The Estonian Competition Board Employs 42 Civil Servants, Including 13 Lawyers C 28 E/112 Official Journal of the European Union EN 6.2.2003 The Estonian Competition Board employs 42 civil servants, including 13 lawyers. A comparison with Member States is not relevant in view of the present legal framework: Under the rules for the implementation of Article 63(1)(i), (1)(ii) and (2) of the Europe Agreement establishing an association between the Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Estonia, of the other part, it is explicitly stated that cases falling under Article 63(1) and (2) of the Europe Agreement are dealt with by the Commission on the Community side and the Competition Board on the Estonian side. Inside the Community, on the other hand, Member States do not at present have a legal obligation to have national competition authorities (although most of them have found it useful to establish such an authority). (1) COM(2001) 700 final. (2003/C 28 E/126) WRITTEN QUESTION E-1493/02 by Stavros Xarchakos (PPE-DE) to the Commission (29 May 2002) Subject: Biological sewage treatment plants in Greece The Commission recently took the decision to bring proceedings against Greece in the Court of Justice for its failure to observe the final deadline for setting up a third-generation sewage treatment plant in the region of Elefsina. The final deadline expired in 1998(!). The proceedings could also involve a further 11 areas in the vicinity of sensitive ecosystems which have not observed Community directives or binding dates. More precisely, according to reports in the Greek press, since 1998 tertiary treatment plants should have been completed in 16 Greek towns with populations of over 10 000 in sensitive areas. However, the number of towns which complied with the directive was only four (!), while the Greek authorities justify themselves by saying that the degree of compliance in 1998 was equally low in other Member States … At the present time, four years later, 12 tertiary biological treatment plants have been completed in Greece in areas in the close vicinity of sensitive outfall points (such as the Gulf of Arta, the Lefkada straits, etc.), while the other four plants, at Thriasio, Grevena, Kilkis and Thiva, remain unfinished. In fact, the construction of the plant at Thriasio is still at the drawing-board stage! There are, however, also problems associated with the monitoring of the operation of the plants by the central administration or the local authorities which, according to a study carried out by Athens University, has left 30 % of the plants facing serious operational problems (e.g. inadequate maintenance, shortages of consumables, unrepresentative sampling etc.). According to the same study, in many instances, the sewage treatment plants were never operational, an example being Serifos where the plant was completed in 1994 with Community and national funding, but is not in operation because of mistakes in the planning of the project. Is the Commission familiar with this matter and what are its views thereon? Which of the above projects received funding and what were the exact amounts? Is it possible that further action will be taken against Greece in the Court of Justice for the other delays in building biological sewage treatment plants which should have been completed since 1998, as referred to above? If so, which projects by name? Does the Commission intend to intercede with the Greek authorities and in what manner to persuade them to put an end to these enormous delays in building biological sewage treatment plants and the failure of the local authorities to monitor and check on their operation? Answer given by Mr Barnier on behalf of the Commission (22 July 2002) The Commission is following the implementation process of Council Directive 91/271/EEC of 21 May 1991 concerning urban waste-water treatment (1) in all the Member States, including Greece. In this context, the Commission has already initiated three individual infringement procedures against Greece for failure to comply with this Directive. These infringements concern the municipalities of Athens, Elefsina and Thessaloniki. Further investigations, with the view to assessing that the provisions and the deadlines are implemented, are underway. The Commission will not hesitate to take all the necessary measures, including action under Article 226 of the EC Treaty, in order to ensure that Community legislation is correctly applied. 6.2.2003 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 28 E/113 As far as Structural and Cohesion Funds are concerned, the Commission has requested the Greek authorities to provide the information about the individual projects that have been funded and the exact amounts involved. This will be forwarded to the Honourable Member upon receipt. Furthermore, the Commission has conducted review meetings in recent months to assess in partnership with the Greek authorities the scale of the task remaining to be done, in an effort to ensure that the most urgent investment requirements are undertaken as soon as possible in order to improve compliance with the relevant Community legislation. As is foreseen in the Community support framework for the current programming period 2000-2006, the Greek authorities are establishing a technical support entity to give guidance where necessary to municipal authorities in particular, for the proper design of sewage treatment plants, and support for their maintenance and operation after completion. This should help to avoid the problems in the maintenance and operation of previously completed sewage treatment plants of the kind referred to by the Honourable Member. The decision of the Greek government to establish bodies (DEYAs) with the appropriate competence and financial capacity is also a positive step which should improve efficiency in the building and operation of sewage treatment plants.

