having regard to Rule 45 of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
— |
having regard to the report of the Committee on Budgetary Control (A6-0261/2006), |
Respect for multilingualism
|
1. |
Considers that multilingualism is one of the key features of the European Union, which highlights cultural and linguistic diversity and ensures equal treatment of EU citizens; |
|
2. |
Considers that multilingualism guarantees citizens' right to communicate with the EU institutions in any of its official languages, thus enabling them to exercise their right of democratic control; |
|
3. |
Considers that the linguistic services of the EU institutions facilitate communication, and that, in so doing, the institutions remain open to the citizens of Europe; |
|
4. |
Considers that the total cost of all the linguistic services of the EU institutions, translation and interpretation combined, represent merely 1% of the total EU budget; |
|
5. |
Considers that its Rules of Procedure stipulate that Members may speak in the official language of their choice and that interpretation into the other languages is provided; considers that, in addition, the use of official languages is governed by its ‘Code of Conduct on Multilingualism’, updated in 2004; |
|
6. |
Considers that multilingualism is an expression of the EU's cultural diversity, which must be preserved, and that, therefore, while the increasing number of official languages calls for pragmatic solutions in the preparatory work within the institutions, multilingualism must be guaranteed to ensure the legitimacy and diversity of the European Union; |
With regard to all institutions
|
7. |
Welcomes with satisfaction the high quality of interpretation in the EU institutions; is furthermore of the opinion that the high quality of interpretation must be continuously evaluated and guaranteed; |
|
8. |
Notes that the overall cost of interpretation in 2003 was EUR 57 000 000 as regards the Parliament and EUR 106 000 000 as regards the Council, the Commission, the European Economic and Social Committee, the Committee of the Regions and some agencies; |
|
9. |
Is, however, very concerned that in 2003 approximately 16 % (EUR 25 900 000) of the total interpretation costs for that year of EUR 163 000 000 represented costs for services supplied but not used and for stand-by arrangements; |
|
10. |
Is of the opinion that the Parliament, the Council and the Commission should endeavour to reduce ‘implicit or explicit stand-by duty’, these arrangements accounting for EUR 18 000 000 spent on interpretation services supplied but not used; notes that reserve interpreters should be available for ad hoc meetings with a short request time; |
|
11. |
Calls on its administration, the Council and the Commission to improve inter-institutional cooperation; |
|
12. |
Calls on the Parliament and Commission interpretation services, in order to be more efficient, to exchange interpreters and create mixed interpretation teams, and to make possible the use of available interpreters where and when they are requested in order to meet real needs; |
|
13. |
Calls on the institutions to encourage and facilitate the use of ‘local interpreters’, language combination premitting , and stresses that national administrative provisions must not be an obstacle; notes that a high quality of interpretation must be guaranteed; |
|
14. |
Considers that the Parliament and the Commission should establish an overview on the official/freelance ratio per language in time for the 2006 discharge; |
|
15. |
Calls on the Commission to reinforce, in coordination with other institutions, cooperation with Member States in training interpreters from their respective countries; |
|
16. |
Calls on the EU institutions to renegotiate the agreement with the Auxiliary Conference Interpreters (ACI) with regard to travel arrangements, remuneration, inter-institutional cooperation and administrative simplification; |
|
17. |
Notes the high share of travel and accommodation costs; urges meeting organisers and interpretation services to reduce travel and accommodation costs; calls for better coordination, planning and organisation of travel and accommodation arrangements; |
With regard to the Parliament
|
18. |
Expects its administration to provide estimates of the average total daily cost of ACIs and permanent interpreters in time for the 2005 discharge report; |
|
19. |
Notes that the full cost for an interpretation day is almost 30 % higher in Parliament than in the Council or the Commission, one reason being that very few local interpreters can be used during Strasbourg sessions, which increases Parliament's interpretation costs in Strasbourg by 13 %; |
|
20. |
Notes its refusal to take part in an evaluation with a view to creating an inter-institutional office providing interpretation services to all EU institutions, this having been considered by the Bureau on 4 September 2005 as being incompatible with the interests of Parliament; |
|
21. |
Calls on its administration to continue to establish meaningful ‘session reports’, i.e. reports from the head of an interpretation team about the active and passive use of languages during group, committee and delegation meetings, and to report back on its findings in time for the 2005 discharge procedure; |
|
22. |
Urges its administration to raise Members' awareness of interpretation costs; asks if it makes best possible use of the language profiles of Members; stresses that this should not lead to a ranking of official EU languages; |
|
23. |
Recalls that, pursuant to Article 1 of the Code of Conduct on Multilingualism of 19 April 2004, resources should be allocated taking into consideration the users' real needs; |
|
24. |
Calls on its administration to study how the Council's ‘request system’, the Council of Europe's internal billing system or Unesco's quota system for interpretation could be used by the Parliament; |
|
25. |
Notes that in 2003 it spent EUR 4 000 000 on interpretation services made available but not used due to late requests or cancellations; asks that last-minute cancellations and last-minute requests be discouraged; furthermore calls on the interpretation services to be more flexible in their service planning and request system; |
|
26. |
Calls on its responsible bodies to adapt its calendar of committee, group and plenary session weeks in order to achieve a better balance between needs and available resources; |
*
* *
|
27. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission and the European Court of Auditors. |

3. |
Calls on the Commission, now that this financial framework has been adopted, to confirm the amounts indicated in the proposal for a regulation or, should the need arise, to submit adjusted amounts for approval by the European Parliament and the Council, so as to ensure that those amounts are compatible with the ceiling; |
|
4. |

|
5. |
Instructs its President to forward its position to the Council and Commission. |

P6_TC1-COD(2005)0098
Position of the European Parliament adopted at first reading on 5 September 2006 with a view to the adoption of Regulation (EC) No .../2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council on multiannual funding for the action of the European Maritime Safety Agency in the field of response to pollution caused by ships and amending Regulation (EC) No 1406/2002
(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 80(2) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the Opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (1),
Having consulted the Committee of the Regions,
Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (2),
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Certain bilateral and regional agreements concluded between coastal states, such as the Helsinki and Barcelona Conventions of 1992 and 1976 respectively, provide for mutual assistance in the event of a maritime pollution incident. |
|
(2) |
Regulation (EC) No 1406/2002 (3) established a European Maritime Safety Agency (hereinafter ‘the Agency’) for the purpose of ensuring a high, uniform and effective level of maritime safety and prevention of pollution by ships. |
|
(3) |
Regulation (EC) No 724/2004, which amended Regulation (EC) No 1406/2002, assigned to the Agency new tasks in the fields of preventing and responding to pollution caused by ships, in response to recent accidents in Community waters, particularly those of the oil tankers ‘Erika’ and ‘Prestige’. |
|
(4) |
For the purposes of implementing these new tasks of preventing and responding to pollution, the Administrative Board of the Agency adopted on 22 October 2004 an Action Plan for Oil Pollution Preparedness and Response, which determines the Agency's oil pollution response activities and is aimed at optimum use of the financial resources available to the Agency (hereinafter ‘the Action Plan’). |
|
(5) |
The pollution response action of the Agency, as defined in the Action Plan, relates to activities in the fields of information, cooperation and coordination and above all the provision of operational assistance to the Member States by supplying, on request, additional anti-pollution vessels to combat oil pollution and other types of pollution such as that caused by hazardous and noxious substances. The Agency is to pay particular attention to those areas identified as most vulnerable without prejudice to any other area in need. |
|
(6) |
The activities of the Agency in this field should not relieve coastal states of their responsibility to have appropriate pollution response mechanisms in place and should comply with existing cooperation arrangements between Member States or groups of Member States in this field. In the event of a maritime pollution incident, the Agency is to assist the Member State(s) affected, under whose authority clean-up operations are to be conducted. |
|
(7) |
In accordance with the Action Plan, the Agency is to play an active role in developing a centralised satellite imagery service for surveillance, the early detection of pollution and identification of the ships responsible. This new system will improve the availability of data and the effectiveness of the response to pollution caused by ships. |
|
(8) |
The additional means to be provided by the Agency to the Member States should be made available through the Community mechanism in the field of civil protection assistance interventions, including accidental marine pollution, established by Council Decision 2001/792/EC, Euratom (4). |
|
(9) |
In order to ensure thorough implementation of the Action Plan and strengthen the prevention of and response to pollution caused by ships by expanding current anti-pollution activities, the Agency should be provided with a viable and cost-effective system for financing, in particular, its operational assistance to the Member States. |
|
(10) |
It is therefore necessary to provide for appropriate financial security for the funding of the tasks entrusted to the Agency in the field of pollution response and other associated actions on the basis of a multiannual commitment. The annual amounts of the Community contribution should be determined in accordance with the procedures in force. |
|
(11) |
The amounts to be committed for the funding of pollution response should cover the period 2007 to 2013, in line with the new financial framework. |
|
(12) |
A financial envelope covering the same period should therefore be provided for the implementation of the Action Plan. |
|
(13) |
The amount of that envelope should be regarded as the minimum needed to carry out the tasks entrusted to the Agency in the field of responding to pollution caused by ships. |
|
(14) |
In order to optimise the allocation of commitments and take into account any changes with regard to activities in response to pollution caused by ships, it is necessary to ensure continuous monitoring of the particular needs for action so as to allow for adaptation of the annual financial commitments. |
|
(15) |
The Administrative Board of the Agency should thus review the budgetary commitments, on the basis of a report to be produced by the Executive Director, to include any necessary adjustments to the budget of the Agency. Regulation (EC) No 1406/2002 should therefore be amended accordingly, |
HAVE ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

The European Parliament,

Position of the European Parliament adopted at first reading on 5 September 2006 with a view to the adoption of Decision No .../2006/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing for the period 2007-2013 the specific programme ‘Fight against violence (Daphne III)’ as part of the General programme ‘Fundamental Rights and Justice’
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 152 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) |
The Treaty establishes that in the definition and implementation of all Community policies and activities a high level of human health protection has to be ensured; Article 3(1)(p) of the Treaty requires Community action to include a contribution to the attainment of a high level of health protection. |
|
(2) |
Community action should complement national policies directed towards improving public health, obviating sources of danger to human health. |
|
(3) |
Physical, sexual and psychological violence against children, young people and women, including threats of such acts, coercion or arbitrary deprivation of liberty, whether occurring in public or private life, and, in particular, trafficking in human beings and enforced prostitution, constitute a breach of their right to life, safety, freedom, dignity and physical and emotional integrity and a serious threat to the physical and mental health of the victims of such violence. The effects of such violence, being so widespread throughout the Community, constitute a genuine human rights violation and health scourge and an obstacle to the enjoyment of safe, free and just citizenship. |
|
(4) |
Traditions and cultural practices associated with the exercise of physical violence against women, such as genital mutilation and honour crimes, constitute a particular form of violence against women with short-term and long-term detrimental effects on their health, the main victims being members of minority communities. |
|
(5) |
The World Health Organisation defines health as a state of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. According to a 1996 World Health Assembly resolution, violence is a leading worldwide public health problem. In its report on violence and health of 3 October 2002 , the organisation recommends promoting primary prevention responses, strengthening responses for victims of violence and increasing collaboration and exchange of information on violence prevention. |
|
(6) |
These principles are recognised in numerous conventions, declarations and protocols of the main international organisations and institutions such as the United Nations, the International Labour Organisation, the World Conference on Women and the World Congress against Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children. |
|
(7) |
The fight against violence should be placed within the context of the protection of fundamental rights, as guaranteed by the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union (4) , which reaffirms, inter alia, the rights to dignity, equality and solidarity. It includes a number of specific provisions to protect and promote physical and mental integrity, equal treatment for men and women, the rights of the child and non-discrimination, as well as to prohibit inhuman or degrading treatment, slavery and forced labour, and child labour. It reaffirms that a high level of human health protection shall be ensured in the definition and implementation of all Union policies and activities. |
|
(8) |
The Commission has been called upon by the European Parliament to draw up and implement action programmes to combat such violence, inter alia, in its Resolutions of 19 May 2000 on the communication from the Commission to the Council and the European Parliament‘For further actions in the fight against trafficking in women ’ (5) , of 20 September 2001 on female genital mutilation (6) , of 17 January 2006 on strategies to prevent the trafficking of women and children who are vulnerable to sexual exploitation (7) , and of 2 February 2006 on the current situation in combating violence against women and any future action (7) .. |
|
(9) |
The programme of Community action (the Daphne programme) (2000 to 2003) on preventive measures to fight violence against children, young persons and women set up by Decision No 293/2000/EC (8) has helped increase awareness within the European Union and increase and consolidate cooperation between organisations in the Member States active in combating violence. |
|
(10) |
The programme of Community action (2004 to 2008) to prevent and combat violence against children, young people and women and to protect victims and groups at risk (the Daphne II programme) set up by Decision No 803/2004/EC (9) further developed the results already achieved by the Daphne programme; according to Article 8(2) thereof the Commission shall take the necessary steps to ensure the consistency of the annual appropriations with the new financial framework. |
|
(11) |
It is desirable to ensure continuity for the projects supported by the Daphne and the Daphne II programmes. |
|
(12) |
It is important and necessary to recognise the serious immediate and long-term implications of violence against children, young people and women for physical and mental health, psychological and social development, and for the equal opportunities of those concerned, for individuals, families and communities, and the high social and economic costs to society as a whole. |
|
(13) |
It is necessary to recognise that some groups, namely women belonging to minority groups, refugee women, women migrants, women living in poverty in rural or remote communities, women in institutions or in detention, female children, lesbian women, women with disabilities and elderly women, are particularly vulnerable to violence. |
|
(14) |
Not only children who are directly subjected to violence but also children who witness their mothers being assaulted should be regarded as victims of violence in accordance with this programme. |
|
(15) |
Concerning the prevention of violence, including maltreatment of newborn children or abuse and sexual exploitation perpetrated against children, young people and women and the protection of victims and groups at risk, the European Union will bring added value to the actions principally to be undertaken by Member States by the following means: the dissemination and exchange of information, experience and good practices; the promotion of an innovative approach; the inclusion of new family models; the joint establishment of priorities; the development of networking as appropriate , not least in order to support the victims of sexual, psychological or physical violence and groups at risk ; the selection of Community-wide projects; and the motivation and mobilisation of all parties concerned. These actions should also concern children and women brought to the Member States through human trafficking. |
|
(16) |
The overall objective of the Union's measures against violence is to prevent and combat all forms of violence in order to eliminate this crime and gross violations of human rights completely. To achieve this objective, clear and credible targets are required. |
|
(17) |
The European Federation for Missing and Sexually Exploited Children groups together at European level different NGOs dealing with the problem of the disappearance and sexual exploitation of children. The Federation raises awareness and fights against the phenomena of missing and sexually exploited children by facilitating communication between European organisations towards a more efficient approach, stimulating the creation of a European study centre to centralise and analyse data concerning these phenomena and promoting and conducting activities to improve the situation of minors, victims of disappearance and/or sexual abuse, and to change the legal norms, the mentality and behaviour in Europe. |
|
(18) |
The programme will pay attention to the situation of street children, a situation which is becoming dramatic as street children are not only victims of traffickers in drugs and human beings, but also suffer violence and sexual abuse. In order to reintegrate these children into society a programme is needed which provides answers to social and family problems and takes account of these children's needs. |
|
(19) |
The European Network of Ombudspersons for Children (ENOC) links independent children's rights institutions in twenty-four Member States of the Council of Europe. Its aims are to encourage the fullest possible implementation of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, to support collective lobbying for children's rights, to share information, approaches and strategies, and to promote the development of effective independent offices for children. |
|
(20) |
The objectives of the proposed action, namely to prevent and combat all forms of violence against children, young people and women, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States because of the need for an exchange of information at EU level and for the Community-wide dissemination of good practices. This can be better achieved at Community level. Due to the need for a coordinated and multidisciplinary approach and by reason of the scale or impact of the initiative, 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 Decision does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve those objectives. |
|
(21) |
Appropriate measures should also be taken to prevent irregularities and fraud and the necessary steps should be taken to recover funds lost, wrongly paid or incorrectly used. |
|
(22) |
This Decision lays down, for the entire duration of the programme, a financial envelope constituting the prime reference, within the meaning of point 37 of the Interinstitutional Agreement of 17 May 2006 between the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on budgetary discipline and sound financial management (10), for the budgetary authority during the annual budgetary procedure. |
|
(23) |
Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 of 25 June 2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities (11), hereinafter ‘the Financial Regulation’, and Commission Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2342/2002 of 23 December 2002 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 (12), which safeguard the Community's financial interests, have to be applied, taking into account the principles of simplicity and consistency in the choice of budgetary instruments, a limitation on the number of cases where the Commission retains direct responsibility for their implementation and management, and the required proportionality between the amount of resources and the administrative burden related to their use. |
|
(24) |
The Financial Regulation requires a basic act to be provided to cover operating grants. |
|
(25) |
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 (13) , measures for the implementation of this Decision should be adopted by use of the advisory procedure provided for in Article 3 of that Decision. This is appropriate since the programme does not have a significant impact on the Community budget, |

4. For a period of five years following the last payment in respect of any action, the beneficiary of financial assistance shall keep available for the Commission all the supporting documents regarding expenditure on the action.
5. On the basis of the results of the reports and sample checks referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2, the Commission shall, if necessary, adjust the scale or the conditions of allocation of the financial assistance originally approved and also the timetable for payments.
6. The Commission shall take every other step necessary to verify that the actions financed are carried out properly and in compliance with the provisions of this Decision and the Financial Regulation.
Article 15
Protection of Community financial interests
1. The Commission shall ensure that, when actions financed under this Decision are implemented, the financial interests of the Community are protected by the application of preventive measures against fraud, corruption and any other illegal activities, by effective checks and by the recovery of the amounts unduly paid and, if irregularities are detected, by effective, proportional and dissuasive penalties, in accordance with Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2988/95 of 18 December 1995 on the protection of the European Communities' financial interests (14), Council Regulation (Euratom, EC) No 2185/96 of 11 November 1996 concerning onthe- spot checks and inspections carried out by the Commission in order to protect the European Communities' financial interests against fraud and other irregularities (15) and Regulation (EC) No 1073/1999 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 May 1999 concerning investigations conducted by the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) (16) .
2. For the Community actions financed under the programme, Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2988/95 and Regulation (Euratom, EC) No 2185/96 shall apply to any infringement of a provision of Community law, including infringements of a contractual obligation stipulated on the basis of the programme, resulting from an act or omission by an economic operator, which has, or would have, the effect of prejudicing the general budget of the European Union or budgets managed by the European Communities, by an unjustified item of expenditure.
3. The Commission shall reduce, suspend or recover the amount of financial assistance granted for an action if it finds irregularities, including non-compliance with the provisions of this Decision or the individual decision or the contract or agreement granting the financial support in question, or if it transpires that, without Commission approval having being sought, the action has been subjected to a change which conflicts with the nature or implementing conditions of the project.
4. If the time limits have not been observed or if only part of the allocated financial assistance is justified by the progress made with implementing an action, the Commission shall request the beneficiary to submit observations within a specified period. If the beneficiary does not give a satisfactory answer, the Commission may cancel the remaining financial assistance and demand repayment of sums already paid.
5. Any undue payment shall be repaid to the Commission. Interest shall be added to any sums not repaid in good time under the conditions laid down by the Financial Regulation.
Article 16

TEXT PROPOSED BY THE COMMISSION |
AMENDMENTS BY PARLIAMENT |

|
Amendment 30 |
|||||
|
Recital 1 |
|||||
|
(1) Passengers car taxation can be an important complementary tool to support environmental objectives, in particular in relation to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and it is appropriate, therefore, to introduce a carbon dioxide based element in the tax bases of both registration taxes and annual circulation taxes. However, in order to contribute to meeting the commitments made by the Community and its Member States under the Kyoto Protocol, the proposed elements directly relating to carbon dioxide emissions should be inserted in the tax bases of the passenger related taxes applied during the commitment period from 2008 to 2012. As the Community's strategic objective to reduce the carbon dioxide emissions from passenger cars needs to be achieved by 2010 at the latest, it is appropriate to apply fully the carbon dioxide based element by 31 December 2010. |

|
Recital 3 |
|||||
|
(3) Member States should be encouraged to apply coordinated fiscal incentive for passenger cars that fulfil stricter emission limits than those which became mandatory under Directive 98/69/EC (Euro 4), relating to measures to be taken against air pollution by emissions from motor vehicles and amending Council Directive 70/220/EEC, to expedite the placing on the market of passenger cars which satisfy future requirements to be adopted at Community level (Euro 5). |

In addition to the carbon dioxide-based element introduced by this Directive, the Member States may introduce differentiated taxation based on polluant emissions and the Euro classification into their national motor vehicle taxation systems. |
||||
|
Amendment 4 |
|||||
|
Recital 3a (new) |
|||||
|
|
(3a) Member States are strongly urged to refrain from imposing double taxation in the case of passenger car registration taxes; particular consideration should be given to the case of EU citizens returning to their country of origin after spending more than two years in another Member State. |
||||
|
Amendment 5 |
|||||
|
Recital 3b (new) |
|||||
|
|
(3b) Member States should also be encouraged to apply coordinated fiscal incentives for passenger cars in order to expedite the placing on the market of passenger cars and vehicle equipment that meet energy-saving and energy-efficiency requirements, whether the power source used is fossil fuel, such as petrol, diesel, or LPG, alternative fuel, such as bio fuel, natural gas, or hydrogen, or electrical energy, including hybrid engines. |
||||
|
Amendment 6 |
|||||
|
Recital 3c (new) |
|||||
|
|
(3c) Member States should have the opportunity, in addition to the carbon dioxide-based element, of continuing to differentiate between categories of pollutants in accordance with Council Directive 70/220/EEC of 20 March 1970 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States on measures to be taken against air pollution by emissions from motor vehicles (2) (Euro norms) as a basis for calculating annual circulation tax and registration tax. |
||||
|
Amendment 7 |
|||||
|
Recital 4 |
|||||
|
(4) It should be possible for fiscal incentives to take the form of tax differentiation of passenger car related taxes, applied on the basis of the amount in grams of carbon dioxide emitted per kilometre by each particular car. |
(4) It should be possible for fiscal incentives to take the form of tax differentiation of passenger car related taxes, applied on the basis of emissions of pollutants in the form of nitrogen oxides and soot particles by each particular car as well as their carbon dioxide emissions, measured in grams per kilometre, and their fuel consumption, calculated in litres per 100 kilometres in accordance with the parameters laid down by Commission Directive 1999/100/EC of 15 December 1999 adapting to technical progress Council Directive 80/1268/EEC relating to the carbon dioxide emissions and the fuel consumption of motor vehicles (3). |
||||
|
Amendment 9 |
|||||
|
Recital 5a (new) |
|||||
|
|
(5a) The tax differentiation established in implementing this Directive should be taken into account in the forthcoming review of Directive 1999/94/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 December 1999 relating to the availability of consumer information on fuel economy and CO2 emissions in respect of the marketing of new passenger cars (4) in order to ensure the provision of consistent information to prospective car owners. |
||||
|
Amendment 10 |
|||||
|
Recital 6 |
|||||
|
(6) In the internal market, tax obstacles to the free movement of persons and of their personal property, including passenger cars, should be removed. The present Directive aims at removing such obstacles by means of restructuring passenger car related taxes applied by Member States, without obliging them to introducing any new taxes. |
(6) In the internal market, tax obstacles to the free movement of persons and of their personal property, including passenger cars, should be removed. The present Directive aims at removing such obstacles by means of restructuring passenger car related taxes applied by Member States, without obliging them to introducing any new taxes and in accordance with the principle of budget neutrality. |
||||
|
Amendment 12 |
|||||
|
Recital 8a (new) |
|||||
|
|
(8a) The abolition of registration taxes has a beneficial effect on road safety and the environment since it leads to a more rapid renewal of the car fleet. The reduction in the cost of purchase is an incentive to replace old vehicles with safer, less polluting, more fuel efficient vehicles. The principle of taxing the use and environmental impact of a vehicle is in line with the fundamental principle of the Community's environmental policy which requires the polluter to bear the costs of environmental damage. |
||||
|
Amendment 13 |
|||||
|
Recital 10 |
|||||
|
(10) It is appropriate that, where applicable, the refund systems for both registration and annual circulation taxes be introduced without delay, in order to avoid distortions and different tax treatment of passenger cars. |
(10) It is appropriate that, where applicable, the refund systems for both registration and annual circulation taxes be introduced without delay, in order to avoid distortions and different tax treatment of passenger cars. The transaction costs associated with the payment of registration taxes should be reduced by setting up one-stop online solutions for the calculation, refund and payment of car registration taxes when moving between Member States. |
||||
|
Amendment 40 |
|||||
|
Recital 11a (new) |
|||||
|
|
(11a) In the interest of preserving classic and old vintage vehicles, nothing in this Directive shall inhibit the right of Member States to exempt vehicles of at least 20 years of age from circulation taxes. |
||||
|
Amendment 14 |
|||||
|
Recital 13a (new) |
|||||
|
|
(13a) Taking into consideration the close cooperation between several Member States on the one hand and European Economic Area-European Free Trade Association countries (EEA-EFTA countries) on the other, and in order to ensure a higher level of cooperation, especially in the field of environmental protection, it is recommended that the relevant provisions be extended to the EEA-EFTA countries in question. |

|
Amendment 15 |

Recital 14 |
|||||
|
(14) Since the objectives of improving the functioning of the internal market in the area of passenger cars, and of the successful use of fiscal measures in order to implement the Community's strategy to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from passenger cars cannot be sufficiently achieved by the individual Member States and can therefore, by reason of the scale or effects of the 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 those objectives, |

