A large part of the Community’s budget is used to boost economic growth and reduce disparities between Europe’s various regions: constructing motorways and railways linking Member States, helping small firms and supporting technological research and innovation projects (e.g. for developing renewable energies), etc.
Velik del denarja Skupnosti je namenjen pospeševanju gospodarskega razvoja in zmanjšanju razlik med regijami Evrope: gradnji avtocest ali železniških prog, ki povezujejo države članice, pomoči malim podjetjem, raziskovalnim projektom in projektom tehnoloških inovacij (na primer za razvoj obnovljivih virov energije) itd.
Agriculture, which is the only policy entirely administered at EU level, receives a large share of the budget.
Kmetijstvo, ki je edina politika, ki je v celoti vodena na evropski ravni, prav tako prejme velik delež proračuna.
However, with the European Parliament’s support, other areas are growing in importance, such as preservation of the environment, particularly through the creation of regional natural parks, the conservation of protected species, the management of water resources and eorts to combat climate change.
Vendar postajajo s podporo Evropskega parlamenta pomembna tudi druga področja, kot je ohranjanje okolja, zlasti z ustanavljanjem parkov,
In recent years MEPs have made use of their powers to expand programmes promoting European cultural diversity and to encourage the distribution of artistic and cultural products and works in areas such as cinema, music, painting, photography and theatre.
V zadnjih letih so poslanci v celoti izkoristili svoje pristojnosti, da so povečali število programov, ki spodbujajo evropsko kulturno raznolikost ter pretok umetniških in kulturnih del in izdelkov na področju kinematograje, glasbe, slikarstva, fotograje, gledališča ...
Parliament has approved the creation of a Globalisation Adjustment Fund with a budget of EUR 500 million a year intended to help workers who are laid o due to industrial restructuring in an international context.
Parlament je potrdil ustanovitev Evropskega sklada za prilagoditev globalizaciji, za katerega je predvidenih 500 milijonov EUR letno in ki je namenjen pomoči delavcem, odpuščenim zaradi prestrukturiranja industrije na mednarodni ravni.
In 2009, in the middle of the economic crisis, the Fund’s scope was extended and the intervention criteria were relaxed.
Področje uporabe tega sklada se je leta 2009 sredi gospodarske krize razširilo, merila za uporabo sredstev pa so manj stroga.
The European Parliament has a say on the multiannual financial framework, which sets the expenditure ceilings in each area of EU policy.
Evropski parlament ima vpliv tudi pri oblikovanju večletnega finančnega okvira, ki določa zgornje meje odhodkov za vsako kategorijo evropskih politik.
For example, during the negotiation of the framework for the period up until 2013, MEPs had to fight hard with the Member States to secure additional funding for projects which European citizens see as important; projects such as the Erasmus programme, which every year enables over 150 000 students to study at a foreign university, European transport networks and, more generally, research and innovation.
Med pogajanji o finančnem okviru za obdobje vse do leta 2013 so se morali poslanci na primer vztrajno bojevati z državami članicami, da so pridobili dodaten denar za projekte, ki so v očeh državljanov pomembni.
Where does the Community’s money come from?
Od kod prihaja denar Skupnosti?

Following the terrorist attacks of September 2001 in the USA and those in Madrid in March 2004 and in London in July 2005, EU Member States stepped up their cooperation in the fight against terrorism.
Teroristični napadi septembra 2001 v Združenih državah Amerike, marca 2004 v Madridu in julija 2005 v Londonu so prisilili države članice, da okrepijo sodelovanje v boju proti terorizmu.
While Parliament supports the eorts to coordinate police and judicial action, which is the only eective way of countering these crossborder threats, it refuses to allow citizens’ rights to bear the brunt of a policy based entirely on security considerations.
Evropski parlament podpira prizadevanja za usklajevanje na področju policije in pravosodja, kar je edino jamstvo za učinkovitost proti tem grožnjam brez meja, vendar nasprotuje temu, da bi bile pravice državljanov kratene na račun varnostne politike.
MEPs believe that the fight against terrorism must respect individual freedoms, so as not to jeopardise the core values of European democracy.
Po mnenju poslancev je treba v boju proti terorizmu spoštovati svoboščine posameznikov, če ne želimo ogroziti vrednot, ki so temelj evropske demokracije.

