The Commission therefore wishes to strengthen the role of the programme in the future, in particular by presenting every three years, starting in 2008, a report on implementation over the previous period.
Komisija bi tako rada okrepila to vlogo v prihodnosti, zlasti s predložitvijo, od leta 2008 dalje, triletnega poročila o izvajanju programa v preteklem obdobju.
The Stability and Growth Pact, based on a political agreement reached at the Amsterdam European Council in June 1997, is intended to ensure sound management of public nances in the Union in order to prevent a lax budgetary policy in one Member State from penalising the other Member States via interest rates and undermining confidence in economic stability.
Namen Pakta stabilnosti in rasti, ki temelji na političnem sporazumu, doseženem na zasedanju Evropskega sveta v Amsterdamu junija 1997, je zagotoviti dobro upravljanje javnih financ v Evropski uniji, da ne bi bile zaradi manj stroge proračunske politike ene države članice z obrestnimi merami kaznovane druge države in se ne bi ogrozilo zaupanje v gospodarsko stabilnost.
It also seeks to encourage sustained and durable convergence of the economies of the Member States belonging to the euro area.
Njegov namen je tudi spodbujati neprekinjeno in trajnostno zbliževanje gospodarstev držav članic euroobmočja.
In view of the difficulties and inadequacies identified in recent years in implementing the pact, the basic provisions were updated in 2005 to enable it to be applied fairly and consistently in all countries and to be understood by the general public.
Po težavah in nekaterih pomanjkljivostih, ugotovljenih v preteklih letih pri izvajanju Pakta, so bile v letu 2005 posodobljene temeljne določbe, da bi se Pakt v vseh državah lahko uporabljal na enak in usklajen način ter da bi ga splošna javnost razumela.
The reform allows more account to be taken of economic trends, though the two lynchpins of the pact — the 3 % reference gure for the de cit-to-GNP ratio and the 60 % reference gure for the debt-to-GNP ratio — have been maintained.
Ta reforma je bila izvedena ob dodelitvi več pozornosti upoštevanju gospodarskega razvoja, ob ohranitvi povezave med dvema nominalnima temeljema Pakta, tj. med referenčno vrednostjo 3 % za delež med primanjkljajem in bruto domačim proizvodom (BDP) ter referenčno vrednostjo 60 % za razmerje med dolgom in BDP.
The reform reinforces the commitment to a sustainable minimum structural adjustment.
Reforma spodbuja uvedbo trajnostne najmanjše strukturne prilagoditve.
Changes were made to the pact’s preventive arm, introducing the possibility of differentiating the medium-term budgetary objectives according to the level of debt and the potential for growth and even, in certain circumstances, of temporarily deviating from these budgetary objectives in the case of major structural reforms.
Uvedene so bile spremembe preventivnega vidika Pakta, s katerimi je predvidena zlasti možnost razlikovanja srednjeročnih proračunskih ciljev glede na dolg in potencialno rast, tj. da bi se v primeru večjih strukturnih reform v določenih okoliščinah upoštevala tudi možnost začasnega odklona od teh proračunskih ciljev.
Amendments were also made to the corrective arm of the pact in order to re ect more accurately the realities of an enlarged European Union of 25 Member States.
Spremenil se je tudi korektivni vidik Pakta za boljše upoštevanje dejanskega stanja v razširjeni Uniji s 25 državami članicami.
PROSPERITY
CILJ BLAGINJE
In a communication of 13 June (1) the Commission gave a positive assessment of the rst year of application of the revised Stability and Growth Pact.
V sporočilu z dne 13. junija (1) je Komisija pozitivno ocenila prvo leto uporabe revidiranega Pakta stabilnosti in rasti.
The revision allowed Member States in a situation of excessive de cit to move back below or close to the 3 % threshold by means, in particular, of more pragmatic deadlines and structural measures.
Ta revizija je državam članicam s čezmernim primanjkljajem dejansko omogočila, da primanjkljaj zmanjšajo pod prag 3 % ali se mu približajo, zlasti po zaslugi bolj pragmatičnih rokov za prilagoditev in strukturnih ukrepov.
In the view of the Commission, the new pact has thus regained credibility, although its preventive arm calls for additional efforts from the Member States, which are asked to consolidate their public nances.
Po mnenju Komisije je novi Pakt ponovno pridobil verodostojnost, čeprav njegov preventivni del zahteva dodatna prizadevanja držav članic za okrepitev njihovih javnih financ.
On 11 July the Council also gave a positive assessment of the rst year and wanted to take the opportunity a orded by the favourable economic situation to pursue and accelerate budgetary consolidation efforts.
Svet je 11. julija prav tako pozitivno ocenil prvo leto uporabe revidiranega Pakta. To ugodno gospodarsko okolje želi izkoristiti za nadaljevanje in pospeševanje prizadevanja za okrepitev javnih financ.
