B. whereas the infringement of basic human rights has led to violent disturbances and demonstrations in which human lives have been lost and which have caused well over 300 000 refugees to cross the border to Turkey,

C. noting with indignation the flagrant violation of the fundamental principles of human rights on the part of the Bulgarian'authorities, in total disregard for the closing docu­ ment of Vienna and the document on cooperation in the humanitarian and other fields,

D. noting that the Turkish authorities have felt obliged to reimpose from 22 August 1989 the visa requirement for Bulgarian citizens which had been waived since 30 May,

1. Reminds the Bulgarian authorities of the obligations deriving from current international treaties and agreements and those laid down under the CSCE process in relation to protec­ tion of human rights and the treatment of minorities;

RESOLUTION

on the protection of the waters, marine fauna and forests in the Mediterranean area

The European Parliament, A. whereas the process of eutrophication of the Adriatic, which has been in progress for some time, reached a dramatic climax in July this year as a result of the accumulation of No C 256/122 Official Journal of the European Communities 9. 10. 89

Thursday, 14 September 1989

nutrient substances and pollutants and climatic conditions which accentuate this pro­ cess, causing, owing to a lack of oxygen, an ecological disaster which has meant the death of the Adriatic and its fauna and flora, with incalculable repercussions on fisheries and tourism,

B. whereas an ecological disaster of this nature cannot be viewed as peculiar to a single country, not only because it physically affects other countries and indeed the Mediterra­ nean as a whole, but also because eutrophication is beginning to manifest itself in other European seas and lakes,

C. believing that the causes of this disaster are diverse and complex and involve a wide range of powerful interests, especially the system of farming practised throughout Europe and encouraged by the Community's agricultural policies and based on an absurd abuse of pesticides and chemical fertilizers and zootechnics based on large-scale industrial stockbreeding,

D. believing that the disaster was also caused by inadequate, ill-managed and inefficient domestic waste disposal plants, the failure to control or limit industrial waste in accord­ ance with the quality of the watercourse into which it is discharged, and the lack of pro­ per regulations on phosphate substitution in detergents,

E. recalling that on 17/18 May 1988 the Italian regions of Piedmont, Lombardy, Emilia- Romagna and Veneto explained the problem of the 'Adriatic and Paduan environmental system' to the Community institutions but that since that date the European Community has taken no appropriate initiatives,

F. pointing out that the life of the Mediterranean is also threatened by the massive prolifer­ ation of pelagic driftnet fishing, which is used particularly to catch swordfish,

G. whereas every year in Italian seas alone, this fishing technique causes the accidental death of several thousands of dolphins and hundreds of large cetaceans of various spe­ cies, including sperm whales,

H. aware that swordfish fishermen make constant use of the emergency radio frequency for their communications, causing congestion and consequent inconvenience and danger to shipping,

I. concerned that if appropriate and urgent measures are not taken, it is highly likely that the cetacean populations of our seas will be on the brink of extinction by the year 2000,

J. whereas the areas destroyed by fire this year in Italy, Greece, Spain, Portugal and France, and also Corsica and Sardinia, are estimated at over 400 000 hectares,

K. whereas, in addition to the ecological disaster involved, forest fires increasingly consti­ tute an economic disaster, to which must also be added the severe loss of human life,

L. whereas the great majority of fires are due to human agency and are caused by a few small fires getting out of control because of unfavourable meteorological conditions,

M. whereas, despite the efforts made by many Member States in the field of forest fire fight­ ing, the number of fires that break out and areas destroyed continues to increase,

N. noting that on 29 June 1989 the Community adopted a forestry action programme (Doc. COM(88) 255 final), 9. 10.89 Official Journal of the European Communities No C 256/123

Thursday, 14 September 1989

O. noting that Council Regulation 3529/86 (') contains a specific provision on forest fires,

P. believing that protection of the Mediterranean forest necessitates the introduction of a comprehensive prevention policy,

