we are well aware that the existing treaties are inadequate and another , more efficient structure for the union must be developed , namely a more marked with a clear demarcation between the powers of the member states and the powers of the union . constitutionally structure henceforth this is the first place embassies of concern about the economic and social problems which we face in spite of constant growth as a result exertions experience from all our fellow citizens . the current situation , particularly for many self-employed hauliers , for agriculture is intolerable that we must in any event , be improved . the understanding of the procedure itself , this is a good thing , but we must ensure that the system is not as a political schlagwaffe can be used . they also have the right evident in the view that they must comply with . i agree with his warning of for some tempting six-monthly return to the methods of intergovernmental cooperation . many of us want to see a federation of nation states choked . it also implies that every its proper place . the rapporteur , the level of debate and also stressed the need to go any further . i can only agree with you selfevident . the latter , i would like to say that one of the parties involved to deal with them and they must , as a political speech must always be realistic and has always been kräftesituation and all of us desired objectives into account . speech before forces studying familiarise weigh i would like to say that we in this closer cooperation in order to address a few examples of the new europe 's capacity to provide . the vote will take place today at 12.30 p.m . amendment no 12 , the commission must reject . i shall be voting for the adoption of the regelungsentwurfs . indeed , the reports of the european court of auditors constantly to dispense with low , pointed out the details of greece , portugal constantly occur before . we have therefore voted in favour of this report . the supporters are not only cheaper and worldwide , but also insofar as their fuel consumption per passenger is lower . outlaw such buses applicable environmentally-friendly the report also calls for defining benchmarks , with a view to the dissemination of best practices in the eu level . a binding and comprehensive charter with enforceable rights could later to lead to difficulties . i thank them for their splendid work . we shall be voting believe not , however , that he has been less than three months in nice completed this reason alone we will not in favour of the charter at the nice summit in the treaty . post-1999 can . the csu-europagruppe welcomes the fact that the present draft of the charter of citizens with regard to the institutions and bodies of the eu corresponding rights concisely and visible to be made . it is a reflection of the emerging liberal europe . because i had hoped that this charter further work will , as many ngos from various countries of the union have proposed . ( a5-0248 / 2000 ) by mr queiró on hungary [ com ( 1999 ) 505 - c5-0028 / 2000 - 2175 ( cos ) ] ; 1997 ) that is why i wish you also propose that we as a parliament no longer present , but only to country , in order to make it clear that we are in favour of a differentiated progress of the negotiations next year 's general concern . it seems to me that it will be the french presidency on the basis of the work of the previous presidencies and the commission 's position - at least i hope that this is a fairly accurate overview of the accession process to vat-free . at the nice european council - 30.3 as has already been said , i should like to repeat that the french presidency will arise evade , does not mean that we have time and have the possibility of each of these difficulties auszudiskutieren . and here none of the this is a matter of course perfectly understandable , but we need to impeccably and precise answer it . it is a great perspective , which is what we need to deal with großherzigkeit and farsightedness . not every outcome of the intergovernmental conference would be the enormous pressure of enlargement equitably . the second major change which we are seeing and on which europe is the acceleration of economic development towards the global market and to global competition . arise from galloping fourthly , it follows another principle that the member states , which will subsequently have begun to a fair chance to which that used to have begun . aufzuschließen have where wideranging and long-term investments are necessary in order to achieve , should be borne in mind that the present members in these cases long transitional periods took to european standards . for coastguard and crime-fighting apply equally to our standards and the benefits of european cooperation . we look at the present trade between the european union and the central and eastern european countries . fortunately , the commissioner has at last give citizens first communicated to the fears which have been exhibiting unfounded , has spoken . but one thing is clear - and i welcome the fact that mr verheugen has stressed again : a transitional period for the observance of democratic rules cannot exist . that is why we need the help of the commission , because it lacks trifled with great determination sometimes the corresponding munitions . it is necessary to ensure that we as the european union goals can be put to the internal reforms to a conclusion . but there are some important points and questions which we disagree . this runs counter to the european union and its future independence in terms of north america and a common european defence and security policy , because it is also posing a threat to the relationship with russia and other countries . we hope , however results , and we want to see what is in preparation for enlargement must be done , not on another intergovernmental conference postponed . i shall be brief , as i have already done , as i said earlier in my first speech three minutes my speaking time does not have utilised . this is very important , and i am very pleased that the commission an information campaign is working , in the words of commissioner verheugen both comprehensively as well decentralized basis should be held . but - and this is my last word , because i would like to say that this is quite clear : i am not a pessimist on this issue , i am not at the time , i have a clear statement in favour of enlargement - in order to be credible , we must continue to be understood to be approved by the peoples of the peoples of the candidate countries as well as our peoples to win . seriously wants now i see no need , in connection with enlargement on the financial perspective to speak . no one can i say to you today ! the same reason incidentally , you have also expressed the wish to join the european union . we are now in the various rapporteurs to speak . i have been responsible task entrusted to the report on the request estonia 's accession to the european union at present . conservative i agree very much thrifty with taxpayers ' money to a.m . i believe , only then would have a hint of what the people of latvia in recent years it has done . this is not enough , the whole strategy must be geared more towards the citizens of europe . lithuania has great potential for a long-term economic growth . in the broadest sense , it is about cooperation between the european union with the russian federation . another point neuralgischer is support for the public in and outside the european union . as a result of astute fiscal amounted to inward investment in the last year , more than 5,45 billion euros . let us not get involved , not even we germans ! the slovak democratic evolving stable , and in this area we have had already been different experiences . in my speech i will be the six points in the development of the situation in hungary and rationalize which , under the banner of joining the european union are important . summarize that is why i am pleased that this issue in the general report by mr brok on enlargement has been included . this applies to no more than in the field of nuclear power , where the danger is that the lobby of kernkraftgegner the legitimate concerns in relation to nuclear safety and environmental protection for their own ends . usurpiert welfare sector i would like my colleagues in the advocacy of setting up a high-level group recommend . the report , which has also been adopted , will come to the conclusion of the territory of the legal authorities sphere , the copenhagen political criteria . unanimously in committee that part of the this is the key to our high representative for the cfsp , javier solana , to what we are talking of their own role of the commission naturally intact . the main problem is , however , still in the fact that the accession process by the government and opposition judged differently , and the european union attaches to the fact that this accession process . progressing steadily value malta even the united states of america and mexico below the level closer together . that is why we in the field of the internal market is sound , flexible and the challenge of a proper strategy . korea-eu i should also like to say that i have respect for the citizens in central and eastern european countries have , for ten years ago , have had the courage to draw attention to the strasse to go , and this process with got going have at this point . the information society is important for both old and the new industry . we must not let us also by the percentages of domestic legislation umgesetztes community law blenden . the 10 new eastern european countries have such a rich erbonkel not delivering . this applies equally to the - subhuman - transportation of live animals to the slaughterhouses . now we are working on a system for all the main acts an assessment of the health implications fully-fledged system . in my opinion , it must also be made clear that the european regional development fund cannot remain on the basis of a purely accountant dispersed among the regions and areas must be given to the european union and entered into . elmar brok was right in his speech by pointing out that we are all the beneficiary of enlargement will , in particular , we are on this side of the existing external frontier . instituted the binnenschiffverkehr is important for environmental reasons , because we massengüter away from the roads must be given and , if they cannot be on rail transport , then we must navigable benefits . also selfishness and not least populism have played a role , and the empowered eurokurs has outcome will certainly not positively influenced . our message to the candidate countries reads : do not by the scale of the reports and documents upset . unfortunately , have too many parties its ideological suffered abgestreift with the result that they too little ideals embody and to materialistisch are at present . it should be required , the unrestricted right to acquisition of grundstücken and eigenheimen , so we should do so . suspend it is hitherto existed , but it may be bureaucratic transparency and the obvious , but not public resistance of some governments jeopardised . where are incidentally the millions of jobs , the maastricht treaty should bring ? while we are still in the process of the treaties newcomer to take some of the next reform has been calling for . almost all international studies indicate in connection with enlargement on macroeconomic profit out . however , the main objective of slovenian policy - the earliest possible accession to the european union - apart from some non-significant minorities by any political grouping called into question . will the union 's enlargement swiftly implemented , it would be a large extent decentralised basis , as the group of the eldr group in its opinion on enlargement worded . it was clear that for the country paradigmatic stringently well-ordered anstaltsregime long-term consequences for the health of orphans there . i would ask you to support the corresponding amendments . and even we in the european politicians , have too little insight into the negotiating process . cyprus is almost as a bridge to the countries of the region function . i wish to abnegating continued success on this important area . the second type of communication between our countries and the applicant countries in order to try to explain the issues at stake in the european union . it is naturally important we cannot afford to yet more by impetus from the beginning of the 1990s to lose . mr president , firstly i would like to congratulate the rapporteur of the group of the party of european socialists for the report on romania 's rapporteur on her excellent product . for the institutions , for the member states , all of us are concerned , we have to face that challenge , but also the fears of our own public opinion has grown to demonstrate , once again to the vision of the founding fathers of europe . strength to ambition ; and unfortunately i have the impression that this enlargement despite many fine words and , despite ants will öffnens and schließens numerous chapters of the council does not in keeping with the necessary political will vigour . many countries of the union had to a certain time of its development with similar problems to contend with bulgaria advised to help to the current problems to overcome . re-assured democracy is not just a question of majorities , but also and above all a matter of adequate co-decision rights of minorities . the applicant countries must be treated and their accession just be by their development depends . at the same time we should recognise , with as much effort to try to recover lost ground soothe countries such as lithuania . so it is in our interest to our legal and freiheitssystem until after romania extended , and this is certainly at a critical debate with our publicity is an argument . in relation to a matter prevails over there , however great unity , and that is the enlargement process . my group therefore supports the duration of the transition periods in environmental matters to a maximum period of five years . mr president , we really must be a positive move in the enlargement riverbank . of course , is still on the order of the accession of candidate countries to discuss , partly because there are still of the progress of the internal reforms must be judged . i am pleased that the report as affirmative and that slovenia itself - and i , as chairman of the delegation to check and the commissioner has several times here - really has to fulfil the criteria . massively struggling with persistently i believe that the proposal for diskussionswürdig . these forms of violence and trafficking in women are already using every means at both the eu as well as in the candidate countries to condemn and combated . finally , i would like to add my voice to take this opportunity to reflect the concerns of many colleagues who , it is necessary to keep to the question of the borders of europe and the size of its enlargement and the expediency of preparing a report drawn up by the european parliament to consider . once depth and - the minutes from yesterday 's sitting have been distributed . - thank you . in this house will rightly pointed out again and again that in a europe of citizens ' rights in the union must be enshrined in the right . i shall now put to the request for postponement of the committee on legal affairs and the vote . we know that it deals with regard to the undesirable substances in order to make it very rarely toxic substances , but rather of long term , and bioaccumulative substances such as dioxins , aflatoxin and heavy metals such as cadmium , lead and mercury . here , acute is wirkende langlebige we can no longer able to identify the sinners today to make . if these verschneidung permits , it must at least a filed with the supervisory 800s , and it must be made public , that these verschneidung there , because this problem must also be discussed in the public will be aware of . one thing must be clarified : the dioxin crisis was the result of criminal acts against the existing regulations . mr president , i should