Furthermore, the requirement that Parliament's consent be sought (except in common foreign and security policy matters) will enhance the democratic legitimacy of the decision to establish such cooperation.
Evropski parlament, ki je prvi predlagal uporabo metode Konvencije, se lahko samo veseli te spremembe, ki bo izboljšala preglednost in demokratičnost revizijskega postopka ter mu zagotovila večjo učinkovitost.
Lastly, the fact that the Intergovernmental Conference managed to retain the `bridging clause' (`passerelle') proposed by the Convention, allowing a switch to quali«edmajorityvotingortheordinarylegislativeprocedurewithintheenhanced cooperation mechanism, is also a satisfactory development.
Še zlasti pozitivno je tudi dejstvo, da se privolitev Parlamenta zahteva zato, da bi se lahko Svet, kadar obseg sprememb tega ne upravičuje, odločil, da se Konvencija ne skliče.
It must of course be acknowledged that, in the absence of any speci«cprovisions,suchamovewasanywayalreadypermissibleunderinternational treaty law.
(2) Medvladna konferenca pri poenostavitvi revizijskega postopka na žalost ni šla tako daleč, kot je to želel Evropski parlament.

4 9 provided for in the Constitution both lays down detailed arrangements for dealing with such a situation and sends out the clear message that no Member State is obliged to continue to be involved in the European project if its people no longer wish it to be involved. When taken together withthe provisions on enhanced and structured cooperation, this clearly demonstrates that involvement in the Union and in the furtherance of its policies is something that must be chosen freely on the basis of a genuine political commitment.
49 členu IV-444 dejansko predvideva poenostavljen revizijski postopek vsebine določb iz naslova, ki se nanaša na notranje ukrepe in politike Unije – če se s takšno revizijo ne povečajo pristojnosti Unije –, vendar je bistvo takšne poenostavitve v tem, da Evropskemu svetu omogoči, da se odreče Konvenciji (ne da bi zato potreboval odobritev Evropskega parlamenta) in na vsak način ohrani zahtevo po soglasju in ratikaciji vseh držav članic.
Entry into force of the Constitution
(3) Tako se bosta za revizijo Ustave v vseh primerih še vedno zahtevala soglasje in ratikacija vseh držav članic.
The Intergovernmental Conference was convened on the basis of Article 48 of the Treaty on European Union, which stipulates that whatever the scope of the amendments it proposes be made to the existing treaties (including their repeal, as provided for in Article IV-437 of the draft Constitution), the amendments will not come into force until they have been rati«edbyall the Member States in accordance with their respective constitutional requirements.
Predlogi so ob močni podpori Evropskega parlamenta in nacionalnih parlamentov vendarle omogočili manjše omehčanje te zahteve glede revizije določb III. dela (precej podrobne in pogosto z dvomljivo ustavno naravo), še vedno ob upoštevanju glavnega načela, da bi vsako dodatno povečanje pristojnosti Unije zahtevalo soglasje držav članic.
A r t i c l e I V - 4 4 7 s t a t e s t h a t i f , t w o years after the commencement of any procedure for the rati«cationofchanges to the treaty establishing the Constitution, one - « f t h of the M e m b e r S t a t e s have yet to complete the procedure or have encountered di/cultiesin proceeding with rati«cation(whichalsocoversthepossibilityofthetexthaving been rejected by one or more of them), the matter will be referred to the European Council.
(4) Nasprotno pa se Evropski parlament lahko samo veseli ohranitve „povezovalnih”določb, ki jih je Konvencija predlagala za prehod od soglasja na kvalicirano večino v Svetu ali za prehod od posebnega zakonodajnega postopka na običajni zakonodajni postopek.
With a view to the r a t i « c a t i on of the o r i g in a l treaty e s t a b l iffs h in g the C on s t i tffu t i on , the IGC adopted a political declaration (No 30), the terms of which are similar to those of Article IV-447 referred to above, which was incorporated in the Final Act.
Dejstvo, da lahko Evropski svet takšen sklep po odobritvi Evropskega parlamenta sprejme samo soglasno in samo če mu v roku šestih mesecev ne nasprotuje nobeden od nacionalnih parlamentov, kar z vidika upoštevanja pravic vsake od držav članic ter preglednosti in demokratičnega uzakonjenja sklepa pomeni zadostno jamstvo.
In the past, in cases where problems have occurred in some Member States during the procedure for ratifying earlier treaties, the matter has of course been referred to the European Council.