Q. whereas forest fires have been recorded during the summer period at numerous points along the Mediterranean coastline,

R. whereas much recent research shows that present standards are well below the levels required to guarantee public health,

S. whereas this problem reaches beyond the Mediterranean and concerns all the countries of Europe;

1. Calls on the Commission and the Council to treat this ecological disaster as a matter of priority under the environment policy and to take all possible action with the utmost urgency, to assist in coping with its effects;

2. Calls also for an urgent investigation to be launched into the causes of this phenome­ non, during which use should also be made of experience gathered and more advanced research carried out outside the Community in order to determine the most suitable means of fully identifying the causes of the phenomenon, preventing its recurrence and providing remedies, with a view to holding an international conference on the Mediterranean;

3. Calls upon the Commission to promote surveys and studies, with the assistance of the relevant committees, in order to establish reliable estimates of the Mediterranean stocks of the individual species fished and of accidental catches resulting from all fishing activities, with particular reference to the swordfish;

4. Requests the Commission to report to the European Parliament on the outcome of these studies and surveys in order to enable it to assess the current stocks of protected fish species (dolphins) whose survival is currently threatened by driftnet fishing;

5. Asks that, for this purpose, driftnet fishing should be prohibited, as a preventive mea­ sure, in all the member countries of the Community in the Mediterranean area, pending the outcome of the studies referred to above;

6. Requests that, for this purpose, the Commission should promote initiatives with third countries in the Mediterranean area with a view to concluding agreements which are consist­ ent with the objectives of safeguarding protected species;

7. Request the Commission to provide incentives for alternatives to driftnet fishing proven to be selective, by setting up an appropriate Community fund to encourage the productive conversion of fishing activity;

8. Calls on the Commission to:

(a) draw up an inventory of the causes of the fires and assess the future potential of the areas burnt; (b) assess the costs and requirements for setting up a comprehensive fire prevention policy based on: — support for forestry; — regional planning as a passive means of protection against fire;

9. Further calls on the Commission to: (a) carry out a check on the utilization of funds allocated for this purpose hitherto;

(b) launch an information and public awareness campaign aimed at tourists and emphasis­ ing the vulnerability of the Mediterranean forests to fire;

(c) propose harmonization of legislation involving a ban on construction in areas destroyed by fire, as already exists in certain Member States;

(d) to investigate the possibility of the European countries' pooling their prevention resources;

10. Calls on the Commission to carry out a study of the bacteriological contamination of water, adjusting the relevant standards in line with the latest scientific knowledge;

11. Calls on the Commission, in the meantime and in the absence of better standards, to ensure strict compliance with current standards by the various Community countries;

12. Calls upon the Commission and the Council to undertake to ensure that sufficient appropriations are entered in the budget lines relating to environmental protection to enable the above objectives to be attained;

13. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Commission, the Council and the governments of the Member States and of the non-member countries in the Mediterra­ nean area.

on the effects of the plague of caterpillars in France

The European Parliament,

A. having regard to the exceptional increase in the number of caterpillars of the Cirphis Unipuncta species, some of which have come from Spain, and which have led to severe defoliation in the mountains and plains on the whole of the French side of the Pyrenees since the beginning of August 1989,

B. whereas this plague is having an extremely damaging effect on livestock farming in the region, where most farmers have already had to start using their stocks of winter fodder or to buy in feedingstuffs,

C. whereas this scourge has mainly affected fodder crops and maize,

D. whereas most of the areas of livestock farming affected are also among the least- favoured in the Community,

E. whereas the effects of this phenomenon have been exacerbated considerably by the sev­ ere drought in the region since June,

F. whereas the damage incurred as a result of the devastation of crops by these caterpillars is not covered by the arrangements for dealing with agricultural disasters and farmers have had to bear the high costs of treating the affected areas (including the costs of heli­ copter spraying of insecticide),