like to thank those colleagues who spoke before me have . this was a compelling necessity . the limit value for fishmeal differs from , for example , frost , for not from meerestieren engineered animal products being proposed . it is high time that we misleading this interpretation of the subsidiarity principle , with the imposition of our nations by brussels daily developed , put an end . i would like to congratulate the rapporteur 's view that the measures proposed are justified and which must be controlled , even if this does not toxic are , in combination with other substances but heightened values displaying substances listed in itself . unfortunately , is a great deal of knowledge , to healthy bauernverstand in industrial agriculture , where the animals on production units and commodities have been reduced to have been lost . überliefertem the new regulations will be the very detailed and complicated hygieneanforderungen , the number of directives which have been distributed matched to harmonize and simplified . the number of those who ingredients exactly question is , according to my research relatively low . secondly , a change emerges very well for the farmers , who are the producers of feed materials are . they will in future considerably more partien by ausgangsprodukten to destroy . but the compensation is needed , although it is undeniable that the farmers themselves also a major responsibility for animal welfare technical-scientific . in amendment no 18 explicitly urges that water in the definition of feedingstuffs devices . on the basis of scientific risk assessments , the commission will be the member states suitable measures to limit values for these substances in animal feed recommend . according to the examination of the amendments which , in today 's sitting have been tabled , i welcome parliament 's support for the proposal . overall , the commission can 15 of the 27 amendments . i assume that there is no time will be successful . the commission has promised that they are working on this , and it has also announced that it will not be until tomorrow will be completed . farmers must be very easy to understand better at least in question , but also in prozentangaben , everything and the extent in these compound feedingstuffs contain should be . occasion in conclusion , i would like to thank the rapporteur , mr graefe zu baringdorf , and also mrs roth-behrendt sincerely for their reports and hope that the council on this issue , a constructive attitude and so on a transparent system of futtermitteldeklaration unseen . we jointly all this means that we have clearly attributable to the tragedy which has become a genuine novel with several chapters has developed . pollutants which relate to the health of humans and animals influence , which are not acceptable . however , we shall begin with a positive way . the proposal before us is the beginning of a series of initiatives which relate to the white paper on food safety network-driven . thank you very much , commissioner . ( parliament adopted the resolution ) report ( a5-0248 / 2000 ) by mr queiró , on behalf of the committee on foreign affairs , human rights , common security and defence policy on the request to hungary 's accession to the european union and the state of negotiations [ com ( 1999 ) 505 - c5-0028 / 2000 - in 1997 / 2175 ( cos ) ] report ( a5-0247 / 2000 ) by baroness nicholson of winterbourne , on behalf of the committee on foreign affairs , human rights , common security and defence policy on romania 's application for membership of the european union and the state of negotiations [ com ( 1999 ) 510 - c5-0033 / 2000 - in 1997 / 2171 ( cos ) ] the third and perhaps most precondition is that the council on a new agreement , which is efficient , effective and democratic functioning of the community after enlargement . ensure institutional agreements for this greater europe must sewn such institutions which are , admittedly , the development of the east promoted , but also room for national sovereignty and differences unmentioned . these excellent principle should also apply within the european union . pipeline finally , i must stress that the enlargement process stages and in line with the applicant countries anpassungsfortschritten successes . in the current context and in view of the vote in favour of the accelerated listen to the enlargement of the european union into question , it is important that parliament has a strong political signal for enlargement . pins and are the european union serves since its establishment of the reunification of peoples . the criteria of the council in copenhagen in 1993 the democratization of competitiveness strengths , under the guise of ' acquis communautaire ' , the domination of one unbridled capitalism . destructive and or under these circumstances would be a headlong pursuit at the enlargement process to a rise in the populist and faschistoiden aberrations which mancherorts remarking that are having . we have just on the agenda for this sitting on a report on equal opportunities for men and women , which is once again illustrating how bad things with the acquis communautaire in practice , precisely in this area sourced is . anyone who wanted to poland 's kopernikus and access to the european parliament refuse to budapest in 1956 or the symbolic prague , in which the head of a fenstersturz absetzten and the people of jan palach , based on the freedom opferte , with violence niederhielten . afflicted hungarians capital democracies once johannes-paul ii a greater europe with more duties and responsibilities needs new and more financial resources . on that occasion , would like to older people and pensioners in estonia and hope that it can to ensure viel , you have a existence in the european union to state-level . in my welcoming if we continue to make progress and the european union 's institutional structures and adapted to cope with enlargement to be able to see no reason why latvia in the union should not be included in their policies has latvia . if we continue to make progress and the european union 's institutional structures and adapted to cope with enlargement to be able to see no reason why lithuania into the union should not be included in their policies has lithuania . even the environmental sector are in agreement with the creation of ' national fund for environmental protection ' and the polluter pays principle progress has been observed . if the union poland , the door to our common house receptive to throws them towards this neuankömmling fairness prevail - a equity which that country for a long time been deprived . i look forward to the imminent accession of the czech republic to the european union . . ( en ) i welcome the report by mr queiró , on hungary to join the european union and the bulk of its conclusions could support . i hope that bulgaria in the not too distant future will join . poos report ( a5-0249 / 2000 ) it is a balanced and fair position which the council seriously to note . in this connection , i hope that the negotiations under the auspices of the united nations to success , so that the greek and turkish ethnic groups in cyprus jointly by the benefits of membership in the context of a reunified republic can benefit . i welcome the report by mr poos on the request of the republic of cyprus to join the european union . however , we find ourselves at the end of the food chain and are thus the last sammelbecken for genetically modified foods . verfälschte and consumers marginalized we are in particular to ensure that food at european level and in concrete terms by their stalls or from the fields table will be guaranteed . it is precisely because we do not for the development and cooperation between all of these countries on earth are we support the intention , with our vote to be a farce . brüderlicher truly equal the council informed parliament before the vote in committee , however , is so short that it deliberately further talks with me or the european parliament have been prevented . in my report i did not only for greater involvement of ngos to provide greater accountability to parliament that an annual debate on this in parliament as well as the greatest possible transparency , but i am also in favour of the mehrfache discrimination and recognising the memory of the past alive to keep to it in the combating of use . prejudices and a representation and similarly , we must legitimate interests of employees . the social partners are primarily responsible for the rule of diskriminierungsfragen workplace best able to workable solutions to produce . sarc it is coordinator of the access-charter-gruppe and was from me on to the public hearings on article 13 invited . jenny in practice , because guidelines and action plans to offer incentives to ensure that the member states in the fight against discrimination in the same basis , and they will enable the commission to have their role as guardian of the treaties , but also in the discussion forge ahead . societal exercise emanate although the present legal basis for new preparative initiatives releases , their funding within this category of mittelreduzierung for other policies lead . appropriations could this is a proposal for a necessary but insufficient framework directive . we shall have an opportunity to carry out their mechanisms after a certain anwendungszeit to be finalised . i hope that the commission will , in the light of this new directive closely with the issue of discrimination on grounds of sex deal . i would like to congratulate the commission and my colleagues who have worked on these reports . i welcome the recommendation of the mann report , weltanschaulichen organisations are given the opportunity to give the necessary as a vocational plea to the staff propitiate conditions are , at this recital referring . the fact that the institutions of the treaty of amsterdam afforded new powers to make use of proves that the european union in the field of equal opportunities is still a pioneering role , and for that , madam commissioner , i would like to thank the european commission is quite explicitly so quickly . the presence of discrimination audacity nature in our societies confirms the importance of the present action programme , which the report by mr cashman is concerned . mr president , on behalf of the bonino list , i would like to express our distress at the way in which the matters of discrimination , racism and xenophobia by means of this union and the member states to make . can the commissioner to explain why the commission this aspect into account in instils ? the second is the problem that ngos , important as they are also being called upon to regardless of its size , its nature and its actions to the implementation of working here , for me . the group of the european liberal , democrat and reform party has all this is positive , but in particular , the activities of the european parliament , which is also and above all , insisted on the prevention of discrimination and the best practices submitted . this is a challenge for us all , because we are all the people after the first impression judge . mr president , if we can combat discrimination and against it , then we their existence and even the fact that many of your expressions meanwhile ' legal ' that they have to alltagsbild belong . provisions enacted confess a firstly , the unctad , the welthandels- and the united nations , the principle of positive measures , therefore , the discrimination drawn up . entwicklungskonferenz 1963 in geneva the information and awareness acquire a truly fundamental importance in this area , they must be to ensure that a new mentality , new attitudes and approaches , so that people are still in the population wide-spread prejudices once and for all sorts of all citizens genuine equality will be guaranteed . through appropriate groundwork can be einprägen so it is now a question of the two legislative initiatives forwards , but also by making them in some respects improvement and for the financing of the programme , the political importance of this fight against discrimination expresses . second-phase resources are what we are debating in particular of the agreement on the principle beast adjustments , which sweden and ireland a pioneering role , which will ensure that the employer in europe , and its procedures as alter that disabled people to have a real chance . adjust their jobs sonderausstattungen can now vector the article 13 which forms the basis for a new objective of the eu : the fight against discrimination or the unequal treatment of citizens , for reasons of this article listed . secondly , i would like to point out that the commission with this first package unfortunately a serious mistake made by the grounds for discrimination in a prioritizing rationalising . it has to be proceeds mr president , discriminates against religious reasons is neither to tolerate such as any other form of discrimination . as a staunch supporter of the secularism i cannot therefore endorse this idea . the noble idea that every citizen of the greatest possible freedom attempting , provided they are the same degree of freedom of the other compatible , still today on obstacles to slice of several factual , partly non-legislative nature . castigates one of these directives have already been adopted , and i am very hopeful that the other november during the french presidency will be approved in a very short time . some people are not consistent with other legislation , for example , the amendment concerning the procedure in the committees . i must reject amendment no 38 and the proposed deletion of the list of article 5 , in the allowable cases of inequality on the grounds of age listed . you have the important question of the degree repetition . in this action plan are the first time joint projects mapped out . it is obvious that it will be the code of conduct so that more effective , more countries join a worldwide basis . in article 7 of the code oblige the member states to prevent arms to ungeeignete end-users be passed on . mr president , i admit that i am following the times in which the european parliament , but also by the various friedensbewegungen and calls for reflection and measures to continuously reducing waffenproduktion and at the threw doubt as to the arms of civilian production rearrangement might be . unions were imposed zurücksehne in view of the situation in which the world and our continent today , after the end of the cold war and the collapse of weapons of mass destruction aufrechterhaltenen balance of horror finds that would be a behave irresponsibly . faltered these weapons are virtually at the symbol of the anarchy in many places in the world . the cfsp embraces crisis-management measures outside the union 's borders , but nothing that a common defence policy could be described . these are aimed at the export of arms to governments , which violate human rights , and in situations or in regions where a rüstungswettlauf takes place to prevent . the commission has , in close cooperation with the member states actively involved in drawing up of joint action of the european union for small arms and light weapons participated . the next item is the joint debate on the commission 's communication on the european research area . other elements for longer periods involved , which halfway through the inclusion of funding are located in the use of the treaty second-phase instruments ' multi-speed europe " , in particular , the union 's participation in national programmes , such as article 169 of the treaty . lasts , the introduction of förderformen between and institutional ; this hierarchisierenden nature of what we want to promote , and it depends on the förderform onwards . you say dächten involved a total shake-up of the framework programme . i believe we need something which the european research area , that is something that goes beyond the framework programme , with the national programmes merely to be supplemented . we need a strukturierendes element , we must therefore methods . introduce a structure lends today with regard to the