Wednesday 28 March 2007 4. Assignment conferred on a Member

The President announced that he had been notified by the Prime Minister of the Czech Republic of the decision that had been taken to appoint Jan Zahradil to represent the Prime Minister during consultations on the Berlin Declaration, and, more generally, in the context of the relaunch of the constitutional process during the German Presidency of the EU.

At its meeting of 19 and 20 March 2007, the JURI Committee, to which the matter had been referred under Rule 4(5), had concluded that the assignment was compatible with the letter and spirit of the Act concerning the election of representatives of the European Parliament by direct universal suffrage and that as a result it was not incompatible with the office of Member of the European Parliament. Jan Zahradil could therefore continue to carry out his mandate as an MEP.

Position of the European Parliament adopted at first reading on 29 Mars 2007 with a view to the adoption of Directive 2007/…/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on certain aspects of mediation in civil and commercial matters

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 61(c) and the second indent of Article 67(5) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (1),

Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (2),

(1) OJ C 286, 17.11.2005, p. 1. (2) Position of the European Parliament of 29 March 2007. C 27 E/130 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 Whereas:

(1) The Community has set itself the objective of maintaining and developing an area of freedom, security and justice, in which the free movement of persons is ensured. To that end, the Community is to adopt, inter alia, measures in the field of judicial cooperation in civil matters that are necessary for the proper functioning of the internal market.

(2) The principle of access to justice is fundamental and, with a view to securing better access to justice, the European Council meeting in Tampere on 15 and 16 October 1999 called for alternative, extrajudicial procedures to be created by the Member States.

(3) The Council adopted conclusions on alternative methods of settling disputes under civil and commercial law in 2000, stating that the establishment of basic principles in this area is an essential step towards enabling the appropriate development and operation of extrajudicial procedures for the settlement of disputes in civil and commercial matters so as to simplify and improve access to justice.

(4) The European Commission presented a Green Paper in 2002, taking stock of the existing situation as concerns alternative dispute resolution methods in Europe and initiating widespread consultations with Member States and interested parties on possible measures to promote the use of mediation.

(5) The objective of ensuring better access to justice, as part of the policy of the European Union to establish an area of freedom, security and justice should encompass access to judicial as well as extrajudicial dispute resolution methods. This Directive should contribute to the proper functioning of the internal market, in particular as concerns the provision and receipt of mediation services.

(6) This Directive also applies to consumer mediation. Therefore, it should take into account the particularities of consumer mediation. In particular, it should incorporate the principles set out in Commission Recommendation 2001/310/EC of 4 April 2001 on the principles for out-of-court bodies involved in the consensual resolution of consumer disputes (1).

(7) Mediation can provide a cost-efficient and quick extrajudicial resolution of disputes in civil and commercial matters through processes tailored to the needs of the parties. Agreements resulting from mediation are more likely to be enforced voluntarily and are more likely to preserve an amicable and sustainable relationship between the parties. These benefits become even more pronounced in situations displaying cross-border elements.

(8) Framework legislation, addressing key aspects of civil procedure in particular, is therefore necessary to promote the further use of mediation and to ensure that parties having recourse to mediation can rely on a predictable legal framework.

(9) Member States are encouraged to apply the provisions of this Directive also to internal cases, notably with a view to facilitating the proper functioning of the internal market. Moreover, the fact that the provisions of this Directive are expressed as being limited to cases having cross- border implications should not have the effect of limiting rules of national law that currently provide for the enforceability of agreements resulting from mediation, the confidentiality of mediation or the effect of mediation on limitation and prescription periods also in cases not covered by this Directive.

(1) OJ L 109, 19.4.2001, p. 56. 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/131

Thursday 29 March 2007 (10) This Directive should cover processes where two or more parties to a cross-border dispute are assisted by a mediator to reach an amicable agreement on the settlement of the dispute, but should exclude processes such as pre-contractual negotiations or processes of an adjudicatory nature such as arbitration, judicial conciliation schemes, ombudsman schemes, consumer complaint schemes, expert determination or processes administered by bodies issuing a formal recommendation, be it legally binding or not, as to the resolution of the dispute. Cases where a court refers parties to mediation or in which national law prescribes mediation should also be covered, although the principle remains that mediation is a voluntary process and national legislation making the use of mediation compulsory or subject to incentives or sanctions should not prevent parties from exercising their right of access to the judicial system. Furthermore, mediation conducted by a judge who is not responsible for any judicial proceedings relating to the matter or matters in dispute should also come within the scope of this Directive. Nevertheless, this Directive should not extend to attempts made by the court or judge seised to settle a dispute in the context of judicial proceedings concerning that dispute or to cases in which the court or judge seised requests assistance or advice from a competent person.

(11) Given the importance of confidentiality in the mediation process, a minimum degree of compatibility of civil procedural rules is necessary with regard to how the confidentiality of the mediation is protected in any subsequent civil and commercial, judicial or arbitration proceedings. The possibility for the court to draw the parties' attention to mediation should also be covered, while retaining the principle that mediation is a voluntary process. It is also necessary to provide for a minimum degree of compatibility of civil procedural rules with regard to the effect of mediation on limitation and prescription periods.

(12) Mediation should not be regarded as a poorer alternative to judicial proceedings in the sense that agreements resulting from mediation are dependent on the goodwill of the parties for their enforcement. It is therefore necessary to ensure that parties to a written agreement resulting from mediation may request that its content be made enforceable in so far as enforceability of such content is possible under the law of the Member State in which the request for enforcement is made. The content of such an agreement may be rendered enforceable in a judgment or decision or by an authentic act by a court or by another competent authority in accordance with the law of the Member State where the request is made.

(13) The content of an agreement resulting from mediation which is rendered enforceable in a Member State will be recognised and declared enforceable in the other Member States in accordance with applicable Community or national law, for example on the basis of Council Regulation (EC) No 44/2001 of 22 December 2000 on jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters (1) or Council Regulation (EC) No 2201/2003 of 27 November 2003 concerning jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of judgments in matrimonial matters and the matters of parental responsibility (2).

(14) Although this Directive covers mediation in family law matters, it extends only to the rights available to the parties under the law of the Member State in which mediation takes place. More- over, if the content of an agreement resulting from mediation in family matters is not enforceable in the Member State where it was concluded and where its enforcement is sought, this Directive does not enable the parties to circumvent the law of that Member State by having the agreement rendered enforceable in another Member State, given that Regulation (EC) No 2201/2003 specifically provides that such agreement must be enforceable in the Member State in which it was concluded.

(15) To ensure the necessary trust between the Member States in the respect of confidentiality, suspension of limitation periods, and recognition and enforcement of agreements resulting from mediation, effective quality control mechanisms must be put in place concerning the provision of mediation services and training of mediators.

(1) OJ L 12, 16.1.2001, p. 1. Regulation as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1791/2006 (OJ L 363, 20.12.2006, p. 1). (2) OJ L 338, 23.12.2003, p. 1. Regulation as amended by Regulation (EC) No 2116/2004 (OJ L 367, 14.12.2004, p. 1). C 27 E/132 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 (16) These mechanisms and measures, which should be defined by the Member States and may include having recourse to market-based solutions, should aim at preserving the flexibility of the mediation process and the private autonomy of the parties. The Commission should encourage self-regulatory measures at Community level. For their part, the Member States should encourage and promote the application of the European Code of Conduct for Mediators, which the Commission should publish in the C Series of the Official Journal of the European Union, while ensuring that the quality of mediation is guaranteed by the criteria listed and defined in Commission Recommendation 98/257/EC of 30 March 1998 on the principles applicable to the bodies responsible for out-of- court settlement of consumer disputes (1) and in Recommendation 2001/310/EC: impartiality, transparency, efficiency, fairness, representation, independence, adversarial procedure, legality and freedom. Likewise, in business-to-consumer mediation, the Member States should promote the application of the principles set out in Recommendation 2001/310/EC. Furthermore, the Member States should encourage the development of a system of certification of national bodies offering training courses in mediation.

(17) It is advisable that any mediators or organisation concerned by Recommendation 2001/310/EC respect its principles. In order to ensure the dissemination of information concerning these bodies, the Com- mission is setting up a database of out-of-court schemes that Member States consider as respecting the principles of the recommendation.

(18) This Directive respects the fundamental rights and observes the principles recognised in particular by the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. In particular, it seeks to ensure full respect for the right to a fair trial as recognised in Article 47 of the Charter.

(19) Since the objectives of this Directive cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States and can therefore, by reason of the scale of effects of the action, be better achieved at Community level, the Community may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Arti- cle 5 of the Treaty. In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Directive does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve those objectives.

(20) In accordance with Article 3 of the Protocol on the position of the United Kingdom and Ireland, annexed to the Treaty on European Union and the Treaty establishing the European Community, the United Kingdom and Ireland have notified their wish to take part in the adoption and application of this Directive.

(21) In accordance with Articles 1 and 2 of the Protocol on the position of Denmark annexed to the Treaty on European Union and the Treaty establishing the European Community, Denmark does not take part in the adoption of this Directive, and is therefore not bound by it or subject to its application,

HAVE ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

Article 1 Objective

Thursday 29 March 2007 Article 2

Scope

1. This Directive shall apply if, as at the date on which the parties agree to mediate, at least one of them is domiciled or habitually resident in a Member State other than the Member State of any other party.

2. Notwithstanding paragraph 1, Articles 6 and 7 shall apply in relation to judicial proceedings following a mediation if, as at the date on which the parties agree to mediate, the court that would be seised in the event of any subsequent judicial proceedings would be in a Member State other than a Member State in which at least one of the parties is domiciled or habitually resident.

3. For the purposes of paragraphs 1 and 2, the Member State in which a party is domiciled or habitually resident shall be determined in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 44/2001 or Regulation (EC) No 2201/2003.

Article 3

Definitions

For the purposes of this Directive the following definitions shall apply:

(a) ‘Mediation’ means a structured process of a voluntary nature, however named or referred to, where two or more parties to a dispute attempt themselves to reach an agreement on the settlement of their dispute with the assistance of a mediator. This process may be initiated by the parties or suggested or ordered by a court or prescribed by the law of a Member State, provided that the voluntary nature of mediation is respected. It includes mediation conducted by a judge who is not responsible for any judicial proceedings in that dispute. However, it does not include attempts made by the court or judge seised to settle a dispute within the course of judicial proceedings concerning that dispute.

(b) ‘Mediator’ means any third person who is appointed in circumstances giving rise to a reasonable expectation that the mediation will be conducted in a professional, impartial and competent way, regardless of the denomination or profession of that third person in the Member State concerned and of the way the third person has been appointed or requested to conduct the mediation.

Article 4

Quality of mediation

1. Member States shall, by any means which they consider to be appropriate, encourage the development of and adherence to voluntary codes of conduct by mediators and organisations providing mediation services as well as other effective quality-control mechanisms concerning the provision of mediation services.

2. Member States shall encourage the initial and further training of mediators in order to ensure that the conduct of mediation is fair, effective, impartial and competent in relation to the parties and that the procedures are suited to the circumstances of the dispute.

3. Member States shall encourage the development of a system of certification of national bodies offering training courses in mediation. C 27 E/134 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 Article 5

Referral to mediation

1. A court before which an action is brought may, when appropriate and having regard to all circumstances of the case, invite the parties to use mediation in order to settle the dispute. The court may also invite the parties to attend an information session on the use of mediation if such sessions are held and are easily available.

2. This Directive is without prejudice to national legislation making the use of mediation compulsory or subject to incentives or sanctions, whether before or after judicial proceedings have started, provided that such legislation does not prevent parties from exercising their right of access to the judicial system.

3. Mediation shall be a voluntary process.

Article 6

Enforcement of agreements resulting from mediation

1. Member States shall ensure that it is possible for the parties, or one of them with the explicit consent of the others, to request that the content of a written agreement resulting from mediation be made enforceable to the extent that enforceability of the content of the agreement is possible under and not contrary to the law of the Member State where the request is made.

2. The content of the agreement may be made enforceable in a judgment or a decision or by an authentic act by a court or other competent authority in accordance with the law of the Member State where the request is made.

3. Member States shall inform the Commission of the courts or other authorities that are competent to receive a request in accordance with paragraphs 1 and 2.

4. Nothing in this Article shall affect the rules applicable to the recognition and enforcement in another Member State of agreements resulting from mediation which have been made enforceable in accordance with paragraphs 1 and 2.

Article 7

Confidentiality of mediation

1. Given that mediation is intended to take place in a manner which respects confidentiality, Member States shall ensure that, unless the parties agree otherwise, neither mediators nor parties nor those involved in the administration of the mediation process are entitled or compelled to disclose to 3rd parties, or to give evidence in civil and commercial judicial proceedings or arbitration regarding information arising out of or in connection with a mediation except:

(a) for overriding considerations of public policy or other substantial reasons, in particular where necessary in order to ensure the protection of the best interests of children or to prevent harm to the physical or mental integrity of a person; or

(b) where disclosure is necessary in order to implement or enforce the agreement resulting from mediation.

2. Nothing in paragraph 1 shall preclude Member States from enacting stricter measures to protect the confidentiality of mediation. 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/135

Thursday 29 March 2007 Article 8 Suspension of limitation and prescription periods

1. In order to ensure that parties who choose mediation with a view to resolving a dispute are not prevented from subsequently initiating judicial proceedings in relation to that dispute by the expiry of periods of limitation or prescription, Member States shall ensure that any such period does not expire between:

(a) the date when the parties agree in writing, after the dispute has arisen, to have recourse to mediation or, in the absence of such written agreement, the date on which they attend the first mediation meeting, or the date on which an obligation to resort to mediation arises under national law; and

(b) the date of an agreement resulting from mediation, the date on which at least one of the parties informs the others in writing that mediation is terminated or, in the absence of such written notification, the date on which the mediator declares on his or her own initiative or at the request of at least one of the parties that mediation is terminated.

2. Paragraph 1 shall be without prejudice to provisions on periods of limitation or prescription in international agreements to which Member States are parties which are not compatible with this Article.

Article 9 Information for citizens

1. Member States shall ensure that information is available to citizens, in particular on Internet sites, on how to contact mediation providers and mediators.

2. Member States shall encourage legal practitioners to inform their clients about the possibility of mediation.

The Commission shall publish the European Code of Conduct for Mediators in the C Series of the Official Journal of the European Union as a notice without legal effects.

Article 11 Implementing provisions

By 1 September 2009, the Commission shall publish information on the competent courts and authorities communicated by the Member States pursuant to Article 6(3).

Article 12 Report

By … (*), the Commission shall submit to the European Parliament, the Council and the European Eco- nomic and Social Committee a report on the application of this Directive. If necessary, the report shall be accompanied by proposals to adapt this Directive. In particular, the report shall consider the impact of this Directive with regard to the development of mediation in both cross-border and internal cases. It shall further consider whether a proposal for an instrument for the further harmonisation of limitation and prescription periods is necessary to facilitate the proper functioning of the internal market.

Thursday 29 March 2007 Article 13 Transposition

1. By 1 September 2008, Member States shall bring into force the laws, regulations and administrative measures necessary to comply with this Directive, or, adopting all the precautions necessary to guarantee that the requirements laid down in this Directive are met, ensure that the parties to mediation introduce the requisite measures through voluntary agreements. Member States shall forthwith inform the Commis- sion of those measures.

2. When Member States adopt those provisions, they shall contain a reference to this Directive or be accompanied by such a reference on the occasion of their official publication. Member States shall determine how such reference is to be made.

Thursday 29 March 2007 Whereas:

(1) The safety of Community shipping and of citizens using it, and of operators providing shipping services, and the protection of the environment should be ensured at all times.

(2) In respect of international shipping, a comprehensive framework enhancing maritime safety and the protection of the environment with regard to pollution from ships has been set up through the adoption of a number of conventions for which the International Maritime Organization (IMO) is the depository.

(3) Under the provisions of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea 1982 (Unclos) and of the conventions for which the IMO is the depository, the States which are party to those instruments are responsible for promulgating laws and regulations and for taking all other steps which may be necessary to give those instruments full and complete effect so as to ensure that, from the point of view of the safety of life at sea and the protection of the marine environment, a ship is fit for the service for which it is intended and is manned with competent maritime personnel.

(4) All Member State representatives in the International Labour Organization (ILO) supported the adoption of the ILO Maritime Labour Convention (MLC), 2006, which consolidates the existing body of maritime labour instruments into a single instrument. That Convention also addresses flag State-related obligations and should be incorporated into this Directive once this Directive has entered into force.

(5) To ensure the effectiveness of the IMO Conventions in the Community, given that all Member States have to be party to the IMO Conventions and have to discharge the obligations laid down in those conventions with respect to the ships flying their flag, the mandatory provisions of those conventions should be incorporated into Community legislation.

(6) Those mandatory provisions have to be implemented together with the relevant Community legislation concerning the safety of ships and their crew, passengers and cargo, and the prevention of pollution from ships and seafarers' working time.

(7) A few Member States have not yet completed the process of becoming a contracting party to some of the IMO Conventions, such as the 1988 SOLAS and Load Line Protocols, Marpol Annexes IV and VI, or to specific IMO Conventions explicitly quoted in Community legislation, and should be encouraged to finalise this process.

