A5-0088/2001

European Parliament resolution on the institution of the petition at the dawn of the 21st century (2000/2026(INI))

The European Parliament,

having regard to Articles 21 and 194 of the EC Treaty establishing the right of petition,

having regard to its decision of 9 March 1994 on the regulations and general conditions governing the performance of the Ombudsman’s activities (1),

having regard to the 1989 Interinstitutional Agreement on the right of petition (2),

having regard to Article 10 of the EC Treaty on cooperation between the Community institutions and the Member States,

having regard to the judgment of the European Court of Justice of 30 March 1995 on interinstitutional cooperation between the European Parliament and the Council (Case C-65/93) (3),

having regard to the Opinion of its Legal Service of 23 November 2000 on proposals by the Com- mittee on Petitions aimed at improving its working methods (4),

having regard to Annex VI to its Rules of Procedure establishing the powers and responsibilities of standing committees,

having regard to the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union adopted on 7 December 2000 (5),

having regard to Rule 163 of its Rules of Procedure,

having regard to the report of the Committee on Petitions (A5-0088/2001),

A. whereas the Treaty on European Union grants all European citizens, either individually or collectively, and any natural or legal person residing or having its registered office in a Member State, the right to address a petition to the European Parliament on a matter which comes within the Community’s field of activity and which affects them directly,

B. whereas every European citizen also has the right to bring a complaint before the European Ombuds- man against any case of maladministration,

C. whereas this right must be made easier and quicker to exercise and more effective and direct in its outcome, in accordance with the values of pluralist, participative, citizen-centred democracy which must inform its actions and those of its Member States and the other institutions and bodies of the Union,

Tuesday 15 May 2001 D. whereas petitions received by Parliament and complaints to the Commission and the Ombudsman make a significant contribution to monitoring the implementation of Community law whenever they report violations of, or failures to comply with, Community law or bad or slow administration at either Community or national level,

E. whereas its Committee on Petitions, aware of the responsibilities incumbent upon it, wishes, in agreement and synergy with the bodies concerned, to shorten the time spent on, and the deadlines set for, processing petitions, thus making the procedure and its outcome quicker, more transparent and more participatory,

F. wishing to make full use of the chances and opportunities offered by the new information technologies in the interest, first and foremost, of petitioners and also of all the other bodies and people involved,

G. whereas over the last decade the practice of interinstitutional cooperation has significantly increased, including in the field of dealing with complaints and petitions submitted to Parliament, the Commis- sion and the Ombudsman,

1. Draws attention to the particular importance it attaches to the institution of the petition and to the role of the European Ombudsman, which enable it to remain attentive to European public opinion and its expectations and to deepen its parliamentary scrutiny of the shortcomings and inadequacies of existing regulations and discretionary measures taken without the slightest regard for the citizen;

2. Takes the view that the exercise of the European citizen’s right to petition Parliament and the Ombudsman constitutes an instrument with which to exercise control after the event over the application of Community law to specific cases, making it possible to condemn cases of failure to apply Community law, in particular violations of the principle of non-discrimination;

3. Takes the view that Article 21 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights should be taken into consideration in determining when the principle of non-discrimination has been violated;

4. Takes the view that its duty to take action on petitions received, which correlates with European citizens’ right of petition, can be exercised all the more effectively if it is accompanied and served by clear, precise and transparent legal and administrative rules, which define, inter alia, the cooperation that Parlia- ment is entitled to require from the Council and Commission and, through their mediation, from the Member States and national governments;

5. Calls on the Council and Commission in consequence to review the 1989 Interinstitutional Agree- ment linking them to the European Parliament in order to shorten the time taken to deal with petitions and define a binding, clear and coherent framework for the cooperation with Parliament which is essential in this area;

6. Stresses the need for the bodies administering petitions and complaints to the European Ombudsman to equip themselves in the long term with a codified set of administrative and procedural rules applicable throughout the Union, so that procedures are made quicker and more transparent, and the petitions process can be completed more effectively while adhering to the law and the principle of legal safety; this does not preclude the need to have recourse in future to new legal instruments based on the general principles applicable in the Member States;

7. Stresses that the petition, as a right of European citizens enshrined in the Treaties, whose full exercise Parliament must ensure, concerns, in different degrees, many bodies and internal services of the Union, which must all play their part within the limits of their competences to address the grievances raised by these petitioning Parliament;

8. Stresses that the powers and responsibilities of the Petitions Committee, as defined in Annex VI to Parliament’s Rules of Procedure, are to be adapted in the light of the revised Interinstitutional Agreement on the right of petition; calls on its Secretary-General to submit proposals which will facilitate optimum synergy among the services concerned in order to ensure that the right of petition is as effective as possible; 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/91

Tuesday 15 May 2001 9. Expresses a preference for the setting up, in accordance with the procedures in force, of:

(a) a European network linking its Petitions Committee with those of its national counterparts, the Euro- pean Ombudsman and the national and local ombudsmen;

(b) a meeting of these bodies once during every legislature;

(c) an annual seminar to assess cooperation between the European Parliament, the Council and the Com- mission on the basis of the new Interinstitutional Agreement;

10. Regards as unacceptable the delays that sometimes occur and the obstructiveness of some authorities as regards making available information and clarification on the content of petitions to the Com- mittee on Petitions and the European Ombudsman; therefore considers that, in urgent cases and after having given the offending authorities sufficient warning, the Committee on Petitions can make this obstructive behaviour public before the procedure to refer the matter to the European judicial authorities begins;

11. Considers that there must be no delay in making optimum use of the new information technologies in the interests of petitioners and of all those using these essential data-processing tools in their various capacities, in particular through better access and monitoring of petitions by means of databases, while fully complying with the rules on the protection of privacy and confidential information;

12. Stresses the need for a rigorous assessment of the human resources necessary for the efficient consideration of petitions presented to Parliament;

13. Stresses also that the processing of petitions by the various services must be speeded up, which, together with measures adopted earlier, should make it possible for its Petitions Committee better to focus its efforts;

14. Stresses the importance of further consideration of the question of language policy in the Commit- tee on Petitions, inter alia in the light of enlargement;

15. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Commission and Council.

(10c) In accordance with Article 1(c) of Directive 2000/ 60/EC, the future reviews of the list of priority substances under Article 16(4) of that Directive will contribute to the cessation of emissions, discharges and losses of all hazardous substances by 2020 by progressively adding further substances to the list.

Amendment 13 Recital 10d (new)

(10d) During review and adaptation of the list of priority substances, in addition to the further developed COMMPS procedure, account should be taken as appropriate of the results of the reviews under Council Directive 91/414/EEC of 15 July 1991 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (1), Council Regu- lation (EEC) No 793/93 of 23 March 1993 on the evaluation and control of the risks of existing substances (2), European Parliament and Council Directive 98/8/EC of 16 February 1998 concerning the placing of biocidal products on the market (3) and possibly other scientific information from the review of existing or new directives, in particular within the framework of legislation on chemicals. Duplicate reviews of substances must be avoided in view of the costs involved. In adapting the lists it must be possible both to set a lower priority ranking and also to place a substance in a higher category.

Tuesday 15 May 2001 having regard to the conclusions of the Santa Maria da Feira European Council meeting of 19 and 20 June 2000 on the follow-up to the Lisbon European Council meeting,

having regard to Rule 47(1) of its Rules of Procedure,

having regard to the report of the Committee on Culture, Youth, Education, the Media and Sport and the opinions of the Committee on Industry, External Trade, Research and Energy, the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs and the Committee on Women’s Rights and Equal Opportunities (A5-0299/2000),

A. whereas we are now living in an information society, which is an inescapable reality and is in constant development, and in which new technologies have an increasingly influential role,

B. whereas the Lisbon European Council concluded that every citizen must be equipped with the skills needed to live and work in the existing and future information society; whereas it is particularly important to ensure that the education sector has the resources it requires to enable young people to master the new knowledge and communication tools and to adjust to the extremely fast pace of technological change; whereas the eLearning initiative (an educational offshoot of the eEurope initiative) was introduced with this in mind,

C. whereas the new link between information and communication technology (ICT) and the education sector forms part of a broader process which the Lisbon European Council described as the establishment of a ‘learning society’, based on the desire to ensure that every member of European society takes part in lifelong learning,

D. whereas, regardless of the limits imposed by the principle of subsidiarity, citizens should be offered freely available services created by the European Union institutions and providing them with easier access to programmes, methods and content in the field of information and communication technologies,

E. whereas there is a genuine consensus among the Member States as to the vital need to ensure that all educational establishments in Europe are given access to new technologies (in view of the wide range of opportunities which they offer) and to ensure the spread and, thereby, a genuine democratisation of the ‘digital culture’,

F. whereas Europe is lagging some way behind the United States in terms of the use of ICT in educational establishments; whereas in today’s society it is essential for every European citizen to have a basic understanding of new technologies so as to ensure that Europe can remain competitive and continue to innovate in the future and thereby retain its position as a leading world power,

G. whereas the development of ICT should cover all aspects, including hardware, software and quality content indicators,

H. whereas, although it was originally based mainly on economic and agricultural concerns, the European Union can no longer focus exclusively on such matters and must now initiate a drive towards a Europe based on knowledge, culture and values; whereas, in general, the concept of European citizen- ship has yet to be given concrete form and the best way of doing so is to give the education sector more of a European dimension,

I. whereas new technologies have many advantages and offer new educational benefits which can be used to fill in the gaps left by traditional methods of learning; whereas those technologies must be used to complement traditional methods rather than clash with them,

J. whereas, if optimum use is to be made of new technologies in education, students must be taught how to search for and manage content (’being taught how to learn’), rather than memorising it,

K. whereas ICT are instruments or supports and must be supplemented by policies on the content, uses and quality of education, whose management should be the responsibility of the authorities or the educational establishments, 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/145

Tuesday 15 May 2001 L. whereas information and communication technology can help to improve teaching and training since it can be used continuously and repeatedly, at the user’s own pace, and encourages an interactive approach and active learning, which is based on curiosity, discovery and experimentation; whereas above all it makes educational establishments more open to the outside world by fostering a desire to learn foreign languages and building bridges between what is happening in school and what is happening outside, including in other countries (networks for the exchange of information with museums, libraries, research institutes or other schools),

M. whereas new technologies can be of great help to people with handicaps or learning difficulties; whereas modern technology can enable certain people (such as the children of itinerant workers, the inhabitants of remote areas and the elderly), for whom full-time attendance at traditional educational establishments is impossible, to train and learn on a regular basis,

N. whereas equal access to new technologies must be ensured in accordance with the principle of fair- ness, so that no one is deprived of information and knowledge; whereas, on the contrary, new technologies should help to strengthen social cohesion,

O. whereas the introduction of new technologies in schools provides the education sector with an opportunity to adjust to the realities and needs of the labour market and thus to provide young people with an education that will be of use to them both in their daily lives and in their future professional life,

P. whereas equipping schools with computers is not an end to itself and whereas a computer is first and foremost a tool a teaching aid and therefore cannot take the place of, or even compete with, the special relationship that exists between pupils and teachers and which is based on physical presence and dialogue,

Q. whereas the ultimate goal of education is to pass on knowledge and know-how that will enable students to become genuinely independent; whereas this applies in particular to the use of new technologies; whereas the presence and guidance of qualified staff who receive specialised, extensive and constantly updated training is required in order to ensure that the use of new technologies for educational purposes is beneficial,

R. whereas, owing to the wide range of opportunities provided by new technologies and the boundless information available on the Internet, the effectiveness of using ICT in the education sector can only be maximised if the equipment and content made available are reliable and relevant and the necessary preparatory work has been carried out beforehand,

S. whereas the introduction of ICT affords an opportunity for Member States to conduct an overall review of the education process (curricula, school timetables, the methods used to test knowledge, etc.), with particular reference to priorities and resources,

T. whereas the information society entails both risks and major opportunities which call for the establishment of a specific regulatory framework, particularly with a view to protecting minors against content which is not aimed at them,

1. Notes the Commission’s report and the various causes for concern which it highlights, such as the fact that Europe is lagging behind the United States in terms of innovation and technological advance and that most educational establishments in the EU are still seriously under-equipped;

2. Calls on the Commission and the Member States to make further efforts to bridge the gulf between the European Union and United States regarding the use and command of IT in education and business;

3. Welcomes the recommendations in the Commission’s report on designing tomorrow’s education and promoting innovation with new technologies, especially as regards promoting innovation, developing quality on the supply side, and strengthening social cohesion;

4. Welcomes the progress made in the Member States’ national action plans for introducing information and communication technology (ICT) in schools; C 34 E/146 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Tuesday 15 May 2001 5. Notes that in the employment policy guidelines for 2000 the Member States adopted the objective of equipping their schools with computers and facilitating Internet access by the end of 2002; calls on Member States to define these general objectives by means of practical quantitative and qualitative indicators;

6. Welcomes the stress placed by the Commission on the vital need to promote and foster linguistic and cultural diversity when new technologies are introduced into schools, so as to avoid a situation in which some languages hold sway over others, given that genuine equality between official languages is one of the founding principles of the Union;

7. Welcomes the Council’s and Commission’s recent initiatives to promote ICT in schools and urges the Commission to monitor closely the effectiveness of the relevant measures, the progress made and the generalisation of best practice;

8. Asks the Commission and the Member States to ensure that women and men have universal access to new technologies, with lower access charges, greater cost efficiency and improved diversity and quality of services, since it is essential to preserve the original features of each country and to reduce disparities in access to ICT while promoting European content and access to it;

9. Notes that there is a wide disparity among the Member States as regards their capacities for exploit- ing new technologies in schools and their opportunities to do so, and that an effort must be made to reduce, and even eliminate, the disparity in this area;

10. Calls on the Commission to ensure that women and men have equal access to general and vocational training leading to careers in the information society;

11. Observes that in order to create a socially just information society, access to information and communications technologies should be open to citizens of all socio-economic strata and age groups; calls on Member States and the Commission, in this connection:

to promote measures to facilitate access to information and communications technologies for all pupils, including outside regular education;

to promote exchanges of know-how concerning how to use ICT between pupils and parents;

in developing teaching software, to devote special attention to the specific needs of children with learning difficulties or disabilities;

12. Deplores the fact that the Commission’s report considers education solely from the traditional angle of children and young people learning in educational establishments, thereby ignoring the essential role played by lifelong learning, which is aimed at adults and all those outside the traditional learning environment who wish to acquire knowledge and receive training and which is wholly in keeping with the goal set by the Lisbon European Council of establishing a ‘learning society’;

13. Calls for new technologies to be made available to all citizens, including those no longer of school age and no longer on the labour market, through the creation of ‘electronic communication centres’ situ- ated in local authority areas in every region of Europe;

14. Notes the Commission recommendation that points to the regrettable lack of studies conducted on the use made of ICT in schools, and calls therefore on the relevant bodies to develop and use accurate and appropriate indicators which enable actual practice to be thoroughly assessed and monitored;

15. Calls on the Commission to set the immediate objective of defining the scientific correlation between information and communication technologies and school results by commissioning studies and taking any effective action so that the investment made produces measurable results; 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/147

Tuesday 15 May 2001 16. Stresses that the necessary introduction of ICT into the school system must not lead to information overload, that it should be combined with pupils’ need for free time and the cultivation of imagination and creativity, and should take account in every way of the psychological aspects of their age and help develop communication within the school group;

17. Calls on the Commission to include the training of teachers in the use of ICT as one of the priority areas in the programmes on lifelong training financed from the Structural Funds;

18. Proposes that educational and teaching systems should be promoted not only through public funds but also through private investment in new technologies in order to speed up the introduction of these new systems;

19. Calls on the Commission, with due regard for the principle of subsidiarity, to assist Member States with implementation of the eLearning initiative and, inter alia, to make their work easier by means of a network for the exchange of experience between Member States;

20. Calls on the Commission to put forward a plan for making optimum use of public investment in ICT; this plan should cover the problems associated with digital libraries and public points of access to digital media with a view to reducing inequalities and better serving the public interest and the interests of European citizens;

21. Points out that a quarter of the jobs created in the 1990s related to activities associated with the information society and that this trend on the employment market has persisted; consequently students need to be properly prepared for a labour market dominated by new technologies;

22. Calls for substantial investment in the education sector so it will be possible to respond to rapid change in the area of new technology;

23. Requests that the Commission, in order to show its support for the Bologna agreements on the creation of a university area of knowledge, should promote joint programmes for the development of ICT, in order to encourage partnerships between different universities to disseminate common knowledge and the voluntary award of the same qualifications;

24. Calls on the Commission to develop programmes to encourage knowledge mobility, scientific and technical cooperation, and technology transfer, and to promote the convergence of ICT languages and supports;

25. Calls on the Commission, together with the Member States, to make use of Community instruments and programmes in pursuing the jointly established goals; the Member States are therefore encouraged to use their Structural Fund allocations for the purpose of equipping schools with computer facilities and training teachers, while a contribution from the educational, cultural and research programmes could be envisaged;

26. Calls on the European Union and the Member States to encourage training in the new technology sectors and to give businesses adequate technical and financial support to deal with the rapid change in the ICT field, including in particular SMEs, micro-businesses and independent skilled workers, as called for by the Multiannual Programme for Enterprise and Entrepreneurship (2001-2005);

27. Stresses the importance of encouraging ICT in education as well as in business so as to meet the challenges of the new economy, combat social exclusion and enable certain regions of the European Union to catch up in their economic development;

28. Points out that ICT can create a transnational social and economic area, a factor that must be taken into account in economic, social, education, training and work policies;

29. Calls on the Council and the Commission to set up state or public information and communication networks for education to ensure that there are technological infrastructures; C 34 E/148 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Tuesday 15 May 2001 30. Calls on the Commission and Council, in accordance with Article 158 (ex Article 130a) of the Treaty, which lays down the objective of ‘reducing disparities between the levels of development of the various regions and the backwardness of the least favoured regions or islands, including rural areas’, to introduce a programme financed from the Structural Funds setting up a European educational network of information and communication technologies, which public and private educational centres can join voluntarily, in order to create public networks of information and communication infrastructures;

31. Recommends that the Commission undertake a survey of the ICT equipment and how it is used for teaching purposes in the various countries, as this is the only way to complement and allocate aid for learning in information and communication technologies;

32. Calls on the Member States to make the provision of basic and, in particular, continuing training in new technologies compulsory for teachers and future teachers (which is not currently the case in over half the countries of Europe), so as to ensure that all teachers have the skills they require to use new technologies for teaching purposes while taking a critical approach to them, in particular the Internet (teaching young people to distinguish between information and advertising, between fiction and reality, between the virtual and the real, etc.);

33. Encourages the Member States to implement priority measures for less-favoured areas and vulner- able or disadvantaged groups (such as women, the elderly, minorities, the disabled and the low-skilled), involving the provision of carefully targeted assistance aimed at enabling them to attain satisfactory skills levels and ensuring that resources are allocated more effectively;

34. Calls on the Member States to promote the conversion of teaching and training centres into centres for acquiring knowledge that are versatile and accessible to all, as recommended in the conclusions of the Lisbon European Council, and to encourage libraries to play to the full their key role in providing universal access to networks and multimedia content;

35. Requests that the Council and Commission, in the interests of all those who wish to pursue learning in Europe, whatever their nationality and status, develop minimum quantity and quality indicators relating to minimum hardware and software requirements, and the quality and appropriateness of content;

36. Calls for the education sector itself to focus on teaching systems, using new technologies and quality content, as a basis for learning and knowledge;

37. Calls on the Commission to support the production and dissemination of high-quality educational software under the Community programmes relating to research and training and further training;

38. Urges the Member States to foster the establishment of links between educational establishments and social bodies and firms with a view to the joint development of relevant, high-quality software which meets the real needs of learners and can be used effectively in continuous learning, while taking care to ensure that such a partnership does not undermine the objectiveness and reliability of the content;

39. Stresses that the introduction of ICT should not only be a process emanating ‘from above’, but should take place in interaction with society owing to the extremely wide range of circumstances and the complexity of the problems involved; considers, therefore, that parents associations, teachers, psycholog- ists, etc. should be encouraged to take part in that process;

40. Stresses that, while the Member States have set up varying strategies and policies seeking to promote the dissemination of new technologies in education, and training in their use, cooperation among themselves and with the European Union remains an essential precondition for their success;

41. Calls on the Member States to give tax incentives to suppliers of multimedia equipment and services who offer special rates to educational establishments; 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/149

Tuesday 15 May 2001 42. Welcomes the Commission’s intention to promote fast Internet access for students, and hopes that it will make an effort to promote coordination with the European Research Area;