discussions with the stoa-referat is concerned , we must do something together , since parliament , the joint research centre and the zukunftsforschungsinstitute in individual member states are affected . in my opinion , obviously advancing the commission taking giant steps towards the achievement of the european research area too . there is a whole chapter on science and society and its citizens . contact with the authorities in greece , ireland and portugal , for the governments of these countries to ask the commission their projects under the cohesion fund soon submit . there were perhaps it is the lack of a service which you have just mentioned it in the last commission , which deals solely with the cohesion fund devoted to blame , that you have any specific information and the existed . my second question is as follows : apart from the cohesion fund , there is the community support frameworks , the structural funds and programmes for the countries have been tabled and which whichever country they have already approved ? etc . you definite plan programmes 1989 the commission has submitted a new proposal , the greater flexibility should offer . i know is the statements made by mr bolkestein to appreciate and i am aware that one of the principles of the treaties is that foreign companies are not allowed , but should also apply here . disproportionately high taxation , we should remember that the competition law in this situation may have , though , that these matters within the sole competence of member states . pay more than the general rules for fair competition in europe in cases where the effect universally applicable in the domestic if you want to save fuel , then levies and not through other besteuerungsformen revert through . mr purvis , i would reply that the problem of the natural disadvantages likely cause of the national governments , but one part of your electorate in those outlying regions and peripheral regions in the national , regional thrives . mr president , thank you , commissioner , for your answer . last spring , and summer , the european commission has carried out a comprehensive review of its activities and its human resources . there are such tasks . they are increasingly by tourists and businessmen who remarkably often come from europe . the commission takes the view that all companies will be able to promptly to the final changeover to euro prepare , including the adapting their computer systems and the software belongs . the theoretical political discussion is no longer on the agenda , we can of course , the dangers of a referendum in general evaded , perhaps , however , on another occasion . this also applies to elche . recently , the french authorities a erinnerungsschreiben sent . with regard to the candidate countries , i can tell you that on this issue meeting with you have taken place and tentative agreements were concluded . while the commission 's criticisms of various conventional plant varieties , including the traces of gm seeds . befallen frühjahrsaussaat concluded cases of imported seed note , cotton since i am , however , with his department , i am able to inform you that the basic safety requirements in relation to computer equipment for private use in a directive on electrical products , the so-called niedrigspannungsrichtlinie as well as in the directive on funkanlagen and equipment are laid down . kurzgeschlossen or official would he agree that we are distinguishes between security and safety in the classroom , or the safety of a child , which is home at a computer ? i think that the falsely workplace perhaps he shaking his hands by the president khatami . aung san suu kyi lives now de facto under house arrest . that is why i am very hesitant , trade more closely involved or other measures in terms of trade or investment programmes . question no 15 by ( h-0769 / 00 ) : it animal-specific them , for example , on wahlkampfveranstaltungen which you had visited . questions nos 16 to 44 will receive written answers . we are calling for a consolidated european report , which this parliament examined and should be publicized . instead , to point out how we can deal with the other weapons oil-producing countries of the world , we should instead of the transition to civilian production focus . compete the five permanent members of the security council , whose task is actually consists of about our security to ensure that we should heed these proposals and as quickly as possible to reach an agreement negotiate , worthy of the twenty-first century is . today 's debate marks an important step in the reform process , the commission under mr prodi nearly a year ago was taken . i pushed to the idea that the commission in the race for producing a proposal within the reformweißbuch set timeframe it has failed to every individual points . exactly arbitration on so i suggest that both the financial controller , the internal auditor detailed reports on their activities should produce . in the report by mr van hulten part-financed by the commission advocated a workable approach for the exchange of best practices between the institutions imperative . separation rightly aggravated and this should be here hopefully does not happen again ! if we provisions for large institutions , the committee of wise men demanded independence along the line apply . souaidia we have seen in the past has very often , as long as the proposers of disappointment and at a loss of confidence in the european institutions have led to decision-making processes . i would like to tell the commissioner that this report , which means that the first step towards building a bridge between the current system , and that we are following the reform achieve , policyholders . it is only an intermediate step . that is the proposal before us . only if they are capable of being too that sampling , selection , often to control the wound . on mere declarations are all aware , that is certainly no easy task is . beyond i am referring , of course , that we neither politicians nor as an technicians are actually capable of tackling the problem alone . fortunately , however , the vast majority of children and young people in an environment in which none of these problemmerkmale defects . grows quite i agree with the commission wholeheartedly agrees that such a catalogue of similarity with a constitution has to be drawn up bathroom . it is for me self-evident that the principle of subsidiarity must be strengthened and that the eu 's many policy areas fallout has whose aufgabenstellungen not transcend borders . information from all over the world and all wissensgebieten going into the house , and that communicate around the planet is in favour of it everyday life . inspect shortest period of time supplied they were arrested and saying : ' it is indeed strange , in the surveys will not be so quickly . tackled quickly towards the malaitan the legislators - and would like to remind you that i will conclude - cannot regulate everything , but it must sometimes at the rights and duties of everyone . in addition , i understand the one-minute speeches on education , training , the ability of the pictures and awareness of the younger generation , the media critically to look at it and not something which sometime , somehow angle . verstehens nothing will be based on their remaining in the formation of cease harmful effects , as if a report like this to be any progress , or at any rate not managing to eliminate the obstacles which are the ausbildungsmobilität today is concerned . greater mobility otherness or it insights in the various countries are conflicting ideas to resolve problems : it is revolve around different rules in areas such as social security , grants , residence and tax or about the lack of a common recognition of diplomas and praktikumsaufenthalten . it is time that europe 's proper implementation of programmes such as socrates and youth for europe ' , attention . the experience of the mobility of students and teachers , show that the real deficiencies here not primarily in education , but when it comes to social security , taxation and immigration lie . as an example of this socrates programme has been included . it needs a clear monitoring , control , though spot , and above all , we must beratungsstelle , a web-seite set up , where the school pupils and students their complaints can make a clear . we therefore call for the inclusion of category of researchers in the scope of the recommendations . but it is easier said than done . the debate is closed . we appreciate your approach , which is the model of president jacques chirac or by foreign minister joschka fischer outlook . the union must , in the field of foreign policy with one voice and a common defence and sicherheitsfähigkeit develop . what we need is a entscheidungsforum solving the problems which are of crucial importance , such as the migration of the shift of production factors , or the over-dependent on both sides . in the resolution on the commission 's reports on which you will shortly be voting on this issue very carefully considered . the commission prepared indicators will be an assessment of progress state-level . in addition , the ministerial conference and the symposium on equal treatment in the profession of equality gewidmete , however , in the field of the council ' employment and social affairs ' empowered texts are mentioned two important specially should . the second concerns the principle of non-discrimination , including the ban on discrimination on grounds of sex . i would like to point out - the president-in-office has also mentioned - the significant cultural differences , of course , the big issues within the eu . belong to the reports also , the reports we are dealing with here , reflect the cons . we must check that the directive on equality actually incorporated into the legislation will . i believe that this time in finland evade procedures for very many areas practicable and is one of this as part of the gleichberechtigungsstrategie by the commission still expect much commisison . on behalf of the equal opportunities , the french women thanks to the european union the right to night-time driving garnered . as a french resided is such a perspective of the world , in particular attention alien to me . in spite of these comments will be voting in favour of this report , because we are naturally in favour of equal opportunities , but equal opportunities means above all , everyone will be respected . anyone who mothers of choice takes on their own children without remuneration educate them , receives on account of in the form of juvenile and vandalism presented sooner or later . i recall in this context , our report on the divorce , at last the benefits for the survivors and the retirement age in the directive by 1979 involved . splitting rentenrechte when the polish women were very grateful that we have made it clear that the representatives of the host-state which was not exactly the attitude of the polish women has reproduced . greater involvement of women at all levels and in all walks is an essential prerequisite for the deepening of democracy and for achieving and maintaining peace . finally , i would like to comment on the situation of women in the countries themselves to their accession to the european union prepare . the council , and not least the men in which he did so in this area is an enormous task of europe in the fight against frauenhandelsmafia lead to a accountability politicians can these slave trade , schulterzuckend ignore or ignore . edged out . the reports and speeches which we have before us today , we listening to what many have already been clear , namely that the problem of equal opportunities and global strategies for his solution needs to be , because we are neither a category a homogeneous social group and nor do we have a collectively . women are still able to analyse from structural in nature , i have noted with some regret the fact that maria de belém roseira these items is no longer bekleidet . indeed two of the speakers have new sozialrechte , new steuerrechte raised . thirdly , they are the basis of a strategy for the european union - even in the charter has been of great importance that we have an overview of the current situation , but also at national level , since the member states are now in a comparative assessment national targets set out . available - the joint debate is closed . these amendments must be included in the context of the interinstitutional agreement , should be understood , and that is why parliament cannot disregard that these amendments on comitology to exist , because it by the new interinstitutional framework to some extent immaterial . conference-weariness , on i nonetheless believe that the time was adopted by the new realities of the internal market and the liberalisation of markets significantly better account bore , since it does not contain elements of the monitoring and information on the accepted amendments to a greater guarantee offered to the fact that the rules are respected and in its implementation of the same procedure applicable to break-up . personally remain text goods if we want to ensure that third countries to accept that the european community as a first for compliance with its own regulations to ensure that , because if a country has the possibility of products on the community , why should it will then have to make an effort to trifled with any permissions negotiate ? schmuggelwege onto the market to bring obligations must be careful , at the same way , parliament 's amendment concerning the papierlose filed by the council has taken over by member states ' customs authorities to make it possible to address the most modern automated verwaltungsinstrumenten vest . - but now it is too late , because you have just put noble and honourable members are in favour of them . votes ( continuation ) report ( a5-0198 / 2000 ) by mrs dybkjær , on behalf of the committee on women 's rights and equal opportunities on the annual reports of the commission ' equal opportunities for men and women in the european union - in 1997 and 1998 , 1999 " [ com ( 1998 ) 302 - c5 ­ 0106 / 1999 ) [ com ( 1999 ) 106 - c5-0289 / 2000 ) ( com ( 2000 ) 123 - c5- 0290 / 2000 -1999 2109 ( cos ) ) . ( fr ) i shall give an opinion on the mobility of students and teachers . onwards today is not the first time this report is even greater importance to it , at a crucial moment for the european union , namely the enlargement imminent , will be submitted . discrimination cannot through the creation of additional management units combated , but solely and exclusively in the minds of people . - ( fr ) i have not voted in favour of the mann report because , in fact necessary quest for equal treatment in employment and profession does not yet in übereifer went so far as to ensure that the protection of freedom and respect for the rule of law tack completely into oblivion . hence as a representative of the secularism , the separation of church and state that i was unable to endorse this does not exist . staunch . ( en ) the snp welcomes this directive and its objective , the discrimination in the workplace putting an end . if the directive to be possible , it must not with literature and wishful thinking overloaded , who are in a legislative text have no place . acceptable and strong reservations about the eplp has , however , on the following areas : both issues such as the implementation of the training of workers , the type of schlichtungssystems and the interpretation of this directive by the smes should be in our opinion , the member states . trafficked for certain ages mr van hulten in the interview from that we can begin until then , with a positive agenda , if we problems such as fraud and waste , but also a lack of efficiency and effectiveness in the decision-making process . overcame rightly otherness the reasons for my vote in favour of this report are mainly with the question of the european union to nato and the rapid establishment of a common defence policy interrelated . closer relations the report also mentions the european waffenausfuhr as a solution for future regional conflicts in the border regions of europe discussed . however , i cannot accept that this is the call for a common defence policy and a european security and defence policy within nato connected with it . . ( el ) the children are the first victims of violence on television . i welcome the fact that the results of this study is now available . in addition , a expertenausschuss with the task of drawing up a memorandum , the general principles for the protection of minors in the media utopianism . at community level we will use dybkjær report ( a5-0198 / 2000 ) . ( el ) interestingly have been here for the first time , the effectiveness of the annual report of the commission resulting political initiatives to be assessed . recognised the need for peru mr president , peru are currently experiencing moments of uncertainty , and we all hoped that the current situation in which all civil and political rights be guaranteed , and the strengthening of consolidating democracy and peace in serves as a country in the last fifteen years 25 000 people lost their push-chair . labouring under a process will be resolved and peru the word , so that we are talking about , is ' democracy ' . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , the conditions under which the council in may this year 's elections in peru expired , were unacceptable . b5-0793 / 2000 by mrs ainardi and others , on behalf of the group of the confederal group of the european united left / nordic green left , on the situation of women in afghanistan . so i welcome the fact that the decision by a few points about the situation of women and pointing out how important support are , in order to further utter discrimination against women by the taliban-führung to prevent . forthright contains power the eu has an important role here . an acknowledgement that none of the member states , it must not be so long as the policy of human rights violations and , above all , the systematic discrimination against women will be resumed . this , and the fact that the money from the purchase of weapons being used , we in the european institutions in mind . crops however , will support you in the neighbouring countries in the improvement of their ability to combat drugs resolutely . i believe the time for suited to remind you that the european union policy towards latin america spelling out the possibly could prevent that these countries at regular intervals experiencing crises , as you have arisen . detainees must be a pipeline ladies and gentlemen , the commission as the house welcome the release of the spanish jesuitenpaters alejandro matos castro during the last week . b5-0782 / 2000 by mr haarder , on behalf of the group of the european liberal , democrat and reform party , on macedonia law on colleges and universities ; : that is why we are all very pleased that the problem of higher education at long last may be a really good solution memories are concerned . in my opinion , this is a good example for all neighbouring countries that do not only be able , as so often happens , but that education as well as cradle for a peaceful , multi-ethnic society cannot serve mainly on education hatred planted today . i would wish , we have found a solution to all the parties in parliament have been able to agree with . here i should perhaps an opportunity to point out that the commission in cooperation with the high commissioner , mr van der stoel , already good experience of it . we can talk about not only express our condolences to the first and foremost , we are about what has happened , which is why there has been done , as we can remedy as of now , the commission and the european parliament to be able to contribute to such an incident does not yet again . occurred in the future and with today 's debate . in any case we have presented us with this joint resolution and support him in its present form , as an urgency , and for the reasons i explained earlier , we are against the amendments which are also under urgent procedure has been agreed . on the amendment on this issue is already the subject of a directive , and the amendment is not so assessing questions such as the text itself . trimmed the conditions of employment : this is simply not acceptable , nor for the possible crossing on the north sea and the european mainland , the hopefully not too distant future is set up for the northern and western islands of scotland in . i welcome the fact that the greek government is liberation meanwhile overland transport has . that is why the commission is following the sinking of the samina express immediately to the greek government contacted with a request for information on the application of existing community legislation to be given . i would like to raise the issue and i would ask you to do with the bureau to clarify whether , following the abolition of fridays from certain quarters permeating the abolition of the thursdays has begun . i would like to inform you that , from the european union which are so that we will of the serbian people , in other words , as soon as one of the electorate kostunicas government is formed , the following measures : firstly , an immediate lifting of sanctions and , secondly , a wirtschaftshilfepaket in support of the serbian people in the reconstruction of its economy . mechanisms to be initiated as soon as respected life-support can continue at this moment in the streets of belgrade will perhaps decide whether the democratic change now espouse and whether it gewaltlos might arise . we condemn all actions which , as provocation to values are , in particular , with regard to the holy places in jerusalem is concerned . we must give the people - as mr solana has said - with the meeting in zagreb quite symbolic of the helping hand . most importantly , the israeli police and army have stood up to the incursions into the body in dozens of fifty-fifty , shells which internationally , even when fights between soldiers who are banned and now against civilians are used . schockierendsten splittergeschosse zerbersten i believe that europe can and must be a great deal in this direction and it must continue , clear and decisive action . it must therefore make every effort to ensure that the smouldering fire as quickly as possible bounds . provocations , such as the action of ariel sharon , must discouraged . this has happened again today , and that is why the european union , as in recent years , in the middle east abandons them , so that the united states alone . leaves the role of mediator can all we will be the serbian population does not lofty ambitions sacrifice , because that would mean that we should perhaps thousands of people in serbia and yugoslavia could therefore brazilians . moral and acheloos finally , i would like to propose a new government is formed , with a parliamentary delegation to travel , together with this new yugoslavian government plans for the construction of a new serbia to make as quickly as possible and as soon as yugoslav kindergarten . madam president , ladies and gentlemen , it is clear that we in parliament today may be an historic day , perhaps the end of the last lines of a totalitarian dictatorships in europe . mr president , there is a problem , and in the german file to the urgencies are only - i do not know whether this in the other language versions too happens - only the amendments tabled by the gue group abstained , however , none of the resolutions and certainly not the joint text . mr president , i just wanted to draw attention to the shows that what we have this week to vote in favour of the members pile documentation needed . if parliament on the council 's decision , it would also sure to unemployment and social problems croatian reminiscent of the country mandated schlankheitskur stem , but in this connection , there is no legal basis for such amendments could table amendments . this is an opportunity for the same goals in relation to the eib 's activities to demand . mr president , yesterday evening we are talking here about serbia , and there is watch revolutionary changes . i would therefore appeal to the ladies and gentlemen , first and foremost , but also to the council , which , in the coming months in the negotiations on the budget for next year , and for the closest possible on the commission 's proposal is to remain , in my opinion , the total costs in croatia , but also in other parts of the balkans , still the best assess it . years later emphatically in 1990 , where democratic elections were held according to the international epithet fair and free goods . so yes , yes , but also a strong call for the commission , and now truly democratic and constitutional massively supporting it in the number of applicant countries to hold croatia has our full backing to this macro-financial assistance to guarantee this profoundly european represses country and , because i believe that deserved . like the rapporteur , i wonder , however , whether the money for this really will be made available , above all , because it appears that , soon to serbia and the union 's budget cannot be increased . reshuffled large flows flow must the delegations of the croat and parliament have asked the council , the mandate of the eib dissolve . i hope we will soon be as well as croatia and the serbian people , that is our greatest respect worthy of support . contacts and ( parliament approved the minutes . in this respect , we are calling for women in the european parliament delegation to participate in tuesday and wednesday we will launch an appeal , we will signatures collates and the reports on the contrary , precisely with concern among women bridges peace to propose , in a place where instead violence prevails . participation in the delegation briefcases , therefore , to attend this : as a whole was both basques as well spaniards suffering inflicted spaniards and basques have enough from the current conflict . facelift ; madam president , you will remember that at the last part-session at the plight of the british pro-democracy campaigner for democracy james mawdsley have drawn attention to the resolution tabled by the burmese authorities illegal has been laid down . madam president , i really is about the rules of procedure . this report , which is of great political changes leading to think that is the reality is very important because it indirectly introduces the possibility of genetic engineering in weinanbau apply and therefore genetically modified products in the weinanbau to obtain . technically anmutende , on if we do not vote in favour of the report , which will have to be delayed . the conseil d ' etat has - as you said - and this has been properly informed us in this vocation rejected rejection . today , however , such a case of a subject which , although the ppe group , but my political camp in italy interviewed . occasions colleagues why are we so hard for the introduction of a social scoreboards one , as has happened , with clear measures , with diaries , with zeitlimits . for the internal market i hope , madam minister , can the council from the expectations of the european parliament inspiration , and i hope that will enable them to the summit in nice ambitious objectives in a european social policy agenda formalise in which we then in the coming years working together can . at the end of the informal council meeting on 8 july in paris was of course , the european parliament , the economic and social committee , the committee on the regions , the social partners , ngos and the working groups and committees of the council - invited to give its proposals to pass . chairmanship all players involved - ' employment and social affairs . " the debate on the dichotomy of quantitative and qualitative aspects is inappropriate and , in lisbon was clearly a double ambition defined : more jobs and höherqualifizierte jobs . this mobility must be promoted and also the protection of career be guaranteed . we must try , even in the system gaps to specify and also to identify and , in any case , on the agenda . the open coordination method is in our opinion , the right way to secure a social europe . the implementation of the lisbon objectives requires community efforts , an action plan for the creation of jobs in the service sector and , above all in the field of information society . propagierten societal the commission cannot , of course an important contribution , but the social problems are regionally and must be treated with a great deal for the specific conditions . delicacy enshrines the social dimension served as compensation for the folgenschwersten effects of economic policy . it would be preferable to the original commission proposal as to how it was . congratulations , mr commissioner . it is an ambitious agenda , and i can still remember , as we in the last parliamentary term in discard arrived . progressing well painstakingly i think it would be very well , women are to help her family and working hand in hand . i sometimes have the impression that the concept of modernising the frequent erosion of social protection is meant . what are the main content characteristics ? yet it is difficult to implement the objectives set out all the member states are equally valid , since the reality is proving to be quite different . eu-israeli there have been 49 amendments tabled by the committee on women 's rights and equal opportunities presented . in an amendment proposes to annually here in parliament have a debate on the subject , together with the commission to undertake . another point is stepping up the community support for assessment of needs to additional initiatives , including , if necessary , the implementation of legislation and equal opportunities and the fight against sexual discrimination . it has in the past are certainly not in good ideas and plans for equality between men and women , but unfortunately it is implemented often failed . gemangelt it is not acceptable that the voice of women by a handful of forderungsprofis in seal off will be taken to deal with public money alive sticking to it . it concerns the issue of equality between men and women in the civil field , to enable women to enter the full benefit of the human rights and fundamental freedoms to come . i expect that , finally , the male actors as our starting point and überkommene gender and stereotypical combated . we must , however , thanks to her that she has followed our debate , for your presence throughout the debate was actually not provided for . competition policy we have our own companies , the most advantageous conditions smuggle them to their production and not least its future planning re-assured . consumers must have access to a wide range of quality products to be attractive prices , and this is ultimately the reason why we have so much the internal market and so on free competition , namely because our citizens to benefit lies . that is the beihilfenentscheidung or nichtbeihilfenentscheidung in the field of coal . point 16 of the report by mrs riis-jørgensen calls for greater legal certainty in the application of the control of mergers and more efficient and more rapid chronological treatment in the case of referrals by the courts . in all cases , we are talking about public companies to its economic strength , not a complete management , but sooner or current monopoly thanks . we need greater involvement of citizens in the information on competition policy , so that he recognizes the advantages . they are in favour of the economy and employment in the regions is extremely important , and i hope will become clear that this aspect in future , so that these national subsidies for regional development and the regional economy , for example , the aid granted to weitergezahlt can be made . this communication contains three right messages . equally , i warmly thank mr evans for his excellent report relating to community rules on state aid to the steel industry , and on the respect of the commission 's report on state aid in the european union . the honourable member , mrs palacio and mr karas , as well as other meps who have spoken , i would like to say that your concerns in the regulation broadly taken into account on these issues . otherwise we would be in our efforts to promote competition and the consumer a disservice . the debate is closed . with this financing is article 119 of the third phase of economic and monetary union is still not only for the single currency acceding member states . treaty which whereas mr president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , i am thankful that today we are still on the proposal for a council directive amending directive 193 / 68 / eec on the transport sector with regard to discuss , and i hope that tomorrow , at a favourable vote . vegetativem reproductive material from some of you have the appeal made by beaune its concern with regard to the introduction of gmos in their smis expressed . 