071 Letter to EP MP اﻷﻣم اﻟﻣﺗﺣدة UNITED NATIONS United Nations Support Mission In Libya ﺑﻌﺛﺔ اﻷﻣم اﻟﻣﺗﺣدة ﻟﻠدﻋم ﻓﻲ ﻟﯾﺑﯾﺎ UNSMIL/OSRSG/2015/071 5 May 2015 Distinguished Members of the European Parliament, I would like to thank you for your letter dated 16 April 2015 and for your words of support to the United Nations facilitated dialogue process. I am equally concerned at the ongoing migration crisis in the Mediterranean, which is claiming the lives of vulnerable people escaping war, poverty and persecution. I also share your view that the current situation of chaos and instability in Libya is contributing to this phenomenon and that it is essential to use the opportunity of the ongoing Libyan dialogue process to highlight this issue and contribute to its resolution. I would like to inform you that the current draft agreement, which is under consideration by the parties, includes specific language on human trafficking and irregular migration, and that I regularly highlight with our Libyan interlocutors the responsibility of Libyan institutions and political actors in combatting human trafficking and reducing the loss of life on Libya's borders. Once again I would like to reassure you of the United Nations and my own personal commitment to do our utmost to help Libya tackle the problem of human trafficking and illegal migration in full respect of international law. Yours sincerely, Bernardino Leon Gross Special Representative of the Secretary-General Head of the United Nations Support Mission in Libya Honorable Members of the European Parliament (See enclosed list) European Parliament Brussels Belgium اﻷﻣم اﻟﻣﺗﺣدة UNITED NATIONS United Nations Support Mission In Libya ﺑﻌﺛﺔ اﻷﻣم اﻟﻣﺗﺣدة ﻟﻠدﻋم ﻓﻲ ﻟﯾﺑﯾﺎ UNSMIL/OSRSG/2015/071 Her Excellency Mrs. Miriam Dalli Her Excellency Mrs.Hilde Vautmans Her Excellency Mrs. Tanja Fajon His Excellency Mr. Mark Demesmaeker Her Excellency Mrs. Biljana Borzan Her Excellency Mrs. Anneliese Dodds His Excellency Mr. Ivo Vajgl Her Excellency Mrs. Mercedes Bresso His Excellency Mr. Seb Dance Her Excellency Mrs. Michela Giuffrida His Excellency Mr. Juan Carlos Girauta His Excellency Mr. Javier Lopez Her Excellency Mrs Izaskun Bilbao Barandica His Excellency Mr. Peter Niedermuller Her Excellency Mrs. Christine Revaut d'Allonnes Bonnefoy Her Excellency Mrs. Maria Arena His Excellency Mr. Pavel Telička His Excellency Mr. Ivo Belet His Excellency Mr. Ivan Jakovcic His Excellency Mr Knut Fleckenstein His Excellency Mr. Andrea Cozzolino His Excellency Mr.Georgi Pirinski Her Excellency Mrs. Olga Sehnalová Her Excellency Mrs. Elena Valenciano Her Excellency Mrs.Marlene Mizzi Her Excellency Mrs.Clare Moody His Excellency Mr. Alfred Sant His Excellency Mr. Pier Antonio Panzeri His Excellency Mr. Kyrkos Miltos His Excellency Mr Renato Soru Her Excellency Gesine Meissner His Excellency Mr Ilhan Kyuchyuk Her Excellency Mrs.Eva Khaili His Excellency Mr. Jutta Steinruck Her Excellency Mrs.Kathleen Van Brempt Her Excellency Mrs.Angelika Mlinar His Excellency Mrs. Marju Lauristin Her Excellency Mrs.Mary Honeyball Her Excellency Mrs. Elena Gentile His Excellency Mr. Igor Šoltes Her Excellency Mrs.Kateřina Konečná Her Excellency Mrs.Catherine Bearder .