However, at its February session (2) the European Economic and Social Committee had taken the view that, since reform of the pact was still not complete, guidelines were needed on strengthening European economic governance.
Nasprotno pa je Evropski ekonomsko-socialni odbor na svojem zasedanju februarja (2) ocenil, da je reforma Pakta še vedno nepopolna in je zato treba določiti smernice, na podlagi katerih se bo lahko okrepilo evropsko gospodarsko upravljanje.
Similarly, in a resolution adopted on 17 May, the European Parliament expressed concern at the difficulties in implementing the pact.
Evropski parlament je v resoluciji z dne 17. maja prav tako izrazil zaskrbljenost zaradi težav pri uporabi Pakta stabilnosti in rasti.
Alongside this assessment of the reform of the pact itself, the Community institutions conducted their annual review of the situation in each Member State.
Razen teh stališč glede reforme samega Pakta so institucije Skupnosti opravile svoje letno preverjanje stanja v vsaki državi članici.
On the basis of Commission recommendations, the Council successively adopted its opinions on the updated stability and convergence programmes of the EU-25: on a case-by-case basis, it found that they complied fully, broadly or partially with the requirements of the revised Stability and Growth Pact.
Tako je na podlagi priporočil Komisije Svet zaporedoma sprejel svoja mnenja o posodobitvah programov stabilnosti in konvergenčnih programov vseh petindvajsetih držav članic: ocenil je, dati programi v celoti, v veliki meri ali pa delno ustrezajo zahtevam revidiranega Pakta stabilnosti in rasti.
At its spring session the European Council noted that 12 Member States were in excessive de cit (the Council had judged the United Kingdom’s de cit to be excessive in January) and that the debt levels were above 60 % of GDP in several Member States.
Evropski svet je na spomladanskem zasedanju ugotovil, da je v tistem času dvanajst držav članic Unije imelo čezmerni primanjkljaj – primanjkljaj Združenega kraljestva je Svet ocenil za čezmernega v mesecu januarju – in da je stopnja dolga v več državah članicah presegala 60 % bruto domačega proizvoda.
It called upon Member States to use the opportunity of the evolving economic recovery to pursue scal consolidation in line with the Stability and Growth Pact.
Zato je države članice pozval, da izkoristijo pojavljajočo se oživitev gospodarstva za okrepitev javnih financ v skladu s Paktom stabilnosti in rasti.
On 11 July (3), in the light of the recovery of the situation in Cyprus, the Council repealed a previous decision on the existence of an excessive de cit in that country.
Sanacija stanja na Cipru je tako Svet vodila k temu, da je 11. julija (3) razveljavil predhodno odločbo o obstoju čezmernega primanjkljaja v tej državi.
Similarly, on 29 November the Commission recommended that the Council close the excessive de cit procedure opened in respect of France in view of the improvement of its public de cit (4).
Komisija je 29. novembra (4) Svetu prav tako priporočila, da ustavi postopek v zvezi s čezmernim primanjkljajem, ki ga je sprožila proti Franciji, saj je slednja odpravila svoj javnofinančni primanjkljaj.
On the other hand, on 14 March the Council adopted a decision giving Germany o cial notice to bring its public de cit as quickly as possible — in 2007 at the latest (5) — below the threshold of 3 % of gross domestic product laid down in the Treaty.
Nasprotno pa je Svet 14. marca (5) sprejel odločbo, ki Nemčijo poziva, da v najkrajšem možnem času in najpozneje v letu 2007 svoj javnofinančni primanjkljaj zmanjša pod prag 3 % bruto domačega proizvoda, kot je določeno v Pogodbi.
On 10 October the Council issued for the third year running a recommendation to Hungary concerning the worsening of its budgetary de cit and the general deterioration of its public nances.
Svet je 10. oktobra že tretje zaporedno leto Madžarski poslal priporočilo zaradi povečanja njenega proračunskega primanjkljaja in splošnega poslabšanja njenih javnih financ.
On 28 November the Council noted the failure of Poland to take effective measures to reduce its de cit (6). In view of its

Quality and sustainability of public nances
Kakovost in vzdržnost javnih financ
At its spring session the European Council stressed the need for a number of Member States to undertake ambitious new reforms to improve the sustainability of their social security systems and to obviate the economic and budgetary consequences of the ageing of the population.
Evropski svet je na spomladanskem zasedanju poudaril potrebo nekaterih držav članic po pripravi novih ambicioznih reform, da bi izboljšale vzdržnost svojih sistemov socialne varnosti ter odpravile gospodarske in proračunske posledice staranja prebivalstva.
