Question for Written Answer Question for written answer E-001583/2020 to the Commission Rule 138 Gianna Gancia, Lucia Vuolo, Anna Bonfrisco, Elena Lizzi, Francesca Donato, Marco Campomenosi, Fulvio Martusciello, Viktor Uspaskich, Elżbieta Kruk, Julie Lechanteux, Antoni Comín i Oliveres, Clara Ponsatí Obiols, Aurelia Beigneux, Virginie Joron Subject: Violence against women on the rise in Pakistan Pakistan is ranked by the Global Gender Gap Index 2018 as the sixth most dangerous country in the world for women and the second worst in the world (ranked 148th) in terms of gender equality. The number of recorded cases of sexual crimes and domestic violence is rapidly rising. Although Pakistani society discourages reporting, the NGO White Ribbon Pakistan reports that 47 034 women faced sexual violence, over 15 000 cases of honour crimes were registered, and more than 1 800 cases of domestic violence and over 5 500 kidnappings of women took place between 2004 and 2016. According to media reports, more than 51 241 cases of violence against women were reported between January 2011 and June 2017. Conviction rates, meanwhile, remain low, with the accused in just 2.5 % of all reported cases ultimately being convicted by the courts. Given this systemic problem, the failure to protect women, and the concerns highlighted in the recent GSP+ country assessment, what discussions are being held on the issue during bilateral talks between the EU and Pakistan? Pakistan is a recipient of GSP+ and has ratified the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women. However, in the light of the alarming statistics on discrimination and violence against women, will the Commission review Pakistan’s GSP+ status?

The activities of the EU legislator do not, in fact, take into account all cases in which sexual abuse is directly consumed online, i.e. where child pornography is provided by the child following the establishment of a relationship of trust between predator and victim. Furthermore, uncontrolled use of the internet can facilitate access to content that is not suitable for children, such as websites that glorify practices relating to anorexia and bulimia, including websites that incite suicide and self-harm. In view of this: 1. Will the Commission collect and study data on online paedophilia in order to promote a child- friendly use of the Web? 2.

Thierry Breton, the Internal Market Commissioner, held a videoconference with the heads of Europe’s telecommunications companies and the GSMA (Global System for Mobile Communications) to explore options for sharing geolocation metadata in order to map and forecast the spread of the virus. The Commission claims that such a move would be fully in line with the General Data Protection Regulation and e-privacy legislation. How does the Commission intend to guarantee EU citizens full anonymisation of their personal data? How exactly does the Commission envisage using such data? Not content with surveillance and quarantine enforcement, Israel and a number of Asian countries have adopted a proactive AI-based approach that alerts individuals if they have been in contact with a virus carrier. How do the Commission’s plans compare, and what logistical support will it provide the Member States which opt for this approach? PE650.848v01-00.

  • A Look at the New European Parliament Page 1 INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMITTEE (INTA)
    THE NEW EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT KEY COMMITTEE COMPOSITION 31 JULY 2019 INTRODUCTION After several marathon sessions, the European Council agreed on the line-up for the EU “top jobs” on 2 July 2019. The deal, which notably saw German Defence Minister Ursula von der Leyen (CDU, EPP) surprisingly designated as the next European Commission (EC) President, meant that the European Parliament (EP) could proceed with the election of its own leadership on 3 July. The EPP and Renew Europe (formerly ALDE) groups, in line with the agreement, did not present candidates for the EP President. As such, the vote pitted the S&D’s David-Maria Sassoli (IT) against two former Spitzenkandidaten – Ska Keller (DE) of the Greens and Jan Zahradil (CZ) of the ACRE/ECR, alongside placeholder candidate Sira Rego (ES) of GUE. Sassoli was elected President for the first half of the 2019 – 2024 mandate, while the EPP (presumably EPP Spitzenkandidat Manfred Weber) would take the reins from January 2022. The vote was largely seen as a formality and a demonstration of the three largest Groups’ capacity to govern. However, Zahradil received almost 100 votes (more than the total votes of the ECR group), and Keller received almost twice as many votes as there are Greens/EFA MEPs. This forced a second round in which Sassoli was narrowly elected with just 11 more than the necessary simple majority. Close to 12% of MEPs did not cast a ballot. MEPs also elected 14 Vice-Presidents (VPs): Mairead McGuinness (EPP, IE), Pedro Silva Pereira (S&D, PT), Rainer Wieland (EPP, DE), Katarina Barley (S&D, DE), Othmar Karas (EPP, AT), Ewa Kopacz (EPP, PL), Klara Dobrev (S&D, HU), Dita Charanzová (RE, CZ), Nicola Beer (RE, DE), Lívia Járóka (EPP, HU) and Heidi Hautala (Greens/EFA, FI) were elected in the first ballot, while Marcel Kolaja (Greens/EFA, CZ), Dimitrios Papadimoulis (GUE/NGL, EL) and Fabio Massimo Castaldo (NI, IT) needed the second round.

