THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 285(1) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Central Bank  (1),

Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (2),

Whereas:

(1)

Council Regulation (EC) No 1165/98 of 19 May 1998 concerning short-term statistics (3) established a common basic framework for the collection, compilation, transmission and evaluation of Community business statistics for the purpose of the analysis of the economic cycle.

(2)

The implementation of the Regulation (EC) No 1165/98 effected by Commission Regulations (EC) No 586/2001 (4), (EC) No 588/2001 (5), and (EC) No 606/2001 (6), concerning respectively the definition of Main Industrial Groupings (MIGs), the definition of variables and the granting of derogations to Member States, has created a body of practical experience that allows the identification of measures for further improvements in the short-term statistics.

(3)

The Ecofin Council in its Action Plan on EMU Statistical Requirements and in subsequent progress reports on the implementation of that Action Plan identified additional fundamental aspects for improving the statistics covered by Regulation (EC) No 1165/98.

(4)

For its monetary policy, the European Central Bank needs short-term statistics to be developed further, as stated in its document. ECB Statistical Requirements, in the field of General Economic Statistics, and in particular, the Bank needs timely, reliable and meaningful aggregates for the eurozone.

(5)

The Statistical Programme Committee, established by Council Decision 89/382/EEC (7) has identified Principle European Economic Indicators (PEEI) that go beyond the scope of Regulation (EC) No 1165/98.

(6)

It is therefore necessary to amend Regulation (EC) 1165/98 in areas of particular importance to monetary policy and to the study of the business cycle.

(7)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Statistical Programme Committee.

(8)

The implementation of the Lisbon strategy for growth and employment includes the reduction of unnecessary burdens on businesses and the dissemination of new technologies,

(4)

Article 12(1) is replaced by the following:

Quality of criminal justice in the European Union

European Parliament recommendation to the Council on the quality of criminal justice and the harmonisation of criminal law in the Member States (2005/2003(INI))

The European Parliament,

having regard to the proposal for a recommendation to the Council by António Costa, on behalf of the PSE Group, on the quality of criminal justice in the European Union (B6-0234/2004),

having regard to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in its resolution 217 A (III) of 10 December 1948, and in particular Articles 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 thereof,

having regard to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in its resolution 2200 A (XXI) of 16 December 1966, which entered into force on 23 March 1976, and in particular Articles 2, 7, 9, 10 and 14 thereof,

having regard to the Council of Europe Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms of 4 November 1950 (ECHR), which entered into force on 3 September 1953, and in particular Articles 6 and 13 thereof,

having regard to Title VI of the Treaty on European Union, and in particular Articles 29, 31(1)(c) and 34(2)(a) and (b),

having regard to the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe, signed by the Member States in Rome on 29 October 2004, and in particular Articles I-42 and III-260 (evaluation mechanisms), III-270 and III-271 (judicial cooperation in criminal matters), and II-107 to II-110, which take over the provisions of Articles 47 to 50 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union,

having regard to the Community acquis in the field of criminal justice, in particular the Convention on Mutual Assistance in Criminal Matters (1), the Council Framework Decision 2002/584/JHA of 13 June 2002 on the European arrest warrant and the surrender procedures between Member States (2), Council Framework Decision 2003/577/JHA of 22 July 2003 on the execution in the European Union of orders freezing property or evidence (3), the proposal for a Council framework decision on the European Evidence Warrant for obtaining objects, documents and data for use in proceedings in criminal matters (COM(2003)0688) and the proposal for a Council framework decision on certain procedural rights in criminal proceedings throughout the European Union (COM(2004)0328),

having regard to the relevant articles of the Treaty of Accession providing for the possibility of suspending the application of certain provisions of the area of freedom, security and justice in the event of failure to comply with certain rules (which requires that such rules are defined beforehand),

having regard to its recommendation of 14 October 2004 to the Council and to the European Council on the future of the area of freedom, security and justice as well as on the measures required to enhance the legitimacy and effectiveness thereof (4),

having regard to the Hague Programme adopted by the European Council at its meeting in Brussels on 4/5 November 2004,

having regard to Rules 114(3) and 83(5) of its Rules of Procedure,

having regard to the report of the Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs (A6-0036/2005),

A.

whereas Articles II-107 to II-110 of the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe and Articles 6 and 13 of the ECHR define the scope of the ‘right to justice’ which the Union and its Member States, each within its jurisdiction, must guarantee EU citizens,

B.

whereas this right to justice includes, in particular, the right to an effective remedy, the right of access to an impartial tribunal, the right to a fair trial, the right to be tried within a reasonable time and the right to access to legal aid, as well as full respect for the fundamental rights of persons suspected of an offence prior to criminal proceedings and the right to respectful and humane treatment, pursuant to the international standards of the UN and of the European Convention on the prevention of torture and inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, for convicted persons following such proceedings,

C.

whereas protection of these rights is all the more essential in criminal proceedings, in which fundamental freedoms are at stake,

D.

whereas responsibility for protecting these rights lies first and foremost with each Member State, which does so in accordance with its own constitutional set-up and legal traditions; whereas Member States need to deal with the problems existing in their own legal systems, especially those identified by the European Court of Human Rights; whereas, however, a genuine European area of freedom, security and justice must guarantee European citizens comparable treatment throughout the Union and requires greater mutual trust between Member States with a view to mutual recognition of judicial decisions, including even the surrender of their own citizens to the courts of another Member State,

E.

having regard to the case law of the European Court of Justice in Luxembourg and of the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg and the fact that the case law of both courts should be consistent,

F.

whereas, since the adoption of the Tampere programme (paragraph 33), the principle of mutual recognition of judicial decisions has become a cornerstone of judicial cooperation within the Union,

G.

whereas the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe (Article III-260) and the Hague Programme (in particular paragraph 3.2 thereof) recognise the importance of mutual evaluation between Member States in order to strengthen mutual trust, which is a precondition for mutual recognition, as is the adoption of minimum substantive and procedural standards and the setting of reasonable time-limits,

H.

whereas the evaluation of the quality of justice in the EU should also concern the working methods of the judges and the different systems of administration of justice in the Member States; whereas this does not contradict the notion of due respect for the principle of the independence of the judiciary,

I.

whereas this evaluation needs to be grounded in a common framework of reference which can guarantee its coherence and objectivity,

J.

whereas the most appropriate tools and procedures need to be defined for the purposes of this evaluation and in order to step up exchanges of information and training opportunities in support of the quality of criminal justice in Europe,

K.

whereas the creation within the EU in recent years of European networks, such as the Association of Councils of State and Supreme Administrative Jurisdictions, the Network of Supreme Court Presidents, the Network of Supreme Courts and the European Network of Councils for the Judiciary, testifies to the growing awareness of the need to work together in order to improve the quality of the justice offered to the Union's citizens,

