Fuller summaries of the case-law are available on the Europa website of the Commission’s Legal Service.
Na institucionalnem področju so bile še posebej pomembne tri sodbe Sodišča:
In Commission v Council (1) the Court clarified the dividing line between the EC Treaty and the‘second pillar’of the EU Treaty — i.e. the common foreign and security policy — when it comes to choosing the correct legal basis for a given instrument.
• v zadevi Komisija proti Svetu(2) (sodba z dne 20. maja) je Sodišče pojasnilo razmejitev med Pogodbo ES in drugim stebrom Pogodbe EU, tj. področjem skupne zunanje in varnostne politike pri izbiri ustrezne pravne podlage za določen akt.
It found that measures taken to combat the proliferation of small arms and light weapons, being aimed also at preventing fragility in developing countries, could contribute to the elimination or reduction of obstacles to those countries’ economic and social development.
Ugotovilo je, da lahko ukrepi, sprejeti v okviru boja proti razširjanju orožja malega kalibra in lahkega strelnega orožja, ter ukrepi za preprečevanje ranljivosti držav v razvoju prispevajo k odpravi ali zmanjšanju ovir za gospodarski in družbeni razvoj teh držav.
It accordingly annulled the Council decision inasmuch as it was based on a CFSP provision and the measures in question also fell within a competence conferred by the EC Treaty.
Sodišče je zato sklep Sveta razglasilo za ničen, kolikor temelji na določbi SzVP in ti ukrepi spadajo v pristojnost, ki jo priznava Pogodba ES;
In Kadi v Council and Commission (2) the Court held that the full review by the Community courts of the validity of all measures subject to their jurisdiction in the light of fundamental rights was the expression of a constitutional guarantee stemming from the EC Treaty.
• v združenih zadevah Kadi proti Svetu in Komisiji(3) (sodba z dne 3. septembra) je Sodišče poudarilo, da je treba popolni nadzor sodišča Skupnosti glede veljavnosti vseh aktov v njegovi jurisdikciji z ozirom na temeljne pravice šteti za izraz ustavnega jamstva v pravni skupnosti, ki izhaja iz Pogodbe ES.
Setting aside the judgments of the Court of First Instance, the Court ruled itself on the merits of the case and took a stand in particular on the issue of respect for the rights of the defence. While the Community authorities were not required to communicate the grounds or to hear the persons concerned prior to the inclusion of their names in the list of persons and entities whose funds were to be frozen, they ought nevertheless to have done so within a reasonable period of such a measure being taken.
Sodišče je razveljavilo sodbi Sodišča prve stopnje, samo odločilo o njuni vsebini in se izreklo zlasti o spoštovanju pravic do obrambe. čeprav organi Skupnosti niso bili zavezani, da zadevne osebe obvestijo o razlogih ali jih zaslišijo pred prvo vključitvijo njihovih imen na seznam posameznikov in subjektov, katerih sredstva in gospodarski viri se zamrznejo, pa so bili vendarle zavezani, da to opravijo v razumnem roku po uvedbi teh ukrepov;
In Sweden and Turco v Council (3) the Court examined the conditions governing disclosure to the public of legal opinions given in the context of a legislative process.
• v združenih zadevah Švedska in Turco proti Svetu(4) (sodba z dne 1. julija) je Sodišče obravnavalo pogoje razkritja pravnih mnenj, danih v okviru zakonodajnega postopka, javnosti.
It took the view that it was precisely transparency — by enabling differences between several points of view to be openly debated — that contributed to increased citizen involvement in the decision-making process and to greater legitimacy, efficiency and responsibility of the institutions in the eyes of citizens in a democratic system.
Po mnenju Sodišča lahko ravno javnost, ki omogoča odprto razpravo o različnih stališčih, lahko omogoča državljanom, da tesneje sodelujejo v postopku odločanja, in zagotavlja, da so institucije deležne večje zakonitosti ter so učinkovitejše in bolj odgovorne državljanu v demokratičnem sistemu.
The disclosure of such an opinion could be refused only if, for example, there was a real risk of the interest of the institution concerned in seeking frank, objective and comprehensive advice being undermined.
Razkritje takšnega pravnega mnenja bi bilo mogoče med drugim zavrniti samo, če bi obstajalo resnično tveganje za poseg v interes zadevne institucije, da zahteva in prejme odkrite, objektivne in popolne nasvete.
The Court delivered three particularly noteworthy judgments on questions of citizenship and the free movement of persons.