(8) Under Directive 2007/…/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of … on common rules and standards for ship inspection and survey organisations and for the relevant activities of maritime administrations (1), Member States have to act in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Annex and the Appendix to IMO Resolution A.847(20) on guidelines to assist flag States in the implementation of IMO instruments in order to ensure that their competent administrations are able to ensure the appropriate enforcement of the provisions of the international conventions, in particular with regard to the inspection and survey of ships and the issue of statutory certificates and exemption certificates.

(9) IMO Resolution A.847(20) has been revoked by IMO Resolution A.973(24) on the Code for the implementation of mandatory IMO instruments, which contains the mandatory provisions to be implemented by flag States.

(10) Member States have to discharge their obligations as flag States effectively and consistently in accordance with the IMO Conventions and taking account of IMO Resolution A.973(24).

(1)OJL … C 27 E/142 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 (11) The IMO Conventions give flag States the right to exempt ships from the application of basic flag State rules laid down in the IMO Conventions and to apply equivalent provisions and have left an important number of requirements to the discretion of administrations. Without prejudice to the fact that specific measures need to be implemented with a degree of flexibility, leaving this possibility to the sole and entire discretion of the individual administration could result in different levels of safety being achieved in different Member States and might possibly distort competition between flag States.

(12) The Community has committed itself to initiating harmonised interpretations of technical safety standards with regard to passenger ships engaged on international voyages in Article 12 of Council Directive 98/18/EC of 17 March 1998 on safety rules and standards for passenger ships (1). The same approach should be followed, if necessary, adopting appropriate solutions on a case-by-case basis and acting at the request of the parties concerned, and without prejudice to the adoption of harmonised interpretations by the IMO, with regard to similar provisions related to other types of ships to which the IMO Conventions apply.

(13) The maritime administrations of the Member States should be able to rely on appropriate resources for the implementation of their flag State obligations, which are commensurate with the size and nature of their fleet and based upon the relevant IMO requirements.

(14) Minimum criteria related to those resources should be established on the basis of the practical experience of Member States.

(15) Mandatory implementation of the procedures recommended by the IMO in MSC/Circ.1140/ MEPC/Circ.424 of 20 December 2004 on the transfer of ships between States should strengthen the provisions relating to a change of flag in the IMO Conventions and in Community maritime safety legislation and should increase transparency in the relationship between flag States in the interests of maritime safety.

(16) Member States should apply harmonised requirements for certification and survey by the flag State to the ships flying their flag as laid down in the relevant procedures and guidelines annexed to IMO Resolution A.948(23) on survey guidelines under the harmonised system of survey and certification.

(17) Strict and thorough monitoring of the recognised organisations performing flag State duties on behalf of Member States commensurate with the size and nature of Member States' fleets should improve the overall performance of ships flying the flag of a Member State.

(18) The fulfilment of minimum criteria by flag State surveyors should ensure a level playing field between maritime administrations and contribute to the performance of ships flying the flag of a Member State.

(19) Member States have an obligation as flag States with regard to the investigation of casualties and incidents involving their ships.

(20) Specific rules to be followed by the Member States for the investigation of accidents in the maritime transport sector are laid down in Directive 2007/…/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of … establishing the fundamental principles governing the investigation of accidents in the maritime transport sector and amending Directives 1999/35/EC and 2002/59/EC (2).

(21) Mandatory implementation of the IMO principles of safe manning should contribute to the performance of ships flying the flag of a Member State.

(1) OJ L 144, 15.5.1998, p. 1. Directive as last amended by Commission Directive 2003/75/EC (OJ L 190, 30.7.2003, p. 6). (2) OJ L … 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/143

Thursday 29 March 2007 (22) The development of a database providing essential information on ships flying the flag of a Member State, as well as on ships which have left a register of a Member State, should improve the transparency of performance of a high quality fleet and contribute to better monitoring of flag State obligations and to ensuring a level playing field between maritime administrations.

(23) An evaluation and review of the performance of flag States and, where necessary, corrective measures, should ensure that all Member States appear on the white list of the Paris Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on Port State Control.

(24) The Member States have committed themselves to demonstrating their compliance with the mandatory IMO instruments, as requested by IMO Resolution A.974(24) on the framework and procedures for the Voluntary IMO Member State Audit Scheme of 1 December 2005.

(25) The Voluntary IMO Member State Audit Scheme follows the standard quality management approach, which includes principles, criteria, audit areas, audit process and procedures which are suitable for determining to what extent Member States are implementing and enforcing the flag State obligations and responsibilities contained in the mandatory IMO conventions to which they are parties. This auditing process could therefore be introduced into Community maritime safety law.

(26) A quality certification of administrative procedures in accordance with ISO or equivalent standards should further ensure a level playing field between maritime administrations.

(27) To ensure a level playing field between shipowners operating ships under the flag of a Member State and those operating ships under other flags, synergies should be established between flag States which commit themselves to implementing in a mandatory way the Code for the implementation of mandatory IMO instruments adopted by the IMO in Resolution A.973(24) of 1 December 2005 and which agree to be audited in accordance with the provisions of IMO Resolution A.974(24).

(28) The establishment of a Flag State Memorandum of understanding under the conditions referred to in IMO Resolutions A.973(24) and A.974(24) with a view to increasing flag State synergies should be promoted by the Commission and should provide incentives to register vessels in the registers of Member States. If third countries were allowed, subject to guarantees regarding the necessary quality and survey systems, to conclude agreements with the Community enabling them to benefit from the good reputation of Community standards and from simpler administrative formalities, this could help, at a time when national registers and maritime administrations are engaged in global competition, to raise the overall degree of compliance with the IMO Conventions and eliminate international dumping.

(29) The European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA) established by Regulation (EC) No 1406/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council (1) should provide the necessary support to ensure the implementation of this Directive.

(30) The measures necessary for the implementation of this Directive should be adopted in accordance with Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission (2).

(31) Since the objectives of this Directive, namely the introduction and implementation of appropriate measures in the field of maritime transport policy, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States and can therefore, by reason of its scale, be better achieved at Community level, the Community may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty. In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Directive does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve those objectives,

Thursday 29 March 2007 ANNEX I

FLAG STATE CODE (FSC)

PARTS 1 AND 2 OF THE CODE FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF MANDATORY IMO INSTRUMENTS

PART 1 — COMMON AREAS

Objective

1. The objective of this Code is to enhance global maritime safety and protection of the marine environment.

2. Different Administrations will view this Code according to their own circumstances and will be bound only for the implementation of those instruments referred to in paragraph 6 to which they are Contracting Governments or Parties. By virtue of geography and circumstance some Administrations may have a greater role as a flag State than as a port State or as a coastal State, whilst others may have a greater role as a coastal State or port State than as a flag State. Such imbalances do not diminish, in any way, their duties as a flag, port or coastal State.

Strategy

3. In order for a State to meet the objective of this Code a strategy should be developed, covering the following issues:

(1) implementation and enforcement of relevant international mandatory instruments;

(2) adherence to international recommendations, as appropriate;

(3) continuous review and verification of the effectiveness of the State in respect of meeting its international obligations; and

(4) the achievement, maintenance and improvement of overall organisational performance and capability.

In implementing the aforementioned strategy, the guidance given in this Code should be adhered to.

General

4. Under the provisions of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea 1982 (Unclos) and of IMO conventions, Administrations are responsible for promulgating laws and regulations and for taking all other steps which may be necessary to give these instruments full and complete effect so as to ensure that, from the point of view of safety of life at sea and protection of the marine environment, a ship is fit for the service for which it is intended and is manned with competent maritime personnel.

5. In taking measures to prevent, reduce and control pollution of the marine environment, States shall act so as not to transfer, directly or indirectly, damage or hazards from one area to another or transform one type of pollution into another (Unclos, Article 195).

Scope

6. The mandatory IMO instruments addressed in this Code are:

(1) the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea, 1974, as amended (SOLAS 74);

(2) the Protocol of 1978 relating to the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea 1974, as amended (SOLAS PROT 1978); 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/155

Thursday 29 March 2007 (3) the Protocol of 1988 relating to the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea, 1974, as amended (SOLAS PROT 1988);

(4) the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships, 1973, as modified by the Protocol of 1978 (Marpol 73/78);

(5) the Protocol of 1997 to amend the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships, 1973, as modified by the Protocol of 1978 relating thereto (Marpol PROT 1997);

(6) the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers, 1978, as amended (STCW);

(7) the International Convention on Load Lines, 1966 (LL 66);

(8) the Protocol of 1988 relating to the International Convention on Load Lines, 1966 (LL PROT 1988);

(9) the International Convention on Tonnage Measurement of Ships, 1969 (Tonnage 69); and

(10) the Convention on the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, 1972, as amended (Colreg 72);

as well as all instruments made mandatory through these conventions and protocols. Non-exhaustive lists of obligations under the above mandatory instruments are found in Annexes 1 to 4. A list of the relevant instruments is given in Annex 5 and a summary of amendments to mandatory instruments reflected in the Code is given in Annex 6 (1).

Initial actions

7. When a new or amended IMO mandatory instrument enters into force for a State, the Government of that State must be in a position to implement and enforce its provisions through appropriate national legislation and to provide the necessary implementation and enforcement infrastructure. This means that a Government of the State must have:

(1) the ability to promulgate laws which permit effective jurisdiction and control in administrative, technical and social matters over ships flying its flag and, in particular, provide the legal basis for general requirements for registries, the inspection of ships, safety and pollution-prevention laws applying to such ships and the making of associated regulations;

(2) a legal basis for the enforcement of its national laws and regulations, including the associated investigative and penal processes; and

(3) the availability of sufficient personnel with maritime expertise to assist in the promulgation of the necessary national laws and to discharge all the responsibilities of the State, including reporting as required by the respective conventions.

8. A possible framework for national legislation to give effect to the provisions of relevant IMO instruments can be found in ‘Guidelines for Maritime Legislation’, a United Nations publication (2).

Communication of information

9. The State should communicate its strategy, as referred to in paragraph 3, including information on its national legislation to all concerned.

(1) These Annexes will be filled in at the occasion of MSC 80 (May 2005). Only Annexes 1, 2 and 5 are relevant for the flag State obligations. (2) ST/ESCAP/1076. C 27 E/156 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 Records

10. Records, as appropriate, should be established and maintained to provide evidence of conformity to requirements and of the effective operation of the State. Records should remain legible, readily identifiable and retrievable. A documented procedure should be established to define the controls needed for the identification, storage, protection, retrieval, retention time and disposition of records.

Improvement

11. States should continually improve the adequacy of the measures which are taken to give effect to those conventions and protocols which they have accepted. Improvement should be made through rigorous and effective application and enforcement of national legislation, as appropriate, and monitoring of compliance.

12. The State should stimulate a culture which provides opportunities to people for improvement of performance in maritime safety and environmental protection activities.

13. Further, the State should take action to identify and eliminate the cause of any non-conformities in order to prevent recurrence, including:

(1) review and analysis of non-conformities;

(2) implementation of necessary corrective action; and

(3) review of the corrective action taken.

14. The State should determine action to eliminate the causes of potential non-conformities in order to prevent their occurrence.

PART 2 — FLAG STATES

Implementation

15. In order to effectively discharge their responsibilities and obligations, flag States should:

(1) implement policies through the issuance of national legislation and guidance which will assist in the implementation and enforcement of the requirements of all safety and pollution prevention conventions and protocols they are party to; and

(2) assign responsibilities within their Administration to update and revise any relevant policies adopted, as necessary.

16. Flag States should establish resources and processes capable of administering a safety and environmental protection program which, as a minimum, should consist of the following:

(1) administrative instructions to implement applicable international rules and regulations as well as develop and disseminate any interpretative national regulations that may be needed;

(2) resources to ensure compliance with the requirements of the mandatory IMO instruments listed in paragraph 6 using an audit and inspection programme independent of any administrative bodies issuing the required certificates and relevant documentation and/or of any entity which has been delegated authority by the flag States to issue the required certificates and relevant documentation; 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/157

Thursday 29 March 2007 (3) resources to ensure compliance with the requirements of the 1978 STCW Convention, as amended. This includes resources to ensure, inter alia, that:

(3.1) training, assessment of competence and certification of seafarers are in accordance with the provisions of the Convention;

(3.2) STCW certificates and endorsements accurately reflect the competencies of the seafarers, using the appropriate STCW terminology as well as terms which are identical to those used in any safe manning document issued to the ship;

(3.3) impartial investigation can be held of any reported failure, whether by act or omission, that may pose a direct threat to safety of life or property at sea or to the marine environment, by the holders of certificates or endorsements issued by that Party;

(3.4) certificates or endorsements issued by the flag State can be effectively withdrawn, suspended or cancelled when warranted, and when necessary to prevent fraud; and

(3.5) administrative arrangements, including those involving training, assessment and certification activities conducted under the purview of another State, are such that the flag State accepts its responsibility for ensuring the competence of masters, officers and other seafarers serving on ships entitled to fly its flag (1);

(4) resources to ensure the conduct of investigations into casualties and adequate and timely handling of cases of ships with identified deficiencies; and

(5) the development, documentation and provision of guidance concerning those requirements that are to the satisfaction of the Administration, found in relevant mandatory IMO instruments.

ANNEX III

GUIDANCE ON FOLLOW UP ACTIONS ON SHIPS DETAINED BY A PORT STATE (as referred to in Article 6)

1. DETENTION BY A PORT STATE

1. When the competent authority of a Member State (hereinafter called the flag State) is informed that a ship flying its flag has been detained by another port State it should oversee the appropriate corrective measures to bring the ship into compliance with the applicable regulations and international conventions. The measures listed below are deemed to be appropriate; the list does not prevent the adoption of equivalent or additional measures, so long as they are consistent with the aims of, and the means of action afforded by, this Directive.

2. IMMEDIATE ACTIONS

1. As soon as the flag State is informed of the detention it should make contact with the company (the company for ISM purposes) and the port State to establish, as far as possible, the full circumstances of the detention.

2. Based on this information the flag State should consider what immediate action is necessary to bring the ship into compliance. It may consider that some deficiencies can be readily rectified and confirmed by the port State (for example a life-raft which needs servicing). In such cases the flag State should seek confirmation from the port State that the deficiencies have been rectified.

3. For more serious deficiencies, particularly structural ones and others covered by certificates issued by the flag State or by a recognised organisation (RO), the flag State should require a special supplementary inspection by one of its surveyors or appoint a surveyor from the RO to carry one out on its behalf. Initially this inspection should focus on those areas where deficiencies have been recorded by the port State. If deemed necessary by the flag State or RO surveyor it may then be extended to a full re-survey for those areas covered by the relevant statutory certificates.

4. In cases where the RO has carried out the inspection referred to in paragraph 3, its surveyor should report to the flag State on the actions taken and the condition of the ship following this inspection so that the flag State may determine what further action, if any, is necessary.

5. If the inspection by the port State has also been suspended in accordance with Article 9(4) of Directive 95/21/EC or Article 13(5) of Directive 2007/…/EC [on port State control] the flag State should arrange for re-survey of the ship for those certificates covering the areas where deficiencies have been recorded by the port State and for any other areas that are subsequently found to be deficient. The flag State should either conduct this survey themselves or require a full report from the surveyor from the RO and, when appropriate, confirmation that a satisfactory survey has been completed and that all deficiencies have been rectified. When satisfied, the flag State should confirm to the port State that the ship complies with the requirements of the relevant regulations and international conventions. C 27 E/164 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 6. In cases of the most serious non-compliance with regulations and international conventions the flag State should always send its own surveyor, rather than a surveyor from the RO, to conduct or oversee the inspections and surveys referred to in paragraphs 3 to 5.

7. Unless paragraph 10 applies, the flag State shall require that corrective measures are taken by the company to bring the ship into compliance with the applicable regulations and international conventions before the ship is allowed to sail from the port of detention (in addition to the corrective action required by the port State). If such corrective action is not taken the relevant certificates should be withdrawn.

8. The flag State should consider the extent to which the deficiencies recorded by the port State and found following a flag State inspection/survey indicate a failure of the safety management system of the ship and the company. As necessary the flag State should arrange for the re-audit of the ship and/or company and in liaison with the port State, consider whether this re-audit should take place before the ship is allowed to leave the port of detention.

9. At all times the flag State should liaise and cooperate with the port State to help ensure the rectification of deficiencies found and respond as quickly as possible to any requests for clarification from the port State.

10. If deficiencies cannot be rectified in the port of detention and the port State, in accordance with Article 11(1) of Directive 95/21/EC or Article 15(1) of Directive 2007/…/EC [on port State control], allows the ship to proceed to a repair yard the flag State should liaise with the port State to determine the conditions under which this voyage may take place and confirm these conditions in writing.

11. If the ship does not comply with the conditions referred to in paragraph 10 or fails to call at the agreed repair yard the flag State should immediately seek an explanation from the company and consider withdrawing the ship's certificates. In addition the flag State should carry out an additional survey at the first available opportunity.

12. If from the information available the flag State considers that the detention is unjustified it should make its concerns known to the port State and liaise with the company to consider whether to use the appeal procedure available in the port State.