51. Urges the Commission to support continuing reforms in any Member State that practised the abuse of psychiatry, over-use of medication or incarceration, or inhumane practices such as caged beds or excessive use of seclusion rooms, particularly in some of the new Member States; stresses that in some of the new Member States mental health indicators in society are as a rule drifting in the wrong direction, with a lot of suicides, violence and dependencies, especially on alcohol; ...

|
A. |
whereas the European social model reflects a common set of values, based on the preservation of peace, social justice, equality, solidarity, the promotion of freedom and democracy, and respect for human rights, |
|
B. |
whereas one of the cornerstones of the European social model is the social economy, |
|
C. |
whereas in the last 60 years, the set of common values reflected in the European social model has allowed a growing EU successfully to become an area of greater economic prosperity and social justice, |
|
D. |
whereas, although Member States have different social systems, and have implemented these values in different ways, they commonly aim to attain a balance based on active interdependence between economic growth and social solidarity, and this is reflected in the European social model as a unity of values with a diversity of systems, |
|
E. |
whereas Member States and the EU have given priority to upholding the values associated with the European social model, demonstrated by the objectives of the Lisbon Strategy, which makes social development one of the pillars of sustainable development, |
|
F. |
whereas there is a clear need to modernise and reform the European social model to respond to demographic changes, meet the challenge of globalisation, and increase the adaptability of human resources to rapid technological evolution, in order to better achieve social inclusion, social justice, and the eradication of poverty, |
|
G. |
whereas the European social model must provide measures that meet the challenge of increased migration and immigration and their implications for social cohesion, |
|
H. |
whereas any reform of the European social model must not dilute the values that constitute its essence, |
|
I. |
whereas a core message of the European social model is equal pay for equal work at the place of work, |
|
J. |
whereas higher economic growth is paramount for the sustainability of European social standards, and social standards are intrinsic to sustainable growth, |
|
K. |
whereas an adequate income is fundamental to social inclusion and active participation in society as well as a life of dignity, |
|
L. |
whereas social policies, when appropriately designed, should not be regarded as a cost but, instead, as a positive factor in the EU's economic growth, not only by increasing productivity and competitiveness, but also by generating social cohesion, raising living standards for citizens, and ensuring access to fundamental rights and equality, thus becoming an important factor in ensuring societal peace and political stability, without which there can be no lasting economic progress, |
|
M. |
whereas such social policies must recognise that the majority of employers are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and that they employ the majority of employees, |
|
N. |
whereas services of general interest (SGIs) and services of general economic interest (SGEIs) were expressly recognised for the first time in the Amsterdam Treaty as core elements of how Member States ensure social and territorial cohesion and as areas which Member States retained the right to define and to fund, and this position was reinforced in the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe, |
|
O. |
whereas the concept of the European social model is reflected in that constitutional Treaty, and is underpinned by the principles of equality, solidarity and non-discrimination, |
|
P. |
whereas the Member States should follow the Roadmap for equality between women and men 2006-2010 (COM(2006)0092), and the European Pact for Gender Equality, and fully transpose current Community anti-discrimination legislation into national law, |
|
Q. |
whereas the EU has the capacity positively or negatively to influence the economies in many other parts of the world, by the way in which it trades, both in terms of its role in the WTO and in the conditions that it applies and the agreements into which it enters with less developed regions and countries, |
|
R. |
whereas the implementation of a trade policy based on European collective preferences and globally shared values, and an aid policy aimed at eliminating child labour and promoting education, basic labour and environmental standards, and standards of transparency and good governance, will contribute to the enhancement of the political strength of the EU in international institutions, |
Reform of the European Social Model
|
1. |
Stresses the necessity of preserving and enhancing the values associated with the European social model: equality, solidarity, individual rights and responsibilities, non-discrimination and redistribution with access for all citizens to high-quality public services, and the high social standards already achieved; |
|
2. |
Insists that only an EU based on economic and social cohesion that defends its common values can be strong enough to protect its interests; |
|
3. |
Is convinced that there is no alternative to urgently reforming economic and social systems where they fail to meet the criteria of efficiency and socially sustainable development, and where they are inadequate to tackle the challenges of demographic change, globalisation and the IT revolution; |
|
4. |
Expresses its deep disappointment at the present growth rate in the EU which makes structural reform extremely difficult; |
|
5. |
Is aware of the widespread concerns among EU citizens regarding unemployment — especially unemployment among young people — exclusion, poverty, insecurity on the job market, and the potential failure of social security systems; |
|
6. |
Believes that where demographic changes and unemployment affect certain groups disproportionately the European Union must aim to ensure equal access to high-quality jobs; |
|
7. |
Views the need to renew the EU's commitment to a social Europe as of paramount importance in restoring citizens' confidence in the EU project, which provides jobs, growth and prosperity; |
|
8. |
Is fully aware that employment and social policy remain broadly within national competence, but stresses that the EU also has competences in this field, as set out in the Treaties, and that there is a need for the EU to create a stronger economic and social framework, in order to allow Member States to implement reforms as necessary at national level, according to their own economic, social and political circumstances; |
|
9. |
Asks the Commission to take further initiatives to achieve the full implementation of the internal market, which, if fully realised, will create economic growth and competitiveness, having regard to the need to exclude any ‘race to the bottom’ in social, consumer or environmental standards; |
|
10. |
Supports the Commission in its efforts to encourage the creation and success of European enterprises, with particular reference to SMEs, which contribute greatly to the EU economy and account for the great majority of private-sector employees; |
|
11. |
Calls on the Commission and the Council to respect the initial equilateral triangle of the Lisbon Strategy and to develop an approach that is better balanced between economic coordination on the one hand and employment and social policy on the other; |
|
12. |
Expresses its disappointment that many Member States are far from achieving the Lisbon Strategy objectives; therefore reiterates the call on Member States fully to implement the revised Lisbon Strategy, which is considered to be the only sustainable way to achieve economic growth, increase competitiveness and create more and better jobs; calls on the Member States to achieve, in particular, the specific targets set for employment, especially of women and young people, R&D investment, childcare and lifelong learning; views the objectives of the Lisbon Strategy as minimum goals that are vital if the Member States are to undertake the necessary structural reforms; |
|
13. |
Recommends that Member States deepen cooperation and the exchange of best practice through the enhanced open method of coordination, thereby providing an efficient policy making instrument in the fields of employment, social protection, social exclusion, gender equality in the labour market, pensions, and healthcare; believes that the open method of coordination should enhance the role of parliaments, social partners and relevant organisations; |
|
14. |
Calls on the Commission to democratise the open method of coordination, ensuring that not only the European Parliament but also national parliaments play a full role in the setting and achieving of targets by Member States' governments; |
|
15. |
Stresses the importance of launching public campaigns to explain and negotiate the basis of reform objectives in which EU institutions, national governments, public authorities, social partners, and NGOs have an active role to play; |
|
16. |
Reaffirms its resolution of 12 January 2005 on the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe (4) and the Commission's ‘3D’ campaign of dialogue, debate and democracy; calls on the Commission now to incorporate the social dimensions in its impact analyses in accordance with the social clause provided for in the constitutional Treaty; |
|
17. |
Calls on the Commission to respect the social economy and to present a communication on this cornerstone of the European social model, as well as to introduce a statute for a European mutual society and a European association; |
Financing the reform
|
18. |
Calls on the Member States to undertake reforms in order to ensure the financial sustainability of national social systems, without prejudicing acquired rights, mutual support and intergenerational solidarity, having regard to the context of a changing society and a changing labour market, demographic change, globalisation and technological developments; points out that some of the most successful Member States have already carried out such reforms, while maintaining the sustainability and effectiveness of their social systems; considers, therefore, that comparative analyses should be made of the reforms already made, together with SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats) analyses of those still to be implemented; stresses the importance of promoting excellence, inter alia, by pooling good practice; |
|
19. |
Is aware that in some Member States current contributions to social protection systems may be inadequate to meet citizens' expectations; considers that Member States, while respecting the principle of solidarity and subsidiarity, should reflect on alternative ways to finance those systems which would promote dynamic reforms while not adversely affecting wages, such as harnessing the added value produced by companies and promoting the principle of vertical and horizontal subsidiarity between institutions and the public; |
|
20. |
Calls for improved coordination of Member States' tax policies with a view to avoiding harmful tax competition, ensuring sustainable financing for social protection and making tax policy more employmentfriendly; notes the fact that tax rates on capital and consumption have, in general, remained stable over the last 30 years while real tax rates on labour have risen over the same period; recommends that the Member States reflect in a coordinated way on the possibilities of improving the existing tax systems in the Union, since tax reforms of this nature would benefit the financial sustainability of national social systems; |
|
21. |
Stresses the need to strengthen the Structural and Cohesion Funds in order to take account of economic and social cohesion and calls on the Member States to utilise EU funds, such as the Structural Funds, more efficiently in order to co-finance national reforms; deplores the fact that the recent agreement on the Financial Framework was manifestly insufficient to properly resource programmes in favour of cohesion, education and training, lifelong learning, mobility and social dialogue; |
|
22. |
Stresses that any reforms have to be considered within the context of the Member States' budgetary margin of manoeuvre, but suggests that the reformed Stability and Growth Pact offers opportunities for social investment not previously available; |
SGIs and SGEIs
|
23. |
Recalls that SGIs and SGEIs are an essential element of the European social model, and are fundamental to the universal delivery of health, education, public transport, water and energy supplies to all citizens; considers it essential that in reforming the EU's social systems, SGIs and SGEIs are respected, given their key role not only in improving the quality of life of citizens, but also in enhancing businesses' capacity for efficiency and their access to a high-quality labour force; |
|
24. |
Notes the necessity of dealing adequately with new types of family, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity, and of enlarging the scope of social services, such as accessible childcare, care for those with special needs or disabilities, and long-term care for elderly persons, while maintaining a high level of consultation in medium and long-term planning; |
Social Dialogue
|
25. |
Recalls that social dialogue in its various manifestations is an essential element in the traditions of the Member States and, in accordance with national customs and practices, that any successful reform of social systems should involve all stakeholders, in particular the social partners; calls for the renewal of the social dialogue at both national and European level and the development of a greater role for the trialogue at European level; |
|
26. |
Recognises the positive role that corporate social responsibility can play in promoting social cohesion through the way in which companies' behaviour impacts upon the daily life of the communities in which they are involved and in enhancing companies' accountability to their stakeholders; recommends the use of social and environmental reporting requirements and public policy measures such as public procurement, in order to stimulate responsible behaviour on the part of companies; |
Human Resources
|
27. |
Insists that as a central element of the modernisation of social systems the Commission and the Member States cooperate in the setting up of concrete programmes and initiatives focused on the improvement of working and living conditions and the sustainable development of human resources, such as the setting of targets and standards for improved healthcare; |
|
28. |
Calls for a broad debate concerning the right of all people to a pension of an acceptable level; recognises the fear that pension reforms, begun in many Member States, will increase the number of pensioners already living in poverty; highlights the urgent need for positive action to encourage and enable older workers to remain in or re-enter the labour market, grant fair access and more flexibility in the choice of pension and retirement schemes; calls on the Commission to study national efforts to address the impact of demographic change on pension sustainability and pensioner poverty, and to monitor more effectively the implementation of existing age-discrimination legislation; |
|
29. |
Draws attention to the situation of women whose pension entitlement should not be diminished because of their marital status or interruptions in employment due to maternity or parental leave, or child-care breaks; |
|
30. |
Recognises the advantages of ‘flexicurity’ systems which Member States should adopt, in accordance with their circumstances, in order to protect workers' capacity to keep/find jobs through mobility and/or improvement of professional skills by way of occupational training and lifelong learning, and considers them to be a means of promoting the reconciliation of work-life balance and work and lifecycle concepts; |
|
31. |
Notes the creation of a Globalisation Adjustment Fund as a potential complement to the European Social Fund, as well as the Member States' efforts at national, regional and local level to provide specific support to workers seeking new or better jobs; |
|
32. |
Recalls that gender and race equality and the principle of non-discrimination under Article 13 of the EC Treaty, which provides a legal basis for appropriate action to combat discrimination based on sex, racial or ethnic origin, religion or belief, disability, age or sexual orientation, must be systematically included in all social policies; considers that emerging EU policies on integration are in fact a concrete form of social policy that should be developed; believes that ensuring that everyone, women, men, minority groups, and immigrants, are well integrated delivers benefits to society and social benefits in terms of cohesion and preparedness for the workplace; |
|
33. |
Emphasises in particular the importance of introducing social and work inclusion measures for disadvantaged persons experiencing difficulties in gaining access to the labour market without assistance, as provided for in Commission Regulation (EC) No 2204/2002 of 12 December 2002 on the application of Articles 87 and 88 of the Treaty to State aid for employment (5), with a view both to taking practical action to combat discrimination and to providing those concerned with a means of securing an income, independence, personal development and integration, either as an alternative to or in conjunction with welfare assistance; |
Social Protection
|
34. |
Emphasises that social protection systems should be efficient in achieving their goals of preventing and combating poverty and social exclusion, with particular emphasis on eliminating poverty traps; |
|
35. |
Considers that employment is a decisive factor in achieving social inclusion; therefore, calls for reforms that direct public spending towards raising employment rates and return-to-work rates and provide incentives to work by eliminating poverty traps and other forms of social exclusion, and address as a matter of urgency the numbers of women and of persons from some ethnic minorities who are unemployed, many of whom face societal and/or structural barriers to entering the labour market; further considers that the specific problems faced by women from ethnic minorities and immigrant women should be studied and addressed; |
|
36. |
Recognises that, in the ‘flexicurity’ approach, creating and maintaining adequate social protection mechanisms is an indispensable prerequisite of flexibility, as is firm protection against unfair dismissal; |
The external dimension
|
37. |
Reaffirms that only if the EU can preserve its economic and social cohesion will it be able successfully to defend EU interests at international level; |
|
38. |
Recognises that, despite its positive effects, globalisation is producing economic and social imbalances, thus arousing deep apprehension in the citizens of Europe, especially in Member States with high unemployment rates and the regions most affected by company relocations; calls on the Member States, accordingly, to undertake the structural reforms that are needed if the EU is to remain attractive on the world stage, with high-value products and services; |
|
39. |
Stresses that the EU should confidently promote its social values of solidarity and social justice in all trade and development negotiations and agreements; |
|
40. |
Calls on the EU and the Member States to adopt political actions in relation to third countries with high economic growth (Brazil, Russia, India and China) in order to attain a development model which provides for the respect of human rights, democracy, freedom, labour and environmental standards and social justice; urges the EU to help in finding a global equilibrium between economic growth and high social and environmental standards; |
|
41. |
Calls on the Commission and the Member States to adopt a consistent line in fora such as the ILO, the OECD, and multilateral environmental agencies; believes, in particular, that the work of the ILO should be more closely integrated into WTO agreements and considers that ILO core labour standards should be integrated into EU strategies towards WTO and bilateral negotiations; calls on the Commission to ensure, through bilateral agreements, that ILO standards are, as a minimum, respected so that child labour is eliminated and humane working conditions are guaranteed; |
|
42. |
Welcomes the introduction of the Generalised System of Preferences Plus (GSP+) scheme, which provides incentives for higher social and environmental standards, and calls for this approach to be extended to bilateral trade agreements; notes the need for the Commission to monitor closely the implementation of the scheme with a view to ensuring that compliance with these standards is being achieved; |

