P5_TC1-COD(2003)0037
Position of the European Parliament adopted at first reading on 13 January 2004 with a view to the adoption of Directive 2004/..../EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on ship-source pollution and on the introduction of sanctions, including criminal sanctions, for pollution offences
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 (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (2),
Having regard to the opinion of the Committee of the Regions (3),
Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (4),
Whereas:
(1) |
The Community's maritime safety policy is aimed at a high level of safety and environmental protection and is based on the understanding that all parties involved in the transport of goods by sea have a responsibility for ensuring that ships used in Community waters comply with applicable rules and standards. |
(2) |
The material standards for ship-source pollution discharges in all Member States are based upon the Marpol 73/78 Convention; however, these rules are being ignored on a daily basis by a very large number of ships sailing in Community waters, without corrective action being taken. |
(3) |
Many Community ports lack appropriate facilities for receiving and treating waste; in order to combat intentional pollution, the EU should undertake, by way of a European plan, to set up the necessary infrastructure for degassing and cleaning vessels in all Community ports, which should be capable of dealing with several major difficulties simultaneously. |
(4) |
In order to ensure that all Community ports have adequate facilities to receive ship-generated waste and cargo residues, Directive 2000/59/EC (5) should be fully enforced without further delay. |
(5) |
The implementation of Marpol 73/78 shows discrepancies among Member States and there is thus a need to harmonise its implementation at Community level; in particular the practice of Member States relating to the imposition of sanctions for illegal discharges by ships shows significant differences. |
(6) |
Many Member States have not fully satisfied the European Community's expectations with regard to maritime safety, in particular by delaying the application of existing directives and regulations. |
(7) |
Measures of a dissuasive nature form an integral part of the Community's maritime safety policy, as they ensure a link between the responsibility of each of the parties involved in the transport of polluting goods by sea and their exposure to sanctions; in order to achieve effective protection of the environment, there is therefore a need for effective, dissuasive and proportionate sanctions. |
(8) |
Neither the international regime for the civil liability and compensation of oil pollution nor that relating to pollution by other hazardous or noxious substances provide sufficient dissuasive effects to discourage each of the parties involved in the transport of hazardous cargoes by sea from engaging in substandard practices; the required dissuasive effects can only be achieved through the introduction of sanctions of a penal nature, which apply to any person who causes or contributes to marine pollution deliberately or through gross negligence. |
(9) |
Legal persons should also be subject to sanctions throughout the Community, because breaches may be committed in the interest of legal persons or on their behalf. |
(10) |
Measures of a penal nature are not related to the civil liability of the parties concerned and are thus not subject to any rules relating to the limitation or channelling of civil liabilities, nor do they limit the efficient compensation of victims of pollution incidents. |
(11) |
There is a need for effective cooperation among Member States to ensure that illegal discharges are detected in time and that the offenders are identified. For this reason, the Commission should present as rapidly as possible a proposal for the creation of a common European coastguard . |
(12) |
In order to ensure that criminal sanctions against intentional pollution are effective, the port state control authorities should maintain registers of oil; each Member State must therefore introduce stringent legislation against any failure to maintain those registers and any entry of which the authenticity cannot be established, in order to prevent illegal discharges which are the source of most marine pollution. |
(13) |
The Directive is in accordance with the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty. The incorporation of the international ship-source pollution standards into Community law and the establishment of sanctions, including criminal sanctions, for violations of them is a necessary measure to achieve a high level of safety and environmental protection in maritime transport. This can be effectively achieved only by the Community by means of harmonised rules. The Directive does not go beyond what is necessary for that purpose. |
(14) |
Those accused of pollution offences are entitled to a fair and independent hearing and any penalties imposed should be proportionate to the criminal offence. The Directive therefore fully respects the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union (6) and the provisions relating to justice contained therein , |
HAVE ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:
Article 1
Purpose
The purpose of this Directive is to incorporate the international standards for ship-source pollution into Community law and to ensure that each person responsible for illegal discharges is subject to adequate sanctions, including criminal sanctions.