(5) Drug pozitiven vidik novega ustavnega besedila se nanaša na izboljšave, uvedene na področju okrepljenega sodelovanja, ki lahko v prihodnosti ob upoštevanju precejšnjega povečanja držav članic postane še pomembnejše.
However, by including this provision in line withthe Convention's proposals, the IGC wished to send out the political message that it would be di/culttoacceptthata smallminorityof Member States prevent the others from moving forward, particularly in view of that fact that the Constitution provides inter alia for the option of voluntary withdrawal from the Union and that of taking part in enhanced or structured cooperation, in which not all the Member States are required to be involved.
Ob popolni ohranitvi pogojev, ki so nujni za zagotovitev kohezije celotne Unije in njene institucionalne enotnosti, Ustava povečuje prostor za okrepljeno sodelovanje (to se lahko razvija na vseh področjih, ki niso v izključni pristojnosti Unije, čeprav obrambe trenutno ni med njimi) in olajšuje njegovo uvedbo: združiti mora najmanj tretjino držav članic, Svet pa sprejme sklep s kvalicirano večino, razen za skupno zunanjo in varnostno politiko, kjer se še naprej zahteva soglasje.
Such a situation should give rise to negotiations aimed at « n d in g a s o l uijt i on t h a t t a k e s a c cffo u n t of n o t on l y the s i tffu a t i on of the M e m b e r

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT`S OPINION ON THE EUROPEAN CONSTITUTION
EVROPSKI PARLAMENT IN EVROPSKA USTAVA demokratično legitimiranje sklepa za vzpostavitev okrepljenega sodelovanja.
State that is unable to ratify the Constitution but also, and above all, that of the Member States that accept it.
To skupaj z določbami o okrepljenem in organiziranem sodelovanju kaže na to, da je pristop k Uniji in razvoju njenih politik dejanje svobodne izbire, ki temelji na resnični politični obveznosti.
Given the above, Parliament's overall opinion on the outcome of the IGC which concluded in June 2004 must be «rmlyinfavour,giventhatitre‹ectsa level of ambition that few people felt would be possible to attain in the geopolitical context in which the entire exercise has been conducted since the Laeken Declaration on the Future of the European Union in December 200133.
Evropski parlament lahko na podlagi zgoraj predstavljene analize v celoti vsekakor zelo ugodno oceni rezultate medvladne konference, zaključene junija 2004, saj so veliko bolj ambiciozni, kot pa je bilo po mnenju mnogih mogoče pričakovati v geopolitičnih razmerah, v katerih je potekalo celotno delo na projektu od Laekenske izjave o prihodnosti Unije decembra 200133 dalje.
The procedure under which the Constitutional Treaty was drafted by the Convention was unprecedented in terms of the level of participation and degree of transparency.
Postopek oblikovanja osnutka ustavne pogodbe je bil glede na stopnjo sodelovanja in preglednosti brez primere v zgodovini.
Subsequently, the Heads of State or Government adopted the text that will be put up for r a t i « c a t i on in a l l the M e m b e r S t a t e s .
Na njegovi podlagi so voditelji držav ali vlad sprejeli besedilo, o ratikaciji katerega bo odločala vsaka od držav članic.
The resulting document is the outcome of a compromise reached among various parties, namely the national governments and national parliaments, in which democratic legitimacy is vested at national level, the European Parliament and Commission, acting on behalf of the EU institutions, and citizens, both individually and through civil society organisations.
Nastali dokument je rezultat kompromisa, sklenjenega med različnimi udeleženci procesa, med nacionalnimi vladami in parlamenti, nosilci legitimne demokratičnosti na nacionalni ravni, Evropskim parlamentom in Komisijo, ki sta zastopala institucije EU, in državljani, tako posamezniki kot organizacijami civilne družbe.
However, `compromise' does not mean an agreement on lowest common denominators.
Kljub temu pa „kompromis” ne pomeni sporazuma na najnižjem skupnem imenovalcu.
Above all, however, the Constitution enhances democracy within the European Union, fosters more e.ectivedecision-making,ensuresgreaterclarity about who does what in the Union and the competences assigned
EVROPSKI PARLAMENT IN EVROPSKA USTAVA določbe pogodbe izjemno ambiciozne, kar se je v luči političnega konteksta, v kakršnem je od začetka procesa po sprejetju Laekenske deklaracije decembra 2001 potekalo delo, zdelo utopično.