3. SUBSEQUENT ACTIONS

1. Depending on the seriousness of the deficiencies found and the immediate follow up action taken, the flag State should in addition consider carrying out a additional survey of the ship after it has been released from detention. This additional survey should include an assessment of the effectiveness of the safety management system. As a guide an additional survey of the ship should be carried out by the flag State within [6] weeks of its being informed of the detention. This additional survey should be at the company's expense. If the flag State is scheduled to carry out a statutory survey on the ship within [3] months it may consider delaying the additional survey until that time.

2. Additionally the flag State should consider whether a re-audit of the company involved should be carried out. The flag State should also review the inspection history of other ships under the responsibility of the same company in order to identifying whether there are any common failings throughout that company's fleet.

3. If the ship has been justifiably detained more than once in the previous 2 years the follow up action should be more urgent and in any case an additional survey by the flag State should be carried out within [4] weeks of the flag State being informed of the detention. 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/165

Thursday 29 March 2007 4. If the detention also leads to the banning of the ship in accordance with Article 7b of Directive 95/21/EC or Article 10 of Directive 2007/…/EC [on port State control] the flag State must carry out an additional survey and take all the necessary steps to ensure that the company brings the ship into full compliance with all of the relevant conventions and regulations. When content, the flag State should provide to the company a document to this effect.

5. In all cases the flag State should consider what legal action might be taken against the company, including fines, of sufficient severity to discourage infringement of Community standards and international rules. In the case of a ship which persistently fails to comply with the requirements of Community regulations and the international conventions the flag State should consider what additional sanctions may be necessary including the deletion of the ship from its registry.

6. When all corrective measures to bring the ship into compliance with the international conventions and Community regulations have been completed, the flag State should send to the IMO and to the Commission a report, drawn up in accordance with SOLAS 74 as amended, Chapter I, Regulation 19(d) and paragraph 5.2 of IMO Resolution A.787(19) as amended, containing additional information relating to Community related provisions with regard to the Commission.

4. ADDITIONAL SURVEY

1. The additional survey as referred to above should include an examination of the following areas to sufficient depth to satisfy the flag State surveyor that the ship, its equipment and its crew comply with all regulations and international conventions applicable to them: — Certificates and documents — Hull Structure and equipment — Conditions of assignment of loadlines — Main machinery and systems — Cleanliness of machinery spaces — Life-saving appliances — Fire safety — Navigation equipment — Cargo handling equipment — Radio equipment — Electrical equipment — Pollution prevention — Living and working conditions — Manning — Crew certification — Passenger safety — Operational requirements including crew communication, drills, training, bridge and engine room operations and security.

2. It should also include, but not be limited to, the relevant items for an expanded inspection specified in Annex V to Directive 95/21/EC or Part C of Annex VIII to Directive 2007/…/EC [on port State control]. Flag State surveyors should not refrain from including, where deemed necessary, functional tests of items such as survival craft and their launching arrangem ents, main and auxiliary machinery, hatch covers, main electrical power and bilge systems.

Position of the European Parliament adopted at first reading on 29 March 2007 with a view to the adoption of Directive 2007/…/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the civil liability and financial guarantees of shipowners

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 80(2) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (1),

Having regard to the opinion of the Committee of the Regions (2),

Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (3),

Thursday 29 March 2007 Whereas:

(1) One element of Community maritime transport policy is to improve the quality of the merchant navy by making all economic operators act more responsibly.

(2) The protection of European coasts and European citizens in the face of ecological damage of any kind resulting from maritime accidents is an absolute priority for the EU.

(3) The protection of European coasts involves the dual aspects of preventing accidents by ensuring that only safe ships sail and of providing for the arrangements required to ensure that victims can, in as short a time as possible, receive compensation fully commensurate with the damage caused by an accident.

(4) Dissuasive measures have already been adopted under Directive 2005/35/EC of the European Parlia- ment and of the Council of 7 September 2005 on ship-source pollution and on the introduction of penalties for infringements (1), supplemented by Council Framework Decision 2005/667/JHA of 12 July 2005 to strengthen the criminal-law framework for the enforcement of the law against ship-source pollution (2).

(5) The international regimes in respect of civil liability and compensation of 3rd parties for damage related to maritime transport should be implemented and improved in order to guarantee that operators in the maritime transport chain ensure that goods are only transported on board ships of the highest standard, to ensure fair compensation of victims who are not party to the maritime transport chain and to encourage operators and their representatives to exercise greater vigilance and professionalism.

(6) It is appropriate that the 1996 Protocol to the 1976 Convention on Limitation of Liability for Maritime Claims (the 1996 Convention) be ratified by all Member States and by a large number of third countries.

(7) It is also appropriate that the 1996 International Convention on Liability and Compensation for Damage in Connection with the Carriage of Hazardous and Noxious Substances by Sea (the HNS Convention), the 2001 International Convention on Civil Liability for Bunker Oil Pollution Damage (the Bunker Oil Convention) and the 2007 Wreck Removal Convention be ratified by all Member States and by a large number of third countries.

(8) In order to ensure the full and uniform application of the 1996 Convention throughout the Euro- pean Union, it is appropriate to incorporate it into Community law. The Community regime of civil liability should enable shipowners to limit their liability to the ceilings laid down in that Convention and in accordance with the provisions thereof.

(9) It should not be possible to apply the limitation of liability under the 1996 Convention to victims not party to the maritime transport operation, if the owner of the ship responsible for the damage has failed to act in a professional manner and should have been aware of the harmful effects of his act or omission.

(10) The obligation to have a financial guarantee should make it possible to ensure better protection of victims. It will also help to eliminate substandard ships and make it possible to re-establish competition between operators. Such an obligation is a necessary complement to the 1996 Convention. In Resolution A.898(21), the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) recommended that States make financial guarantees obligatory. The level of insurance cover should be such as to address situations where the ceilings set by the 1996 Convention are insufficient, without imposing a disproportionate burden on the industry.

(1) OJ L 255, 30.9.2005, p. 11. (2) OJ L 255, 30.9.2005, p. 164. C 27 E/168 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 (11) Special measures should be taken in order to protect seafarers in the event of abandonment, on the basis of IMO Resolution A.930(22).

(12) The establishment of certificates proving the existence of a financial guarantee is a key element of this Directive, as are the notification of these certificates, mutual recognition of certificates between Mem- ber States and the accessibility of the financial guarantee to victims seeking compensation.

(13) The European Maritime Safety Agency established by Regulation (EC) No 1406/2002 of the Euro- pean Parliament and of the Council (1) should provide the necessary assistance for the purpose of implementing this Directive, especially with a view to averting legal inconsistencies between Mem- ber States.

(14) The measures necessary for the implementation of this Directive should be adopted in accordance with Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission (2).

(15) Since the objective of the action to be taken, namely the introduction of harmonised rules on liability and financial guarantees for shipowners in order to achieve high quality maritime transport, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States and can therefore, by reason of its scale and effects, be better achieved at Community level, the Community may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty. In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Directive does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve that objective,

HAVE ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

The provider of the financial guarantee covering the owner's civil liability shall be directly liable for compensation for loss or damage caused by the ship.

The provider of the financial guarantee may rely on any defence which the owner himself would be entitled to raise, with the exception of those based on the owner's bankruptcy or liquidation.

The provider of the financial guarantee may also rely on the fact that the loss or damage was the result of an act or omission of the owner committed intentionally. However, it may not rely on any defence which it could have raised in an action brought against it by the owner.

The provider of the financial guarantee may, in all cases, require the owner to be joined in the proceedings.

The future of Kosovo and the role of the EU

European Parliament resolution of 29 March 2007 on the future of Kosovo and the role of the EU (2006/2267(INI))

The European Parliament,

— having regard to Resolution 1244 of the United Nations Security Council of 10 June 1999,

— having regard to the report by the UN Secretary-General's Standards Review Envoy on the Comprehen- sive Review of the Implementation of Standards, submitted to the UN Security Council on 7 October 2005,

— having regard to the decision by the UN Security Council, in the Statement by its President of 24 Octo- ber 2005, to endorse the Secretary-General's proposal to initiate the status talks on Kosovo,

— having regard to the appointment, on 14 November 2005, of Mr Martti Ahtisaari as Special Envoy of the Secretary-General of the United Nations for the future status process for Kosovo,

— having regard to the Statement of the Contact Group (UK, France, Germany, Italy, United States and Russia) of 31 January 2006 underscoring the specific nature of the Kosovo problem — shaped, according to the Statement, by the disintegration of Yugoslavia and the resulting conflicts, ethnic cleansing and the events of 1999, and by the lengthy period of international administration under UN Security Council Resolution 1244 (1999) — and calling for an early negotiated settlement of the issue as the best course to follow, C 27 E/208 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 — having regard to the Presidency Conclusions of the European Council of 14/15 December 2006, which fully support Martti Ahtisaari's efforts towards a solution of the status question and reaffirm the Union's readiness to play a significant role in the implementation of the future status settlement,

— having regard to the Special Envoy's final report on Kosovo's future status and the Comprehensive Proposal for the Kosovo Status Settlement of 26 March 2007,

— having regard to Rule 45 of its Rules of Procedure,

— having regard to the report of the Committee on Foreign Affairs and the opinion of the Committee on International Trade (A6-0067/2007),

A. whereas the guiding principles for a settlement of the status of Kosovo adopted by the Contact Group on 7 October 2005 emphasise that a negotiated settlement should be an international priority and that, once started, the negotiation process cannot be blocked and must be brought to a conclusion; whereas those principles stipulate clearly that there cannot be any return to the pre-March 1999 situation, or any partition of Kosovo, or any union of Kosovo with any other country or part of any country,

B. whereas in the 1990s the population of Kosovo was subject to systematic acts of violence and repres- sion which in 1999 escalated into in a mass expulsion of the civilian population, leading the UN Security Council, in the wake of NATO action, to intervene and to place the territory under international civil and security control; whereas this created an unprecedented situation in international law,

C. whereas the events of March 2004, which must be condemned, prove the persisting tensions within Kosovo between the Albanian and the Serb communities and the need to find a solution which guarantees the rights of both ethnicities and of other ethnic groups, in line with the publications of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), the Council of Europe and other organisations with competencies in the field of the protection of minorities,

D. whereas determining the future status of Kosovo will contribute to its economic development, the emergence of a mature political class and the development of a tolerant, non-segregational society in the province,

E. whereas despite the numerous rounds of talks unfortunately no negotiated settlement acceptable to both sides could be reached, and taking note of the fact that the UN Special Envoy presented to the Contact Group and to the UN Secretary-General the proposals for the settlement,

F. whereas the final settlement cannot be dictated by threats of radicalisation in Kosovo or Serbia but must be the result of a solution which takes into account the interests of all parties involved,

G. whereas further delay in determining the status of Kosovo could have a negative impact on the already fragile and tense situation,

H. whereas the events of 1999, the long interim international administration and the emergence and gradual consolidation of Kosovo's Provisional Institutions of Self-government have created an exceptional situation that makes the reintegration of Kosovo into Serbia unrealistic,

I. whereas relations between Kosovo and Serbia, given their close cultural, religious and economic ties, should be further developed in a spirit of partnership and good neighbourliness in the interests of the whole population of Kosovo and Serbia, 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/209

Thursday 29 March 2007 J. whereas the lack of trust between the different ethnic groups, the still volatile situation and the need to further develop and consolidate democratic, multi-ethnic institutions in Kosovo call for a continuous international presence for the foreseeable future,

K. whereas the international community should continue to invest in education, especially in view of the serious challenges faced by Kosovo's younger generation,

L. whereas, given Kosovo's strategic position, the European Union must play a central role in monitoring, guaranteeing and facilitating the implementation of the status settlement as well as assisting in the establishment and consolidation of democratic institutions in Kosovo, with Parliament exercising its monitoring responsibilities,

M. whereas the EU contribution must, however, be conditional on the fulfilment, in the settlement, of certain minimum requirements,

N. whereas the final status settlement must be EU-compatible, i.e. it should provide for a constitutional framework which is compatible with Kosovo's European prospects and should allow the Union to deploy the full range of instruments it has at its disposal,

1. Supports the UN-led process to determine the final status of Kosovo and the efforts to establish a viable framework that guarantees stability and protection for all the communities in Kosovo and long-term, self-sustaining economic and social development; endorses Mr Ahtisaari's Comprehensive Proposal for a Kosovo Status Settlement and takes the view that sovereignty supervised by the international community is the best option for securing those objectives; on this basis, expects the UN Security Council to adopt swiftly a new resolution replacing Resolution 1244 (1999);

2. Takes the view that the only sustainable settlement for Kosovo is one which:

— grants Kosovo access to international financial organisations and thus allows it to start its economic recovery and create the conditions for employment creation;

— envisages an international presence in order to maintain the multi-ethnic character of Kosovo and to safeguard the interests and security of the Serb and Roma populations and of other ethnic communities;

— provides international support in order to secure the development of effective, self-sustaining institutions for the entire population of Kosovo, operating in accordance with the rule of law and the basic ground-rules of democracy;

— allows Kosovo to achieve its desire to be integrated in Europe, which in time will lead to relations of mutual interdependence with its neighbours;

3. Considers that any settlement regarding the future status of Kosovo must be in accordance with international law;

4. Expresses the hope that a strong and clearly pro-European government can be formed soon in Serbia, which will be seriously and positively engaged in seeking a solution to the question of the status of Kosovo; emphasises that such a government is also necessary for the purposes of full cooperation with the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) and will allow, under these conditions, for the re-opening of the negotiations on, and the final conclusion of, a Stabilisation and Association Agreement between Serbia and the European Union; C 27 E/210 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 5. Believes that the final settlement should cover inter alia the following aspects:

— a clear definition of the role and mandate of the international civilian and security presence;

— clear provisions on decentralisation which grant substantial autonomy in key areas such as education, health and local security and, in the case of Serb municipalities, allow direct but transparent links with Belgrade; such provisions must be financially sustainable and must not undermine the budgetary, executive and legislative prerogatives of a unitary Kosovo;

— full respect for human rights including the obligation to provide constitutional guarantees for the vital interests of minorities and refugees, and adequate mechanisms for safeguarding such interests;

— the protection of all cultural and religious sites;

— provisions regarding the establishment of a lightly-equipped, multi-ethnic internal Kosovar Security Force with limited scope, capability and functions, under the strict supervision of the NATO-led Kosovo Force (KFOR);

— international guarantees for the territorial integrity of all neighbouring states;

6. Underlines that the solution in Kosovo will set no precedent in international law, as Kosovo has been under UN rule since 1999 and UN Security Council Resolution 1244 (1999) already contained provisions on the need to resolve the question of Kosovo's final status; concludes, therefore, that the situation regarding Kosovo is in no way comparable with the situation in other conflict regions which are not under UN administration;

7. Emphasises that an agreement on the future of Kosovo must also include specific institutional arrangements for Kosovska Mitrovica which fully guarantee the rights and security of the Serb community without undermining the unity of Kosovo; believes that those arrangements should be directly supervised by the international community, in consultation with Belgrade; reminds Serbia, however, that such involvement in Kosovo is linked with Serbia's cooperation in implementing the final status settlement;

8. Welcomes, therefore, the fact that the Ahtisaari proposal outlines wide-ranging autonomy for the Serbian and other communities, including a substantial degree of municipal autonomy in line with the European principles of subsidiarity and self-governance;

9. Is of the opinion that the international community should, as far as possible, gear its presence towards assisting local authorities in:

— implementing the terms of the settlement;

— developing autonomous, ethnically balanced institutional, administrative, judicial and policing capacity;

— achieving progress in complying with UN standards and EU stabilisation and association benchmarks;

10. Believes, therefore, that, whilst it should be staffed in a manner commensurate with its tasks, the international presence in Kosovo should not result in the establishment of a parallel administration or replicate the existing UN-led administration;

11. Emphasises that the international community must have direct corrective and, in limited cases, sub- stitution powers in crucial areas such as:

— safeguarding the vital interests of minorities;

— the protection of sensitive sites;

— security;

— the judiciary and the broader rule of law, particularly in the fight against organised crime; 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/211

Thursday 29 March 2007 12. Stresses that additional efforts are needed to support the further return of refugees and displaced persons throughout Kosovo; underlines that the key to sustainable return is work opportunities and that sustainable economic development must now become a priority; underlines that non-Serb and non- Albanian refugees, such as Roma and Ashkali, need special attention, including the Roma internally displaced persons living in the camps in Kosovska Mitrovica;

13. Supports the need for an inclusive and fair educational system which will provide for Roma and Ashkali pupils to be partially educated in the Roma language, thereby nurturing the identity and culture of those minority communities;

14. Underlines the important role that the United Nations Security Council has to play for a final decision on the future status of Kosovo; urges the European Union and its Member States, and in particular those Member States which are also members of the UN Security Council, to give their full and active support to a viable solution for the future status of Kosovo;

15. Considers that the adoption of a new UN Security Council resolution is also crucial for the future engagement of the EU in Kosovo, and that no enhanced EU involvement should be envisaged in the absence of such a resolution;