Position of the European Parliament adopted at first reading on 13 January 2004 with a view to the adoption of European Parliament and Council Regulation (EC) No .../2004 on the transfer of cargo and passenger ships between registers within the Community
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),
After consulting the Committee of the Regions,
Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (2),
Whereas:
(1) |
The establishment and functioning of the internal market involve the elimination of technical barriers to the transfer of cargo and passenger ships between the registers of Member States. Measures to facilitate the transfer of cargo and passenger ships within the Community are also required to reduce the costs and administrative procedures involved in a change of register within the Community, thereby improving the operating conditions and the competitive position of Community shipping. |
(2) |
It is necessary, at the same time, to safeguard a high level of ship safety and environmental protection, in compliance with International Conventions. |
(3) |
The requirements set out in the 1974 International Convention for the Safety of life at Sea (1974 SOLAS), the 1966 International Convention on Load Lines (LL 1966) and the 1973 International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships, as amended by the 1978 Protocol (MARPOL 73/78) provide for a high level of ship safety and environmental protection. The International Convention on Tonnage Measurement of Ships, 1969 provides for a uniform system for the measurement of the tonnage of merchant ships. |
(4) |
The international regime applicable to passenger ships has been strengthened and refined through the adoption of a considerable number of amendments to 1974 SOLAS by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and an increased convergence of the interpretations of the 1974 SOLAS rules and standards. |
(5) |
The transfer of cargo and passenger ships flying the flag of a Member State between the registers of Member States should not be impeded by technical barriers, provided that the ships have been certified as complying with the provisions of relevant international Conventions by Member States or, on their behalf, by the organisations recognised under Council Directive 94/57/EC of 22 November 1994, on common rules and standards for ship inspection and survey organisations and for the relevant activities of maritime administrations (3). |
(6) |
A Member State receiving a ship should however remain able to apply rules which differ in scope and nature from those referred to in the Conventions listed in Article 2(a). |
(7) |
In order to ensure a prompt and informed decision by the Member State of the receiving register, the Member State of the losing register should provide it with all relevant available information on the ship's condition and equipment. The Member State of the receiving register should, nevertheless, be able to subject the ship to an inspection to confirm its condition and equipment. |
(8) |
Ships which have been refused access to Member States' ports under Council Directive 95/21/EC of 19 June 1995, concerning the enforcement, in respect of shipping using Community ports and sailing in the waters under the jurisdiction of the Member States, of international standards for ship safety, pollution prevention and shipboard living and working conditions (port State control) (4) or which have been detained more than once following an inspection in the port during the three years preceding the application for registration should not be able to benefit from the possibility of being transferred under the simplified system to another register within the Community. |
(9) |
Relevant International Conventions leave important points of interpretation of the requirements to the discretion of the Parties. On the basis of their own interpretation, Member States issue to all ships flying their flags, that are subject to the provisions of relevant International Conventions, certificates certifying their compliance with these provisions. Member States enforce national technical regulations, some provisions of which contain requirements other than those in the Conventions and in associated technical standards. An appropriate procedure should therefore be established in order to reconcile divergences in the interpretation of existing requirements which may occur upon a request for transfer of register. |
(10) |
In order to enable the implementation of this Regulation to be monitored, Member States should provide the Commission with succinct yearly reports. In the first yearly report Member States should identify any measures taken to facilitate the implementation of this Regulation. |
(11) |
The provisions of Council Regulation (EEC) No 613/91 of 4 March 1991 on the transfer of ships from one register to another within the Community (5), are significantly reinforced and extended by this Regulation. Regulation (EEC) No 613/91 should therefore be repealed. |
(12) |
The measures necessary for the implementation of this Regulation should be adopted in accordance with Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission (6), |
HAVE ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Purpose
The purpose of this Regulation is to eliminate technical barriers to the transfer of cargo and passenger ships flying the flag of a Member State between the registers of the Member States while, at the same time, ensuring a high level of ship safety and environmental protection, in accordance with International Conventions.