L.

having regard to the key role played by training in developing a common legal culture and a culture of fundamental rights within the Union, in particular via the actions of the European judicial training network,

M.

whereas the improvement of the quality standards of justice and of its efficiency on the basis of the evaluation must enhance both the quality of substantive and procedural criminal provisions and the quality of their implementation, which is not in contradiction with due respect for the principle of the independence of the judiciary,

N.

whereas mutual evaluation requires a specific methodology, taking into account the complexity of the process,

O.

whereas the Hague Programme acknowledges the need to adopt the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe as a reference framework and to begin the preparatory work to ensure that the measures provided for in the Constitutional Treaty can be implemented as soon as it enters into force,

P.

having regard to the public seminar held by its Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs on 18 January 2005 on promoting enhanced quality of justice in Europe,

Q.

approving the guidelines of the Hague Programme concerning the strengthening of mutual trust (paragraph 3.2.), especially by improving the quality of justice, by developing evaluation and by means of the invaluable contribution of the networks of legal institutions and organisations,

R.

recalling paragraph 3.2 of the Hague Programme, which highlights the need to respect the diversity of the various structures and traditional features of national legal systems and the independence of the judiciary in each Member State, while promoting enhanced quality of justice in Europe through mutual trust,

1.

Addresses the following recommendations to the European Council and the Council:

(a)

immediately initiate a European Union action to enable European citizens throughout the Union, whatever the legal and constitutional set-up of the Member State in which they find themselves, to enjoy the right to justice in both comparable conditions and on the basis of ever-higher quality standards, thus acquiring greater trust in the administration of justice,

(b)

define with the Member States a ‘Quality Charter for Criminal Justice in Europe’ to serve as a common reference framework for all the Member States and ensure consistent and objective evaluation; this Charter should be drawn up taking due account of the experiences acquired and work done at national level, as well as at international level by the Council of Europe and the United Nations,

(c)

in order to strengthen mutual trust between national legal systems, while respecting their diversity, establish a mechanism for ongoing mutual evaluation, with the Quality Charter as its objective reference framework, taking account of experiences in other areas in which mutual evaluation is already operational (Schengen, terrorism, enlargement, etc), preparing the way, as far as possible, for the mechanism set out in Article III-260 of the Constitutional Treaty and meeting the following objectives:

establishment of a comparative statistical database,

organisation of benchmarking exercises,

dissemination of best practices,

information on the nature and operation of judicial systems in the other Member States,

annual publication of an evaluation report on the quality of justice in Europe, accompanied by a series of recommendations to the Council and the Member States with a view to proposing improvements to the problems identified,

(d)

formally set up the mutual evaluation mechanism (procedures, structures, indicators, reports, etc.) on the basis of one or more decisions pursuant to Article 31 of the Treaty on European Union implementing the principles contained in the case law of the Strasbourg and Luxembourg Courts and the guidelines laid down by the Council of Europe's Commission for the Efficiency of Justice,

(e)

involve judges' and lawyers' associations, legal experts, users of the legal system, and the national parliaments in this evaluation, for example by setting up a monitoring committee on the quality of justice, in the spirit of Article I-42(2) of the Constitutional Treaty and in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity; this evaluation could be conducted jointly by the European Parliament and the national parliaments,

(f)

recognise that the creation of an area of freedom, security and justice based on mutual trust is not possible without a minimum of harmonisation of national legislation; with regard to substantive criminal law, Parliament agrees with the Council that priority should be given to the offences expressly referred to in the Constitutional Treaty; with regard to procedural law, the following subjects should have priority:

transparency in the administration of justice, as well as full respect for the fundamental rights of persons suspected of an offence prior to criminal proceedings and the right to respectful and humane treatment of those convicted following such proceedings,

the gathering and assessment of evidence,

the transfer of prisoners to enable them to serve their sentences in the Member State of residence,

the serving of non-custodial sentences in the Member State of residence,

the execution of enforcement measures in the Member State of residence,

minimum rights of prisoners in any Member State,

further conviction in respect of acts already subject to harmonisation measures,

the system for protecting the depositions of witnesses and victims;

recognise that the evaluation should also be carried out on the basis of the above elements with a view to taking or continuing initiatives at Union level in these fields,

(g)

recognise that the corollary of the principle of mutual evaluation must be the promotion of training actions for all legal professionals, based on the European networks of legal organisations and institutions; thus, in the context of the adoption of the financial perspective for 2007-2013 and pursuant to the provisions of the Hague Programme (paragraph 3.2, subparagraph 2), provide for financial support to be given to the European networks of legal organisations and institutions, to the exchange programmes between legal authorities initiated by Parliament (notably under budget heading 18 05 01 03), and to new pilot schemes enabling the cooperation of agents or organisations in the Member States, with the objective of improving the quality of justice,

(h)

call on the Commission immediately to incorporate the ‘Quality Charter for Criminal Justice in Europe’, the mutual evaluation mechanism and supplementary measures for the harmonisation of certain criminal provisions into the Action Plan which it is due to submit in 2005 in accordance with the Hague Programme; note, in this connection, that Parliament joins the European Council in recommending that the Commission adopt the provisions contained in the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe as the reference framework for the Action Plan;

2.

Instructs its President to forward this recommendation to the Council and, for information, to the Commission, the governments and parliaments of the Member States, and the Council of Europe.

D.

noting in particular the significant volume of cases undertaken by the Competition Directorate-General of the Commission, where Commission decisions have either been fully accepted by the parties or upheld by the Courts,

1.

Welcomes the XXXIIIrd report on Competition Policy, which highlights the major structural reforms of competition policy and enforcement taken forward under Commissioner Monti's leadership;

2.

Congratulates the Commissioner on maintaining constant and vigorous monitoring of distortions in competition, while undertaking far-reaching reorganisation and renewal of the anti-trust, merger control and state aid rules and internal reorganisation of the Competition Directorate-General;

3.

Welcomes the adoption of a series of acts included in the modernisation package, namely the initiatives in the field of cooperation between the various enforcers of EU competition rules — the Commission, national competition authorities and national courts; in this connection, considers that it is also worth mentioning the appointment of a Chief Competition Economist, the strengthening of the role of the Hearing Officer and the reinforcement of the cartel unit, which will reduce the time required to conclude cartel cases;

4.

Regrets the need for renewal of the 'temporary defensive mechanism' by the Council justifying the granting of aid of up to EUR 100 million to shipyards in Germany, the Netherlands, Finland and Denmark as a response to unfair competition from shipyards in South Korea, and looks to an early resolution of the dispute in the World Trade Organisation, before the date of expiry of the current mechanism in March 2005;

5.

