we are well aware that the relevant treaties are inadequate and be a different , more efficient structure for the union must be developed , namely a stronger institutional structure pronounced by a clear demarcation between the powers of the member states and the competencies of the union . it is initially embassies of concern about the economic and social difficulties we irrespective of constant growth as a result years efforts made by each of our fellow citizens are confronted . the current situation , the especially for many self-employed hauliers , for agriculture is unfeasible , must certainly be improved . the accommodation of the rules of procedure are good in itself , but we must ensure that the system is not as a political schlagwaffe can use . and now you have the right mince in glance , that you must follow . i agree with his warning against a for some tempting will return to the methods of intergovernmental cooperation . many of us want to see a federation of nation states on-going . it also implies that all its proper place will be taken . the rapporteur have levels of discussion underline and also the need to go further . self-evident but you can only endorse . the latter point , when we are facing a speech which the forces concerned study , but with them to become accustomed to them weigh must , as a political speech must always be realistic and is always the kräftesituation and which we all sought-after aims equation . i want us to take this closer cooperation , intervening in a few examples of the new performance of european socialists to submit . the vote will take place today at 12.30 p.m . amendment no 12 , the commission must reject . i am in favour of adopting regelungsentwurfs votes . i should , in the reports of the european court of auditors permanently aversion to low alerts pointed out that there are of greece to portugal and reoccur . so we have not voted in favour . the intermediaries , such buses not only cheap and globally applicable , but also to more environmentally friendly , but their fuel consumption per passenger is less . the report also calls for setting benchmarks in relation to the dissemination of best practices in the eu to . a binding charter and all-embracing with recoverable right could at some later date to create difficulties . i thank both for the sterling work they have done . we believe not , for having already for less than three months in nice will be concluded . for that reason alone we cannot vote in favour , the charter 's summit in nice in the treaty . the csu-europagruppe rejoicing that with this schlussentwurf the charter of fundamental rights which the citizens of the institutions of the eu rightful fundamental rights boiled down and be made visible . it is a reflection of emerging liberal europe . as i was liked of this charter will continue to be used , as many ngos from different eu member states have proposed . ( a5-0248 / 2000 ) by mr queiró on hungary [ com ( 1999 ) 505 - c5-0028 / 2000 - 1997 / 2175 ( cos ) ] ; i therefore propose to you that for us as parliament next year generalbericht shall no longer present , but just länderberichte to make it clear that there is a different state of negotiations concerns . my feeling is more that the french presidency on the basis of the work of previous presidencies and the commission will be in a position - at least i hope that , at the nice summit a fairly accurate overview of the accession process to be . as i mentioned here again , the french presidency will none of the difficulties evade that would not mean that we are timing and the possibility to each of these difficulties auszudiskutieren . this question is , of course perfectly understandable , but we need to opportune and appropriate response will be . it is quite a perspective which , to stop at großherzigkeit and enlightened must tackle . no one result of the intergovernmental conference would give mammoth anpassungsdruck enlargement justly . the second major change we are seeing and on which europe is discontinue need to understand the speedy speeding-up of economic development towards a global market and to the global competition . fourthly , it follows another principle that the member states , the eventually have started to a fair chance to do aufzuschließen , which were started . where copious and long-term investment is needed in order to eu standards can be reached , should be remembered that the existing members in this case lengthy transitional periods it took . for border security and crime-fighting will also be our standards and the benefits of european cooperation . now let us just the current trade between the european union and the countries of central and eastern europe . fortunately , the commissioner has at last give citizens first communicated to the fears that are discussed , be groundless . one thing is clear - and i welcome the fact that the commissioner that stressed again : a transitional period in which respect democratic rules cannot exist . they require aid from the commission , because there is a lack of determination at times of the relevant munitions . that is necessary for us as the european union goals can be asked to the internal reforms to a conclusion . but there are important issues and , in which we disagree . this runs counter to european union , its future independence in respect of north america and a common european defence and security policy , because it involves risks for the relationship with russia and other countries . what we are , however outcome , and we want to make what in preparation for enlargement should be done , not on for another intergovernmental conference postponed indefinitely . i shall be brief and which i earlier have been doing that than me to my first speech three minutes i have not taken earlier . this is very important , and i am very pleased that the commission of an information campaign operates according to the words of commissioner verheugen both comprehensive and decentralised would take . however - and it is my final word , because i want to make this quite clear that i am not a pessimist - well in this respect , i am not at present , to give a clear message in favour of enlargement - to credible , we must remain seriously , we must be understood , one has the support of the people , the people of the candidate countries and also our people , winning . at the moment i see no need to surrounding enlargement on the financial perspective to discuss . from a single i can say today ! this is also the reason why incidentally you also have expressed a wish to join the european union . we will present the various rapporteurs to speak . i have the responsibility for delegated to the report on the request by estonia to join the european union to implement . conservative would i very careful with taxpayers ' money to scuppering . i believe that there would be ignorant of it , with the people of latvia in recent years have carried out . this is not enough , the whole strategy must focus more on the citizens be planned . lithuania has very great potential for a long-term economic growth . in the broadest sense , it was the cooperation of the european union with the russian federation . another point is the neuralgischer public support in and outside the european union . as a result of a careful look amounted direct foreign investment in last year to more than 5 ,45 billion euros . we should not intervene , not even we germans ! slovakia 's democracy is being developed stable , and in this area , we have already seen more . in my speech i will be the six points in the development of the situation in hungary and to systematisieren which , in the light of joining the union which are important . that is why i am glad that this issue in the general report of the honourable member brok on enlargement has been included . this was probably not under any more about to be on the subject of nuclear power , where there is a risk that the lobby of kernkraftgegner the legitimate concerns about nuclear safety and environmental protection for their own ends usurpiert . i would like to thank mr being in favour of setting up a high-level group commended . the report , which also unanimously approved in committee will not concluded that the part of the territory belonged to the legal authorities attached to the copenhagen political criteria fulfilled . this is where the important role the high representative for the javier solana , to which the role of the commission obviously are not prejudiced . the main problem maltese but remains in the fact that the accession process of government and opposition judged differently , and the european union stresses that the accession process continuously components . even the united states and mexico , the level closer together . this is why we in the field of internal market for a sensible , flexible and the challenge appropriate strategy self-destruction . let me at here but also express my respect for the citizens of the countries of central and eastern europe to have a decade ago have had the courage to which strasse to go , and the process of taking shape eventuality . the information society is important for the old akin to the new economy . let us not be given by the percentages of national legislation in umgesetztes community law merely drink berth . the ten new countries of eastern europe have such a rich erbonkel not anywhere else in europe . that also applies to the , subhuman and transport of live animals to the slaughterhouses . now we are in a regulation , which affects all the main acts to assess the health implications for it . in my opinion be extended to the european union picked up and be stated that the european fund for regional development continue to be based on a tight financial distributed amongst the regions and areas can be given . elmar brok is right in his speech by the reminder embarked on everyone here to the beneficiary of enlargement will be , in particular , we on this side of the current external frontier . the binnenschiffverkehr will be important for environmental reasons , because we massengüter off the roads must be given and , if we do not by rail transport can , then we must waterways benefit . even selfishness and not least populism have an influence , and the euro exchange rate has falling results will certainly also be a positive effect on . our message to the candidate countries is : do not by the size of these reports and documents upset . unfortunately , is currently too many parties its ideological federn abgestreift with the result that you too little ideals personify and to materialistisch organization . should it prove necessary , the unrestricted right to acquisition of land and eigenheimen suspend , let us do that . he has already exist , but it will probably by bureaucratic lack of transparency and apparent , but not publicly-expressed resistance of some governments jeopardized . what is in fact the millions of jobs which the maastricht treaty would bring ? while we have here is that contracts restructured to be praying for some people the forthcoming reform . almost all international studies show arising from enlargement to macrofinancial profits towards that . however , the main aim of slovene policy - the early application joining the european union - although a number of non-significant minority of any political grouping called into question . will the union 's enlargement promptly carried out , this would greatly decentralised materialize , contained in the eldr group in its opinion on enlargement formulated . it is also clear that this is the country typical submissive well-ordered anstaltsregime long-term consequences for the health of orphans hooliganism . i ask you to support the corresponding amendments . and even the european politicians , have insufficient insight into the negotiating process . cyprus is almost as a bridge to countries in the area wanting . i wish the negotiators will continue to luck in this important area . the second type of communication is naturally important between our countries and the enlargement countries , in order to get to what the nature of the european union . we cannot afford , even more of impetus from the beginning of the 1990s losing . mr president , firstly , as rapporteur of the socialist group of the report on romania 's rapporteur on her excellent produced input . for the institutions , for the member states , for us all , there is a challenge , but also the fears of our own public grown to demonstrate , once again , the nerve to the aspirations and the visionskraft the founding fathers of europe to be found . unfortunately i have the impression that this process of enlargement despite many fine words and despite hard-working öffnens and schließens numerous chapters of the council incompatible with the necessary political pressing on it . many countries of the union was at times of development with similar problems and can bulgaria advised to help , present-day solving problems . democracy is not just a question of majorities , but more importantly , a question of proper co-decision of minorities . the applicant countries should treatment and their accession can only for its development depend upon . at the same time we should recognize , with as much support country like lithuania , try prodigal boden wettzumachen . so it is in our interest to our legal and freiheitssystem up to romania to be extended , and this certainly at a crucial debate with our public justification . with regard to an issue reigns over there , however , wide agreement , which is enlargement . my group therefore supports the duration of transition periods in environmental matters to a maximum of five years . mr president , we really must be a positive move in the enlargement slip . it goes further than the order of the accession of candidate countries to discuss , partly because it does progress in internal reforms should be judged . i am pleased that this report is so positive and that slovenia , as i was the head of delegation on several occasions overhaul it , and the commissioner has been so many times in this count massively has initiated , to fulfil the criteria . i think that the proposal for worthy of discussion . these forms of violence and trafficking in women are seriously by all means available both in the eu as well as in the candidate countries reprehensible and help combat . finally i would like to take this opportunity to thoughts and the concerns of many others , that it deem necessary , at long last , extensive the issue of europe 's borders and thus the size of its enlargement and the possibility of producing a light on this report by the european parliament to consider . - the minutes of yesterday 's sitting have been distributed . thank you . in this house is justified repeatedly pointed out that in a europe of citizens civil rights in the law of the union enshrines these . i shall now put the request for postponement of the committee on legal affairs and the vote . we know , it looks at the undesirable substances that are concerned , rarely to troublesome toxic substances are involved , but rather of the long term influence , consumer and akkumulierbare substances such as dioxins , aflatoxin and heavy metals such as cadmium , lead and mercury . we are able to sinner cannot currently find it . when these verschneidung permits , it must at least an application of the supervisory tasks , and it must be made public , that these verschneidung exist , because this issue also needs to the public to know and are being debated . one thing must be clarified . the dioxin crisis was the result of criminal acts against the schemes . mr president , i should like to thank the members who spoke before me . it was essential . the limit value for fishmeal differs from , for example , the limit , which is not out of marine organisms engineered products manufactured proposes . it is time for us to the dangers interpretation of the principle of subsidiarity , with which the patronage of our nations by brussels routinely developed , to put an end . i share the rapporteur 's opinion that the measures proposed are justified and the substances listed must be controlled , though this in itself not toxic are , in the conjunction with other substances but heightened values displaying . unfortunately , a lot of überliefertem out of any bauernverstand during the industrial agriculture , where the animals on production units and commodities curbed which have been lost . the new regulations will be the most comprehensive and complex hygieneanforderungen out on numerous directives have been distributed , merged , harmonisation and simplified . the number of people who the ingredients absolutely question is , according to my research relatively small . secondly , overcoming indicates , but rather to farmers , who are the producers of feed materials are and they will be much more partien of ausgangsprodukten demolish them . compensating is needed , although undisputed is that farmers too , a great responsibility for animal welfare costs . on amendment no 18 explicitly urges that water in the definition of feedstuffs schemes . on the basis of the scientific risk assessments will it take the member states suitable measures to set limit values for these substances in animal feed commended . according to the examination of the amendments proposed in this part-session are tabled , i welcome parliament 's support for this proposal . overall , the commission 15 of the 27 amendments condoned . i assume that the time cannot be successful . the commission has promised that she will work , and it has also announced that it is not until tomorrow will be completed . farmers need time elaboration , at least in question and in prozentangaben , as it and to what extent in these compound contain should be . let me finish by thanking the rapporteur , mr graefe zu baringdorf , and also mrs roth-behrendt sincerely for their reports thanking and hope that the council on this issue a constructive attitude and that is how we work together to a transparent system of futtermitteldeklaration parallel . all that we have clearly the tragedy with bse attributable to the turned into a real novel by several areas has developed . pollutants which the health of humans and animals influences , are unacceptable . but let us start with the good . this proposal will mark a number of initiatives , both on the white paper on food safety anchored . thank you , 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 as a member of hungary to join the european union and the progress of negotiations [ com ( 1999 ) 505 - c5-0028 / 2000 - 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 as a member romania to join the european union and the progress of negotiations [ com ( 1999 ) 510 - c5-0033 / 2000 - 1997 / 2171 ( cos ) ] the third and perhaps most assumption is that the council on new institutional agreements reach agreement , which the efficient , effective and democratic functioning of the community for enlargement ensured . for this greater europe should rather these institutions are being planned who took the development of the east promoted , but also room for sovereignties and differences berth . this excellent principle should in fact , within the european union as well . finally , i would like to stress that the enlargement process progressively , in accordance with the anpassungsfortschritten for applicant countries must be carried out . in the current context and in view of voices that are beginning to listen , and that the enlargement of the european union into question , it is important that parliament send a clear political signal for enlargement multiplies . the european union serves since its establishment of juxtaposition of peoples . the criteria of the council in copenhagen in 1993 to democratization and the competitiveness strengths under the guise of ' acquis ' the rule whenever unbridled capitalism . destructive . under these circumstances would be headlong concerning enlargement in increasing the populist and faschistoiden excesses which in many places are signs that lead . we have just on the agenda for this sitting will report on the opportunities for men and women , who again illustrates how to reconcile this with the acquis communautaire in practice it is precisely in this sector is happening . we all agree that poles of kopernikus and johannes-paul ii. access to the european parliament refuse to 1956 budapest in battered hungary or the symbolic tallinn prague , in which people 's democracies once the head of state by a fenstersturz absetzten and the people of jan palach which focuses on the freedom opferte , forcibly niederhielten . the wider europe with more tasks and responsibilities needs new and more financial resources . as an offer to the mature citizen and the pensioners in estonia my greetings and hope that we ensure viel , you a existence within the european union as possible . if latvia to continue making progress and the european union 's institutional bodies and policies adapted was to be able to cope with enlargement , i see no reason why latvia not within the union should be discussed . if lithuania continue making progress and the european union 's institutional bodies and policies adapted was to be able to cope with enlargement , i see no reason why lithuania outside the union should be discussed . also , the environmental sector , with the advent of the ' national fund for environmental protection and applying the polluter pays ' noticeable progress . if the union poland 's door to our common house opens , makes it with regard to this neuankömmling equity - a equity which that country for too long been deprived . i look forward to the imminent accession of the czech republic to the european union . . i welcome the report by mr queiró on the request of hungary to join the european union and treats the bulk of its conclusions encouraged . i hope that bulgaria in europe in the not-too-distant future joins . poos report ( a5-0249 / 2000 ) it is a balanced and fair contribution which the council seriously aware of it . in this context , i hope that negotiations are under un auspices with success , so that the greek and the turkish population group in cyprus together on the benefits of membership with a reunified republic to benefit . i welcome the report by mr poos as a member of the republic of cyprus to join the european union . but we consumers are on stretch at the end of the food chain , so the last sammelbecken for modified and verfälschte foods . our focus in particular to ensuring that food safety at european level and in evident from stable or from the field to the table delivered . precisely because we support the extension genuinely country greater solidarity and equal cooperation between all the member earth stand , we have no intention to with our vote farcical worthwhile . the council inform parliament before the vote in committee , but so quickly that this deliberately further talks with me , and parliament have been avoided . in my report i have not only greater representation and involvement of ngos , greater accountability to parliament , to submit an annual report and debate on this in parliament and the maximum transparency demanded , but i also said that the transfer discrimination recognizing and the memory of the past alive to adhere to it in the fight against prejudice to exploit . there will legitimate interests of employees . the social partners are the main responsibility in terms of the rules of diskriminierungsfragen at work are best placed to workable solutions to work . jenny , coordinator of the access-charter-gruppe and was mine amongst the public hearings on article 13 invited . in practice because directives and action programmes incentives to offer that member states in the fight against discrimination on the same basis as our basis , and would allow the commission , its role as guardian of the treaty estimation , or of societal consideration gathering . although the present legal basis funds for new preparative initiatives releases , could financing them in this category into a mittelreduzierung for other policies lead . this is a proposal for a necessary but insufficient framework directive , we will be able to have their mechanisms to some anwendungszeit to hone . i hope the commission will focus on the basis of this new directive due to the issue of sexual discrimination dealt with . i congratulate the commission and my colleagues who have worked on these reports . i welcome the recommendation of the mann report , weltanschaulichen organisations to allow , possibly as professional plea to the staff conditions to give to this recital referring . the fact that the institutions as soon abandoned the result of the amsterdam treaty were given new powers avail , proves that the european union in terms of equal opportunities continues to play a pioneering role , and for this , commissioner , i would like the european commission is particularly thank . the presence of discriminations many different kinds of our societies confirming the importance of this action programme , on the report by mr cashman is concerned . mr president , on behalf of the bonino list i should like to express our distress at the way the subject of discrimination , racism and xenophobia by this union and member states expression . can the commissioner explain why the commission that aspect ignoring ? the second is for me the problem that ngos , important as it were , there will be asked , whatever their size , nature and its actions concerning implementation to stay . the group of the european liberal , democrat and reform party , all this positive moves , and especially the activities of the european parliament , i also and above all , in particular , for the prevention of discrimination and to the best practices lodged . this is a challenge for us all , because we all people after the first impression evaluated . mr president , if we fight against discrimination and provisions into national law , then we should admit their existence and even the fact that one several of the expressions meanwhile ' legal ' that they have to alltagsbild belong . firstly , the unctad looks to the welthandels- and entwicklungskonferenz by the united nations , 1963 in geneva the principle of positive measures , that is the discrimination erected . the information and awareness raising acquire imparted a fundamental role in this area , they must equivalent preliminary work to be a new mentality , new misconception and behaviour kept in mind , so that this is still in the population wide-spread prejudices forever to sort out and all citizens real equality is guaranteed . so it is now important to with the two under discussion legislative initiatives forwards , too , highlighting some aspects of improved and the financing of the programme budget is increased , where the political importance of the fight against discrimination expresses . in particular , to reach agreement on the principle adequate fine-tuning , with due sweden and ireland played a pioneering role , it will ensure that the employer in europe adjust their jobs , sonderausstattungen acquire and their business as skew that disabled people genuine chance . the article 13 provides the basis for a new objective of the eu , combating discrimination or of inequality between citizens , for reasons to this rule are included . secondly , i would like to say that the commission with this first package unfortunately a serious mistake was made , isolating the reasons for discriminations in an order of precedence einordnet . mr president , discrimination on religious grounds is neither tolerable as any other form of discrimination . a great supporter of secularism is something i am therefore unable to endorse this thought . the noble idea that all citizens the greatest possible freedom to be granted provided you with equal intensity with freedom of the other is compatible , is still some obstacles to that part of factual , part of a legal nature . one of these directives was already in a very short time passes , and i am very hopeful that the others in november during the french presidency will be approved . some are not consistent with other provisions , such as the amendment on the procedure in the committee . i must reject amendment no 38 and the proposed deletion of the list of article 5 , in the allowable cases of inequality on grounds of age are included . you have an important issue as vertragseinhaltung at all . in this programme is the first time joint projects mapped out . it is obvious that the code of conduct is all the more effective , will be more countries are world-wide support . article 7 of the code undertake the member states to prevent arms to permissible endbenutzer shared . mr president , i admit that i am for the times zurücksehne , where the european parliament , but also of the various peace movements and trade union calls for reflection and measures to unremitting reducing production were obtained and it has put the question as to how arms production converted into a civil one might think . given the situation in which the world and our continent today , after the cold war and the collapse of the weapons of mass destruction aufrechterhaltenen balance of horror secured , is this type of behaviour irresponsible . these weapons are almost a symbol for the anarchy in many parts in the world . csfp includes measures to krisenbekämpfung from outside the union , but nothing that as a common defence policy could be described . these are intended to make the export of weapons of governments , which violating human rights , and in crisis or in areas where a rüstungswettlauf is taking place to prevent . the commission , in close cooperation with member states play an active part in drawing up a joint action of the european union to small arms and light weapons participated . the next item is the debate on the commission communication on the european research area . other elements , the introduction of a long-term timescales involved förderformen who half way between the projektförderung and institutional financing is shared by the use of laid down in the treaty futures ' multi-speed europe " , in particular , the union 's participation in national programmes , contained in article 169 of the treaty reimbursed . this hierarchisierenden character if we want to promote it , and depends on the förderform succeeding . you say you dächten of a total shake-up of the framework programme . i believe we need now something that the european research area a structure lends , that is something that goes on the framework programme , with the national employment plans only be built on and we need a strukturierendes element , so we need to introduce methodologies . what consideration with the stoa-referat is concerned , i believe we must work together to do so , since parliament , the centre and the zukunftsforschungsinstitute across the member states are affected . obviously the commission is moving resolutely towards the achievement of a european research area too . it is an entire sections on science and society , people are . there was contacts with the authorities greece , ireland and portugal , for the governments of these countries to the commission 's proposed in the context of the cohesion fund as soon as possible to implement . maybe this lack of a service , which you talked about and the reference in the last commission , which is solely the cohesion fund dedicated to bear some responsibility that they have no more detailed information . my second question is as follows : apart from the cohesion fund , the community support frameworks , the structural funds , the regionalprogramme etc. which countries have definitive plans you tabled and which scheme which country they have already approved ? in 1989 , the commission has presented taken by the flexibility should make . i know the comments of commissioner bolkestein to appreciate and i know there is one of the principles of the treaties is that foreign companies no longer afford allowed as domestic , but if the general rules for fair competition in europe also apply here , in cases disproportionately high taxation , we have the effect see the competition law in this situation could have , though universally valid , that these matters the competence of member states apply . if you fuel savings are to be able to accept this and not by levies by other besteuerungsformen . mr purvis , i wish to say that the issue of natural , regional disadvantages probably a matter for national governments are , however , some of the electorate in those far-flung regions and peripheral . mr president , thank you , commissioner , for your reply . last spring and sommer does the commission a comprehensive review their activities and their staff resources carried out . there are such tasks . they are being increasingly by tourists and merchants exploited , that remarkably often come from europe . the commission believes that all companies will be in a position to take promptly to the final changeover to euro profitability , including the adjusting their computer systems and the software heeded . the theoretical political discussion is no longer on the agenda , we can set the threat of a referendum in general evaded , but perhaps on another occasion . this also applies to rises . only recently , to the french authorities a erinnerungsschreiben sent . on the applicant countries may i inform you that on this subject meetings with them have taken place and interim agreements were concluded . during the frühjahrsaussaat did the commission cases of objections imported seeds of various conventional plant varieties on board , including cotton , the traces of genetically modified seed herself . having myself back with his department kurzgeschlossen have , i am able to inform you that basic safety requirements in relation to computerausstattung for private use in an official or directive on electrical product , the so-called niedrigspannungsrichtlinie and also in the directive on funkanlagen and equipment are laid down . it would , in my opinion affiliate that taking account falsely distinguishes between safety and security in classrooms - or rather the safety of a child , i too hall on computers sits ? perhaps schüttelt he set out by president khatami . aung san suu kyi lives now de facto under house arrest . this is why i am very hesitant , trade starker involve or other measures relating to trade and investment respected . question no 15 by ( h-0769 / 00 ) : it purchased they , for example , wahlkampfveranstaltungen who have visited there . questions nos 16 to 44 will receive written answers . we advocate a consolidated european report which and approved by this house should be publicized . rather than to how we manage the other weapons producing countries of the world can compete , we should instead be to switch to civilian production concentrated . the five permanent members of the security council , who must actually consists of using about our security charged with monitoring , should heed these proposals and as quickly as possible negotiate an agreement which twenty-first century is unfit . the debate today represents a significant step in the reform process , which the commission under mr prodi nearly a year ago was introduced . for me is concentrated on the idea that the commission in the race for producing a proposal within the reformweißbuch fixed time frame has been unable to all the various points shrewd arbitration . so i suggest that , in both the auditor and the internal auditor full annual reports on their work build alleviation . in the van hulten report is the advocated by the commission dividing-line rightly aggravated and a sound approach for the exchange of best practices between the institutions imperatives . that is to be here hopefully not again . if we made in the big institutional issues , then , the committee of wise men 's call for the independence along the line pass . in the past we have very often seen too long in the decision-making processes applicants to disillusionment and at a loss of confidence in the european institutions have produced . i would like to thank the commissioner say that this report is only an intermediate step . it means that it started to build a bridge between the current system of controls and the one we after the reform intend to achieve it . that is the proposal which is available . only if they are capable of being too that sampling , selecting which frequently is monitored , watered down . on simple declarations and we are all aware that this is certainly not an easy thing to do this . i refer of course , that we neither politicians nor as an technologists whatsoever , are capable of tackling the problem alone . fortunately , increases , but the overwhelming majority of children and young people in an environment in which none of these problemmerkmale growth . i agree with the commission president unreservedly agree that such a list which reminiscent of constitution has to be worked out bathroom . it gives me self-evident that the principle of subsidiarity must be strengthened and that the eu from many areas of policy keep , which has functions not transcend borders . information from around the world and all wissensgebieten be within a short space of time joining supplied , and that communicate revolve around the world as on their everyday lives . they have been quickly arrested and avowed vis-à-vis the policemen , ' is indeed strange , in the sets will not be so quickly taken . legislators - and i shall conclude - cannot regulate everything , but they need some of the rights and obligations of each memory . furthermore , i appreciate the remarks to education , training the ability of the verstehens pictures and of making the younger generation , the media critically to consider and will not be anything , sometime , somehow doing . nothing will consider its remaining