ANNEX 1a 1. The decommissioning funds shall be created from contributions by operators of nuclear installations during their operation, in order to reach a level of resources, at the time of the final shutdown, sufficient to cover all expenses related to decommissioning and waste management as defined in paragraph 2. 2. Contributions shall be made to the fund in line with the case of a nuclear installation whose operation will cease before the end of its estimated service life and with the estimated original service life of the installation and with the decommissioning and radioactive waste management strategies chosen, in such a manner as to cover, in particular, decommissioning of the installation; safe, long-term management of the conventional and radioactive wastes from decommissioning of the installation; and safe, long-term management of the spent fuel from nuclear power stations and of the wastes from reprocessing operations not already fully covered as an operational cost. 3. The assets of the funds shall be managed in a manner ensuring liquidity compatible with the timetable for the decommissioning and waste management obligations and the costs set out in paragraph 2. 4. The assets of the funds are to be used only to cover the costs set out in paragraph 2 in line with the decommissioning strategy and may not be used for other purposes. To this end, the decommissioning funds shall be duly established with their own legal personality, separate from the operator of the installation. 5. In the case of a nuclear installation whose operation will cease before the entry into force of the legislative, regulatory and administrative provisions set out in article 10 of this Directive; or within... [period to be decided] of the entry into force of these provisions, approaches other than the creation of decommissioning funds as required by this Directive may be taken. 6. Member States shall define the method by which the necessary resources for decommissioning, already accumulated by the operator before the entry into force of measures taken to implement this Directive, shall be transferred. These transfers must take place within one year from the date envisaged in Article 8. |

(7) Although the radiation protection system created by the basic standards in force ensures a high level of protection for the health of the population based on current scientific knowledge on this subject, this must be supplemented by strict application of safety standards designed to anticipate and control the risks of exposure for the population. In nuclear installations in particular, keeping up high safety standards at all stages from conception to decommissioning by maintaining effective defences against radiological risks and preventing accidents which could have radiological consequences is a sine qua non in order fully to attain the objectives of health protection set out in Article 2(b) of the Treaty. |

At present, this diversity of standards does not allow the Community to satisfy itself that the health protection requirements of Article 2(b) of the Treaty are always applied in the best possible way. In order for the Community to ensure that the uniform safety standards as required by this provision are applied, these basic standards for radiation protection must be supplemented by common safety standards to the extent necessary to eliminate hazards to the life and health of the public. |

(11) Safe decommissioning of nuclear installations, including the long-term management of radioactive waste and spent nuclear fuel, calls for substantial financial resources. In order to avoid any danger to human health or to the environment, it is necessary to guarantee at Community level that sufficient financial resources will be available to complete decommissioning activities at nuclear installations in conformity with safety standards. To this end, specific rules must be put in place for the establishment of decommissioning funds to which operators of nuclear installations will have to contribute regularly throughout the productive service life of the installations. In order to guarantee the availability and the adequacy of funds for decommissioning operations it is necessary to set up, except in specific and properly justified cases, funds with their own legal personality separate from the operator of the installation. |
(11) It is necessary that adequate financial resources be available to support the safety of nuclear installations, even beyond their operational lifetime. Safe decommissioning of nuclear installations as well as the long-term management of radioactive waste and spent nuclear fuel call for substantial financial resources.

Arctic agriculture
European Parliament resolution on Arctic agriculture (2003/2051(INI))
The European Parliament,
— |
having regard to the goal set out in the Presidency Conclusions of the Luxembourg European Council on 12 December 1997 , according to which ‘European agriculture must, as an economic sector, be versatile, sustainable, competitive and spread throughout European territory, including regions with specific problems‧, |
— |
having regard to the Presidency Conclusions of the Berlin European Council on 24 and 25 March 1999 (point 20), which sought to ensure that agriculture would be multifunctional, sustainable, competitive, and spread throughout Europe, including regions with specific problems, and, in addition, capable of maintaining the countryside, conserving nature, and making a key contribution to the vitality of rural life, |
— |