Insists that the limited number of cases in which the Commission's decisions have been reviewed by the Court of Justice and set aside should not be seen as undermining confidence in the overall system of analysis and enforcement;

6.

Welcomes the development of a specific chapter in the Report on Competition Policy highlighting the Commission's approach in relation to the conditions under which Member States may give financial support to those entrusted with the operation of services of general interest, and following the Commission's report to the Laeken European Council of 14 and 15 December 2001, the Green Paper on services of general interest (COM(2003)0270) adopted by the Commission in on 21 May 2003 and the Altmark judgment (1), urges the Commission to bring forward proposals to increase legal certainty, define good governance and assist national and regional authorities in complying with Articles 87 and 88 of the Treaty;

7.

Urges the Commission to continue to review the operation of the judicial system in relation to competition cases, in order to consider improvements to the speed of access to justice, and in order to maximise the experience and skills of the judiciary dealing with competition cases;

8.

Continues to support a more proactive role for the European Parliament in the development of competition policy through promoting co-decision powers for the Parliament, and regrets that the Commission and Council were not able to support this in the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe;

9.

Welcomes the revision of state aid rules reorientating the Commission's interest towards cases and issues of significance for the further development of the internal market, which has streamlined and simplified notification and the filing of complaints, and clarified further the 'de minimis' and R & D principles;

10.

Welcomes the view taken by the Commission that state aid for R & D will represent an incentive for SMEs to engage in more R & D, and the consequent proposed amendment to Regulation (EC) No 70/2001 (2) on state aid for SMEs in order to include R & D aid, and calls the attention of the Commission to the differing national capacities within the Member States to engage in such programmes;

11.

Urges the Commission to further develop work on the impact on private companies of emission trading mechanisms, quotas, allowances, certificates and credits under the Kyoto Protocol agreement;

12.

Welcomes the environment-friendly criteria of the Commission applied in the approval of several environmental aid schemes and urges the Commission to further develop the conditions of transparency for such schemes so that they may serve as precedents for other regions and Member States;

13.

Congratulates the Commission on responding positively to previous Parliament resolutions by establishing a dedicated Enforcement Unit for State Aid, charged with the responsibility of enforcing Commission decisions, particularly in the area of recovering unlawful state aid;

14.

Welcomes the further development of the State Aid scoreboard in internet format as an important instrument for transparency and informing consumers of the Commission's activities;

15.

Welcomes the progress towards implementing Commissioner Monti's programme for modernising the Commission's anti-trust rules, with its increased focus on investigation and penalising hard-core cartels, but expresses its concern that the 2003 Report on Competition Policy does not appear as yet to demonstrate any significant reduction in the backlog of cases under investigation by the Commission;

16.

Expresses its concern at the continued failure to achieve full liberalisation in the EU gas and electricity markets;

17.

Welcomes the Commission initiatives in relation to relevant markets, such as telecommunications, and the setting up of task forces between the Competition and the Information Society DGs to manage the consultation process;

18.

Welcomes the Commission's appointment of a Consumer Liaison Officer in order to better develop and facilitate the Commission's dialogue with consumers;

19.

Believes that the effective application of competition policy is an essential tool to achieve an efficient market structure which operates in the interests of consumers, and has a positive and significant impact upon their daily lives; wishes to emphasise that closer integration of the internal market sometimes makes it more natural to analyse the state of competition on the whole internal market, rather than on different submarkets (as has been the case in several recent merger decisions), and calls on the Commission to produce clearer guidelines on its interpretation of ‘the market’ in such cases;

20.

Welcomes the Commission's continued commitment to the European Competition Days as an important opportunity to explain the positive impact of competition policy for consumers in all parts of the EU, but calls on the national authorities hosting these conferences to integrate consumer organisations and the national media into the programme planning for the European Competition Days;

21.

Welcomes the Commission's new rules on motor vehicle distribution, looks for greater progress in reducing the major variations between Member States in prices of new motor vehicles, and regrets the current evidence that these disparities remain significant;

22.

Calls for further progress in relation to the motor vehicle repair market particularly in relation to access to technical information and easier availability of access to motor car spare parts;

23.

Welcomes elements of the Commission's reform of the EC Merger Regulation (3), but regrets that Parliament's concerns about some elements of the proposal regarding legal certainty and fair process were not supported by the Commission;

24.

Welcomes the reorganisation of the Competition Directorate-General of the Commission in the context of the merger control, particularly the restructuring along sectoral lines, the strengthening of economic assessment and greater definition concerning the role of consumers;

25.

Welcomes the Commission's commitment to help the 10 new Member States to adapt rapidly to the competition rules, anti-trust legislation and, in particular, state-aid regulation and urges the Commission to pursue the process of technical assistance and cooperation;

26.

Welcomes the Commission's commitment to pursue a policy of enhanced bilateral cooperation with the Community's main trading partners and to expand multilateral cooperation in the field of competition; in particular, the Commission must be congratulated for concluding cooperation agreements in competition matters with the United States, Canada and Japan;

27.

Urges the Commission to continue to cooperate with OECD countries, Asian countries (with a particular focus on China) and Latin American countries;

28.

Urges the Commission to pursue negotiations with the WTO on the interaction between trade and competition policy, in the spirit of the Doha Declaration of November 2001;

29.

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

State aid in the form of public service compensation

European Parliament resolution on State aid in the form of public service compensation (2004/2186(INI))

The European Parliament,

having regard to the Commission draft decision on the application of Article 86 of the Treaty to State aid in the form of public service compensation granted to certain undertakings entrusted with the operation of services of general economic interest, of 18 February 2004, as transmitted to the European Parliament for opinion on 8 September 2004,

having regard to the Commission draft directive amending Directive 80/723/EEC on the transparency of financial relations between Member States and public undertakings, of 18 February 2004, as transmitted to the European Parliament for opinion on 8 September 2004,

having regard to the Commission working paper on a Community framework for State aid in the form of public service compensation (the ‘Framework’), as transmitted to the European Parliament for opinion on 8 September 2004,

having regard to Articles 2, 5, 16, 73, 86, 87 and 88 of the EC Treaty,

having regard to its previous resolutions on services of general interest, in particular to its resolutions: of 17 December 1997 on the communication from the Commission on services of general interest in Europe (1); of 18 May 2000 on the draft directive amending Commission Directive 80/723/EEC on the transparency of financial relations between Member States and public undertakings (2); of 13 November 2001 on the Commission communication ‘Services of General Interest in Europe’ (3) and its resolution of 14 January 2004 on the Green Paper on services of general interest (4),

having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 69/2001 of 12 January 2001 on the application of Articles 87 and 88 of the EC Treaty to de minimis aid (5),