in the wake of insights harmful effects , as if a report like this without any progress , or at any greater mobility makes or at least not managing to remove the barriers that threaten the ausbildungsmobilität today concerns . in the various countries are different solving problems : it is , for instance , different rules in the fields social security , grants , aufenthalts- and tax law or in the absence of a common recognition of qualifications and praktikumsaufenthalten . it is time that europe 's proper implementation of programmes such as socrates and youth for europe again draws attention to . the experience of the mobility of students and teachers reveal that the real shortages and not primarily in education , but at the social and fiscal and immigration are . as an example of this was the socrates programme listed . it is a clear procedure , a clear control when there are also spot checks , and in particular , is a beratungsstelle , a web-seite being established , where the students their complaints attachment calamities . we therefore wish to include the self-employed research scientists within the scope of the recommendations . yet it is easier said than done . the debate is closed . we appreciate your approach , which is on prototype of president jacques chirac or by foreign minister , joschka fischer orientation . the union must in foreign policy with one voice and a common defence and sicherheitsfähigkeit develop . what we need is a entscheidungsforum to solve the problems which , on both sides of prime importance , as evidenced by migration , the relocation of production factors or energy supply . in the resolution on the reports of the commission , on the afterwards they are to vote on the issue is very closely dealt with . by the commission has prepared indicators will assess the progress made possible . apart from the meeting of ministers and the kolloquium on equality at work if there are two important particularly for equal treatment devoted to make in the area of the council meeting on employment and social affairs ' falling texts are mentioned . the second concerns the principle of non-discrimination , including the prohibition of sexual discrimination . on the reports , i would like to say , the president-in-office has also mentioned - that the important cultural differences , of course one of the great problems in the eu operates . both the reports we are debating here , reflect the wider . we must check that the directive on equality genuinely impact on the legislation will be taken . i believe that this detected in finland procedure established for very many areas can be implemented , and all of this as part of the gleichberechtigungsstrategie the commission , expect much allowed . on behalf of the equal opportunities , french women thanks to the european union 's right of night work garnered . as a french citizen , i such a perspective of the world in heavily alien . despite these observations we will vote for this report , because we are naturally in favour of equal opportunities , but equal opportunities means firstly that everyone into consideration . who mothers free choice is taking their own children without remuneration to educate people to give sooner or later the bill in the form of juvenile and vandalism presented . let me remind you here of our report on splitting the rentenrechte in divorce , that categorising performance in the survivors and the retirement age in the directive of 1979 involved . the polish women were are very grateful that we have made it clear that the representative who was there , not the position of polish woman has reproduced . greater involvement of women at all levels of government and in all walks of life is an essential factor in the deepening of democracy , respect for the achievement and the preservation of peace . finally i should like to refer to the situation of women in the member state which themselves for accession to the european union preparations . the council , not least the men in it , is that in this area immense task to europe in the fight against the frauenhandelsmafia to conduct . stops for good politicians can these slave trade superseded , schulterzuckend disregarded or ignore . the reports and speeches which have been analysed , we can see from which many of us had been clear , namely that the issue of equal opportunities is structural in nature and global strategies for the solution is required , for we women are neither a category one homogeneous social group and neither are we saying collectively . indeed , along with some regret the fact that maria de belém roseira these items ceased bekleidet . two of its people have new sozialrechte , new steuerrechte asylum-seekers . thirdly , they are the basis of a strategy for the european union level , even in the charter of fundamental rights has been of great importance that we will have an overview of the current situation available - but also at national level , as the member states now by means of comparative assessment national targets can set . the joint debate is closed . these amendments need in the new context of the interinstitutional agreement should be understood , and that is why parliament cannot disregard the fact that at the restriction on comitology to exist , as you with the new interinstitutional framework to some extent immaterial have become . i nonetheless believe personally remains that the text adopted by parliament at that time the new realities of the internal market and opening up markets significantly better account bore , as the elements of monitoring and information , that in the not accepted amendments contain goods , greater certainty messengers that the rules are respected and of implementing the same procedure be applied to break-up . if we want to non-member states ' obligations accepted that , the european community as a first be careful to for compliance with its own regulations to ensure that , when a country has the power to products on schmuggelwege onto the market of the community to find out why should it not make the effort to meet us any permissions negotiate ? in this way will the amendment by parliament on the papierlose declaration , that the council has been taken , member states ' customs authorities to be given the highest standards automatisierten verwaltungsinstrumenten equip . but now it is too late , because you have just voted on consent and that the members advocated here . 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 by the commission ' equal opportunities in the european union - in 1997 , 1998 and 1999 ' [ com ( 1998 ) 302 - c5 ­ 0106 / 1999 ) ( com ( 1999 ) 106 - c5-0289 / 2000 ) ( com ( 2000 ) 123 - c5- 0290 / 2000 -1999 / 2109 ( cos ) ] . ( fr ) i do not currently the first time an opinion on the mobility of students and teachers , either . this report is even greater importance to that , as it becomes a at the european union crucial time , that of enlargement , will be presented . discrimination is not by creating more administrations are combated , but only in people 's minds . . ( fr ) i am not in the mann report voted for , with all genuinely necessary striving for equal treatment in employment and occupation must therefore not yet in excess of zeal went so far as to ensure the protection of freedoms and respecting the rule of law and totally forgotten . as a representative of the secularism , the separation of church and state that i was able to approve this out . - the snp welcomes this directive and its objective , the discrimination at work to put an end . if the directive acceptable and feasible to be she should be with literature and wishful thinking congested carried out in a legislative text have no place . uneasy the eplp has , however , on the following areas : it issues such as the implementation altogether , training for certain age groups of workers that different types of schlichtungssystems and the interpretation of the directive on the part of the smes should be in our opinion , be left to the member states . quite rightly makes mr van hulten in the interview from that we will only on a positive agenda can begin , if we problems such as fraud and waste , but also a lack of efficiency and effectiveness of decision-making handle them . the reasons why i voted for the report are primarily with the question of closer relations between the european union and nato and the rapid introduction of a common defence system . the report also the european waffenausfuhr as a solution for future regional conflicts in border areas of europe discussed . however , i cannot agree to that which calls for a common defence policy and a european security and defence policy within nato is connected . . ( el ) the children are the main victims of violence on television . i welcome the results of this study now before us . at community level we will also , in a expertenausschuss with the commission to draw up a memorandum , the general principles for the protection of minors in the media are concerned . dybkjær report ( a5-0198 / 2000 ) . ( el ) interestingly , it is the first time the need to recognize the effectiveness of the annual reports from the commission exerts political initiatives can be assessed . peru mr president , peru experienced at times of uncertainty , and all of us we hope that the current situation through a process will be resolved , in which all civil and political rights be guaranteed , of the strengthen and consolidate the peace and democracy in peru responds to a country which , in the last fifteen years 25 000 deaths intransigence . i give the floor to the stake , reads ' democracy ' . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , the conditions under which last may in peru elections have been conducted , 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 . i therefore welcome the fact that the decision taken some significant items on the situation of women and launches 's warning about how important help you are , if we are dissolve discrimination against women that the taliban-führung preventing . the eu has an important role here . the acknowledgement that none of the member states , it must not happen , as long as the policy of human rights violations and in particular of systematic discrimination against women is continued . i and the fact that the funds from the producing drugs for sale of arms is used , we need to be in the european institutions on board . however , it neighbouring countries in increasing their ability to combat drugs keenly support . i think the time for suited to recall that the european union to compassionate policy towards latin america needs to work out who may could prevent that these countries periodically experiencing crises which have variously occurred . ladies and gentlemen , the commission as the house welcome the release of the spanish jesuitenpaters alejandro matos castro 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 college or university . that is why we are all very pleased that the problem of higher education has at last perhaps a very good way forward to cites . i think this is essentially a good example of all neighbouring countries that on forming not only hate leads to be just as it now as often happens , but that education and as cradle to a peaceful , multi-ethnic society can be used . i should also like that we have found a solution which all parties in parliament were able to support . here i should perhaps take the opportunity to point out that the commission in cooperation with the high commissioner , mr van der stoel , we have been useful hooliganism . with today 's debate we shall not only express our condolences to , first and foremost , we are talking about what has happened . there has been , as we in the future remedy cannot , as of now , the commission and the european parliament , we can help make up a sort of incident not again taken place . in any case , we have come to this joint resolution agreed and support him in this way and urgent debate , and for the reasons i explained earlier , we are against the amendments which are also under urgent procedure tabled . on the amendment on working conditions , the matter has been the subject of a directive , and the amendment is not in any case so informative how the text itself . this is , in the northern and western islands of scotland unacceptable , nor for the explanatory crossing on the north sea on the continent , which i hope in the not-too-distant future is set up . i welcome the fact that the greek government that liberation meantime reinstated yesterday . therefore , the commission following the sinking of the express samina sank right back to the greek government ably by asking you , clarification of the application of existing community law to obtain . i would like to raise the question and i ask you to do in the bureau to investigate whether , under abolishing the friday sittings of fox side even the abolition of thursdays begins . i would like to say that from the european union 's arrangements set in motion , so that we , as soon as the will of the serbian people safeguarded , which means that whenever a by voters kostunicas backed government is formed , the following measures are : firstly , the immediate lifting of sanctions and secondly a wirtschaftshilfepaket in support of the serbian people in putting its economy . at this time on the streets of belgrade may decide whether the democratic change now espouse and whether it peacefully might arise . we condemn all activities which are to be regarded as a provocation , particularly on the holy places in jerusalem is concerned . we must put people - as mr solana has said - with the meeting in zagreb quite symbolic the shake hands . on schockierendsten is that the israeli police and military splittergeschosse have fought to the intrusion into the body in dozens of parts zerbersten , bullets and the international , even in fighting between soldiers , prohibited and now against civilians are used . i believe that europe can and must deal in this direction do , and i reject loud and sustained effort . it must therefore do everything possible to accommodate the schwelenden fire as quickly as possible in check . provocations , as the action of ariel sharon , must omitted . that is still the case and that is why the european union , as has been over recent years , in the middle east cannot act as to take over which you so that the usa alone their fate . we will be the serbian people not our lofty ambitions and moral sacrifice , because it would mean that perhaps thousands of people in serbia and yugoslavia so die cells . finally , i propose , as soon as possible and as soon as a new yugoslavian government is formed , with a delegation from parliament is to travel to work with these new yugoslavian government plans for the creation of a new serbia to us . madam president , ladies and gentlemen , it is clear that we in parliament today may be a historic day experiencing , perhaps the end of the last leg a totalitarian dictatorships in europe . mr president , there is another problem : the german text for the urgency , except perhaps that in the other language versions too happens - except those tabled by the gue group abstained , but none of the resolutions and certainly not the joint text . mr president , i just wanted to our colleagues on the batch of draw attention to the illustrates just how documentation we this week for the vote has taken . if parliament 's council decision amending lodge could , i would also certainly high unemployment and social problems croatian out , resulting from the land mandated schlankheitskur revenue , but in this context , for those amendments no legal basis . this is an opportunity , the same objectives with regard to the eib 's activities should be required . mr president , yesterday evening , we are discussing serbia and the regrouping vollziehenden revolutionary changes spoken . i would therefore urge my colleagues , in particular , the council to call , in the months of negotiations on the budget for next year and for the years on as close to the commission proposal to remain which , in my opinion , the costs in croatia , and in other parts of the balkans , ever ideally commended hooliganism . in 1990 , the democratic elections which are under international judgment fair and free goods . therefore in favour of this financial assistance , yes to this valve , while the vigorous challenge to the european commission , this profoundly european and it will certainly be democratic and lawful governed nation massively supporting it in the number of applicant states to introduce , as i believe that croatia has our full backing deserved . like the rapporteur , i am therefore wondering whether the money really to be made available , particularly as beyond it appears that soon , large flows of money to serbia will have to and the union budget does not increase it . even the delegations of the croat and our parliament has asked the council , the mandate of the eib should be extended . i hope that soon contacts are as well as croatia and the serbian people , that our greatest respectable one , assistance is provided . ( parliament approved the minutes . in this respect , we are calling for the women in the european parliament to take part in this delegation to involve : on tuesday and wednesday we will launch an appeal , we will signatures collecting and the reports for the adoption of the delegation contrary to include , precisely with concerns , between the females bridges peace to propose , in a place where instead violence prevails . as a whole has been debated basques as well spaniards fresh conflicts added ; spaniards and basques have had enough of the current conflict . madam president , you will recall that i during the last part-session at the plight of the british verfechters of democracy james mawdsley , have drawn attention to that of the burmese authorities unlawfully stated . madam president , while i am really is the rule . this technically anmutende report , which cannot be a great political changes to introduce seems , is in fact , extremely important because it crosses indirectly introduces the possibility that genetic engineering in wine-growing apply and therefore genetically-modified products in the wine-growing should be . when we discussed the report not to vote , we will have a delay . the conseil d ' etat has - as you said - that appeal and rejected this vote has been engaged in properly informed . this does , however , such an event which helps colleagues applies , of course the ppe , rather than my political camp in italy 's government . this is why we great commitment to the introduction of a social scoreboards one , as well as for the internal market has been done , clearly measures by time-scales , with zeitlimits . hopefully , secretary , does the council of the expectations of the european parliament inspire , and hopefully they can , at the european council in nice ambitious aims at a european social agenda when agreeing to participate in it down in the coming years can work together . shortly after the informal council of employment and social policy on 8 july in paris was the chairing all the players involved - of course the european parliament , the economic and social committee , the committee on regional and social partners , ngos and the working groups and committees of the council - urged him to their proposals for forward . the debate on the encounters the quantitative and qualitative aspects is inappropriate and , in lisbon was obviously a dual purpose defined : more jobs and höherqualifizierte jobs . mobility must be promoted and also the protection of careers needs . we have to try to further in the system loopholes to specify and also to name and , in any case , on the agenda as well . the open coordination seems to us the right way to guarantee a social europe . the implementation of the lisbon promotes societal goals will require concerted efforts , an action plan for the creation of jobs in the service sector and in particular to the information society . the commission naturally has an important contribution , but the social issues are regionally down and must plenty of delicacy of the specific circumstances are treated . the social dimension served to offset the folgenschwersten effects of economic policy . it would have been better if the commission 's original proposal into leaving out as it were . congratulations commissioner . it is an ambitious agenda and i would also like to remind you , as well laboriously reached in the last parliamentary term in social protection stimulates attendance here . i think it would be clearly , the woman to help her family and working life reconciled . sometimes i feel that , with the concept modernizing often the erosion of the social protection is covered . what are the essential conceptual characteristics ? yet it is difficult to european objectives set , to all the member states alike are valid , as the reality is proving to be quite different . there have been 49 amendments by the committee on women 's rights and equal opportunities presented . in an amendment proposes that annually in this parliament a debate on coupled with the commission to undertake . another point , the new community support for appreciating the need for additional efforts , including , if necessary , the implementation of legislation and equality and combating discrimination . it is in the past perfectly plenty of good ideas and plans to gender equality gemangelt , sadly , however , is applying it often failed . it is not acceptable that their voice of a handful of forderungsprofis in entire planet is taken to do with public money alive correctly . it aims to promote equality between men and women in the civil sector , which enabling women , in the full benefit of human rights can be reached . what i expect that , at last , the males players here commences and ancient gender role and stereotyped fight . we must do thanking her for them to this debate has taken , for your presence throughout this debate was not actually envisaged . competition policy we have our companies the favourable conditions answerable to make it their production and particularly in the future can plan . consumers should have access to a wide range of quality products to attractive prices have , and ultimately that is the reason that we talk in the single act and so on free competition is , because our citizens winners . that is the beihilfenentscheidung or nichtbeihilfenentscheidung in terms of coal . item 16 in the report by mrs riis-jørgensen demands greater certainty in applying the control of mergers and more efficient and more rapid time consideration in the case of anrufungen the courts . in all these cases involve public undertakings in its economic strength is not a complete management , but past or present monopoly thanks . we need increased involvement of citizens in the information about competition policy , and that he recognizes its advantages . they are in favour of the economy and employment in areas supremely important and i hope that this aspect in future stresses , so that these national subsidies for regional development and the regional economy , such as transport aid , weitergezahlt them . this communication contains three accurate messages . just as warmly thank mr evans for his excellent report relating to community rules on state aid to the steel industry and related to respect the commission report on state aid in the european union . the members mrs palacio and mr karas and other members who discussed these issues are , i would like to say that your concern in the regulation broadly taken into account . otherwise we would ourselves in our efforts to promote competition and consumer interests a great service . the debate is closed . with this system of financing is article 119 of the treaty implemented , which in the third stage of economic and monetary union simply needs to be the single currency acceding member states . mr president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , i am thankful that we are still on the proposal for a council directive amending directive 68 / 193 / eec on the marketing of material from vines have been discussing , and i hope tomorrow , at a favourable vote . some speakers on 5 july , the calling of beaune its concern regarding the introduction of gmos in their business expressed . the report contains provisions encourage further the cause of vielseitigem vegetativen propagating material , as you best-case gesundheitsgarantien offering regarding , for the effective support for restructuring the weinbaus within the community , the key element of the new com in wine , is urgently required . it has to loud and clear about that things are in no way has required , the rule that directive by references to the change in observes directive 90 / 220 fully to plug that unless you want the manipulation of weinreben everything in our power to push forward . 35 to nos 40 will be able to accept that aim to the security and managementerfordernisse according to directive 90 / 220 relentless to transfer . i would like to point out that parliament was not called , as such to respond . madam president , i refer to paragraph 14 of the protocol to the request for waiver of parliamentary immunity of mr pacheco pereira . at the qualified majority , i wish to highlight . at the weighting of votes are also the two options are still on the table : the straightforward weighting of votes , for which there is a hauchdünne majority coming , or double majority , but on the basis of various formulae such as double simple or neugewichtete majority or perhaps a rather marked demographic network ' . furthermore , the european council regardless of bedarfsbewertung and coordination of economic and financial assistance to the federal republic of yugoslavia , that the european commission and the world bank jointly decided to be transferred to the federal republic of yugoslavia initial emergency humanitarian aid amounting to eur 200 million to be granted . when i say spontaneously and bluntly my opinion is , then we could say : how sensitive this matters , the composition of the commission and the voting procedures - may be , as the success or failure of nice will not be judged on . positively too was that the leaders of the charter of fundamental rights permission gave , but i should also like to remind you , mr president-in-office , why is this assent possible ? let the spirit of the nice not by verdruss situations , and it is for the remaining 50 days of primary importance that the negotiations on a political level to put forward . in this respect , i would also like to honourable members of the european people 's party abhor - and i would ask mr poettering that he was listening - as , for which we in parliament unfold , and we must also outside spectrum . after all that we have the results of the heads of government in biarritz concerning the most complex matters of treaty reform ashamed that the charter will probably the most trophäe at nice edge . the council would do the people of europe expect correspond to it wide consultation of the people , the national parliaments launched so that a charter to get that actually meet the needs are . therefore , any called upon for the sources of our union back to basics , to have the courage to mr giscard d ' estaing and mr schmidt rashly in that they 1976 and 1979 on the election of the european parliament in general and direct elections choice and making a decision on that we 2009 at last a president of the european union : the commission president , eventuality . in this respect , i would like to respond to what mr poettering on the gulfs between large and small countries has said . let me briefly mention the issues of external trade policy coordination , which is a very serious matter . this is certainly something valuable , that of the members of the european council has been highlighted . a second very positive aspect is the adoption of the charter as a whole . having said this , i believe that on this fundamental question for the future of the european union and for their decision-making in biarritz plus appear to be . i hope that we will be able , on that score persuading to progress , and here in nice to be applied . i have two specific examples : the right to work is the right to work thriller , and a number of in the revised social charter by the council of europe 's rights are not in the charter transposed . as for the talks indicating that the throughout europe , including biarritz , have been held , want the larger member states the smaller partly to a reform of the european union insistence that which larger member states direction taken and their desires responds . the discontent on both sides are the expression of a negotiator acting on a reasonable compromise hinbewegen . the governance of europe has no clear visions formulated . a commission which , in perimeter of representation of each member state is structured , testifies to little vision . in such a centralistic europe had the smaller countries less influence than the smaller states in zweikammernsystem of us . in the wake of the sharm-el-sheikh where everyone involved and to deal tried to bring about the strength to put a stop and dialogue between barak and president arafat again to set in motion , we have to say how difficult it is , though it to the appearance immunisation , as if the violence bezwungen them . bad whistle-blowers are clearly barón crespo persuade , things about italy and my party , to express the are untrue . the important thing is a step towards european energy tax , which thus far by the unanimity principle was blocked . we should not be the case with that in the small states fear of being , one could at direktoratslösungen dealings . in my view , the convention has produced an excellent piece of work , and i am also proud to me that body was allowed to sit on . as regards the second hypothesis that the question arises of how intervals the principle of focusing on large and small countries completely equal rotation should be applied . the extension of qualified majority voting , together with co-decision with important subjects , the maintenance of article 250 in its present form , the place and the commission 's role in the intensified cooperation and not just for the first pillar - these are some proposals by which we immediately cannot assess whether ultimate success or failure upon . mr president , first i would jacques , jacques delors , altiero spinelli and fernand herman thanking and all of vaclav havel up to carlo ciampi , of joschka fischer up to jacques chirac , by michel barnier pierre moscovici , to which chris patten to costa simitis , without florence and the large number of members present forgetting that ever since 1999 again for the great movement towards a european constitution has been campaigning . we ought to commercial europe not so much criticism - that tells them a socialist , because there is increasing wealth for all craft . let us at least on this objective achieve , and because we do this , we shall have to say , as is to be achieved . i am pleased to see that the recently at the igc proposals presented in fact wholly or partly with the views expressed by my concur . mr president , commissioner , rapporteurs , ladies and gentlemen , you had hoped that this morning to discuss the issues takes place on which your house found it necessary to have the last april opinion issued to the intergovernmental conference to add . this is why i believe it despite the respect for the existing constitutional framework be difficult , as i frankly believe , that more than the governed by deliver an opinion from parliament in the initiation of such cooperation . as you know , this presupposes presuppose that we establish political decisions which are of far more far-reaching , than the three which i have just outlined requirements . and i myself have stressed that the method used to the charter to be able to erwägende . nevertheless , i understand that , as well as grammatical point behind her question a constant concern totally . for this reason too i would like to form and content thanking her initiative . the introduction of enhanced cooperation should not to create new boards in addition to the existing institutions of the union . it is time that contracts to be improved . this general consensus of europe contravention of the european council 's refusal to the charter of fundamental rights of the european into the treaty to include them enforceable and to make the citizens of their rights are violated , access to the european court of justice should be opened . otherwise , i think , is a europe of citizens , not to have one . paragraph 8 . the constitution is , i quote : " the questions laissées ouvertes ' rules . what is to have changed since then , is to have me to make any reluctance . secondly , it is a lack tasks , the questions sidelined instils out for the future of europe and the interests of citizens are of particular importance . minister , the transmission reportedly issued , the russian orthodox church on the eve of bolschewistischen revolution , a rendezvous that for the world as fatal consequences should have , in long debates on the formulation of roben to fastenzeit . therefore , closer cooperation and the guarantees which the rapporteur has outlined . you must all be open to the spirit of the treaties and must respect the acquis communautaire cannot unlawful . on one point though , i would like to say that it does not seem right to demand auspices , or in direction to do , that in all member states compulsory referendum to have the amendments to decide . we have a very thorough debate on the two issues which have are different in character , but there is one point on hydrocarbons . we are prepared to work towards this , there during the conference in november a vote concoctions are and acceptance which during the french presidency will take place . ( parliament adopted the resolution ) what does " the introduction of the existence of a part-time working for older employees ' for more than a threat of many countries have too high retirement age . as you know dining pensioners as well as the marmelade like children . i have pensioners who spin on the pensioners ' party in the european parliament dispatched to have asked whether they like gm drink wine break-up . furthermore continue in exceptional cases standardvermehrungsgut could be marketed , if the need not through other categories we can cover . i ask you , therefore , mr president , portray the varying labour costs then not even a restriction of competition in the european union 's goal ? it could not vote against them , which i did . despite the increased liberalisation in the european union is state aid still a constructive role in achieving of social and economic progress on this . on the environment , the safety of public service and to guarantee equal pay for residents weak regions can be indispensable this aid . we are at the expense carefully that the eu after the consolidating its control over the hopeful state aid and the less extensive aid under the pretext ins target will take , for competition between small and medium-sized enterprises strive to do . section vi - economic and social committee if we look at the fälligkeitspläne implementation of the budget for the heading 2 , 3 , 4 and 7 of , we see that only an average 99.8 % of all obligations on payments covered . three years ago we use our employment strategy , began by encouraging smes halfen , chancenkapital to obtain . parliament wants that two ways to do so . only then will the european institutions and its mandate justly . i should like to take this opportunity to at the vice-president responsible for budgets , mr gerhard schmid , for their constructive cooperation collaborated . we want the commission 's ability to work receives , but we cannot allow them least at the european parliament 's demands as part of the budgetary authority will be heard . this means that the 2001 provides recent whole-year annual budget , and that is also the background to the assessment of the commission 's proposal and of the proposal which we in parliament are put forward . we are also a revision of the administrative expenditure . since 1985 - indeed , since eighty-five - tries to parliament 's committee on budgets to ensure that , in the process of the european parliament 's budgetary consequences of the resolutions adopted by the plenary ignore them . i shall conclude , mr president , by congratulating the other institutions for the care danke , addressing the joint declaration on their way of proceeding teach did . they are today discussing a budget to determine the at first reading by the council has been amended . on the structural measures , for example , the proposed budget compared to the 2000 budget scarcely changed at all . the council 's attitude towards revising the financial perspectives are strictly factual . if you take those three different figures treats , you can see that there are significant differences which are also mono-ethnic quantitatively , of course , the content . here i must point out that it vis--vis the comitology procedure after lengthy debate last year a new decision by the council on the subsidies , and i have little hope that we re-open this debate there . in the financial perspective in berlin for the period up until 2006 were on the meda programme 8.1 billion euros earmarked . i would therefore like to council and budgets in this parliament to tell their foreign policy reflections and in foreign policy pause for thought and not just haushaltspolitisch . the second is that aid to victims of human rights violations , irradiation in specialist organisations need . is there at the time pending a compromise solution emerged , that the important work of the emac-ausschusses supports , can we still mercy . otherwise , we consider the position of our committee openly . we only have the television awarded and at the problems in the middle east to be considered in order to every day draws attention to them . i therefore hope that we in the vote tomorrow will still on the necessary majority for the monitoring centre in dublin foodstuffs ! mr president , i would like , on behalf of the committee on agriculture and rural development several points , firstly on rural development . we have to approve indikativer funds totalling eur 2 million for an information campaign on the cfp asks . the commission must have strong arguments negotiate , at a reasonable agreement with morocco to achieve and what the council and the governments concerned is to that negotiation political impetus . if we look at the 2001 budget today , this is 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 the citizens is open to ride audible , is to take on the ombudsman to turn or petitions to parliament to be addressed . firstly , parliament budget . on the great surprise of many members of my delegation we adopted at the beginning of september unanimously approved a kernstrategie . the 400 amendments , which by some members were put forward were - were so for many of us in the committee on budgets rather surprising . it is difficult . what about new posts that verwaltungsproblem can be resolved , reappear in both the commission nor the council antiquierte and intricate methods of management of many programmes are being applied . this house has in recent years consistently demonstrated the express call rigour to base its work situations . it is not acceptable for people over the years very very loose on commitments speaks and she repeated zusagt , but then , when it comes to pay , is to say that we will be going too far , as we now need a little zurückschneiden ! if we were very few million to the lines aim - much more cannot be - then we think there speckseite making and if the people they actually need to draw your attention again loop . the 2001 budget rank as the budget last year was almost no lösbaren conflicts , both printing the consolidation and austerity , as is now in the interinstitutional agreement has been approved , funding the enlargement of putting on the acute borrowing for the stability pact for the balkans . calls for better conduct include more staff . the vote on this in its original form was the starting point for altering the situation may be , but he is on the committee on budgets rejected by a majority . unfortunately it is for quite a few examples : from the privileged treatment of association with federalist ambition or of many ngos have very dubious modus operandi and views on the financing of european parties by the for the prince programme vergeudeten sums , with which the european citizens of the benefits of the euro persuaded to be , and it will lose confidence in endures , the europeans , our danish colleagues to the leaders of the european central bank broadly share . finally , mr heaton-harris in its amendments rightly on the one-sidedness of numerous european programmes explode , where citizens with a propagandastory about european integration traktiert which claim to be paid by the citizens themselves . in addition to our administrative systems modernising . we must also set an example . a good example of the latter is the meda programme for the basin of the mediterranean , a geographical area of major strategic importance . if certain about necessary reductions or the rout of appropriations under heading 4 , refer to certain priority issues cannot be financed , they do not forget that parliament has set priorities . this is what we in the committee vote quite clearly . this figure is needed , therefore , clarification . thank you , mr wynn . it simply means the existence of intrinsic elements of flexibility , at a given area to progress , and that some are unable or wish , and one for the eu countries are concerned , including in the applicant countries . in my view , austria no need to focus on the outcome lamenting , quite the opposite . this would allow the recommendations of the regional organisations and experience from the neighbouring countries certainly make a valuable contribution . in 1984 owned 0.2 % of landowners in colombia 32 % of land . it is not for the council to this or that aspect of this highly sensitive and painful issue commenting on . we could also be doing so start a debate on issues which , once again , were very difficult . question no 10 by ( h-0722 / 00 ) : i shall , therefore beware , a definitive answer on this difficult problem to be . we only have the feeling , and your answer is that in some way to confirm that the presidency it when we discussed this issue in question consistency dearth of this issue . this is why the emergence of a tobin tax would not be zero . i forgive you too , but we must follow the rules of procedure . the reason why we are on the right so quiet , has been one lies in that we those issues it ever have settled , and we believe that we have the same things have not discussed on several occasions and our valuable waste time . furthermore , as a transition towards a adopting this text for the prevention of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies in june 2000 , a decision to screening out risk material , with regard to these diseases have been introduced , so that any further spread of disease preventing and for the consumer the highest possible level of health protection should be guaranteed . i have no other information than the one i have just described . we are monitoring the work of the commission and the council on erika i and are well informed about this . but when it meeresstraße , in terms of the two countries and also throughout the european union is known as a demanding meeresstraße that are of great vessels using it , just a few hours saving , but there is a danger that old rostkähne somewhere aground run and a disaster cause , i would have and would have above all the inhabitants of corsica and of sardinien wondering whether it is possible and if you intend to passage through the streets of bonifacio for these large ships , that container simply banning ? that is why we should in fact the commission 's proposals for the reform of personnel policy support . in the budget for serbia are travelling to kosovo fresh money needs . in conclusion , may i express the hope that we in the budget add eur 50 million abzweigen may , to the peace agreement israel-plo to finance . this is why we in parliament new measures that are not so much to seeking other sources of finance , of which we already know they under existing conditions cannot be found , but to laying down new interinstitutional commitments aims , by the quality of expenditure improved and proposes that not one euro being wasted . remember that in european politics than any other area the temperate options might not be more th majority form . it is probably the verdunkelung because of enlightenment and , at the demonstrating position with regard to the operation of activity-based budgeting disappointed me greatly . in addition , leads the way of doing this , tolerating the budget as a political instrument to realize where the distribution of expenditure clear political priorities reflect . we should take this opportunity to seek a solution which several years holds to give us this debate about the financing the reconstruction of the balkans next and not following year again lead to . anyone participating in the development of sustainable agriculture is concerned , will know that the hauptvorstoß of recent agreed in berlin reform is to further steady transition from price support for products of direct income support for farmers to change . a budget is always more than a uninspiring zahlenreihe . moreover , it is also immoral that expenditure on the common agricultural policy , for the meda programme to the socially excluded to cut back to make funds available for the financing of the european union 's commitments in kosovo and in yugoslavia safeguarded . quite simply , in serbia are people in this winter neither frieren still go hungry . secondly , i wish to express my concern that different jugendparlamente in the socrates programme started . for the benefit of the council should also be made clear that the council is also our responsibility for the poor implementation of some außenprogramme . we need now is stable solution to this aid and , even more so for the time necessary planning for the whole western balkans . i think that the majority would be ready to such a sum provided to accept that the money is used properly . i share the concerns and views of the rapporteur , mrs rühle , addressing this afternoon with regard to the chapters researching and social action describing . two weeks ago we had a joint parliamentary assembly of the acp a.m . at the same time , i shall do we want , in funds for research and information budgetary resources are used to produktionsalternativen for current growers to look . i strongly stick to the european union , with northern ireland is concerned , the most direct and positive influence immunisation which one might imagine . under this system is compliance with rules and procedures by an independent authority and in the last instance through the courts secured . so we will be the first time a codecision procedure at first reading finalise it , and this at a very complex and steeped in technical difficulties behafteten text in an area which so far as the protection of privacy is particularly sensitive . it is a very positive that they must do not have been brought together . is e.g. aware that in the schengen system over 10 million data records on almost 1.5 million people is held that with regard to europol , whose powers constantly expanded , the information from the member police authorities of the 15 member states centrally zusammenlaufen , but only under the control of a government which has neither the competence nor has the means at its disposal to really make another purpose . that said , i use the presence of commissioner to emphasise the fact that people in my opinion , not only for the protection of citizens in the new technologies must take care , but also for the use of these technologies for the purposes of better quality of the citizens of europe to intervene and interaktiv in the european institutions to communicate . in amendments nos 1 , 2 , 4 and 10 , 12 % to 40 , 42 to 54 , 57 and 58 and 60 to 64 , the council text on those points on which the commission can accept . it goes without saying that its opinions on the legislative proposals relating to data protection help significantly , if they are an important contribution to legislative debate between the institutions to do . so recognised by the treaty acknowledging that the ultra-peripheral regions a severe economic and social situation in which , in particular disadvantages harder to be weakened by the lasting situation and their interaction with the development of these regions severely compromised . in that way , the strategy on a high level of employment for promoting economic and social progress environments . so i would like to express my congratulations to mrs sudre . we await with interest the normative enhancement of the commission proposals , so that the particulars under article 299 ( 2 ) of the treaty of amsterdam soon can be considered . for many europeans have some ultra-peripheral but one touristisches objective a map . our unemployment rates are at the top of the union . i am pleased that the committee which i have tabled amendments accepted by a large majority . i believe it is particularly important for the outermost regions in the pan-european transport , energy and telecommunications networks are included . the unanimous approval of the by our colleague margie sudre report presented by the committee on regional policy is confirmation of fidelity ep one of its main obligations . we must not on the whole situation discuss and believe that , with the meet these satisfactory ; in fact , idyllischen situation - if we do times as cite want - no longer be necessary to be further measures to deal with these three areas , especially the outermost regions , we are debating today , to take . this article gives us - not in a position to do everything possible , but it does , the action to strengthen and - i think this is necessary , to extend and improve . in order to prepare the necessary proposals the commission is of course in the member states and the regions concerned together . the difficulty of regions wise , we are well aware that a lasting up , and therefore i believe that it depending on their actual level of development permanently on the support of regional policy and of specific measures need them . during the year 2001 might pick such a meeting will be taken if we as the implementation of the last march out programme a bit further attendance here . the presidency has decided that this matter is over , and i accept this without hesitation . in my view that parliament should closest to the current rules , because often do - as another speaker has already said , that is not the appliances which does not work . it is individual meps who have forgotten to vote , and to take the vote will readjust could , then we would never be finish up . i am in fact , what i osce . ultimately , commissioner , it is , quite apart from the bureau , imperative that the services of the commission in cooperation and in consultation with member states arrangements homogener and effective controls across the food chain and build upon the network of lebensmittellabors within the european union manifold and in coordination with the commission is actively . as , in the research cannot be duplications may turn out to petty national forschungsinstituten and the eu-forschungszentren be cooperation . today we are discussing a white paper , and we subjects berth should be , some key principles established . these procedures have been improved and revised , and we have in the uk an agency for legensmittelstandards set up . finally , to have a number of new amendments support , as amendments nos 11 and 13 and 7 to 9th relating to amendment no 14 calls for a vote without fraktionszwang . against this background , i should like to say firstly that food safety can only be guaranteed , taking strict official inspections , and these are only existing as effectively as the weakest link in the chain . we are discussing an issue on which there are clearly proves , as superficial and inhaltslos our debate on the political union of europe . we therefore entrust the european food safety authority solely with the scientific tests in partnership with the national authorities . it is important . most lebensmittelbedingten diseases , of which europe today is concerned , re-emerged first on the american continent to . moreover , the conditions for access to the authority is intended to be effective and rapid action is guaranteed . we should also point out , as other speakers have done , in particular , mr whitehead , mrs gebhardt , that the white paper is more than any new regulation of the union . mr president , i am extremely today joy and gratitude , both for the commission , which working towards a better food safety has begun , and also to mr bowis and the entire committee on the environment . i regard as particularly important amendment no 17 , in which the involvement of consumer organizations calling for . another point is the complexes review of legislation on the labelling of foodstuffs either in the wholesale and for the retail trade , which the consumer with regard to the traceability of products and their ingredients categorising properly informed and to identify any responsibilities at risk and crises possible . new legislation is in my view , not the right response to existing rules are not respected . when we vote in the committee on the environment , we succeeded in a certain balance recreating recognizing that the scope to include the ernährungsprobleme amplified and some important references to the role of smes to maintain a different eating habits have incorporated . mr president , i should like to join other colleagues in thanking the rapporteur , mr bowis , for his very constructive and logical approach to this problem compliments . mr president , the fact that the white paper on food safety itself no legal force , suffer double meaning which he certainly merit , absolutely refuse . the rapporteur and plenty of our committee , including myself , have to focus on the food authority attached to what is really rather regrettable . on the independence and integrity of the authority is the position of european consumers best served . during the process i have often thought that we in the selection of rapporteur a happy hand have experienced . mr president , i want to mr bowis , congratulations on his laudable attempt to express any opinion in his report to be included , and i would like him , in particular , to thank for his referring back to the broader concept of diet has accepted . finally , the policy not shirk its responsibilities . the most important task is , however , that this body to respect riddled with scientific committees which public confidence and the willingness of the governments of member states buys up by its decisions to be accepted . as i see a food authority for the future . we have the world health organisation in geneva . i verschweige nor that i am of the publication of the white paper on the authority have made . we must , therefore , to ensure that the european union has the highest lebensmittelsicherheitsstandards decreed , it must , within this at the unanimous approval stoßenden approach and the economic consequences for those who are analysed . the role of the authority encompasses then : independent scientific research and advice , independent inspections and an early warning system , but certainly coordination to restore confidence . i would like to take this opportunity to speakers who have discrete solution with regard to the promotion of local specialities and traditional products exist , requested an assurance that this issue in the hygiene requirements into consideration . you will allow the commission facilitate , a balanced proposal which makes the position of parliament and the many players in terms of food safety widest consideration . our parliament is not dealing first raised at the issue anti-personnel mines , but this problem was u. among others politically , at the origin of the signing of the ottawa convention . i repeat my rejection of amendments nos 10 , 19 , which is due to the coherence of the budget , and to call for amendment no 29 a split vote on the various parts to the wording of the whole text , which in my opinion , in particular misinterpretations are suffering , to improve . and this is where the first is : the countries which have not signed , up to the european union , in particular , the commission , to sign the ottawa convention will be asked . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , we all know about the consequences which antipersonnel mines have , though in individual cases frequently billion-dollar military reasons , . parliament has expressed its 1996 first on the agenda hauled ; it is a horizontal line and a proper legal basis asking that with the single platform for the panoply of our actions in this important area to be created . but i do not deny that the thoroughness of europe with other countries by the fact somewhat restricts that some member states are still problems with regard to sign and ratify the convention there . the effectiveness demining operations is greatest . but the individually tailored to the special circumstances of each state tailored organization . the house is aware that there already too many , . as you know , we want with our proposals on reform of external aid from the expensive verification of individual projects abandonment and work in the discussion with member states instead on general strategies and programmes concentrated . many ngos have been set up tackling this problem minds . we must , however , four years after the first un conference on the issue of landmines in geneva and more than a year after the introduction of the ottawa convention noticed that many countries , thousands of people , mostly in the poorest regions of the world , are still in a frightening picture of the risk of anti-personnel landmines and munitions and munitions which are not explode , are victims . the commission , the quality of their programmes improve and accelerate their implementation . if you accept these amendments again very careful about , in my opinion they will be to say , however , some of the honourable member mentions requests campaigns , transparency and access for ngos to the appropriations and things that are currently quite a operate properly , efficient and could be improved . mrs bonino and mr patten have also right in your view that the parliament and council for the management leave us . i heard mr patten on this point very attentively to insofar as it appears to have the feeling is that there should be even more involved . mr president , our group will also work for many years now for the spectre of in this area necessary demands and actions , the produktionsstopp at the destruction of minenbestände , the attitude of the market , the vacating the mines up to the rehabilitation of victims and public awareness . it is then up to the states that the process at international level to promote . the mines are of course a major obstacle to the recovery of those countries , and also for the return of refugees are concerned . at the current rate of vacating we would , as someone was said earlier - far more than 100 years need to make the world of the treaty on cleanse . the third area i see concrete measures which we propose to investigate and comprehend it . every child , which we bosnia , africa and elsewhere in the minentod or monstrous injury preserved , is an effort to us all value . it must indeed put pressure on those countries where there have not signed , such as finland , or have not yet ratified the convention , such as greece . ladies and gentlemen , look at finland ! lastly , let us hope that in the context of the future tasks of the common european forces professionals be trained , especially local people , something which is because that mines are disappearing . and they underline nor that of the list of the most affected countries especially developing countries are . parliament 's demands could hardly more clearly in breach of the lisbon objectives are . the rapporteur , mrs van lancker , is that parliament modifications of the commission 's proposal decides , particularly through the endow of different areas where legislation is apposite and through the establishment of certain rights at european level . apparently , the luxembourg approach to employment policy is , on social security systems and social exclusion be extended . the superpowers germany , france and great britain and to some extent by italy are all agreed that they small- eastern and southern european countries that the european union want to join their domination subjecting them . we find it rather for legal reasons for missed out on it already in article 6 teu transferable to include , for them in the convention , its structure under - not formally decided was published and therefore no legal holds . accepting new text into the treaties could lead to legal uncertainty . the fact is that there is the rapporteur for the mouthpiece of levelled at latter-day new theory of the so-called dual legitimacy of the european union , namely the clarity of the european parliament represent people and the eu council countries represented . the swedish and danish social democrats today voted against the report by oliver duhamel on the constitutionalisation of the treaties voted . we must do this , the european union towards a constitution evolve , that the charter of fundamental rights encompasses . a constitution would only make sense if it 's democratic framework for a genuine european federation , a form of united states of europe , trigger value . he said that he is in line with a large part of the political class on the realised that our relationship with other countries t through an international treaty regulated intelligence gathering . . i welcome the report by mr duhamel than interesting and positive contribution to the concept of constitutionalisation of the treaties . we believe that a revamping and simplification of the treaties make it easier for people were to fall outside the scope of the eu and its borders , and the procedures to perform this responsibility clearly identified . by the treaty of amsterdam in 1997 was europe an intergovernmental supersyndikat . the edd group will vote against the report by mr gil-robles gil-delgado on closer cooperation . it is indeed the concept of the union , too monolithischen itself in any form of cooperation within a ' single institutional framework ' unfolding and towards achieving a super-state tend to be . it is a general slowing down to it , by certain member states through the development of closer cooperation a more rapid way possible . the structures of the single market work since the early 1990s very successful . . ( nl ) the cooperation at european level , for the resolving cross-border problems usefully . these regions could as privileged versuchsstation for sustainable development directions . the technocrats and the european legislator wanted , for example , the dues ' octroi de mer ' to be abolished harms our citizens in the overseas territories with resources oversupply and , above all , our craftsmen requirements . france has , however , departments in the indian ocean and in the caribbean . its independence is a prerequisite of its credibility . our vote is therefore to clarify the role and the composition of a european authority contributed , but it also our demands on their funding and its independence specified . secondly , the european agency be totally independent . we need the kind of agricultural and agroindustriellen practices , the problem of nahrungsgüterimporte , composition of the ingredients in animal feed , the maxima for dioxins and for pesticide residues which additives in food and other non-food and food safety prioritise . we have voted in favour of amendment no 15 , because we are defending the heritage of europe in terms of production drained dear . in virtually no category of expenditure ceasing us a margin . as we would now also 50 % in the budget line and 50 % in reserve aim . the question is : what are the two are incompatible . report ( a5-0300 / 2000 ) by mrs haug , on behalf of the committee on budgets on the draft general budget of the european union on the budget 2001 - section iii - commission ( c5-0300 / 2000 - 1999 / 2190 ( bud ) ) madam president , my name appears among several amendments to this report . ( parliament adopted the resolution ) the real astonishment this budget is concerning external assistance , where selfishness and miserliness prevail . as a result of a use the flexibility instrument can appropriations released . . ( el ) i voted against the haug report and for my group 's proposal that the overall budget 2001 to reject any reservations . we bear in mind in particular of the new pilot project , which hopes information measures to combat paedophilia are financed . not least , this indicates that scant concern for the eu project , even under the politically active citizens . in this way traps 20 to 30 % of the markets , the private competing with . since this will have been no report sets out that i have voted against the report . if we look at what unacceptably low national thresholds which aid dezimieren , in connection with the proposed reduction of rücknahmemengen at 5 % of zitrusfrüchten , on 8.5 % of apples and pears and about 10 % for the rest , fruit and vegetable varieties , it is clear that enormous amounts of verarbeitungserzeugnissen for fruit and vegetables no longer be sold could , if prices as a whole shrink , i fruits , in the fields and in the flax processing companies verrotten tonight and that farmers will force , their pflanzungen to grub up . i voted for this report , which represents the expectations of the portuguese organizations for fruit and gemüsesektors corresponds to the radical reform of the com in fruit and vegetables , requested when you think that these for national interests profoundly damaging . report johan van hecke ( a5-0296 / 2000 ) the root of evil is that everything , even the quality of the environment and the climate , capitalist exploitation of productive resources and the superprofiten is sacrificed . the basis of kyoto was that the rich countries ' aircraft themselves be pure , and should , however , some limited , have the opportunity to their help in some countries which have been achieved emission reductions downstream on its own ergebnisliste to achieved . . ( fr ) combating the greenhouse effect is a major challenge for the industrialised countries and an obligation in particular for the peoples of the developing world are the consequences of climate change already pay with their lives for . the way of life is that , with these risks and insecurities appropriate way . even the efforts which suspected endokrin effective effluent exact to investigating , are ­ possibly through a legal framework ­ follow-up and strengthened . consumers and smes bring peace to introduce the euro a single market insufficient profit . banks , because so far by the member states to cross-border payments of eur 12 500 to zahlungsbilanzstatistischen used for central bank to respond . sustaining needless to say that apply to them the same stringent requirements in terms of safety and money-laundering . we are actually situations where überweisungsgebühren on cross-border credit transfers , when the euro have raised , and not just a small amount of money . the european central bank could help and to do with the implementation of the single european datenformats in payment transactions and supporting the implementation of a single european bankleitzahl at international iban-systems . for the consumer 's accepting euros , is of crucial importance . madam president , mrs peijs ' report on the massenzahlungsverkehr within the internal market anticipates the long-standing demand of the european parliament concerning the high cost of trans-frontier money transfers in the union reverting to . the peijs report shows this recital d of the resolution itself noting , where it says that the high charges for cross-border payments ' consumer confidence in the euro rocked ' . so there is much to do , however methods and means of politicians , all we can do that , in this area slower than our scope in matters of payments in the internal market . the euro-markt will continue as binnenraum encountered , and the people cannot understand that in this area , in the exchange rate risks being lost and the electronic payment systems with internet-banking increasingly would of course , a transfer from munich to salzburg considerably more than was a transfer from munich to kiel . in achieving this objective is , and it for many years have to work . at that point we will continue after the shorter term of winding up of cross-border payments , as in the report by mrs peijs gedrungen going to speak . the debate is closed . the right policy is probably the fact that a pragmatic and kmu-nahen concept which should take priority which the small business at the heart of the instruments power , and not a proposal which on the pretext that thinly avoid wanting to serve only dignity , accurate statistics to produce that specifically nowhere take going . but specifically i have three comments on this programme . it is worth pointing out that the first action programme in this field 1983 amendment - in other words 17 years ago . i also have always been able to raising this on the basis of sound and pragmatic policy should be . i would be a real outposts of economic and innovation , particularly those in the front line and the risks involved in these areas straight face . finally , we also need the results of the kolloquiums ' governance ' , academia and it last week in brussels under the auspices of the institute for technological zukunftsforschung at seville took place , and the folgearbeiten on this kolloquium reflect , because there are many points of contact with our current issue . the rapporteur lists various priorities of putting the business environment in europe to be reformed . that is fine for europe , for technically correct , competently and soon we can help . mr president , i should like to add the words of thanks for the excellent report by our fellow member montfort has . importantly , measure well , a situation can be avoided , in which people constantly at the expense of others fail . this is unfair , and i therefore support this report . this is also what guide the charter for small enterprises . the programme is designed to prevent this information about the networks will be provided . the primary aim of this plan is evidently the control of immigration in the countries of the european union and the readmission of european unlawfully resident in their country . in particular , i would point out that measures to improve the internal security , to strengthen its dialogue between europeans and local bodies in albania and , if the commission and the council , in conjunction with the albanian , the italian and the greek authorities targeted actions are required . the inadequate social , economic and political conditions in combination with lack of legal certainty defective or and organised crime lead to massive wanderbewegungen . mr president , as opposed to mrs pack , my view , the more groups are dealing with albania , the better it is . we obviously cannot immediately a solution to the whole issue them , but medium-term we need a world where appropriate justice , certainly , zukunftsmöglichkeiten creators . in addition , there is a chasm between the donors , ourselves , the european union , and the united states - that the financial resources , projects contract out and dgl. versus the local population on the other . let us use implying a bilateral agreements which are legally and confirmed that the work which aufenthaltsdauer , the whereabouts , pay , working hours , working conditions and the sozialversicherungsrechtlichen prescribe conditions to enable the newcomers to force , which will economies of our countries dedicated and instead of nationalist aspirations in a spirit of the cold war to fuel friendship and cooperation between the peoples blossom . people are sent back , that is partly well integrated projects . however we must not be centre stage , as the migranten- and flood of refugees stemmed . it is what the situation in the region can be improved so that people can stay at home . mr president , i also believe that , as mr dimitrakopoulos quite rightly said , the central issue in terms of economic , social and the internal security problems affecting albania remains is to the country in the reconstruction of the rule of law , to guarantee of stability in europe and to restore the image of the institutions and regional authorities to promote . i am as mr liese 's opinion that we the burden of asylum and refugee policy is needed . the action plan for albania and the peripheral regions , in june adopted . these are therefore on the sixth framework programme . there is sometimes frustration , but also fremdheit vis-à-vis the european right , and we would ourselves , along with other community institutions to call upon dispense with mühsal of detailed work not to spare , accurately to work and will attract the necessary time and the necessary staff must be made available . we want , in this report sends out a signal to the citizens send out that we are complaining about the lack of quality of legislation and the accusations of überregionalisierung and centralism seriously . of course , this subject in itself extremely important , even though the limited number of participants in the regulation in this house to forthcoming debate at first sight anyway dagegenspricht . in addition , the report inevitably raises the question of subsidiarity to that in this chamber this evening somewhat controversial one . that interests would be that in the light of this principle an inventory of legislation hierarchy in order to continue simpler , more transparent , efficient and more focused and to make superfluous legislation should be removed , as in paragraph 6 this report has recommended . after much closer examination of the report i am of the conclusion that there be no political principle is that it is a theological . this means that the recognition of the principle of subsidiarity to the lowest districts , local authorities , the intermediary organisations , the social groups , families and their citizens the only one which is actually the sovereignty of the legislative and the administrative operation be able to , must be guaranteed . let me therefore to be summaries . i give the floor to mr fischler . this is an area we penetrate into detail regulators should , i guaranteed everywhere are implemented , and we should consider whether a voluntary agreement , provided that they can enforced and ensure that the alternative is ? - i voted for it , although it is with some amendments were overturned bin , because they did so with the excessive wechsel- and the euro area transfer costs busy . if , in fifteen months later in eleven member states still the same coins and notes are put on the market , the procurement of monetary outside their country of residence expensive . mr president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , i must begin by extending my regret to say that this is what the fisheries commissioner responsible , mr fischler , this cannot be here . we need an agreement to be that the fischereizusammenarbeit and the moroccan fisheries sector stimuli confers on which the national fishing interests of the european fleet into consideration . consequently , we are on the establishment of good partnership agreement with morocco , its position in a meeting will explain that , as you have said , on 30 october , i.e. monday , in brussels takes place . a few weeks ago i was myself in algeciras on the spanish south coast - it is a morocco 's . over time illustrated that they have not only problematic , but will actually be impossible to emerges . the fisheries agreement , the union should fishing activities carried out and with third countries fishing rights harmonise . in a swedish fischereifachzeitschrift were to read , as one of these vessels enriching capture in el aaiún landed , which has been described as moroccan ports . all this will be called into question . it concerns all of our fisheries agreements and not just the with morocco , because even the agreement with mauritania and soon , which concerns guinea-conakry is the real test of funds . 