having regard to the Presidency Conclusions of the Brussels European Council on 24 and 25 October 2002 (point 12), which stated that the needs of producers living in the disadvantaged regions of the present European Union should be safeguarded and that multifunctional agriculture would be maintained in all areas of Europe, in accordance with the conclusions of the 1997 Luxembourg European Council and the 1999 Berlin European Council, |
— |
having regard to its resolution of 9 March 1999 on a new strategy for agriculture in arctic regions (1), |
— |
having regard to its position of 5 June 2003 on the proposal for a Council regulation establishing common rules for direct support schemes under the common agricultural policy and support schemes for producers of certain crops (2), |
— |
having regard to its position of 5 June 2003 on the proposal for a Council regulation amending Regulation (EC) No 1257/1999 on support for rural development from the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund (EAGGF) and repealing Regulation (EC) No 2826/2000 (3), |
— |
having regard to its positions of 5 June 2003 on the proposal for a Council regulation amending Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products (4) and on the proposal for a Council regulation establishing a levy in the milk and milk-products sector (5), |
— |
having regard to Rule 163 of its Rules of Procedure, |
— |
having regard to the report of the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development (A5-0463/2003), |
A. |
whereas the cold climate is a permanent competitive handicap in the EU's subarctic farming regions, where the effective temperature sum in the growing season ranges from 400 °C to 1 300 °C; whereas the areas in question comprise Finland, the parts of Sweden north of Stockholm, parts of Scotland and the Alps and the northern coast of Estonia, |
B. |
whereas the short growing and grazing season resulting from the cold climate entails additional costs where arable farming and stockbreeding are concerned, |
C. |
whereas for every 100 °C drop in the temperature sum, yield falls by about 400 kg per hectare, |
D. |
whereas the range of crops suitable for growing in the EU's northern regions is narrow and the related processing costs are high, |
E. |
having regard to the higher transport and processing costs caused by long distances and low population density, |
F. |
whereas direct support for arable crops under the common agricultural policy is less generous in the EU's northern regions, even though the need is greater; whereas, in addition, the yield obtainable from the usable plant varieties is appreciably lower and the market value per kilogramme lower, |
G. |
whereas, when EU enlargement goes ahead, ten new Member States will join, each with different needs as regards agricultural support; whereas the problems for Community agricultural policy will be exacerbated by the broad spectrum of farming areas differing in social terms and in terms of natural conditions and economic imperatives, |
H. |
whereas the problems of the countryside in northern regions are being aggravated by the flight from the land and cuts in services; whereas agriculture still has an important role to play in preventing the depopulation of remote farming areas; whereas lost farming jobs are not easy to replace, |
I. |
whereas, in the reform of the common agricultural policy, greater emphasis has been laid on rural development measures; whereas rural development measures will in future become more important in guaranteeing the prerequisites for viable agriculture and in preventing the depopulation and maintaining the vitality of the countryside, especially in subarctic northern regions, |
J. |
whereas the northernmost parts of Finnish and Swedish Lapland do not have their own specialities apart from reindeer meat; whereas it is impossible to expand reindeer herding, because the number of reindeer cannot exceed the capacity of the winter pastures, |
K. |
whereas reindeer herding is an important means of livelihood for the Sami, northern Europe's only aboriginal people, |
L. |
whereas safe, high-quality foodstuffs are the fundamental starting point for a consumer-based food economy, |
M. |
having regard to the high educational and skill levels of farmers in northern farming regions, |
N. |
having regard to the high standard of environmental protection and the purity of water and the soil, |
O. |
having regard to the family farming model, also typically found in northern Europe, which guarantees farm animal health and welfare and enables crops to be grown using virtually no pesticides, |
P. |
whereas the Union is aiming to promote the use of renewable energy sources and the sustainable use of non-renewable natural resources, |
Q. |
whereas a thriving agricultural sector in turn helps to preserve the natural and man-made landscape, |
R. |
welcoming the fact that silage grass aid and the drying allowance were introduced under the common agricultural policy in 2000; whereas, however, these measures are insufficient to offset the problems caused by permanent climatic handicaps, |
S. |
welcoming the fact that the Union provides aid for less favoured areas (LFAs); whereas, however, the EU finances that aid only in part; whereas support for less favoured areas will become more important in future in ensuring the survival of agriculture and preventing rural depopulation when the common agricultural policy switches to an aid system decoupled from production, |
T. |
whereas in the common agricultural policy the Community has failed to take the problems of northern farming regions sufficiently into account; whereas, on the contrary, it has proved necessary in some countries to resort to supplementary aid payable from national resources, |
U. |