having regard to the Commission Green paper on services of general interest (COM(2003)0270) and to the communication from the Commission to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions — White Paper on services of general interest (COM(2004)0374),

having regard to the Presidency Conclusions of the Lisbon European Council of 23 and 24 March 2000, the Laeken European Council of 14 and 15 December 2001 and the Barcelona European Council of 15 and 16 March 2002, the latter two of which request the Commission to bring some clarity to the State aid regime in the framework of Article 86(2) of the Treaty,

having regard to the November 2004 report from the High Level Group chaired by Wim Kok regarding the Lisbon Strategy entitled ‘Facing the challenge — the Lisbon strategy for growth and employment’ (6),

having regard to Articles I-3; I-5; II-96; III-122; III-166; III-167; III-238 of the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe, as signed by Member States in Rome on 29 October 2004,

having regard to the case-law of the European Court of Justice relating to services of general interest, and in particular to the Altmark judgment of 24 July 2003 (7),

having regard to the opinion of the Committee of the Regions of 29 September 2004,

having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee of 12 October 2004,

having regard to Rules 45 and 112(2) of its Rules of Procedure,

having regard to the report of the Economic and Monetary Affairs (A6-0034/2005),

A.

whereas high-quality services of general interest (SGI), accessible to all, are not only an important element of social and economic cohesion, but may also contribute considerably to the competitiveness of the European economy,

B.

whereas the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe recognises the right of local authorities to self-government (Article I-5) and makes territorial cohesion a general overall objective of the Union (Article I-3),

C.

whereas the interest of the citizen in his dual role of consumer (of services) and taxpayer must be the guiding principle; whereas compensation to undertakings providing SGIs must be granted with the sole purpose of securing the provision of high-quality, accessible and affordable services; other objectives must be attained with other forms of support,

D.

whereas, without prejudice to the existing internal market rules, local public services are run on the basis of decisions taken by democratically legitimised bodies close to the citizens and able to respond adequately and innovatively to citizens' needs,

E.

whereas the internal market, liberalisation and compliance with the rules on competition have on the whole led to improved access to SGIs, new services with more choice, better quality and lower costs for consumers,

F.

whereas, with a view to evidence-based policy making, the Commission should present a sound and exhaustive evaluation of the liberalisation process, taking into account the point of view of all stakeholders involved (users, local authorities, undertakings, etc.),

G.

whereas the total amount of state aid granted each year in the European Union is equivalent to more than 50 % of the annual budget of the European Union even by the most conservative estimates; whereas state aid has consequences for public finances, for competition and for the ability of private undertakings to invest in a globalised economic environment; whereas state aid compensation is raised from European taxpayers and must therefore be spent responsibly, providing value for money,

H.

whereas it is not always possible to clearly distinguish two separate categories, namely SGI and Services of General Economic Interest (SGEI), as the qualification ‘non-economic’ has two dimensions: the objective and purpose of the service and the legal form of the provider (public, private or other) and the economic context in which it operates (free market, regulated market, state monopoly, etc.); whereas there are great differences across the Member States on both aspects, making a single European definition both impossible and contrary to the principles of subsidiarity and self-government; whereas for practical and operational purposes, however, it is necessary to draw up criteria for establishing under what circumstances exemptions to the competition rules may be granted; whereas the qualification ‘non-economic’ must rest on criteria concerning both the purpose of the service on the one hand, and the service provider and economic context on the other,

I.

whereas public authorities retain sole responsibility at all times for setting the framework of criteria and conditions for service provision, irrespective of the legal status of the provider and of whether the service is provided on the basis of free competition,

J.

whereas the setting of framework criteria and conditions for SGIs and the expected level of service are very much a question of national, regional or local traditions, and should therefore be left to the competent national, regional and local authorities, in the context of their right of self-government, and without prejudice to the current internal market rules,

K.

whereas such a service should be assigned by way of an official act outlining the details of the service obligation, so as to ensure that only recognised SGIs will benefit from the proposed arrangements,

L.

whereas the assignment by such an official act must satisfy transparency criteria and be based on equal conditions for all competitors,

M.

whereas the concept of compensation encompasses any type of aid, whether in the form of cash or physical or human resources, or based on a legal provision or on the legal nature of the beneficiary's status with respect to the financing of the contract,

N.

whereas the Commission proposal applies only to cases which do not satisfy the four criteria defined by the Court of Justice in its Altmark judgment; whereas compensation is not deemed to be state aid if those four criteria are satisfied,

O.

whereas the amount of compensation may not exceed what is necessary for the operation of the service and must not be used to finance activities outside the scope of the service in question (so-called crosssubsidies),

P.

whereas compensation must be available to all operators, irrespective of their legal status, which are entrusted with providing SGIs,

Q.

whereas the granting of state aid to a monopoly usually constitutes an obstacle to a properly functioning market, and must therefore be thoroughly investigated and justified,

R.

whereas the service for which compensation or state aid is permissible under the proposed arrangements should be assigned either by way of a fair and transparent tendering procedure or by way of an official act that, depending on the law in the Member States, may take the form of one or more legislative or regulatory instruments or a contract,

S.

whereas it is difficult to judge the scope and impact of the proposals without data on the number of undertakings, the total amount of state aid and the total administrative burden involved,

T.

whereas the justification for granting state aid to undertakings responsible for an SGI or state compensation should be reviewed at regular and appropriate intervals as new services emerge or, conversely, as existing services become obsolete or are provided by means of new instruments owing to technological progress and changes in society,

U.

whereas effective, stringent controls over the granting of state aid or compensation are required in order to ensure fair competition and transparency and to avoid discrimination,

V.

whereas, when applying the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality, the Commission should focus on controlling infringements that have a significant impact on the internal market; whereas local public services do not normally affect cross-border trade,

General

1.

Welcomes the proposals of the Commission and endorses the aims of reducing unnecessary red tape and providing legal clarification; notes that, as announced by the Commission in its abovementioned White Paper on services of general interest, legal clarification must include a definition of when compensation does not constitute state aid; calls on the Commission, however, to clarify what does not constitute state aid;

2.

Recommends that the arrangements be put in place without delay, so as to limit to a minimum the legal gap that exists between the pronouncement of the Altmark ruling and the date on which the proposed arrangements are to enter into force; considers that, pending their entry into force, these arrangements should apply to all state aid granted after the Altmark ruling and fulfilling the conditions laid down in Articles 1 and 2 of the Decision; considers that state aid not fulfilling those conditions should be dealt with in accordance with the relevant framework directives, guidelines and opinions;

3.

Calls on the Commission to clarify adequately all the legal consequences of the proposed instruments and how they interact and their compatibility with existing EU rules concerning public procurement and with sector-specific EU legislative provisions;

4.