43. Calls on the Member States to take action to bring down telecommunications prices, with particular reference to the cost of Internet access, as recommended by the Santa Maria da Feira European Council;

44. Calls on the Community’s financial bodies, such as the European Investment Bank (EIB), to contribute to the efforts being made by the Member States to provide equipment and training;

45. Considers that the problem of adapting schools to the extremely rapid advances and changes in ICT should be studied in the light of budget, technological infrastructure and educational continuity;

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

17. Teaching and learning Towards the learning society

A5-0302/2000

European Parliament resolution on the Commission report Implementation of the White Paper ‘Teaching and learning Towards the learning society’ (COM(1999) 750 C5-0145/2000 2000/2088(COS))

The European Parliament,

having regard to the Commission report (COM(1999) 750 C5-0145/2000),

having regard to Article 149(4) and Article 150(4) of the EC Treaty,

having regard to its resolution of 12 March 1997 on the Commission’s White Paper on education and training ‘Teaching and learning towards the learning society’ (1),

having regard to its resolution of 13 May 1998 on the communication from the Commission ‘Towards a Europe of Knowledge’ (2),

having regard to the conclusions of the Lisbon European Council of 23-24 March 2000;

having regard to Rule 47(1) of its Rules of Procedure,

having regard to the report of the Committee on Culture, Youth, Education, the Media and Sport and the opinions of the Committee on Industry, External Trade, Research and Energy and the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs (A5-0302/2000),

A. whereas the emergence of the knowledge society and economy has underlined the link between education and training and economic growth,

B. whereas the purpose of the Commission’s efforts in the education sector should be to promote access to knowledge and contribute to equality of opportunity, as well as to create a favourable environment for innovation and employment and to increase the European Union’s competitiveness by bringing educational institutions closer to the world of work,

C. whereas a necessity of the single market is a flexible labour force with students, young people and adult workers adequately prepared and advised to meet the labour needs across the single market,

D. whereas the risk of social exclusion is being increased by the new technologies, with the result that the gulf between those with and those without qualifications is constantly widening,

(1) OJ C 115, 14.4.1997, p. 85. (2) OJ C 167, 1.6.1998, p. 136. C 34 E/150 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Tuesday 15 May 2001 E. whereas educational systems must be accessible to all; whereas education and training must lay the foundations for equal opportunities,

F. whereas rapid new technological changes the new knowledge economy mean that everyone must be given the opportunity to acquire and assimilate knowledge throughout their entire life; whereas, in the course of the debate on implementing the White Paper ‘Teaching and learning Towards the learning society,’ a connection which should be established with lifelong learning,

G. whereas there is great scope for using the new information and communication technologies for educational purposes, including the networking of schools and training establishments, developing innovative teaching methods and materials, language teaching, and for projects to tackle illiteracy and underachievement,

H. whereas one of the fundamental characteristics of the EU is its cultural and linguistic diversity; whereas respect for and promotion of cultural and linguistic diversity are EU objectives,

I. whereas the 1995 White Paper ‘Teaching and learning towards the learning society’ was an ambitious attempt to harness existing Community instruments to encourage the acquisition of new knowledge, to bring schools and the business sector closer together, to combat social exclusion, to promote proficiency in Community languages and to encourage Member States to treat capital investment and investment in training on an equal footing,

J. whereas the White Paper played a useful role in helping to raise awareness of the emergence of the knowledge economy,

K. whereas, nevertheless, the White Paper paid too little attention to the importance of training in, and updating of, information technology skills, or to the ability actively to assimilate and adapt such skills,

L. whereas combating social exclusion is primarily the task of Member States and whereas Community instruments can play only a complementary role,

M. whereas, despite the Council resolution of March 1995 and despite the objectives of the European Year of Languages 2001, proficiency of all school-leavers in three Community languages unfortunately has not been achieved; whereas this is, in part, a consequence of the low priority attached to language teaching in the educational systems of a number of the Member States,

N. whereas equal treatment of capital investment and investment in training is an important objective, but one towards which very little concrete progress has been made,

O. whereas, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity, the Community should take action only if and in so far as the objectives of the proposed action cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States,

P. whereas the White Paper failed to set out clear objectives, a demonstration of the ‘European added- value’ of the actions proposed to attain these objectives, performance indicators to measure progress towards the attainment of these objectives, or means for assessing pilot projects and for changing existing measures in the light of these assessments,

Q. whereas the White Paper was not accompanied by significant and genuinely additional funding to help to attain the objectives it set out,

R. whereas, in the interest of transparency and in line with the Commission’s accountability to the Par- liament as the democratically elected representative body of the citizens of Europe and as the budgetary authority, it is important that it report on time on the action it has taken and in language that can be readily understood by citizens,

1. Respects the ambitious goals set out in the White Paper;

2. Regrets the absence of genuinely additional funding to help realise these goals; 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/151

Tuesday 15 May 2001 3. Regrets that the Commission has not succeeded, after five years:

in providing a clear overall picture showing whether or not the objectives financed by it have led to any practical results; regrets that the Commission’s report, even as an interim report, is incomplete, as it lacks a measure of the efficiency of the actions implemented, as it neither contains information on the financial efforts deployed nor a qualitative assessment of results,

does not take account of the contribution of the European Social Fund the European Union’s most powerful instrument in the field of vocational training to the development of lifelong learning,

provides no information about progress made regarding the incorporation of lifelong learning into policies and practice at the Member State and regional government level,

does not contain sufficient information on measures for specific target groups such as women, elderly workers and disabled people;

4. Points out, in relation to enlargement, that it will be essential to assist applicant countries in developing their education and training systems to enable them to assimilate the acquis communautaire;

5. Welcomes the actions taken by the Commission to realise Objective I (encourage the acquisition of new knowledge) in the 1995 White Paper, but regrets the lack of attention to training in information technology, in particular the training of school and university teachers;

6. Notes the importance in the information society and economy of competence in information-technology skills; notes the shortage of skilled ‘new economy’ workers in Europe; underlines the need for greater investment in training in information-technology skills particularly for those involved in training and teaching students in this area;

7. Emphasises that such training must not be a one-off affair, but rather must be updated regularly;

8. Welcomes the initiatives taken under Objective II, on bringing schools and the business sector closer together, and calls for further efforts to enable a growing number of students to benefit from effective business experience, both in their home country and abroad, to choose the best models by a process of evaluation;

9. Repeats the point that the business experience which students acquire is an important way of training tomorrow’s entrepreneurs, and calls for a greater amount of information to be distributed on opportunities of this kind and for the results regarding employment to be published;

10. Supports the measures taken under Objective III to combat social exclusion, but requests further data to demonstrate their ‘European added-value’;

11. Calls on the Commission to provide further details on the funding of projects for second chance schools;

12. Notes the steady expansion in ‘second chance schools’ for young people and adults; stresses that, second chance schools must try to ensure that young people are reintegrated into the mainstream education system;

13. Reiterates its conviction that knowledge of languages other than one’s mother tongue is not only a valuable practical skill but also a means of gaining access to different cultures; notes the finding of Eurostat that less than half of all European adults can take part in a conversation in a language other than their mother tongue; believes that greater priority should be given to language teaching in the educational systems of the Member States, so as to ensure that every school-leaver is proficient in at least one Euro- pean language other than his mother tongue, whilst maintaining the goal, set out in the Council resolution of March 1995, of proficiency in two European languages other than the school-leaver’s mother tongue(s);

14. Points out that the report must contain comparative data on the ‘number of applications’ for projects concerned with the less widely-used and taught languages in the European Union and the number of programmes finally approved for these languages; C 34 E/152 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Tuesday 15 May 2001 15. Recognises the importance of Objective V, on treating capital investment and investment in training on an equal basis; calls on the Commission to provide businesses with the necessary support, in the form of advice, to enable them to pursue this objective; notes, however, that it is necessary to include information on the projects implemented under Objective V and to provide further details on the contribution of these projects to the attainment of the White Paper objectives;

16. Considers that ‘paying heed to the individual’s expectations and needs’ and the individualisation of educational projects are very positive factors, but stresses that they must be linked to the labour market and labour market trends so that they can be realistic and useful for future employability;

17. Calls on the Commission to examine the extent to which the student careers advisory services and employment counselling services in the Member States exchange information with each other and meet the needs of their clients to have adequate careers counselling about employment possibilities as well as opportunities for work experience in the various Member States;

18. Calls on the Commission and on the Member States to acknowledge the economic, political and cultural importance of lifelong learning and to integrate it in their human resource development, education and training and social inclusion programmes; calls further on the Commission to promote lifelong learning among groups threatened by social exclusion and among minority language groups; calls further on the Member States to step up their efforts to eradicate illiteracy;

19. Reiterates the importance of giving people with disabilities the support they need to participate in the mainstream education system and calls on the Commission to address this in all future initiatives;

20. Considers that in the case of groups which have major difficulties in securing employment, people who are marginalised, the disabled, etc., education and training constitute the main means of integration into working life, both as a way of improving their prospects of finding work and as a means of escaping from social exclusion by developing an awareness and appreciation of their own capabilities;

21. Calls on the Commission and Member States to promote the learning of sign language as a means of overcoming barriers between the hearing-impaired and those with normal hearing;

22. Calls on the Commission in any further such initiative to promote equal opportunities for men and women;

23. Stresses the importance of access to knowledge and education for the creation of an open educational and cultural area and the fostering of educational awareness;

24. Calls for account to be taken also of the situation of people affected by restructuring plans and groups who, without preparation or training, will have difficulty finding work owing to their age; calls also for continued efforts to promote the education of young people, whose lack of experience hampers their integration into active working life;

25. Considers it important to make the most of, and to support any public- and private-sector initiative of the ‘University of the Third Age’ type, the aim of which is to provide education for the elderly and retired persons;

26. Calls for the obstacles hindering the recognition of educational qualifications by the Member States to be removed;

27. Calls for action to encourage mobility in the education of school pupils and students from all parts of Europe and all socio-economic sectors;

28. Calls on the Commission to include the following in all future White Papers of this kind: clearly- defined and realistic objectives; a demonstration of the ‘European added-value’ of the action(s) being proposed; an estimate, by means of activity-based budgeting, of the full cost of such action(s); an opportunity- cost analysis; performance indicators to measure progress towards attainment of objectives; a procedure for assessing pilot projects and for modifying proposed measures and actions in the light of the results of such assessments; 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/153

Tuesday 15 May 2001 29. Calls on the Commission to include in any future White Paper a clear timetable for a report to the budgetary authority on its implementation, and to respect this timetable;

30. Calls on the Commission in any future report on the implementation of a White Paper to evaluate the success or failure of the actions and measures it has taken and an assessment of whether these have been good value for money;

31. Calls on the Commission to present any such report in clear and plain language and to make an effort to organize any such report in such a way that it is easy to understand;

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

18. e-Learning Designing tomorrow’s education

A5-0152/2001

European Parliament resolution on the Commission communications on the initiative and the action plan for 2001-2004 entitled ‘e-Learning Designing tomorrow’s education’ (COM(2000) 318 C5-0741/2000 and COM(2001) 172 C5-0151/2001 2000/2337(COS))

The European Parliament,

having regard to the Commission communication (COM(2000) 318 C5-0741/2000)

having regard to the Commission communication (COM(2001) 172 C5-0151/2001),

having regard to Articles 149, 150 and 157 of the EC Treaty,

having regard to the report from the Commission entitled ‘The concrete future objectives of education systems’ (COM(2001) 59),

having regard to the conclusions of the Lisbon European Council meeting of 23 and 24 March 2000 and the Santa Maria da Feira European Council meeting of 19/20 June 2000,

having regard to Rule 47(1) of its Rules of Procedure,

having regard to the report of the Committee on Culture, Youth, Education, the Media and Sport and the opinions of the Committee on Budgets and the Committee on Women’s Rights and Equal Oppor- tunities (A5-0152/2001),

A. whereas, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity, the Community’s role is to encourage the Member States to meet important goals relating to the quality of education,

B. whereas the e-Learning initiative is helping to strengthen the idea of a ‘single European educational area’, which complements the European research area and the European single market,

C. whereas know-how, knowledge and information have become the driving force of our society; whereas the e-Learning project is helping to devise a different way of learning and must aim primarily to extend the wealth of human understanding,

D. whereas too small a percentage of teachers and trainers have the skills required to use new technologies as an integral part of their normal teaching methods,

E. whereas children’s access to information and communication technologies is greatly affected by geographical, social and cultural inequalities,

F. whereas the high cost of telecommunications in Europe represents an obstacle to the extensive use of the Internet and the development of the digital culture and poses the risk of widening the gap between those who have access to the new information and communication technologies and those who do not, C 34 E/154 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Tuesday 15 May 2001 G. whereas in terms of developing new technologies there is a gap not only between the United States and Europe but also within the European Union itself, particularly between the eastern and western European countries,

H. whereas there is a lack of satisfactory equipment in the majority of schools (both state and private schools), universities and training centres in Europe, as regards both hardware and software,

I. whereas the European multimedia educational software industry is under-developed and the relationship between the education and training systems and the industry has failed to generate services that actually meet educational needs in Europe,

J. whereas the e-Learning initiative is designed to cut across various Community programmes which are already running (managed by different Directorates-General), such as Socrates, Leonardo da Vinci, Culture 2000, Media Plus and e-Content in the area of culture, education and training; the fifth and the forthcoming sixth Research Framework Programme, Ten-Telecom, TSER and Meda; and possibly also the European Social Fund and the Structural Funds,

K. whereas the success of the e-Learning initiative will depend on the extent of the financial contributions allocated to it under each current Community programme, as well as on the financial resources made available by the Member States,

1. Calls on the Commission, the Council and the Member States to take account of the following points:

(a) Shares the goal set by the Heads of State and of Government of ensuring that all citizens have lifelong access to training courses in the knowledge and skills necessary for living, working and contributing to their personal enrichment in the new information society;

(b) Considers that the e-Learning project must not only take account of access to the new information and communication technologies, but also guarantee e-content of quality, and training to use that content;

(c) Calls on the Member States to make every effort to close the gap between those who have access to new technologies and those who are excluded, and to provide for priority actions aimed at minority groups, such as old people, the disabled, the unskilled and residents of isolated and island regions, and at women;

(d) Calls on the Commission to define priority measures to reduce the new technology gap between, on the one hand, countries within the European Union and, on the other, EU countries and the candidate countries of eastern Europe;

(e) Calls on the Member States and the Commission to encourage cooperation between society and private enterprise in the process of investing in new technologies, providing hardware and specifically in extending the content networks;

(f) Calls on the Member States to promote measures to reduce the costs of access to new technologies and the Internet;

(g) Expects that, through the e-Europe comprehensive action plan, the objectives set by the Lisbon Euro- pean Council meeting, as well as the employment policy guidelines, can be given concrete effect;

(h) Wishes e-Learning also to give practical shape to: the objectives of the Lisbon European Council, and the Stockholm follow-up to it with the report on ‘concrete future objectives of education and training systems’; the employment guidelines; attractive life-long learning for all; and the promotion of virtual mobility;

(i) Expects the goal set at Lisbon of equipping all schools in the Union with Internet access by the end of 2001 actually to be met and all teachers to have high-speed access to the Internet, personalised electronic mail, an annual refresher course or programme in technologies and teaching methods and multimedia teaching resources by 2002; 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/155

Tuesday 15 May 2001 (j) Proposes, in accordance with the Lisbon objectives for bridging the digital gap in the emerging information society and boosting social cohesion, to enable every schoolchild and student to have an electronic address at their place of education;

(k) Calls on the Council and Member States to look into the possibilities for flat rates for internet access by educational establishments;

(l) Calls on the Council and the Member States to promote the creation of a high-speed, highly flexible and highly multi-cultural trans-European network which will link up research institutes, universities, scientific libraries and ultimately schools, businesses and local and national administrations for the exchange of scientific and other information in the various languages, and which can spearhead teachers’ efforts at bench-marking and at exchanging best practice;

(m) Urges the Commission to ensure that e-Learning measures supported by Community funds give absolute priority to teacher training and that, where funds allow, other sectors such as the training of trainers or the exchange of experience between research experts are also able to enjoy Community support;

(n) Asks the Commission and the Member States to encourage the use of ICT for school twinning and collaboration in Europe, and to help teachers to adopt new and innovative ways of working with ICT through Europe-wide dissemination of leading examples and practice, and with this purpose support eSchola a week for e-Learning in Europe;

(o) Calls on the Commission and the Member States to ensure that the e-Learning initiative concentrates on priority objectives: providing all schools with the necessary technological infrastructure and training teachers (who, more than anyone, are responsible for education), through bench-marking measures and the exchange of best practice, so that they acquire knowledge and skills in the use of the new technologies for educational purposes, in both content and software, which should be flexible, multicultural and should take account of the specific characteristics of pupils and other diverse factors, in order to improve child and adult pupils’ capacity to learn, by developing distance learning and differentiated and individualised teaching methods;

(p) Calls on the Commission and the Member States to ensure that the e-Learning initiative gives absolute priority to integrating the information technologies in school curricula, by means of teaching methods that use the new technologies; considers that teaching centres will be responsible for developing the content of the new school curricula, thus providing a higher standard of excellence and competition between centres;

(q) Calls on the Commission and the Member States to launch, with the e-Learning initiative, an ambitious European policy for developing high-quality educational multimedia software, content and services that are adapted to the needs of teaching and professional training;

(r) Calls on the Commission and the Member States to create the necessary fora to encourage relations between education and training establishments and the content industry in order to generate high- quality educational products;

(s) Calls on the Member States to ensure, by the end of 2002, that as many teachers as possible are trained in the use of the Internet, high-speed and database networks and multimedia resources, and to provide them, by the end of 2003, with such training as will ensure that they are ‘digitally literate’ and capable of adapting the new electronic communication systems to the classroom in a critical and educationally responsible manner;

(t) Calls on the Member States to promote policies for motivating teachers, by showing them that the information technologies can offer them a number of advantages: they are cost-effective, efficient and cut red-tape in schools;

(u) Calls on the Commission to continue to help ensure, by supporting European networks such as ‘Euro- pean Schoolnet’ a joint initiative of the Commission and the Member States in 1997 for the development of ICT in schools , that training and research centres become local multipurpose knowledge acquisition centres open to all, using methods that reflect the diverse nature of the groups at which they are aimed and the goal of life-long learning; C 34 E/156 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Tuesday 15 May 2001 (v) Intends to support the e-Learning initiative, which it regards as an absolute priority in the area of education, and to provide adequate funding under the budget for the relevant coordination, management and assessment tasks, including the human resources required;

(w) Calls on the Commission to ensure it has the necessary structures in place in order to operate suc- cessfully, in particular an effective task force led by the EAC Directorate-General to be responsible for the horizontal coordination of the e-Learning initiative as it affects all the Community programmes that are involved in various ways, and to carry out an in-depth study of experience obtained to date in the Member States in the educational use of the new technologies, in order to identify consistently successful or less effective educational uses of the new information and communication technologies;

(x) Calls on the Commission to urge the Member States to ensure that the infrastructure provides high quality standards, that general quality criteria and assessment rules are laid down, both for content and the level of training courses available, and that the aim should be for bench-marking wherever possible;

(y) Calls on the Commission to consider seriously the possibility of submitting a series of measures and actions aimed at promoting the work of each Member State in the area of the application of new technologies to teaching, thereby helping to reinforce the implementation of a ‘European educational area’;

(z) Calls on the Commission to support proposals and initiatives of Member States and regional authorities to promote the learning of information technology skills, to adopt proposals aimed at defining new basic skills (technical knowledge, foreign languages, etc.) and to define a system for the mutual recognition of national qualifications and diplomas in information technology;

(aa) Calls on the Commission to define indicators to monitor the development of e-Learning, including indicators monitoring the equality of children’s access to information and communication technologies regardless of geographical, social or cultural inequalities; these indicators will give the Member States better information on their results in implementing e-Learning;

(ab) Recalls that in the 2001 Budget the appropriations foreseen for the e-Learning initiative under a preparatory action in the meaning of Article 37 of the IIA of 6 May 1999 were increased by Parlia- ment;

(ac) Stresses that, according to Article 274 of the Treaty, the Commission should implement the budget voted, while Parliament, as part of the budgetary authority, has the responsibility to ensure the best value for money in deciding the priorities and the monitoring of budget implementation;

(ad) Underlines that the information and knowledge-based society to which e-Learning refers is taken into account in the guidelines for the 2002 budget procedure;

(ae) Intends to use the instruments provided by the IIA of 6 May 1999 to fund Parliament’s priorities in respect of the authorised ceilings; considers that the possibility of concentrating the appropriations as much as possible should be looked at in the context of the 2002 Budget;

(af) Expects the Commission to provide an adequate and specific legal framework for Parliament’s priorities which have received financial support and the effectiveness of which can be assessed;

(ag) Calls for the action plan which is to be submitted to the next meeting of the Council of Education Ministers on 28 May 2001 to take due account of the principle of gender equality in all relevant areas, with particular reference to those covered by the employment guidelines and the European Social Agenda adopted at the Nice European Council;

(ah) Calls on the Commission and the Member States to encourage the public and private sector to close the gap in education and training systems in informatics between female students, who constitute less than 20 %, and male students, who constitute more than 80 %, and therefore calls for special training schemes to be organised for women, particularly female teachers in gender segregated courses; 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/157

Tuesday 15 May 2001 (ai) Calls for specific initiatives to be taken to foster the development of appropriate educational software for women and girls; calls for support for regional and local training centres especially for women and girls, and calls for a reduction in the current ‘digital divide’ by involving marginalised groups, such as unemployed single mothers; (aj) Endorses the stated objective of stepping up the interconnection of virtual forums and campuses, the networking of universities, schools, training centres, and multi-disciplinary learning centres open to all; calls for this to be used as an opportunity to organise and establish a register of exchanges of best practice in the teaching and training of young girls and women.