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

Improving the mental health of the population — towards a strategy on mental health for the EU
European Parliament resolution on improving the mental health of the population. Towards a strategy on mental health for the European Union (2006/2058(INI))
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to the Green Paper from the Commission — ‘Improving the mental health of the population. Towards a strategy on mental health for the European Union’ (COM(2005)0484), |
|
— |
having regard to Articles 2, 13 and 152 of the EC Treaty, |
|
— |
having regard to the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union (1), |
|
— |
having regard to Council Directive 2000/78/EC of 27 November 2000 establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation (2), |
|
— |
having regard to the Council Resolution of 18 November 1999 on the promotion of mental health (3), |
|
— |
having regard to the declaration of the WHO European Ministerial Conference of 15 January 2005 on facing the challenges of mental health in Europe and building solutions, |
|
— |
having regard to its resolution of 23 March 2006 on demographic challenges and solidarity between the generations (4), |
|
— |
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 opinions of the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs and of the Committee on Women's Rights and Gender Equality (A6-0249/2006), |
|
A. |
whereas one in four people in Europe experience at least one significant episode of mental ill health during their lives; whereas mental ill health affects everyone in the EU either directly or indirectly, and during the course of any one year 18,4 million people in the European Union aged between 18 and 65 are estimated to suffer from major depression; whereas good mental health enables citizens to be intellectually and emotionally fulfilled and integrated into social, educational and professional life; whereas, conversely, poor mental health gives rise to expense, social exclusion and stigmatisation, |
|
B. |
whereas mental health conditions substantially detract from the quality of life of those either directly or indirectly affected, |
|
C. |
whereas economic costs to society of mental ill health are enormous, with some estimates putting them at between 3% and 4% of GDP in the Member States of the European Union, |
|
D. |
whereas mental health conditions already have a very significant economic, health and social impact, which is set to increase as the rate of incidence rises, given the ageing population and changes in society, |
|
E. |
whereas some 58 000 European Union citizens commit suicide each year, more than the annual deaths from road traffic accidents or HIV/AIDS, and whereas ten times this number attempt suicide, |
|
F. |
whereas, in view of the assignment of competences in the EC Treaty, the added value of a Community strategy on the mental health of the people of Europe lies primarily in the field of prevention, |
|
G. |
whereas in some European countries up to 85 % of the money devoted to mental health is spent on maintaining large institutions, |
|
H. |
whereas a lack of understanding and investment in mental health promotion has contributed to deteriorating health and disabilities among individuals and societal problems, |
|
I. |
whereas approximately 40 % of all prisoners have some form of mental disorder and whereas they are up to seven times more likely to commit suicide than people in the community, and whereas inappropriate imprisonment can worsen the disorder and prevent rehabilitation, |
|
J. |
whereas throughout the European Union not enough attention or resources have been given to the mental health of children and young people, even though mental ill health is increasing significantly among the young, |
|
K. |
whereas there is a clear gender dimension to the issue of health, particularly as regards eating disorders, neurodegenerative disorders, schizophrenia, mood disorders, anxiety, panic, depression, abuse of alcohol and other psychoactive substances, as well as suicide and delinquency, areas which also require systematic research, |
|
L. |
whereas women tend to seek assistance from services more than men and are prescribed twice as many psychotropic drugs as men; whereas pharmacokinetic studies have shown that women have less tolerance to such products, |
|
M. |
whereas the prevention, early identification, intervention and treatment of mental disorders significantly reduces the personal, financial and social repercussions, |
|
N. |
whereas a great number of people suffer from neurodegenerative disorders and this number is expected to grow on account of, inter alia, longevity and the concomitant increase in the elderly population, |
|
O. |
whereas in most European Union countries there has been a move from long-term institutionalised care, both for children with developmental and behavioural problems which jeopardise their normal development, particularly in the educational sphere, and for adults with chronic and severe disorders and for those with learning disabilities, towards supported community living, but whereas this has been without proper planning and resourcing of community services, |
|
P. |
whereas mental health problems related to violence against women and girls are poorly identified; whereas accounts of victimisation are routinely not taken into account and many women and girls are reluctant to disclose a history of violent abuse unless doctors and medical personnel ask about it directly, |
|
Q. |
whereas the precondition for good mental health is an upbringing in a healthy family environment providing both material and psychological security and parental love, |
|
1. |
Welcomes the Commission's commitment to mental health promotion; calls for greater priority for this in health policies, with the emphasis on prevention, and in the Union's research policy, and believes this should be mainstreamed into the policies and legislation of all Commission Directorates and all Member State ministries, which should make a commitment to harmonising the current national and international mental health indicators, with a view to ensuring a comparable set of data at EU level; |
|
2. |
Considers that the gender dimension has not been duly taken into account in the Green Paper; calls, therefore, for this dimension to be systematically considered in the measures proposed to promote mental health, in preventive measures and in research, in which studies have to date been insufficient and inadequate, to such an extent that progress on the prevention and cure of mental illness has been significantly less great than in the case of other diseases; |
|
3. |
Considers the role of doctors in monitoring patients to be of paramount importance; |
|
4. |
Believes that good mental health is a prerequisite for the overall health and well-being of European citizens and for a healthy economic performance in the EU; encourages and supports all measures which aim to help prevent mental disorders; |
|
5. |
Stresses the need to think about the best way to use the available Community instruments, such as the 7th research framework programme, in order to build up a capacity capable of supporting research into mental health in the Union; |
|
6. |
Believes that any future proposal by the Commission relating to mental health should involve partnership and consultation with and the participation of those who have experienced or are experiencing mental health problems, their families and carers and advocacy NGOs, associations of family members and other interested parties, so as to make decision-making processes more representative and inclusive, and should promote networking among members of the families of psychiatric patients; |
|
7. |
Highlights the sizeable differences in mental health expenditure in individual Member States, both in terms of the absolute amount and as a proportion of health care expenditure as a whole; |
|
8. |
Believes that different actions will be needed to achieve the three aims of mental health promotion, mental health improvement and mental disorder prevention; believes that the aims of such actions should be to provide appropriate information, to obtain relevant knowledge and to develop appropriate attitudes and skills in order to safeguard the mental and physical health and improve the quality of life of European citizens; |
|
9. |
Stresses the need for careful use of terms such as ‘Mental Ill Health’, ‘Mental Health Disorders’, ‘Severe Mental Illness’ and ‘Personality Disorder’; |
|
10. |
Stresses the importance of the need for early screening, detection and diagnosis and of integrated, tailor-made treatment; |
|
11. |
Stresses the need to combat, through appropriate action, inequalities in the treatment of mental diseases which are evident in this field; |
|
12. |
Calls for people with learning disabilities to be included within any future strategy, as they face similar issues as people with mental disorders, including social exclusion, institutionalisation, abuse of human rights, discrimination, stigma and lack of support for themselves and their families and carers; calls, at the same time, for greater efforts to recognise cognitively gifted children and young people as such and to provide better support for them; |
|
13. |
Stresses the importance of mutual help and the leading role played by people's experience of treatment, illness and recovery; |
|
14. |
Welcomes the Commission's highlighting of children, employees, older people and disadvantaged members of society as key target groups, but would extend this to include, for example, those with severe mental illness, those with long-term and terminal illnesses, the disabled, prisoners, ethnic and other minority groups, rough sleepers, migrants, persons in precarious jobs and the unemployed, and the range of mental health and care issues of specific reference to women; |
|
15. |
Recognises that personality disorder presents particular challenges of diagnosis, treatment or management and care, requiring more research and distinct policies; calls on the Commission also to devote attention to aggression, the determinants of aggressive behaviour and its psychological consequences; |
|
16. |
Acknowledges that men and women may have different mental health needs, and calls for more research particularly into the link between compulsory in-patient care and self-harm and the higher rate of prescription of psychotropic drugs among women; |
|
17. |
Stresses the need for research into the proven variations in structure and activity between the brains of men and women, in order to develop separate approaches and treatments for the two sexes in the field of mental health; |
|
18. |
Calls for support for mothers during the prenatal and postnatal periods in order to prevent depression or other psychopathological conditions which manifest themselves in significant numbers of cases in these situations; |
|
19. |
Believes that good mental health of mothers and parents helps children to develop without hindrance and grow into healthy adults; |
|
20. |
Calls for a multi-disciplinary and multi-agency response to tackling complex mental ill health situations, such as how best to support children or adolescents with developmental or behavioural problems or eating disorders, and/or whose parents in many cases themselves suffer from mental ill health (or are kept in long-term institutions); |
|
21. |
Notes that socially-defined images of how girls' and women's bodies should look have an impact on women's and girls' mental health and well-being, resulting inter alia in an increase in eating disorders; |
|
22. |
Points out that mental ill health and mental disorders commonly have their roots in early childhood and stresses the importance of research into a healthy early childhood; |
|
23. |
Stresses the importance of continuing training and in-service training of the intermediaries: teaching staff, care workers, social and judicial services and employers; |
|
24. |
Welcomes the fact that the Green Paper recognises that social and environmental factors, such as personal experiences, family, and social support; living conditions such as poverty, living in big cities, and rural isolation; and working conditions, such as job insecurity, unemployment, and long working hours, play a role in the mental health of people; stresses that mental disorders are one of the reasons for early retirement and disability pensions; |
|
25. |
Considers that good working conditions contribute to mental health and calls for employers to introduce ‘Mental Health at Work’ policies as a necessary part of their health and safety at work responsibility, with a view to ensuring the ‘best possible jobs’ for and best possible incorporation into the labour market of persons with mental disorders, and that these should be published and monitored within existing health and safety legislation, while also taking workers' needs and views into account; |
|
26. |
Welcomes the social initiatives within social policy and employment policy to promote the nondiscriminatory treatment of individuals with mental ill health, the social integration of individuals with mental disabilities, and the prevention of stress in the workplace; |
|
27. |
With regard to the EU employment strategy, emphasises the influence of mental health on employment as well as the influence of unemployment on people's state of mental health; |
|
28. |
Believes Member States should work together to find and implement effective strategies to reduce suicide, particularly among young people and other at risk groups; |
|
29. |
Calls for greater recognition of the connection between discrimination, violence, and poor mental health, which underlines the importance of combating all forms of violence and discrimination as part of the strategy for the promotion of mental health through prevention; |
|
30. |
Sees one of the greatest challenges in mental health as being the ageing of Europe's population and urges that more emphasis is given to research into the mechanisms and causes of neurodegenerative diseases or other psychiatric illnesses in the elderly and to their prevention as well as their care, including the development of new therapies; |
|
31. |
Further believes that emphasis should be placed on the link between the consumption of alcohol and illegal drugs and mental disorders; considers that alcohol and drug addiction cause serious mental and physical health problems and problems for society as a whole; calls on the Commission to review without delay what detoxification programmes and methods of treatment are the most effective; |
|
32. |
Stresses that people with mental disorders should be treated and cared for with dignity and humanity and that medical care and support services should be effective and of a high quality, accessible to all sufferers and universal; that there should be a clear understanding as to their rights to be or not to be treated; that they should be empowered wherever possible to participate in decisions about their own treatment and consulted collectively on services; that, when prescribed medicines, they should have the fewest possible side effects; and that there should be information and advice for those who wish to withdraw safely from medication; |
|
33. |
Believes that the use of force is counterproductive, as is compulsory medication; believes that all forms of in-patient care and compulsory medication should be of limited duration and should, wherever possible, be regularly reviewed and subject to the patient's consent or, in the absence of such consent, to authorisation by the appropriate authorities used only as a last resort; |
|
34. |
Takes the view that any restriction of personal freedoms should be avoided, with particular reference to physical containment, which requires monitoring, verification and vigilance by democratic institutions responsible for upholding individual rights, in order to guard against abuses; |
|
35. |
Calls for the defeat of stigma to be at the heart of any future strategy, e.g. by establishing annual campaigns on mental health issues in order to combat ignorance and injustice, as the stigma attached to mental ill health leads to rejection by society in every field from employment to family, and from community to health professionals; considers furthermore that with a view to improving the mental health and conditions of patients, basic social and civil rights should be guaranteed, such as the right to housing and economic support for those unable to work and the right to marry and manage one's own affairs; further believes that stigma is in fact a form of discrimination and should be tackled by anti-discrimination laws; |
|
36. |
Recognises that an element of the stigma is a widespread perception that mental health disorders are acute and lifelong, whereas it is important to stress that, with appropriate help, people can recover, while others will achieve remission or a sufficient level of functionality or stability; |
|
37. |
Emphasises the need to reform mental health services so that they are based on high-quality community care at home or in sheltered accommodation with access to proper health and social care; with regular monitoring and assessment; with respite care for people with mental health problems and their carers; with a one-stop-shop approach to accessing health, social, housing, training, transport, benefits and other services; stresses that this should be backed up by a range of in-patient services for acute, chronic or secure needs but always with independent monitoring of anyone who receives compulsory in-patient care; |
|
38. |
Stresses, with this in mind, the need to support cooperatives formed by psychiatric patients and all activities geared to the inclusion of users and former patients and to earmark resources for the training of staff, so as to enable them to take account of all the needs of psychiatric patients; |
|
39. |
Stresses the need for continuous training on mental health matters for general and family practitioners and other professionals in primary health care services; |
|
40. |
Recognises that local government has an integral role to play in promoting good mental health, supporting those in poor mental health within their local communities and bringing together the various strands of a multi-agency approach to mental health service delivery; |
|
41. |
Believes that dual diagnosis of people with mental health and addiction problems should normally lead to concurrent treatment; |
|
42. |
Stresses that mental and physical aspects of health are interlinked, that mental disorders can have a biological, social, emotional or historical basis which must be addressed in order for other approaches to be successful, and that some psychiatric medicines can actually worsen the underlying biological condition; |
|
43. |
Calls for greater attention to the psychological consequences and symptoms of somatic diseases; stresses the need to give equal importance to mental and physical well-being in hospital care protocols, including for the treatment of serious and/or incurable illnesses; and believes it is essential for medical and paramedical personnel working in other specialised fields to undergo continuous training in psychopathology since disorders often remain undiagnosed or are underestimated; |
|
44. |
Supports the Commission's comments on deinstitutionalisation, as long-term stay in psychiatric institutions can lead to the protraction and exacerbation of psychopathological conditions, reinforcement of stigma and social exclusion, but acknowledges that greater efforts must be made to convince the public of the better results achieved when people with severe mental or learning disorders receive care in the community; |
|
45. |
Suggests that the Commission should collect, through the Public Health Programme, data on mental illness, recovery rates of treated patients and the effectiveness of their reintegration in society; |
|
46. |
Suggests the Commission identify sites and examples of good practice and disseminate details of these to all Member States, these ‘Demonstration Sites’ being comparable to WHO sites under their ‘Nations for Mental Health’ programme; considers that demonstration sites, ‘demonstration treatments’ and ‘demonstration prevention strategies’ could be important ways of reducing mental health inequalities between Member States; calls on the Commission to involve knowledge institutes in identifying demonstration sites, demonstration treatments and demonstration prevention strategies; |
|
47. |
Believes that, because all persons (according to UN General Assembly Resolution A/RES/46/119 of 17 December 1991 on the protection of persons with mental illness and the improvement of mental health care) have the right to the best available mental health care, best practice and relevant information should be disseminated and be available to all citizens; |
|
48. |
Believes that the term ‘treatment’ should be interpreted broadly, with the emphasis on identifying and eliminating social and environmental factors, while the use of medication should be a last resort, particularly in the case of children and young people; criticises the growing medicalisation and pathologisation of life stages, without a comprehensive search for causes; calls for account to be taken of factors such as personal experiences, family, social support and living and working conditions which play a role in mental illness as well as genetic factors; |
|
49. |
Draws attention to the large number of children who grow up in state care institutions in some Member States, especially in some of the new ones; urges the Commission to support more effectively the creation of alternative systems, which would help parents from risk groups to care for their children properly; calls for the ‘Child and adolescent mental health in an enlarged Europe: development of effective policies and practices’ project, which would coordinate progress in children's mental health strategy in the Member States, to be started as quickly as possible and effectively implemented; |
|
50. |
Further believes that in addition to treatment, an appropriate social and work environment as well as family and community support are required to prevent mental health problems and improve and promote mental well-being and the therapeutic strategy for and rehabilitation of sufferers of mental disorder; stresses the need for research into environments conducive to mental health and recovery; |
|
51. |
Urges the Commission to support continuing reforms in any Member State that practised the abuse of psychiatry, over-use of medication or incarceration, or inhumane practices such as caged beds or excessive use of seclusion rooms, particularly in some of the new Member States; stresses that in some of the new Member States mental health indicators in society are as a rule drifting in the wrong direction, with a lot of suicides, violence and dependencies, especially on alcohol; underlines that these countries inherited inadequate mental health care systems and large psychiatric and care institutions which increase social exclusion and stigma, while at the same time there is a lack of community services which need to be integrated into general health and social protection systems; calls on the Commission to place the reform of psychiatry on the agenda for EU accession negotiations; considers that prison is not a suitable environment for those suffering mental ill health and that alternatives should be actively pursued; |
|
52. |
Calls for more research into therapeutic and psychological interventions, into the development of more effective drugs with fewer side effects, into determinants of mental disorders and suicide, into outcome measurements for investment in mental health promotion and into methods contributing to successful recovery and remission; calls, in particular, for special attention to be devoted to research into medicines more suitable for children; stresses, moreover, that research must not be confined to pharmaceuticals but must extend to epidemiological, psychological and economic studies on the community and the social determinants of mental illness; further calls for an increase in the involvement of service users in all aspects of mental health research; |
|
53. |
Believes further that more research is needed into stigma and ways to counter it; the experience of individual service users and their carers; working relations between different services and professions and former service users; and cross-border provision; |
|
54. |
Believes that mental heath services should receive sufficient funding to reflect the cost of mental disorders to individuals, health and social care services, and society as a whole, so as to be effective and command public confidence; |
|
55. |
Believes that it is essential to apply high quality, individualised methods of promoting mental health, taking into account the particular needs of individuals and target groups; |
|
56. |
Recognises the valuable contribution that family members and informal carers make to supporting people with mental health problems, and equally recognises that many of them will have their own care needs, and will need information and support from professionals if they are to continue providing care; further recognises the valuable contribution that service users can make in supporting each other; |
|
57. |
Stresses the need to use vocabulary and terminology which will help to combat stigma, e.g. measures to eliminate prejudice, change attitudes and criticise stereotypes in regard to every category of mental disorder; |
|
58. |
Calls for a ‘Mental Health Coordinating and Monitoring Group’ to be established by the Commission to collect information on mental health practice and promotion in the EU, to assess the adequacy (in terms of numbers and training) of existing mental health professionals and infrastructure, and to disseminate information on best practice to all Member States and all parties involved in the treatment of mental health; stresses that patients' organisations, those providing treatment, care institutions and knowledge institutes must be involved in this Coordinating and Monitoring Group; |
|
59. |
Calls on the Commission to follow up the Green Paper with a proposal for a directive on mental health in Europe and the defence of and respect for the civil and fundamental rights of persons suffering from mental disorders; |
|
60. |
Urges the EU and ACP countries to work closely on investing in good mental health through development and Cotonou policies; |
|
61. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the governments of the Member States, the acceding and the candidate countries, the ACP countries and WHO-Europe. |

Simplifying and improving the Common Fisheries Policy (2006-2008)
European Parliament resolution on the 2006-2008 Action Plan for simplifying and improving the Common Fisheries Policy (2006/2053(INI))
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to the Communication from the Commission to the Council and the European Parliament entitled ‘2006-2008 Action Plan for simplifying and improving the Common Fisheries Policy’ (COM(2005)0647), |
|
— |
having regard to the Commission Communication entitled ‘Perspectives for simplifying and improving the regulatory environment of the Common Fisheries Policy’ (COM(2004)0820) and the Commission staff working document entitled ‘Analysis of the possibilities of simplification and improvement of the regulatory environment of the Common Fisheries Policy and of its implementation’ (SEC(2004)1596), |
|
— |
having regard to the Commission Communication to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions entitled ‘Implementing the Community Lisbon Programme: a strategy for the simplification of the regulatory environment’ (COM (2005)0535), |
|
— |
having regard to the Council conclusions of 15 April 2005 concerning the Commission Communication entitled ‘Perspectives for simplifying and improving the regulatory environment of the Common Fisheries Policy’ (8077/2005), |
|
— |
having regard to the interinstitutional agreement on better law-making which was concluded on 16 December 2003 by the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission (1), |
|
— |
having regard to Rule 45 of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
— |
having regard to the report of the Committee on Fisheries (A6-0228/2006), |
|
A. |
whereas improving and simplifying the legislative environment with a view to making it more efficient and transparent is a priority task for the European Union which will benefit ordinary people and help to increase competitiveness, growth and sustainable development, thereby contributing to the achievement of the Lisbon objectives, |
|
B. |
whereas administrative bodies in the Member States and those who work in the fisheries sector deplore the dispersal and the juxtaposition of measures, the lack of clarity and accessibility in the case of existing texts and the difficulties stemming from the administrative burden created by a multitude of requirements, some of which are superfluous, |
|
C. |
whereas the task of simplifying the rules governing the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) calls for the extensive involvement of fishermen and of the other parties concerned, |
|
D. |
whereas the fishing industry must be consulted within deadlines which will allow its effective participation and upstream involvement in the decision-making process, |
|
E. |
whereas the effectiveness of the CFP is closely linked to the introduction of a harmonised inspection and monitoring system applicable to all who work in the fisheries sector, |
|
1. |
Warmly welcomes this sectoral action plan designed to simplify and improve the CFP; |
|
2. |
Fully supports the objectives established by the Commission, in particular those concerned with making existing texts simpler, clearer and more accessible, reducing the workload and the administrative costs shouldered by the administrative bodies responsible for fisheries, and reducing the burdens and the restrictions imposed on fishermen; |
|
3. |
Welcomes the methodology proposed by the Commission, in particular the drawing up of a three-year action plan covering the 2006-2008 period; |
|
4. |
Agrees with the Commission's view that simplification efforts must focus on conservation policy and the monitoring of fishing activities; |
|
5. |
Considers that there must genuinely be more extensive pre-legislative consultation of all the parties affected by the measures envisaged and that such consultation should be carried out as far as possible at an early stage, in order to enable the interested parties to make an effective contribution to the preparatory work prior to any legislative proposal; |
|
6. |
Considers that all legislative proposals must be preceded by impact analyses and that the latter must be based on accurate, objective and comprehensive information and must be made public at the appropriate time; |
|
7. |
Considers that there must be an adequate period of time between the date of adoption and the date of implementation of any new rules, in order to enable the parties concerned to adapt; |
|
8. |
Considers that regulatory texts must be drawn up more precisely and in a way that can be understood by stakeholders; |
|
9. |
Considers that assessments concerning the effectiveness and the implementation of the measures adopted must be carried out systematically on the basis of objective and clearly defined indicators; |
|
10. |
Insists that the advisory bodies (in particular the Regional Advisory Councils and the Advisory Committee on Fisheries and Aquaculture) must play an integral role in the process of simplification and of assessing the effectiveness and implementation of existing and new measures; considers that closer consultation with these bodies would undoubtedly result in those involved in the fisheries sector identifying more closely with fisheries legislation; |
|
11. |
Considers that the legal structure of the provisions relating to technical measures, to fisheries management measures, to monitoring measures and to catch limits must be revised with a particular view to clarifying texts, making them more consistent and easier to read, deleting obsolete provisions and both condensing and consolidating the provisions relating to each aspect of the CFP; |
|
12. |
Supports the simplification guidelines set out in the action plan for regulating the total allowable catches (TACs)/quotas and the fishing effort, in particular the separate treatment of the various existing components, the targeting of decisions at uniform groups and the development of multiannual approaches; |
|
13. |
Welcomes the Commission's intention to reform existing legislation by gradually bringing together technical measures relating to each fishery, whilst at the same time clarifying the provisions in force and ensuring that the rules as a whole are more consistent and better coordinated; |
|
14. |
Rejects the possibility outlined by the Commission of submitting a ‘short’ regulation on technical measures to the Council, which would be followed by detailed Commission regulations, since such vital aspects as the body of technical measures by which the Community fleet is to be governed cannot be removed from debate and approval by the European Parliament and the Council; |
|
15. |
Takes the view that special attention should be paid to the possibility whereby the Member States may be authorised to adopt certain locally applicable technical measures; considers that, with a view to preventing such arrangements from having an adverse environmental impact, the use thereof should be periodically assessed; |
|
16. |
Notes that Article 9 of Council Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 of 20 December 2002 on the conservation and sustainable exploitation of fisheries resources under the Common Fisheries Policy (2) already permits Member States to adopt non-discriminatory measures for the conservation and management of fisheries resources and to minimise the effect of fishing on the conservation of marine eco-systems within 12 nautical miles of their baselines; urges that the Commission proceed cautiously with any extension of this principle, as an authorisation to adopt certain locally applicable technical measures could result in the emergence of discriminatory conditions in the Member States concerned; |
|
17. |
Approves of the development on a case-by-case basis of targeted approaches for individual regions or individual fisheries, duly based on scientific resource-protection criteria and thorough socio-economic impact analyses, and considers that all the parties concerned should be closely involved in the development of such approaches; |
|
18. |
Considers that the recovery and management plans proposed by the Commission as part of the CFP need to be made flexible in line with the actual circumstances for fishing in the various Member States; |
|
19. |
Approves of the increased use of computers, of information technologies and of automation in order to facilitate access to Community legislation and to facilitate and rationalise the collection and the transfer of data intended both for administrators in the Member States and for people who work in the sector; |
|
20. |
Considers that information on legislation must not be forwarded only through institutional channels but must also reach the interested parties directly, in particular through associations, Regional Advisory Councils, the Internet and the drafting of codes of conduct; |
|
21. |
Considers that the use of new technologies on board fishing vessels should be increased gradually, with exemptions to be made in the case of the smallest vessels and with sufficiently long transition periods to be established in order to enable the sector to adapt; |
|
22. |
Considers that Community aid should be granted for the development of the new technologies and for the specific training required; |
|
23. |
Considers that the provisions concerning all aspects relating to the monitoring and surveillance of fishing activities must be consolidated and recast; |
|
24. |
Calls upon the Commission to revise the Community provisions relating to minimum sizes with a view to harmonising them; |
|
25. |
States once again that a harmonised inspection and monitoring system applicable to all who work in the sector and accompanied by a uniform set of interpretation provisions and penalty procedures should be established as a matter of urgency in order to bolster fishermen's trust in the basic principle of equal treatment; considers that the Community Fisheries Monitoring Agency should contribute to the achievement of this objective; |
|
26. |
Welcomes the general principle concerning the rationalisation of the reporting requirements imposed on the Member States and on the sector but emphasises the crucial role played by certain Commission reports, in particular those which serve to monitor the implementation of the CFP; |
|
27. |
Considers that the administration of authorisations outside Community waters (and of catch and effort data relating to such activities) should be clarified, improved and computerised, and welcomes the initiatives which the Commission has already undertaken in this area; |
|
28. |
Agrees with the Commission that the complex and lengthy procedures applied by the European Union in order to transpose the provisions adopted by Regional Fisheries Organisations into Community legislation are completely undesirable, but takes the view that most of the complexity in transposition stems from excessive bureaucracy within the Commission itself and therefore categorically rejects the possibility that any simplification process should be carried out at the expense of robbing the European Parliament of its responsibilities as regards intervening in legislative procedures; |
|
29. |
Calls, furthermore, upon the Commission to finalise a ‘standard agreement’ for the two main categories of fisheries partnership agreement (mixed and tuna) on the basis of which the rights and the obligations of the two parties (Community and third country) will be enshrined; |
|
30. |
Considers that the process of negotiating and monitoring fisheries partnership agreements should be reworked and simplified as a matter of priority and welcomes the efforts which the Commission has recently made in this area; |
|
31. |
Is willing to contribute actively to the effort required to implement the simplification process and calls for an on-going interinstitutional dialogue on better law-making in relation to the CFP; |
|
32. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council and the Commission. |

