European Commission must act in the public interest.
„Ko gre za vprašanje cestne varnosti“, je prepričan g.
It must put forward proposals to save the maximum number of lives, not the minimum.
Simons, „mora Komisija ukrepati v interesu državljanov.
This is not just a matter of public interest; it is a matter of life and death’, he said.
Predstaviti mora predloge, s katerimi bo mogoče preprečiti smrt maksimalnega, ne pa minimalnega števila ljudi.
The EESC delegation during their visit to AREVA.
Tu namreč ne gre le za interes javnosti, temveč za vprašanje življenja in smrti“.
AREVA put major emphasis on environmental considerations as well as on safety and security aspects, which are of utmost importance for the citizens and therefore decisive for the future development of this technology.
AREVA zelo poudarja zahteve varstva okolja ter vidike varnosti in zanesljivosti, ki so zelo pomembni za državljane in so zaradi tega odločilnega pomena za prihodnji razvoj te tehnologije.
All plants are equipped with a central department for collecting, analysing, controlling and evaluating a whole series of relevant environmental data.
Vsi obrati so opremljeni z osrednjo enoto za zbiranje, analizo, nadzor in ocenjevanje vrste pomembnih okoljskih podatkov.
Extensive environmental management systems and a nuclear safety charter are implemented at all the group’s sites.
Obsežni sistemi okoljskega upravljanja in kodeks za jedrsko varnost se izvajajo v vseh obratih tega kompleksa.
However, the fact that AREVA claims that nuclear energy is ‘CO2 free’ was a point of lively debate and arguments between several EESC members and company representatives.
Trditev podjetja AREVA, da jedrska energija ne proizvaja CO2, pa je sprožila živahno razpravo, med katero so si člani EESO in predstavniki tega podjetja izmenjali različna stališča.
However, it is also estimated that an extension of the directive to include main roads could save 1 300 lives per year.

Several processing plants were visited, including the facilities in La Hague, which receives spent fuels from nuclear power stations and extracts the uranium and the plutonium contained therein in order to produce new operational fuel.
Direktiva o nesrečah v cestnem prometu in varnosti infrastrukture bi v predlagani obliki veljala za obstoječi sistem vseevropskih prometnih omrežij v vseh državah članicah.
Next stop was the MELOX facility that is recycling spent fuels from nuclear power reactors, reducing the volume of waste by a factor of 5 and the radioactivity by a factor of 10.
Z vzpostavitvijo novih varnostnih ukrepov za infrastrukturo vseevropskega prometnega omrežja bi po ocenah lahko vsako leto rešili približno 600 življenj, če pa bi področje uporabe direktive razširili na nacionalne ceste, bi se to število povečalo na 1300 letno.
The visit to Eurodif demonstrated the enrichment process, i.e. increasing the proportion of Uranium 235 in the fuel, a prerequisite for the common light water reactor fuels.
Toda Komisija je kljub dejstvu, da je posvetovanje na spletu pokazalo „precejšnjo“ podporo razširitvi direktive, ostala pri omejitvi na vseevropska omrežja.
Regarding the viability of nuclear energy as an option for the future EU energy mix, a number
EESO v mnenju, sprejetem 26. aprila, zahteva, da se posveti več pozornosti analizi vzrokov nesreč na cesti, in vztraja pri tem, da se predlagana direk-
Finally, the waste problem was considered.
Ob koncu je stekel pogovor o problematiki odpadkov.
Whereas long-term disposal is already available for all shortlived, low- and medium-level waste, the long-term management of long-lived, highly-radioactive and non-recyclable waste is still the subject of intense debate.
Že zdaj sicer obstajajo odlagališča za dolgoročno skladiščenje kratkoživih, torej srednje in nizkoradioaktivnih odpadkov, potekajo pa intenzivne razprave o dolgoročnem ravnanju z visokoradioaktivnimi dolgoživimi odpadki, ki jih ni mogoče reciklirati.
In many European countries, there is much reluctance to create such sites because of the uncertain long-term evolution of this waste and the related ethical problems posed by transferring such a burden to future generations.
V mnogih evropskih državah se zelo upirajo ustvarjanju takih odlagališč zaradi negotovega dolgoročnega razvoja teh odpadkov in s tem povezane etične problematike, ki se pojavlja zaradi prenašanja bremena na prihodnje generacije.
The EESC’s opinion is scheduled for adoption in July.
Mnenje EESO bo predvidoma sprejeto v juliju.

proizvaja novo uporabno gorivo.
In the run-up to the conference, the EESC had already prepared an exploratory opinion on the issue of animal welfare labelling, which was drawn up by Mr Leif E. Nielsen, the rapporteur.
Naslednja postaja je bil obrat MELOX, ki reciklira porabljeno gorivo iz jedrskih rektorjev, pri čemer zmanjša količino odpadkov za petkrat in radioaktivnost za desetkrat.
This was distributed and discussed by the more than 270 participants and welcomed both by Horst Seehofer and Markos Kyprianou as well as by Thijs Berman, Member of the European Parliament, who chaired a working session looking at the current situation.