Silicone implants: petitions lead to stricter legislation
Silikonske proteze: strožja zakonodaja zaradi peticij
Two petitions were submitted to the European Parliament in 1998 highlighting the negative health eects of silicone breast implants and calling for them to be banned immediately.
Dve peticiji, ki sta bili naslovljeni na Evropski parlament leta 1998, sta opozorili na škodljive učinke silikonskih prsnih vsadkov na zdravje ljudi in zahtevali njihovo takojšnjo prepoved.
The ensuing debates in Parliament, its resolutions on the subject and a study commissioned by MEPs led the Commission to clarify and strengthen the provisions on information for patients, tracking and surveillance.
Razprave in resolucije Parlamenta, ki so sledile, pa tudi študija, ki so jo naročili poslanci, so prisilile Evropsko komisijo, da je okrepila in predvidela natančnejše določbe o pojasnilu pacientom, spremljanju in nadzoru.
Parliament votes to approve the Commission en bloc in a vote of condence.
Parlament z glasovanjem potrdi Evropsko komisijo kot celoto.
However, a censure of the Commission (requiring an absolute majority of MEPs and two thirds of the votes cast) is viewed as a ‘last resort’ and has yet to occur, although in 1999 the prospect of Parliament passing a vote of no-condence in the Santer Commission over fraud allegations led to it resigning.
Ta nezaupnica vsem komisarjem (postopek, za katerega sta potrebni absolutna večina vseh poslancev in dvotretjinska večina oddanih glasov) je vendarle zadnje sredstvo in do nje še nikoli ni prišlo. Leta 1999 je verjetnost, da bo Parlament izglasoval nezaupnico Santerjevi Komisiji zaradi domnevne goljuje, pripeljala do njenega odstopa.
Commissioners are often required to appear before MEPs, at committee meetings or in plenary, to defend their policies, explain what action they intend to take and answer questions.
sarji so redno pozvani, da pred poslanci na sejah odborov ali na plenarnih zasedanjih utemeljijo svoje politike, pojasnijo ukrepe, ki jih načrtujejo, in odgovorijo na poslanska vprašanja.
MEPs scrutinise the management of Europe’s single currency by inviting the President of the European Central Bank (ECB) to come and explain his policies before its Economic and Monetary Aairs Committee.
Poslanci nadzorujejo tudi upravljanje enotne valute Evropske unije, evra, tako da povabijo predsednika Evropske centralne banke (ECB), da v Evropskem parlamentu pojasni politiko banke pred parlamentarnim odborom za ekonomske in monetarne zadeve.
Furthermore, before any appointment can be made, be it of the ECB President or of the other members of the Executive Board, Parliament has to be consulted.
Predsednik Evropske centralne banke in drugi člani izvršilnega odbora banke se lahko imenujejo le po posvetovanju s Parlamentom.

It improves the democratic legitimacy, quality and eciency of the European Union’s legislative process.
Povečuje tudi demokratično legitimnost, kakovost in učinkovitost zakonodajnega postopka Evropske unije.
When new countries wish to join the European Union, Parliament must give its consent.
Kadar se Evropski uniji želijo pridružiti nove države, mora Parlament izraziti soglasje.
MEPs check that the applicant countries full the criteria laid down in the treaties, particularly with regard to human rights.
Poslanci zlasti preverijo, ali države kandidatke upoštevajo merila, določena v ustanovnih pogodbah, zlasti tista s področja spoštovanja človekovih pravic.
It is up to the Council and the Commission to negotiate with the applicant countries and to set the date of accession, but MEPs monitor the procedure until the very day of the accession to make sure that all the conditions for membership of the EU are met.
Svet in Komisija sta pristojna za pogajanja z državami kandidatkami in za določanje pristopnih datumov, naloga evropskih poslancev pa je nadzirati proces do dneva pristopa, da se prepričajo o izpolnjevanju vseh pogojev, določenih v pogodbi.
Any country seeking membership of the European Union must conform to the ‘Copenhagen criteria’, so called after the city where, in 1993, the heads of state and government established the conditions for accession (those conditions have since been tightened).
Vsaka država, ki vloži kandidaturo za pristop k Evropski uniji, mora izpolnjevati „köbenhavnska merila“, ki so ime dobila po mestu, v katerem so voditelji držav leta 1993 določili merila za pristop (kasneje so se merila utrdila).
In addition, Parliament has called for consideration to be given both to the applicant countries’ preparations for joining and to the Union’s absorption capacity, stressing that no new enlargement will be possible on the basis of the Nice Treaty.
Parlament je opozoril, da je treba upoštevati tudi pripravljenost držav kandidatk in absorpcijsko zmogljivost Unije, pri čemer je poudaril, da na osnovi pogodbe iz Nice ni več mogoča nobena širitev.

During the last parliamentary term MEPs debated on several occasions the applicant countries’ readiness to join the EU.
V zadnjem zakonodajnem obdobju so poslanci večkrat razpravljali o pripravljenosti držav kandidatk.
They gave the go-ahead for opening negotiations with Turkey and Croatia, and supported the candidacy of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, although formal negotiations with that country have not yet started.
Zeleno luč so dali začetku pogajanj s Turčijo in Hrvaško, podprli so kandidaturo Nekdanje jugoslovanske republike Makedonije, čeprav uradna pogajanja s to državo še niso stekla.
The European Parliament is making its inuence increasingly felt in EU foreign policy and its approval is required for most international agreements entered into by the EU.
Evropski parlament povečuje svoj vpliv na zunanjo politiko EU in mora potrditi večino mednarodnih sporazumov, ki jih sklene EU.
MEPs’ assent is required for most of the international agreements which the EU enters into — a number of financial protocols with non-EU countries have been rejected by Parliament on human rights grounds.
Tudi za večino mednarodnih sporazumov, ki zavezujejo Evropsko unijo, je potrebna privolitev poslancev.
Furthermore, MEPs make recommendations to the Commission concerning the trade negotiations conducted under the auspices of the World Trade Organisation (WTO), and those recommendations carry a great deal of weight as Parliament has to approve the outcome of negotiations in the WTO.

In 2007 a temporary committee was set up to examine possible responses to climate change.
Leta 2007 je bil ustanovljen začasni odbor, da bi preučil možne evropske odgovore na podnebne spremembe.
