    Interoperability of digital interactive television services

    European Parliament resolution of 13 November 2007 on the interoperability of digital interactive television services (2007/2152(INI))

    The European Parliament,

    having regard to Article 11, on freedom of expression and information, of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union,

    having regard to Directive 2002/21/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 March 2002 on a common regulatory framework for electronic communications networks and services (Framework Directive) (1),

    having regard to Directive 2002/19/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 March 2002 on access to, and interconnection of, electronic communications networks and associated facilities (Access Directive) (2),

    having regard to the Commission Communication to the Council, the European Parliament, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions on reviewing the interoperability of digital interactive television services pursuant to Communication COM(2004)0541 of 30 July 2004 (COM(2006)0037),

    having regard to the Communication from the Commission to the Council, the European Parliament, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions on interoperability of digital interactive television services (COM(2004)0541),

    having regard to the Communication from the Commission to the Council, the European Parliament, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions on accelerating the transition from analogue to digital broadcasting (COM(2005)0204),

    having regard to the Communication from the Commission to the Council, the European Parliament, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions on the transition from analogue to digital broadcasting (from digital ‘switchover’ to analogue ‘switch-off’) (COM(2003)0541),

    having regard to its resolution of 27 April 2006 on the transition from analogue to digital broadcasting: an opportunity for European audiovisual policy and cultural diversity? (3),

    having regard to its resolution of 16 November 2005 on accelerating the transition from analogue to digital broadcasting (4),

    having regard to the conclusions of the meeting of the Transport, Telecommunications and Energy Council, held in Brussels from 6 to 8 June 2007, on the i2010 initiative — Annual Information Society Report 2007,

    having regard to the conclusions of the meeting of the Transport, Telecommunications and Energy Council held in Brussels on 9 and 10 December 2004,

    having regard to Council of Europe Recommendation CM/Rec(2007)3 of the Committee of Ministers to member states on the remit of public service media in the information society,

    having regard to Rule 45 of its Rules of Procedure,

    having regard to the report of the Committee on Culture and Education and the opinion of the Committee on Industry, Research and Energy (A6-0390/2007),

    A.

    whereas the switchover from analogue to digital is a great step forward and can contribute towards disseminating culture and improving social cohesion,

    B.

    whereas digital television can make use of new media technology to provide information services and can therefore enhance social cohesion and help bring everyone within the information society,

    C.

    whereas, in keeping with the Commission's view, the successful switchover to digital television is a prerequisite for developing interactive digital services,

    D.

    whereas the digital television services sector has great economic potential and is important as a source of employment,

    E.

    whereas, however, any legislative initiative concerning the digital sector cannot be reduced to a matter of infrastructure and technical data, and whereas these issues should be dealt with in accordance with policy objectives, in a continual quest for added value for users,

    F.

    whereas safeguards should be established at the European and national levels to prevent competition and market forces alone from governing the important choices to be made,

    G.

    whereas Parliament's earlier position needs to be restated, that imposing a single European standard is not the right solution, given the disparity of situations, to achieve the intended objectives, and that for the time being good sense dictates that industry-led, voluntary standardisation measures should be used, as demonstrated by a few positive national examples,

    H.

    whereas the digital television sector in the European Union already benefits from a wide range of robust European standards,

    I.

    whereas it is important for European citizens to take full advantage of the potential benefits of digital television,

    J.

    whereas the expansion of interactive services has so far been minimal compared with the optimistic forecasts made by the experts,

    K.

    whereas the wide range of technical opportunities created by digital broadcasting, such as interactivity, should not be a fresh source of inequality, adding a ‘digital divide’ to the social and cultural divide,

    L.

    whereas it is a cause for concern that this risk may grow for the underprivileged categories, owing to the additional costs of the necessary material,

    M.

    whereas the move from analogue to digital television is making it possible to release spectrum capacity and develop new technologies and innovative solutions which boost European competitiveness in this sector,

    N.

    whereas the new technologies should be mastered at as young an age as possible and education systems should adapt as swiftly and effectively as possible to the cultural and social changes brought about by the new information and communication technologies, convergence and digitisation,

    O.

    whereas particular attention must also be paid to disabled people's access to and mastery of the new information and communication technologies;

    P.

    whereas digital interactive television services include multilingual subtitles, enabling digital television to enhance intercultural dialogue and lifelong learning,

    Q.

    whereas access to a greater number of services should always go hand in hand with freedom of information and expression,

    R.

    whereas, during the entire transition process, care should be taken not to weaken public audiovisual services but, on the contrary, to support them in their public service mission, while preserving the vitality of private audiovisual services,

    Benefiting from the positive effects of technology

    1.

    Affirms that the new audiovisual technologies should allow the broadcasting of pluralist information and quality programmes, accessible to an ever increasing number of citizens;

    2.

    Points out that respect for pluralism of information and diversity of content is not automatically guaranteed by technological progress but must be implemented by national and European public authorities through an active, steadfast and vigilant policy;

    3.

    Considers, given the role of television in a globalised society, that the technical and legislative choices relating to interoperability should be not merely of an economic nature, but also of a social and cultural nature, and stresses that attention should be paid above all to users' interests;

    4.

    Stresses that the establishment of digital platforms is essential to maintaining a common public media zone following the abandonment of analogue technology, and calls on the Member States to promote the provision of wireless digital interactive television services with guaranteed reception from all proprietary platforms;

    5.

    Considers it essential, therefore, for the Commission to submit a report on the results of the exchanges of good practices, forums and working groups among stakeholders, including consumers', users' and viewers' associations;

    6.

    Stresses that the use of interoperable technical solutions which are technology-neutral provides a way of promoting investment and innovation in this sector, thereby stimulating competition and safeguarding consumer choice;

    Succeeding in the digital transition and promoting open standards

    7.

    Maintains that the success, in as short a time as possible, of the transition from analogue to digital is a prerequisite and a priority; is concerned about possible delays in meeting the 2012 deadline;

    8.

    Takes the view that the coordinated development of digital television at Community level is essential if users are to benefit from the advantages of the internal market and in order to reduce the price of television receiving equipment and achieve greater penetration by digital interactive television services; accordingly, urges the Commission to support the Member States in drawing up a common plan of action at Community level;

    9.

    Calls on the Member States to speed up the transfer to digital television, taking account of market demand and topographical and regional demographic factors, and calls on those Member States which have not yet drawn up a national plan for the full switchover to digital television to do so by the end of 2008;

    10.

    Insists that measures taken by the Member States which lead to the expansion of digital interactive television services must comply with the rules on State aid;

    11.

    Stresses the importance of the principle of interoperability to strengthen user confidence in the new services and to develop the market in a positive way on the basis of open, interoperable standards;

    12.

    Stresses the importance of ensuring technological neutrality and developing successful business models;

    13.

    Welcomes the work done by the Commission and its vital and necessary role in coordinating all interested parties;

    14.

    Fully supports the Commission's approach in terms of its intention to cooperate fully with the Member States with a view to switching over to digital television successfully and facilitating interactive digital services;

    15.

    Reiterates that imposing a single standard by legal means is not the right solution but only a final sanction, but does not approve of market intervention alone as a means of resolving the problem of interactivity;

    16.

    Shares, therefore, the Commission's view that it would be advisable to continue promoting open standards such as MHP or MHEG-5, which are recognised by European standards bodies in relation to the switchover to digital and the interoperability of services, and maintains that these open standards are the most appropriate ones for ensuring the technological neutrality of networks and the free movement of information, respecting the special needs of countries where frequency capacities are limited;

    17.

    Stresses that, in view of the example of the ‘submarine patents’ which emerged five years after the MHP standard had begun to be implemented, it is reasonable for licence fees to be fair and publicised at the start of the development of any open standard in order for it to be successful;

    18.

    Stresses the importance of voluntary agreements between digital television service providers on the establishment of a number of common technical specifications for the implementation of standards adopted by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute;

    19.

    Urges the Commission to continue actively to promote the introduction of open European digital television standards in all regions of the world and to encourage international cooperation in this area, thereby ensuring the widest possible access to digital content;

    20.

    Regrets that interactive television in the EU has ultimately proved to be less commercially successful than expected; calls on the Commission to study the reasons for this phenomenon and to submit regular reports on the efforts made by the Commission and the Member States to develop the digital television market and its numerous offshoots;

    21.

    Considers it essential to provide consumers with more information on the opportunities offered by digital platforms and the necessary equipment, so that they are able to make informed technical and cultural choices;

    22.

    Stresses that any public intervention should not be discriminatory or favour one or another market operator;

    23.

    Calls on the Commission to help the Member States and local authorities, by disseminating best practices, to exploit the potential of the new technologies in order to communicate with their citizens more effectively;

    The need to consider the impact and mastery of the new technologies

    24.

    Calls on the Commission and the Member States to inform the public about future developments in digital interactive television services, and recommends that digital television service providers take active steps to inform users about existing interactive services;

    25.

    Regards it as essential to ensure the security of users and the protection of their personal data and privacy, and stresses the importance of consumer confidence in digital interactive television services;

    26.

    Stresses the importance of discussing at European level the social and cultural implications of the digital society and the adaptation of national education systems to the cultural and social changes brought about by the new technologies;

    27.

    Reiterates the importance of educating people of all ages about the digital world and the media;

    28.

    Calls on the Member States to establish mechanisms which guarantee a non-discriminatory structure for electronic programme guides that can guide users through the digital services offered;

    29.