Na področju državljanstva in prostega pretoka oseb je treba omeniti tri sodbe Sodišča:
In Feryn (4) the Court clarified the scope of the protection afforded by Community law against discrimination based on race or ethnic origin and ruled that public statements by which an employer let it be known that it would not recruit any employees of a certain ethnic or racial origin constituted per se direct discrimination in respect of recruitment inasmuch as such statements were likely to strongly dissuade some applicants from applying for the post and hence to impede their access to the labour market.
• v zadevi Feryn(5) (sodba z dne 10. julija) je Sodišče pojasnilo obseg zaščite, ki ga zagotavlja pravo Skupnosti v primerih diskriminacije na podlagi rase ali narodnosti, ter ugotovilo, da to, da je delodajalec javno izjavil, da ne bo zaposlil delavcev, ki so določene narodnosti oziroma rase, pomeni neposredno diskriminacijo pri zaposlovanju, saj očitno resno odvrača nekatere kandidate, da bi predložili svoje kandidature, in s tem ustvarja oviro za njihov dostop do trga dela;
Case C-91/05.Joined Cases C-402/05 P and C-415/05 P. Joined Cases C-39/05 P and C-52/05 P.Case C-54/07.
Podrobnejši povzetki sodne prakse so na voljo na spletišču Europa pravne službe Komisije.zadeva C-91/05.združeni zadevi C-402/05 P in C-415/05 P. združeni zadevi C-39/05 P in C-52/05 P.zadeva C-54/07.
In Coleman (1) the Court clarified the scope of the prohibition of direct discrimination on grounds of disability laid down in directive 2000/78/EC, which established, in regard to employment and occupation, the legal framework for combating discrimination based on religion or belief, disability, age or sexual orientation.
• v zadevi Coleman(1) (sodba z dne 17. julija) je Sodišče podrobno določilo obseg prepovedi neposredne diskriminacije na podlagi invalidnosti, določene v Direktivi 2000/78/ES, ki opredeljuje splošni pravni okvir boja pri zaposlovanju in delu proti diskriminaciji zaradi vere ali prepričanja, invalidnosti, starosti ali spolne usmerjenosti.
It held that the prohibition laid down in the directive applied not only to conduct directed at an employee who was himself disabled, but also to that directed at an employee who was treated less favourably by reason of the disability of his child, for whom he was the primary provider of the care required by virtue of the child’s condition.
Ugotovilo je, da se prepoved iz Direktive ne nanaša samo na ravnanje zoper zaposlenega, ki je invalid, ampak tudi na ravnanje zoper zaposlenega, ki ni invalid, vendar je manj ugodno obravnavan zaradi invalidnosti svojega otroka, ki mu v glavnem sam nudi oskrbo, ki jo zahteva njegovo zdravstveno stanje;
In Mayr (2) the Court extended its case-law on equal treatment for men and women and clarified the scope of the prohibition of dismissal of pregnant workers laid down in directive 92/85/EEC.
• v zadevi Mayr(2) (sodba z dne 26. februarja) je Sodišče poglobilo svojo sodno prakso glede enakega obravnavanja moških in žensk ter podrobneje določilo prepoved odpusta nosečih delavk v skladu z Direktivo 92/85/EgS.
Taking into account the earliest possible date for the existence of pregnancy, the protection could not apply in the case of in vitro fertilisation where the fertilised ova had not yet been transferred into the woman’s uterus.
Ob upoštevanju najzgodnejšega datuma obstoja nosečnosti bi se pri oploditvi in vitro varstvo zoper odpust začelo šele s prenosom oplojenega jajčeca v maternico ženske.
), in the first two using the new urgent preliminary ruling procedure — the Court laid down important pointers as to how to interpret the decision on the European arrest warrant (Kozłowski and Santesteban Goicoechea) and the‘Brussels II bis’regulation from the point of view of the conditions governing the enforcement of a judicial decision ordering the return of a child wrongfully retained in another member State (Rinau).
Kar zadeva področje pravice, svobode in varnosti je Sodišče tri sodbe izdalo v še posebej kratkem času: Rinau (4) (sodba z dne 11. julija), Santesteban Goicoechea (5) (sodba z dne 12. avgusta) in Kozłowski (6) (sodba z dne 17. julija), pri čemer je v prvih dveh zadevah uporabilo novi nujni postopek predhodnega odločanja (PPU), ter v njih določilo pomembne kazalnike za razlaganje sklepa o evropskem nalogu za prijetje (Kozłowski in Santesteban Goicoechea) in uredbe, imenovane„Bruselj IIa“, v zvezi s pogoji izvrševanja sodne odločbe o odreditvi vrnitve otroka, ki je nezakonito zadržan v drugi državi članici (Rinau).