EU public is increasingly alive to animal welfare concerns and that the EESC, as representative of organised civil society, clearly has a responsibility to promote reflections and initiatives in this field, including the promotion of animal welfare issues outside the EU in order to avoid undermining the European system by imports from non-member countries where standards might be lower.
dobro počutje živali. Zato si mora EESO kot zastopnik organizirane civilne družbe po njegovem mnenju prizadevati za preudarjanje in pobude na tem področju, vključno s spodbujanjem tega, da se upošteva dobro počutje živali zunaj EU, da evropskega sistema ne bi mogel ogroziti uvoz iz tretjih držav, v katerih so predpisi morda manj strogi.
In its opinion, adopted on April 26, the EESC also calls for more emphasis on analysing the cause of road accidents and calls for the proposed directive to be replaced by stronger legislation which will force Member State compliance.

It also makes a number of specific infrastructure recommendations, such as improved road lighting and an increase in the number of parking areas on motorways and major routes.
Podaja tudi nekaj posebnih priporočil glede infrastrukture; tako na primer predlaga izboljšanje osvetlitve cest in povečanje števila počivališč ob avtocestah in glavnih cestah.
Horst Seehofer, the German Federal Minister for Food, Agriculture and Consumer Protection emphasised that ‘Our aim is to improve animal welfare and to establish a labelling system that is easy to understand for consumers.
Horst Seehofer, nemški zvezni minister za prehrano, kmetijstvo in varstvo potrošnikov, je zatrdil, da je „naš cilj izboljšati dobro počutje živali in oblikovati sistem označevanja, ki ga bodo potrošniki zlahka razumeli.
This must happen at a voluntary level and without creating new bureaucratic burdens.
To je treba izpeljati na prostovoljni osnovi in brez novih administrativnih obremenitev“.
EU Commissioner Markos Kyprianou, who closed the conference, also supported the development of a suitable system.
Evropski komisar Markos Kyprianou, ki je konferenco sklenil, se je tudi zavzel za vzpostavitev ustreznega sistema.
‘We have a mandate now and we will analyse the arguments which have been presented today and draw up proposals.’

The EESC strongly advocates the establishment of ‘quality coastal States’ which should deliver essential services to ships; and the creation of an EU coastal and island fund encompassing several activities will give a boost to coastal tourism.
EU je pomorske dejavnosti do zdaj obravnavala razdrobljeno in po sektorjih.
The opinion urges that maritime pollution from land-based sources and from pleasure boats, which accounts for 80 % of the overall pollution of the seas and is ignored by European policymakers, is addressed. Air pollution from ships is a complex issue and reducing one pollutant may increase others.
Sprejetje zelene knjige z naslovom „Prihodnji pomorski politiki za Evropo naproti: evropska vizija za oceane in morja“ je sprožilo prvi proces posvetovanja o tem in prvič je bil predlagan celosten, medsektorski, strateški pristop k pomorski politiki.
Therefore, the EESC supports a holistic approach. The quality of bunker oil produced by refineries is another issue which merits attention.
EESO v mnenju o zeleni knjigi, ki ga je pripravila Anna Bredima-Savopoulou, močno podpira novi pristop in večino predlogov Komisije.
The EU has tackled marine activities in a fragmented and sectoral policymaking manner so far.
EESO močno podpira uvedbo „kakovostnih obalnih držav“, ki naj bi ladjam zagotavljale osnovne storitve, ter ustanovitev evropskega obalnega in otoškega sklada, ki bo obsegal številne dejavnosti in okrepil obalni turizem.
The adoption of the Green Paper on a future maritime policy for the seas launched an unprecedented consultation process and proposed, for the first time, a holistic, cross-sectoral, strategic approach vis-à-vis the oceans.
EESO v mnenju poziva k preprečevanju onesnaževanja morja iz virov na kopnem in izletniških ladij, ki povzročajo 80 % celotnega onesnaževanja morij in jih evropski oblikovalci političnih odločitev ne upoštevajo.
In its opinion on the Green Paper, drafted by Ms Anna Bredima-Savopoulou, the EESC is earnestly supporting this new approach and most of the proposals of the Commission.
Zato EESO podpira celosten pristop. Kakovost ladijskega goriva, ki ga dobavljajo rafinerije, je še eno od vprašanj, ki ga je treba obravnavati.