    Points out that the European audiovisual model is based on a creative dichotomy between public and private audiovisual services, and stresses that under no circumstances should the new technologies disturb that balance by weakening the competitiveness of the public sector; recalls that the public sector should continue to have guaranteed access to digital platforms;

    *

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

    Community statistics on public health and health and safety at work ***I

    European Parliament legislative resolution of 13 November 2007 on the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on Community statistics on public health and health and safety at work (COM(2007)0046 — C6-0062/2007 — 2007/0020(COD))

    (Codecision procedure: first reading)

    The European Parliament,

    having regard to the Commission proposal to the European Parliament and the Council (COM(2007)0046),

    having regard to Article 251(2) and Article 285(1) of the EC Treaty, pursuant to which the Commission submitted the proposal to Parliament (C6-0062/2007),

    having regard to Rule 51 of its Rules of Procedure,

    P6_TC1-COD(2007)0020

    Position of the European Parliament adopted at first reading on 13 November 2007 with a view to the adoption of Regulation (EC) No .../2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council on Community statistics on public health and health and safety at work

    (Text with EEA relevance)

    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 Economic and Social Committee (1),

    Having regard to the opinion of the European Data Protection Supervisor (2),

    After consulting the Statistical Programme Committee║ in accordance with Article 3(1) of Council Decision║ 89/382/EEC, Euratom (3),

    Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (4),

    Whereas:

    (1)

    Decision No 1786/2002/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 September 2002 adopting a programme of Community action in the field of public health (2003-2008) (5)║ stated that the statistical element of the information system on public health is to be developed, in collaboration with Member States, using as necessary the Community statistical programme in order to promote synergy and avoid duplication.

    (2)

    Community information on public health has been developed systematically through the Community public-health programmes. Building on this work, a list of European Community Health Indicators (ECHI) has now emerged providing an overview of health status, determinants of health and health systems. In order to make available the minimum statistical data set needed for the calculation of ECHI ║, Community statistics on health should be consistent, when relevant and possible, with the developments and achievements resulting from Community action in the field of public health.

    (3)

    The Council Resolution║ of 3 June 2002 on a new Community strategy on health and safety at work (2002-2006) (6) called on the Commission and the Member States to step up work in hand on harmonisation of statistics on accidents at work and occupational illnesses, so as to have available comparable data from which to make an objective assessment of the impact and effectiveness of the measures taken under the new Community strategy , as well as emphasising, in a specific section, the need to take into account the increase in the proportion of women on the labour market and to respond to their specific needs in relation to policies on health and safety at work . In addition, the Commission Recommendation║ of 19 September 2003 concerning the European schedule of occupational diseases (7) recommended that the Member States progressively make their statistics on occupational diseases compatible with the European schedule, in accordance with the work being done on harmonising European statistics on occupational diseases.

    (4)

    In 2002 the Barcelona European Council recognised three guiding principles for the reform of health care systems: accessibility for all, high quality care and long-term financial sustainability. The Commission Communication║ of 20 April 2004 to the Council, the European Parliament, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions entitledModernising social protection for the development of high-quality, accessible and sustainable health care and long-term care: support for the national strategies using the “open method of coordination”’(COM(2004)0304), proposed starting work to identify possible indicators for joint objectives to develop care systems on the basis of activities undertaken in the context of the Community action programme on health, of Eurostat health statistics and cooperation with international organisations.

    (5)

    Decision No 1600/2002/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 July 2002 laying down the Sixth Community Environment Action Programme (8) includes an action on environment and health and quality of life as a key priority, calling for the definition and development of indicators of health and environment. In addition, the Council conclusions of 8 December 2003 requested that indicators on biodiversity and health be included, under the title ‘environment’, in the structural indicators database used for the annual Spring Report to the European Council; health and safety at work indicators are also included in this database, under the title ‘employment’. The set of sustainable development indicators adopted by the Commission in 2005 also contains a theme on public health indicators.

    (6)

    The European Environment and Health Action Plan 2004-2010 (COM(2004)0416) recognises the need to improve the quality, comparability and accessibility of data on health status for diseases and disorders linked to the environment, using the Community Statistical Programme.

    (7)

    The Council Resolution║ of 15 July 2003 on promoting the employment and social integration of people with disabilities (9)║ called on the Member States and the Commission to collect statistical material on the situation of people with disabilities, including on the development of services and benefits for this group. In addition, the Commission in its Communication of 30 October 2003 to the Council, the European Parliament, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions entitled‘Equal opportunities for people with disabilities — A European action plan’(COM(2003)0650), decided to develop context indicators which are comparable across Member States in order to assess the effectiveness of disability policies. It indicated that maximum use should be made of sources and structures of the European Statistical System, in particular through development of harmonised survey modules, to acquire the internationally comparable statistical information needed for monitoring progress.

    (8)

    In order to ensure relevance and comparability of the data and avoid duplication of work, the statistical activities of Eurostat in the area of public health and health and safety at work need to be carried out in cooperation with the United Nations and its special organisations, such as the World Health Organisation (WHO) and the International Labour Organisation (ILO), as well as the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), when relevant and possible. In particular, a common statistical data collection on the Systems of Health Accounts has been recently implemented together with OECD and WHO.

    (9)

    The Commission (Eurostat) already collects on a regular basis statistical data on public health and health and safety at work from the Member States which provide such data on a voluntary basis. In addition, it also collects data on those areas through other sources. Those activities are developed in close collaboration with Member States. In the area of public health statistics in particular, development and implementation are steered and organised according to a partnership structure between Eurostat and Member States. However, greater accuracy and reliability, coherence and comparability, coverage, timeliness and punctuality of the existing statistical data collections are still needed and it is also necessary to ensure that further collections agreed and developed with the Member States are implemented in order to achieve the minimum statistical data set necessary at Community level in the areas of public health and health and safety at work.

    (10)

    The production of specific Community statistics is governed by the rules set out in Council Regulation (EC) No 322/97 of 17 February 1997 on Community Statistics (10).

    (11)

    This Regulation ensures full respect for the right to the protection of personal data as provided for in Article 8 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.

    (12)

    Directive ║ 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 1995 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data (11) and Regulation (EC) No 45/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2000 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data by the Community institutions and bodies and on the free movement of such data (12) shall apply in the context of this Regulation. The statistical requirements to which Community action in the field of public health, national strategies for the development of high-quality, accessible and sustainable health care and Community strategy on health and safety at work give rise, as well as requirements arising in connection with structural indicators, sustainable development indicators and ECHI and other sets of indicators which it is necessary to develop for the purpose of monitoring Community and national political actions and strategies in the areas of public health and health and safety at work, constitute a substantial public interest.

    (13)

    The transmission of data subject to statistical confidentiality is governed by the rules set out in Regulation (EC) No 322/97 and in Council Regulation (Euratom, EEC) No 1588/90 of 11 June 1990 on the transmission of data subject to statistical confidentiality to the Statistical Office of the European Communities (13). Measures which are taken in accordance with those Regulations ensure the physical and logical protection of confidential data and ensure that no unlawful disclosure and nonstatistical use occur when Community statistics are produced and disseminated.

    (14)

    In the production and dissemination of Community statistics under this Regulation, the national and Community statistical authorities should take account of the principles set out in the European Statistics Code of Practice, which was adopted by the Statistical Programme Committee on 24 February 2005 and attached to the Commission Communication to the European Parliament and to the Council on the independence, integrity and accountability of the national and Community statistical authorities and promulgated by the Recommendation of the Commission of 25 May 2005 on the same subject (COM(2005)0217).

    (15)

    Since the objective of this Regulation, namely the establishment of a common framework for the systematic production of Community statistics on public health and health and safety at work, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States and can therefore be better achieved at Community level, the Community may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty. In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Regulation does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve that objective.

    (16)

    The measures necessary for the implementation of this Regulation should be adopted in accordance with Council Decision ║ 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission (14).

    (17)

    In particular, the Commission should be empowered to determine definitions, subjects and breakdown (including variables and classifications — inter alia, where possible and necessary, classifications by gender and age) , sources whenever relevant and provision of data and metadata (including reference periods, intervals and time limits) as regards the domains referred to in Article 2 and in Annexes I to V to this Regulation. It is important that gender and age be included in the breakdown variables as this allows the impact of gender and age differences on health and safety in the workplace to be taken into account. Since those measures are of general scope and are designed to amend non-essential elements of this Regulation, inter alia by deleting some of those elements or by supplementing this Regulation with new non-essential elements, they must be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny provided for in Article 5a of Decision 1999/468/EC.

    (18)

    Complementary financing for the collection of the data in the field of health and safety will be provided in the framework of the Community Programme for Employment and Social Solidarity — Progress, as established by Decision No 1672/2006/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 2006 (15). Within this framework financial resources should be used to help Member States in further building up national capacities to implement improvements and new tools for statistical data collection in the field of health and safety at work,

    HAVE ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

    The role of sport in education

    European Parliament resolution of 13 November 2007 on the role of sport in education (2007/2086(INI))

    The European Parliament,

    having regard to Articles 149, 150 and 152 of the EC Treaty,

    having regard to Declaration no. 29 on sport, annexed to the Treaty of Amsterdam, the Commission's Report on sport, presented at the Helsinki European Council on 10 and 11 December 1999 (COM(1999)0644) and to the Nice Declaration on the specific characteristics of sport and its social function in Europe in Annex IV to the Presidency conclusions of the Nice European Council meeting (7 to 9 December 2000),

    having regard to the Commission's White Paper on Sport (COM(2007)0391),

    having regard to the Commission's White Paper entitled ‘A Strategy for Europe on Nutrition, Overweight and Obesity related health issues’ (COM(2007)0279) ,

    having regard to the Commission's evaluation of the European Year of Education through Sport (EYES 2004) programme (COM(2005)0680),

    having regard to the Council of Europe's Recommendation on improving physical education and sport for children and young people in all European countries, adopted by the Committee of Ministers on 30 April 2003 (Rec(2003)6),

    having regard to the Commission's Green Paper entitled ‘Promoting healthy diets and physical activity: a European dimension for the prevention of overweight, obesity and chronic diseases’ (COM(2005)0637),

    having regard to the study published by the European Parliament entitled ‘Current situation and prospects for physical education in the European Union’,

    having regard to its resolutions of 13 June 1997 on the role of the European Union in the field of sport (1) and of 5 June 2003 on women and sport (2),

    having regard to its resolution of 29 March 2007 on the future of professional football in Europe (3),

    having regard to its resolution of 14 April 2005 on doping in sport (4),

    having regard to Articles 6 and 149 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, as set out in the draft Treaty of Lisbon,

    having regard to Rule 45 of its Rules of Procedure,

    having regard to the report of the Committee on Culture and Education and the opinions of the Committee on Women's Rights and Gender Equality and the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs (A6-0415/2007),

    A.

    whereas physical education is the only school subject which seeks to prepare children for a healthy lifestyle and focuses on their overall physical and mental development, as well as imparting important social values such as fairness, self-discipline, solidarity, team spirit, tolerance and fair play,