16. Is convinced that, in the light of its central role in the implementation of the settlement, the Euro- pean Union should have a decisive say on the final terms of the settlement;

17. Believes that Member States should try to reach a single position on the question of Kosovo and therefore calls on the Council to endeavour to adopt a common position on the status issue spelling out the minimum requirements of a sustainable, EU-compatible solution for Kosovo;

18. Recalls that, in accordance with Article 19 of the Treaty on European Union, Member States represented in the UN Security Council would be expected to uphold that common position and to keep the EU Council regularly informed about negotiations; also calls for Parliament to be kept regularly informed;

19. Calls on those EU Member States that are members of the Contact Group to share their information with the Council and all other Member States, and to improve coordination and cooperation with them, because the EU as a whole will bear the international responsibility and the financial burden of the final settlement;

20. Urges Member States in the UN Security Council and, in particular, the Permanent Members to play a constructive role, to strive to ensure that the two parties involved act in a flexible manner and to adopt an unambiguous, sustainable solution for Kosovo, along the lines of the proposals submitted by the Special Envoy, with the agreement of the two parties as far as possible;

21. Is prepared to make available the additional resources required in order to finance the future EU involvement in Kosovo with a view to implementing the status settlement and supporting Kosovo's EU prospects, provided that:

— the status settlement supported by the UN Security Council takes adequate account of the Union's common position,

— sufficient advance consultation takes place on the scope, objectives, means and modalities of that mission, so that Parliament can be reassured that the resources are commensurate with the tasks;

— those additional financial resources are made available in accordance with the terms of the Interinstitu- tional Agreement of 17 May 2006 between the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on budgetary discipline and sound financial management (1); and

— an international donors' conference is convened in due time;

Thursday 29 March 2007 22. Supports the establishment of a European Security and Defence Policy (ESDP) mission in Kosovo that will contribute to the implementation of the status settlement in the field of the rule of law; considers that the ESDP mission should have all the resources necessary to ensure that it can implement its mandate and assume the heavy responsibility with which it will be entrusted;

23. Recalls the commitment, given by the Finnish Presidency on behalf of the Council in connection with the adoption of the budget for 2007, to provide Parliament with detailed information on the scope, objectives and likely financial implications of the possible forthcoming operation as the planning of the mission proceeds;

24. Points out that the European Union is represented in Kosovo both by the Commission's Liaison Office and by bodies under the Council Secretary-General/High Representative; invites the Council to give further consideration to the question whether the organisation of its presence in Kosovo can be further streamlined and simplified;

25. Is concerned about the way in which the transition from the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK) to the new International Civilian Office will be managed; reminds UNMIK that it should remain engaged in Kosovo until the new Office is organised and fully operational; invites the UN and the EU to devise means to prevent further loss of international expertise in crucial areas of administration, particularly in view of the fact that Kosovo's Provisional Institutions of Self-Government will need time and assistance to take over certain legislative and executive powers from UNMIK;

26. Urges the OSCE to continue to play a major role in Kosovo after the status settlement with regard, in particular, to the monitoring and verification of election processes; calls in this regard on both the Council and the OSCE to enhance their cooperation in the field of the rule of law, with a clear division of tasks as regards the ESDP mission;

27. Expresses its support for the EU's emphasis on the judiciary and the rule of law in the post-settlement phase, underlining that a smooth transfer of responsibilities will be needed; calls for the establishment for a clear and transparent division of tasks and responsibilities between domestic Kosovo courts and judicial authorities and the planned EU law and order mission; demands full accountability and respect for the rule of law in relation to detentions and other actions by KFOR;

28. Points out to the Kosovo authorities that the international community expects them

— to focus their efforts on developing the institutional and administrative capacity required in order ultimately to take over the responsibilities hitherto exercised by UNMIK;

— to elaborate a Kosovar concept of citizenship that explicitly builds on the multi-lingual and multi-ethnic character of the region, while making full provision for the various ethnic communities that constitute the population of Kosovo;

— to work seriously and constructively towards the establishment of a multi-ethnic, multicultural, multi- faith, tolerant country and society that respects the rights of all ethnic groups;

29. Underlines in this context that the international presence will remain in Kosovo until the above objectives are truly embedded and realised;

30. Is deeply concerned about the recent violent demonstrations in Kosovo, which are seriously endan- gering the smooth continuation of the process of finding a peaceful solution for the future status of Kosovo; calls on both sides to exercise the utmost restraint and to make a peaceful conclusion of the status process possible; 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/213

Thursday 29 March 2007 31. Further reminds the Kosovo authorities that, once the status issue is finally resolved, the people of Kosovo will want their government to address the problems which affect their daily lives, such as those relating to security, economic development, corruption and organised crime, employment, adequate public services and equality for all before the law;

32. Invites the EU and Kosovo's authorities to work together so as to create conditions for improved economic growth for the benefit of all ethnic communities in Kosovo; reiterates the need for the establishment of a comprehensive and realistic long-term economic development plan as well as for full compliance with the fundamental principles of the rule of law, and a detailed and properly resourced anti-corruption strategy;

33. Emphasises the need to give more support to the development of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) on the basis of the European Charter for Small Enterprises, which has been endorsed by Kosovo; calls on the Commission to ensure access to EU Structural Funds, provide better financing for SME-related projects and set up an institutional framework to enhance cooperation between the Community and the private sector in Kosovo;

34. Urges the leaders of the Serb community in Kosovo to recognise that their interests are better served in a democratic, decentralised and economically viable Kosovo, and to engage in the post-settlement process in order to ensure that those provisions of the agreement which are of direct interest for them are fully implemented;

35. Calls on the Serbian Government to recognise that the future lies in the development of close, transparent ties with Kosovo, in the context of deepened regional integration and of the shared prospect of future EU membership;

36. Stresses that finding a solution to the issue of the future status of Kosovo on the basis of Mr Ahtisaari's final proposals is of the greatest importance for the stability and the further development of the entire region; calls in this context on the governments of all neighbouring states to contribute positively to this process and to respect the existing state borders; furthermore, supports the view that, in the long run, the solution regarding the future status of Kosovo lies also in the fact that both Serbia and Kosovo are due to become part of the EU, together with their neighbours, since the future of the Western Balkans lies in the European Union;

37. Reiterates that anchoring Kosovo firmly within the Stabilisation and Association Process will, inter alia, strengthen Kosovo's economic relations with Member States and their neighbours in the Western Bal- kans and facilitate the stabilisation process in the region;

38. Welcomes the signature of the free-trade agreements with Albania, the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Bosnia-Herzegovina and Croatia; urges Kosovo's authorities to fully implement those agreements and ensure that free trade with Serbia and Montenegro continues;

39. Calls on the Council and the Commission to proceed towards a visa facilitation agreement for Kosovo, as part of the post-settlement phase and along the lines currently negotiated with its neighbouring countries, taking into consideration the special problems related to Kosovo, namely the lack of consular offices of many Member States and the use, so far, of UNMIK passports;

40. Calls on the Kosovar and Serbian authorities to fully cooperate with each other and with the ICTY in order to deliver up alleged war criminals; C 27 E/214 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 41. Believes that the publication of Mr Ahtisaari's report should be accompanied by an outreach campaign aimed at explaining clearly and objectively to the peoples concerned, including Serb citizens, the terms of the proposed settlement, and that a message of peaceful co-existence must be stressed by the European Union in relation to Kosovo; considers that a Kosovo that recognises the rights of the majority and the minority will be stable and prosperous;

42. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council and the Commission, to the Govern- ment of Serbia and the Provisional Institutions of Self-Government of Kosovo, to UNMIK, to the Members of the Contact Group, to the United Nations Security Council and to the UN Secretary-General's Special Envoy for the future status process for Kosovo.

A. whereas the first European Community, the European Coal and Steel Community established on 23 July 1952, was financed by a genuine system of own resources, based on a levy raised on each ton of steel produced, to be paid directly by the coal and steel producing companies into the ECSC budget,

Thursday 29 March 2007 B. whereas, under the Treaty of Rome of 25 March 1957, the European Economic Community was to be financed by national contributions only for a transitional period to be followed by a changeover to a system of own resources,

C. whereas this changeover finally took place on 21/22 April 1970 when the European Council in Lux- embourg agreed on a decision ending national contributions and introducing a new system of financing based on two genuine own resources — agricultural levies and customs duties — complemented by a third resource based on value added tax (VAT),

D. whereas all Parliament's efforts (1) to use the actual VAT returns to determine the assessment base to be used for the VAT resource (‘returns method’) instead of the harmonised base calculated by applying an average weighted rate on the total net revenue (‘revenue method’) were in vain, with the result that the VAT resource changed from a genuine own resource with a strong direct link to European citizens to a purely statistical device for calculating a contribution of a Member State,

E. whereas the ‘Fontainebleau Agreement’ concluded by the Heads of State and Government on 25/26 June 1984 clearly stated that ‘expenditure policy is ultimately the essential means of resolving the question of budgetary imbalances’; whereas at the same time however the European Council created the ‘British rebate’, a correction mechanism for the United Kingdom, stipulating that, from 1985 onwards, the UK would receive 66 % of the difference between its share of VAT payments and its share of expenditure allocated for the year in question; whereas the cost of this rebate was to be financed by all Member States, with a ceiling being placed on Germany's contribution; whereas this led to the United Kingdom's enjoying a rebate on its annual contributions to the EU budget that has amounted to a yearly average of EUR 5,3 billion in the period 2001-2004,

F. whereas, at the same summit, the Heads of State and Government also agreed to make eligible for the same type of rebate, in principle and at the appropriate time, ‘any Member State which should sustain a budgetary burden considered excessive in relation to its relative prosperity’,

G. whereas the European Council in Brussels on 11-13 February 1988 established a ceiling for the Com- munity budget of 1,2 % of GNP for payments and 1,3 % for commitments and confirmed that Member States could retain 10 % of the revenue from traditional own resources to cover their collection cost,

H. whereas the ceiling of own resources was raised to 1,24 % of EU GNI in payment appropriations and 1,31 % in commitment appropriations during the period 1993-1999, for an EU of 15 Member States, and has remained unchanged since then despite enlargement,

I. whereas, most importantly, the 1988 Brussels European Council created a fourth ‘additional’ resource based on GNP which should be drawn upon if and when the amount collected from VAT and from traditional own resources was insufficient to cover the Community's financial commitments,

J. whereas, over the course of time, this resource has become the key resource of the European Union's budget, accounting for an estimated 70 % of revenue for the financial year 2007, while the VAT resource accounts for about 15 % so that the share of traditional own resources (customs duties and agricultural levies together) has decreased to only 15 % of revenue,

K. whereas the current Own Resources Decision of 29 September 2000 entered into force on 1 March 2002 and has as its main features: an own resources ceiling of 1,24 % of the Union's GNI (equivalent to 1,27 % of GDP) for payment appropriations and 1,31 % of GNI (equivalent to 1,335 % of GDP) for commitment appropriations, an allowance for the Member States for their collection cost of traditional own resources of 25 %, a maximum call-in rate of VAT of 0,50 %, a value added tax base of the Member States restricted to 50 % of their GNP (capping of the VAT base) and a rebate in favour of one Member State with exceptions for some other Member States concerning the financing of this rebate,

(1) E.g. Cornelissen Report: European Parliament 1985: ‘Can Parliament tolerate the fact that revenue from VAT is being increasingly watered down to a national financial contribution following the necessary abandonment of the principle of the uniform VAT rate and can it accept that the establishment of the uniform VAT base is ultimately reduced to a statistical calculation? … Or must every effort be made in connection with the calculation of the VAT base to revive the Communities' own resources system and the financial autonomy of the Community which is dependent thereupon?’. 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/217

Thursday 29 March 2007 L. whereas the Commission's latest proposal presented in 2006 aims at implementing the decisions of the Brussels European Council of 15/16 December 2005 in the area of own resources which are mainly characterised by adding even more special arrangements for certain net contributing Member States such as reduced rates of call of VAT or gross reductions in annual GNI contributions to the already existing list of exceptions, thereby adding to the complexity and incomprehensibility of the system and further nourishing the short-sighted concept of budgetary imbalances,

M. whereas the European Council has also renewed the decision taken in 2000 to increase the collection premium to be retained by the Member States from 10 % to 25 % of traditional own resources, despite the undisputed fact that this percentage bears no relation to the Member States' actual collection costs, favours Member States that collect a large share in custom duties, to the detriment of those who do not, and should thus rather be considered as another form of rebate,

N. whereas the Commission proposal for a new own resources decision, although in the meantime accepted by Parliament (1), is still blocked in Council by Member States which were first in favour of it but which are now opposed to applying it themselves,

O. whereas Parliament considers the comprehensive review of EU revenue and expenditure to take place in 2008/2009, as stipulated in the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006, as an opportunity — not to be missed — to return to a genuine but fair system of own resources in the spirit of the founding treaties of the European Communities,

P. whereas consultations with those national parliaments interested in discussing this matter have been held since the beginning of 2006 in order to make every effort to establish a common parliamentary basis for this forthcoming review process,

Q. whereas, so far, these consultations have been simple exchanges of personal views among parliamentar- ians, due to the fact that most national political parties and parliaments have not yet had the opportunity to adopt an official position on the issue of own resources,

R. whereas, however, these meetings have made it possible to identify, among those participating, several areas of consensus and a widely shared objective of finding a way of working together on the future of EU financing,

S. whereas, in the meantime, a proposal has been made by the President of the Portuguese national assembly to organise a conference of the Chairpersons of the Committees on Budget and Finance of the national parliaments and the European Parliament, dedicated to the Union's own resources and Financial Framework, during the Portuguese presidency later in 2007,

Shortcomings of the current financing system

1. Points out that a system in which approximately 70 % of the Union's revenue do not originate in own resources but come directly from the national budgets through the GNI resource, and 15 % come from a resource such as the percentage of the VAT rate which cannot be regarded (on account of the way in which it is determined) as being in every respect an EU own resource, departs from the provisions and the spirit of the Treaty of Rome; points out that the very existence of the European Union has brought about an increase in intra-Community trade and an increase in the Member States' ‘wealth’, for which reason the EU is fully entitled to equip itself with a system of genuine own resources instead of one fed by national contributions;

2. Emphasises that it is these ‘membership fees’ that have accentuated the short- sighted net-payer debate that does not do justice to the benefits of the European Union in terms of peace, freedom, prosperity and security, regardless of the fact that the concept of ‘net budgetary balances’ is seriously flawed also in technical terms and does not allow for more than pure approximations; underlines that neither revenue side (‘Rotterdam effect’) nor expenditure side (‘Luxembourg effect’) of the net balances fully reflect reality;

Thursday 29 March 2007 3. Is deeply convinced that the current system of own resources based on Member States' contributions is both unfair to the general public and anti-democratic, and does not help to highlight the commitment to European integration; furthermore, such a system, since it makes the contribution to the European Union be perceived as an additional burden on national budgets, does not provide the Union with sufficient funds for all its policies; is highly critical of the possibilities being created for individual countries to finance officially only the policies in which they have an interest; fears that this might be the beginning of the destruction of the values that have characterised the European Union's success over the past 50 years;

4. Stresses that the current system, with its four different resources and its several different rebate mechanisms, be they general ones in favour of one Member State such as the British rebate, or special ones such as rebates in financing other rebates, is excessively complex, lacks transparency and is completely incomprehensible to European citizens; underlines that it does nothing towards fulfilling the requirement of establishing a direct link between the Union and its citizens;

5. Notes that the requirement of unanimity in decisions on ‘own resources’ and ‘financial frameworks’ makes any result of negotiations in these areas dependent on the goodwill and financial possibilities of even the most reluctant Member States, rich or poor; finds it not surprising that the results of this are often disappointing;

6. Attributes to this faulty system the inadequacies of the European Council agreement on the new Financial Framework 2007-2013 made at the Brussels European Summit of 14/15 December 2005; believes that the financial package agreed, with its numerous exceptions on the revenue side and its compensation gifts to certain Member States on the expenditure side, is the clearest proof of the complete failure of the current system; considers it unacceptable that all Member States have agreed on important Community activities, such as Galileo or the Transeuropean Networks, and set ambitious goals, e.g. as regards the Goteborg and Lisbon objectives or the Millennium Goals, and now no-one wants to finance them;

7. Deplores the fact that the 2005 Brussels European Council, instead of creating a simpler and more transparent system, made it even more complicated and obscure by leaving the UK correction, the ‘British rebate’, in principle intact and adding further derogations and corrections benefiting other Member States;

8. Points out that, if the Edinburgh Decision of 1992 setting an own resources ceiling of 1,24 % of GNI had been fully used, the Community budget would have gained an annual 0,2 % of GNI over the last 13 years, equivalent to an increase of approximately EUR 240 billion; considers these funds, which were unanimously adopted by the Member States according to a proposal by the British presidency, necessary in order to enable the European Union to act in line with its growing challenges and powers, in particular as regards its role in the world; the efforts to achieve the Lisbon objectives (innovation, education, research, infrastructure and employment) or as agreed upon in the treaties of Maastricht, Amsterdam and Nice, let alone in the draft Constitution and for a Union of 27 Member States;