11 months has it taken so that we now have watershed , the meeting on 30.10. , arrive , and so we are also aware that recent actions of commissioner fischler to guarantee that the results of its journey from 26 september with morocco and the high-level , even with the könig , talks . but i would like to a few brief messages to the commission forward , which is worthy of commissioner busquin has taken . my question to you is : if no agreement with morocco is achieved or if this agreement with the commission 's signalisierten conditions is completed , an agreement to stimulate the moroccan output , will the commission then structural measures to compensate for the backlog seizing who reads the affected areas will develop ? as we had predicted , were the negotiations with the moroccan authorities extraordinarily difficult . if this undesirable outcome of the failure of the negotiations , the union has in fact a political and moral duty , fishermen and ship-owners with sufficient funding to help , giving them the livelihoods alive . the over-capacity of the fishing industry of the eu should be phased out . that is why we need very promptly close economic and political relations with morocco whilst enforcing our european fishing interests . so the commission is working on the basis of a new , for both sides useful partnership that both the full support of the fisheries sector in morocco , the fleet , aquaculture , industrial processing and research , as in the allocation of fishing opportunities for european fishermen employs . rights of lecturers ' this is not only with the german language a clear distinction . in july 1999 , the commission that infringement proceedings brought before the court . if it does not , therefore , to our longed-for harmonising systems come in and , therefore , as things currently stand , the principle of subsidiarity not lead to what likely to be calling for a privilege is as discrimination dismissed indefinitely . admittedly , the previous commission under mr santer has perhaps not the best , it was as well . in the committee on legal affairs and for the whole union and for all parties are gathered together so that we show that there is no point in having rights to speak and for rechtschartas engaging , if we are in real intervening cases in which human rights denied , effective measures to ensure that they are recognised and enforced , and it is in this case , the problem . that is in a modern europe is not acceptable . it is true of the education sector under the principle of subsidiarity , but under the treaties are the free movement of workers and the ban on discrimination everybody board , despite having - and i particularly , because i do from a very federal state eligibility - on the principle of subsidiarity as principles of cooperation with the european union profess and seek to make as quickly as possible the kompetenzaufteilungen between the levels in europe after the subsidiarity principle in all situations . this is no longer discrimination be . mr president , would you , from an excellent expert in the surgical fachbegriffe in italian , french and german or by a surgeons can operate ? ( the sitting was suspended at 10.56 p.m. ) we talk about them our deepest sympathy . i call mr ceyhun . it is the rapporteur and also on behalf of the socialist group . with regard to the statements by the council and commission for the third asia-europe meeting the council has informed us that he is currently no reason wants to make . it is therefore an issue that the treaties and under the euratom treaty for the commission is ; it affects many people , nor can many citizens are concerned , but not exclusively spaniards , because in this area and in their einzugsbereich where it does not even a notstandsplan exists , hundreds of thousands of european citizens within the 15 member states alive , in addition to the many who come from outside that it is really quite a costa del sol . madam president , sadly , but very instructive , from the spanish minister for home affairs , mr mayor oreja to hear that conversations with basque nationalists pointless were , even if a future cease-fire and herausspränge . i should enquire whether , for this week a commission statement on the judgement of the british government is being proposed , a discriminatory tax for nichtbritische güterkraftverkehrsunternehmer introduced ? as the so-called liberal parties , including the european , more and more tending to address , racist and xenophobic despotic inclined forces to verbünden , this is not just a serious threat to italy , but it is also a question to achieve this , the whole of europe is concerned . the report but there are also critical remarks about the french proposal . these demands are subject of amendments nos 2 and 4 of the report karamanou . the initiative of the french presidency , we are debating today are , was the idea that the two preceding moralising rechtshilfe-übereinkommen in criminal matters , especially in relation to the fight against money laundering , to be reformed . all i can say that if the idea of combating money laundering overturn it , then this is the fault of the council and not by parliament . on the results of its work , we can only congratulate you . the road they will of course , as mr marinho said - and i agree with this wholeheartedly - which has communitisation . everyone has done so far , we agree that this is a very important initiative is , and we agree on . europol must across national borders to operate . there are too much in modern-day europe , and before giving a hurried of however , i should like to mutual recognition fairer standards see . i can understand that it is difficult , because we in the construction of a fragmentation of instruments emanate to . this is also a need to promote the economic europe should be strengthened , and it is also a desire for citizens , whom we taking account of all , since the european union 's citizens are entitled to safety . we need in the european union a firm stand against money laundering and will be aware that there particularly since the arrival of the single market and from the liberalisation of the market for capital and financial services effective police and judicial cooperation between member states - as effectively as possible , bedarf . out of work as a finanzberater entitled not to presume that the lawyer in itself would not his profession exercise . but i am of course aware that the question raised by several members of the conditions under which the confidentiality of the legal professions , rejection of judicial cooperation in the area of combating money laundering , can justify a delicate one . this applies particularly to cumbersome , gravest and cross-border crime . as a whole is for such a big and important , that it is the council alone can be resolved . hence the need to citizens ' rights should be strengthened , working in a zweckdienliches legal instrument lightweight and the competence of the court of justice recognised , particularly as regards interpretation and decisions . even though i , for more cooperation and coordination favour , i think it planned , that a legal framework to cause to be wrong , and we will vote against them . even a second point is of interest . that is why the full participation in this house so pleasant . as several members very sensitive matters have raised , i would like to take this opportunity to you in all honesty that , as mr coelho has just done - to say that , at this initiative in particular , the first initiative and see what the political will of the council is the fact that the compared with police cooperation that exists shortfall in the area of judicial cooperation to catch up . that is why it is for me too important tool for judicial control has ensured . the programme polite to research in the field fisheries , agriculture and agro-industry exporters was part of the fourth framework programme , i 1994 to 1998 expired . given the importance of the research programme for agriculture and fisheries is sorry that some problems have revealed that the organisation of the programme alike . the court of auditors ' report on the programme polite to which that langenhagen report refers , is only in march this year was produced , while the sektorschreiben to auditing detected in december 1998 , in february 1999 the commission were provided . on behalf of the committee on fisheries , i would like to just a few points . you have kindly on the ambience highlighted , in which the report came into being . she was dominated by the dialogue with the court of auditors and the commission 's departments ; and you have clearly shown how important you herein lies . this shows that the commission has not been inactive and that they whose comments seriously . that brings me to reply to mrs morgan , that the withdrawal of paid sums articulated . thank you , commissioner . the überreichung continue during the december part-session purview . it means , including that some leaders do not want to admit that , in my deep conviction and the initiate the from this parliament so often and so stubbornly requisite constitutional process . i am extremely pleased that today i have the opportunity , with them in detail on this trefflichen draft the charter of fundamental rights of the european union to debate , before making the final position adopted by this house on this text partnership . i personally have no doubt that the opportunity to do so , will provide . there was also remain a few critical comments on the substance of the charter . this is a special position i welcome . it is for us as parliament a great success , and here , the political groups zusammengestanden , that is a positive result , if we were to ensure that the european parliament with 16 members of this grundrechtskonvent was represented . whilst this charter is , in my view , a great achievement and is , as a major european newspaper on 26 september 2000 betitelte which hallmarks of europe . it is therefore my group is absolutely essential , in article 6 ( 2 ) of the treaty any reference to the charter should include . as many have in fact believe that europe will finally had the opportunity to be survive as a mere free trade and the ausgetretenen path of liberalism overcoming to lay the foundations of a europe of citizens to be built . civil society is determined to mobilise and to the european summit in december in nice your voice to collect and a charter of demanding that the real guarantees for citizens of europe offers . i want beside the signatures and more effective political obligations which every day from all member states and all political forces must be implemented . let us do so weep or behave as if we look forward to let us celebrate this great event , i nonetheless meaningless is . the convention has done excellent work . both the persönlichkeitsrechte , civil rights and the social rights . is this the right to good administration , which mrs malmström mentioned , is one of the most significant progress . i am not sure whether latitude mr blair 's contacts definitely grants to speak on his magnificent project to speak . heard me at any rate , nothing . madam president , the last time you have not half of the full or half empty glass spoken . but the council of cologne , supported by the court , that its role as stifter of confusion wonderfully played , ultimately ensured that the entire world has forgotten that this is a matter for the national parliaments , which is in itself with a policy of small steps are to be berth . excessive grundrechtsschutz is just as harmful as inadequate ! making speeches by members hearing , we see that the information needed more than ever , . the big issue on which to make its opinion the waters , is the purpose of the charter . we are once again , disillusioned and unsatisfied . we will , of course , to the charter correct , but with a feeling that does not the fact necesssary enthusiasm and commitment of the citizens of europe treats them , as usual governments , and some more than the other - the historic responsibility will have to take . the rapporteur , mr duff , according to this means an important step towards improving the quality of european integration . demolish the need to do was to which i recommend a study of the statements by the convention 49 and the case-law of both with the charter consequential tribunals . mr president . the first time since the creation of the european union that will lay the foundations for a constitution attached , a constitution for a supranational structure , as the union philosophy . you have understood nothing . we marching towards a social and democratic europe , for a europe of citizens . until then , the draft before us charter the parties , unions and environmental groups , churches and many other groups in the member states and candidate countries of the union as an interesting basis for discussion on the future cooperation between the peoples of europe directions . i would like to mention three points which , in the course of the morning cited by other members have mentioned . the charter , the us today is to be adopted , is not only the joint fundamental rights and values which form the basis of our community due to be she has done as well visible . i therefore support selfevident of those who some reference to the charter in article 6 and its subsequent incorporation into the treaty aspire to . think of the bernard connolly case , the critically book on the commission for a decision by the court of first instance be allowed to be published . this clarification is particularly important at a time when the union with the task confronts , the legal position regarding the rights and obligations of legally resident in the european union resident third-country nationals to be employed . i myself remain just as he unconvinced that you have immediate effects will and will soon be a binding character is preserved . during the debate i have some frappierende wording belongs , as the charter is a bones of the dog , with the dog and the european parliament to be alternatively it represents a fig-leaf for all that is a agonisierende french presidency in particular in the leadership of the intergovernmental conference was abandoned . this parliament has led to the establishment of a europäisch-türkischen forum propose , in which qualified representatives of the turkish community and european parliamentarians which have given a mandate to have jointly detailed comments . unanimity is not to say that , with the development of democracy in turkey and the way in which there with human rights is being treated , would agree . nevertheless , i am of course , that turkey 's candidature also raises questions . the presidency hopes that this project without delay carried , if possible from the forthcoming general affairs council on 20 november and , i just said , abide by the helsinki made very specific decisions . it is also , what the commission 's progress report very clearly stated that turkey must , as any other candidate countries too , and within the heranführungsprozesses fulfil the copenhagen criteria . president sezar has in his address to the turkish parliament last month clearly stated that it is turkey itself no alternative to this reform , . thank you . here too we have seen some slightly positive signs . we reject the partly unberechtigten from trying to address the report so successfully in the balance achieved disturbs manner . this applies especially to those amendments whereby the european parliament to accuse the past turkey levied manner . this is a fact , just as it is quite true that turkey , like any civilised society , but with the need has to resign to address your past can be discussed , as appalling and they have been may be . turkey 's membership on this basis , not only for geostrategic reasons of us , nato will enrich the european union and a significant step towards a united europe pose . does anybody forgotten that only a small proportion of the turkish territory on the european continent is ? we shall be voting against this report , as we reject all the reports that the objective of turkey 's participation in the european union intends to vote . damage occurring in particular , if in turkey hopes for accession inspiring came about this in view of the political situation does not comply with . report ( a5-0310 / 2000 ) by mrs langenhagen , on behalf of the committee on budgetary control on the special report no 9 / 1999 by the court of auditors on research in agriculture and fisheries , incontestable programme ( research in the fisheries sector , farming and the agro-industry exporters ) , together with the response of the commission ( c5-0227 / 2000 - 2000 / 2133 ( cos ) ] i welcome this report and i will vote for it . instead of human rights and fundamental social rights for a higher level of insisting that it eases the attempt to them at a lower level of shrink . undeniably is she will ultimately be foundations for a future european constitution serve , which in turn the crowning glory of the eu 's development towards a federal structure to be hosting the decisions that now with a suitable legal force , in a minority and steep reached and all of them . the main objective is to interests of the monopolies of the european union at the expense of the interests of employees and the people in general clienteles . a case in point is in favour of article 2 ( 2 ) finding : nobody can condemned to death and executed them . nowhere is notwithstanding our demands stipulate that a family in a man and a woman persists , the children raise , and for highlighting the grundzelle society 's agenda . that is given the fact that those who do not have been elected , restricting the democratic staatswesens exports . certainly if i had wanted it to straight into the european treaties had been ! nevertheless , i abstained during the final vote , because i believe that some social rights less clear-cut than the economic rights are worded . originally it presumes , by consensus to produce a text which member states through incorporation into the treaty legal value confer break-up . in fact , the fight against social exclusion on the level of social assistance shortened instead of making it towards employers and the state compelling fundamental right to leave . personally , i am convinced that the secularism a both timely emanzipatorischer is worth . just as there is insufficient sozialpflichtigkeit of ownership . this document is being legally binding document inappropriate as there is no legal text represents . members of the irish parliament employs recently to ask how far brussels to irish identity threatened and mr ahern seen in the european union membership of ireland , a basic requirement for prosperity and economic success , and does he have all the hurried moves towards a more federal - centralised - europe from which , in the wishes of the majority of europeans against or for rejection would face . instalments just you something which is durchsetzte . i would marginally pointing out that during this sitting seven reports on national initiatives decline , which shows that this system where there is , are ultimately be highly productive rigorously . this targeted measures are absolutely essential to combat this problem , which is constantly changing and internationalisiert . with this initiative , the french presidency has a framework decision on the approximation of criminal law and order in terms of money laundering ( tracing , freezing and seizure of proceeds ] . all the member states should laundering as an offence treat , with its term of imprisonment of at least four years is . as money laundering throughout the world enormous proportions which has enabled us to go through an extension of europol 's powers withstand . it ultimately over the drawing-up of a european strategy for police and judicial cooperation to combat money laundering is concerned . i welcome the report roure for another initiative of the french presidency , in this case concerns improved legal cooperation to prevent the obstacles which have extradite the waschens of proceeds from crime and the financial crime suspected criminals either . madam president , this is the only report which i did not voted for . it would be the first unionsmitglied that the gap in asia geographically bridged and that a predominantly muslim tradition . this particularly applies to the stage where we progressively more and more eib-mittel striving , without setting our financial risks fully met . in this connection i would emphasise the hauptschlussfolgerung paragraph 22 , turkey erfülle the copenhagen criteria non-existent , and say how many condemnations of intercourse or omissions of turkey in terms of human rights , democratic freedoms and of its international occurrences , and on the matching parliament 's recommendations to the country , embracing the relevant european values into line . us , mr president , perturbed by the fact that by official representatives of turkey and exerted by the turkish press does not currently encouraging progress towards that end we will see , it is even an attempt is being made to meet this trend to confrontation . nicosia nowadays , that eleven years after the berlin wall came down , that the divided european capital . the necessary progress is still not sufficiently achieved , and turkey should continues to make an effort . mr president , mr president-in-office , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , i would like , in my capacity as draftsman of the accession of cyprus at this debate . mr president , we cannot vote for the morillon report , because we are certain that contrary to the assertions and expectations of many people in turkey and the procedure the lives of people is not going to improve . yet i believe that we do not to black picture of how things should design . there is therefore an internal footing . euro-mediterranean conference in marseille mr brok , who now for us has faced , has just those in the negotiations detected delay asylum-seekers . here we europeans have the experience we can pass . in fact , it is no longer just as in 1995 that a new balance of the east produce , but also a question of the imminent enlargement of the union preparing . xenophobia , state terrorism or other forms of terrorism belong in this area included , and i hope that this is an opportunity that have to put things right . with this state unfortunately we are arenas . but here too we should be open . all the indications are that it is the inadequacy of the results achieved so far is sensitive , but the solutions proposed in my view , the situation is still not fair , while recognizing that five years for such a complex issues certainly not things are . consequently , our debate today , to help us with the central importance that this policy for the whole of the union has , consciously make . there is no competition between all these needs be , but we must find new resources . the spiral of violence in the middle east , the consciously preside over savage war against the palestinian people , the israel continues to their right to a state denied , threatens the future of the whole region . mr president , as the european union from nice their balance of deepening and widening must find them that we can in marseille maintain a balance between its zentraleuropäischen function and its mediterranean responsibility creators . however reigns in these days rehearsed 's accounts for five years barcelona process leading to imagine that we deal with the mere continuity of the process , with the fact that meetings at ministerial level of participation of representatives of israel , the palestinian authorities , syria , lebanon , etc. which took place satisfied calamities . this is a armseliger consolation too . the today in the mediterranean shared problems are many : illegal immigration , poverty and debt , human rights , drought and terrorism , the mitleidslos the innocent and families destroyed , such as the tragic events in spain , algeria and the middle east process . what we want to believe , but the southern member states must be more than speeches and promises , that we must give you . europe has no policy under desertification and the brauchwasser of the mediterranean countries farms , and it must be an environmental policy for the mediterranean envisage that the coordinates which feelings and also for climatic diversity this region proceeds . the current proposals saddens me far more balanced . turning to the agency in kosovo . we must not disappoint their hopes , all these countries need our help today more than ever . in conclusion , may i say - and i repeat that the words of the commission - that these two proposals which linchpin of a process which present , the achieving full involvement of these countries that are so many problems have been experiencing , into european structures leader . we must in future the responsibility of a few festmachen , even in a director , if you want to make a real concern for the panel is that these various programmes auswählt . so i thank all my fellow members , that this objective as an important reflecting have and am therefore delighted that we in this area in future even more of content in these countries can bring . some of these reports on the elections in bosnia i read that ultranationalisten had legislative elections in bosnia-herzegovina won . as you know , the european union is firmly committed to this historic changes track . discussion of the reports westendorp and lagendijk on a regulation to framework or to the european agency for reconstruction is lead us to recall the volume of aid to refer to the union the balkans to accompany the stabilisation and association process grant basin . the long-awaited victory for democracy in croatia and then in the republic of yugoslavia required of the union , as we have to go further . question time ( council ) as they deal with the same subject , questions nos 2 and 12 . recently , with the resolution 1324 political parties an additional period of four months was attached to and to try and on both these fronts progress to be achieved . i should like to ask about the progress of the association agreement with morocco questions . the stability and development of caucasus are amongst the strategic priorities for the european union . what discussions with turkey is concerned , we only have a major debate on this issue had , and of the union 's position on this point , you in detail mast . i would ask the minister , once again to stress that these legislative proposals on those lines , the advantage of people propose , who find themselves in difficulty pavilions and that it is not a question , immigrants or risk going to criminalise immigrants . we need both introduce legislation as well as measures to create more extensive discussion and a stronger public awareness . i think we have to use every means to do everything possible against these crimes contend , and i emphasize that both the council of europe as well as the un general assembly and , indeed , i believe the turkish government is prepared to do so . that is exactly why the fourteen other countries you missbilligten . they have done . for example : if morning in my country , france , and i speak here as molterer . an extreme right-wing party to power would , i would like to start anti-personnel mine action is , as you against austria have been taken . i wanted to speak of values . i mentioned the values which exist in our treaties have been established , i was talking about values which exist in the charter of fundamental rights re-stated were , and i spoke in particular - that is correct - of the fight against all discrimination to all the texts precede it . this is something we should be adopting . i would remind you that this political dialogue beside the future accession partnership one of the elements of the previously agreed preaccession strategy for turkey genes . question no 12 by ( h-0850 / 00 ) : this is what we must try to achieve - but only the line we will follow . this should be noted that the moroccan side not to the gemeinschaftsangebot has replied . these citizens derive from scotland where on remand after 110 days remand either charged with an offence or should be released , without having the same offence reasserts accuse you can . figured specific measures ( such as the safety of deliveries and efficiency ) , in order to ensure that the member states ' economies less vulnerable to external crises are and what are the measures and the short- and medium-term priorities of the council for energy efficiency and energy savings ? the union 's position on the from the united states did extraterritorial measures remains unchanged . i have noted that the european union regretfully set by the un-agenturen and ­ programmes drained have learned that have been raised , and the negative and often tragic consequences of the american wirtschaftsembargos for the cuban people regrets . does the council not realise that this is a highly political issue , nor that establishing equal distance from victims and offenders is unacceptable ? firstly , this agency of the commission decision decentralization and think further , they excellent results in implementation of its task conferred upon proceeds . the detect no frontiers . cross-border illegal activities , both for drug trafficking , the trans-border cooperation or trafficking in human beings , we must be combated . and it would be a good idea , commissioner patten , a lot of experience , not to say wisdom - in dealing with international crises owns and also various regions of the balkans have been to manifestation of the location of the agency for reconstruction , to thessaloniki , begäbe and is ansähe , as this service is working . however never before has a stricken region of europe as hopeful as at present . i would firstly like to thank the house that the two draft regulations as thoroughly as dealt with quickly hooliganism . even in serbia , where the commission in just copious four weeks a soforthilfsprogramm the tune of eur 200 million has been , been quick results . of course , we can agree to the proposal that the commission 's guidelines that our reforms underlying aspirations for greater efficiency should reflect . i hope that parliament understands the meaning of what i in may suggestions and is in this difficult issue further constructively with everyone involved in concert . this is not the request of parliament to abolish the unanimity rule unable to support , as that of the opinion of the college contradicted . the challenge for the third meeting in seoul was to ensure the asem process both for regierungsseitige participants and also for the general public in detail . for the actual involvement of citizens are concerned , looked at the principle of opening-up of the asem process for a broader segment of civil society noting , whilst at the initiative of the ngos to create a social forum the resistance of some asian partners unsuccessful . we are therefore very pleased that the summit meeting in seoul took place and subject to one or two heads all heads of government were here , even two specific amendments were adopted , especially the round table on globalisation and the duo fellowship programme , 4 300 fellowships totalling 25 million dollars . the commission communication is limited to the treatment of the aspects of community competences and the member states of the tasks cater for the involvement of the organisations . if we assume that everybody meeresanrainerstaaten throughout the world are very few of the economic , legal , political and legislative potential sakes that the european union is , it is understandable , how much we have to look define our responsibility lies . it is particularly important reforming the cfp , but it is even more important to look after the opportune reform of choice . hardly any fish has permanent residence . what we are all policy both within the european union as well as you well over and above acutely aware . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , first i want to you for your support in our efforts , community action in the regional fishing organisations supporting and also to increase . so far have been some progress , but here we must take foremost improve timeframe for planning effort . the constant improvement in productivity in the holdings has already increased supply of led to supposing then there is a unrestricted rise of produktionsapparates in addition , it would inevitably have once again become a strong marktungleichgewicht lead . instead , it preferable that each schweinefleischerzeuger up its own reserve genes . so every schweinefleischerzeuger his own sparschwein . it also addresses the need to promote the producer organisations pointed out , the introduction varies from member state varies enormously . the coms , as has so far worked , made the konzentrationsprozess rather served in that they have prevented him . the globalization of the economy is evident in this case as trick , and this is in cyclical crises absolutely nothing to do . everyone schweinehalter throughout the union can accede to this instrument . commissioner , the rapporteur , mr garot , has the present commission proposal to set up a fund for the pigmeat sector very seriously and effectively addressed . this is a question of compensation . in this sense , i would say that i too kid end by when mr garot and also by the commission 's proposal , as it now stands , or one might almost say that broadly agree . however , if we are honest , that in fact , to the problems really irrelevant . then the inclusion of specialist ferkelerzeuger in the proposed system , as is in amendments nos 7 and 13 expresses . as for , become , the commission has given us submitted ? first of all is the implementation and the haushaltsführungspraxis in the various categories explored . therefore duplicates the court 's criticisms and recommendations in the past years about the harmful effects of these practices , which culminate at insufficiently sound , hasty decisions , by mistake because of arbeitsüberlastung and so on materialize . the tragic events of recent past has shown that management and control at european level to be increasingly important . so the assiduous member states financially who are less scrupulous member states financially rewarded . i should like in this respect also briefly mention that the improvement of external assistance in an area which is a priority of the commission 's work mainstays - both in terms of the institutional restructuring in this whole section when it comes to getting elevated arrears in this sector , and more quickly than before attention must be given . well , the european parliament in an extremely difficult situation , because of this year too , in january , declared that it no longer accept is that the accounts for 1999 with serious errors clouded remains . i would like to highlight a few problems and i hope that mr karlsson my questions today may reply . mr karlsson said yesterday , listing the figures do not be easy . i want to see if this does not even in this year is possible , we can start to directorates-general to measure . of course we know about the current reform of the commission . you will be to reduce the error rate environments . that is why the commission will now and in future assessed according to what extent the rules are respected . i would like to start by thanking mr karlsson grateful that the cooperation of the committee on budgets and this year considerably better work , than in previous years been the case . i would ask you also referred to a list of countries in publishing down the bad management singularly hervortun , and the areas concerned , where it does . madam president , i should like to add at the court of auditors for the report and also for the political assessment of the court yesterday in the committee on budgetary control cordially thanking . here , even reasserts the reform efforts and the need for it . which is that in , as mentioned by mrs van der laan , and we are all quite united - has been said . this would be required , the powers of the president of the court of auditors to extend to seek solutions for the working methods of the court of auditors and its way of communicating may take . revenue and its membership are from one state to another . in its most important work on the common agricultural policy , the special report on the impact of the cap reform on the cereals sector , was one of the conclusions of the court of auditors that the community budget from 1993 to 1997 over eur 13 billion more has paid than meaningfully be added . it is pointless to me to ask questions , which are not able to answer . the european court of auditors also needs to change its operation . it is fortunate , not in the procedure involved too . this report is on the environment committee of the european parliament was adopted by a large majority , so i will have the results of votes in the committee defend . the second point concerns the earlier so promised export ban . that is why i have here an cautious and to make this provision would like to reject . in the second and third reading needs the famous 314 votes , and it is , as this report now before - certainly not either . the commission has a timid , but very welcome step in that direction , and maybe the commissioner in his reply exploring this . the fact that the rapporteur for the consumer information about the risks and on transparency , especially in the area of health and safety should be greater attention to them , we agree . we need the subsidiarity principle more seriously . i remember , however , of a heated debate that took neunjährigen i and my daughter elisabetta has led to when they asked , precisely in the road to go . we had to ensure that we lückenlosen consumer protection safeguarded , without , however , things repeatedly or perhaps to be sorted out . i would therefore , the importance of on the environment committee 's proposals for amendments emphasise , in which transparency for the consumer will be increased and who is responsible not only the producer but also the dealer for any rückrufaktionen for regarded as dangerous products clearer are identified . this also means that the provisions of directive defunct them if new and sector-specific rules be adopted . many of the amendments proposed by this report are an improvement of the text , and can therefore by the commission will be approved . thirdly , amendment no 4 by including a condition called for an integrated into a preamble will continue to which the member states to cooperate with the competent authorities and public or private independent institutions for compilation of reasoned reports be required . although the commission collaboration and the development of common principles corroborated runs counter to the wording of the application of the subsidiarity principle . the commission has no indications of quarrel with the existing proposals and , with the amendments would lead to weaken the rules gap . in amendments nos 39 and 44 propose to the public only on dangerous products to be informed by a total ban on the marketing or a recalling ordered occasions , and between the authorities , which the market surveillance to carry out exchanging by professional secrecy sheltered information not to allow . mr martelli , normally , you can only after the vote over-reacting . but let me give you unusually , a brief . report ( a5-0294 / 2000 ) by mrs eriksson , on behalf of the committee on women 's rights and equal opportunities on the proposal for a council decision [ com ( 2000 ) 33 - c5-0386 / 2000 - 2000 / 0143 ( cns ) ) on the programme in support of the community framework strategy on gender equality between men and women ( 2001-2005 ) mr president , my question relates to the order of voting on the amendments relating to paragraph 10 , which deals with the armenian genocide work . ( parliament adopted the resolution ) the responsibility of ensuring the governments of the states of europe and the governments of the mediterranean partners . aid is faced with this tragedy more than justified . that nachtarbeitsverbot for women is one of the few areas where the legislation of some countries because of the protective measures for the benefit of women to female employees rather more progressive than was for workers . i sincerely hope that the commission in future prompt and annual estimated that the european parliament , an opportunity to examine in greater depth and to debate . i regret , therefore , voted against it , too . it is important for our products are safe , but let us not to extreme measures hinreißen berth . at present , the agency for kosovo predicated on the board guided , in which the representatives of member states and the commission individually have one vote , and in the decisions taken at two-thirds majority in . i believe this algerien-problem for serbia is kosova . the danish social democrats have voted against a report which makes the introduction of subsidies for the schweineproduzenten within the eu are approved . however , even with a degree opening-up of the french presidency aware that the commission rejects these proposals , and the council seems there is no majority for its approval to give . we already have a slight change in supply is a crisis situation provoke . mr president , the genocide of the armenians was the first in a number of genocide in 20th century , the scale than a century of genozide describe it . since sweden may ready to civil crisis management to take part , but not in a common military defence , we can paragraph 15 opposed to the ' desire for turkey , to improve european skills within the common european security and defence policy track ' welcomes . aside from the obligation of erinnerns - one for each insist on democracy , and by the europeans know how difficult and painful it is , however difficult that some european countries that have not been fulfilled , and there must be such acts of cruelty , where for ethnic , religious or cultural reasons lives destroyed and to the universal conscience encumber , no more occur . this of course is a different matter to the issue we are debating , but given the importance which i attach to turkey , i would like already again at that point memory . peace is today in these countries possible because the people are more exercising their right to self-determination hindered it . i have voted in favour of the amendments which at this stage of its demand for them to condolences fortdauert and the pain of a people recognized . this was done at the time of the ottoman empire . the jové peres report to this situation does not just for the existing regional organisations and who are in build-up of organisations systematisieren , it would be intensified , recommending the normal procedure by the commission eliminates , in which experts from different member states to support will be used . i shall refer , of course , to the subject on which we are debating today , namely the representation of the european community in the regional fishing organisations , but you are referring , for example , also in the negotiations on the world trade organisation . those i proposed zusammenfügung was by the former president-in-office , mr trittin and , of the european commission supports , so that parliament 's decision , three directives to link in no considerable resistance or so . for example , pvc makes 0.7 % of total volume of waste burnt out . finally , i must stress that the ppe-de group bogged down in the course of the third reading performance is satisfied . mr president , i too would like to congratulate mr blokland for drawing up this important report sources . incineration is not recycled . the well at third reading this report by mr blokland has for many detected into parliament elected members of the environment committee 's first acid test , where they the practices of this parliament were able to learn . as mrs evans has indicated that tougher emission limits for new cement kilns to waste mitverbrennen , laid down . regardless of the situation in each country is , in all eu member states a fairly general reduction of compulsory liability and the growing importance so-called zusatzkrankenversicherungen and strengthening discriminatory factors noticeable . on the other hand , a draft directive on the following points are developed : firstly , that banning the use of personal data from the genetic ; not a requirement for a gesundheitsuntersuchung before vertragsunterzeichnung ; introduction of commitment to life-long insurance cover and by the insurer ; better koordinierungsregeln for refunds in favour of people who are in the union move or in another country to work afterwards , and finally , the introduction of a vermittlungsmechanismus . whilst we are happy to trans-border supplies have to take this free-market principle seriously begun to apply to healthcare . for example serve us very often as ' example ' for the free market economy , in the health policy would be a fatal mistake , you have to take the lead . for example health data enacted or an insurance for all citizens demands and will in the diversity of zusatzkrankenversicherungen under threat , which are now in many countries and those on actuarial principles are based . finally transpired that there still a possibility , there was a quick treatment should be . this relates to the health of all citizens of the member states and the cohesion of our territories . it is no coincidence that i am by these problems is precisely why confronted , because i come from the netherlands . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , mr rocard invites the commission to in a green paper characteristics of basissicherung for the statutory health should be defined . this is a very serious problem . mr president , anyone who has just as we lives with investigating the social affairs has concerned , remembers due to the old textbooks definition of social protection as a body of state protections to cover economic abschätzbarer risks to be used to be out on the individual or the family and in such risks zielten that an individual , or a family - not even managed to bear . this means that we really have to reflect on why public medical a fiasco has suffered . the zusatzkrankenversicherung devotes a legal system of rights and achievements preconditions . in a bid to discrimination on grounds of the health abolish , had mr rocard 's gans , the golden eggs sets out slaughtered . the commission will within the jurisdiction swift action , and i will try to address the conclusions of your report to answer . and i hope that the proposals are accepted , where the importance of training and the integration into working life is recognised , there must be acknowledged that despite the purpose of paid employment the phenomenon of poverty and social exclusion of growing importance . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , we want to also believes that the committee on economic affairs the rapporteur on her presentation compliments . the next item is the commission 's proposals for a council common position on updating the stability programmes of germany , finland and the netherlands . this leads to a different approach , and we wonder if it is sgp with the attaining the quantitative target of a certain endziffer fatigued or whether further aspects concerning the quality of public finances in the new programmes must be added . our main message is this that the margin for the abgabenkürzungen of a minimum requirement of public spending is accompanied bathroom . i believe that as a whole can be a positive conclusion from them . you mentioned , that is one of the biggest and for the european economy key country , germany , the risk of overheating exists . mr president , thank you , mr della vedova . i am sure that they now our reaction to these two issues : one of the current measures to tackle bse in europe and to develop in france , have to do . we propose the european commission and our partners in the union before , in this way the expansion of testing at european level in accordance with scientific advice arises . efficiency , independence and transparency will therefore be the guiding principles which are to assess the ernährungsrisiken in europe as well . i will pass on this point return later . however , these tests in far greater extent necessary . active surveillance procedures , including stichprobentests , are being developed to ensure that bse in the feed and nahrungsketten comes . in a situation which is what we are now see that there is always seek , after a magic wand lookout for keeping up with the solution which , in one fell swoop assuring the risk dispelled as well as the restore confidence . on monday i will be the member states ask if they are afraid that weaknesses in the implementation of checks in recent years , as an infringement of community legislation is , in the present high incidence of bse play a role . both must surely be able to act quickly and at the same time remain serious . it is up to them , they quickly to deliver . this is a particularly urgent demand , particularly with regard to bse . our group calls on the urgent ban on meat and bonemeal for all animals for slaughter , while the member states the implementation of legislation which bse-vorbeugung and strict application of the european directives do not guarantee . commissioner , i do not know whether this is a panacea but , on behalf of the precautionary principle , i consider it necessary to immediately prohibiting the use of meat and bone meal in the nutrition of all breeding animals unnecessarily , also for pigs and poultry and fish . the debate has begun to our house in order to scapegoats for the council , the commission and in parliament , to seek , in my opinion , redundant . firstly , we must , as previous speakers have said , systematic testing for bse in all slaughtered cattle undertake to feed the europeans are intended . if we use courageous and ambitious action , that we can gesundheitsinteressen of europeans and the economic interests of our producers reconciled , and in this way we can restore confidence . i would stress that these bodies in no way responsible for the crisis , and this is why the european union must show solidarity towards them . i too have the arrogance of some member states do not accept that do not carry out tests and has no legal demanding . the european solidarity must also apply , because our policy itself as incoherent showed that brachflächen , meat-and-bone meal for ruminants , nitrates and pesticides . then i have just listen to what mr gollnisch here in parliament says that his party 's edge in the debate on bse was . we also find steps to reduce all seuchenherde and impose the run-up to the provision of unbedenklichkeitsnachweises current export ban on meat to be worthwhile . it is not acceptable to us that priority must also politically appropriate support . i am delighted that we are still under the stepping-up of tests on experimental basis discourse . but if we generalised testing for bse enact , if we meat-and-bone meal crushed , if we are culling of an entire herd for one sufferers animal impose , we must move from third countries , with which we trade operate and the live animals , carcasses and meat products into the community 's wish to export , equally stringent health rules are concerned . the causes are elsewhere . i very much welcome the fact that the commission is finally vehemently in favour generalised testing flagged . because france has just shown : who addiction , which will take place . why not put implying that , intervention ? bathroom because each time only a crisis occurs , before we come here and say that this house is public-health the absolute priority ? the link between the feeding of meat and bone meal - a very pinning unnatural kind of feedingstuffs for animals - and bse has already reached any clear . here too i would ask the commission to a degree of harmonisation . i urge the commission to a thorough review of in france practised systems in dealing with bse afresh . as a result reaches the poison on the system and outrages as it were , the system . it is difficult , certainly , an area in which national and european legislation reconciled . then there is legislation to see how this meat-and-bone meal , such as this feed assimilated must be further cover up in the system in-built was , in order to protect public health and to guarantee food safety . it has been said that the most expensive that it will be a large number carcass encompass complexion and so on . as examples cited : the ' kissentechnik ' , that the deaths of immigrantin caused in belgium , the use of loud beruhigungsmittel in spain , the transport of in schiffsladeräumen zusammengepferchten immigrants in italy and spain , the tragedy of 58 chinese people who in the united kingdom , the port of dover , found dead were having several times on european soil were arrested , and its general application of penalties and einschüchterungsmethoden varied nature of designated migrants . this obligation is very dropping and to me i am advocate . violence against women has many forms : the domestic violence , a crime in secrecy , the various forms of sexual exploitation , trafficking in women or even the trafficking in human beings . mr president , i would like to congratulate mr nogueira saying that we in our view prototype monetary policy , of course , the central bank responsible for , and it is the european central bank , after the criteria in the treaty impaired . mr president , i believe that , in the public , it is very important pit of home affairs and the outside effects distinguishable , and i would be interested to know whether the commission will now briefly from the physical introduction of euro one measure up to the public the difference between domestic and outside effects of monetary stability be explained ? as long as the greek side here does not get a move on , we will be undertaken procedures continue to follow . we in turn will guarantee that there is a mess- and monitoring system , . at the same decision has the commission undertook to support systems for all states based on specific criteria and investigate the time-scale until 2004 , because at this stage the adoption of a french aid scheme lapsing . the aim of the integration improve europe 's power in the words of the lisbon european council joint efforts and action is needed . secondly , by experience of stakeholders on the ground , ngos , the local authorities , the social organisations and the person of exclusion stakeholders more fully into consideration . this would certainly many elderly people support , but also those who hours of low wages set to work , which you will not decent living permissively such as labourers . it also concerns people who have psychological disorders , as well as large groups , whose language skills are inadequate , for a job to be found . in the united states has increased flexibility with regard to employment ensured that the poverty extremely short time will be experienced as well unemployment from very short-term is . in my country , around 75 % of those who work , but below the poverty line , females . we must try to this important task at least in part to play . these resources must be strengthened , put events and the realism in bill , which is in this area gratifying . . mr president , i would like to thank mrs figueiredo and congratulate her and my thanks too to other members of parliament who are not here , and that the opinions of other committees have suggested . i share your fault , the importance of non-governmental organisations and by regional and local players highlighted and their local experience , preferable to take into account . we have already been agreed that the committee on social protection regularly with the contact group of the european parliament will take . the next item is the report ( a5 ­ 0320 / 2000 ) by mrs rothe , on behalf of the committee on industry , external trade , research and energy on the proposal for a directive of the european parliament and council on the promotion of electricity from renewable energy sources in the internal electricity market [ com ( 2000 ) 279 - c5 ­ 0281 / 2000 - 2000 / 0116 ( cod ) ] . we need now mandatory targets . another important issue , which the committee has agreed , is the problem of netzanschlusses and the netzzuganges for renewable energy . in my country , spain , imposing these guidelines specifically responsible for that between now and 2010 as well 225 million tonnes of co2 into the atmosphere and we were the kyoto targets are unable to meet . mr president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , the commission 's proposal to create a framework , which it should be able to medium term , the share of electricity from renewable sources in the european union to substantially increased , we can only welcome . but the compatible with the internal market is still a danger flow . waste is not renewable resource , despite the fact that every day increasingly is produced . this becomes all the directive at present one would topical . yet i support this proposal wholeheartedly . mr president , i wish mrs rothe for her excellent report , to thank the this week , in which we have with the crisis of climate change wrangle , very timely one . the promotion of electricity from renewable energy sources is a very worthy of support . we need to thorough technical adjustments . it will always be proposals from in the field of energy without great respect them . in conclusion , i would just mention three points which are throughout this debate has come forward . but then it for reasons of consistency in national parameters übersetzten objectives be binding , because otherwise it will come of lifeblood of content and commitment dignity . for the same reason we support amendment no 3 in part , but not amendment no 7 , which in the text of the proposal is highly technical . but we cannot accept those parts which are applying the rules on state aid prejudice . the next item is the report ( a5-0308 / 2000 ) by mrs theorin , on behalf of the committee on women 's rights and equal opportunities on the participation of women in the peaceful resolution of conflicts [ 2000 / 2025 ( ini ) ] . during the official peace processes almost exclusively by male domain will show , international experience and declarations , how important the participation of women in the conflict settlement and in the peace is . decisions on implementation and enforcement of missions are the responsibility of krisenstäbe , and that is the sach- and expertise of women and little account of . you are obviously their positions of power in the field of foreign and security policy eloquent retain and can women 's issues are its view , perfectly in men may bring . mr president , i would like to begin my interest in this report express , in my view , brilliantly , or even is excellent . also , financial resources available which make it possible to give women , to help the victims of this situation has become . mr president , i will point that has set out in detail , which has been no more . i would firstly like to congratulate mrs theorin for them to the initiative on this excellent report , has taken of making an important , but also topical subject matter . it is a question of how effective participation of women in the negotiations for the settlement of konfliken change the world and the dominant culture of gegeneinanders and violence through a culture of peace and dialogue and the democratic settlement of disputes can replace . i therefore support the demands of the report whereby women the right to diplomatic influencing should be given . very well documented , more detailed , stubborn report , the fundamental draws a clear line , as required by the article 17 to take place courageous , but also with a great practical reason and much needed proposals . personally , i wish to condemn any rape and slavery ! fifthly , the role of echo , the office of the european community 's humanitarian aid , which calls on - and this house has endorsed this challenge , too , the gender dimension being done . the problem is that millions of people , mostly women , this business that as a huge demand on there is in this connection , but no legislation exists . i think it would be in the context of the employment guidelines according to the terms of the european parliament 's opinion on these guidelines asked earlier demand that member states to put the sector from them . the immigrants themselves are often a major groups in this area , with special action is needed , as specialized centres , that the necessary aid . this is the responsibility of the member states . the need , in recent years by many times more risen , the fact , but little generally careers and related rights and duties sympathetically . ( the sitting was closed at 12 midnight ) ( extremely loud applause ) we must not just the internal system of freedom and peace minds , but it also with the rules and practices reconcile that with the european community and in the european union for decades to come . the first step in the attempt to the federal state ' constitutional ' adjusting , is to establish a framework for the democratic dialogue as possible about the nature of relations between the two republics . they , the representative of the european parliament that affect the citizens of member states , represents the citizens of europe , can ideally understand why the immediate prospects of accession to europe for us to the citizens of the present federal republic of yugoslavia , incredibly precarious strikes . we are sitting up again . finally , it is one of the citizens exceptionally important and informative one , and it is important for us them during the day conclude them . subsequently , the commission then given that it will be within six months , a specific proposal put forward , and her word . in the european union is documents already almost universally available and it is worth recalling that courageous people and many advanced member states have for many years for more transparency pushing themselves . in the report will be further processing in parliament too requested , and in this regard , i believe that this encompasses here today at modifications are bathroom . we are pleased that we in the report reflected the fundamental principle which we too in the committee on budgetary control vehemently preside . now they will have the opportunity to again insight into transactions to be given to what is the media and lobbying not very interested to know and it has in the open and democratic debate participate , which affects the credibility of the eu is so important . the petitions committee would have liked to shorter waiting until the launching of a document lights . once they no longer be necessary , should of course , these documents is made available . i would also stress that all citizens access to documents in so many mould as possible must be guaranteed . the dogma of political responsibility must not with the rights of citizens to openness confuse . i would therefore call upon the rapporteurs , all references to rights of members from the regulation , the subject of public access to documents is , to be removed , and i ask all honourable members to that very closely to ensure that their interests nor against the interests of the public be played off . in these areas is access to documents lacking and not only will the citizens , but also the european parliament , i have not yet neither formally notified too founding documents being consulted . a large damper remains but there . mr president , i would like to start by thanking mr cashman for an excellent report sources . this is an extraordinarily important report , an important part of what we in this new openness of the eu could focus . ( technical tearing ) this is not just for the principle of unrestricted access to all documents , but of course , that it will finally succeed in getting the doors of council meetings to open up so that the council will not be more in the style of metternich in secret lonely take decisions and afterwards cheap brussels-bashing can operate . secondly , to the question of exceptions allocated . the people of europe is being undemocratic , as a place where behind closed doors decisions . under article 255 of the treaty , the proposed regulation by 1 may 2001 , in other words , two years after the amsterdam treaty enters into force acceptance . you will pardon me that i now move to a number of problems that are currently in a advocacy of certain amendments by the commission on law . as i said , we can in some cases the amendments basically agree , but , in technical and administrative intents together of them work , for example on the amendments on the classification of documents and to record . we are not written in my hand , and i would like to continue in the future suggesting that the commission hartmut response in writing emerged . welcome we welcome the improved status of alleviate the kreditrisikos , particularly the safeguards that are of small companies to be made . report ( a5-0321 / 2000 ) by mr blokland on the conciliation committee draft directive from the european parliament and council on the incineration of waste ( c5-0371 / 2000 - 1998 / 0289 ( cod ) ] mr president , i would like the liberal group , as well as co-rapporteur , demand that the whole slightly more practical approach . so it is the joint wish both from the european people 's party and european democrats ( ppe-de ) , and of the socialist group ( pse ) , the vote until the second novembersitzung delay . i therefore propose that the vote on this report villiers at its second november-sitzungsperiode should be postponed . i have spoken to the order as the returning from the services have received from , and this house has nothing differently . that is all i you today as turnusmäßiger chair can add , as your fellow member , however , i agree with your view . apart from its dismissive attitude in the first stage , when the european parliament emphasises the fared in britain pointed out , these measures were in the second phase , as the scandal in britain wütete , mainly to that country consign , without having an emergency programme and to apply stricter controls and for the restructuring of stock-breeding at european level would have been launched . we therefore want to four main lessons which should in future be taken into account . we have voted in favour of this joint resolution . the increase in cases of new variant of cjd in england and the situation in france , the subject mad cow disease ( bse ) back on the agenda draws attention to this time , even more vivacious nature . for fear of panikmacherei amongst the population or in the quest for the prevention of handelskatastrophe certain governments have the necessary information does not make provision for the commission sent , and / or the first incidence of hazardous realities cannot immediately consumption of the products stopped , whose export not prevented . the farmers alone will in this crisis do anything : we need a plan to back-up livestock farming and measures to restore consumer confidence . the inability of the european institutions as a whole the council , commission and parliament - that there is proper community policy to establish that the security needs of most directly affected member states accommodate , will be problems with precedence in between the constraints of the internal market and the health and sicherheitserfordernissen our population rise . after many discussions with the council enabled us on several points flourishing . the shipments to landfill will soon be consigned to the past and must be replaced by cleaner procedures . the social services and particularly the representatives of disadvantaged groups , to which the programme and more , in the procedures involved . much as we are on the renewed growth and the fall in unemployment gratified that we should not , however ignore the fact that inequalities persist stay or even worse . i think the rapporteur rightly calls for greater involvement by the authorities to partners and civil society of current measures to combat poverty and social exclusion . the ' poor workers ' , mostly women , the teilzeitkräfte , to dumpinglöhnen and at most precarious jobs being employed , rows are one of the wheels of misery , in the official speeches that meisterlich ignored . three years ago , the prime minister that unit social exclusion that whose task coordination of regierungsmaßnahmen depletion social exclusion through prepare complete solutions for sweeping problems are . these are now schemes with more than 60 rotoren which thousand fußballfelder availing . without the development of renewable energy sources will make it dependent on energy of the eu at the moment about 50 % by 2020 to 70 % increase . it is self-evident that we in the use of nuclear energy and the storage of radioactive waste the more enlightened and effective security rules to apply . we therefore need to find a energy searching , already by nature , is there , but as long unexploited remained , as nobody technology converged , you to make use . during the preparation of asem iv , we must democratic requirement in need of reform , by both the information and the participation of elected representatives and civil society , especially in the form of a social forum , safeguard and , secondly , the social benefits and the environment and human rights equation . recently had to this house , sometimes against doppeldeutige affirmations and waging criticism rebel . we have seen that the parlacen with the same wechselfällen were going to be like this parliament in its infancy . consequently , we had to fight , which parlacen fights to continue more competences , more resources , increased participation and the exposes the representativeness . this parliament of central america is just as well as the european parliament to prestige , credibility and legitimacy win , applying it affects the actions of its groups based , because the parteileben is the faithful account of their represented societies , or at least there should be . with regard to human rights but help since 1990 the programmes for the protection of human rights , focusing on this subject apprise and the people of their awareness . ­ b5-0855 / 2000 by mr van den bos , on behalf of the eldr group ; the extreme confusion which surrounding the election in recent weeks in côte d ' ivoire , which so far as economic model country in terms turned out prevailed , is symptomatic of a country where an economic crisis , social desperation and as a result of political chaos sway . the political and military and religious leaders must make every effort to a national reconciliation as possible . it is particularly this very debated the ivorität stop and any reference to the ivorität from the ivorischen constitution at distance , nothing other than means creating a national preference , which we in our own countries combatted and its underlying logic culminate in the ethnic cleansing is . it also has the grundgesetzänderung supported with a view to its greatest enemy ouattara due to the fact that no both its parents are ivorer , either . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , although the ivory coast , compared to other countries in western and central africa from having a haven of stability and democracy was that there has long been ethnic and religious tension , there were also provide abuse of power by the previous government of president of bedié - which has finally to drastic rise of the military conducted . we condemn the ethnic violence and above all the political leaders , whose demagoguery which inspired was . the next item is the joint debate on the following motions for resolutions : the forthcoming eu-asean-treffen in december in laos offers us a great opportunity for this regime in the strongest terms reprehensible . i have in fact , a confidence in our own minister for them to these issues there are addressing . asean has , in any event , as a paper tiger transpired that she did not succeed in getting to the atrocities in burma to react . the junta announced that they intend to present a party to all annihilated . there is a historic inheritance , and , of course , the situation is difficult . this tentative improvements in recent years , as its not at the author of the amendments proposed by the socialist group , mr sakellariou , due to be , resulted in a situation which certainly no longer disastrous , we still do shattering and not equal to the current tasks vietnam is . mr swoboda , the european parliament is flexible and efficient . however , it would be appropriate if the us president biting hanoi rather than to the strengthening of cooperation focus , but it is of particular pledges vietnam who 's appalling human rights situation in the country in every respect flourishes to improve hooked up accordingly . i urge the council and the commission to take a firm stand against these crude violations of religious freedom and by the vietnamese authorities to protest . the trial is also to sign the cooperation agreement between the commission and vietnam in 1995 resulted . these are obviously share in that resolution contained that we have tabled . i also believe that we do what we can do to them to help them . mostly they would , however assistance if we take any change in the situation they were and countless other people in the world in this plight has delivered . at present being medium- and long-term solutions being debated . mr president , commissioner , the floods that in recent weeks alongside other european countries such as the united kingdom , spain , ireland and france and other areas norditaliens devastated , ask this house back with the problem both of exceptional emergency measure to the plight of the people , municipalities and businesses to relieve , as well as a longer-term policy ; we want a repeat of natural disasters such proportions preventing . in fact , the transport sector is being given its foreseeable steady growth - over 38 % over the next decade , more far-reaching measures which will be necessary . the debate is closed . this is perhaps one of the habits of parliament , but i find it very difficult to have to give the impression that parliament 's europeans with such a low attendance commitments to this issue , and the european commission such an exercise entrusting . ( parliament rejected the request for urgent procedure ) the economic and social policy in the eu , the purchasing power and the ability of workers , contributions to pay , has limited , and the appearance of new diseases and the zügellosigkeit the drug companies , the costs of health care flourishes in the level driven . in that way , the private insurers wider than that door , provided that they are voting for patients and the premiums ( initially - not to diseases spread . who is not much money is spent and that is not over . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , i am particularly glad that today i in the presence of a group from my constituency well-written able to say that i warmly welcome . but this means that the colleges plenty of time will have to face the new rules preparing . the report says that there is growing consensus that the current arrangements cannot be to the development of the financial sector in the past ten years into account . we say yes to wider consideration of risikomindernden techniques , and we also say yes to enlargement of the grundgedankens of the basle committee . the same consolation to take the important contribution to this report overall process note . finally , and this is the crucial point , we are fully aware that we in the treaty established institutional balance must respect . the vote will take place tomorrow at 9 p.m . allow me , mr president , i am open to the opportunity to deal with the ombudsman , mr jacob söderman , on his work in tackling abuse in administration and therefore also in the quest for a europe closer to the citizens of the work of the community institutions to be congratulated . mr president , the european parliament has happily completely in line with the scandinavian beamtentradition always urged that the position of the ombudsman to strengthen and consolidate . the vote will take place tomorrow at 9 p.m . lastly , access to documents a basic civil , and to the candidates are no document priority over the prüfungsunterlagen . we think it is legitimate for a candidates access to its own korrigierten prüfungsarbeit receives , because access to documents is a fundamental right , moreover , in the charter of fundamental rights is recognised , on the this week we voted on . so it should be . all the other institutions should follow this example , contained in the committee on petitions has recommended . the citizens of the european union must in contact with the community institutions make positive impression . and the new means in this case , the best practices to follow and all this can be avoided , as our experience in the union 's credibility in the member states themselves in misskredit can bring . in other institutions concerned , it has recourse to in this report and for the demands of the ombudsman has raised procedures by yourself , either . the minutes of yesterday 's sitting have been distributed . if you caused by a unavoidable catastrophe are prevented from being , it is democracy disrupted , but if they have no wish to come , then they must views are not . the underlying light perimeter a tougher banking supervision are true , but also have other aspects , particularly the solvabilitätskoeffizient , to take into account the one gewichtungsparameter for the other contracting parties are taking this with the assets of a bank associated kreditrisiko approximiert . preliminary creation of a european police academy ( epa ) this police cooperation plays a leading role in the main objective and , for the citizens of europe a high level of protection within the european area of freedom , security and justice can be guaranteed . enlarging the european union , which extending the territory of the free movement of persons brings , which must complementing measures for safety and the peaceful coexistence of the member states accompany . i see that , the conditions in french and portuguese prisons is radically different . that means that you common standards are to have to take that first define , for then we have some training which completely different ways can be made . thanks to the work of mr posselt is finally provided for the training of polizeipersonals and in the fields of human rights and protection must be carried out , just as important and appropriate now is the recommendation that a capabilities of the internet entering virtual police college in place . but we are here in strasbourg at an almost ausgestorbenen hemicycle and have the downright monstrous to listen . it is a good idea , and in the european union , where people enjoy freedom of movement , which is free trade and the right of residence exists , where people from scotland to sicily or greece trips reality , it is only logical that if we are creating a common system of maintain public order anticipated . in the netherlands , the police on the de-escalation of conflicts and to suppressive tolerance trainiert , while continuing subkulturen , ethnic minorities and the use of churches and zufluchtsstätten for people with no legal residence status and political protestveranstaltungen than normal societal phenomena as well . anyone participating in the right solutions are , for which he espouse , should not fear was that you overlooks the solutions to the others , on fairs . i hope that the academy here as a starting point for the future will supply . this is a good example of what is now being vernetztes europe describe and a europe that the nations of direct contact between bestow , avoiding unnecessary aufgeblähte beamtenapparate can operate . the majority of cases of child abduction are being very efficiently and properly by the central authorities in all member states fait accompli . therefore it is important that this loophole for reasons of fairness and the realism confronted with social development and the same rights and obligations for all citizens of the european union necessarily be closed . meanwhile we welcome this measure and are her wholeheartedly agree with that . we feel sympathy for the objective set and agree with the proposed measures to . in this one day clearly is people who are often with the whole world travel to a child to come . this view of the commission is also thanks to the european parliament 's opinions on this issue , and in the case law by the court of justice confirmed . i know that fifa has already highlighted time and played waiting too long for them to those already in 1998 published by the commission formal explanation whatsoever responded . should go without saying that the union in the wada in the future for issues of sport commissioner will be present . approval of the united kingdom to impose a tax of nichtbritischen hauliers ireland is certainly a very small , but open market , but most of what we buy - comes from great britain . let me conclude by saying that it is the debate here in parliament is still too early , so i welcome the fact , the statement by commissioner vitorino , for the unambiguously the right of the united kingdom government indicating that a system of euro-vignette freely , provided that conforms to the already existing rules and regulations cycle . mr president , levies and mauttarife are of course vulnerable , and that is something i particularly for austria testify , when we discuss this continually have , and while of course constantly for solutions to a good verkehrslösung are looking for . there is no other drivers or hauliers across europe for the benefit british drivers discriminated against . the foots things for his vignette that unless it is a certain reduction in a per-diem-basis granted . on 22 november , that is precisely on 25th anniversary of the crowning glory of king juan carlos , the spain the path of democracy has opened , was one of the foremost representatives of this democracy its belief in freedom , tolerance and respect for others , with his life to pay . i therefore ask you to put their interventions carefully in our minds to bear . the eu 's negotiating position focused on the safety of environmental objectives of the kyoto protocol in the fields landnutzungsänderung and forestry , to the issue of the ' sinks ' , the relationship between the the kyoto protocol mechanics and national measures , including ' ergänzungsgrundsatz ' , and the system of erfüllungskontrolle . in order to prepare the next meeting the eu should not all the issues again discuss , instead , to the principal concentrate , therefore , in particular , the ' sinks ' , which means that the ' ergänzungsgrundsatz ' and stringent erfüllungskontrollen . mr prescott was more of the wasseroberfläche disappeared , and we do not know how long it places still bands will . finally , i think it right that it comes to the question of sinks toughly stayed , mainly because it is extremely difficult to reduce sticks to measure . for nuclear energy is no prospect of a comeback . however , there is a need for further steps . next meeting in bonn in may 2001 , the gleichheitsprinzip are maintained . at the forthcoming conference in bonn in may 2001 , and one this compromise to be agreed . the task facing the faced with the climate change , which is certainly one of the anspruchsvollsten twenty-first century , when we all want to have a future planet , where we live . the same applies to partial use of co2-senken and of extra aufforstungsprojekten . the hague conference will , as you , commissioner , we do stated , in spring next year in bonn ongoing . madam president , thank you , commissioner wallström , for your speech . if there is a matter that exist in the no differences of opinion , insisted that this was seen in relations between the european parliament delegation and the commission . it is clear , at the next cop6 no agreement can be achieved . we were very constructive and have until the last minute that hague conference negotiations . i give the floor , mr president-in-office . with the coordination of social security systems , fiscal policy to the asylum and immigration issues , visa- , trade policy in the services sector , a very important issue , have certain countries have serious problems . i would add that , to allocated seats in the european parliament there is no agreement has been reached . reaching an agreement which the union 's ability to act according to the new accessions safeguards that are now actively to prepare for is a significant challenge to the future of the european union and the enlarged union . your president would naturally invited . it is in nice which made - and of course , we hope - be approved . as you are aware , in nice too much debated . in a union of 27 or more member states , the einstimmigkeitserfordernis can easily lead to any progress in those areas where we address this principle adheres to prevents . you referred to the european parliament codecision spoken . ( applause ) this task is to reunite our old continent . 's task is to enlargement , as it has not occurred , and this must be prepared for nice . madam president , the basic aim of the nice summit , the broadening of the european union and the preparation for enlargement that . madam president , mr president-in-office , mr commissioner , i think , to date , the governments of the 15 disagrees with glory bekleckert . this is not the right approach . now it has been proposed that there forty-nine areas qualified majority voting . majority decisions shirk our parliamentary democracies in the member states ' right of veto , but the eu itself does not become a parliamentary democracy . europe needs leadership , must precision , must choices , must power to act . the attempt to blackmail by the proclamation appears to be given the conclusions of the european council in biarritz unacceptable , even though it was informal . we are in fact , we believe that the conclusions of the nice displaying a reference to this , in which the commission calls for a framework directive on this issue to be drawn up . i will be the nice comment , if i results known , but i consider the debate is being somewhat schizophrenic . in amsterdam , the heads of state and government have ever been unable to , and this class should now like to make it nice nachsitzen . if the difference between large and small in the council to be too large , we have a few years a great legitimationskrise within the european union feared because the miniature , then no longer feel at home , because they fear , their identity cease to be able to defend . the president and the prime minister of france , it seems to be focused on its own political future and less on the future of europe . the text is not included in the treaties , receiving only a political signature , they will have a considerable legal problems of interpretation soil . but i would like to emphasise how important it is , our union with strong institutions auszurüsten , the institutional vacuum which bogged down by the euro makes up to the economic level has occurred , ports . declared objectives of this reform is setting up more efficient , for an enlarged europe better gerüsteter institutions and also the reduction of incontrovertibly existing democratic deficit . but we also need a restructuring of the committee 133 itself which a much more democratic control drives needs to be supposedly and conclusions must be accessible and the manifested in a wide-ranging and comprehensive composition characterised bathroom . mr president , i am not only to the president-in-office , but also to all member state governments in saying that we have such difficult matters should continue to pursue them if in nice on this issue there is no agreement . the trouble-free implementation of the codecision procedure in recent years has shown that it works . the first step should therefore be that commercial decisions already qualified majority to be taken . as a seven-year-old girl was forcing them to the march of the red army of their own countries to escape and can be refugee against the bombardment of soviet fighter-planes in ditches to hide . as mr méndez de vigo earlier , justified to the charter of fundamental rights shortened . all we can do not expect of him . the agreement that every day , the more likely , it is not a lowest common denominator . unfortunately , but rather a very small , a small common denominator . mr president , i would first like to thank the members , because i feel this debate is extremely niveauvoll . ' i had not therefore , the charter failing to declare that this is not a question of transparency . because the principle of equal rotation also concerns the large countries , like everyone else at some point not commissioner more changeover . in my view , parliament will be able to see that the union better institutional mechanisms has found which allow it may , the further development of the european union which unites us all , to resolve them . the vote will take place tomorrow . mr president , i should like to make a statement by mr van orden said . i am unambiguously against the fact that a eingeladener minister be threatened - and this also applies to the turkish foreign minister . there is no doubt that we here in this house for european democracy , the safety of all our guests and of all , the who is here to ensure eventuality . under the motto " pills mire nothing ' , with the pronouncement ' couriers together the tumore with marijuana ' , the italian minister for health human dignity undermined , recommending the liberalization of drugs demanded . this is at least a poor coordination , not to mention an insult to our parliament , unless one realizes that the meps had nothing to human rights to that , although he recently the charter of fundamental rights by an overwhelming majority passed - is that you in that forum in the european union cannot participate , where they last year there were represented , in the ngos and the institutions to debate . we now have enough discussing it . now we have already been before amsterdam the opinion of the european parliament and the commission , we prefer a responsible for foreign policy vice-chairman of the commission had the same time , the role of the high representative of a special commitment and connected with the council should take . as the european parliament with the feira european council on 27 june adopting a resolution , it will , tomorrow adopt a text which its position before the nice council sums up . the development of esdp is a new important goal for european integration , therefore , the present institutional framework renewed . in nice , the european council several decisions confirm that i refer basin . for the first debate at the beginning of this year the commission will be following countries coordinated statusbilanz for last year build , out of the state of the commitments that the disbursements so far too verwendenden amounts for the most important from the community budget from the edf eu-funded projects tells us . we have also address the issue of regional cooperation work , a concept which there member of that region of some resistance or so , since it is not by again in the past to include wanting to which they had surmounted . it seems to be able to say that you at the council have understood that there is no contradiction between a regional cooperation and develop it , its accession to the european union in relation to take this opportunity to confirmed and präzisierten stabilisation and association process is . previously , under the portuguese presidency a summit with india had and a ministerial meeting with the asean is still taking place . this obviously does not mean that we will be discouraged . i would like to follow the wide range of tasks reiterate that humanitarian aid , evacuation of nationals , prevention , but also the military separation of belligerent parties . it is obvious from the entscheidungsautonomie in the european union and acknowledgement of the voluntary nature of the political commitments outstanding . he is being personalisierung conflict management more than others in part of the world has been done , which i know very well , and it has been worldwide recognition for his efforts garnered . i think the media reports in my homeland to establish this force rather curious . i would mrs lalumière for her reminder of the report about conflict praising the commission , together with the high representative for the european council in nice tapestry . thank you , commissioner . in my view , the european union do indeed put to the test . ungeduldige people complain about making the mill of european bureaucracy indefinitely grind slowly . however , citizens must be as widely as possible access to information and documents received . for the proposals before us is not clear what to do the job should be . with a european flag in their cars , we doom indent , even in the entlegendste refugee camps . for these reasons , europe must take our way of decide that we now have to act . if we as europeans do not , in resolving this conflict a responsible role divorced from the united states to accept , we must expect to see you will agree with other sources of conflict as a mediator mistrustful notes . except that the personal commitment cannot replace the democratic legitimacy of european security and defence policy . some details in the report by mrs lalumière i cannot accept . in the final vote i shall rejection of the report 's voting . the neglect this wide-ranging nature of the civil conflict prevention will be in the long term , as follies dishonour and , since rich me what the council not adequate to the argument that we have taken decisions , but it will somewhere in langgehen ! as you will understand that we are voting against these two reports and propose that everything in our power to challenge the policy ... thirdly , it kernwaffenfreier corridor , which it once olaf palme anregte , is of the baltic and the black sea and create . mrs lalumière , i would like to congratulate . in mr broks report also mentions the post of high representative for common foreign and security policy asylum-seekers . so what a pity , i would ask my colleague mr van orden and others to too , because my fellow members endorsing the ' little teich ' , the irish sea , have in this area so much to offer : the tradition which sophistication and practice . in our opinion , the european parliament in cooperation with national parliaments of the most suitable body . i think that we experience from these recent developments in the future admirably zustatten can get , when we come to the need to address a european defence policy and defence capacity building , which in my view , an equally important part of european integration as the single currency is . i also believe that the combination of these different means a specific situation , a specific prospects of the european union , and that we need , if this policy has shown and consolidates here , as shall apply to a genuine european culture of conflict prevention and management - to develop . i believe that there is a positive dialogue develops . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , ladies and gentlemen , the resignation of the commission in march 1999 showed that we need a reform of its structure and working methods are . the reform may be produced from above , but must be accessible and trade unions and all staff be explained , and these must be for the whole process be recovered . this provision will take time , but is essential and important for the reform . the reform of the commission is an essential factor in the future of our institutions . in drafting my report i could not only the white paper study , but also put the wise men 's report and for michiel van hulten 's proposed resolution on the work of this sachverständigenausschusses who on 19 january was adopted by parliament . the court of auditors is the point in his report that he is the abolition of ex-ante-sichtvermerks not opposed to this withdrawal from other procedures will be replaced , which at least equivalent certainties offer and the other actors such as the auditor can consider . overall , increasing opening-up of large companies to note that you will be more transparent , you are putting it innovative one . she distance itself from traditional top-down organisations , providing information on companies disdain and interact with each other . mr president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , despite its scope accuses it of commissioner kinnock white paper presented no real institutional issues . this is something we have , moreover , this afternoon in the debate on the common foreign policy west . lastly , the thorny issue of the proposal for dégagement tackle . the transfer of control of the directorates is an important step forward , and it will only work if the member appropriately be trained , adequate resources and the responsibility of linienmanager accordingly be enhanced . the institutions and their representatives must have clear opportunities to take full implementation of the administration sakes . disciplinary procedure - and here i have promises , but so far , no clear provisions , no clear messages , such as these rules are to be implemented , and also the question of external has not yet settled finally . such a change is required to god authentic to serve , and cannot adopting rules be enforced . and , as always , when it comes to changing circumstances established is about is again evidently achtsamkeit and rigour required . 6.7 away - a split vote on the last part of amendment no 15 move , since we are not convinced that the present system in the ecb by themselves to this situation will result . as i informed parliament previously belonged , was the commission president jacques delors , and this functioned shoulder to shoulder with sir leon and beforehand with mr cockfield . mr president , commissioners , ladies and gentlemen , we have followed this reform of weal reasoned expectations . issues such as bse , oil prices and warming have quite a european dimension . people must also have the feeling that the commission does accessible and is transparent . the reform is on the european parliament a major issue to which it as the budgetary authority and legislator a decisive influence exerting . with regard to the notify deliberate malpractice inside and outside the institutions , and the officials are employed , will include a series of clear procedure , for the various channels use . this is why i am sure that we have the pleasure , i shall continue to listen . in short , let me say to mr garriga polledo , the categories of financial perspectives still remain . the reform should be of the staff of the commission too will be supported , and they must therefore acceptability . we are concerned , the cosmetic changes at this time deep-seated change madness . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , i should like to begin the quality of the own-initiative report by mrs sauquillo pérez del arco for reforming the commission and its implications for the european union 's relations with developing countries to highlight . we want more accountability in . before moving on projekthilfe speeches , we should try to all existing causes of profitmacherei obscure and those who benefit from the exploitation and abuse of need suffering populations have drawn up to assess and the perpetrators . but as mr nielson of collective responsibility for zugeneigt is , it will be proposing the heue evening certainly defend . what is worse in our opinion in the commission proposal retention territorial division . in 2001 , for example , for the transfer of finanzverantwortung of 22 delegations , modernisation of edv-anlagen with fifteen delegations and the creation of 40 additional posts at the external service provided . maritime safety but the erika and the ievoli sun were not french-owned ship . it is for the disastrous wreck of the erika eleven months ago on the agenda of the commission top . we hope and expect that the transport council of 21 december a share of the common determination of the european institutions contributes to the adoption of common positions on all three legal texts improving maritime safety policy . i believe the prospects for this are good , but we must have the certainty that this agreement also be emphasised . i understand and appreciate the efforts of the minister , and on these two reports as quickly as possible in order to avoid . consequently , i think that its proposal , the question , if possible , in december treating , for basically welcome . as a result of all this we have a parliamentary report on amending the directive formulated , where improvement in many respects be proposed which on raising the klassifikationssystems as an important tool for ensuring maritime safety boil down . but without the legacies of the years that identifications just in the sea sunk versions . you appeared overwhelmed up and for us plagued , often with very serious consequences . in this context , the publication of information is vital to the possible access to information , the community emergency numbers and so on . i have great hopes in the second series of proposals and the creation of a european agency for maritime safety . i believe that your comments on honourable , but we can only have emerged from the negotiations , the council has looked at . we know that the port state control in the past stops scharfes sword of maritime safety were , we know that not all classification societies controlling them as schiff-tüv accurate and reliable and more schlampig resolves them , and we know that tanker without double hulls schwimmende time pose . we rely on the one hand new credibility on , and we should this not through the action taken by the commission on the other hand frittering away . who that responsibility is not meeting , has in our waters and in our ports simply do not . the watts report is tougher measures to prevent ships from which a serious risk pose or under convenience sail without , however , this flags out . nevertheless , i am pleased that the commission 's proposals the main demands of the members of the french coast were included , as the ban on single-hull oil tankers , strengthening controls in ports and assessment of the classification societies . equally i agree with his suggestions for compulsory tachograph too . as already mentioned , required to guarantee the safety of ships important measures relating to the people responsible companies and the besichtigung . in short , measures with which the security of the desired level are brought to do non-binding . everyone talks about which i am quite correctly that the present for this port state control requisite 25 % -zielvorgabe still not being met . the time properly compromises , which is also difficult to implement , is over . on the classification society , i wish to take this opportunity , and this is also my delegation - re-emphasize : the main focus of the current debate appears on the liability in 2003 . with regard to the port state control legislation must aggravated and inspections will be increased . the laschheit with large enterprises is evidence that this powerful are being elected institutions . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , in a debate , the safety of ships and for people 's safety and environmental protection is the subject , revolves around indubitably an extremely important issue . the reports before us in that direction . we agree with a view to setting a minimum size of personenschäden or deaths and physical damage caused . it is left to the member states these amounts increase . the introduction of new technologies and constructive improvements to the ships are part of this important work . we need to a consensus at the highest possible level of safety regulatory and secure . i am pleased to say that the commission lots by these three reports proposed amendments will be supporting . the commission is able accepting amendments nos 6 , 7 and 8 condoned , could do , however , only part of amendment no 1 subscribe . the expectation is that the imo 's ausmusterungsplan at its meeting in april of next year officially takes up . the commission 's task is to make sure that the classification society continues to which the directive has set qualitative criteria adheres to , and the performance of classification societies to see . the commission notes with gratitude pushing towards their initially proposed restrictions . this demonstrates yet again that urgent to get better , preventive and stärkender of community measures to protect our seas is . mr turco , i have understood your message and i shall take note of this . on the other two reports , which is the report on the schiffsüberprüfungs- and ­ besichtigungsorganisationen and the report on the port state , opinion differs , in most areas treads parliament for the strictest approach self-destruction . madam president , i would like the proposal to the amendment in such a change that he will begin by saying : ' urges that in this respect , the council and the commission . report ( a5-0329 / 2000 ) by mr pomés ruiz , on behalf of the committee on budgetary control on the commission 's white paper on reform of the commission - jurisdiction of the committee on budgetary control [ com ( 2000 ) 0200 - c5-0445 / 2000 - 2000 / 2215 ( cos ) ] mckenna report ( a5-0336 / 2000 ) the privatisation of classification societies , which in the hands of shipowners have moved , and a lack of effective control of schiffsinspektion by the public authorities and the tacit liaison between the authorities lassen capital or maßloser player . i therefore applaud the fact that the rapporteur watt , vachetta and piétrasanta tried out in the commission 's proposal remaining gaps . for implementing these measures are therefore the member states . einhüllen-tanker should no longer here can accommodate , if you elsewhere for the year 2005 , 2010 or 2015 disappeared . with the proposals submitted by mr hatzidakis , however , are those of the commission curtailed . the development of a stricter standards at international level is a kind of approach to safety at sea be so . it is especially important to make it clear that the polluter-pays principle fully must apply . this gemeinschaftsmaßnahme requires the reactivation of the imo strengthened , which , endowed with real polizeibefugnissen to enforce the ism-codes , an effective instrument in the way in europol would be . as long as the costs of breaches of legislation within which to their observance is to be entrepreneurs who maximalgewinne looking to keep the wrong choice . preparation of the nice council instead human rights and fundamental social rights advancing and will facilitate the charter measures that are on the reduction of their levels are targeted . i do not recognise that idea but unfortunately in the resolutions . i do not have it , like many , sometimes regrets that the prime minister , lionel jospin , during these last six months owing to the ' cohabitation ' infrequently enough expressed , but i know he his ministers constantly strong impetus has been , and i would like to point out . socially proposals are very modest and give it the first at the lisbon summit adopted commitments substance . this is particularly necessary to strengthen the economic and social cohesion . in this respect , there should be to develop the eu cannot decide that are in danger of alienation from european citizens entails . the british people wants the eu in reforming zeal of its duties is that they efficient communications . this text is the future ( with much more elusive rückende ) enlargement towards the excuses for the establishment of a system of demanding that at its last legs lies . now there is strife not only between ' capital ' and ' small ' , but the big business arguing that also among them . we welcome and support the report for the most important tendencies in the development of common foreign and security policy with that . like every year , this ritual parliament 's report , which in principle the balance sheet of the cfsp is concerned , the de facto and well-known method to gradually gaining ground winning , by a federal breach , that in a particular field downtrodden and has been steadily widening , regardless of the treaties and the in meetings of the european council has been adopted . during our round overheard ethylhydroxyethylcellulose that a rapid reaction force of the states of the european union is being developed in order to achieve peace in and around europe should be . nor is it up to the european parliament , the capacity of a european rapid reaction facility to set or to decide whether the people in this context , for example , interventionskapazitäten in the field of sea and military air forces should have . the conflicts of future cannot military intervention , but only by a policy aimed at social , economic and environmental equity solving . we are totally opposed this european army , as well as against nato and our own national army . for example , the report on draconian proposals on the cfsp and nato , on the ' threat , and use of military force " exert pressure on conflict prevention which directly opposed to the un charter does . ten years after the shift in the east , we believe that ' the european peace project ' the applicant states with these reports a unedifying signal . just six of these paragraphs in certainties , concerning the belong . unfortunately , the clear intention to national abtreibungsgesetze to suspend and glaubenstraditionen with which abortion write to all abzustrafen or to suppress . and it would certainly many tens of thousands of women concerned with the european union pleased that we do with the provisions of the work on the black economy consider , if that is what they would . mrs smet has inter alia by introducing a european definition of haushaltsdienstleistungen before . in the drafting of labour legislation , the needs of budgetary support should be taken into account . you have your contributions to the various national governments abgeführt taking that as gewandte taschenspieler quickly coward did . finally reminds the group union for a europe of nations adamant that now , the european union 's citizens more than ever expect in the course of action to reform and between the dropped the diversity of opinion exist in our countries , beliefs ignored . in view of the human resources , the new administrative reform principally on the ability of staff and greater transparency in the staffing policy generally be devised . i would like to make this explanation of vote benefit to insist on the fact and emphasise that our parliament unfortunately does not have any power , that there should be considered . for a point of order conclusion . the information is in fact , contradictory , mr barón crespo . it is not the case that the socialist group does not want . that is what makes us problems : it is an important summit and what we say that binds us . i must point out that the committee tomorrow afternoon will meet in order to start at the end of the intergovernmental conference evaluate . ( parliament gave its assent ) i would be grateful to you this question entsprächen . i am horrified by the fact that in rotterdam recently of the hunger strikers sympathisers predicated on the command of the grey wolves murdered one . this would obviously be really does not have needed , as the council in june our first reading and the amended proposal of the european commission , who is a huge step in our favour marched , more or remotely adhered to demonstrators . then we should finally be checked whether the conditions which we agree to contribute to the single market work better , and if it compared to the aiming law . our second concern is specially legal nature and has led us to ever closer interrelationship between harmonising market and health protection strike , and we strictly to the recommendations deemed that stem from the explanatory statement to the recently adopted by the court judgment on the removal of ' tabakwerberichtlinie ' arisen ; only to a arbitrary interpretation that argument we get the conclusion that these two aspects are not compatible . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , in europe has there been so far 80 deaths in connection with the new variant of cjd , and europe , its council of ministers , the commission , parliament deciding a tiermehlverbot and compulsory testing of cattle that are over 30 months old that are put its untying for consumption . we believe it is clear that the article 95 , together with article 133 the legal basis for this directive is , as the committee now proposed in amendment 1 . according to the court is a total ban on tobacco advertising in the name of a smoothly functioning internal market unjustifiable . as pointers as ' low tar ' , ' mild ' and ' light ' in my view is misleading , i am fundamentally opposed to amendments nos 10 and 30 . i would also harnessing in the treaties enthaltende commitment discourse . the rapporteur , mr maaten , expressed his explanatory statement einleuchtender suggested that the legal basis by reference to the other article , article 133 on trade , should be strengthened , and he has also proposed that in certain articles lots of change , to ensure that this directive on the basis of valid case-law of the court of justice is being challenged . i regret that , in the committee on legal affairs views have been put forward , which states that the court of justice imposed advertising ban in this directive in a way aushöhlt . as a member of the committee on the environment , i do from different groups very clearly highlights the need neyts-uyttebroeck , sale and the presentation of tobacco products in europe stricter to regulate . paradoxically , this directive , by the growing of tobacco in the community is banned - even if in countries like greece 's tobacco produced so much that it aloud that directive a crime is using it for processing to use . thank you again to mr byrne for his clear recognition by the legal basis . in the european union die every year more than half a million people a needless deaths , and this figure will increase if we do not act now . and this legal basis is for the same nothing , and it is appropriate that the trade unions , that the farms that colleagues here , at the lay-offs out . i am in favour of alerts in bildform , rational list of ingredients , european-level research , gesundheitsförderungsmaßnahmen , with which children can be helped , of smoke , tar , nicotine and addiction escaped to stay . this willingness to compromise was also in the committee on the environment . as i support amendment understand it , would the exception of article 3 time-scale , i.e. tar , nicotine and carbon monoxide . in view of the general nature of the directive is one omits do other rationalize and therefore we must all crush . the presentation of a maximum health warning on some großpackungen would be a reasonable solution . finish by saying that i am pleased to announce that the commission of the 54 amendments in the report thirty-three either fully or in embryonic form part of accept . the main argument , that of these amendments and a report after five years is that it was in fact enlarging europe , and particularly after nice it is particularly timely and effective . summertime seems synonymous with an improvement in quality of life , and the positive effects of summer-time lull the temporarily difficulties because of the zeitumstellung over to it . summertime was not a problem for our common european home . a one-off re-examination from the commission in five years suffice . furthermore , the needs of producers of computers and e-business a tachograph and by kalendern and terminkalendern into account . madam president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , in patients necessary medical research should quickly and unbureaucratically are approved , but they need ethically-based limits strictly respected , and the trial subjects need to prevent misuse maximum protection . this is an important distinction , which we in this report dashed . although proportional to the council also certain contentious points remain , may i remind you that the road bring this issue as a result of long and fruitful finding compromises can , something that we have our rapporteur mr liese , whom i sends his partizipative and constructive way thank , and the council , which has equivalents at second reading amendments approved by this committee of cooperatively and openly showed , thanks to . i am thinking particularly of research in relation to combat cancer , but there are many other areas . unfortunately proliferate , despite the measures new threats , diseases are growing , and often enough existing medicines to combat insufficient . it is incumbent on the doctors , modernised and more effective ways of preventing these challenges second request . the vote will take place tomorrow at 12.30 p.m . in order to second reading and avoid the action uninterrupted so able to carry on with that no vacuum originates , were of the council , with the commission and of course , with the environment committee of the european parliament agreed to the four programmes admittedly by two years should be extended , as the commission has identified , methods and every year to make available , because if meanwhile the new health programme was adopted and comes into effect , there is no more and understandably verlängerungsbedarf can appropriations for the second year consumed . there is high time that the member states agree to the european union , a perfectly legitimate supranational issue more room for manoeuvre and correspondingly more resources to be granted : because diseases know no frontiers . estimations international organisations such as europol decreases according to the import of drugs in the union even too . public health is national policy , and it should remain that way . the next item is the debate on the report ( a5-0355 / 2000 ) by mrs cerdeira morterero , on behalf of the committee on the citizens ' freedoms and rights , justice and home affairs , on the initiative of the portuguese republic with a view to adopting a framework decision on the standing of victims in criminal matters ( 9650 / 2000 - c5-0392 / 00 - 2000 / 0811 ( cns ) ] . a further initiative at international level is the statement by the united nations on fundamental principles of legal treatment of victims of crime and victims of abuse , by the resolution 40 / 34 of the united nations general assembly on 29 november 1985 assumed . you may recall the debate on the so-called di pietro-bericht which some time ago in this house has taken . in our attempt to three fundamental intention is that the law of the victim of information . access to justice and the right to compensation . the most important aspect is , however , i think that the fact that people are finally also at union level fully aware of the need to be a new approach to the action of member states on crime to be found . the member states should be obliged , special police units for verbrechensopfer medicine . italy has at times of france , which has lojacono at walked free secured , extradition requests of this recidivist assassins asked to give categorising his sentence serving dictionary . it is always the victim occupy centre stage - not the offenders . as you heard , are in rahmenbeschlussentwurf three different types of measures : firstly be minimum rules on the rights of victims enact ; and secondly to specific provisions introduced to penalise individual situation of those individuals should take into account , which in one member state of crime victims who are not their heimatstaat is and , thirdly , it states dare to measures to assist the victims to work . it is already anticipating the networking of national services for the support of casualties at european level to help to adequate help for victims guaranteeing , even those in a country other than that of the crime arenas . approval of the minutes of the previous sitting has the floor once again mr varela , chairman of the underlying this matter competent committee on fisheries . na brilliant so ! we still have last tuesday in a trialogue of a joint declaration by parliament and council recent schliff acquired . we are therefore mexicans , a solution to the 2001 budget to obtain . we must be made about how we in the field of promotion policy all existing needs to transparent procedure acting thrive . we asked for their name , and we were told that that was the country without names . the council 's second reading on the budget , taking account of with the parliamentary delegation arrangements made and where perennial quest carried out , to adopt a budget , the funding of all the european union 's priorities facilitates and the actual needs and the actual capacity to implement the resources are . the third important element of this second reading of the council is to reach agreement on the funding of the multiannual programme for enterprise and entrepreneurship , that the employment strategy continue and to supplement for 2001 and 2005 . in general , i would draw your attention to this in a few days on end greater budgetary procedure has shown , how successful the interinstitutional agreement of 6 may 1999 was . the discussions have been sometimes very hard , but always relevant and aided and the exchange of ideas , leading to a better mutual understanding and thus to accelerate provoke a , i hope , for all satisfactory agreement is made . significantly , that no country in the balkans because of the democratisation of serbia now less aid available will have , as i told the developments in serbia was planned . indeed , the repeated take-up within two consecutive years - in my opinion , however , wrongly , as some kind of revising the financial perspective examination . today we reached by the council 's willingness belongs to 3.5 % aufzubessern . for that i am referring in particular the commission and the council my sincerest thanks for . mr president , i share mrs haug on her excellent work he has done . i suspect , if i may fervently for simplification and flexibility need for small amounts and the revision of sizeable . we are in the coming years yes to see how it works . we now face a situation where we need to decide whether we this budget thursday to confirm or not this and we must take this of course looking at more closely . but the interinstitutional agreements between the three institutions are also a great thing : you ought to lead to our joint planning certainty eventuality . the growth problemdruck mainly relates to unemployment , the bse crisis and the balkan-stabilitätspakt . madam president , ladies and gentlemen of the european parliament , i am happy that before you today that are the french unionsvorsitzes outline and the during recent months we have achieved to assess . as we had promised to do in nice not lawless questions diluted . this is the process of closer cooperation , that under the first and third pillars substantially simplify arrived . it is both a tremendous challenge and an historic phase of reunite our continent are concerned . with this charter will our union refreshed , are the values of dignity , freedom and solidarity , on which it is based , consolidated . a few weeks got the chemietanker ievoli sun near the channel islands in distress . we did ambitions , they are fulfilled . for these six months - in my opinion today to be able to say - is our union emerged strengthened ; they are prepared to accept new members families to unite - now that we are certain to share its capacity for action , but it has also become entrenched in the heart of our fellow citizens , with regard to fundamental values , in terms of growth and employment , solidarity , safety , the preservation of the european social model , and it has also to power and influence at international level won . ( applause ) with the approach pursued seemed if it is unavoidable , but is due for two reasons all the more disappointing . firstly , because it is even worse , a qualified majority to succeed , and therefore a blocking minority will simplify , although in an enlarged union the opposite is necessary . ( applause ) ( applause ) the entitlement to use the nice commenced , was probably the most ambitious european ambition for a summit for many years . madam president , mr president-in-office , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , the punishment in my group on the fifteen invoke the little einnehmenden spectacle that they have the surely sprachlosen europeans have provided to take this opportunity to live seen , as it is really to be a joint vision , i solidaritätsbewusstsein , trust between member top-level today , is very hard for . obvious to everyone person with wise to you the very serious consequences indent , arising from the project of a federal europe with 27 or 28 member will emerge . mr president , i would emphasise that , in particular france post-nice once again , as loser stands . madam president , mr president , the group of independents for a europe of democracies and diversities complains that the presidency 's embassy did not touch on which it back in july übermittel recently . many do not yet port , in which the european union dereinst access to come . so there is also a limit , which should be taken into account . i believe it is not just the opinion by three groups , but also by other groups , but for technical reasons cannot subscribe to succeeded . it is therefore desirable that the development of medicines in the community to encourage , as leading to the patients heightened chances of an effective treatment be possible to offer . i congratulate my colleague mary honeyball on her first report on the european parliament . amazingly , mr fatuzzo the word , and i am interested to know what pensioner him now what has said . the victim must be seen as a person who are in a special situation is that the uncertainty and oppressed has left : the situation is perhaps even worse if the offence is not in the homeland of victims occurred . the next item is the continuation of the joint debate on : it was to give up hope to see that the debate relying on focussed on who one vote pretty much should be given to whether germany and france , the netherlands and belgium , portugal and spain somewhat dazugewinnen . we are pleased that a new method has been created , and we hope that in the hope that stem from the intensified cooperation , causes europe will continue , there will be in a position to a future constitution to produce the dispel people 's hopes for this marvellous project which the european adventure , which is wood . the candidate countries will be the egoism of our own member states held up as an example . the delight is unevenly distributed , but the main message is clear : europe is now in an enlarged eu reformers boiled down to the nice treaty and is close to the citizen . the partikularinteresse that had been tabled . by giving in extremis unanimous agreement on the treaty is an open one , which expansionism questioned had to avoided , but we can talk of a latenten crisis , which we are now going to have depth . i do not believe that it is more realistic , for enforcing its own national prestiges rather than for the effective operation of the union to speak up , and nor do i believe that the eu 's citizens masses stood up to the sea battle a their leaders in nice to listen . what a wonderful project stakes eleven years after the berlin wall came down ! at that time was for this to the half-way europe that is what we were for the whole system . post-nice is a becoming impossible to institutional inhibitions can occupations . firstly , an institutional imbalance , insofar as the council too , the commission and parliament fewest got . this model has discarding . the consequences for europe would be totally unpredictable been . for example , which as you know , at the beginning of the european union to blocking minority two of the so-called ' capital ' countries require , now there are three . of course has been determined , enlargement is possible that the european parliament will rightful place in the debate , in the further development of concepts and thinking eventuality . the common european interest , as the sole guardian - and on this point , mr moscovici legitimately , there will be no one can cause , i do not address the amount of national interests legs , they are intertwined and cancel each other , and the image of prime minister verhofstadt in this respect , advisable . we recommended its ratification . i personally believe that the re-weighting of votes on the basis of the population size afresh is . the european parliament has done this , and the council should have been doing the same time . but nice , mr president , is not the end of path , but the basis of a new stage in challenging . so i will come back to what is already a couple of times has been said . naturally the apparently come anyway , the complete paralysis of the future , enlarged european union to ensure - and enabled the ambitions of the french presidency does not in a new draft treaty being carried out . mine gets nice is a inadequate . i do not know whether the commission is following the debate say about it , but given the absence of the council , i wonder whether the commission too is convinced that until 2004 czech and hungarian and polish parliamentarians and members of the baltic states in the european parliament will sit . we did not verhehlt that towards enlargement of the same dynamism and determination smacks of nice has come to be in order to achieve our aims , and that its most historic task is that the european parliament and the commission for the next few years have to do . above all , there remains a problem of funding the balkan over the coming years in full unsolved there . i would like to begin by thanking the rapporteurs , the chairman of the committee on budgets , the commission , the council and the presidency congratulations for their work , for the conclude the agreement affirm that we see the adoption of the budget for 2001 makes possible . the rapporteurs we will need to him . are also good that the small- and medium-sized firms as main employer additional resources have been made available . at the footballing applied , we would witness to a assuming unentschieden discourse . the fact that this budget , and we conciliation could agree , does not mean that all our problems are solved . its importance struck us not just to , but they derives from the treaties , although the council is sometimes difficult , i creditable . this includes the commitment of the college of commissioners to a just and efficient distribution of human and material resources for implementation of different policies , in other words , the political importance of this parliament and the managementpriorität by the commission must be brought into line . that is why it is precisely what the common european level , safeguarding the environment and regeneration has driven forward . there is a lot of post-nice ' . you are right , of course , keep to this question to bear in mind . neither military might still possible continued rise of the dictatorships have yet to be feared . shrewd will regard russia financially with morocco nigh on an equal footing or slightly higher , and surely that cannot be right . it would be very dangerous , if the people of europe into a logistic dependence on russia blundered break-up . and there is also a tacis programme only very limited involvement , not to say that it only a drop in the ocean will be . the birth-rate sink , and the death rate is rising . the nettoverlust total populations of russia is around a million per year . the solution cannot be political . mr putin himself said , the main problem lies not in the status of chechnya . as with russia , with the population , with society does , that is the west indifferent . mr president , the european union has in recent years various russlandbezogene documents adopted which are a good basis for a close relationship with the russian republic form . and what means freedom for the people of chechnya ? it is the first step , then we will ensure that laws are respected could , if the second step is , moreover stabilised , the economic development , and fourthly themselves to be as a result , brushstrokes of civil society ausprägen . but this is an excellent report which and the foreign policy itself points out , the importance we relation - the strategic partnership - between the european union and russia to say . this means that we are in key areas such as those of a number of lady refers environmental and nuclear safety , on kaliningrad themselves and for better coordination of different sources of funding must be targeted . we need to predicated on the previous speaker mentioned avoid making mistakes , the beginning of the last century was drawn up by russia to the leninistischen revolution of 1917 practicality of european political life has been excluded , with disastrous consequences intransigence . as you know , the council has adopted a common position on the review of directive 90 / 220 / eec trafficking . in my opinion , can you do so , the answer to your contentious issues still find . i am quite prepared to this debate to place , but there is the most suitable framework for it to be agreed . i do not have enough accurate information to answer your question . nor can it be said , it has no precise information about it ! the council harks back to members of the conclusions which the committee at its meeting on 19 may 1998 on betrugsdelikte with alcohol and tobacco has adopted . every member state has its willingness to stepped-up anti-fraud reconfirmed , at both national and at intergovernmental level . the european union has repeatedly expressed its strict compliance with the right to asylum reaffirmed . that in june 2000 in cotonou signed akp-eg-partnerschaftsabkommen sees this stipulate that the community at the latest by 2005 to duty-free access for essentially all products from the ldcs makes possible . i would remind you that the presidency cannot be there , which was particular individuals to say that this is not just any government can , but rather , what position the council at the time ' x " or " t " espouses . it is a system be established so that they do not tested beef to eliminate buy and producers in compensation size of the market price to pay . it was right from the point of the french presidency , a european answer to this crisis to be possible , by the diet , social and health are concerned . as part of the barcelona process unterschrieb algerians a set of principles , including the rule of law . i have already had some weeks ago the opportunity to present reflections to prepare the special session of the united nations general assembly on the follow-up of the world summit on children , that in september 2001 will take place , to implement . subject : engagements turkey under the partnership eu-south - turkey in the commission 's proposal on eu partnership - turkey stipulates that the presidency will be the situation as regards litigation pending re-examine , particularly on the impact on the accession process and with a view to resolving this conflict on the international court of justice by the end of 2004 supporting . does the council , the matter as part of that partnership with the turkish government to raise ? will the rights of defence adequately provided , and i mutual recognition achieve anything ? it is also a matter for individual member states at national level , a sovereign decision on the use of force within the context of such operations to be taken . subject : implications of tax for the single market work the commission president prodi has novel in november in an article of the financial times said that it would not harmonization and joint tax levels in the eu , as the rates in the hands of national parliaments , and here too , should remain . 23 to no. 32 will receive written answers . the stabilisation and association agreement between the european union and the republic of croatia is timely . mr president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , i should first like to congratulate mr baltas warmest congratulations on his report and also to its speedy report because it was important and right , promptly to the changes in croatia - mrs stenzel has already mentioned - to react . that is really positive thing to make further progress there has been reached . 1991 / 92 were more than 250 000 croatians from the kraina , in western and ostslawonien banished . this was of course , for south-east europe an historic year . i believe that such a balance sheet is in sight . this gives us an important point and i hope that we come back on the support of this parliament can count , if we do , at the end of the negotiations on the stabilisation and association agreement officially will consult . the wahid government , has a great deal of opposition , and the reform process is obviously faltering . even papua-führer are still in prison . also in our resolution we are asking the commission to the route to taxation . thus , the statements from the commission 's communication from the start of next year entirely is justified , even though it with a certain euphoria occurred , the escapes from those changes resultierte . the intergovernmental aburteilungen and which do not like to eternity established refugee camps are rooms of confrontation between the old and new indonesian powers and testimony to the weakness of the democratic process . on besorgniserregendsten is the situation in the moluccas , where the dschihad-kämpfern in illegally , free hand indefinitely . irian jaya too is a victim of umsiedlungspolitik . we have to be able to prioritised . we must ecological , social or economic issues not in one basket with the key issue of respect for democracy and human rights , which in our relationship with indonesia clearly political priority . the resolution makes it clear that irian jaya too indonesia needs . while , things have improved , and president wahid warrants our support , but there are still enormous difficulties . it is of course not acceptable for tens of thousands of refugees from east timor 's clemency armed rogues are handed over to the patriotism excuse to a punishment for their criminal past to escape . this is due to the size of the country together since indonesia is in terms of population of fourthly , in the world . that is due to its economic importance , its regional importance and its significance for the environment together . that is why we need to policing , administrative and judicial means and mechanisms both among the member states , and with the eu connect . ( the president cut the speaker off ) mrs schreyer , you have before the house repeatedly emphasised that you as the commissioner responsible for fighting fraud its role in particular , that is the independence of olaf alive . the problems arise because of the introduction of wirtschaftsverwaltung at eu level , because the content of the so-called ' community ' generated models of re-allocation of eu taxpayers ' money ill-considered and sometimes quite unwanted . i would the rapporteur , whom i as a politician and as a man greatly admire . like to congratulate on her report , but unfortunately i cannot do so . in the report concerns the protection of the community 's financial interests and about how we deal with this issue . these are the main points . i shall deal with the time limit for the presentation of the individual points briefly . the debate is closed . there are eu-wide legislation which businesses against such negligence protect , and the commission has now undertaken to separate rules to guarantee the immediate execution of payments ourselves . we have other mechanisms so that we have not when cases of fraud to draw attention . you , mrs schreyer , the council has just quoted , said that there was a member state which is the establishment of a european public prosecutor fought by me . therefore , parliament is very sensible , if the court of auditors would know about exactly what we expect from these reports . neither the commission nor the member states should shirk responsibility can , especially by mutual emphasises the responsibility of each other . he made it very seriously and regretted that state of affairs . it was a very meaningful , and i believe will most certainly have confidence in itself as step of these , the commission and the court of drafting this report in its deliberations schemes . you see to what i have said that it is only sensible , these proposals further discussion in order to find out what means greater responsibilities campaigner them . the first essential deficiency is the lack of harmonization . i therefore believe that we need also to article 4 reformed . within the internal market should savers in a position to be their property rights in favour of enterprises to which they invest , and in favour of corresponding businesses to operate . it is apathetic , whether it is individuals , businesses and pension funds are concerned . let us not forget the prior to the fact duck : some takeover have any restructuring of the stellenplans , laying-off ... , i.e. measures which you refer to the employment effects . but what do we as parliament we on the amendments tabled omit happy ? that is the principle , on tomorrow omit opinions diverge be : what is it with a law ordering of acquisitions in particular of ? easier to be resolved , however , the question of competence of the regulator . the rapporteur 's amendments to coming to potential legal confusion , and it would be wrong for us such a request give our assent break-up . what i regarding these take-over directive note that this is the close relationship , which between it and millions of voters in my country and millions of people with overlooks the stock market allied pensions- and sparplänen exists . this sort of some member states existing procedures not only affects the realm of public takeover bids , it has become far greater extent , within the framework of the commission intends general revision of company law could answer this question possibly further investigations are carried out . finally , i would remind you that it is in accordance with a sooner expresses the wish of the european parliament for a framework directive impaired . resale rights is the essential and inalienable rights of visual artists to a share in the proceeds from the weiterveräußerung their works simplistic . firstly dread british lobbyists job losses . the compromise adopted by the council is therefore simply quote a poor substitute the original commission proposal , which is the first reading parliament 's firm support earned . i also hope for the support of the commission , at least one of the big three main points . we are dealing here with the vitality and competitiveness of european art market . in another case is the work of art undoubtably elsewhere , namely in america , been sold . this amendment is only partly acceptable . liberalise the market for postal services that is my suggestion , mr savary . firstly , we must ensure that we in the postal services favourable price obtained . secondly , we must ensure that we high-quality , and thirdly , we high availability of postal services in all aspects of the european union can achieve . the committee on legal affairs threw greater demands on the preisgrenzen that for the universaldienstanbieter reserved services to proposes but also the 150-gramm-gewichtsgrenze before and denounces the unanimously in the draft directive set 50 grammes , either . lastly , we cannot accept liberalisierungstermin new , unless prior assessment carried out . you know how difficult this dossier is , after all , it is ideologically loaded , sometimes on both sides . this step , which by some members of this house fully endorses , would have on the postal services in the european union catastrophic consequences . furthermore , this will on the closure of post office outlets in the country holding , because it fails to postal services cannot survive . if we in the past pace on , we will 100 years for an open market for postal services in europe to be built . madam president , i would like to make three comments . when we talk about this new directive will be an issue especial account . it is not and cannot be . on a fair competition can monopolisten prove that they understand their business . but if oma is looking forward to a kind briefträger revision , as well to high quality of postal services is , then , we do not sad picture , but also rejoice . anyone who so badly drafted in a negotiation hurting , who called for the report on the implications for 1997 be submits who ideologically argues , exactly what you said objectives we will only be achieved if we liberalize , liberalize , liberalize - which must be surely not wonder why he has the nose collapses . mr bolkestein , the commission is the guardian of the treaty . it would be as if we were the average for the income of a steinreichen and a bettelarmen ascertain that then the figure is certainly satisfactory , because of the fact that the bettelarmen people to exist in social terms it as acceptable can be considered . there are new times arrived , mr simpson . governments which the breeds had , were not socialist , but conservative or liberal . i was clear from the start that the commission 's proposal in its original form would never be accepted . because of this openness and this liberalization we all agree that it is important , however , the rhythm . the effects of the first directive was not made public , because the consequences are obvious : job losses and deteriorating working conditions , not equitable and blanket provision of postalischen services , particularly in the countryside and in the arbeitervierteln . so slowly we arrive at an voting in favour of the single market major political issue , the liberalisation of postal services , headway . that is essential for the development of direktmarketingsektors . i appeal directly to the british conservatives . and of of postal ably , may i say : if it goes through , you are a valuable breath on offer . let us hope that we shall one day to succeed in this althergebrachte overcome and the egoistic korpsgeist overcoming so that europe really move forward . only 3 % of briefmarkts have already been liberalised . it is with technical development and overtaken by consumers ignored when they are not appropriate performances are getting for their money . we can take this adaption only support if opening up the market controlled and gradual by a set date is made . on amendments nos 60 and 61 is concerned , i support the call for the single market at a later date , the within a reasonable time frame to change it . the commission will be the same position , and therefore , the council on the basis of the commission 's proposals make the decision that will be sensible to do that . parliament must now make a personal statement . my second report resembles so many points in the first and assumes the amendments adopted in plenary . it is true , commissioner , that we continue to have certain reservations and some differences remain . mr president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , i would like to start by thanking the rapporteur , mr dary , alternatively , which is very clear about the reform , its history and their relationship - as i do not do that again - highlighted . it is with various specific community regions , in the outermost regions which are a number of difficulties in entering the market to competition , and one of the only products that they possess , they are still bananas . through the wto will chaotic conditions avoided because , at the wto rules will be created , with which all the interested parties can be reconciled . it is no exaggeration to say that this matter among the in all the institutions utmost attention has caused . we must blindly towards the livelihood of farmers environments , by giving priority buy their products . mr president , the rapporteur deserves our thanks and respect for his report on this difficult issue . again i thank the chairman of the parliamentary groups for them to the stubbornness and halsstarrigkeit by members from the outermost regions have agreed to make this proposal for reform in the bananensektors today discussed in parliament and the prescribed observation and can be put in good time to that in the coming days prior consultation of the council of ministers of agriculture cope with the 2001 with a new reform of the com in bananas can begin . in this debate has repeatedly stressed that the report by mr dary through the committee on agriculture and rural development was approved unanimously . ladies and gentlemen , i am privileged to inform you that a parliamentary delegation of korea to the public gallery . so that we have managed , in the council to decide for media to achieve . report ( a5-0377 / 2000 ) by mr trakatellis , on behalf of the committee on the environment on the motion for a resolution by parliament and council to lengthen certain programmes for community action in the field of public health , with the decisions nos 645 / 96 / ec , no . mr president , i just want to take this opportunity to referring to the commissioner 's comments this evening at 12.15 a.m. pointing out that amendment no 1 the commission to task decreases . ( parliament adopted the oral amendment ) amendment no 2 : parliament had in his opinion insistence and most of them again lodge should , above all the amendments which the size of the warnings , the indication of ingredients , and