(2003/C 28 E/127) WRITTEN QUESTION E-1506/02 by Alexandros Alavanos (GUE/NGL) to the Commission (29 May 2002) Subject: Production of vinegar from dried grapes From ancient times vinegar has been made in Greece from sun-dried grapes (mainly the Corinthian variety); in the Greek Food Code it is described as ‘genuine vinegar’ and is exported very successfully throughout the world. In the regulation on wine, (EC) No 1493/1999 (1), in spite of the fact that there is a reference to wine vinegar, there is no clear stipulation that vinegar made from dried grapes is wine vinegar, although the regulation states that dried grape alcohol is equivalent to vinous alcohol. Since the production of vinegar from dried grapes is an activity which supports producers, particularly those from an especially backward and poor region such as the Peloponnese, can the Commission say whether it will make the requisite amendments to Regulation No 1493/99, in order to clearly stipulate that vinegar from sun-dried grapes is wine vinegar, as is in fact the case, and to bring it into line with dried grape alcohol? (1) OJ L 179, 14.7.1999, p. 1. Answer given by Mr Fischler on behalf of the Commission (4 July 2002) Dried grape alcohol is not defined in Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 on common organisation of the market in wine but is treated as a like product to wine alcohol when used in production of liqueur wine as defined in the Annex to that Regulation. But Council Regulation (EEC) No 1576/89 of 29 May 1989 laying down general rules on the definition, description and presentation of spirit drinks (1) defines wine spirit and raisin spirit quite differently (Article 1(4)(d) and (h)). A distinction must also be drawn in the case of vinegar. Annex I to Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/ 1999 defines wine vinegar as vinegar … obtained exclusively by acetous fermentation of wine..

  • The Statistical Battle for the Population of Greek Macedonia
    XII. The Statistical Battle for the Population of Greek Macedonia by Iakovos D. Michailidis Most of the reports on Greece published by international organisations in the early 1990s spoke of the existence of 200,000 “Macedonians” in the northern part of the country. This “reasonable number”, in the words of the Greek section of the Minority Rights Group, heightened the confusion regarding the Macedonian Question and fuelled insecurity in Greece’s northern provinces.1 This in itself would be of minor importance if the authors of these reports had not insisted on citing statistics from the turn of the century to prove their points: mustering historical ethnological arguments inevitably strengthened the force of their own case and excited the interest of the historians. Tak- ing these reports as its starting-point, this present study will attempt an historical retrospective of the historiography of the early years of the century and a scientific tour d’horizon of the statistics – Greek, Slav and Western European – of that period, and thus endeavour to assess the accuracy of the arguments drawn from them. For Greece, the first three decades of the 20th century were a long period of tur- moil and change. Greek Macedonia at the end of the 1920s presented a totally different picture to that of the immediate post-Liberation period, just after the Balkan Wars. This was due on the one hand to the profound economic and social changes that followed its incorporation into Greece and on the other to the continual and extensive population shifts that marked that period. As has been noted, no fewer than 17 major population movements took place in Macedonia between 1913 and 1925.2 Of these, the most sig- nificant were the Greek-Bulgarian and the Greek-Turkish exchanges of population under the terms, respectively, of the 1919 Treaty of Neuilly and the 1923 Lausanne Convention.