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT`S OPINION ON THE EUROPEAN CONSTITUTION
Trdnost in gotovost, ki sta odliki celotnega ustavnega besedila, se ujemata z določbami, ki hkrati urejajo razvoj procesa odločanja in omogočajo uporabo okrepljenega in/ali organiziranega sodelovanja, ki zagotavlja potrebno prožnost za prilagoditev delovanja Unije izzivom, s katerimi se bo srečevala v prihodnjih letih.
5 1 on the one hand to the Union and on the other to the Member States.
Prav posebej pa je potrebno poudariti, da Ustava Evropski uniji prinaša več demokracije, ji omogoča večjo učinkovitost pri sprejemanju odločitev, zagotavlja večja jasnost in razumevanje vlog posameznih organov znotraj Unije pa tudi stopnjo odgovornosti Unije na eni strani in držav članic na drugi.
At the press conference that followed the closure of the Convention, the chairman, Mr Valïry Giscard d'Estaing, said that the European Parliament had emerged from the Convention as the winner.
Na tiskovni konferenci, ki je sledila po zaključku Konvencije, je predsednik Giscard d’Estaing izrazil prepričanje, da je veliki zmagovalec Konvencije Evropski parlament.
The rapporteurs consider the real winners to be the European public, because this Constitution represents the biggest step forward since the Treaties of Rome in 1957, because it consolidates our values and principles in a stimulating project for living together and because it provides the best means of jointly tackling today's challenges.
Poročevalci pa menijo, da so resnični zmagovalci državljani, ker Ustava predstavlja največji korak naprej po Rimski pogodbi iz leta 1957, ker v skupni projekt združuje naše vrednote in načela za lažje skupno življenje, ker predstavlja najboljši odgovor na vse trenutne izzive.
Given the above, Parliament should take a leading role in promoting and defending the Constitution and should help to foster and consolidate the political will required for it to be fully implemented.
Zato mora biti Evropski parlament načelu uveljavljanja in obrambe Ustave ter prispevati k spodbujanju in vzdrževanju politične volje, potrebne za njeno polno izvajanje.
This should start with an active involvement in the debates taking place in connection withthe rati«cationprocess.
Ta vloga se mora že sedaj poskusiti izraziti z dejavnim sodelovanjem pri razpravah, ki bodo spremljale ratikacijo.

The idea of adopting such a Charter, which today forms Part II of the Constitution, was «rstputforward by the German Council Presidency, which secured its acceptance by the Cologne European Council of 3 and 4 June 1999.
Zamisel o sprejetju takšne listine, ki je sedaj II. del osnutka Ustave, prihaja od nemškega predsedstva Sveta, ki je doseglo, da jo je sprejel Evropski svet v Kölnu 3. in. 4.6.1999.
I t was decided to establish a `body' - subsequently termed `Convention' - bringing together the four component parts of the Convention on the Future of Europe, but without the involvement of the applicant States.
Tedaj se je odločilo o oblikovanju “tabora” - ki so ga nato poimenovali “Konvencija” -, ki bi združeval štiri sestavne elemente, ki so v Konvenciji o prihodnosti Evrope, vendar brez udeležbe držav kandidatk.
The Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community (EAEC/Euratom) is not, however, a . e c t e d b y the C on s t i tffu t i on and w i l l the r e for e r e m a in in force a l on g s i d e i t , a l t h o u g h s o m e of i t s p r o v iffs i on s have been amended by the Protocol modifying the Euratom Treaty with a view to making them compatible withthe constitutional text.
Pripomnimo, da Ustava ne zadeva pogodbe Euratom, čeprav protokol o spremembi pogodbe Euratom spreminja nekatere njene določbe, da bi se ujemale z ustavnim besedilom.
However, Germany, Ireland and Austria have expressed the wish, in declaration No 44 annexed to the Final Act of the IGC, that an Intergovernmental Conference be convened as soon as possible to revise the Euratom Treaty.
Vendar pa so Nemčija, Irska in Avstrija v izjavi št. 44 priloge sklepne listine medvladne konference (CIG) izrazile željo za čimhitrejši sklic medvladne konference za revizijo pogodbe Euratom.