the protection of consumers , especially the young are concerned . there is in the eyes of some members approximately two categories of citizens : those which are protected , and those who abitur economic reasons , the risk suspend ? i would particularly like to explain that i export ban on tobacco , whose tar / nicotine content in the eu 's current maximum level exceeds , and rejected the amendments to lift these arrangements have supported . madam president , i welcome the radical proposal , as in canada footage to use in order to imposed by the ill health smoking does to demonstrate . all this seems to be welcomed , although i wish , i should like to take this opportunity to reaffirm - that many more for the illness prevention is spent . i would have preferred to see if this regulation in a regulation thereof could , because that would increase , which the citizens of the entire european union level , easier . the amendments tabled by mr zimmerling the management art market wrecking the mixing and job losses unified . i am also afraid that few living artists from this right to a share in the proceeds from the weiterveräußerung will benefit . . ( nl ) i would like to congratulate mr zimmerling for their efforts to thank him on this complicated issue has utilised . therefore , i feel compelled to oppose the directive to vote . and the stabilisation and association agreement , the cards programme and the european investment bank is not the main instruments of the contribution of the european union on economic and social development croatian pose . the indonesian government and the army have a duty to the safety of its citizens guaranteeing and their lives to be protected , irrespective of where at what do they have a dear . we must therefore as quickly as possible the instruments necessary for a more effective combating fraud involving eu funds creators . this would in the eu a single judicial area to be created where in case of this kind pinpointed . these criminal proceedings , trial conducted and the execution of decisions can be achieved . sometimes this seems to be the case . amendments nos 11 and 13 seek to the system of quotas only after ten years to evaluate and would the commission will not undertake to a tariff system propose - some of our trading partners , a tariff system should be required . as regards the preamble to akp-präferenz referring , as we are again with eur 300 per tonne okay , maintain but the word ' up ' is unnecessary . such roll-over will have on our trading partners scarcely have any chance , to be accepted . the next item is the commission statement on the eu / usa summit . clearly it is easier said than done , but we must resist the temptation to look at these summits into contact with the problems facing the day-to-day political and economic links with preoccupy . i know that madeleine albright , the american secretary of state , shares my view is . one of the main lessons was that the europeans a greater contribution to the preservation of security in europe have to make . i would be grateful if you in the spring envisaged for the communication from the point extensively incorporate break-up and beside the analysis , that of the other side of this house have called for , also make proposals would at all events , as we in the future new objectives can be achieved in the field of dialogues , in the field of foreign policy cooperation , the security policy , but also with the pragmatic themes , such as the mutual recognition agreements . i know and appreciate the everything but arms ' for everything but arms , but would ask the commission , with the forthcoming summit with an opportunity to use and the united states should be obliged to take up this initiative halfway . so we must take action to the unaccountable destinies to prevent the waits for those who like mumia abu-jamal or leonard pelletier partly for years on death row road haulage driver stuck to . this is a healthy proposals we gladly will take up . thank you , commissioner . i am afraid that i am currently in cross our own group find myself . thirdly , it must straightforward formulas for the deductions implemented , specifically reversal of the reverse charges . the first consequence is that you can do much for as long as this international framework remains unchanged . mr president , the commission would firstly point out that the present arrangements for the eu-anbieter following services in ireland are : software , data processing and computerdienste , provision of web-hosting , web-design and information services . i have always said that one of the first regulate or principles of legislators should be as follows : erlasse not laws that are unenforceable . it is in the report of the committee responsible , partly because of the committee on the environment , a number of important elements which , by means coincidence of various situations in the transport clearly too little support reproduction . at the same time , however , also for revising the agreement of several chicago of 1944 unfold in order to reorganizing on an international level to achieve . short-stay standortvorteile in one country are being paid another or from other eu countries . mr president , europe is in the field of internet use in the coming decade a leading position in the world drum . many people wondering , commissioner , why the europeans are so quick to tax and new rules on our hands are . the agreement that several chicago on this is completely out of date . i consider the introduction of a common vat system cannot be a priority and do not take the view that the introduction of a common system was long overdue . recipients of tax rates of less than 30 % achieves the usa budgetüberschüsse of several hundred billion dollars . the outweighs vorzuziehende option is to exemption from the european e-unternehmen in order to give them the same competitive conditions to give you on the american and other companies operate . active throughout the world tax competition is in the interests of citizens and business . so we need companies from outside the union for the same tax obligations by the national companies providing services for consumers to play , for the purpose of vat in one member state your election registering , with the vat rate of elected state at their transactions are applied . well , quite simply the position is absolutely not . worry about the issue of source , namely the place where the tax must be applied , and discussions about the number of countries that make queried added that the business places registering yard , as i understand quite heart-rending will , of course the us into a complaint to the wto challenge . it makes little sense that a flight from london to brussels and antiquity , for example with virgin airways entire 89 £ costs , while i found the eurostar which far fewer greenhouse gases emittiert and in which the expedition is a lot more pleasant , for the same line of 250 £ afford to . mr president , this debate are the old schreckgespenster again become apparent . furthermore , the proposals of the french presidency on taxation in the place of consumption , with the obligation of services for registering in all member states discussed . the european airlines were in relation to third country carriers disenfranchised and would make it preisgefüge for flights within the eu contrary to the prices of intercontinental flights be abused . but it seems as a result which does not become a kapitalabfluss from europe makes , only in terms of oecd and not bit by bit by einzelverhandlungen possible . i am aware that all members sometimes bickering insights . it does complexity in relation to the use macroeconomic criteria avoided . comparable or i now turn to the proposal on the mindestnormalsatz . consequently be in the icao-arbeitsgruppen nor any substantial preparatory work done by sending back to the next meeting renegotiating the agreement of several chicago decided , is unlikely . this feeling is unfortunately still today , with the public at large . but the most recent aim of this directive is to strengthen the seenotfallmanagements through the requirement for setting nothäfen , through the ban on departure for a strong sturms and through greater powers in intervened with the coastal state at sea in the event of serious verschmutzungsgefahr . the oil companies are telling us that they have a voluntary fund . i hope that the doubts and the opposition to the impulse of nice lessened , and our project succeeds . naturally we rely on you to ensure safety at sea is concerned , because it is probably aware that not week goes by , in which we are not the same point is made : " what unternehmt their meps guaranteeing safety and to modify the regulations ? ' mr president , the commission is aware of the on 8 november 2000 , the british government has announced plans , which included the introduction of a special payment for the use of roads include , for instance a vignette which from british as well as nichtbritischen transporters are equal alike to pay if it is the roads in the uk cover . secondly , if the minister to what he had originally desired , proposing that foreign lorries to tax in order to kraftverkehrsunternehmen of one 's own country subsidise , you will then be in breach of the european authority ? this imbalance between the an economic point of levies and taxes , that the kraftverkehrsunternehmen across the member states have to pay , distorts the conditions under which kraftverkehrsunternehmen of different nationality in the uk in competition law . as regards the use of meat-and-bone meal , for it export apply precisely these regulations , which also for the production of meat-and-bone meal apply in the european union , with insisting that , for example , specified risk material from the meat-and-bone meal to remove it , also for the law is made and on 1 march 2001 will enter into force . the jews are verräter and liar . i hope very much that we in any country in the region ascertain that education - the tolerance , not intolerance transportation . the answer given by commissioner monti , i thought . question no 37 by ( h-0900 / 00 ) : moreover , the commission . schutzzwecken a temporary unterstützungsmechanismus propose having special purpose is to the unfair korean practices within the time countered , until the end of the wto procedure is needed . this is a matter of urgency . the verwenderindustrie for koks has a total of 70 000 employees , but this product is in this sector only a very small kostenanteil of about 2 % for . question no 40 by ( h-0889 / 00 ) : we have our proposal acp virtually the same time as our member states on this . the house can also confirm that this initiative is not intended to sort out this problem , as the additional quantities , which in the community market can be made , paltry amount . these countries have given their situation unfortunately none autonomous verhandlungsmacht , so i think we can do in this case unilaterally , no concessions decisiveness . that bewilligungsverfahren from the commission for the requesting financial support will soon be completed as well as from ecpat 2001 requisite means adhered to . these are three types of activity as well . on the location of the future instance , the commission 's proposal silent . i am not sure what the honourable member is using the term ' proliferation ' appears . the question by mr berenguer fuster concerns trade marks . i regard it as a spur to establish new action and ensure that spain and the necessary as quickly as possible into practice . at the last question you have told me that spain was blame and you will do what to do belongs to them . this was a good explanation of replying to my previous question . the directive 89 / 48 / eec concerns diplomas at the end of at least three-year-old vocational training and following the sekundarstufe . subject : transport links in the nordkvark ( vasa , finland , sweden , umeå ) of the union shipping in the straits of the gulf of ( nordkvark ) , as unviable cancelled , given the shipowners do not avenues for tax-free-verkauf left . for example , in the i referred town vasa in the past two years 550 jobs in particular for tourism , perhaps even because of the opinion of the tax-free-verkaufs , degrade contexts . the proposal reflects the concern of lisbon appointed , because it is keen that the development and use of digital content to support . furthermore i call upon the commission , more efficient and more rapid implementation modalities across the hearing of proposals to develop . if we include only to companies useful subject-matter understood , particularly meteorologische and geographic information , which of course , very desirable , must we forget that the situation with the people find certain aspects harder harness , as those on the exclusively for companies useful information provision . the digital content , which is more than as a result of quantity and quality good thing standardised and limiting the cultural and social diversity . the second point which i am equally essential , is that we in the small and medium-sized enterprises that we in the start-ups thinking . turning a virtue of need to make the augury just umdrehen , our languages escape the barriers , but as bridges , as advantages discover and benefit , that is the basis for the internal market and a degree of independence . i am not going back on all the ambitions of the programme comment : creating favourable conditions for the marketing , marketing and use of digital content to the economic activity unethical , job prospects and to increase the potential of the european digital content compared with the usa wasting . consequently , it has become even more important that for the multi-lingual production of content in europe 's right propitiate conditions . some of them are to be very valuable , but in other legislation better repealed . the differing positions are now setting out the vote is tonight is not about , and if the view of the largest group in parliament tomorrow no objections to be taken , then i considered it is much more appropriate , in tomorrow 's vote , if the members of this house vollzählig are present , a motion putting instead of that tonight as well . mr president , honourable members , ladies and gentlemen , increasing numbers of people in the european union caused by noise harassed . as to when the evening , when the night begins , member states can choose . i therefore welcome though the commission proposal , but do not think we have an initial and i think it hesitant step . so it will reduce and prevent the noise in the future a substantial part of europe 's policy to be . the group of the european united left supports readily his proposals , although we would welcome a little further than trodden going to articulate solutions to them and take action against those who bursting with noise more money propose . however , i would refer to the gezänk , upon which recently in the committee behind , in addition to on and on the scenes and now today strife about that . so i will not conceal the fact that my country enormous difficulties which will have vote in favour of the commission 's proposal that unless it includes a sufficient flexibilitätsmechanismus to which our ancestors had lebensgewohnheiten down by the spaniards themselves as well as our foreign festivities so estimated , to continue with . i commend the report , of course , the commission 's proposal on this house . secondly , we daughter directives on the quality standards . i fully support applies the need to harmonise noise indicators and the bewertungsmethoden , the whole issue of noise mapping , compiling of action plans for proper reduction of noise and the protection quiet areas and the enlargement of the margin for public information . secondly uses this proposed a new approach to assess the gesamtlärmsituation in europe , on a number of the noise troubled persons affected . 1-3 to , 14 , 18 , 27 , 30 , 34 , 35 and 43 countenance . the following amendments are in principle or in part acceptable : no . furthermore , additives generally not for not processed foods are used , and that it was in this case concerns - who have no dealing went through that into a substantive change its originalzustands makes . mr president , the committee on the environment , public health and consumer policy , we in the ppe group for the lannoye report voted moreover , the fully meets our disapproval . no one says so . the next item is the debate on the report ( a5-372 / 2000 ) by mr staes , on behalf of the european parliament delegation in the conciliation committee concerning the conciliation committee draft directive from the european parliament and council to amend directive 95 / 53 / ec council with rules for the conduct of official feed controls . by the french presidency , and i an unequivocal wink , a very clear message that a ' so far and no further ' procedure . in lengthy negotiations was well in the conciliation committee a compromise reached , which is acceptable , assurances that defences . the commission have been taken , as long stay in place to meet with a different decision replace them , and that the member states commit itself to the experts from the commission to unstinting support during the investigation and on-the-spot checks to be granted . i welcome this legislation . the structural funds for the union , especially the esf , and the resources which the finance ministers are giving , must always on the development of vulnerable and poorer areas of society to focus . the european cities are important economic , political and socio-economic centres . a clear legislation and careful management of its compliance are other possibilities . the commission , the european parliament , for the considerable support that has taken in this proposal is , and for the many amendments grateful . in view of the nature of the action the commission can accept amendments nos i say this because it is a very both timely issue , and they are surely agree that a day goes by the topic does not for all sorts of reasons , justified or not , however , mostly incorrect in the press is handled . the maximalisten want innovation and progress blockers , while the minimalisten also recommend , only to a great danger to health and environment of the precautionary principle recourse , i.e. above a yet unspecified eve , while still nobody knows how this provision must be taken . the explaining the respective roles and competences is an essential condition for restoring requisite public confidence in science and to the makers - to us , the politicians . in these cases , precaution a sicherheitsspielraum relaxed . we wanted , action within the wto , perhaps a provision which would ensure that we in the context of the wto is possible to other commitments to jobs , for example , the predicated on a multilateral environmental agreement require obligations - to the scope of the precautionary principle to be extended . there is also , the precautionary principle more rechtsstabilität to give up with a view to be set against standard to anchor . the way of life is that , with these risks and insecurities mature policy . sometimes it is setting it too much self-destruction and banalisiert it thus , revert to insufficient , as our feelings invokes . this applies to about phthalates in toys . we have the exciting to , toy in sweets , eis and other esswaren to ban . the same applies to the commission on the need for an in-depth previous risk analysis . in the resolution calls upon the commission to apply its guidelines and the principle of safety in elaborating its legislative proposals and in all its policies always leads to take into account when required . a general de-minimis-schwelle cannot be liking . the first award the sakharov prize to a human rights organisation , which shall fight within the union will , reaffirmed the european parliament officially that any breach of rights without conditions must be combated . madam president , ladies and gentlemen , first and foremost i would like to initiative ' basta ya ' that parliament 's gratitude for the honorable admiration for which we are receiving now . and it does not only murder . i would therefore ask for me to follow and to trust . ( parliament adopted the legislative resolution ) madam president , if the house i may , i would like to make my an oral amendment 51 deliver . report ( a5-0334 / 2000 ) by mr garcía-margallo y marfil , on behalf of the committee on economic and monetary affairs on the commission 's communication : taxation of flugkraftstoff [ com ( 2000 ) 110 - c5-0207 / 2000 - 2000 / 2114 ( cos ) ] this agreement is in favour of certain companies appealing to the environment and democracy , it is anti . the most dramatic event since our last budgetary debates , of course , the bse crisis . this would clearly against the letter and the spirit of above resolutions of the heads of state and government in the question breach . parliament has successfully a number of key priorities could establish , among other greater efforts in the fight against unemployment and poverty , a number of important environmental and equal opportunities , etc. we are against the onslaught of conservative side of the life programme and to the european women ´ s lobby voted . the volume of for kosovo earmarked funds clearly poses a legitimate question of whether this region yugoslavia 's for 2001 originally provided 350 million euros really can take up . there is no reason to a certain distributionsform tax benefits to be granted . a final date is the players in the postal market significant signs and national monopolies being able to become better at deregulation preparing . there is a whole philosophy of the postal service , as a result of the particular characteristics of each state explain instils and there has its roots - with a single , possibly with just a few votes decision taken ausradieren ? the commission 's proposed limit of ecu 50 grammes with a preisgrenze tune of zweieinhalbfachen of public tarifs are really to drastically and would have devastating effects on the providers of universalpostdiensten wont . as a result , we all of the ambition to which it wants , clearly and firmly reject . . ( sv ) we do not feel that the eu tackles the issue of the postal sector should concern , even if the proposals in the committee significantly better than the original commission proposal . dary report ( a5-0374 / 2000 ) however , we feel that the small producers who on her work pflanzungen , without anyone exploiting , against the consequences of war safeguarded and their income independently of the market uncertainties are upheld . as exercising the right to freedom of expression in article 10 duties and responsibilities brings , can you conditions , reductions or strafdrohungen being subjected to . given that the numerical terms wertmäßig 5 % of community gdp and 1.4 million jobs professionals , one can only welcome this initiative . under these conditions , the us their hegemony in this zukunftsmarkt precisely the coherence and their unity as a result . i also hope that this distribution of power by applying the subsidiaritätskriteriums go as far that the regions and the autonomous communities their status within the union can be retained . we are very pleased about this . for example in the abovementioned trade negotiations that national parliaments your previous rights to ratify strips , and a country which the council in a minority , is no longer say no , if it during the negotiations his interests breached does . before that we have repeatedly asked , and the took place in nice makes it abundantly clear that a much broader agenda perhaps had meant that , this year , no results were , with disastrous consequences for enlargement . - in terms of fundamental importance of what it at the european council in nice to be applied , must of there being been where recognition to baden-württemberg alone . finally , the intention of this parliament is to control over matters of taxation , social security to gain . these throughout long night gestrickten decisions of the council provide a solid station ; they have palpable holes , through the terms of transparency , identitätsstiftung , more democracy , including the people or reformbewusstsein slippery fail . we therefore need to its own conclusions as a result of a compromise prestige , at that neither clearcut victor yet clearly unterlegene , . indeed , the influence of national democracies is falling , because the right of veto on restricts and the european parliament more power is transferred . it is what you must give the report , after the notion that on flugkraftstoff remains restricted , will be voting in favour , because that would make tickets for us becoming cheaper and more so , it befall this transport can travel . " " rein omitted from the dwellings along , you could be a blumentopf on the head traps . the complexity and diversity of technological change and the structural änderungsprozesse urgently require the involvement of all lovers of local and regional level in the development partnerships , embedded in the preparation of strategic concepts of regional policy for each region . that is why we must strive to ensure that everything to prevent what these three important prerequisites muzzle or could compromise . one might say that the innovation for all parties involved in the production process in the field of chances lie . the gap between rich and underprivileged regions in the advances in technology is significantly greater than in gross domestic product . as a main argument testify to the bureaucrats notoriously claim that there is a risk of mistakes . i am not sure whether a direct consequence of this risi-initiative was that today the european budget three von signed , but i would like to see this weihnachtspräsent which we decide to continue to give women would benefit . it is also wrong to the budget in a issues like this reducing , this is pilot projects , for new ideas in the local and urban development , with more than acceptable outcome - on the basis of locally so popular community programmes such as interreg and urban initially envisaged . as mr rack very well expressed , i raised the regional policy and the cohesion policy never as a kind hand-outs of the poorest regions understood it and will never accept as such . for that reason , i respect for the current negotiations on the eppd , apart from innovative actions , and i am speaking here on mainstream - insistence that every programmplanungsdokument a regionalisation plan for the access to the information society contains and überprüfe water quality , apart from the scope of this regionalprogramms , particularly as back-to-back smes , colleges and even holdings is concerned . mrs schroedter , mr izquierdo collado and mr ortuondo larrea have rightly raised this question of funding . the price of schiffneubauten are dramatically in recent years have gone and have 1999 under this policy south korea 's low . the committee had to vote separately , in order to ensure that this item on the agenda for today 's debate about . this concept is , moreover , in accordance with the treaty . my time is not sufficient to into detail . we nevertheless regard the commission 's proposal , with its support for research and development , the case before the wto on the practised in korea , where with prices will work - who are affected by the cheaper , and the possibility of übergangsbeihilfen , while on the complaint not been settled , implies , for a perhaps more or less vulnerable resort , albeit in a way out . it must korea , preferably within the oecd , by anti-dumping measures boosted pressurised them . this means that we are affected by unemployment and the other visitors do your actual business with the dockyards . in my view , it provides an excellent analysis of the shipbuilding sector in europe which correspond to reality . this process is not rapid results , and should go through all stages will , it would take that up to two years . the mechanisms were to be encouraged , until this decision is a wto procedure . i am sure we all now unites entity , for freedom in europe with energy and vigour to defend , but i would like to say that we in spain over the solidarity of meps and commitment needed . it schwamm in may in the waters of , as his nuklearherz worrying evidence of damage made . alarming would be if we given this situation cannot earliest would act . in both , we point to the need to emphasise that the two member states concerned , the united kingdom and spain , in close cooperation 's best solution for the repair of u-boots searching , referring , of course , the public is kept informed . we have allegations of directors of the british kriegsflotte belongs to which the sinking no serious matter , and others , that is exactly the opposite direction and according to which the damage is considerably and tedious and complex reparations required to do . the house will know that you would be that , if it might have done so that now forgive my role , in her position to reply . the commission is looking to the plan to manage . there have been doing so , let us therefore take account of the real facts about the possibilities that the british authorities and of gibraltar to do with the problem should be ready . calm cooperation is that of our union used method . the british government is just as we recently saw the russian government , than at any of their submarines into an accident occurred . mr president , i would also like our spanish colleagues in the light of the recent terrorist mordanschlags of eta my deepest sympathy to them . the commission was in your informative reply by two months ago , in today 's response so responsibly , it admitting , although the proposal for a resolution of the group of people 's party did not recognised this , we alongside other bagatellisierungen the matter has been hampered , we agree with that . chief secretary peter caruana has the right to do when they do panel of experts anwies to him directly to report back . this remains our opinion , the kohärenteste position , which the interests and the safety of all interested parties ideally safeguards . b5-0908 / 2000 by mrs maij-weggen and mr posselt , on behalf of the ppe-de group ; 1980 identified by the unhcr 3.5 million refugees care . today we are honouring the unhcr and all the humanitarian workers . mr president , the commission wishes to have the support which unhcr during the 50th anniversary of its establishment by parliament to naturally support . i would like to make a general problem of speaking , going to refer to the implementation of a member . b5-0909 / 2000 by mrs pack and others , on behalf of the ppe-de group ; and the last question i would like to address concerns the tragic events of the border between serbia and kosovo . there is one milosovic and not to parteitage in belgrade . and it is also kosovan a dahingehendes reorientation necessary for the populations respect each other , rather than continues to each other to bekriegen . without going even the praises sung wanting to we can also say that the european union quick to the new situation reacted . b5-0915 / 2000 by mr medina ortega and others , on behalf of the pse group ; b5-0918 / 2000 by mrs napoletano and others , on behalf of the pse group ; the chilean government pledged to that general pinochet in chile trial could give , and in fact , general pinochet now his immunity wiped out and the judicial authorities have proceedings taken against him . please allow me to remind you that it is important that this joint resolution , as we have a pinochet in chile is to think about what we did not , when he was in britain accommodated . i say this in the knowledge about the fact that this be the grundüberzeugungen between the parties to the efa and greens in this house are . mr president , before i make my speech starts , i too would like to echo the sentencing of the attentats affiliate which an elected representatives , member and local councillor of the people 's party in catalonia , in spain , have cost the lives . that is why i am pleased that my group and , i believe , the majority in the house will not incite instils which show in fact , at the present crisis exploit . their lives are at the highest risk . the league of human rights has been concluded , your premises versiegelt and its president , moktar trifi , is , as you have just heard , for 25 december summoned before the court . human rights , gewerkschaftsmitglieder , academics , journalists and students reports on continual harassment by the authorities . condition is very serious indeed . daily harassment and that zusammenschlagen of democrats really are the rule . i hope that the chilean judicial systems in this case continue its independence and effectiveness prove it . we know that pursue heads of mission in the european union 's political internal situation very closely . i wish to conclude the important role of the european parliament mentioning that through visits by parliamentarians and public debates like today 's public awareness and to step up the dialogue on these issues significantly . laurent gbagbo is a genuine policy for concord behest , accepting the idea of ivorität exiled , the racist constitutional changes and democratic elections carries out where no candidate is precluded , otherwise we risk of secession and civil war there is increasing . mr president , for months , the news of the ivory coast a reasoned unrest within the european public and equivalent concern in this parliament encountered . preconditions is that no-one feels shut out that this by the military official supreme court is abolished , the head of state very clearly in the process of restoration of democracy unprofitable and the comments made by the commission to national reconciliation are heard . i believe this concept of ivorität perfectly right to be . now , about half a dozen copies of the president obtain . mr president , on behalf of the green withdraw our resolution also backwards . mr president , i agree with what mr posselt on . ( the minutes were approved ) the member states to senior citizens new concepts attain and that both the problem of the necessary care as well as the issue of recovery of costs tackle , especially on the disabled are concerned , their families winds are unable to the resulting pressures entirely alone to bear . mr president , it is my great pleasure to the rapporteur , on behalf of the greens / european free alliance , on the excellent report to be congratulated . thanks providing medical care and care , better information , wohnverhältnisse and pensions life nowadays increasingly people longer . it is mainly the governments of member states and the governments of individual states , regions and municipalities , containing many suggestions somewhat can start . the foundation stone for those living occurs in the family placed where any person was brought aufwächst . very often it is that people in recent years in life very difficult unwell and completely powerless , and the help of all needs . lastly , i would like to refer to medical care about that . we were also told that women must be removed from the world of work to ensure that the men have jobs . at first sight could be at a disadvantage perceive that many . we are going to do so foul must find a way . the countless active old should use every motivate , for a company to quibble , in the intergenerational solidarity is not slogan . these measures must then to the respective situations and features on the quality of life and the financial independence are adapted . only joint ongoing effort can help us . we need to discretionary powers for individual preferences and judgments give . anyone who objects regain which our fellow disappears here and then it should please zurückbringen - especially the glasses , as mrs flemming was behind you , mr fatuzzo . finally , opportunities for measures to outermost regions and their logo again explicitly are incorporated in the text . to refer is also highlights the animal and environmentally friendly know what production methods are used in europe . so i am happy that we also this week the european parliament as a arbeitskreis biotechnology have been set up . of course , these institutional campaigns the approved advertising campaigns specifically on the part of the major supermarket chains only supplement . if parliament 's proposals were to be implemented the three times by a majority here have gone through , but here again becoming apparent the powerlessness of the european parliament - that the stillegungsflächen with pulses to clover grass grow could and the feeding permits , then we would have more grundfutter , more eiweißfutter wont . it is up to presumably manufacturers , retailers and professional organisations and not the european union . we need to ask : why do we in the past there have not , the industry in the european union to ensure that disposable funds be used . of course , if we food production and able to stimulate the better for the environment , which are animal health and recognise the reside in the world market and , sell well , we are doing absolutely the right to the common agricultural policy has been undertaken . regarding amendments nos 9 and 11 , where the creation of a specific management committee is calling for , and on amendments nos 7 , 19 , 23 , 27 where further verfahrensänderungen is required , is to say that the commission hopes to coherent verfahrensbestimmungen to follow . all those who say that it is indulge in europe or schmecken associated with it , are correct . mr president , it is scientifically proven controlled weinkonsum the best prevention of cancer , herzinfarkte or alzheimer 's disease is , and i could , many other diseases enumerate . i would like to thank the rapporteur for his work praise .