9. Underlines that, since 1995, the European Budget has increased by only 8,2 % in real terms and its share in the GNI has decreased, while at the same time the national budgets have increased by an average of 23 %, i.e. nearly three times as much;

First phase of the reform: an improved system of national contributions

10. Acknowledges the fact that any reform of the own resources system will be a sensitive and difficult exercise, to be conducted with the involvement of the Member States' parliaments; calls therefore for a progressive approach which could be introduced in two stages but which should form part of a single decision on account of the fact that the laborious Community procedure would make it impossible for two decisions to be taken within a relatively short period of time. The provisional and transitional 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/219

Thursday 29 March 2007 first phase would lead to an improvement of the current system of national contributions, for which the following political principles should be applied:

— equality between Member States

— simplicity of presentation for elected representatives and citizens alike

— solidarity and equal dignity amongst Member States

— establishment of a political link between a reform of revenue and a review of expenditure as it is already correctly included in the Interinstitutional Agreement;

Equality between Member States

11. Defines ‘equality between Member States’ by the absence of any budgetary privilege for any Member State; admits that it may be difficult for certain Member States to agree to give up a long history of special arrangements on the revenue side and of a certain distribution of expenditure which may justify any reform only being progressively applied (‘phasing out’ of the old system); refuses, however, to accept the long history of budgetary privileges as an argument in favour of maintaining a system which, once the necessary reforms are on their way, will no longer be justifiable;

Simplicity of presentation

12. Underlines the importance of the improved system being presented in the simplest possible way so that it is comprehensible and transparent for European citizens; deplores presentations of decisions affecting all European citizens' lives which are completely incomprehensible, such as the presidency conclusions relating to EU finances of the 2005 Brussels European Council;

Solidarity and equal dignity between Member States

13. Calls for a system safeguarding the principles of solidarity and equal dignity amongst Member States; considers these principles are undermined by the current system of own resources where some benefit from compensations while others can only achieve compensation by bargaining at European Council meetings; recalls that, of the 46 articles in the presidency conclusions of the 2005 Brussels European Council determining expenditure on new Heading 1b — Cohesion for Growth and Employment, a full 20 are ‘Additional provisions’ handing out ‘Christmas presents’ freely to various Member States or regions (1);

Political link between reform of revenue and expenditure

14. Is convinced that the political link between a reform of revenue and a review of expenditure is inevitable and perfectly reasonable, especially as long as the logic of financing Community policies through revenue stemming from national budgets is still the Union's guiding principle;

Provisional and transitional character of the system

15. Points out that any improved current system as a first stage of the suggested two-step approach has to be considered provisional and transitional because the profound weaknesses of the Member States' contributions system make it politically unsustainable;

16. Shares, however, the view of the European Court of Auditors (2) that thorough reform of the Com- munities' system of own resources is very difficult to achieve if the discussion of such a reform is directly combined with negotiations on financial ceilings and amounts to be spent for Community policies under a multiannual financial framework, as has repeatedly been the case in the European Council's discussions in the past;

(1) See the Annex to this resolution. (2) See paragraph 18 of opinion No 2/2006 (OJ C 203, 25.8.2006, p. 50). C 27 E/220 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 Recommendations for an improved system of national contributions

Schreyer proposals

17. Recalls that proposals for improving the current system of financing have already been made, for instance, those submitted by Commissioner Michaele Schreyer in July 2004 (1) according to which:

— every Member State, regardless of its wealth, is entitled to a rebate which is triggered when its contribution to the EU budget reaches a threshold of 0,35 % of GNI,

— the refund would be in form of a 66 % abatement of the Member State's net contribution, and

— the overall maximum refund available for all rebates is capped at EUR 7,5 billion per year;

18. Admits that some aspects of the Schreyer proposals went in the right direction insofar as they would have made the system slightly more transparent by at least abolishing the ‘rebate on the rebate’ principle or as they would have limited compensations and corrections — with the major positive point being that it was only conceived as a transitional system until 2014;

19. Is convinced, however, that generalising the rebate even when accompanying it by a ceiling for the net budgetary balances would be a double mistake since it would only strengthen the anti-communitarian character of the system and cement the short-sighted approach of a quantifiable ‘juste retour’; insists that the only possible solution is the abolition of the net balances system once and for all in parallel with a reform of the pattern of expenditure; emphasises that what sets European spending apart is precisely its added value based on the principle of financial solidarity;

Question of structural and cohesion expenditure

20. Rejects categorically the idea included in other reform proposals of excluding structural and cohesion expenditure from all computations for the purpose of establishing Member States' contributions or rebates on these contributions since such a step would bring in differentiation between ‘noble’ and ‘suspicious’ expenditure, thus opening the door for a European Union à la carte where policies would ultimately be financed solely by the Member States which have an interest in them;

Conclusion

21. Notes the proposal put forward by Finland in April 2004 on replacing the current financing system of the European Union, while leaving in place traditional own resources, by a GNI based system, taking GNI shares as the basis for the Member States' contributions towards the Union's own resources, abolishing the VAT resource in its current form, as it is only a mathematical basis for calculating the national contributions, and progressively suppressing the British rebate to zero in 2013;

22. Underlines the fact that this system would have the advantage of being simple and transparent and of constituting a possible step towards the establishment of a genuine own resources system for the Union and that all Member States contributing to the UK rebate at the moment would benefit, as would the UK itself, through the abolition of the VAT resource in its current form; stresses that this does not prejudice the long- term inclusion of an altered VAT in the financing of the European Union;

23. Recognises that the GNI resource is less visible for citizens but equitable in relating contributions to the general level of prosperity of Member States and an expression of solidarity between them;

24. Is aware of the fact that an agreement on a new financing system along the lines of the Finnish proposal is only politically acceptable within the framework of a global negotiation process which also includes expenditure; calls on the Commission to consider the GNI based system described above when making any new proposals on EU revenue following the review process as laid down in the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006;

Thursday 29 March 2007 25. Stresses that the link between revenue and expenditure should form an aspect of the considerations concerning the changeover to a new system; rejects any attempt to renationalise the Common Agricultural Policy;

26. Recommends that the first phase of the reform could start immediately after the ratification of the agreement to be reached; while keeping the system of national contributions as such, it would become simpler, more transparent and absolutely in proportion with the relative wealth of each Member State; emphasises, however, the temporary nature of such a phase, in that its sole aim would be to prepare the ground for the introduction of a genuinely new own resources system;

Second phase of the reform: a new system of own resources

27. Confirms the views which it has expressed earlier, to the effect that the aim of the reform of Com- munity revenue must be the creation of a genuine own resource for the European Union to replace the existing mechanisms; recalls that this objective and the proposals to achieve it are not in the least revolu- tionary but merely seek to revive the letter and spirit of the founding treaties;

28. Considers the following principles, which have emerged in all contacts with national parliaments, as cornerstones for any future own resources system:

— Full respect for the principle of fiscal sovereignty of the Member States

— Fiscal neutrality

— No changes to the order of magnitude of the EU budget

— Progressive phasing-in of the new system

— Establishment of a clear political link between a reform of revenue and a reform of expenditure;

Full respect for the fiscal sovereignty of the Member States

29. Considers that, as stated in the Treaties and in the draft Constitution, fiscal sovereignty will remain with the Member States who might, however, authorise the Union, for a limited period to be revoked at any time, to benefit directly from a certain share of a tax as is the case in most Member States with regional or local authorities;

Fiscal neutrality

30. Is convinced that, all other things being equal, the new system must not increase overall public expenditure nor the tax burden for citizens; concludes that, should a new system directly allocate a tax, visible for all citizens, partly or in full, to the European Union, an equivalent reduction would have to be made elsewhere; suggests that the national courts of auditors and the European Court of Auditors should be invited to check and guarantee compliance with this principle;

31. Considers that the development of a new system of own resources must take into consideration the efforts of Member States to coordinate their policies in the field of taxation;

No changes to the order of magnitude of the EU budget but securing sufficient EU budget revenue to meet EU political priorities

32. Sees no need at the moment to alter the ceiling of 1,24 % of GNI which already allows for a sizeable margin of manoeuvre; recalls that no budget has ever come close to this ceiling, agreed by the Member States themselves in 1992 under British presidency, with payment appropriations reaching their maximum level in 1993 at 1,18 % of GNP; underlines that, although the financial framework foresees a percentage of 1,045 % of GNI for the years 2007-2013, the first budget of this period was adopted at a level as low as 0,99 % of GNI; C 27 E/222 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 Progressive phasing-in of the new system

33. Calls for a gradual introduction of the new system starting in 2014; is in favour of allowing for a transitional period in order to guarantee a smooth phasing-out of the old financing system with all its historical special arrangements;

Establishment of a clear political link between a reform of revenue and a reform of expenditure

34. Points out that a reform of the structure of EU revenue and a reform of the structure of EU expenditure have to go hand in hand, as foreseen in Declaration No 3 annexed to the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006;

35. Notes that an own resources system which ensures EU budget revenue evolution following the growth of wealth in the Member States will improve the political climate of budgetary decision-making, enabling decision-makers to concentrate on key priorities with EU added value instead of bargaining on expenditure levels;

36. Welcomes the initiative launched at the joint meetings of the European Parliament and the Member States' parliaments for the purpose of bringing together a special working party on own resources; considers dialogue with the Member States' parliaments to be essential if any progress is to be made in the reform of own resources;

Possible options for the future

37. Reiterates that, in contacts with the national parliaments of the Member States, many have considered that the time for a new European tax has not yet come in the short term; underlines, however, that this does not rule out the possibility that, if and when Member States decide to levy new taxes, they could at the same time, or at a later stage, decide to authorise the Union to benefit directly from such new taxes;

38. Stresses, however, that it will be vital in a second phase to examine the creation of a new system of own resources based on a tax already levied in the Member States, the idea being that this tax, partly or in full, would be fed directly into the EU budget as a genuine own resource, thus establishing a direct link between the Union and European taxpayers; points out that this would also serve to approximate national tax laws; underlines that this kind of solution would only mark a return to the principle laid down by the Treaty of Rome, whereby European expenditure has to be financed by European own resources;

39. Recalls that the candidate taxes in whole or in part which were taken into consideration for this purpose during the exchanges with the national parliaments or in the Commission's reports on the reform of the own resources system include the following:

— VAT

— excise duties on motor fuel for transport and other energy taxes

— excise duties on tobacco and alcohol

— taxes on corporate profits;

40. Notes that in the discussions in the European Parliament other possible avenues were also explored such as:

— taxes on dealings in securities

— taxes on transport or telecommunications services

— income tax 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/223

Thursday 29 March 2007 — withholding tax on interest

— ECB profits (seigniorage)

— ecotax

— taxes on currency transactions

— taxes on savings

— taxes on financial transactions

41. Considers that the suitability of a new system of own resources should be judged according to the following criteria:

— Sufficiency: Would the revenues be sufficient to cover the expenditures of the EU in the long run?

— Stability: Would the system bring about stable revenues for the EU budget?

— Visibility and simplicity: Would it be visible to EU citizens and would it be understood by them?

— Low operating costs: Would it be simple to administer and involve low compliance costs?

— Efficient allocation of resources: Would it lead to an efficient allocation of resources in the EU?

— Vertical equity: Would it involve income redistribution?

— Horizontal equity: Would it have an equal impact on equivalent taxpayers across the EU?

— Fair contributions: Would this resource raise revenues from the Member States in line with their economic strength?

42. Wishes to pursue the examination of these options in close cooperation with the national parliaments before taking a final position; gives high priority to establishing, possibly during the Portuguese presidency, a common basis for discussion with regard to the coming review of EU revenue; will make every effort to arrive at a position on the future of the Union's own resources which can be supported by a majority of the Member States' parliaments;

43. Considers this resolution a first but solid basis on which to build further efforts to find a fairer and more transparent, new system of financing the European Union; intends to discuss and adopt its final position on a new system of own resources for the European Union in time for it to be taken into account in the deliberations concerning the comprehensive review of EU revenue and expenditure as agreed in the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006;

44. Instructs its President to forward this resolution and its Annex to the Council and Commission and to the governments and parliaments of the Member States.

The European Parliament,

— having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 272 thereof,

— having regard to Council Decision 2000/597/EC, Euratom of 29 September 2000 on the system of the European Communities' own resources (1),

— having regard to Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities (2),

— having regard to the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 between the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on budgetary discipline and sound financial management (3),

— having regard to the fifth report by the Secretaries-General of the Institutions of May 2006 on trends in heading 5 of the financial perspective,

— having regard to the annual report of the Court of Auditors for the 2005 financial year on the implementation of the budget, together with the institutions' replies (4),

— having regard to the report of the Committee on Budgets (A6-0069/2007),

(1) OJ L 253, 7.10.2000, p. 42. (2) OJ L 248, 16.9.2002, p. 1. Regulation as amended by Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1995/2006 (OJ L 390, 30.12.2006, p. 1). (3) OJ C 139, 14.6.2006, p. 1. (4) OJ C 263, 31.10.2006, p. 1. C 27 E/226 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 A. whereas the 2007 budget for heading 5 was set at EUR 7 115 000 000, with the European Parliament's budget amounting to EUR 1 397 460 174, representing 19,65 % of heading 5,

B. whereas the 2008 budget marks the first year in which no major challenge such as enlargement or the introduction of new languages nor any other event with major administrative effect is foreseen,

C. whereas the institutions have to consolidate the last two enlargements,

D. whereas at this stage of the annual procedure, the European Parliament is awaiting the other institutions' estimates and its own Bureau's proposals for the 2008 Budget,

General Framework

1. Notes that the ceiling of heading 5 in 2008 is EUR 7 457 000 000 which represents an increase of 4,8 % compared to 2007;

2. Notes that, mainly as a result of enlargement, the budget of the institutions has increased by nearly 18 % in the last four years; considers that for the year 2008 all of them have reached a fully functional stage and have been provided with the means to ensure their administrative functions; calls on the institutions to adopt a prudent budgetary approach when setting up their 2008 Estimates;

3. Considers that the European Parliament is accountable to citizens and that efficient use of taxpayers' money can contribute to boosting their confidence in EU institutions; is of the opinion that the institutions' 2008 budget should in principle remain close to the level of the previous year's budget since no major events (enlargements or new languages) justifying an increase are foreseen; considers that any new initiative should be financed, in the first instance, within the ceiling of the current budget, unless there are specific grounds to the contrary;

4. Acknowledges that interinstitutional cooperation can be beneficial in terms of economies of scale and in terms of efficiency but can also undermine an institution's independence or identity; considers that the correct balance should be sought among all the institutions for the above elements; asks the Secretaries- General to report on their mutual collaboration; expects to receive, by 1 July 2007, information on the quality, efficiency and financial aspects, as well as the possible advantages and disadvantages of the interinstitutional cooperation among the institutions, including the quality and the efficiency of the services provided by the offices and bodies set up within the framework of the cooperation;

5. Recalls that a number of regular reports have been requested in its resolutions during the previous years concerning the progress of recruitment of staff from EU-10 and EU-2 and the status of recruited staff; therefore calls on the institutions to continue this screening exercise as foreseen in the joint declaration on recruitment in relation with the 2004 and 2007 enlargements adopted with its resolution of 14 December 2006 on the draft general budget of the European Union for the financial year 2007 providing information on a global level as well as on each institution (1);

European Parliament

POLITICAL PRIORITIES

Provide efficient services to Members to enable better law-making

6. Considers that, as a co-legislator, optimal working conditions should be provided to its Members in order to facilitate the accomplishment of their role and enhance the quality of EU legislation; is of the opinion that the assistance to Members can be improved by providing the adequate specialised or technical information within short time frames; insists that MEPs should be better informed and aware of all the resources and materials available to them on the basis of the work undertaken by different services within Parliament (studies, technical and background documents);

(1) Texts Adopted, P6_TA(2006)0570. 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/227

Thursday 29 March 2007 7. Wishes to ensure that the best possible linguistic services are provided to all Members, including the new ones, above all at official meetings of Parliament bodies; is willing to consider reasonable proposals for a more personal level of service to Members, under transparent and clearly defined conditions, within their tasks, and will examine the cost-efficiency of such proposals;

8. Wishes to explore the possibility of having meetings rooms available to all Members for talks with experts in relatively small groups (8-20 people) especially in view of the new D4-D5 buildings; considers that, in order to take account of the unpredictable needs arising from Parliament's work, it ought to be possible to reserve such rooms at sufficiently short notice and with a minimum of bureaucracy; expects a report by 1 July 2007 on any such existing facilities and the possibilities for developing them further;

9. Notes that achieving the best assistance to Members for the performance of their duties requires further development of the working and administrative structures and the strengthening of existing services; requests that the administration examine possibilities for the extension of the facilities provided to Members by the Library by its providing research support and an extensive single document and information reposi- tory of all existing texts and expertise (Knowledge Management System); expects relevant proposals with cost estimations, which also include the possibility of publishing the answers to such queries on the Parlia- ment's Intranet, to be presented by 1 July 2007;

10. Deplores the geographical dispersion of its administration among the three places of work and the additional costs that this implies in terms of running costs and in particular when travelling from one place to another; considers that the administration should provide Members with all kinds of facilities which offer new technologies in order to limit the negative impact of the European Parliament's geographical layout such as the synchronisation of computers with mobile phones or the use of video conference rooms;

