European Parliament: 7Th February 2017 Redistribution of Political Balance
POLICY PAPER European issues n°420 European Parliament: 7th February 2017 redistribution of political balance Charles de Marcilly François Frigot At the mid-term of the 8th legislature, the European Parliament, in office since the elections of May 2014, is implementing a traditional “distribution” of posts of responsibility. Article 19 of the internal regulation stipulates that the Chairs of the parliamentary committees, the Deputy-Chairs, as well as the questeurs, hold their mandates for a renewable 2 and a-half year period. Moreover, internal elections within the political groups have supported their Chairs, whilst we note that there has been some slight rebalancing in terms of the coordinators’ posts. Although Italian citizens draw specific attention with the two main candidates in the battle for the top post, we should note other appointments if we are to understand the careful balance between nationalities, political groups and individual experience of the European members of Parliament. A TUMULTUOUS PRESIDENTIAL provide collective impetus to potential hesitations on the part of the Member States. In spite of the victory of the European People’s Party (EPP) in the European elections, it supported Martin As a result the election of the new President of Schulz in July 2104 who stood for a second mandate as Parliament was a lively[1] affair: the EPP candidate – President of the Parliament. In all, with the support of the Antonio Tajani – and S&D Gianni Pittella were running Liberals (ADLE), Martin Schulz won 409 votes following neck and neck in the fourth round of the relative an agreement concluded by the “grand coalition” after majority of the votes cast[2]. -

Declaration Unfinished Justice: Restitution and Remembrance (Following European Conference on Restorative Justice Brussels, 26Th April 2017)
26th June 2017 Declaration Unfinished Justice: Restitution and Remembrance (Following European Conference on Restorative Justice Brussels, 26th April 2017) Preamble It is now more than seventy years after the Holocaust (Shoah) in which six million Jews – seventy-five percent of the Jewish population of Europe – were murdered. Only a small fraction of private and communal immovable and movable property illegitimately seized from Jewish victims has been returned or compensated to rightful owners, heirs, or to the Jewish people at large. Many Holocaust survivors live in poverty and without adequate social care, and their social welfare needs are expanding rapidly as they age. In light of the above We, members of the European Parliament, affirm the moral responsibility of European Union member states to advance Holocaust-era property restitution. We also declare our enduring commitment to the provision of adequate and immediate social welfare support for Holocaust survivors, the demarcation, protection and preservation of Jewish cemeteries, mass graves and other burial sites, the preservation of Jewish heritage sites, and the promotion of Holocaust education, research and remembrance. We recognize the commitment of the European Parliament to restitution of Holocaust-era assets as called for in previous resolutions of the Parliament and reaffirm past international principles and declarations that reflect a consensus for the restitution of Holocaust-era assets. Considering the urgency of the matter We call upon Member States of the European Union to reaffirm their commitment to resolve remaining issues on restitution and compensation of looted property, in accordance with the principles of the Terezin Declaration on Holocaust Era Assets and Related Issues, and to address the growing social welfare needs of Holocaust survivors. -

The Evens Art Prize was created precisely to engage with the world around us. Art cannot be reduced to a functionality – a social pacifier, or a political catalyst. And we know from the past that it can be dangerous to align it to a political agenda. But art has the power to be transformative – it shapes our perceptions, representations, and attitudes; it changes our vision of the world, thus it changes the world ! Ernest Van Buynder: The jury has acknowledged Eszter Salamon’s ambitious and uncompromising work that explores contemporary issues touching upon what has been forgotten, excluded and repressed in western consciousness. -

Aber Nationalismus ist keine Lösung für die aktuellen gesellschaftlichen Herausforderungen. Deswegen kämpfen Sozialdemokratinnen und Sozialdemokraten für Europa – ein starkes, faires und soziales Europa. Wir treten für ein starkes Europa ein, das solidarisch zusammensteht und Flagge zeigt für Frieden, Demokratie und Rechtsstaatlichkeit. Eine funktionierende EU, die für ihre Bürgerin- nen und Bürger arbeitet, in die Zukunft investiert und gute Arbeit und faire Regeln für alle schafft – das ist unser Ziel. Die EU ist eine Erfolgsgeschichte, die wir weiterdenken müssen. Herausforderungen wie der Klimawandel, globale Finanzkrisen oder die Digitalisierung von Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft lassen sich nur in der Zusammenarbeit der EU-Mitgliedsstaaten angehen. Wir Sozialdemokratinnen und Sozialdemokraten haben seit der Euro- pawahl 2014, trotz einer konservativen Mehrheit im Europäischen Parlament, sozialdemokratische Erfolge in der Europäischen Union errungen. -

Juni 2014 tagte in Brüssel der Beratende Ausschuss der Europäischen Kommission zu Obst und Gemüse. Wichtige Themenbereiche der Sitzung des Beratenden Ausschusses der EU-Kommission waren das Pflanzengesundheitspaket und die Reform der Gemeinsa- men Agrarpolitik einschließlich der Änderungen der Durchführungsverordnungen für den Bereich Obst und Gemüse. Zum Pflanzengesundheitspaket diskutierten die Mitglieder des Beratenden Ausschusses, insbesondere aber die Vertreter von COPA/COGECA im Bera- tenden Ausschuss mit der DG Sanco der Europäischen Kommission, über den Fortgang der Regelungen im Pflanzengesundheitspaket bei den Einfuhren. Die erste Runde im Europäi- schen Rat wird wohl noch vor der Sommerpause abgeschlossen werden können. Das Par- lament hatte in der letzten Amtsperiode noch die erste Runde abgeschlossen. Mit einem Trilog, also der Verständigung zwischen Rat und Parlament, ist voraussichtlich für Ende des Jahres 2014 zu rechnen.