In the area of the environment, in Commune de Mesquer (7), a case brought following the sinking of the oil tanker Erika, the Court clarified once more the scope of the concept of waste in Community law and held that, in the circumstances of a shipwreck, hydrocarbons mixed with water and sediment and drifting along the coastline of a Member State had to be classified as waste within the meaning of directive 75/442/EEC.
Na področju okolja je Sodišče v zadevi Commune de Mesquer (7) (sodba z dne 24. junija) v sodbi, ki jo je izdalo po pomorski nesreči tankerja Erika, znova pojasnilo obseg pojma odpadkov v smislu prava Skupnosti ter odločilo, da je treba v primeru pomorske nesreče ogljikovodike, ki se pomešajo z vodo in usedlinami ter se pomikajo vzdolž obale države članice, opredeliti kot odpadke v smislu Direktive 75/442/EgS o odpadkih.
It also analysed the conditions governing liability for the cost of disposing of the waste.
Poleg tega je analiziralo pogoje odgovornosti za stroške odstranjevanja teh odpadkov.

Letno poročilo o izvrševanju proračuna Evropske unije za leto 2007 (1) je bilo objavljeno 10. novembra.
For the first time since the accrual accounting rules were introduced, the Court gave an unqualified opinion on the consolidated accounts. The opinion on the underlying transactions was, on the whole, similar to that for the previous financial year: although most of the payments audited by the Court were made in accordance with the rules, the Court still considered that the level of error affecting payments to final beneficiaries, such as farmers and the promoters of projects financed by the European Union, was too high.The Court stressed the need to improve supervisory and control systems and recommended that the rules be simplified.
Prvič po uvedbi pravil o računovodstvu na podlagi nastanka poslovnega dogodka je Sodišče izdalo mnenje brez pridržkov glede konsolidiranih računovodskih izkazov. mnenje o poslovnih dogodkih je na splošno podobno mnenju iz prejšnjega leta: čeprav je večina plačil, ki jih nadzira Sodišče, izvedenih v skladu s pravili, Sodišče še vedno meni, da je stopnja napake pri izplačilih končnim upravičencem, kot so kmetijski proizvajalci in pobudniki projektov, ki jih financira Unija, še vedno previsoka. Sodišče poudarja potrebo po izboljšanju nadzornih in kontrolnih sistemov ter priporoča poenostavitev pravne ureditve.
The special reports produced by the Court of Auditors in 2008 concerned the following:

EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL COMMITTEE
EVROPSKI EKONOmSKO-SOCIaLNI ODBOR
Two vice-Presidents were also elected: Ms Irini Pari (responsible for communication) and Mr Seppo Kallio (responsible inter alia for budgetary matters).
Kallio (odgovoren za različne dejavnosti, vključno s proračunsko skupino).
The Committee’s priorities in 2008 centred on the strengthening of participatory democracy, the renewal of Europe’s productive structures through the Lisbon strategy, and the practical application of the rights inherent in the European social model.
Prednostne naloge leta 2008 so zadevale okrepitev predstavniške demokracije, obnovitev produktivnih struktur evropske družbe prek lizbonske strategije ter konkretno uresničevanje pravic evropskega socialnega modela.
The Committee’s President-elect introduced a new procedure aimed at grouping opinions on the same subject in the interests of non-repetitive debate.
Poleg tega je novoizvoljeni predsednik Odbora vzpostavil nov postopek, ki je namenjen zbiranju mnenj glede istega vprašanja, kar omogoča razpravo brez ponavljanja.
The question of the Committee’s future was raised at the plenary session on 17 and 18 September.
Na zasedanju 17. in 18. septembra je bila obravnavana prihodnost Odbora.
Some members called for the Committee to have a more political profile, as the only way for it to make a stronger impact. moreover, its opinions were considered often too long, their wording not always clear and their distribution too slow.
Nekateri člani so izrazili željo, da bi Odbor pridobil bolj političen značaj, ter presodili, da bo samo tako bolj upoštevan. Poleg tega so presodili, da so mnenja pogosto predolga, niso vedno izražena v jasnem jeziku in njihovo širjenje ni dovolj hitro.
It was also suggested that the section presidents group should be revived to enable a more judicious selection of which opinions to deliver.
Predlagano je bilo tudi, da se ponovno oblikuje skupina predsednikov oddelkov, kar naj bi omogočilo natančnejšo izbiro mnenj, ki jih je treba dati.
Relations with the other institutions were also touched upon: it was felt that there was not enough feedback from them and it was not clear whether the Committee’s advisory function was being taken into account.