Questa data ricorda il giorno del 1950 in cui vi fu la presentazione da parte di Robert Schuman del piano di cooperazione economica, ideato da Jean Monnet ed esposto nella Dichiarazione Schuman, che segna l'inizio del processo d'integrazione europea con l'obiettivo di una futura unione federale. Bilancio elabora il bilancio dell’Unione europea, insieme al Consiglio; approva il bilancio di lungo periodo dell’UE, il "quadro finanziario pluriennale". Composizione Il numero di eurodeputati per ogni paese è approssimativamente proporzionale alla popolazione di ciascuno di essi, secondo i criteri della proporzionalità degressiva: un paese non può avere meno di 6 o più di 96 eurodeputati e il numero totale non può superare i 751 (750 più il presidente). I gruppi parlamentari sono organizzati in base allo schieramento politico, non in base alla nazionalità. Il presidente rappresenta il Parlamento europeo nei confronti delle altre istituzioni dell'UE e del mondo esterno e dà l'approvazione finale al bilancio dell'UE. Come funziona il Parlamento europeo? Il lavoro del Parlamento europeo si articola in due fasi principali: Il Parlamento europeo è l'organo legislativo dell'UE che è eletto direttamente dai commissioni - preparano la legislazione. cittadini dell'Unione ogni cinque anni. Le ultime elezioni si sono svolte nel maggio Il Parlamento europeo conta 20 commissioni e due sottocommissioni, 2014.

  • Question for Written Answer
    Question for written answer E-005578/2020 to the Council Rule 138 Julie Lechanteux (ID), Virginie Joron (ID), André Rougé (ID), Jean-Lin Lacapelle (ID), Maximilian Krah (ID), Gilles Lebreton (ID), Gunnar Beck (ID), Herve Juvin (ID), France Jamet (ID) Subject: Navalny case: additional sanctions against Russia On 7 October 2020, the German and French Ministers for Foreign Affairs announced their intention of proposing additional sanctions against Russia to their European partners, stating that 'there is no other plausible explanation' than Russia being responsible for the incident involving the politician Alexei Navalny1, which he himself has described as an attempted poisoning. This explanation harks back to the famous 'highly likely’ statement made in 2018 by the then British Prime Minister, Theresa May. Apparently, the two ministers did not need to wait for the findings of a judicial investigation to assign responsibility (naming defendants), establish guilt (delivering a verdict) and impose sanctions (handing down sentences), in a case that is still far from being definitively solved. Does the Council not take the view that such a decision violates Articles 48 and 51 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, which state that 'everyone who has been charged shall be presumed innocent until proved guilty according to law’ and that 'the provisions of this Charter are addressed to the institutions and bodies of the Union with due regard for the principle of subsidiarity and to the Member States only when they are implementing Union law'?

  • Le Parlement Européen (2019-2024)
    Le Parlement européen (2019-2024) Le parlement européen est composé de députés européens qui sont au nombre de 705 (L’un des sièges espagnol reste vacant à ce jour). A cela il faut ajouter 32 membres de la Commission et 32 membres du Conseil. Le parlement européen comprend donc au total 769 membres. Les députés européens sont élus au suffrage universel direct pour exercer un mandat de 5 ans renouvelable, en réalité nous avons 28 délégations de députés européens et le nombre de députés par pays est proportionnel à la population du pays (plus il y a d’habitants, plus l’Etat compte de députés). Le minimum de députés est fixé à 6 pour les Etats les moins peuplés (Malte, Estonie…). Depuis 1979, les députés européens sont élus au suffrage universel direct par les citoyens de chaque Etat membre. Le Parlement européen constitue le deuxième plus grand espace démocratique au monde (après l’Inde et avant les USA). FONCTIONS : Le Parlement européen exerce les fonctions classiques d’un parlement national, c’est un lieu de débat. Les députés européens évoquent les sujets d’intérêt européen, ils peuvent adopter des motions, des décisions sur n’importe quel sujet concernant l’Europe. La deuxième fonction du Parlement européen est de voter le budget annuel de 160 milliards d’euros avec le Conseil de l’Union européenne (très faible car à titre de comparaison, le budget annuel américain réservé uniquement à la défense est de 300 milliards). La troisième fonction du Parlement européen est de voter la législation européenne avec le Conseil toujours, il a le droit d’amendement, d’opposition et même le droit d’initiative.