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

19. Broad economic guidelines for 2001

A5-0165/2001

European Parliament resolution on the Commission’s recommendation for the broad guidelines of the economic policies of the Member States and the Community for 2001 (COM(2001) 224 C5-0169/2001 2001/2081(COS))

The European Parliament,

having regard to the Commission’s recommendation (COM(2001) 224 C5-0169/2001),

having regard to Articles 98 and 99 of the Treaty establishing the European Community,

having regard to Rule 41 of its Rules of Procedure,

having regard to the Commission’s report on the implementation of the 2000 broad economic policy guidelines (COM(2001) 105),

having regard to the Commission’s report on economic reform: report on the functioning of Com- munity product and capital markets (COM(2000) 881),

having regard to the report of the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs and the opinion of the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs (A5-0165/2001),

A. whereas the start of 2002 is an historic juncture in that, for the first time in history, twelve sovereign states will be sharing a common currency and using the same notes and coins,

B. whereas this represents a further stage in the process of the integration of national economies, following on from the free-trade area, customs union and the internal market,

C. whereas it appears appropriate to use a new term for this form of cooperation between states and describe a common market with a common currency as a ‘home market’,

D. whereas at the Lisbon meeting of the European Council the Union set itself the new strategic goal of becoming ‘the most competitive and dynamic knowledge-based economy in the world with more and better jobs and greater social cohesion’;

E. whereas the Union is now faced with the challenge of formulating appropriate common economic policies for this ‘European home market’ with a single monetary policy. These should be drawn up in accordance with the principles of a ‘social market economy’,

F. whereas, for the time being, the procedure establishing the European Union’s broad economic policy guidelines is the main instrument for coordinating the economic policies of the European Union, C 34 E/158 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Tuesday 15 May 2001 G. whereas the broad economic policy guidelines are not legally, but most certainly are politically, binding,

H. whereas a major problem with the broad economic policy guidelines is that they lose substance if economic development during the period in which they are implemented departs from the forecasts on which they are based,

I. whereas flagging international economic activity in conjunction with developments on financial markets needs to be closely monitored as, following 3,4 % economic growth last year which was the best performance of the European Union since 1991, the immediate task ahead is to maintain strong economic performance in a context of less supportive global economic conditions;

J. whereas the European Union must assume its responsibility for the world economy in view of the economic downturn in the USA and Japan,

K. whereas the Commission was still assuming 3 % growth in its autumn forecast but today economic growth of between 2 and 2,5 % appears realistic for this year;

L. whereas US economic growth trends have a considerable psychological impact on financial markets, but need not impact to a large extent on the EU economy, since exports to the US only account for some 3 % of European Union GDP,

M. whereas last year, for the first time in a long time, the rise in employment in the European Union exceeded that in the US, and that trend is likely to continue this year if the necessary further reform measures are taken,

N. whereas unlike the US central bank, which is required to safeguard monetary stability and economic growth, the mission of the European Central Bank primarily focuses on ensuring price stability, and the exchange rate is a factor in its deliberations only to the extent that it influences price stability,

O. whereas, according to current forecasts, the inflation rate in the euro area will be over 2 % for two years in succession (2000 and 2001), thus exceeding what the ECB defines as price stability,

P. whereas a certain rise in prices in connection with the introduction of the euro cannot be ruled out,

Q. whereas the influence of monetary policy on economic development is limited, since interest rate levels are but one of many factors in businesses’ investment decisions,

R. whereas, under the Stability and Growth Pact, the Member States committed themselves to achieve balanced budgets or surpluses,

S. whereas although the objective of balanced budgets has been achieved in general, this has been made possible by increased tax receipts as a result of last year’s favourable economic situation, low interest rates and UMTS proceeds,

T. whereas a number of Member States have not adequately exploited the favourable environment in order to reduce budget deficits and indebtedness,

U. whereas, in the ‘new economy’, technological and scientific knowledge is crucial to the economic future of national economies, and therefore more efforts must be directed at promoting training com- mensurate with this,

1. Notes that with the introduction of the single currency twelve EU Member States have entered a further stage of integration which can be called the ‘euro zone’ or ‘European home market’;

2. Calls on the Member States to base their economic policies on the objectives and specific measures agreed by the European Council in Lisbon and developed further by the European Council in Stockholm, including the agreements concluded in connection with European economic coordination; 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/159

Tuesday 15 May 2001 3. Urges, moreover, Member States to design their economic policies in such a way so as to fully incorporate sustainability requirements and to live up to the commitments in Kyoto;

4. Takes the view that, in view of the worsening world economic situation, the European Union must look to its own strengths;

5. Welcomes in particular the identified political priority to improve the quality and sustainability of public finances in line with the results endorsed by the Stockholm European Council; underlines in this context the importance of public spending towards the contribution to growth and employment and the achievement of the objectives agreed within the framework of the ‘Lisbon strategy’, including greater social cohesion;

6. Welcomes the fact that the economic policy guidelines include the promotion of sustainable development; however, underlines that the environmental dimension must be developed for all economic policy fields concerned (‘mainstreaming’); calls, therefore, for the development of more horizontal measures and initiatives, taking into consideration the environmental effects of all kind of economic activities in an effort to achieve sustainable development;

7. Calls on the Member States to undertake appropriate reforms of capital, product and labour markets in order to foster investment and create a level playing field while ensuring services of general interest and a high level of social security and environmental protection;

8. Supports the efforts of the Member States, bearing in mind the budgetary restrictions and demographic challenges, to adapt pension systems without abandoning pension targets; stresses that, above all in view of this necessity, the necessary financial scope for taking action must be created; points out that, to date, the necessary reform of pension systems has been put off in many Member States;

9. Points out that not all Member States exploited the opportunity for sustainable budget consolidation last year and, in view of the less favourable conditions emerging, cautions against any slackening of efforts;

10. Takes the view that the potential for spending cuts must be fully exploited in all areas; stresses in this connection the importance of developing education and of public investment, which must, however, be targeted and based on strategic objectives, and must not drive out private investment, which has priority;

11. Expresses its support for all measures, especially all timetabled policy steps, in the direction of a transition to a knowledge-based economy; underlines, however, that the achievement of a knowledge- based economy presupposes increased activity in the areas of research and development, of higher education, of training and retraining of the labour force and ultimately the emergence of a process of lifelong learning for all members of society, such increased activity requiring both additional private and public investment in human resources as well as in projects to develop information highways, e.g. in the form of common satellite projects or TENs projects, and asks the Council to remedy this deficiency in the final version of the guidelines;

12. Recalls that the ECB’s primary objective is to ensure price stability;

13. Stresses that the ECB’s monetary policy is ensuring a favourable monetary environment for growth and employment in the euro area but that there is a need, within that environment, for greater coordination of euro countries’ economic policies in order to create the appropriate conditions for sustainable growth and employment;

14. Calls, in this spirit, for the rapid launch of a debate on the establishment of a political economic policy coordination mechanism which, going beyond the system of broad economic policy guidelines, would aim to guarantee on an annual basis convergence of the fiscal and budgetary policy of the Member States belonging to the euro;

15. Takes the view that any European Union sanctions against individual Member States must take into consideration whether developments in the Member State concerned impact on the euro area as a whole; C 34 E/160 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Tuesday 15 May 2001 16. Regrets that the Stockholm meeting of the European Council did not reach concrete agreement on the liberalisation of the European electricity and gas markets, and stresses that a balanced process of liberalisation in the outstanding sectors is essential in order to realise the ambitious objective of making the European Union the world’s most competitive and dynamic economic area by 2010, provided this has no negative effect on high standards of environmental protection and working conditions or on access to universal services and security of supply requirements. Requirements of the product and the production process should play a crucial role in the decision making about liberalisation,

17. Calls in order to realise that objective for greater efforts to complete the internal market and in particular, in the process, for agreement finally to be reached on the Community patent and for a suitable legal framework to be created for biotechnology, information and communications technologies; 18. Stresses that the legislation on public procurement currently under revision should be re-designed in such a way so as to allow Member States’ procurement practices to be pro-active in order to achieve the goals set out in Articles 2 and 6 of the EC Treaty, namely the promotion of sustainable development, ensuring a high level of social protection and improving quality of life of the citizens;

19. Stresses that the area of defence must also be opened to the Community rules on public procurement in so far as this is justifiable;

20. Points to the low share of businesses’ expenditure going on research and development or on education and training in the European Union, by comparison with the US, and stresses the need for European coordination among the Member States and the need for development of new or improved systems of incentives, such as have already been introduced by some Member States, in order to increase that share; 21. Stresses the critical importance and urgency of the EU and Member States providing an encouraging environment for the development of new science and technology based industries, in particular those which have the potential to make the EU economy more sustainable;

22. Regards the progress in reducing unemployment in some Member States as encouraging, but stresses the need to continue reform of labour markets and takes the view that with regard to the decisions on employment (Cardiff, Luxembourg and Lisbon) there must be clear identification of where responsibility for the various areas lies;

23. Welcomes the Commission’s intention of taking purposeful steps with a view to developing and opening up European labour markets and, by drawing up proposals for a more uniform system for the recognition of qualifications, achieving greater transparency and flexibility on the labour markets; 24. Reiterates its call for an amendment to Article 99(2) so that the broad guidelines of economic policy are discussed and decided on a proposal from the Commission and not on a recommendation from the Commission; stresses once more, however, that the democratic deficit in European economic policy must be overcome through the conclusion of an interinstitutional agreement between the Council, the Commis- sion and Parliament;

25. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission and the parliaments of the Member States. 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/161

PROCEEDINGS OF THE SITTING

IN THE CHAIR: Mrs FONTAINE

President

1. Opening of sitting

The sitting opened at 09.05.

The following spoke:

Corbett who, noting that two representatives of the Burmese military junta were attending the UN Conference on Trade and Development currently taking place in Parliament’s buildings in Brussels, although the EU’s position was not to grant visas to members of this junta, and learning from the Council that it had only waived the ban in this case to avoid falling short of its obligations towards the UN, called on the President to ask the Council for clarification that this was an exception and that the above decision concerning access remained in force (the President confirmed that she would raise the matter with the High Representative, Javier Solana);

Van Orden who, referring to what he called the ‘intimidatory demonstration’ which had taken place yesterday in the courtyard of the Louise Weiss building, asked what restrictions could be placed on such demonstrations and what rights Parliament had in this respect;

Banotti, Quaestor, who noted in response to Mr Van Orden’s remarks that she had already expressed her concern to the Bureau about a similar demonstration which had taken place last week in front of the Parliament in Brussels; apparently the area in front of Parliament’s buildings was a public space and therefore under the control of the local gendarmerie who, she stressed, should do their utmost to ensure that such events did not happen again;

Caudron who stated that, despite assurances from the President, he had not yet received a copy of the documents received from the Spanish Ministry for Foreign Affairs concerning the request for waiver of Mr Berlusconi’s parliamentary immunity, which he had asked for during Monday’s sitting (Minutes of 14 May, Item 9) (the President assured Mr Caudron that measures had been taken to provide the documents to all Members and that she would follow up the matter immediately);

Maij-Weggen who supported Mr Corbett’s remarks;

Staes who, referring to Mr Caudron’s remarks, stated that the documents in question had been sent to Members by e-mail, and, referring to the letter sent by the President to Mr Berlusconi congratulating him on his electoral victory, expressed surprise at the excessively flattering tone of the letter (the President replied that she had sent the letter of congratulation in a personal capacity, as was clear in the letter, and not on behalf of Parliament);

Fiori who, referring to the remarks by Mr Staes and other Members on the request for waiver of Mr Rapport Berlusconi’s immunity, protested at the consistent lack of respect shown both by Parlia- ment towards one of its Members, and by other Members towards the future head of the Italian government who had been freely elected by the Italian population;

Galeote Quecedo who, referring to yesterday’s attack in the Basque region which had injured the journalist Gorka Landaburu, called on the President to forward Parliament’s condolences to the victim (the President reminded the House that when she had spoken yesterday afternoon condemning the latest attack (Minutes of 15 May, before Item 29) she had immediately assured the victim of Parliament’s support); C 34 E/162 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Wednesday 16 May 2001 Katiforis who, referring to his remarks on the freeing of a hostage by the Turkish Cypriot authorities (Minutes of 14 May, Item 9), informed the House that, in the meantime, another Greek Cypriot had been arrested by the Turkish Cypriot authorities, and considered therefore that Parliament should review its position towards these authorities.

Wednesday 16 May 2001 6. World conference against racism

B5-0340/2001

European Parliament recommendation on the European Union’s position at the World conference against racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance

The European Parliament,

having regard to Rule 107 of its Rules of Procedure,

having regard to Articles 6, 7 and 29 of the Treaty on European Union and Article 13 of the EC Treaty which commit the Union and its Member States to the observance of high standards of human rights and non-discrimination, and to the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union,

having regard to the relevant international legal instruments to which the Member States are party, in particular the 1966 International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimi- nation, the 1995 Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities and the European Convention for the protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms,

having regard to the establishment in 1997 of the European Monitoring Centre on Racism and Xeno- phobia and the important role it can play in the fight against racism, xenophobia and anti-Semitism,

having regard to Council Directive 2000/43/EC of 29 June 2000 implementing the principle of equal treatment between persons irrespective of racial or ethnic origin (1) and the progress made towards acceptance and celebration of diversity in Europe, which gives the EU authority to contribute to the deliberations of the World Conference,

having regard to the regional preparatory conferences in Dakar, Tehran, and Santiago, and especially to the conclusions of the ‘All different, all equal’ European preparatory Conference of 11-13 October 2000, whose subtitle ‘from principle to practice’ is an injunction we need to follow,

whereas the European Union emphasises the role of civil society in combating racism and racial discrimination, and welcomes activities in this field,

whereas there is no room for complacency and the EU should learn from the rest of the world; whereas much individual and institutional racism persists in Europe, opinion surveys give considerable cause for concern regarding attitudes towards minority groups, racist violence seems to be on the increase, and there is a worrying degree of political exploitation of prejudice including against immigrants and asylum-seekers,

whereas the rise in racism and racist violence against minorities is posing a serious political problem in the Member States, which must deal with it particularly by continuing to promote proper inter- cultural dialogue and mutual respect of the different cultures,

whereas racism often has its origins in Member States’ colonial history, and was further manifested by more recent events such as the Holocaust, and this reality should be acknowledged within the Euro- pean education system and, in particular, in history curricula,

whereas, in spite of efforts by the EU and other international bodies, the number of acts of racist violence against immigrants and members of minority communities has increased in Europe and the rest of the world,

whereas the European Union rejects any theories which assert the racial superiority of particular groups of peoples,

whereas it supports the World conference against racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance to be held in Durban, South Africa, from 31 August to 7 September 2001,

(1) OJ L 180, 19.7.2000, p. 22. 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/209

Wednesday 16 May 2001 whereas the Member States are committed to tackling illegal immigration in a humane way, by combating the Mafia networks which exploit human poverty, rather than by taking repressive measures against the victims of such networks,

whereas racism and xenophobia are the antithesis of the spirit and practices of European integration, and discrimination based on racial or ethnic origin undermines the objectives of the EC Treaty; whereas the European Union, in developing an area of freedom, security and justice, has a constructive role to play in international relations, and a key responsibility in ensuring a successful outcome to the World conference against racism,

I. Puts to the Council the following recommendation;

1. Reminds the Council of Parliament’s Resolution of 21 September 2000 concerning the European Union’s position at the World conference against racism and the current situation in the Union (1);

2. Believes that Member States and the Union should put principle into practice and make the fight against racism and xenophobia a priority, both at national and international level, including actively opposing ethnic cleansing and genocide and stressing the importance of combating racism and xenophobia in the context of negotiations with candidate countries;

3. Points out that equality of political, social and cultural rights of immigrants and members of minority communities is the basis of democratic life and deprives racist movements of their ideological source by giving additional safeguards to the most underprivileged,

4. Proposes sending a delegation to the World Conference in Durban;

5. Urges the Council to incorporate the following in its common position to be presented on behalf of the European Union at the World conference against racism:

firm condemnation of attacks on immigrants and members of minority communities, and of racist or discriminatory actions against any group of people,

expression of pride in progress the European Union is making in combating racism, but also of humility about the challenges still to be addressed,

recognition of the long-term suffering and continuing impact caused by Europe’s historical and con- temporary experiences, notably slavery and colonialism, the Holocaust, ethnic cleansing and religious intolerance,

acknowledgement of the connection between, on the one hand, measures to combat racism and on the other, the need to pursue a coordinated European policy on asylum and immigration and promote the equal legal position of immigrants,

commitment by Member States to taking practical measures in combating racism, such as training programmes to combat intolerance, legal recourses for the prosecution of parties and groups with racist or xenophobic ideology, programmes for the social integration of immigrants, etc.,

commitment to achieving consensus with parties from other regions of the world on assisting future international development, not least in offering technical and financial assistance to countries at the forefront of the fight against racism and xenophobia,

acknowledgement that full respect of basic rights, including the right to development established as a fundamental right at the 1993 World Conference on Human Rights in Vienna is an essential factor in preventing ethnic conflicts, particularly in the developing countries,

emphasis of the importance of the participation of civil society and the NGOs, as essential players when proposing strategies to combat racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and any other expression of intolerance,

(1) ‘Texts Adopted’, Item 16. C 34 E/210 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Wednesday 16 May 2001 determination of Member States to deal with immigration as part of a global strategy that includes cooperation with the immigrants’ countries of origin and immigrants’ integration, particularly in the field of social and employment issues,

need to take account of situations of multiple discrimination, particularly concerning women, as it is essential to include the gender perspective in action to combat racism and xenophobia,

emphasis on the need to promote policies and programmes that foster and develop the civil, political, economic and social rights of the victims of intolerance, racism and xenophobia,

II. Calls on the Presidency, in accordance with Articles 19 and 21 of the Treaty on European Union, to inform and consult Parliament at an early date on the main aspects and basic choices concerning the common position for, and coordinated action at, the conference;

III. Instructs its President to forward this Recommendation to the Council, the Commission, the governments of Member States, the Council of Europe and the Secretary-General of the World conference against racism.