Besides, it has to be said that the constitutional treaty is completed by a confusing number of protocols, annexes and declarations: 36 protocols (most of which were annexed to the existing treaties and have simply been adapted to the constitutional text, for instance those on the Schengen acquis, the role of national parliaments, the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality, transition provisions concerning the institutions, structured permanent cooperation in matters of defence, etc.), two annexes (already existing, concerning the list of agriculture products and the list of countries and overseas territories) and 46 declarations.
Poleg tega je treba upoštevati, da ustanovno pogodbo dopolnjuje zmešnjavo povzročajoče število protokolov, prilog in izjav. Dejansko gre za 36 protokolov (od katerih jih je bilo 29 že veljavnih, denimo schengenski, medtem ko jih je 8 novih in zadevajo področja, kot so vloga nacionalnih parlamentov, načela subsidiarnosti in proporcionalnosti, prehodne določbe, ki se nanašajo na institucije, organiziranost stalno sodelovanje na področju obrambe itd.), 2 prilogi (že obstoječi, ki zadevata seznam kmetijskih pridelkov ter seznam držav in čezmorskih ozemelj) in 46 izjav.
As these protocols have the same legal force as the constitutional treaty, they must also be r a t i « e d b y a l l M e m b e r S t a t e s .
Formalno morajo te protokole raticirati tudi vse države članice in imajo enako pravno moč kot ustanovna pogodba.

Nasprotno pa izjave niso pravno obvezujoče in ni potrebno, da jih raticirajo države članice.
Paragraph 7 of Article II-112, which refers to the explanations drawn up on the authority of the Praesidium of the Convention that drew up the Charter of Fundamental Rights and Declaration No 12 annexed to the Final Act of the IGC, which incorporates those explanations.
Odstavek 7 člena II-112, ki se nanaša na razlage oblikovane pod vodstvom Prezidija Konvencije, ki je sestavil Listino o temeljnih pravicah ter izjava št. 12 sklepne listine medvladne konference (CIG), ki upošteva njene obrazložitve.
Although the role assigned to the European Council in operating an `emergency brake' in connection with certain decisions concerning social security and judicial cooperation in criminal matters may mean that, even if it does not directly perform legislative functions (it does not participate in the adoption of legally binding rules) it may at least interfere in a virtually decisive manner in a legislative procedure - cf. below, points 9.1.4 and 9.2.7.
Čeprav lahko vloga, dodeljena Evropskemu svetu na področju «varnostne zavore» glede nekaterih sklepov o socialni varnosti in sodnem sodelovanju v kazenskih zadevah, privede do tega, da se, če že ne izvaja neposredno zakonodajnih nalog (ne sodeluje pri sprejemanju standardov), vsaj skoraj odločilno vmešava v potek zakonodajnega postopka) – glej točki 9.1.(4) in 9.2.(7) spodaj.
The fact that the IGC introduced the requirement that at least four Member States should vote against a proposal in order to form a blocking minority means that in some circumstances a decision could be adopted withthe support of far less than 62% of the population, which is the threshold set for the population criterion in the Nice Treaty: thus a decision opposed, for example, by Germany, France and Italy would nonetheless be adopted, even though its proponents represented only about 55% of the
Dejstvo, da je medvladna konferenca uvedla zahtevo po negativnem glasovanju najmanj 4 držav članic za sestavo manjšine, ki lahko prepreči sprejetje odločitve, dejansko pomeni, da se lahko v določenih okoliščinah sprejme odločitev z veliko manj kot 62 % prebivalstva, kar je bil prag, določen v Nici za merilo o prebivalstvu: tako bo odločitev, ki bi ji nasprotovale Nemčija, Francija in Italija, kljub temu sprejeta, čeprav bi predstavljala samo okrog 55 % prebivalstva, kajti te 3 države ne morejo sestavljati manjšine, ki lahko prepreči sprejetje odločitve, čeprav same predstavljajo malo manj kot 45 % prebivalstva Unije
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT`S OPINION ON THE EUROPEAN CONSTITUTION population, as these three Member States cannot by themselves form a blocking minority even though between them they represent almost 45% of the population of the EU (in its current 25-member form).
(na podlagi sedanjih 25-ih držav članic). Poleg tega je treba upoštevati, da različne možne kombinacije, da bi dosegli prag ponderiranih glasov, potrebnih za kvalicirano večino, pomenijo, da je bil v veliko primerih zahtevani odstotek prebivalstva dosti večji od teh vrednosti.
On the other hand, it may be hoped that raising the threshold for the number of Member States will not, in practice, have a very s i g n i « c a n t n e g a t i v e i m p a c t .