  • ANASTASIOS GEORGOTAS “Archaeological Tourism in Greece
    UNIVERSITY OF THE PELOPONNESE ANASTASIOS GEORGOTAS (R.N. 1012201502004) DIPLOMA THESIS: “Archaeological tourism in Greece: an analysis of quantitative data, determining factors and prospects” SUPERVISING COMMITTEE: - Assoc. Prof. Nikos Zacharias - Dr. Aphrodite Kamara EXAMINATION COMMITTEE: - Assoc. Prof. Nikolaos Zacharias - Dr. Aphrodite Kamara - Dr. Nikolaos Platis ΚΑΛΑΜΑΤΑ, MARCH 2017 Abstract . For many decades now, Greece has invested a lot in tourism which can undoubtedly be considered the country’s most valuable asset and “heavy industry”. The country is gifted with a rich and diverse history, represented by a variety of cultural heritage sites which create an ideal setting for this particular type of tourism. Moreover, the variations in Greece’s landscape, cultural tradition and agricultural activity favor the development and promotion of most types of alternative types of tourism, such as agro-tourism, religious, sports and medicinal tourism. However, according to quantitative data from the Hellenic Statistical Authority, despite the large number of visitors recorded in state-run cultural heritage sites every year, the distribution pattern of visitors presents large variations per prefecture. A careful examination of this data shows that tourist flows tend to concentrate in certain prefectures, while others enjoy little to no visitor preference. The main factors behind this phenomenon include the number and importance of cultural heritage sites and the state of local and national infrastructure, which determines the accessibility of sites. An effective analysis of these deficiencies is vital in order to determine solutions in order to encourage the flow of visitors to the more “neglected” areas. The present thesis attempts an in-depth analysis of cultural tourism in Greece and the factors affecting it.

  • Aiani—Historical and Geographical Context
    CHAPTER 5 AIANI—HISTORICAL AND GEOGRAPHICAL CONTEXT G. Karamitrou-Mentessidi Aiani—Elimiotis—Upper Macedonia According to the foundation myth preserved by Stephanos of Byzantium, “Aiani, a Macedonian city, was built by Aianos, a son of Elymos the Tyr- rhenian king, who migrated to Macedonia, ‘Aianaios’ was the ethnikon.” A reference to the city of Aiani was found by the French academic L. Heuzey in 1861 in two inscriptions in churches in the village of Kalliani (whose name may derive from “kali Aiani,” meaning “fair Aiani,”: in 1926 it was renamed Aiani). They led to various theories about the site of the settle- ment and its urban organization. The problem was not solved until offfijicial excavations began. Even if an urban settlement by the name of Elimeia did also exist, Aiani became the capital of Elimiotis at a very early date. The district of Elimeia or Elimiotis, bordering Orestis and Eordaea to the north, occupied the southern part of Upper Macedonia on both sides of the middle reach of the River Haliacmon, although its exact territorial extent is difffijicult to determine. During the Hellenistic era it appears to have included the region of Tymphaea to the west and, perhaps at an earlier date, the northern part of the Perrhaebian Tripolitis (Pythium, Azorus, and Doliche). Territorial disputes between Elimeia and its neigh- bours occurred, as can be seen in a Latin inscription found at Doliche, in which the emperor Trajan (101 ad) defijined the boundary between the Elimiotae and the inhabitants of Doliche by reviving an earlier ruling by King Amyntas III (393–369 bc) on the same issue.

  • Neotectonic Implications of the Grevena -Kozani Earthquake
    International Meeting on Results of the May 13, 1995 earthquake of West Macedonia: One Year After, Extended abstracts, p.76-80 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Neotectonic Implications of Grevena - Kozani Earthquake (May 13, 1995, W. Macedonia, Greece) E. L. Lekkas, I. G. Fountoulis, S. G. Lozios, Ch. D. Kranis MsC, & E. I. Adamopoulou (University of Athens, Department of Geology, Panepisimioupoli Zografou, 157 84, Athens, Greece) Introduction The Grevena - Kozani area was considered up to now as one of the most seismically inactive ar- eas in Greece (Papazachos 1990, Papazachos et al 1995). On May 13, 1995, an earthquake of Ms=6.6 occurred, which caused many damages in a part of Kozani city and in some villages lo- cated between the cities of Grevena and Kozani (Carydis et al 1995, Lekkas et al 1995). The damage has been limited to relatively small area in the form of a triangle extending between the Serbia fault zone to the south, and the Chromion - Varis fault zone to the north (Fig. 1). The western limit was the Aliakmon river. The severe damage is mainly located at the villages lying at the foot of Mt. Vourinos, and some others, as Rymnio and Chromio. However, there still is an “eclectic” distribution, with two groups of highly damaged villages, one at the north (Knidi, Varis, Chromio) and the other at the south (Paleohori, Sarakina, Kentro, Messolakos, Kalamitsi and Ka- lohi). The recent earthquake have also caused a series of concominant geodynamic phenomena, the most frequent of which was the occurrence of numerous, but subsidiary, ground fissures at the vil- lages of Knidi, Sarakina, Paleohori, Chromio, Agapi and elsewhere.
