    European Community No. 26/1984 July 10, 1984 Contact: Ella Krucoff (202) 862-9540 THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT: 1984 ELECTION RESULTS :The newly elected European Parliament - the second to be chosen directly by European voters -- began its five-year term last month with an inaugural session in Strasbourg~ France. The Parliament elected Pierre Pflimlin, a French Christian Democrat, as its new president. Pflimlin, a parliamentarian since 1979, is a former Prime Minister of France and ex-mayor of Strasbourg. Be succeeds Pieter Dankert, a Dutch Socialist, who came in second in the presidential vote this time around. The new assembly quickly exercised one of its major powers -- final say over the European Community budget -- by blocking payment of a L983 budget rebate to the United Kingdom. The rebate had been approved by Community leaders as part of an overall plan to resolve the E.C.'s financial problems. The Parliament froze the rebate after the U.K. opposed a plan for covering a 1984 budget shortfall during a July Council of Ministers meeting. The issue will be discussed again in September by E.C. institutions. Garret FitzGerald, Prime Minister of Ireland, outlined for the Parliament the goals of Ireland's six-month presidency of the E.C. Council. Be urged the representatives to continue working for a more unified Europe in which "free movement of people and goods" is a reality, and he called for more "intensified common action" to fight unemployment. Be said European politicians must work to bolster the public's faith in the E.C., noting that budget problems and inter-governmental "wrangles" have overshadolted the Community's benefits.

They long to know what the decision-makers are thinking, so they can plan ahead. They yearn to be in the loop, to have the drop on things. It is the genius of the lobbyists and the consultants to understand this need, and to satisfy it in the most imaginative way. Business forums are vehicles for forging links and maintain a dialogue with business, industrial and trade organisations. They allow the discussions of general and pre-legislative issues in a different context from lobbying contacts about specific matters. They provide an opportunity to get Members of the European Parliament and other decision-makers from the European institutions together with various business sectors.

Considerando que cerca de 14 millones de personas en la Unión Europea y entre el 1 y el 3 % de la población mundial total sufre de fibromialgia, un síndrome debilitante que causa dolores crónicos generalizados, B. Considerando que, aunque la Organización Mundial de la Salud reconoció la fibromialgia como enfer­ medad ya en 1992, esta patología no está incluida en el índice oficial de patologías en la UE, lo cual impide a los pacientes obtener un diagnóstico oficial, C. Considerando que las personas que sufren de fibromialgia acuden con más frecuencia al médico de cabe­ cera, son remitidos con mayor frecuencia a especialistas, reciben más certificados de baja por enfermedad y son hospitalizados con mayor frecuencia, lo que genera una carga económica considerable para la UE, D. Considerando que los pacientes de fibromialgia tienen que luchar por llevar una vida plena e indepen­ diente, a menos que tengan acceso a un tratamiento y un apoyo adecuados, 1.