Asks the Commission to clarify the legal status of the Framework, also with a view to enabling the European Parliament to play its full role in this highly political debate;

5.

Points out that the criteria from the Altmark ruling need to be developed and clarified further, in particular the fourth criterion, with its reference to a typical well-run undertaking; calls on the Commission, therefore, to complete the work on the communication interpreting the Altmark ruling that has been announced; suggests that a benchmarking exercise be carried out, coupled with adequate consultation with stakeholders, to clarify these criteria further, with a view to achieving legal certainty;

With regard to the Framework

6.

Endorses the general approach of the Commission in the Framework;

7.

Welcomes the planned exemption for public service broadcasters (point 4), since this recognises the specific characteristics of public service broadcasting as compared to other SGEIs and the powers of the Member States as acknowledged by the Amsterdam Protocol;

8.

Welcomes the fact that the Commission has decided to consult the European Parliament on the proposed framework;

9.

Stresses that the institutions with the relevant democratic legitimacy, namely national, regional and local authorities, should be responsible for defining SGEIs and for imposing obligations on and assessing the service providers entrusted therewith;

10.

Stresses the need to consult widely, with a particular emphasis on users, both when defining service obligations and in assessing whether service obligations are met by the provider; considers that, since state aid is allowed for the provision of a particular service, user satisfaction is the main justification for the granting thereof;

11.

Calls for the rules for undertakings using any over-compensation to finance another SGEI operated by the same undertaking to be applied strictly; such a transfer must be shown in the undertaking's accounts and must be carried out in accordance with the principles set out in the Framework; the Member States must ensure that such transfers are subject to proper control; the transparency rules laid down in Commission Directive 80/723/EEC (8) should apply;

12.

Points out that point 22 (any over-compensation to a public undertaking may be used by the State in its capacity as shareholder to inject finance into that undertaking) seems not to be in line with the principle of neutrality; proposes that it be redrafted so as to cover all providers, regardless of their legal form;

13.

Considers that ‘undertaking’ should be understood as meaning every entity engaged in an economic activity, regardless of the legal status of the entity and the way in which it is financed; ‘public undertaking’ should be understood as meaning any undertaking over which the public authorities may exercise directly or indirectly a dominant influence by virtue of their ownership of it, their financial participation therein, or the rules which govern it, as defined in Article 2(1)(b) of Directive 80/723/EEC;

14.

Considers that the Framework should remain valid for four years following its entry into force; advocates evidence-based policy-making and therefore proposes making the renewal of the Framework subject to a review, including an extensive impact assessment, based on factual information and wide consultation, with particular emphasis on users; the relevant information should be made available to the European Parliament;

15.

Welcomes, in particular, point 11 of the Framework relating to social charges;

With regard to the Draft Decision on the application of Article 86 of the Treaty

16.

Requests the Commission to clearly define the scope of the Draft Decision;

17.

Proposes that ‘small’ SGEIs should be defined as undertakings which do not substantially affect the development of trade and competition, as their turnover is limited or because their activities are of a highly local nature;

18.

Except in the case of ‘small’ SGEIs, as referred to in paragraph 17, insists that, where state aid for SGIs is permissible, such services should be assigned either by way of a fair and transparent tendering process, whereby the amount of state aid is objectively established, or by way of an official act that, depending on the law in the Member States, may take the form of one or more legislative or regulatory instruments or a contract;

19.

Is of the opinion that the threshold for exempting public service compensation from notification requirements should be high enough to ensure sufficient flexibility and minimum administrative burden, without unnecessarily distorting competition; agrees in principle to the references suggested by the Commission, i.e. the standard definition of an SME and the threshold for compensation;

20.

Considers that the Decision should remain valid for four years following its entry into force; advocates evidence-based policy-making and therefore proposes making renewal of the Decision subject to a review, including an extensive impact assessment based on factual information and wide consultation, with particular emphasis on users; the relevant information should be made available to the European Parliament;

21.

Asks the Commission to clarify whether the turnover threshold relates to the undertaking as a whole or to the individual activities of the undertaking;

22.

Calls for additional provisions to avoid the risk of larger undertakings being divided into smaller entities, in order to circumvent the threshold; considers that the same applies to sectors which are made up of many small providers which essentially operate as a single operator;

23.

Notes that the scope of the draft Decision includes hospitals and social housing undertakings, although high volumes of aid may lead to distortions of competition in these areas too; points out that these sectors are also of interest to private operators; points out, furthermore, that the granting of subsidies may have a detrimental effect on competition; in view of this, considers that agreed rules on transparency and the obligation of each Member State to submit a detailed description of the way in which hospitals and social housing undertakings are organised and financed should be strictly applied;

24.

Asks the Commission to clarify what principles it will apply when assessing individual cases;

25.

Considers that, in the field of transport, this decision should only apply to public service compensation for maritime and air links to islands and to air and land links to remote and isolated settlements, granted in accordance with sectoral rules, on which annual traffic does not exceed 300 000 passengers;

With regard to the Draft Directive on transparency

26.

Agrees with the Commission that the criteria from the Altmark ruling need to be clarified further; makes it clear, however, that since the transparency directive is part of the legislative package on state aid, which is intended solely to ensure the policing thereof, its scope must not extend beyond the issue of state aid itself; agrees also with the Commission that undertakings to which compensation is granted in line with the criteria from the Altmark ruling must not be exempted from the requirement to maintain separate accounts;

27.

Notes that there seems to be a time gap between the pronouncement of the Altmark ruling (July 2003), the proposed Framework and Decision (first half of 2005) and the deadline for Member States to comply with the transparency directive (more than 12 months after its publication in the Official Journal); seeks clarification from the Commission as to the provisions in force during this period and possible gaps;

Modifications

Calls on the Commission to take account of the following modifications to its working paper on a Community Framework for State Aid in the form of public service compensation:

COMMISSION WORKING PAPER ON A COMMUNITY FRAMEWORK

MODIFICATIONS BY PARLIAMENT

Modification 13

Point 3a (new)

 

3a. Pending its entry into force, this framework also applies to all state aid granted after the Altmark ruling and fulfilling the conditions laid down in Articles 1 and 2 of the Decision. State aid not fulfilling those conditions is to be dealt with in accordance with the relevant framework directives, guidelines and opinions.

Modification 14

Point 4

4. The provisions of this framework apply without prejudice to the specific provisions relating to public service obligations contained in sectoral Community legislation and measures. They are not applicable to public service broadcasting covered by the Commission communication on the application of state aid rules to public service broadcasting.

Modification 15

Point 7a (new)

 

7a. The concept of compensation encompasses any type of aid, whether in the form of cash or physical or human resources. Advantages which result from a legal provision or the legal status of the beneficiary should be taken into account when assessing the need for compensation.