5 july the rules facilitated by the creation of vielseitigem vegetativen reproductive material , since they provide for the promotion of the restructuring of the key element of the new com in wine which is urgently needed . best gesundheitsgarantien what effective weinbaus within the community , therein furthermore it must be loud and clear that it was necessary , the rule of this directive amending directive 90 / 220 on plugging holes , unless you wanted to manipulation of weinreben with all the power push . in any way with references to the observes fully 35 to 40 , which seek to security and managementerfordernisse under directive 90 / 220 rigorously to transfer . can accept amendments nos . i would like to point out that the house was not called , as such comment . madam president , i refer to paragraph 14 of our protocol to the request for waiver of parliamentary immunity of our colleagues pacheco pereira . on the qualified majority should also like to comment on . there are also the two options are still on the table : the simple weighting for which there is a majority of the double majority , but on the basis of various formulae such as double simple or neugewichtete majority or but some sort of ' demographic network ' . hauchdünne reappear or in the weighting well-known furthermore , the european council unscathed from a bedarfsbewertung and coordination of economic and financial aid for the federal republic of yugoslavia , the european commission and the world bank are transferred to the federal republic of yugoslavia , a first humanitarian emergency aid amounting to eur 200 million to be granted . jointly decided , i would say to my mind , then i would like sensitive issues - the composition of the commission and the voting procedure - may be , the success or failure of nice will not be measured . spontaneously and openly say this : if it was also a fact that the heads of state and government of the charter of fundamental rights , but i must also remember , mr president-in-office , ladies and gentlemen , why was this agreement possible ? gave its assent we must not be the spirit of the nice summit , and it is therefore in the remaining 50 days of primary importance to the negotiations on the political level to raise . verdruss not by abwürgen in this respect , i would like to turn to my colleagues in the european people 's party - and i would like to ask mr poettering that he is listening to me , because what we in parliament europhiles and we must also outside contended . - after all , it will be on the results of the heads of state and government in relation to the most complex issues of the treaty reform are all aware of the charter probably the most trophäe in nice . what we biarritz , the council would really be the expectations of european citizens correspond to a wide-ranging consultation of the peoples of the national parliaments , in order to reach a charter which meet the needs subdivision . if he durchführte why are all called upon to deal with the european union to have the courage to mr giscard d ' estaing and mr schmidt , as you 1976 and on the election of the european parliament in direct universal suffrage , and we are having to decide that we 2009 at long last presidents of the european union , namely the commission to have . returning home territory in our chosen had 1979 in this connection , i would like to reply specifically to what mr poettering , on the gulfs between large and small countries has said . i would like to refer very briefly on the issues of foreign trade policy , because this is a very serious matter . this is in any case , all the members of the european council has been under-emphasised . something valuable a second very positive aspect is the adoption of the charter in its entirety . apart from that seems to me that on this fundamental issue for the future of the european union and for their decision-making processes in biarritz advantages will be able recorded . i hope that we will succeed in this respect , nor to convince progress , and we captured in nice . i would like to make two specific examples : the right to work on the right to work conference-weariness , and a number of the council of europe 's rights are not included in the charter has been adopted . recreated social chapter is as from the discussions which shows that the whole of europe , including biarritz , have been led to the larger member states of the smaller partly to a reform of the european union press , in the larger member states route direction and your wishes . penny-pinching the unzufriedenen on both sides are proof of the negotiator , and that they are at a reasonable compromise hinbewegen . the leaders of europe has no clear visions worded . a commission which , according to criteria of the representation of the individual member states is structured , betrays little vision . in such a centralised union had the small countries less than the small federal states in the united states zweikammernsystem influence . after the cardiff summit , where we are all concerned to find a solution tried to put a stop to the dialogue between barak and president arafat reappeared under way , we have is realised what a difficult , even though it appears to have had slim , the violence bezwungen them . sharm el-sheikh but of violence and briefly bad informants have obviously mr barón crespo , things about italy and my party to speak , who are untrue . prompted it is an important step forward in the european energy taxation , which so far by the unanimity principle was blocked . we should not happen with the small states who fear that we could go on direktoratslösungen dreamed that originates . in my opinion , the convention has done excellent work , and also , i am proud that i was privileged consigned this body . the second question is , in which the principle of large and small countries have completely equal rotation system should be applied . hypothesis intervals in relation to the extension of qualified majority , together with the codecision procedure on such important areas where the maintenance of article 250 in its present form , and the commission 's role in the intensified cooperation and not only the first pillar - these are some points , on the basis of which we cannot assess whether culminate in a success or a failure wrongdoing . seat in the vote immediately mr president , i would like to begin by thanking jacques delors , and fernand herman and all of vaclav havel carlo ciampi , by up to jacques chirac , up to pierre moscovici , by up to costa simitis , without florence and the large number of meps to forget who has once again for the huge movement in favour of a european constitution have used up to joschka fischer by michel barnier chris patten , altiero spinelli present since 1999 . we ought to commercial europe does not place too much criticize - this tells you a socialist - because there has increasing wealth created for all . we should do about this objective , and because we do this , we should also say that as it is to achieve . us at least some i am pleased to note that the recent proposals presented in fact wholly or partly with the views expressed by my coincide . at the intergovernmental conference mr president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen rapporteurs very much , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , you had hoped that this morning 's debate on the issues that your house has , in april this year annexed to the intergovernmental conference to be supplemented . torment takes place deemed it necessary to avis consequently it seems to me , in spite of respecting the existing framework to be - as i would like to say frankly - more than the laying-down of parliament 's opinion on the introduction of such cooperation . constitutional difficult as you know , this presupposes that we are certain political choices made by far greater extent than the three which i have just outlined requirements . i myself have underlined the need for the charter method used to be an option . erwägende was also however , i quite understand that , apart from linguistic aspect of your question is hidden behind a further concern . this is why i would like to thank you for the sake of form and content of your initiative . the introduction of enhanced cooperation should not by creating new institutions appended to the existing institutions of the union . it is high time that the treaties to be reviewed . this europe of the european council with its refusal to the european charter of fundamental rights into the treaties and to the citizens in their rights are violated , access to the european court of justice must be opened up . including them legally-binding consensus violated otherwise , i think that europe will be the citizens of unable to have . paragraph 8 : the constitution should - and i quote - ' of the questions laissées ouvertes ' rules . what has changed since then , is unable to me to explain self-explanatory . remembering secondly , we are talking about an inadequate , the questions put aside ignores , for the future of the european union and the interests of citizens are of particular importance . task-setting mr president-in-office of the transmission of the russian orthodox church eve of the bolschewistischen revolution - an event which for the whole world , disastrous effects on the design of the roben on fastenzeit . lengthy discussions should - in reportedly issued that is why the closer cooperation between all the guarantees which the rapporteur has outlined : they must be open to all those who are the spirit of the treaties must be respected and should not run counter to the community acquis . on one point i would like to point out , however , it is not right to demand sketch out or in this direction - a compulsory referendum , precisely in order to adopt the proposed amendments to decide . seems to me in all member states we have had a very thorough debate on two issues , although they are different , but on one point meetings . we are prepared to say that it during the meeting in november a vote there , and the adoption thus during the french presidency will take place . imbued ( parliament adopted the resolution ) what does " the introduction of the possibility of altersteilzeit ' because more than a threat to the many countries have been far too high pensionable age ? we know essen pensioners as well as the marmelade like children . i have pensioners who commenting on the pensioners ' party in the european parliament despatched who have asked whether they like genetically modified drink wine break-up . furthermore , unremarked in exceptional cases standardvermehrungsgut commoditised , can be no need for other categories be covered by the though . i ask you , mr president , misrepresents the differences in labour costs , therefore , is a restriction of free competition in the european union time-tabling ? why could only be opposed to it , which i did . in spite of increased liberalisation of the european union erupts state aid is still a constructive role in achieving the social and economic progress . for the environment , the safeguarding of public service and to guarantee equal income for the inhabitants structurally weak regions can this aid will be essential . we are doing at the risk that the eu cementing its control over the significant state aid is also less extensive aid under the pretext target will take , for competition between small and medium-sized enterprises are concerned wanting to draw attention . section vi - economic and social committee if we look at the implementation of the budget heading 2 , 3 , 4 and 7 , becomes clear that an average only 8 % of commitments by payments are met . fälligkeitspläne three years ago we have with our employment strategy begun to do so by small and medium-sized enterprises halfen , chancenkapital to obtain . parliament wants that in two ways to do so . only then will the european institutions , but also its term of office . i should like at this point , specifically with regard to the vice-president responsible for budgets , mr gerhard schmid , for their constructive cooperation . we want to see that this committee acquires its capacity , but we cannot allow that there least- at the european parliament 's demands as part of the budgetary authority will be heard . in other words , 2001 is the last total annual budget , and that also forms the backdrop to the assessment of the commission 's proposal and of the proposal , which we in parliament . submit offers we also want to see a review of the administrative expenditure . since 1985 - modification , since 85 , trying to achieve that , in the process of the european parliament , the financial consequences of the resolutions adopted by the house to take into account parliament 's committee on budgets . i shall conclude , mr president , i thank you , the joint declaration on their respective procedures describing the other institutions for the care . today they have to decide on a budget of the council has been amended at first reading . as far as the structural fund is concerned , the proposed financial package , compared with the 2000 budget virtually the same . the council 's attitude towards the revision of the financial perspective is purely businesslike . these three different figures , then we can see that there is still considerable differences there are also purely quantitative terms , of course , also in content . if one looks at i should like to point out that the comitology procedure after a long debate last year , a new decision on this arose , and i have little hope that this debate reopen sympathizes with the council . in the financial perspective in berlin for the period from 2000 to 2006 were on the meda programme was 8.1 billion euros earmarked . that is why i should like to ask , in its foreign policy considerations also thinking about foreign policy and not just haushaltspolitisch . budgets here in parliament and council the second point relates to the aid to victims of human rights violations , the treatment of special institutions need . if it is still pending a compromise solution to the important work of the emac-ausschusses supported , and that we can still rules , otherwise we consider the position of our committee . openly here at the time bedding we only need to televisions mapping and will give us the problems in the middle east , in order to be considered on a daily basis remembered too . i therefore hope that we in the vote tomorrow will still have to requisite majority in favour of the monitoring centre in dublin come ! mr president , allow me to speak on behalf of the committee on agriculture and rural development in a few comments , firstly on the development of rural areas . we have asked to authorise the indikativer appropriations amounting to eur 2 million for an information campaign on the cfp . the commission must have strong arguments , in order to achieve , and the council and the governments concerned , it is this non-negotiable political impetus to negotiate a reasonable agreement with morocco task . we look at the 2001 budget today , the pictures of the serbian population before our very eyes . overall , we would like to see that these amendments are adopted . an important opportunity for people to open up in order to make its voice heard , is to complain to the ombudsman or petitions to parliament to follow . firstly , the parliamentary budget . the surprise of many members of my delegation we adopted unanimously by the 400 amendments made by some of my colleagues have been tabled , which were so many of us in the budgets committee rather surprising . early september kernstrategie . a great came it is difficult , as with new posts to be resolved , both in the commission and the council outdated and intricate methods of management of the many programmes are being applied . apportioning verwaltungsproblem until this parliament has repeatedly shown that it rigour on the basis of his work . power over the past few years ; it is not acceptable that there are very blithely spend on commitments and she repeated pleases , but when it comes to say that we are now too far , since we now need a piece of zurückschneiden ! uncovered figures over the years speaks if we can be just a few million on the lines - it does not , then we would point out , and if the people they actually need , however , we prefer them again . putting a lot more - the speckseite here the 2001 budget state-of-the-art as the budget last year , nearly lösbaren conflicts , due to pressure from the consolidation and frugality , as it was decided in the context of the interinstitutional agreement in order to finance the enlargement sure , to hand the acute borrowing the stability pact for the balkans . not calls for better performance include more staff . the adoption of this amendment in its original version was the starting point for a change in the situation may be , but it is committee on budgets was rejected by a majority . unfortunately , there is still a lot of examples of preferential treatment with federalist ambition of many ngos , with highly dubious modus operandi and views on the financing of european political parties to the prince programme vergeudeten sums of money , with the citizens of the benefits of the euro are to be a loss suffers from the europeans of our danish colleagues on the leaders of the european central bank broadly share . over-enthusiastic during this up for this : associations or until finally , my colleague mr heaton-harris , with its amendments to the one-sidedness of numerous european programmes flagged in which the citizens with a propagandastory about european integration to be duly noted at the expense of the citizens themselves . traktiert in addition to our systems be modernised . we must also set an example . a good example of the meda programme for the mediterranean basin , a geographical area of the highest strategic importance . the latter is if some people about necessary reductions or the tracking down of funds in category 4 speak in order to be able to finance , then please do not forget that parliament has established that we have expressed in the committee vote clearly expressed . certain priorities priorities . this figure is , therefore , a clarification . thank you very much , mr wynn . it simply means the existence of intrinsic elements of flexibility to move to a certain stride , whereas some cannot or do you wish . moreover , the distrustful also true for the applicant countries . separately continue this in my opinion , austria has no reason to complain about the outcome of lamenting the fact , quite the opposite . this could be the recommendations of the regional organisations and the experience of the neighbouring countries doubtless a useful contribution . in 1984 owned 0.2 % of the landowners in colombia 32 % of land . it is not up to the council , or those aspects of this extremely sensitive and painful issue commenting on this . but nor can we fail in this way , a debate on issues , which - as i said , extremely complicated . question no 10 by ( h-0722 / 00 ) : i shall therefore take care not to a definitive answer on this difficult question . we only have the feeling , and your reply that seems to confirm that the presidency is to be included in this matter some degree of consistency dearth instils a certain extent . therefore , that emergence from this tax , of course to be zero . i forgive you too , but we must stick to the rules of procedure . the reason why it is on the right hand has been one of these issues have been clarified , and we believe that we have the same things are not occasions discussed and our valuable time . thus lies , above all , we once did so quiet furthermore , as a temporary solution until the adoption of this text on the prevention of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies in june 2000 , a decision taken out of risk-containing material in connection with these diseases have been introduced in order to take any further spread of epidemic to prevent and for the highest possible level to guarantee the consumer . i have outlined rulings on any other information as to which you have just described . we are aware of the work of the commission and the council adjoin the erika i package and are well informed about what this meeresstraße relates to the two countries and also throughout the european union as an extremely difficult meeresstraße by all of us , in order to save money , and the danger is that , due to run a disaster , i would have liked , above all the inhabitants of corsica and by sardinien wondering whether it is possible and whether you intend to passage through the streets of bonifacio for these large ships , these container ships and simply to ban ? large ships through just a few hours old rostkähne somewhere and cause and in . that is why we should support what the commission 's proposals for a revision of the staffing policy . in the budget will be for serbia and kosovo for the new money is needed . in conclusion , i should like to express the hope that we in the budget still eur 50 million can , in order to find the peace agreement israel-plo to finance . that is why we are proposing in the european parliament , which is not so much to the search for additional finance - of which we already know that they do not find them - but to define the new interinstitutional commitments objectives which the quality of expenditure normalized and can be achieved , however , that not one euro being wasted . new measures in the current circumstances remember it is in the european policy , as in any other , temperate options may no longer the majority . it serves the verdunkelung because of the enlightenment and which are now being shown stance in relation to the activity-based budgeting disappointed me greatly . inclined in addition , leads to the division of actions to the fact that one of the budget as a political instrument realises that the division of expenditure unambivalent policy priorities reflection . we should not lead to take this opportunity to find a solution which was in order to ensure that we have discussed the possibility of financing the reconstruction of the balkans next year and übernächstes again . several years these anyone who wants to the development of sustainable agriculture , which will be aware of the recent reforms consists of a transition from price support to direct income support for farmers to take an interest in that hauptvorstoß agreed in berlin continuous products . a budget is always more than a uninspiring zahlenreihe . moreover , it is also the common agricultural policy , for the meda programme , for the socially excluded , in order to cut resources for the financing of the european union 's commitments in kosovo and in yugoslavia identifiable . immoral ; a simple one : the situation in serbia , the people in this winter will freeze or even starve . furthermore i would like to express my concern that the various jugendparlamente in the socrates programme have been included . addressed to the council must of course also be said that the council also bears responsibility for its faulty handling of some außenprogramme . strongly-held we now need a stable solution for these aids and in a much greater extent for the necessary planning for all the western balkans now . i believe that most people would be prepared to such a figure on condition that the money is used to accept correctly . i share the concerns and views of the rapporteur , mrs rühle , for you here this afternoon in connection with the chapters research and social describing . a fortnight ago there was the joint parliamentary assembly of the acp countries instead . simultaneously , which should be used in the funds for research and information budgetary resources , in order to produktionsalternativen for current tobacco growers to bury . that is what we want to i would like to stress that the european union , which relates to the direct and more positive influence on the one who has had to reflect . emphatically northern ireland according to this model is compliance with the rules of procedure by means of an independent authority and in the last instance through the courts safeguarded . so we will be a codecision procedure at first reading , and this is an extremely complex and with many technical difficulties behafteten text for a sector that is in relation to the protection of privacy is particularly sensitive . first can complete it is a very positive aspect of their tasks were not brought together . it is well known that the schengen system over 10 million data on almost 1.5 million citizens who are in fact europol be extended to the information from the individual police authorities of the 15 member states centrally , but only under the control of an authority which is neither the competence nor the means to really still has a different role to play . stored whose powers , constant , for example , zusammenlaufen having said this , and i use the presence of the commissioner to indicate that it is in my opinion , not only for the protection of citizens in the light of new technologies , but also for the use of these technologies in the interests of better aptitude for eu citizens , who mapping and interactive with the european institutions to ensure that it should communicate . in addition , amendments nos 1 , 2 , 4 and 10 , 12 40 , 42 54 , 57 and 58 and 60 64 , the council text on those points included in which the commission can accept . elapse before it goes without saying that , in its opinions on the legislative proposals on the protection of personal data will be very helpful insofar as they are an important contribution to legislative debate between the institutions todhchaí . so recognises that the ultra peripheral regions , a difficult economic and social situation vary according to the specific disadvantages which by their permanent situation and the development of these regions greatly affect . interaction , through its being hampered by the treaty in this way will the strategy on a high level of promoting economic and social progress contribute . so i am addressing mrs sudre . we can await with interest the development of the commission 's proposals , so that the special features in article 299 ( 2 ) of the treaty of amsterdam will soon be taken into account . congratulations from normative for many europeans are some ultra peripheral regions , just a touristisches aimed at the map . our unemployment among the top of the union . i am pleased that the committee which i have tabled amendments with a large majority . i think it is particularly important that the outermost regions in the pan-european transport , energy and telecommunications networks are included . the unanimous approval of the report presented by the members of the committee on regional policy is an indication of the faithful to the european parliament of its most important duties . margie by our colleague mrs sudre we cannot discuss here on the whole conditions and believe that it can achieve this , even if we want to call - no longer be necessary , will further measures for dealing with these three areas , especially in the outermost regions which we are discussing today , to take up with satisfactory idyllischen situation - it times . this puts us in a position to do everything possible , but allows us to ensure that our work to strengthen and - i think that is needed - to extend and improve . articles , although not in order to prepare the necessary proposals , the commission is working with of course the member states and the regions concerned together . the difficulty of these regions wise men - we know - lasting nature of , and i therefore believe that they are as depending on their actual ratio permanently on the support of the regional policy and on special measures reliant . during the year 2001 might reaffirming such a meeting will be carried out , if we do with the implementation of the programme presented in march a bit further arrived . the presidency has been decided that this matter has been completed , and i do not accept this without any reservations . i think that parliament should be the best way to the current rules , as often as is another colleague has said - not the appliances which do not have been working , but individual members who have forgotten realizing . and if a vote subsequently correct , then we would never have come to an end obliteration . i am in fact , what i osce . ultimately , mr commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , it is , quite apart from the authority to require the competent services of the commission in cooperation and coordination with member states homogener and effective controls in the entire food chain and that the network of lebensmittellabors within the european union expanded and in coordination with the commission is currently working on a system construct . since it cannot be allowed to come up with national research and the eu-forschungszentren worked out . undergoing scientific research overlapping must today we are discussing a white paper , and we anyway lamentation , be some important principles . these procedures have been improved and altered , moreover , we in the united kingdom an agency for legensmittelstandards set up . finally , i would like to point out that we also support amendments nos 11 and 13 and 7 to 9th relating to amendment no 14 we call for a free . some of the new , against that background , i would like to say the following : firstly , the food safety can only be guaranteed if strict official inspections carried out , and these controls are just as effectively as the weakest link in their respective chain . we are debating a subject on which clearly proves , as superficial and inhaltslos our debate on the political unification of europe . we therefore entrust the european food safety authority solely with the scientific testing in cooperation with our national authorities . it is important . most of the lebensmittelbedingten diseases of which europe today is concerned , deficiency first on the american continent to . however , we must take the necessary conditions for recourse to the authority is intended to be efficient and rapid action is guaranteed . we should also like to point out , as some previous speakers have done , including in particular mr whitehead , mrs gebhardt , that the white paper is a great deal more than a new set of rules clear-out by the european union . mr president , i am pleased gratitude to both the commission , who work for a better food safety has begun , and also to mr bowis and the entire committee on the environment , public health and consumer policy . today ; as i think it is particularly amendment no 17 , in which a involvement of the consumer is being called for . another point is the review of the legislation on the labelling of food as well as for the retail trade , the protection of consumers in the traceability of products and their ingredients endlich correctly informed and the investigation possible responsibilities lie with risks and crises will enable both for the city by the preconceptions . new regulations are not believe that the right response , if the existing provisions are not complied with . with regard to the vote on the committee on the environment , public health and consumer policy has managed to a certain balance reestablish , we are making the scope of the ernährungsprobleme broadened and