G. whereas in the regions affected by this disaster, mountain and hill farming provides a guarantee of an attractive environment in areas with great potential for tourism, 9. 10. 89 Official Journal of the European Communities No C 256/125

I. whereas the activities of property development companies are targeted at potential pur­ chasers, often with the aim of inducing them through hard-sell techniques to part with large cash payments by way of deposit on the purchase of real property interests,

J. whereas consumers contemplating the purchase of property in a foreign country are at a disadvantage in such a situation and have a legitimate expectation that their financial interests should be protected by the Community, particularly where they are called upon to sign contracts in a foreign language,

K. aware that Article 222 of the EEC Treaty precludes the Community from proposing any measures likely to prejudice the rules in the Member States governing the system of pro­ perty ownership,

1. REGRETS:

— the frequent cases of fraud and malpractice perpetrated against property buyers from another Member State, often by their compatriots, and the inability of certain Member States' judicial systems to deal adequately with such cases;

— the excessive commission rates and high pressure techniques often associated with pro­ perty sales;

— the failure of planning laws and the inability of local authorities in certain Member States to accommodate coastal development, to the detriment of the environment as well as property owners;

— the increasing use of offshore tax havens for real property or timeshare operations in Member States to avoid tax;

— the failure of Member States' civil servants when convoked by the European Commis­ sion, to work together to eradicate property problems;

2. CALLS on the Commission, which is preparing a study entitled 'Transborder Property Purchase: the Home Buyer and 1992', to prepare a Directive with minimum provisions cov­ ering consumer rights within property transactions to include:

— a cooling-off period such as that provided for in Directive 85/577/EEC (contracts nego­ tiated away from business premises) under which a purchaser may be entitled to rescind a contract within 7 days of signature and obtain repayment in full of all monies paid to the vendor or his agent;

— provisions covering unfair contract terms and misleading advertising;

— an obligation on vendors to hold purchasers' money in a separate or trust account;

— adequate protection against developers' bankruptcy and against building or title defects;

— the requirement that advertisements for speculative developments or unbuilt property in another Member State should advise potential purchasers to seek professional advice;

— the provision that, when deposits are accepted against an 'option contract', these should state that the final contract is 'subject to clear title and free of encumbrances';

1. Welcomes the progress made hitherto towards the completion of the single market and notes with deep satisfaction that the anticipated positive effects of the single market on growth and the employment situation are already beginning to be seen;

2. Expects now, however, that specific measures will at long last be taken to ensure that young people are better integrated into working life and that the training of the long-term unemployed is improved, so that they, too, may benefit from the positive effects of the inter­ nal market on the employment situation;

3. Points to the serious social and regional disparities within the Community and hopes that greater efforts will be made to reduce those disparities;

4. Looks not only for an inventory of this situation to be made but also far a specific pro­ gramme in the form of a White Paper for the achievement of social and economic cohesion;

5. Supports the efforts of the European Council to introduce the mutual recognition of professional and vocational qualifications and calls, therefore, on the Commission, the Council and the social partners to enshrine the results of their deliberations in legislation so as to guarantee freedom of choice as to the type and place of work;

6. Cannot be content with a solemn declaration of the Council concerning the fundamen­ tal social rights of workers and calls, therefore, despite all the problems involved, for the embodiment of fundamental social rights in Community law as rights that may be tested in the courts and for the progressive approximation of social security schemes at the highest level;

7. Calls for the rights of workers to consultation, participation and co-determination to be regulated generally and not just in the Statute for the European Company;

8. Is aware that a European area of interdependent employment networks can only be created through an extension and intensification of the social dialogue;

9. Welcomes the Commission's efforts, therefore, to strengthen the social dialogue and expects that the social partners will exploit to the full all the possibilities offered to them under Article 118 b of the EEC Treaty;