Modification 16

Point 8

8. It results from the case law that, in the absence of Community rules governing the matter, Member States have a wide margin of discretion regarding the nature of services that could be classified as being SGEIs. Under these circumstances, the Commissions task is therefore to ensure that these provisions are applied with no manifest error. It transpires from Article 86(2) that undertakings entrusted with the operation of SGEIs are undertakings entrusted with ‘a special task’.

Modification 18

Point 10, introduction

The public service task must be assigned either by way of a fair and transparent tendering procedure or by way of an official act that, depending on the legislation in Member States, may take the form of a legislative or regulatory act or a contract. It may also be laid down in several acts. The act or series of acts should specify among other things:

Modification 19

Point 11a (new)

 

11a. Where state aid may be granted for an SGEI, undertakings providing such services should still be chosen pursuant to a fair and transparent tendering procedure, whereby the amount of state aid is objectively established, or by way of an official act that, depending on the law in the Member States, may take the form of one or more legislative or regulatory instruments or a contract.

Modification 20

Point 11b (new)

 

11b. Public authorities remain solely and primarily responsible at all times for setting the framework of criteria and conditions for the provision of services, regardless of the legal status of the provider and of whether the service is provided on the basis of free competition.

Modification 21

Point 11c (new)

 

11c. When defining public service obligations and in assessing whether those obligations are met by the undertaking concerned, the Member States should consult widely, with particular emphasis on users.

Modification 22

Point 21

21. Any over-compensation may be used to finance another SGEI operated by the same undertaking, but such a transfer must be shown in the undertaking's accounts.

21. Any over-compensation may be used to finance another SGEI operated by the same undertaking, but such a transfer must be shown in the undertaking's accounts and be carried out in accordance with the rules and principles set out in this framework. The Member States shall ensure that such transfers are subjected to proper control. The transparency rules laid down in Directive 80/723/EEC shall apply.

Modification 23

However, such transfers must be carried out in accordance with normal commercial procedures, i.e. in the form of a capital increase or the granting of loans, and must comply with the relevant national rules, notably in the commercial and tax fields. This operation must be clearly identified in the balance sheet of the recipient undertaking and must be the result of a formal decision by the public authorities. This decision must identify the exact use to which the financial transfer is to be put. If, though, the financial injection by the State does not comply with the private investor criterion, it must be notified to the Commission in accordance with Article 88(3) of the Treaty.

having regard to the Communication of 2 February 2005 from the Commission to the Spring European Council ‘Working together for growth and jobs — a new start for the Lisbon strategy’ (COM(2005)0024),

having regard to the Presidency Conclusions of the Lisbon European Council of 23 and 24 March 2000, the Göteborg European Council of 15 and 16 June 2001 and the Barcelona European Council of 15 and 16 March 2002,

having regard to the Presidency Conclusions of the Brussels European Councils of 20 and 21 March 2003, 16 and 17 October 2003, 25 and 26 March 2004 and 4 and 5 November 2004,

having regard to the report entitled ‘Facing the Challenge’ by the High-Level Group chaired by Mr Wim Kok,

having regard to the Communication from the Commission of 11 November 2003 entitled ‘A European Initiative for Growth — Investing in Networks and Knowledge for Growth and Jobs — Final Report to the European Council’ (COM(2003)0690),

having regard to the Opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) of 30 October 2003 on the ‘Assessment of the experiences gathered by the EESC to evaluate the economic, social and employment impact of structural reforms in the EU’ (1),

having regard to its resolution on 12 March 2003 on the state of the European economy — preparatory report with a view to the Commission recommendation on the Broad Economic Policy Guidelines (2), its resolution of 15 May 2003 on the Commission recommendation on the Broad Guidelines of the Economic Policies of the Member States and the Community (for the 2003-2005 period) (3) and its resolution of 23 October 2003 on the outcome of the Brussels European Council on 16 and 17 October 2003 (4),

having regard to its resolution of 26 February 2004 on the preparation of the spring summit 2004 (7),

having regard to Article 99, paragraph 2, of the EC Treaty,

having regard to Rule 45 of its Rules of Procedure,

having regard to the report of its Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs (A6-0026/2005),

A.

whereas growth in the eurozone and the 25-Member European Union is unable sustainably to achieve its potential and remains weak; whereas household consumption is still faltering and the economic outlook for 2005 and 2006 remains poor, contributing to a continuing high level of unemployment which will decline only slowly; whereas, despite the lowest interest rates since the Second World War, there is little willingness to invest and no change is foreseeable, at least in the short term; whereas the structural reforms which are, after all, universally regarded as necessary have not been carried out in all the Member States with the requisite care, and whereas reforms at Community level are making only slow progress,

B.

whereas the Lisbon Strategy requires the mobilisation of all existing instruments, in particular the Broad Economic Policy Guidelines (BEPGs) and the appropriate use of the financial perspective,

C.

whereas the pursuit of sustainable growth must be based on social, employment and environmental policies which take account of their responsibility towards future generations and of the need to strengthen social cohesion; whereas social cohesion can only be strengthened if an appropriate level of social protection and a high level of employment are maintained, in accordance with the objectives set by the Treaty, and the sustainability of pension systems can be assured only if the competitiveness of the European economy is improved so that it generates growth, investment and new businesses,

D.

whereas the excessive budget deficits in some Member States are a symptom of a lack of structural reforms and whereas there is a positive correlation between growth and budgetary discipline; whereas the low interest rates which such discipline makes possible generate the essential confidence of economic operators in long-term price stability, and thus create the necessary basis for growth and employment,

E.

whereas the all-time low interest rates have not restored businesses' confidence in the expediency of investment,

1.

Regrets the substantial accumulated delays in implementing the Lisbon Strategy, particularly with regard to structural reforms and the reform of public finances in a number of Member States, which are partly attributable to the multiplicity of objectives; therefore welcomes the definition of the key priorities by the Group chaired by Mr Wim Kok; calls on the Member States to be pro-active in implementing the key priorities; encourages the Commission to focus its efforts on these areas; takes the view that the general guidelines set out in the 2003-2005 BEPGs have not been incorporated into the economic policies of the Member States; calls on the Commission to analyse the best performance of Member States and to learn lessons therefrom; recommends giving greater weight to growth and job creation by means of increased competition and competitiveness within the Lisbon Strategy;

2.

Recalls that financial stability, the reform of public finances and the low interest rates brought about by the stability policy of the European Central Bank are the explicit pillars of the Lisbon Strategy; shares the view expressed by the Economic Policy Committee in its ‘Annual Report on Structural Reforms 2005’ that a macroeconomic framework supportive of stability and growth is indispensable and that Governments will reap the full benefits of structural reforms in terms of growth and employment only in an appropriate macroeconomic environment;

3.