The potential scarcity of EU skilled seafarers presents alarming consequences and should be addressed by an increase in investment in maritime education, and by reversing the negative public image of shipping and the lack of appreciation for the contribution of ships and seafarers to society.
Zaradi morebitnega pomanjkanja izkušenih pomorščakov je pomorska varnost v EU hudo ogrožena, kar je treba rešiti s povečanjem naložb v pomorsko izobraževanje in z ukrepi proti negativni podobi pomorskega prometa v javnosti in podcenjevanju prispevka ladijskega prometa in pomorščakov v družbi.
In this context, the creation of a European Maritime Day could contribute to increased awareness of Europeans about the importance of the seas.
V zvezi s tem bi lahko imenovanje evropskega pomorskega dneva prispevalo k boljšemu zavedanju Evropejcev o pomenu morij.
The Green Paper is the first attempt in EU policymaking to shift emphasis from land to sea and the EESC congratulates the Commission for this restoration of balance.
Zelena knjiga je prvi poskus oblikovanja evropske politike, ki preusmerja pozornost s kopnega na morje. EESO čestita Komisiji za to povrnjeno ravnovesje.

After September’s vote by MEPs on the Commis- sion’s White Paper on services of general interest, ‘it was important to help keep the debate going’, stressed Michel Delebarre, CoR President.
Po septembrskem glasovanju evropskih poslancev o beli knjigi Evropske komisije o storitvah splošnega pomena je bilo, kot je poudaril predsednik Odbora regij Michel Delebarre, „treba pomagati ohraniti zagon razprave“.
Dimitris Dimitriadis, EESC President, said that ‘it is completely natural that services of general interest play an essential role against a backdrop of global competition and globalisation, and that these services are essential for the well-being of citizens; they must be promoted and we must think about the best way to do it’.
Dimitris Dimitriadis, predsednik EESO, je povedal, da je „povsem naravno, da imajo storitve splošnega pomena v okolju, ki ga zaznamujeta konkurenca na svetovni ravni in globalizacija, ključno vlogo, saj so bistvene za dobrobit državljanov. Zato je treba te storitve obravnavati prednostno in razmisliti, kako bi to lahko bolje storili“.

Odbor se zavzema za kakovost javnih storitev
Jean-Claude Juncker, Luxembourg Prime Minister and Permanent President of the Eurogroup, gave an impassioned speech on the success of the euro at an ECO section meeting on 19 April.
Jean-Claude Juncker, luksemburški premier in stalni predsednik evroskupine, je na seji strokovne skupine ECO 19. aprila vneto govoril o uspehu evra.
He stated that 19 million new jobs had been created since the introduction of the euro, compared with just 2 million new jobs in the previous eight years, demonstrating the contribution the euro has made to the current favourable economic situation.
Dejal je, da je bilo od uvedbe skupne valute ustvarjenih 19 milijonov novih delovnih mest, v osmih letih pred tem pa 2 milijona, kar dokazuje, koliko je evro pripomogel k sedanjemu trdnemu stanju gospodarstva.
Framework legislation for services of general interest — a key component of the European social model — would help to create legal certainty for service providers and financers, not to mention consumers of these services.
Okvirna zakonodaja za storitve splošnega pomena, ki so temeljni element evropskega družbenega modela, bi prispevala k vzpostavitvi pravne varnosti tako za ponudnike in naročnike storitev kot za uporabnike.
Its common principles would cover the financing, obligations and functions of services of general interest and would apply bring. As Mr Dimitriadis stressed, it showed ‘that our two Committees can join forces to present the grassroots views’.
Skupna načela, določena z zakonodajo, bi zajemala financiranje, obveznosti in naloge storitev splošnega pomena ter bi veljala za vse storitve, ne le za posame- je bila jasen dokaz, „da lahko naša odbora združita moči za posredovanje stališč, ki so najbližje državljanom“.