11. Observes that despite the substantial budget allocated to information technology, some problems remain such as the slowing down of the network in Strasbourg or the time needed to implement any new IT projects; invites therefore the Secretary-General to include, in the preliminary draft report on estimates, a specific section, under Annex IV, dedicated to IT projects launched in the past five years with indications regarding the provisional costs, the starting and provisional delivery dates, the delivery dates and the final costs;

12. Calls on the Secretary-General to make proposals concerning the structure and capacity of the committee secretariats, in order to improve the follow-up to legislation and to the budget procedure; asks for relevant proposals by the administration to be presented by 1 July 2007;

Enhance the effectiveness of the communication tools of Parliament and its political groups

13. Is of the opinion that the European Parliament's communication is made up of a mosaic of different channels, which are complementary and share a common goal, that is to inform effectively the EU citizen on its activities and contribution to European construction;

14. Considers that the European Parliament's communication is two-fold, being composed of, firstly, the institutional communication made by the administration involving ‘factual’ information and, secondly, more politically oriented information reflecting the different views, positions and activities of the political groups and Members;

15. Considers that improvements in communication and information policy can be achieved in a more coherent way within a global concept of communication for EU citizens where the added value of each tool is identified as expressed in paragraph 21 of its resolution of 26 October 2006 on the draft general budget for 2007 (Sections I, II, IV, V, VI, VII and VIII) (1);

(1) Texts Adopted, P6_TA(2006)0452. C 27 E/228 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 16. Wishes to improve the tools used to raise European citizens' awareness of the role of the European Parliament in the legislative and decision-making process, of its activities in the field of European policy as well as the activities of the Members and political groups of the European Parliament, and to address the shortcomings related to the image of the European Union, especially in view of the 2009 elections; considers that the existing channels of communication do not respond adequately to this need;

17. Believes, in particular, that greater involvement of the local and regional media would be highly profitable for the European project; invites therefore the administration to provide an action plan for communication oriented to the local and regional media and to explore new tools, in particular in order to prepare the next European elections, which will allow Members to communicate to local media; recalls that a special budget was allocated for a public awareness campaign in the year preceding the previous European electoral year;

18. Points out that both the existing tools of communication and those under development have to be shaped in the most efficient way to improve public awareness of our institution among EU citizens; believes that both the administration and the political groups should be involved in the shaping and assessment of these tools;

19. Calls for an inventory, by 1 July 2007, of the actions on communication set up by external offices and in partnership with the Commission in the Houses of Europe and an assessment of their effectiveness and impact;

20. Recalls that a new policy on the visitors' groups of Members was launched in July 2006 which represents an improvement compared to the former situation; is of the opinion that further improvements are possible, in particular in terms of flexibility, and that after the new Visitors' Centre is completed the minimum obligatory number of visitors and the reimbursement can be reconsidered, taking into account visitors' particularities in order to cover the real cost; therefore expects to receive by 1 July 2007 a new proposal which will take Members' concerns into account and be implemented as soon as possible;

21. Acknowledges the progress being registered on the visitors' programme in recent years; underlines however that further improvement could be made in areas where visitors are exposed to the real life of Parliament and expects answers to precise questions relating to the possibility of visits to the Plenary Chamber and the availability of more meeting rooms (1); asks for relevant proposals by the administration to be presented by 1 July 2007;

Improve the budget allocation

22. Recalls that budgeting for the last two years has been done on the basis of justified needs for the efficient functioning of the institution; underlines that the European Parliament budget should be set at the level which allows the most effective work to be provided by the institution within a rational level of financial resources; considers that the budgetary level for 2008 including increases relating to adjustment on current prices should aim at remaining at the budgetary level of 2007 and should not in any event be more than 20 % of heading 5 which should constitute the upper limit of the budget; invites therefore the Bureau to consider the European Parliament's accountability to EU citizens when deciding on the level of Parliament's estimates;

23. Notes that 2008 will be the last full year before the election of the Members of the European Parlia- ment and the implementation of the Members' Statute in 2009; considers that the necessary measures to accommodate the latest enlargement have been taken; apart from the fine-tuning of the budgetary needs for accommodating the new Member States, no major developments with financial consequences are expected;

(1) Texts Adopted of 26.10.2006, P6_TA(2006)0452, paragraph 26. 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/229

Thursday 29 March 2007 24. Takes notes that one of Bureau's priorities is to make Parliament a more visible actor in external policy whilst underlining the importance of fostering dialogue between cultures and the promotion of democracy; points out that the European Parliament has set up a number of delegations and Assemblies with national parliaments from third countries which are not clearly identified in the European Parliament's budget; invites therefore the administration to present a report by 1 July 2007 on the existing entities and the ones under development in this area of expenditure including a financial assessment of the needs for the forthcoming years;

25. Regrets the limited flow of information on issues that are of joint competence with other decision- making bodies of the European Parliament and especially as regards decisions that have a financial impact on the European Parliament's budget; considers that mutual efforts should be deployed to enhance the exchange of information at an early stage of decision making;

26. Notes that the ex ante budget estimations for the overall cost of the development of projects are not always reliable; regrets this approach and considers that for major projects in cases of an important devia- tion from the initial cost foreseen, they should be substantiated and the projects should be re-submitted to the competent bodies for re-evaluation and approval;

27. Notes that several budget lines are regularly under-financed or, on the contrary, over-financed; recalls that transfer requests throughout the implementation year should be limited to extraordinary cases and only to issues that could not have been foreseen; calls on the administration to estimate the necessary appropriations for each budget line more accurately and to forecast them on a more realistic level;

OTHER ISSUES

Buildings

28. Recognises the savings achieved due to the advance payments made over the last ten years on buildings; underlines that the European Parliament is now the owner of most of its buildings in the three places of work and will start to focus its investment on external offices; intends to re-examine the principle of co- sharing the external offices with the Commission on the basis of the report requested for March 2007 in paragraph 47 of its aforementioned resolution of 26 October 2006; calls, to that end, for the establishment of a common report, from the Commission and the European Parliament, on the modalities of co-sharing offices in terms of staff, logistics, running costs and the different time schedules of co-financing the purchase of joint offices; notes that this has been made possible, until now, due to the availability of appropriations in Parliament's budget;

29. Encourages the effort made by the administration to improve the security system in the Houses of Europe; urges the administration and the Commission to undertake, jointly and proportionally, the cost thereof;

Staff

30. Is of the opinion that, after the recent increase of the establishment plan (21 % over a period of four years) linked mainly to the two enlargements and to the increase in the number of official languages, the institution should have the human resources necessary for its functioning and should take the time to integrate them efficiently; will therefore consider any request for new posts after the administration has presented a report with its short and medium term strategy regarding redeployment possibilities which includes training and development programmes related to redeployment; will examine the demands on the basis of this detailed information;

31. Encourages addressing the shortcomings impeding the availability and best quality of interpretation services, while maintaining a proper balance between quality and cost, thereby ensuring value for money; C 27 E/230 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 32. Considers that the redeployment policy started in 2006 should be pursued in order to consolidate the last two enlargements and to reinforce the efficiency of the administration while respecting political priorities; invites its Secretary-General to present in detail its strategy for 2008 in the estimates;

33. Is particularly attentive to the costs related to geographical dispersion and will examine the possibilities to rationalise them better; will, in particular, focus on the number of missions undertaken by staff within the three places of work; points out that the cost of these missions amounted to EUR 12 799 988 in 2005 and 71 369 days, excluding mission costs related to the staff of the political groups; considers that efforts could be made in this area to increase efficiency; invites the Secretary-General to present a report, by 1 July 2007, on staff missions per Directorate-General in the three places of work and the respective cost;

34. Expresses its concern about the uncertainties relating to the European School system; recalls that staff are entitled to benefit from a well-functioning and attractive schooling system and therefore undertakes to ensure that such a system is maintained;

35. Notes plenary's decision to fully support the adoption of a real and meaningful statute for Members' assistants; expects the Council to take a final decision on this issue by the beginning of September 2007 in order to permit the allocation of the necessary funds for it; calls on its Bureau to push forward the issue of the statute for Members' assistants vis-à-vis the Council; is convinced that such a statute will contribute to improving the quality of Members' activities;

Security

36. Acknowledges the financial impact of the necessity to have the best security conditions possible for Members and staff in the three places of work; encourages the administration to implement the new badge system as quickly as possible which would ease the Members' day-to-day work, in particular the use of electronic signatures, by giving them a more secure environment; underlines that data protection provisions need to be respected at all times;

37. Considers that EU institutions should serve as an example in implementing environmentally friendly policies and improved energy efficiency; reminds that the European Parliament has committed in applying the EMAS regulation and of the request (report on 2006 other institutions budget) to the Bureau to study ways to reduce the rise in energy costs, including the option of reducing air-conditioning in the summer time; calls for more efficient use of paper and reduced distribution of printed material, making printed versions of many Parliament's official documents available on an opt-in basis; expects to receive from the administration, by 1 July 2007, a report on the actions already foreseen and proposals in the indicated areas accompanied by the needs in terms of staff and financial cost estimations;

Other institutions

38. Invites the institutions to present a budget which reflects their real needs; considers that after two major enlargements and the introduction of 12 languages, 2008 should be a year of mobilisation of the means available (human, technological and logistical) in the most efficient way; recalls that transfer requests and adaptation of the establishment plan in the course of the financial year do not constitute the proper way of managing the budget and should be exceptional; expects the institutions to pay attention to these elements when presenting their estimates;

39. Encourages the institutions to reinforce their interinstitutional cooperation even in fields where at first glance they do not see any potential for rationalisation and for improving efficiency, given that the budget of the institutions will not grow in the future at the same rhythm as in the past;

40. Notes that the institutions have substantially increased their building expenditure over the last years and will further increase it in the next four years; considers that it is time to suspend the further growth of their real estate; therefore invites the institutions to examine carefully all other possibilities before foreseeing any further extension of buildings; moreover calls on the institutions, in the context of the interinstitutional cooperation, to be ready to share the remaining amount available in their budgets at the end of the year, to absorb their building expenses as quickly as possible; 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/231

Thursday 29 March 2007 41. Recalls that harmonisation in the presentation of the estimates of the institutions would make the different budgets easier to understand and increase transparency for EU citizens;

42. Would appreciate if the estimates were to include a chapter where the institutions set out their particularities and the improvements made over the year; this would allow the budgetary authority to better evaluate and understand the specific needs of each institution;

43. Asks the institutions to monitor the level of recruitment of staff related to the last two enlargements closely and to provide the budgetary authority with information at least twice a year;

Council

44. Takes note of the limited increase of the Council's budget in 2007; will be attentive to its future evolution and to the changes made in its nomenclature, in particular under Title 3; acknowledges the fact that the Council is providing relevant information on the topics of Parliament's interest;

Court of Justice

45. Is of the opinion that, after the establishment of the Civil Service Tribunal and two major enlargements, the Court should rationalise its working methods and keep the level of its budget stable;

Court of Auditors

46. Takes note of the development of appropriate training programmes for junior auditors and the modernisation of the informatics sector initiated last year and expects to have more information on the result achieved until now of these initiatives;

European Economic and Social Committee & Committee of the Regions

47. Expects to receive a clear signal on the nature of the future collaboration between the two Commit- tees from 2008 onwards, by the time of the presentation of the estimates; is of the opinion that it would not be sufficient reason to increase the overall level of their respective budgets;

Ombudsman

48. Has taken note of the efforts made by the Ombudsman to stabilise the growth of its budget and in particular of the establishment plan in 2007; expects this stability to be maintained in 2008;

European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS)

49. Notes that 2008 will be the fourth full year of activity for the EDPS which will soon reach cruising speed; encourages therefore the EDPS to submit a medium-term plan of activities which will include its needs and a deadline regarding the implementation of the new nomenclature as initiated by the other institutions since 2005;

50. Consequently is of the opinion that 2008 will be the last year of important growth of the budget and in particular of the establishment plan; recalls that modification of the establishment plan, as well as any expenditure, needs to be justified;

Future of professional football in Europe

European Parliament resolution of 29 March 2007 on the future of professional football in Europe (2006/2130(INI))

The European Parliament,

— having regard to the Helsinki Report of 10 December 1999 (1) and to the Nice Declaration of 8 Decem- ber 2000 (2) on the specific characteristics of sport and its social function in Europe,

— having regard to Articles 17 and III-282 of the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe (the Con- stitutional Treaty),

— having regard to the UK Presidency initiative on European football, which resulted in the ‘Independent European Sport Review 2006’,

— having regard to the case-law of the Court of Justice of the European Communities (the Court of Justice), the Court of First Instance and the Commission's decisions in sports-related matters,

— having regard to Rule 45 of its Rules of Procedure,

— having regard to the report of the Committee on Culture and Education and the opinions of the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs, the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs, the Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection and the Committee on Legal Affairs (A6-0036/2007),

A. whereas the Commission has underlined in the Helsinki Report the need for a partnership between football's governing bodies and public authorities for the good governance of the game, which fully respects the self-regulatory nature of professional sport,

B. whereas European sport, and football in particular, is an inalienable part of European identity, European culture and citizenship, and the European Football Model, characterised by open sports competitions within a pyramid structure in which several hundred thousand amateur clubs and millions of volunteers and players form the base for the top professional clubs, is the result of longstanding democratic tradition and grass-roots support in the community as a whole;

C. whereas football plays an important social and educational role, and is an effective instrument for social inclusion and multicultural dialogue, and needs to play an active part in counteracting discrimination, intolerance, racism and violence, as many of such incidents are still taking place in and around stadiums, and whereas professional football clubs and leagues also play a vital social and cultural role in their local and national communities;

D. whereas professional football has both an economic and a non-economic dimension,

E. whereas the economic aspects of professional football are subject to Community law, and the case-law recognises the specificity of sport and the social and educational role played by football in Europe,

F. whereas it is thus the responsibility of the national and European political and sports authorities to ensure that, when Community law is applied to professional football, it does not compromise its social and cultural purposes, by developing an appropriate legal framework, which fully respects the fundamental principles of specificity of professional football, autonomy of its bodies and subsidiarity,

Thursday 29 March 2007 G. whereas it was decided, in view of the growing importance of sport in the European Union's various policies (freedom of movement, recognition of qualifications, competition, health and audiovisual policies), to include sport in the Constitutional Treaty as an area of EU competence (under Articles 17 and III-282); and whereas the Constitutional Treaty has not been ratified by all of the Member States, and the Nice Declaration on sport in the EU alone is not sufficient to deal with the current problems, which go beyond national dimensions and accordingly call for European solutions,

H. whereas the greater professionalisation and commercialisation of sport in general and football in particular has made EC law much more relevant in this area, a fact reflected in the growing number of cases pending before the Court of Justice and the Commission,

— this has greatly exacerbated the problem of legal uncertainty and the sectors concerned increasingly see an approach based solely on treating cases individually as inadequate, a view also documented in the study commissioned by a number of sports ministers in the EU Member States and recently published under the title ‘Independent European Sport Review 2006’,

— it is not clear, for example, whether the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) rule stipulating that teams must contain a minimum number of home-grown players, a provision which is extremely important for youth development, would, if it were reviewed by the Court of Justice, prove to be consistent with Article 12 of the EC Treaty,

I. whereas as a result of this legal uncertainty, it is not clear either how much autonomy self-regulating bodies, such as UEFA, national associations and national leagues, enjoy and to what extent they are bound, when exercising their right to self-regulation and performing their regulatory function, by certain principles of Community law such as free movement, non-discrimination and competition rules,

J. whereas this legal uncertainty is not only problematic in economic terms, but in particular in terms of the social, cultural and educational functions of football, and at the same time reduces the interest of fans and efforts to improve support, and undermines the principle of fair play,

K. whereas a decision has been taken to include sport in the Constitutional Treaty as a matter of EU competence (Articles 17 and III-282) in order to give the EU powers to develop its European dimension,

L. whereas professional football does not function like a typical sector of the economy and whereas professional football clubs cannot operate under the same market conditions as other economic sectors, because of the interdependence between sports opponents and the competitive balance needed to preserve the uncertainty of results, and whereas its various actors, including supporters, players, clubs, leagues and associations, do not operate as normal consumers or enterprises,

M. whereas the future of professional football in Europe is threatened by the growing concentration of economic wealth and sports power,

N. whereas the growing importance of revenues from the sale of broadcasting rights may undermine the competitive balance between clubs from different countries, as such revenues are largely determined by the size of national broadcasting markets,

O. whereas for many decades professional football has increasingly been characterised by an international dimension and has equally been affected by different international regulatory and legislative regimes,

P. whereas diverging national legislation and licensing criteria in Europe cause an uneven playing field, economically and legally, and this situation seriously hampers fair sports competition between teams in European leagues, and hence also between national teams,