whereas the sustainable economic use of forests is of considerable significance to subarctic rural areas as a source of employment opportunities, |
1. |
Considers it essential to realise the goals charted in the conclusions of the European Councils in December 1997 in Luxembourg, March 1999 in Berlin, and October 2002 in Brussels, according to which agriculture has to be multifunctional, sustainable, competitive, and spread throughout Europe, including regions with specific problems; considers that agriculture in that form can, in addition, help to preserve the countryside and protect the natural environment and can make a key contribution to the vitality of rural life and to safeguarding the fragile social structure of rural areas; |
2. |
Believes that the rules governing international agricultural trade have to recognise more clearly that production conditions vary in different parts of the globe and farming tasks are not confined to food production alone; |
3. |
Calls on the IGC to include a provision in the constitutional treaty recognising the permanent special status of sparsely populated regions in difficulty and enabling them to develop; |
4. |
Notes that changing the common agricultural policy is a task requiring a long time-frame, in which a fair-minded approach should be brought to bear in order to safeguard food production, not least in subarctic areas; points out that food production in those areas is impossible unless agricultural production pays; |
5. |
Urges the Commission, whenever it produces a significant agricultural proposal, likewise to make regional impact assessments specifying the effects of the proposal on, among other things, subarctic agriculture; |
6. |
Takes the view that direct aids under the common agricultural policy, based on the 1992 decision to reform agricultural and rural development policy, were not designed to allow for the special conditions in subarctic farming areas, although this would have been necessary once Austria, Sweden, and Finland joined the Union in 1995; |
7. |
Believes that, for as long as subarctic northern regions are not taken into account for direct aid purposes, provision should be made in rural development measures for northern regions, which pose difficulties, especially from the point of view of their natural conditions; considers that measures should likewise be possible to tailor to northern conditions; |
8. |
Believes that when the common policy for the countryside is reformed in the future, the criteria to observe should be such as to be suitable for northern farming regions and ensure that profitable agriculture and a sufficient income level will be objectives eligible for Community funding; |
9. |
Considers it important that public services should also operate in sparsely populated northern farming regions; |
10. |
Proposes that the Commission lay down clear definitions and criteria based on climate, the length of the growing season, low population density, and outlying position so as to ensure that permanent handicaps can be taken into account when support schemes are drawn up; |
11. |
Considers it important that subarctic farming areas should have the possibility of producing food locally, among other things for environmental protection and animal welfare reasons; |
12. |
Believes that agricultural entrepreneurship and motivation to work must be kept alive by maintaining the necessary linkage to production; |
13. |
Calls on the Commission to determine whether import protection is necessary as far as reindeer herding is concerned and stresses that, with the aid of Community support, reindeer herding could be developed as the local inhabitants so decide; |
14. |
Considers it important to promote research on subarctic agriculture and calls for such research projects to be funded under the EU framework programme; |
15. |
Considers that it should be possible to implement an appropriate policy on beasts of prey in a sustainable way at national level in order to enable traditional occupations to be carried on and to protect the safety of persons; |
16. |
Considers it important to foster entrepreneurship beyond traditional agriculture and forestry; notes that such activities generate additional income but cannot guarantee a sufficient livelihood unless farming pays; |

The operating framework for the European Regulatory Agencies
European Parliament resolution on the communication from the Commission: ‘The operating framework for the European regulatory agencies‧ (COM(2002) 718 — 2003/2089(INI))
The European Parliament,
— |
having regard to the Commission Communication (COM(2002) 718), |
— |
having regard to the White Paper on ‘European Governance‧ (COM(2001) 428) (1), in particular Chapter III.3.2, |
— |
having regard to Rules 47(2) and 163 of its Rules of Procedure, |
— |
having regard to the report of the Committee on Constitutional Affairs and the opinions of the Committee on Budgets and the Committee on Legal Affairs and the Internal Market (A5-0471/2003), |
A. |
pointing out that the general legislative framework for ‘executive‧ agencies entrusted with certain tasks in the management of Community programmes has been established in the form of a regulation adopted following consultation of the European Parliament, namely in Council Regulation (EC) No 58/2003 of 19 December 2002 laying down the statute of executive agencies (2), thereby providing the Commission with a valuable new management tool, |
B. |