EC-Albania agreement
European Parliament resolution on the conclusion of the Stabilisation and Association Agreement between the European Communities and their Member States and the Republic of Albania
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to the Stabilisation and Association Agreement (SAA) between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Albania, of the other part (COM(2006)0138), |
|
— |
having regard to the Commission's Progress Report on Albania in the context of the Stabilisation and Association Process of 9 November 2005 (SEC(2005)1421), |
|
— |
having regard to the Commission's Enlargement Strategy Paper of 9 November 2005 (COM(2005) 0561) and to the European Parliament's resolution of 16 March 2006 on the Commission's 2005 enlargement strategy paper (1), |
|
— |
having regard to its position of 6 September 2006 on this subject (2), |
|
— |
having regard to Rule 103(2) of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
A. |
whereas Albania fulfils the conditions to enter into the SAA with the European Communities and their Member States, |
|
B. |
whereas the SAA will replace the 1992 Agreement on Trade and Commercial and Economic Cooperation, |
|
C. |
whereas the conclusion of the SAA with Albania places relations between the European Union and Albania on a new contractual basis that provides new opportunities for Albania to promote the rule of law, strengthen its democratic institutions, contribute to its stability, which is of the utmost importance for the whole region, and deepen cooperation with the European Union, |
|
D. |
whereas the Thessaloniki European Council of 19 and 20 June 2003 reiterated its determination to fully and effectively support the European perspective of the Western Balkan countries, which will become an integral part of the EU once they meet the established criteria, |
|
E. |
whereas Albania is still facing serious challenges in tackling corruption and organised crime, achieving full implementation of adopted legislation, improving public administration and fighting trafficking in human beings and drugs, |
|
F. |
whereas the last parliamentary elections in Albania were criticised as being not wholly in line with OSCE/ODIHR commitments and other international standards for democratic elections, |
|
1. |
Welcomes the SAA, which holds out the prospect of a close and far-reaching contractual relationship between the EU and Albania and which will be instrumental in achieving political, economic and institutional stability in the country as well as in the whole region and in promoting the transformation of Albania into a pluralist democracy respecting the rule of law, with a functioning market economy; |
|
2. |
Believes that progress in achieving the standards laid down in the SAA should be monitored by means of concrete measurable benchmarks by the SAA Council and the relevant joint parliamentary committee; |
|
3. |
Draws attention to the long-term benefits of the SAA for both the Albanian people and the EU; notes that the major advantages of the SAA lie in the achievement of the goal of a complete free trade area and the establishment of a clear legal commitment to cooperation in the areas of common concern, as well as the promotion of a more stable legal environment for investors; |
|
4. |
Urges the EU and Albania to use the SAA as a mutually beneficial opportunity; furthermore advises Albania to exploit the opportunity to find its own niche on the European market and develop competitiveness in targeted sectors; |
|
5. |
Recommends that Albania focus more strongly on developing its economic potential, not least through the improvement and possibly the expansion of its existing transport infrastructure and the development of environmentally and socially sustainable tourism; regrets the recent cuts in external action assistance as provided for in the Financial Framework; calls on the Commission to earmark sufficient funds for the improvement of the country's infrastructure, in particular for the development of public transport; |
|
6. |
Confirms, in line with the conclusions of the Thessaloniki European Council of 19 and 20 June 2003, its full support for Albania's European perspective and future integration into the European family; believes, however, that the Albanian commitment to European values and standards is first and foremost for its own benefit and should also be pursued as a goal in itself; |
|
7. |
Notes the reforms Albania has undertaken in order to create a state based on principles of democracy, the rule of law, the free market economy and the protection of human rights and good governance; stresses, however, that Albania needs to expand these reforms and show more tangible results, in line with the provisions set out in the European Partnership, and establish a sustained record of successful implementation of the SAA in order to move to a further stage in European integration; is particularly concerned about the lack of substantial progress as regards full implementation of adopted laws; considers it vital to considerably strengthen administrative capacity, to reform the judiciary and strengthen its independence, to protect women's rights, to fight organised crime and to promote media freedom, while the media themselves should strive for transparency; |
|
8. |
Notes that the government has committed itself to cracking down on organised crime, including the decision to ban the use of speedboats in order to combat trafficking in human beings and drug smuggling, but insists that Albania must demonstrate further substantial progress in combating all forms of organised crime, in particular trafficking in women and children for the purposes of sexual exploitation, exploitation at work or compelling them to beg, as a prerequisite for intensified cooperation with the EU; calls on the Commission to continue and reinforce its support to the Albanian authorities in this regard; |
|
9. |
Notes the efforts of the government in the fight against corruption and organised crime; observes that corruption is one of the main obstacles to the economic and social development of Albania and therefore expects the government's campaign to continue to show tangible results; is of the opinion that corruption has no political colour and should be fought irrespective of any political affiliation; |
|
10. |
Encourages Albanian governmental bodies to empower civil society by providing it with greater opportunities to participate in the formulation of policy and in the monitoring of its implementation and effectiveness at all levels of government, to improve the quality and credibility of reform, as well as to increase transparency and accountability; |
|
11. |
Notes with respect the efforts undertaken by the Education Minister to reform the education sector but urges the government to guarantee equal education opportunities for children all over the country; |
|
12. |
Stresses that there are still significant violations of human rights in Albania which should be addressed; urges the Albanian Government to implement the necessary reforms to give detainees access to defence in legal proceedings and to combat torture, brutality or inhuman or degrading treatment; calls on the government to carry out the relevant legislative reforms required for the full implementation of the 2003 Family Code, particularly as regards making domestic violence a criminal offence; |
|
13. |
Reiterates its call on the Commission to help Albania to put an end to the persistence of the ‘blood feud’, which constitutes a failure of the rule of law and is fundamentally at odds with European values; |
|
14. |
Notes that the current electoral system was used during the last parliamentary elections in 2005 to distort the principle of proportionality, also known as the ‘Dushk phenomenon’, and urges the Albanian Government and Parliament to further reform the system before the forthcoming local elections following the recommendations formulated by the OSCE/ODIHR, in particular as regards the accuracy of voter lists and of civil registers; |
|
15. |
Calls on Albania to make further efforts to protect minority rights, including the rights of the Greek minority in Albania, and to complete and implement its minority-related legislation so that it supports the implementation of the relevant international conventions ratified by Albania; observes that further efforts are needed, in particular, as regards increasing the use of minority languages in citizens' dealings with the authorities and the display of traditional local names, improving access to the media for members of minority groups and extending minority language education; notes the shortage of accurate statistical information on national minorities; |
|
16. |
Expresses its concern at the recent threats by the opposition to boycott the forthcoming local elections; calls, in this respect, on all parties to act in a responsible manner, making every effort to reach an agreement on delicate issues such as the law governing the media and the list of voters; |

Welcomes the positive and constructive role that Albania has played in multilateral regional initiatives; underlines, however, the need to continue to promote regional cooperation and good neighbourly relations with regard to key issues affecting South East Europe, such as cross-border cooperation, the free movement of persons, fighting organised crime and trafficking, establishing a free trade area capable of attracting foreign investment, sharing environmental resources and developing integrated trans-border networks; |
|
18. |
Takes the view that, on account of economic under-development, Albania should devote special attention to developing economic cooperation in the region, in particular with its direct neighbours; considers that Montenegrin independence, the negotiations on the future status of Kosovo, and the opening of negotiations on EU membership with the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia in the near future should be seen as additional opportunities for economic cooperation and development in Albania and the region as a whole; |
|
19. |
Takes the view that Albania has a particularly important role to play in the stabilisation of South East Europe with regard, in particular, to the final status of Kosovo; urges the Albanian Government and its leaders to continue to adopt a constructive approach in this respect; |
|
20. |
Underlines the importance of the Union's assistance missions for capacity building and welcomes the results achieved by the police assistance mission (Pameca), customs assistance mission (EU-CAFAO Albania) and the judicial assistance mission (Euralius); taking into account the extensiveness and complexity of the fight against organised crime in the Western Balkans, calls on the Commission to substantially increase and strengthen EU assistance in the police (Pameca) and rule of law (Euralius) area; calls on the EU and Albania in this context to take advantage, by means of twinning and secondment programmes, of the extensive knowledge and experience gained by the new Member States in reforming their societies and economies in the EU integration process, in particular as regards adopting and implementing the legislation on land and property restitution, including for religious communities, and strengthening the border guard and customs authorities; |
|
21. |
Welcomes the conclusion of the readmission agreement with Albania in November 2005 and calls for a visa facilitation agreement between the EU and Albania within the framework of visa facilitation for all the countries of the Western Balkans in order to facilitate cross-border exchanges for the business community, social partners, academia and students as a first step; stresses, however, that the ultimate objective must be to facilitate travel for all citizens; |
|
22. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission and the Government and Parliament of the Republic of Albania. |

Miscellaneous
Amendment 44 added a sentence to the end of the original text of paragraph 7 of the report, which now reads as follows:
7. Considers that balanced economic development is of great importance to both China and the EU; underlines the fact that stagnation of the Chinese economy due to uncontrolled growth is a serious threat both to China's internal stability and to the wellbeing of the global economy; recognises that rapid economic growth in China presents a huge challenge to global efforts to tackle climate change, with CO2 emissions from coal-fired power stations set to double by 2030;
Charles Tannock moved an oral amendment to insert a paragraph after paragraph 53:
53a. Calls upon the Chinese authorities to reveal the whereabouts of human rights lawyer Gao Zhisheng and to release him unless he is to be charged with a recognised criminal offence; similarly calls for the release of Chen Guangcheng, who has helped citizens in their attempts to sue their local authorities for carrying out forced abortions and sterilisations, and of Bu Dongwei, who has been assigned to two and a half years of ‘Re-education through Labour’ (RTL) and who is detained at an undisclosed location; therefore urges the authorities to ensure that all human rights defenders can carry out peaceful and legitimate activities without fear of arbitrary arrest, torture or ill-treatment and that they be given access to proper legal representation in the event of arrest;

— |
having regard to the report of the Committee on Foreign Affairs and the opinion of the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs (A6-0257/2006), |
|
A. |
whereas the EU-China Strategic Partnership is of great importance for relations between the EU and China, and whereas a genuine strategic partnership must be based on shared common values, |
|
B. |

|
C. |
whereas, apart from democratic values, credibility, stability and responsibility should constitute the fundamental basis of the relationship between the EU and China, |
|
D. |
whereas the strengthening of the EU's relationship with China will be crucial in meeting global challenges such as climate change, security and the non-proliferation of arms, |
|
E. |
whereas China in itself constitutes the biggest challenge of trade globalisation and whereas it is experiencing a huge economic boom, with estimated growth rates of around 9% per annum, |
|
F. |
whereas China's vigorous economic development, coupled not least with its permanent membership of the UN Security Council and its membership of the World Trade Organization (WTO), compels the country to shoulder a growing international responsibility, |

whereas ‘sectoral dialogues’ between the EU and China have grown considerably in recent years, |
|
H. |

|
J. |
whereas 70 % of all counterfeit goods seized on the European market come from China, and whereas every year nearly five million counterfeit garments and accessories are confiscated by the customs services, |
|
K. |
whereas Market Economy Status (MES) is an economic instrument rather than a political instrument; whereas China has to improve its performance in order to obtain MES, |

|
O. |
whereas during the session of the 10th National People's Congress (5-14 March 2006) a spokesman for the Supreme People's Court declared that China will not abolish the internationally criticised death penalty because the People's Republic of China (PRC) is still a developing country in the early phase of socialism, |
|
P. |
whereas the number of executions carried out is a state secret in China, although, according to estimates given by Chinese jurists, about 8 000 people die in this way each year, |
|
Q. |
whereas in 2005 the Chinese security authorities registered 87,000 ‘incidents with a massive turnout’, an increase of 6,6% over 2004, |
|
R. |
whereas, according to warnings from indigenous social scientists, the Chinese leadership's policies for a harmonious society and the construction of new socialist villages reflect the current dangerous transition phase of the PRC to a market economy, |
|
S. |
whereas the PRC introduced a ‘one-child’ policy in 1976, which is currently being debated under the intriguing title ‘Will China grow old before getting rich?’, |
|

|
Y. |
whereas, nearly a decade after the initial request was made, a visit to the PRC by the United Nations Special Rapporteur on Torture finally materialised in the period from 20 November to 2 December 2005; whereas, however, the UN Special Rapporteur on Freedom of Religion or Belief has not been received for a follow-up visit to that made to China by his predecessor in November 1994, and whereas China has failed to issue a standing invitation to all the thematic procedures of the UN Commission on Human Rights, |
|
Z. |
whereas, in its Global Appeal 2006, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) continues to call on the PRC for the issuance of appropriate national refugee regulations, and for increased access to asylum seekers from the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea) who may be in need of international protection, |

|
AI. |
whereas the causes of the worsening bilateral relationship between China and Japan are political, not economic, |
|
AJ. |

|
AK. |
whereas China's engagement and influence in Africa have increased considerably over the last decade, |