7. Area of freedom, security and justice

B5-0339/2001

European Parliament resolution on progress in establishing an Area of freedom, security and justice (AFSJ) in the year 2000

The European Parliament,

having regard to Article 39 of the EU Treaty,

having regard to the legal acts adopted in 2000 and the measures now being prepared,

having regard to the Commission’s ‘scoreboard’ relating to progress in implementing the Tampere priorities,

whereas the European Council at the end of 2001, two years after the Tampere Summit, is to carry out a mid-term review of the implementation of the Tampere conclusions and at the same time assess the impact of the forthcoming EU enlargement on the AFSJ,

mindful of the participation of national parliaments and civil society, particularly in the hearing of the Committee on Citizens’ Freedoms and Rights, Justice and Home Affairs of 21 March 2001,

having regard to the statements made by the Council Presidency and the Commission at Parliament’s plenary sitting of 4 April 2001,

1. Welcomes, as a matter of principle, the following developments in the year 2000:

(a) the proclamation of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, which in implementing the values on which the Union is based (Article 6 of the EU Treaty) explicitly sanctions the fundamental rights to which every human being is entitled and those recognised as belonging to EU citizens, thereby making it possible to establish a genuine AFSJ (Article 2 of the EU Treaty);

(b) the establishment of an ‘alarm mechanism’, provided for in the Treaty of Nice, in order to preserve the principles of liberty, democracy, respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms, and the rule of law (Article 6(1) of the EU Treaty), which improves the conditions for creating and safeguarding an AFSJ; 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/211

Wednesday 16 May 2001 (c) the reform of the European Court of Justice, envisaged in the Treaty of Nice, which significantly improves its working methods, thereby contributing to a more efficient implementation of the AFSJ;

(d) the forthcoming creation of Eurojust, which will link the Member States in the area of judicial cooperation;

(e) the further development of Europol in the area of police cooperation and the establishment of a European police academy, which is now to be followed by the creation of a European border security unit as called for by Parliament as long ago as 1998;

(f) the albeit unfortunately extremely limited transition to the co-decision procedure and a qualified majority in the Council in relation to provisions for combating discrimination (Article 13 of the EC Treaty), the right of travel and residence for Union citizens (Article 18 of the EC Treaty) and certain measures in the area of visa, asylum and immigration policy and judicial cooperation in civil matters (Title IV of the EC Treaty);

(g) the new approach taken by the Council and Commission regarding the possibility of committing the Member States to the creation of sanctions in criminal law in order to ensure compliance with Union policies (in the area of the environment, common market, euro forgery, illegal immigration, the for- ging of documents), which makes it increasingly necessary that judicial cooperation in criminal matters should also become a Community issue;

(h) the very efficient and transparent Commission policy in establishing the AFSJ brought about by the introduction of the ‘scoreboard’ and Commissioner Vitorino’s systematic cooperation with the Euro- pean Parliament;

(i) the legislative acts that have been adopted in the year 2000, particularly those that have been considered successful: Council Directive 2000/43/EC of 29 June 2000 implementing the principle of equal treatment between persons irrespective of racial or ethnic origin (1), the application of which represents an important weapon in the fight against racism and xenophobia, as well as backing for the integration of immigrants and minorities in the Union; the adoption in the field of judicial cooperation in civil matters 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 (2), Council Regulation (EC) No 1346/2000 of 29 May 2000 on insolvency proceedings (3), Council Regulation (EC) No 1347/2000 of 29 May 2000 on jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of judgments in matrimonial matters and in matters of parental responsibility for children of both spouses (4), Council Regulation (EC) No 1348/2000 of 29 May 2000 on the service in the Member States of judicial and extrajudicial documents in civil and commercial matters (5), as well as the Council Act of 29 May 2000 establishing in accordance with Article 34 of the Treaty on European Union the Convention on Mutual Assistance in Crimi- nal Matters between the Member States of the European Union (6), Commission initiatives such as the proposals for directives on family reunification and on temporary protection in the event of a mass influx of displaced persons; the proposals already submitted by the Commission in the field of asylum, in particular temporary protection and minimum standards for asylum-seekers;

2. Considers itself obliged, despite these positive developments, to note:

(a) that the Member States and the Council are not succeeding in implementing a common policy in the areas of asylum and immigration despite the abolition of internal border controls, the establishment of a common economic area and the need to create a coordinated foreign policy with a view to countries of origin and transit and that they have not developed any strategic approach to this central area, merely submitting uncoordinated individual measures;

Wednesday 16 May 2001 (b) that the proposal for a directive on family reunification, an important instrument in the process of integrating immigrants and their families, has been awaiting a Council decision for a year and the third Commission initiative on the temporary protection of refugees may fail because of opposition from certain Member States;

(c) that in the area of judicial cooperation in criminal and civil matters despite a certain degree of progress the convention on judicial cooperation, adopted in 2000, has not yet been ratified by any of the Member States, and the programme on mutual recognition was also only recently adopted;

(d) that in the area of the fight against racism and xenophobia there is still an inability for Member States to enforce national law when their nationals carry out their illegal activities, in whole or in part, at a base in another Member State, e.g. German neo-Nazis producing ‘Holocaust denial’ material from a base in Denmark for distribution in Germany;

(e) that the establishment of Eurojust was delayed and the lack of infrastructure, human resources and a sufficient financial basis leaves room for doubt as to the willingness of national administrative bodies to cooperate, and further hinders the integration of the applicant countries;

(f) that, so far, strategies for combating organised crime exist only on paper, even though progress has been made in the areas of money laundering, child pornography and trafficking in human beings;

(g) that the European Parliament was not informed about any results of the accession negotiations with the candidate countries, either by the Commission or by the Council, and that Parliament therefore is unable to assess whether any progress has been achieved in negotiations;

(h) that the Council’s cooperation with the European Parliament in bringing about the AFSJ was inadequate, particularly in terms of the insufficient and late forwarding of information to the European Parliament and the lack of willingness to take proper account of Parliament’s decisions;

(i) that, despite cautiously positive announcements by the Swedish Council Presidency, there is still a lack of willingness on the part of the Council to transfer parliamentary scrutiny of Europol to the European Parliament;

(j) that, finally, there will be delays, contradictions and incongruities until the establishment of the AFSJ becomes a Community issue, thereby facilitating consistency of initiatives, clarification of competences and uniformity of procedures;

3. Calls on the Council and Commission therefore:

(a) to submit comprehensive strategies and precise timetables for the further development of individual central policies such as policy in the areas of asylum and immigration as soon as possible, so that the Laeken European Council can not only continue with the implementation of the Tampere conclusions but will also be able to submit a convincing programme for the development of an AFSJ, which should include an assessment of the impact of the forthcoming EU enlargement on the AFSJ;

(b) to take into account, in all future actions and proposals, the values contained in the Charter of Fun- damental Rights of the European Union;

(c) to rationalise working methods and to speed up the adoption of decisions which are often blocked in the Council, such as the directive on family reunification, and to give the Commission sufficient resources to achieve, within the envisaged deadlines, the objectives of the ‘scoreboard’;

(d) to agree at last on a programme for sharing the burden among the Member States with regard both to refugees fleeing civil wars and asylum-seekers;

(e) to bring forward legislative proposals to enable the perpetrators of fascist and other extremist crimes living in the EU to be prosecuted no matter where they choose to reside;

(f) to prepare the entry into force of the Treaty of Nice by recognising the European Parliament in its role as co-legislator as envisaged in the Treaty; 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/213

Wednesday 16 May 2001 (g) to envisage from the 2002 budgetary procedure onwards a reorganisation and strengthening of financing by the European Union for: direct beneficiaries, such as refugees and victims of criminal offences, information networks that aim at facilitating the control of external borders, cooperation between judicial authorities and the supply of information for the citizens, a smooth functioning of the European agencies, such as Eurojust and Europol;

(h) to make provision, in the post-Nice process, for extending the co-decision procedure to all legislative fields in the areas of justice and home affairs in which the EU will have competence after work has been completed on the catalogue of competences which is part of the post-Nice process;

(i) to establish the framework for cooperation between Europol, Eurojust and OLAF in such a way as to guarantee the effectiveness and independence of all three bodies, as well as their full integration in the Union’s institutional framework, which will enable them to benefit both the Member States and the Union institutions. Above all, this involves parliamentary scrutiny by the European Parliament;

(j) to ensure full participation by the European Parliament in all the measures to be taken in the context of the Schengen Agreement;

(k) to make a proper assessment of the current situation in the Member States and candidate countries regarding the expected impact and alternative possibilities prior to new legislative initiatives, taking account of the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality;

(l) to leave aside the multitude of uncoordinated individual initiatives of certain Member States and, instead, to submit coherent and strategically well thought-out proposals to the European Parliament as defined at Tampere and incorporated in the ‘scoreboard’;

(m) to take into consideration the rejection by the European Parliament (almost unanimously) of three French initiatives on: mutual recognition of decisions on the expulsion of third country nationals (1), facilitation of unauthorised entry, movement and residence (2), financial penalties imposed on carriers (3), while expressing deep concern about the willingness expressed by the Swedish Presidency to reach an agreement on these three initiatives;

(n) to strengthen initiatives on cross-border police cooperation and further training by developing the European police academy and creating a European border security unit, so that police forces cooperate on a cross-border basis at European level and are able to act effectively at national level on the basis of European standards;

(o) to reassess and extend the principle of mutual evaluation between Member States as a general method to evaluate the implementation in every Member State of the measures taken in the area of freedom, security and justice and concerning Schengen cooperation, while keeping the European Parliament regularly informed as to the results of such evaluation;

(p) to convene an extraordinary conference of Member State Ministers for Home Affairs and Justice during the Belgian Council Presidency in the second half of 2001, in order to have an appropriate dis- cussion of the overall strategy of the Union in the field of freedom, security and justice in the after- math of the European Council in Laecken;

(q) to call for an international conference to be convened in order to find a response to the situation of the thousands of Kurds who try to flee from their respective countries and intolerable living conditions and very often fall victim to traffickers in human beings,

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

The premium is currently subject to a regional ceiling. If the number of animals that can qualify for the special premium is smaller, there will be less incentive to produce. In addition, the introduction of a system of individual rights will make management more precise than by using a regional ceiling. A system of this sort, based on payments made in previous years, plus 3 % to create a reserve, should therefore be introduced, without exceeding the regional ceilings currently in force. 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/233

15. Future aims of education and training

B5-0341/2001

European Parliament resolution on the report on the future objectives of education and training systems

The European Parliament,

1. Regrets that it was not involved in the general reflection, and the drawing up of the report, on the ‘concrete future objectives of education and training systems’ which was submitted to the European Coun- cil in Stockholm on 23/24 March 2001,

2. Considers that the report marks a major political breakthrough in terms of following up the Lisbon European Council, as it establishes concrete objectives and defines the future role of education and training, a problem which affects all Europe’s citizens,

3. Emphasises that the ‘open method of coordination’ established by the Lisbon European Council, to which this report conforms, must not lead to failure to respect the role assigned to the institutions in the Treaties,

4. Confirms that the conclusions adopted at the Stockholm European Council are geared to meeting the strategic objective laid down by the Lisbon European Council and provide the basis for a programme of work for the coming decade, 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/243

Wednesday 16 May 2001 5. Considers that, in the context of the ‘open method of coordination’, the general reflection on the future role of education and training should take account of the contribution not only of the Member States but also of the European Parliament and the Commission, in compliance with the subsidiarity principle,

6. Insists that, in a spirit of interinstitutional cooperation, the European Parliament must be closely involved in drawing up the follow-up report and in the measures to be taken under the long-term programme of work,

7. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Commission and the governments of the Member States.

16. Extension of duty-free access to least-developed country products

A5-0128/2001

European Parliament resolution on the proposal for a Council regulation amending Council Regu- lation (EC) No 2820/98 applying a multiannual scheme of generalised tariff preferences for the period 1 July 1999 to 31 December 2001 so as to extend duty-free access without any quantitative restrictions to products originating in the least-developed countries (COM(2000) 561 C5-0136/ 2001 2000/0239(ACC))

The European Parliament,

having regard to the Commission’s proposal (COM(2000) 561 C5-0136/2001),

having regard to the Council Regulation (EC) No 416/2001 of 28 February 2001 amending Regu- lation (EC) No 2820/98 applying a multiannual scheme of generalised tariff preferences for the period 1 July 1999 to 31 December 2001 so as to extend duty-free access without any quantitative restrictions to products originating in the least-developed countries (1),

having regard to the Third United Nations Conference on Least Developed Countries (LDCs) held in Parliament’s premises in Brussels from 14 to 20 May 2001,

having regard to its resolution of 5 April 2001 on the Third UN Conference on LDCs (2),

having regard to the resolution adopted by the ACP-EU Joint Parliamentary Assembly meeting in Libreville on the Commission’s ‘Everything but arms’ (EBA) proposal, (ACP-EU 3171/01/fin.),

having regard to Declaration XXIII of the Cotonou Agreement, which sets out the procedure to be followed when the EU opens its markets to products from the LDCs,

having regard to Rule 47(1) of its Rules of Procedure,

having regard to the report of the Committee on Development and Cooperation and the opinion of the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development (A5-0128/2001),

A. whereas, according to the Unctad 2000 report on LDCs, the economic and social situation in the LDCs scarcely improved in the 1990s, whereas the gap between the LDCs and other developing countries grew even wider and whereas LDCs have a particularly low GDP per capita and a particularly high rate of illiteracy,

B. whereas the LDCs have an average per capita GDP of less than USD 300, which is extremely low, particularly by comparison with the figure of over USD 27 000 for the developed countries,

(1) OJ L 60, 1.3.2001, p. 43. (2) ‘Texts Adopted’, Item 15. C 34 E/244 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Wednesday 16 May 2001 C. whereas in many LDCs the trade policy measures adopted hitherto by the EU have not succeeded in reducing the economic and social gap with other developing countries and the industrialised countries,

D. whereas the European Union must keep a close eye on the qualitative and quantitative impact which such liberalisation has in the LDCs and in the Community regions concerned,

E. whereas the 48 LDCs account for only 0,4 % of total world trade and only 1 % of EU imports,

F. whereas most of the LDCs have been unable to make the structural changes to their economies which are essential if they are to emerge from the LDC category,

G. whereas 99 % of Community trade with the LDCs already enjoys duty-free access, either under the Lomé Convention or under the Generalised System of Preferences (GSP),

H. whereas Community protection still exists for the remaining 1 % of imports and often involves products in which LDC trade with the Community is very low or non-existent, and whereas this absence of trade is partly due to Community protection,

I. whereas duty-free access for products originating in LDCs without quantitative restrictions can contribute to the LDCs’ development by encouraging the development of trade in these products,

J. whereas the growth in trade which would result from such liberalisation must genuinely be of benefit to local people and not just to multinational companies which have set themselves up in the LDCs for the sole purpose of gaining duty-free access to the Community market;

K. whereas the Commission’s ‘Everything but arms’ proposal is a first signal of trade policy, and whereas it must be accompanied by other measures, both trade-related ones and, more generally, ones relating to cooperation and development policy,

L. whereas trade has a major impact on the survival of family-based agriculture and on the food auton- omy and self-sufficiency of the least-developed countries,

M. whereas the Declaration of 12 December 2000 by ACP Ministers of Trade ‘welcomes and supports’ the EBA initiative, and ‘expects the EC to honour existing agreements,’ and further ‘urges that the EBA initiative take into account the vulnerability of small, landlocked and island ACP States’,

N. whereas the EBA initiative will have a positive impact on market access for commodities, such as beef, rice and sugar, from least developed countries, but this proposal also raises concerns amongst ACP countries which are not LDCs that increases in LDC exports could be at their expense,

O. whereas the Commission’s ‘Everything but arms’ initiative, which seeks to enable all LDC products with the exception of weapons to enter the EU market duty-free, misleads the general public by liken- ing the LDCs to arms exporters, whereas it is the industrialised countries which sell weapons to the LDCs,

P. whereas the Oxfam/IDS EBA study of January 2001 shows that the initiative would have a very positive impact on market access for limited commodities, notably beef, rice and sugar for least developed and industrialised countries in the ACP, Mercosur, South Asia, South-East Asia, Eastern European and Mediterranean regions, but the study also recognises that ACP countries which are not LDCs have legitimate concerns to fear that any increase in LDC exports will be at their expense (even in the short term); whereas such potential losses need to be taken into account in any balanced assessment of the overall impact of the proposal, 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/245

Wednesday 16 May 2001 Q. whereas it is regrettable that, despite the spirit in which the Cotonou agreement was signed, ACP countries were not properly consulted, and concerns have been raised that EBA could undermine the EU sugar protocol and SPS sugar regime, which have delivered considerable benefits, particularly on price, and could also undermine the ACP rice exporters’ quota and tariffs system, displacing ACP rice in the EU market,

R. whereas the LDCs must be given unrestricted duty-free access for all their products to industrialised countries’ markets, including the EU, as soon as possible, and whereas the Commission’s ‘Everything but arms’ initiative is only a first step and needs to be accompanied by further supporting measures, in particular to expand administrative and logistic capabilities, and must also be brought into line with the Cotonou agreements and the related trade protocols, maintaining guaranteed prices for the main sensitive products for the family-type small farming economy in both northern and southern countries,

1. Welcomes the Commission’s initiative aimed at giving unrestricted access for all LDC products except arms and munitions to EU markets; recognises in addition that the EU has to give appropriate consideration to the legitimate expectation of the ACP countries on the basis of the Cotonou agreement, whilst also recognising that the current Cotonou agreement excludes the non-ACP countries where the majority of the poorest people live; deplores, however, the fact that the full liberalisation of trade in sugar, rice and bananas, which are very important export products for many LDCs, will not be implemented until 2009; hopes that further trade and development and cooperation measures will be adopted;

2. Calls on the EU Member States to establish clear policies on arms export control to LDCs and urges the EU Member States to comply with the UN Arms Export Register;

3. Considers that the LDCs’ local production and marketing capabilities must be encouraged so that the needs of their people can be met;

4. Calls upon the developed world to be prepared to make further market access concessions to agricultural products from the developing world;

5. Deplores the fact that the Council did not consult Parliament on the Commission’s ‘Everything but arms’ proposal on a voluntary basis despite an early request from Parliament and the Commission’s support for this; considers, regretfully, that this refusal may have a negative effect on confident future cooperation between the Council and Parliament;

6. Calls on the EU to consult the ACP countries on the EBA proposal, as outlined in Declaration XXIII of the ACP-EU Partnership Agreement; notes that Articles 36 and 37 of the Cotonou Agreement emphasise the need to safeguard the benefits of the commodity protocols, and the need for a preparatory period designed to prepare sensitive ACP industries for an end to preference;

7. Calls on the Commission to honour the commitment in Declaration XXIII to ‘examine all necessary measures to maintain the competitive position of ACP States on the Community market’;

8. Calls on the Commission to compile joint impact studies with the ACP on the EBA proposal, in order to assess the effect of this initiative on the LDCs and on other countries, such as ACP countries which are not LDCs;

9. Points out that the opening of EU markets to all products from LDCs must take place in accordance with the spirit and the letter of the Cotonou agreement with the ACP States and of the sugar and banana protocols; supports therefore provisions for adequate transition periods for duty-free access of sugar, rice and bananas originating in LDCs;

10. Considers that such a measure should be based on the principles governing the Cotonou Agree- ment, in particular the establishment of guaranteed-price and duty-free quotas; C 34 E/246 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Wednesday 16 May 2001 11. Notes that the proposed phased reduction in import duties for the most sensitive products, namely bananas, sugar and rice, has been submitted at a time when the relevant COMs are being completely overhauled, which has led to friction between Community and ACP producers and serious inconsistencies between agricultural policy and trade policy;

12. Notes that ACP exports, including those from 39 LDCs to the EU market, have declined despite their preferential access;

13. Calls on the LDCs to shift from a market-access, trade export-led approach to an intra-regional sustainable development strategy which takes into account the real need of the populations, which is to reduce dependency on industrialised countries and build domestic and regional markets;

14. Is concerned in particular at the effects which such a measure may have on levels of food security and self-sufficiency in the beneficiary countries;

15. Stresses the extent of the differences of opinion at the Commission between the Directorates-Gen- eral responsible for agriculture and trade regarding the impact which liberalisation will have on such sensitive products as rice, bananas and sugar;

16. Is of the view that any trade policy should aim to promote sustainable development and equitable trade rules;

17. Emphasises that the rapid entry into force and implementation of the ‘Everything but arms’ initiative and appropriate accompanying provisions, such as technology transfers and debt cancellation, could improve the situation of the LDCs;

18. Regrets greatly that in its abovementioned regulation of 28 February 2001, under pressure from a number of Member States, the Council extended the periods for opening up the European market to sugar, banana and rice imports from the LDCs as compared with the original Commission proposal;

19. Welcomes the adoption of this initiative, and calls for action to encourage other industrialised countries to adopt similar initiatives for the LDCs;

20. Considers that ACP countries should protect their economy and proceed to selective market opening, as was the case in Europe, in order to develop their own industries and to ensure their food independence and the survival and development of their small farming;

21. Calls on the Commission to support the LDCs to increase their technological, production, administrative and logistical capacity so that they can take full advantage of their free access to EU markets and develop their technological capability so as to be able to export finished products as well;

22. Considers to this end that it is essential to encourage the development of small businesses, coop- eratives and craft trades, microcredit and access to credit for the local population, by implementing decen- tralised forms of economic cooperation between the European entities and their counterparts in the LDCs, by supporting training courses, scientific and technological research and the creation of joint ventures;

23. Calls on the Commission to help the LDCs to diversify their production and their exports;

24. Calls on the Commission to ensure that, in finalising the arrangements on access for bananas from LDCs, no measures are introduced which would be likely to destabilise the market or cause a further decline in prices;

25. Emphasises that market opening can mean an increase in transhipment of goods and hence defrauding of the rules of origin; calls therefore on the Commission and the Member States to activate technical assistance mechanisms to prevent fraud; 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/247

Wednesday 16 May 2001 26. Points out that all food products traded, in either direction, must meet strict food safety criteria, with special reference to veterinary and plant health aspects and maximum pesticide residue levels; 27. Considers that technical knowledge and technology regarding the quality standards which European consumers require their food to meet must be funded and transferred to the least developed countries;

28. Calls for full consideration to be given to how to respond to any loss of income which occurs in the agriculture sector as a consequence of this initiative;

29. Deplores the fact that the Commission did not carry out in due time adequate impact studies on the possible effects of its proposal, in particular as regards the rapid opening of EU markets for sugar, rice and bananas; 30. Calls on the Council and the Commission to submit, within a reasonable period of time, an assessment of the implementation of this measure and, if necessary, a revision thereof after consulting the European Parliament, the ACP countries and the LDCs, and to establish a dialogue with the social organisations involved;

31. Calls on the Commission to submit a review every five years in order to enable the consequences of liberalisation both in the LDCs and in the outermost regions to be assessed; 32. Considers that, in the event that evidence of fraud by the countries benefiting from the measures is detected, a joint EU-LDC committee should be empowered to investigate and temporarily suspend tariff concessions accordingly; 33. Calls on the Commission to keep a close eye on local markets in the least-developed countries as regards possible shortages, which may arise if excessive amounts are exported; considers that, if it is proven that shortages on local markets are caused by excessive exports, the Commission should be able to suspend exports from those countries in line with Article 22 of the Regulation.

34. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council and the Commission. C 34 E/248 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

PROCEEDINGS OF THE SITTING

IN THE CHAIR: Mrs FONTAINE

President

1. Opening of sitting

The sitting opened at 10.00.

2. Approval of Minutes of previous sitting

Mr Madelin and Mr Jean-Pierre had informed the Chair that they had been present at the sitting of 16 May but that their names were not on the attendance register.

Mrs Flemming and Mr Thomas Mann spoke on the vote.

The following Members spoke on the incident during the previous day’s sitting (Item 23) in which three protestors had gained access to the Chamber:

Ferber, who, in his capacity as rapporteur for Parliament’s budget for the 2001 financial year, denied that the Budgets Committee was blocking measures to strengthen the security service, pointing out that the posts in question had been entered in the reserve but that the Bureau had not yet requested their utilisation (the President noted that the three demonstrators had entered Parliament’s premises as guests of a Member and announced that the Quaestors had immediately considered the matter and that the Bureau was currently studying a number of very strict security measures concerning Parlia- ment’s premises, for which cooperation with the Budgets Committee would be required);

Gerhard Schmid, who referred to Mr Ferber’s remarks and noted that the incident was not directly linked to the strengthening of the security service but rather to a lack of vigilance by the present security services (the President agreed with Mr Schmid);

Provan, who noted that the incident called into question the status and responsibility of individual Members as to whom they invited into the House, and called for an urgent Bureau meeting to discuss the problem (the President noted that the whole matter would be discussed at the Bureau meeting on 30 May);

Wurtz, Chairman of the GUE/NGL Group, who announced that the three protestors had been invited into Parliament by a Member of his political group; he apologised for the incident but pointed out that the three individuals had used deception to get themselves invited; he further announced that he had received that morning a letter from the Member concerned explaining the incident, which he would forward to the President;

Ferber, who referred to his previous remarks and noted a discrepancy between the German and Span- ish language versions of Item 23 mentioned above;

Pack, who pointed out that one of the individuals who had entered the Chamber yesterday had been responsible for a previous attack on the Turkish Foreign Minister during a meeting of the Committee on Foreign Affairs and asked how it was possible that this person had not been identified and stopped in advance, and asked for the question to be studied in depth (the President replied that measures would be taken together with the Quaestors to ensure that such incidents would not be repeated);

Maes, on the Minutes relating to this incident. 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/249

Thursday 17 May 2001 The following Members then spoke on the application of Rule 143 concerning inadmissibility to the report by Mrs Schleicher, on behalf of the Committee on Constitutional Affairs, on European political parties (A5-0167/2001) (Item 25). Dupuis, who noted that the challenge to the legal basis of the report which had been behind the motion of inadmissibility could not be resolved until the Nice Treaty had been ratified and that the item could not be reinstated on the agenda until then; Berthu, who referred to his own remarks of 16.5.2001; Poettering, on behalf of the PPE-DE Group, who pointed out that the relevant provision of the rules which had been invoked to remove the item from the agenda had been Rule 143 (‘Moving the inadmissibility of a matter’) and not Rule 144 (‘Referral back to committee’) as some Members had apparently understood; Barón Crespo, on behalf of the PSE Group, who, with reference to his request of 16.5.2001, asked for the report to be added to the agenda of the current sitting; Seppänen, in response to Mr Barón Crespo’s remarks.

The Minutes were approved.

E. whereas the Council has presented a ‘note explicative’ to the chairman of the Committee on Budgets on 10 April 2001 in which detailed information on and justification for the present Draft Supplemen- tary and Amending Budget are given,

F. whereas the remaining margin in heading 5 of the Financial Perspective (‘Administrative expenditure’) is € 34,7 million, and whereas point 12, second subparagraph of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 6 May 1999 requires that ‘(…) the institutions will ensure (…) that sufficient margins are left available beneath the ceilings for the various headings’,

1. Welcomes the Council’s decision to launch with this SAB a new European defence policy; regrets, however, that this policy is not better integrated into the first pillar and fears a possible overlapping of responsibilities and initiatives;

2. Recalls that the inclusion of CFSP/ESDP administrative expenditure in the budget, in accordance with Article 28 of the Treaty on European Union, is the only way of ensuring democratic control over this policy;

3. Takes note of Council’s commitment, during the trialogue of 29 March 2001, to study jointly with the Parliament and Commission the long-term effects of new initiatives under heading 5 of the Financial Perspective; considers that the current ceiling of heading 5 should not prevent the Institutions from launching new initiatives (i.e. following the implementation of the Nice Treaty), where justified and appropriate, and that a procedure for the revision of the ceiling is foreseen in the IIA;

4. Considers that the Council has not provided in its DSAB 2/2001 the transparency that it believes necessary to judge properly the need for the appropriations requested, but welcomes the Council decision to create in the budget for 2002 a special Title with different chapters for the administrative expenditure relating to CFSP/ESDP; notes that all the administrative expenditure related to this sector will be entered in this Title;

5. Considers, nevertheless, that the Council has presented the required transparency and justification in the aforementioned ‘note explicative’;

6. Regrets that this ‘note explicative’ does not contain a separate establishment plan for the common European security and defence policy; requests that such an establishment plan be presented together with the Council’s estimates for 2002;

7. Urges the Council to guarantee that no overlapping structures in the Council and the Commission will be created, especially concerning tasks of the first pillar, such as crisis prevention and civilian crisis management;

8. Considers that further development of the common European security and defence policy risks elbowing out and jeopardising the normal administrative expenditure in heading 5 of the Financial Per- spective;

9. Recalls, in any case, that the maximum number of new posts to be allocated to the administrative sector of CFSP/ESDP shall in future never exceed the total number proposed in this SAB, without its prior consent;

10. Notes that the ‘gentlemen’s agreement’ between the Council and the Parliament has up to now concerned ‘classic’ administrative expenditure; considers that the ‘administrative expenditure’ used to set up and maintain the second (and third) pillar(s) of Community policy has a different status; C 34 E/328 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Thursday 17 May 2001 11.

(1) OJ L 210, 28.7.1998, p. 38.

Amendment 3 Recital 1b (new)

(1b) Regulation (EC) No 1638/98 has been adopted, and, in accordance with the time-frame laid down by the Com- mission, the future common organisation of the market in oils and fats must now be determined, but the aim of obtaining accurate information on the sector has not been achieved. Other circumstances which have arisen in the intervening period have, however, revealed severe distortions in the olive oil market, exacerbated by imperfec- tions of the system such as, for instance, inadequate private storage arrangements and the meagre production quota, which are adversely affecting traditional olive groves. 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/329

Thursday 17 May 2001

TEXT PROPOSED AMENDMENTS BY THE COMMISSION BY PARLIAMENT

Amendment 4 Recital 1c (new)

(1c) Any future reform proposal must take account of and seek to preserve the multifunctionality of olive groves, since they generate employment, bring substantial environmental benefits to Europe’s Mediterranean regions, and act as a key inducement for populations to remain on their home territory. Furthermore, any reform must move towards modernisation of the production system so as to enable production to be geared to the market and guarantee product quality and safety for consumers. All the above measures must of necessity dovetail with the priority objective of maintaining farm incomes.

Amendment 5 Recital 1d (new)

(1d) When carrying out a reform it is necessary to consider all possible options with a rigorous assessment of its impact on rural communities, and especially the less developed ones, the social impact on small-scale producers, the protection of the consumer’s right to obtain natural olive oil identified as such, the heritage value of ancient olive trees, the environment and territorial occu- pation, and the European budget.

Amendment 6 Recital 1e (new)

(1e) The abolition of the public intervention arrangement has adversely affected farm incomes because the new private storage system has failed to contain the fall in prices. The existing private storage system consequently needs to be changed in order to make it more flexible and effective.

Amendment 7 Recital 2a (new)

(2a) It is necessary to increase cooperation between Community and national control bodies ensuring the transparency in this CMO in a reliable and effective way, capable of preventing fraud.

Amendment 8 Recital 2b (new)

(2b) Monitoring production aid is easier and more effective in the case of 11 000 oil mills rather than 2 million farmers. Therefore, improvements should be made at this stage by imposing additional obligations on authorised oil mills. C 34 E/330 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Amendment 10 Recital 3a (new)

(3a) Given that operators in the sector do not have real- time access to accurate information, computerised tools should be provided so that operators can more easily supply the data for which they are responsible, making the most effective use of the monitoring systems currently in force and simplifying the related implementing procedures.

Amendment 11 Recital 3b (new)

(3b) The consumer must be provided with sufficient guarantees that any product sold under the name of olive oil is indeed olive oil. This calls for a strong quality-control effort conducted at European level, as well as research into more efficient methods of detecting adulterated products.

(4b) To improve the quality of olive oil, including where better consumer information is concerned, the various descriptions designating olive oils must be clearly specified.

TEXT PROPOSED AMENDMENTS BY THE COMMISSION BY PARLIAMENT

No analytical methods exist which make it possible to determine accurately the percentage content of each vegetable oil used in blends. Unlike in the case of cows’ milk or butter there are no rules to prevent misuse of the term ‘olive oil’. A remedy should be found for this state of affairs, which creates distortions within the market and tends to confuse consumers.

Amendment 18 Recital 9a (new)

(9a) In addition to acidity, other characteristics should be taken into account to enable parameters for olive oil quality to be properly established, for example peroxides, waxes, triglycerides, k232, etc. A programme should therefore be launched forthwith with a view to monitoring these parameters in Community oils.

Furthermore, the current panel test system must be improved in order to produce an objective definition, using a clear-cut, impartial system to define the characteristics that determine quality.

having regard to United Nations Security Council Resolutions 242, 338, 1310 and 1322,

having regard to the conclusions of 8 December 2000 of the European Council meeting in Nice,

having regard to the statement by the Presidency of the European Union on 18 April 2001,

having regard to its resolution of 5 April 2001 (2) on the outcome of the Stockholm European Coun- cil,

having regard to the principle of the Madrid Conference on the Middle East peace process,

A. alarmed by the continuing deterioration of the prospects for the peace process in the Middle East, since the region is ravaged daily by an escalation of violence, including the loss of many civilian lives,

B. whereas so far it has not been possible to achieve effective implementation of any initiative to encourage a resumption of dialogue between the Israelis and Palestinians to put an end to the escalating violence,

(1) ‘Texts Adopted’, Item 9. (2) ‘Texts Adopted’, Item 14. 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/357

Thursday 17 May 2001 C. whereas the report of the Sharm el Shaikh Fact-Finding Committee comes to the conclusion that Israel has to freeze settlements and both parties have to halt violence unconditionally,

D. whereas there is an urgent need for the European Union to adopt new initiatives to help bring an end to the violence, to build up confidence and to bring about a resumption of negotiations between the two parties, on the basis of respect for international law and the relevant United Nations resolutions,

E. whereas, as declared by the EU Presidency, ‘the progress made on all major issues during the last negotiations should form the basis for future talks on the permanent status’,

F. noting with concern the new tensions that have arisen between Israel, Syria and Lebanon,

G. whereas a just, fair and lasting peace can be established only in a regional context and negotiations also have to be resumed in the Syrian and Lebanese context,

H. considering the intolerable situation of the Palestinian population in the Occupied Territories, which is today the victim of an unacceptable and unfair collective punishment,

I. shocked by several recent terrorist attacks against the Israeli civilian population committed by Palesti- nians,

J. whereas several international and Palestinian-based organisations have reported the common practice of serious human rights abuses by Palestinian officials, including torture and the denial of a fair trial,

K. whereas Israel has confirmed the existence of a policy of ‘selecting military targets’ carried out by security forces, and whereas the EU has condemned this policy of extrajudicial executions,

L. pointing out, in this regard, the responsibility that Syria and Lebanon share in defusing tension and controlling extremists groups,

M. whereas Israel’s improper implementation of its trade-related agreements is causing the benefits of Community preferences to accrue illegally to goods produced in illegal settlements,

1. Expresses its deep consternation at the number of civilian victims as a result of conflict in the last few months; and expresses its sympathy and solidarity with the families of all the victims;

2. Rejects the use of violence, reaffirms its commitment to pursuing the dialogue and peace negotiations and considers that there is no military solution to the conflict;

3. Calls urgently on all parties concerned to put an end to violence; condemns the excessive and disproportionate use of force, extrajudicial executions by the Israeli Army in the Occupied Territories and the fact that the Occupied Territories have been totally sealed off; condemns all terrorist attacks perpetrated in Israel; calls on the Palestinian National Authority to make every effort to fight against terrorism, reduce violence and control extremists;

4. Condemns the Israeli Army’s illegal incursions into the territories under the control of the Palestinian National Authority in the West Bank and Gaza;

5. Condemns the extension of settlements in the Occupied Territories, which creates a de facto situation which will make the application of future peace agreements more difficult; C 34 E/358 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Thursday 17 May 2001 6. Notes the Sharm el Shaikh Fact-Finding Committee’s conclusions and supports the view that all settlement, including natural growth, must be frozen;

7. Calls on the Member States, in accordance with the report, to propose to the United Nations Security Council that an observer mission be sent to the Palestinian territories;

8. Supports any initiative intended to bring about a resumption of dialogue between Israelis and Pales- tinians, especially from the Egyptian/Jordanian side; considers that only a resumption of dialogue and application of confidence-building measures can achieve an effective end to all violence;

9. Calls on the Israeli Government to restart negotiations by putting an end to the sealing-off of the territories and to the continuation and expansion of the settlement policy and paying back the overdue tax revenues to the Palestinian National Authority;

10. Calls on the Gothenburg European Council to work out and adopt a common strategy on the Middle East, on the basis of proposals presented by the High Representative for the CFSP, in cooperation with the EU permanent representative in the Middle East, to achieve the objective of increased effectiveness and visibility of the EU’s political and diplomatic activity in the region, taking into account the several EP resolutions on this issue;

11. Regrets the attitude of some Member States at the annual meeting of the UN Commission on Human Rights in Geneva; believes that the abstention on the resolution condemning human rights violations in the Occupied Territories endangers the profile of the EU, undermining the overall development of the Euro-Mediterranean partnership;

12. Considers that the disproportionate use of force by the Israeli Army and the collective punishment are not in accordance with the principles of the association agreement already in force between the EU and Israel; calls therefore on the Council and Commission to assess these violations, draw the necessary conclusions and report to the European Parliament;

13. Urges the Commission and the Member States to take decisive measures to correct any violation of rules of origin by Israel under the trade agreement with the EU and to inform Parliament, so as to avoid any indirect complicity in illegal settlements;

14. Considers that future peace proposals must be based on respect for international law, on United Nations Security Council Resolutions 242 and 338, on effective and complete application of the interim agreements already concluded between Israelis and Palestinians, and on what was achieved at the latest Camp David negotiations;

15. Recalls the position of the EU in favour of the creation of a viable, democratic and peaceful Pales- tinian state;

16. Regards it as essential, in order to achieve peace in the region, that the Lebanese Government should exercise sovereignty over its own territory, and calls on Syria and Israel to enable it to do so;

17. Calls also on all Middle East countries to cooperate effectively against terrorist networks and to reiterate their commitment to the security of all countries in the region;

18. Stresses the importance of implementing, in the whole region, an education policy aimed at promoting tolerance and mutual understanding between cultures and religions;

19. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the Israeli Govern- ment and Parliament, the Palestinian National Authority and Legislative Council and the United Nations Secretary-General. 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/359

Thursday 17 May 2001 7. State of the transatlantic dialogue

B5-0345, 0347, 0348 and 0353/2001

European Parliament resolution on the state of the transatlantic dialogue

The European Parliament,

having regard to the Commission communication, Reinforcing the Transatlantic Relationship: Focus- ing on strategy and delivery results (COM(2001) 154),

having regard to its resolutions of 18 November 1999 on the EU approach to the WTO Millenium Round (1) and 15 December 1999 on the Third Ministerial Conference of the World Trade Organi- sation in Seattle (2),

having regard to its resolution of 15 December 1999 on climate change: follow-up to the Fifth Con- ference of the Parties to the UNFCCC (Bonn, 25 October to 5 November 1999) (3),

having regard to the EU-US agreement in principle to resolve the dispute over trade in bananas,

A. whereas Europe and the USA have a common and vital interest in the continued spread of democracy, modern governance, open societies and markets, sustainable economies, human rights and the rule of law throughout the world,

B. whereas US-European cooperation, including that within the Atlantic Alliance, has been decisive in preserving the security and stability of the Euro-Atlantic region,

C. whereas Europe and the US have an increasing stake in each other’s economic performance and social development,

D. whereas US-European cooperation should be a major contributing factor to successful management of issues of a global nature, such as in the field of trade, the environment, the fight against organised crime and against poverty in developing countries,

E. whereas the Summit of the Americas in Quebec in April 2001 on the establishment of a Free Trade Area of the Americas by 2005 could have important consequences for the traditional trade relation- ships between the EU and the Americas and whereas in this context, the Summit made, for the first time ever, a commitment to democracy, political stability, human rights and labour and environmental standards,

F. whereas the European Parliament reaffirms the need to deepen transatlantic political dialogue, regards as a positive signal the presence of President Bush at the Gothenburg Summit, and insists that the transatlantic agenda should develop new and more sophisticated mechanisms to identify and manage areas of disagreement,

G. whereas the EU and the US have taken decisions through the Transatlantic Declaration of November 1990 and the New Transatlantic Agenda of December 1995 to build a new framework for transatlantic cooperation, including twice-yearly EU-US summit meetings,

H. whereas the House of Representatives and the European Parliament have developed, since January 1999, a Transatlantic Legislators’ Dialogue, building on the existing interparliamentary delegation which has met bi-annually since 1972,

I. noting that the Transatlantic Business Dialogue (TABD) has held regular meetings attended by representatives of Europe’s highest bodies, whereas other transatlantic dialogues such as the Transatlantic

Thursday 17 May 2001 Consumer Dialogue (TACD), the Transatlantic Labour Dialogue (TALD) and, above all, the Transatlan- tic Environment Dialogue (TAED) have suspended their activities because the US government has not been able to provide its share of the finances necessary for running these dialogues,

1. Reaffirms its commitment to the values which underlie the transatlantic community: freedom, democracy and human rights;

2. Notes that the EU-US relationship has broadened considerably in the past decade since the fall of the Berlin Wall, as witnessed by the massive growth in the economic and political exchanges across the Atlan- tic, assisted in part by the globalisation of the economy;

3. Believes that it is necessary to deepen transatlantic political dialogue to match this expanding agenda, building a broader, more transparent partnership, including mechanisms for agreeing and acting on shared priorities; insists that the central task of transatlantic dialogue must be to define the terms of the strategic partnership between the United States and Europe, on a basis of equality, addressing the roles of each in global and regional affairs, the commitment of both to multilateralism and a rule-based international system, and the contributions which the EU and the USA will make to shaping equitable burden-sharing e.g. in the economic, social, security, humanitarian, environmental and diplomatic fields;