Invited by the European Council to undertake a comprehensive assessment of the sustainability of public nances in the Member States, the Commission presented a communication on this on 12 October (1): it points out that such an assessment must be based on long-term age-related government expenditure projections and on budgetary strategies presented in the stability and convergence programmes, and confirms that the three-pronged strategy decided by the Stockholm European Council in 2001 (reducing debt at a fast pace, raising employment rates and productivity, and reforming pension, healthcare and long-term care systems) is appropriate and needs to be pursued.
Hkrati je Evropski svet Komisijo pozval, naj izvede celostno oceno vzdržnosti javnih financ držav članic, zato je Komisija 12. oktobra v zvezi s tem predložila sporočilo (1): v njem poudarja, da takšna ocena temelji na dolgoročnih projekcijah javnih financ, povezanih s staranjem prebivalstva, ter na proračunskih strategijah, predstavljenih v programih stabilnosti in konvergenčnih programih; potrjuje, da je strategija, ki jo je odobril Evropski svet v Stockholmu leta 2001, s tremi težišči (hitro zmanjšanje dolga; zvišanje stopenj zaposlenosti in produktivnosti; reformiranje sistemov pokojninskega zavarovanja, zdravstvenega varstva in dolgotrajne oskrbe), ustrezna in jo je treba nadaljevati.
For its part, the Council commented on several occasions in the course of the year on the quality of public nances.
Svet je med letom večkrat izrazil mnenje o kakovosti javnih financ.
In its conclusions of 10 October, in stressing that budgetary rules vary considerably as between Member States, it highlighted a series of common characteristics that add to the effectiveness of national rules against a background of healthy public nances and compliance with the stability pact.
V sklepih z dne 10. oktobra je ob poudarku, da se proračunska pravila močno razlikujejo po državah članicah, opozoril na obstoj vrste skupnih značilnosti, ki prispevajo k večji učinkovitosti nacionalnih pravil v smislu zdravih javnih financ, ob upoštevanju Pakta stabilnosti in rasti.
On a general level, the Commission on 12 July adopted its annual statement on the euro area (2), along with the annual report on the euro area.
Komisija je 12. julija sprejela splošno sporočilo z naslovom „Letna izjava o območju eura“ (2), skupaj z letnim poročilom o območju eura.
These annual reports highlight the common political challenges facing euro area members as a result of their growing economic interdependence as a result of EMU.
To letno poročilo poudarja skupne politične izzive, s katerimi se soočajo članice območja zaradi naraščajoče gospodarske soodvisnosti, ki je posledica vzpostavitve ekonomske in monetarne unije (EMU).
As regards the Member States outside the euro area, on 5 December the Commission presented a convergence report (3
Za države, ki niso članice območja eura, je Komisija 5. decembra predložila konvergenčno poročilo (3), katerega namen je pomagati nekaterim od teh držav, da izpolnijo zahteve za uvedbo eura.
In a communication of 14 July the Commission presented various components of, and supporting activities for, an actions programme for the promotion of research and analysis of issues related to the European economic and monetary union (4
V sporočilu z dne 14. julija je Komisija poleg tega predstavila različne sestavine in podporne dejavnosti akcijskega programa za spodbujanje raziskav in analiz vprašanj, povezanih z Evropsko ekonomsko in monetarno unijo (4).
On the basis of a report from the European Central Bank and its own 2006 convergence
Svet je glede na petdeseto obletnico Rimskih pogodb, ki se bo praznovala 25. marca 2007, želel dati v obtok priložnostni kovanec za 2 EUR s skupnim motivom na nacionalni strani.

Kot je poudarilo pomembno sporočilo Komisije iz oktobra 2005 (6), sta obdavčenje in carinska unija pomembni področji, ki lahko Evropski uniji pomagata doseči lizbonske cilje.
This link with the revised Lisbon strategy was highlighted in 2006 by the proposal drawn up by the Commission for a decision of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing the Fiscalis 2013 programme (7).
Ta povezava s prenovljeno lizbonsko strategijo je bila zlasti poudarjena leta 2006 v predlogu odločbe Evropskega parlamenta in Sveta, ki ga je Komisija 17. maja predložila za vzpostavitev programa „Fiscalis 2013“ (7).
The programme aims to improve the operation of taxation systems in the Member States by continuing to develop cooperation between tax administrations in areas such as the common application of Community tax legislation and the smooth functioning of the internal market through the combating of tax avoidance and evasion.
Namen tega programa je izboljšati delovanje sistemov obdavčitve držav članic za nadaljnji razvoj sodelovanja med davčnimi upravami na področjih, kot so skupna uporaba davčne zakonodaje Skupnosti ali nemoteno delovanje notranjega trga z bojem proti davčnim utajam in izogibanju plačevanja davkov.