EU-China cooperation
|
1. |
Looks forward to the advent of the EU-China Strategic Partnership and the closer cooperation which this will entail on a wide range of issues; urges the Council and the Commission to formulate a consistent and coherent policy towards China; |
|
2. |
Welcomes the work of the Commission in the sectoral dialogues with China, which currently cover a wide range of issues, ranging from environmental issues to social affairs and human rights, and requests that Parliament be briefed at regular intervals on progress made; |
|
3. |
Calls on China and the EU to establish their partnership and bilateral relationship on the basis of mutual openness and on the fundamental basis of credibility, stability responsibility and mutual understanding; urges both China and the EU to improve their cooperation on this basis in order to play a stable, responsible and credible role within the international community; |
|
4. |
Regrets that increased trade and economic relations with China have brought about no substantial progress in the field of democracy, human rights and the rule of law, which are basic components of the political dialogue between China and the EU; takes the view, in this respect, that the development of trade relations with China must go hand in hand with the development of a genuine, fruitful and effective political dialogue; |
Economic situation
|
5. |
Notes that the EU, after enlargement, overtook Japan to become China's largest trading partner and that, at the same time, China rose from being the EU's third trading partner to become its second largest, after the US; |
|
6. |
Notes that in 2005, the Chinese trade balance amounted to USD 102 billion, which is more than twice as much as in the previous bench-mark year (USD 32 billion); that in 2005, currency reserves amounted to approximately USD 819 billion — an increase of USD 209 billion compared to the previous year; that if this trend continues, China is likely to have at its disposal over USD 1 000 billion in foreign reserves at the end of 2006, making it the world's largest holder of foreign currency; that initial predictions for 2006 point to a capital inflow of some USD 50 billion, primarily in long-term direct private investments; welcomes in this connection the fact that China has started to relax pegging its currency (Renminbi) to the US dollar and is thus not opposed to a possible currency revaluation; considers that warnings about insufficient risk surcharges for lending operations should be taken seriously; |
|
7. |
Takes note of China's rapid economic development, making it the world's fourth biggest economy in dollar terms, even at its current undervalued rate; accordingly calls on the Commission to exert political and economic pressure aimed at bringing flexibility to bear on the exchange rate of the Chinese currency, which is being pegged at an artificially low value, a situation that runs counter to gradual world trade liberalisation; calls on China to gradually float its exchange rate; calls on China to replace the fixed linking of its currency to the dollar with a linkage to a basket of currencies including the euro; |
|
8. |
Is concerned about the development of inequality and unfair distribution of wealth, mass unemployment and uncontrolled urbanisation, the rising crime rate and corruption and not least the environmental problems of China; |
|
9. |
Recognises that China is more than a fast-growing market; underlines the fact that the on-going technological revolution of a country of this size has huge implications in a global economy; |
|
10. |
Considers that balanced economic development is of great importance to both China and the EU; underlines the fact that stagnation of the Chinese economy due to uncontrolled growth is a serious threat both to China's internal stability and to the wellbeing of the global economy; recognises that rapid economic growth in China presents a huge challenge to global efforts to tackle climate change, with CO2 emissions from coal-fired power stations set to double by 2030; |
|
11. |
Welcomes the fact that in autumn 2006 the Commission took the initiative of publishing a strategy paper on the Union's long-term economic and trade relations with China in order to anticipate more adequately the impact of China's economic rise and to avoid ad hoc decision-making, thus helping to ensure that China will no longer be considered a threat, but be perceived as a challenge and an evolving partner; |
|
12. |
Stresses that an increasingly positive trade relationship should also result in human rights reforms and recognises that, until there is a legally binding code of conduct on arms exports and until the situation regarding human rights and civil and political freedoms — including the Tiananmen Square issue — has been properly addressed, the EU should not lift the arms embargo; |
|
13. |
Calls on China to develop a solid and credible investment climate for foreign trade and industry and to give absolute priority to improving legal security for foreign companies; |
|
14. |
Reminds China that a further opening of its markets to foreign companies and investment, especially in the telecommunications, banking and financial services sectors, is to be seen as an integral part of the strategic partnership; calls on China to reform its market and its economic system accordingly, and to comply more rigorously with the anti-dumping rules and enforce them more strictly; |
|
15. |
In the light of the findings of the anti-dumping investigation in the footwear sector, which proved that China had been practising State intervention and social dumping, and of the steps taken by the Commission to correct this distortion of competition, urges the Union to make its trading partners, such as China, comply with fair and equitable international trade rules; calls on the Commission, when considering, as it is shortly due to do, how the anti-dumping measures should be used, to simplify the procedures so that anti-dumping mechanisms can be employed more readily by SMEs; furthermore, calls for the anti-dumping procedure to be made more transparent; |
|
16. |
Takes the view that, within the framework of efforts to modernise and liberalise the Chinese banking system, the EU should continue to work closely with the Chinese authorities with a view to adopting international accounting standards and the Basel II standards, which would ensure greater security for EU investors; |
|
17. |
Welcomes the rapid modernisation of the Chinese financial sector; stresses, however, the utmost importance of ensuring a smooth transition so as to avoid any financial instability with possible repercussions across global financial markets; suggests, in particular, that a ‘race to the bottom’ involving harmful regulatory competition between global financial marketplaces should be avoided; suggests, on the contrary, that major regulators worldwide should promote standards of the highest quality; recalls that the EU itself is committed to the global convergence of standards in the areas of accounting (International Financial Reporting Standards), audit (International Standards on Auditing), capital requirements for credit institutions (Basel II), money laundering and the fight against financing terrorism (Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering (FATF) recommendations) and securities market regulation (International Organization of Securities Commissions standards); points out that the EU would be ready to offer its experience and assistance to the Chinese authorities to implement convergence where necessary; |
|
18. |
Considers that China is faced with considerable regional development disparities and more general income disparities, and that the new Chinese leadership must commit itself to tackling these problems with the help and expertise of the Commission; |
|
19. |
Calls on China to use a transparent and fair procedure in the award of public procurement contracts which gives foreign undertakings equal opportunities to participate; |
|
20. |
Considers that the pirating and counterfeiting of European products and brands by Chinese industries constitutes a serious violation of international trading rules; urges China to considerably improve the protection of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) with regard to both Chinese and foreign inventions; calls on China to uphold current laws regarding the protection of IPR; welcomes the creation of an IPR chair at the University of Beijing; |
|
21. |
Recognises the importance of MES for China; underlines, however, the fact that MES is an economic rather than a political instrument; urges China to reduce state interference in the economy and to improve its performance as regards its uneven compliance with corporate governance and accounting systems and its ineffective bankruptcy framework; |
|
22. |
Notes that the recent problems in the footwear sector show the need for China to adopt a more adequate anti-dumping policy; stresses the urgency of such a policy in the light of China's WTO membership; |
|
23. |
Calls on the Council and the Commission to recognise that the difficulties faced by the textile, clothing, and footwear sectors are systemic, and calls on the Commission, when revising its economic and trade strategy in relation to China, to correct the current imbalances and anticipate the challenges; |
|
24. |
Calls on China to adopt an economic policy based more on social (education, health, pensions, etc.) and household consumption and less on investment and exports; |
|
25. |
Calls on the Commission to support the Chinese authorities in their campaign against intellectual property rights violations and product piracy; |
Internal situation
|
26. |
Shares the view that the future development of China is currently difficult to predict and will mainly depend on domestic issues such as the further smooth development of the economy and the gradual improvement of the living standards of the majority of the population; |
|
27. |
Wholly agrees with the conclusion in the above-mentioned White Paper that the concept of democracy and awareness of legal concepts inside the whole of Chinese society will need subsequent strengthening; |
|
28. |
Underlines the fact that the rapid socio-economic modernisation of the PRC should be combined with the necessary political pluralism and institutional modernisation and that it can amply nurture itself from indigenous sources such as the works of the liberal reformers of the late 19th century, and especially the basic thinking of Sun Yat-sen; |
|
29. |
Notes that social security, health and safety in the workplace, the right to form trade unions, industrial relations and social dialogue represent major challenges for China's future; calls on China to ratify key International Labour Organization Conventions, particularly Convention 87 concerning Freedom of Association and Protection of the Right to Organise and 98 on Collective Bargaining and to comply with the framework provisions of the International Labour Organization regarding effective measures to combat all forms of modern slavery, child labour and exploitation, particularly of female workers, so as to ensure respect for the fundamental rights of workers and discourage social dumping; invites the Commission to intensify and to report back regularly on the structured dialogue with its Chinese counterparts in these fields; |
|
30. |
Takes the view that the denial of the right to form independent trade unions is counter-productive in the light of the increasing protests and demonstrations by workers throughout China against forced lay-offs, unpaid wages and other benefits, official corruption and mismanagement; therefore calls on the Chinese government to recognise and to guarantee the basic right to freedom of expression and association and the right to strike; |
|
31. |
Draws attention to the increasing problem of child labour in China and the adverse working conditions faced by child workers in the country despite the fact that child labour is prohibited under Chinese labour law; therefore urges the Chinese authorities not only to improve the enforcement of the law but also to tackle the root causes of the problem of child labour, such as growing economic disparities, the rapidly changing social structure and the failure of the educational system to provide adequate and affordable education for all children; |
|
32. |
Expresses its concern about the appalling socio-economic discrimination against China's 150 million migrant labourers from the countryside, takes note of the measures taken by the Chinese government to solve the problem, signalled by the new government guidelines officially published on 28 March 2006, and expresses its intention to follow the results of the implementation of this new policy carefully; |
|
33. |
Calls on the European Union to continue to keep the situation in Macao and Hong Kong under careful review and hopes that the encouraging aspects of the two experiences will serve as an example and a stimulus to move the Chinese political process forward; |
|
34. |
Postulates that as long as the CCP is not subjected to the order of a constitutional state, the party will remain a state within the state and thus very vulnerable to serious instances of abuse of power such as the national evil of cadre corruption, such a situation undermining the chances of creating a society based on the rule of law; |
|
35. |
Joins its voice to the criticism, expressed in Chinese lawyers' journals, that Article 126 of the Chinese Constitution should also include a prohibition on interference by the CCP or the Chinese Government in the course of justice; |
|
36. |
Expects fresh efforts to be made to strengthen the independence of the judiciary, and trusts that the gradual replacement of unqualified judges by competent jurists will curb the endemic corruption inside the judiciary and thus enhance popular trust in this fundamental state institution; |
|
37. |
Welcomes the promise made by the President of the Supreme People's Court at the 10th National People's Congress that from July 2006 appeals against sentences imposing the death penalty will be conducted in open court; expects this promise to be acted upon; |
|
38. |
Urges China to abolish the death penalty and declare an effective moratorium in respect of persons already sentenced; takes note of the significant signal given by Chinese jurists that the death penalty should be imposed only in cases of serious, violent crimes, by contrast with the present situation, in which 68 offences are punishable by the death penalty, of which half do not involve capital offences; is concerned that China carries out far more executions than any other country in the world; calls on China to release its official figures for executions in the year 2005/2006; |
|
39. |
Strongly supports the demand made by Professor Liu Renwen, jurist and member of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, for the illegal trade in the organs of executed people to be brought to an end, by imposing strict provisions and controls; |
|
40. |
Is seriously concerned about the harsh action taken by the authorities against ‘agitators’; notes that, according to a Blue Paper emanating from the Beijing Academy of Social Sciences, reasons for mass protests have included especially grave environmental problems that have endangered the health and existence of many farmers in newly industrialised regions, and also shameful expropriations of farmland for building purposes, not to mention the arbitrariness and corruption of local authorities; |
|
41. |
Welcomes the intention of the Chinese Government to bridge the growing income gap between the populations of the coastal regions and of the countryside, to tackle serious environmental problems, to demonstrate better stewardship of natural resources and to develop and stimulate more efficient technologies; |
|
42. |
Draws attention to the impact of China's economic growth on natural resources and on the local and global environment notably as a result of CO2 emissions; calls on the Chinese Government to take all the necessary measures to protect the environment and in particular to ensure supplies of drinking water for the populace and take action in response to atmospheric pollution, and to conserve biodiversity; calls for an intensive dialogue between China and the European Union on natural resources and the environment; |
|
43. |
Urges the authorities to supervise their investment programmes in favour of the countryside very carefully, in the light of the fear expressed by Chinese researchers that local party cadres interpret references to ‘new villages’ as a call for building projects at the expense of the farmers, and in view of the established fact that, hitherto, only one fifth of state subsidies for the agrarian sector has actually reached the farmers entitled thereto; |
|
44. |
Is very concerned about recent reports of continuing serious human rights abuses in Tibetan areas of China, including torture, arbitrary arrest and detention, house arrest and other non-judicial surveillance of dissidents, detention without public trial, repression of religious freedom and arbitrary restrictions on free movement; is deeply concerned about the intensification of the so-called ‘patriotic education’ campaign since October 2005 in Tibet's monasteries and nunneries, forcing Tibetans to sign declarations denouncing the Dalai Lama as a dangerous separatist and proclaiming Tibet to be ‘part of China’, including the arrest of monks from the Drepung Monastery in November 2005 for refusing to denounce the Dalai Lama; calls upon China to allow an independent body to have access to Gedhun Choekyi Nyima, the Panchen Lama of Tibet, and his parents, as requested by the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child; calls upon the Chinese Government to intensify its positive engagement in substantive negotiations regarding the demands of the Dalai Lama for autonomy for Tibet; |
|
45. |
Takes note that China's ‘one-child’ policy has resulted in an imbalance in population distribution; urges China to recognise the fact that the future balance between the working and the non-working parts of the population will have huge economic effects; underlines the fact that the EU is also confronted with the problem of ageing; calls on China to rethink the concrete implementation of its ‘one-child’ policy in order to tackle the economic and social disadvantages inherent in that policy; |
|
46. |
Urges the Chinese authorities to provide for measures in national legislation to protect the welfare of, and prevent cruelty to, animals, especially as regards the rearing of animals farmed for their fur; urges China to stop the abuse of animals for purposes of traditional medicine, as exemplified by the use of rhinoceros horn and bear bile; |
Human rights
|
47. |
Underlines the fact that the upholding of basic rights by the PRC requires the setting-up of a Constitutional Court, without which constitutional amendments, such as that of March 2004 on human rights, remain largely symbolic; |
|
48. |
Stresses that Chinese citizens should have a legal entitlement to their basic rights, and urges courts to fully address clear iniquities on the basis of the Constitution, thereby pursuing a healthy judicial process that is now, little by little, gaining momentum; |
|
49. |
Draws attention to the need for the state to abstain from regulating religion and expressions thereof; affirms the need, particularly in the light of the discussions among Chinese officials about the definition of ‘religion’ and especially ‘legal religion’, for a comprehensive law on religion meeting international standards and guaranteeing genuine religious freedom; |
|
50. |
Deplores the contradiction between the constitutional freedom of belief (enshrined in Article 36 of the Constitution) and the ongoing interference of the State in the affairs of religious communities, in particular as regards the training, selection, appointment and political indoctrination of ministers of religion; deplores especially the fact that the State accords the right of legal existence to only five religions and, moreover, places them under the control of the corresponding Chinese ‘patriotic’ religious associations, protecting only ‘normal’ (zhengchang) religious activities and making their official registration subject to acceptance of the principles underlying the umbrella organization the ‘Three Autonomies’; |
|
51. |
Calls on the Council to inform it regarding the measures taken to follow up the declaration made in its above-mentioned resolution of 8 September 2005 regarding the fates of various bishops incarcerated in the PRC for their religious convictions; moreover, calls on the PRC's authorities to release forthwith all members of the Christian Church who are still unfairly incarcerated and persecuted; |
|
52. |
Notes that there are currently more Christians across China worshipping in ‘illegal’ places of worship (whether at Protestant house-churches or in underground Catholic groups loyal to the Vatican) than attending at ‘patriotic’ places of worship, and that both groups of worshippers, composed as they are of lawabiding citizens, constitute no threat whatever to public security; calls on the Chinese Government to cease its persecution and imprisonment of such Christian groups; maintains that Christians who do not identify with the ‘patriotic churches’ have the right to worship freely; |
|
53. |
Deplores the serious violation of religious freedom brought about by the recent unlawful ordinations of bishops (30 April 2006, Kunming — Yunnan; 3 May 2006, Wuhan — Anhui), stemming not least from the strong pressures and the threats to which the Catholic clergy loyal to the Vatican was subjected by non- Church bodies; |
|
54. |
Considers that the latest ordinations detract from the recent assertions by the Chinese authorities of their willingness to pave the way for a sincere and constructive dialogue between the PRC and the Holy See; points, therefore, to the need to respect the freedom of the Church and preserve the autonomy of its institutions from any external interference, which, as well as finding expression in gestures disavowing the demands negotiated by both sides, undermines confidence in reciprocal dialogue and advances in freedom in China; |
|
55. |
Points out that the UN Special Rapporteur on Torture, after completing his mission, thanked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for its cooperation, but rebuked the Ministries of State Security and Public Security for obstructing or restricting his attempts at fact-finding; |
|
56. |
Is deeply concerned by the statement made by the UN Special Rapporteur on Torture that the practice of torture remains widespread in China, a reprehensible situation that is indeed increasingly recognised by government officials and in reports, and also by the ‘palpable level of fear and self-censorship’ observed by him during interviews with detainees; |
|
57. |
Endorses the preliminary recommendations made by the Special Rapporteur to the Chinese Government, e.g. on reforming criminal law by adding the crime of torture in accordance with the definition contained in the UN Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment, and also establishing an independent complaints mechanism for detainees subjected to torture and ill treatment; |
|
58. |
Calls on the Chinese Government to revise the verdicts handed down for the crime of ‘threatening public security’, given that, in an overwhelming majority of cases, the accused had done no more than courageously exercise their fundamental constitutional rights by openly criticising the policies of the government and the CCP; |
|
59. |
Once again calls on the Government of the PRC to improve the conditions of imprisonment in its jails and to cease and abolish the torture of detainees; |
|
60. |
Regrets that no substantial progress has been made regarding the release of political prisoners incarcerated for their involvement in the Tiananmen Square demonstrations and, similarly, regrets that the Chinese authorities continue to ignore calls for a full and impartial inquiry into the events of 1989; calls for an official reassessment of the Tiananmen Square incident by the Chinese authorities, publication of the list of political prisoners and their unconditional release; |
|
61. |
Deplores the recent crackdown by Chinese officials on defence lawyers aimed at stamping out legal challenges to their authority; calls upon the Chinese authorities to reveal the whereabouts of human rights lawyer Gao Zhisheng, one of China's most outspoken lawyers and dissidents who is held on suspicion of criminal activity, and to release him unless he is to be charged with a recognised criminal offence; similarly calls for the release of Chen Guangcheng, a peasants' rights advocate who has helped citizens in their attempts to sue their local authorities for carrying out forced abortions and sterilisations and who was sentenced to more than four years in prison, and of Bu Dongwei, who has been assigned to two and a half years of ‘Re-education through Labour’ (RTL) and who is detained at an undisclosed location; therefore urges the authorities to ensure that all human rights defenders can carry out peaceful and legitimate activities without fear of arbitrary arrest, torture or ill-treatment and that they be given access to proper legal representation in the event of arrest; |
|
62. |
Joins with the UN Special Rapporteur on Torture, the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention and the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights in urging the Chinese Government to abolish ‘Re-education through Labour’ and similar forms of forced ‘re-education’ of detainees in prisons, pre-trial detention centres and psychiatric hospitals; |
|
63. |
Rejects the nationwide Ankang system of police psychiatry applied to political and social dissidents, which purports to promise ‘health through rest and peace’, but in fact breaks its ‘patients’; admonishes the authorities against extending Ankang from 22 to 125 clinics, but, on the contrary, to erase this national stain; |
|
64. |
Condemns in particular the existence of the Laogai labour camps across the country, in which the PRC detains pro-democracy activists, labour activists and members of minorities without a fair trial, forcing them to work in appalling conditions and without medical treatment; urges China to ratify ILO Conventions 29 and 105 on the Elimination of forced and compulsory labour; calls on China to give a written undertaking in relation to any given exported product that it has not been produced by forced labour in a Laogai camp and, if no such assurance can be given, insists that the Commission prohibit its importation into the EU; |
|
65. |
Calls on the PRC to respect its international obligations under the 1951 Geneva Convention relating to the Status of Refugees and the 1967 Protocol thereto, and to allow the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees full access to North Korean asylum seekers who may be in need of international protection; |
|
66. |
Strongly condemns the detention and torture of Falun Gong practitioners in prisons, ‘Re-education through Labour’ camps, psychiatric hospitals and ‘legal education schools’; is concerned about reports that organs of detained Falun Gong practitioners have been removed and sold to hospitals; urges the Chinese Government to end the detention and torture of Falun Gong practitioners and to release them immediately; |
|
67. |
Expresses its deep disquiet at the numerous violations of women's and girls' rights resulting from forced compliance with the Chinese Government's family planning policy, including selective abortions, forced sterilisations, and the abandonment of girls on a massive scale; |
|
68. |
Urges China without any further delay to ratify and implement the ICCPR; |
|
69. |
Agrees with the important message conveyed in the above-mentioned Reuters/BBC open letter — which was unfortunately withheld from the general public in China — that the current policy of censorship is hampering China's political development; |
|
70. |
Expresses deep disquiet at the current clamp-down in the PRC on freedom of expression and free access to the Internet; repeats its requests to Beijing to refrain from intimidating, cracking down on or imprisoning those who advocate freedom of expression, whether the repression is directed at journalists or human rights activists or whether it makes information impossible to use by blacking out websites that do not conform to state censorship; condemns, therefore, the Internet censorship law passed by the National People's Congress and the existence of systems of Internet censorship collectively known as the ‘Great Firewall of China’; calls in particular for the AsiaNews.it site to be allowed back onto the Web without delay — or in any event no longer be blacked out — bearing in mind that, in addition to being an excellent source of information about Asia and human rights advocacy, it also helps to foster dialogue between the Vatican and the PRC and hence the unity of the Chinese Church; |
|
71. |
Expresses its concern at the irresponsible policies of major Internet firms Yahoo and Google which have bowed directly and indirectly to Chinese Government demands for censorship; |
|
72. |
Calls on the Chinese authorities to re-open the office of the Friedrich Naumann Foundation in Beijing, so as to allow the Foundation to continue its work on development and democracy; |
|
73. |
Recognises the rising influence of China globally but in particular in countries as diverse as Belarus, Venezuela, Sudan, Zimbabwe, Burma/Myanmar, Iran and North Korea, of whose human rights records the EU remains deeply critical; |
|
74. |
Asks the Chinese authorities and the Council to improve the human rights dialogue by introducing simultaneous interpretation at meetings; requests that Members of the European Parliament be more actively involved in the human rights dialogue along with their Chinese parliamentary colleagues; |
|
75. |
Regrets that the authorities in Xinjiang regularly group together individuals or organisations allegedly involved in the ‘three evils’, making it difficult to determine whether particular raids, detentions or judicial punishments are targeted at those peacefully seeking to express their political and religious views or at those who have engaged in violence; regards as counterproductive the destruction by officials of Uighur books with a view to distorting historical facts and advocating ethnic separatism; |
|
76. |
Looks forward to seeing the Chief Executive and all members of the Legislative Council of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region elected by means of an electoral system based on the principles of multi-party democracy, accountability of the government to the legislature and genuinely effective governance, which will confer a clear benefit on all the people of Hong Kong; |
|
77. |
Acknowledges the increasing role that China is playing as a global power on the world stage; in this regard, urges the Chinese government to be fully committed to its growing responsibilities and to actively engage in international organisations and fora so as to promote peace and peaceful conflict-resolution and to support the universal values of democracy, human rights and the rule of law; |
Foreign policy/Relations with neighbours
|
78. |
Draws attention to the concerns of the outside world, especially of Beijing's regional neighbours, concerning the double-digit increase in China's military spending every year since the mid-1990s; strongly recommends — as endorsed by numerous of its resolutions — that the EU arms embargo against China remain intact until greater progress is made on human rights issues; recalls in this context the need to include in further negotiations regarding the European Neighbourhood Policy and the Partnership and Cooperation Agreements, adherence to the EU embargo on arms trading with the PRC; |
|
79. |
Stresses the direct link between the obvious Chinese interest in gaining access to European military high technology and the lifting of the arms embargo against the PRC, a connection with significant consequences for the cohesion of the transatlantic relationship and the market position of the high-tech weapons industry in Europe; |
|
80. |
Expresses concern at the depth of cooperation with China on the Galileo programme and calls for further safeguards to be introduced to ensure that China, or other partners, cannot transfer sensitive technologies used in the programme to military applications; |
|
81. |
Observes that China's Anti-Secession Law of 14 March 2005 and the present stationing of more than 800 missiles on the south-east coast of the PRC facing Taiwan belie the principle of peaceful reunification; calls on China and Taiwan to establish mutual trust and respect and to seek common ground while setting aside differences, to put in place the necessary political basis for a peaceful and steady development of cross- Straits relations, to resume dialogue on those relations and to strengthen economic exchanges and cooperation, making progress in particular on the ‘three direct links’ across the Taiwan Strait (mail, transport and trade); |
|
82. |
Takes the view that, with regard to the possible option of a peaceful reunification process with the Chinese mainland, the will and approval of the 23 million citizens of Taiwan must surely be respected and taken into account, as must Taiwan's territorial sovereignty and integrity, in negotiations with China on Taiwan's status; points out that the beginning of a genuine democratic process in the PRC would help to ease tensions and pave the way for the resumption of a substantive dialogue between the two sides; |
|
83. |
Calls on China to support the possibility of observer status for Taiwan within the World Health Assembly of the World Health Organization, in order to protect the health of the people of Taiwan, of international representatives and foreign employees on the island, and of the entire population of the globe; recalls in this context that infectious diseases such as HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria, SARS and, recently, avian influenza know no borders and require world-wide cooperation — also, and especially, with Taiwan as one of the most important international hubs in the Western Pacific; reiterates its call for Taiwan to be better represented in international fora and organisations, so as to put an end to the on-going unfair exclusion of 23 million people from the international community; |
|
84. |
Concludes that the problematic relationship between Beijing and Tokyo springs from a sense of mutual challenge: Japan feels challenged by China's economic rise and China by Japan's pursuit of a larger and more active political role in the region; calls on each country to refrain from any action which might offend the historic memory or the sensibilities of the other; |
|
85. |
Welcomes the American initiative of starting a strategic dialogue with Europe on China's rise — a central new element in the policy of the ‘new’ world towards the ‘old’ — and encourages the European Union and its Member States to develop a strategic consensus for dealing with China; |
|
86. |
Highlights the global importance of China's existing and emerging energy relations; draws attention to the impact on the global energy market of the increase in China's energy consumption that will accompany its economic growth; calls on the Commission and the Council to include energy issues in their longterm strategy for EU-China relations and to raise this issue in their contacts with China where appropriate; |
|
87. |
Recognizes the special economic importance of the African Continent for the PRC (30 % of its oil imports, a growing market for Chinese military hardware), but also urges the Chinese leadership to uphold China's responsibilities as a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council and to promote good governance, democracy, the rule of law, respect for human rights and conflict prevention in its relations with African states; |
|
88. |
Encourages the authorities in China to play an active role in bringing about respect for human rights and democratic change in Burma/Myanmar; |
|
89. |
Expects the PRC to apply its proclaimed opposition to terrorism and nuclear proliferation in a concrete manner in China's influential relations with Iran; emphasises that a decisive stance by the PRC on Iran would demonstrate China's willingness and ability to take on international responsibility; |
|
90. |
Welcomes China's commitment to the Six-Party Talks, and urges the Chinese Government to do more to promote security and stability in East Asia, particularly on the Korean Peninsula, and to play a more pro-active role in the promotion of democracy and respect for human rights in North Korea; |
Conclusions
|
91. |
Concludes that a credible, stable and responsible economic and trading relationship between the EU and China should be based, on the European side, on the development of a long-term strategy and, on the Chinese side, on the development of a solid investment climate, on improving legal security for foreign firms, on continuing to open its markets and, above all, on observance of fair and equitable trade rules and on implementation of the WTO rules, including compliance with the TRIPs agreements as regards the protection of IPR; |
|
92. |
Underlines the importance of addressing the concept of corporate social responsibility and the need to promote economically, socially and ecologically sustainable development in economic and trading relations between the EU and China; calls on the Commission to take care that these principles are applied; |
|
93. |
Draws the conclusion that China's internal situation should be improved by strengthening the indigenous process of democratisation, increasing the professionalism of the judiciary, completely abolishing the death penalty and above all, by implementing the government's social programme, endorsed by the 10th National People's Congress, in favour of the backward countryside in order to serve the Chinese population and to promote stability in the region, and also by minority protection and cultural diversity, especially in the regions of Tibet and Xinjiang; |
|
94. |
Concludes that a credible and responsible human rights policy can be restored in China only by respecting the basic rights of its citizens, as enshrined in the Constitution of the People's Republic; |
|
95. |
Comes to the conclusion that China can greatly contribute to credible, stable and responsible foreign and neighbourly relations by acknowledging its key position as a serious stakeholder in the international law- and peace-promoting system, a major step that the EU can significantly promote by formulating a new common strategy on China; |
*

|
96. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the governments and parliaments of the Member States and the accession and candidate countries, the Government of the People's Republic of China and the Chinese National People's Congress, and the Taiwan authorities. |

Eco-labelling schemes for fisheries products
European Parliament resolution on launching a debate on a Community approach towards ecolabelling schemes for fisheries products (2005/2189(INI))
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to the communication from the Commission to the Council, the European Parliament and the European Economic and Social Committee launching a debate on a Community approach towards eco-labelling schemes for fisheries products (COM(2005)0275), |
|
— |
having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee, |
|
— |
having regard to Report No 780 of the 26th session of the Committee on Fisheries of the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) held in Rome from 7 to 11 March 2005, |
|
— |
having regard to the communication from the Commission setting out a Community Action Plan to integrate environmental protection requirements into the Common Fisheries Policy (COM(2002)0186), |
|
— |
having regard to the communication from the Commission to the Council and the European Parliament on ‘The future for the market in fisheries products in the European Union: responsibility, partnership and competitiveness’ (COM(1997)0719), |
|
— |
having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 of 20 December 2002 on the conservation and sustainable exploitation of fisheries resources under the Common Fisheries Policy (1), |
|
— |
having regard to Rule 45 of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
— |
having regard to the report of the Committee on Fisheries and the opinion of the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety (A6-0219/2006), |
|
A. |
whereas the placing on the market of fishery products, substantiated by reliable certification that their capture, breeding, harvesting or processing are in accordance with environmental sustainability criteria, may contribute significantly to an increase in support from both producers and consumers for the objectives behind sustainable fishing, |
|
B. |
whereas, however, there is no single internationally adopted criterion regarding the meaning of sustainability in relation to fishery products, |
|
C. |
whereas an ecological approach as part of an eco-labelling scheme must always be based on broadspectrum assessments, |
|
D. |
whereas an eco-labelling and certification scheme must give preference to a multi-criteria clarification system, |
|
E. |
whereas the FAO has been considering the issue of eco-labelling for fisheries and aquaculture products since 1998, with its Committee on Fisheries issuing directives on the subject in May 2005, |
|
F. |
whereas the World Trade Organization (WTO) looked into the matter following the meeting in Doha in 2001, at which it became clear that developing countries were concerned that an eco-labelling scheme could lead to a new protectionist mechanism for products from more developed countries, |
|
G. |
whereas eco-labelling for fisheries products may serve to improve the gathering of information on specific fisheries (improvements to the quantity and reliability of data), |
|
H. |
whereas the numerous eco-labelling schemes and criteria relating to eco-labelling that are emerging, together with the lack of confidence and sense of confusion that this generates among consumers, may lead to the discrediting of this mechanism, |
|
I. |
whereas the European Community recently signed the Agreement on the International Dolphin Conservation Program and the associated eco-certification scheme (Dolphin Safe), |
|
J. |
whereas it has also been shown that there is confusion regarding the difference between an ecological label and a quality label, |
|
K. |
whereas, in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002, all European Union fisheries should, by definition, be sustainable, since they should conform to Community standards, |
|
1. |
Welcomes the communication from the Commission launching a debate on a Community approach towards eco-labelling schemes for fisheries products; |
|
2. |
Regrets, however, the delays on the part of the Commission in coming forward with its communication, which have in the meantime allowed privately initiated eco-labels to proliferate without any form of public control, giving rise to issues of credibility and confusion for producers and consumers; |
|
3. |
Draws attention, furthermore, to the real objectives of many of these labels which, given the growing importance that consumers place on sustainable development, are simply used as a means to increase sales, denying the consumer any real guarantee that the products actually contribute to sustainability; |
|
4. |
Believes that the range of schemes currently in place adds to the complexity of the issue and that any future proposal must not be designed in such a way that those already operating in the market are given a commercial advantage; |
|
5. |
Understands that the sole purpose of the communication is to launch a general debate and not at this stage to consider the details of the criteria on which Community eco-labelling is to be based; regrets, however, that the Commission's communication brings little to the debate which the Commission itself is seeking to initiate, and which now appears to have been left wide open, with little thought being given to it; |
|
6. |
Deplores the communication's lack of ambition and considers that the chosen option (which consists of establishing minimum requirements for voluntary eco-labelling schemes) does not fully address the issues in question; considers that whatever labels are used in the marketplace must be independently monitored in order to be absolutely reliable and credible for the consumer; |
|
7. |
Calls for better recognition at European level of non-industrial fishing; before the possible establishment of an eco-labelling scheme, calls for the parties concerned, including representatives of the non-industrial fishing sector, to be consulted and their suggestions taken into account; |
|
8. |
Believes that a label will be fully effective only if it is uniform and easily comprehensible to consumers, allowing them to choose products that maintain the sustainability of fisheries resources; |
|
9. |
Encourages the Commission consequently to develop further a broad debate in which all parties concerned can participate and in which serious thought can be given to the volume and importance of the issues that still require discussion; |
|
10. |
Agrees in principle with the objectives of sustainability, harmonisation, traceability, transparency, objectivity and non-discrimination, mentioned in point 4 of the communication; considers that establishing a single EU eco-label is bureaucratically cumbersome; |
|
11. |
Is convinced that the use of reliable eco-labels could be a very effective tool in combating illegal, unregulated and unreported fishing, since it requires very clear documentation evidencing the provenance of the fish, which would make it much more difficult for illegal fish to enter the marketplace; |
|
12. |
Asks the Commission to clarify its understanding of a public Community label, since its analysis of option 2 (‘Creating a single Community eco-labelling scheme for fish and fishery products’) and option 3 (‘Establishing minimum requirements for voluntary eco-labelling schemes’) in the communication makes it unclear as to whether account has been taken of considerations in international fora regarding the ownership of an eco-labelling scheme; |
|
13. |
Takes the view that, once an eco-labelling and certification scheme has been set up, the Commission will need to promote and explain it to all those involved in the process; takes the view that the Commission will also need to ensure that confidence can be fully guaranteed with regard to compliance with the rules laid down by the bodies responsible for labelling and certification so that consumers are not misled; |
|
14. |
Urges the Commission to draw up a communication to the European Parliament and to the Council within six months, subject to developments in the broad debate, detailing the minimum requirements and guidelines with which a Community eco-labelling scheme for fisheries products must comply; |
|
15. |
Urges the Commission, further, to take into account international criteria relating to this matter, in particular the criteria set out by the FAO, when it comes to laying the foundations of an eco-labelling scheme for fisheries products in the EU, so that the scheme, amongst other things;
|
|
16. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission and the governments of the Member States. |