4. Insists that close cooperation between the United States and the European Union is essential not only to both US and European interests, but also to global interests in tackling issues such as the fight against poverty, safeguarding the environment, global trade, cultural and information diversity, the digital divide and organised crime;

5. Notes, in this context, the Commission’s timely communication to the Council and Parliament on a new impulse for EU-US relations, focusing on strategy and delivering results; welcomes its analysis of the current state of the relationship but believes, at first sight, that the solutions proposed with regard to limiting the number of summits, the choice of priority issues and the inclusion of policy-makers in an institutional framework are insufficient to match the requirements of the developing transatlantic partnership;

6. Calls on the President-in-Office of the Council and the Commission President to work out a common agenda with the US President at the next EU-US summit in Gothenburg in June to demonstrate clear progress in the updating of the New Transatlantic Agenda in order to ensure a more effective management of EU-US relations by the end of 2004, by which date the mandates of both the US President and the Commission President will be coming to an end;

7. Asks the Commission President and the President-in-Office of the Council to present as a matter of course to the Parliament the EU’s position on each upcoming EU-US summit meeting and to report back to it on the results obtained;

8. Recommends that the number of EU-US summits per year should be maintained or possibly increased in view of the accumulation of issues on the Transatlantic Agenda, but that when issues are prioritised during any particular year, the number of such priorities should be strictly limited;

9. Acknowledges the importance of the Transatlantic Legislators’ Dialogue between Congress and the European Parliament, but believes that further initiatives should be taken to enhance the links between these institutions and review the resources necessary for these activities; in this context, draws attention to the conclusions of the Houston Declaration of 26-28 June 1998 on US Congress European Parliament cooperation, and recommends specifically that:

Members of the European Parliament and the US Congress should be associated with all future EU-US summit meetings,

this association should consist of a formal session with the Senior Level Group prior to each summit, and of attendance at a portion of each summit as observers,

consideration should be given to how the existing interparliamentary exchange might be transformed into a de facto ‘transatlantic assembly’; 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/361

Thursday 17 May 2001 Economic relations

10. Emphasises that global security and stability are best promoted by a strong commitment of leading nations to multilateralism in international relations and within international organisations (UN, IMF, World Bank); regrets that some of the new US Administration’s early actions have raised doubts about the strength of its commitment to multilateralism; invites the USA to confirm that commitment, including by settling its debts and making its financial contributions to UN bodies;

11. Regrets the trade disputes which bedevil relations between the EU and the USA and calls for their early resolution; recognises, however, that the trade affected by these disputes is a very small fraction of total trade;

12. Considers, as regards bilateral economic relations between the EU and the US, that the emphasis should be on working together closely and effectively in order to manage potentially divisive trade disputes; welcomes the understanding reached on 11 April 2001 for resolving the long-running dispute over bananas;

13. Believes that the impact of WTO Disputes Panel findings on sensitive areas of domestic policy on either side of the Atlantic including, for example, tax law, food safety and consumer sovereignty demonstrates the need both for reform of WTO rules and procedures and for the EU and USA to devote greater efforts to achieving, where possible, diplomatic and negotiated solutions to problems of transatlantic trade;

14. Asks the EU and the US to develop common positions ahead of the international fora, especially on international transport issues such as aviation and shipping, with a view to harmonising regulations in the areas of safety, environmental protection, competition and anti-trust law;

15. Considers that the common interest in a rule-based trade system points to the urgent need for the EU and the US to agree on a Fourth WTO ministerial meeting in Qatar in November 2001, which would be favourable to all parties and take into account the needs of developing countries, particularly in the area of sustainable development, and which must address in particular the issues of third-world development, environmental and social standards, as well as transparency and democracy in the world trade system;

16. Underlines the importance of strengthening the democratic accountability of the WTO and reiterates its proposal for a parliamentary dimension; invites the US Congress to take part in the preparation of the parliamentary meeting to be held in parallel with the WTO meeting in Qatar in November 2001;

17. Welcomes the decision taken jointly by the European Parliament delegation to Seattle in 1999 and the agricultural caucus of the American Congress to pursue their regular exchanges of views on agricultural issues;

Security and defence matters

18. Is convinced that cooperation within the Atlantic Alliance continues to be of decisive importance for security and stability in the Euro-Atlantic region and welcomes in principle the Alliance’s readiness to accept new members;

19. Insists that the further development of the ESDP, which includes the European Rapid Reaction Force, should strengthen NATO’s capabilities and European defence;

20. Is concerned that the USA’s MDS proposals could lead to a new arms race, which would reduce rather than enhance global security; stresses the necessity for the US to consult all countries concerned prior to developing a missile defence system; furthermore underlines the necessity for the US not to withdraw unilaterally from the ABM Treaty; C 34 E/362 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Thursday 17 May 2001 Climate change

21. Deplores the US Administration’s unilateral announcement in March 2001 that the USA would not implement the Kyoto Protocol; recalls that the United States is the world’s biggest polluter and single biggest contributor to climate change and that an overwhelming consensus of international scientific opinion has identified climate change as the gravest environmental threat facing the world;

22. Calls on President George W. Bush’s Administration to reaffirm the commitments made by the USA under the Kyoto Protocol and on the USA to abandon its isolationist position with regard to the global challenge of climate change;

Legal issues

23. Calls on the USA to ratify the Treaty on the establishment of an International Criminal Court, and to take no action which would prejudice its ratification by other countries;

24. Considers it necessary, in the context of the transatlantic dialogue, to call on the various States of the USA where the death penalty exists to abolish it;

The ‘Echelon’ system

25. Regrets the conduct of the US State and Trade Departments, which have refused to hold important talks on which an agreement in principle had been given at preparatory meetings, and their unreadiness to meet the delegation from Parliament’s temporary committee on the Echelon system, when it visited Wash- ington last week; considers that this both gives the impression and provides evidence of a lack of willingness to engage in dialogue and a lack of the trust which should guide relations between the European Union and its American partners, especially on such a delicate issue; welcomes, however, the spirit of openness and availability shown by the US Congress towards the European Parliament’s delegation;

* **

26. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Commission, the Council and to the Presi- dent and Congress of the United States of America.

8. Safe and sustainable pensions

A5-0147/2001

European Parliament resolution on the Commission communication on The Future Evolution of Social Protection from a Long-Term Point of View: Safe and Sustainable Pensions (COM(2000) 622 C5-0011/2001 2001/2003(COS))

The European Parliament,

having regard to the Commission communication (COM(2000) 622 C5-0011/2001),

having regard to the progress report from the High-Level Working Party on Social Protection on the above communication from the Commission (14055/00) of 30 November 2000,

having regard to the progress report from the Economic Policy Committee on the impact of ageing populations on public pension systems (12791/00) of 26 October 2000,

having regard to the conclusions of the Santa Maria da Feira, Lisbon and Nice European Councils of 19/20 June 2000, 23/24 March 2000 and 7-10 December 2000, 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/363

Thursday 17 May 2001 having regard to the Council Recommendation of 27 July 1992 on the convergence of social protection objectives and policies (1),

having regard to the Council conclusions of 17 December 1999 on the strengthening of cooperation for modernising and improving social protection (2),

having regard to Rule 47(1) of its Rules of Procedure,

having regard to the report of the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs and the opinions of the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs and the Committee on Woman’s Rights and Equal Opportunities (A5-0147/2001),

A. whereas the increase in the life expectancy of the population and in healthier lives constitute one of the greatest achievements of our age,

B. whereas increased life expectancy will translate according to some estimates into a doubling of the demographic old-age dependency ratio by 2050, without prejudice to changes given by legal immigration into Europe; whereas, however, forecasts of future social developments should be treated with caution, taking into account the economic dependency ratio, and standardised criteria for monitoring purposes and for the recording of statistics are needed,

C. whereas the sustainability of pensions is not only a problem of ‘finding the means’ but also a matter of the EU to achieve many of its objectives, particularly with regard to a high level of social security provisions, sustainable non-inflationary growth and social cohesion; whereas not only demographic trends but also technological developments, particularly in medicine, and the position of families, especially the financial risks of single people, present a challenge to the role of pensions,

D. whereas strategies for organising and financing social protection so as to enable the future challenges posed by the greater longevity and the ageing of the population to be met and the profound changes occurring in economic activities and the employment market to be accommodated should be set in train now both in the present Member States and in the candidate states,

E. whereas social protection in the Member States of the European Union is based both on solidarity and on insurance and is a productive factor contributing to sustainable economic growth, employment, social peace and security of livelihood,

F. whereas policies capable of creating a virtuous circle of economic and social progress should be put in place with a view to their reinforcing each other to optimum effect,

G. whereas although the subsidiarity principle applies as regards social security schemes the completion of the internal market and of economic and monetary union, the forthcoming enlargement of the European Union and the European employment strategy will in future make some degree of cooperation between Member States in the area of social protection and social policies in general desirable,

H. whereas the Union, in order to bring about closer cooperation, making use of the open coordination method, should introduce convergence criteria for pensions too, including common, quantifiable objectives applicable to all the Member States, with common indicators, guidelines, national action plans, reporting and recommendations, as well as initiatives on the exchange of data, experience and models, in order to improve social protection in Europe and to ensure pensions for all while maintaining a standard of living with dignity;

1. Welcomes the Commission communication and the initial results of the work begun by the High- Level Working Party on Social Protection and the Economic Policy Committee following the request by the Lisbon European Council to examine the future evolution of social protection; welcomes the trans- formation of the High-Level Working Party on Social Protection to the Committee on Social Protection and the legal basis for this change provided for in the Treaty of Nice;

(1) OJ L 245, 26.8.1992, p. 49. (2) OJ C 8, 12.1.2000, p. 7. C 34 E/364 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Thursday 17 May 2001 2. Stresses that the reform measures to be taken must not only address the structure of the pension schemes but must also introduce a successful growth strategy and active employment policy; in this way the pressure on public finances could be reduced and painful benefit cuts or higher contributions and taxes would be necessary only to a limited extent.

3. Urges the Swedish presidency to put the debate on the old age provisions and pensions high on the agenda of the European Council in Göteborg, and to provide for progress in the coordination of the different aspects of the European debate linking the budgetary/financial aspects of the costs of ageing, the debate on the future of social protection, the proposals concerning financial markets access, the problems of the barriers to free movement that are dealt with inter alia in the Pensions Forum, and taxation on pensions;

4. Expresses the hope that the work undertaken will be pursued in greater depth still under the Swedish Presidency with the objective of arriving under the Belgian Presidency at European cooperation on pensions, which, starting from a number of common objectives, should lead to an open coordination strategy covering the entire area of social protection; calls, therefore, on the Commission, basing itself both on this communication and on the reports, to propose draft guidelines on social protection, including pensions;

5. Considers, moreover, that the strategy of mutual reinforcement of economic and social policies as laid down by the Lisbon European Council should lead to convergence of macro-economic, employment and social protection policies at the European level;

6. Stresses that, above all in view of the ageing of the population, the necessary financial scope for reform of pension schemes must be created; points out that, to date, such reforms have been put off in many Member States;

7. Emphasises the fact that safe and sustainable pensions contribute to interregional social equity within Europe and to macro-economic stability by creating an actual demand within the internal markets, which is independent of economic swings and which by itself is capable of creating jobs which will reduce unemployment as the number of retired people grows;

8. Endorses the opinion of the Committee on Social Protection that the analysis of pension systems in the light of the demographic challenge they face cannot be confined merely to the financial dimension, but should also take account of the contribution to social harmony and intra- and inter-generational solidarity;

9. Welcomes, in this connection, the ten principles set out by the Commission in its communication, and takes the view that indicators should be established on the basis of these principles as part of open coordination;

10. Considers, in the context of achieving Europe-wide coordination of pensions policy, that studies should be carried out on the initiatives which might be taken to apply the 1992 recommendation on the minimum income to be guaranteed by the social protection systems;

11. Agrees with the Commission that the reform of pension systems should not only meet demographic demands but should also, above all, be based on social justice and the fight against poverty and insecurity; notes that the poverty rate is higher among households composed of older people, particularly elderly women, and takes the view that reducing this poverty rate should be one of the priority objectives of the reforms; points out that old age and ill health combined with low pensions are the major cause of poverty and social exclusion in a number of Member States; calls on the Member States to make sure that widow’s pensions are maintained at a reasonable level;

12. Stresses that a sensible economic policy and growth-oriented structural reforms which will create a favourable economic and business environment are extremely important. An adaptation and modernisation of the labour market is urgently needed, particularly in the light of the integrated strategy decided in Lisbon to increase the working population and raise its productivity;

13. Agrees with the Commission that an increase in the employment rate is particularly liable to secure safe and sustainable pensions as it has a dual effect on the revenue and expenditure of pension schemes; 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/365

Thursday 17 May 2001 14. Takes the view that, notwithstanding mobilisation of all available labour resources, some increase in the level of pension expenditure in relation to GDP is inevitable; stresses that economic growth and sus- tained productivity gains will be decisive factors in meeting this challenge with regard to public budgets; welcomes, in this connection, the strategy laid down at the Lisbon European Council summit aimed at sustainable economic growth with more and better jobs and greater social cohesion;

15. Reiterates, therefore, its opinion that it is necessary to step up the fight against all forms of discrimination on the labour market, in particular discrimination against women and older workers, and to encourage, through refresher and vocational retraining measures, and through changes in the organisation of the work and working hours and industrial safety and health protection in keeping with the needs of women and the elderly, the re-entry of persons excluded from the labour market into working life and the training and preparation of young people so as to enable them to become part of the active population, avoiding at the same time competition between generations;

16. Is opposed to compulsory early retirement and favours gradual or partial voluntary retirement, taking into account justified and/or justifiable objective circumstances such as the difficult or dangerous nature, or the risks to health, of the work and the age of entry into working life;

17. Recalls the objective of the Lisbon Process to increase the percentage of resident women in paid employment; calls therefore, on the Member States to promote women’s full access to employment in all sectors and at all levels, inter alia by means of positive action;

18. Takes the view that the implementation of coherent social and fiscal policies making it easier to combine work and family life is the precondition for greater participation by women in employment; draws attention to the interdependence between the level of social protection for families and the availability of public services, on the one hand, and birth rates and participation rates by women, on the other;

19. Considers that families which take direct responsibility for sick and elderly relatives should be supported by means of fiscal, social and employment benefits and calls on all the Member States to take appropriate action in the light of the successes achieved in the Member States which have already launched such initiatives, which have proved to be a particularly human and effective form of welfare provision;

20. Stresses that women and men endeavour to balance their working lives with their roles as parents and considers therefore that both male and female employees who make use of parental leave arrangements should be able to acquire pension rights in respect of such periods of parental leave; considers also that leave arrangements for caring for sick or disabled children and relatives should also be pensionable;

21. Calls on the Commission to examine what reform of pension systems need to be undertaken in order to ensure pensions which enable men and women to live decently in cases of atypical and precarious work, part-time work, in the case of self-employment, or in the case of career interruption in order to have children, to take care of family members or for the sake of further education or sabbaticals;

22. Points to the equal opportunities problem associated with the fact that many women in the EU work part time or have no income from work and, therefore, often have no right or only partial entitlement to supplementary pension protection;

23. Points out that this problem should chiefly be resolved by means of a fairer division between men and women of paid employment and unpaid work caring for family members, so that women would become less dependent on derived pension rights and more women would be able to acquire their own, individual pension rights;

24. Stresses that in order to secure pensions in the long term, it is essential that comprehensive reform strategies should be drawn up before acute financing problems arise. The Member States are therefore urged to take appropriate steps to meet these challenges. The aim of this reform process should be to find a new balance between an adequate, secure income for the older generation and the long-term sol- vency of the systems, in the process of which a fair distribution of burdens between the generations must be ensured; C 34 E/366 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Thursday 17 May 2001 25. Advocates an appropriate balance between, on the one hand, proportional contributions and benefits and, on the other, the principle of solidarity in order to prevent poverty and social exclusion;

26. Notes that the sustainability of pension provision is also dependent on measures to maintain a financial balance in the pension schemes, and therefore recommends that the government debt be reduced, alternative sources of funding tapped, reserves built up and excessive taxation burdens, particularly on labour, avoided;

27. Stresses the essential importance of a broad public consensus on the organisation and financing and scope of social protection; calls on the Commission to launch and support information and education campaigns on the importance of solidarity between the generations and solidarity with dependent persons; also emphasises the importance of a broad partnership embracing civil society and the two sides of industry in the context of the debate on the modernisation of social protection at the European level;

28. Focuses attention to the problems of crossborder participation or continuation in pension schemes, that are major barriers for labour mobility in the EU; emphasises in that context particularly the necessity of proposals to coordinate and regulate at European level the systems of taxation of pension schemes in the Member States; urges the Member States to continue with the harmonisation of fiscal systems in respect of supplementary pension schemes by reaching agreements on the tax deductibility of pension contributions and taxation of the final pension and urges the Commission to put forward as soon as possible a proposal for a directive concerning the taxation of pensions;

29. Agrees that it is useful to present all retirement schemes within Europe as a combination of the three ‘pillars’ (state schemes, occupational schemes and individual pension plans) but points out that, in certain countries, this classification is an artificial one;

30. Considers that pension funds and private, public or mutual-benefit supplementary funded schemes can play a useful role in supplementing public PAYG schemes in order to meet the challenges posed by the ageing of the population, particularly capitalisation-based pension funds that are collectively agreed by social partners, accessible for all employees concerned, based on solidarity and equal treatment and, to a lesser degree, individual private pension arrangements offered on the basis of annuity; recognises, however, that public schemes based on solidarity are essential on account of their basic social purpose and warns, therefore, against any attempt to weaken or replace them;

31. Calls on Member States to sort out their tax-and-spend policies to make sure the funding of their PAYG aspirations is realistic;

32. Welcomes the planned exchange of views on experiences with supplementary pensions, as discussed at the Stockholm summit, but urges the Member States actually to implement the reform of national pension systems and to talk to each other on this subject;

33. Reiterates its call to be fully involved in the process of European social convergence and condemns, in this connection, the fact that the progress report from the Committee on Social Protection was not officially forwarded to the European Parliament; welcomes, on the other hand, the intention of the Com- mittee on Social Protection to enhance its dialogue with Parliament;

34. Asks to be consulted on the report of the Committee on Social Protection and will give its full assessment on the future of pensions schemes in the EU later on;

A5-0114/2001

European Parliament resolution on the European Court of Auditors’ Special Report No 11/2000 on the support scheme for olive oil, accompanied by the Commission’s replies (C5-0009/2001 2001/2001(COS))

The European Parliament,

having regard to the Special Report of the Court of Auditors No 11/2000 (C5-0009/2001) (1),

having regard to Article 248 (4), second subparagraph of the EC Treaty,

having regard to Rule 47 (1) of its Rules of Procedure,

having regard to Petition No 378/99,

having regard to the report of the Committee on Budgetary Control and the opinion of the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development (A5-0114/2001),

A. whereas the control, recovery and penalties system on olive oil is more strict than the system applied to other products susceptible to similar types of falsification and fraud such as subsidies to skimmed milk (see Court of Auditors’ special report No 1/1999) (2),

B. whereas the Court of Auditors’ examination of the olive oil scheme concentrates on the period up to 1998, i.e. before the entry into force of the three-year interim measures introduced by Council Regu- lations (EC) Nos 1638/98 and 1639/98 (3),

C. whereas the interim measures represent a quantitative increase in controls: introduction of a maximum guaranteed quantity by Member State (see paragraph 12 of the Court’s observations), additional conditions for the approval of mills, quality control of olive oil, obligation on growers to keep records, imposition of a scale of penalties, specific on-the-spot checks, control coverage between 1 and 10 % of the growers’ declarations, additional cursory checks on mills and in-depth cross-checks for suppliers and consignees (paragraph 13 of the Court’s observations),

D. whereas, in accordance with the deadline established in Regulation (EC) No 1638/98, the Commission, on 21 December 2000, submitted a proposal on the support scheme for olive oil extending the existing aid scheme by two marketing years,

E. whereas there is an urgent need for reliable statistical data concerning the number of olive trees, the areas planted and the yields, already requested from Member States as early as 1975,

F. whereas control mechanisms based solely on yields (counting of trees and analysis of geographical areas under cultivation) constitute an important instrument but nevertheless one that is insufficient for the purposes of effective, reliable evaluation of the production aid schemes; whereas, therefore, such controls should be supplemented, in accordance with the conclusions drawn by the Court of Auditors, by data concerning quantities processed by olive mills,