Obravnavani so bili tudi odnosi z drugimi institucijami: poudarjeno je bilo pomanjkanje odziva s strani drugih institucij, prav tako pa tudi pomanjkanje jasnosti v zvezi z upoštevanjem posvetovalne vloge Odbora.
In a similar vein, some members considered that the real work began after an opinion was adopted and that a careful check should be kept on how the Committee’s work was disseminated to the outside world.
Prav tako so nekateri člani menili, da se pravo delo začenja šele po sprejetju mnenja in da je treba pozorno spremljati, kako se delo Odbora širi navzven.
At its plenary session on 9 and 10 July the Committee extended its scope for action by creating a Lisbon strategy observatory, operational until October 2010, which will work closely with the Committee’s ECO section.
Na zasedanju 9. in 10. julija je Odbor razširil svoje možnosti delovanja z ustanovitvijo opazovalnice za lizbonsko strategijo, ki bo delovala do oktobra 2010 in bo tesno sodelovala s svojo strokovno skupino ECO.
The Committee adopted several opinions in the area of employment and social affairs, concerning inter alia sanctions against employers of illegally staying third-country nation-

), ali na razliko v plačah med moškimi in ženskami (
Flexicurity was also on the agenda.
Predmet razprave je bila tudi prožna varnost.
In this context, the Committee adopted an opinion on the new social action programme aimed at enhancing the social dialogue and an opinion on the programme on services to business.
Odbor je poleg tega izrazil svoje mnenje o energetskih in okoljskih vprašanjih. mnenje o uporabi energije iz obnovljivih virov je na primer poudarilo, da mora delež obnovljivih energij na srednji in dolgi rok znatno presegati 20-odstotni cilj, zastavljen za leto 2020.
In response to a request by the Slovenian Presidency, the Committee delivered an opinion on improving the situation of young people on the labour market (1).
Poleg tega je izrazil svoje nestrinjanje z zamislijo, da bi se na nacionalni ravni oblikovala dražba za prodajo pravic do emisije, pri čemer bi se 20 % prihodkov obvezno namenilo ukrepom,
It also voiced its disagreement with the idea of organising emission quota auction sales at national level with an obligatory 20 % of income going to measures aimed at reducing CO emissions. In its opinion on energy efficiency, the Committee

At its five plenary sessions in 2008, the Committee presented 54 opinions, of which three were outlook opinions.
Leta 2008 je Odbor med petimi plenarnimi zasedanji oblikoval 54 mnenj, od tega tri predhodna mnenja.
It adopted three resolutions and seven owninitiative opinions.
Sprejel je tri resolucije in sedem mnenj na lastno pobudo.
The Committee’s priorities centred on reform of the European Union budget, the energy and climate change package, the Lisbon strategy objectives, promotion of cohesion policy and the European territorial cooperation grouping, cultural diversity, neighbourhood policy, multi-level governance and subsidiarity.
Prednostne naloge Odbora so se nanašale na reformo proračuna Evropske unije, sveženj o energiji in podnebnih spremembah, cilje lizbonske strategije, spodbujanje kohezijske politike in evropske skupine za teritorialno sodelovanje, kulturno raznolikost, sosedsko politiko, upravljanje na več ravneh in subsidiarnost.
At its 73rd plenary session on 6 and 7 February the Committee renewed its leadership.
Vodstvo Odbora je bilo prenovljeno na 73. zasedanju 6. in 7. februarja.
The Committee also elected its 24 vice-Presidents and other Bureau members, together with the political group chairmen.
Odbor je prav tako izvolil svojih štiriindvajset podpredsednikov in drugih članov predsedstva ter predsednike političnih skupin.
On the budgetary front, at its 74th plenary session on 9 and 10 April the Committee voted a 9.2 % increase in the budget estimates (under the preliminary draft budget for 2009) owing primarily to the increased workload caused by subsidiarity.
V zvezi s proračunskimi vprašanji se je Odbor na 74. zasedanju 9. in 10. aprila opredelil za povečanje proračunskih predlogov za 9,2 %, predvsem zaradi razvoja dejavnosti v zvezi s subsidiarnostjo (za predhodni predlog proračuna za leto 2009).
On the same occasion, it expressed the wish to be included in the debate on European budget reform.
Ob tej priložnosti je Odbor tudi izrazil željo, da bi smel sodelovati pri razpravi o reformi evropskega proračuna.
during the year the Committee played an active part in promoting the role of territorial entities.
med letom je Odbor regij dejavno sodeloval pri spodbujanju vloge ozemeljskih enot.