having regard to the statement issued by the European Parliament's Conference of Presidents on 20 July 2006, |
|
— |
having regard to the Co-Chairmen Statement of the Rome International Conference for Lebanon of 26 July 2006, |
|
— |
having regard to the conclusions of the extraordinary General Affairs and External Relations Council (GAERC) meeting of 25 August 2006, |
|
— |
having regard to the statement of the Bureau of the Euro-Mediterranean Parliamentary Assembly (EMPA) adopted on 24 August 2006, |
|
— |
having regard to the conclusions of the Stockholm Conference for Lebanon's Early Recovery, held on 31 August 2006, [taken from para. 13] |
|
— |
having regard to the Geneva Conventions on international humanitarian law, |
|
— |
having regard to the statement made by the Special Rapporteur on the human rights situation in the occupied Palestinian territories at the UN Human Rights Council special session held in Geneva on 5 July 2006, |
|
— |
having regard to Articles 15, 16 and 19 of the EU Treaty, |
|
— |
having regard to Rule 103(4) of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
A. |
whereas the conflict in Lebanon has resulted in a humanitarian catastrophe, which has caused hundreds of deaths and injuries on both sides, extensive damage to civilian infrastructure and hundreds of thousands of internally displaced persons, and has not come to an end with the ceasefire, |
|
B. |
deeply shocked by the outbreak of hostilities in south Lebanon, the attacks by Hezbollah and the overreaction in the use of force by the Israeli army, which were a serious threat to international peace and security, |
|
C. |
noting the call by the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights to examine whether breaches of international law occurred during the conflict, |
|
D. |
having regard to the serious extent of the Israeli bombings and firing of rockets by Hezbollah and Palestinian militias against civilian populations, |
|
E. |
whereas UN Security Council (UNSC) Resolution 1701 calls on the Government of Lebanon to extend its authority over the territory of the country through its own legitimate armed forces, and has decided to increase the force strength of the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (Unifil) and extend its mandate, |
|
F. |
whereas UNSC Resolution 1701 calls upon the Government of Israel to withdraw all of its forces from south Lebanon as the deployment of Unifil begins and to put to an end to the blockade of airports and harbours in Lebanon, |
|
G. |
emphasising the role that a totally democratic and sovereign Lebanon can play in the implementation of a solution to the Middle-East crisis and in the development of a strong Euro-Mediterranean Partnership, |
|
H. |
stressing that the humanitarian crisis in the Occupied Territories is worsening in spite of the Temporary International Mechanism (TIM) set up by the international community in order to continue providing assistance to the Palestinian population, |
|
I. |
whereas the Middle East peace process is in a political and diplomatic deadlock although a just and lasting solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is needed for the establishment of peace and security in the whole region, |

J. |
whereas the European Union has a special responsibility for peace and security in the Middle East, which is Europe's neighbourhood, and whereas the instruments and methods for the coordination of the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) must therefore be improved, including through the adoption of a common position in the framework of the CFSP and on the basis of Articles 15 and 16 of the EU Treaty, |
|
1. |
Expresses its serious concern over the extension and intensity of the military conflict in south Lebanon and deeply regrets the casualties among civilians, soldiers and UN observers in Lebanon and/or Israel, and the massive destruction of infrastructure; reaffirms that there is no military solution to the conflict in the Middle East; |
|
2. |
Stresses, in this connection, that no ceasefire can be lasting without the parties directly or indirectly involved showing the political will to tackle the root causes of the recent crisis; |
|
3. |
Reiterates the call for the immediate release of the kidnapped Israeli soldiers and of the members of the Palestinian Government and members of the Palestinian Legislative Council imprisoned by Israel; |
|
4. |
Welcomes the unanimous adoption by the UNSC of Resolution 1701, which establishes the conditions for putting an end to the military operations and reinforces Unifil with a strong mandate aimed at increasing its capacity to prevent any violation of the ceasefire, assist the Lebanese Government in exercising full sovereignty and effective control over the territory of the country, including the territorial waters, support the full implementation of UNSC Resolution 1559 and contribute to the protection of the civilian population and Unifil itself; |
|
5. |
Welcomes the Lebanese Government's decision to deploy its forces in south Lebanon and the Israeli army's agreement to withdraw behind the Blue Line as provided for in UNSC Resolution 1701; welcomes the Lebanese Government's strong support for an enhanced role for Unifil; |
|
6. |
Considers that the Unifil mandate should represent a serious commitment to providing adequate assistance to the Lebanese Government in the establishment of effective control and security arrangements, as determined in UNSC Resolutions 1559 and 1701; |
|
7. |
Welcomes the outcome of the abovementioned GAERC meeting, in particular the full support expressed by the Council for the implementation of UNSC Resolution 1701, and the Member States' commitment to provide about 7 000 soldiers out of a maximum of 15 000 Unifil forces; |
|
8. |
Underlines the active role taken by France and Italy; fully supports the decision that France will continue to assume the command of Unifil until February 2007 and that Italy will then take over ground control; stresses, nevertheless, that any duplication of command structures must be avoided; |
|
9. |
Stresses, nevertheless, the importance of clearly and adequately defining the mandate, rules of engagement, structure and competences of Unifil, if necessary to be agreed under a new UNSC resolution, which should take into account the lessons learnt from previous UN peacekeeping engagements, notably in Bosnia and Herzegovina; |
|
10. |
Considers it vital that all weapon imports into Lebanon be directed only to the official Lebanese army and asks the Lebanese Government to ensure, in cooperation with Unifil, the full implementation of UNSC Resolution 1559; stresses also the importance for all the EU Member States to act in line with the requirements of Resolution 1701 related to arms supplies; and stresses that this settlement should lead to the disarming of all militias, including that of Hezbollah, and measures to prevent the entry of arms into Lebanon; |
|
11. |
Calls on Member States to respect strictly the Code of Conduct on Arms Export as regards all deliveries of weapons to the region; |
|
12. |
Calls on the European Union to undertake to work with all the parties involved and calls on these parties to honour their commitments scrupulously, with a view to the full implementation of UNSC Resolution 1701, so as to allow access for emergency humanitarian assistance and the return of displaced persons under the safest possible conditions; urges, in this context, the lifting of the air and sea blockade of Lebanon and recalls, in the light of the relevant provisions of Resolution 1701, that establishing effective measures in the area of arms, related materials, training or assistance, is a priority; |
|
13. |
Points out that strong, quick and effective efforts are needed for the reconstruction of Lebanon; welcomes, in this regard, the conclusions of the Stockholm Conference for Lebanon's Early Recovery, in which donor countries decided to contribute substantively to the reconstruction of the country, and the Commission and Member States announced the grant of EUR 120 million in humanitarian aid; |
|
14. |
Calls on the Council and the Commission to continue their efforts to establish a living partnership with democratic political forces and civil society, in order to support further democratisation in Lebanon after the events of March 2005; |
|
15. |
Calls urgently on Iran and Syria to play a constructive role, especially with regard to the implementation of UNSC Resolutions 1559 and 1701; calls specifically on Syria to step up controls on its side of the Lebanese-Syrian border in accordance with Resolution 1701, which requires neighbouring countries to prevent supplies of weapons to non-State entities; |
|
16. |
Calls on the Council and the Commission to restart a genuine dialogue with Syria in order to engage this country in peace efforts for a comprehensive settlement of the conflict; expects that the UN Secretary-General's report provided for in UNSC Resolution 1701 on the delineation of the international borders in Lebanon, including the dispute over the Shebaa farms area, will contribute to progress in this issue; |
|
17. |
Calls for a comprehensive international high-level inquiry to be conducted with the good offices of the UN Secretary-General in Lebanon and Israel with a mandate to investigate reports of serious human rights violations, the plight of victims and the violation of humanitarian law; |
|
18. |
Considers in this context that the European Union, as a major donor, and the international community should study ways of establishing possible conditions of accountability; |
|
19. |
Welcomes the early action of the Commission's monitoring and information centre planning to tackle the oil slick that has contaminated more than 50 km of Lebanese coastline; stresses the need for measures to fight pollution in certain areas and especially against the disastrous impact of the oil slick off the Lebanese shoreline; calls on the Member States and the Commission to provide assistance and a response within the framework of the Pollution Prevention and Response Protocol to the Barcelona Convention and through the Regional Marine Pollution Emergency Response Centre for the Mediterranean Sea, which operates within the framework of the Mediterranean Action Plan; |
|
20. |
Deeply deplores the deteriorating situation of the population and civilian infrastructure in Gaza and the West Bank; asks all sides to break the vicious circle of attacks and counter- attacks, which have resulted in hundreds of deaths and injuries and extensive damage to civilian infrastructure; |
|
21. |
Stresses the need to bring the Middle East peace process back to the top of the international political agenda; calls on the Quartet (UN, EU, USA and Russia) to revive the implementation of the Roadmap with a view to the annual UN General Assembly session in September 2006; reaffirms that the two-state solution, with an Israeli and a Palestinian state co-existing in peace and security, is a key condition for a peaceful and lasting settlement in the Middle East; |
|
22. |
Calls on the Council and the Commission to continue to guarantee, together with the international community, essential humanitarian aid for the Palestinian population; demands that the TIM be reinforced and extended in terms of duration and resources; calls on the Israeli Government urgently to resume the transfer of withheld Palestinian tax and customs revenues; calls on Israel to permit the movement of people, respecting the Agreement on Movement and Access in Rafah and at other border crossings in Gaza; |
|
23. |
Restates its support for the President of the Palestinian Authority, Mahmoud Abbas, in his efforts to promote a national dialogue between the various Palestinian parties, with the aim of setting up a new Palestinian government; |
|
24. |
Considers that the presence of a multinational force in Lebanon could be taken as an exemplary model to be followed in the negotiation process for a settlement of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict; |
|
25. |
Calls on the Council to make every effort to convene an international peace conference — such as the Madrid Conference in 1991 — in order to find a comprehensive, lasting and viable solution to the problems in the area, based on the relevant UNSC resolutions, which includes the right of Israel to live within secure and recognised borders and the right to a viable state for the Palestinians based on the Occupied Territories, and to deal in full with security and disarmament issues; considers that a unilateral approach by any of the parties concerned must be rejected; |
|
26. |
Considers the involvement of the League of Arab States to be essential in this context; considers the ‘Beirut Plan’ of 2002, agreed by the member countries of the League of Arab States, and the Geneva Initiative, as important contributions to the negotiations, which should be duly taken into account; |
|
27. |
Takes the view that the EMPA, as the Barcelona Process' only parliamentary institution for elected representatives of the peoples of the southern Mediterranean shore and the European Union, must assume its responsibility for facilitating the resumption of dialogue and cooperation between the parties to the Middle-East situation; supports the EMPA Bureau's request to convene an extraordinary meeting of the Euromed Council of Foreign Ministers of the Barcelona Process as soon as possible; |
|
28. |
Believes that in the medium to long term, the building of institutions uniting the countries of the Mediterranean basin, such as a Euro-Mediterranean Development Bank, will be the best guarantor of lasting peace and human development; and calls on EU Member States to strive for the creation of such institutions, rather than to seek bilateral agreements; |
|
29. |
Is in favour of sending a fact-finding delegation to Lebanon, Palestine and Israel in order to monitor the situation, with special focus on the humanitarian and political conditions; |
|
30. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the governments and parliaments of the Member States, the UN Secretary-General, the President of the UN General Assembly, the governments and parliaments of Israel, Lebanon and the Palestinian Authority, Syria, Iran, the USA and Russia, and the Secretary-General of the League of Arab States. |

having regard to the Commission Communication on improving the Community Civil Protection Mechanism (COM(2005)0137 and Michel Barnier's call for the creation of a European civil protection force, to be called ‘Europe Aid’, |
|
— |
having regard to the Commission proposal for establishing a European Union Solidarity Fund (COM (2005)0108) and to Parliament's position of 18 May 2006 (12), |
|
— |
having regard to the Commission Communication on a Biomass action plan (COM(2005)0628) and on an EU Strategy for Biofuels (COM(2006)0034), |
|
— |
having regard to its resolution of 15 June 2006 on the revised sustainable development strategy (13), |
|
— |
having regard to point 12 of the Presidency Conclusions of the Brussels European Council of 15 and 16 June 2006 concerning the Union's responsiveness to emergencies, crises and disasters, |
|
— |
having regard to Rule 103(4) of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
A. |
whereas in 2006 the European Union has suffered devastating forest fires, especially in the southern Member States, which have caused fatalities and considerable material damage, |
|
B. |
whereas the total area of vegetation and woodland affected by the fires in the EU is more than 200 000 hectares, half of it in Spain; whereas the other Member States affected include not only Portugal, Greece, France, Italy and Cyprus, but also others traditionally considered less at risk, such as the Netherlands, Ireland, Lithuania, the UK, Austria, Sweden, the Czech Republic and Poland, |
|
C. |
whereas the forest fires were particularly severe in regions such as Galicia, where, by 14 August 2006, 88 473 hectares were affected, leading to 4 deaths, injuring 514 people, killing animals and causing considerable material and ecological damage, including to 17 Sites of Community Importance (SCIs) included in the Natura 2000 Network and other areas of ecological significance, some of which form corridors for species between protected sites, |
|
D. |
whereas in recent years persistent droughts and high temperatures have led to the proliferation of forest fires in Europe and worsening desertification in many regions and have affected agriculture, stockbreeding and the forest heritage, |
|
E. |
whereas the European Environment Agency (EEA) has predicted that southern Europe will experience increased drought stress, more frequent forest fires and increased heat stress, while northern Europe will experience increased precipitation, and most regions of Europe will encounter increases in flood magnitude and frequency, due to climate change, |
|
F. |
whereas Europe's vulnerability to drought is increasingly due to unsustainable use of water, soil and biological resources as well as to climate change, which also puts the European food supply at risk, |
|
G. |
whereas these fires have partly been caused by the drought and high temperatures of summer 2006 as well as the socio-economic and cultural changes that have occurred in recent decades in rural areas: abandonment of rural areas, insufficient maintenance of forests, planting of insufficient varieties of trees and a considerable incidence of criminal activity, |
|
H. |
whereas the abandonment of rural areas, as well as a decrease in the profitability of forests and the high cost of their maintenance, has affected good management by owners, with the consequence of an increase in biomass in undergrowth and the appearance of large areas of highly combustible thicket, while in those places where forests are socio-economically relevant, fires are significantly less prevalent, |
|
I. |
whereas natural disasters have damaging economic and social consequences for regional economies, productive activity and tourism, |
|
J. |
whereas floods, in particular in Austria, Hungary and Poland, but also in other parts of Europe, have caused serious damage to homes, infrastructure and agriculture, |
|
K. |
whereas fires and floods are often transnational in nature and it is therefore necessary to reinforce the joint measures for fighting natural disasters and the Community civil protection mechanisms, |
|
L. |
whereas rural development policy will not suffice to tackle this problem, and the heading for aid to farmers for creating and maintaining firebreaks has disappeared from the framework regulation for the new European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD), |
|
M. |
whereas the Brussels European Council of 15 and 16 June 2006 adopted the Presidency's report on reinforcing the Union's response capacities in cases of emergency and crisis, and welcomed the report presented by Michel Barnier in May 2006, |
|
N. |
whereas, pursuant to the Presidency Conclusions of that Council, the Brussels-based ad hoc crisis steering group should be operative by 1 July 2006, |
|
O. |
whereas Parliament plans to follow up its work on natural disasters, in particular its work since August 2005, with a public hearing on fires and floods, to be held in October 2006, |
|
P. |
whereas there is no specific European legislation to tackle droughts and fires, although a directive on the prevention of floods is being prepared, |
|
1. |
Expresses its solidarity with the relatives of those who lost their lives and with residents in the affected areas, in particular Galicia, and thanks everyone — professionals and volunteers — who helped extinguish fires and rescue people from floods; |
|
2. |
Acknowledges the solidarity shown by the European Union, its Member States and other countries with the affected regions in both Member States and candidate countries and the praiseworthy help provided to their authorities and rescue services; considers that the dimensions of these phenomena and their consequences go beyond the regional and national scale and urgently call for an effective European commitment; |
|
3. |
Is concerned at the growing number of disasters, something which, according to experts, may be attributed largely to climate change; calls, accordingly, on the Member States to do what is necessary to attain the Kyoto goals, and calls on the Commission to take initiatives to guarantee compliance with the Kyoto commitments and the follow-up to them; believes that the damage caused by recent events further emphasises that mitigation will be much less costly than the consequences of global warming; |
|
4. |
Considers that its above mentioned resolution of 15 June 2006 contains key elements and principles to be taken into account and calls for the timely implementation of the strategy; |
|
5. |
Believes that global and regional preventive measures must play the key role, rather than damage reparation; further notes that the damage caused by these natural disasters could have been partly prevented and that this should provide an incentive for developing and implementing prevention policies and adequate legislation on conservation and appropriate land use, including sustainable farm and forestry practices and efficient risk management; |
|
6. |
Believes that such disasters can be handled efficiently only at Community level, subject to the subsidiarity principle: they call for an effective response at European level, with, if necessary, new Community instruments for preventing and dealing with the problem; |
|
7. |
Asks the Commission to mobilise the European Union Solidarity Fund in a flexible fashion, facilitating its implementation, in order to tackle serious damage caused by fires, bearing in mind that such damage affects the way of life of the population, especially in the less prosperous regions that have to cope with adverse effects on infrastructure, economic potential, employment, the natural and cultural heritage, the environment and tourism, which in turn will badly affect economic and social cohesion; |
|
8. |
Calls for adequate resources to be allocated to civil protection against major emergencies and regrets the Council's lukewarm response to the proposal for creating a European civil protection corps (the Barnier report); |
|
9. |
Welcomes the Commission's proposals for improving the EU's rapid response capacity for major emergencies; |
|
10. |
Calls for better use of existing financial and technical resources and scientific improvements in the prevention of disasters and the alleviation of their consequences; |
|
11. |
Urges the adoption and the prompt implementation by the Member States of the proposed legislation establishing a Community civil protection mechanism and concerning the assessment and management of floods (the latter under codecision); |
|
12. |
Calls on the Finnish Presidency-in-Office to pay particular attention to the development of the Union's rapid response capacity for major disasters and to the proposals made by the Commission and Parliament for reinforcing the Community's civil protection capacity and to propose the adoption of the relevant legal instruments by the end of 2006, in line with the mandate given by the European Council of 15 and 16 June 2006; |
|
13. |
Urges the Commission to create a programme for the exchange of experience of the implementation of new technologies for controlling and following up the risks and effects of forest fires and to prepare a European approval procedure for the qualifications of technical personnel, to improve their training; |
|
14. |
Expresses its concern that the aims of the ‘Forest Focus’ regulation in the field of prevention have not been attained; notes that the number of fires and the areas which have been burned, rather than decreasing, have increased since it entered into force; calls on the Commission to include specific proposals to solve these problems in the report that it is to present before the end of 2006; |
|
15. |
Notes that, despite the fact that the European Forest Fire Information System (EFFIS) has managed to harmonise data on fires within Member States and to provide updated information on the natural risk factors, it does not permit investigation of the anthropogenic origins, does not determine socioeconomic risk factors and does not evaluate the repercussions of fires; calls on the Commission to submit a proposal to supplement this system with other data that make it possible to correct these shortcomings; |
|
16. |
Urges the Commission to present, within the Action Plan on Biomass, concrete proposals for the forests in southern Europe concerning the use of forest biomass for energy purposes, entailing a new source of income for the owner and at the same time contributing to better management of forests; |
|
17. |
Calls on the Commission, in the new EU Action Plan for the sustainable management of forests, to step up the European forest policy and give greater emphasis to the multiple functions of European agriculture, with a twofold aim: to maintain and provide employment for the rural population and to substantially increase the mass of forests; calls likewise for support measures for fire prevention in silviculture to help the owners and their organisations implement such activities as pollarding, non-commercial pruning, slashing, clearing the forest biomass, creating control lines and fire breaks, building forest roads and depositing water; |
|
18. |
Calls on the Commission to issue a Communication to make society aware of the value of our forests and their resources and the benefits of their conservation, promoting the involvement of civil society through organised volunteering or other methods, such as involving associations for the protection of forests and natural areas; |
|
19. |
Calls on the Member States to strengthen penalties for criminal acts that damage the environment and in particular those for causing forest fires, and believes that prompt and effective investigation that determines responsibilities, followed by proportionate punishment, would discourage negligent and deliberately criminal behaviour; |
|
20. |
Reiterates its call on the Commission to submit specific proposals for a directive on combating forest fires and droughts in the Union, with a view to improving the coordination of Member States' policies and optimising the existing Community instruments; |
|
21. |
Calls on the Commission to undertake an in-depth analysis of the consequences and repercussions of natural disasters, especially those affecting the Union's forests, including the impact on the Natura 2000 Network, and to submit proposals for the development of a Community policy for controlling forest fires and for a joint protocol on preventing and combating such fires; |
|
22. |
Advocates a Community strategy for the coordination of fire prevention measures in the framework of the rural development regulation; calls for a reforestation policy based on respect for bio-climatic and environmental characteristics, using plant varieties that resist fire and drought better and are better adapted to the climate; |
|
23. |
Calls on the Commission to reintroduce aid to farmers for creating and maintaining firebreaks as part of the implementing rules for the new European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD); |
|
24. |
Considers that voluntary civil protection action should be promoted and supported without delay, with basic training and equipment that might harness advanced technologies, since this is one of the major resources available to the Member States when dealing with states of emergency arising from natural disasters; |
|
25. |
Regrets that Russia neglected to cooperate with its neighbouring countries during its recent forest fires; calls for the Commission to raise this issue in the framework of the EU-Russia Partnership and Cooperation Agreement; |
|
26. |
Calls on its Bureau to authorise a delegation to the worst-affected areas ahead of the public hearing planned for October 2006, during which the Barnier report will be considered; |
|
27. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the governments of the Member States and the regional authorities affected by the fires and floods. |