The committee raised concerns that across the EU, persons with disabilities still live in institutions rather than in their local communities, while one of the main purposes of the CRPD, envisaged in Articles 1 and 19, is to guarantee all persons with disabilities the right to live independently. The committee noted that the European Structural and Investment Funds continue to be used in Member States to maintain residential institutions or to invest in new residential settings that remain institutional in their way of functioning. The committee recommended that the EU stop allowing such investments to continue and instead invest ambitiously in the deinstitutionalisation process. In the light of the above: 1. What concrete steps has the Commission taken to suspend, withdraw or recover payments used for the expansion or redevelopment of institutional care? 2.

  • Dear President of the European Parliament, Dear President of The
    Dear President of the European Parliament, Dear President of the European Council, Dear President of the European Commission and Dear President of the French Republic, We all have a responsibility for the shared future of Europe. In this time of crisis, it is high time to re-evaluate some of the rules we have upheld till now and focus on the most important aspects of the European project, which will help us move forward. An unprecedented health crisis is currently affecting millions of people in Europe and tragically taking thousands of lives. However, this is not the end. The economic crisis will crush the hopes and dreams of generations of Europeans. We sincerely hope that we will all do whatever is in our power not to leave anyone behind. We firmly believe that the European Parliament needs to take on its responsibility and share the burden since it is the highest European directly elected body. We need to be part of the solution, not part of the problem. If we want the people to have confidence and trust in the European project, we need to show them that we are also ready to make concessions. Therefore, we would like to ask you to do everything in your power to change the treaties in order to have just a single seat of the Parliament in Brussels. This call has again gained a large majority of support in the 2018 Parliament discharge resolution adopted on 13 May 2020 and shall now be taken into account and acted upon. The financial and environmental costs of moving the Parliament are, especially in these times of digitally connected Europe, extremely high and hard to justify.

  • Brussels, 14 April 2020 Dear Ms Elżbieta Witek, Marshal of the Sejm
    Brussels, 14 April 2020 Dear Ms Elżbieta Witek, Marshal of the Sejm of the Republic of Poland, Dear Members of the Polish Parliament, Dear Colleagues, As Members of the European Parliament, we are writing to express our deep concern regarding the Parliamentary Document no 39 on amending the act of June 6, 1997 - the Penal Code - known as the “Stop paedophilia” bill - and Parliamentary Document No 36 on the amendment to the Act of 7 January 1993 on family planning, protection of the human fetus and conditions for the termination of pregnancy -known as “Stop Abortion” bill - that will be debated in a first reading in the Sejm of the Republic of Poland in your sitting of the 15-16 April 2020. We are convinced that measures that roll back protections for women’s human rights and self- determination are of grave concern as they undermine a core European Union value, that of advancing gender equality. Under human rights law measures that undermine or restrict exist- ing rights are not permitted and these draft bills violate Poland’s obligation to ensure ever greater protection of human rights. We are deeply concerned that the “Stop Abortion” bill provide for the prohibition of termina- tion of pregnancy due to severe or fatal foetal anomalies, currently a legal ground for abortion in Poland. Poland’s Act of 1993 on Family Planning, Protection of Human Fetus and the Con- ditions of Legal Pregnancy Termination is one of the most restrictive laws on abortion in the European Union. The bill would in effect result in a near total denial of access to legal abortion in Poland as most legal abortions are performed under this ground.

There are 41 candidates contesting these elections. Our questionnaire reached 36 of them. 16 replied and 7 accepted our invitation to meet with us. Given that every candidate had an equal opportunity to show his/her interest in matters which are of utmost importance to us, FACTS is advising its members to completely ignore those MEPs who ignored our call. Consequently, we are only considering the 16 candidates who responded and/or came to meet us. Should any of the other candidates choose to reply, we shall update our data and inform our community accordingly. If you know any of the candidates who have not responded please feel free to bring the matter to their urgent attention. We are presenting the results in a factual way along with notes drawn from what the candidates stated and/or have achieved in matters which are relevant to our sport and passion. The object of this exercise is to identify candidates who stand a chance of being elected and who would be in the best position to represent our interests in Brussels. Naturally, our position should be considered in the light of our community members’ political beliefs and personal preferences based on matters of national importance.