10. Recognizes from the numerous rulings handed down by the Court of Justice that the free movement and mobility of workers are still restricted; expects, therefore, that the Com­ mission will submit specific proposals for the abolition of such barriers;

11. Attaches great importance to the training and further training of workers, given that economic structures are changing at an ever-increasing rate, and expects the Commission to submit practical proposals in this area;

12. Recalls that social peace is disturbed not only by the emphasis on the economic dimen­ sion of the internal market but also by the unsolved problems regarding immigrants from third countries;

13. Affirms, therefore, its support for the principle of the right of establishment and the right of asylum and calls for the harmonization of legislation governing asylum at Com­ munity level, in accordance with its resolution of 12 March 1987 (');

on the achievement of economic and social cohesion

The European Parliament,

A. whereas the European Councils in Rhodes and Madrid failed to take the necessary mea­ sures to ensure genuine economic and social cohesion in the Community and put an end to the subordination of the social policy of harmonization with progress,

B. whereas, on the contrary, the measures decided on at the above European Councils con­ cerning the free movement of capital, as well as the prospect of the total abolition of capital taxation, are likely to jeopardize the social rights which have been gained in the Member States of the Community and to undermine the promotion of those social rights,

C. whereas the first stages of implementation of the first directives aimed at completion of the internal market have already had unfavourable results, leading to the intensification of regional and social inequalities and to increasing pressure on working conditions and labour market conditions,

1. calls on the Commission to draw up a programme of specific measures, with a definite timetable, with a view to compensating for the delay which has already occurred, ensuring the implementation of the principle of economic and social cohesion and, with this end in view, taking full advantage of the short time remaining until 1 January 1993;

2. Calls on the Commission, in this context, to draw up new fiscal and financial proposals with a view to combating unemployment and the growth of casual labour, as an essential condition for any economic and social policy for the Community;

3. Calls on the Commission to draw up, as a matter of urgency, specific measures of finan­ cial and other support, with a view to combating the growing intensification of national and regional inequalities and creating the conditions for genuine economic cohesion;

4. Calls for genuine cooperation with all trade union organizations at Community level with a view to ensuring that workers are enabled significantly to influence EEC decisions;

5. Expresses the view that, on the basis of workers' proposals, the project for a Charter of Social Rights should be made binding, in order to guarantee progress with equality;

6. Calls on the Commission and the Council, in this spirit, to accept the amendments already adopted by Parliament and endorsed by the trade unions to the directives concern­ ing health and safety in the workplace, which will guarantee that workers' rights are harmon­ ized in a progressive direction;

7. Urges the European Council to give priority to these matters at its next meeting in Stras­ bourg, and to propose practical measures to this end;

1. Reaffirms its total support for the objectives defined in the Single Act, in particular the completion of the internal market and the strengthening of economic and social cohesion which is expected to result therefrom, and undertakes to cooperate with the other institutions in pursuit of this goal;

2. Stresses that, in order to attain these two complementary objectives, it is essential that Member States reach an overall political compromise at the earliest opportunity on certain issues which cannot be implemented too hastily, such as tax harmonization, which is needed in order to liberalize the movements of goods, capital and services and remove obstacles hampering the free movement of citizens;

3. Draws the attention of the Council and the Commission to the danger that the deadline of 1 January 1993 established following the signature of the Single Act will lose credibility if the current failure to clarify issues in these key sectors persists, which may jeopardize the efforts made over the last few years to achieve economic and political integration;

4. Reiterates its determination to ensure that the goal of strengthening economic and social cohesion is considered to be as important as and parallel to the goal of achieving the large internal market; recalls paragraphs 25-30 of its resolution of 18 January 1989 on the econo­ mic and social cohesion of the Community ('), particularly the requirement on rigorous monitoring of the extent to which cohesion is strengthened;

on economic and social cohesion

The European Parliament,

A. convinced that the completion of the large internal market, a key stage in the process of European integration, must be simultaneously and indissociably linked with the estabishment of a genuinely social Europe,