Doha Development Agenda
European Parliament resolution on the suspension of negotiations on the Doha Development Agenda
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to the Doha Ministerial Declaration of the World Trade Organization (WTO) of 14 November 2001, |
|
— |
having regard to its resolution of 4 April 2006 on the assessment of the Doha Round following the WTO Ministerial Conference in Hong Kong (1), |
|
— |
having regard to the Ministerial Declaration of the Sixth Session of the Ministerial Conference of the WTO, adopted on 18 December 2005 (2), |
|
— |
having regard to Rule 108(5) of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
A. |
whereas the Doha Round was launched in 2001 with the objectives of rectifying the existing imbalances in the multilateral trading system in the common belief that only a multilateral system based on fair trade and just and equitable rules could spur genuine development and of placing the needs and interests of developing countries at the heart of the Doha Development Programme, |
|
B. |
whereas a failure to conclude the Doha Round would challenge the credibility of the multilateral trading system and result in a shift towards bilateral and regional trade agreements, which often accentuate imbalances between the developed and the developing world, |
|
C. |
whereas developing countries and the least developed countries (LDCs) would suffer most from the suspension of the Round, as the long-awaited rebalancing of trade rules, putting trade at the service of sustainable development and respecting the wider system of global governance, cannot be achieved outside the multilateral framework, |
|
D. |
whereas any prolongation of the current atmosphere of uncertainty about the future of multilateralism and the WTO itself would add to global economic and political uncertainty and entail economic, financial and social consequences, |
|
E. |
whereas the current structure of the WTO needs to be reformed in order to facilitate negotiations and enhance accountability and transparency, |
|
1. |
Reiterates its full commitment to the multilateral approach to trade policy and the role that the WTO should play as the guarantor of a rules-based international trade system; regrets, therefore, the suspension sine die of the Doha Round negotiations in July 2006 and is especially disappointed that insufficient flexibility on the part of some of the major players led to deadlock; |
|
2. |
Is concerned that a failure to reach agreement on the Doha Development Agenda (DDA) could lead to the collapse of the present multilateral trading system; stresses that a shift to bilateral/regional agreements would lead to unequal and less transparent negotiations, often putting the poorer countries at a disadvantage; |
|
3. |
Stresses that the short- and medium-term consequences of this suspension will affect the developing countries and the LDCs most, especially if pro-development commitments entered into in Hong Kong are no longer respected; |
|
4. |
Is concerned that the suspension of the multilateral negotiations could result in the expansion of trade disputes, whereby WTO members would try to achieve by litigation what could not be achieved by negotiation; |
|
5. |
Urges a strong commitment on the part of all major players, including the EU, the US and the G-20, to come to a balanced agreement on each of the Round's main negotiation topics, putting development at the heart of the conclusions and further evaluating the outcome in order to ensure that the DDA ultimately results in meaningful and sustainable economic gains, particularly for the developing countries; stresses that, in order fully to implement the Doha mandate, the positive achievements of the negotiations must be preserved and offers made to date on various elements of the negotiating agenda should form the basis of the negotiations; |
|
6. |
Considers that the developed countries should continue to create more favourable trading conditions for the developing countries and the LDCs, independently of the final outcome of the round; calls on the developed and advanced developing countries to follow the EU Everything but Arms initiative, guaranteeing 100 % duty- and quota-free market access for the LDCs; |
|
7. |
Underlines the need for institutional reforms to improve the functioning of the WTO and reiterates the importance of enhancing the accountability and democratic legitimacy of the WTO negotiations and organisation; is convinced that the multilateral process based on the bottom-up and transparent approach should be at the core of the negotiations; stresses at the same time the need for an inclusive process involving all members; |
|
8. |
Is convinced that the suspension of negotiations must be used as a call to reflect on the conditions necessary to improve future trade negotiations; |
|
9. |
Calls on the Commission and the Council to establish an agreement to ensure full participation of the European Parliament in the European Union's international trade negotiations; |
|
10. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the governments and parliaments of the Member States and the Director-General of the WTO. |

Counterfeiting of medicinal products
European Parliament resolution on counterfeiting of medicinal products
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to the statement on the fight against counterfeiting by the Heads of State and Government of the G8 at the St Petersburg Summit on 15, 16 and 17 July 2006, |
|
— |
having regard to the Declaration of Rome adopted at the WHO international conference of 18 February 2006, |
|
— |
having regard to the Commission's initiatives on enforcing intellectual property rights and its action plan against counterfeiting and piracy adopted in October 2005, |
|
— |
having regard to the judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Communities of 13 September 2005 (C-176/03) which has strengthened the European Community's capacity to impose penal sanctions for counterfeiting, |
|
— |
having regard to the WHO resolution on ‘public health, innovation, essential health research and intellectual property rights’ adopted on 29 May 2006, |
|
— |
having regard to Rule 108(5) of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
A. |
whereas the counterfeiting of medicines can have extremely serious consequences and may well endanger the health and life of millions of people, |
|
B. |
whereas, according to the WHO, ‘a counterfeit medicine is one which is deliberately and fraudulently mislabelled with respect to identity and/or source. Counterfeiting can apply to both branded and generic products and counterfeit products may include products with the correct ingredients or with the wrong ingredients, without active ingredients, with insufficient active ingredients or with fake packaging’, |
|
C. |
whereas counterfeit medicines are primarily circulating in developing countries and are used to treat fatal conditions such as malaria, tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS, |
|
D. |
whereas the WHO estimates that the counterfeiting of medicines now affects 10% of the world market, and whereas the US Food and Drug Administration puts the figure at more than 10 %; whereas up to 70 % of anti-malaria drugs circulating in Cameroon are counterfeit, a figure confirmed for six other African countries by the WHO in 2003; whereas 25 % of all medicines used in developing countries are apparently counterfeit (50 % in Pakistan and Nigeria), |
|
E. |
whereas, according to the WHO, 200 000 of the one million deaths a year from malaria are attributable to medicines wrongly administered or the administration of counterfeit medicines, |
|
F. |
whereas the counterfeiting of medicines is rife in all continents but mainly in Africa, Asia, Latin America and Russia, |
|
G. |
whereas the most common factors identified by the WHO as encouraging the appearance of counterfeit medicines are: the lack of legislation prohibiting counterfeiting of medicines, weak penal sanctions, weak or non-existent national drug regulatory authorities, shortages/erratic supply of medicines, lack of control of drugs for export, trade involving several intermediaries, corruption and conflict of interest, |
|
H. |
whereas this trafficking in fake medicines is also a consequence of the lack of political awareness and commitment, weak regulatory systems, inadequate enforcement capacity and, especially in developing countries, the lack of public access to genuine medicines supervised by the public authorities, |
|
I. |
regretting that the European Union became involved only at a late stage in the international fight against counterfeiting, when more open borders and new technologies (Internet) were likely to exacerbate the problem of piracy, |
|
1. |
Considers that the European Union should equip itself as a matter of urgency with the means to combat effectively illicit practices in the area of piracy and the counterfeiting of medicines; |
|
2. |
Calls on the Commission to go beyond its communication ‘Strategy to enforce intellectual property rights in third countries’; in particular, urges the European Union to take adequate measures to combat the scourge of counterfeiting of medicines in its territory; |
|
3. |
Calls on the European Union to take steps to strengthen the regulatory and quality-control capacity for medicinal products and medical equipment put on the market in countries with inadequate resources and to improve access to affordable medicines; |
|
4. |
Urges the European Union to play a key role in promoting an international convention to create a specific criminal offence of counterfeiting or the receiving and distribution of counterfeit medicines in the legislation of every country; |
|
5. |
Calls for greater cooperation at both national and international level between the various authorities involved in anti-counterfeiting measures; |
|
6. |
Emphasises the importance of preventive measures in action programmes, more specifically, the establishment of structures, cooperation, awareness campaigns, preferably carried out by the public authorities, and finally the political will to carry through such measures successfully; |
|
7. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the governments of the Member States, the UN Secretary-General and the Secretary-General of the WHO. |

European contract law
European Parliament resolution on European contract law
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to its resolution of 23 March 2006 on European contract law and the revision of the acquis: the way forward (1), |
|
— |
having regard to its resolution of 26 May 1989 on action to bring into line the private law of the Member States (2), 6 May 1994 on the harmonisation of certain sectors of the private law of the Member States (3), 15 November 2001 on the approximation of the civil and commercial law of the Member states (4) and 2 September 2003 on the Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament and the Council — A more coherent European contract law — An action plan (5), |
|
— |
having regard to the Commission's First Annual Progress Report of 23 September 2005 on European contract law and the acquis review (COM(2005)0456 final), in which the Commission states that the review of the consumer acquis will in turn feed into the development of the broader Common Frame of Reference (CFR), |
|
— |
having regard to the Communication of 11 October 2004 from the Commission to the European Parliament and the Council on European contract law and the revision of the acquis: the way forward (COM(2004)0651), in which the Commission states that it ‘will use the CFR as a toolbox, where appropriate, when presenting proposals to improve the quality and coherence of the existing acquis and future legal instruments in the area of contract law’, |
|
— |
having regard to Rule 108(5) of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
A. |
whereas its resolution of 23 March 2006 pointed out that it is not clear what the European contract law initiative will lead to in terms of practical outcomes or on what legal basis any binding instrument will be adopted, |
|
B. |
whereas its resolution of 23 March 2006 required, among other information, a statement by the Commission on the way in which it proposes to take account of the results of the CFR-net workshops and the research groups in its subsequent work, |
|
1. |
Reiterates its conviction that a uniform internal market cannot be fully functional without further steps towards the harmonisation of civil law; |
|
2. |
Recalls that the initiative on European contract law is the most important initiative under way in the field of civil law; |
|
3. |
Strongly supports an approach for a wider CFR on general contract law issues going beyond the consumer protection field; |
|
4. |
Underlines that, besides the work on revision of the consumer acquis, the work on a wider CFR should go on; calls on the Commission to proceed, in parallel with the work on revision of the consumer acquis, with the project for a wider CFR; |
|
5. |
Underlines that — even though the final purpose and legal form of the CFR is not yet clear — the work on the project should be done well, taking into account the fact that the final long-term outcome could be a binding instrument; all the various possible options for the purpose and legal form of a future instrument should be kept open; |
|
6. |
Calls on the Commission to take into account the long-term perspective of a CFR when presenting new legislative proposals; |
|
7. |
Calls on the Commission continuously to involve Parliament in the work on the CFR; |
|
8. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council and the Commission. |

Involvement of the European Parliament in the work of the Hague Conference
European Parliament resolution on the involvement of the European Parliament in the work of the Hague Conference following the accession of the Community
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to the proposal for a Council decision on the accession of the European Community to the Hague Conference on Private International Law (COM(2005)0639), |
|
— |
having regard to its position of 7 September 2006 on the proposal for a Council decision on the accession of the European Community to the Hague Conference on Private International Law (1), |
|
— |
having regard to Rule 108(5) of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
A. |
whereas the accession of the Community to the Hague Conference on Private International Law (CODIP) should improve consistency in the fields of international civil and commercial law and Community law and should considerably enhance the influence of the Community in this forum, |
|
B. |
whereas the CODIP conventions are an indispensable point of reference in civil and commercial law, |
|
C. |
whereas, ever since the Treaty of Amsterdam, the Community has had competence to adopt measures relating to judicial cooperation in civil matters which have cross-border implications in so far as necessary for the proper functioning of the internal market, |
|
D. |
whereas Parliament is involved as co-legislator in the adoption of such measures, where it is not simply consulted, |
|
E. |
whereas a number of instruments adopted or contemplated by the Community overlap with matters which have been dealt with or may in future be dealt with by the Hague Conference, |
|
F. |
whereas, furthermore, the Community will be asked to participate actively in setting the priorities of the CODIP and ensuring that they dovetail with the Hague programme on judicial cooperation, the action plan on financial services and the internal market strategy and, more generally, with the Commission's work programme, |
|
G. |
whereas the Commission will be required to consult Parliament on draft mandates for negotiation and the need for disconnection clauses, |
|
H. |
whereas there is therefore a need for Parliament to be closely involved with the proceedings of the Hague Conference and consulted on the outcome of its deliberations in order to secure more democratic scrutiny also of the Commission's participation in the Conference as sole representative of the Community as such, and a greater measure of transparency and openness for its proceedings, which are of considerable interest for citizens and practitioners, |
|
1. |
Calls on the Council and the Commission to ask Parliament to give its views on a case-by-case basis on the need for the Community to accede to the existing conventions which have been ratified by a significant number of Member States; |
|
2. |
Resolves to investigate fully with the Conference further modes of cooperation, and to take the lead in the founding of a ‘parliamentary forum’ with national parliamentarians to both follow and inform the work of the Conference; |
|
3. |
Calls on the Council and the Commission to propose suitable procedures so as to enable Parliament to play its proper role in the context of the Hague Conference on Private International Law; |
|
4. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission and the governments and parliaments of the Member States. |

Agreement with the USA on the use of Passenger Name Record data
European Parliament recommendation to the Council on the negotiations for an agreement with the United States of America on the use of passenger name records (PNR) data to prevent and combat terrorism and transnational crime, including organised crime (2006/2193(INI))
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to the proposal for a recommendation to the Council by Sophia in 't Veld on behalf of the ALDE Group on the content of the Agreement with the United States of Amercia on the use of Passenger Name Records (PNR) data to prevent and combat terrorism and transnational crime, including organised crime (B6-0382/2006), |
|
— |
having regard to Rule 114(3) and Rule 94 of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
— |
having regard to the report of the Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs (A6-0252/2006), |
|
A. |
recalling its previous resolutions on the PNR issue (1), in which Parliament expressed from the outset:
|
|
B. |
being aware that systematic access to ‘behaviour’ data, even if not acceptable in the EU, is currently required by countries including the USA, Canada and Australia for the protection of their internal security, but pointing out that:
|
|
C. |
considering that since the atrocities of 11 September 2001, a host of single security measures has been introduced worldwide, which often involve the systematic collection and monitoring of personal data of all citizens, notably data on money transfers and telecommunications and passenger data; considering that, in the absence of a coherent EU security policy, the position of the individual citizen vis à vis the state risks being undermined; |
|
D. |
recalling that Parliament brought proceedings before the Court of Justice of the European Communities seeking the annulment of Council Decision 2004/496/EC (3) on the conclusion of an agreement with the USA, negotiated on the basis of Commission Decision 2004/535/EC (4), on the grounds that the decision lacked both a legal basis and legal clarity and because the collection of personal data authorised under the agreement was excessive when weighed against the need to combat organised crime and terrorism, |
|
E. |
welcoming the annulment by the Court of Justice of Council Decision 2004/496/EC and Commission Decision 2004/535/EC (5), |
|
F. |
regretting that the Court of Justice did not respond to Parliament's concerns about the legal structure of the agreement and the congruency of its content with the data protection principles laid down in Article 8 of the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (ECHR); |
|
G. |
taking into account the fact that the Court of Justice held that Council Decision 2004/496/EC could not be adopted validly on the basis of Article 95 of the EC Treaty in conjunction with Directive 95/46/EC (6), because the transfer to and the use of PNR data by the US Bureau of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) relates to data processing operations concerning public security and state activities in areas of criminal law, which fall outside the scope of Directive 95/46/EC and the first pillar; |
|
H. |
taking into account the expressed willingness of the Commission and the Council to cooperate closely with the Parliament in order to ensure full compliance with the Court's judgment; however, regretting that the Council has failed to involve the Parliament in the ongoing negotiations; |
|
I. |
sharing the opinion adopted on 14 June 2006 by the Article 29 Working Party on the necessary followup to the Court's judgment (7), |
|
J. |
considering the importance of the issue to be such that the EU should, in any event, come to an arrangement with the USA on a proper international agreement which, with due respect for fundamental rights, would lay down:
|
|
1. |
Addresses the following recommendations to the Council: General principles
As regards the negotiation procedure:
As regards the content of the short-term agreement
As regards the content of the medium-term agreement
|
|
2. |
Reiterates its previous demand that the new agreement should grant to European passengers the same level of data protection as is enjoyed by US citizens; |
|
3. |
Stresses its previous position that the EU should avoid the indirect creation of a European PNR system through the transfer of the relevant data by the CBP to police and judicial authorities in the Member States; considers that the systematic collection of the data of ordinary citizens outside the framework of a judicial procedure or police investigation should remain forbidden in the EU and that data should be exchanged where necessary in accordance with the existing EU/US agreement on mutual legal assistance and extradition; |
|
4. |
Proposes that a dialogue in which parliamentary representatives would take part be launched before the end of 2006 between the EU, the US, Canada and Australia with a view to preparing jointly the 2007 review and establishing a global standard for the transmission of PNR, if that is deemed necessary; |
|
5. |
Strongly recommends that Parliament organise a joint session in this respect with the US Congress, being the democratically representative institutions of the citizens concerned, so as to start a dialogue on the fight against terrorism and its consequences for civil liberties and human rights; |
*

|
6. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council and, for information, to the Commission. |
(1) Parliament resolutions of 13 March 2003 on transfer of personal data by airlines in the case of transatlantic flights (OJ C 61 E, 10.3.2004, p. 381), of 9 October 2003 on transfer of personal data by airlines in the case of transatlantic flights: state of negotiations with the USA (OJ C 81 E, 31.3.2004, p. 105) and of 31 March 2004 on the draft Commission decision noting the adequate level of protection provided for personal data contained in the Passenger Name Records (PNRs) transferred to the US Bureau of Customs and Border Protection (OJ C 103 E, 29.4.2004, p. 665).

European natural, architectural and cultural heritage in rural and island regions
European Parliament resolution on the protection of the European natural, architectural and cultural heritage in rural and island regions (2006/2050(INI))
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to Article 151 of the EC Treaty, |
|
— |
having regard to the Unesco Convention of 16 November 1972 concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage, |
|
— |
having regard to the Council of Europe Convention of 3 October 1985 for the Protection of the Architectural Heritage of Europe (Granada), |
|
— |
having regard to the Council of Europe Convention of 16 January 1992 on the Protection of the Archaeological Heritage (Valetta), |
|
— |
having regard to the European Landscape Convention of 20 October 2000 adopted by the Council of Europe (Florence), |
|
— |
having regard to the Council of Europe Framework Convention of 27 October 2005 on the Value of the Cultural Heritage for Society (Faro), |
|
— |
having regard to its resolutions of 13 May 1974 on the protection of the European cultural heritage (1), 14 September 1982 on the protection of the European architectural and archaeological heritage (2), 28 October 1988 on the conservation of the Community's architectural and archaeological heritage (3), 12 February 1993 on preserving the architectural heritage and protecting cultural assets (4) and 16 January 2001 on the application of the Convention Concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage in the Member States of the European Union (5), |
|
— |
having regard to Decision 508/2000/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 February 2000 establishing the Culture 2000 programme (6), |
|
— |
having regard to the European Parliament's position of 25 October 2005 at first reading with a view to the adoption of Decision No .../2006/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing the Culture 2007 programme (2007-2013) (7), |
|
— |
having regard to Rule 45 of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
— |
having regard to the report of the Committee on Culture and Education (A6-0260/2006), |
|
A. |
whereas the cultural heritage is a major element of the identity and historical development of the peoples of Europe, |
|
B. |
whereas ‘cultural heritage’ encompasses both tangible and intangible elements, which are constantly enriched by the cultural and creative contributions of each successive generation, |
|
C. |
whereas the cultural heritage includes both the architectural heritage and the natural heritage marked by man's way of living in time and place, |
|
D. |
whereas the European Union is dedicated to the task of promoting and conserving cultural diversity and quality of life and protecting the environment, |
|
E. |
whereas conservation of the numerous elements of cultural heritage provides a foundation for further social and economic development and thereby enhances environmental protection, employment opportunities and European integration, |
|
F. |
whereas the cultural heritage is of particular importance in rural areas which, while making up 90 % of Europe's territory, are feeling the effects of abandonment, dwindling populations and economic stagnation, |
|
G. |
whereas Europe's islands, in particular the smaller ones, have largely succeeded in preserving unaltered their original configurations, and their considerable cultural heritage requires suitable support, protection and promotion, |
|
H. |
whereas it is important to conserve and develop not only monuments but also other elements of cultural creation which shape and make possible suitable living conditions for today's inhabitants of the EU, |
|
I. |
whereas the European cultural heritage in its entirety, independently of its European, national or local dimension, is of fundamental value to European citizens, |
|
1. |
Calls on the Council to recognise explicitly the contribution made by the cultural heritage to European integration in terms of European identity and citizenship, sustainable economic and social development, intercultural exchanges and cultural diversity; |
|
2. |
Calls on the Commission, in drafting its legislative proposals, to implement effectively the horizontal clause of Article 151(4) of the EC Treaty with regard to culture, considering in depth the implications of the proposed legislation for culture and the cultural heritage with a view to ensuring that measures to promote them are embodied in all European Union policies; |
|
3. |
Takes the view that the cultural heritage must be regarded as an indivisible whole requiring the adoption of joint protective measures; |
|
4. |
Stresses that sustainable development presupposes an integrated approach to the cultural, natural and architectural environment in both urban and rural areas while calling for particular attention to be given to the European cultural heritage in rural regions; |
|
5. |
Stresses also that particular attention should be given to the protection and promotion of the natural and architectural heritage of Europe's island regions; |
|
6. |
Takes the view that action taken in rural and island regions must take into consideration the following principles:
|
|
7. |
Urges the European Union, the Member States, the local authorities and cultural, non-governmental organisations to take action to protect and rehabilitate Europe's cultural heritage, particularly small traditional communities, and raise public awareness of its importance; |
|
8. |
Considers that the factors to be taken into account in order to develop this particular sector, with due regard to the subsidiarity principle, must include:
|
|
9. |
Calls on the Member States and regional and local authorities to provide where necessary incentives for the demolition or modification of buildings out of tune with and detracting from the particular architectural character of the community or locality in which they are situated or with the natural environment and surrounding buildings; |
|
10. |
Calls on the Member States, in cooperation with the Commission, to promote the protection and conservation of their cultural heritage through the Structural Funds and existing Leader +, URBAN II and Interreg III initiatives which will, in the forthcoming financial period (2007-2013), be incorporated in the new political cohesion and common agricultural policy financial instruments; |
|
11. |
Calls on the Member States to bear in mind that financial incentive strategies must involve coordination between central and local authorities and other local bodies and institutions (not forgetting that much of the listed heritage is religious in nature) while seeking to protect and improve the natural and cultural environment of the localities concerned; |
|
12. |
Considers that significant use can be made of the natural, architectural and cultural heritage of Europe through the development, in rural and insular areas, of alternative forms of tourism, such as cultural, walking, ecological and maritime tourism; stresses the need to promote policies which enable all European citizens to enjoy the benefits of alternative tourism; |
|
13. |
Calls on the Member States to encourage and support the development of sustainable alternative tourism, giving priority to small traditional communities with the assistance of Community financial instruments such as the European Regional Development Fund, the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development, the European Fisheries Fund etc.; |
|
14. |
Calls on the Commission, within the framework of existing Community programmes, such as the Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme, to promote measures to support craft, applied arts and professional activities, particularly those in danger of disappearing and necessary for proper restoration and conservation of the architectural heritage; |
|
15. |
Calls on the Commission and Member States to encourage training for professionals specialised in the use and management of space, architecture, building restoration and repair and related activities, so as to conserve the particularities of the cultural heritage while bringing them into line with current needs; calls in addition for measures to improve training for craftsmen and suppliers of traditional materials and for the selection of methods involving their continued use; |
|
16. |
Calls on the Commission, within the framework of the 7th Framework Programme for research, technological development and demonstration activities (2007-2013) to support efforts to develop new tools, techniques and methods for the conservation of the cultural heritage; |
|
17. |
Calls on the Commission and Member States not to provide Community funding for projects which will demonstrably result in the destruction of valuable parts of our cultural heritage; |
|
18. |
Calls on the Commission, within the framework of existing Community programmes, to adopt measures to facilitate greater accessibility and encourage small companies, traditional crafts and trades and local traditions and customs, by a large-scale campaign to promote villages and communities within the Member States, so as to contribute decisively to the development of the local economy and to stem the rural exodus; |
|
19. |
Calls on the Commission to promote the sharing and exchange of experiences in this field through international conferences and meetings; |
|
20. |
Calls on the Commission, principally within the framework of the Culture (2007-2013) Programme, to give partner networks in the various Member States the opportunity of implementing multiannual projects to promote well-preserved traditional communities, with a population of, say, less than 1000; |
|
21. |
Considers that such measures will make it possible to organise cultural activities seeking to develop the cultural heritage of these communities with the more long-term aim of strengthening cooperation between traditional communities in Europe and enabling them to develop their specifically local cultures together with their European dimension; |
|
22. |
Wishes for the future development of an action in favour of small, traditional communities along the lines of that instituting the culture capitals; |
|
23. |
Considers that the ‘European Union Cultural Heritage Prize’ administered by ‘Europa Nostra’ is a valuable initiative which should be followed up in future; considers that, in this connection and in a wider context, a new category of awards for the best overall restoration of a traditional community should be introduced to encourage those communities which have managed to conserve all or part of their traditional configurations to step up their efforts in this direction; |
|
24. |
Welcomes the recent proposal within the framework of the Council for the drawing up of a European Heritage list and calls on the Commission to support it; takes the view that in this context, particular importance should be given to the local cultural heritage of rural and island regions, taking account also of the intangible aspects of the cultural heritage; takes the view that candidate countries must also be invited to participate in this initiative; |
|
25. |
Calls on the Council and the Commission to promote a ‘European Cultural Heritage Year’ so as to make the European public more aware of the importance of taking the necessary measures to promote their cultural heritage; |
|
26. |
Calls on the Commission and Member States to cooperate with the Council of Europe with a view to further promoting traditional communities and the architectural heritage in rural and island regions as part of the ‘European Cultural Heritage Days’ initiative so as to make the European public more aware of the value of local architectural monuments; |
|
27. |
Calls on the Council, the Commission and the Member States to take account of the numerous Council of Europe and Unesco conventions on the protection of the natural, architectural and cultural heritage of Europe, and to strengthen their cooperation with those organisations in accordance with Article 151(3) of the EC Treaty; |
|
28. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the governments and parliaments of the Member States and the Council of Europe. |