G. whereas some Member States have failed to establish the olive cultivation register (OCR), which was originally introduced in the Community of 9 Member States in 1975, in spite of considerable financial support provided by the Community to that effect; whereas work on the setting up of the Geographi- cal Information System (GIS), introduced as a control facilitating tool, is behind schedule,

H. whereas the Commission has been applying decreased financial corrections under the clearance of accounts procedure (see paragraph 59 of the Commission’s replies),

(1) OJ C 215, 27.7.2000. (2) OJ C 147, 27.5.1999. (3) OJ L 210, 28.7.1998, pp. 32 and 38. C 34 E/368 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Thursday 17 May 2001 I. whereas, according to the Commission (see reply to paragraph 33), official statistics indicate that promotional programmes have had a positive effect on consumption of olive oil, although no confirm- ation of this assertion could be provided by a general evaluation of these programmes,

J. whereas obligations under the support scheme for olive oil (cultivation declarations, aid applications, need for producers to notify any changes in the data concerning their activities) are particularly complex and heavy; whereas this is one of the reasons for the poor quality of statistical data,

K. whereas it is necessary for the Commission to carry out an evaluation of the cost- effectiveness of the national control agencies, which are entrusted with the task of ensuring that Community legislation on olive oil is complied with at national level,

L. whereas, although consumption aid for olive oil was abolished as from 1 November 1998, considerable unduly paid amounts have yet to be recovered by national authorities for the period 1985-1998,

M. whereas, similarly, only a small part of export refunds unduly paid during the 1990-1998 period has been recovered by national authorities,

N. whereas there have been cases where ten years elapsed before proceedings for the recovery of wrongly paid sums were initiated; whereas, consequently, it is essential that the Commission set a deadline for recovery action, failing which any unrecovered amounts should be credited to the Community budget pending definitive judgements in sub-judice cases,

O. whereas the data provided by the Member States concerned on amounts to be recovered are far from reliable, thus requiring the Commission to act upon the relevant observations of the Court,

1. Calls on the Commission and the Council, in accordance with its resolution of 18 December 1997 (1) on the olive and olive oil sector, to respect the system of production aid which has proved to be the most suitable for this sector by operating efficiently and making it possible to maintain the olive sector, despite competition from other vegetable oils which receive a high level of support, and develop external markets without generating surpluses and which, in the production regions, has played a dual role as a market policy and as a driving force behind rural development;

2. Points out that, from the experience of the operation of the COM, it can be concluded that the COM has allowed a fair level of income for producers to be maintained, has promoted modernisation of farming and farms, improved product quality and helped to protect the environment;

3. Invites the Commission, in the context of the transitional measures proposed on 21 December 2000, to implement a regime based on reliable data with regard to quantities of olives processed and quantities of oil produced in mills; these figures may be backed up by data concerning the number of trees and the areas planted;

4. Considers that the new transitional regime must be considerably simplified in order to allow better and more efficient control and to relieve the excessive administrative burden on farmers;

5. Asks the Commission to clarify in what way the decision of 21 December 2000 to extend the current aid scheme for the olive oil sector addresses the findings by the Court of Auditors in its special report No 11/2000 and takes account of its recommendations;

6. Deplores some Member States’ persistent failure to introduce olive cultivation registers (OCR), in spite of considerable financial support provided by the Community to that effect;

7. Welcomes the Commission proposal to make, as from 1 November 2003, the payment of any olive oil support conditional on the completion of the geographic information system (which includes the olive cultivation register);

(1) OJ C 14, 19.1.1998, p. 190. 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/369

Thursday 17 May 2001 8. Recalls its position of 16 June 2000 (1) concerning an integrated control system for Community aid schemes, which proposed the inclusion of olive oil in the list of products covered by the Integrated Administration and Control System (IACS) as an effective means of management and control;

9. Invites the Commission to change its position and to include olive oil in the IACS;

10. Regrets the Commission’s decisions to apply decreased financial corrections under the clearance of accounts procedure to some Member States;

11. Notes the Commission’s appraisal of official statistics indicating that promotional programmes have had a positive effect on olive oil consumption; demands, however, that hard facts and not vague conclusions should be presented when € 135,9 million of funds destined to olive oil production aid has been used for these and other programmes, and therefore asks for a global evaluation of their efficiency;

12. Asks the Commission to create a single promotional scheme, taking into account the current dis- cussion on harmonisation of the twelve existing promotional schemes in agriculture;

13. Notes that consumption aid for olive oil has been abolished since 1 November 1998; deplores that, nevertheless, considerable unduly paid amounts have yet to be recovered by national authorities for the 1985-1998 period;

14. Deplores, similarly, that only a small part of export refunds unduly paid during the 1990-1998 period has been recovered by national authorities;

15. Regrets the excessively long periods, up to ten years, which have elapsed before proceedings for the recovery of wrongly paid sums were initiated; consequently urges the Commission to set up a deadline for recovery action;

16. Deplores that the dissuasive effect of penalties and fines is diluted due to the fact that these are paid by national treasuries rather than by beneficiaries of wrongly received sums;

17. Urges the Commission to propose an integrated strategy for improved recovery of unduly paid amounts, accompanied by an action plan and timetable, based on Article 280 of the Treaty, ensuring an equivalent protection of the Community’s financial interests in all the Member States;

18. Urges Member States to follow up the suggestion of the Court of Auditors (paragraph 101) to introduce measures to deal with administrative/judicial appeals;

19. Asks the Commission to act upon the Court of Auditors’ observations (paragraphs 96-106) concerning the reliability and completeness of data on amounts to be recovered;

20. Asks the Commission to enshrine in Community legislation the requirement of keeping debtor accounts;

21. Recalls its resolution of 21 April 1993 containing the comments which form part of the decision giving discharge to the Commission for the 1991 financial year (2), in which it called upon the Commis- sion to suspend payments in respect of olive oil if satisfactory controls were not guaranteed by the Member States within a reasonable time-scale;

22. Invites all the EU institutions and bodies, in particular OLAF, the European Court of Auditors and the Commission, as well as the Member States, to give the highest priority to and to treat as a matter of urgency, the fight against olive oil fraud, in particular with regard to the unlawful addition of hazelnut oil to olive oil

(1) OJ C 67, 1.3.2001, p. 324. (2) OJ C 150, 31.5.1993, p. 104. C 34 E/370 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Thursday 17 May 2001 (i) Specifically, invites the Commission to: (a) present legislation proposals to stiffen rules against falsification of olive oil as soon as possible; (b) give the highest priority in European research and development to new methods of detecting falsifications of olive oil, namely through the use of hazelnut oil; (c) create a pan-European black list of any economic agent involved in the falsification of olive oil and other food products and to cancel immediately any financial support to them.

(ii) Invites the Court of Auditors to produce a special report on this issue;

(iii) Invites the Member States to give the higest priority to this question;

23. Recalls that the European Union is now paying as much as 25 % of traditional own resources collected to pay customs collection costs; it is therefore unacceptable that falsified olive oil evades customs controls;

24. Invites the Commission to study the feasibility of an integrated computerised system that would make it possible to carry out effective and timely monitoring of the movements of oil products between operators;

25. Asks the Commission to prohibit, in the framework of the current revision of Regulation (EC) 2815/98 (1), the placing on the market of olive oil without a label, and to provide for the product’s origin to be determined not by the place where it is produced but by the place where it is harvested;

26. Notes that although the elimination of public storage has resulted in average annual savings of € 26 million, this result might have been outweighed by a decline in market prices and, consequently, on producers’ earnings;

27. Shares the Court of Auditors’ criticism of the unreliability and ineffectiveness of exclusive reliance on oil yields as a method of controlling production aid;

28. Regrets that, although the Commission said in its answers to the Court of Auditors that improving the system of control would be one of the main aspects of the proposed reform it would be presenting in the second half of 2000, the proposal does not seek to change the control system in any way;

29. Expresses its surprise at the Commission’s reply as to the reliability of the International Olive Oil Council’s statistics, and asks the Commission for details of the new elements that permitted changing production and stocks at the eightieth session of the IOOC; is also surprised that the stocks resulting from these stock corrections did not have any effect on either the markets or intervention; asks the Com- mission to explain the role of yields in the review carried out at the eightieth IOOC session;

30. Considers that budgetary constraints, inconsistencies of the system and anticipated structural surpluses should not be the only concerns of the reform of the COM in olive oil since the income of olive growers must remain the basic concern, in accordance with the Treaty;

31. Stresses that it is important for some important objectives to be taken in consideration in the new COM, such as promoting environmental protection, rural life and communities, the historical and patri- monial value of olive oil trees, the need to privilege the income of small farmers and rurally depressed regions, the aim of market balance, promoting quality by fighting fraud, effective protection for Commun- ity products, and an appropriate type of institutional promotion in order to increase consumption;

32. Strongly advises the Commission to consider the need to streamline bureaucratic procedures, since the transitional reform has increased the administrative burden on operators and public administrations;

(1) OJ L 349, 24.12.1998, p. 56. 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/371

Thursday 17 May 2001 33. Notes with concern, that there is an overall EU budgetary tendency within the COM in oil and fats to lower the relative weight of olive oil support schemes; considers the importance of olive oil to overall rural policy objectives to outweigh the importance of any oilseed production, and invites the Commission to give due consideration to this fact;

34. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission and the European Court of Auditors, as well as the governments, parliaments and Courts of Auditors of the Member States concerned.

10. Estimates of European Parliament

A5-0166/2001

European Parliament resolution on the estimates of revenue and expenditure of Parliament for the financial year 2002 (2001/2062(BUD))

The European Parliament,

having regard to Article 272 of the EC Treaty,

having regard to its resolution of 3 April 2001 on the guidelines for the 2002 budgetary procedure: Section II Council; Section IV Court of Justice; Section V Court of Auditors; Section VI Economic and Social Committee; Section VII Committee of the Regions, and Section VIII Ombudsman and on the European Parliament’s preliminary draft estimates (Section I) for 2002 (2000/2325(BUD)) (1),

having regard to the Secretary-General’s report to the Bureau on the preliminary draft estimates of the European Parliament for the 2002 financial year,

having regard to the preliminary draft estimates established by the Bureau on 2 April 2001 pursuant to Rules 22(5) and (6) and 183 of its Rules of Procedure,

having regard to the provisions of the Financial Regulation, the declaration on the presentation of an analytical budget, and the interinstitutional conclusions on the rationalisation of administrative expenditure (2),

having regard to the report of the Committee on Budgets (A5-0166/2001).

Economic and general framework

A. whereas economic forecasts project 2,5 % growth in the European Union’s economy for 2002 and an inflation rate of 2 %; whereas the European Parliament must continue a policy of budgetary rigour,

B. whereas the ceiling in heading 5 (‘Administrative expenditure’) of the financial perspective is fixed at € 5 179 million (after technical adjustments) and whereas the margin under the financial perspective will be increasingly under pressure as a result of additional needs in the European institutions,

C. whereas Parliament has decided to budget 20 % of heading 5 of the financial perspective in its estimates, which corresponds to a total of € 1 035 million and to an increase of 4,8 % over the 2001 budget; whereas the decision to budgetise the full margin available to it in heading 5 enables Parlia- ment to proceed with investments in buildings property that are financially sound and beneficial in the short and long term,

D. whereas the 2002 estimates are based on the following parameters: 40 working weeks, 12 ordinary part-sessions, 6 additional part-sessions, a duration of 4 days of part-sessions in Strasbourg, 6 % inter-

(1) ‘Texts Adopted’, Item 10. (2) OJ C 308, 20.11.1995, p. 122. C 34 E/372 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Thursday 17 May 2001 est rate, 2,7 % adjustment of salaries and 6,5 % standard abatement; whereas the Secretary-General is called on to present updated estimates in time for Parliament’s first reading if parameters change,

E. whereas Parliament, in the light of the Treaty of Amsterdam, its ever increasing political importance and the coming enlargement, should single-mindedly press ahead with further modernising and increasing the efficiency of its working methods and structures,

Enlargement

1. Underlines the fact that preparations for the forthcoming enlargement will pose a challenge to all institutions and will have a major impact on heading 5 (‘Administrative expenditure’) of the financial perspective; recalls that the Interinstitutional Agreement of 6 May 1999 on budgetary discipline and improvement of the budgetary procedure provides that the European Parliament and the Council will jointly adjust the financial perspective to take account of the expenditure requirement resulting from this enlargement;

2. Recognises that preparing Parliament and its Administration for enlargement by the next European election in 2004 requires extremely careful examination of all additional needs that may arise; welcomes the fact that, in this connection, the Bureau has tasked a Bureau working party with analysing the necessary Parliament preparations for enlargement on the basis of a three-year plan which Parliament is endea- vouring to have circulated before 30 June 2001, thus enabling the results, in so far as they affect the financial year 2002, to be incorporated into current budget deliberations;

3. Takes note of the Bureau’s working assumption that Parliament should be prepared to welcome new Members of 12 candidate countries by 2004; considers it imperative that Parliament’s working methods and the allocation of resources be optimised and the efficiency of the Administration further improved with a view to enlargement;

4. Insists that Parliament must define what its core activities and priorities are and carry out the necessary reforms with a view to enlargement; takes the view that it is essential to inform in situ the citizens of the candidate countries about enlargement and Parliament’s activities before accession; awaits with interest the results of the Bureau working party on the question of setting up permanent information offices and a report from the Secretary-General on the full administrative and operational consequences thereof in good time for its deliberations in autumn 2001; instructs its Secretary-General to explore, in the process, all possibilities for cooperation with the Commission with a view to reducing duplication of effort;

5. Instructs the Bureau to examine, within the framework of the three-year plan to prepare for enlargement, the possibilities for allowing Members of Parliament of the candidate countries with whom negotiations have been opened to be involved in the work of its parliamentary committees;

6. Takes the view that the 2002 budget must allow its Administration to initiate preparatory measures for enlargement (inter alia further training on the spot), including the linguistic sector; insists that those measures should be in line with the decisions taken by the budgetary authority; refuses to accept recruitment of officials from individual candidate countries before accession treaties are concluded; calls on its Bureau and its Secretary-General to cooperate closely with the Commission on the preparations for enlargement; notes that Parliament will have to be prepared to cover at least minimum democratic requirements for each new Member State as far as translation is concerned; recognises also that there is room for further improvements as far as the interpretation services are concerned;

7. Is prepared, under the circumstances, to consider the budgetary implications of preparations for enlargement, in so far as they affect the financial year 2002, as part of the budget deliberations in October 2001; 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/373

Thursday 17 May 2001 Green housekeeping

8. Welcomes the Bureau’s proposal to enter an amount of € 300 000 against Article 260 (‘Limited consultations, studies and surveys, STOA programme’) earmarked for an eco-audit, in accordance with Parlia- ment’s resolution on the guidelines for 2002; stresses that Parliament must commit itself to participate in EMAS (Regulation on a Community Eco-Management and Audit Scheme) and take all the necessary steps to comply with it;

Buildings policy

9. Welcomes the Bureau’s proposal to enter a reserve for property investments in Article 209 (‘Pro- visional appropriation to cover the institution’s property investments’) for the accelerated repayment of buildings, as this will continue to produce major savings for the taxpayer; can agree, as a financially sound measure, to accelerated funding of the Louise Weiss Building in Strasbourg before the full impact of enlargement-related expenditure in Parliament’s section of the budget takes effect, as advice from Par- liament’s Legal Service confirms that these arrangements will not pre-empt any future political decisions, nor will it have any effect on the current legal situation;

10. Reiterates that all options must be carefully examined in Brussels to prepare Parliament’s building stock for enlargement; insists that the relevant political decisions must be guided by the principles of transparency, legality and cost-effectiveness and may only be taken after a call for expressions of interest has been carried out;

11. Notes the Bureau’s proposal to increase appropriations against Article 204 (‘Fitting-out of premises’) to finance inter alia renovation work in the Schuman Building in Luxembourg and the Winston Churchill Building in Strasbourg; considers that the need for the requested appropriations has not been sufficiently established; decides, therefore, to place an amount of € 700 000 against Article 204 in the reserve; points out that the release of these appropriations can be considered at first reading, provided that the necessary information is submitted in good time to the budgetary authority;

Statute for Members of Parliament

12. Hopes that Parliament and Council will adopt a Statute for Members of the European Parliament as soon as possible; recognises that the statute for Members may in all probability not come into effect in the course of the financial year 2002; agrees therefore to enter a token entry in Chapter 102 (‘Reserve for the Statute for Members’) in order to provide a transparent budget;

13. Hopes that it will adopt a Statute for Members’ Assistants;

Staff policy

14. Regrets that the European institutions are still lagging behind in comparison with best practice in some Member States as regards non-discrimination measures; takes the view that a modern civil service ought to ensure that equal treatment within the meaning of Article 13 of the Treaty is well established in its staff policy; instructs its Secretary-General to submit a report by 1 September 2001 on what measures Parliament can take on its own initiative, in parallel to the measures that may be decided upon in the context of the revision of the Staff Regulations;

15. Authorises expenditure for additional staff amounting to € 909 746 and places an amount of € 59 902 in the reserve; considers that the following posts could be financed with this envelope: 2 A3, 7 A7, 9 B3, 7 B5 and 4 C5 (1 A7 and 1 B5 in the reserve); expects to be informed by the Bureau on its decision as regards the establishment plan and the corresponding allocation of posts;

16. Agrees to the provision of the necessary funding to create 12 temporary B5 posts in the political group secretariats to meet the political groups’ requirements which have consistently grown as a result of the entry into force of the Treaty of Amsterdam and the increase in the European Parliament’s political significance; C 34 E/374 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Thursday 17 May 2001 17. Has decided to consider all the conversion of posts during the budget deliberations in autumn 2001; instructs its Secretary-General to provide additional information to the proposed conversions before 1 July 2001;

18. Welcomes the latest measures proposed by the Secretary-General as regards Parliament’s staff mobility policy, which aim at giving junior officials the opportunity to gather relevant experience in different sections of Parliament with increased mobility, while allowing the institution to benefit more from senior officials’ expertise with longer mobility thresholds; considers, nevertheless, that mobility policy should continue to include all staff in order to develop a flexible and dynamic service;

19. Reiterates also that the loss of human capital as a result of mobility still remains to be addressed systematically; instructs its Secretary-General to present a comprehensive training policy for Parliament’s staff by 1 September 2001 which takes into account the results of the interim external report on the working methods and staff structure of Parliament’s Administration; considers that the training measures taken so far are not sufficient to provide Members with the best possible assistance and know-how;

Miscellaneous

20. Notes that the current contract with external transport companies are subject to annual renewal; notes also that the cost of providing transport for Members by external companies in Strasbourg and Brussels has increased considerably over the last years; recalls that the institutions have been invited in its above-mentioned resolution on the 2002 guidelines to present mobility plans; instructs its Bureau in this context, to examine also alternative options for transportation of Members, in order to adopt a more cost-effective and environmentally sustainable transportation system; insists, in the meantime, that the current rules governing the transportation of Members are strictly implemented;

21. Takes note of the Bureau’s proposal to enter € 800 000 in Item 1840 (‘Current operating expenditure’) in Article 184 (‘Restaurants and canteens’); is of the opinion that an amount of € 450 000 shall be earmarked to cover the cost of geographical dispersion of Parliament’s activities and an amount of € 350 000 as a cash-buffer;

22. Instructs its Bureau to revise the rules concerning access to the canteens and restaurants of Parlia- ment as a measure to further improve the operational result of the sector; instructs its Administration to submit annually before 30 April a report on the sector and on the measures to be taken to improve the operational result;

23. Instructs its Administration to achieve further progress towards a reduction of the overall cost of missions of staff between the three working places of Parliament; decides, therefore, to enter an amount of € 1 million against Item 1301 (‘Mission expenses’) in the reserve; recalls that an amount of € 4 546 000 was placed in the reserve in the 2001 budget, pending the submission of a report on measures aimed at a further reduction in the cost of missions;

24. Has decided to increase the appropriation against Article 253 (‘Miscellaneous expenditure on the organisation of and participation in conferences, congresses and meetings’) by € 300 000;

25. Instructs the Conference of Presidents to take the budgetary consequences into account before deciding on the annual work programme of interparliamentary delegations and delegations to Joint Parlia- mentary Committees; insists that ad hoc delegations should only be authorised in very exceptional circumstances which could not have been foreseen in the annual work programme and provided that the costs remain within the given budgetary envelope; instructs the Conference of Presidents, in view of the forthcoming mid-term review of Parliament’s committee structure, to examine in that context the mission statement of interparliamentary delegations and delegations to Joint Parliamentary Committees;

26. Takes the view that there is room for further productivity increases and further specialisation in the translation services of all institutions, including Parliament’s; agrees that best practice in some sectors should be taken as a performance target for all; considers also that the revision of Parliament’s working 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/375

Thursday 17 May 2001 methods should lead to a reduction of the overall volume of pages to be translated; decides to place € 1 million against Item 1872 (‘Other services and work sent out for translation and typing’) in the reserve; points out that these appropriations may only be released if the need for them is duly demonstrated;

27. Reserves its position as regards the appropriations requested until Parliament’s first reading; agrees nevertheless to a total amount of € 1 035 000 000 for the estimates under the 2002 budget, which represents 20 % of heading 5 (‘Administrative expenditure’) of the financial perspective, as specified in the Annex;

28. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council and the Commission.