B. noting the delays in the establishment of a social Europe and the legal and political obstacles to it, and whereas the rise in unemployment, the increase in the number of unsecured jobs, and the attacks on union rights are undermining European conscious­ ness and go a long way towards explaining why the process of European integration does not inspire public opinion to a sufficient degree, as demonstrated by the low turnout in European elections,

C. having regard to the social objectives which flow from the various treaties establishing the Community, in particular:

— the achievement of full employment on the best possible terms,

— the improvement of the living and working conditions of the population in general and the least favoured groups in particular,

— the involvement of the two sides of industry in framing economic and social policy,

— equality between men and women,

D. anxious to respond to workers' concerns and expectations as voiced by their trade union organizations in the Community which are no longer satisfied with solemn declarations but wish to see rapid, practical steps taken towards the establishment of a Europe based on full employment and social progress.

1. Reiterates that the implementation of a thoroughgoing and wider-ranging social policy is an essential prerequisite for the completion of the internal market;

2. Warns that the lack of significant progress in the sphere of the social dimension will have serious consequences for future cooperation between the European Parliament and the other Community institutions with regard to certain matters to be dealt with under the Single Act;

3. Calls on the Commission in future — as decided by Parliament — to submit all its legis­ lative proposals on employment, notably the directives on the duration, organization and content of work, on the basis of Article 118A of the Treaty, which stipulates that the Council shall act by a qualified majority; No C 256/134 Official Journal of the European Communities 9. 10. 89

4. Calls, in accordance with a strict timetable to be put forward by the Commission by the end of 1989, for the legally binding enactment of basic social rights in accordance with its resolution of 15 March 1989 (•) on the social dimension of the internal market;

5. Looks to a future government conference called to amend the Single Act to simplify tar­ geted and legally binding Community action not only in the sphere of economic and mone­ tary union but also in the social sphere by introducing majority voting in the Council on all social matters;

6. Urges that a legal and procedural Community framework be developed to foster social dialogue and collective bargaining resulting in binding undertakings at European, sectoral and national level and in individual firms;

7. Calls for the implementation of an active labour market policy to include: — ongoing forecasts of employment trends and the creation of a labour market monitoring unit; — vocational training and retraining programmes; — measures to ease the transition between school and work; — a special policy to reintegrate the long-term unemployed into the labour market; — programmes to assist particularly underprivileged categories;

8. Draws attention to the fact that although the establishment of economic and monetary union is likely to boost growth and create new jobs, it will lead to restructuring which will give rise to additional employment problems at sectoral and regional level;

9. Calls on the Commission to draw up proposals for the next four years through which increased use can be made of EC finance instruments in combating unemployment (employ­ ment fund); 10. Calls for the swift adoption of directives and regulations which are pending, notably: — the framework directive on the incorporation in social legislation and individual direc­ tives of all forms of work, in particular part-time work, temporary and fixed-term con­ tracts, work at home and hired labour, — the European company statute, — the directive on parental leave; 11. Calls for the forthcoming intergovernmental conference to concern itself not merely with economic and monetary union but also with social rights and workers' rights on the basis of majority voting by the Member States;

12. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Commission and Council.

RESOLUTION

on economic and social cohesion

The European Parliament, A. having regard to the conclusions of the Madrid European Council of 26-27 June 1989, 9. 10. 89 Official Journal of the European Communities No C 256/135

Thursday, 14 September 1989

B. having regard to the urgent need to bring about the social dimension of the internal mar­ ket in time for completion of the market proper,

C. concerned that further delays in the social, economic and political integration process may block progress towards the 1992 target date,

1. Repeats the views expressed and the proposals contained in its resolution of 15 March 1989 on the social dimension of the internal market (');

2. Urges the next European Council, which is to meet in December in Strasbourg, to state its position on that resolution and take clear decisions with a view to:

(i) ensuring that the Community Charter of Fundamental Social Rights is given actual legal force;