having regard to the Tokyo Conference Co-chairmen's statement of 30 May 2006, |
|
— |
having regard to the appeal of 12 August 2006 by the Co-Chairs of the Tokyo Donor Conference (EU, USA, Japan, Norway) that both sides put an end to all breaches of the 2002 ceasefire, |
|
— |
having regard to the statement of the Presidency of the European Union of 17 August 2006 on Sri Lanka, |

|
— |
having regard to Rule 115(5) of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
A. |
whereas, in the past few months, the situation in Sri Lanka has deteriorated miserably with hundreds of deaths, some 200 000 people displaced from their homes, 500 000 civilians in the Jaffna peninsula deprived of essential food and water supplies, and vital post-tsunami reconstruction work disrupted, |
|
B. |
whereas the Sri Lanka Monitoring Mission (SLMM) has found that the LTTE was responsible for the bombing of a civilian transport bus in a land mine attack on 15 June 2006 that killed 64 people and injured more than 80 in Kebetigollewa in northern Sri Lanka and declared the incident to be a gross violation of the Cease Fire Agreement, |
|
C. |
whereas the failure to seize the opportunity for the resumption of peace negotiations has diminished severely the possibility of real political progress, |
|
D. |
whereas the SLMM has found that 17 aid workers employed by the French humanitarian agency Action Against Hunger had been shot dead by government forces in Muttur, |
|
E. |
whereas the SLMM has been depleted and many of its monitors have been withdrawn from northern and eastern Sri Lanka following the ultimatum issued by the LTTE, |
|
F. |
recalling the primacy of respect for human rights and humanitarian norms by all parties to the conflict, not only as an immediate response to the worsening situation but as a fundamental building block in a just and enduring resolution of the conflict, |
|
G. |
whereas a deal to share international aid in the aftermath of the tsunami has never been properly implemented, reconstruction has been slow and there is real concern that funds may have been misappropriated, |
|
1. |
Deplores the resumption of large-scale and widespread violence and the breakdown of peace negotiations; is alarmed by the deterioration of the security situation with military clashes in the east and the north; stresses that the immediate reintroduction of the nominally extant Cease Fire Agreement is essential for any progress towards a political solution and a lasting peace; |
|
2. |
Condemns the daily attacks in and around Jaffna, Trincomalee and Batticaloa, which have resulted in enormous humanitarian suffering and the deaths of hundreds of civilians and military personnel; notes that the Muslim community in the east of the country has suffered disproportionately from the renewed fighting with the displacement of 50 000 people in Muttur alone; |
|
3. |
Deeply deplores the murder of the 17 Sri Lankans working for the French NGO Action Against Hunger in Muttur; acknowledges the Government's initiation of a full investigation into the incident and the participation of a forensic expert seconded by the Government of Australia; reiterates its demand for effective and impartial investigations into all alleged atrocities and serious human rights violations and for the full force of the law to be brought to bear against those found to have been complicit in such activities; |
|
4. |
Condemns the operation on 14 August 2006 against Mullaitivu which resulted in the deaths of 51 children and young people; |
|
5. |
Welcomes the announcement by Sri Lanka's President Mahinda Rajapaksa of his intention to invite an international independent group of eminent persons as observers of investigations into abductions, disappearances and extrajudicial killings in Sri Lanka; considers the setting-up of an independent, credible and effective commission, in the interim, to be a courageous move that could break the vicious cycle of violence in Sri Lanka; recommends that the Government of Sri Lanka seek the advice of UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Louise Arbour in establishing the commission, so as to ensure its independence and effectiveness; |
|
6. |
Underscores the long-term need for a wide-ranging human rights agreement between the parties and its facilitation by an effective, independent international monitoring mission, complementing the agreement on the ground, as recommended by UN Special Rapporteur Philip Alston, with unhindered access to both Government and LTTE controlled areas; |
|
7. |
Emphasises the need for Government forces engaged in counter-insurgency and domestic security operations to exercise maximum restraint in accordance with international law in order to minimise any risk of innocent civilian casualties, and to behave impeccably in all their actions; recommends that the Government of Sri Lanka strengthen its National Police Force to ensure effective police investigation of all extrajudicial killings; recommends the immediate appointment of members of the National Police Commission by the Constitutional Council, as provided for by the Constitution, and that its key role in promoting and disciplining police officers be confirmed; recommends programmes to recruit Tamil and Tamil-speaking police officers, especially to work in the North and East, and programmes to train all police reservists in criminal detection and investigation; |
|
8. |
Reiterates its condemnation of the appalling abuse of children through the recruitment of child soldiers, which is a war crime, and calls on all rebel groups to stop this practice, to release those whom they are holding and to make a declaration of principle that they will not recruit any children in the future; urges the Government of Sri Lanka to put into place legal measures to prevent and criminalise the practice; welcomes the appointment of Ambassador Alan Rock of Canada as a Special Advisor to Radhika Coomaraswamy, UN Special Representative for Children and Armed Conflict, to conduct a fact-finding mission to Sri Lanka on this issue; |
|
9. |
Condemns the intransigence of the LTTE leadership over the years, which has successively rejected so many possible ways forward, including devolution at the provincial level or Provincial Councils; devolution at the regional level or Regional Councils; as well as the concept of a federation with devolution at the national level; |
|
10. |
Expresses its concern that elements on both sides of the divide in Sri Lanka are intent on conflict and insists, for the sake of all the people of Sri Lanka, that they pull back from the brink; |
|
11. |
Calls therefore for an immediate, comprehensive and verifiable end to hostilities, including political assassinations and suicide bombing, and calls on Prabhakaran and Karuna to resume peace negotiations on a constructive basis with the Government of Sri Lanka without delay; |
|
12. |
Calls for respect for human rights and humanitarian norms by all parties to the conflict, not only as an immediate response to the worsening situation but as a fundamental building block in a just and enduring resolution of the conflict; |
|
13. |
Calls on all parties to the conflict to guarantee the security of the SLMM at all times; regrets the LTTE's insistence on the withdrawal of EU nationals from the SLMM; commends the departing Danish, Finnish and Swedish monitors for their invaluable work; supports Iceland and Norway for increasing the number of monitors they each provide to the SLMM and expresses the hope that the SLMM will be able to perform its duties without fear of hostile action; calls on the Council to provide financial or technical support for any measure that could make up for the loss and to adjust the SLMM equipment to match the challenges of its task; |
|
14. |
Calls on the Government and the LTTE to grant unhindered access for humanitarian aid workers, UN organisations and truce monitors to all parts of the country and to ensure their security; |
|
15. |
Calls on the Government of Sri Lanka to clearly set out what the requirements are for NGOs to be active in the North and East and to speed up the process of issuing work permits for international staff working with NGOs, ensuring that the process is efficient and transparent; |
|
16. |
Whilst the LTTE remains proscribed, calls upon EU Member States and the wider international community to take robust and determined action actively to investigate the agents of the LTTE; considers that this should include a properly enforced travel ban to inhibit movement of recruiters and couriers; the arrest and repatriation of those involved in terrorist support activities; confiscation of assets associated with the LTTE, such as its commercial shipping fleet; freezing of suspect bank accounts; and closing companies or undertakings associated with the LTTE; consideration can be given to lifting proscription if there is an effective ceasefire, an end to terrorism and resumption of serious negotiations on a constructive basis; |
|
17. |
Notes the closure of the Tamil Rehabilitation Organisation in the UK and the current investigations into the Tamil Rehabilitation Organisation and the World Tamil Coordinating Committee offices in the United States and Australia; |
|
18. |
Insists that more effective measures be taken by all governments of EU Member States to prevent the indoctrination and intimidation of Tamils resident in their countries and the extortion of money to fund LTTE activities; |
|
19. |
Reiterates its call, as an immediate gesture of goodwill, for both sides to cease the use of anti-personnel landmines and to assist in their removal and, to this end, calls on the Government of Sri Lanka to set an example by signing the Ottawa Convention banning the use of such mines and on the LTTE to sign the Geneva Call ‘Deed of Commitment’; |
|
20. |
Notes the decision of two Tamil political parties, the Ceylon Workers Congress and the Up-Country People's Front, to join the governing coalition; |
|
21. |
Calls on the Government of Sri Lanka, the United National Party and other parties to agree to work in close cooperation to take robust action against terrorism and to address legitimate Tamil grievances, and to come forward with a bold gesture of reconciliation towards the Tamil peoples of Sri Lanka; considers that a major step in creating the right framework for such action would be early revision of the Constitution of Sri Lanka, as one of Asia's longest-standing democracies, to define the state as a secular, democratic republic in which all religions are respected; |
|
22. |
Welcomes President Rajapaksa's expressed commitment to ‘maximum devolution’ for the Tamil peoples and calls for this to be given substance; accordingly, urges the work of the All Party Representative Committee to be expedited in order to produce realistic and acceptable proposals within weeks rather than months, which would win the hearts of the Tamil communities in the interests of an agreed solution; reiterates the Co-chairs' statement of 30 May 2006, calling for the Government of Sri Lanka to ‘show that it is ready to make the dramatic political changes to bring about a new system of governance which will enhance the rights of all Sri Lankans’; calls on the Government of Sri Lanka and the Co-Chairs to reiterate the Tokyo Declaration, and the LTTE to abide by it; |
|
23. |
Expresses concern at the impact of the renewed conflict on reconstruction and the delivery of international aid, noting that although the EU has allocated almost EUR 125 million in post-tsunami humanitarian and reconstruction aid for Sri Lanka, the enduring political gridlock on the ‘Post-Tsunami Operations Management Structure’ continues to delay the release of a further EUR 50 million in aid, hindering vital reconstruction work in the north and east of Sri Lanka; notes also the decision of the Asian Development Bank to reschedule some funding and the difficulties in taking forward many infrastructure projects; |
|
24. |
Supports the current action plan of the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs for the benefit of the displaced population; |
|
25. |
Calls on the Council, the Commission and the Governments of the Member States to redouble their efforts to help bring a stable and just peace to Sri Lanka and restore security and prosperity; |
|
26. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the Secretary-General of the United Nations, the Government of Norway and the other Co-Chairs of the Tokyo Donor Conference, the President and Government of Sri Lanka and other parties to the conflict. |

North Korean asylum seekers, in particular in Thailand
European Parliament resolution on North Korean asylum seekers, in particular in Thailand
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to its previous resolutions on North Korea, |
|
— |
having regard to the rules laid down in the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees and the 1967 Protocol thereto, |
|
— |
having regard to Rule 115(5) of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
A. |
whereas, in recent years, tens of thousands of North Koreans have fled from their home country because of repression and widespread hunger, some risking their lives in travelling through China to arrive in Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, South Korea and other South-East Asian countries, |
|
B. |
whereas the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) has ratified the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, |
|
C. |
whereas Thailand has become a transit destination for North Koreans fleeing their homeland, thus putting the Thai authorities in a difficult situation vis-à-vis the DPRK, a country with which they have friendly relations, |
|
D. |
whereas the number of North Korean, Burmese, Laotian and Chinese refugees in transit on Thai territory has considerably increased over the past year; |
|
E. |
whereas the Thai authorities wish to enforce the law on illegal immigration; |
|
F. |
whereas, on 22 August 2006, the Thai police arrested a group of 175 asylum seekers — 37 men, 128 women and 10 children — who had been hiding for the last two months in an abandoned house in the Thai capital, Bangkok, |
|
G. |
whereas these asylum seekers, who form the largest group of North Koreans ever arrested in Thailand, were charged with illegal entry and brought before a court, where they were fined THB 6 000 (USD 160) each and put into jail for 30 days because they were unable to pay, |
|
H. |
whereas 16 members of this group have been granted refugee status by the Bangkok Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and are scheduled to leave Thailand in a few days for South Korea, which grants citizenship to defectors from the North, |
|
I. |
whereas governments are bound by their obligation as parties to the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees and the 1967 Protocol thereto to grant the UNHCR access to all nationals, including North Koreans, seeking asylum in another country, |
|
J. |
whereas the situation of the remaining asylum seekers remains precarious and needs to be resolved rapidly, |
|
1. |
Deplores, as it has done in its previous resolutions, the fact that thousands of North Korean citizens flee their country because of repression, hunger and economic decline; |
|
2. |
Urges the Thai authorities not to repatriate the North Korean refugees, since they and their families will face dire consequences; |
|
3. |
Calls on Thailand, which is well-known for its long tradition of hospitality towards refugees and which is a responsible member of the international community, to seek, in close cooperation with the UNHCR and other humanitarian organisations, to find a rapid and acceptable solution for the North Korean refugees by sending them to a third country of their choice after the expiry of their 30-day jail sentence; |
|
4. |
Calls on countries able to take the refugees in to make this known at the earliest opportunity in order to ensure that they are not kept in detention; |
|
5. |
Calls on the Commission closely to monitor the situation of North Korean refugees in collaboration with the UNHCR and, if necessary, to provide appropriate financial aid; |
|
6. |
Calls on the Council and the Commission to address the question of North Korean refugees and asylum seekers during the forthcoming ASEM Summit (Asia-Europe Meeting) on 10 and 11 September 2006; |
|
7. |
Calls on the Government of the DPRK to observe the special procedures established by the United Nations Commission on Human Rights; |
|
8. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the Government of the Kingdom of Thailand, the Government of the Republic of Korea, the Government of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. |

The situation in Zimbabwe
European Parliament resolution on the situation in Zimbabwe
The European Parliament,
|
— |
having regard to its resolutions of 15 January 2004 (1), 16 December 2004 (2) and 7 July 2005 (3), |
|
— |
having regard to Council Common Position 2006/51/CFSP of 30 January 2006 renewing restrictive measures against Zimbabwe until 20 February 2007 (4), |
|
— |
having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 898/2005 (5) of 15 June 2005 extending the list of those persons in Zimbabwe targeted by the restrictive measures, |
|
— |
having regard to the International Crisis Group's report of 24 August 2006, ‘Zimbabwe: An Opposition Strategy’, |
|
— |
having regard to Rule 115(5) of its Rules of Procedure, |
|
A. |
whereas the appalling humanitarian, political, and economic situation in Zimbabwe continues to deteriorate, with the so-called Operation Murambatsvina (drive out rubbish) leaving 700 000 people destitute, with over 4 million Zimbabweans at risk of starvation and surviving on food aid, and political repression continuing apace, |
|
B. |
whereas the Zimbabwean Government has proposed the Interception of Communications Bill, which will allow the military, intelligence services, police and the office of the President to monitor e-mail correspondence, Internet access and telephone conversations, |
|
C. |
whereas the Senate elections of 26 November 2005 were a cynical act of political patronage designed to consolidate Zanu-PF's authoritarian grip on Zimbabwe, |
|
D. |
whereas the main political opposition in Zimbabwe, the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC), regrettably split into two factions in October 2005, |
|
E. |
whereas the development of Africa is a priority for Western democracies; recognising, however, that aid alone can achieve little and that African governments are expected to deliver their side of the bargain through a commitment to democracy, the rule of law and respect for human rights, |
|
F. |
whereas Zimbabweans suffer from an unemployment rate of over 70 per cent and the highest inflation rate in the world, |
|
G. |
concerned at reports by human rights organisations that migrants from Zimbabwe are vulnerable to mistreatment and abuse in South Africa, |
|
H. |
whereas the African Union (AU), the Southern African Development Community (SADC) and, in particular, South Africa have failed to take a strong enough stand against the reprehensible Mugabe regime, |
|
1. |
Condemns the Mugabe dictatorship for its relentless oppression of the Zimbabwean people and expresses its profound disappointment at the refusal of regional actors such as the AU, the SADC and South Africa to take a more robust stance against the regime's abuses and the failure to insist that the Zimbabwean Government should mend its ways and restore democracy and the rule of law; |
|
2. |
Demands that the Mugabe regime fulfil its pledge to provide housing sufficient for all those forced out of their homes during the atrocious Operation Murambatsvina campaign; |
|
3. |
Regrets that Zimbabwe's progress in the fight against HIV-AIDS is being undermined by the government's abusive practices such as its eviction programme, which has disrupted access to healthcare, and inadequate social welfare policies, which have further heightened the vulnerability of AIDS patients; |
|
4. |
Notes with great concern that Zimbabwe is currently experiencing one of the world's worst HIV-AIDS epidemics, with over 3 200 people a week dying from the disease; calls for the Zimbabwean Government to take urgent action to improve access to anti-retroviral treatment, which is currently received by only 8% of those infected with the disease; |
|
5. |
Refuses to recognise the legitimacy of the recently created Senate in Zimbabwe because a mere 15% of Zimbabweans participated in the discredited election process, the result of which was also guaranteed beforehand to favour Zanu-PF; |
|
6. |
Calls for the withdrawal of the Interception of Communications Bill, the Suppression of Terrorism Bill and the Non-Governmental Organisations Bill, all of which are likely to be used as pretexts for even tougher crackdowns on any opponent of the Mugabe regime; |
|
7. |
Expresses great consternation at the Mugabe regime's covert attempts to take control of the Zimbabwe Red Cross Society (ZRCS) by forcibly recommending the employment of regime members and supporters; notes that the ZRCS's largest donors are Denmark, the UK and other Member States; is fearful that this move will herald the use of ZRCS food support as a political weapon, thus depriving many vulnerable Zimbabweans of vital assistance; |
|
8. |
Strongly insists that the Mugabe regime must derive absolutely no financial benefit or propaganda value from either the run-up to the 2010 World Cup or the tournament itself; in this regard, calls on South Africa, the host nation, and on FIFA, to exclude Zimbabwe from participating in pre-World Cup matches, holding international friendly games, or hosting national teams involved in the event; |
|
9. |
Calls on Robert Mugabe to comply with his own promise to stand down, sooner rather than later, which would be the largest single step possible towards reviving Zimbabwean society, politics and economy, and for the commencement of positive transitional negotiations between Zanu-PF, MDC parties and other opposition movements; |
|
10. |
Welcomes the meeting that took place between the two MDC factions in South Africa on 26 August 2006 and calls upon all those opposed to the deplorable Mugabe regime to come together and to ensure that their activities provide the people of Zimbabwe with a firmly democratic, representative and united opposition, ready in all respects to assume the responsibilities of government, and to bring about political and economic change for the better in Zimbabwe; |
|
11. |
Applauds the Zimbabwean Congress of Trade Unions for its forthcoming protests against the appalling living conditions imposed on the people of Zimbabwe by the Mugabe regime and insists that such demonstrations should be allowed to proceed without police harassment; |
|
12. |
Recognises that the EU's targeted sanctions against both Zimbabwe and certain individuals in Zimbabwe have failed to have the desired impact on those directly responsible for the impoverishment of Zimbabwe and the hardships endured by its people; calls on the Council to ensure that all Member States rigorously apply existing restrictive measures, including the arms embargo and the travel ban, erring on the side of exclusion rather than permissiveness; |
|
13. |
Further calls on the Council to expand the scope of the sanctions and further to enlarge the list of individuals — which currently stands at 120 — so that it encompasses many more Zimbabwean government ministers, deputies and governors, Zanu-PF members, supporters and workers, in addition to their family members, and businessmen and other prominent individuals associated with Zanu-PF; |
|
14. |
Calls on China and other countries that continue to supply weaponry and other support to the Mugabe regime to desist from this and to join the international community in its efforts to bring about change for the better in Zimbabwe; |
|
15. |
Deplores the fact that at the same time as the United Nations is appealing for USD 257 million in humanitarian aid for Zimbabwe, the Mugabe regime has completed the USD 240 million procurement of twelve K-8 military aircraft from China; notes also that the Zimbabwean army has announced the purchase of 127 vehicles for senior officers, with another 194 to be purchased in coming months; |
|
16. |
Urges the UN Security Council to report on the human rights and political situation in Zimbabwe as a matter of urgency; |
|
17. |
Reiterates its demand for the SADC to close its regional peacekeeping training centre in Harare and relocate it within the territory of another SADC member state; |
|
18. |
Insists that all aid destined for Zimbabwe must be delivered through genuine non-governmental organisations and must reach the people for whom it is intended, with the least possible involvement of the Mugabe regime; expresses unease that the EU funded seven projects in Zimbabwe in 2005 at a cost of EUR 70 million, and further projects in 2006, including EUR 3,7 million through the EU Water Facility , and asks the Commission to give its assurances that none of the aid benefited the Mugabe regime; |
|
19. |
Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the governments of the Member States, the governments of the G8 countries, the governments and parliaments of Zimbabwe and South Africa, the Secretary-General of the Commonwealth, the Secretary-General of the United Nations, the Chairmen of the Commission and Executive Council of the AU, the Panafrican Parliament, the Secretary- General of the SADC, and the President of FIFA. |