Q. whereas the participation of women in sport in general is still far below the level of men, whereas women are still under-represented in the sports decision-making bodies and whereas there are still cases of gender-discrimination in the remuneration of sports professionals, C 27 E/234 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 R. whereas, despite the fact that the Bosman ruling in 1995 had a positive effect on players' contracts and players' mobility — though a lot of employment-related and social problems remain to be solved — it also had several negative consequences for the sport, including an increased ability on the part of the richest clubs to sign up the best players, a stronger link between financial power and sporting success, an inflationary spiral in players' salaries, reduced opportunities for locally-trained players to express their talent at the highest level and reduced solidarity between professional and amateur sport,

S. whereas many criminal activities (match fixing, corruption, etc.) are the result of the spiral of spending, salary inflation and the subsequent financial crises faced by many clubs,

T. whereas the Commission has confirmed in formal decisions the compatibility of the collective selling of media rights with EC competition law,

General context

1. Stresses its attachment to the European Football Model, with its symbiotic relationship between amateur and professional football;

2. Points out the importance of the inter-linked national pyramid structures of European football, which nurture grassroots talent and competition because national leagues and competitions are also the route to European competitions, and a proper balance needs to be struck between the national foundation of the game and the European level to enable football leagues and associations to cooperate efficiently;

3. Recognises the need for a joint effort by football governing bodies and political authorities at several levels to counter certain negative developments, such as excessive commercialisation and unfair competition, in order to ensure a positive future for professional football with exciting competitions, a high degree of identification of supporters with their clubs and wide public access to competitions by means of, among others, special ticket prices for young people and families, especially for major international matches;

4. Welcomes the work of the above-mentioned Independent European Sport Review 2006 and of the study commissioned by the European Parliament on ‘Professional Sport in the Internal Market’, and calls on the Member States, European and national football governing bodies and the Commission in its forthcoming White Paper on Sport to continue the efforts initiated by the UK Presidency to assess the need for policy measures with due respect for the principle of subsidiarity by considering the principles and main recommendations of that Review;

5. Expresses its desire to avoid the future of professional football in Europe being solely determined on a case-by-case basis and to enhance legal certainty;

6. Agrees with the basic principle that the economic aspects of professional sport do fall within the scope of the EC Treaty, taking into account the specificity of sport as set out in the Nice Declaration; and considers that in this respect the consequential restrictive effects of a sporting rule are compatible with EU law, provided that the rule pursues a legitimate objective related to the nature and purpose of sport and that its restrictive effects are inherent in the pursuit of that objective and proportionate to it;

7. Calls on the Commission to develop guidance on how to apply this principle, and to start a consultation process with the European and national football authorities with the aim of setting up a formal framework agreement between the EU and the European and national football governing bodies;

8. Asks the Commission, in partnership with Parliament, the Member States and the European and national football governing bodies and other stakeholders, to include the principles and recommendations contained in this resolution in its forthcoming White Paper, and to establish an action plan for European sport in general and football in particular which sets out the issues for the Commission to deal with and the instruments to be used in order to enhance legal certainty and a level playing-field; 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/235

Thursday 29 March 2007 9. Asks the Commission to continue a structured dialogue with the football governing bodies, including national associations and leagues, and other stakeholders in order to overcome the problem of legal uncertainty;

10. Welcomes the success of and great interest in women's football in Europe and draws attention to its growing social significance;

Governance

11. Calls on all football governing bodies to better define and coordinate their competences, responsibilities, functions and decision-making procedures in order to increase their democracy, transparency and legitimacy, for the benefit of the entire football sector; invites the Commission to provide guidance on which legitimate and adequate self-regulation is supported, with due regard to national legislation and financial support for federations and associations which aims at developing and cultivating young footballers and the national team;

12. Calls on UEFA to involve representation organisations representing players, clubs and leagues in the decision-making process;

13. Believes that improved governance leading to more concerted self-regulation at national and Euro- pean level will reduce the tendency to have recourse to the Commission and the Court of Justice;

14. Recognises the expertise and legitimacy of sporting tribunals insofar as they address citizens' right to a fair hearing, as laid down in Article 47(2) of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union;

15. Takes the view that applying to the civil courts, even when not justified in sports terms, cannot be penalised by disciplinary regulations; and condemns the arbitrary decisions by the Federation of Interna- tional Football Association (FIFA) in this respect;

16. Asks UEFA and FIFA to accept in their statutes the right of recourse to ordinary courts, but recognises however that the principle of self-regulation implies and justifies the structures of the European sports model and the fundamental principles governing the organisation of sporting competitions, including anti- doping regulations and disciplinary sanctions;

17. Insists that the principle of proportionality is essential to all football governing bodies when exercising their self-regulatory power; and asks the Commission to ensure that this principle is applied in legal cases concerning sport;

18. Calls on FIFA to increase its internal democracy and the transparency of its structures;

19. Believes that the Charleroi case currently before the Court of Justice could seriously undermine the ability of small and medium-sized national football associations to take part in international competitions and threaten the vital investment in grassroots football made by national associations; in this respect, believes that clubs should release their players for national team duty without entitlement to compensation; encourages UEFA and FIFA, together with the European clubs and leagues, to reach an agreement on the conditions applicable to players who are injured while representing their countries and on a system of collective insurance being put into place;

20. Supports the UEFA club licensing system, which aims at ensuring a level playing-field between clubs and contributing to their financial stability, and calls on UEFA to further develop this licensing system in compliance with Community law in order to guarantee financial transparency and proper management;

21. Recommends a vigorous campaign by the national and European political and sports authorities to establish greater transparency and good governance in European professional football; C 27 E/236 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 22. Supports efforts to protect the integrity of the game by ruling out conflicts of interests of major stakeholders in clubs or governing bodies;

23. Calls on the Commission to reflect, in consultation with football governing bodies, leagues and clubs, on the introduction of a European legal status for sports companies to take account of the economic activities of major football clubs whilst preserving their specific sports-related characteristics; such a status would make it possible to establish rules for monitoring the economic and financial activities of such companies and for the involvement of supporters and community participation;

24. Asks Member States and football governing bodies to actively promote the social and democratic role of football fans who support the principles of fair play, by supporting the creation and development of Supporters' Trusts (in recognition of their responsibility) which could then be involved in the ownership and management of clubs, through the appointment of a football ombudsman and specifically through extend- ing the model of Supporters Direct at European level;

25. Asks UEFA to examine how supporters' organisations could be involved as important stakeholders when they are organised at European level and to examine the feasibility of a European Supporters Direct body;

26. Considers that professional footballers, their trade-union representatives and the clubs and leagues should be more closely involved in the governance of football through a better social dialogue;

Fight against criminal activities

27. Supports the efforts of the European and national football governing bodies to introduce greater transparency in the ownership structures of clubs and asks the Council to develop and adopt measures for the fight against the criminal activities that haunt professional football, including money laundering, illegal betting, doping and match fixing, and enforced prostitution on the sidelines of major football events;

28. Emphasises the need to ensure full compliance with transparency and money-laundering legislation by entities involved in the football sector;

29. Calls on Member States to introduce mechanisms fostering cooperation between clubs, the police and supporters' organisations, with a view to combating violence and hooliganism and other forms of delin- quent behaviour before, during and after football matches and to exchange best practices;

30. Asks the Council to strengthen the coordination of preventive measures and sanctions concerning hooligans, also in relation to national games; calls in this respect on the Council to implement its Decision 2002/348/JHA concerning security in connection with football matches with an international dimension and if necessary to approve additional measures following recent violent incidents in and outside football stadiums;

31. Calls on Member States, Europe's footballing authorities and associations and leagues to conduct a major European-wide campaign to raise awareness among supporters, with a view to curbing violence inside and outside football grounds;

Social, cultural and educational role of football

32. Highlights the importance of education through sport and the potential of football to help get socially vulnerable youngsters back on track and asks Member States, national associations, leagues and clubs to exchange best practices in this regard;

33. Calls on the Commission and Member States also to support social inclusion projects by football clubs; 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/237

Thursday 29 March 2007 34. Expresses its clear support for the UEFA measures to encourage the education of young players by requiring a minimum number of home-grown players in a professional club's squad and by placing a limit on the size of the squads; believes that such incentive measures are proportionate and calls on professional clubs to strictly implement this rule;

35. Is convinced that additional arrangements are necessary to ensure that the home-grown players initiative does not lead to child trafficking, with some clubs giving contracts to very young children (below 16 years of age);

36. Points out that young players must be given the opportunity for a general education and vocational training, in parallel with their club and training activities and that the clubs should ensure that young players from third countries return safely home if their career does not take off in Europe;

37. Insists that immigration law must always be respected in relation to the recruitment of young foreign talent and calls on the Commission to tackle the problem of child trafficking in the context of Council Framework Decision 2002/629/JHA of 19 July 2002 on combating trafficking in human beings (1) and/or in the context of the implementation of Council Directive 94/33/EC of 22 June 1994 on the protection of young people at work (2); points out that young players must be given the opportunity for a general education and vocational training in parallel with their club and training activity, so that they do not depend entirely on the clubs; calls for action to prevent the social exclusion of young people who are ultimately not selected;

38. Calls on the football governing bodies and the clubs to engage in the fight against human trafficking by

— subscribing to a European charter for solidarity in football, that commits subscribers to respect good practices concerning the discovery, recruitment and reception of young foreign football players;

— the creation of a Solidarity Fund that would finance prevention programmes in countries most affected by human trafficking;

— reviewing Article 19 of the FIFA Regulations for the Status and Transfer of Players in relation to the protection of minors;

39. Underlines the important social and educational role of training centres and the vital role which they play in both the well-being of clubs and the future development of football talent, supports financial incentives for clubs with a training centre, provided such incentives are compatible with the Treaty rules on State aid, and asks the Commission to recognise this crucial role when developing guidelines on State aid;

40. Stresses the need for an environment to be created in which young players can develop and be brought up in a spirit of honesty and fair play;

41. Urges the Member States to introduce a gender perspective in all aspects of sports policies, with the aim of further reducing the continuing difference between men and women both in representation on sports bodies and in remuneration, as well as in actual participation in sport, thus equalising the personal and social benefits flowing from sport;

Employment and social issues

42. Regrets the differences in social and fiscal legislation between Member States, which cause imbalances between clubs, and the lack of willingness of Member States to solve this at European level;

43. Emphasises the importance of the mutual recognition of professional qualifications gained in another Member State in allowing the free movement of workers;

(1) OJ L 203, 1.8.2002, p. 1. (2) OJ L 216, 20.8.1994, p. 12. C 27 E/238 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 44. Believes that the current economic reality surrounding players' agents requires that football governing bodies at all levels, in consultation with the Commission, improve the rules governing players' agents; in this respect calls on the Commission to support UEFA's efforts to regulate players' agents, if necessary by presenting a proposal for a directive concerning players' agents which would include: strict standards and examination criteria before anyone could operate as a football players' agent; transparency in agents' transactions; minimum harmonised standards for agents' contracts; an efficient monitoring and disciplinary system by the European governing bodies; the introduction of an ‘agents' licensing system’ and agents' register; and ending ‘dual representation’ and payment of agents by the player;

45. Calls on UEFA and the Commission to intensify their efforts to strengthen the social dialogue at European level on issues such as the duration of contracts, the definition of the transfer window, possibilities for terminating a contract early and compensation for trainer clubs, as it can prevent and overcome tensions between players and employers;

46. Welcomes the move by FIFPro, UEFA and the European Professional Football Leagues (EPFL) to further players' rights by ensuring that players always are given written contracts with certain minimum requirements;

47. Acknowledges the need to implement employment legislation more effectively in all Member States to ensure that professional players are granted the rights they are entitled to and fulfil the obligations they comply with as employees;

48. Asks the Commission actively to support initiatives and campaigns to fight child labour in football- related industries and examine all political and legal possibilities to ensure that the rights of all workers, including children, are respected;

Fight against violence, racism, other forms of discrimination

49. Asks the Commission, the Member States and all those involved in professional football to accept, since the legal entitlement to a workplace free of racism and other forms of discrimination also applies to footballers, their responsibility for continuing and intensifying the fight against racism and xenophobia by condemning all forms of discrimination inside and outside the stadium; asks for stricter sanctions against any kind of discriminatory acts in football; asks UEFA and the national associations and leagues to apply disciplinary rules in a coherent, firm and coordinated manner, without neglecting the financial situation of clubs;

50. Also calls in this connection on the Commission, UEFA and other interested parties to take action on Parliament's Declaration of 14 March 2006 on tackling racism in football (1); compliments UEFA and FIFA on the tougher sanctions being incorporated in their statutes and for the measures being taken, and looks forward to further action by all the parties concerned in the football sector;

51. Calls on the Commission, UEFA and other interested parties not to allow other forms of discrimination, such as discrimination on grounds of sex, origin, sexual orientation or otherwise, to go unpunished inside and outside the football stadium;

52. Condemns all forms of violent behaviour in football stadiums, encourages Member States to apply the strictest measures at their disposal in order to reduce and eliminate all forms of violence on the sports field and expresses its support for the UEFA measures seeking to eradicate it;

Competition law and the internal market

53. Strongly believes that the introduction of a modulated cost-control system could be a way of enhancing financial stability and the competitive balance between teams, for instance when integrated into an updated club licensing system;

(1) OJ C 291 E, 30.11.2006, p. 143. 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/239

Thursday 29 March 2007 54. Considers that football must ensure the interdependence of competitors and the need to guarantee the uncertainty of results of competitions, which could serve as a justification for sports organisations to implement a specific framework on the market for the production and the sale of sport events; however, considers that such specific features do not warrant an automatic exemption from the Community competition rules for any economic activities generated by professional football, owing to the increasing economic weight of such activities;

55. Asks the Commission to draw up clear guidelines on the application of the State aid rules, indicating what kind of public support is acceptable and legitimate in order to fulfil the social, cultural and educational role played by football, such as financial or other support granted by public authorities for the provision or updating of football stadiums or facilities;

56. Asks the Commission and the Member States to work closely with the international, European and national football governing bodies to reflect on the consequences of a possible liberalisation of the betting market and on mechanisms to secure the financing of sport in general and football in particular, and to look into measures which would protect the integrity of national and European football competitions;

57. Recognises the importance of trade marks in the sports industry except where they are used to impede the free movement of goods;

58. Notes that there is often a mismatch between the supply of, and demand for, tickets for major football events, which is beneficial to sponsors but detrimental to consumers; stresses that the interests of consumers should be fully taken into account when it comes to the distribution of tickets and that non- discriminatory and fair ticket sales should be guaranteed at all levels; acknowledges however that the distribution of tickets may, where appropriate, be restricted to members of supporters clubs, travel clubs or similar schemes, membership of which is available on a non-discriminatory basis;

Selling of television rights and competition law

59. Maintains that collective selling in all competitions is fundamental to protecting the financial solidarity model of European football; welcomes a public debate on and further investigation by the Commission into whether this model should be adopted across Europe for both pan-European and domestic competitions, as suggested by the Independent Sport Review 2006; in this respect, calls on the Commission to provide a detailed evaluation of the economic and sports impact of its relevant media rights decisions and the extent to which they have or have not worked;

60. Stresses that the sale of media rights vested in the European national football leagues should always comply with EC competition law, taking into account the specificity of sport, and be negotiated and completed in a transparent manner; but with that proviso believes that football broadcasts should be accessible to the widest possible range of people including through free-to-air channels;

61. Stresses that the merit of Article 3a of the current ‘Television without Frontiers Directive’ 97/36/EC (1) can hardly be overestimated;

62. Points out that it is vital for professional football that the revenues from television rights be distributed in a fair way that ensures solidarity between the professional and amateur games, and between com- peting clubs in all competitions; notes that the current distribution of television revenues in the UEFA Champions League to a significant degree reflects the size of the clubs' national television markets; notes that this favours big countries, thereby diminishing the power of clubs from smaller countries;

63. Therefore invites UEFA together with the Commission to continue to examine mechanisms to create a more competitive balance in this field by increased redistribution;

(1) OJ L 202, 30.7.1997, p. 60. C 27 E/240 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 64. Points out that the televised broadcasting of sports competitions is increasingly taking place on encrypted and pay TV channels, and that such competitions are thus becoming inaccessible to a number of consumers;

Doping

65. Recommends that the prevention of and fight against doping should constitute an important concern for the Member States; calls for a policy aimed at preventing and combating doping and stresses the need to fight irregularities through checks, research, testing, long-term monitoring by independent doctors and through education and, at the same time, prevention and training; calls on professional clubs to adopt a pledge to combat doping and to monitor compliance through internal checks;

* **

66. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the governments and the parliaments of the Member States, UEFA, FIFA, EPFL, European Club Forum and FIFPro.