    B.

    whereas overweight caused by a sedentary lifestyle and incorrect diet, giving rise in some cases to poor health and psycho-social problems and illnesses which are associated with expensive complications, such as high blood-pressure, diabetes, and cardiac and vascular diseases, is affecting an ever greater proportion of the EU's population, including around a quarter of the child population,

    C.

    whereas school physical education and sport are among the most important tools of social integration, but whereas for some minority and religious communities, and for children with disabilities, full participation in physical education is in many cases not guaranteed and raises numerous problems that are difficult to solve,

    D.

    whereas the number of physical education lessons has fallen in the past decade not only in primary but also in secondary schools, and whereas there are extremely wide divergences between the Member States as regards the provision of establishments and equipment,

    E.

    whereas physical education teacher training programmes differ widely among the Member States and there is an increasingly widespread practice whereby physical education is taught in school by teachers with inadequate specialist training,

    F.

    whereas there is no appropriate coordination aimed at reconciling school and out-of-school sporting activities, and at making better use of existing establishments, and whereas the link between them varies from one Member State to another,

    G.

    whereas parents have a crucial role to play within the network of partnerships in this area, and whereas parental support for children's sporting activities is of vital importance, since parents set an example for their children and it is they who enable children to have access to establishments and programmes,

    H.

    whereas the legal frameworks governing physical education and sport, and those governing EU funding for those activities, are both equally uncertain,

    I.

    bearing in mind the fact that public health and the protection of young people are priorities of the EU and for this reason special emphasis should be placed on combating doping in sport,

    J.

    bearing in mind that sport is one of the most effective measures for combating smoking, especially among young people,

    1.

    Reaffirms the EU's legitimate interest in sport, in particular its social and cultural aspects, as well as the educational and social values that sport transmits such as self-discipline, challenging personal limitations, solidarity, healthy competition, respect for opponents, social inclusion, opposition to any form of discrimination, team spirit, tolerance, and fair play;

    2.

    Stresses the significance of implementing the abovementioned Amsterdam and Nice declarations, especially the specific characteristics of sport in Europe and its social function account of which should be taken when implementing common policies;

    3.

    Stresses that, in our multicultural society, sport can and should be an integral part of formal and informal education and that studies have shown that regular physical activity improves mental and physical wellbeing, while having beneficial effects on learning abilities;

    4.

    Calls on the Member States and the competent authorities to ensure that greater stress is placed on health development in school and preschool teaching programmes by encouraging specific forms of physical activity suitable for the preschool age group and raising awareness within clubs and associations in order to ensure, for example, that children can start physical activity at the earliest possible age, for the benefit of their development and health, and hence to guarantee physical education status in accordance with the profile of the institution and the corresponding level of study;

    5.

    Points out that sport and physical activity can make an important contribution to combating negative health trends such as a sedentary life-style and obesity; refers to Eurobarometer 246 on Health, Food and Nutrition published in November 2006 which addresses the health and physical characteristics of Europeans, their diets and problems relating to obesity and lack of exercise;

    6.

    Urges the Member States to carry out information campaigns, aimed at children from a very early age and their parents, on the need to adopt a healthy lifestyle, to engage in regular physical activity and on the health risks linked to an unhealthy diet;

    7.

    Welcomes the informal working parties set up by the Commission and the Council in the area of sport, and proposes that these working parties pay more attention to reinforcing the link between health and physical education at school;

    8.

    Proposes that the work of the group of experts involved in the ‘EU Platform on Diet, Physical Activity and Health’ set up by the Commission in March 2005 be reinforced through the participation of physical education teachers and experts in the field of sport;

    9.

    Calls on the Member States to consider, and where necessary implement, changes in the orientation of physical education as a subject, taking into account children's health and social needs and expectations;

    10.

    Calls on the Member States to make physical education compulsory in primary and secondary schools, and to accept the principle that the timetable should guarantee at least three physical education lessons per week, while schools should be encouraged to exceed this prescribed minimum as far as possible;

    11.

    Calls on the Member States and the responsible authorities to promote body awareness and health through a higher degree of integration between sport and academic subjects;

    12.

    Awaits the conclusions of the Commission Working Party on Sport and Health on what the minimum level of recommended daily bodily exercise should be and as regards the promotion of physical activity at school;

    13.

    Welcomes the Commission White Paper on sport, which represents an important step towards the future development of Community action in the field of sport, and hopes that the issue of school physical education will form part of the ‘Pierre de Coubertin’ Action Plan (SEC(2007)0934);

    14.

    Welcomes the abovementioned Commission's White Paper on health issues, which identifies prevention, primarily by means of the promotion of exercise and an increase in the number of participants in sport, as a priority;

    15.

    Welcomes the achievements of the abovementioned EYES 2004 programme, which stressed the role of sport in education and drew attention to the wide-ranging social role of sport;

    16.

    Stresses that the results of the EYES 2004 programme must be used to the full, capitalising on and further developing good practices through new initiatives that are in receipt of public and private funding or that are being promoted in the spirit of corporate social responsibility;

    17.

    Welcomes the decision of the International Olympic Committee to hold the Youth Olympic Games as of 2010, an event which will contribute to young people's awareness of the Olympic spirit and the value of sport;

    18.

    Considers that sports education and training, with a particular emphasis being placed on Olympic ideals, is an effective instrument for the social inclusion of disadvantaged groups and multicultural dialogue, and for the promotion of voluntary work; further considers that it plays an active part in counteracting discrimination, intolerance, racism, xenophobia and violence;

    19.

    Encourages Member States to modernise and improve their physical education policies, principally to ensure that a balance is struck between physical and intellectual activities in schools, to invest in quality sports facilities and take appropriate measures to make sports premises and sports curricula at schools accessible to all students, with proper regard being paid to the needs of disabled students; suggests that support be given for a wide range of sporting activities so that every student has a real opportunity to participate in different sports; calls on the Member States to support the requirement to increase the time spent on physical education in schools and to promote the legal recognition of institutions and organisations which contribute to better integration of sports activities in schools and preschools; favours granting incentives to sports clubs having partnership agreements with schools, educational establishments, youth centres, and other community or voluntary organisations involved in lifelong learning projects;

    20.

    Calls on the Member States to guarantee the right conditions for ensuring compliance with the prescribed minimum number of physical education lessons, bearing in mind that regular exercise contributes significantly to reducing health care expenditure;

    21.

    Invites all Member States to ensure the teaching of physical education at all levels, including primary school, by specialised physical education instructors;

    22.

    Urges the Member States, in the spirit of the Bologna process, to ensure a greater level of convergence between training programmes for physical education teachers at each school level and ensure the continuous professional training of physical education teachers integrating gender specific aspects, and to devise an independent supervision system in the interest of guaranteeing quality;

    23.

    Urges the Member States, in cooperation with physical education colleges, to provide high-quality, allround education, equipping athletes with all the necessary skills to enter the employment market or pursue their studies in higher education institutions and beyond;

    24.

    Calls on the Member States and competent authorities to provide physical education teachers with training on gender issues by including this aspect in their respective curricula; calls for an end to the downgrading of the status of physical education as a subject and of the status of physical education teachers; stresses the importance of the possibility of sports coeducation for children at nursery and primary schools as well as the option of having either sports coeducation or single sex classes from secondary level onwards in order to encourage girls to try out sports traditionally practised by men; stresses the need to explore alternative forms of physical activity, which could be practised on an optional basis, preferably outside compulsory state education;

    25.

    Considers that the qualifications acquired through sports activity should be recognised under the common reference system embodied in the future European Qualifications Framework; welcomes the Commission proposal to include sport within the field of application of the European Credit Transfer System for Vocational Education and Training; considers that increased transparency and mutual recognition of licences and diplomas for the provision of services in the sports sector in the EU would contribute to the free movement of persons (students, sportsmen and women, workers and employers) as well as to the longterm assimilation of athletes on the employment market, and that it would also contribute to social cohesion in Europe and to achieving the Lisbon Strategy targets, as this is an area with a high potential for job creation;

    26.

    Calls on the Commission to initiate and support multi-disciplinary research in the field of sport and physical education, and to disseminate best practices; recommends that it devise basic principles for the pan- European survey on physical education policies and practices which the Council of Europe has defined as a priority;

    27.

    Stresses that the use of performance-enhancing chemical substances is contrary to the values of sport as a social, cultural and educational activity; also calls on the Member States to ensure that physical education teachers, both in schools and outside, inform pupils about the physical and psychological dangers inherent to the use of doping substances;

    28.

    Calls on the Member States to carry out a study of the quantitative and qualitative participation of girls and boys in sport within and outside schools and to provide the necessary resources to further expand the range of sports on offer and thereby increase the participation of girls in sports; reiterates the need to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of such public spending by means of gender budgeting and gender impact assessment;

    29.

    Urges the Member States, when developing policies in the field of sport and physical education, to mainstream gender by taking systematic account of the differences between the conditions, situations and needs of women and men in these policies; calls on Eurostat to further develop indicators and obtain improved quality statistics on male and female participation in sport at all levels;

    30.

    Calls on the Commission, the Council and the Member States, while taking full account of the subsidiarity principle, to draw up appropriate instruments which may promote further investment and equipment in sporting activities performed by young people;

    31.

    Welcomes the inclusion of a direct and unambiguous reference to the social, cultural and economic value of sport, which forms the basis of the legal framework for future Community action, in the text of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, as set out in the draft Treaty of Lisbon;

    32.

    Proposes that the EU Public Health Programme pay more attention to raising awareness of the prominent role played by education, physical education and sport in the area of public health;

    33.

    Recognises that health reasons are not sufficient to encourage regular sporting activities; urges the Member States, therefore, to redouble their efforts to promote sports linked to leisure and social activities;

    34.

    Calls on the Commission to devise clear guidelines on rules for state support, setting out what type of state support is regarded as acceptable and necessary in the interest of successfully fulfilling the social, cultural, health protection and educational functions of sport, including financial or other support awarded by the state authorities for the creation or modernisation of school sports facilities, and for improving and diversifying existing equipment and facilities, because sports equipment in many schools is inadequate or worn out in all respects;

    35.