Po drugi strani lahko upamo, da dvig pragov držav članic v praksi ne bo imel zelo velikega negativnega učinka.
5 5 % of M e m b e r S t a t e s in s t e a d of h a l f ( 5 0 % ) w o u l d mean that in the 25-member EU 14 Member States would be required to vote in favour instead of 13, without the additional requirement formulated by the IGC that the majority must include at least 15 Member States; the number of Member States required to prevent a decision from being adopted will now be 12 instead of 13.
55 % namesto 50 % v Uniji 25 držav namreč pomeni 14 držav članic namesto 13. Nasprotno bo manjšino, ki lahko prepreči sprejetje odločitve, sestavljalo 12 držav namesto 13.
In practice, the possible increase in the risks of blockage due to this increase is certainly not very great.
V praksi morebitno povečano tveganje preprečitve sprejetja odločitve zaradi tega povečanja gotovo ni zelo veliko.
In reality, decisions are never taken withthe Member States divided into two antagonistic blocs of virtually identical proportions.
Dejansko se predpostavka o odločitvi, ki se sprejme, ko so države članice razdeljene v dva nasprotna, skoraj enaka bloka, v praksi nikoli ne uresniči.
Moreover, the additional requirement of at least 15 Member States, referred to above, will no longer be of any independent signi«canceoncethe EU has 27 or more Member States, as is likely to be the case from 2009, when the new system enters into force (in a Union with 27 members, 55% of States is in any case equivalent to 15 Member States).
Kar zadeva dodatno zahtevo medvladne konference, da večina vključuje najmanj 15 držav članic, moramo poudariti, da nima pomena, ko bo Unijo sestavljalo 27 držav članic, kar se bo verjetno zgodilo leta 2009, ko bo začel veljati novi sistem (v Uniji 27-ih držav je 55 % vsekakor enako 15-im državam članicam).
It should also be recalled that, besides the two corrective criteria mentioned in the text (the minimum number of States required for a blocking minority (4) and the minimum number of States required for the adoption of a decision (15)), the IGC also reached agreement on a kind of revised Ioannina compromise for a transitional period (Declaration No 5 to the Final Act of the IGC): if members of the Council representing at least 3/4 of the number of Member States or of the population required to block a decision indicated their opposition to the adoption of a Council act by a quali«edmajority,the Council would continue to debate the subject with a view to reaching wider agreement within a reasonable period.
Opozoriti moramo tudi, da se je medvladna konferenca poleg dveh korektivnih meril, omenjenih v dokumentu (najmanj 4 države za oblikovanje manjšine, ki lahko prepreči sprejetje odločitve, in najmanj 15 držav za sprejetje odločitve), sporazumela tudi o vrsti kompromisa iz Ioannine, revidiranem za prehodno obdobje: če člani Sveta, ki zastopajo najmanj 3 države članice ali 3 države na ravni prebivalstva, potrebne za preprečitev sprejetja odločitve, nasprotujejo, da Svet sprejme akt s kvalicirano večino, Svet nadaljuje razpravo o tej temi, da bi v razumnem roku dosegel širše soglasje.
This agreement was formalised in a draft decision which the European Council approved.
Ta sporazum je formaliziran v osnutku odločitve, ki ga je Evropski svet potrdil.
This decision will remain in force at least until 2014, when the Council could revoke it.
Ta odločitev bo ostala veljavna najmanj do leta 2014, ko jo bo Evropski svet lahko razveljavil.
It should also be recalled that the Constitution provides that when an initiative from the Commission is not required, or when a decision is not adopted at the initiative of the Minister for Foreign A.airs,therequired q u a l i « e d m a jo r i t y iffs t o b e b i g g e r : 7 2 % of M e m b e r S t a t e s ( a s a g a in s t the 2 / 3 p r o po s e d b y the C on v en t i on ) , representing 65% of the population (as against the 60% proposed by the Convention).
Poleg tega je treba tudi opozoriti, da Ustava predvideva, da se, kadar se ne zahteva pobuda Komisije ali kadar se odločitev ne sprejme na pobudo ministra za zunanje zadeve, zahtevana kvalicirana večina okrepi: 72 % držav članic (namesto 2/3, kot je predlagala Konvencija), ki združujejo najmanj 65 % prebivalstva (namesto 60 %, kot je predlagala Konvencija).