Recommends a simplification and improvement in the coordination of the various instruments available to the European Union; recommends a reduction in the number of reports and programmes both at Community and at national level, with the aim of securing greater commitment by Member States; asks the Commission to step up its efforts to complete the internal market in sectors where there are still protectionist barriers and trade restrictions; also asks the Commission not to slacken its endeavours to secure fair competition in all sectors;

4.

Supports wholeheartedly the independence of the European Central Bank and considers that any influence on monetary policy by the bodies determining economic policies would be contrary to the Treaty, since it would put an end to that independence; proposes the harmonisation of the economic hypotheses used as a basis for drawing up the budgets and of the budgetary timetables of the Member States of the eurozone, taking into account the timetable for drawing up the BEPGs and the employment guidelines;

5.

Reiterates its demand that labour market reforms be implemented in such a way as to strike a balance between flexibility and security; recalls its support for the implementation of policies aimed at encouraging a spirit of enterprise and initiative, innovation and industrial competitiveness and, in this context, its support for the objectives of administrative simplification and the removal of obstacles associated with company taxation by implementing the ‘Monti package’ of fiscal harmonisation measures; stresses finally that the development of quality jobs will be accompanied by an improvement in labour productivity in Europe;

6.

Considers that increased productivity will not in itself suffice to generate the growth needed to cover all economic and social needs and to alleviate the consequences of demographic change, particularly with regard to pension and health systems, and that the implementation of structural reforms cannot be a substitute for macroeconomic policy;

7.

Is alarmed at the persistence of high unemployment and the poor prospects for increasing employment, both in the eurozone and in the Union as a whole; urges that a special effort be made to provide advice and retraining for all those unemployed for more than six months; insists that small and mediumsized undertakings (SMEs) have a key role to play in job creation and is alarmed at the high number of SME bankruptcies in 2004, while at the same time deploring the fact that, unlike larger enterprises, SMEs are not in a position to take full advantage of the favourable financial conditions of the last few years;

8.

Stresses the need to create an environment which promotes a spirit of enterprise and a risk-taking culture which encourages the creation of new businesses by easing the administrative burden on SMEs, by simplifying the regulatory environment, by reducing the general level of taxation in the European Union and by improving access for SMEs to sources of finance, particularly risk capital; proposes reforms designed to increase opportunities for SMEs; draws attention to the decisive role that micro-loans may play in assisting the creation of businesses and jobs; calls for a detailed examination of such instruments, and for them to be taken into account and promoted at Community level;

9.

Reiterates its desire to see the Union gradually achieve self-sufficiency in energy by promoting renewable sources of energy and encouraging the development of alternatives to oil, such as hydrogen; notes that while the rise in oil prices in 2004 should not cause any lasting rise in inflation, it will affect confidence, in particular by directly reducing the purchasing power of households and maintaining uncertainty about investment decisions at the very time when a slowdown in external demand is expected; considers that the efficiency of traditional forms of energy, especially those which do not pose a risk to the objectives of the Kyoto Protocol, must be increased;

10.

Notes that, in all developed countries, households are spending less on ordinary consumer goods and manufactured goods — even cheaper and better quality goods — and more on health, communication and leisure, and notes also the considerable importance of the services sector in Europe's GDP and in terms of employment; considers, therefore, that the slowdown in productivity in this sector is a major factor responsible for sluggish growth in Europe; urges therefore that, in this sector, investment and innovation in information and communications technologies, which play a key role in boosting productivity, should be promoted; recommends opening up this sector to a greater extent to private operators and encouraging the spirit of enterprise in it;

11.

Calls on the Member States firmly to support forward-looking investments, by promoting investment and emulation in research, including basic research, and development, high technology, environmentally-friendly technologies and trans-European infrastructures and networks and education and lifelong learning; recommends increasing public funding for science and research; highlights the importance of a climate which is conducive to the promotion of research and development and of a better integration of product markets and a more positive attitude of the financial markets towards riskier forms of investment; takes the view that investment in social services, in particular in childcare, is essential if there is to be genuine equality between men and women and if female employment is to increase; draws the Commission's attention to the under-exploitation of many latent skilled jobs in the services sector — which are all the more valuable because they are essentially local — in both the private sector and the public sector; stresses the need to invest in and promote jobs in services, in particular educational services, local social services, childcare, care for the elderly and help in the home; believes that account should be taken of the ageing of the population, since this will necessarily lead to the working population itself ageing; notes that older workers often have career problems and are sometimes regarded as too old and too expensive to be promoted or trained; considers accordingly that it is essential to provide them with tailor-made initiatives such as counselling, advice and specific training systems;

12.

Notes that intra-Community trade accounts for the bulk of the external trade of the Member States of the Union, and concludes that the completion of the internal market is necessary in order to contribute to economic growth and thus the social development of the Union; notes, moreover, that most trade with third countries is conducted with developed countries where qualifications and salary levels are analogous to those of the Member States; notes, however, that a growing number of competitors, including China, India and Brazil, are often managing to supply goods and services of the same quality at more competitive prices;

13.

Considers that the growth of free and fair international trade, founded on equal opportunities, on the basis of the Doha commitments will both contribute to the development of poor countries and create new markets for developed countries, and that it is only through growth that developing countries will be able to increase the income of their population and achieve higher social and environmental standards; calls on the Commission to take these considerations into account in future BEPGs;

14.

Reiterates its wish to see both national parliaments and the European Parliament more closely involved in discussions on the BEPGs; considers that this would result in greater democratic accountability and, above all, mean that Member States would embrace them more wholeheartedly and therefore be more committed to their implementation;

15.

Considers that the management of economic policy requires reliable and comparable statistics and calls upon the Commission to increase the means available to Eurostat to carry out its mission of gathering and monitoring the statistics of Member States and, within the framework of the OECD and other relevant international organisations, to press for an improvement in the reliability and comparability of statistics at international level; believes that the administrative burden and the costs involved in collecting statistics must not hamper the competitiveness of businesses; calls for the focus to be on key indicators for measuring the spirit of enterprise;

16.

Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the European Economic and Social Committee, the governments and parliaments of the Member States and the social partners.