    Calls on the Commission to identify areas in which EU action can provide added value with regard to action already taken by sports organisations and Member State authorities; considers that the open method of coordination is an appropriate way to achieve better cooperation at European level in the specific area of physical education policy and sport for all;

    36.

    Calls on the Commission to take into account and formulate a policy towards stakeholders, decision makers and citizens, in order to facilitate consultation with regard to European action on the role of sport in education;

    37.

    Recommends that EU structural funds be used for the creation and development of school and other sports facilities in disadvantaged areas;

    38.

    Calls on the Commission to ensure that legislation applies to the provision of services in the sports sector in the same way as to other activities in the framework of all Community policies;

    39.

    Calls on the Member States to ensure equality of opportunity by taking steps to put an end to any discrimination which might arise on the grounds of gender, religion or ethnic origin, to promote a more cooperative approach based on information, greater understanding, and wider public exposure, encompassing diversity and intermixing methods, and also to guarantee access for children with disabilities, at least to a basic level of physical education and, where possible to wider opportunities;

    40.

    Since sport represents a means of socialization, communication, social integration and, at the same time, teaches team spirit, fairness and respect for rules, invites all Member States to intensify sports programmes and physical education for young people from rehabilitation centres for minors;

    41.

    Urges the Member States to promote cooperation, and improve the exchange of information and examples of best practice, between schools and out-of-school sports associations, local authorities and voluntary and civil society organisations which run sporting activities;

    42.

    Urges the Member States to actively support forms of physical activity which can be performed by families, and to improve the dialogue between parents, physical education teachers and out-of-school sports associations;

    43.

    Emphasises the need to make European society more aware of the modern role and educational importance of sport, by encouraging educational and sports organisations to establish and develop close partnerships and joint objectives and by promoting solidarity between the professional and amateur sectors, and to sensitise the educational community to the need to address the problems of a sedentary lifestyle by promoting sports at school;

    44.

    Stresses the importance of the educational role and social responsibility of sports associations and clubs, as is acknowledged in the Nice Declaration;

    45.

    Recognises the vital social and cultural role that sport clubs and associations are able to play in their local and national communities; considers that schools, training centres, sport clubs and associations should be more involved in various forms of engagement and participation of the local population through a better social dialogue, preferably initiated by local authorities (health, social affairs and education departments); calls for attention to be focused in order to ensure that sports clubs function without fanaticisms, thus upholding sporting and social ideals;

    46.

    Emphasises the role of sports organisations and initiatives, such as the Special Olympics, that contribute to the integration of people with disabilities in sport as well as in society; strongly encourages Member State and EU support in order to continue and expand the work of those organisations and initiatives;

    47.

    Applauds the work of volunteers in all sporting organisations and recognises that most of these organisations could not exist without volunteers; therefore recommends that ‘credits’ or some form of reward for voluntary service be put in place at European level in order to promote and give greater recognition to this work;

    48.

    Calls on the Commission to draw on the experiences of the ‘sports-minded schools’ programme initiated by the Luxembourg Presidency and to devise, in cooperation with the Member States, a uniform set of criteria for the award of this label, as well as the conditions for a European sports prize to be awarded in acknowledgment of new initiatives;

    49.

    Calls on the Commission, building on the experiences gained from the EYES 2004 programme, and within the framework of the Lifelong Learning, Youth and Europe for Citizens programmes, to devise new initiatives aimed at heightening the profile, and increasing awareness in society, of the role played by sport and physical education not only in education and culture but also in terms of social integration and health protection, in particular through the prevention of obesity and stress at school; calls in particular for sports initiatives to be developed as part of the Lifelong Learning Programme;

    50.

    Calls on the Commission to promote the European mobility of physical education teachers and trainers, as part of the Lifelong Learning Programme, thereby enabling them to learn about best practices and gain experience from exchanges;

    51.

    Calls on the Member States to ensure that sports facilities are designed in such a way that access to them is facilitated for disabled spectators and/or participants;

    52.

    Calls on the Member States to ensure that the diversity of sports offered encourages children to adopt an open-minded attitude to the world and develop values such as self-respect, respect for others, solidarity, self-awareness and tolerance;

    53.

    Recognises that sport plays an important role in lifelong learning, and that students of all ages should be enabled to participate;

    54.

    Calls on the Member States to pay particular attention to situations in which children's talent is exploited with a view to success in sports competitions and stresses that professional sports activities involving children must respect their fundamental rights and best interests;

    55.

    Recognises the importance of the full participation of girls and women in sporting activities at all levels; considers gender equality and non-discrimination to be objectives that form an integral part of sport's educational and social functions; stresses the need to ensure equal access and participation for women and men as well as boys and girls at all levels and in all functions and areas of sport, irrespective of their social background, particularly for people with disabilities given that disabled women can face multiple discrimination; furthermore stresses the important role of sport for public health, especially in the fight against obesity that currently affects 21 million children in the EU;

    56.

    Urges the Commission and the Member States to pay particular attention to the physical and mental health of adolescent girls participating in top-level competitions, and to assess with the utmost care the effects certain demands may have on the sexual and reproductive health of adolescent girls and on their physical and mental development, with the aim of preventing any effects that run counter to the important educational role of sport;

    57.

    Urges the Commission to identify best practices in the fight against sexual harassment and abuse in sport; urges the Member States to adopt prevention and elimination measures and develop awareness-raising campaigns on the available legal redress, taking into account the innumerable resolutions on this subject, particularly the Council of Europe resolution of March 2000 on the prevention of sexual harassment and abuse of women, young people and children in sport (Bratislava resolution) and its abovementioned resolution of 5 June 2003;

    58.

    Calls on the Member States to guarantee equal opportunities and equal treatment for men and women as regards access to training and the pursuit of a career in sport;

    59.

    Calls on the Member States and competent authorities to take steps to raise awareness among everyone working in the sports sector (clubs, federations, etc.) of the importance of gender mainstreaming in all their decisions and in all actions launched by them, and of the need to include equality between men and women among their objectives when planning activities;

    60.

    Stresses the importance of physical exercise in curbing obesity and overcoming unhealthy life-style habits, thereby greatly benefiting the health of each individual; expresses concern, however, that longer working hours and present-day conditions of employment in general are preventing workers from taking regular physical exercise and becoming more involved in sport;

    61.

    Recognises that sport is an employment-creating sector and that other areas, such as education, medicine, the media and the manufacture and marketing of specialised equipment and products, are directly linked to this sector;

    62.

    Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council and the Commission, the governments and the parliaments of the Member States, the Council of Europe and the International Olympic Committee.

    Thematic Strategy for Soil Protection

    European Parliament resolution of 13 November 2007 on the Thematic Strategy for Soil Protection (2006/2293(INI))

    The European Parliament,

    having regard to the Commission communication ‘Thematic Strategy for Soil Protection’ (COM(2006)0231) and the Impact Assessment of the Thematic Strategy for Soil Protection (SEC(2006)0620),

    having regard to the Sixth Community Environment Action Programme (EAP) (1),

    having regard to the Convention on Biological Diversity, the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Kyoto Protocol as regards their direct and indirect links with the soil functions and the protection of the soil,

    having regard to its resolution of 19 November 2003 on the Commission Communication ‘Towards a Thematic Strategy for Soil Protection’ (2),

    having regard to Rule 45 of its Rules of Procedure,

    having regard to the report of the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety and the opinion of the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development (A6-0411/2007),

    A.

    whereas soil is a key component of the geographical environment, is the interface between the earth (lithosphere), the air (atmosphere) and the water (hydrosphere) and is the basis for essential functions for life on earth; whereas several Community policies aim at protecting these functions and the impact assessment by the Commission demonstrates that, despite these policies, soil destruction, erosion and degradation are increasing, while efforts designed to restore the fertility and productive functions of soil are not achieving the desired effects, resulting in a growing impact on other environmental areas, as well as on human and animal health,

    B.

    whereas overall protection of the soil and its environmental, economic, social, ecological and cultural functions is a precondition for addressing the main international environmental challenges, such as the mitigation of and the adaptation to climate change, the safeguarding of sufficient and clean water, combating falling groundwater levels, preventing natural and man-made disasters, the protection of biodiversity and the fight against desertification, steppe formation and deforestation, as well as actions designed to prevent soil pollution and halt processes leading to wholesale soil degradation or destruction,

    C.

    whereas soil structure and characteristics are the product of soil formation, geomorphological and geological processes occurring over thousands of years, thus making it a non-renewable resource; whereas, therefore, it is far more cost-effective to prevent any kind of damage to soil strata (erosion, destruction, degradation, salinisation, etc.) and soil contamination than to try to restore soil functions,

    D.

    whereas voluntary national initiatives and existing national measures are important for achieving the objective of greater soil protection,

    1.

    Welcomes the Commission's thematic strategy for soil protection, following on from its 2002 communication on the subject (COM(2002)0179) which clearly demonstrates the need for effective and productive soil protection measures in EU Member States, and the proposal to adopt a framework directive on soil protection;

    2.

    Notes that soil degradation has local and regional causes and impact, and that occasional transboundary effects are caused by regional geomorphological factors and consequently require intergovernmental measures;

    3.

    Points out that human activity affects soil functions and use in various ways and that a Community strategy must therefore help to protect those pieces of farmable land that are under greatest threat, for example in connection with land use changes, contaminated industrial sites, soil sealing and erosion;

    4.

    Is concerned at the consequences of soil degradation, whether natural or the result of human activity; stresses the need for a European strategy to identify and remedy the problems linked to the degradation of soils;

    5.

    Firmly believes that the huge diversity in terms of types of soil (320, with numerous sub-types) necessitates, in addition to national bottom-up approaches, a European strategy based on prevention, public awareness, information and the identification of risk areas to deal with this problem at European level; calls on Member States without soil protection legislation to shoulder their responsibilities for soil protection, taking also into account the responsibilities of owners; considers, in particular, that regional and local authorities should play a major part in formulating objectives and plans for soil protection;

    6.

    Considers that the thematic strategy needs to be strengthened in all Member States, and that much more dynamic progress will be made in implementing the strategy if it is complemented by financial aid measures financed from available budget appropriations for cohesion regions;

    7.