noting that the establishment and implementation of the budget of all Community bodies which have legal personality and their own budget, both future executive agencies and all existing agencies, are henceforth covered by a specific regulation adopted following consultation of the European Parliament, namely Commission Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2343/2002 of 23 December 2002 on the framework Financial Regulation for the bodies referred to in Article 185 of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1605/2002 on the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities (3), and that under this regulation, discharge for the implementation of the budget is, in all cases, given individually by Parliament to the agency's director, |
C. |
noting, further, that the basic instruments relating to the existing agencies have been amended by Regulations (EC) No 1641 to 1655/2003 (4) so as to make the principle of the right of access to documents — provided for in Article 155 of the Treaty and further stipulated by Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 of 30 May 2001 (5)— applicable thereto and that a legislative regulatory framework for the externalisation of tasks incumbent upon the Commission in the form of agencies is thus finally beginning to take shape, and that certain key demands made by Parliament have been taken into account in this context, |
D. |
whereas it is essential to rationalise and standardise the structure of the present and future agencies in the interests of clarity, transparency and legal security, and in the light of a prospective Union with 25 Member States or more, |
E. |
whereas an urgent review of the present agencies is required, particularly as regards the extent to which their activities are worthwhile, the transparent performance of their duties, staff recruitment and promotion policy, appointments to posts and cost management at the agencies, |
F. |
whereas the current negotiations on the remit, structure and seat of the European Armaments Agency illustrate the limits of the intergovernmental approach, |
G. |
pointing out that Parliament, in paragraphs 16 to 18 of its resolution of 29 November 2001 on the White Paper on European Governance (6), took up a position on ‘autonomous regulatory authorities‧ stressing, inter alia, that the creation of new autonomous agencies presupposes that highly specialised scientific or technical expertise is required, that it must not lead to a reduction in judicial scrutiny by the Commission or to any watering down of the Commission's political accountability to Parliament and the Council, |
H. |
whereas the assessments to be made when setting up new agencies must be based on the most stringent criteria as regards the extent to which the agencies' activities would be proper and worthwhile, the decisions relating to the location of the agency, transparency in terms of tasks, appointments to posts and cost management, |
I. |
noting that the Commission also recognises in chapter 3 of its Communication, that it will always be for the legislator to decide on a case-by-case basis whether an agency should be created, how it should be organised and its relations with the institutions and the operators concerned, |
J. |
pointing out, further, that Parliament, in its resolution of 17 December 2002 on the typology of acts and the hierarchy of legislation in the European Union (7) took the view that implementing powers should rest with the Commission and, within their respective territorial jurisdictions, the Member States; it also added, however, that the legislative authority constituted by the Council and Parliament may delegate to a specialist agency or self-regulating body the task of laying down certain technical measures to implement laws, that the procedure for the adoption and scrutiny of delegated regulations should differ depending on whether the legislative authority confers responsibility for that task on the Commission or on a separate authority, a specialist agency or a self-regulating body, but that such a measure would be submitted to the two arms of the legislative authority in the same way as a Commission implementing measure (paragraphs 13, 16 and 17 of its resolution of 17 December 2002), |
K. |
pointing out that the draft Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe does not include a legal basis for the setting-up of agencies, but instead makes explicit reference to reviewing the legality of acts of bodies or agencies of the Union intended to produce legal effects vis-à-vis third parties, stipulating, inter alia, that acts setting up bodies and agencies of the Union may lay down specific conditions and arrangements concerning actions brought by natural or legal persons against acts of these bodies or agencies; pointing out, likewise, that the draft treaty also provides that bodies and agencies must respect the principles of transparency of the proceedings of Union institutions and the protection of personal data, |
L. |
pointing out that the Commission, both in its Communication and previously in the White Paper on Governance, focuses on future ‘regulatory‧ agencies, i.e. agencies ‘required to be actively involved in exercising the executive function by enacting instruments which contribute to regulating a specific sector‧ (page 4 of its Communication), but does not mention the fate of existing agencies and leaves aside agencies established outside the framework of the EC Treaty; whereas such an approach does not appear inappropriate in the context of reflection on new forms of ‘governance‧ which may be introduced ‘without departing from the law as it stands‧, it must not disregard, however, the fact that older agencies and those created on the basis of the EU Treaty also merit consideration and, as a matter of urgency, require proposals for modification in order to bring them into line with a common approach to be agreed between the institutions, |
M. |