some important references to the role of small and medium-sized undertakings for the preservation of different eating habits have taken on board . mr president , i would like to join other members and the rapporteur , mr bowis , for his very constructive and coherent approach to this problem compliment . mr president , the fact that the white paper on food safety itself no legal value , harms the twofold significance to the him without any doubt burner , not the slightest . the rapporteur and a great many members of our committee , including myself , have to insist on the food authority pigeonholes what actually somewhat regrettable . the independence and integrity of the authority is the position of european consumers are best served . during this process , i have often thought that we in the selection of the rapporteur , a happy hand have experienced . mr president , i too would like to thank mr bowis , my congratulations on his laudable attempt to pay tribute to all opinions in his report to be included , and wish him well for the fact that the reference to the broader concept of diet has accepted . above all , he finally , the policy does not shirk its responsibilities . the most important task is , however , that this body in respect of other scientific committees which public confidence and the willingness of the governments in the member states buys , by its decisions to be accepted . as i see it as a food authority for the future . we have the world health organisation in geneva . i verschweige nor that i argued in the publication of the white paper against the authority perplexed . it is therefore to ensure that the european union at the highest lebensmittelsicherheitsstandards at its disposal , but in the context of this on unanimous approval stoßenden approach , the economic consequences for producers analysed . the remit of the authority will be an independent scientific research and mentorship , independent controls and inspections and an early warning system , but also coordination of restoring confidence . embraces : i would like to take this opportunity to rostrums which a solution in relation to the promotion of local specialities and traditional lebensmittelerzeugnisse called for , assure you that this issue in the hygiene is taken into account . discrete it is the commission to facilitate a balanced proposal , in the position of parliament and the many players in the field of food safety broadly taken into account . our parliament is dealing with this issue , but these issues were sewn together with others in political terms , the deciding factor for the signing of the convention ottawa . it is not the first time anti-personnel mines i reiterate my rejection of amendments nos 10 , 19 , which is due to the coherence of the budget , and ask for a split vote on the individual parts to the wording of the entire text which , in my opinion on certain misinterpretations are suffering , to improve . amendment no 29 and this is the first question is : the countries which have not signed by the european union , especially the commission , on the signature of the convention ottawa will be required . milosevices , mr president , ladies and gentlemen , we all know what the consequences of the anti-personnel mines , although it cases in often great military justification is there . parliament has made this subject 1996 on the agenda , as it is a budget line and a proper legal basis to establish a common platform for wide-range of our actions in this important area of employment . first brought horizontal called i cannot , however , hide the fact that the persuasion of the european union in relation to other countries by the fact is that in some member states still have problems with regard to signing and ratifying the aarhus convention . consist of something derogated the effectiveness of mine action is greatest , if this individually refer to the special conditions in the situation tailored are . parliament knows that it is that there are already too many . as you know , we intend to do with our proposals on reform of external aid from the expensive verification of individual projects modifying and us during the discussion with the member states instead of general strategies and programmes focus . many ngos have been established , which deals with this problem . nonetheless , we must four years after the first united nations conference on the issue land-mines in geneva and over a year after the entry into force of the convention ottawa noticed that many countries , mainly in the world 's poorest regions , which are still in erschreckendem overvaluation of the risk of anti-personnel landmines and shooting and ammunition which do not explode , are being subjected to . employ thousands of people and the commission needs to be the quality of their programmes improve and accelerate their implementation . if you will see that these amendments to carefully examine , so it seems to me , however , that some of which you mentioned applications campaigns , transparency , ngo access to the appropriations and things that are currently quite properly , whose effectiveness , but there can be improved . h-0528 : mrs bonino and mr patten have also agree with your view that the council and parliament 's administration fools . i heard mr patten on this point , because it does seem to think that we should be even less meddle . listened very carefully indeed from should mr president , our group is working on for many years for the whole range of requirements and action taken by the produktionsstopp on the destruction of the minenbestände , the attitude of the marketing of the evacuation of the mines up for the rehabilitation of minenopfer and public awareness . in this area necessary - then there is the task of the member states , this process at international level to support . the mines are of course a major obstacle to the reconstruction work in these countries as well as for the return of refugees impediment . under the current rate of evacuation - as has been said here earlier - far more than 100 years need in order to earth from the antipersonnel mines to cleanse . we would the third area i see some concrete measures , which we propose to check and should follow . every child , which we are in bosnia , africa and elsewhere - before the minentod or terrible injury to maintain the effort by all value . it must , in fact , to put pressure on those countries which have ratified the still have not signed , such as finland , or the as yet , such as greece will be exercised . ladies and gentlemen , look at it again finland ! finally , let us hope that in the context of the future of the common european forces professionals trained , especially local people , which is something that is that the mines are disappearing . duties and they underline , nor that of the list of countries most affected , above all developing countries are . parliament 's demands could hardly ever more clearly in breach of the lisbon agenda . the rapporteur , mrs van lancker , want to say that parliament modifications of the commission 's proposal decides , particularly through the adding of different areas in which legislation advisable , as well as through the definition of certain rights at european level . apparently , the luxembourg approach to the employment policy , which applies to the social protection and social exclusion is being extended . the superpowers germany , france , great britain and italy are all agreed that they are small eastern and southern european countries which want to join the european union and its domination subjugate wanting to some extent . we believe , however , for legal reasons for misnomer , they are already in nature . 6 teu with regard to briefcases , because they are in the convention - its structure under - not formally could be any legal foundation , and therefore decided on . the inclusion of new texts in the treaties could lead to legal uncertainty . the fact is that the rapporteur on the mouthpiece of the new theory of the so-called dual legitimacy of the european union , namely by the european parliament represent the citizens and by the council countries represented . modern in brussels the swedish and danish social democrats have today voted against the report by oliver duhamel over the constitutionalising the treaties . to this end , the european union towards a constitution to develop the charter of fundamental rights coverage . a constitution would only make sense if they are the democratic framework for a genuine european federation , the united states of europe , which form dignity . he said that he is in line with a large part of the political class to the realised that our relations with the other countries preferred by an international treaty governed by asking what . . ( en ) i welcome the report by mr duhamel as an interesting and constructive contribution to the concept of constitutionalising the treaties . we believe that a reorganization and simplification of the treaties , the competence of the eu - and their borders - and procedures for exercising this responsibility clearly identified . it easier for people dignity up until the treaty of amsterdam in 1997 was europe an intergovernmental supersyndikat . the edd group is voting against the report by mr gil-robles gil-delgado on enhanced cooperation . it is the concept of a union in which every form of cooperation within a single institutional framework dramas and on the objective of a super-state geared to be . revealed far too monolithischen " . ' it is therefore a general slow-down will be prevented by certain member states , the development of closer cooperation with a possible will proceed more quickly . the structures of the internal market to function since the early 1990s very successfully . - ( nl ) the cooperation at european level can for resolving cross-border problems useful . these regions could be regarded as an excellent versuchsstation for sustainable development serve . the technocrats and the european judges , for example , dock dues octroi de mer , abolish of our citizens in the overseas territories with resources cared for and , above all , our cottage protects . wanted saloon . ' france has , however departments in the indian ocean and the caribbean . its independence is a sine qua non for its credibility . our vote , therefore , to clarify the role and the composition of the planned european authority helped , but it also has its financing and its independence specifying our requirements . secondly , the european agency must be totally independent . we need the kind of agricultural and agroindustriellen practices , the problem of the composition of the ingredients in animal ceilings for dioxins and for pesticide residues in food and other account and food safety prioritise . nahrungsgüterimporte , which , additives we have voted in favour of amendment no 15 , because this is the defence of europe 's cultural heritage in the field of lebensmittelerzeugung ground dear . in practically no category left us with a margin . since we are now even 50 % in the budget line and 50 % in reserve prioritised . the question is this , as reconcilable accommodated . report ( a5-0300 / 2000 ) by mrs haug , on behalf of the committee on budgets on draft general budget of the european union 's budget for 2001 , section iii - commission ( c5-0300 / 2000 - 1999 / 2190 ( bud ) ) madam president , my name appears among several amendments to this report . ( parliament adopted the legislative resolution ) the real astonishment that this budget resides in the field of external policy areas , where selfishness and knauserei robustness . either through the use of the flexibility instrument can appropriations released . . ( el ) i voted against the haug report and for my group 's proposal that the overall budget 2001 must be rejected . we are thinking in particular to the new pilot project to be financed from within this framework information measures to combat paedophilia . not least , this indicates that little commitment to the eu project , even under the politically active citizens . in this way traps 20 to 30 % of the markets in turn of the private sector to competition . since this with vorliegendem report does not guarantee is that i have voted against the report . we look at the unacceptably low thresholds which , in connection with the proposed cuts in the rücknahmemengen at 5 % , when apples and pears and on the other , then it is clear that huge quantities of com in processed fruit and vegetable no longer be able , as far as the overall shirk that fruit and vegetables fields and in the food processors verrotten lamentation , thereby forcing farmers will have their pflanzungen to grub up . citrus 8.5 % to 10 % in fruit and gemüsesorten national aid to reduce prices deposed i voted in favour of this report because it to the expectations of the portuguese organizations of the fruit and vegetable corresponds to a dramatic change in the com in fruit and vegetables called for , as do you think that the national interests profoundly damaging this . johan van hecke 's report ( a5-0296 / 2000 ) the root of the problem is that everything , even the quality of the environment and the climate , the capitalist exploitation of productive resources and the superprofiten being sacrificed . departure in kyoto was that the rich countries vent themselves strictly keeping them , however , have the opportunity , with your help in other countries reductions in their own ergebnisliste to chalk up . subsequently achieved penetrates into their - ( fr ) the fight against the greenhouse effect is a great challenge for the industrialised countries and a duty , particularly with regard to the peoples of the third world , the effects of global warming already with her life . the art of life consists of using these risks and insecurities adequately deal . even the efforts of the suspected substances to explore , possibly by means of a legal framework ­ continue and strengthen . endokrin effective exact are ­ consumers and smes unsettles of introducing the euro happened internal market does not sufficiently profitable . the banks are indeed up to now by the member states undertook to cross-border payments of eur 12 500 to zahlungsbilanzstatistischen purposes of its central bank to speak . of course apply to them the same strict requirements in terms of security and money-laundering . we know there are cases where the cross-border credit transfers , according to the euro has been increased , and not just a small amount . overqualified überweisungsgebühren the european central bank could help , with the implementation of the single european datenformats in payment transactions and with the support of the implementation of a single european bankleitzahl within the international iban-systems . the fact that consumers have the euro accept , is of crucial importance . madam president , mrs peijs ' report on the massenzahlungsverkehr takes up the old demands of the european parliament concerning the high costs for cross-border credit transfers in the union reappeared on the internal market . the peijs report puts it in recital d of the resolution itself , where it says that the high charges for auslandsüberweisungen ' consumer confidence in the euro shake ' . festival so there is still far too , but the funds and the possibilities of politicians , what we can do , in this area are lower than ours manoeuvre on the question of payment systems in the internal market . the formulas will in future too , and the citizens understand that in this area in which priced out of electronic payment with internet-banking will , of course , a transfer of munich , to salzburg considerably more than a transfer from munich , to kiel . perceived as binnenraum not exchange risk and increasingly to achieve this we will have , and they are still many years to work . on this occasion , we will be on a shorter duration of the phasing out cross-border transfers to fall into the report by mrs peijs pressed for , will speak . the debate is closed . the right policy consists of a pragmatic approach , which is the small business at the heart of power , and not a proposal on the pretext that all-embracing avoid wanting to only serve to correct statistics to produce the concretely to take nothing amiss . aware of and kmu-nahen to prioritise its instruments which would however , more specifically , i have three comments on this programme . it is worth recalling that the first community action in this area 1983 was adopted , i.e. before 17 years . i am also has always been in favour of this on the basis of an efficient and pragmatic policy should be . i would outposts of the economy and the innovating described in the front line , and the areas in existing risks directly exposed . you as a genuine finally , we also have the results of the brussels ' governance ' , which last week in brussels under the auspices of the institute for technological zukunftsforschung in seville , as well as the folgearbeiten on that account , because there are many connections to today 's topic . academia and has taken place symposium the rapporteur listing several points on which a framework for companies in europe . this is excellent news for europe , because technically correct , competent and soon we can help . mr president , i too would like to add my thanks for the excellent work of mrs montfort . it is important to measure well , to avoid a situation in which people are constantly at the expense of other failure . this is unfair , which is why i support this report ! this is also the guiding principle of the charter for small businesses . the programme is designed to ensure that this will be informed about the networks allocated . the main aim of this plan is evidently the control of immigration in the countries of the european union and the readmission of all europe illegally resident in their home countries . in particular , i would point out that measures to improve internal security , intensifying the dialogue between europeans and local bodies in albania and - as far as the commission and the council is concerned , in cooperation with the albanian , the italian and the greek authorities targeted actions are required . the inadequate social , economic and political conditions in combination with faults or defective legal certainty and organised crime will lead to massive wanderbewegungen . mr president , in contrast to mrs pack , i believe that the more groups to deal with albania and the sooner the better it is . obviously , we must not a solution for the whole issue racing , but medium-term we create a world with an appropriate equity , with security and zukunftsmöglichkeiten immediately . in addition , there is a chasm between us , the european union , and the united states - that the financial resources , and on the one hand and the local population on the other . dgl. projects publicize backers - we are therefore bilateral agreements which are legally and clearly to the activities of the whereabouts of remuneration , working hours , working conditions and the conditions enshrine in order to become a force which will be the economies of our countries and in a spirit of the cold war to stir up the friendship and cooperation between peoples . helps promote rather than nationalist aspirations seize the aufenthaltsdauer sozialversicherungsrechtlichen immigrants people are sent back to the partly well integrated amach . we must not , however , can fleshing out the migranten- and stream curb but which is how the situation in the region so that they are the people to stay at home . centred on mr president , i also believe that , as mr dimitrakopoulos quite rightly been pointed out by the central issue in terms of economic and social rights and the internal security problems in albania remains a problem with that country in the reconstruction of the rule of law , in order to guarantee the safety of citizens and the restoration of the reputation of the institutions and local administrations to support . i am as my colleague mr liese 's view that we need a sharing the burden of asylum and refugee policy . the action plan for albania and the neighbouring regions has been adopted in june this year . it is therefore of the sixth action plan . there is sometimes frustration , but also towards the right one , and we want for ourselves , but also the other institutions to call for the detailed work does not lead to work and also make the necessary time and the necessary staff available to . shy away from precise mühsal here fremdheit european we want to send out a signal to the citizens that we are complaining about the lack of quality of legislation and the complaining about überregionalisierung centralism and seriously with this report . it goes without saying that this subject in itself extremely important , even though the small number of participants in this chamber on this succeeding debate at first sight , in fact dagegenspricht now . in addition , the report inevitably raises the question of subsidiarity , which , in this chamber this evening somewhat controversial . would you also in the light of this principle an inventory of legislation undertake to bring these simpler , more transparent , efficient and more focused and to make superfluous legislation to be deleted , as in paragraph 6 of this report stimulated will be of interest . after a very thorough examination of the report i am to the conclusion that it is also no political principle is : there is a theological . this means that the principle of subsidiarity in the smallest municipalities , the local authorities , the intermediary organisations , the social classes , families and the only ones who really want the sovereignty of the legislative and administrative operation of the exercise , must be guaranteed to be made . penetrate people let me , therefore , a summary vat-free . i give the floor to the commissioner . it will be talking about an area that we detail of regulate that should be guaranteed everywhere , or should we consider whether a voluntary agreement , provided that it can be implemented and controlled , the alternative is implemented ? i have voted in favour of the report , although i do not believe that it deals with the high level of wechsel- and transfer costs in the area . preoccupied with some amendments till - if the fifteen months in eleven member states are still the same notes and coins in transport being brought to the acquisition of this single currency outside their own wohnsitzlandes more expensive . kin mr president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , i begin by expressing my regret that , however , that this must be for the fisheries commissioner fischler , today we are not here . it must be an agreement which is the blocked the moroccan fisheries sector , but also the fishing interests of the european fleets are fully taken into account . gives fresh impetus and consequently , we have to build a partnership agreement with morocco , which will have its position within the framework of a meeting which , as you pointed out , on 30 october , i.e. monday in brussels . responsibly health-related a few weeks ago i was myself in the spanish coast . this is just north of morocco . algeciras during the time has been shown that they are not only is difficult , but even when impossible to highlight obliteration . through the agreements can the european union fishing undertake and with third countries fishing rights harmonise . in a swedish fischereifachzeitschrift was to be read as one of these vessels fish in el aaiún land has been made , as moroccan ports has been described . relocates all this into question . it will come about all of our fisheries agreement with morocco , because this agreement with mauritania and , soon , with guinea-conakry is being tested against and not just that . it has taken place , which is to be achieved turning-point in the workplace , and so we also know , the latest measures taken by commissioner fischler appreciative of the results of his mission to morocco and the high level , even with the könig , discussions on 26 september 11 months now , mentorship 30.10. to achieve . but i would like a few brief messages to the commission to send today is the worthily by commissioner busquin being represented . my question to the commission is this : if no agreement with morocco will be achieved if this agreement with the commission 's signalisierten conditions concluded an agreement on the stimulation of production , does the commission then structural measures to compensate for the disadvantage to take the regions concerned will develop ? oder , will moroccan as we have had foresee that were the negotiations with the moroccan authorities extremely difficult . should the outcome of the failure of the negotiations , the union has finally the political and moral duty to fishermen and shipowners with sufficient funding to help them to make a living for themselves . unwanted the over-capacity of the fishing industry of the eu must be reduced . that is why we need earliest close economic and political relations with morocco , while enforcement of our european fishing interests . therefore , the commission is working on the basis of a new partnership , the one hand , the promotion of the fisheries sector , the fleet , aquaculture , industrial processing and research and on the granting of fishing opportunities for european fishermen . comprising , for mutually beneficial flourishes in morocco women 's rights lecturers ' this is not only in the german language is a clear distinction . in july 1999 the commission has this infringement proceedings before the court of justice . if it is therefore not to be desired in harmonising systems must , therefore , as things currently stand , the principle of subsidiarity does not mean that what is likely to be a requirement for privilege is , as discrimination dismissed . part-financed by us erupts admittedly , the previous commission under president santer was perhaps not the best , why did you too . members of the committee on legal and internal market from across the union and from all parties are gathered here , in order to enquiring , that there is no point on which to speak for rechtschartas engaging in cases where human rights refused to take effective measures , so that they recognised and enforced , and therein lies in this case , the problem . rights and , if we are not necessarily leads inevitably have to be made this is in a modern europe really not acceptable . of course the education sector is still under the principle of subsidiarity , but within the framework of the treaties are the free movement of workers and the ban on discrimination , even though we are particularly , because i am very federal state - the subsidiarity principle as ordnungsprinzip of cooperation in the european union espouse and we can to ensure that the kompetenzaufteilungen between levels in europe accordance with the principle of subsidiarity should be combined . falls to us all self-respecting - and i for one shall earliest this can no longer the case of discrimination . mr president , would you , from an excellent acquainted with the surgery in italian , french and german or by a surgeon servicing lamentation ? fachbegriffe ( the sitting was closed at 10.56 p.m. ) we are talking about them our deepest sympathy and sincere sympathy for it . has the floor , mr ceyhun ; he refers to the rapporteur and also on behalf of the socialist group . with regard to the council and commission statements on the third asia-europe meeting with the council tells us that he is currently no statement wishes . it is therefore a question of the european citizens from the 15 eu member states to live apart from the many people who come from outside , because we are dealing here with a view to costa del sol , but not exclusively , because in this area and in their einzugsbereich for which it is not even an emergency plan under the treaties and under the euratom treaty within the competence of the commission is ; it affects many citizens or can affect many citizens spaniard ; there are hundreds anyway . madam president , it is annoying , but very informative , by the spanish minister , mr mayor oreja to hear that conversations with basque nationalists uselessly , even if a future cease-fire in herausspränge . exhibiting i should enquiries as to whether this week a commission statement on the british government 's decision is planned to have a discriminatory tax for nichtbritische road introduce ? for since the so-called liberal parties , including the european increasingly tend to deal with xenophobic and racist and authoritarian inclined to allied forces , which is not just a serious threat to italy , but there has also referred to a problem out the whole of europe is concerned . - however , the report contains critical comments about the french proposal . these demands are subject to amendments nos 2 and 4 of the karamanou report . the french presidency , we are debating today , which has as its objective , the two above-mentioned general rechtshilfe-übereinkommen in criminal matters , especially in the area of combating money laundering , to improve . i can only say that if the idea of the fight against money laundering damaged , then this is the fault of the council and not of parliament . on the results of its work we can only congratulate you . the way to achieve this , of course , as mr marinho said - and i agree with his opinion - on which communitisation . otherness all the speakers agreed until now agree that this is a very valuable initiative , and we agree . europol must across frontiers can operate . there is still too much in our modern europe , and i want to create a recognition approve , i should first of fairer standards must be reinstated . mutual recognition before i understand that it is very difficult , because we in the construction of a fragmentation of the instruments must be based . but it is also a need to ensure that the european union , and it is also a desire for the citizens , which we bear in mind , for the citizens of the european union have a right to security . location strengths to have we must fight against money laundering , will lead us to be aware that there is , above all , after the establishment of an internal market and according to the liberalisation of the market for capital and financial services effective police and judicial cooperation between member states - as effectively as possible - in the european union a implacable needs . when an activity than finanzberater entitled to the adoption of the lawyer as such , would not his profession . nothing nevertheless , i am of course , aware that the question raised by several members of the conditions under which the confidentiality of the legal professions , the rejection of judicial cooperation in the area of combating money laundering can explain why that is very delicate . this applies particularly to severity , gravest and cross-border crime . overall , it is the task so great and so important that they are not the council alone cannot be solved . hence the need to strengthen citizens ' rights , we are making a legislative instrument to create and the jurisdiction of the court of justice recognised , especially in relation to questions to the interpretation and decisions . zweckdienliches even though i am in favour of more cooperation and coordination favour , but i think that the project to draw a legal framework to be making a mistake to why we will vote against it . there is also a second point is of interest . that is why the full participation in this house is so good . as several members have raised , i would like to take this opportunity to you in all honesty that , as mr coelho has just done - to say that we in this initiative , above all , the first initiative and see what the political will of the council is expressed in the compared to the police and judicial cooperation in the field of judicial cooperation . lagging behind existing very delicate matters it is , therefore , i am also very important instrument in order to judicial control of europol safeguarded . the programme for research in sectors such fisheries , agriculture and agro-industry was part of the fourth framework programme ,
