we know very well that the current treaties do suffisent not and that it will be necessary in future to develop a structure more efficient and dissimilar to the union , stature more constitutional which indicates clearly where are the responsibility of member states and what are the competences of the union . messages of concern to begin with the difficulties of economic and social that we traversons , despite a growth supported , fruit of years of effort on the part of all our citizens . the current situation , particularly insupportable for many businesses in transport indépendantes and for agriculture , must be améliorée . reaching agreement on the procedure is a good thing in itself , but we must ensure that this system would not servir de force of frappe policy . they too have now understandings clear rights that they must comply with . i can support his warning against the relapse , which seeks rely on methods intergovernmental . we are very much to want a union of states nations . the rapporteurs have stressed the quality of the debate and also the need to go further . of course , i can only the rejoining . i thank likewise all those who gave me aimablement reproché of not making this speech earlier - in the latter , i would say that , before i make a speech , we must learn , ascertain , évaluer forces at work , because the briefing policy must always be realistic and close to the reality and objectives that we fixons . i would like you parte of this closer cooperation in order to give some examples of the new potentialité european . the vote will take place today at 12.30 p.m . the commission cannot accept amendment no 12 . i voterai in favour of the draft regulation . the reports by the court of auditors no european cessent elsewhere to meet these sous-estimations , from greece for portugal . consequently , we have not voted in favour of this report . according to the défenseurs of these bus , they are not only fondest market and can be spent the whole world , but they are also more écologiques because their use of fuel in passager is less high . the role of the ' benchmarking ' in terms of diffusion of best practice throughout the eu is also emphasized . a charter constraining and overall , listing of rights that should be fully respected , is likely to cause difficulties in a stade ultérieur . these i would like to thank both for their tremendous commitment . we do not believe not , however , that this dialogue will already be achevé in nice in less than three months , and the only reason enough to explain our refusal to accept the proposal for inscrire the charter into the treaties on the occasion of the nice summit . the group csu within the european parliament is happy that the present draft charter of fundamental rights rassemble and rende high-profile fundamental rights which have citizens vis-à-vis the organs and institutions of the eu . it is in the image of europe liberal-minded which is being achieved . indeed , i would have liked the freezing of the charter , so that we can continue to work , as proposed by a great deal of non-governmental organisations of various eu countries . ( a5-0248 / 00 ) by mr queiró , on hungary ( com ( 1999 ) 505 - c5-0028 / 2000 - 1997 / 2175 ( cos ) ) ; i would therefore also you propose that parliament will present anymore , next year 's report general but confines itself to reports in national to show that we attachons by a further différenciée negotiations . i think it is then that , on the basis of the work that has been undertaken by the présidences preceding and by the commission , the french presidency will be able , at least i hope , to provide , at the nice summit , a view pretty clear from the accession process . i have said and i have no difficulty in the restate here , the french presidency will éludera any difficulties which are appearing , which does not mean , of course , that we will have the time and resources to deal with each of them . this question is , of course , perfectly legitimate , but we must respond deduced correctly and accurate . enlargement is a broad perspective that we must tackle together with many of générosité and with vision . all the results of the intergovernmental conference does répondraient superseded by the gigantesque pressure that puts enlargement in terms of adjustment . the second change is important that we are faced with which europe must adapt is the accélération foudroyante regarding the development of economic progress on a global market and competition worldwide . quarto . it follows on from that the principle that countries which have started off the process has a good chance to catch up with those who have begun sooner . in the areas in which investments considerable and long-term are required to fulfil the requirements of the eu , we should bear in mind that the current members took part in such cases , sollicité long transition periods . with regard to security of frontiers and the fight against crime interviennent also our standards and the benefits of european cooperation . regardons the reciprocal trade that there are currently between the european union and the countries of central and eastern europe . i was content that commissioner starts at last to speak about informing the public to tell her that the fears which have been mentioned , has no of raison d ' être . but one thing is clear - and i am pleased that mr verheugen 's has once again soulignée : it cannot be a period of transition in terms of respect for democratic rules . in this respect , we need the help of the commission , because even if the will is there , the munitions are sometimes défaut . it is essential to ensure that we can , as the european union , we set targets in carrying out of our own reformes in-house . however , we do not agree with some aspects and questions of essential . this is detrimental to the european union , with its future autonomous vis-à-vis america 's north and also to defence and security policy in europe , because it creates risks with russia and other countries . we hope that there will results and that we are not to refer to another intergovernmental conference which must be done to ensure that enlargement can take place . i serai brief as i have indeed been , since i have given three minutes of speaking time at my maiden speech . it is very important and in this respect , i am pleased that the commission is working towards an information campaign which commissioner verheugen wills , both large and decentralised . but - and this will be my last word , because i want to make myself quite clear : i am not a pessimiste in this respect , i do staking out " small bras ' , i would like an option fiercely towards enlargement - to be credible , we must also be serious , we must also be aware , we must also be able to garner the accession of the peoples of the peoples of the candidate countries and of our peoples . at the moment i cannot see any need to discuss the financial perspective in relation to enlargement . i cannot now express it in connection with any of them ! moreover , it is for the same reason that they have also expressed the view of joining the european union . we shall now give the floor to the various rapporteurs . i have seen entrust the work of rapporteur about estonia . as a member of the party modéré , i am extremely économe when it comes to tax-payers ' money . only then , i semble-t-il , pourriez-vous you make an idea of what the lettons have done in recent years . this is not enough ; the whole of the strategy must be more tourné towards the citizens . lithuania has a full potential appréciable of economic growth sustainably . by all the more wide-ranging and it relates to the cooperation of the european union with the federation of russia . i now turn to the next item weak : the support of the public , both inside and outside the european union . as a result of a policy of fiscal intelligente , the investments directs strangers come montaient , last year , in addition to 5,45 billion euros . we should not be immiscer , surtout pas we in the allemands ! democracy slovak is développe deduced stable , which has not always been the case . i would propose , in this speech to stress and reconvene the six points in the development of the situation hungarian which deserve to be put in exergue with the prospect of accession to the european union . i am pleased to note that this issue has been envisagé in the report ceo on enlargement presented by mr brok . it is also and above all the case in the field of nuclear , where the concerns are legitimate , about the safety of nuclear and environnementale are likely to be exploitées by the lobby anti-nucléaire . the formation of a group of high-level is something that i recommande to my colleagues . the report which i have the honour of you subjugating and has also been adopted unanimously in committee , notes that the part of the territory contrôlée by the authority lawful remplit criteria polices in copenhagen . to this end , a role clef reviendra , without prejudice , of course , the role characteristic of the commission , in our high representative for the cfsp , mr javier solana . however , the problem headline which malta should face is that the government and opposition jugent unequally the accession process and that the european union is committed to the fluidité of that process . even between the usa and the mexique , levels are more survivors . that is why we are discussing , within the internal market , on a strategy réfléchie , flexible and to the extent of the challenge . however , i should also enabled us to state my respect for the citizens of the countries of central and eastern europe which eurent courage in ten years ago , in descendre within the rue and who have contributed to branle this process . the information society is important for industry , old or new . we also cannot be left to éblouir by the pourcentages of community law transposé into national legislation . but the 10 new countries in europe eastern miss out on such oncle of america . this also applies , and that is dégradant , for the transportation of animals vivants towards the abattoirs . for any legislation majeure , we envisageons now to impose an assessment of the effects on health . my report for opinion must also speak of the european union and remarking that funds europe for the regional development cannot continue to be octroyés on the basis of a simple division comptable between regions . elmar brok has begun justified in his speech by pointing out that we are all bénéficiaires of enlargement , in particular to which we situons of this côté-ci from the border external front . the development of transport fluvial inner will be essential for reasons écologiques , because we must ducking quantités freight from the roads , and if we are unable to transporter on rail , we must use the mechanisms fluviales . we have also talked about egocentricity and even to populisme , and the fall of the course of the euro has certainly not helped to improve things . the message we want to convey to the candidate countries reads : ' do you laissez not dérouter by the scale of the reports and documents which lie ahead of you . unfortunately , there is currently too many parties who have lost their idéologie and which evidenced by means of a idéalisme inadequate and a matérialisme excessive . if it is différer entitled to acquisition of terrains and logements to use familial , différons-le . it is up to now , but is certainly menacée by the lack of transparency bureaucratique and the resistance manifeste , quoique not public , of certain governments . where are , moreover , the millions of jobs promised by the maastricht treaty ? while we are about to revise the treaties , some member states are already in a new reform . the vast majority of enquêtes international on this subject are exigencies of gains for the whole macroeconomic , linked to enlargement . however , exception creature of minorities insignifiantes , any political group is putting into question the main objective of the common slovène , which is to become members as soon as possible in the european union . if the european union is élargissait quickly , there should be the désintégrer steeply . it is proposed in the position on the enlargement of the eldr . in my view , it is clear that the regime institutionnel prescrit has many implications long-range on the health of orphelins . i would ask you therefore to support the amendments along these lines . and even we in hommes political europeans do not understand why not quite well the process of negotiation . cyprus will become a kind of pont towards the countries of the region . i would like to négociateurs the continuation of the success of their work in this area , important . a second form of communication is also essential between our countries and for the candidate countries , so that they explain what is the european union . we cannot be allowed to lose even more of the élan which existait early years 90 . mr president , first of all , as rapporteur socialists for the report on the romania , i would like to congratulate him on his excellent work . it is for the institutions , for the member states , for us all , we set up this challenge , also vis-à-vis the fears of our own citizens , and to return to the breathtaking - the european ambition and a vision of pères fondateurs of europe . i have unhappily the impression that , despite all the fine words and the numerous chapters that the council has examined thoroughly implemented , this enlargement process does not support either mu by an energy policy is needed . many eu countries have affronté problems similar at some point in their development and can adviser bulgaria in order to help it to surmonter those whom it has to face up to now . democracy is not just a question of majorités . it is also a question codecision route to minorities . the candidate countries must be found on an equal footing and their accession should not dépendre than their own development . at the same time , we should acknowledge the efforts consentis by countries such as lithuania which rattrapent , so to speak , the time lost . we therefore do well to extend our system of rights and freedoms until rumania and that is another reason to be done valoir within the framework of the debate bemoans with the european public . however , it is a matter on which the ralliement being made , namely that of enlargement . my group therefore supports the curtailment of periods of transition in the field of environment with a maximum of five years . mr president , we must give a élan positive for enlargement . the debate is certainly paved with regard to the order in which these countries will join , because it will also examine the state of avancement with their reforms in-house . i welcome the report is a very positive about slovenia and efforts considerable work in that country to meet the copenhagen criteria . as the head of delegation , i was able to make relying on many occasions , like the commissioner . in my opinion , the proposal is worthy of being taken into account . these forms of violence and exploitation of women must be henceforth condamnées and combattues across the board , both within the eu and in the accession countries . in conclusion , i would like to seize this opportunity to look joindre in many confrères , which i share the pensées and concerns , and emphasising the need to look at last attentively to the question of the borders of europe and , flowing from the scope of its enlargement , as opportunité , for the european parliament , to rédiger a report special about this . the minutes of thursday yesterday was distribué . thank you . we happens from time to other recalling correctly in this chamber , that a people 's europe must be a europe in which community legislation is protecting their rights as it suits them . i shall put to the vote the request to report on the committee on legal affairs and the internal market . we know that these substances and products indésirables are very rarement of substances on the toxicité violente ; but it is a question of substances that are accumulent eventually within the body which have a duration of living long , such as dioxins , the aflatoxines and heavy metals such as cadmium , lead and mercury . it is not possible to find the perpetrators . if we autorise this dilution , we must at least in notifier services monitoring and it is important to state publiquement that these dilutions exist because this problem must be made public and make up for public debate . we must put in evidence in is as follows : the dioxin crisis was the result of acts criminals contravening the regulations already in existence . mr president , i should like to thank my colleagues who have spoken before me . it was a impérieuse necessity . for example , for the flour to poisson , the value boundary is different from that which is proposed for products originating in animal unreported seafaring . it is time to rompre with an interpretation fallacieuse the principle of subsidiarity , which seeks to every day further enhance the tutelle in brussels on our nations . following the example of the rapporteur , i believe that all these measures are justified , as it is appropriate to consider the case of these substances which she refers - which are not toxin per se , but which are increasing the toxicité quantities . unfortunately , a good piece of knowhow ancestral , for common sense paysan , have perdus , in this ère of farming industry where animals are no more than units of production and commodities . the new rules will regrouper , harmonisation and simplification of prescriptions sanitaires very detailed and complexes who were previously éparpillées among many directives . the number of people who want to hear precisely what are the composants is , in my recherches , relatively limited . secondly , the farmers , who are the producers of feed materials for feedingstuffs subissent already have a sea-change . in future , we must sideline some much more conspicuous by their products of basis . the dédommagement is necessary , even though it is clear that the farmers themselves are also very soucieux the well-being of their cattle . amendment no 18 propose explicitly to include water in the definition of feedstuffs . on the basis of these various évaluations , the commission will propose to member states adequate measures to restrict the presence of substances involved in animal feed . in view of the amendments submitted to the adoption of this house , i am grateful to parliament for its support for the proposal . to sum up , therefore , the commission can accept unreservedly 15 of the 27 amendments tabled . i pars assumption is that this time , they do parviendront step . the commission has promised that they are travaillerait and it has also announced that this list is not ready tomorrow . farmers must simply pretences - and this , at least on request and under form of pourcentages - everything that contiennent these compound feedingstuffs and in what quantities . in conclusion , i would like to warmly thank the rapporteur , mr graefe zu baringdorf , and mrs roth-behrendt for their reports and hope that the council adoptera here a constructive attitude , so that we can achieve a system transparent about the declaration of feed . all this , of course , because of the tragedy of bse that has been a real novel , on a number of chapters . the products toxic , which affectent the health of humans and animals , are not acceptable . but commençons through the points upbeat . the proposal under discussion is the beginning of a series of initiatives that are appuient on the white paper on food safety . thank you very much , commissioner . ( parliament adopted the resolution ) report ( a5-0248 / 2000 ) by astonishment queiró , on behalf of the committee on foreign affairs , human rights , common security and defence policy , on the application for membership of hungary in the european union and the state of negotiations [ com ( 1999 ) 505 - c5-0028 / 2000 - 1997 / 2175 ( cos ) ] report ( a5-0247 / 2000 ) by mrs nicholson of winterbourne , on behalf of the committee on foreign affairs , human rights , common security and defence policy , on the application for membership of the romania in the european union and the state of negotiations [ com ( 1999 ) 510 - c5-0033 / 2000 - 1997 / 2171 ( cos ) ] thirdly and finally , and this is perhaps the paves the harder , the council must reach agreement on any new arrangements institutionally , which enables the community 's fonctionner effectively , efficiently and democratically after enlargement . even if we approve of the principles of article 13 , it is clear that the legislation derived from which the european union in tire is sometimes very far away , and that there is no reason to reject the applicant states the right to the differences in culture . let me conclude by insisting on the fact that the enlargement process must be in a progressive , at the pace of the adaptation of the candidate countries . . ( es ) in the context emotive and in the light of the reservations which have started to make itself heard about the enlargement of the european union , it is important that parliament poses a gesture politics clearly in favour of it . . the european union , since its inception , has vocation to rassembler peoples . the criteria of the council in copenhagen in 1993 , with regard to democratisation and the ability to support competition tightening up in guise of ' acquis communautaire ' , the règne of a capitalisme sauvage and destructeur . a fuite forward in the enlargement in such circumstances , threatens to speed up the dérives populists and fascisantes which pointent here and there . the agenda for this sitting contains precisely a report which deals with equal opportunities between men and women , who illustrates once again , the situation médiocre of the acquis communautaire in this area . that would indeed dénier entry , within the framework of european poland 's copernic and jean-paul ii , hungary martyrisée in 1956 to budapest or of the capital symbol , prague , when the democracies populaires défenestraient the head of state and écrasaient the people of jan palach , immolé for freedom . a europe which is more extensive , the tâches and the homework more ' , has need of financial resources more important . i seized the opportunity to express my salutations for the elderly and the pensioners of estonia , in espérant that attention be occupe of their resources in existence within the european union . i therefore see no reason why latvia is not recognised inside the european union if it continues to grow as quickly once and for the union will procedurally the conversion of its institutional structure and its policies to cope with enlargement . i therefore see no reason for that lithuania is not recognised inside the european union if it continues to grow as quickly once and for the union will procedurally the conversion of its institutional structure and its policies to cope with enlargement . action is also evident in the field of environment , with the implementation of the ' funds nationally as protection del environment ' and implementing the principle of ' pollueur-payeur ' . by doing stir poland in the home municipality , the european union will proofs of justice in regard to the new arrivante : justice which it has been too short . i hope that the czech republic rejoindra union quickly . . ( en ) i welcome the report queiró on the application for membership of hungary in the european union and i share most of the conclusions that tire pohjamo . i hope that bulgaria rejoindra europe on a future pitched too lointain . report poos ( a5-0249 / 2000 ) this is a positionnement fair and balanced that the council of ministers must take into serious consideration . i hope , incidentally , that the negotiations menées under the égide un may end up in order to ensure that the people cypriots grecque and turkish benefit , together with bienfaits from accession as part of the republic réunifiée . . ( en ) i welcome much of the report poos on the candidature of cyprus to join in the european union . however , we , the consumers , we situons at stade ultimate from the food chain and are therefore the réceptacle end of détournements and the contrefaçons food . it is particularly keen to implement , at european level , and in a practical , food safety for the étable up to the table , or ranging from the fourche until the fourchette . it is precisely because we are in favour of the development of relations of cooperation , which really fraternelles and between partners truly equal , between all the countries of the world , as we did not intend , through our vote of cautionner a mascarade . the council was informed parliament before the vote in committee , but only just before it , écartant and deliberately any chance of réexaminer question with me or with parliament . in my report , i demand a more broad representation and involvement of ngos , increased responsibility with regard to the european parliament , the establishment of an annual report which will have to be debated by parliament , a degree of transparency the highest possible , the promotion of the memory of the past as instrument for fighting prejudices and the recognition of discrimination multifaceted . at the same time , the interests justifiés workers must be taken into account . as a supreme responsibility lies with the social partners as regards the arrangements for discrimination on the place of work , they are the most scrape together for joint solutions practices . répondant to my request , jenny was venue should stand as a coordinatrice group 's access charter . practicality , because the guidelines and action programmes incitent , firstly , the member states to combat discrimination on the basis of the same principles and , secondly , the commission to play its role as gardienne agreements , but also of guide them in the debate on social affairs . although the legal basis libère appropriations for further action préparatoires , their funding from within this category could lead to a reduction in appropriations allocated to other policies . ladies and gentlemen , we have before us a proposal for a framework directive is necessary but insufficient , and we shall have the opportunity to improve the mechanisms once that a certain amount of time for implementation will exist écoulé . i hope that the commission , in the light of this new directive , if intéressera of outskirts of discrimination based on the grounds of sex . i congratulate the commission , as well as the authors ' reports . i am satisfaite in the opinion of the mann report aimed at enabling the organizations in bedrock ideological to ask , if necessary , on staffing requirements in the embauche bearing on this basis . the rapidité with which the institutions have made use of new powers of the amsterdam prouve , commissioner , that the european union canning always his status as a pioneer in terms of equal opportunities , and that is why i would like to thank very much the european commission . the fact that there is in our society by discriminations in natures various confirms the importance of the action programme on when , in terms of the report by mr cashman . mr president , on behalf of the list bonino , i would like to express the effarement that we are faced with the way in which europe and the member states address the issue of discrimination , the racisme and the xénophobie . commissioner peut-il explaining why does the commission takes no account of this aspect ? the second issue that i have to address is that the ngos , as important as it may be , are invitées to deal with the implementation regardless of their size , by their nature and actions that they mènent . the liberal group and democratic evaluated all this positively and particularly the work of parliament who have sought to highlight , also and above all , on the prevention of phenomenon and not just the good practices . this is a challenge for us all , because we jugeons other on a first impression . mr president , fighting and legislate against discrimination is acknowledge that they do exist and even that they are so many of them , ' légalisées ' because banalisées . firstly , the cnuced , the conference of the united nations for trade and development , has put into 1963 in geneva , the principle of inequities compensatrices , thus discrimination . in fact , information and awareness raising points in this respect significance paradigm , they must be an element déclenchant and servir to inculquer a new mentalité , a new way of thinking and for being so that these prejudice still répandus so as diffuse within the population to be fully éradiqués and that a genuine parité is guaranteed in terms of laws between all the citizens . it is important , therefore , to make progress with the two legislative initiatives débattues today , with increased but some of their facets and in augmentant the montants earmarked for the financing of the programme , in order to refléter how important policy for the fight against discrimination . in particular , the agreement on the principle of forecasting of aménagements reasonable , including sweden and ireland is the pionnières , will now ensure that the employeurs throughout the whole of europe , adaptent their places of work , acquièrent of équipements special and modifient their methods of working together to provide an opportunity treasure officials handicapped . article 13 is the basis of a new objective e.u. : combating discrimination and the treatment inégal citizens by means of grounds listed in the same article . the second point i would like to highlight is the wrong grossière commise unfortunately by the commission with this first " package ' so that she has sought to set up a list of priorities in terms of the forms of discrimination . mr president , discrimination on grounds of religion is unacceptable , as you like what form of discrimination . as laïc passionately . i am unable to me to add to this . however , the idea généreuse to recognise all citizens with the maximum freedom as possible , provided that it should be compatible with the same degree of freedom for the other , staged still some obstacles - some are not met and the rest of law . there is one of these directives has already been adopted at a time record , and i believe that one has every chance of being adopted during the french presidency in november . there are not compatible with the prescriptions lawful , as the amendment concerning the agreements of committees . however , i cannot accept amendment no 38 , which proposes to delete article 5 the list of differences in salary on the basis of age , which could be justifiées . you have raised the important question of compliance contractuelle . that is the first time that we autorisons of projects of common in this action programme . clearly , the greater the code will be comprehensive , more will be effective . article 7 of the code engage member states to prevent any transfer of arms into certain users finaux inappropriés . mr president , i confess to having the nostalgia in time when émanaient , the european parliament , but also of diverse movement pacifistes and trade unions , for incentives to think and act in the direction of a reduction gradual manufacturing arms , and where we wondered how one could go on the use of armed to the use beliefs . given the situation in which are now the world and our continent , after the cold war and the breakdown of equilibrium established by fear of weapons of destruction massive , such behaviour is irresponsable . these weapons are becoming , as it were , the symbol of the anarchie in many places in the world . the cfsp obscures one activity destined to deal with situations of crisis outside the eu 's borders , and not enough that this is one which can be described as a defence policy . their aim is to prevent arms exports to destination of governments who violent human rights , of regions in proie to belligerence or regions engaged in open courses at the armement . the commission , in conjunction closely with the member states , has been active in the drafting of the joint action of the european union on the firearms and small calibre . the next item is the commission 's communication on the european area of research . foreword to forms of intervention of more long term ; intermédiaires between the furtherance of projects and the financing institutionnel , using the instruments to géométrie variable offerts by the treaty , in particular the participation of the union to programs national as it is anticipated in article 169 of the treaty . what we want to strengthen , this is the nature of hierarchy and it depends on the level of mode of operation . you say contemplate a tinkering full of programme-cadre . i think we need today to something that structure the european area of research , i.e. to something which goes beyond the programme-cadre coming into supplément programmes national ; we need an element structurant . that would mean that we have to accept the formulae . with regard to the comments made by the stoa , i believe we must do something together , as the house , the centre joint research , the instituts of foresight herrings in different member states are concerned . it seems that the commission is making progress with no géant towards the completion of the european area of research . there will spans a chapter on the sciences , society and its citizens . contacts have been held with the authorities in greece , ireland and portugal to ask the government of these countries to accelerate the presentation by the committee on their projects under the cohesion fund . probably the absence of a service that you mentionnez , which existait within the commission predecessor and which was devoted exclusively to the cohesion fund , would allow not to have any news more concrete . my second question is this : hormis the cohesion fund , there is a community framework for support , the structural funds and programmes regional etc. to which countries avez-vous received projects définitifs and which schemes which countries avez-vous already approved ? in 1989 , the commission has introduit a new proposal to offer greater flexibility . i have listened carefully to the arguments of mr bolkestein and i know that the rule of tenet of treaty prohibits dismiss the strangers more companies as domestiques , but the law 's overall fair competition in europe should be applied and , when the levels of taxation are totally disproportionnés , we should étudier the fact that legislation on competition may be on the situation , and this despite the settles general remark that this is a prerogative of member states . if you want to retain the fuels , we must do so through taxation on fuel and not through other forms of taxation . i will reply to mr purvis , the question drawbacks regional naturels is probably the responsibility of governments in national inasmuch as part of their électorat lies in the peripheral regions and on the sidelines . mr president , commissioner , thank you for your information . during the spring , and in the summer latter , the commission has conducted in a réexamen ceo of its activities and its resources humaines . we have had some information on that . these children , in a rata growing , are being exploited by unscrupulous touristes and people of affairs , which for a number of important them originate from europe . the commission believes that all companies will be able to be prepared in good time for the transition end to the euro , not least as regards the adaptation of their systems computer and their software . this debate philosophico-politique ceases to be on the agenda , but we can débattre in general of the dangers of a referendum , quoique perhaps in another context . this applies equally to the élan . a drum has recently been sent to the authorities in france . with regard to the candidate countries , i can tell you that the meetings have taken place with them on the subject of transportation of animals and agreements préliminaires were concluded . the commission has also been informed at the saison of semis from the spring of this year of the interception of seeds importées of variétés conventional of different species , there comprise cotton , containing traces of seed gm . however , after consultation of its staff , i am able to inform banging the required fundamental security in terms of équipement informatique to use private or professional are fixées by a directive on the équipements électriques , the directive on basse voltage ' , codecided by the directive on the équipements hertziens and the équipements terminaux of telecommunications . if accordera-t-il nevertheless with me and said that the distinction made between safety at work and safety at classe or safety for a child travaillant among them do is in fact not one ? perhaps serrera-t-il the hand of president khatami . aung san suu kyi is now to facto under house arrest surveillée . i am therefore réticent to go further in terms of trade or to advise other actions concerning trade or the investments . question no 15 by ( h-0769 / 00 ) : those who would disaient it were , for example mentioning some of the meetings électorales which they had been . questions nos 16 to 44 recevront answers écrites . what we want is a report européen consolidé , publié and examined by this parliament . we should concentrate on the move to the non-production in armements and not on the way we will ensure our competitiveness in relation to other countries of the world who are producing the armements . the five members permanent council security , which are censés careful about our security , should prêter the oreille to these proposals and negotiations as soon as possible settlement really worthy of the 21st century . the debate today is an important jalon in the process of reform that the commission prodi has started , there is just over a year . i am unable to prevent to have the impression that in its hâte for producing a proposal before the deadline set by the white paper on reform , the commission has négligé to address properly the details . i propose therefore that the controller financial and the auditeur homemade produces both reports annuels allows account of their activities . the report by mr van hulten accentue more still , and with reason , the distinction plaidée by the commission . it is a good basis for departure for the exchange of best practice among the institutions . let us hope that this ever happening again not ! if we définissons a rule for the large institutions , then the principle of independence put forward by the committee of wise men should prévaloir everywhere . we have very often vécu in the past situations in which the process décisionnels excessivement long have resulted from the requérants the déception and the loss of confidence in the european institutions . i would like to say to mrs wallström , that this report is only one step transitory . this means that there was the first phase of the construction of a pont between the system of control available to us today and the system that we are to be after the reform . that is what makes up the proposal that you have before you . it is only when they will be possible for the assume that the sampling , the procedure for échantillonnage , will also be frequently contrôlée , will be retirée . beyond mere words , we are all aware that it will certainly not an easy task . i believe , though , that we are not qualifiés or as a politiciens or as a technicians , so that we atteler alone to resolving this problem . fortunately , the vast majority of children and young people grandissent in an environment exempt from such factors dire . i agree with all points the views expressed by the commission president , when he stresses the need to establish such a catalogue statutaire ; it is absolutely essential , in my opinion , strengthening the principle of subsidiarity and that means that the eu is abstienne of wanting to introduce policies in a large number of areas with regard desquels political problems are not transnationaux . information from the world and effecting in all areas of knowledge deviennent accessed since the domicile within the time the most brefs . for them , communicate with the whole of the globe are one thing ordinaire . apprehended