noting that the Commission, whilst being open to the trialogue with Parliament and the Council and aware of the needs of individual cases, refers in its communication to certain ‘basic principles on which the system of the Union is founded‧ and refers to a number of desiderata regarding their functioning which it believes should be respected when future agencies are created, such as the balance of powers between the institutions, the principle of the unity and integrity of the executive function at European level and the principle of ultimate political responsibility of the Commission, |
N. |
confirming its attachment to the principle of democratic legitimacy of the Union's legislative activity (paragraphs 8 to 10 of the resolution of 29 November 2001), and whereas regulatory agencies as defined by the Commission — provided that they comply with the requirements of transparency and accountability — may provide a means by which Community institutions and the Member States, as well as the elements which they comprise, can participate in a new form of administration which will enable the Commission to refocus its resources on its primary tasks, increase the credibility of the regulatory process in a given sector and thereby contribute to ‘multiple-level-governance‧, |
1. |
Welcomes the Commission Communication following up the White Paper on Governance as a first step towards greater clarity in relation to the Commission's position in this field; |
2. |
Calls on the Commission to define the framework conditions for the use of regulatory agencies by adopting a framework regulation, as it has done for ‘executive‧ agencies, which should be preceded by an interinstitutional agreement spelling out common guidelines; |
3. |
Notes that the Commission, in its White Paper and Communication, has set out the basic conditions for the creation of regulatory agencies whilst stressing, in particular, that they may not be entrusted with a decision-making power which the Treaty confers directly on the Commission, or responsibility in areas in which they would be called upon to exercise any powers of political appraisal, and stresses, further, that the Commission starts from the principle that ‘these agencies may (...) be empowered to adopt individual decisions in a clearly specified area of Community legislation but not legislative measures of general application‧ (point 4.2 of the Communication); consequently, suggests that it might be preferable to avoid the term ‘regulatory‧ so as to rule out any misunderstanding; |
Creation of the agencies
4. |
Stresses that the creation of such agencies, in contrast to ‘executive‧ agencies, requires a legislative act and should be confined to the normal legislative procedure, i.e. the codecision procedure, and that the use of the procedure under Article 308 of the EC Treaty should be reserved for strictly exceptional cases; welcomes the change in the Commission's recent practice in this context; |
5. |
Considers that the autonomy of the new regulatory agencies should be exercised under the direct supervision of the Commission and monitored politically by the European Parliament on the basis of the powers vested in it by the Treaty; |
6. |
Takes the view that decisions on the location of any future regulatory agencies should form an integral and vital part of the basic instruments establishing them and that, in accordance with criteria on transparency, efficiency, and scrutiny of costs, the seats of the agencies should be near those of the authorities which are to supervise them; |
7. |
Stresses that the choice in favour of creating an agency must be justified in each case on the basis of an external cost-benefit assessment, taking account of the nature of the tasks to be allocated, the need for non-statutory specialised staff and the desired degree of decision-making autonomy; |
8. |
Insists that use be made of sunset clauses whenever the continuity of the agency's tasks is not guaranteed or whenever its tasks, by nature, are limited in time; |
9. |
Notes that the basic instrument of an agency must guarantee that the agency respects the institutions' obligations as regards access to documents and the protection of personal data, as well as the rules on protection against fraud and protecting the Community's financial interests; |
10. |
Observes that the Financial Regulation and the Staff Regulations should apply to the regulatory agencies; |
11. |
Takes the view that, if an agency's creation is the result of a codecision procedure between Parliament and the Council on a proposal from the Commission, it should not be considered as calling into question the principle of the balance of powers between the institutions as regards the distribution of functions, a principle which, given the needs linked to the evolution of the Community system, must be seen from a dynamic perspective; |
12. |
Calls on the Commission, prior to submitting the legislative proposal concerning the setting-up of these agencies, to submit an assessment of the budgetary implications and the viability of such agencies in comparison with centralised and similar activities and to make specific proposals for restructuring administrative and staff resources with a view to avoiding additional operational costs; |
Functioning of the agencies
13. |
Notes that, among the 15 existing agencies based on the EC Treaty, no fewer than 12 types of structure can be distinguished and 10 variants in the composition of the administrative board, which comprises at least one representative for each Member State in 10 cases; notes, further, that the head of the agency's executive is appointed by the administrative board on a proposal from the Commission in seven cases, but is in other cases appointed by the Commission on a proposal from the administrative board or by the Council on the basis of a list of candidates drawn up by the administrative board or by the Commission; |