— having regard to Rule 45 of its Rules of Procedure,

— having regard to the report of the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development (A6-0037/2007),

A. whereas the 2004 enlargement increased substantially the agricultural area (by around 27 %), the number of farms (by around 60 %), and the number of agricultural workers (by around 57 %) in the EU, thereby boosting its production potential and making agriculture more important; whereas higher yields per hectare of food and feed production will release sufficient areas of land for biomass production and this situation has contributed to a further differentiation of the European agricultural and rural fabric; whereas this process has become more marked and has deepened with the accession of Bulgaria and Romania,

B. whereas agriculture in the majority of the new Member States differs significantly from agriculture in the EU-15 in terms of production levels and structures and the size of farms, and is characterised by lower levels of efficiency, technological development and vertical and horizontal integration than in the old Member States,

C. whereas agriculture plays a greater economic and social role in the majority of the new Member States than in the EU-15, as the sector's contribution to the gross national income and the proportion of employees working in the sector are above the EU average,

D. whereas in certain new Member States subsistence and semi-subsistence agriculture are of social, cultural and environmental importance,

E. whereas the new Member States have been successfully and smoothly integrated into the internal market, contributing to a significant increase of the European agricultural and food trade; whereas the new Member States duly introduced and enforced veterinary, phytosanitary, food safety, common market organisation and other horizontal rules, so that it was not necessary to apply any specific safeguard measures,

(1) OJ L 161, 30.4.2004, p. 48. (2) OJ L 209, 11.8.2005, p. 1. Regulation as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 320/2006 (OJ L 58, 28.2.2006, p. 42). (3) OJ L 277, 21.10.2005, p. 1.

C 27 E/242 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 F. whereas the new Member States had to shoulder high social and economic costs in order to adapt to and integrate the common agricultural policy (CAP) rules and to adapt to the competitive environment in the EU; whereas the pre-accession funds only partially covered the costs of the adaptation and integration process before the accession; whereas the accession to the EU revealed the general economic and competitiveness problems of the new Member States; whereas the CAP has failed to contribute to solving these problems entirely,

G. whereas the CAP triggered considerable development and significant changes in the agriculture of the new Member States, and whereas some problems and tensions have arisen mainly due to the fact that the CAP rules do not support sufficiently the development of a balanced, sustainable agricultural sector, especially as far as animal husbandry, horticulture and up- and downstream integrations are concerned,

H. whereas the Act of Accession introduced a long phasing-in (nine years), with a low starting level (25 % of the level applicable in the EU) for the direct payments in the new Member States, though internal market and budgetary contribution rules fully apply to them; whereas cost and income levels in the new Member States do not justify this degree of differentiation, which results in unequal conditions for the new Member States' farmers in terms of competition,

I. whereas the problems which should be tackled in the new Member States are, primarily, those requiring structural changes to strengthen competitiveness; whereas CAP measures supporting incomes and guaranteeing prices significantly contributed to such strengthening,

J. whereas the Commission and the Council have been late or reluctant in understanding the new Mem- ber States' special problems and offering the necessary help (for example problems on the fruit and vegetables market, especially as regards soft fruits, cherries and apples, the unjustified ban on Polish exports by Russia and Ukraine, the modification and proposed abolition of maize intervention rules, honey imports from third countries),

K. whereas the clear shortage of producer-owners in the food-processing industry in the new Member States and abuse of the dominant position of distribution chains seriously limit the competitiveness of the farmers and their possibilities for cooperation and integration,

L. whereas 8 out of 10 new Member States chose the single area payment scheme (SAPS) for the direct payments,

M. whereas the Community budgetary assistance necessary for rural development in the new Member States was significantly higher than the available budgetary allocations for the 2004-2006 period, and at the same time implementation rules of the rural development programmes limited the dynamic utilisation of Community allocations; whereas those factors have considerably narrowed the impact of the CAP second pillar in the new Member States, and may persist also during the new financial framework,

Smooth integration, win-win situation

1. Welcomes the fact that the agricultural and food sector of the new Member States has been integrated thoroughly and smoothly into the common market of the European Union;

2. Stresses that, although the 2004 enlargement caused disturbances on the agricultural and food markets of certain new Member States, it contributed significantly to the development of well-established market relations in the 25 Member States as a whole;

3. Points out that the agriculture and food sector in both the new and old Member States benefited at least partially from the enlargement — stakeholders in the new Member States benefited from the higher level of agricultural support and from the increase of trade possibilities, while the food-processing industry and international trade in the old Member States progressed, and there was a higher level of investment and a rise in turnover in the retail sector, in particular in the run-up to enlargement; 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/243

Thursday 29 March 2007 4. Considers that overall the integration of the new Member States has been successful but that the situation is not always clear cut, as not all farms have seen their incomes rise; points out that the increase in purchase prices and in subsidies were partially offset by the significant rises in production costs (for example rises in the cost of fuel, energy, fertiliser, plant protection products and machinery);

5. Stresses the fact that enlargement has not increased the risk level as regards food safety and animal and plant health, and notes in this respect that the standards and efficiency of the work of the competent authorities in the new Member States are above the EU average in certain aspects;

6. Observes that the 2004 enlargement has not imposed an unbearable burden on the CAP budget and has not demanded significant changes as far as the EU budget is concerned but that decisions on freezing the market and direct payment budget and the 2007-2013 financial framework require a sacrifice based on the principle of solidarity from the EU-15 from 2007 onwards; also notes that, further to the European Council's decisions of December 2005, EU-15 producers suffered further cutbacks because of the accession of Bulgaria and Romania, over and above the decisions to implement policies, such as voluntary modulation, to strengthen the second pillar;

7. Laments the fact that higher quotas were not allocated for either the 2004 or 2007 enlargement, if only at the level initially planned;

Application of the CAP in the new Member States

8. Notes that the considerable differences between the agricultural sectors of the new Member States result in differences in the impact of the application of the CAP and in the scope and vigour of the challenges the new Member States are facing;

9. Notes that Community rules were not adequately adapted to the new conditions in certain markets (e.g. the markets in soft fruit and in starch) following the enlargement of the EU by 10 countries in 2004;

10. Notes that adaptation to the conditions and rules of the internal market and the application of the CAP — especially concerning veterinary, phytosanitary, food safety, common market organisation and other horizontal rules — have resulted in considerable efforts being required from farmers and administrations in the new Member States;

11. Considers that over a period of several months the Commission failed to attach adequate importance to the ban on the export of Polish agricultural products to Ukraine and Russia or to take effective action to bring it to an end;

12. Notes that, although EU-financed pre-accession programmes contributed to the preparation for the application of the CAP and twinning programmes proved to be useful, the original goals were only partly achieved and the efficiency of the Community measures was limited;

13. Recalls that the Special Accession Programme for Agriculture and Rural Development (Sapard) started with a considerable delay and the scope was also limited, mainly owing to the complicated requirements and lack of due-time decisions of the Commission and of authorities of the new Member States;

14. Observes that certain new Member States face considerable difficulties in implementing the Com- munity rural development programmes due to the complexity of their rules and the administrative burden of their management;

15. Reiterates that, as direct payments play a substantial role in the development and adaptation of the agricultural sector of the new Member States, their low level in the first years of the phasing-in period not only hindered the necessary adaptation but created unequal conditions for competition on the internal market as well, which many operators were economically unable to cope with; C 27 E/244 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 16. Stresses the important role of the rural development programmes both in establishing a new, market- oriented approach for farms — e.g. in processing and marketing their own products or in tourism — and in creating alternative sources of income for those who abandon basic agricultural production for economic reasons;

17. Notes that the different levels of the direct payments between the EU-10 and EU-15 have not ensured a level playing field, thus in several new Member States the producers lost ground even on their domestic markets, a situation to which, primarily, competition resulting from an increase in imports and exports from third countries due to the changed customs regime also contributed;

18. Notes that the Commission's reservations towards the new Member States with regard to the alleged surplus of stock on the day of accession to the EU and its threats to impose large financial penalties were unjustified in most cases and based on erroneous calculations; further notes that no disruption of the balance was observed on any of the agricultural markets that could have been the result of this alleged supply surplus;

19. Emphasises that the new Member States were forced to apply complementary national direct payments (CNDP, ‘top-ups’), which can be considered as a form of cofinancing and a quasi-renationalisation of Community direct payments, and that this led to serious political and economic difficulties in various new Member States as they imposed a serious burden on the national budgets and limited the possibility of applying state aid schemes;

20. Points out that, due to budgetary constraints, contrary to the general objectives and principles of the CAP and contrary to the modulation in the EU-15, the majority of the new Member States were forced to regroup a part of their Community rural development allocations for CNDP purposes, as allowed by the Act of Accession;

21. Refers to the opinion of some new Member States that fully decoupled, area-based payments do not contribute entirely to the balanced development and sustainability of their agriculture, and that sector pre- ferences and/or optional coupled payments could be necessary at least temporarily in certain Member States until 2013, and should be considered if requested; refers to the successful practice of the fully or partially coupled CNDP and temporary state aid measures in this respect;

22. Observes that the majority of new Member States would like to continue the application of the single area payment scheme (SAPS) as long as possible, since the switch to the Single Payment Scheme (SPS) means extremely high administrative and technical burdens and the SAPS is completely compatible with a future policy of decoupled payments;

23. Considers that it is necessary to implement cross-compliance rules and requirements concerning sound agricultural practices and environmental conditions both in the new and the old Member States; proposes to introduce the cross-compliance rules gradually, with full implementation by the end of the phasing-in period; also proposes that the new Member States be given the option of postponing the application of the cross-compliance rules until the end of the phasing-in of the direct payments; proposes further that the requirements concerning good agricultural and environmental conditions remain in force at least during the SAPS period as the majority of the new Member States may have difficulties in achieving conformity with the complex and costly cross-compliance rules;

24. Welcomes the fact that the Council has adopted the Commission's proposal on the extension of the SAPS until the end of 2010 and on the involvement of new Member States in the energy crop aid scheme;

25. Calls on the Commission, in the context of simplifying and rationalising the implementation of the CAP, the direct payment schemes and the rural development programmes, to take account of the problems faced primarily by the new Member States and to propose appropriate solutions without departing from the implementing rules for the CAP; 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/245

Thursday 29 March 2007 26. Stresses that the Commission should take the special problems and concerns of the new Member States more into account in its decisions within the framework of the CAP;

27. Expresses its serious concern regarding the Commission's recent proposal to completely abolish the intervention system in respect of maize from 2007; notes that the way the proposal was presented is contrary to the fundamental principles of the EU given the timing, the lack of a proper evaluation — especially as regards implications for the common organisation of the market in cereals and the area-based direct payments — and the lack of alternatives or transitional periods; is of the opinion that premature abolition of the maize intervention system would probably have serious consequences;

28. Believes that, in the spirit of the 2003 CAP reform, the introduction of area payments for soft fruit produced for processing should be considered along with the possibility of making them conditional on compulsory membership of food-processing groups or producers' organisations and the requirement to sell products under commercial contracts, which could contribute to increasing competitiveness in the soft fruit sector and improving the situation for growers in Member States, in particular Poland;

29. Considers that further changes are necessary in the agricultural production and rural fabric of the new Member States and emphasises that CAP rules and Community aid have to assist this procedure; stresses that it is crucial to effect these necessary changes in a cushioned way, as the agriculture-bound rural society and economy of the new Member States could not tolerate too rapid and drastic changes in their production and employment structure;

Future of the CAP in the enlarged EU

30. Points out that the present CAP is unsuitable to manage a substantial part of agricultural and agriculture-related problems in the enlarged EU; considers that the decoupling of the direct payments, forced by the World Trade Organisation (WTO), increases in general the market orientation of European agriculture but that decoupled direct payments do not contribute fully to the establishment of a sustainable agricultural sector and rural society, either in the new Member States or in a considerable part of the EU-15; points out that either additional measures or tailor-made application of the direct payments are necessary;

31. Takes the view that, especially in Member States and regions where specialised farms play a decisive role in the agriculture, the present system of direct payments promotes arable cropping too significantly, does not assist properly the establishment of sustainable animal husbandry and does not promote and facilitate the necessary structural changes;

32. Notes that, in the case of some new Member States, in some sectors, the allocated quota levels led to the freezing or even decline of agricultural production, and that the fact that decoupled payments were linked to the lower level of quotas constituted a further subsidies disadvantage for the new Member States, in addition to the phasing-in; also notes that the problem occurs also in some of the old Member States;

33. Believes that the achievement of the CAP objectives is also hindered in the new Member States by the insufficient level of rural development financing, by the lack of an efficient risk and crisis management system and by excessively strict Community rules on state aid;

34. Stresses that the CAP must be kept on the Community level in the framework of a reformed CAP and any renationalisation of the CAP should be avoided; stresses, however, that specific measures based on the principle of subsidiarity have to be applied; takes the view that it is necessary to revise the scope, objectives, goals, and principles of the CAP, including the European agricultural model, taking into consideration the objectives and needs of agriculture, rural areas, farmers, consumers and the entire society in the enlarged EU of 27 countries in order to determine the necessary financial resources and ensure their proper, equitable and fully justified allocation; C 27 E/246 Official Journal of the European Union EN 31.1.2008

Thursday 29 March 2007 35. Emphasises that all possible factors (e.g. consequences of earlier financial decisions, CAP reforms, experiences of the new Member States, the diversity and variety of European agriculture) have to be duly taken into consideration in the future reform of the CAP, particularly during the CAP ‘health check’ and the mid-term review of the 2007-2013 financial framework in 2008-2009;

36. Stresses further that it is imperative to avoid decisions forced only by attempts to reduce the level of Community funding or maintain the financial status quo among Member States;

37. Considers that biomass and bioenergy production will play a strategic role in the future of the agricultural sector in the EU; calls in this respect for appropriate EU funding to promote the production of biomass on land no longer required for growing food and feed; recalls in this respect the high capacities of the new Member States, and the increased overall production potential of the enlarged EU;

38. Underlines that fulfilment of the specific needs of the Member States and regions, including problems and difficulties in the new Member States, should be maintained on the basis of subsidiarity with the following, tailor-made instruments:

(a) introduction of a revised system of direct payments, including the introduction of new measures such as voluntary recoupling options, to be used only by those Member States which consider this necessary to meet social, employment and sustainability objectives; extension of the payments to new sectors and new beneficiaries (for example soft fruits destined for processing), within the revised system of national financial envelopes and full Community financing,

(b) introduction of additional, optional, regional or temporary market measures with Community financing,

(c) application of the national envelope system from the EU budget in the sectors to be reformed (wine, fruit and vegetables),

(d) improved support to producer organisations, strong encouragement for them and repeal of national legislation which hampers them,

(e) promoting cross-border cooperation between producer organisations,

(f) introduction of an efficient agricultural crisis and risk management system with Community financial assistance, paid from the national envelopes,

(g) strengthening the internal market with common quality standards, marketing, competition, food safety, environmental and animal welfare rules,

(h) reinforcement of the rural development system and its funding,

(i) increase of the flexibility of the state aid rules (e.g. widening the scope of block exemptions and increase of the ‘de minimis’ level);

39. Considers that WTO compatibility has to be ensured during the Doha Round negotiations as part of the EU offer on reducing trade barriers or in exchange for agreeing with the maintenance of internal support levels of the other WTO members;

40. Stresses that additional customs duties imposed under the special safeguard clause (SSG) could be a useful means of protecting sensitive sectors of the Community market, including those in the new Member States, from surplus imports or from imports at excessively low prices; calls on the Commission to negoti- ate in the current WTO round the possibility of making appropriate changes to the scope of the SSG in the EU's list of concessions; points out that some of the new Member States had the opportunity to apply the SSG in sensitive agricultural sectors not on the EU's current list of concessions; 31.1.2008 EN Official Journal of the European Union C 27 E/247

Thursday 29 March 2007 41. Expects that the future CAP will not only take into consideration the needs of the enlarged EU but that it will also become easier to manage, that it will reduce the administrative burden of farmers and national authorities and will support the market-oriented, environmentally sound production of safe products, while ensuring the future of sustainable agriculture;

42. Invites the Commission, the Member States and all stakeholders to conduct a lively discussion and submit forward-looking proposals in order to build a sustainable future of the agriculture in the enlarged EU;

43. Welcomes the Commission's intention to draw up a long-term vision of the future of the CAP after 2013 that: would allow it to benefit from the exceptional opportunity for expansion presented by the forecast that growth in global agri-food trade will be twice as fast as total expected growth in world trade over the coming three decades; would seek to ensure that agriculture development is uniform throughout the EU; and, through the combined efforts of the EU-15 and the new Member States, would enable agriculture to fulfil its role in terms of production and other activities;

44. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council and Commission, and to the parliaments and governments of the Member States.

Hepatitis C

Declaration of the European Parliament on hepatitis C

The European Parliament,

— having regard to Rule 116 of its Rules of Procedure,

A. whereas 12 million persons in Europe are infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV),

B. whereas HCV is an urgent issue, being a disease which attacks the liver and leads to chronic hepatitis C causing cirrhosis, liver failure or liver cancer, thus increasing the need for transplantation,

C. whereas as a ‘silent killer’ and ‘sniper’ disease, HCV is often not detected so that many patients remain undiagnosed while the diagnosed patients frequently suffer from stigmatisation,

1. C.alls on the Commission and Council to: — recognise hepatitis C as an urgent public health issue and identify priority actions in programmes of future Council presidencies; — adopt a Council recommendation on hepatitis C screening, ensuring early diagnosis and wider access to treatment and care; — respond to the recommendations of its resolution of 6 July 2006 on protecting European healthcare workers from blood-borne infections due to needlestick injuries (1); — facilitate further research on treatment for hepatitis C patients co-infected with HIV and/or hepatitis B under the 7th Research Framework Programme;

2. Instructs its President to forward this declaration, together with the names of the signatories, to the Council and the Commission.