(ii) combating unemployment effectively, if need be by adopting exceptional measures; (iii) making up the serious delay in bringing about the social dimension of the internal mar­ ket by means of an action programme to be completed before the deadline of 31 Decem­ ber 1992;

(iv) laying down a global Community policy on immigration from third countries in order to regulate the situation and promote the integration of workers and their families;

3. Considers it essential to implement an agreement between the Commission and the European Parliament to govern the substance, the instruments, and the time-scale of Com­ munity social policy, making provision for the involvement of the national parliaments and employers' and workers' representatives and giving particular attention to: — the substance and implementation of the Community Charter of Fundamental Social Rights; — initiatives to fight unemployment; — the action programme on the social dimension of the internal market;

— equality between men and women;

— immigration policy; — measures to support1 collective bargaining and economic democracy;

— implementation of all the provisions of Article 118a of the EEC Treaty in accordance with the interpretation set out in the EP's resolution of 15 December 1988 (2);

— implementation of the directives on health and safety at work; — implementation of all the provisions of structural fund reform and of Articles 130a, 130b, 130c, 130d and 130e of the EEC Treaty on economic and social cohesion;

— the free movement of persons;

4. Instructs its Committee on Social Affairs, Employment and the Working Environment to take the initiatives most likely to encourage an agreement to that effect between the EP and the Commission and to secure the involvement of the national parliaments and employ­ ers' and workers' representatives;

5. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Commission, the Council and the Parliaments of the Member States.

RESOLUTION

on economic and social cohesion in the completion of the internal market

The European Parliament,

A. whereas the internal market will have major effects on the social and ecological spheres,

B. whereas ecological principles are a basic condition of economic and social policy,

C. whereas it has no say at all regarding the creation of the European Social Charter,

D. whereas it has no say at all regarding the harmonization of indirect taxation,

E. whereas moreover the content of the European Social Charter offers too little scope for a sound European social policy as there is no proposed directive regarding a minimum wage, nor is there a basic directive on the shorter working week,

F. whereas moreover there are no directives on the stocks at all on key ecological condi­ tions,

1. Believes that the adverse social and ecological effects of the internal market should be offset by means of an improved European Social Charter and directives on key ecological conditions;

2. Demands that European social policy and the directives on key ecological conditions should form part of the cooperation procedure between the Council and the European Par­ liament;

3. Proposes that the European Social Charter should be extended to include a directive on the minimum wage related to the average wage level of the country concerned and a basic directive on the shorter working week;

4. Demands that the Commission draw up at a very early date directives for strict basic ecological conditions, such as ecological taxes;

5. Demands that the harmonization of indirect taxation be finalized only after, and in con­ nection with, the above ecological directives;

6. Resolves to make its activities in respect of the completion of the internal market contin­ gent upon the improvement of the European Social Charter and the introduction of strict ecological directives, both of which should be integral parts of the completion of the internal market;

7. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the parliaments of the Member States, the European Trade Union Confederation, the European Environmental Bureau and the European Employers' Federation. 9. 10.89 Official Journal of the European Communities No C 256/137

The Western public creditors (governments and governmental agencies) agree, during a three-year period, to deposit a substantial part of their hard currency claims, say one- third, in a Counterpart Fund. The debt service payments (interest and principal due on the deposited claims) would be used to finance necessary imports of consumer goods and equipment for the restructuring of industry and agriculture.

The countervalue in Zloty of this import would be paid into a 'Fund for the Moderniza­ tion of Polish Enterprises' which would provide soft loans to Polish enterprises. It could also extend finance to certain privatization projects.

The Counterpart Fund should be managed jointly by the contributing Western creditors and the Polish authorities.

a) Debt-equity swaps should be made possible both as a means to reduce the debt service > burden and to encourage foreign direct investment, in particular in the form of joint ventures;

12. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission and Polish Government.