Combating tax evasion or scal fraud was the subject of a Commission communication
Boj proti davčnim goljufijam je bil tudi tema sporočila, ki ga je Komisija sprejela 31. maja (1).
The Council welcomed the initiative in its conclusions of 7 June.
Svet je to pobudo sprejel z odobravanjem v svojih sklepih z dne 7. junija.
Strong emphasis was placed on the link between direct taxation and implementation of the Lisbon strategy in a Commission communication of 5 April, which reports on progress to date on a common consolidated corporate tax base (next steps towards a CCCTB) (2).
V zvezi z neposrednim obdavčenjem je bila povezava z izvajanjem lizbonske strategije zlasti poudarjena v sporočilu Komisije z dne 5. aprila, ki obravnava napredek k skupni konsolidirani davčni osnovi za pravne osebe (prihodnji program „CCCTB“) (2).
It also draws attention to those areas where further political support and direction is desirable, without seeking commitments from Member States to the legislative proposal.
Sporočilo prav tako namenja pozornost tistim področjem, na katerih je potrebna nadaljnja politična podpora in usmeritev, brez prizadevanj, da bi se države članice zavezale k zakonodajnemu predlogu.
The European Economic and Social Committee had, at its February session, delivered an explanatory opinion on the creation of such a common tax base (3), followed, at its May session, by an opinion on tackling the corporation tax obstacles of small and medium-sized enterprises in the internal market (4
Za oblikovanje takšne skupne davčne osnove je Evropski ekonomsko-socialni odbor na svojem zasedanju februarja (3) predhodno dal raziskovalno mnenje.
On 22 November the Commission adopted a communication concerning a more

Komisija je 22. novembra sprejela sporočilo, ki priporoča boljšo uporabo davčnih spodbud za raziskave in razvoj (5) s pravnimi omejitvami za te vrste ukrepov ter predstavitvijo splošnih načel za usmerjanje držav članic pri njihovi zasnovi in izvajanju.
On 4 December the Commission proposed a recast of Directive 69/335/EEC concerning taxes on the raising of capital (6).
Komisija je 4. decembra (6) predlagala preoblikovanje Direktive 69/335/EGS o davkih na zbiranje kapitala.
The purpose of the proposal is to simplify a very complicated piece of Community legislation, phase out capital duty, which is recognised as a significant obstacle to the development of European Union companies, and reinforce the prohibition on creating or levying of other similar taxes.
Cilj predloga je poenostaviti zelo zapleten del zakonodajnega besedila Skupnosti, postopno odpraviti dajatev na kapital, ki velja za precejšnjo oviro pri razvoju družb v Evropski uniji, in zaostriti prepoved uvajanja ali obračunavanja drugih podobnih davkov.
On 19 December the Commission adopted a communication announcing a series of initiatives intended to improve the coordination of Member States’ direct tax systems (7).
Komisija je 19. decembra sprejela sporočilo, ki najavlja številne pobude za spodbujanje boljše usklajenosti davčnih sistemov držav članic v zvezi z neposrednim obdavčenjem (7).
The aim is to ensure that national direct tax systems are compatible with Community rules and that they operate coherently among themselves.
Cilj je zagotoviti usklajenost nacionalnih sistemov neposrednega obdavčenja z zakonodajo Skupnosti in njihovo medsebojno usklajeno delovanje.
These initiatives are intended to eliminate the discrimination and double taxation suffered by taxpayers, whether individuals or businesses, while avoiding tax evasion and the erosion of the tax base.
Namen teh pobud je odpraviti diskriminacijo in dvojno obdavčenje davčnih zavezancev, tako fizičnih oseb kot podjetij, s preprečevanjem izogibanja davku in zniževanja davčnih osnov.
8) and the two areas in which a coordinated approach would be possible: exit taxation ( tax treatment of losses in crossborder situations (9
Istega dne je Komisija sprejela dve sporočili o prvih dveh primerih, pri katerih bi bil mogoč takšen usklajen pristop: izhodni davek (8) in davčna obravnava čezmejnih izgub (9).
As regards transfer pricing, in November the joint transfer pricing forum adopted a report on procedures to resolve disputes in this area.
V zvezi s transfernimi cenami je Skupni forum za transferno oblikovanje cen novembra sprejel svoje poročilo o postopkih za reševanje in preprečevanje sporov na tem področju.
On the basis of that report, the Commission is drafting a communication setting out guidelines for advanced pricing agreements in Europe.
Na tej podlagi je Komisija pripravila sporočilo, ki vključuje smernice za predhodne dogovore ocenah v Evropi.
It was also decided that the forum would be reappointed for another term.
Sklenjeno je bilo tudi, da se Forumu podaljša delovanje še za en mandat.