very quickly , they déclarent to policiers : ' this is drôle , in the feuilletons , there can be done not take too facilement ' . the législateur - i will end here , mr president-in-office , that is not just deal with , but it must occasionally reminded the rights and the responsibilities of each . i am aware also to the remarks that have been made on education , on the training of lire images , on raising awareness among young générations as having an approach bemoans the media , and not to buy anything else , no matter where , no matter how . if a report like this one does not to make progress , to increase mobility or at least to begin to abattre the barriers which are currently mobility in the world of education , nothing will implications more negative on their side . the problems to resolve in different countries are to diverse nature : for example , concepts differ in terms of social security , bourses to study , droit de séjour , taxation and lack of mutual recognition of diplômes and the stages . it is time that europe is committed to once again to the proper implementation of programmes such as socrates and youth for europe . experiments on mobility of students and teachers prouvent that problems réels of this mobility is encompasses not so much on the part of the management of the enseignement but in the field of authorities social and fiscal and immigration . one has mentioned the programme socrates to illustrate this issue . it must be a system of inspection neat , control is clear , even if that were made by échantillonnage and , above all , a guichet , a page web , where the students can lodge complaints . we demand , therefore , the integration of the target of chercheurs amongst the groups of people who can benefit from the recommendations . it is easy to do so in a speech , but not so much in practice . the debate is closed . we appreciate your approach , as well as that of the chirac or the minister joschka fischer . enlargement requires strengthening and reinforcing permits and does compromet not enlargement . ( applause ) the european possède a patrimoine cultural , social and legal science-based single alimenté by the variété and the vitalité of composantes national . the proposal for a resolution on the commission 's reports on which you allez you vote just now , is riche here . this apparaît clearly in the report drawn up by the presidency finlandaise on women and the taking of decisions . the indicators that she has produced strive to assess the progress made . apart from the conference of ministers and the colloque on equal professionally . two texts very considerable , specifically dedicated to equality , but deriving from the council ( employment and social affairs ' deserve to be mentioned . the second is relating to the principle of non-discrimination , including those based on the grounds of sex . in the context of relations annuels , i would add - as president presidentin-office has also mentioned this - that one of the main problems which are confrontée the eu is obviously the existence of grosses differences in culture . the reports which it is a question donating also this impression . we must ensure that the directive on equality is traduise really for legislation . i believe that this method is used to begin by finland , is utilisable in several areas and therefore it is part of the strategy of equal opportunities in the commission , we can to wait for bons results . on behalf of equal opportunities , women french have conquis , thanks to europe , the right to work at night . as citoyenne french , this vision of the world , i find particularly alien . despite these reservations , we will vote for this report because , of course , we are in favour of equal opportunities , but equal opportunities , it is above all , respect for everyone . those who ôtent to mothers freedom of élever their children without being rémunérées recevront the facture later in the form of délinquance juvénile and vandalisme . in this regard , i would remind our report on the splitting of the rights of pensions in the event of divorce , so that the prestations for the survivants and the age of the pensions are intégrés in the directive on 1979 . women polonaises we were very reconnaissantes for having précisé as the representative who were present did not even relayé the position of women polonaises . the presence cofunding women at all levels of government and in all areas is essential to strengthen democracy and to promote and maintain peace . in terminant , i would like to mention the situation of women in the countries who are preparing to join the european union . as members of the council , including men who are siègent , ont-ils here to perform the tasks parcel & # x02bc ; pit europe in the combat against the maffia who organise trafficking in women . because this form of esclavagisme is not the kind of problems which can be hausser the épaules to stakeholder political leaders , and that they can refouler or overlooked . we can déduire reporting and action , we are considering today that the problem of equal opportunities has , as many of us the savaient , a problem for order structurel and that , for the approaching , we must of stratégies overall , because women are either one group or a group of social homogène , let alone collectif . it is true that i was somewhat désolée to see that maria de belém roseira will no longer this post . two of you have mentioned some new social rights , for new rights fiscaux . thirdly , they constitute the basis of a strategy with regard to the european union - including to the charter of fundamental rights , and because we have disposé with a view to the current situation played an important role , but they will offer as an opportunity at national level , since the member states can now , thanks to the comparative assessments , define their objectives nation . the debate municipality is closed . we need to see these amendments in the new context of the interinstitutional agreement and , therefore , parliament can transiger in no insisting not on the amendments comitological discerned that , in some way , they were dépassés by the new framework inter-institutional . nevertheless , i in-service personally that i believe that the text approved at the time by parliament répondait far better to new réalités which have découlé the internal market and of the liberalisation of markets , insofar as the chains of clarificatory and control that introduisaient amendments not accepted garantissaient greater respect for the regulation and applying the same procedures . if we want non-member states accept the compromise , the european community has to be the first to apply to monitor compliance with its own standards , because if a country has the opportunity to introduce products from the community market by the contrebande , why prendrait-il worth negotiate any kind of concession with us ? similarly , amendment parliament regarding the declaration of sans-papiers , which was adopted by the council , will lead to administrations douanières member state to be équiper instruments for managing automatisés the most modern . but it is too late now since the vote will take place and the members have voted in its favour . votes ( continuation ) report ( a5-0198 / 2000 ) by mrs dybkjær , on behalf of the committee on women 's rights and equal opportunities , on the reports annuels by the commission on ' equal opportunities for men and women in the european union , 1997 and 1998 , 1999 [ com ( 1999 ) 302 - c5-0106 / 1999 ) ( com ( 1999 ) 106 - c5-0289 / 2000 ) ( com ( 2000 ) 123 - c5-0290 / 2000 - 1999 / 2109 ( cos ) ) . this is not the first time that i am speaking on student mobility and the corps teacher . this report is even more important than it occurs at a time critical for the european union , that of enlargement . discrimination does combat not by creating departments administratifs supplémentaires , but only in the minds of people . i did not vote on mann report , because if it is indeed necessary to seek equal treatment of people in employment and labour , even faudrait-il does not encourage the zeal in point of abandon any protection freedoms , while respecting the rule of law . as a laïc convinced , i have not been able to support this proposal . the snp is pleased with this directive and its objective of ending discrimination on the place of work . if we want to make the directive acceptable and exécutable , it cannot be surchargée of littérature and désirs who do not belong in a piece of legislation . the eplp has yet to strong reserves in the fields afterwards . some aspects should also , in our view , be laissés at the discrétion from member states , such as the terms generals in force , the organisation of formations of the workers of certain groups of age , the nature of the system of mediators , and how the smes must interpréter the directive . in this interview , hulten pointed out quite rightly that only solving problems such as fraud , the gaspillage but also the lack of effectiveness in the process décisionnel , then we will enable us to start with an agenda commendable . the reasons for the orientation of my vote is concerned , to a large extent on the issue of rapprochement between the european union and nato and to the impulsion given to the policy of common defence . it refers to arms exports of europe as a means of solving the future conflicts hall in areas géographiques voisines of europe . however , i am unable to accept that there furnish the need for a policy of common defence and of a common european security and defence policy . children are the main victims of violence on television . i welcome the realization of this study . the group of experts will be constitué at community level . it will have to mission to establish a european memorandum establishing the principles generals for the protection of minors in the context of the media . report dybkjaer ( a5-0198 / 2000 ) it is particularly interesting that for the first time either relevée the need for further assessing the effectiveness of resourceful policy by means of mutual annuels from the commission . peru mr president , the peru lived under the moments of uncertainty and we nourrissons all the hope that the current situation is résolue through a process , guaranteeing all the rights civils and political and contribuant the strengthening of democracy and peace in peru , where 25 000 people are mortes over the fifteen years . the word to is the word ' democracy ' . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , the conditions under which have déroulées the elections in peru in may this year was unacceptable . b5-0793 / 2000 by mrs ainardi and others , on behalf of the group of the european united left / nordic green left , on the situation of women in afghanistan . i am pleased to note that the report contains certain points clear and precise on the situation of women and that he has drawn attention to the need to try to intervene in order to avoid a situation that the regime taliban will continue its work discriminated against frontal women . the eu has a duty noticeably . it cannot be recognition on the part of any member state , as will continue the policy of violation of human beings , particularly for discrimination systematically against women . we must take account of this reality , within the european institutions , and the fact that the cultures of drugs are used for acheter weapons . it will , however , in order résolue countries neighbours , in order to improve their ability to fight against drugs . i think the time has come back to the need for the european union is beginning to dessiner policy combined with countries of latin america which could possibly prevent these countries are experiencing périodiquement situations of crisis and those that some have connues . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , the commission and parliament saluent freeing the snr jésuite castilian alejandro matos castro last week . b5-0782 / 2000 by mr haarder , on behalf of the party of european liberal , démocrates and réformateurs , on macedonia : legislation relating to the enseignement superior and the universities . that is why we are very pleased that the problem of the enseignement tertiary has perhaps finally found a solution really positive . personally , i also see above all a good example of each country neighbours , démontrant that the enseignement does sert not only to propager the haine - just as it is most often - but that it can also be the berceau of a cohabitation multiethnique peace-oriented . i would also hoped that this solution may be approved by all the parties represented in parliament . i might perhaps take this opportunity to stress that the commission has already been able to be congratulated on its cooperation with the high representative , mr van der stoel . we do menons not this debate today only to express our deep chagrin . we menons above all to look at what has happened , what are the causes and how we are going to remedy the situation , how can we , as the commission and parliament will ensure that such events do not occur again pas . in any case , mr president , we agree with this proposal for a resolution municipality that we support as it is libellée under urgent procedure , and on the basis , of course , from what i have mentioned précédemment . we are in désaccord with the amendments that have been tabled again under urgent procedure . for the amendment on working conditions , there is a directive afférente , the wording of amendment is not so good that the text . it is simply not acceptable for the islands of the north and the west of the scotland , as for the itinéraire potential of traversée from the sea from north to the continent of europe , which will hopefully will inauguré in a future nigh . i am pleased that the government grec has entre-temps annulé this exemption . that is why , as a result of sinking ship express samina , the commission has immediately urged the government grec of providing éclaircissements on the application of community law in force . i would like to raise the question , and i ask you to clarify this with the bureau , though , following the abolition of friday , the abolition of thursday does not have already begun in some way . the problem is not resolved , and as long as it may not be made , the institutions financial international - the fmi and the world bank - will not help serbia démocratique . consequently , we must also work in the united nations and the countries of former yugoslavia and source as quickly as possible a deal that could unfreeze , when the time of the free will come in serbia , aid economical , by means of fmi and of the world bank . in these instants will perhaps be playing into the rues belgrade 's avènement of a change démocratique where the resort to violence can be évité . we condemn all acts that can be considérés as a provocation , particularly with regard to the places saints to jérusalem . with regard to the middle east , we as europeans , have consenti an effort - venise , madrid and oslo , stockholm - and we fully support the promotion and the development of this process . the fact that more choquant concerns the use of balles of fragmentation of the police and army israeli ; these balles , which explosent within the corps in dizaines of morceaux and which are banned in the whole world , even in the combat opponent of soldiers , are now employées against the civils . i believe that europe can and must make a great deal in this direction , with clarity and decision . so we must all do to stop the incendie in progress as quickly as possible . the provocations such as the action of ariel sharon must not be tolerated . it is once more the case today , and that is what empêchera and prevented europe over the many years , to play a role as mediator in the middle east , abandonnant that input to the only united states . we do sacrifierons not the people serbe to our nobles objectives moral because that would mean the death of thousands of people in serbia and yugoslavia . in conclusion , madam president , i propose to envoyer a parliamentary delegation as quickly as possible and so that a new government yugoslav has been formé in order to establish the level of re-building of a new serbia in conjunction with the new government . madam president , ladies and gentlemen , this is obviously a day historic here in parliament , which marquera perhaps the end of one of the last piliers of a dictature totalitarian in europe . mr president , there is a problem , the version allemande 's recueil concerning the urgences - i do not know whether it is also the case for the other versions - contains only the amendments of the gue , but no resolution or even the joint text . mr president , i will simply draw the attention of my colleagues on the pile which shows that what documents we have been necessary for the vote this week . if parliament could propose amendments to the council decision , it soulignerait probably unemployment and the problems of social in croatia , which are due to the system of austérité saddled with that country . nonetheless , there is no legal basis for such amendments in this context . this is an opportunity to revendiquer the same objectives as regards the activity of the eib . mr president , this was discussed yesterday evening , the very heart of this house , the question of serbia and changes révolutionnaires which are in place . i would also convince my colleagues , and especially the council , to remain in the negotiations for months on the budget for next year and the swedish suivantes , most faithful feasible for the commission 's proposal , which , in my opinion , is at present the best estimate of costs globaux in croatia and in other parts of the balkans . in 1990 , the elections democratiques organisées bahraini furent jugées équitables and libres by public opinion worldwide . i say so , yes , the financial aid , yes to this accordingly , i invite énergiquement the commission to help massively barbados profoundly european and now really gouverné democratically and according to the principles of the rule of law , with the associating states applying for accession , because i believe that croatia has earned our support unconditional . like the rapporteur , i wonder whether the money allocated to this end will actually available , particularly as we understand although considerable funds must be made available for serbia and that the union 's budget is not revu at the hausse . the délégations parliament croate and the nôtre have either invité the council to extend the mandate of the eib . i hope that contact has noueront quickly and that , like to croatia , aid will be octroyée on people serbe , which deserves our greatest respect . ( the minutes are approved ) in this spirit , we invitons women from the european parliament to participate in this empowerment : there is a call tuesday and wednesday and we récolterons the signatures and participation in the delegation , in intending expresse building , between women and the ponts peace where règne violence . overall , there were more souffrances for the basques and for the spanish ; it is true that the spanish and the basques are tired of the conflict topical . madam president , you souvenez arguably that , during the last part-session , i had discussed the situation critical of a campaigner democrat , the british james mawdsley , which was détenu illégalement by authorities birmanes . madam president , as far as i am concerned , i would like to turn into one of the rules of procedure . in fact , this report to apparence technique , which does not appear to provide a great modification of the order of policy , is extremely important because , subrepticement , it introduit the possibility of pratiquer genetic engineering in viticulture and thus to reach a vine growing genetically modified . if we do not agree with the report , there will delays . the council of state - as you have said - has rejected this regress . we have dûment informés from this rejection . but today the situation is repeating itself and is a meyer , certainly in the ppe , but not in my camp policymaking in italy . we therefore plaidons actively to the introduction of a picture of brink social , as happened in the internal market , with measures that are clear , of échéances and the deadlines . i hope , madam minister , that the council will be inspiré by the desires of parliament and that you réussirez , at the nice summit , to set ambitious objectives in the social agenda européen which we can then we atteler over the prochaines years . as a result of the informal council ' employment and social policy ' of 8 july in paris , the presidency has called on all the interested parties - european parliament , of course , economic and social committee , committee on regional and social partners , nro , groups and committees of the council - to express their proposals . set against the quantitatively as qualitatif is a faux debate and lisbon has clearly established two purposes : more jobs , jobs in better quality . we must encourage this mobility , whilst ensuring the safety of trajectoires professional . we must try to récapituler and décrire the shortcomings of the system and , in any case , we have the placing on the agenda . we believe that the coordination outward-looking constitutes the right path to follow towards a social europe . the implementation of the ambitions sociétales affichées at lisbon requires an effort community-spirited , an action plan for the creation of jobs in the services , particularly those relating to the information society . the commission will naturally provide important input , but the problems of social are enshrined in the whole locally , and it is the commenting on tenant much heed to the various contextes concrete . the social acted as correcteur effects on the most harmful policies economical . the proposal submitted originally by the commission would have been much better without amendment - congratulations , commissioner . it is a diary low-key . i am reminded of just how much we have made péniblement in terms of social protection in the legislature bowing . i believe that this will be very positive and aidera women to reconcile life-skills familiale and occupational . i sometimes get the impression that , under the concept of modernisation , we believe frequently to vider social protection of its substance . what are the core elements of the content ? it is still difficult to define the objectives of europe that will be pareillement apply in all member states , since there is a reality diverse . 49 amendments were tabled by the commission . it is therefore important that we fournissions reassurances about the possibility that will non-government organizations to influence this process . another point is that the community must act more in the assessment of needs of initiatives supplémentaires , including , if necessary , the adaptation of legislation , equal opportunities and the fight against discrimination . this is not just the right idées and the bons plans for achieving equality are lacking in the past , but their implementation has often failed . it is not acceptable that the voice of women is accaparée by a handful of adoption of the revendication vivant thanks to the perfusion of deniers public . equality of men and women in the life of civil , which makes it possible for women to jouir full human rights and fundamental freedoms . i attends that those male risked intéressent finally and that they combattent of stéréotypes and the rôles of sexes dépassés . i believe , however , that we have the thanked for having followed this debate , since its presence was not foreseen during this debate . competition policy we must offer our businesses the best possible conditions so that they can organise their production and above all their future . they must have a wide choice of products of high quality vendus at prices concurrentiels : it is , ultimately , the reason why we need to promote the single market and , in parallel , free competition , because it serves to all our citizens . this is the decision to grant or not to grant aid in the field of coal . paragraph 16 of the report riis-jørgensen mentioned the souci bettering the rule of law in the applications of mergers and making it more efficient and more rapides the calendriers applicable to the procedures to appeal . in any case , it is entreprises public to their force no to a impeccable dealing with matters , but the positions of monopolization passées and present . we need to impliquer more in the public information on competition policy , so that it really is acknowledging that favourable . they have a bearing alarmingly for employment and regional policy , and i hope that this be comprenne well in future , so that such aid , aid home , which have implications for the regional development and the economy of the regions , and where transport assaulting value , for example type , can be pursued . this communication contains three messages which are important . i thank also strongly mr evans for her excellent report on the rules on state aid to industry sidérurgique and on the huitième report by the committee on state aid in the european union . i would therefore reassure mrs palacio and mr karas , as well as other members who are intervenus on these points , and tell them that the regulation takes ample account of their concerns . otherwise , we servirions our goal , namely encourage competition and consumers in a way perverse . the debate municipality is closed . the mechanism for financing is the application of article 119 of the ec treaty , which is still in force in the third stage of emu only for the member states which do participent out of the currency unique . mr president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , i am glad that we can still discuss today 's motion for a council directive amending directive 68 / 193 / eec on the marketing propagating material végétative vines , and i hope that the vote tomorrow will be positive . some of them have embarked on 5 july , the call for beaune , where they are all their concern about the introduction of gmos in their profession . the rules that they prévoient are also in favour of the production of a hardware végétal diversifié by providing the best guarantees sanitaires . this is essential to monitor effectively the restructuring of the vignoble community point clé of the new coms vini-viticole . we have to say so loud and clear , there was nullement necessary to gaver articles of the directive on références to directive 90 / 220 under review , except in wanting to promote at any strength in vines the manipulations génétiques . i have the pleasure of your alerting that we can accept in addition , amendments nos 35 to 40 , tabled by mr graefe zu baringdorf , who tendent to strengthen the transposition of requirements for safety and management enshrined in the directive 220 / 90 . i would simply point out that parliament has not been asked to give its opinion as such . madam president , this is about paragraph 14 of the minutes on the request for waiver of the immunité mp from our collège pacheco pereira . i serai more precise on qualified majority . on the weighting of votes , the two options well-equipped connues are also on the table : weighting caps on which a slight , very slight , majorities are confirmed , or rather double majority , but with various formulas , double majority caps or repondérée or some form of ' filet demographics ' . moreover , without prejudice to the assessment of needs and the coordination of assistance for economic and financial to the federal republic of yugoslavia , which will be confiés conjointement at the european commission and the world bank , the european council in biarritz decided to grant the federal republic of yugoslavia , a first humanitaire contingency of eur 200 million . but voyez-vous , ladies and gentlemen , if i devais say spontanément and very much my sentiment , i would say this : whichever sensibilité on these matters - composition of the commission and system of vote - that is not on this basis that we can mesurer failure or the success of nice . positively too was approval by the heads of state and government of the charter of fundamental rights , but i must also remember , mr president-in-office , the reason that has made this agreement possible . as we must not be mourir of ennui the spirit of nice , our priority paradigm during the 50s days who are going to élever negotiations in community policy . in this respect , i would also have to say to my collèges of the party of european - and i would ask mr poettering for me listen - because what we are defending in this house , we have to defend it elsewhere . according to what we are aware of the results achieved by the prime ministers and presidents-in-office to biarritz on issues hautement délicates to reform the treaty , the charter will probably the most belle success of nice . the council rencontrerait really expectations citizens of europe in lançant great perusal of the people , the national parliaments , enabling us to reach a charter répondant really needs . we must therefore launch an appeal to everyone for retourner the roots of our union , have the courage which have been mr giscard d estaing and mr schmitt on décidant from the election suffrage universal ep in 1976 and in 1979 and decide what 2009 it will ultimately a president of the european union , president of the commission . i should like in particular to take this opportunity to respond to what has been said by mr poettering on the clivage between large and small countries . i reviens of something simply on matters of trade policy abroad , because that is something quite serious . that is when even something precious which was highlighted by all the members of the european council . another point positively has been the adoption of the charter as a whole . beyond that , in my opinion on this issue cruciale for the future of the european union and its method of decision-making , biarritz has marqué issues and we can only be a welcome development . i hope that we can still convince , progressing , for the emporter here at nice . i cite two examples definite : firstly , we have gone the right to work with the right to work and , secondly , a number of social rights which forms part of the charter of social révisée from the council of europe do lie not in the charter . it shows clearly the debates taking place throughout europe , including those in biarritz , that the member states biggest seek , in part , to put pressure on the member states finer in order to reform the european union under the heading policy pursued by the individual states bigger and also depending on their désirs . the dissatisfied with both sides are proof of the négociateurs that they are acheminent towards a proper balance . the leaders of europe have not formulé of vision clear-cut . the commission structurée on criteria of representation of each state trahit a conception tad visionnaire . we would then have a union centralisée , which laisserait smaller countries less influence that the system of bicamérisme u.s. does lets the states fédéraux of small size . after the summit in sharm-el-sheikh , where all the parties concerned were put together to find nonetheless a solution to the crisis of violence and re-establish dialogue between barak and arafat , we have seen , quoiqu there has been so far as that semblait can succeed , it is extremely difficult to contenir violence . in hefty informateurs , of course , turn out to mr barón things that are not really about italy and by my party . we need to accomplissions progress in matters of taxation of energy in europe . the latter has undergone a blocage total so far as a result of the principle of unanimity . we cannot allow that to installe a situation where the smaller states in viendraient to craindre a dérive towards solutions to directorat . i believe that the convention has fourni for the excellent work and i am fière to have been able to count amongst its members . in this second instance of features , the question is : at what time fonctionnera this principle of the rotation soberly égalitaire between large and small . the extension of a real issues of qualified majority voting and codecision , preservation of article 250 such that it is now the stead and the commission 's role in intensified cooperation , not just on the first pillar : this is a few aspects which will allow us to judge instantanément if there is , ultimately , foil and success . mr president , thank you for jacques , first of all , to jacques delors , thanks to altiero spinelli and to fernand herman , thanks to all , of vaclav havel in carlo ciampi , of joschka fischer in jacques chirac , of michel barnier to pierre moscovici , of chris patten on costa simitis , passing through florence , and by the multitude of prospective meps who have taken up back in 1999 , the general trend towards a european constitution . do critiquons pas trop europe mercenary - and this is a socialist which you mentioned : it has given us greater prosperity for all . accordons-nous at least on this objective , and because we are doing , say how attaining it . mr president , i had the pleasure to note that in substance , the proposals put forward dernièrement at the intergovernmental conference are along the same way as all or part of the criteria that i have exposés . mr president , commissioner , rapporteurs , ladies and gentlemen , you have hoped that we have , this morning , a debate on issues concerning desquelles your house has estimé needed to supplement the opinion on the intergovernmental conference that she had made in april last . thus , while respecting the framework constitutionnel exists , it seems difficult - i am telling you - to provide for more than a procedure of the opinion consultative parliament at a time of the déclenchement . you know well , this requires us to make some choice polices , to go much greater than resolving these three requirements énoncées highest . i have myself stressed that the formula retained for the charter is a route to explore . but i did well understood that beyond the aspect linguistically , your question cachait another concern . this is also why i wanted to express my thanks , and in principle and in the form of an initiative which you have taken . the establishment of closer cooperation should not lead to the creation of new bodies which viendraient will add to the union 's institutions . it is time to revise the treaties . the rejection of the european council to incorporate the charter of fundamental rights of the union in the treaties fondateurs , to bring together these rights legally contraignants and permit in this way to people whose rights do not have not been respected to join the european court of justice , doorsteps encroachment upon this consensus unimpeded . without this , and there will , not the europe of citizens and the eu , in my view . paragraph 8 : the constitution will consider - and i quote - ' questions left ouvertes ' . nobody has yet been able to explain what has changed since then . secondly , in comparison with the agenda insufficient , who has left aside for questions of particular importance for the future of the european union and the interests of citizenship . mr president-in-office , you raconte than on the eve of the révolution bolchevique - an event which should be devastating throughout the world - the église orthodoxe russian was plongée into a debate complexes in the style of habits of cérémonie in place that during the carême . it is therefore imperative that the cooperation offer any guarantee that has préconisées ruffalo , whether they are ouvertes at all in compliance with the spirit of the treaties , and that they do aillent not run counter to the acquis communautaire . however , there is a point i would like to accentuer : we do not seem right to demand or privilégier the direction of a referendum obligatory in all member states for the approval of the amendments tabled . we have had a debate very stoked on two issues which , although variety , is encountering at one point . we are prepared to make sure that it can be put to the vote during the session of november , so that the text will be adopted under the french presidency . ( parliament adopted the resolution ) what does ' the introduction of the possibility of taking its retired incrementally via the work on time partial ' , if not a threat to the pensionable age , however unacceptably high acidic in many countries ? everyone knows that pensioners , such as children , aiment the confitures . i have asked to pensioners who gave me mandated here in the european parliament , with the party of retired people if it piercing plairait to drink wine genetically modified . well , by dispensation , to put on the market propagating material standard , once the needs cannot be covered by other categories . i would ask you , therefore , mr president , the variations in the cost of labour is constituent-elles not , therefore , either a restriction on freedom of competition in the european union ? it was therefore inevitable that we vote against this report . despite the measures taken in favour of greater déréglementation within the european union , state aid still have a role constructive to play in the development of social and economic . these aid can be avérer pre-requirements for environmental protection , the maintenance of public services and the guarantee of a level of income equal to the inhabitants of the regions economically défavorisées . we soulignons the risk , after the consécration control of the eu on state aid consequence and to see this target the aid of a small amount in invoquant competition prevails for smes . section vi - economic and social committee if we are asking the échéanciers implementing the budget for the rubriques 2 , 3 , 4 and 7 , we see that only an average of 8 % of total commitments are covered by direct payments . there are three years , we have attelés via our initiative for employment in aidant small- and medium-sized enterprises to get capital at risk . parliament wants to do so in two ways . that is the only way for the european institutions to comply with their mission . i seized the opportunity to thank expressly the vice-président responsible for question budgets , mr gerhard schmid , for his cooperation constructively . we want this committee is in itself to work but we cannot tolérer that it is the place where the demands of the european parliament , as branche of the budgetary authority , encountering the least of echoing . this means that the 2001 is the last year 's budget unadulterated and it is against that background that we must assess the commission 's proposal and that we soumettons in parliament . we want moreover that you examine the expenditure tape . since 1985 - i say quite eighty-five - the committee on budgets of parliament is trying to get that procedures of the european parliament take into account the impact of financial cohn resolution that nanakli parliament . i will conclude , mr president , i should like to thank the other institutions for their prompt action in dealing with this statement jointly . you are appelés today to you vote on a budget which was already amendé at first reading by the council . on the injunctions structural : the amount of actions to restructuring has been pro-europe reconduit compared with the budget 2000 . the attitude of the council on the work of revising the financial perspectives is sereine . when we examine these various figures , we see that there are still further diversities significant in terms purely quantitative but also , of course , in terms of content . in this respect , i must point out that , last year , a new decision was taken with the council after a long debate and i have little hope to be able to start this debate . the planification financial décidée in berlin for the period demotic until 2006 prévoyait 8,1 billion euros for the programme meda . i would therefore ask the council and to the committee on budgets to think in terms of foreign policy and not just in terms of budgetary policies , when they are concerned with foreign policy . the second concerns the aid to offer the victims of human rights violations in need of treatment in the institutions spécialisées . if a compromise solution apte to