    20.12.2001 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 364 E/145 Answer given by Mr Bolkestein on behalf of the Commission (26 July 2001) Acting on the complaint to which the Honourable Member refers, the Commission studied the relevant legislation and asked the French authorities for further information, following which they were sent a letter of formal notice. The French legislation categorically rules out discharge of withholding tax at the special rate (taux du prélèvement libératoire) where income is derived from investments or policies under Articles 125-0 and Article 125 A of the Code Général des Impôts (CGI) and the person liable is not resident or established in France. The Commission considers this to be incompatible with Articles 49 (ex 59) and 56 (ex 73B) of the EC Treaty. In the light of the French authorities’ reply to the letter the Commission will shortly decide whether to issue a reasoned opinion under Article 226 (ex 169) of the EC Treaty.

Canals, Spanish canals, particularly the Canal de Castilla. Spain is engraved with canals. Transport, (exchange of goods, displacement of people) and irrigation, (movernem or dispersion of water) are, separately or combined, the two main drivmg forces for the construction of canals. A variety of minor works and utopian projects were begun and promoted as early as the first part of the sixteenth century, a time during which Spain began its political consolidation undec the Catholic Kings. A few years later, between 1548 and 1550, during the reign of Maximillian of Austria interest in fluvial navigation in Spain became a renewed imperative. It is from this time, for instance, that the first Spanish extant drawing of a revolving lock: which closed with the aid of the current, comes to us•. But it is only in the mid- eighteenth century, during the reign of Ferdinand VI, that the first major navigable-irrigation waterworks, the Canal de Castilla and the Imperial Canal of Arag6n, were bwlL Both canals, among the most extraordinary hydraulic monuments of Spain, fonn part of the extensive series of public works including roads, dams, docks, bridges, silos, hospitals, schools and even bullfight rings, initiated and promoted during the Spanish Enlightenment (La Uustraci6n Espai'lola). They would play a more significant role during the nineteenth century.

A view of the city of Valladolid with the Pisuerga river II. Motivation/rationale for holding the IRS in Valladolid Scientific Interest In the last decades, Spain has experienced a great growth comparatively to other countries in Europe and in the world, not only in the social and political aspects but also in the scientific research. Certainly Spain has a medium position in the world but it potential increases day by day. The research in Atmospheric Sciences has not a long tradition in our country, but precisely, its atmospheric conditions and geographical location makes it one of the best places for atmospheric studies, in topics as radiation, aerosols, etc…. , being a special region in Europe to analyse the impact of climate change. Hosting the IRS’2016 for the first time in Spain would produce an extraordinary benefit for all the Spanish scientific community, and particularly for those groups working in the atmospheric, meteorological and optics research fields.

  • La Música Tradicional En Valladolid Y Su Papel Durante La Transición
    La música tradicional en Valladolid y su papel durante la Transición Folk music in Valladolid during the Spanish transition Antonio BELLIDO BLANCO Museo Fabio Nelli Resumen Los años de la transición estuvieron marcados por la reafirmación de la identidad de las dis- tintas regiones españolas. Las tierras vallisoletanas, dentro del contexto de lo que luego sería la Comunidad Autónoma de Castilla y León, no fueron ajenas a esta situación. Una de sus manifestaciones fue la exaltación de su música tradicional. A través de este trabajo analiza- remos la implicación que tuvieron, en este momento histórico, la mayoría de grupos folklóri- cos en la actividad de distintas formaciones políticas regionales. Palabras clave: Transición política; Música folkórica; Valladolid. Abstract During the transition’s years the reaffirmation of the identity were accentuated in the Spanish regions. The province of Valladolid, within the context of the former Autonomy of Castilla y León, wasn’t strange to this situation. One of its demonstrations was the folk music’s exalta- tion. In this study we look into the involvement of the most of folk music bands with the activi- ties of regional political parties in this historical time. Keywords: Political Transition; Folk Music; Valladolid. La música es una relevante manifestación cultural en todas las épocas y en to- dos los lugares. Se imbrica en las celebraciones religiosas y festivas, pero tam- bién en las labores cotidianas, así como en la vida pública y en la intimidad familiar. Su presencia constante ha sido, tal vez, lo que ha propiciado su estu- dio, por más que se centre por lo general en figuras concretas (compositores o intérpretes) o en lo que rodea a fiestas determinadas.

C/ Alameda del Obispo s/n. 14080 Córdoba (Spain) Received: July 15, 2009 Accepted: November 10, 2009 SUMMARY Spanish sunflower acreage is basically divided into three main and iso- lated areas, the Guadalquivir valley, southern Spain, represents 37% of the total acreage, the Cuenca area located in Spain´s central plateau, 28%, and the Castilla-León area, northern Spain, 29%. Sunflower broomrape (Orobanche cumana Wallr.) has been present in Spain since the 1960’s. From that time on, different waves of dissemination and dispersion of the parasite have been reg- istered. The latest correspond to the broomrape race E dispersal in the early 1990’s and race F dispersal in the first few years of this century. These broom- rape dissemination waves have been limited only to the Guadalquivir and Cuenca areas. In the Castilla-León area, the presence of broomrape had not been noticed until now. In 2008, a highly virulent broomrape infection focal point (about 300 m2) was detected in a sunflower plot near Medina del Campo (Valladolid), south of the center of the Castilla-León area.