14. |
Takes the view that such a multitude of different forms is neither transparent nor comprehensible and, even bearing in mind the differences in tasks, is not justified; |
15. |
Supports, therefore, the Commission's efforts aimed at establishing a limited number of models, at least for future agencies responsible for contributing to the regulation of a particular sector, and agrees that a distinction should be drawn in this context only between ‘decision-making‧ agencies, which are empowered to enact legal instruments binding on third parties, and ‘executive‧ agencies which have no such power; |
16. |
Takes the view that the structure of future agencies may be differentiated in line with the degree of communitarisation in a specific area, and that it must aim to establish clear chains of responsibility whilst guaranteeing that the agency enjoys the necessary autonomy and credibility; |
17. |
Takes the view that the structure of current and future agencies merits in-depth consideration at interinstitutional level and wishes already to make the following contribution:
|
Scrutiny of the agencies
18. |
Takes the view that scrutiny of the legality of the agency's legal acts must be dealt with clearly and comprehensibly in the instrument establishing that agency, which, depending on the nature of the agency's tasks, provides that the Court of Justice is responsible for ruling on appeals made against acts of the agency under the conditions laid down in Article 230 of the EC Treaty, that administrative complaints against the agency's acts may be brought before the Commission and that an appeal for annulment might then be brought against the Commission's decision before the Court of Justice. Alternatively, the instrument establishing the agency may stipulate that the agency's acts are, firstly, subject to an internal appeal before independent boards of appeal and that their decisions may then be submitted to the Court's consideration; |
19. |
Takes the view that, in addition to the obligation to submit accounts within the framework of the annual discharge procedure, it is indispensable to carry out a regular external evaluation of each agency's activity and to submit a report thereon to Parliament, the Commission and the Council; |
20. |
Stresses that, in brief, external scrutiny of the agencies must comprise the following elements: judicial supervision as described, financial and budgetary control exercised jointly by Parliament, the Council and the Court of Auditors when the budget is drawn up and adopted and during the discharge procedure, political scrutiny exercised primarily by Parliament, in particular through informal monitoring of the agency's work by the specialised parliamentary committees, scrutiny by the European Ombudsman in order to ascertain that administration is in accordance with sound management principles, and supervision by the agency's ‘users‧ and the general public; |
21. |
Recalls that the regulations concerning investigations conducted by the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) (9) provide for the Office to open and conduct administrative investigations within the institutions, bodies or agencies established by or on the basis of the EC and Euratom Treaties, and considers it vital that the agencies should be required to submit to the investigative powers of the Office under the same conditions as the institutions; |
22. |
Encourages its standing committees whose powers and responsibilities concern the agencies to intensify and develop their methods for the informal monitoring of agencies' activities by appointing permanent rapporteurs, examining annual work programmes and reports, sending the rapporteur or delegations to visit the agency or inviting the director to committee meetings; |
23. |
Calls upon the Conference of Committee Chairmen to review cooperation among the committees in this area and, in particular, cooperation among the specialised committees on the one hand and the Committee on Budgets and the Committee on Budgetary Control on the other, and to update the ‘guidelines‧ adopted in July 1998; |
Other agencies
24. |
Stresses that the Commission should conduct a review of all the existing agencies with a view to proposing possible amendments to their basic instruments so as to adapt them to the models to be defined for the purposes of the future regulatory framework; |
25. |
Notes that the legislative environment of the agencies is changing with the draft Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe, particularly with the disappearance of the pillars and the introduction of a hierarchy of legislation making provision for delegated regulations. It will consequently be necessary to check whether the differences between agencies based on the EC Treaty and those based on the EU Treaty are still justified, and suggests to the Commission that it consider this question as of now; |
26. |
Recalls that the Charter of Fundamental Rights incorporated in the draft Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe provides for the establishment of an authority to monitor compliance with the rules guaranteeing the right to the protection of personal data; |
27. |
Points out, finally, in this context, the need to codify the law governing administrative procedures so as to provide greater clarity and legal security to the general public as well as to those involved in these procedures, including the European agencies; |