    Notes that soil is a shared resource; stresses that, unlike water, air and biodiversity, that do have specific Community legislation, soil, which is a crucial factor in the long-term, sustainable production of food, feed, fibres, and, increasingly, of biomass, has no such legislation;

    8.

    Stresses that, in accordance with the principles of better lawmaking, an EU framework directive is fully justified given that the evaluation of existing EU legislation, which should first be supplemented, and of voluntary options based on the transfer of know-how still reveals gaps in soil protection;

    9.

    Calls for new European rules to be considered, if still deemed necessary, only on the basis of such measures, and in that case to lay down binding standards for improvements;

    10.

    Agrees with the Commission that there is a need for a framework directive on soil protection, because of the important role of the soil in addressing international challenges such as the decline of soil productivity, ecosystem services and biodiversity, caused by deforestation, deteriorating water quality, steppe formation, continued soil erosion, recurring floods and landslides, and in ensuring sufficient and safe food production;

    11.

    Believes that a framework directive is an adequate measure for soil protection, having due regard for the subsidiarity principle (Article 5, second paragraph, of the EC Treaty), and subject to proportionality (Article 5, third paragraph, of the EC Treaty), and could enable Member States that have not yet done so to develop soil policies without creating distortion of competition; believes that the framework directive should recognise the already existing national and Community legislation and should not add any unnecessary administrative burden on Member States, regional and local authorities, and land owners;

    12.

    Points out that the high degree of soil diversity, the regionally differentiated problem areas and the existing national soil protection blueprints must be taken into account by ensuring that Member States retain a considerable degree of flexibility when designing the legislative framework; states emphatically that soil is a policy area which, by virtue of its great diversity, requires tailor-made solutions that need to be developed at local and regional levels;

    13.

    Concludes that a clear demarcation is needed between this directive and other European legislative standards relating to soil protection in order to avoid regulatory duplication;

    Synergy with other Community policies

    14.

    Proposes that an in-depth evaluation and analysis be carried out of directives already introduced in the European Union, such as the Groundwater Directive and the Nitrates Directive, and that the extent to which Member States are meeting the cross-compliance conditions applicable to farmers be evaluated and analysed; considers that, on the basis of this analysis, binding measures may, if necessary, be drawn up to promote soil quality; notes that it will also be possible, on the basis of this analysis, to carry out an exchange of information within the EU in order to promote soil quality;

    15.

    Calls on the Commission to examine the implementation in Member States of relevant soil protection provisions in other Community legislation on air, water, waste, climate change, biodiversity, desertification, agriculture, energy, products, industry, transport and regional development, and to report to the European Parliament before the end of 2008 on how such legislation can be better used for increased soil protection;

    16.

    Endorses the Commission's view that soil conditions need to be improved in many European regions, but believes that the Commission should make greater efforts to ensure consistency with current legislation;

    17.

    Stresses the need to avoid overlapping, contradictions and inconsistencies in relation to existing EU rules;

    18.

    Supports the Commission in its actions and its time schedule to review the Sewage Sludge and the Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control Directives and to assess possible synergies between soil protection measures and measures under inter alia the Water Framework Directive; further calls on the Commission to assess possible synergies with the Waste Directive;

    19.

    Calls again on the Commission to develop as soon as possible a directive on the sound management of biowaste with the objective of reducing the amount of biowaste that is landfilled or incinerated and of promoting instead the production of compost and biogas; points out that compost and treated residues from the production of biogas which are of suitable quality can greatly support the preservation and increase of soil organic matter;

    Climate change

    20.

    Recognises that a change in soil use can result in an increase in carbon sequestration or in an increase in greenhouse gas emissions, for example in the case of deforestation, or when peatlands are drained as a result of inappropriate phyto-irrigation or aquatic irrigation, or permanent grasslands ploughed up or through inappropriate ploughing of slopes; recognises that not only does soil use have a strong impact on climate change, but that climate change itself can result in severe soil degradation or erosion;

    21.

    Recognises that climate change, through changes in temperature and rainfall, may have large impacts on the biogeochemical cycles in soils that affect soil fertility; recognises also that especially changes in soil nutrient and water balances and their effect on food production, nutrient and contaminant transport and soil water availability need further attention in a changing climate;

    22.

    Calls on the Commission to consider measures, including a common minimum levy, for example, on carbon loss; such levies must be collected at national level and the proceeds must be used to resolve the pollution problem that provides the basis for the levy, for example, to develop systems involving more carbon sequestration;

    23.

    Urges the Council and the Commission to take into account the important role of soil policies in both the mitigation of climate change and adaptation to the impacts of climate change in their negotiations on a post-2012 regime under the UNFCCC;

    24.

    Calls on the Commission to promote further research on the soil's role in increasing water retention and combating falling groundwater levels, in mitigation of and adaptation to climate change and to identify possible best practices on measures that increase carbon sequestration in the soil, and to report to the European Parliament before the end of 2009, when an ongoing Commission study will have delivered some results;

    Agriculture

    25.

    Notes that productive agricultural land is an increasingly scarce global resource and that this calls for sustainable agricultural practices that preserve valuable soil qualities;

    26.

    Recognises that unsustainable agricultural practices may have profound adverse effects on soils and downstream waters through failure to protect sensitive biogeochemical balances and soil biodiversity;

    27.

    Points out that agriculture and forestry play a crucial role in maintaining soil quality and revitalising soil, and that there is considerable self-interest on the part of those engaged in farming and forestry in maintaining their land in good condition as a basis of production; draws attention to the need to avoid the permanent sealing of soils of high ecological or productive value, and prevent them from being covered with artificial surfaces as a result of urban development and other infrastructure, especially those located in zones such as river plains, fertile farmland and coastal zones; calls for all public authorities from local to Community level to pay particular attention to the latter, which are under strong pressure from human activity;

    28.

    Calls on the Commission to establish priorities as to how Europe's land area is to be used so that the soil is protected in the best way possible and a basis is created for high levels of biodiversity and carbon sequestration; in addition to sequestration in the soil, it should be ensured that woods, shelter belts and, not least, agro-forestry are included;

    29.

    Reiterates its call on the Commission to establish a catalogue of agricultural practices and their different effects on soil, so that best agro-technical practices can be promoted in line with the characteristics of farming and its benefits for the soil and the wider environment;

    30.

    Calls on the Commission to promote show-cases of sustainable agricultural practices geared towards soil conservation;

    Biodiversity

    31.

    Considers it crucial to apply the precautionary principle and to make sure that the Sixth EAP and EU environmental legislation such as the Habitats, Birds and Water Framework Directives are fully respected; further believes that Community policies should be revised, where necessary, so as to better prevent decline in biodiversity;

    Research

    32.

    Calls on the Commission to promote further research on the soil's role in protecting biodiversity and soil biodiversity, in the fields of processes underlying soil functions, spatial and temporal changes in soil processes, ecological, economic and social drivers of soil threats, factors influencing soil eco-services and operational procedures and technologies for soil protection and restoration. There are first steps in this direction in the Seventh Framework Programme for research (2007-2013) (3), which covers research into soil functions as part of its ‘Environment’ and ‘Food, Agriculture and Biotechnology’ priority areas;

    Desertification and steppe formation

    33.

    Considers that the worsening desertification and steppe formation process affecting various regions in the Union is a result of significant anthropressure, caused by deforestation of vast areas and excessive desiccation of grasslands, and that its socio-economic repercussions and impact on the natural environment have not been adequately reflected or met with sufficient awareness in certain Community bodies; recognises the need for greater research and awareness throughout the Community;

    34.

    Points out, in this connection, that 14 Member States are affected by desertification, and that the remaining 13, even if they are not actually affected, are subject to regional or local environmental pressures such as erosion or salinisation;

    35.

    Considers that the framework directive will greatly enhance the implementation of the UN Convention to Combat Desertification and will strengthen the efforts to prevent and mitigate desertification and steppe formation in the affected countries of the European Union; believes that the knowledge and expertise gathered in the context of the Soil Thematic Strategy should be transferred and shared with Third World countries suffering from desertification;

    36.

    Urges the Commission to submit a communication on desertification and steppe formation, firstly in the EU and then worldwide, containing a precise description of the regions affected or likely to be affected by the desertification process and steppe formation, together with a detailed analysis of the causes and socio-economic effects on the regions, and identifying appropriate Community actions to help limit the negative effects of these processes;

    Contamination

    37.

    Considers that prevention of soil contamination is very important to preserve the proper physical and chemical properties of soil as well as soil quality and to ensure the protection of other elements of the natural environment, and therefore calls on the Commission to ensure that existing and future Community legislation adheres to this objective;

    38.

    Believes that a systemic approach for the identification of contaminated sites, based on monitoring objective parameters and a common list of activities, is needed to gather the necessary information and establish databases in order to manage the legacy of soil contamination, thus giving a signal to economic operators so that they take effective preventive measures to avoid future contamination;

    39.

    Stresses that the procedure for identifying contaminated land must be linked to the requirement of suspected risk in order to achieve an appropriate and proportionate solution to the problem (risk-based approach);

    40.

    Emphasises that, alongside the various remediation procedures such as decontamination and stabilisation, further options should also be included such as appropriate protection and limitation measures or the resort to natural processes of pollutant reduction;

    41.

    Supports the Commission in its approach to increase public knowledge of contaminated sites or sites which may be threatened with contamination and the transparency of land transactions based on local land development plans, in particular through the establishment of the soil status report and especially for places where activities with potential to cause soil contamination have been or are being carried out;

    42.

    Welcomes the establishment of a Europe-wide platform for the exchange of information between Member States since it promotes the transfer of know-how and may open the way to synergies; urges that, for the voluntary establishment of a platform of this kind as part of an EU soil protection strategy, a pragmatic approach should be aimed for on cost grounds alone, having regard to the systems existing in Member States;

    43.

    Stresses that the reporting and documentation requirements laid down in the framework directive must be confined to what is strictly necessary so as not to impose an excessive burden on towns, municipalities and regions; in particular, Member States need to be able to use their own reporting systems;

    Monitoring, impacts of natural disasters, training and education

    44.