appuyer the important work of the committee emac venait to relieve the pressure of time that we rest , we could still settle this issue ; otherwise , the position of our committee is still open . we only need to remind us of this day after day for allumer our positions on television and the fact that the middle east traverse during a difficult one . i therefore hope that we parviendrons despite which , in the voting tomorrow by a majority required for the observatoire dublin . mr president , on behalf of the committee on agriculture and rural development , i would like to make a few comments , and especially to start on rural development . we have asked for the approval of a lenders indicatif of two million euros for an information campaign on the pcp . the european commission should negotiate with the arguments of weight to reach an agreement reasonable with morocco and the council and the governments concerned must for their part support policy to that negotiation . we see today the 2001 budget , bearing in ringleader images of the population serbe . overall , we would like that these amendments are adopted . however , a path billion-dollar whereby people can ensure that their concerns are taken into consideration is being called for conciliator , or the european dispatch of a pétition in parliament . let me begin by discussing the budget of this house . as a surprise to many members of my delegation , we have early september , articulated unanimement a plate-forme strategic . thus , the 400 amendments introduits by some of my colleagues have constitué a surprise to many of us in the committee on budgets . it is indeed difficult to imagine how new posts could solve the problem of management if , in the commission and the council , it is still procedures complexes of another age who are used to implement many programmes . in recent years , parliament has repeatedly shown that it basait its work on a parcimonie real . it is unacceptable to speak , for years , a very vague about the commitments which we will re-state regularly if it is to say that , when it comes to its accounts , that it really is too much for us , and that we must now rogner on our promises . if we do plaçons that some malheureux million on these lines , and we cannot ill-suited more - we agiterons a carotte , these should be withdrawn if these people to have real needs . as last year 's budget , the 2001 budget is trouvait faced with problems caucasian insolubles : firstly , the pressure on women 's consolidation and the policy of austerity , as agreed in the interinstitutional agreement in order to guarantee the financing of enlargement ; secondly , the need criant of financing of pacte stability for the balkans . calling for better performances also calls for more staff . the adoption of this amendment as it stands initial , could begin to change the sheds , but a majority of the committee on budgets has rejected the idea . and there , hélas . these examples are manifold : the treatment privileged accordé the associations to vocation fédéraliste or to the many ngos on this basis , to the philosophie and the functioning of the most discutables ; on the financing of parties political europe , passing through the are englouties into the programme prince , to try to persuade the citizens of the member states of the bien-fondé of the euro at a time when the currency europe is experiencing a loss in confidence amply partagée by europeans , with our friends dane until the leaders of the european central bank . finally , mr heaton-harris has pointed out quite correctly , in the amendments he has proposed that the unilatéral many programmes europe by means desquels one sert an entire propaganda in the public about the integration of europe , due to its own costs , notez-le well . furthermore , our systems administratifs must be modernisés . we must also give a good example . the programme meda , embodied in the mediterranean basin , recesses geography of primary importance strategically , is a good example of lack of capacity for implementing them . when we talk about making réductions or taking money from category 4 for giving resources to certain priorities , and we must not forget what are the priorities of the house . we have shown that out clearly in the vote in committee . this figure should therefore be clarified . thank you , mr wynn . it wants to say simply that there is a real elements of flexibility in order to move forward on this or that policy , even when someone should it not possible , or do not want , and that applies to the countries of the european union is also true of the candidate countries . i believe that austria has not to complain about what has happened - quite the opposite . the recommendations of the regional organisations as well as the experience of countries neighbours will undoubtably contribute to the definition of these resources . in 1984 , 0,2 % of propriétaires colombiens possédaient 32 % of the earth . the council is not here to comment on one aspect of this issue which is extremely delicate and douloureuse . at the same time , it cannot be either commence as a debate on issues which are , once again , an extremely complexes . question no 10 by ( h-0722 / 00 ) : therefore , i am garderai well to give an answer end to this question nest . quite simply , we have the feeling , and your reply in testament rather than the council presidency is not very volontariste in dealing with this matter . therefore , the income from this impôt does not of course nil . too many in excuse , but we are going to apply the rules of procedure . if the sides off from the salle is resté silencieux , so that we have already dealt with these issues antérieurement and in our opinion it is inutile to look again at various times in the same issues in this salle while our time is valuable . furthermore , in the pipeline for adopting this directive on the prevention of encéphalopathies spongiformes transmissibles , a decision to withdraw the equipment presenting risks in the light of these diseases have been taken in june 2000 , in order to enrayer any progress news of the disease and to provide the consumer 's level of health protection as high as possible . i have no other factors than those which i could give you just now . we suivons and we are all aware of the work of the commission and council on the package erika 1 . however , in connection with this passage , who is familiar with both countries and experienced in the european union , which is a switchover particularly difficult , emprunté by business-to-business bateaux to win a few hours alone , with the risk that in stale rafiots come to grief and provoking a disaster , i would like to say , especially those living in corse , of sardaigne would have liked to know if it is possible and , if you envisagez to prohibit purely and simply switching from bouches of bonifacio by these jumbo bateaux , these jumbo conteneurs . that is why i believe we should , in principle , support the commission 's proposals for the revision of the policy in terms of staff . we must injecter money costs in the budget for serbia and kosovo . i hope , mr president , and i will conclude by then , that we are going famously even amputer down the budgeting of 50 million euros to finance the agreement peace israël / olp . that is why we proposerons , the european parliament , additional measures which serviront alone to find a new funding - we know that the situation today is the allows no - that in sceller new compromise interinstitutionnels which amélioreront the quality of expenditure and veilleront to ensure that no single currency is gaspillé . songez than in european policy , as in any other area , the options modérées cessent sometimes to be majoritaires . it is conçu for obscurcir rather than to éclairer , and i was déçue by the attitude adopted today about the budgétisation by activity . the fact that ventiler expenditure depending on activities enables us to consider the budget as an instrument policy in which the ventilation expenditure reflects the political priorities dot . we must find a solution pluriannuelle so as not to do so , year after year , rediscuter each time how we could find money for the reconstruction of the balkans . those who are intéressent development of an area of agricultural durable does ignorent move by the dynamic plant at the recent reform , as it was convenue in berlin , ' is déplace ' continuously for aid to the raw materials for support directly for incomes of farmers . a budget , ladies and gentlemen , is still much more than just a danse of figures . finally , it is immoral , mr president , to reduce the expenditure for agriculture policy , for the programme meda , for the excluded social , in order to provide resources intended to finance the commitments of the european union in kosovo and in yugoslavia . in short , we need to ensure that the people serbe does afflict the froid and hunger in the course of this mid-winter . furthermore , i would like to express my concern at the various parliaments youth intégrés into the programme socrates . of course , we must also say quite clearly to the council that it is a degree of responsibility in the development insufficient with programmes externally . we must now a solution stable regarding this aid , especially when it comes to their planification long-term for the western balkans . i think that most people seraient prepared to accept such a cost , provided that this money is utilisé in good escient . i share the concerns and argumentation that the rapporteur , mrs rühle has raised this evening in the field of research and aid presence . two weeks ago reigned parliament parliamentary paritaire acp . at the same time , we want resources budget to be investis in the funds for research and information , in order to seek the alternatives production for producers of tobacco topical . i would like to say clearly that the european union has had the effect that more direct and the more positive than you can imagine on ireland 's north , . in this model , compliance with rules and procedures is assuré by an authority indépendante and , in the final analysis , by judges . we shall thus for the first time a codecision procedure at first reading on something extremely complex and parsemé of technical difficulties , on a sector which is particularly sensitive to the protection of freedoms individuelles . it is quite positive that we did not réuni into an authority unique their tâches respectives . sait-on , for example , that the system schengen has engrangé more than ten million sheets for nearly half a million and demi of citizens , that europol sees its powers constantly élargies , centralise information originating from different police authorities of the fifteen member states , and that , under the single inspects for an authority which neither the competence nor the resources are made available to it for him to make it possible to accomplir out-and-out another task . that said , i derives from the presence of commissioner to say that i semblerait fit to be préoccuper not only for the protection of citizens in relation to the new technologies , but also on the use of these technologies to promote the capacity of the european citizen to intervene and to interagir towards the european institutions . amendments nos numérotés 1 , 2 , 4 to 10 , 12 to 40 , 42 to 54 , 57 and 58 and 60 to 64,000 raised in the text of the council for those points where the commission can scoring an agreement . it goes without saying , therefore , that its opinion on the legislative proposals concerning the protection of personal data will be very valuable because it will be an important contribution to the debate lawmaking between the institutions . the treaty acknowledges indeed for the outermost regions , a situation of economic and social arduous , aggravée through handicaps sectional whose permanence and the conjugaison pertain gravely damage to the development of these regions . it contribuera as well as the promotion of economic progress and social thanks to the level of employment reared . i therefore congratulate mrs sudre and we await with impatience the methods of application of the commission 's proposals , so that they must be taken into account shortly on specifics , under article 299 ( 2 ) of the treaty of amsterdam . for many europeans , some outermost regions are mere destinations touristiques on the map . our rate of unemployment are among the highest in the european union . i am pleased that the commission has adopted by a large majority the amendments which i have tabled . it is very important , in my opinion , that the ultraperipheral regions are intégrées within the grids transeuropéens transport , energy and the telecom . the adoption , by unanimity among the members of the committee on regional policy , the report presented by our colleague margie sudre is a testimony to the fidélité ep towards one of its commitments on the most important . we cannot débattre is a set of circumstances and thinking that from the point ideal and idyllique - appelons-le as well - has been achieved , it will no longer need to take further steps in the handling of these three areas and , more particularly , of ultra-peripheral regions , which is involved here . this article , ladies and gentlemen , let us allow admittedly no all do , but we can help to strengthen and then i think it is necessary to extend and improve our work . for the preparation of the proposals which are necessary , the commission collabore naturally with the member states and regions concerned . in these areas , we know , there is durablement difficulties and i believe , therefore , objectivement , according to their actual level of development , that they will need durablement by support for regional policy and in particular measures . a meeting of this kind could again be organised in the course of the year 2001 , when we will be more advanced in implementing the programme presented by mars . the presidency has said that he has been closed and is to accepte perfectly . i believe that parliament is far from being stick to the rules topical because , as stated by another colleague , very often , indeed , this is not the machines which have not fonctionné , but the members who have oublié to vote , and if you could correcting a vote by a result , we still finirions ever . i am obviously what i eats . in short , commissioner , in addition to the authority , it is important that the commission services responsible , in cooperation and in coordination with the member states , établissent a system of controls homogènes and effective throughout the food chain , and that the network of laboratoires food from the european union should be strengthened and work in tandem with the commission . we need to avoid any duplication of work in the field of activities and research scientist , which involves a collaboration with the first-stop research at national and community . today , we are talking about a white paper and we have an interest in define certain exalted principles . now , these procedures have been amended and changed and we have our own agency national food safety , the food standards agency . finally , we soutiendrons too many new amendments , more specifically , amendments nos 11-13 , 7-9 and we want to hold a vote in awareness about amendment no 14 . in this context , let me say straight away that food safety depends entirely on the organised by the authorities of scrutinies rigorous - controls that are too stringent for the weakest link . it emerges clearly from the discussion of this question how much is superficiel and deprives the debate we menons on european unification policy in europe . confions so at a european food authority 's sole experience scientist , in liaison with our agences national . if there is the squared with the spread of principales diseases country-of-origin food which affectent europe at present , the majority were actually their first appearance in america . it is nonetheless necessary to define the conditions of saisine food safety authority 's to guarantee an action efficiently and quickly . we should also emphasise , as well as some previous speakers , in particular mr whitehead , mrs gebhardt , that the white paper is much more than a new framework réglementaire within the european union . mr president , i ressens today both a satisfaction and gratitude - firstly with regard to the commission has started its work towards achieving better food safety , and secondly about mr bowis and the whole of the committee on the environment , public health and consumer policy . amendment no 17 is particularly important . it predicts that people ask council to organisations for consumers . another aspect is the review organique standards on the label , both for sale in headline that at the moment ; a review which gives lastly , thanks to the traçabilité products and their ingredients and information correct pro-consumer and permette the determination of responsibility projected in the event of risk or a crisis . in my opinion , the development of a new legislation is not a good response to the non-respect of legislation which already exists . in the vote on the environment committee , we have managed to restore some balance in insérant in the field of application matters relating to the nutrition and other références essentielles the role of small and medium-sized enterprises in the safeguard of habits foodstuff . mr president , i would like to joindre to my colleagues and congratulate the rapporteur , mr bowis , for his approach very constructive and very logique with these problems and specific . mr president , the fact that the white paper on food safety is of no value legislation does nullement counter to a dual value that it is certainly . the rapporteur , along with many meps belonging to the commission , including myself , have stressed the food authority , which is actually rather regrettable . the independence and the autonomy of the instrument is the atouts which servent most to the interests of consumers of europe . i have said many times during that time , we had had the opportunity with the choice of the rapporteur . mr president , i would like to congratulate our colleague mr bowis in order to be truly efforcé to integrate all the points of view in his report and , above all for having agreed that we référions as to what constitutes a more general food . in short , mr president , the policy cannot be soustraire to its responsibilities . but above all , we must win the respect of its pairs and the confidence of the public and persuade the governments of member states to accept its findings . that is how i envisage a future european food safety authority . there is the world organisation of health in geneva . i do cache nor , that in publishing the white paper , i have voted against the creation of such an authority . we must therefore ensure that the european union boasts of standards the highest possible food safety , but this conception - unanimement partagée - must also analyser the consequences of economic she brings to the sectors concerned by a requirement of production . the tâches of the agency will then the suivantes : research scientist indépendante , surgery , inspections and controls self-employment as well as an early warning system , but securely as a matter of coordination in order to restore confidence . to be told in passing , i would say to the speakers who have made reference to the question of the need to be sensitive to the promotion of local products or traditionnels that this issue is couverte by legislation hygiene . this climate consensual facilitera the task of the commission when the time will come to submit a proposal numerically pay heed to the maximum opinions exposés by parliament and by the many parts prenantes in terms of food safety . to say so , it was the last few years a forces motrices which have led , in terms of policy , for the signing of the ottawa convention . i reiterate my opposition to amendments nos 10 and 19 to the concerns of cohérence budgets and , as regards amendment no 29 , i request a vote by blocs in order to have an improved wording of the text which is suffering for me to problems of interpretation that is where soulève a preliminary question . the european union and , above all , the commission must do everything we can to that countries which have still not done so signent the ottawa convention . . ( de ) mr president , ladies and gentlemen , we have all the impact of anti-personnel mines , although they are often in some cases sectional of justifications military significance . that is voltaire , who has made for the first time in 1996 , the question of a coherent budgetary horizontal and creating a legal basis appropriately in order to provide a plate-forme single for very many actions undertaken in this area , important . but i cannot do not occulter the fact that the power of persuasion of the union to achieve this objective is heurte somewhat on the réticence of some member states which rechignent to signer and to ratify the convention . mine action earns in efficiency when it is adapte the conditions relating to each situation . parliament knows that as it exists already intolerably and that , thanks to our proposals for reform of the aid g overseas , we hope we soustraire at the lourdeur control of the projects individual and focussing our debates with the member states on the stratégies and programmes globaux . ngos have proliféré satisfying the needs . nevertheless , we must realise that around four years after the first conference of the united nations on landmines , which was held in geneva and over a year after the entry into force of the ottawa convention , many countries and thousands of people in the world , all too often in the regions of the most impoverished , continuent to endure the terrible consequences of mines terrestres anti-personal and the munitions not explosées . it is important that the commission améliore both the quality of his programmes and the rapidité of their implementation . however , i believe that , if you the parcourez once again deduced very attentive , you remarquerez that there are several amendments which you mentioned that , in my opinion , pertain to campaigns in awareness about transparency , on access reserved for ngos , on things which are working very well at this moment but that could still fonctionner more effectively . mrs bonino and mr patten has also right in stating that the european parliament and council will ought not to deal with issues tape , and i have listened very carefully to the remarks made by mr patten on this , because it would appear that we should certainly not be discussing it . mr president , voici quite some time that our group will actively on the whole range of applications and measures which are needed , since the interruption of production , the destruction of stocks , the judgment of the commercially , until the clearing of déminage , the rehabilitation of victims and increased awareness . the states , that we support the process in the enceintes international . the mines are naturally a wedge leading to the reconstruction of these countries and the return of refugees . the rhythm which we will , as was said earlier , we need much more than 100 years for débarrasser earth anti-personnel mines . the third area concerns measures specific to propose , to monitor and to exécuter . for every child that we protégeons in bosnia , in africa and elsewhere in the life or the blessures gruesome engendrées by the mining , the efforts that we fournissons all are justifiés . we must indeed put pressure on the european union countries which have not signed , such as finland , or who have not ratified , such as greece . ladies and gentlemen , regardez finland ! finally , we hope that the tâches descendants of force militarily common european prévoiront training of technicians , especially for people who have an interest premises in the drowning in them . it is emphasises , nor is it that the list of countries most seriously affected is mainly composée from country to travelator of development . the proposals of the european parliament does sauraient be tougher in contradiction with the aims of lisbon . the rapporteur , mrs van lancker , hope that parliament decides to amend the commission 's proposal , mainly by adding certain areas where legislation is convenable and , furthermore , in définissant certain rights at european level . that is how the process of luxembourg , which applies to the policy on employment , should be extended to social protection and social exclusion . the most superpowers such as germany , france , great britain and , to some extent , italy , are all agreed about putting to their domination small countries of europe eastern and southern who aspire to join the european union . however , we feel for reasons court-related that this is a mistake to get bogged down in advance to article 6 of the treaty instituant the european community , because it has not been possible to formellement adopted within the convention - because of its structure , and does not , therefore , to existence is legal . we believe that the inclusion of a new text into the treaties rendering semer the confusion of regulations . furthermore , the rapporteur has done echoes of the new théorie in vogue in brussels , the prétendue dual legitimacy of the european union : that of citizens represented by the european parliament and the member states represented by the council . the danish social democrats swedes and danes voted today against the report drafted by mr olivier duhamel on the constitutionalising the treaties . it is essential that the european union évolue towards a constitution which incorpore the charter of fundamental rights . a constitution would only make sense if it was the united démocratique of a genuine federation in europe , for us in europe . it has told us having believed incomprehensible , along with many of the classe policy , which we préférions govern our relations with other countries with a treaty internationally . . ( en ) i welcome the report by mr duhamel as a contribution valuable and constructive in the run-up to the constitutionalising the treaties . they believe that a rearrangement and a simplification of the treaties would enable the citizens of mieux cerner the area of responsibility of the eu and its limitations and the procedures for exercising responsibilities in question . the charter of fundamental has been prepared on the basis of a convention which involve the national parliaments , the european parliament and the representatives of governments . until the treaty of amsterdam in 1997 , europe was a super syndicat intergouvernemental . the group edd voted against the report gil-robles gil-delgado on increased cooperation . it manifeste because the conception of a union intolerably monolithique , where all the cooperation should be expressed inside the ' framework institutionnel one-size-fits-all " , and where they should all be dirigées towards the objective of the super-état . so we must avoid ralentir the mobilised as a whole and thus allow some member states to move forward in développant the mechanism of closer cooperation . the structures opérationnelles single-market have always been a success since the early years 1990 . . ( nl ) cooperation at european level can be useful to solve the problems transfrontaliers . these areas could be a formidable laboratoire in terms of sustainable development . the technocrates , judges europeans , have liked as well delete " the granting of sea ' which alimente in resourcefulness our municipalities of dom and above all protects our artisans . however , the french possède the territories of outre-mer in the ocean indien and in the caraïbes . its independence will be an element indispensable to its credibility . our vote was therefore clarifié the role and the composition of the future authority , but also précisé our requirements regarding its financing and its independence . at second place , the european agency must be completely indépendante . we must take account of the kind of practical farming and agro-industrielles , problems of imports of goods eating , to the composition of feed materials for feedingstuffs of levels maximums of dioxins and résidus of pesticides , of composants food and others , by giving priority to food safety . we have voted in favour of amendment no 3 because we are very strongly committed to defending the patrimoine cultural européen related to food production locally . we have to margin in almost no category . we would also inscrire 50 % of story budgetary and put 50 % in reserve . i can tell you that other proposals are designed to diminuer this budget . report ( a5-0300 / 2000 ) by mrs haug , on behalf of the committee on budgets , on the draft general budget of the european union for the 2001 - section iii - commission ( c5-0300 / 2000 - 1999 / 2190 ( bud ) ) madam president , i apparais as signataire of certain amendments to this report . ( parliament adopted the resolution ) the real surprise that this budget deals with external actions which domine selfishness and the mesquinerie . other resources could be débloquées by means of the flexibility instrument . i voted against the haug report , similarly , i voted in favour of the proposal of my group for the rejection of the general budget for 2001 . we référons primarily to the new draft pilot who financera the effects of information in relation to combating paedophilia . this shows , in some way , the lack of motivation which gives the european project , even amongst the citizens politiquement actifs . 20 to 30 % of the markets will thus again offerts competition with private . given that this cannot be guaranteed in the report before us , i voted against the report . if we combine the low level unacceptable limits nation , which décime the primes , with the réductions appended to the quantités of withdrawal , 50.5 % for the agrumes , 8.5 % for the apples and the poires and 10 % for the rest of fruit and vegetables on volume poured into the market , as we understand that , in order to high-sounding quantités products transformés to base for fruit and vegetables , there will be no end to the grid . it would be upshot reducing overall price , the putréfaction products in the champs and in the installations of container of coopératives , obliging and farmers to déterrer what they have cultivé . i voted in favour of this report because it correspond to the expectations of organisations portugaises sector horticole , which revendiquent switching draconien of the com in fruit and products horticoles cermis profoundly damaging to the national interests . report johan van hecke ( a5-0296 / 2000 ) this problem plonge its racines at the expense of all , about everything , even in the quality of the environment and the climate , on the autel exploitation capitalist resources and the profit out of proportion . the countries affluent were agreed at kyoto to take charge of the nettoyage from their own atmosphère , though they were also made it possible , within the limits pretty strictes , to inscrire on their own listing of the outcome of réductions emissions that they are helping to achieve elsewhere . . combating the greenhouse effect is a matter of major for countries industrialisés , a duty notamment towards the people of tiers-monde which payent already in their lives the consequences of the réchauffement climate . all the art is to be in accommoder so as intelligente . we must also ensure and strengthen the effort orienté towards the détection of substances suspectées of êtres of perturbateurs endocriniens , perhaps in a legislative framework . consumers and smes will benefit not yet enough of the internal market , including the new euro entrenches the achèvement . furthermore , they have so far obliged the banks to communicate transfers transfrontaliers aged over 12 500 euros in their central bank to the purposes of statistics in the balance of payments . these companies will naturally satisfy requirements identical in matters of security and laundered . we are well aware of cases in which the cost of transactions , for payments transfrontaliers have increased postérieurement for introducing the euro , and that in the proportions , not négligeables . the european central bank could be involved in imposant a formula to transfer uniformisée for payments at european level , along with soutenant the establishment of a norme only for the numérotation accounts financial within the system of international iban . it is important that consumers embrace the euro . madam president , the report by mrs peijs , relating to payments in detail in the internal market , recapitulates the old revendication of the european parliament on the cost accounted for transferring transfrontaliers within the union . the report peijs the said himself in the preamble to the draft resolution and i quote : " what costs high correlated with transfers transfrontaliers nuisent to consumer confidence in the euro ' . we therefore have a lot to do here , but in this respect , the resources and the means of polices are more limited than what we can do to the issue of payments in detail in the internal market . the market of the euro is ressenti as an area interior and the citizens do comprennent not result in an area where the risks associated with changes are nuls and where payments électroniques , particularly the transactions banking via the internet , are increasingly courants , transfer between munich and salzburg costs a lot more expensive than transfer between munich and kiel . the achievement of this objective demandera yet , as you like us , and many years of work . we profiterons also of the opportunity to consider the raccourcissement from the date of implementation of payments transfrontaliers as the report by mrs peijs requests with insistance . the debate is closed . it seems , however , in a proper policy of préférer something pragmatic and local facilities , which puts the small business at the heart of the ruling , rather than a proposal which , disguised as to avoid the saupoudrage , do servirait only to produce a fair statistic which the use delivering would be completely impossible . specifically , i have three comments to make on this programme . rappelons than the first action programme in this area has been adopted in 1983 , in other words , there is dix-sept year-olds . furthermore , i have always striven to achieve these objectives by means of a policy practicable and pragmatic . i would say that it is of real commandos economic and innovation , is trouvant first in line with very exposées at risk inhérents in this area . we will finally to take account of the results of the work of the colloque ' sciences and governance ' , which was held last week in brussels , under the égide from the centre of foresight technological of séville as well as the followup of this colloque because there are many interférences with a subject that we traitons today . the rapporteur détaille a set of priorities aimed at strengthening the spirit of enterprise in europe . it is good for the image of europe because we can help the people deduced expeditious , accurate and appropriate . mr president , i désire , would like to associate with thanks for the excellent work fourni by mrs montfort . the important thing is to find the right balance , to avoid having to aucuns does échouent continuellement at dépens of others . this is not fair , and i support , therefore , this report . this is also the principle director of the charter for small businesses . the programme will ensure that networks fournissent this information . it is clear that the aim headline of this plan is to juguler the émigration towards the european union countries as well as rapatrier people who live illégalement within the union . i emphasise particularly the need to introduce measures to improve the safety of domestic strengthening dialogue between the eu and the authorities regional albania and , in relation to the commission and the council , the promotion of actions special in cooperation with the authorities albanaises , italy and greece . the absence of reports social , economic and political , combinée at the lack of safety and to organised crime débouchent about public flux for émigration of masse . mr president , unlike my colleague mrs pack , my understanding is that more must come to groups which are occuperont of albania , the better it will be . it is clearly not possible to find lodge a solution to the problem as a whole , albeit on a slightly longer term , the aim is to create a world of fairness and right , which provides for hommes safety and opportunities for the future . there is also a chasm between , on the one hand , the donateurs , in other words , we all , europe , the united states , which donnons money , which élaborons of projects , and , secondly , people who work on the ground . utilisons therefore agreements bilatéraux , which , quite rightly , clear , définiront work , the duration of séjour , the place of séjour , the rémunération , the pm , working conditions and social security , so that the immigrants deviennent and a force which will put on ice economies in our countries and contribuera off amitié and to cooperation between peoples and not in the culture of aspirations nationalists and dignes from the cold war . the men and women are re-exported so that they will have more or less intégrés . priority must not be given to the means to restrict the flux of migrants and refugees , but on how to improve the living conditions of the region in such a way that people did not to leave their foyer . mr president , i believe , too , as has rightly said , madam dimitrakopoulos , which are still at the heart of what constitutes the difficulties of albania - economic , social and security homemade . the question we can help to restore the rule of law , to conférer security to its citizens , to restore the authority of its institutions and its administrations locally . i share the opinion of mr liese , according to which we need to establish a distributing the burden of the common asylum and policy on refugees . the action plan for albania has been adopted in june this year , and that is why the sixième of gender . there is , in the population , a frustration diffuse , but also a méconnaissance of community law . we want to ask the european parliament and the other community institutions which will not reculer prefix the small business pénibles , to work with precision , to spend time and the staff required for the accomplissement of tâches . with this report , we want to show the citizens that we take seriously their complaints relating to the piètre quality of legislation as well as those relating to the régionalisation and to the centralisation excessives . this treaty is obviously important , although the number downgraded for people to débattre do leaves no perforce supposer at first sight . in addition , and this is a matter of major importance , the report aborde the question of subsidiarity , which , tonight , soulève the controverse here . it is also very interesting that it makes a state of the locations of legislation in the light of this principle , and making it simpler , more transparent , more efficient and more relevant in the débarrassant texts superflus - and this is invites paragraph 6 of the report . having étudié the report very carefully and i am reached the conclusion that it does not even from a political principle but with a principle théologique . we must therefore ensure recognising the principle of subsidiarity to the very smallest communities , to réalités autonomes , the formations intermédiaires , the formations social , to the families and individuals who are the uniques real souverains action legislative and administrative . i shall therefore you give understandings synthétique of the situation . i give the floor to mr bangemann . is it an area where we should move towards a regulation detailed , with a guarantee that it will be implemented everywhere , or should we move towards an agreement non-committal , pourvu that it can be implemented and contrôlé ? . ( de ) if i have voted in favour of this report , even if some of my amendments were not adopted , it is because it elaborates also on the issue of cost reared exchange-rate and transfer within the euro zone . when , in around fifteen months , the same pièces and notes will be introduits in eleven member states , it coûtera more expensive to bring this new togetherness currencies outside the country where they live . mr president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , i would like to begin by saying that i regret that the commissioner for fisheries , mr fischler , would not be here with us today . it should encourage cooperation with regard to fisheries and the area of fisheries marocain and simultaneously satisfy fully the interests of fishing for flottes european . we are therefore reached an agreement to work with the prospect of a partnership officiating , after what morocco présentera his views at a meeting to be held , as you pointed out , in brussels on 30 october , i.e. lundi . voici a few weeks ago i was myself went to algeciras , on the côte southern spain . this is not far away from the moroccans . the passing of time , we were able to observe that they were not only difficult but also that they could become impossibles . by means of fisheries agreements , the european union can exercer activities fishing and échanger of prérogatives fishing with third countries . i have lu in a revue technical swedish on fisheries how one of these bateaux débarque its grip on el aaiún , which is described as a port marocain . all this is being put to the épreuve . this is the whole of our fisheries agreements and not just with morocco because there is also the mauritanie and soon the guinée , among other things , which are remis into question . reference was made eleven months to come out of inflexion where we are at present , namely the meeting on 30 and , accordingly , we know too valuing the latest measures taken by commissioner fischler , the results of its voyage of 26 in morocco and the entrevues tenues at a high level , also with the roi itself . but i would like to convey to the commission , today fittingly person of commissioner busquin , some points very brefs . my question to the commission is this : if one does not in agreement with morocco , or if this agreement is reached in the words were highlighted by the commission , an agreement which stimule production marocaine , the commission pense-t-elle adopt measures to restructuring in order to compensate for the delay which has produira at regional affectées ? as the imaginions , the difficulties of negotiation with the authorities moroccan were high . finally , in the case , regrettable , where the negotiations échoueraient , the european union has an obligation for political and moral to support the fishermen and the propriétaires by subsidies satisfaisantes and aptes whenever they provide the means to subsistance . we must reduce the surcapacité of industrial fisheries community-related . we therefore need , as soon as possible to étroites relations economically and politically with morocco , while défendant simultaneously the interests of our fishermen of europe . that is why the commission is working on the basis of a new partnership for development worthwhile both sides with : firstly , the development intact , in the sector of fishing in moroccan , the fleet , the european aquaculture , transforming trade , research and , secondly , the granting of susceptibility to catch the fishermen of europe . rights of professeurs of language the difference is nette , not just in language allemande . in july 1999 , the commission has borne this procedure of offence sub judice . therefore , at least , that there is parvienne to harmonize systems - what we hope - at the moment , observance of the principle of subsidiarity must not allow this to be done switching to a discrimination which , far more likely , is the call for a privilege . we can probably concede that the commission bowing , that of mr santer , was not the best , that is why it has allée . the members of the committee on legal affairs and the internal market across the european union and for all parties , have put together to proclamer the inutilité to talk about human rights and préconiser adopting chartes rights if , in situations of réelles where some people are deprived of their rights , there is nothing so that these rights are recognised and respected . this is the problem in the case here . this attitude is totally unacceptable in a europe moderne . the field of education is obviously still of subsidiarity , but as part of the treaties , the free movement of workers and the prohibition of discrimination , we are unpolluted at all , although we - and particularly moi , because i come from one country is very fédératif - we déclarions followers of the subsidiarity principle as raison d ordre cooperation within the european union and for us to engage in order for the allocation of competences between the levels in europe are classées as soon as possible under the principle of subsidiarity . in this context it can no longer be any discrimination . you , mr president , you feriez-vous soigner by someone who are aware of the terms chirurgicaux in italy , english , french , german , or by a chirurgien ? ( the sitting was closed at 10h56 ) we are showing our most deepest sympathy . i give the floor to mr ceyhun , who will speak as rapporteur , on behalf of the socialist group . with regard to the statements by the council and commission on the third meeting asie-europe , the council has made it known that it does not wish to speak at the moment . consequently , it is an issue which , under the treaties and of the treaty euratom , relates to the competence of the commission . it concerns , or could concerner , many people who are not only spaniards because there are , in the region and in that region , without there being any plan urgently , hundreds of thousands of european citizens from the 15 eu countries , without mentioning the many people who come from the outside world to take advantage of the costa del soil . madam president , it is triste , quoique very révélateur , to hear the interior minister of spain , mr mayor oreja , said that we do sert to anything dialoguer with the nationalists basques , even if a new cessez-le-feu was stated in the future . i should like to request that we examinions this week a statement by the committee on the decision by the government in britain to introduce a tax discriminatory for road haulage contractors not uk-based . given that parties that are said to suspension or even european tendent increasingly to be allier with military forces of inspiration xénophobe , racist and autoritaire . i think it is not just a danger grievous in italy but also a sign of something that affects the whole of europe . my report contains nevertheless some serious criticisms about the proposal french-owned . these applications are expressed in amendments nos 2 and 4 of the karamanou report . the initiative of the french presidency that we are discussing today is to object to improve both conventions directors-general of judicial cooperation in matters of criminal law - which i have précédemment citées - particularly in the area of combating money laundering . we have to admit that if the plan to combat money laundering has undergone a injury , the fact that just now is not in parliament , but the council . we have no alternative but to the praised the work . naturally , the path to follow , as the words of mr marinho . i agree - is the communautarisation . all those who have spoken have agreed that this was an excellent initiative , and we support the content . what we need here is that europol can operate across borders . these events are occurring all too often in our europe of today and , before i give my support for the mutual recognition hâtive , i would like to see a mutual recognition of standards équitables . i conçois as to be difficult for us to build onwards of instruments dispersed . but it is also a need to strengthen the pôle economic represented by the european union and that correspond to the wishes of the citizen , which we must bear in mind for the citizens of europe have a right to security . in the european union , we have to deal with ténacité against money laundering of money , as is clear that we need cooperation policy and judicial handed over the member states , as effective as possible , especially since the creation of the single market and the liberalisation of markets capital and services require . with regard to the council financially , not only serves to think that the lawyer would exerts no his profession as such . similarly , i would say that i am aware of the delicate question raised by various members on the conditions under which the confidentiality of professions court-related can serve as a disinclination based on judicial cooperation in combating money laundering of money . this is particularly true with regard to the convictions grievous and the most serious picked up on a plan with cross-border implications . as a whole , the mission is whether broadly-based and important that it cannot be assumée by the only advice . it is ensuit that it is necessary to reinforce the rights of citizens in adoptant an instrument efficacious and recognise the competence of the court of justice , particularly in relation to its right to the interpretation and in its power to statuer or not . therefore , although i sois disposed towards the strengthening of cooperation and coordination , i think that making this a legislative system would be a mistake , and we are opposerions . the second point is also interesting . this is something positive , and we must therefore welcome the fact that it takes such a support in this house . i shall take this opportunity , as several members have raised questions very délicates - to say quite openly , as has just said mr coelho , that this initiative we apparaît mainly as a first step , which shows the political will of the council of reinstating the delay which exists in the field of judicial cooperation , with regard to cooperation policière . and that is why i also see as an instrument , important to guarantee the judicial control of europol . the programme fair on the actions of research in the field of agriculture and fisheries was included in the fourth programme-cadre which has couru from 1994 to 1998 . given the importance of research programme for agriculture and fisheries , it is regrettable that you have raised some problems in the organisation of the programme . the report by the court of auditors on the programme fair , at the root of the report by the rapporteur , has not been publié that in mars of this year , even if the postbag from industry on the audits had initialement been envoyées by the commission in december 1998 and février 1999 . i would like , on behalf of the committee on fisheries , setting underscores some points . you have pointed out , and i thank you , the spirit which has led to this report , for the dialogue with the court of auditors , the commission services and the interest that you will have doubled . this illustrates that the commission has not been inactive and that it is sequel to the comments which you have made . let me turn to the question that mrs morgan has put on the recovery of sums . thank you very much , commissioner . the price will be délivré at the association is basta ya ' during the period of part-sessions for december next . i am firmly convinced that it also means , even if some heads of state and government do not want to admit , opening up the process constitutionnel so often and if obstinément requested by parliament . i am particularly pleased to be before you today to débattre deduced approfondie of this wonderful project that is the charter of fundamental rights of the european union , before you do adoptiez the final position of parliament on this text . i did , in my view , no doubt that this opportunity to présentera . it is true , however , that some criticisms have been made regarding the content of the charter . i think it is taking an important position and that i welcome . this was a great success and we in parliament - and the groups have been front on this point , which is something positive - to have achieved that seventeen members represent the european parliament inside the convention . i believe that this charter is a stroke of maître and that it can become , as titrait a great journal european on 26 september , the map of visit to europe . consequently , my group continues to believe that it is absolutely vital to include a reference to the charter in article 6 ( 2 ) of the treaty . many furent those who pensèrent that europe détenait finally able to escape from the single free-trade area and the ornière liberal-minded for jeter the foundations of a europe of citizens . at the summit conference in nice in december , civil society has decided to mobiliser to hear his voice and clamer its désir for a charter bidder of genuine guarantees for citizens of europe . for that purpose , apart from signatures , it is essential that all countries and all the forces of political assaulting engagement materializes . the mirroring every day . the charter is not amendable . then pleurons or do semblance of being joyeux , célébrons this great event that there is no less a major event vacuum . the convention has done on the excellent work . that is both the rights of the individual , the rights of citizens , but also the social rights . the right to good administration , which has also referred to mrs malmström , is one of inroads on the most significant . the extent to which mr blair accordera at its meute the freedom to express an opinion on this project brilliant , i do not know anything , because i do not have not yet entendue . the last time you have spoken of the verre at half cannon or half full . but the council in cologne , aidé by the european parliament , which has played in merveille its role as semeur of confusion , has fini by making forget to everyone that this is a competence of national parliaments , as they are about to happen subtiliser by glissements progressifs . when it comes to protecting fundamental rights , a excédent can be avérer just as dangerous as a insuffisance ! when one hears the speeches by some members , we realise that this information is more necessary than ever . the big issue which we divise is : what sert this charter . we will certainly in favour of the charter , but with the feeling that this will enable quantum mobiliser the enthousiasme and the implication sorely needed for citizens in their relations with europe . as usual , the governments - and some more than others , on assumeront liability historic . according to the co-rapporteur , mr duff , it is a step crucial towards improving the quality of the integration of europe . for those who will ressentent kosovo , i recommande of lire the explications contained in the convention 49 , and to take cognisance of the jurisprudence of the two tribunals which relate to the charter . mr president , i have long been in doutes . for the first time since the creation of the european union , we have the fondements of a constitution , a constitution for the structural supranationale that is the union . the manifestation was a call for a social europe and democracy , a europe of citizens . the draft charter can be utilisé , by way provisoire , by the parties , the unions , the environmental organisations , the églises and many others groupings of eu member states and candidate countries , such as an interesting document reflection on the future of the collaboration between the peoples of europe . i would like to focus on three points which have already been touched upon this morning . the charter to be adopted today will increase and will put in underscores the values and fundamental rights , common on which our community must be based . i am joins , of course , to those people who souhaitent inscrire , in article 6 , a reference to the charter and its incorporation later in the treaties . rappelons-nous the case of bernard connolly , whose pound criticism on the commission has been banned by the court of first instance . this synthèse is important , now that the european union is appelée to define the legal status , in terms of rights and to obligations , of ressortissants of third-country nationals who are légalement within the european union . i am , as for me , just like him , passionately , firstly , that it will lead uniques immédiats ; secondly , as it is constraining shortly . i have heard , during this debate , some formulae percutantes : the charter would be a os for the chien - the chien since the european parliament - or rather the cache-sexe of renoncements of a french presidency moribonde , particularly in the conduct of the igc . that is precisely that has led parliament to propose setting up of a forum euro-turc , which linked to a reflectiveness approfondie representatives qualifiés from the community turkish and parliamentarians europeans who may have been given the mandate . unanimity does not mean that we are all happy about democracy in turkey and the way in which turkey respects human rights : we do not do . this redefined , i know of course that the candidature of turkey continues to give cause for great concern . the wish of the presidency is that this project to be adopted quickly , if possible , in fact already on 20 november , for the forthcoming general affairs council and , as was pointed out , in respect of decisions very precise taken in helsinki . it is still no less - as the commission has very clearly affirmé in its regular report - that turkey must , as all the other applicant countries meet the copenhagen criteria in the context of the process of rapprochement . in his speech of the last month before parliament turkish president sezer has explained very clearly why turkey does not have any alternative to the commitment to reform . thank you for your attention . here too , there were some signs slightly positive . we résisterons to tentatives , sometimes fallacieuses , of rompre balance that the report has réussi to achieve , and we résisterons in particular to the amendments which seek to make the european parliament a court to judge the past . this is a clear neat , as it is clear that turkey must , as in any society civilisée , accustom themselves to the idea of affronter its past , too horrible that it was . the accession of turkey on such a basis - not because of considerations géostratégiques the usa and nato - would be a enrichissement for the european union and a step significatif towards the unification of europe . oublie-t-on only a small part uniquely of turkey 's territory is part of the continent of europe ? we are therefore voting against this report , as we have voted against all the reports aimed at including turkey in the european union . the greatest damage would be to awaken in turkey for expectations which cannot be satisfied owing to the situation policy-making . report ( a5-0310 / 2000 ) by mrs langenhagen , on behalf of the committee on budgetary control , on the report special no. 9 / 1999 by the court of auditors on the actions of research in the field of agriculture and fisheries - program fair ( fisheries , agriculture and agro-industrial research ) - accompanied responses from the commission ( c5-0227 / 2000 - 2000 / 2133 ( cos ) ) i welcome this report and i voterai for . instead of drawing the human rights and social rights upwards , it facilitera the operations aimed at the derive from the bottom . it is not the ombre of a doubt that its objective eventual is to servir of préambule at a european constitution upcoming who , in its turn , will form the crowning achievement of the running of the eu towards the fédéralisation where , dorénavant institutionnalisées , decisions are taken by a few powerful to be applied to all . the main objective is to servir the interests of big business monopolistique of the european union at détriment the interests of workers and , more generally , the people . one case typique was presented by article 2-2 ' no-one can be sentenced to death and executed ' . nulle part there can be said that , despite our demands , that the family is formée of one man and a woman who élèvent children , and that it is the cellule paradigm of society . inasmuch as judges have not been elected , this is an backwards in terms of government démocratique . of course , i would voulue directly incorporated into the treaties européens ! i have nevertheless abstenu when voting terminal because i believe that certain social rights are formulés in one way or candid that human rights economical . the idea certified by the convention was to have a text consensual enabling us to the fifteen governments of making it mandatory for its incorporation into the treaties . in fact , the fight against social exclusion is reléguée at rang assistance , instead of putting the requirement of basic rights contraignants for the employeurs and states . i personally am convinced that the laïcité is worth émancipatrice and topical . overshoots as an obligation to social linked to the propriété . it is clear that this document is not conçu to become an untrustworthiness legally binding , since it is not a piece of legislation . some members of the government irlandais have raised , recently , issues relating to the fact that perhaps brussels threatened the identity irish and mr ahern , while affirmant that membership of ireland in the eu is fundamental to its prosperity and its success economical , was firmly opposed to any movement rapidly towards a europe more federally - centralisée - since it irait far beyond what most of the european désirent or are prepared to accept at the moment . devinez which the emporta ? i record in passing that during this period of session , seven reports on the whole dropping their origin in initiatives at national , which prouve that this system , where there are , end has very productif . these measures volontaristes are absolutely essential in order to combat this phenomenon , which has not ceased to be developed and making internationaliser . through this initiative , the french presidency is proposing the adoption of a framework decision in view of the approximation of laws and procedures governing criminal-law on money laundering ( for example , tracing , freezing and confiscation of funds ) . all member states should tackle money-laundering as a crime passible of a minimum of four years of emprisonnement . since money-laundering downs of proportions enormity throughout the world , it is obvious that europol should be given the power to combat them in order to develop a strategy of european cooperation policière and justice . i welcome the report by mrs roure on a new initiative by the french presidency - in order , this time , to improve cooperation legalistic , so as to ensure that no barrière bottom line is the extradition of criminals suspectés of money-laundering and other offences involving intercede funds illicites . madam president , this is the only report about which i voted défavorablement . it would be the first eu country which casts a bridge geographic above the schism that we sépare in asia , and the first irritated by tradition principally musulmane . this is especially true when we engageons in quantity stiffening of resources from the eib , and this should not cover mono-ethnic risks economic-policy we take . in this context , i indicating the conclusion parcel from paragraph 22 , which informs us that turkey will remplit forfeiting the copenhagen criteria , and i stress the many condamnations acts or omissions which turkey has been discussed in the field of human rights , democratic freedoms and in its behaviour ally , together with the recommendations of woken up to european values afférentes that parliament has directed against the country . we are inquiets , mr president , not to hear , today , such encouragement from the united states official turkish and press turkey , but perhaps there is an attempt to react . eleven years after the chute 's wall in berlin , nicosie is the only capitals of europe which is still divided . the progress pre-requirements have not been made in a rata sufficient and turkey must continue its efforts . mr president , mr president-in-office , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , it is , in my capacity as draftsman of the accession of cyprus , i wish to speak in this debate . mr president , we shall not be possible to vote on the morillon report , because we are convinced that , contrary to what he says , that it is that a large number of people who expect , turkey too , accession will améliorera perpetuating the lives of people . but i believe in the same time that we should not brosser a picture too noir of the situation . so there is a relationship internally . conférences euro-méditerranéennes to marseille mr brok , who has rejoints , if interrogeait pointedly about the delays which have occurred in the negotiations . we have , we europeans , an experiment to do valoir . in fact , this is no longer just like in 1995 , to restore a balance between eastern europe , it is also preparing the forthcoming enlargement of the european union . the xénophobie , terrorism state-owned or other forms of terrorism are also in this area , and i hope that we will also have the opportunity to make good order . that is something which we must , hélas , we accommoder . however , once again , we should be francs . all this shows the consciousness of the inadaptation results achieved so far , despite the fact that the answers are not yet , in my view , in line with the situation , and although we must recognise that five years , it is not very much for the process as complexes . i therefore believe that the debate today is servir to make us aware of the importance central to this policy for the union as a whole . this is not that competition between all these demands that we are talking , but these are the funds novel and we must decide . the engrenage of violence in the middle east , the war menée with violence , and decidedly against the people palestinienne , to which israël continues to refuse its right to a state , menacent the future of the entire region . mr president , like the european union must find , in nice , the balance between approfondissement and enlargement , it should explore in marseilles , a relationship balanced between the functions of europe and central its responsibility mediterranean . however , the idea general bilans that we dresse when it fiftieth anniversary of the barcelona process is that we can be seen pleased at the very continuity in the process , the fact that there has been some meetings ministérielles with the participation of representatives of israël , under the authority palestinienne , of syrie , lebanon , etc. this is perhaps a little consolation . the problems in common with frappent papua mediterranean are légion : migrate illégale , poverty , dette abroad , human rights , drought and terrorism , which détruit impitoyablement life of êtres human and families innocent , as we are living tragiquement in spain , in algérie or in the middle east . we are prepared for the imagined , but the countries of south need much more besides that of promises or speech : it is up to their impart . europe has not made any policy on désertification or of water in the mediterranean countries ; it conviendrait should adopt a policy pertaining to environmental mediterranean which reprendrait the parameters , the logiques and even the diversity of the climate in the mediterranean . the proposals that are before us today are much more équilibrées . i turn now to the agency in kosovo . we cannot sector- décevoir and , today more than ever , they need our help . in guise of conclude - i reprendrai the words of the commission - and i would say that these two proposals are the pierre angulaire of a process which will help these countries , which have souffert and souffrent still to be able to be assimilating fully into the structures of europe . in future , we must conférer responsibility at a more tiny number - to a head again , if you like - so that someone is assuming truly responsibility towards the body which sélectionne the various programmes . i thank therefore all the members who have estimé that this objective was important and welcome the fact that in future , we can strengthen this area - in terms of content , in these countries . i have lu in certain communications on the elections in bosnia , the nationalists extrémistes have won the elections in bosnia-herzegovina . the european union - as you know - has impliquée with determination to contribute to these changes historiques . the examination of the reports westendorp and lagendijk on the proposals for regulations on the one on programme-cadre and , later , in the european agency for reconstruction gives us the opportunity to look at the level of support for the european union intends to give to the western balkans , in order to accompany the stabilisation and association process . the win long-overdue of democracy in croatia , followed by federal republic of yugoslavia , influences , we know that , at the european union to go much further . question time ( council ) their objets being apparentés , i call on simultanément questions 2 and 3 . a further period of four months has just been accordé to sides - that is the resolution 1324 - to be efforcer to make progress on the two fronts . i would like to examine the state of the association agreement with morocco . the stability and development in the caucasus is a priority strategic for europe . as for the discussions with turkey , we sortons from a very important debate on this issue and you connaissez very precisely the positions of the european union on this point . let me just as the minister emphasises the fact that the measures legislative proposals are those who exploitent and tirent advantage of people are trouvant in situations désespérées and does not in order to criminaliser further the immigrants or the immigrants potential . both measures legislating for measures designed to enhance the debate and to develop an awareness is required . i believe that we have to effectively combat these crimes all it can certainly all means , and i see that both the council of the union and the united nations general assembly , and i believe that the turkish government , are prepared to do so . furthermore , this is because the fourteen other member désapprouvaient they have done something . i take an example , if tomorrow in my country , france - and here i am speaking as a minister - venait to power a party right-wing , i would hope that we were to take against greece measures of the kind of those who have been taken against austria . personally , i wanted to talk about values : i have spoken values such as they are included in our texts , i have spoken values such as they are réaffirmées in the charter of fundamental rights and i have spoken in particular , it is true - in the fight against all forms of discrimination , which is inscrite at frontispice texts européens . this is something we must uphold . i would remind you that this dialogue policy is , in the midst of a future partnership for accession , one of the elements of the strategy of pré-adhésion turkey 's defined at that time . question no 12 by ( h-0850 / 00 ) : it is up to it that we employons and it is in this ligne-là and in any other than we shall we employ . on that occasion , we cannot fail to recognise that the proportion marocaine has not répondu to supply community-related . these are the people of scotland , where , after 110 days of detention , anyone accused of having committed a délit must be be tried or be libérée and will never be accused of this délit . measures concrete ont-elles bene taken ( security of supply , energy efficiency ) in order to make the economy of the member states minuses responsive to the crisis outer ? what are the means and the priorities of the council short- , medium- and long-term , as regards the rendement and energy saving of energy ? the union 's position on the measures extraterritoriales décrétées by the united states has not changed . finally , i have pointed out that the european union prenait note with concern of the comments made on-site by the agences and programmes of the united nations and déplorait so the consequences négatives and often dramatiques from the ban on economic u.s. to civilians cubaine . the council does comprend-il not that there is a problem policy by excellence and that it is unacceptable that it is adhered to égale distance from the victim 's and bourreau ? firstly , the bureau conforms to the commission 's decision to décentraliser ; secondly , it has to excellents fruitfulness of management in the work that he accomplit . they do not recognise no frontiers ; we need to combat the activities illégales transfrontalières , either in the field of trafic of drogues , cooperation transfrontalière or the trafficking of êtres human . it conviendrait that commissioner patten , who possède great experience - not to say wisdom - in dealing with crises international , and which , moreover , visited different regions of the péninsule balkanique , is rende the location of the reconstruction agency in thessalonique , to see how performing this service . but this region , the region 's most tourmentée in europe , has never been so remplie of hope that today . but i would like first of all to thank parliament for the excellent quality and the rapidité of his work during the discussion of these two draft regulations . we have also achieved results rapides in serbia , where the commission has put in place in the space of four weeks alone , a programme of emergency aid amounting totalling eur 200 million . of course , we can also accept the proposal voulant that the guidelines adopted in the future of the commission reflect this same search for greater efficiency which sous-tend our reforms . i hope that parliament comprendra the meaning of the proposals which i have presented in may and will continue to work in a constructive alongside other you on this very difficult , but i cannot give my support for amendment no 116 aimed at removing the requirement of unanimity , because that irait against the opinion of the college . the challenge of the third biscuit organisé to séoul consistait to approfondir the process asem both for the participants in publicly-available and for the general public . as regards the area " interpersonnel ' ( people-to-people ) , the principle of openness in the process asem to greater section of civil society was maintenu , although these initiatives ngo aimed at establishing a forum for social did not manage to see the day as a result of the réticence of certain parties asians . as sommes-nous very pleased that the summit in séoul took place , and that all the heads of government , except one or two , who were present . there have even been two concrete proposals which were adopted , namely the table ronde on globalisation and the duo fellowship program , which provides for 4 300 fellowships to compete with 25 million dollars américains . the commission communication is borne addressing issues relating to the powers correspondant into the community and the member states in the tâches découlant from participation in the rfos . if one part of the principle that , in all countries côtiers existing in the world , few people are deprived of the potential for economic and legal , legislative and political available to the european union , we comprendra at what point it is important to ask ourselves what is our responsibility . the reform of the pcp will be crucial , but it will be even more important to implement the reforms adéquates . i am thinking here of fish migrateurs . we are all aware , throughout the european union and well beyond . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , first i would like to thank the support that you accordez the efforts that we réalisons for foster and strengthen the action of the community in regional fisheries organisations . until now , some progress has certainly already been made , but we must above all to try to find a better planification over time . indeed , the improvement continues on the productivité of élevages génère already a growth of supply and if it were to be accompanied by a cohorts no bounds of the apparatus of production , it is ensuivrait once again , inéluctablement , a serious imbalance in the market . instead of this , it is far more sensible for every manufacturer of meat porcine is their own economies . every éleveur of porcs its tirelire . there is also made reference to the need to encourage the organisations of market operators , whose implantation differs greatly from one member state to another . organisations of market , and that they have fonctionné up to now have favorisé the process of consolidation , more than they did impeded . the globalisation of the economy is present here as a trap , and this has nothing to do with the crises cyclical . all éleveur , where they are operating within the union , will underwrite this facility . mr president , commissioner , the author of the report , mr garot , has dealt with diligent and précisé this commission proposal for the establishment of funds for regulating the meat sector porcine . this is a matter of balance . in this respect , i must say that my conclusions are different from those of my colleague mr garot . as far as the commission 's proposal , i pourrais almost the condoning as it was presented , quoique , if we want to be honnêtes , we must recognise that it does adds nothing to resolve the problem . secondly , there is the implication of producers spécialisés of porcelets into the system being proposed , such as amendments nos 7 and 13 of the underline . what , then , i would also ask the commission has presented ? firstly , an analysis of the implementation of the budget and methods of management has been menée on course for each of the rubriques financial . in this respect , the court repeats what she said during the past , namely that such a tendance has repercussions négatives : decisions inadaptées and hâtives , surcharge working entraînant a risk of errors and so on . the events dramatiques who have taken place recently has clearly shown that the problems of management and control pesaient increasingly heavy on the agenda in europe . this pénalise member states consciencieux and récompensent the less consciencieux . in this respect , i would like to say briefly that the commission prominence in his work on improvements in aid outer , both in the direction of a restructuring of institutional here that in the direction of a liquidation closer and more quickly than before the bulky backlogs unspent . now , the european parliament is in a situation which is extremely difficult , because he has said this year too , in january , that it will not accept any more serious errors in the clôture accounts for 1999 . i would like to mention a few problems and i hope that mr karlsson will reply to my questions today . we need more figures and more facts . i wish that this is done already this year , so that we can begin to assess the dgs . we all know , of course , that the commission is working with some changes . this diminuera the number of mistakes . the commission is therefore now obliged to respect the rules . may i first thank mr karlsson , because this year , cooperation with the committee on budgetary control has greater market for the years preceding ones . i would ask you to make a classement countries and sectors most affected by the bad management in the eu . madam president , i , too , i would like to sincerely thank the court of auditors for the report and her assessment policymaking , yesterday , in the committee on budgetary control . efforts at reform and their necessity were once again soulignés . it has to be able to lire what was said by mrs van der laan , and we all agree on that . for that purpose , perhaps faut-il attached to the president of the court a power of decision fuller on methods of the court and about how it communique . the rates are different from one state to another and their composition is different from one state to another . in its work biggest concerning the common agricultural policy , the report special about the cultures arables , the court conclut that , from 1993 to 1997 , the budget communautaire has déboursé over treize thousand billion euros of more than what would be reasonable . i do posez no questions to which it is impossible to answer . the court of auditors must also change its method of working . one can always be good for something . this report was approved by a large majority of members of the environment committee in parliament , and so i will defend the outcome of the vote on this committee . the second point concerns the ban on exports , which has just been vanter the mérites . so i have some reservations and would be enclin to reject this provision . at the second or third reading , we will need the fameuses 314 votes and , as the report is at present , we find it obtiendrons surely not . the commission is proposing a measure , coy but welcome , along these lines , that the commissioner will prove to maybe a little more when he responds . we agree with the rapporteur on the need to inform the consumer about the risks and to play in the map of transparency , particularly in terms of health and safety . in my view , it is préférable to take more account of the principle of subsidiarity . however , i am reminded of a grosse discussion which i have had with my fille elisabetta while she had neuf years and that it would wanted to go into any towers only in the rue . it fallait ensure that we garantissons protection frontal consumers , without , however , réglementer certain things several times and so contradictoire . furthermore , i would like to stress the importance of the amendments approved by the committee on the environment , public health and consumer policy , which strengthen transparency vis-à-vis the consumer final and which précisent responsibilities , not only generators , but also of distributeurs during the projected operations for withdrawal of products considérés as hazardous . this means that when new provisions are being taken within the framework of sectoral legislation , shovels supplantent the provisions of the directive . many of the amendments proposed are an improvement in the text original and can therefore be accepted by the commission . thirdly , amendment no 4 proposes to add , in préambule , a requirement forcing the member states to produce reports concrete with the help of institutions competent and indépendantes , either public or private . although the commission is in favour of cooperation and the principles commonplace , the wording proposed contravenes the principle of subsidiarity . no problem découlant from the current wording has been pointed out that the commission and the changes affaibliraient provisions that exist . amendments nos 39 and 44 propose that the information on products hazardous are accessible to the public that after that a decision to ban or drum was taken . they are also that the exchange of information covered by professional secrecy is not possible between the authorities patrols of markets . mr martelli , normalement , do you may express your opinion that , at the end of question time to vote , but i will give exceptionnellement and briefly the floor . report ( a5-0294 / 2000 ) by mrs eriksson , on behalf of the committee on women 's rights and equal opportunities , on the motion for a council decision on the programme for the community strategy for equality between men and women ( 2001-2005 ) ( com ( 2000 ) 335 - c5-0386 / 2000 - 2000 / 0143 ( cns ) ) mr president , my question relates to the order of voting for amendments relating to paragraph 10 , i.e. the genocide armenian . ( parliament adopted the resolution ) liability is twofold : there is one of the governments of the member states , but also that of the governments of the mediterranean partners . this aid is more than justified by the scale of this tragedy . the prohibition of night work for for women was one of the few areas in which legislation social in some countries , in order to protect women was a little more and avance for the travailleuses than for workers . i hope fervently that in future , the commission présentera annuellement and , in due useful a balance-sheet which allows parliament to carry out an analysis and a discussion in more profondeur . it is therefore to regret that i voted against this proposal . it is important for our products are safe , but we must be careful not to exceed certain limitations in menant actions extrêmes . today , the kosovo agency is dirigée by the board of direction in which the member states ' representatives and the commission have any of their voices and where decisions are taken by a majority of the two thirds . for serbia , the problem to solve consists of kosovo . the danish social democrats danes voted against the report aimed at introducing a system of aid for the producers of pigmeat within the eu . if only , as everyone knows , even with a certain opening-up of the french presidency , the commission rejette these proposals and it does not seem to be a majority in the council for the approve . a variation minime of supply is sufficient to cause a state of crisis . mr president , the genocide armenian was the first in a series during this xxe century that we can qualifier of century of génocides . sweden does uncalled-for not disposée to participate in a common defence , but rather the actions of treatment non-military crisis management , we cannot support paragraph 15 , which one ' welcomes the desire for turkey to contribute to improving capabilities européennes within the framework of the common european policy on security and defence . ' but apart from that duty to remember that we must insist on full democracy , and which we europeans know how it is difficult and douloureux , so nest that certain european countries did not achevé , it is important that such acts of barbarie with détruit lives for reasons of ethnic , religious or cultural and which frappent awareness universelle does reproduisent ever again . that is , without doubt , a different debate from those of today , however , on behalf of the importance i attach to turkey , i had the reiterate today footsteps . peace is possible because these people are no longer empêchées of exercer their right to self-determination . i voted for the amendments calling for this recognition , today , in order to pursue this testimony and to recognise the pain of a nation . it took place at the time of the ottoman empire . not only the report jové peres voudrait systématiser this situation by regional organisations exist and those which are being created , but it voudrait the increase in mettant end to the fact that the commission to make use of the support of technicians venant from different member states . my remarks valent self-evidently on the subject which we occupe today , the representation of the european community in the eu 's regional fisheries organisations , but it applies both to the negotiations menées such as part of the world trade organisation . my suggestion of the meeting was then given by mr trittin , president-in-office of the time , codecided by the european commission , so that the decision of parliament 's fusionner three directives has not heurtée in many opposition . one example : the pvc is 0,7 % of total total waste incinérés . i shall conclude , mr president , in disant that the ppe group / to be satisfied with the work put in the course of this third reading . mr president , i would like to thank vallés in mr blokland for the work done on this important issue . incinérer is not recycler . the report by mr blokland now at third reading was so many members elected for the first time in the environment committee is the first test in greatness nature allows us to learn practices parliamentarians . new borderlines of émission , more strictes , were introduced for the new fours with ciment poured into the co-incinération , as mentioned by mrs evans . whatever the different situations nationally one can therefore see , in all eu countries , diminution almost across the board of the collateral obligatory , a role heightened systems are known to sickness insurance complementary and the accentuation of factors discriminants . this would be instead of a proposal for a directive on the following : banning the use of information nominatives from research genetics , a point-clé ; the absence of examens health preliminaries in the souscription ; the establishment of an obligation to guarantee viagère by the assureur ; taking into account co-ordinated ' remboursements for people who work and is déplacent within the union and , finally , the establishment of a mechanism to mediate . we adoptons something more positive about the health care transfrontaliers , and the operation of the market is therefore becoming increasingly applicable to health care . the united states , for example , we servent often ' as a model ' in terms of economic liberalism . instead , it would be a mistake fatale them to take into template for policy on health . we must not only the eu should draw up rules , for example , the renseignements thérapeutiques or imposant that everyone has a duty to be assuré . that anéantirait the diversity of systems for the health insurance follow-on which exist today in many countries and who are working on the basis of principles actuariels . it was discovered by the suite that it existait simply a means of being admitted . it affects the health of all citizens of our member states and the cohesion of our territories . this is not by hasard that i am confrontée to these problems in the context néerlandais . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , mr rocard asks the commission to define in a green paper the hallmarks of a poise basic within the framework of the insurance disease lawful . this is a concern prominent democracy . mr president , anyone who , as we have spent throughout their lives in dealing with issues of social brace souviennent than the old manuels définissaient generally social protection as a whole package of measures to protect the state covering risks economically évaluables in nature individuel or familier and which individuals - the noyau familial - could not accommodate themselves . so , it wants to say that a large reflection on the causes of the failure to assistance medical public needs to be . sickness insurance follow-on presupposes a system légal of rights and prestations . in seeking to eliminate discrimination on the basis of antécédents medical , mr rocard has tué the poule to ufs of gold . the commission agira immediately within the framework of its powers , and i will try to respond to the conclusions of your report . i hope too that the proposals which aim to recognise the importance flesh on the qualification and integration into working life will also have been adopted , because we must take account of the phenomenon ever more important to social exclusion and poverty persons practising yet any working rémunérée . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , the committee on economic and monetary affairs is also to congratulate the rapporteur for his explanation . the next item is the recommendations of the commission for its opinion of the council on the updated stability programmes in germany , in finland and the netherlands . this has led to a reflectiveness different and to ask ourselves whether this pacte stability and growth has épuisé with the completion of the objective quantitatively speaking with a figure final déterminé , or whether we need to introduce other aspects relating to the quality of public finances in the forthcoming programmes . our message to base is , therefore , that the margin which aim to réductions tax should be geared to pair with controls strict spending public . i believe that overall , we might consider that it is a positive effect . they are indicative of the risks of overheating in one of the largest country in europe , which is also a major country in the european economy , namely germany . mr president , thank you very much mr della vedova . i think it is on these two elements , on the topicality of the fight against bse in europe and what the developments in france , which you hoped we hear today . we propose to the european commission and to our partners in the european union to prepare and extending eu-wide testing , depending on préconisations scientists . thus , efficiency , independence and transparency are the principes-clés guidant clearly the assessment of risk food in europe . i reviendrai on this issue later . however , it is essential that these tests are carried out at a level of firmest . measures patrols active , not least on random testing , are in progress in order to prevent the cases of bse to enter the food chain . in the sort of situation in which we face , it is still trying to get back to a solution magique , something which can both eliminate risks and restoring confidence . i would ask lundi to member states if they craignent that the cracks in carrying out checks , weaknesses which iraient beyond the limits of community legislation in this area , are a factor expliquant increased stands at the incidence of bse . it must surely be possible to combine both rapidité action and credibility . it only takes until you of the clôturer quickly . this is a requirement capital , especially in relation to this problem toll of bse . our group calls for a ban immediate meals of meat and to os for all animal rearing , as long as the member states will not guarantee the establishment of laws on the prevention of bse and the application austere directives européennes . i do not know whether this is the panacée , commissioner , but on behalf of the precautionary principle , however , i believe that the experience bids to prohibit from now on the use of meat and bone meal in feedingstuffs of all animal rearing , including the porcs , the volailles and the fish . i believe that the debate that took amorcé in this house , which is to look for which the council , the commission 's or of the house , has been most or the very least , strike me as somewhat superflu . firstly , others have said before me , we must pratiquer a screening guarded on all bovines abattus poured into the feeding of europeans . showing courage and ambition , we can conjuguer the interests of health of europeans and the interests of economic of our producers and we will thereby restore confidence . they are , i repeat , in no way responsible for the crisis . that is why the european union must show its solidarity with them too . i do accepte nor the arrogance of some member states which do pratiquant not tests , will require no regulation . the solidarity of europe must play too because our policy has proved its incoherencies : jachères , animal-based meal for the ruminants , nitrates and pesticides . so i have to listen to mr gollnisch said to her group mep was at the pointe 's combat in the crisis over bse . furthermore , we consider it appropriate to ensure that all foyer of infection is circonscrit and that the export of viandes either interdite until their is safe or prouvé . it is unacceptable that we acceptions insuffisamment this priority in the field of political . i am pleased to see that we envisageons always extending to tests on a voluntary basis . but if we généralisons testing screening , if we détruisons the meat-and-bone meal , if we imposons the slaughter of the entire herd for a single animal malade , we must demand norms sanitaires soberly equivalent from non-eu countries which are our partners to commercial and which seek to export to the community animal vivants , of carcasses , the preparations carnées . the causes of the problem is elsewhere . madam president , i am pleased that the commission has finally prononcée with force for testing screening généralisés . because , as france has just wag : which seeks transpires ! what does that obstructs moralising to act ? pourquoi faut-il every time a crisis for us réunissions here and that we affirmions that parliament puts public health in the first rang priorities ? the link between bse and the feeding of repository of meat-and-bone meal , a very little naturelle of nourrir animals which of course , is clear to everyone now . i ask , therefore , to the european commission to reach a certain degree of harmonisation in this area too . i urge the commission to review utter systems in place in france for dealing with cases of bse . the poison falls within the system that we finit by sideline . it is certainly difficult as to make cohabiter , in relation to that of national legislation and a european legislation . another garde-fou was dressé into the system to protect public health and food safety in the form of legislation which définit modalities for fabrication of animal meal . we said that they allaient be very onéreux , they allaient concerner a large number of carcasses , etc . for example , we citera the technique of the oreiller which has occasionné the death of a immigrée in belgium , the use of sédatifs powerful in spain , the transport of migrants massés within the cales of bateaux in italy and spain , the tragedy of 58 immigrant chinois retrouvés deaths in the united kingdom in the port of douvres after being arrested on several occasions in the territory of the european parliament and the use généralisée in different ways of contrainte and of intimidation against the immigrant expulsés . that is my own , and i would réponds as far as i am concerned . violence against women is several forms : there is violence within the family , which is crime of silence , there too the forms of exploitation of sex , trafficking in women , the trafic of êtres human . mr president , i would say to mr nogueira that , of course , in the model that we have défini , policy currency is a matter for the european central bank and the latter takes decisions in accordance criteria laid down in the treaty . mr president , i think that for public opinion , it is very important to make a distinction between the impact homemade ; the impact externally . i would like to know whether the commission envisages now , just before the introduction physical of the euro , to initiate action in order to explain to the people of the difference between the impacts internal and external stability currency ? in the absence of actions suffers from the government grec . it poursuivra proceedings now commence . the commission 's role is to ensure that there is a system of monitoring and measure . at the same decision , the commission has undertaken to proceed in revue the systems of support in all member states , in itself basant on these criteria custom-made compatibility approved until 2004 , when expirera the validité of the permission of the french scheme of support . the achievement of a europe which favorise integration , according to the terms of the european council in lisbon , requires an effort and action in future . secondly , in which to better taken into account the experience of actors in terrain , ngos , the collectivités local , bodies , social and people who are elles-mêmes in situations of exclusion . many older people could the confirm , together with all those who work for a few hours because of low wages nor their assuring not life décente - i am thinking , for example in the labourers farming . it may also be a matter of groups of people bulky which do maîtrisent insufficiently language to get a job . in the united states , with a market employment-directed policy more flexible , there is a guarantee that poverty is vécue during periods much shorter , with a time of dole very brief . in my country , approximately 75 % of people who work and live below the poverty line are women . then we should seek to achieve , will fût-ce only in part , this commitment . this provision must be strengthened in view of developments and the réalisme which are needed here . mr president , i would like to thank and congratulate mrs figueiredo and the members here today absent , which have rapporté the opinions of other committees of parliament . as you suggérez , we must also stress the importance of ngos and the protagonists of regional and local and - as you suggérez - better account of their experience on the ground . we have already agreed that the committee on social protection is réunirait regularly with the group of liaise composé of meps . 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 to parliament and council directive relating to the promotion of electricity produced from renewable energy sources in the internal market in electricity ( com ( 2000 ) 279 - c5-0281 / 2000 - 2000 / 0116 ( cod ) ] . we need now to cfps contraignants . another point nub approved by the commission is the issue of the interconnection and access to the network for renewable energies . specifically , in my country , spain , these guidelines seraient responsible for the émission within the european atmosphère of 225 million tonnes of co2 supplémentaires up to 2010 and the fact that we really could not reach the goal of kyoto . mr president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , we cannot just applaudir the commission proposal seeking to create a framework allowing for an increase steeply medium-term 's share of electricity produced from renewable energy sources in the european union . but the threat can always come from the compatibility with the market internally . the wastes to do is not a ressource naturelle renewable , even if they are in place every day increasingly . therefore , this directive acquiert a actuality unintentional . that being said , i support wholeheartedly the proposal . mr president , i should like to thank mrs rothe on her excellent report , which tombe bothers to pic in this week when we discuss here in the crisis of climate change . the promotion of electricity produced from renewable energy sources is something that must be supported without reservation . the adaptations technological radicales are indispensable . instead of this , the proposals are presented to the stroke of stroke and without great cohérence . and i would like to finish merely in évoquant three issues that fall apparus throughout this debate . furthermore , in a souci of cohérence , the objectives pursued converted into parameters national must be contraignants because if it does not , the directive manquerait content providers and substance . it is also the case for similar reasons to amendment no 3 in part , but not amendment no 7 , which is too technique for the text of the proposal . but , ladies and gentlemen , we cannot accept those who préjugent of applying the rules on state aid . 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 to peaceful conflict resolution [ 2000 / 2025 ( ini ) ) . while the peace process formels are almost exclusively réservés for men and experiences and declarations assembled internationally indicate to what point the participation of women is important when it comes to solving conflicts and to build peace . the decisions on the implementation and enforcement measures humanitaires should form part of the responsibility of the cells of crisis ; however , jurisdictions women will have little attention and for recognition . they want manifestly retain their position of strength in foreign policy and defence policy and estiment than the interests of women may well be championed by men . mr president , i would like to start by saying spans the interest that i alludes to this report , which i would like to stress the excellency , the vast excellency , footsteps . similarly , the financial resources needed to help women suffering from this situation must exister . mr president , many things have already been said and i do not want to verser in the répétitions . mr president , commissioner , i would like to start by congratulating mrs theorin for having taken the initiative of this excellent report which addresses an important issue , but also topical : how participation actual women in the negotiations aimed at resolving the conflict will change the world and transform the cultural dominante of the antagonisme and violence in culture of peace , dialogue and of the rules of democracy disputes ? that is why i support the demands of the report , according to which women should benefit from a right to influence diplomatically . an excellent report documenté , groundswell , rigorous , capable of énoncer of core principles with your clear who is present in article 17 , audacieux but both with a great sense praxis and proposals very necessary . i personally condamnerais all forms of rape and all forms of slavery ! cinquièmement , the role played by echo , the agency for humanitarian aid in the european commission and parliament 's invité to take further consideration to the sexospécificités . the problem is whether the millions of people - mainly women ) effectuent that work ; there is a very strong request but not the slightest régularisation applicable in this area . i believe that we must encourage the member states to réglementer ornamental via the directives on employment , in accordance with what has already been called for in the opinion of the european parliament on these directives . the people migrante is generally a collectif important in this sector , which requires measures spéciales , as the first-stop host spécialisés , who need to provide assistance is needed . this is an issue that affects the member states . the needs in terms of aid domestic fell considerably accrus in recent years , however , this situation does pratiquement not been taken into account in working life in general and in the rights and obligations rattachés in working life . ( the sitting was closed at 12 midnight ) ( extremely loud applause ) not only will need to create a system of internal peace and freedom , but we must also have the tallies with the us and coutumes which exist for decades within the european community and the european union . the first step to take in order to restructurer the constitution of the federal state is to set up a framework propice into a dialogue démocratique as wide as possible about the type of relationship between the two républiques . the result achieved is historic . you , the meps who représentez directly to the citizens of the member states of the european union , you who représentez european citizens , are the best placed to understand why this mere chance of becoming a member of the european union is extremely incertaine amongst the citizens of the current fry . reprenons 's session . it is , as you know , a matter of extreme importance and the greatest interest to the citizens and that would be the lesser of things that we can stop a decision today on this subject at a time of voting . the commission were in fact is that it would present a proposal delivering on this matter in the six months , and it has taken floor . there are already at this stage in the european union a practice in terms of access to documents , and we must not forget the citizens ' gallant and many member states progressistes are fighting for years for greater transparency . the report calls still to be perfectionné within the european parliament and i therefore believe that it will be make further improvements here too . we are pleased to see in this report , the principle important that we support equally vehemently as the committee on budgetary control . when they are now offered to better acquainted with things that are not portées from their familiar with the media and certain interest groups so that they can more participate in the debate open and democratic , which is part of any significance to secure the trust in the eu . the committee on petitions voudrait that we raccourcisse periods of waiting until publishing documents . as soon as secrecy will no longer justified , the document will naturally be accessible to the public . i would also like to point out that all citizens must have safety so that we can have access to documents in all these forms as possible . the dogme of political responsibility must not be confondu with citizens ' rights in terms of access to documents . i hope launch an appeal to the rapporteurs in order to remove from the rules relating to disclosure any reference to the rights of members . furthermore , i désire urge all colleagues to ensure that their interests are the emportent not on those of the public . in these sectors , access to documents is not guaranteed , and it is refused , not only to citizens , but also in the european parliament which , moreover , does not even officially informed and consulted on the documents fundamentals . there is , however , an important pointe of bitterness . mr president , i would like to begin by thanking mr cashman for his excellent work carried out in the context of his report . we are dealing with a report that is very important , constituting an element majeure of what we might call the new principle of transparency in the european union . ( affliction technical ) this is not only to encourage the principle of access illimité to all documents , but also for us to open the doors during the meetings of the council , so that it takes more in future its decisions in the silence and secrecy , which allows subsequently to others to pratiquer the dénigrement good market towards brussels . i would also mention the work which has centred on the exclusions . our citizens see europe as being undemocratic , as a place where we stand for decisions to huis closed . in accordance with article 255 of the treaty , the regulation proposed should be adopted before 1 may 2001 , i.e. two years after the entry into force of the treaty of amsterdam . now , i should like to touch upon certain problems which , at the moment , prevents the commission to accept certain amendments . as was pointed out précédemment , we can , in some cases , be in agreement , in principle , with the amendments , but we must work together in the field of technical and administrative , for example , regarding the amendments relating to the classement documents and the register . we do not have a document writes , and i would like , for the future too , the commission diffuse members , in writing , its recommendations . welcome we welcome the status improved accordé off atténuation risks of credit , particularly assurances that can be offertes by small businesses . report ( a5-0321 / 2000 ) by mr blokland on the draft joint , approved by the committee conciliation , with parliament and council directive on waste incineration [ c5-0371 / 2000 - 1999 / 0289 ( cod ) ] mr president , may i ask the liberal group , and i will ask also as a co-rapporteur , to show a little more practical ? the report from the vote on the november ii correspond so with a view shared the groups ppe-de and pse . i propose , therefore , to postpone the vote on the report villiers at the november ii . i have followed the rules which i have been transmis in the service of the actions of the sitting plenary and the house certainly did not decide otherwise . as chairman of sitting today , i do not have to tell you that this ; as a fellow member , i can tell you that i agree with you . apart from the position negatively adopted during the first stage , when the european parliament has dénoncé the dangers in great britain , and in the second stage , when the scandale was rage in great britain , measures have actually been limited to montenegro , without being launched a programme direct control harsh and restructuring of stockfarming at european level . that is why we want to make four major leçons , which must take into account in future . and we have voted in favour of this resolution municipality . the increase in the number of cases of the variante of disease in creutzfeld-jakob in angleterre . the situation in france have imposed on the agenda , with more power , the question of the ' mad cow disease ' ( bse ) . by crainte of semer the panique among our citizens , or by souci to prevent disasters mercantile , some governments do not transmis before it is useful information dues to the commission or have not made at the first manifestation of phenomenon unsafe , on blocage immédiat consumer products in question and to the ban on their exports . farmers cannot cope with this crisis alone : a plan of back-up cattle breeding is to put in place as well as measures to reconquérir consumer confidence . the inability of all eu institutions européennes ( council , commission and parliament - to define a political community germane which meets the needs of security of the member states which are most directly concerned will certainly pose problems to hierarchies between the contraintes single-market and the requirements of health and safety of our peoples . we have achieved after many discussions with the council , satisfaction on several points . the time of décharges button today at the end , they need to shift the emphasis from the technologies more bénéfiques on the environment . do participate in the process , the entités social , particularly the representatives of the groups sentient visés by the programme . indeed , if we have to be congratulated for their return to growth and lower unemployment , we must not occulter the persistance or even the aggravation of inequities ! i take the view that the rapporteur is right when he plaide for greater involvement of the public authorities , the social partners and civil society in the measures to be taken for vaincre poverty and social exclusion . the ' workers poor ' , which most are women , employed in time partial , on rabais and in the précarité most all-embracing , rejoignent the cortège of misère that the speech official on resuming ignorent superbement . there are three years , the prime minister has created the unity of social exclusion , which coordonne action from the government to reduce social exclusion in concevant solutions coincide with the problems similarly nature . it is now to installations comprising more than 60 rotors which couvrent a superficie équivalente thousands of terrains of football . dependency , which is approximately 50 % for the entire european union , threatens to move on to 70 % by 2020 in the absence of development of renewable energy . it goes without saying that the use of nuclear energy and the stockage waste radioactifs must comply with the consignes safety more modern and more efficient . we must therefore find a source of energy already present in nature , but which has remained inexploitée as long as no one has developed a technique for the uniformed extraire . the preparations for asem 4 should be an opportunity to reaffirm the requirement of democracy , on the one hand , by providing information and the intervention of assemblées elected and civil society - comprising including the establishment of a forum for social - and , secondly , in prenant fully into account the social rights , environmental and human . dernièrement , parliament has been a victim of certain équivoques and even some criticisms . we have noticed that he was subjected to the same avatars that the european parliament for its débuts , he had had to batailler and continuait to do so in order to obtain more powers , more resources , more than presence and to make valoir its représentativité . parliament in central america , along the lines of the european parliament must gain in prestige , in credibility and in legitimacy in itself basant on the activities of the groups polices , because the lives of parties are , or at least should be the reflection faithful companies that they represent . as regards human rights , we support , since 1990 , the programmes of cooperation in favour of the human rights through training and increased awareness in this area . ( b5-0855 / 2000 ) by mr van den bos , on behalf of the eldr . the extreme confusion which has caractérisé fundamentals électoral over recent weeks in côte d ' ivoire , but so far model of economic , is symptomatique from a country in crisis , shrinking economy , désespérance social and by then , chaos policy . the political leaders , military and commemorative must all work through , so that a reconciliation nacional . we need that throughout the debate on the ivoirité . this debate fumeux which is no different from the introduction of the preference nacional . we combattons in our own countries , including the consequence logique and ultimate is the establishment of the purification ethnic , either totally combattue , and abducted any reference or connotation on the ivoirité in the constitution ivoirienne . he also supported the revision of the constitution , designed to exclure its principal opponent , watara resulting from the fact that their parents were not both ivoiriens . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , even if , at the unlike other states to africa central and western , the côte d ' ivoire was formerly a havre stability and democracy , this state encounters but for many years of tensions ethnic and religious . it has also been the abus power on the part of the previous government in accordance with the president bédié , which was finally led to a grip on power violente by the military . we condemn the violences ethnic and primarily those responsible politicians whose démagogie have resulted . the next item is the debate municipality on the motions for resolutions suivantes : the meeting coming from the eu and the anase at laos in december , we offers an opportunity idéale to demonstrate that we utterly condemn vigour this regime . i do , on demeurant , nor is it true that our own ministers régleraient then the situation . the anase has révélée in every sense of the word , a tigre of paper as a failure to meet the terrible events in burma . the junte stated that she had intending to try to reduce to néant the whole of the party . the past is responsible and , obviously , this is a difficult situation . these improvements nuances - that we should certainly not with the author of the amendments from the socialist group , mr sakellariou - have been carried out during the last few years and have led to a situation which is certainly more tragic , but is still désastreuse and which is not in any case not enough to meet the challenges which are those vietnam here today . mr swoboda , the european parliament is an institution flexible and efficient . it would , however , fortunate that in hanoi , president u.s. does concentrates not only on the strengthening of cooperation réciproque , but the rende precisely dépendante of firm promises , on the part of vietnam , bettering radicalement the misérable situation which is règne in respect of human rights . i urge the council and commission to protest strongly against the infringements flagrantes freedom of culte by authorities vietnamiennes . similarly , the process has enabled the signing of an agreement on cooperation between the commission and vietnam in 1995 . the elements that we have introduits were naturally included in this proposal for a resolution . i am in full agreement with the fact that we must piercing bring aid , but we aiderions even better in changeant the situation which is the result of their misère and those of innombrables other people around the world . the issues which we are talking about the means and the long term . mr president , commissioner , the inondations which have shaken in recent weeks various regions of the north of italy , and other european countries - great britain , spain , ireland and france - is again two problems in this parliament : that of the intervention contingency peculiar to provide aid to people , the communities and companies involved , and that of a policy in the longer term , aimed at preventing the répétition in disaster naturelles of this magnitude . that is the area of transport which requerra measures that are as important , given its steady development - more than 38 % , according to forecasts , during the next decade . the debate is closed . this is perhaps one of us and coutumes of this parliament , but it is extremely difficult to leave believing that the institution mp european downs commitments on a subject as celui-là , is looking to entrust a task as one of the european commission with a too low turn-out . ( parliament rejette demand ) the policy of economic and social e.u. , which has led to the weakening of power purchasing and opportunities for workers to everything that has to do with versement of contributions , annexed to the emergence of new diseases and to the immunité companies pharmaceutiques , have led to an increase steeply spending on health . for the rest , a broad in scope was thus paved the insurers lacks , as the only condition that they do sélectionnent not ( initially ) the sick and the primes insurance by pathologie . anyone who does reçoit and does dépense little money has moralism . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , i am very pleased to be able to speak in the presence of a group of visiteurs originating from my belle constituency and which i welcome cordialement . this présuppose , however , that the établissements dispose of a period of time enough for them to prepare the new rules . the report makes exigencies of a consensus croissant tendant to highlight the shortcomings of the regulation currently under consideration developments in the sector financial over the past ten years . yes fuller consideration of the techniques of atténuation of risk and we say ' yes ' to an extension of the basic principles expounded by the committee on bâle . similarly , we welcome the important contribution to this report on the whole process . finally , and this is a point clé , we are certainly aware of the need to respect the balance institutionnel laid down in the treaty . the vote will take place tomorrow at 9 a.m . before i finish , allow me , mr president , to take this opportunity to congratulate mr jacob söderman , the praise for the work he has done in the fight against the poor administration and , consequently , for a better approximation of european citizens with regard to the lives of the community institutions . mr president , the european parliament has always affirmé , at a very positive and conform to the tradition which is one of the civil service in the countries nordiques , that it fallait strengthen and consolidate the position of the ombudsman . the vote will take place tomorrow at 9 a.m . after all , access to the documentation is a right civilian root-andbranch and no document ceases to be important for a nominee as those relating to its examens . we have paru legitimate that a candidate country can have access to its copie corrigée because access to documents is a fundamental right , recognized elsewhere in the charter of fundamental rights that we have to adopt this week . and that is how it should go . the example should be followed by all the other institutions and bodies such as the committee on petitions has recommended . the citizens of the european union should have a feeling heartening when they are faced with the institutions of the community . and what is new in the circonstance , is to follow the best practice and to avoid anything that , according to our experience , affecterait its credibility in the member states . as regards the other institutions , it is they that depends on the possibility of adopting the procedures décrites in this report or in the requêtes of the european ombudsman . the minutes of thursday yesterday was distribué . if they are empêchés by a disaster unavoidable , it is a non-respect of democracy . however , if they do not donating not worth the trouble to come , they do not deserve not to participate in the vote . the criteria for caution cofunding adopted are justifiés , but we must also look at other aspects of the matter , especially the coefficient of solvabilité , which is a paramètre of weighted by type of contrepartie which gives an approximation of the risk of credit noticeable in the manner of a bank . fixation provisoire the college of european police ( cep ) this cooperation policière is fundamental to arriving at a major objective , which is to restore to european citizens a level of safety elevated inside the european area of freedom , security and justice . the enlargement of the european union , in étendant the area of free movement of citizens , must be accompanied by measures top-up of security and coexistence peace-oriented between member states . according to what i can see , conditions in the prisons french and portugaises are very different . therefore , if you want the common rules , you devrez first define these measures , if not , you serez confronted by a training that will be able to take the aspects which are most variés . but , thanks to the work of mr posselt , it is also expected that the training of staff police should include also human rights and protection , as is currently very suited to the idea of creating a collège police virtuel which exploiterait the possibilities of the internet . but we are here in strasbourg , to a house pratiquement déserte , to hear something almost incroyable . this is a good idea and in the european union , where citizens enjoy freedom of movement and of trade and the right to be established , where the voyageurs from scotland can go into sicile or greece , it is only logique to rely on what is développe a system collaborative aimed at maintaining the rule of law . in the netherlands , the police are entraînée at the dédramatisation conflicts and to the tolerance répressive as part desquelles the existence of sous-cultures , of minorities ethnic , on the use of églises as refuges for people with no statute for séjour légal and the organisation of protestations policies are considérées as phenomena social normaux . those who believe in the right solutions that they are defending should not be peur of the confronter with appropriate solutions to autrui . i hope they will be a starting point for the future . this is a good illustration of what we are beginning to désigner today by the name of europe in networks , a europe which puts the nations in liaise direct , without entrench the superstructures inutiles . the majority of cases abduction of children are being treated properly and in a proper by central authorities in all member states . we must therefore filling this gap for reasons of fairness , of réalisme faced with the development sociologique and equal rights and obligations for all citizens of the european union . in time , we support this measure and we shall be happy to vote in its favour . because of our sympathy for the purpose redefined , we adhérons the measures proposed . the visit of a day is clearly of people who are often the turn of the world to see a child . the catching of position of the european parliament on this , as well as the jurisprudence of the european court of justice , confirms this view of the commission . i know that the fifa has already played the clock and has attendu far too long before i respond to the statement lip-service by the commission émise in 1998 . it is quite natural that the european union is represented in the future in the ama by the commissioner responsible affairs sportives . verdict from the uk to apply a tax on hauliers not uk-based it is clear that ireland is a very small market , but a market approachable . however , the greater part of what we achetons springs from the united kingdom . in conclusion , this debate on the european parliament is prématuré . however , i welcome the fact and the statement by commissioner vitorino , which makes it clear that the government in britain has the right to introduce a system of euro-vignette provided to respect the rules and the regulations already in force . mr president , the contributions and the péages are clearly of themes sensitive and can you confirm in the case of austria when we discuss continuellement on this subject and cherchons continuellement solutions on a optimisation of the trafic road . this system is not discriminatory towards the drivers and haulage contractors from other countries in europe for the benefit of drivers uk-based . this routier-là paie more than there are grounds for his vignette except if there is a paying special on the basis per diem . on 22 november , i.e. the day after the 25e anniversary of the crowning glory of roi juan carlos , which smoothed the path to democracy in spain , one of the hautes figures of that democracy is , in its turn , to pay for his life 's faith in liberty , in the tolerant and in compliance with the other . would the gardez therefore all précieusement . the european union 's position in these negotiations is centrée on the protection of integrity environnementale the kyoto protocol in the areas of the change to vegetable sols and the sylviculture , on the issue of ' wells absorption ' , on the link between the mechanism kyoto and action by the member nationale , known as ' supplémentarité ' , and on the compliances . to prepare the intergovernmental session , the eu should not reopen the discussion on all the questions , but is centrer on issues prioritised , particularly on the machinery of ' wells absorption ' , on the ' supplémentarité ' and on a system of ensuring conformity plausible . mr prescott has now reached during the course of flottaison and we know not what amount of time it restera to flot . last point : i think that this is good that the commission has remained firm on the issue of the reduction of emissions , especially because it is extremely difficult to mesurer with exactitude the scale of the declines to viser . nuclear energy does not have an opportunity to make a come-back . but we must go further in bonn in may 2001 , by introduisant conditions of equality . we should do away with finding a compromise at the conference in bonn , which will take place in may 2001 . the challenge that we have to pick up on climate change is undoubtedly one of the greatest challenges before us is waiting for the 21st century , if we want as a world where languishing in the future . it is equally to the inclusion partielle of wells from carbone , such as the plantation of forests supplémentaires . the hague conference is going to continue , and you yourself have said , commissioner , in the spring of next year in bonn . madam president , thank you , commissioner wallström , for your speech . if there is clearly an area where there was no désunion , is that of the relationship between the european parliament delegation and the commission . we cannot be allowed to fail to reach an agreement at the next meeting of the cop6 . we have been very constructifs and have been negotiating until the last minute of conversations in the hague . you have the floor , mr president-in-office . on the coordination of national systems of social security with regard to taxation , on questions of asylum , visas and of emigration , in the negotiations with trade in the field of services - about a very important - and some countries have yet to serious problems . i ajoute that the division of seats in the european parliament has not yet been agreed . reaching an agreement which will allow the union 's fonctionner after further adhésions , all those who are being prepared at the moment actively , is a matter of importance in the future of the european union and the european union élargie . your presidency is of course invitée . it will be transmis , and we dosing hope , of course , entériné at nice . you see , therefore , that the discussions will be very denses at nice . in a union of 27 member states or more , the requirement for unanimity will simply have to do , of paralyser progress in any area where it will be maintained . you have raised the question of codecision with parliament . ( applause ) the challenge is the reunification of our old continent . this challenge is enlargement without precedent in terms of scale and that is to what nice must be prepared . madam president , the aim is most important of the nice summit is the enlargement of the european union and the preparation of the union for enlargement . madam president , mr president-in-office , mr santer , until now , one cannot say that the fifteen are covered itself with glory . this method is not good . the proposals are now portrayed in order to allow decisions by qualified majority can be taken into 49 areas . the decisions by qualified majority supprimeront the right of veto accordé to democracies mps from the member states , but that does trampling not e.u. democracy parliamentarian . mr president , europe has bother anyone 's dirige . it has need of clarification , to choices , to dynamism . the principle of chantage à la proclamation do we find unacceptable in terms of the conclusions of the european council in biarritz , even if it were strings . yes , we believe that the conclusions of nice will include a statement inviting the commission to rédiger a framework directive in this area . i am prononcerai into the treaty of nice , when i have seen the results , but i am about to live a experiment rather schizophrénique in entendant discussions here today . in amsterdam , they were recalés , and the classe should again be present at nice . if the difference between large and small countries is too important to the council , it is to craindre that the european union does not traverse , in a few years , a serious crisis of legitimacy , since the smaller countries would be sentiront more at home and that they will have peur no longer be able to defend their identity . the president of france and the prime minister appear to be more concerned about their own future policy than that of europe . the fact that we do not include the text in the treaty and to do subscribe to politically could give rise to considerable problems of interpretation of legal . secondly , i would underline the significance of equip our european strong institutions in order to contrebalancer an empty institutionnel compared with the accélération which took place in terms of economic with the euro . the objectives proclamés of this review consistent to create institutions energy-efficient who are now adéquates for a europe élargie and , at the same time , to reduce the deficit of democracy , which , indeed , exist . but it is also of the restructuring of the committee 133 itself : make it much more responsible , in veillant to ensure that its agenda and its conclusions are available and that its composition is wide and open . mr president , when i say that the issues épineuses abordées at nice will disparaîtront not if they are the subject of any agreement at the summit , i will speak not only to the president-in-office but also to all the governments of member states . the operation of the procedure for codecision for the last two years shows that this procedure works well . as dirais-je that at first , we should already be admitted that the area of trade policy will be included in the extension of qualified majority voting . âgée of seven years , it was contrainte of fuir his country cope with the progress of the army rouge , is dissimulant in the fossés to prevent the flames of aircraft soviet . mr méndez de vigo just referred to justifiably the charter . we cannot in expected more from him . the agreement which is over-detailed from day to day is certainly not the most minor dénominateur shared , it is unfortunate that a very small , a minuscule dénominateur jointly . mr president , i would like to thank the members of parliament because i find this debate of high quality . it is therefore by no means not to the proclamer . this is not a question of transparency . indeed , the system of the rotation égalitaire is also the large countries which , at any time given , could not have to commissaire , like everyone else . i believe that parliament will be able to see that the european union has been dotée mechanisms institutionally améliorés which ought to make it possible to affronter the wake of the development of the european union that we rassemble manner . the vote will take place tomorrow . mr president , i would like to associate with the statement by mr van orden . i am totally opposed to it that which whatsoever jeopardizes the minister invité , fut-il turkish . it goes without saying that we must , in this house in a democratic europe , to guarantee the safety of all our invités and all those who penetrates under our toit . the minister for health , with the excuse that the pastilles are not nocives and under the slogan " soignons cancer produced by the marijuana ' , has sapé dignity humane in calling for the liberalisation of drugs . it is quite a bad way , not to say a camouflet , for our parliament , and unless we consider that the members européens did nothing to say about human rights , even though they may come to vote on a very large majority of the charter of fundamental rights , they will be absent from this forum for the european union which , last year , they were fraught with dialoguer with ngos and the institutions . we have said quite here . the truth of the european parliament , like the commission , was the view , even before the amsterdam summit , that the european ideal would be to have a vice-président with a strong endosserait the dual role as responsible for foreign policy and of high representative assumant liability and an obligation to individual vis-à-vis the council . as he fit before the summit in feira in voting for a resolution on 15 june , the european parliament will tomorrow should adopt a text which résume its position on the eve of the council in nice . the development of a common european security and defence policy is a major breakthrough in the european project and demand , therefore , the clarification of the framework institutionnel interrelated . in nice , the european council should adopt a number of decisions , and i quote now . for the first debate , earlier this year , the commission établira a picture of brink , country by country , for the current budgetary écoulée , which montrera state commitments , the décaissements and the montants restant to be paid to the main programmes financés by budget-related community and by the fed . we have travaillé also on the issue of regional cooperation , notion which provoquait some resistance from countries in this area , which do not want to be réenfermés in the past , and they are sortis , and i believe that we can say that , thanks to the summit , they have realised that there is no contradiction between a regional cooperation and their opponent , their rapprochement with regard to the european union , particularly through the stabilisation and association process that has been confirmed and précisé on that occasion . fiji had been here before , a summit with the inde , under portuguese presidency and a ministerial meeting will take place with the anase this is not a reason for us décourager . i would like to remind the variété : humanitarian aid , évacuation of ressortissants , prevention of conflicts , but also separated from the strength of juries belligérantes . it is fonde , of course , on the autonomy of decision of the european union and on the recognition of a voluntary and political commitments . it has personnifié more than anyone resolving conflicts in a region of the world which i know very well and has been given a recognition worldly justified for his efforts . i find it quite extraordinary cover , which has benefited the creation of this power in the country i know best . i would like to thank mrs lalumière for having put forward a report on the prevention of conflicts that the commission prépare with the high representative for the european council in nice . thank you very much , commissioner christopher patten . this will be there , in my view , the real test for the european union . citizens ' impatients is plaignent that the machine bureaucratique within the union is of a sloth inconcevable . but the citizens , too , are to have access to information and documents in a position as wide as possible . the proposals currently enjoy the flou as fully as to what should be this role . with a drapeau at european your car , you passez everywhere , as far as déshérité of camps of refugees . that is why , mr president , europe must , in my view , will decide to act now . if we europeans , we will manage not to play , regardless of the united states , a role influent in resolving this conflict , nothing will no longer rely on what we are attributes trustworthiness as médiateurs in other foyers of crisis . however , your commitment personnel do replaces no formal légitimation democratic politics common european security and defence . there are some points of the report by mrs lalumière , i cannot accept . during the vote outcome of tomorrow , i voterai against the report . the non-exploitation of this wide range of instruments for prevention of crises is révélera long-term mistaken and in this respect , the explications council 's view that the resolutions have already been adopted and things suivront their way , let me suffisent not ! as you comprenez , we votons against both these reports and we engageons to unite all our forces against the policies that they vented ... thirdly , as olaf palme as was once suggéré , we must create a corridor dénucléarisé from the baltic to the sea slick . i should like to congratulate mrs lalumière on her report . the brok report refers to the post of high representative for the cfsp . i déplore the attitude of some of my colleagues , mr van orden and others - because i believe that my homologues originating from the other side of the mer in ireland have much to add to this issue : the tradition , experience and practice . the european parliament , in conjunction with the national parliaments , is in our opinion the body most indiquée for this purpose . i believe that the teachings of these recent events we serviront when we accepterons the need to develop a policy of defending europe and to set up capabilities are afférentes . that is , in my view a composante equally important for the integration of europe that is the currency unique . i also believe that the interplay between the various forms is a propriété , is a possibility , pertaining to the european union and that the work that we have before us , if this policy is progressing and is consolide is to develop a true culture of european prevention and the treatment of conflicts . i believe that a dialogue positive will develop . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , ladies and gentlemen , the commission 's resignation , in mars 1999 has révélé the need to reform its structures and their methods of working . the reform , if it can be drawn up upwards , must be clear and exposée the unions , for all staff , and that all staff are actually involved in this whole approach . this provision demandera 's time , but it is inevitable and essential for the reform . the reform of the commission is an act of importance in the future of our institutions . in rédigeant my report , i was able to étudier not only the white paper , but also the second report of the committee of independent experts as well as the resolution adopted by parliament on 19 january last , proposed by michiel van hulten , on the work dudit committee of experts . the court of auditors notes in his opinion that it does oppose superseded by abolishing the visa precondition , provided that this method is remplacée by other procedures which provide guarantees , at least comparable , and that stakeholder different from the intervenant financial can be impliqués . everywhere , the large groups deviennent more ouvertes , more transparent ; they recourent at new ways of using the technology of the information ; they are écartent forms of traditional organizational vertical and procèdent on an exchange of information , both in terms homemade than with other organisations . mr president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , despite its scope , the content of the white paper presented by commissioner kinnock will soulève not directly with regard institutionnel . we have already discussed this après-midi within the framework of the debate on foreign policy together . finally , we need to address the épineux problem of the proposal to put to the early retirement . the décentralisation of financial control within each directorate-general is an important step but that does fonctionnera unless the staffing is convenablement formé , if the resources available are adequate and whether the responsibility of hues hiérarchiques is implemented properly . we must give to the institution and its director of réelles susceptibility to achieve the best managerial ability . with regard to the procedure disciplinaire , we see here , too many promises but so far , no settles clear ' no declaration states on how these rules must be complied with even the issue of external does not yet irrevocably réglée . this transformation is indeed necessary to servir dieu in a fair and cannot be inspirée by certain rules . as for any novelty amending the scenarios drawn up , it is clear that we must be careful . however , we retirerons amendment 6 and demanderons a vote by division in the last part of amendment no 3 because we do not believe that the system which sway in the bce corresponde at the situation . during my last mandate in this parliament , the commission president is jacques delors , and it travaillait to corners of the commissioner brittan and , above decreasing , commissioner cockfield . mr president , honourable commissioners , ladies and gentlemen , it is with a standby apposite that we accompagnons this reform . issues such as the crisis over bse , the flambée price of oil and the greenhouse effect upon are a large scale of europe . the public must also have the feeling that the commission is really accessible and transparent . for the european parliament , the reform is a matter crucial to which it can exert its influence as the budgetary authority and legislative . it définit more important to procedures incisive allowing for an official , for various canaux , to condemn the misdemeanours potential within the institution which the emploie or outside it . so i am sure that we will have the pleasure of your views on the future . allow me , mr garriga polledo , to say briefly that the categories of financial perspectives are maintenues . the reform must be supported and accepted by the staff of the commission . we feel that a reform cosmétique at this time of change head-on . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , first i would like to highlight the quality of the own-initiative report by mrs sauquillo on reforming the commission and its impact on the effectiveness of relations with the european union with the countries in travelator of development . we want greater responsibility . before i talk about aid to certain projects , we must try to eliminate all the causes of exploitation , in seeking and in poursuivant those who are sick slammed profit , which have taken advantage of the people who live in kosovo . it is precisely because mr nielson is loyal to the responsibility collegial that it défendra doubtless this proposal this evening . we seems even more serious than in the commission 's proposal , the separating functions should be maintained . in 2001 , for example , the responsibilities that financial will déconcentrées towards 22 délégations , 15 délégations supplémentaires bénéficieront of an update of their installations computer and 40 posts supplémentaires of officials will be attribués services externally . maritime safety but the erika , as the ievoli sun , were not sea-going vessels frenchman . in fact , this subject occupe the top of the agenda of the commission since the shipwreck fatal for the erika , there are 11 months . we hope that the committee on transport ' of 21 december will deliver its pierre off édifice of defining a common european institutions to improve genuinely maritime safety , in adoptant a common position on the whole of the three texts ; we want to ensure that this is the case . i think this is not far away , but we must ensure that this agreement will be applied . i understand and appreciate the souci 's minister for us to finissions as quickly as possible with these two reports , and therefore i juge has priori positive his proposal aimed at what we débattions on this subject in december . all this has led to draft a report mp on the modification of the directive , which proposes improvements to the different aspects conduisant in strengthening the system of classification , as a tendered and instrument valid for guaranteeing safety in trafic at sea . nevertheless , the legacy of for years in which the offal were simply déversés is now up to our lives , and recoverable sometimes we hanter , often with the consequences grave . to this end , the publication of information is essential because it is a means vital for the public to acquire any renseignements , just as tses , inter alia , the establishment of numbers telephone urgently . i attends much of the second set of proposals and the creation of a european agency for maritime safety . your comment is respectable , but we can only talk about the results that have been examinés in council . we know that controls by the state of the port ne did not high rate of maritime safety . we know that all the classification societies do effectuaient not their control technicality in a correct and sérieuse , but rather a bâclée . we should not only the credibility and we cherchons to regagner either menacée by of bad agissements from the commission . that does not faced with these responsibilities should remain outside our waters and of our ports . the report watts durcit measures against vessels displaying risks serious or battant pavillon of convenience , without deleting these flags . i am glad , though , that the commission 's proposals were accepted the principales requests made by the elected representatives of the seaboard french : stoppage of oil in simple coque , strengthening controls in the ports , and evaluation of classification societies . i agree with such an idea of an incentive to impose the enregistreurs data from voyage . the guarantees of navigabilité of a vessel require measures important with regard to the societies accountable and to the inspectorate , as has already been said . in short , measurements are facultatives for getting the safe in terms wished . that is bad for men . everyone in lips , and i think it is fully justified by the 25 % nowadays required for this control by the state of the port are not yet achieved . the time has passed by a simple commitment to aucuns anyway prédisent quite difficult to achieve . as regards the social classification , i would like to take this opportunity - it is also my task - stress one important element : the point central to the discussion now appears to be put on liability . with regard to controls harbours , we must make the regulations more sévère . the laxisme vis-à-vis big business is , of the signal that they are more puissantes that institutions selected . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , the question regarding the safety of ships , and therefore the safety of passengers and environmental protection , is certainly an extremely serious . the reports that have been tabled are along these lines . we agree with the imposition of a threshold for the préjudices personnels or the décès and the préjudices material in laissant member states the opportunity to meet these limits . the new technologies and the improvements in the conception of ships jouent in this area as a role determinant too . we need to avancions towards a consensus on the highest standards possible for a regulation and safety at sea . i am pleased to announce that the commission will give its support for many amendments tabled in the context of these three reports . the commission can accept amendments nos 6 , 7 and 8 , but it can only partly accept amendment no 1 . the omi must normalement adopt formellement the timetable for decommissioning at its meeting of april next . the task of the commission is looking at it from confirm that the social classification continues to fulfil the criteria for quality desired by the directive ; the commission effectue also monitor the performance of classification societies . the commission welcomes the support expressed in favour of the boundary certified . once again , this incident shows how urgent to adopt measures at community boosted , with prevention and rehabilitation , for the protection of our seas . mr turco , i have listened carefully to your message and i will be made . ah , which is generally positive . with regard to the two other reports , in other words , the report on the classification societies and the report on controls harbours , there are some points of view divergent , and parliament is taking the approach to the most rigorous on most issues . madam president , i wish to submit a proposal to amend the amendment to that effect , so that it starts with these words : " urges 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 white paper on reform of the commission ( aspects relating to the committee on budgetary control ) ( com ( 2000 ) 0200 - c5-0445 / 2000 - 2000 / 2215 ( cos ) ) report mckenna ( a5-0336 / 2000 ) the impunité capital is reinforced by the privatization of classification societies , passées in the hands of boat-owners , and by the inexistence to control real on the part of the national authorities and by the complicité over past . that is why it is good that the rapporteurs watts , vachetta and piétrasanta has tried to fill the gaps subsistant even in the commission 's proposal . the responsibility for the implementation of these measures is based squares with the member states . the oil-based monocoque cannot continue to navigate here if , indeed , they disparaissent after 2005 , 2010 or 2015 . however , mr hatzidakis made proposals which restreignent those within the commission . the promotion of a regulation strictest internationally should remain a fundamental objective of our policy on safety at sea . it is particularly important to emphasise that the principle whereby we pay the pollueur must be fully implemented . this community action must be doublée of a reactivation of the omi which , dotée of a real power of police and enforce the code ism , would be an instrument solace , along the lines of europol . as long as the cost of that violation of the rules are inférieurs to those of the observance of these , companies désireuses of engranger a bénéfice maximum voudront continue to make the wrong choices . preparation of the nice council instead of drawing the human rights and social rights upwards , the charter facilitera the operations aimed at the derive from the bottom . hélas , this concept is quite absente proposals for a resolution . if , as far as i have always regretted the fact that the prime minister , lionel jospin , has just expressed during this six-month term ' because of cohabitation ' , i know the impulsions steep he has given up to its ministers and i want to say that . with regard to the social sphere , the proposals are very timides and there are no longer content protagonist on the commitments entered into at the lisbon summit , particularly regarding the need to reinforce the cohesion of economic and social . for that reason , any decision on the development of the eu should only be taken if it is in danger of éloigner citizens of europe . the british wanting to a reform which rende europe more responsible and more effective . this text gives grounds for the future - and increasingly lointain ) enlarges to ask the reinforcement of a system already long breath . now , the torchon does brûle not only between the " grandees ' and ' smaller-denomination ' , it brûle also between the " grandees ' . . ( sv ) we consider bienvenu this report , which raises many tendencies essentielles regarding the development of the common foreign and security policy , and we support it . like every year , this report rituel of the european parliament , embodied in principle to the stock-taking annual cfsp , recapitulates in fact the method of connue of glissements progressifs which consistent , starting with a brèche in nature fédéraliste , obtained in one area in particular to try constantly to expand on mépris agreements as decisions of the european councils . in bavardant with me , it has heard that there is now starting to organize a force for military states of europe , a strong ready to intervene in order to maintain peace in europe and in its parages . secondly , there is not the european parliament to define the ability of which should have a strong european intervention and if , in this connection , the capacity for action must be seafaring and aérienne . the conflicts which surviendront in the future will not be solved by interfering with military , but by means of a policy aimed at the judiciary in social , economic and ecological . we are radicalement opposed to this european army , just like to íáôï and to our own army nacional . the formulations concerning , for example , on the cfsp and nato , i paraissent go much too far , when it comes to using the ' threat to the employment of force " as means of exerting pressure in the preventive actions belligerence . that contrevient directly to the charter of the united nations . ten years after the bouleversements which have secoué eastern europe , the ' european plan for peace ' which parlent these reports is that we in the wrong signal launched in applicant countries . only six of these points contiennent of passages abordant about it . sadly , one of the buts completely clear is that outrepasser the laws of national criticizes the avortement or even to condemn or to cancel the traditions of religious opposées off avortement . if they under-going were informées , several dizaines of thousands of women involved inhabitant eu seraient undoubtably heureuses to learn that we penchons today on a regulation on the work of domicile in the economy informelle . mrs smet proposes such that we should draw up a definition of europe 's domestic work . the need for domestic work should be taken into account when drawing up legislation relating to employment . they have versé their contributions pension to the various governments , national , which the forefathers disappear prestement as to habiles prestidigitateurs . finally , the group union for europe of nations recalls forcefully that citizens of the european union hoping for more than ever , measurements of reform and the recrutements is traduisent by taking account of the diversity of opinion and the views that are being expressed in our countries . as regards the resources humaines , the merit of agents and greater transparency with regard to the common personnel in general should become the points forts of the new reform of administration . on the occasion of the declaration of vote , i would like to highlight and to emphasise the fact that parliament has unfortunately not all the powers that it should have . i would like to finish by virtue of procedural motion . indeed , mr barón crespo , the new are contradictory . this is not a request from the socialist group . that is precisely why we are experiencing difficulties : it is a summit prominent and just what we are going to tell us engagera . i must point out that the commission is réunira tomorrow après-midi so first of all like to look into this wake up to the conclusions of the intergovernmental conference . ( parliament approved the proposal ) perhaps you would be reconnaissante to receive a favourable this requête . and i wish to condemn the fact message : voici few days ago , one of those who are experiencing a hunger strike in support of inmates in euphemistically assassiné to rotterdam through a commando ' loups gris ' . this would clearly not been necessary if the council had accordé in june shunned more sponsored - or his attention , quite simply , to our recommendation for the first reading and to the proposal as amended by the european commission , which abondait in our view . thirdly , we must determine whether the provisions that we approve contribueront effectively to improve the internal market , whether they are proportionnelles for objective visé . the second concern , such strictly legal , we did , however incités to make us more closely the interdépendance between harmonisation of the market and the protection of health , by following closely the precepts découlant considerations on the basis desquels the court of justice has recently annulé the directive on advertising . only one reading partiale of these motivations can lead to the conclusion that these two aspects are incompatibles . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , eighty cases fatal for the new variante of disease in creutzfeld-jakob in europe and europe , the council of ministers , the commission , parliament décident to prohibit the animal-based meal and the non-entrée of bufs âgés over 30 months in food-chain without test pre-condition . we believe it is normal that article 95 is the legal basis for this directive , together with article 133 - that the committee on the environment , public health and consumer policy proposes now in amendment no 1 . according to the court , a ban frontal advertising for tobacco cannot be justified on behalf of the operation of the internal market . with regard to the mentions such as " with a low teneur in goudron ' , ' mild ' and ' light ' , i remain persuadé that they are trompeuses . i am therefore opposed to amendments nos 10 and thirties . i would also like to talk of forced into the treaties . the rapporteur , mr maaten , has proposed , with good reason , to strengthen the legal basis with particular reference to a different article , article 133 relating to external trade , and has also proposed a number of modifications of certain articles in order to prevent this directive is contestée under the jurisprudence established by the judgment of the court of justice . i regret that the very heart of the committee on legal affairs and the internal market , some have taken positions in affirmant than the fact that the european court of justice on banning tobacco advertising on the tobacco products anéantit into some sort therein . indeed , as a member of the committee on the environment , public health and consumer policy , i had the attention staunchly attirée by various groups to put pressure on the need to réglementer more strictly presentation and sale of tobacco products in europe . despite this , and that is the comble , i can see in this directive no provision for a ban covering the cultivation of tobacco in the community , even though in countries such as greece , tobacco cultivé is so strong that under this directive , it would be criminal to the use of production . we must also thank him for the clarity with which he has outlined the legal basis . more than half a million people die inutilement every year in the european union in effects of smoking , and this figure is voué will increase if we do not take any action now . in my view , this legal basis would have not yet either , that is why it is right that the unions , for industry , and my colleagues évoquent here job losses . i would like to see through the option of avertissement by the photos . these clauses furnishing the advertising of listes of ingredients , research at european level , the measures to promote health for helping children not to fumer and not to be dépendant tobacco , the goudron , and the nicotine . this provision in the compromise was also present in the committee on the environment , public health and consumer policy . according to my reading of the amendment , the derogation would apply to article 3 , i.e. the teneurs in goudron , nicotine and monoxyde of carbone . but given the nature general of the directive , we cannot séparer to one another , and we must therefore show strictness everywhere . the creation of warnings to a large maximised for some major paquets would be a solution balanced . finally , 54 amendments to the total were submitted in the report , and i have the pleasure for me to inform the commission can accept 28-30 , either totally or partially . the argument headline in favour of these amendments and for a report at the end of a period of five years button instead of the enlargement of the european union , which , in the foulée the nice summit , is particularly relevant and appropriate . summertime is actually going to pair with a quality of life cofunding , the effects of positive for the period of summertime the emportant largely on the murky passagers related to change it . summertime is not the pierre of achoppement essential for our remains a common europe . checking only by the commission after five years is sufficient . we must also take into account the requirements which are coming up against the producers of ordinateurs and tachygraphes électroniques as well as calendriers and to agendas . madam president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , research medical , necessary for patients , must be approved so fast , not bureaucratique , in veillant but to comply with strict limits éthiques and in protecting the maximising the participants in a essay clinique against the abus . this is a distinction important that we are doing in our report . thus , even if some points of discorde with the council persist , let me remind you that the result that we cherchons to get through the adoption of this directive is the fruit of a long and fructueux work compromise emanates from mr liese , our rapporteur , whom i thank and congratulate on her approach participative and constructive and by the council that has been said coopératif and open to the amendments that the environment committee has adopted at second reading . i songe mainly on research in the context of the fight against cancer , but there is plenty of others . unfortunately , despite the measures taken in this area , new menaces and new affections themselves are day and , of often , the medication available only suffisent not to be cushion . it is up to the community medical investigating ways modern and more efficient to meet these challenges . the vote will take place tomorrow at 12 h thirties . what was agreed with the council and the commission and , of course , with the environment committee in parliament , for not having a second reading and be able to continue without heurts these programmes in avoiding any hiatus , is to prolongation of two years the four programmes , as requested by the commission , but to allouer payments per year in such a way that , if , in the intervalle , the new health programme is adopted , and between applicable , the prorogation and utilisation of funds for the second year are not necessary . on a more general note , it is high time that the member states are accordent to leave it to the european union , and on an issue légitimement supranationale , greater room for manoeuvre and a budget that consequence : the sicknesses , they will never know no frontiers . organizations international such as europol estiment that imports of drugs in the european union are actually still rising . public health is a policy of national and owes it to remain . the next item is the debate on the report ( a5-0355 / 2000 ) by mrs cerdeira morterero , on behalf of the committee on citizens ' freedoms and citizens ' rights , justice and home affairs , on the initiative of the republic portuguese-language with regard to the adoption of a framework decision on the status of victims in the framework of criminal procedure ( 9650 / 2000 - c5-0392 / 2000 - 2000 / 0813 ( cns ) ] . another alba international is the statement by the united nations on the fundamental principles of justice pertaining to the victims of crime and the victims of abus downturn , adopted by virtue of the resolution 40- / 34 of the un general assembly , on 29 november 1985 . you souvenez perhaps debates on the report di pietro which have been taking place there are some time in this house . this initiative concerns three aspects fundamental : the right of the victim to information , access to justice and the right to an indemnisation for the damage caused . what is most significatif lies , however , in my opinion , in the fact that we should finally self-awareness , within the union too , the need to change the viewpoint of which it considers the intervention of the state vis-à-vis the offences . the member states should be forced to create units police spéciales for the victims of crime . italy has asked several times to the extradition of this man , who has committed ions homicides in france , where lojacono circulate freely , doing so that he can finally purger his death . in terms of crime , the victim must always be placed at the centre of our concerns . as you have remarqué , the draft framework decision contains three types of measures different : firstly , it sets of rules minium concerning the rights of victims . secondly , it sets of rules custom-made . its aim is to take account of the situation individually , victims of infractions in one member state which is not their country of origin ; thirdly , it will encourage states to draw up measures to help the victims . it is already in support networking european-union-level services national aid to victims , in order to guarantee treatment suited to the victims , especially to those who do résident step in the country where the offence took place . approval of the minutes of the previous sitting mr varela , president of the committee on fisheries , responsible for this reason , has once again to speak . well then bravo ! during the trilogue on tuesday last , we still have brought a final retouche to state the joint council and parliament . we have succeeded in this way to a solution for the 2001 budget . we must pursue a reflection homemade on how , in the union 's policy of promotion , we transformerons requirements present in a procedure transparently . we have asked for the sake of that island and we have répondu : ' this is the innommable ' . the council has therefore proceeded at its second reading of the budget in tenant account agreements concluded with parliament 's delegation , with the souci unswerving to adopt a budget which will cover all the priorities of the european union and correspondant needs réels and the ability actual implementing appropriations . the third important element of this second reading of the council is concerned with the agreement intervenu on endowments programme ' spirit of enterprise ' which persecutes and complete the programme ' initiative emploi ' for the years 2000 to 2005 . in a more general note , i should like to stress that the budgetary procedure which will be achever within a few days showed the vital interests of the interinstitutional agreement of 6 may 1999 . the discussions furent sometimes serrées , but they furent always relevant and fondées on trade permanent , which have led to better we understand mutuellement and , therefore , to find more facilement an agreement , which i hope pleasurable at all . it is vital that any country in the region balkan does reçoive now - as a result of democratization is under way in serbia - less aid than they had been envisaged by the recent events in that country . in fact , the use répétée , two years away from the flexibility instrument can be seen , wrongly , in my opinion , as a form of revising the financial perspective . the council has said today that it is prepared to increase the payment of 3,5 % . i thank in particular the council and commission for this decision . mr president , i would also like to thank mrs haug on the excellent work she has done . my impression is that , to put it simply , flexibility , it is for the small montants and the review , for the montants significant , but we will see these prochaines years how this évoluera . we are now in the position of having to decide whether we can approve or reject the budget on thursday neighbour . we must therefore clearly nipped this budget of approximately . but the agreements interinstitutionnels between the three institutions are also a very important . they should be given a common security in terms of planification . the problems croissants is réfèrent primarily to unemployment , to the crisis over bse and the pacte stability in the balkans . madam president , honourable members europeans , i am very pleased to be here today to present an assessment of the french presidency of the european union and also for mesurer progress in recent months . we smugness had promised : there is no reliquat in nice . it is the order of strengthened cooperation that has been widely facilitée in the first and third piliers . that is both a immense challenge , and also a step historical links with the reunite our continent . thanks to this charter our union is becoming stronger and more secure values of dignity , freedom and solidarity with the fondent . and a few weeks ago , it is the chemical tanker , ievolu sun , which is abîmait outskirts of islands anglo-normandes . we had set targets , they have been achieved . madam president , honourable members europeans , this six-month period , i feel able to announce this here today , has given our union is augmented in itself préparant to host of new members , to meet the family , now that we are assurés to fonctionner together ; to reinforce both at the heart of our fellow citizens in the field of value , that of growth and employment , the principle of solidarity , that of safety and the preservation of the european social model and to strengthen and earning in audience on the scène international . ( applause ) that is inevitable in view of the approach pursued , but the result of this is all the more décevant : firstly , because it comes to making qualified-majority harder to achieve , and therefore the blocage easier , while the logique would have had to be the opposite true in the union is élargissant ; ( applause ) at the same time , the declaration on enlargement - which is positive , stipule that applicant countries will join the union at the end of the year 2002 , and heads of government in those countries who négocient currently have applaudi nice . we must however take one thing in mind : it is like when a child instructs its friends in a birthday and that it is not whether there is plenty of room for him and , if there is money for the goûter . the ambitiousness of nice was the most important ambitiousness of europe from a meeting with the summit for many years . madam president , president-in-office of the republic , mr president , ladies and gentlemen , the conclusions of my group is sévère for the fifteen on lendemain 's spectacle little engageant they have offered to the european vraisemblablement médusés of mesurer at that time and in forthright how things are actually in the view shared by the spirit of solidarity , reliance on both sides of the main leaders of europe . for all esprit lucide , they are annonciateurs some very serious consequences to which we conducting this draft federal europe of 27 or 28 member states . you have permettrez too , mr president , to emphasise that following nice , france apparaît once again like singulièrement perdante . madam president , mr president , the group of the europe of democracies and diversities regrets that the presidency has not given due to the message which it was sent back in july . many do not see any more in line with arrival verses which the european union has the engineer . so there is also a limit to be appréciée . i believe that they do not reflect both the opinion of the three groups , but also that of other groups , who have been prevented the signer for reasons techniques . so what we want to promote the development of medicines within the community since then it is possible to provide for patients opportunities accrues to benefit from treatments performants . i congratulate my colleague mary honeyball of his first report on the european parliament . in our major étonnement , mr fatuzzo has the floor , and i am impatient , is what retraité he met and what he said . the victim must be treated as a person to affronter anything like désorientation and détresse - factors which are probably even more aigus if the person is casualty in another member state than his own . the next item is the continuation of the discussion municipality on : it was discouraging to see focusing the debate on the question as to which a vote of more or a ' voice of minuses . it gagnerait from germany and france , holland and belgium , portugal and spain . we welcome the fact that a new method to be put in place and we hope that , aside from this darkness , which is writing with the possibility of enhanced cooperation , europe will continue to move forward , as it is capable of producing for tomorrow , a constitution which redonne to people 's hopes in this marvellous project that is the adventure of europe . the future member states who are preparing for accession suivront the example of egocentricity given by the member states already have . there are félicitent more than others , but the message of basis is clear that europe can now be réunie together in a union of democratic and élargie , which will be thanks to the treaty of nice , near the citizens . the interests sectional dominent . in trouvant an agreement ins extremis into the treaty , it has évité a crisis outward-looking who would have remis enlargement in question , but we can talk of a crisis latente that we must now deal with . i do not believe that this is more realistic to strive for reassert its own prestige nationally , and for the effective functioning of the european union , and i do not believe step that european citizens have mobilisés in masse to follow the manuvres of flibusterie menées in nice in their gouvernants . and what a wonderful project , after all , eleven years after the chute 's wall berlin ! at that time they had had to do so for half of europe , and now we have to work for europe as a whole . the stumbling-block institutionnel will no longer be invoqué after nice . firstly , the imbalance institutionnel : a lot for the council and bit for the commission and parliament . this method has proved its time . the consequences for europe to have been absolutely incalculables . for example , you know that at the beginning of the european union , the minority of blocage could reunite what you call them ' grandees ' countries , and today there are three . the milestones are raised , enlargement is possible , the european parliament will be included in the debate , in the approfondissement of pistes and the idées . the well-equipped european public , which nobody is dépositaire - mr moscovici , is quite right here - can only be based on the addition of national interests that are croisent ; on neutralisent and , accordingly , the prime minister verhofstadt , bore a message salutaire here . we have urged them to be ratified . personally , i believe that the re-weighting of votes must take account of the population , following the example of the european parliament , and would have had to be carried out by the council too . but nice , mr president , is not the end of the way , but the point of departure for a new stage comprising many challenges . i would like to return to what has been discussed many times here today . if it appears that there is parvenu to avoid the paralysie full of any future european union élargie , the ambitions of the french presidency could not be traduire in the new draft treaty . as far as i am concerned , mr president , i think it is simply that nice deserves a mention defective . i do not know whether the commission will respond to the end of this debate , but i wonder , in the absence of the council , if the commission is no less safe than in 2004 , the european parliament will consist of members czechs , hongrois and polonais and members ' baltes . we did not hide the need to continue , with the same place and the same determination that we had before nice , in the process of enlargement for achieving our goal , namely the biggest event with history that parliament and commission have for the prochaines years . secondly , and in particular , the problem of funding balkan remains unresolved for future years . i should also like to congratulate the rapporteurs , president of the committee on budgets , the commission , council and the presidency for the work that has been done , for the conclusion of this agreement which we will voted on the budget for 2001 . it is good that ways supplémentaires have been made available for small and medium-sized enterprises , which are the main employeurs . in football , it parlerait from a match nil . precisely because we have a budget and because we have reached an agreement at the conciliation , it imaginons that not all our problems have been settled . this importance is just not on nulle hand but the treaty , although the council has sometimes difficult for the acknowledged . these rules must be accompagnées of an undertaking by the college of commissioners to a division equitable and effective resourced humaines and material for the management of structural policies , which means that the priority policy of parliament and the priority of management of the commission must coïncider . so it is a duty shared by europe to contribute to safety and to the régénération on the environment . it is much talk about the après-nice . you have of course raison d ' come back again to this question . there is no longer to crainte of a agression military or of a expansion possible from a regime dictatorial . in this regardant correctly , you realise that russia is situe , in the budget , appreciably at the same level as morocco , or rather earlier on , and i do not believe not let this be the norm . it would be very dangerous that the european deviennent dépendants of russia in terms logistique . and a programme such as tacis has but one effect very limited in this context , not to say that it does represent only one goutte of water in the ocean . the natalité reduction , the mortalité is increasing and the loss nette in the number of people is of a million people a year . mr poutine itself , and we ferions worse than mr poutine , said that the issue of the status of the future of the tchétchénie is not the main issue . what deviennent russia and its people , its society ; they are indifférent . mr president , the european union was approved in recent years several documents concerning russia and which constitute a good basis for relations étroites with the republic of russia . and then , that means freedom for the people tchétchène ? it is agira in a second time in order to respect the law . economic progress contribuant him too for this stabilization , the fourth stage is to bring the hallmarks of a civil society . but this is an excellent report which , as the common strategy itself , underlines the importance that we accordons to relationship - at partenariat strategic - between the european union and russia . this means that we must concentrate our efforts on issues such keys such as the environment , several members have mentioned - the safety of nuclear , the enclave of kaliningrad herself and improving the coordination between the various financial resources . we must avoid the mistakes that a member has referred to earlier , which was commise at the beginning of the century of last year , when russia was exclue affairs européennes after the révolution léniniste of 1917 . we know that the effects on will be disastrous . as you know , the council adopted a common position on the revision of directive 90 / 220 / eec . i therefore think it is in this way that you pourrez find the answer the questions that you posez . therefore , i am quite prepared to propose that this debate took place : quite simply , we need to choisir terms the most suitable . i do not have any news briefing quite clear to me enabling us to respond to your question complementary . it cannot famously have not even told us that he has no information precise about this ! the council reminiscent of the member states conclusions he has adopted at its meeting of 19 may 1998 relating to fraud in the sectors of the alcool and tobacco . all member states have confirmed their determination to step up the fight against fraud , both in terms of internal dependability in their relations . the european union has affirmé repeatedly abiding outright that it attaches to the right of asylum . in this respect , the agreement with russia acp-communauté european subscribed to cotonou in june 2000 stipulates that the community assurera at the latest until 2005 access to forthrightness rights with the bulk products originating in the pma . i would remind you that the presidency is not here to express the views of a particular country , that it is not a particular government , but rather to express what are , at any time ' x ' , a moment " t " , the positions of the council . a system of achat-destruction will be put in place for these cattle have not been tested in order to dédommager farmers at the cost of the market . the french presidency , from the outset was as souci will be replied communautaire in this crisis which is a crisis of food , a crisis of society and a crisis of health . as part of the barcelona process , the algérie has subscribed to a number of principles , including those of the observance of the rule of law . - i have already had the opportunity , a few weeks ago , you make a few thoughts on the preparation of the session spectacularly by the un general assembly consacrée the follow-up of the summit world-wide for children who will take place in september 2001 . subject : obligations by turkey in the context of its assent to partnerships with the european union under the commission 's proposal regarding the agreement of partnership between the european union and turkey , the council is expected to réexaminer the situation disputes outstanding in relation to the consequences for the accession process , especially in a bid to promote their way through the truchement from the court of international justice system , such as the end of the year 2004 at the latest . the council , under the partnership which he has just we speak , will it address this issue with the turkish government ? respecte-t-on the rights of defence , and the mutual recognition is contribuera-t-elle ? furthermore , it is up to each member state to take the decision nationale , souveraine , to initiate or not gangs operating in the operation . subject : the importance of the impôt for the single market work the commission president , mr prodi , has recently assuré in an article in november 's financial times as it does not souhaitait no harmonisation of taxes and tax rates inherent in the european union in précisant that the rate of tax ' smacks of national parliaments and should this be " . questions nos 23 to 32 recevront an answer écrite . the stabilisation and association agreement with the european union and the republic of croatia arrive at an opportune moment . mr president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , let me begin by congratulating mr baltas on his report and , above all for the rapidité with which he has produced this report . it is indeed important to react quickly in the wake of changed intervenus in croatia , which mrs stenzel has just we speak . developments in this area is particularly appréciable . in 1991-1992 , more than 250 000 croats have thus been chassés of krajina , of slavonie western and slavonie eastern . there is no doubt that this year is to scoring an pierre blanche for europe 's south-east . i do not think step that we can talk about meagre balance-sheet over a year . we are talking about is an important point and we will hopefully will count on your support when we reviendrons you consult formellement once the agreement negotiated . the réactions of opposition to the government wahid are numerous and the process seems to stagner . the heads papous are still emprisonnés too . we want also to the european commission to follow this line . the terms of the commission communication which dates back to the beginning of next year will therefore justifiés , even if they were empreints in some euphorie découlant certainly of these changes . justice which has not stopped and the camps with refugees who are éternisent are espaces of confrontation between the powers old and new indonesia , they attest to the fragilité the process of democratization . the situation as the european inquiétante is that of the moluccas , where the combattants 's djihad jouissent in a room for manoeuvre unacceptable . the irian jaya too is a victim of the common migratoire . we must clearly choisir priorities , we cannot mêler transnationally environmental , social , economic , along with this problem omega of respect for democracy and human rights , which must be clearly a priority for political relations with indonesia . this resolution says so catégorique that the irian jaya forms part of indonesia . the situation has certainly améliorée and we must encourage president wahid and very serious problems still exist . it is surely unacceptable that the dizaines of thousands of refugees est-timorais remain of otages at the mercy of bandits armés which , under the guise of patriotisme indonésien , trying to get on firing without paying for the past criminal . it will owing to its size , it is the fourth member of the world 's population . it will owing to an aspect of economics , because of its role in the region and , finally , because of its environmental impact . that is why we must allier methods and instruments policiers , administratifs and criminal vaunted between member states and in terms of the eu . ( the president cut the speaker off ) mrs schreyer , you have repeatedly répété here , as commissioner chargée in the fight against fraud , you considériez that it was specially from your duty to guarantee the independence of the european olaf . that is asserting even of a administering financial off échelon européen qui creates problems in the wrong conception of modèles distribution of taxpayers ' money européens within the framework of ladite ' community ' ; moreover , these modèles are , in many cases , nullement souhaités . i would very much to commend the rapporteur , one that i appreciate and which i admire lots as an individual and policy on his report , but unfortunately i do not want any . the report deals with the protection of financial interests of the community and on how we réglons this issue . behold paragraphs bene ? by shortness of time , i will confine myself to a brief presentation of these various points . the debate is closed . there is a european legislation to protect firms against the effects of such a bad management and the commission has now undertaken to implement its own regulations to safeguard the rapidité of versements . we have other instruments at our disposal to révéler at great day for cases of fraud antérieurs who were passés inaperçus until then . mrs schreyer , you have just mentioned the council in disant as a member state has opposed to the creation of a attorney european . so i think it is a very sensée in signifiant to the court of auditors what he expects precisely on these reports . neither the commission nor the member states can no longer be dérober to their responsibilities and in particular to the shuffle mutuellement . it said in all honesty , regrettant it to do so . the implication of the commission and the court of auditors in producing this report was something very useful and , in my view , very délibérée on your part . you can see , in my speech that i find it interesting to approfondir discussion of these proposals and ascertain how sharpen its responsibilities in this area . the first défaut important that this text is the lack of harmonisation . i believe therefore that article 4 should also be improved . within the single market , the investisseurs , whether they relate to investisseurs private firms or to fund pensions , should be able to exercer their prérogatives of shareholders at bénéfice societies in which they investissent and for themselves . we cannot close our eyes to reality . another acquisition of actions are accompagne of restructurations personnel , lay-offs and so on . that said , what is likely to have the amendments that we déposons as a parliament ? what should be the concern dominante of legislation governing these acquisitions ? that is the principle on which we diviserons perhaps tomorrow . it should instead be easier to resolve the question : how will the authority to control expertly . the amendments tabled by the rapporteur génèrent a confusion about the litiges , and we would have mistakenly voted in favour of the confusion with regard to litiges potential . one thing i want to concerning this directive on the take-over state-owned for acquiring is being able to defend very strongly to the millions of people in my country and the millions of people who have plans for old age and savings basés on investment in bourse . this procedure , which already exist in several other member states , is of course the area of bids public for acquiring , but it expands much further and could be éventuellement étudiée in greater detail in the context of the réexamen general law societies such as the commission proposed . let me finally you recall that we are dealing here with a framework directive , according to the desire that expressed antérieurement this parliament . the resale right is entitled incessible and inaliénable of artists créateurs of percevoir portions of revenues coming out of the revente of their uvres . there is firstly the lobbyistes uk-based which craignent the loss of jobs . the compromise reached by the council is therefore more than a little reflection of the original commission proposal , widely supported by parliament at first reading . i will also on the support of the commission , at least as one of the three major areas of litige . we are dealing here with the vitalité and enhance the competitiveness of the art market in europe . in other cases , the blackboard was certainly vendu elsewhere in america , for example . this amendment is , however , it acceptable that partially . bidding for postal services that is my proposal , mr savary . firstly : we must strive to achieve price reasonable for the postal services . secondly , we need to establish standards of quality upper limit for these services . thirdly , to ensure the provision of a service postal généralisé throughout the european union . the committee on legal affairs has been more exigeante with regard to the limit of priced service réservés at prestataire of universal service , but its proposal on the fringes of weight to 150 grammes is the same , and it rejette by restricting 50 grammes foreseen by the proposed directive . finally , we cannot accept a new deadline for liberalisation as long as there are no evaluation pre-condition . you know at what point the matter is complicated ; it has in fact the freins idéologiques , put some of the two sides . even if some people here in parliament are perhaps in a position to accept these proposals , we can see that they would have had an effect dévastateur on postal services in the european union . these proposals conduiraient barriers to the fermeture small post offices for rural , whose survie depends on postal services . if we continuons at this rate , we must nearly half a century in order to meet the opening of the market for postal services in europe . madam president , i would like to make three comments . scanning the new directive , we must be clear on one point specifically . there is no way - and it must not to be as well . in a situation of fair competition , the monopolistes can demonstrate that they comprennent their area . but if grand-mère looks forward to receiving a factor sympathique . that is also part of the requirements of a service postal of quality , it must not be attrister , but rather we rejoice . anyone who are so badly préparés in a negotiation , those who do not pose any report calling for 1997 on the consequences , those who argumentent on blueprints ideological - we cannot achieve the objectives pursued precisely with you that if we libéralisons , libéralisons , libéralisons - must not be étonner of retomber on the nez ! mr bolkestein , the commission is the gardienne treaties . in other words , it is as if we calculait an average of income of the milliardaire and the european indigent - which might perhaps give a figure diminishing but cannot be regarded as socialement deliverable , apparently because of the existence of the european indigent . the time has altered , mr simpson . the governments which are originally had not socialist-dominated but tories or liberals . as soon as the proposal was presented by the commission , i have immediately su than it would never accepted in its format originally . because if we are all agreed on the principle of openness and liberalisations , there is no less than the rhythm is important . the effects of the original directive are not rendus public because the consequences are obvious : loss of employment and living conditions of employment as inequality of workings of the public service in the entire territory , particularly in the countryside and the quartiers populaires . the commission 's proposal provides for an open phasing-in of this sector and , in my opinion , amènera enhances one of these services and price more compétitifs . what is essential for the development of the sector of the marketing forthright . i appeal directly to the british conservatives . let me say this to annum post : if this compromise is accepted , you aurez what souffler somewhat . but we should be more than desirable that one day we sachions overstep the situations purchased and vaincre the corporatismes égoïstes to make real progress with europe . only 3 % of the market of the correspondence was libéralisé . it will be overrun by technology and boudé by consumers who estiment that they do not have for their money . to help them , it is necessary to introduce competition actual . in a way contrôlée and progressive , associée at a time frame prédéterminé . regarding amendments nos 60 and 61 , i support the principle of achèvement the internal market at a time later , to determine within a period rationally . the commission exposera the same opinion and the council is prononcera on the commission proposal as well him semblera . nevertheless , parliament must now decide . my second report is therefore very much in the first and recapitulates the amendments adopted by the plenary . it is true , commissioner , that we émettons a few reservations and a few comments . mr president , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , i first of all congratulate the rapporteur , mr dary , which we clearly have commented on the reform , its history and its synthèse - and i really would not répéter . it is in a number of regions separate from the community , the outermost regions , in proie on a number of problems to be concurrentiels onto the market and one of the few products is bananas . this organisation dissuade rather the chaos , since it tries to instituer rules which we conformons manner . it is not exagéré to say that this issue is one of those who have caused the greatest attention to all the institutions . we must continue to donate without complexes in these producers have the means to live in achetant in prioritisation their production . mr president , the rapporteur deserves our thanks and our sympathy for having su manage this report nest . similarly , i thank the chairmen of groups policy-makers of this parliament who have signed up to the obstination and the entêtement for members of the outlying regions to ensure that this proposal for reform of the sector in bananas is discutée today in this house , so that we can émettre our opinion obligatory and be prepared for the extraordinary european council of ministers for agriculture to be held shortly and embark on the 2001 with a new reform of the com in bananas . it is much talk here of the prétendue unanimity within the committee on agriculture and rural development beating about the report by mr dary . ladies and gentlemen , i have the honour for me to inform the presence among us with a delegation from parliament coréen in the gallery vip . this assistance has enabled us to get to the council decided something positive for media . report ( a5-0377 / 2000 ) by mr trakatellis , on behalf of the committee on the environment , public health and consumer policy , on the draft decision of the european parliament and the council prorogeant some action programmes community in the field of public health embraced by the decisions 645 / 96 / ec , 646 / 96 / ec , 647 / 96 / ec , 102 / 97 / ec , 1400 / 97 / ec and 1296 / 1999 / ec and amend these decisions ( com ( 2000 ) 448 - c5-0400 / 2000 - 2000 / 0192 ( cod ) ) mr president , i will just take the opportunity to say , with reference to explications from the commissioner tonight to 00h15 , that amendment no 1 engage the commission . ( parliament accepte the oral amendment ) amendment no 2 : parliament had a duty to come back and to restore the greater part of these amendments - on matters affecting the size of the avertissement , the entrenchment of ingredients , the protection of consumers , particularly among young people . there aurait-il , for some members , two categories of people : that which we protects and those that are put in danger for reasons economic-policy ? i would particularly explain why i voted against the export ban on tobacco products apart from a certain level of goudron / nicotine from within the eu and supported the amendments which visaient to increase this limit . madam president , i am in favour of the proposed amendment to use of pictures for illustrate the damages that smoking is causer for health , as happens in canada . i believe that all this is positive , although i would like to - and i seized the opportunity to put it - that we dépense more for the prevention of diseases . i would have preferred that this provision is traduise for a regulation , which conviendrait preferable to an issue which concerns the citizens of the entire european union . the amendments which mr zimmerling has proposed porteront a blow fatal for the vitalité the art market in europe , with the loss of jobs and , i am afraid , very little to artists vivants which bénéficieront from this right of revente . . ( nl ) it is willingly that i thank mr zimmerling for the work he has done on this issue ardu . i am therefore in obliged to vote against this directive . and the stabilisation and association agreement , the cards programme and the european investment bank should not be the most important instruments for the contribution of the european union to the development of economic and social croatia . the government indonésien and the army have a duty evident to protect the safety and the lives of citizens , regardless of their belonging to religion . we therefore need to create fastest instruments with which to deal more effectively against fraud in the financial interests of the community . it would e.u. an area of legal standard for the enquêtes , the proceedings , the trial and the exécutions of sentences for this type of délit . we semblons sometimes have lost sight of this fact . amendments nos 11 and 13 seek to réexaminer the system of quotas after ten years alone , and to reject the establishment of the system douanier proposed by the commission and exigé by a number of our partners malls . as far as the reason for the preference tarifaire for the acp countries , we are also in agreement with the 300 million per tonne , but we think the word ' maximum ' as superflu . there are too few opportunities for our partners malls accept such a prolongation . the next item is the statement by the committee on the eu-us summit of america . that is , i recognise and easier to say that to be done , but we must try to résister at the tentation - and i know that the secrétaire of state albright shares this view - to allow these summits are embourber into the details of our relations daily economic and political . one of the principales leçons was that the european devaient assume greater responsibility for security in europe . perhaps you would be reconnaissante if , for the communication scheduled for the spring , you repreniez into details here and if , as well as the analysis that has been demandée by another aile of this house , you faisiez proposals on all fronts , about how we can achieve in the future new objectives in terms of dialogue , in collaboration with regard to the common foreign , security policy , but also about these matters pragmatiques that are such agreements on mutual recognition . i know well and welcomes the initiative ' everything except those weapons ' and calls upon the commission to take this opportunity of the summit to put pressure on the united states so that they adhèrent to this initiative . so we must take action to prevent the irréparable which lies ahead of those people who , like mumia abu-jamal or leonard pelletier , are in the couloirs of the death sometime over many years . this is something which is very useful that we do manquerons not to follow . thank you very much , commissioner . however , i am afraid that i am finding under the tirs croisés from my own group . lastly , we have to resort to the formulae simple to perception of the impôt and , more specifically , in the form of investment in the area passif . the first conclusion is that we cannot beholden do without modification of the framework of international . . ( en ) mr president , our committee voudrait firstly point out that the provisions current désavantagent the fournisseurs european of these services , software and processing of data , services computer , hébergement and conception of sites and information on the web . as i have always said that one of the firsts rules of législateur should be : do not have any legislation that you do pourras not enforced . i am pleased that , partly thanks to the committee on the environment , public health and consumer policy , the report on the substance reprenne a number of elements bulky which , as a result of the competition of circumstances , have not received a teeth sufficiently in the committee on transport . at the same time , we must pursue the line & # x02bc ; requesting a review of the convention chicago of 1944 , in order to obtain a new provision internationally . the advantages of local shortterm accordé at some countries are at détriment from other eu countries . mr president , during the next decade , europe is going to find at first position worldwide for the use of the internet . many people , in fact , commissioner , is asking why we europeans are still if prompts to establish levies and new regulations . in this respect , the convention chicago is totally obsolète . i do not consider the introduction of a system common vat as a priority and i do not agree that such a foreword is expected for some time . therefore , our aim must be to déblayer and simplify our systems fiscaux without increasing the tax rates , but in the diminuant . the option , the most desirable is to apply a rate zéro for companies to ebusiness so that they are put on an equal footing with their concurrentes américaines and others in the world . the tax competition is in the interests of citizens and of the economy . thus , so that the operators established outside the union 's being subject to the same obligations tax-related that operators non-national when they fournissent services to consumers , they must be assujettir vat in one of the member states of their choice and they will apply the rate of vat in force in this situation . but it is not so easy . the place where the tax should be applied impinges essential , and the debate touching upon the number of countries that seraient qualifiés for companies enregistrées is something that is , in my opinion , pesant and which poussera clearly the united states to take action within the wto . it is absurd that when a aller-retour londres-bruxelles costs 89 pounds with virgin airways , for example , the eurostar , which produces far fewer greenhouse gases and which is an attempt at a more attractive to travel , whatever the equivalent of around 250 pounds for the same voyage . mr president , this debate sees no of old démons . finally , you spoke of the proposals that were able to make the french presidency for its implementation must take place on the rise in consumer , with an obligation to providers to be recorded in all member states . the reaction of the european seraient at a disadvantage compared with the airlines of third countries and that provoquerait a distortion of the structure of prices intra-ue compared with the price intercontinentaux . it seems to me at least be a solution which would lead not in a fuite capital out of europe . it is possible only in terms of the oecd and not deduced ponctuelle through negotiations individuelles . i am perfectly aware of the fact that some members of this house will feel submergés through visions contradictory . that makes it possible to prevent the complexity that involves the use of criteria macroeconomic or even nature . i turn now to the proposal from the level ounce of rates should be . consequently , aucun effort préparatoire important efics has yet been carried out within the groups working of the oaci . and it is not very likely that the forthcoming general assembly permette already in renégocier the convention chicago . this feeling persist even today , and it is regrettable , in the spirit of public opinion in europe . the final objective of this directive is the strengthening of the management of situations emergency at sea , in désignant of ports of refuge , in prohibiting the cargoes of raping the sea where a strong storm and in insisting on the state côtier involved in bringing about greater resources to intervene at sea , where a risk grievous of pollution . societies pétrolières tells us that they have a fund voluntarily . i hope that after the impulsion imparted in nice , the doutes and the resistance of some countries it will be reduced and that we atteindrons this objective . we will do self-evidently confidence in ensuring maritime safety , because it is clear that they do happens every week unless we are interpellés with this question : " but you , honourable members europeans , that faites-vous to guarantee security , to change the rules ? ' . mr president , the commission is aware that one of the plans annoncés by government in britain on 8 november 2000 was the introduction of a form of taxation for users of the offing as a vignette payable by all the hauliers , uk-based or not , for their use of the network road from the united kingdom . secondly , if , as well as the minister had at initialement intend , he proposes to tax the camions strangers to subventionner the carriers of his country , it is contrary to european legislation ? this imbalance of possible economic between fees and taxes on the road in different member states provoque a distortion of competition within the territory of the united kingdom between hauliers from nationalités different . with regard to the issue of the use of meat and farine animal , their exports is couverte exactly the same in the legislation which régit production of beef and farine feedstuffs within the european union and the obligation to withdraw it , for example , the cargoes at risk of meat and the farine animal is couverte by legislation and will be faced with effect from 1 mars 2001 . the jews are traîtres and the déloyaux . i sincerely hope that in every country in the region , we constaterons that services éducatifs promeuvent the tolerant rather than the intolérance . the answer is not surprenante from mr monti . question no 37 by ( h-0900 / 00 ) : the commission will propose also at the same time a mechanism to support temporaire défensif conçu specifically to counter unfair korean practices during the period required for the conclusion of the procedure com . this is a problem dramatique . the industry utilisatrice of coke emploie in total 70.000 people , but this product does represent only one thing very marginale its costs , the alentours of 2 % . question no 40 by ( h-0889 / 00 ) : we have transmis our proposal to the acp countries pratiquement at once that in our member states . this initiative does indeed not to object to the settle , i should like to reassure both the quantités supplémentaires which could be importées from the community market are infirm . these countries did deplorably , taking account of their situation , no capacity for negotiation autonome and , therefore , that is something that we must , in my opinion , be unilatéralement , without any contrepartie . the procedure followed by the commission to give financial aid demandée will soon achevée , and it also includes also trade are at the ecpat is needed for 2001 . we have three types of activity in this area . the commission proposal does not mention the place where could settle this soon-to-be tribunal . i am not sure to understand what the honourable member hears by ' bloom ' . the question by mr berenguer fuster hinges on the taint therein . i shall take as an encouragement to renouveler our action and to ensure that europe should fastest what it has to be done . to my previous question , you were répondu that this was the fault of spain , and that you prendriez measures which are imposaient . it does , of clarifié one which i had been made earlier . the directive 89 / 48 / eec concerns the diplômes couronnant a training of professional of at least three years after the enseignement secondaire . subject : communications shipping in the détroit séparant vaasa in finland 's umeå in sweden 's trafic seafaring within this détroit from the sea baltic is likely to disappear because there is no longer rentable insofar as the shipowners can no longer pratiquer selling out taxes . in the city of vaasa stated , for example , 550 jobs has rightly been perdus in the field of tourism in the course of two years , perhaps rather owing to the end of selling off the taxes . this proposal for stimuler development and use of digital content mirrors the objective of the lisbon summit . furthermore , i would urge the commission to draw up the processes of implementation better and more rapides in the field of invitations to proposition . if we are only the content helpful to businesses , particularly the météorologie and the géographie . this is highly desirable , of course , we must not forget that for the content destined to citizens , it is much more complicated than to take only the information needed to companies . digital content , which represents more quantity and quality , uniformise and restricts the cultural diversity and society . the second point which seems to me just as important , relates to the attention that we must bring about small and medium-sized enterprises , the start-up . however , when we are doing in this passivity a virtue and that we changeons just a sign of negative and positive that we will see more our various languages as barriers but rather as an ponts and that we agree with the atouts , then it becomes a basis valid for a european market and to some degree of independence . i do reviendrai not about all this programme 's objectives : conditions conducive to commercialisation , diffusion and use of digital content , to promote an active economic , widening the scope of employment , promoting the use of the potential of digital content in europe gaze and in face of the united states . therefore , the setting up of conditions appropriate to the production of digital content multilingue europe is a key growing . some of them are , in itself extremely valuable , but will find a better place for other instruments that today 's decision . the various positions can be exposées now , the vote is not on the agenda for this evening , and if the largest group in parliament was the view that parliament should not proceed to the vote tomorrow , it seems to me so much more correct to make such a proposal by parliament part-session of parliament , tomorrow , when voting , instead of doing this evening . mr president , ladies and gentlemen , commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , increasing numbers of people in europe are victims of nuisances sonores . the member states are libres to define when starts the soirée and night , which is ensuit . i am therefore satisfaite from the commission 's proposal , but let the perceives as a first step , in my view too prudent . that is why shortening and abolishing the background noise should represent a valve nub of the common environnementale european in the future . the group of the united left will therefore supports willingly , even if we voulions go even further in the search for solutions concluantes and in the approach of those who gagnent money with the nuisances . but i would like to address the chamailleries and the fight delusion that paper in the coulisses , within the commission , in part , below , au-dessus , recently and yet here at the moment . consequently , i do cache step that my country éprouvera an enormous difficulty in accepting the commission 's proposal , at least as this is prévoie a mechanism sufficiently flexible to ensure that the way of life that we have ended up our ancêtres , something which is both appréciée both by the spanish and by the visiteurs foreigners , can be maintenu . however , i would therefore recommend this report and , of course , the commission 's proposal to this house . at the second place disturb the subsidiary directives relating to the standards of quality . i am entirely in favour of the need to harmonise the indices of noise and methods of evaluation , at any reference to the noise maps , drawing up action plans in order to reduce levels of noise and to protect the zones calmes and also the need to extend the whole area of information to the public . secondly , the proposal adopted a new approach in order to assess the situation blanket in terms of noise in europe depending on the number of people affectées by noise . the commission can accept amendments nos following in principle or in part : these are amendments nos 6 , 7 , 12 , 13 , 17 , 21 , 22 , 25 , 28 , 29 , 32 , 39 , 42 , 44 and 45 . furthermore , in general , additives which cannot be used for the denrées not transformées - what is happening here - which have not had any treatment entraînant switching substantial of their country of origin . mr president , with the ppe group , we have voted for the report lannoye within the committee on the environment , public health and consumer policy , and it correspond incidentally fully to our expectations . none of us in misplaced . the next item is the report ( a5-0372 / 2000 ) by mr staes , on behalf of the european parliament delegation to the committee on conciliation on the draft joint , approved by the committee conciliation , with parliament and council directive amending directive 95 / 53 / ec fixant principles relating to the organisation of official controls in the field of animal feed . i have now received from the french presidency sending a clear , a message crystal clear : a message of the kind ' no pasarán ' . according to lengthy negotiations , a compromise acceptable has now been reached in committee conciliation : it deals with an assurance that the measures to protect meted out by the commission will remain in force for as long as they have not been replaced by a new decision , and on the commitment of member states to give their support undiluted with experts from the commission during the enquêtes and controls as they effectueront on the ground . i welcome this legislation . the eu 's structural funds - mainly by means of fse - and the appropriations ministères finance national should always be ciblés on the development of zones disadvantaged and more poor within our societies . the cities of europe are of great pôles economic , political and socioculturels . legislation neat and control scrupulous in its application are a means of action supplémentaires . the commission articulates also its appreciation for the support substantial fourni by the european parliament for this proposal and for the many amendments helpful that have been introduits . given the nature of the activities , the commission can accept amendments nos 10 and 23 . i say ' catchword ' because it is an issue very à la modality . as you conviendrez with me that he does not happen not one day without the press is heading in the cautionary principle : on everything and anything , to good or bad escient , but more often in a erronée . the extremist eager to bloquer innovation and development , while the minimalist conseillent as not to use the precautionary principle , if there is a danger significatif for health and the environment , i.e. au-dessus of a threshold to define , but we do not really understand how ! the clarification of rôles respective is a condition sine qua non for the restoration of the necessary confidence printed in the community scientist , along with the decision-makers policies - in other words , we , as responsible politicians . under these circumstances , a degree of safety is conservée , for the purposes of prudence . we have also asked for action in the world trade organisation - a regulation , perhaps - which garantiraient whether it be possible , in the context of the wto , to invoquer other obligations , such as those which we must acquitter under the agreements multilatéraux in terms of environment , in order to extend the scope of the precautionary principle . of course , it is also essential to strengthen the value of legal the precautionary principle to celebrate a norme of international law . the art of life is to manage judicieusement these risks and uncertainties . tantôt it uses too and the banalise , tantôt it uses too little and provoque our indignation . i am thinking , for example , the phtalates contained in some jouets . we have had the idea curieuse introduced for jouets within the sucreries , of glaces and other foodstuffs . it is equally to the demands of the commission , which calls for an analysis detailed risks being carried out préalablement . the resolution calls on the commission to make use of the guidelines adopted and to integrate the precautionary principle , each time that this is necessary , in the preparation of its legislative proposals and in all its actions . it is not possible to provide a threshold ceo of minimis . in attribuant for the first time the sakharov prize to the défenseurs human rights which are fighting inside the union , the european parliament affirms solennellement that any infringement of which must be combattue without compromission . madam president , ladies and gentlemen , the initiative citoyenne ' basta ya ! ' désire , first of all express its gratitude to parliament for the recognition creditable that it will grants . it is not only to assassinats . i would ask you therefore want to go and get my confidence . ( parliament adopted the legislative resolution ) madam president , if the house is the permits , let me give an explanation oral answer to my amendment 51 . report ( a5-0334 / 2000 ) by mr garcía-margallo y marfil , on behalf of the committee on economic and monetary affairs , on the commission communication on the taxation of fuel aircraft ( com ( 2000 ) 110 - c5-0207 / 2000 - 2000 / 2114 ( cos ) ) this agreement is attrayant for some companies but negatively on the environment and democracy . the incident stark occurred since our previous debates budget is clearly the crisis dite with the ' mad cow disease ' . this contredirait clearly the spirit and letter of the decisions , précédemment évoquées , the heads of state and government . parliament is parvenu to impose certain priorities important - in particular , greater implication in the fight against unemployment and poverty , a number of problems associated with the environment and equal opportunities between men and women , etc. we have voted against the attacks on the right portées programme to life and the lobby of european women . the importance of endowments scheduled for kosovo does , however , not without causing some aroused legitimate on the habitability real absorption of that region of yugoslavia , the 350 million euros that it was initialement assigned to him affecter in 2001 . there is justifie granting advantages fiscaux by means of a form of distribution resolute . the time limit brings an answer straight to the people of the postal market and makes it possible to monopoles national to better to prepare for a liberalization . pouvons-nous gommer from mere decision , éventuellement petitement first-past-the-post voting as a whole conception of service post , conception which finds its racines and its explications in the peculiarities of each member state ? the threshold of 50 grammes proposed by the commission , combined with a price plafonné to twice and demi the fare publique , is far too drastique and would have had an impact dévastatrices on postal services universal . hence our opposition firm and clear to all its comments . we believe that the postal service will depend not within the competence of the eu , although the proposal from the reading of the commission is considerably higher than the original commission proposal . report dary ( a5-0374 / 2000 ) we consider however that must be protected in effects of this war small producers who are working on their plantations without squeeze person and their incomes which may be the fluctuations of the market . according to article 10 , freedom of expression creates duties and responsibilities which could lead to the conditions of limitations and sanctions . we can only be good for such an initiative when one realises that the value of digital content européen represents 50.5 % in terms of pib european and 4 million in terms of jobs . under these circumstances , it is especially in their cohérence and their unit which have assuré in the united states a prééminence on the market for the future . i hope also that there will , in 2004 , a reduction in the distribution of competences , and that we appliquera the criterion of subsidiarity , so that the regions and communities autonomes can have their status within the union . we can only be a welcome development . for example , on the negotiations mercantile mentionnées earlier on , the national parliaments will be dépossédés their last entitlements of ratification , and one country , whether it is minoritaire within the council , will no longer say " no " if one talks violera its interests . we had , in many ways , tempted to those in dissuader and the nice summit has very clearly demonstrated that an agenda appreciably élargi could lead to a lack of results this year , which would be disastrous for enlargement . given the importance fundamental decisions to be taken at the nice summit , are going to césar what is at césar . in other words , what is parliament , it is a grip on taxation and the issues of social security . the decisions of the council - obtenues off arraché during the night - there are no justification solid ; they affichent huge gaps as regards transparency , the establishment of an identity , democracy and participation of citizens and the consciousness of the reform . we therefore need to consider his conclusions , as the result of a compromise which nobody is sorti fully vainqueur nor vaincu . instead , the power of national democracies decreases in force for narrowing down still further the right of veto and to give more power for the parliament of the eu . therefore , you should vote in favour of this provision which limit to the taxation of aircraft , because in this way the billet plane we coûtera still less costly , then we can travel more in this mode of transport . " " no passes until at hoof ' immeubles , thou pourrais receive a pot of fleurs on your head ! the complexity and the variété with developments technological and the process of modification structurally require to integrate absolutely all the partners to local and regional in the partenariats development , which are impliqués in drawing up plans strategic regional policy for each region . we must therefore avoid at all costs to the étouffer or to carry attainable . one might say that innovation is to the effect of all the members who entourent the process of production . the gap between the regions developed and the backward regions is far more important in terms of technological development and in terms of gross national product . as you know , the bureaucrates have as main argument the risk of errors . i do not know whether the fact that three women have signed up to now the european budget is a consequence straightforwardly with the initiative risi , but i am pleased that the cadeau of noël that we are about to decide benefiting also for women . compress budget-related within a chapter like this one , devoted to the expériences-pilotes , at the idées new in terms of development of local and urbain - donnant results more than palatable - which have been on the basis of community programmes such valuable in terms locally , that it is urban and interreg is also a mistake . as has rightly been said by mr rack , i did not understand , and i do not comprendrai ever this regional policy and the policy of cohesion as a kind of aumône being made to the regions most have-nots . that is why , when i was in the negotiations , at present , the docup , regardless of innovative measures , i am speaking here of the mainstream , i am extremely attentive to embodied in each of the memoranda of programmation blueprints regional access to the information society and i vérifie quality , beyond the scope of this programme regionally , especially in relation to direct small- and medium-sized enterprises , the établissements éducatifs and even the exploitations farming . mrs schroedter , mr izquierdo collado and josu ortuondo larrea , have rightly raised the issue of enveloppes budget . the price of new vessels navales have chuté in recent years and have reached their level as low in 1999 , because of this policy sud-coréenne . the commission has had to proceed to a vote specialised in order to ensure that this item was on the agenda for today 's debate . this conception moreover is conform to the treaty , although i do not have time to come back again in more detail . however , the commission 's proposal , which includes aid for research and development , a complaint against korea at the world trade organization - they are working with price inférieurs , even in relation to the price of recoverable - and the possibility that there are measures of support transitory until the redress is not resolved is perhaps , according to us , something more or less fragile , but it was , at least for a solution . at the same time , it is imperative to increase the pressure exerted on korea , where possible within the framework of the oecd , in adoptant measures antidumping . in other words , we supportons unemployment and it is in fact the others who are affairs with shipyards . i think it is an excellent radiographie of the shipbuilding industry in europe , a real radiographie . this procedure will provide no results rapides . it can to take up to two years to come to the conclusion finishing , if it comes to fruition . this mechanism would run up to the conclusion of the procedure undertaken within the wto . i am sure that we are all unis today to defend with vigour and forcefully freedom in europe , but i would like to say that , more than solidarity by colleagues in the european parliament , the spanish need their commitment . for some time in may , navigant on the waters of sicile , his heart nuclear montra some signs inquiétants of deterioration . it would , however alarmant that , faced with this situation , we do agissions not as soon as possible . in both , we would like to make it necessary that the two member states concerned , the royaume uni and spain , collaborent closely in the search for resolving the most effective form for the repair of the submarine , while tenant - of course , the public informed in order ponctuelle . we have heard the allegations of perpetrators of the fleet british disant that the avarie was minime and others who disaient exactly the opposite , that it was important and that it requérait of repairs lengthy and difficult . i know that the house suppose , without these commitments , it would have been presented , which is nous that comes the breach . the commission is currently the analyser . since they are already commencées , envisageons with réalisme the range of options which are now the united kingdom and the authorities in gibraltar . cooperation and the calm are methods in use within our union . the government in britain behaves as was pointed out the government russian at a avarie avoidance of one of its sous-marins . mr president , i too , i would like to express my deepest support for our spanish colleagues vis--vis the last assassination terroriste eta . the commission , in my reply neat that she has provided there are two months and in the response of today , has assumed responsibility for the acknowledged , although the proposal for a resolution of the group grassroots which , together with other banalisations 's viewpoint , we have empêchés 's share , did not have acknowledged . the minister 's key government to gibraltar , mr peter caruana , has made a wise decision , when he asked for a panel of experts from the confine myself to the abreast of developments in the situation . that is and remains as to how the most cohérente and one which provides the best interests and the safety of all parties concerned . b5-0908 / 2000 by mrs maij-weggen and mr posselt , on behalf of the ppe-de group ; in 1980 , the hcr has played in five million refugees . today we saluons unhcr and all staff calmly . mr president , the commission is lumps together , of course the support which parliament inflicts the unhcr in the course of the 50e anniversary of that institution . i want to develop something more broadly , which has a report vested with what the honourable member has said just now . b5-0909 / 2000 by mrs pack and others , on behalf of the ppe-de group ; the final issue i would like to raise relates to the events dramatiques which have occurred at the border between serbia and kosovo . that is what is the place of milosevic and not to congrès party in belgrade . we for our mentalité groups ethnic kossovo which luttent even amongst themselves must change and become a mentalité based on respect mutuel . i do not want chanter our own praise , but we can also say that the european union has réagi very quickly in this new situation . 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 government chilien has ensured that the chili , general pinochet would have a trial équitable and , indeed , it has now lost its immunité and judicial authorities chiliennes entament prosecutions against him . i should like to point out that it is important that we approuvions this resolution municipality , now that pinochet is at the chili , what we have not managed to do when pinochet was in the uk . i will say in sachant that these basic principles are those parties of the european free alliance and green groups in this house . mr president , first of débuter my speech , i would like to joindre at the condamnation of the attentat which has coûté life as a member of the people , a activist and a advising people 's party in catalogne , in spain . that is why i am delighted that my political group and i believe that the majority of our parliament , will leave no cause to play the caisses of résonance for the exploitation of the crisis in progress . life is in great danger . the league of human rights is suspended , its premises are bowing to scellés and its president , moktar trifi , is convoqué before the tribunal , since it has to be said , the twenty-fifth of december . the défenseurs human rights , the syndicalistes , of scholar , of journalists and students are exigencies of hassle constantes on the part of the authorities . it is in a state very critical . the harass daily and the tabassage from all the démocrates are actually généralisés . i hope that in this case the system of judicial chilien will continue to do so with independence and to effectiveness . we know that the heads of mission in the european union adheres closely monitoring the situation policy in the country . finally , i would like to mention the role crucial played by parliament , which has helped to raise the awareness and to intensify the dialogue on these issues , through visites parliamentarians and debates audiences like this . laurent gbagbo must enter into a genuine policy of reconciliation nationale , which involves the break with the speech on the ivoirité . the modification of the constitutional racist , and by the holding of elections democratiques where none of the candidates were excluded , otherwise the risks of sécession and war civil does not make that croître . mr president , news of the ivory coast are cause for some months the concern warranted amongst the citizens of europe and the concern corresponding to this house . the conditions required are the suivantes : that nobody is sente excluded , as the court suprême imposed by the military authorities disparaisse , that the head of state is implicates without ambiguity in the process of restoration of democracy and a listens to the opinion of the committee on the reconciliation nacional . the concept of ivoirité seems to me personally outstandingly well founded . a demi-douzaine of exemplaires are now available to the president . mr president , on behalf of the greens , we retirons as our motion for a resolution . mr president , i can confirm what has just said , mr posselt . ( the minutes are approved ) with regard to these people , the member states must implement various policies , while attaquant but also to the problem of the aid needed than in the coverage of costs , particularly those with disabled people whose families are actually not capable of taking on a took over short and complete . mr president , this is a great pleasure for me to speak on behalf of the greens / european free alliance and to congratulate the rapporteur on her excellent report . now , thanks to the improvement of resources sanitaires , information , the health care , the housing and regimes pension , more and more people are living longer longstanding . this is mainly the governments of member states , the administrations of member fédérés , of provinces et des communes which , by many recommendations , can be avérer somewhat useful . the basis of this vision of life is jetée within the family , in which all be human grandit as child . it is often seen over the years of life , we tombe gravely malade , there is still completely handicapé . i was in need of aid for all . in terminant , i would like to stress a point which relate to care medical . the debate was too . women are not to work so that people should have a job . at first analyses , so far , this may seem a handicap . we will have to find the means . the many elderly actives should be motiver as we strive for a society in which solidarity among the générations is more than a belle floor ! these measures must be adaptées the different situations and features regarding the quality of life and the autosuffisance economic . only in effort joint and soutenus can we help . it must exister a margin for manoeuvre discrétionnaire for the preferences and decisions individuelles . if someone cross-cutting every objets which manquent to our colleague , prière of the ramener , particularly its lunettes , because marialiese flemming was in your dos , mr fatuzzo . finally , we should re-impose explicitly in the text the possibility of actions in favour of ultraperipheral regions and their logo . we must also insist on the methods of production which are respectueuses wellbeing of animals and the environment . it is also the reason why i am pleased that this week , the european parliament , we have created a working group for the biotechnologies . of course , these actions communications on institutional affairs should rather supplementing the operations publicitaires orchestrées by the vast distribution in particular . if the proposals made by parliament , which involve three times have obtained a majority of our voice , were applied , but it is just one example of the impuissance parliament - to ensure that the jachères can be cultivées with human légumineuses or the trèfles and that the pâturages are permitted - we disposerions over pâturages and therefore more fourrages to proteins . it is normal that these costs are supportés by producers , the vendeurs and organisations careers , and not by the european union . we must ask ourselves why we have failed in the past to encourage industry within the european union to use the money which was available . of course , if we can produce and promotion of products dietary better for the environment , in prenant into account the welfare of animals , and the sell on the markets globalising , then we réaliserons bothers the purpose for which common agricultural policy has been framed . with regard to amendments nos 9 and 10 which require the creation of a comté management special , and as regards amendments nos 7 , 19 , 23 and 27 , which require further changes in order , i should add that the commission should adhere to the terms of procedure coherent . all those who would like to point out that in europe we aime even the good things are right . mr president , it is scientifiquement prouvé that consumption modérée of wine is one of the best préventions against cancer , the infarctus , ill-health of alzheimer , and so on . . ( nl ) i would like to louer him on his work .