Thursday 17 May 2001 D. considering that the government of Republika Srpska could have been much more active with regard to the return of Bosniac and Croat refugees, which has been comparatively very slow in this region; recalling at the same time that Croatia also has to facilitate the return of Serb refugees,

E. recalling that the 500 year-old Ferhadija Mosque in Banja Luka, a masterpiece of Islamic culture, was destroyed by Serb nationalists in 1993 at a time when there was no war in Banja Luka but there was ethnic cleansing of Muslims and Croats in this part of Bosnia-Herzegovina,

Thursday 17 May 2001 J. concerned about the campaign conducted by some repressive regimes, namely Pakistan, Iran and China, to deny and penalise their citizens’ access to the Internet in order to prevent the distribution of embarrassing information and communications about them,

K. taking into account the OSCE statement on the occasion of World Press Freedom Day, expressing its deep concern about the media situation in the OSCE region,

Thursday 17 May 2001 16. Forced labour by African children

B5-0359, 0365, 0372, 0379 and 0389/2001

European Parliament resolution on child trafficking in Africa

The European Parliament,

recalling its previous resolutions on child trafficking and on the trafficking of human beings,

having regard to ILO Convention 182 on the worst forms of child labour and to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child,

having regard to the meeting of the International Cocoa Association, which brings together 42 consumer and producer countries, held in London to consider ways of resolving this problem,

A. whereas child trafficking is now a growing problem in parts of Africa, in particular in West Africa, and whereas, according to Unicef, some 200 000 children are trafficked every year in West and Cen- tral Africa,

B. appalled that these children are for sale in West African countries as both domestic and commercial labour and also for sexual exploitation,

C. whereas low world prices for cocoa and other commodities have contributed to the use of cheap child labour,

D. whereas a Nigerian-registered ship (Etireno) carrying 43 children and adolescents returned to the port of Cotonou on 16 April 2001 after being refused permission to dock in Gabon and Cameroon, and whereas this boat had left the port of Cotonou at the end of March,

E. whereas it is not yet completely clear whether all the children on board the Etireno were victims of child trafficking, although this seemed to be the case for at least 13 children found on the ship,

F. whereas poverty is the main cause of this phenomenon,

G. having regard to the primary responsibility of the governments of all countries concerned to implement fully the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child,

H. concerned that some multinational companies indirectly use child labour to reduce the market price in industrialised countries,

I. having regard to the share of responsibility borne by consumers from wealthy countries, who must consider the conditions under which the products they consume are cultivated,

J. whereas long-term policies which provide third-world producers with a decent income are essential,

1. Calls on the states which have still not ratified the Convention on the Rights of the Child and the Convention on the Worst Forms of Child Labour to ratify and implement both as soon as possible;

2. Urges the authorities of Benin to investigate this incident seriously so as to determine the real truth concerning the Etireno and to take all appropriate measures to prevent acts of child trafficking in the future; calls on all countries in West and Central Africa to combat more aggressively all forms of child trafficking;

3. Urges all countries to assume their full responsibility when ships carrying child slaves try to dock in their harbours; urges the port security authorities of the countries involved to pay more attention to the issue of human cargo; C 34 E/384 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

17. Floods in France

B5-0382, 0383, 0390, 0391 and 0392/2001

European Parliament resolution on the floods in France

The European Parliament,

A. having regard to the severe climatic conditions and the torrential rain which has fallen in France, in particular the Somme region, where the rainfall was three times the normal level between October 2000 and April 2001,

B. whereas dozens of communes were submerged and thousands of people evacuated,

C. having regard to the seriousness of the damage caused to infrastructure, crops and housing, currently totalling hundreds of millions of euros,

D. whereas the damage directly affects families and their property, but also businesses (craftsmen, SMEs, industries and farmers) and the countryside,

E. concerned at the frequency of climatic disasters, which may be linked to the climate changes caused by pollution,

1. Expresses its feelings of solidarity with all the people affected;

2. Welcomes the show of solidarity and the efforts made to assist the victims of the floods, especially on the part of the public authorities, politicians, public services, firemen, soldiers and volunteers; 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/385

Thursday 17 May 2001 3. Welcomes the Commission’s undertaking to introduce flexible measures for farmers, especially as regards sowing;

4. Calls on the Commission to grant, in agreement with the French Government and the local authorities, exceptional financial aid to supplement the appropriations earmarked by the French authorities to meet the urgent needs of the communities hardest hit, to restore the destroyed infrastructure and help to relaunch economic activity;

18. Mutual recognition of final decisions in criminal matters

A5-0145/2001

European Parliament resolution on the Commission communication to the Council and the Euro- pean Parliament on the mutual recognition of final decisions in criminal matters (COM(2000) 495 C5-0631/2000 2000/2295(COS))

The European Parliament,

having regard to the Commission communication (COM(2000) 495 C5-0631/2000),

having regard to Article 31 of the Treaty on European Union,

having regard to the conclusions of the Cardiff European Council of 15 and 16 June 1998 requesting the Council to identify the scope for applying the principle of mutual recognition of decisions,

having regard to point 45(f) of the Council and Commission Action Plan of 3 December 1998, which asks for the initiation of a process with a view to implementing this principle within two years of the entry into force of the Treaty of Amsterdam, C 34 E/386 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Thursday 17 May 2001 having regard to the conclusions of the Tampere European Council of 15/16 October 1999, which stated that the principle of mutual recognition should become the cornerstone of judicial cooperation in both civil and criminal matters within the Union,

having regard to the programme of measures to implement the principle of mutual recognition of decisions in criminal matters (1), approved by the Council and already included in the Commission’s scoreboard,

having regard to Rule 47(1) of its Rules of Procedure,

having regard to the report of the Committee on Citizens’ Freedoms and Rights, Justice and Home Affairs and the opinion of the Committee on Legal Affairs and the Internal Market (A5-0145/2001),

A. whereas the proposals contained in the Commission communication and the Council’s programme of measures would be a satisfactory basis for common action on judicial cooperation in criminal matters, as covered by Article 31 of the Treaty on European Union,

B. whereas the communication is aimed at introducing a mechanism to simplify procedures which will overcome the long delays in carrying out the request for recognition and will ultimately make requests for extradition largely superfluous and prevent conflicts of jurisdiction between Member States, as set out in Article 31 of the Treaty on European Union,

C. whereas the communication puts forward various possible solutions for introducing the principle of mutual recognition; whereas Parliament should select options for mutual recognition procedures that are less complex than those currently applying to requests,

D. whereas, in establishing a mutual recognition mechanism, one alternative would be to aim at a harmonisation of the Member States’ legislative, procedural and judicial systems, while another would be to seek mutual trust between Member States, to ensure not only the adequacy of the laws of individual states, but also the proper implementation of those laws in specific procedures,

E. whereas the first solution would be difficult to achieve, because each country’s judicial system is closely bound up with the history and form of its institutions and cultural factors; whereas a compromise between various types of judicial systems or acceptance of certain systems by the others would never be possible,

F. whereas the second solution would seem more feasible because, although different models are involved, the individual systems of the Member States are based on a set of procedural rules affording adequate guarantees and on satisfactory implementation of these rules such as to produce reliable criminal law decisions, which could therefore be implemented in the other Member States without the need for laborious and uncertain recognition procedures,

G. whereas, in practical terms, mutual recognition entails the power to implement in one Member State a final decision delivered by the competent authority in another Member State,

H. whereas mutual recognition of a final decision implies recognition of all preceding decisions, including pre-trial orders,

I. whereas rules covering pre-trial orders differ considerably from one Member State to another,

J. whereas mutual recognition aims to guarantee legal certainty (which is inherent in the effective application of the law throughout the EU), bring about the offender’s social rehabilitation (avoiding uproot- ing him from the state in which he has chosen to live and where his family and work are) and to defend and respect the victim’s rights,

K. whereas mutual recognition and the measures needed to implement it, especially procedural measures, should be applied to all crimes, not only serious ones, in view of the difficulties of identification in the absence of a common concept of what constitutes a serious crime,

(1) OJ C 12, 15.1.2001, p. 10. 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/387

Thursday 17 May 2001 L. accepting the communication’s suggestion that a decision should be seen as final if it rules on the substance of a case and no further ordinary appeal against it is possible or, where such appeal is still possible, it has no suspensive effect,

M. whereas, in addition, ‘criminal matters’ should relate to a formal definition of criminal provisions, i.e. to positive criminal law; whereas, therefore, it should be linked to any provision which, under the laws of a Member State, is considered criminal and which links certain penalties, also defined as ‘criminal’, to prohibited acts,

N. whereas the definition of ‘criminal matters’ should not be affected by the type of authorities applying the provisions of criminal law (which could in fact be the administrative authorities), nor the way in which the criminal proceedings are resolved (e.g. agreements between prosecution services and the suspect) nor the legal nature of the person to whom the rule of criminal law is directed, who may be a legal person,

O. whereas clear rules will have to be laid down in cases in which a penalty must be enforced in a state other than the one which delivered the decision, with a view to preventing the offender having the discretion to choose the state in which the penalty is enforced,

P. whereas the decision to be recognised should be translated and communicated rapidly; whereas, therefore, it would be appropriate to agree on the use of a limited number of better-known languages, following the practice of various international bodies,

Q. whereas, in order to avoid double jeopardy, to apply provisions on recidivism and multiple sentences, as well as to avoid conflicts, it is necessary to be aware of both final decisions and pending procedures; whereas, therefore, it would be useful to form a network of national judicial registers and to computerise registers of pending procedures,

R. whereas the principle of ‘ne bis in idem’ should be fully respected; whereas, to this end, the ‘idem’ should be interpreted as ‘the same fact’ in the broad and substantive sense, irrespective of the fact’s legal status, while wherever there are two different decisions, the one that is more favourable to the offender should be applied,

S. whereas, in order to apply mutual recognition correctly, it will be necessary to adopt some common rules to govern cases of double jeopardy (‘ne bis in idem’), persistent crime, multiple penalties, the resolution of conflicts of jurisdiction, as well as rules on the maintenance of registers of offenders and pending procedures, the translation of decisions, recidivism and anything else necessary to ensure that final decisions can have substantially similar effects throughout the territory of the European Union,

T. whereas since registers of offenders and of pending procedures in particular will enable mutual access to extremely sensitive information, it is necessary that they be covered by clear rules on data protection,

U. whereas, as a result, it will be necessary to entrust the resolution of disputes over such cases to a central independent authority such as the Court of Justice of the European Communities,

V. whereas it will initially be difficult to reach agreement on a direct recognition procedure, since some common essential guarantees must be observed, such as respect for defence rights and victims’ rights, the exclusion of double jeopardy (‘ne bis in idem’) and the compatibility of the penalty to be enforced with the legal order of the state receiving the request (e.g. substitution of a life sentence by the maximum penalty provided for) and so preliminary consideration must first be given to see whether these guarantees are present before an implementation order is issued,

W. whereas, however, if a common area of freedom, security and justice is to become a reality, a system which enables the principle of direct mutual recognition of final decisions to be fully implemented will need to be established,

X. whereas a final sentence should constitute a precedent to be taken into account in all the Member States; whereas, in some cases which should be agreed on, if there are several convictions, particularly for offences which have some sort of connecting link, strict accumulation of sentences should not be applied, C 34 E/388 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Thursday 17 May 2001 Y. whereas, furthermore, since some offences are committed in several states, general jurisdictional rules should be introduced to regulate negative and positive conflicts, to avoid the duplication of proceedings and to regulate cases where it is advisable to have a single trial for the accused,

Z. whereas decisions which, under the law of the state in which they are delivered, concern minors or individuals suffering from mental abnormality should be excluded from the principle of mutual recognition,

AA. whereas the principle of dual criminality is accepted in almost all international agreements; whereas, as these make clear, it should be understood in a broad sense: not only as ‘double criminalisation’ (an act which in abstract terms is described as a breach of criminal law by the legislation of the requesting state and the state receiving the request) but also as an act which is punishable in concrete terms (an act whose author is not in a situation which rules out punishment),

AB. whereas accepting the principle of dual criminality in its wider sense would undoubtedly eliminate all possible cases of incompatibility between differing legal systems, but would make the recognition procedure considerably more cumbersome because the legal authority of the state receiving the request would be placed in the position of having to repeat the trial by reconsidering the decision on the substance of the case and its procedural aspects,

AC. whereas the Member States have laws which, although differing, ensure both that the offences which are of the greatest social concern are considered as crimes, and also a fair trial and respect for the rule of law; whereas, however, the principle of dual criminality would preclude the recognition of decisions on minor offences, in respect of which the same degree of homogeneity has not been achieved as for more serious offences,

AD. whereas, therefore, dual criminality should not be included in the essential guarantees which must regulate the application of mutual recognition, since maintaining this requirement would leave the problems substantially unchanged and would not be consistent with the line taken by the heads of State and Government, who consider mutual recognition to be a cornerstone in the creation of a common judicial area,

AE. whereas, however, at least in the initial stages, as a counter-balance to the removal of the principle of dual criminality, Member States should be granted a margin of independent decision-making by means of some safeguard provisions such as, in particular, the exclusion of a small number of types of crime (such as euthanasia) where it could be difficult to reach an agreement,

AF. whereas, furthermore, among the safeguard provisions should be rules concerning respect for the accused’s right to defence and the victims’ rights; whereas these provisions should be strictly demar- cated and defined so as not to entail a reconsideration of the decision on the substance of the case,

AG. whereas a certain enforcement of national law, in particular certain aspects of procedural law, may help build mutual trust and therefore limit Member States’ need for safeguards and preliminary consideration before an order is enforced,

AH. whereas the enforcement of penalties should be governed by the law of the state in which enforcement takes place; whereas, therefore, the safeguard provisions should include the possibility for the state itself to adjust the length of the sentence (e.g. not applying life sentences) and enforcement methods (e.g. the absence of solitary confinement) to its own specific system,

AI. whereas, as a result, the state receiving the request should have all the decision-making power on privileges or penalties connected with the conduct or personal circumstances of the offender, such as conditional release, permits to work or make visits outside and suspension of the enforcement of the sentence for health reasons,

AJ. whereas, on the other hand, all decisions regarding the extinguishing of a penalty or of an offence, pardons and amnesties should remain within the sphere of responsibility of the requesting state, 7.2.2002 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 34 E/389

Thursday 17 May 2001 AK. whereas the costs of enforcing penalties should be borne by the state receiving the request in order to avoid red tape, controversies and disputes, and in the belief that, in a European Union open to the free movement of individuals, in the long term these costs will be set off against each other overall,

AL. whereas it is essential that, in the event of a change to the penalty, or its termination, the rights of victims and their families are taken into account, including the right to be informed promptly, adequate physical protection and respect for their dignity, which may be achieved by imposing on the offender a specific prohibition on entering certain parts of EU territory,

AM. whereas recognition of disqualifications should only apply when these can also fulfil their function of social protection and rehabilitation in the state receiving the request,

1. Considers that the principle of mutual recognition should apply to all crimes, including those for which only pecuniary penalties are prescribed, apart from any necessary exceptions;

2. Considers that, as a result, the measures in the Council’s programme should apply to all crimes;

3. Requests that a decision should be seen as final if it rules on the substance of a case (even if this is following a settlement by agreement between the suspect and prosecution services) and no further ordinary appeal against the decision is possible or, where such appeal is still possible, it has no suspensive effect;

4. Calls on the Commission, before presenting legal instruments, to identify the problems which arise in practice owing to shortcomings in the implementation of final decisions in criminal matters;

5. Considers that the release of a suspect during investigations should not be considered as a final decision if it is still possible to reopen proceedings subsequently;

6. Calls on the Commission to determine those substantive legal and procedural areas in which minimum standards are necessary;

7. Considers that the definition of the term ‘criminal matters’ should relate to positive criminal law and therefore to any provision which, under the laws of the relevant Member State, is considered as such; considers also that neither the type of authorities (e.g. administrative authorities) enforcing the penalty, the way in which the criminal proceedings are resolved nor the legal nature of the person against whom the penalty is enforced should have any influence thereon;

8. Requests that clear rules be laid down to define the cases in which the penalty may be enforced in a state other than the one in which the decision was delivered, with a view to preventing the offender having the discretion to choose;

9. Calls on the Commission to submit a plan for establishing a registry of pending and concluded procedures specifying, in particular, the form of data collection, access to data and data protection;

10. Requests that, with a view to prompt awareness of the existence of the decision to be recognised, the use of two or three more widely-used languages is agreed to for translation purposes, following the practice in certain international bodies such as the European Court of Human Rights and the UN;

11. Requests that, for exchanges of information on final sentences, the option of forming a network of national registers is chosen and calls on the Member States to take appropriate measures to make information on pending procedures accessible as well;

12. Requests that a future network of national registers and mutual access to information on pending cases should be subject to clear rules on data protection;

13. Requests that in a system of mutual recognition full respect is shown for the principle of ‘ne bis in idem’ and that, in order to apply this principle correctly, the ‘idem’ which is the object of the second decision should be interpreted as ‘the same fact’ in the broad and substantive sense, irrespective of its legal status; C 34 E/390 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 7.2.2002

Thursday 17 May 2001 14. Considers, as a result, that wherever there is a second (or further) trial and a final sentence is handed down for the ‘same fact’, the decision that is more favourable to the offender should be applied;

15. Considers that a final sentence in one Member State should constitute a precedent to be taken into account in the event of a further conviction in another Member State, and should therefore give rise to the application of provisions on recidivism;

16. Requests that common rules be established with a view to ensuring that, where there are several convictions in two or more Member States (particularly for offences which have some sort of connecting link), strict accumulation of sentences is not always applied;

17. Considers that general jurisdictional rules should be introduced in order to regulate negative and positive conflicts in this area, to avoid the duplication of proceedings and to regulate cases where it would be advisable to have a single trial;

18. Requests that the resolution of all possible disputes between the Member States’ judicial authorities concerning mutual recognition be entrusted to a central independent authority such as the Court of Justice of the European Communities;

19. Considers that final decisions in which the mental abnormality or legal minority of the offender are recognised should be excluded from the scope of recognition;

20. Considers that the precondition of dual criminality should be abolished and that, at the same time, as a safeguard provision, agreement should be reached on a restricted number of crimes to which mutual recognition would not apply;

21. Considers, furthermore, that additional safeguard provisions should be included concerning respect for the right to defence and the victims’ rights, strictly defined so as not to entail a reconsideration of the decision on the substance of the case;

22. Considers that in order to prevent too many safeguard provisions from being included and at the same time to guarantee a common level of protection of fundamental rights protection throughout the EU, Member States should agree on common minimum standards for certain aspects of procedural law;

23. Calls on the Commission to involve the candidate countries in drawing up a system of mutual recognition of final decisions in criminal matters;

24. Requests that the enforcement of custodial penalties be governed by the law of the state in which enforcement takes place, with the possibility of adjusting the length of the sentence and enforcement methods, and that no requests be made for the enforcement of a penalty which does not exist in that state (e.g. community service or other similar service);

25. Requests, furthermore, that the state in which enforcement takes place should take all decisions connected with the conduct or personal circumstances of the offender, such as conditional release, permits to work or make visits outside and suspension of the enforcement of the sentence for health reasons;

26. Requests that, on the other hand, decisions regarding the extinguishing of a penalty or an offence, pardons and amnesties should remain within the sphere of responsibility of the requesting state;

27. Requests that, in the event of a change to the penalty, or its termination, the rights of victims are taken into account, including the right to prompt information and adequate physical protection;

28. Considers that the costs of enforcing custodial and pecuniary penalties should be borne by the state in which enforcement takes place since in the long term these costs will be balanced over all the Member States;

29. Considers that the principle of mutual recognition of disqualifications should apply when it can also fulfil a function of social protection and rehabilitation in the state in which enforcement takes place;

30. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council and Commission.