    Calls on the Commission to ensure that soil protection and its links with climate change, biodiversity, deforestation, land drainage, desertification, steppe formation, falling groundwater levels, acidification, erosion and increased risks as a result of natural and man-made disasters will be dealt with under the Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) and Inspire as a matter of priority;

    45.

    Calls on the Commission to promote further research on the increased risks of floods and landslides resulting from sealing and soil subsidence, and the increased impacts of floods, landslides and seismic activity due to increasing population density and activities in coastal areas, river basins and areas surrounding volcanoes and areas with large-scale CO2 and SO2 emitters, and to identify best practices to address these increased risks;

    46.

    Calls on the Commission to provide the initiative for, and to develop schemes to encourage, the transfer of know-how relating to best practice under national soil protection legislation;

    47.

    Calls on the Commission to identify more structural ways to improve training and education within the European Union on soil classification, sampling, monitoring and possible best practices on soil protection, exchange of information and best practice, increasing knowledge of the importance and need for soil protection and also promoting best agrotechnical practices in agriculture aimed at restoring the productive function of soil;

    Amendment of Directive 2003/87/EC so as to include aviation activities in the scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community ***I

    European Parliament legislative resolution of 13 November 2007 on the proposal for a directive of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Directive 2003/87/EC so as to include aviation activities in the scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community (COM(2006)0818 — C6-0011/2007 — 2006/0304(COD))

    (Codecision procedure: first reading)

    The European Parliament,

    having regard to the Commission proposal to the European Parliament and the Council (COM(2006)0818),

    having regard to Article 251(2) and Article 175(1) of the EC Treaty, pursuant to which the Commission submitted the proposal to Parliament (C6-0011/2007),

    having regard to Rule 51 of its Rules of Procedure,

    having regard to the report of the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety and the opinions of the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs, the Committee on Industry, Research and Energy and the Committee on Transport and Tourism (A6-0402/2007),

    1.

    Approves the Commission proposal as amended;

    2.

    Calls on the Commission to refer the matter to Parliament again if it intends to amend the proposal substantially or replace it with another text;

    3.

    Instructs its President to forward its position to the Council and Commission.

    P6_TC1-COD(2006)0304

    Position of the European Parliament adopted at first reading on 13 November 2007 with a view to the adoption of Directive 2008/.../EC of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Directive 2003/87/EC so as to include aviation activities in the scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community

    (Text with EEA relevance)

    THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

    Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 175(1) thereof,

    Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ║,

    Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (1),

    Having regard to the opinion of the Committee of the Regions (2),

    Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (3),

    Whereas:

    (1)

    Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 October 2003 establishing a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community ║ (4) established a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community in order to promote reductions of greenhouse gas emissions in a cost-effective and economically efficient manner.

    (2)

    The ultimate objective of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, which was approved on behalf of the European Community by Council Decision 94/69/EC of 15 December 1993 concerning the conclusion of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (5), is to stabilise greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system. The Community has repeatedly stated that, with a view to meeting this objective, the overall global annual mean surface temperature increase should not exceed 2 °C above pre-industrial levels. Recent scientific research and work indicate that keeping this long-term temperature objective within reach will require global greenhouse gas emissions to peak within two decades followed by substantial reductions in the order of at least 15 %, and perhaps by as much as 50 %, compared with 1990 levels. The levels of quantified reductions for States to make from 2013 to achieve the objective of stabilising greenhouse gas concentrations have not yet been fixed in the international climate change process. Whilst this Directive should be consistent with the EU's contribution to the long-term temperature objective, the methods and basis for allocation of allowances to aircraft operators under this Directive beyond that date should be kept under review in the light of scientific developments and the political developments at the international level.

    (3)

    The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change requires all parties to formulate and implement national and, where appropriate, regional programmes containing measures to mitigate climate change.

    (4)

    The Kyoto Protocol, which was approved by Council Decision 2002/358/EC of 25 April 2002 concerning the approval, on behalf of the European Community, of the Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the joint fulfilment of commitments thereunder (6), requires developed countries to pursue the limitation or reduction of emissions of greenhouse gases not controlled by the Montreal Protocol from aviation, working through the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO).

    (5)

    While the Community is not a contracting Party to the 1944 Chicago Convention, all Member States are contracting Parties to that Convention and members of ICAO, and continue to support work on the development of market-based instruments working with other states at global level. At the sixth meeting of the ICAO Committee on Aviation Environmental Protection in 2004, it was agreed that an aviation-specific emissions trading system based on a new legal instrument under ICAO auspices seemed sufficiently unattractive that it should not be pursued further. Consequently, Resolution 35-5 of the ICAO Assembly does not propose a new legal instrument but instead endorses ‘ the further development of an open emissions trading system for international aviation ’ and the possibility for States to incorporate emissions from international aviation into their emissions trading schemes.

    (6)

    The Sixth Community Environment Action Programme established by Decision No 1600/2002/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (7) provided for the Community to identify and undertake specific actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from aviation, if no such action was agreed within the ICAO by 2002. In its conclusions of October 2002, December 2003 and October 2004, the Council has repeatedly called upon the Commission to propose action to reduce the climate change impact of international air transport.

    (7)

    Policies and measures should be implemented at Member State and Community level across all sectors of the Community economy, and not only within the industry and energy sectors, in order to generate the substantial reductions needed. If the climate change impact of the aviation sector continues to grow at the current rate, it would significantly undermine reductions made by other sectors to combat climate change.

    (8)

    To assist with the reduction of emissions from aircraft, the Commission should carry out a feasibility study by 2009 into the possibility of laying down emissions standards for aircraft engines.

    (9)

    In its Communication of 27 September 2005 (8) the Commission adopted a strategy for reducing the climate impact of aviation. As part of a comprehensive package of measures, the strategy proposed the inclusion of aviation in the Community scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading and provided for the creation of a multi-stakeholder working group on aviation as part of the second phase of the European Climate Change Programme to consider ways of including aviation in the Community scheme. In its conclusions of December 2005 the Council recognised that, from an economic and environmental point of view, the inclusion of the aviation sector in the Community scheme seems to be the best way forward and called on the Commission to bring forward a legislative proposal by the end of 2006. In its Resolution of 4 July 2006 (9) the European Parliament recognised that emissions trading has the potential to play a role as part of a comprehensive package of measures to address the climate impact of aviation, provided that it is appropriately designed.

    (10)

    Apart from the economic tools there is considerable emission lowering potential in technological and operational improvements which should be enhanced now more than in the past.

    (11)

    More efficient air traffic management could, by itself, cut fuel consumption by up to 12% and thereby contribute to the lowering of CO2 emissions. Consequently, the Single European Sky and the SESAR projects should be implemented as quickly and as efficiently as possible. It is, in particular, the task of the Member States and the Community, in close consultation with the airspace users concerned, to take swift and firm action to establish functional airspace blocks, flexible airspace blocks and flexible airspace use. In this respect, support should be given to the AIRE initiative (Atlantic Interoperability Initiative to Reduce Emissions) agreed between the EU and the US Federal Aviation Administration.

    (12)

    Research and technology is the key to innovation and to achieving further cuts in aviation emissions. Aircraft and engine manufacturers, and fuel producers, are urged to research and implement changes in their respective fields which will significantly contribute to reducing the climate impact of aviation. The Community should continue its support for the ‘Clean Sky’ Joint Technology Initiative (JTI) in the 7th Framework Programme for Research (FP7) which aims to radically reduce the impact of air transport on the environment. The Community should continue to give strong support to the work of ACARE (Advisory Council for Aeronautical Research in Europe), and more particularly its Strategic Research Agenda (SRA), which sets emissions reduction targets for the air transport industry of 50% for carbon dioxide per passenger kilometre and 80% for nitrogen oxide by 2020.

    (13)

    Subsidies to airports give in some cases wrong incentives concerning the emission of greenhouse gases. Therefore the Commission must fully respect existing competition law.

    (14)

    The objective of this Directive is to reduce aviation's contribution to global climate change ▐ by including emissions from aviation activities in the Community scheme.

    (15)

    Aircraft operators have the most direct control over the type of aircraft in operation and the way in which they are flown and should therefore be responsible for complying with the obligations imposed by this Directive. An operator may be identified by the use of an ICAO designator or any other recognised designator used in the identification of the flight. If the identity of the operator is not known, the owner of the aircraft should be regarded as the aircraft operator unless it proves which other person was the operator.

    (16)

    A level playing field between airports and between aircraft operators needs to be ensured. Therefore, international flights to and from the European Union and flights within the European Union should both be included in the Community scheme from the start.

    (17)

    From 2011, ▐ emissions from all flights arriving at and departing from Community airports should be included. ▐ If a third country adopts measures for reducing the climate impact of flights to a Community airport departing from that country which are at least equivalent to the requirements of this Directive, the scope of the Community scheme should be amended to exclude the flights ▐ from that country . Climate change is a global phenomenon which requires global solutions. The Community considers this Directive as an important first step. Non-EU parties are invited to contribute with their ideas to the debate so as to develop this policy instrument further. To make the voice of third parties heard, the Commission should be in permanent contact with them, both prior to and during the implementation of this Directive. If the European Union agrees with a third party on a common scheme which has at least the same positive effects for the environment as the Directive, the Commission may propose an amendment of the Directive. In any case the Commission may propose that incoming flights from third countries not be covered by the scheme if the third country has in place a system which has at least the same environmental benefit as this Directive.

    (18)

    Aviation has an impact on the global climate through releases of carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, water vapour and sulphate and soot particles. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has estimated that the total impact of aviation currently is two to four times higher than the effect of its past carbon dioxide emissions alone. Recent Community research indicates that the total impact of aviation could be around two times higher than the impact of carbon dioxide alone. However, none of these estimates takes into account the highly uncertain cirrus cloud effects. In accordance with Article 174(2) of the Treaty, Community environment policy must be based on the precautionary principle and therefore all impacts of aviation should be addressed to the extent possible. Air traffic management authorities should apply effective measures in order to avoid the formation of contrails and cirrus clouds through changes in flight patterns, namely by ensuring that flights will avoid passing through areas where due to specific atmospheric conditions the formation of such clouds is foreseen. In addition, they should strongly promote research on the formation of contrails and cirrus clouds including effective mitigation measures (e.g. fuel, engines, air traffic management) that do not adversely affect other environmental goals. Pending other legislation to be proposed by the Commission focusing specifically on the problem of nitrogen oxide emissions in aviation, a multiplier should be applied to every tonne of CO2 emitted.