Public finances in EMU — 2004

European Parliament resolution on Public finances in EMU — 2004 (2004/2268(INI))

The European Parliament,

having regard to the Commission communication of 24 June 2004 to the Council and the European Parliament on Public finances in EMU — 2004 (COM(2004)0425),

having regard to the Commission communication of 3 September 2004 to the Council and the European Parliament on strengthening economic governance and clarifying the implementation of the Stability and Growth Pact (COM(2004)0581),

having regard to the Commission communication of 27 November 2002 to the Council and the European Parliament on strengthening the coordination of budgetary policies (COM(2002)0668),

having regard to the Commission communication of 27 November 2002 to the Council and the European Parliament on the needs and the means to upgrade the quality of budgetary statistics (COM(2002)0670),

having regard to the Presidency Conclusions of the Lisbon European Council of 23 and 24 March 2000 and of the Gothenburg European Council of 15 and 16 June 2001, with particular reference to the agreed strategy on economic growth, full employment, sustainable development and social cohesion,

having regard to the Presidency Conclusions of the Amsterdam European Council of 16 and 17 June 1997 on the Stability and Growth Pact, to Council Regulation (EC) No 1466/97 of 7 July 1997 on the strengthening of the surveillance of budgetary positions and the surveillance and coordination of economic policies (1), and to the code of conduct on the content and format of the stability and convergence programmes adopted by the Ecofin Council of 10 July 2001,

having regard to the Statement by the Ecofin Council of 13 September 2004 on the Stability and Growth Pact,

having regard to the judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Communities of 13 July 2004 (2) relating to certain measures taken by the Ecofin Council on 25 November 2003,

having regard to Rule 45 of its Rules of Procedure,

having regard to the report of the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs (A6-0025/2005),

A.

whereas the Luxembourg Presidency has included in its work programme an examination of the rules of operation and a clarification of the implementation of the Stability and Growth Pact, and the European Parliament is to adopt a resolution on possible changes to the regulations and rules of conduct governing its application in Spring 2005,

B.

whereas, in the last decade, the EU economy has grown well below its potential, with a decrease not only in private investment but also in gross public investment, which has fallen from 4% of GDP in the early 1970s to 2,4 % in the euro area, and whereas, inter alia owing to a lack of structural reforms and productive investment in many Member States, the GDP growth rate for the eurozone has fallen once again behind predictions,

C.

whereas in 2003 the eurozone budget deficit rose to 2,7% of GDP, up from 1,6% in 2001 and 1,1% in 2000, and approached the 3% threshold in 2004, reaching 2,9 % of GDP,

D.

whereas, by the end of 2002, only four Member States in the eurozone — together accounting for a mere 18% of eurozone GDP — and five euro-area Member States in 2004 had reached a close-to-balance position; whereas, conversely, the number of Member States in the euro area with a budget deficit above 3% of GDP rose from three to four; whereas, since the advent of the Stability and Growth Pact, 12 Member States have breached its rules or those of the EC Treaty, including five in the euro area — Germany, Greece, France, the Netherlands and Portugal — and the United Kingdom, to which the excessive deficit procedure does not apply but which is nevertheless bound by the requirement laid down in Article 116(4) of the Treaty ‘to endeavour to avoid excessive government deficits’ as long as it is in the second stage; whereas the excessive deficit procedure was also launched against the six new Member States exceeding the 3% threshold: the Czech Republic, Cyprus, Hungary, Malta, Poland and Slovakia,

E.

whereas, in September 2004, in response to the apparent disparity between the 1997 rules of the Stability and Growth Pact and recent economic developments, Commissioner Almunia presented proposals for reform, outlined in the abovementioned Commission communication of 24 June 2004,

1.

Notes that, in the Commission's view, the economic cycle is only partly to blame for the higher nominal deficits, which are in fact largely the result of a discretionary loosening of budgetary policy by some Member States;

2.

Notes that some Member States have not responded to the opening of excessive deficit procedures against them by taking sufficient measures to combat their respective deficits, and that there remain sufficient grounds for concern regarding their prospects for bringing their deficits below 3% of GDP in the immediate future;

3.

Highlights the importance of introducing both structural reform packages and investment activities, which in the medium and long term will prove crucial for financial sustainability, the competitiveness of the European economy and growth;

4.

Notes that the management of the economic changes in the countries of central and Eastern Europe has in some new Member States had a severe impact on their deficit and public debt levels; considers that more ambitious fiscal reforms together with structural reforms are necessary to enhance incentives for increased employment and for investment in greater productivity;

5.

Underlines the fact that there is no exception to the rules and procedures of the Stability and Growth Pact but calls on all EU institutions to accept their responsibility in the implementation and control of, and compliance with, the Stability and Growth Pact; calls for all Member States, large or small, to receive equal treatment; considers that, to achieve that, the Commission's role, particularly in launching the excessive deficit procedure, should be enhanced; calls on all Member States to successfully conclude the examination of the Stability and Growth Pact during the Luxembourg Presidency by seeking strong, fair and workable solutions on each chapter heading, as defined by the ECOFIN Council on 13 September 2004, while strengthening the preventive aspect, paying greater heed to differences in economic situations and improving the implementation of the excessive deficit procedure (the corrective part of the Pact) and economic governance;

6.

Urges all Member States that have not yet done so to reduce their deficit levels significantly to below 3% of GDP so as to ensure budgetary and price stability in an enlarged European Union and to allow sufficient financial reserves to be stored up in good times so that economic measures may be taken in difficult times without running the risk of a breach of the Stability and Growth Pact rules;

7.

Highlights the importance of improved budgetary statistics with more accurate and standardised definitions, methods of calculation and procedures, to be set out in a manual of methodological guidelines, and welcomes the initiative of the Commission to present proposals for minimum standards for the independence, integrity and quality of national statistical institutes, and enhanced competence for Eurostat to coordinate, monitor and carry out on-the-spot control of the figures forwarded by Member States;

8.

Urges the new Member States to speed up reform of their public finances by re-allocating resources as a further move towards ensuring genuine convergence of their economies and to focus in particular on the modernisation of their pension and social benefits systems in support of an effective employment policy;

9.

Stresses the need for continuous improvements in fiscal administration and the establishment of an effective tax collection system, in order to create favourable conditions for the activities of enterprises throughout the single market, promote a culture of entrepreneurship and encourage company start-ups;

10.

Reminds the Member States of their commitment in the Stability and Growth Pact to bring their budgets ‘close to balance or in surplus’; considers that excessive deficits should be avoided, so as to contribute to price stability and to ensure sustainability of public finances; recommends a greater emphasis in the Stability and Growth Pact on economic developments and an increased focus on safeguarding the sustainability of public finances; warns that excessive government expenditure puts at risk price stability, low interest rates and government investment levels, and in addition reduces the capacity to face the challenge of demographic changes and ageing populations in the European Union;

11.

Reiterates its call for a clear method, which includes a definition of ‘high-quality public expenditure’, of quantifying public budgetary positions and their contribution to growth and investment, with a view to making a positive contribution to the Lisbon goals; furthermore, calls for public expenditure to be redirected in such a way as to ensure that the various budget headings at European and national level reflect the major political priorities set for 2010;

12.

Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the European Economic and Social Committee, the Committee of the Regions and the governments and parliaments of the Member States.
