  • Parliamentary Dimension Dutch EU Presidency
    Parliamentary dimension Dutch EU Presidency 1 January - 1 July 2016 Index parliamentary dimension dutch eu presidency Index Reflection During the first six months of 2016, it was the Netherlands' turn to assume the Presidency of Meeting of the 3 the Council of the European Union. Throughout this period the Dutch government was Chairpersons of COSAC responsible for efficiently guiding the Council negotiations. But the Dutch Presidency also had a 'parliamentary dimension' to it. This entailed that the Dutch House of Representatives and the Senate organised six conferences for fellow parliamentarians from EU member states. Stability, economic 5 coordination and governance The aim of these conferences was to encourage parliamentarians to work together towards a stronger parliamentary engagement in European decision-making. Particularly now that many important decisions are made at a European level, effective parliamentary scrutiny plays a Innovative & Inspiring 7 major role. And that is why it is essential that national parliaments and the European Parlia- ment join forces and work together. It was in this spirit that, during the six months of the Dutch Presidency, the House of Representatives and the Senate made it their goal to encourage cooperation between parliamentarians and so increase their joint effectiveness. Human trafficking in 8 the digital age This e-zine reflects on the parliamentary dimension of the Dutch EU Presidency and shows the highlights of the six interparliamentary conferences organised by the Dutch parliament on such themes as security and defence, economic and budgetary policy, energy and human trafficking. Energy, innovation and 11 circular economy It also features the special focuses that the Dutch parliament placed on the content and organisation of the meetings.

  • Call from Members of the Nizami Ganjavi International Centre to the United Nations Security Council to Support the UN Secretary
    Call from Members of the Nizami Ganjavi International Centre to the United Nations Security Council to Support the UN Secretary-General’s Urgent Call for an Immediate Global Ceasefire amid the COVID-19 Pandemic We are deeply alarmed that the United Nations Security Council has not been able to reach agreement on a draft resolution put before it on COVID-19. This draft resolution called for an end to hostilities worldwide so that there could be a full focus on fighting the Covid-19 pandemic. If passed it would have given powerful backing to the call made earlier by the Secretary-General. Yet, agreement could not be reached on the resolution in the Security Council because of its reference to “the urgent need to support…. all relevant entities of the United Nations system, including specialized health agencies” in the fight against the pandemic. The failure to reach agreement saddens us at this time when our world is in crisis. The Covid-19 pandemic has brought about immense human suffering and is having a devastating impact on economies and societies. It is exactly at times like this that the leadership of the Security Council is needed. It should not be silent in the face of the serious threat to global peace and security which Covid-19 represents. Global action and partnership are vital now to deal with the global pandemic and its aftermath. This is the time for the premier institution responsible for leading on global security to show strength, not weakness. We support UN Secretary-General António Guterres in his call for an immediate global ceasefire, in all corners of the world, amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • LETTER to G20, IMF, WORLD BANK, REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT BANKS and NATIONAL GOVERNMENTS
    LETTER TO G20, IMF, WORLD BANK, REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT BANKS and NATIONAL GOVERNMENTS We write to call for urgent action to address the global education emergency triggered by Covid-19. With over 1 billion children still out of school because of the lockdown, there is now a real and present danger that the public health crisis will create a COVID generation who lose out on schooling and whose opportunities are permanently damaged. While the more fortunate have had access to alternatives, the world’s poorest children have been locked out of learning, denied internet access, and with the loss of free school meals - once a lifeline for 300 million boys and girls – hunger has grown. An immediate concern, as we bring the lockdown to an end, is the fate of an estimated 30 million children who according to UNESCO may never return to school. For these, the world’s least advantaged children, education is often the only escape from poverty - a route that is in danger of closing. Many of these children are adolescent girls for whom being in school is the best defence against forced marriage and the best hope for a life of expanded opportunity. Many more are young children who risk being forced into exploitative and dangerous labour. And because education is linked to progress in virtually every area of human development – from child survival to maternal health, gender equality, job creation and inclusive economic growth – the education emergency will undermine the prospects for achieving all our 2030 Sustainable Development Goals and potentially set back progress on gender equity by years.

We welcome the Commission’s dual emphasis on building European excellence and trust in AI. Your efforts are crucial in ensuring that AI can support Europe’s economic recovery, green and digital transitions, and help Europeans, e.g. through improved healthcare. In anticipation of your forthcoming AI proposal please allow us to share our recommendations: ● A proportionate and risk-based EU approach can maximise the benefits of AI, while also mitigating risks. ● New legal requirements should focus on a narrowly defined set of so-called ‘high-risk’ AI applications. Determinations of what constitutes high-risk AI applications should focus on specific use cases rather than blanket technology categories and not conflict with planned or pending regulations that are already being developed to ensure safety and trustworthiness. CCIA Europe, Rue de la Loi 227, 1040 Brussels, Belgium. EU Transparency Register: 15987896534-82. www.ccianet.org ● We recognise the importance of having a robust system in place to ensure companies are held responsible for testing their products before they are introduced into the EU market.

    Page 1 of 3 Address delivered by Her Excellency, Marie-Louise Coleiro Preca, President of Malta, at the Parliament in Palermo, following the conferment of Honorary Membership to the Societa' Italiana di Storia della Medicina, 11 June 2018 Honourable Gianfranco Miccichè, President of the Sicilian Regional Assembly Honourable Members of the Sicilian Regional Assembly Distinguished guests Dear friends I feel truly honoured to be welcomed to the prestigious parliament of Palermo, which was once also historically, so connected to my country. I would like to show my deep appreciation to all of you for attending this memorable occasion. Be- ing a parliamentarian myself for many years, I know how much your time is precious, and hence, I really appreciate the time you are sparing to welcome me to your parliamentary chambers. I also feel a deep of sense of connection with all of you and all the people of Sicily. The Sicilians and the Maltese share the same sea, share the same climate, share the same challenges and share the same successes. This has been our story since our formation. Our history is interlinked. Our human stories have brought us many a time together. Above all, nature made us so near to each other, in a most geostrategic position in the midst of our Mediterranean Sea. Together we form this natural bridge that brings together two most important continents. Both of our countries played important roles in the history of the diverse civilisations and cultures which made the Mediterranean Sea such an enriched region in the world. At a time when unfortunately the world seems so uncertain, when many of us feel suspicious and wary of one another, we have a most important role to play.