    (19)

    Other actions are needed in order to supplement this Directive. Study groups should therefore be set up to examine other means of action.

    (20)

    In order to avoid distortions of competition, a harmonised allocation methodology should be specified. To ensure access to the market for new aircraft operators, a proportion of allowances will be allocated by auction in accordance with rules to be developed by the Commission. Aircraft operators that cease operations should continue to be issued with allowances until the end of the period for which free allowances have already been allocated.

    (21)

    Despite the fact that it is difficult for aircraft operators to switch to alternative (renewable) energy sources, the aviation sector must still achieve a considerable emissions reduction that is in line with the overall EU reduction target of 20% to 30% compared to 1990 levels. For each commitment period under the Community's scheme in which aviation is to be included, depending on the reference period used for aviation in that commitment period, the target for aviation should be set on the basis of the average efforts required of all the other fixed-source sectors in all the Member States.

    (22)

    Aviation contributes to the overall climate change impact of human activities. Proceeds from the auctioning of allowances should be used to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and to adapt to the impacts of climate change in the EU and third countries, especially in developing countries , and to fund research and development for mitigation and adaptation. In order to reduce to some extent the burden on citizens, revenues generated by auctioning should also be used to lower taxes and charges on environment-friendly transport such as rail and bus. They should also be used to cover the Member States' justified costs in administering this Directive. Member States may also use the revenues to mitigate or even eliminate any accessibility and competitiveness problems arising for outermost regions and problems for public service obligations in connection with the implementation of this Directive. Member States should inform the Commission of measures taken in this connection.

    (23)

    To increase the cost-effectiveness of the scheme, aircraft operators should be able to use allowances issued to installations in other emission trading scheme sectors, Certified Emission Reductions (CERs) and Emission Reduction Units (ERUs) from project activities to meet obligations to surrender allowances ▐.

    (24)

    As a result of the current emission trading scheme, energy-intensive industry is already under pressure from significantly high CO2 prices. There is the real threat of carbon leakage if another significant sector is included in the scheme that has to buy emission permits. To avoid carbon leakage from energy-intensive industry, for example the cement, lime or steel sector, the Commission will examine different options such as sectoral targets or border tax adjustment and publish a report before the end of 2008 on how the question should be addressed.

    (25)

    In order to reduce the administrative burden on aircraft operators, one Member State should be responsible for each aircraft operator. Member States should be required to ensure that aircraft operators which were issued with an operating licence in that State, or aircraft operators without an operating licence or from third countries whose emissions in a base year are mostly attributable to that Member State, comply with the requirements of this Directive.

    (26)

    To maintain the integrity of the accounting system for the Community scheme in view of the fact that emissions from international aviation are not yet integrated into Member States' commitments under the Kyoto Protocol, allowances allocated to the aviation sector should only be used to meet the obligations placed on aircraft operators to surrender allowances under this Directive. However, aircraft operators should be able to exchange an allowance issued to the aviation sector for an allowance which can be used by all operators in the scheme through their registry administrator.

    (27)

    In order to ensure equal treatment of aircraft operators, Member States should follow harmonised rules for the administration of aircraft operators under their responsibility, in accordance with specific guidelines to be developed by the Commission.

    (28)

    The European Organisation for the Safety of Air Navigation (Eurocontrol), may possess information which could assist Member States or the Commission in discharging their obligations under this Directive.

    (29)

    The provisions of the Community scheme relating to monitoring, reporting and verifying emissions and to penalties applicable to operators should also apply to aircraft operators.

    (30)

    This Directive should not prevent any Member State from maintaining or establishing other complementary and parallel policies or measures that address the aviation sector's total impacts on climate change.

    (31)

    The measures necessary for the implementation of this Directive should be adopted in accordance with Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission (10).

    (32)

    In particular ║ the Commission should be empowered to adopt measures for the auctioning of allowances not required to be issued for free and to amend the aviation activities listed in Annex I where a third country introduces measures to reduce the climate change impact of aviation. Since those measures are of general scope and are designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive and to supplement this Directive by the addition or modification of new non-essential elements, they must be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny provided for in Article 5a of Decision 1999/468/EC.

    (33)

    Since the objective of the proposed action cannot be achieved by the Member States acting individually, and can therefore, by reason of the scale and effects of the proposed action, be better achieved at Community level, the Community may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty. In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Directive does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve that objective.

    (34)

    Directive 2003/87/EC should therefore be amended accordingly,

    HAVE ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

    Article 1

    The following Chapter II and heading of Chapter III and Article 3e are inserted after Article 3:

    ‘Chapter II

    Aviation

    Article 3a

    Scope of Chapter II

    The provisions of this Chapter shall apply to the allocation and issue of allowances in respect of aviation activities listed in Annex I.

    Article 3b

    Total quantity of allowances for aviation

    1.   ▐ The total quantity of allowances to be allocated to aircraft operators shall be equivalent to 90% of the sum of the historical aviation emissions in relation to each year.

    2.    Depending on the choice for a post-2012 carbon dioxide reduction target of either 30% or 20% with 1990 as a base year, the Commission shall reduce the total quantity of allowances to be allocated to aircraft operators in the further periods under Article 11(2) in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23(2a). This downward review will provide a mechanism to ensure that the environmental effectiveness of the scheme is maintained. There shall be provision for subsequent downward reviews of the total quantity of allowances allocated.

    3.   Within six months of the entry into force of this Directive, the Commission shall decide on the historical aviation emissions based on best available data.

    Article 3c

    Method of allocation of allowances for aviation

    1.    Starting in 2011, 25% of allowances shall be auctioned. ▐

    2.   For future periods, the percentage to be auctioned referred to in paragraph 1 shall be increased, according to the maximum level of auctioning in other sectors.

    3.   The Commission shall adopt a Regulation containing detailed provisions for the auctioning by Member States of allowances not required to be issued free of charge in accordance with paragraphs 1 and 2. The number of allowances to be auctioned in each period by each Member State shall be proportionate to its share of the total attributed aviation emissions for all Member States for the reference year reported pursuant to Article 14(3) and verified pursuant to Article 15. For the period referred to in Article 11(2), the reference year shall be 2010 and for each subsequent period referred to in Article 11(2) the reference year shall be the calendar year ending 24 months before the start of the period to which the auction relates.

    That Regulation, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 23 (2a).

    4.     The Commission shall adopt a Regulation laying down detailed provisions for the setting up of a European allowance reserve. The percentage of allowances to be kept as a reserve for the benefit of potential new aircraft operators in each period shall be established by the Commission taking into account the market prediction studies issued by the appropriate bodies.

    5.   Revenues generated from the auctioning of allowances ▐ shall be used to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and to adapt to the impacts of climate change in the EU and third countries, especially in developing countries , and to fund research and development for mitigation, especially in the airline sector, and adaptation. In order to reduce to some extent the burden on citizens, revenues generated by auctioning shall also be used to lower taxes and charges on climate-friendly transport such as rail and bus. They may also be used to cover the Member States' justified costs in administering this Directive. Member States may also use the revenues to mitigate or even eliminate any accessibility and competitiveness problems arising for outermost regions and problems for public service obligations in connection with the implementation of this Directive. Member States shall inform the Commission of measures taken pursuant to this paragraph.

    6.   Information provided to the Commission on the basis of this Directive does not free Member States from the notification obligation pursuant to Article 88(3) of the Treaty.

    Article 3d

    Allocation and issue of allowances to aircraft operators

    1.   For each period referred to in Article 11(2), each aircraft operator may apply for an allocation of allowances that are to be allocated free of charge in accordance with Article 3c. An application may be made by submitting to the competent authority in the administering Member State verified tonnekilometre data for the aviation activities listed in Annex I performed by that operator for the calendar year ending 24 months before the start of the period to which it relates in accordance with Annexes IV and V. Any application must be made at least 21 months before the start of the period to which it relates.

    2.   At least 18 months before the start of the period to which the application relates Member States shall submit applications received under paragraph 1 to the Commission.

    3.   At least 15 months before the start of each period referred to in Article 11(2), the Commission shall decide on the following:

    (a)

    the total quantity of allowances to be allocated for that period in accordance with Article 3b;

    (b)

    the benchmark to be used to allocate allowances free of charge to aircraft operators whose applications were submitted to the Commission in accordance with paragraph 2.

    The benchmark referred to in point (b) shall be calculated by dividing the number of allowances allocated free of charge by the sum of the tonne-kilometre data included in applications submitted to the Commission in accordance with paragraph 2.

    4.   Within three months of the date on which the Commission adopts a decision under paragraph 3, each administering Member State shall calculate and publish:

    (a)

    the total allocation of allowances for the period to each aircraft operator whose application it submitted to the Commission in accordance with paragraph 2, calculated by multiplying the tonne-kilometre data included in the application by the benchmark published under point (b) of paragraph 3; and

    (b)

    the allocation of allowances to each aircraft operator for each year which shall be determined by dividing its total allocation of allowances for the period calculated under point (a) by the number of years in the period for which that aircraft operator is performing an aviation activity listed in Annex I.

    5.   By 28 February 2011 and by 28 February in each subsequent year, the competent authority of the administering Member State shall issue to each aircraft operator the number of allowances allocated to that aircraft operator for that year.

    6.     The Commission shall implement measures in respect of the allocation of allowances to make provision for new aviation entrants.

    ‘New aviation entrants’ means an aircraft operator which has been issued with an Air Operator's Certificate (AOC) for the first time subsequent to the start of a period referred to in Article 11(2) and has actually commenced operations in that period.

    7.     In the event of a merger or takeover involving several carriers during a given period, the allowances which have been allocated to them or which they have acquired shall be retained by the new entity. If a carrier ceases to operate, the Member State to which it is attached shall place the relevant allowances on the secondary market for allowances. At the beginning of the following year, the share of the allowances still available shall be allocated in full for auctioning, taking account of the general rate of reduction of authorised allowances.

    8.     On the basis of the experience acquired during the period 2010-2012, the Commission shall submit a proposal concerning the quota of emission permits the aviation sector is authorised to purchase on the secondary market for wider emission permit schemes.

    Chapter III

    The Commission shall publish this percentage at least six months before the start of each period referred to in Article 11(2) .

    The percentage of CERs and ERUs usable in relation to aviation activities shall be reviewed alongside their use in other sectors as part of the emission trading scheme review.

    (8)

    In Article 11b(2), the word ‘installations’ is replaced by ‘activities’.

    (9)

    Article 12 is amended as follows:

Member States shall ensure that allowances surrendered in accordance with this paragraph are subsequently cancelled.

    2b.     As long as there are no Community measures which incentivise the reduction of releases of nitrogen oxides from aircraft carrying out an aviation activity listed in Annex I, and which ensure the same ambitious level regarding the protection of the environment as this Directive, for the purposes of paragraph 2a and by way of derogation from Article 3(a), the amount of carbon dioxide which an allowance, other than an aviation emissions allowance, or a CER or ERU permits an aircraft operator to emit shall be divided by an impact factor of 2.

    2c.     Every year, aircraft operators wishing to surrender allowances for the purposes of paragraph 2a other than aviation emissions allowances, shall be required to submit to the administering Member State verified tonne-kilometre data for the aviation activities listed in Annex I performed in that calendar year.

    2d.     Based on the data to be submitted under the provisions of Article 3, the Commission shall determine an efficiency indicator for all aircraft operators, calculated by dividing the total emissions from aircraft operators by the sum of the tonne-kilometre data. Based on this efficiency indicator for the first year for which data is available, the Commission shall publish a target efficiency indicator for 2010, 2015 and 2020 on the basis of an emissions reduction per revenue-tonne-kilometre (RTK) of 3,5% per year, which takes into account the voluntary target of a 3,5% improvement in fuel efficiency of aircraft per year until 2020.

    2e.     Those aircraft operators which, for a given year, have an efficiency indicator with a value above the target efficiency indicator calculated by the Commission for that year, shall be required to surrender only aviation emissions allowances to comply with the provisions of paragraph 2a.

    2f.     The Commission shall, having regard to air operators' pledge to increase the efficiency of aircraft engines by 50% in 2020, report to the European Parliament in 2010 and 2015 on progress made towards achieving this target.

    2g.     As soon as sufficient scientific evidence is available an appropriate multiplier will be proposed to take into account the effects of cirrus clouds caused by aviation activity.

    Fuel consumption shall include fuel consumed by the auxiliary power unit. Actual fuel consumption for each flight shall be used wherever possible and shall be calculated using the formula:

    Amount of fuel contained in aircraft tanks once fuel uplift for the flight is complete - amount of fuel contained in aircraft tanks once fuel uplift for subsequent flight is complete + fuel uplift for that subsequent flight

    If actual fuel consumption data are not available, a standardised tiered method shall be used to estimate fuel consumption data based on best available information.

    Default IPCC emission factors, taken from the 2006 IPCC Inventory Guidelines or subsequent updates of these Guidelines, shall be used unless activity-specific emission factors derived by independent accredited laboratories using accepted analytical methods are more accurate. The emission factor for biomass shall be zero.

    A separate calculation shall be made for each flight and for each fuel.

    Reporting of emissions

    Each aircraft operator shall include the following information in its report under Article 14(3):

    A.

    Data identifying the operator, including:

    Name of the operator;

    Its administering Member State;

    Its address, including postcode and country and, where different, its contact address in the administering Member State;

    The aircraft registration numbers and types of aircraft used in the period covered by the report to perform the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator;

    The number and issuing authority of the air operator certificate and operating licence under which the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator were performed;

    Address, telephone, fax and email details for a contact person; and

    Name of the aircraft owner.

    B.

    For each type of fuel for which emissions are calculated:

    Fuel consumption;

    Emission factor;

    Total aggregated emissions from all flights performed during the period covered by the report which fall within the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator;

    Aggregated emissions from:

    all flights performed during the period covered by the report which fall within the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator and which departed from an airport situated in the territory of a Member State and arrived at an airport situated in the territory of the same Member State;

    all other flights performed during the period covered by the report which fall within the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator;

    Aggregated emissions from all flights performed during the period covered by the report which fall within the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator which:

    departed from each Member State; and

    arrived in each Member State from a third country;

    Uncertainty.

    Monitoring of tonne-kilometre data for the purpose of Article 3d

    For the purpose of applying for an allocation of allowances in accordance with Article 3d(1), the amount of aviation activity shall be calculated in tonne-kilometres using the following formula:

    tonne kilometres = distance x payload

    where:

    ‘distance’ means the great circle distance between the airport of departure and the airport of arrival; and

    ‘payload’ means the total mass of freight, mail and passengers carried.

    For the purposes of calculating the payload:

    the number of passengers shall be the number of persons onboard excluding crew members;

    an aircraft operator may chose to apply either the actual or standard mass for passengers and checked baggage contained in its mass and balance documentation for the relevant flights or a default value for each passenger and his checked baggage of 100 kg.

    Reporting of tonne-kilometre data for the purpose of Article 3d

    Each aircraft operator shall include the following information in its application under Article 3d(1):

    A.

    Data identifying the operator, including:

    Name of the operator;

    Its administering Member State;

    Its address, including postcode and country and, where different, its contact address in the administering Member State;

    The aircraft registration numbers and types of aircraft used during the year covered by the application to perform the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator;

    The number and issuing authority of the air operator certificate and operating licence under which the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the aircraft operator were performed;

    Address, telephone, fax and email details for a contact person; and

    Name of the aircraft owner.

    B.

    Tonne-kilometre data:

    Number of flights by airport pair;

    Number of passenger-kilometres by airport pair;

    Number of tonne-kilometres by airport pair;

    Total number of tonne-kilometres for all flights performed during the year to which the report relates falling within the aviation activities listed in Annex I for which it is the operator.’

    (3)

    Annex V is amended as follows:

    (a)

    the following heading is inserted after the title:

    (b)

    the following part B is added:

    ‘PART B —   Verification of emissions from aviation activities

    (13)

    The general principles and methodology set out in this Annex shall apply to the verification of reports of emissions from flights falling within an aviation activity listed in Annex I.

    For this purpose:

    (a)

    in paragraph 3, the reference to operator shall be read as if it were a reference to an aircraft operator and in point (c), the reference to installation shall be read as if it were a reference to the aircraft used to perform the aviation activities covered by the report;

    (b)

    in paragraph 5, the reference to installation shall be read as if it were a reference to the aircraft operator;

    (c)

    in paragraph 6 the reference to activities carried out in the installation shall be read as a reference to aviation activities covered by the report carried out by the aircraft operator;

    (d)

    in paragraph 7 the reference to the site of the installation shall be read as if it were a reference to the sites used by the aircraft operator to perform the aviation activities covered by the report;

    (e)

    in paragraphs 8 and 9 the references to sources of emissions in the installation shall be read as if they were a reference to the aircraft for which the aircraft operator is responsible; and

    (f)

    in paragraphs 10 and 12 the references to operator shall be read as if they were a reference to an aircraft operator.

    Additional provisions for the verification of aviation emission reports

    (14)

    The verifier shall in particular ascertain that:

    (a)

    all flights falling within an aviation activity listed in Annex I have been taken into account. In this task the verifier shall be assisted by timetable data and other data on the operator's traffic including data from Eurocontrol requested by the operator;

    (b)

    there is overall consistency between aggregated fuel consumption data and data on fuel purchased or otherwise supplied to the aircraft performing the aviation activity.

    The Community and the Member States shall ensure that the working methods to be used by the verifier are harmonised before the implementation of the Directive and that its provisions are applied on a uniform basis.

    Additional provisions for the verification of tonne-kilometre data submitted for the purposes of Article 3d(1)

    (15)

    The general principles, and methodology for verifying emissions reports under Article 14 (3) set out in this Annex shall, where applicable, also apply correspondingly to the verification of aviation tonne-kilometre data.

    (16)

    The verifier shall in particular ascertain that only flights actually performed and falling within an aviation activity listed in Annex I for which the aircraft operator is responsible have been taken into account in that operator's application under Article 3d(1). In this task the verifier shall be assisted by data on the operator's traffic including data from Eurocontrol requested by the operator. In addition, the verifier shall ascertain that the payload reported by the operator corresponds to records on payloads kept by that operator for safety purposes.

    The Community and the Member States shall ensure that the working methods to be used by the verifier are harmonised before the implementation of the Directive and that its provisions are applied on a uniform basis.

    ‘Dys’crimination and social exclusion affecting children with ‘dys’abilities

    Declaration of the European Parliament on ‘dys’crimination and social exclusion affecting children with ‘dys’abilities

    The European Parliament,

    having regard to Rule 116 of its Rules of Procedure,

    A.

    whereas, according to estimates more than 10 % of children are affected each year by one or other ‘dys’- type disability such as dysphasia, dyspraxia, dyslexia, dyscalculia or attention deficit disorder, etc., and whereas the statistics on these disorders need to be refined,

    B.

    whereas this type of ‘dys’ability, which badly impairs communication from a very early age, goes unidentified in many Member States,

    C.

    whereas research into these ‘dys’abilities, including research coordinated under the Seventh Framework Programme, must be stepped up,

    D.

    whereas the only way to prevent ‘dys’crimination against affected children is to give them early, intensive and multidisciplinary treatment in appropriate structures (either in the normal school environment with appropriate special care, or in a specialised establishment),

    1.

    Asks the Commission and the Council:

    to draw up a charter for ‘dys’ children,

    to encourage the recognition of ‘dys’-type problems as disabilities,

    to promote best practices regarding:

    making information accessible,

    taking timely steps to identify, screen, systematically diagnose and treat these disorders at an early stage,

    designing effective learning structures within both the ordinary and the specialist educational environment for young children, adolescents and young adults,

    adapting structures for integrating young people with these disabilities into the world of work,

    to promote and encourage the creation of a European multidisciplinary network on specific learning difficulties, and by this means to collect and study information and promote the coordination of cross-border actions, as well as institutional dialogue;

    2.

    Instructs its President to forward this Declaration, together with the names of the signatories, to the Council, the Commission and the parliaments of the Member States:
