– having regard to the letter of the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs,


A. whereas the European Union has set up the appropriate legislative and budgetary instruments to provide additional support to workers who are suffering from the consequences of major structural changes in world trade patterns and to assist their reintegration into the labour market,

B. whereas the scope of the EGF was broadened for applications submitted from 1 May 2009 to include support for workers made redundant as a direct result of the global financial and economic crisis,

C. whereas the Union’s financial assistance to workers made redundant should be dynamic and made available as quickly and efficiently as possible, in accordance with the Joint Declaration of the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission adopted during the conciliation meeting on 17 July 2008, and having due regard for the IIA of 17 May 2006 in respect of the adoption of decisions to mobilise the EGF,

E. whereas the application fulfils the eligibility criteria set up by the EGF Regulation,

1. Requests the institutions involved to make the necessary efforts to accelerate the mobilisation of the EGF;

2. Recalls the institutions’ commitment to ensuring a smooth and rapid procedure for the adoption of the decisions on the mobilisation of the EGF, providing one-off, time-limited individual support geared to helping workers who have suffered redundancies as a result of globalisation and the financial and economic crisis; emphasises the role that the EGF can play in the reintegration of workers made redundant into the labour market;

3. Stresses that, in accordance with Article 6 of the EGF Regulation, it should be ensured that the EGF supports the reintegration of individual redundant workers into employment; reiterates that assistance from the EGF must not replace actions which are the responsibility of companies by virtue of national law or collective agreements, nor measures restructuring companies or sectors;

4. Notes that the information provided on the coordinated package of personalised services to be funded from the EGF includes detailed information on the complementarity with actions funded by the Structural Funds; reiterates its call to present a comparative evaluation of these data in its annual reports as well, including an evaluation of the effects these temporary and personalised services have on the long-term reintegration into the labour market of the workers who have been made redundant;

5. Welcomes the fact that, in the context of mobilising the EGF, an alternative source of payment appropriations to unused European Social Fund has been proposed by the Commission, following the frequent reminders by the European Parliament that the EGF was created as a separate specific instrument with its own objectives and deadlines and that appropriate budget lines for transfers must therefore be identified;

6. Notes however that, in order to mobilise the EGF for this case, payment appropriations will be transferred from a budget line dedicated to the support of SMEs and innovation; regrets the severe shortcomings of the Commission when implementing the programmes on competitiveness and innovation, particularly during an economic crisis which should significantly increase the need for such support;

7. Recalls that the functioning and the added value of the EGF should be evaluated in the context of the general assessment of the programmes and various other instruments created by the IIA of 17 May 2006 within the process of the 2007-2013 Multiannual Financial Framework mid-term review;

8. Welcomes the new format of the Commission’s proposal, which presents in its explanatory memorandum clear and detailed information on the application, analyses the eligibility criteria and explains the reasons which led to its approval, which is in line with Parliament’s requests;

view to the adoption of Regulation (EU) No .../2010 of the European Parliament and of the

Council amending Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 (Single CMO Regulation) as

regards the aid granted in the framework of the German Alcohol Monopoly


Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular the

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

After transmission of the draft legislative act to the national parliaments,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee1,

Acting in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure2,

1 Opinion of 15 September 2010 (not yet published in the Official Journal) . 2 Position of the European Parliament of 23 November 2010.

36 /PE 453.165

EN

Whereas:

(1) The specific rules on the aid that Germany may grant in the framework of the German Alcohol Monopoly ("the Monopoly") as provided for in Article 182(4) of Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation)1 will expire on 31 December 2010.

(2) According to the report submitted by the Commission pursuant to Article 184(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007, the importance of the Monopoly has decreased in recent years. Between 2001 and 2008, about 70 agricultural bonded distilleries (landwirtschaftliche Verschlussbrennereien) left the Monopoly. The volumes sold by the Monopoly have fallen since 2003 and the budget decreased from EUR 110 million in 2003 to EUR 80 million in 2008. Some distilleries have thus already made efforts to prepare for their entry into the free market by creating cooperatives, investing in less energy-consuming equipment to reduce production costs and increasingly marketing their alcohol directly. However, more time is needed to facilitate this adaptation process, and to enable distillers to survive on the free market. An extension of several more years is deemed necessary to complete the process of abolishing the Monopoly, as well as the aid, and to allow for its definitive phasing-out.

1 OJ L 299, 16.11.2007, p. 1.

PE 453.165\ 37

EN

(3) In some parts of Germany, alcohol distilleries are traditionally linked to small- and medium-sized farms and play an important role for the farms to continue their activities by providing an additional income to farmers and securing employment in rural areas. Agricultural bonded distilleries processing mainly cereals and potatoes should therefore continue to be able to receive aid through the Monopoly until 31 December 2013. By that date, all bonded distilleries should have entered the free market. This deadline also coincides with the beginning of the new programming period for rural development 2014-2020, meaning, for Germany, the possibility of transferring parts of the funds used for the Monopoly into its rural development programme.

(4) The small-scale flat-rate distilleries (Abfindungsbrennereien), distillery users (Stoffbesitzer) and fruit cooperative distilleries (Obstgemeinschaftsbrennereien) contribute in particular to the preservation of traditional landscapes and biodiversity by helping to preserve orchards, which supply distillers with raw material. Taking this into account, as well as the fact that the production of those distilleries is local and very limited, they should continue to be able to benefit from the aid granted under the Monopoly for a final period until 31 December 2017. By this date, the Monopoly is to be abolished. In order to ensure that this aid is indeed in the course of being phased out, Germany should present, on a yearly basis, annual phasing-out plans as from 2013.

38 /PE 453.165

EN

(5) The production of ethyl alcohol in the framework of the Monopoly is limited and corresponds at present to less than 10 % of the total production of ethyl alcohol of agricultural origin in Germany. Since, in particular, all bonded distilleries will have entered the free market by 31 December 2013, that percentage will decrease considerably after that date.

(6) In order to ensure continuity in the granting of the aid, this Regulation should apply from 1 January 2011.

(7) Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 should therefore be amended accordingly,

HAVE ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

PE 453.165\ 39

Article 1

In Article 182 of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007, paragraph 4 is replaced by the following:

"4. The derogation contained in the second paragraph of Article 180 of this Regulation

shall apply to aid payments granted by Germany in the existing national framework of

the German Alcohol Monopoly ('the Monopoly') for products marketed after further

transformation by the Monopoly as ethyl alcohol of agricultural origin listed in Annex

I to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). That derogation

shall operate only until 31 December 2017, shall be without prejudice to the

application of Article 108(1) and the first sentence of Article 108(3) TFEU and shall

be conditional upon compliance with the following provisions:

(a) the total production of ethyl alcohol under the Monopoly benefiting from the aid shall

gradually decrease from the maximum of 600 000 hl in 2011, to 420 000 hl in 2012

and to 240 000 hl in 2013 and may amount to a maximum of 60 000 hl per year

from 1 January 2014 until 31 December 2017, on which date the Monopoly shall cease

to exist;

40 /PE 453.165

EN

(b) the production by agricultural bonded distilleries benefiting from the aid shall

gradually decrease from 540 000 hl in 2011, to 360 000 hl in 2012 and 180 000

hl in 2013. By 31 December 2013, all agricultural bonded distilleries shall leave

the Monopoly. Upon leaving the Monopoly, each agricultural bonded distillery

shall be allowed to receive a compensatory aid of EUR 257,50 per hl of nominal

distilling rights within the meaning of the applicable German legislation. This

compensatory aid may be granted no later than 31 December 2013. It may,

however, be paid in several instalments, of which the last shall be no later

than 31 December 2017;

(c) the small-scale flat-rate distilleries, distillery users and fruit cooperative

distilleries may benefit from the aid granted by the Monopoly until 31 December

2017, on condition that the production benefiting from the aid does not

exceed 60 000 hl per year;

(d) the total amount of aid paid from 1 January 2011 to 31 December 2013 shall not

exceed EUR 269,9 million and the total amount of aid paid from 1 January 2014

to 31 December 2017 shall not exceed EUR 268 million; and

PE 453.165\ 41

EN

(e) before 30 June each year Germany shall submit a report to the Commission on

the functioning of the Monopoly and the aid granted in the framework thereof in

the previous year. The Commission shall forward that report to the European

Parliament and the Council. Moreover, the annual reports to be submitted in the

years 2013 to 2016 shall include an annual phasing-out plan for the following

year concerning the small-scale flat-rate distilleries, distillery users and

fruitcooperative distilleries.".

Article 2 Entry into force

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union. It shall apply from 1 January 2011.

an "international non-proprietary name" (INN) from the World Health Organization and

specified products used for the manufacture of finished pharmaceuticals


Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 207 thereof,




Whereas:

(1) In the course of the Uruguay Round negotiations, the Community and a number of countries agreed that duty-free treatment should be granted to pharmaceutical products falling within the Harmonised System (HS) Chapter 30 and HS headings 2936, 2937, 2939 and 2941 as well as to designated pharmaceutical active ingredients bearing an "international non-proprietary name" (INN) from the World Health Organization, specified salts, esters and hydrates of such INNs, and designated pharmaceutical intermediates used for the production and manufacture of finished pharmaceuticals.

(2) The results of the discussions, as set out in the Record of Discussions, were incorporated into the tariff schedules of the participants annexed to the Marrakesh Protocol to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) 1994.

(3) Participants concluded that representatives of World Trade Organization (WTO) members, party to the Record of Discussions, would meet under the auspices of the Council for Trade in Goods of the WTO, normally at least once every three years, to review the product coverage with a view to including, by consensus, additional pharmaceutical products for tariff elimination.

(4) Three such reviews have taken place with the result that a certain number of additional INNs and pharmaceutical intermediates used for the production and manufacture of finished pharmaceuticals have been granted duty-free treatment, that some of those intermediates have been transferred to the list of INNs, and that the list of specified prefixes and suffixes for salts, esters or hydrates of INNs has been expanded.

(5) A fourth review was deemed appropriate and was launched in 2009. It concluded that a certain number of additional INNs and pharmaceutical intermediates used for the production and manufacture of finished pharmaceuticals should be granted duty-free

treatment, that some of those intermediates already included in the pharmaceutical sectoral arrangement and its revisions should be transferred to the list of INNs, and that the list of specified prefixes and suffixes for salts, esters or hydrates of INNs should be expanded.

(6) Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff1 established the Combined Nomenclature (CN) and set out the conventional duty rates of the Common Customs Tariff.

(7) Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(8) In order to ensure that the measures provided for in this Regulation apply from 1 January 2011, it should enter into force on the day following that of its publication,


Article 1

Annexes 3, 4 and 6 of Section II of Part Three of Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 (Lists of pharmaceutical substances which qualify for duty-free treatment) are hereby amended as follows:

(1) As from 1 January 2011 the Union shall extend duty-free treatment to the INNs listed in Annex I.

(2) As from 1 January 2011 the list of prefixes and suffixes which, in combination with the INNs included in the pharmaceutical sectoral arrangement and its revisions, describe the salts, esters or hydrates of INNs which are also eligible for duty-free treatment, on condition that they are classifiable in the same six-digit HS subheading as the corresponding INN, shall be amended as set out in Annex II.

(3) As from 1 January 2011 the Union shall extend duty-free treatment to the pharmaceutical intermediates used in the production and manufacture of finished pharmaceuticals, listed in Annex III.

(4) As from 1 January 2011 the pharmaceutical intermediates listed in Annex IV shall be withdrawn from the list of such compounds receiving duty-free treatment.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

It shall apply from 1 January 2011.

(4) Pending the outcome of consultations on a new VAT strategy which is expected to address future arrangements and corresponding levels of harmonisation, it would be premature to set a permanent standard rate level or to consider changing the minimum rate level. The focus of the new VAT strategy should be to reform the

VAT rules in a manner that actively

promotes the objectives of the internal

market. The new VAT strategy should aim

at reducing administrative burdens,

removing tax obstacles and improving the

business environment, particularly for

small and medium-sized and labour-

intensive enterprises, whilst ensuring the

robustness of the system against fraud.

figure there are strong disparities between euro-area Member States,

B. whereas the average annual inflation stood at 0.3% and the medium to longer-term inflation expectations remained in line with the ECB aim to keep inflation rates below, but close to, 2%,

C. whereas the average general government deficit ratio in the euro area increased to about 6.3% and the public debt-to-GDP ratio rose from 69.4% of GDP in 2008 to 78.7% in 2009 in the euro area,

D. whereas the exchange rate for the euro against the USD fell from USD 1.39 on 2 January 2009 to USD 1.26 in mid-March 2009, recovered to a peak at USD 1.51 in early December 2009 and depreciated in 2010 to reach a minimum of USD 1.19 on 2 June 2010,

E. whereas the exchange rate for the renminbi against the euro was misaligned by the Chinese authorities during 2009, with an artificially strong euro against the Chinese currency,

F. whereas the ECB adjusted interest rates down to 1% and continued substantial and unprecedented non-standard measures to support credit; whereas the ECB balance sheet size has significantly increased throughout the year 2009,

G. whereas there have been signs of economic stabilisation in the euro area over the second half of 2009 and quarterly growth rates, though still weak, have turned positive, though these aggregated figures highlight that this trend has not been reflected in all its Member States, some of which remained in recession during the same period,

H. whereas the ECB expected a growth rate between 0,1% and 1,5% of real GDP in the euro area for 2010 before the sovereign debt crisis occurred in several countries within the euro area,

Introduction

1. Welcomes the fact that the Treaty of Lisbon came into force on 1 December 2009 and gives the ECB the status of an EU institution, which increases the responsibility of Parliament as the primary institution through which the ECB is accountable to the European citizen;

2. Welcomes the resumption of the Monetary Dialogue with the new European Parliament after the elections of June 2009;

3. Favours the adoption of the euro by Estonia on 1 January 2011;

4. Points out that, when it comes to actual price trends, monetary policy measures are only one factor among others, and that in recent years speculative tendencies in individual markets and growing and anticipated shortages of natural resources have played a particular part in pushing up prices;

5. Points out that these imbalances pose considerable difficulties for a suitable monetary policy within the euro zone; calls on governments, therefore, to coordinate their economic policies;

Economic and financial stability

PE 453.165\ 111

EN

6. Is deeply concerned that substantial macroeconomic imbalances between the euro zone economies continue to exist;

7. Considers that the financial crisis in some countries within the euro area is a serious matter for the euro area as a whole and reflects a dysfunction of the euro area; this shows the need for reform and for stronger coordination of the economic policies within the euro area;

8. Urges the Commission and the Central Bank to draw up proposals in line with the proposal by the Basel Committee on Basel III laying down binding rules for the introduction of an anticyclical buffer; calls on the Council, the Commission and the Central Bank to work towards the consistent and speedy implementation of the proposals when the Basel Committee proposals are ratified at G20 level;

9. Points to the fact that the principles of the Stability and Growth Pact were not always fully respected in the past; recalls that, if the objective to regain a balance of public finances and reduce indebtedness is a necessity for over-indebted states, this alone will not solve the problem of economic imbalances between countries of the euro area and, more broadly, of the EU; calls therefore for unrestricted and more coherent application of the Stability and Growth Pact; deems that the Pact should be complemented by the development of an early warning system to identify possible inconsistencies, e.g. in the form of a ‘European semester’, in order not only to enhance surveillance and strengthen economic policy coordination so as to ensure fiscal consolidation but also – beyond the budgetary dimension – to address other macroeconomic imbalances and strengthen enforcement procedures;

10. Believes that action must be taken now in order to start a gradual reduction of fiscal deficits and restore confidence in European public finances;

11. Notes that a monetary union needs strong and enhanced coordination of economic policies to be robust; regrets that in the Economic and Monetary Union the emphasis has largely been on the ‘monetary’ side;

12. Considers that Member States not following the rules of the euro area with regard to public finances and access to credible statistics should subjected to an enlarged and incremental spectrum of measures to ensure stricter compliance;

13. Believes that the lack of a predefined crisis management mechanism and the behaviour of some governments has made a rapid solution to the sovereign debt crisis in some Member States of the euroarea difficult and will weaken the EMU’s ability to react quickly in potentially similar situations in the future; calls therefore for a permanent crisis management framework;

14. Urges that financial support to EU countries in a debt crisis must be designed to encourage repayment of loans, budgetary balance and economic reform, and stresses the danger of turning loans into financial contributions while encouraging borrowing and the creation of debts;

15. Calls therefore on the Commission to put forward proposals to strengthen the Stability and Growth Pact by including specific targets for closing the competitiveness gap between European economies, in order to stimulate job-creating growth;

16. Shares concerns about possible speculation against the euro;

112 /PE 453.165

EN

17. Takes the view that credit growth and assets price developments in the EU and in Member States are crucial indicators for an effective monitoring of financial stability within the EMU and, more broadly, the EU;

18. Is concerned about continuous strains on the euro area sovereign bond markets reflected in widening spreads; deems that the flight to safety provoked by waves of panic experienced during the current financial crisis has had massive distorting effects and created costly negative externalities;

19. Asks for a timely implementation of the Regulation on Credit Rating Agencies (No 1060/2009) and welcomes the Commission proposal on amending Regulation No 1060/2009 on Credit Rating Agencies of 2 June 2010, but at the same time calls on the Commission to go further with proposals for the more rigorous surveillance of the operation of these agencies, for improving the liability of Credit Rating Agencies and for assessing the possibility of create a European Credit Rating Agency; underlines the fact that the rating of euro area sovereign debt has proved problematic during the crisis;

Governance and decision-making

20. Highlights the independence of the ECB;

21. Recommends that the ECB enhance the transparency of its work in order to increase its legitimacy and predictability. Transparency is also needed with regard to the internal models used to value illiquid collateral and the valuations assigned to specific securities offered as collateral;

22. Considers that, given the new legal status of the ECB under the Lisbon Treaty, the candidates for the Executive Board proposed by the Council should be subject to special hearings by the relevant parliamentary committee and then to a vote by the European Parliament; notes that, in addition, the role of the ECB has been crucial since the crisis and deems therefore that such a role should involve reinforced transparency and accountability;

23. Welcomes the conferral of legal personality on the Eurogroup by the Lisbon Treaty and the participation of the ECB in its meetings;

24. Points out the determination of the European Parliament to continue the Monetary Dialogue as an important element in the democratic scrutiny of the ECB;

25. Welcomes the proposal to establish a European Systemic Risk Board (ESRB), which will close the current gap in macro-prudential supervision; calls on the ECB to establish clear models and definitions to ensure the effective functioning and accountability of the ESRB; adds that any new tasks conferred upon the ECB with regard to the ESRB will not compromise the independence of the ECB in any way;

26. Notes that the concept whereby the ESRB only gives warnings and recommendations with no actual enforcement is not satisfactory in terms of effective implementation and responsibility; regrets that the ESRB cannot declare the emergency by itself;

27. Welcomes the proposal to hold hearings of the Chair of the ESRB before the European Parliament, in a different framework from the Monetary Dialogues;

PE 453.165\ 113

EN

Exit from the crisis

28. Believes that the revival of economic activity in the second half of 2009 was a result of the extraordinary measures taken by governments and central banks worldwide since the end of 2008 in the form of guarantees for bank liabilities, capital injections and asset support schemes;

29. Notes that the financial crisis in the euro area is a solvency crisis that initially manifested itself as a liquidity crisis; deems that such a situation cannot be resolved in the long term by simply pouring new debt and liquidity into highly indebted economies in combination with accelerated plans for fiscal consolidation;

30. Believes, similarly, that the crisis revealed a trend in the economic policies of recent years which have contributed to the current high level of public and private debt which will take many years to correct; deems that some parts of Europe will find it more difficult than others to tackle the consequences and developments of the crisis and achieve sustainable economic growth, new innovations and the creation of new jobs; underlines the need for reforms throughout Europe;

31. Recalls that, before the outbreak of the financial crisis, the ratio of public debt to GDP of the euro area and the EU as a whole, as well as the ratio for the majority of Member States, declined between 1999 and 2007 and that, by contrast, debt levels of households, firms and the leverage of the financial sector experienced a significant increase over the same period;

32. Recalls that the huge increase of public debt since 2008 in several Member States has been triggered by the fact these countries had to face excesses previously caused by an unsustainable growth of private debt and huge financial bubbles; believes therefore that the current crisis made it clear that the fiscal position is unsustainable if the financing of the private sector is unsustainable;

33. Notes that the crisis, together with subsequent ‘bail-outs’ and economic stimulus packages, has led to far-reaching austerity measures which are often overdue but which at the same time heavily constrain the capacity of governments to act;

34. Warns that these austerity packages should not lead to measures which could seriously dampen the economic recovery, which requires a new model of economic governance with instruments and a time schedule that will provide a balance between the process of fiscal consolidation and safeguarding needs in terms of investment in jobs and sustainable development;

35. Underlines that the lack of credit reaching the real economy, specifically for SMEs, stemmed from lower demand due to diminished activity in the real economy as well as from the reluctance of banks to grant credit;

36. Underlines that several Member States’ banks have been excessively reliant on liquidity provided by the ECB;

37. Notes that the non-standard measures which the ECB has introduced since October 2008 to support credit have been successful in avoiding a deeper recession and additional financial turmoil; reiterates that lifting these measures needs to be well timed and carefully coordinated with national governments and their activities, especially in view of the

114 /PE 453.165

EN

collective and simultaneous resorting to austerity measures in many Member States;

38. Is concerned, however, with the potential asymmetric impact of ECB’s exit strategy, given the substantial differences between euro area Member States regarding the business cycle;

39. Would welcome a move from the European Central Bank generally to accept government bonds from euro area countries as security in the context of repurchase agreements, thereby following the tried and tested practice used by the Bank of England and the Federal Reserve Bank;

40. Emphasises that a gradual exit from public deficits and the long-term sustainability of public finances are of crucial importance for the euro area as a whole;

41. Notes the number of proposals in the EU to complete the prudential arrangements, to manage the crisis and to regulate the shadow banking sector;

42. Shares concerns about the pro-cyclical aspects of the current regulatory, prudential, accounting and taxation rules which amplify the fluctuations that are inherent in the functioning of a market economy;

43. Highlights the need for a decisive increase in banks’ capital buffers and to enhance the quality of capital, and welcomes the Basel Committee’s proposals for a narrower definition of core capital and the introduction of higher capital ratios; also draws attention to the link between the financial and the real economy and the impacts that regulating one can have on the other;

44. Considers that the global financial system needs to be made less fragile and that lessons from the crisis must be drawn on a global level in order to reduce systemic risk, tackle financial bubbles and improve the quality of risk management and the transparency of financial markets, reaffirming that their basic role is to finance the real economy;

The external dimension

45. Notes that the euro had gained status as an international currency throughout 2009, but was subject to heavy pressure in 2010;

46. Points out that, during a period of high-level exchange rate volatility, the euro has increased its strength, particularly against the US dollar and the renminbi, and expresses concern that this could have a detrimental effect on the competitiveness of the euro area;

47. Acknowledges that the strength of the euro was partly due to weak economic activity in the US, where the current account deficit narrowed sharply to below 3% of GDP in 2009 and the federal budget deficit widened to about 10% of GDP in the fiscal year 2009, while the decline of the euro was, among other things, also connected to the lack of trust in global markets in some highly-indebted EU Member States; shares concerns about the expansion of the volume of money in the US and, to a lesser extent, in the EU;

48. Is concerned about the impact of exchange rate volatility and carry trade operations on both global financial stability and the real economy;

49. Underlines that, regardless of the current global financial and economic crisis, the euro area should be further enlarged, but points out that meeting the Maastricht criteria is regarded as

PE 453.165\ 115

EN

a precondition for euro membership; welcomes the quick adoption of the euro by all Member States which comply with these criteria;

50. Believes that the adoption of the euro by Estonia shows the status of the euro, despite the public debt crisis; believes that this status will encourage Member States to seek membership of the euro area;

General considerations

1. Recalls that the EU has committed itself to defining and pursuing common policies and actions to preserve peace, prevent conflicts, consolidate post-conflict rehabilitation and strengthen international security in accordance with the principles of the UN Charter, as well as to consolidate and support democracy, the rule of law, human rights and the principles of international law, and to assist populations facing natural or man-made disasters;

2. Points out that internal and external security are increasingly intertwined and that, by developing its crisis management, conflict prevention and peace-building policies and capabilities in line with the above objectives, the EU also helps to safeguard the security of its own citizens;

3. Underlines that the EU, mainly through its civilian crisis management, offers a distinct contribution to global security, reflecting its core values and principles;

4. Stresses that effective responses to present-day crises and security threats, including natural disasters, often need to be able to draw on both civilian and military capabilities and require closer cooperation between them; recalls that the development of the EU’s comprehensive approach and of its combined military and civilian crisis management capabilities have been distinctive features of the CSDP and represent its core added value; recalls at the same time that the CSDP is not the only tool available and that CSDP missions should be used as part of a broader EU strategy;

5. Recalls the need for an EU White Paper on security and defence, based on systematic and rigorous security and defence reviews conducted by the States according to common criteria and a common timetable, which would define the Union's security and defence objectives, interests and needs more clearly in relation to the means and resources available; emphasises that the White Paper should also define areas in which, and conditions under which, greater civilian-military cooperation is desirable to help achieve those objectives; takes the view that the EU White Paper should identify explicitly opportunities for the pooling of resources at EU level, as well as national specialisation and capability harmonisation, in order to achieve large economies of scale;

Enhancing civilian-military coordination

6. Emphasises that the establishment of the European External Action Service (EEAS) should contribute further to the development of a truly comprehensive European approach to civilian and military crisis management, conflict prevention and peace-building and provide the EU with adequate structures, staffing levels and financial resources to meet its global responsibilities in line with the UN Charter;

7. Fully supports the transfer of the CSDP structures, including the Crisis Management Planning Directorate, the Civilian Planning and Conduct Capability, the EU Military Staff and the Situation Centre, to the EEAS, under the direct authority and responsibility of the Vice-President of the Commission/High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy; recalls the pledge made by the Vice-President/High Representative to ensure that they work in close cooperation and synergy with the relevant Commission units transferred to the EEAS which deal with the planning and programming of crisis response, conflict prevention and peace-building; urges the Vice-President/High Representative to ensure that these units work on an equal footing with the CSDP structures; stresses that no formal or informal control by the CSDP structures of the planning and programming of measures financed from the Instrument for Stability is acceptable and insists that the transferred Commission structures must not be dismantled;

8. For the sake of the development of the EU's comprehensive approach, also encourages close coordination between the EEAS and all relevant units remaining within the Commission, in particular those dealing with development, humanitarian aid, civil protection and public health; stresses the need for direct links between the EEAS and CSDP agencies, namely the European Defence Agency, the EU Institute for Security Studies, the European Security and Defence College and the EU Satellite Centre;

9. Draws attention to the role of the Commission's Monitoring and Information Centre (MIC) in facilitating disaster relief coordination under the Civil Protection Mechanism and highlights the need for close cooperation between the centre and the EEAS to be ensured by the Vice-President/High Representative in her capacity as Vice-President of the Commission; calls for improved coordination and faster deployment of military assets in the context of disaster relief, in particular air transport capabilities, based on the lessons learned in Haiti and while respecting the primarily civilian nature of disaster relief operations; reiterates its call for further improvement of the Civil Protection Mechanism to establish a voluntary pool of Member States’ assets on stand-by for immediate deployment in disaster response operations; suggests that these assets be coordinated and deployed under the designation of an EU Civil Protection Force to increase the visibility of EU action; recalls at the same time the individual responsibility of the Member States for civil protection and disaster control measures;

10. Advocates also improved coordination between the Member State humanitarian agencies and DG ECHO for relief operations following natural or man-made disasters;

11. Calls on the Council to promptly adopt the necessary decisions to give effect to the mutual assistance clause as outlined in Article 42(7) TEU as well as the solidarity clause as outlined in Article 222 TFEU, which should reflect the EU's comprehensive approach and build on civil-military resources;

12. Recalls the successful development of the Peace-building Partnership between the

PE 453.165\ 119

EN

Commission and non-governmental organisations, and that good cooperation between non-governmental, civil-society organisations and the future EEAS is of crucial importance; calls on the Commission to further develop the framework for cooperation with NGOs and to promote the use of non-state actors in the Union's conflict prevention and conflict management activities, also by including them in EU training activities;

Strategic level

13. On the political-strategic level, welcomes the integration of civilian and military elements within the Crisis Management Planning Directorate (CMPD) as a step in the right direction; emphasises, however, the need to strike a proper balance between civilian and military strategic planning capabilities, not only in terms of numbers, but also with regard to hierarchy, in order to exploit to the full the synergies available; highlights at the same time the need to duly respect the differences between civilian and military roles and their distinctive objectives and to make sure that an appropriate mixture of human resources is allocated to each operation on a case-by-case basis;

14. In particular, urges the Vice-President/High Representative to address the shortage of staff as regards experts on civilian mission planning and capability development and to make sure that the CMPD includes a sufficient number of experts from all the priority civilian capability areas, namely police, justice, civilian administration, civil protection and monitoring, as well as in the area of human rights;

15. Emphasises the need, in routine phases, to develop a common situation awareness shared by all EU stakeholders (EEAS, but also all relevant units from the Commission: DG DEV, DG ECHO, DG SANCO, with the support of each of their crisis assessment capabilities), which should be reflected in all EU regional or country strategic papers; stresses that the reshaped EU delegations have a key role to play in this process;

16. Calls for an improved role for the Heads of EU Delegations and/or EU Special Representatives - when present in the area of crisis - in the civilian-military coordination efforts, also with a view to securing closer political oversight on the ground;

Operational level

17. On the operational planning level, calls for a significant strengthening of civilian planning capabilities to match the ambitions of civilian CSDP missions, by consolidating the Civilian Planning and Conduct Capability (CPCC) as regards staffing levels as well as by means of a better division of tasks between the strategic and operational levels; stresses that this division of tasks needs to be based on a balanced and comprehensive personnel strategy; takes the view that, in the light of the responsibilities of the Civilian Operations Commander, this function needs to be placed at an appropriate (i.e. higher) level within the EEAS hierarchy;

18. Reiterates its call for the establishment of a permanent EU operational headquarters, responsible for operational planning and conduct of EU military operations, to replace the current system of using one of the seven available headquarters on an ad hoc basis; stresses that such a move would guarantee a coherent chain of command and greatly increase the EU's capacity for rapid and consistent responses to crises (notably by enhancing the EU’s institutional memory) and also reduce costs;

120 /PE 453.165

EN

19. Takes the view that the operational headquarters should be placed alongside the CPCC in order to maximise the benefits of civilian-military coordination, including the pooling of certain functions, and to better promote best practices among EU planners; suggests even that the operational headquarters and the CPCC might be integrated into a joint EU 'Crisis Management Headquarters' that would be responsible for the operational planning and conduct of all EU civilian missions, military operations and security sector reform missions;

20. Emphasises, however, that due account needs to be taken of the differences between civilian and military planning and that separate chains of command need to be maintained, with a Civilian Operations Commander and a Military Operations Commander retaining their own competences and enjoying the same hierarchical status within the EEAS;

Building EU civilian and military capabilities

21. Points to the number of commitments that Member States have given regarding the development of both military and civilian crisis management capabilities, from the Helsinki and Santa Maria de Feira European Councils to the December 2008 declaration on strengthening capabilities; urges the Member States and the Vice-President/High Representative to ensure that these commitments are properly implemented so as to close the glaring gap between existing operational capabilities and the stated political goals;

22. In the context of the follow-up to the Headline Goals 2010, calls on the Member States to concentrate on the concrete delivery of capabilities and to focus on areas with the potential for civilian-military synergies, especially those already identified, in order to achieve genuine progress as soon as possible; stresses the need for capability development to be guided by specific requirements for CSDP missions; welcomes the Comprehensive Capability Development Process for military capabilities within the European Defence Agency; encourages further discussion on how to bridge the two capability development processes under the civilian and military headline goals;

23. Welcomes the efforts of the past and the current rotating Council Presidencies to start a process aiming at the clarification of the nature and scope of the Permanent Structured Cooperation (PSC) as outlined in Article 42(6) TEU; calls on the Council to deliver promptly a clear understanding of the PSC, taking into consideration the civil-military nature of the EU’s comprehensive approach, and to present concrete steps on how to start the PSC in view of the current financial crisis and decreasing national defence budgets among the EU Member States;

Staffing of missions

24. In the light of the political commitments given, calls on the Member States urgently to address the chronic shortfall in civilian personnel in CSDP missions, especially EULEX Kosovo and EUPOL Afghanistan, in particular by stepping up work to establish national strategies to facilitate the deployment of civilian mission personnel; urges that, as part of these strategies, the competent national authorities, such as ministries of the interior and justice, in close cooperation with the ministries of defence, should develop a more structured approach to the task of laying down appropriate conditions for the participation of civilian personnel in CSDP missions, especially as regards career prospects and remuneration;

25. In that context, calls on the Member States to ensure, in particular, that participation in

PE 453.165\ 121

EN

CSDP missions is regarded as an important advantage for career development in their police and justice systems and that the services that second civilians to these missions are appropriately compensated for the temporary loss of staff; takes the view that the Council should ensure that per diem rates for CSDP mission personnel are tailored to the circumstances of the mission in question;

26. Reiterates the need for compliance with United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325, which requires a gender-balanced staffing and training approach to all missions and a gender focus on all actions undertaken; stresses that an adequate number of women in civilian or military missions is a crucial condition for the success of those missions, be it in peacekeeping or disaster relief operations, as well as in diplomatic mediation, as a way to ensure that women’s needs, rights and interests are properly addressed and to ensure women's involvement in the actions and objectives of the mission; recalls that the EU Member States need to develop national Action Plans to ensure compliance with Resolution 1325;

Training

27. Stresses the need for appropriate pre-deployment training to be provided, which could include participation by civilian personnel in military exercises, including contingency rehearsals, and by military personnel in civilian training and/or exercises; strongly recommends that Member States maintain rosters of deployable civilians with relevant competences, in particular those trained for missions carried out alongside military forces; welcomes the practice employed by certain Member States of having a dedicated centralised agency responsible for the recruitment and training of all deployable civilian personnel;

28. Supports the development by the Council of the Goalkeeper software environment to facilitate the recruitment and training of personnel for civilian missions;

29. Recalls the European Group on Training financed by the Commission and stresses that one of its lessons learned is that investment in training needs to be linked to de facto deployments; welcomes the emphasis placed by the Commission on ensuring that the forthcoming civilian training project financed under the Instrument for Stability will target experts already identified for future deployment on missions;

30. Emphasises, in line with the 2008 Council recommendations, the enhanced role the European Security and Defence College (ESDC) should play in the field of capacity building and training for effective crisis management in the light of the setting-up of the EEAS; urges the Council to improve the training facilities and staffing of the ESDC, including by providing it with a permanent seat, in order to guarantee sustainable and effective training at the strategic, operational and tactical levels for civilian and military personnel of the Member States and EU institutions; calls for the creation of scholarships for young graduates willing to specialise in fields which are needed;

31. Calls for a preparatory action in order to develop and make available training on mediation and dialogue in the light of the establishment of the EEAS, in line with the 'Concept on Strengthening EU Mediation and Dialogue Capacities' adopted by the Council in 2009;

Rapid financing

32. Encourages further efforts to speed up the provision of financing for civilian missions and

122 /PE 453.165

EN

to simplify decision-making procedures and implementation arrangements; stresses the need for the relevant Commission departments to work closely and on an equal footing with the crisis management structures within the EEAS so as to allow rapid start-up financing of civilian missions; calls, for the sake of transparency and accountability, for one budget line to be created for each CSDP mission;

33. Calls on the Council to quickly take the appropriate decisions to establish the start-up fund as outlined in Article 41 TEU, after consulting the European Parliament; calls on the Vice-President/High Representative to inform Parliament regularly on the state of play once the fund has been set up;

Crisis management tools

34. Welcomes the development of the concept of Integrated Police Units (IPUs), i.e. robust, rapidly deployable, flexible and interoperable forces able to perform executive law-enforcement tasks, which, in certain circumstances, can also be deployed as part of a military operation and under military command; notes the successful application of this concept in Bosnia and Herzegovina as part of EUFOR Althea and in Kosovo within EULEX; highlights the need for such units, which are especially well-suited to intervening in non-stabilised situations and in particular during the transition from military to civilian command; recommends that Member States invest in the development of such capabilities;

35. In that context, fully supports the use of the European Gendarmerie Force (EGF), which can be placed under military or civilian command and provides a capability for the rapid deployment of expeditionary police missions, as a highly suitable tool for a range of effective crisis management operations, including post-disaster stabilisation missions; calls on all Member States which have police forces with military status to join the initiative;

36. Welcomes the progress achieved in developing the pool of experts for the Civilian Response Teams (CRTs) to provide a rapid assessment capability, but stresses that further extension of these lists needs to be achieved; highlights the importance of early-assessment and fact-finding capabilities in ensuring that the EU responds to crises using the most appropriate means available;

37. Stresses the need for the EU, in time of crisis, to be able to deploy multidisciplinary teams within the first hours of the crisis, which would be composed of civilian, military and civ-mil experts from the EEAS and the Commission;

38. Calls on the Vice-President/High Representative, the Council and the Commission to present a common understanding of the new CSDP missions as outlined in Article 43 TEU and how they will be handled in the context of the established civilian-military cooperation; encourages them in this context to speed up the establishment of a pool of security sector reform experts to enhance the EU's capability in this field;

39. Calls on the Member States to make optimal use of the existing tools and put in place impact evaluation mechanisms before formulating new, ambitious goals;

40. Is convinced that the EU battlegroups represent a suitable tool for crisis management operations; reiterates its call to the Council to increase their usability and flexibility; calls also for the improvement of their usability for civilian-military humanitarian relief operations, in full compliance with the revised Oslo guidelines for the use of military and

PE 453.165\ 123

EN

civil defence assets in disaster relief;

41. Urges the Member States to reach agreement on expanding the concept of common costs associated with the use of the battlegroups (costs to be financed through the Athena mechanism), or on common funding of the totality of the costs of crisis management operations carried out by them; takes the view that such an agreement is necessary to make their use politically and economically acceptable and ensure that the Member States on stand-by do not bear a disproportionate burden in a difficult budgetary situation; recalls in this regard that in November 2009 the Council invited the Council General Secretariat to elaborate ideas on the financing of military operations for discussion at high level in 2010, but no progress has been registered so far;

42. Calls on the Member States to conceive of the battlegroups as long-term partnerships and not to dissolve them after their stand-by period has ended, so that the resources invested in their creation are not wasted; calls for them to be trained to operate alongside civilian deployments; suggests even that they might include civilian units or experts within their set-up, in particular IPUs;

Providing the means for comprehensive crisis management

43. Calls on the Member States to look further into developing dual-use capabilities for CSDP civilian missions and military operations, in particular transport capabilities, and to ensure interoperability in training and practice, making better use of existing approaches and capabilities and interlinking the civilian and military capability development processes where appropriate;

Research and technology

44. Stresses that EU military and civilian personnel will increasingly be operating side by side and that they are to a large extent exposed to the same threats, such as improvised explosive devices, and in need of comparable capabilities in areas such as strategic and tactical transportation, logistical support, communication, intelligence gathering and evaluation systems, medical support, security and force protection, use of space capabilities, and unmanned vehicles;

45. Emphasises, therefore, the need to coordinate and stimulate investment in dual-use technologies and capabilities, so as to quickly close capability gaps whilst avoiding unnecessary duplication, creating synergies and supporting standardisation; recalls the essential role in this respect to be played by the European Defence Agency, in the process of identifying the needs in the capabilities field and also in pointing out the ways in which those capabilities should be shared, pooled or attained among the Union's members, in order to deliver deployable means for the successful and secure conduct and implementation of CSDP operations;

46. In that context, supports the establishment of the European Framework Cooperation for Security and Defence Research to ensure complementarity and synergy between defence R&T investment and research investment for enhancing civilian security by the Commission under the Research Framework Programme, for example in areas such as situational awareness, unmanned aerial vehicles, maritime surveillance, countering improvised explosive devices, CBRNE detection and protection, communication, intelligence gathering, evaluation and transfer of data, and cybersecurity;

124 /PE 453.165

EN

47. Notes, however, that this cooperation should not exceed what is necessary in the light of civilian-military cooperation in the areas of peace-keeping, conflict prevention, strengthening international security, crisis management and humanitarian aid;

48. Welcomes the open debate of the EU ministers of defence during their informal meeting in Ghent on 23 and 24 September 2010 regarding European defence research and their assessment of the role of the EDA as outlined in Article 42(3) TEU;

Rapid provision of equipment

49. Encourages further efforts to ensure that all the equipment needed for rapid crisis response activities, whether civilian or military, is readily available; welcomes ongoing work on an inventory management system for civilian CSDP missions; calls on the Vice-President/High Representative to carry out a comprehensive cost-benefit analysis to determine optimal solutions for each kind of equipment needed; takes the view that, depending on the type of equipment, the right combination of warehousing at EU level, framework contracts and virtual stocks of equipment owned by the Member States needs to be found;

50. Welcomes, in that context, the establishment of a temporary warehouse of civilian equipment in Bosnia and Herzegovina and calls for rapid progress in the setting-up of a permanent warehouse in order to better prepare the EU for civilian crisis management;

Multinational cooperation

51. Encourages further progress in the area of the pooling and sharing of assets as a cost-effective way of increasing capabilities, which is all the more relevant in a time of budgetary austerity; welcomes, in particular, activities to address gaps in strategic airlift capabilities, namely the creation, by a number of Member States, of the European Air Transport Command (EATC), as well as the European Air Transport Fleet initiative; encourages the Vice-President/High Representative and the Member States to follow the European Defence Agency's recommendations and to speed up work to identify other areas in which to apply the pooling and sharing principles, including in the field of training or mission support; welcomes in this regard proposals to establish a multinational helicopter wing modelled on the EATC to be used for both civilian and military tasks;

Partnerships

EU-UN

52. Recalls that the UN Security Council has primary responsibility for maintaining international peace and security; stresses, therefore, the need for close cooperation between the EU and the UN in the area of civilian and military crisis management, and in particular in humanitarian relief operations where the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) is in the lead role; calls for such cooperation to be strengthened particularly in theatres where one organisation is to take over from the other, especially in light of the mixed experience in Kosovo;

53. Urges the Member States to ensure that they make adequate contributions to UN missions and that they contribute in a coordinated fashion; calls on the Vice-President/High Representative and the Council to further explore ways in which the EU as a whole can better contribute to UN-led efforts, such as by launching EU rapid response 'bridging' or

PE 453.165\ 125

EN

'over the horizon' operations or providing an EU component of a larger UN mission;

54. Calls for improved monitoring of EU assistance implemented through UN organisations in line with the European Court of Auditors Special Report No 15/2009;

EU-NATO

55. Points out that, since 21 out of 28 NATO members are EU Member States, close cooperation between the EU and NATO is of vital importance to avoid duplication of effort in the deployment of military capabilities when the two organisations operate in the same theatre, this without prejudice to the principle of decision-making autonomy and with due respect for the neutral status of some EU Member States; reiterates the urgent need to resolve the underlying political problems hampering EU-NATO cooperation and calls for the complete and more effective implementation of the 'Berlin Plus' arrangements in order to enable the two organisations to intervene effectively in current and future crises;

56. Highlights the need to accord the same degree of transparency and involvement to non-EU NATO members and non-NATO EU members when joint activities are conducted, as stressed in the third chapter of the NATO 2020 report ('Albright Report');

57. Calls on the Member States that are members of NATO to make sure that the new Strategic Concept of NATO does not lead to unnecessary duplication of effort in the area of civilian capabilities, which would cause further strain on already scarce resources; is convinced that NATO should rather be able to rely on the civilian capabilities of other international organisations such as the EU and the UN;

58. Reiterates its support for closer EU-NATO cooperation in capability development and for compliance with NATO standards as far as possible; encourages further progress in the joint efforts to address the shortage of transport helicopters; welcomes initiatives to coordinate EU and NATO activities in the area of countering CBRN disasters and improvised explosive devices and providing medical support as matters of relevance to both civilian and military missions;

EU-OSCE-African Union

59. Underlines the need for closer EU-OSCE and EU-AU cooperation in their particular operational areas, improving early warning and ensuring exchange of best practices and expertise in crisis management;

Amendment 1

Proposal for a regulation

Recital 4


(4) The season for fishing anchovy in the Bay of Biscay runs from 1 July each year until 31 June of the following year. For the purposes of simplification, it is appropriate to provide for specific measures establishing the TAC for each fishing season and allocation of fishing opportunities between the Member States in a manner that complies with this management period and on the basis of the advice from the Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries (STECF). This requires therefore following a procedure different from the

procedure foreseen in Article 20 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.

(4) The season for fishing anchovy in the Bay of Biscay runs from 1 July of each year until 31 June of the following year. For the purposes of simplification, it is appropriate to provide for specific measures establishing the Total Allowable Catch (TAC) for each fishing season and the allocation of fishing opportunities between the Member States in a manner that complies with that management period and on the basis of the advice from the Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries (STECF). According to Article 43(3) of the Treaty

on the Functioning of the European

Union (TFEU), it is incumbent upon the

Council to adopt measures on the fixing

and allocation of fishing opportunities. In

view of the specificities of the anchovy

fishery in the Bay of Biscay, it is

appropriate that the Council establishes

those measures in a way that allows the

TACs and quotas to apply per fishing

season.

Amendment 2


Recital 7


(7) Where evaluation would show that the minimum spawning biomass level or the TAC levels established in the plan would no longer be appropriate, adaptation of the plan should be ensured. Considering that the establishment and allocation of

fishing opportunities are measures of

prime importance in the Common

Fisheries Policy and have a direct impact

on the socio-economic situation of the

fishing fleets of the Member States, it is

(7) Where evaluation would show that the minimum spawning biomass level or the TAC levels established in the plan would no longer be appropriate, adaptation of the plan should be ensured. The Commission

should therefore be empowered to adopt

delegated acts in accordance with Article

290 TFEU in respect of modifications to

the precautionary biomass level or the

TAC levels indicated in Annex I as

corresponding to the respective biomass

levels. It is of particular importance that

the Commission carry out appropriate

consultations during its preparatory work,

including at expert level.

Amendment 3


Recital 7 a (new)


(7a) The exploitation rule for setting the

TAC proposed in the plan is based on

estimates of spawning biomass for

anchovy made in May and June of each

year, immediately prior to the

management period for the fishing season

inhabiting the waters of the Community.

The biological information on this stock is not sufficient for a full stock assessment that would allow setting a fishing mortality target related to maximum sustainable yield and relate total allowable catches to scientific catch predictions. However, the index of egg abundance which is being calculated since 1977 in triennial international surveys can be used as a biological indicator for the development of the stock size.

Council amending Council Regulation (EC) No 708/2007 concerning use of alien and

locally absent species in aquaculture

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, Having regard to the Treaty of the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 43(2) thereof, Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission, Having regard to the opinions of the European Economic and Social Committee1,


Acting in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure2, Whereas: (1) Council Regulation (EC) No 708/20073 establishes a framework governing aquaculture

practices in relation to alien and locally absent species to assess and minimise the possible impact of those species and of associated non-target species on aquatic habitats. It provides ▌that introductions and translocations for use in closed aquaculture facilities may at a future date be exempted from the permit requirement of Chapter III of that Regulation, based on new scientific information and advice.

(2) The Community-funded concerted action, "Environmental impacts of alien species in

aquaculture" (IMPASSE), has delivered a new operational definition of "closed aquaculture facilities". For such facilities the degree of risk associated with alien and locally absent species could be reduced to an acceptable level if the potential for escape of the organisms to be farmed and of non-target organisms is addressed during transportation and if well-defined protocols are applied at the receiving facility. Introductions and translocations for use in closed aquaculture facilities should only be exempted from the permit requirement if those conditions are met.

(3) It is therefore necessary to amend the definition of "closed aquaculture facility" ▌from

Regulation (EC) No 708/2007 by adding specific features intended to ensure the biosecurity of those facilities.

(4) Member States should draw up a list of closed aquaculture facilities located in their

territory. For reasons of transparency, that list should be published and regularly updated

on a website created in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No 535/2008 of 13 June 20081 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of Regulation (EC) No 708/2007.

(5) Following these amendments certain other adaptations are needed to the Regulation, in

particular, to remove the references to "closed aquaculture facilities" in the definition of "routine movement" and from Annex I.

(6) The Commission should be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article

290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union in order to adapt Annexes I, II and III to technical and scientific progress, to amend Annex IV in order to add species to that Annex and to adopt specifications of the conditions necessary for adding species to Annex IV. It is of particular importance that the Commission carry out

appropriate consultations during its preparatory work, including at expert level. (7) The measures necessary for the implementation of this Regulation should be adopted

by the Commission by means of implementing acts in accordance with Article 291 of

the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. According to that Article, rules

and general principles concerning mechanisms for the control by Member States of the

Commission's exercise of its implementing powers shall be laid down in advance by a

regulation adopted in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure. Pending the

adoption of that new regulation, Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying

down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the

Commission2 continues to apply, with the exception of the regulatory procedure with

scrutiny, which is not applicable.

(8) The term "Community" used in the enacting terms of Regulation (EC) No 708/2007

should be changed, following the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon on 1

December 2009. (9) Regulation (EC) No 708/2007 should therefore be amended accordingly, HAVE ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1 Regulation (EC) No 708/2007 is hereby amended as follows:

(1) In Articles 2(1), 13, 15(2), 19 and 24(2) the noun "Community", or the corresponding

adjective, is replaced by the noun "Union", or the corresponding adjective, and any

grammatical adjustments needed as a consequence of this replacement shall be made. (2) ▌Article 2 is amended as follows:

species to be held in closed aquaculture facilities, provided that the transport is carried out under conditions that prevent the escape of those species and of the non-target species.

Member States shall draw up a list of closed aquaculture facilities in their

territory complying with the definition of the Article 3(3) and update that list regularly. By …+ the list shall be published on the website set up in accordance with Article 4(2) of the Commission Regulation (EC) No 535/2008.".

(3) Article 3 is amended as follows: (a) Point 3 is replaced by the following: "3. "Closed aquaculture facility" means a land-based facility: (a) where: (i) aquaculture is conducted in an aquatic medium which involves

recirculation of water and (ii) discharges do not connect in any way to open waters prior of

being screened and filtered or percolated and treated to prevent the release of solid waste to the aquatic environment and the escape of the farmed species and of non-target species from the facility that might survive and subsequently reproduce;

(b) and which:

(i) prevents losses of reared specimens or non-target species and other biological material, including pathogens, due to factors, such as predators (e.g. birds) and flooding (e.g. the facility must be situated at a safe distance from open waters following a proper assessment made by the competent authorities);

(ii) prevents in a reasonable way losses of reared specimens or non-

target species and other biological material, including pathogens, due to theft and vandalism; and

(iii) ensures appropriate disposal of dead organisms;";

(1) Council Regulation (EC) No 1407/2002 of 23 July 2002 on State aid to the coal industry expires on 31 December 2010 and in the absence of a new legal framework

allowing for certain specific types of State

increasingly important in the future.

Amendment 4


Recital 1 b (new)


(1b) Production capacity in the Union

coal mining industry lost through pit

closures will be made up by coal imports

into the Union, resulting in the Union

being supplied with coal from third

countries.

Amendment 5


Recital 2

PE 453.165\ 171

EN


(2) The small contribution of subsidised coal to the overall energy mix no longer justifies the maintenance of such subsidies with a view of securing the supply of energy on a Union level.

(2) The small contribution of subsidised coal to the Union’s overall energy mix means that subsidies for coal mining can

make up for interruptions in the supply of energy only to a limited extent. However,

the level of State aid in the coal sector is

now so low that it is not capable of having

a distorting effect on competition. A

minimum of coal production in the Union

would maintain access to indigenous

deposits in the interests of creating a

strategic reserve.

Amendment 6


Recital 2 a (new)


(2a) The expiry of Regulation (EC) No

1407/2002 will force some Member States

to close their coal mines at short notice

and to face the considerable social and

regional consequences of such closures.

Amendment 7


Recital 2 b (new)


(2b) In the light of the extremely serious

socio-economic impact of pit closures,

particularly in thinly populated regions,

consideration should be given to targeted

support from the EU structural funds in

future budgets, even if the regions

affected are situated in Member States

with less severe economic problems.

Amendment 8


Recital 2 c (new)

172 /PE 453.165

EN


(2c) Under Article 194(2) of the Treaty on

the Functioning of the European Union

the Member States have the right to

determine the conditions for exploiting

their energy resources, to choose between

different energy sources and to determine

the general structure of their energy

supply.

Amendment 9


Recital 3


(3) The Union's policies of encouraging renewable and lower carbon fossil fuels for power generation do not justify the indefinite support for uncompetitive coal

mines. The categories of aid permitted by

Regulation (EC) No 1407/2002 should

therefore not be continued indefinitely.

(3) As regards the Union's policies to aid the use of renewable and lower carbon fossil fuels for power generation, Member

States should provide a plan of measures

aimed at mitigating the environmental

impact of the use of coal, for example in

the field of energy efficiency, renewable

energy or carbon capture and storage.

This applies to all types of coal and all

types of resources. It should be recognised

that the replacement of subsidised coal by

unsubsidised coal has no beneficial

impact on the environment.

Amendment 10

(3a) Because indigenous energy sources

in the Union are scarce, support for the

coal mining industry is justified under the

Union’s policy to encourage renewable

and lower carbon fossil fuels for power

generation. The categories of aid

permitted under Regulation (EC) No

1407/2002 should not be maintained

indefinitely. In any event, however, State

aid intended to reduce the pollutant effect

PE 453.165\ 173

EN

of coal should be maintained. Mines that

are capable of being competitive but

continue to require State aid for

environmental technology investment

after the expiry of a 10-year period should

be exempted from such a discontinuation

of subsidies.

Amendment 11


Recital 5


(5) Without prejudice to the general State aid rules, Member States should be able to take measures to alleviate the social and regional consequences of the closure of those mines, that is to say the orderly winding down of activities in the context of an irrevocable closure plan and/or the financing of exceptional costs, inherited liabilities in particular.

(5) Without prejudice to the general State aid rules, Member States should be able to take measures to alleviate the social and regional consequences of the possible closure of those mines, that is to say the orderly winding down of activities in the context of an irrevocable closure plan and/or the financing of exceptional costs, inherited liabilities in particular.

Amendment 12


Recital 5 a (new)


(5a) Retraining workers affected by the pit

closure plans should be provided for

immediately and all the possibilities of

regional, national and Union financing

should be explored for that purpose.

Amendment 13


Recital 5 b (new)


(5b) The financing of environmental

protection measures and costs relating to

long-term pit closures will need to

continue beyond 2014. A premature end

to Member States' subsidies to the coal

174 /PE 453.165

EN

industry would lead to significant

environmental and financial

destabilisation in the affected regions and

would ultimately be much more costly

than the phasing out of such subsidies.

Amendment 14


Recital 6


(6) This Regulation marks the transition

of the coal sector from sector-specific

rules to the general State aid rules

applicable to all sectors.

deleted

Amendment 15


Recital 7


(7) In order to minimise the distortion of competition in the internal market resulting from aid, such aid should be degressive and strictly limited to production units that are irrevocably planned for closure.

(7) In order to minimise the distortion of competition in the internal market resulting from aid, such aid should follow a downward trend and should be limited to production units that are irrevocably planned for closure, except where those units have become competitive by the

scheduled date of closure.

Amendment 16


Recital 7 a (new)


(7a) The rehabilitation of former coal

mining sites requires a number of

measures such as the removal of mining

equipment from, and making safe, the

mine, cleaning the site and disposing of

waste water. The financing of such

rehabilitation requires longer term

planning.

PE 453.165\ 175

Amendment 17


Recital 8


(8) In order to mitigate the negative

environmental impact of aid to coal, the

Member State should provide a plan of

appropriate measures, for example in the

field of energy efficiency, renewable

energy or carbon capture and storage.

deleted

Amendment 18


Recital 8 a (new)


(8a) A minimum level of coal production,

together with other measures, in

particular to promote energy production

from renewable sources, will help to

maintain a proportion of indigenous

primary energy sources, which will

significantly boost the Union's energy

security. Furthermore, a proportion of

indigenous primary energy sources will

serve to promote environmental objectives

within the framework of sustainable

development. Within the context of

boosting the Union’s indigenous energy

sources in order to counterbalance its

significant dependence on imports,

consideration should be given to

complementing indigenous non-fossil

sources with fossil sources, coal being the

sole source of indigenous fossil energy in

some Member States.

Amendment 19


Recital 8 b (new)


(8b) In networks of coal-fired power

176 /PE 453.165

EN

plants, indigenous coal is likely to be

replaced by imported coal, leading to

substantial transport costs and a negative

carbon footprint without in reality

changing the amount of CO2 emissions

resulting from power generation.

Amendment 20


Recital 8 c (new)


(8c) The conditions for coal mining vary

in geological terms depending on the site,

and in terms of social, safety and

environmental standards (relating to

subsidence and other environmental

damage) depending on the political

circumstances. The effect of those

variations gives rise to competitive

disadvantages, in particular between

Union and imported coal, which has

resulted in substantial restructuring

measures in the Union coal industry

involving a major reduction in activity

over the last decades.

Amendment 21


Recital 8 d (new)


(8d) A minimum level of production of

subsidised coal will also help to maintain

the prominent position of Union mining

and clean coal technology, enabling that

technology, in particular, to be

transferred to the major coal-producing

areas in third countries and contributing

to a significant global reduction in

pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions.

Amendment 22


Recital 8 e (new)

PE 453.165\ 177

EN


(8e) Coal is used in the Union mainly for

power generation and, to a lesser extent,

for the production of coke for the steel

industry. On environmental grounds,

coal-fired power generation should cease

as soon as possible in favour of

sustainable power production. In the steel

industry, on the other hand, coal is likely

to remain indispensable for the

foreseeable future. In view of diminishing

oil deposits (‘peak oil’), coal is likely to

become increasingly important as a

substitute raw material for the chemical

industry. In the long term, therefore,

continuing access to Union coal deposits

with a view to maintaining, for technical

reasons, a minimum level of coal

production which does not distort

competition should not be ruled out even

if such continuing access necessitated a

lengthy period of State aid.

Amendment 32


Recital 9 a (new)


(9a) Undertakings should, in line with the

“polluter pays” principle and the need for

internalisation of external costs, be

obliged to cover the costs of remedying

any short-term and/or long-term

environmental damage caused by their

activities.

established, maintained and complied with. With regard to more especially the electricity market, aid to the coal industry should not be such as to affect electricity producers' choice of sources of primary energy supply. Consequently, the prices and quantities of coal should be freely agreed between the contracting parties in the light of prevailing conditions on the world market.

With regard to more especially the electricity market, aid to the coal industry should not be such as to affect electricity producers' choice of sources of primary energy supply. Consequently, the prices and quantities of coal should be freely agreed between the contracting parties in the light of prevailing conditions on the world market. In view of the likely rise in energy prices, the

Commission should carry out a regular

review of the potential contribution of

Union coal to energy security.

Amendment 24




2. Aid shall cover only costs in connection with coal for the production of electricity, the combined production of heat and electricity, the production of coke and the fuelling of blast furnaces in the steel industry, where such use takes place in the Union.

2. Aid shall cover costs in connection with coal for the production of electricity, the combined production of heat and electricity, the production of coke, the fuelling of blast furnaces in the steel industry and research and technology investment designed to reduce pollutant

an undertaking at the JPA session in Wiesbaden (Germany) in June 2007 to subject Country and Regional Strategy Papers for the ACP countries (2008-2013) to democratic scrutiny by parliaments; welcoming the fact that that undertaking has been fulfilled,

D. whereas the revision of the Cotonou Partnership Agreement in 2010 provides a valuable opportunity for strengthening the role of the JPA and its regional dimension as well as developing parliamentary scrutiny in ACP regions,

E. whereas the two JPA regional meetings held in Guyana and Burkina Faso in 2009 were a considerable success and resulted in the adoption of the abovementioned Georgetown and Ouagadougou communiqués,

F. whereas the situation in Niger, Guinea and Madagascar deteriorated in 2009, leading to the removal of parliamentary democracy in all three countries and to the downgrading of the status of their representatives to observers at the 18th session of the JPA in Luanda,

G. whereas the ongoing conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has resulted in grave, repeated human rights violations; whereas there is a need for effective humanitarian assistance and greater commitment from the international community,

H. having regard to the work of the Pan-African Parliament (PAP) and the establishment of formal relations between the European Parliament and the PAP, as well as the creation of the European Parliament inter-parliamentary delegation for relations with the PAP,

1. Welcomes the fact that in 2009 the JPA continued to provide a framework for an open, democratic and in-depth dialogue between the European Union and the ACP countries, and calls for an enhanced political dialogue;

2. Welcomes the new Commissioner for Trade’s positive response to the request by several ACP countries and regions for a review of the contentious issues raised in the EPAs negotiations, in line with the statements made by the President of the Commission; underlines the need for close parliamentary monitoring of the EPAs negotiations and implementation;

3. Stresses in particular the crucial role of the ACP national parliaments, as well as local authorities and non-state bodies, in monitoring and managing the Country and Regional Strategy Papers and in the implementation of the EDF and calls on the Commission to guarantee their involvement; underlines also the need for close parliamentary scrutiny during the negotiation of EPAs;

4. Calls on the parliaments of the ACP countries to insist that their governments and the Commission involve them in the process of drafting and implementing the Country and Regional Strategy Papers relating to cooperation between the EU and their countries (2008-2013), and ensure their full participation in the EPA negotiations;

5. Calls on the Commission to supply all available information to the parliaments of the ACP countries and to assist them in exercising democratic scrutiny, in particular by means of capacity-building, and notably during the negotiation and implementation of the EPAs;

7. Welcomes the undertaking given by the previous Commissioner with responsibility for development and humanitarian aid, during the abovementioned JPA session in Kigali, to subject Country and Regional Strategy Papers for the ACP countries (2008-2013) to democratic scrutiny by parliaments; likewise, welcomes the work already done by certain ACP parliaments in examining such documents,, as well as the JPA's scrutiny of the RSPs ahead of the mid-term review, and calls for this input to be duly taken into account;

8. Draws attention, in this regard, to the need closely to involve parliaments in the democratic process and in the national development strategies; stresses their vital role in establishing, following up and monitoring development policies;

9. Reiterates its position that the European Development Fund (EDF) should be incorporated into the EU budget in order to increase the consistency, transparency and effectiveness of development cooperation policy and guarantee democratic scrutiny thereof; underlines that incorporating the EDF into the EU budget is also an appropriate response to the difficulties affecting the implementation and ratification of successive EDFs;

10. Calls on parliaments to exercise close parliamentary scrutiny of the EDF; highlights the JPA’s key position in this debate and calls on it and the parliaments of the ACP countries to take an active part therein, in particular in connection with the ratification of the revised Cotonou Partnership Agreement;

11. Welcomes the increasingly parliamentary – and hence political – nature of the JPA, together with the ever more active role played by its members and the greater quality of its debates, which are helping it to make a vital contribution to the ACP-EU partnership;

12. Considers the declaration on Niger, which the Co-Presidents of the JPA made in Luanda on 2 December 2009, and the abovementioned resolution on the situation in Madagascar to be significant examples of this enhanced dialogue;

13. Calls on the JPA to continue to monitor the situation in Sudan, Madagascar, Niger and Guinea Conakry;

14. Calls on the JPA to continue to address the situation in Somalia, which is endangering the lives of the Somali people and poses a threat to security in the region and calls on the EU to maintain its commitments regarding the promotion of the rule of law, restoring stability in the region and fighting piracy;

15. Calls on the JPA to continue to contribute to the international community’s efforts to raise awareness of the conflicts affecting the eastern DRC, to promote a negotiated political solution to the crisis and to support any action that may be proposed as part of a negotiated solution;

16. Calls on the JPA to pursue and intensify dialogue with the PAP and the parliaments of regional organisations, in view of the importance of regional integration to peace and development in ACP countries;

PE 453.165\ 185

17. Deplores the fact that the JPA was not properly consulted during the drafting of the Joint EU-Africa Strategy and hopes that the Assembly will be actively involved in the implementation of that strategy;

18. Welcomes the fact that further regional meetings provided for in the Cotonou Partnership Agreement and the JPA Rules of Procedure were held in 2009; considers that these meetings make for a genuine exchange of views on regional issues, including conflict prevention and resolution, regional cohesion, human rights, environmental issues and EPA negotiations; commends the organisers of the two extremely successful meetings in Guyana and Burkina Faso;

19. Calls for the JPA to ensure strong monitoring of the EPA negotiations during its regional meetings;

20. Regrets that the Council ignored the repeated calls by the European Parliament notably at the JPA in Luanda, to include a stronger clause on non-discrimination in the revision of the Cotonou Agreement;

21. Reiterates the principle of the universality of human rights and non-discrimination as the basis upon which to enhance legitimate democratic governance and the political dialogue at the JPA;

22. Encourages the JPA to strengthen the role of its Committee on Political Affairs so as to make the Assembly a genuine forum for a debate within the ACP-EU partnership on respect for human rights, democratisation of society, and conflict prevention and resolution;

23. Welcomes, further, the JPA Committee on Political Affairs report on global governance, adopted in Luanda, which called for major reforms of the world’s financial institutions;

24. Notes the intention of the JPA Committee on Economic Development, Finance and Trade to continue its work on EPAs and on ways of getting out of the crisis;

– having regard to the Communication from the Commission of 10 June 2009 entitled ‘An area of freedom, security and justice serving the citizen’ (COM(2009)0262), which outlines its priorities in the area of freedom, security and justice (AFSJ) for 2010-2014, together with its evaluation of the Hague Programme and Action Plan (COM(2009)0263) and the associated implementation scoreboard (SEC(2009)0765), as well as to the contributions made by national parliaments, civil society and EU agencies and bodies,

A. whereas AFSJ is a shared competence between the Union and the Member States,

B. whereas Article 67 TFEU emphasises respect for the different legal systems and traditions and access to justice, which is to be facilitated, in particular through the principle of mutual recognition; whereas this requires mutual trust and, in turn, mutual trust requires a reinforced understanding of the different legal traditions and methods,

C. whereas, since the Union first obtained competence for justice and home affairs and the subsequent creation of the AFSJ, huge progress has been made in the area of civil justice, building and enlarging on the various private international law conventions concluded

1 P7_TA(2009)0090. 2 P7_TA(2010)0242.

PE 453.165\ 187

intergovernmentally; whereas the Commission is now proposing a very ambitious plan, which responds to a substantial number of the demands that Parliament has made in the recent period,

D. whereas in the light of this ambitious plan and the huge achievements already made by the EU in this field, it is time to stand back and reflect on what we are doing in the field of civil law with a view primarily to adopting a more strategic and less fragmented approach based on the real needs of citizens and businesses when exercising their rights and freedoms in the single market, and taking account of the difficulties of legislating in an area of shared competence where harmonisation is only infrequently an option and overlapping needs to be avoided, and where there is a consequent need to respect and accommodate radically different legal approaches and constitutional traditions, and also with a view to conceptualising the Union’s approach to this area in order better to understand what we are seeking to accomplish and how best to tackle the problems that have to be confronted, as part of an overall plan;whereas it is essential to focus in the first place on ensuring the functionality of the measures that have already been put in place and consolidating the progress that has already been made,

E. whereas, if we look back at what has been achieved in the AFSJ, there is first of all harmonisation of the rules of private international law, which has advanced apace; whereas private international law is the means par excellence of achieving mutual recognition of, and respect for, each others’ legal systems, and whereas the existence of public policy clauses is the last-ditch protection of national constitutional requirements,

F. whereas, next, there is harmonisation or approximation which lends itself to certain areas where standardisation is desirable, if not essential – e.g. in the area of consumer protection – but recourse to which is limited in the AFJS,

G. whereas drafting a European Contract Law will be one of the most important initiatives for the AFSJ in the coming years and may result in a so-called optional 28th civil law regime as an alternative to the traditional way of harmonising legislation in specific areas,

H. whereas, lastly, there are the stand-alone instruments and action in the area of procedural law; measures in these areas are the key in many ways to dealing with cross-border disputes, since no matter to what extent substantive law is harmonised, citizens and businesses tend to come up against barriers in the form of national procedural law,

I. whereas the co-existence of different legal systems within the Union should be seen as a strength which has served as an inspiration for legal systems all over the world; however, divergences between legal systems should not constitute a barrier to the further development of European law; whereas the explicit and conceptual divergence between legal systems is not in itself problematic; whereas, however, it is necessary to address the adverse legal consequences for citizens arising from this divergence; whereas the concept of regulatory emulation, or a ‘bottom up’ approach to convergence, should be applied through the encouragement of economic and intellectual communication between different legal systems; whereas the ability to comprehend and manage the differences between our legal systems can only come from a European judicial culture which needs to be nurtured through the sharing of knowledge and communication, the study of comparative law and a radical shift in the way law is taught in the universities and judges participate in training and professional development, as explained in Parliament’s resolution of 17 June 2010,including additional efforts to overcome linguistic barriers; whereas although this will

188 /PE 453.165

EN

take time, it is necessary to reflect on it and plan for it now;

J. whereas, in the meantime, greater dialogue and professional contact should be encouraged and promoted at European level in order to enable changes in teaching and programmes to be determined according to the needs of practitioners, their clients and the market as a whole; whereas the Commission’s forthcoming communication on an Action Plan on European training for all legal professions should take account of the different teaching traditions and methods and also the different needs of practitioners operating in different geographical or practice areas, while fostering the exchange of best practices,

K. whereas it is vital not to leave practitioners out of account in building a European judicial culture; whereas although it is self-evident that Member States and national professional bodies maintain responsibility for determining the most appropriate training to address the needs of lawyers and their clients in each Member State in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity and that the national professional bodies are best placed to identify those needs because they are closer to the practitioners and the market in which they operate, those bodies have a vital role to play at European level; whereas it is essential to involve and draw upon existing structures, particularly the universities and professional organisations; whereas there is a need for a root-and-branch revision of judicial and practitioner training and university syllabuses; whereas it is essential to initiate serious reflection on how the Union may effectively assist this and encourage the competent national authorities to accept ownership of this project,

L. whereas this is the very stuff of Europe and the challenge of the AFSJ, and should not be seen as contradictory to the development and teaching of a real European legal culture,

M. whereas the determination in the Preamble to the Lisbon Treaty to ‘lay the foundations of an ever closer union among the peoples of Europe’ requires a narrowing of the real and perceived distance between the European Union, its law and its citizens,

N. whereas Union law must be at the service of citizens, notably in the areas of family law and civil status,

O. whereas the Commission must make sure that the Stockholm Action Plan truly reflects the needs of individual citizens and business, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises, for more Europe (in respect of mobility, employment rights, the needs of business, equal opportunities) while promoting legal certainty and access to rapid and efficient justice,

P. whereas in this context ever-increasing attention must be paid to simplifying the machinery of justice and the judicial system and securing clearer and more accessible procedures bearing in mind the need to save costs, particularly in the present economic climate,

Q. whereas the emphasis laid on party autonomy in recent EU initiatives on the sensitive issue of family law with transnational implications entails the risk, unless clear restrictions are applied, of opening the door to the unacceptable practice of forum shopping,

1. Congratulates the Commission on its proposed Action Plan;

2. Considers nonetheless that the time is ripe for reflection on the future development of the AFSJ, and calls on the Commission to initiate a wide-ranging debate involving all interested parties, including in particular judges and practitioners;

Calls on the Commission to take stock as a matter of urgency, by means of an ex post impact assessment, of the measures which have already been adopted in the field of civil and family law, with a view to appraising their effectiveness and ascertaining to what extent they have proved successful in achieving their aims and satisfying the needs of citizens, business and practitioners; considers that at the same time a survey should be carried out covering in particular national Ministries of Justice, the legal professions, the business community and consumer organisations, in order to ascertain in what areas new measures in the field of judicial cooperation in civil matters are necessary and desirable;

4. Calls on the Commission to act on its resolution of 17 June 2010 on judicial training, while conferring with Parliament;

5. Underscores once again the need to use every possible means to nurture a European judicial culture, particularly through legal education and training;

6. Recommends that the ‘Erasmus-style’ exchange programmes proposed in the Action Plan should be just one of a series of initiatives fostering vertical and horizontal communication between national and European courts; draws attention to the fact that Parliament is to commission a study which will take stock of national training programmes and schools for the judiciary with a view also to identifying best practices in this sector;

7. Notes that existing national training institutions and networks, as the ‘front line’ of the implementation of Union law in the Member States and having as they do direct contact with national courts and judiciaries and a deep understanding of national legal cultures and needs, should be vehicles for the development of a common European judicial culture;

8. Considers that a start could be made by creating a regular forum where judges of all levels of seniority in areas of law where cross-border issues frequently arise, such as admiralty, commercial, family and personal injury cases, could hold discussions on a recent area or areas of legal controversy or difficulty, in order to encourage discussion, build contacts, create channels of communication and collaboration and build mutual confidence and understanding; believes that this could be assisted through the active participation of the universities and the participation of practitioners;

9. Considers that the Commission should support the ongoing effective dialogue and communication that take place between European legal professional bodies at the Council of Bars and Law Societies of Europe (CCBE); believes that this could be used as a basis from which to establish further cross-border training initiatives of professional bodies in partnership with other European stakeholders, such as the Academy of European Law (ERA);

10. Appreciates the Commission’s generous funding of transnational legal training projects in the area of civil justice, but deplores the fact that the funding is very difficult to access and use effectively owing largely to the inflexibility of the current system; notes in addition the problems in recovering expenses incurred during co-financed training programmes and the fact that organising such programmes involves the professional organisation concerned in tying up large amounts of funds for a long period because of the requirements imposed by the Commission; calls therefore for a more flexible and innovative approach on the part of the Commission in order to enable organisations without large cash-flows to apply to operate training schemes;

11. Observes that the treatment of Union law as a discrete subject in legal and judicial education and training has a marginalising effect; therefore recommends that, in addition, legal educational and training syllabuses should incorporate Union law in every core area as a matter of course; considers that comparative law should become a key element of university syllabuses;

12. Bearing in mind that education and training is primarily a Member State competence, calls on the Commission to initiate a dialogue with all those responsible for legal education with a view to achieving these aims; recommends also that in the longer term lawyers should be required to have a working knowledge of at least one other Union language; considers that this aim could be fostered immediately through greater funding and encouragement for students to undertake ERASMUS-style schemes as part of their legal studies;

13. Bearing in mind the Stockholm programme’s ambitious goal of offering European training schemes to half of the judges, prosecutors, judicial staff and other professionals involved in European cooperation before 2014, and its call for the existing training institutions in particular to be used for this purpose, points out that the Network of the Presidents of the Supreme Judicial Courts, the European Network of the Councils for the Judiciary, the Association of the Councils of State and Supreme Administrative Jurisdictions and the Eurojustice network of European Prosecutors-General, court officers and legal practitioners have a huge amount to offer by coordinating and promoting professional training for the judiciary and mutual understanding of other Member States’ legal systems and making it easier to resolve cross-border disputes and problems, and therefore considers that their activities must be facilitated and receive sufficient funding; further considers that this must lead to a fully funded plan for European judicial training drawn up in liaison with the abovementioned judicial networks, while avoiding unnecessary duplication of programmes and structures, and that it should culminate in the creation of a European Judicial Academy composed of the European Judicial Training Network and the Academy of European Law;

14. Considers that, especially at the stage of the drafting of Union legislation in the field of, in particular, civil and family law, room should be created for national and Union judges to have a say on the purely technical aspects of proposed measures in order to ensure that the future legislation may be implemented and applied with a minimum of difficulty by national judges; takes the view that this could also assist in creating further contacts between judges, thus opening up new channels of communication; positively welcomes input from national judiciaries in the course of legislative procedures;

15. Considers that the Commission should give priority to tackling the difficulties brought about by divergences in national procedural law (e.g. in limitation periods and the treatment of foreign law by the courts); suggests, in the light of the key importance of this aspect, that the date for the Commission’s report on the functioning of the present EU regime on civil procedural law across borders should be brought forward from 2013 to the end of 2011; urges the Commission to respond to its resolution of 1 February 20071 by presenting a proposal for a common limitation period in cross-border disputes involving personal injuries and fatal accidents as a matter of urgency;

16. Welcomes the Green Paper of 1 July 2010 on policy options for progress towards a European Contract Law for consumers and businesses and supports the Commission’s ambitious initiative towards a European contract law instrument that can be applied

1 P6_TA(2007)0020.

PE 453.165\ 191

voluntarily by contracting parties (COM(2010)0348);

17. Emphasises the importance of cross-border justice in resolving cases of fraud and misleading business practices which originate in one Member State and target individuals, NGOs and SMEs in other Member States;

18. Draws attention to Parliament’s resolution of 10 March 2009 on cooperation between the courts of the Member States in the taking of evidence in civil or commercial matters1 and urges the Commission to take action to improve cooperation between the Member States’ courts for the purposes of taking evidence and enhancing the efficiency of Regulation (EC) No 1206/2001, in particular by ensuring that courts and practitioners are better informed about it and that they promote the extensive use of information technology and video-conferencing; considers that there should be a secure system for sending and receiving e-mails and that these matters should be taken up under the European e-Justice strategy;

19. Welcomes the fact that the Action Plan proposes a legislative initiative for a regulation on improving the efficiency of the enforcement of judgments concerning the transparency of debtors’ assets and a similar regulation concerning the attachment of bank accounts; stresses, however, the complementary nature of both proposals, which should be brought forward as soon as possible;

20. Considers that such initiatives are of increasing importance in the context of the economic downturn;

21. Calls on the Commission to move forward with those initiatives as quickly as possible, focusing on the possibility of a self-standing European remedy to disclose and/or freeze assets in cross-border cases;

22. Stresses that this area has important financial and reputational consequences; this being the case, encourages a preventive recourse to alternative dispute resolution mechanisms;

23. Believes that the consolidation of legal arrangements by the means set out in this report should certainly lead to the development and strengthening of economic and professional relations, thus contributing to the creation of a real single market;

24. Calls on the Commission and the Member States to ensure the more uniform application of EU legislation (in its procedural aspects), with the focus on standardised rules and administrative procedures which should apply in areas of Union competence such as taxation, customs, trade and consumer protection, subject to the limits of the EU Treaties, with a view to the proper functioning of the single market and freedom of competition;

25. Points out that the Stockholm Programme seeks to create a European area of freedom, security and justice that will guarantee citizens’ fundamental rights, including freedom of enterprise, so as to develop entrepreneurship in all economic sectors;

26. Strongly supports the Commission in its goal of enacting legislation that reduces business and transaction costs, particularly for SMEs;

27. Encourages joint initiatives by the Commission and the Member States to support SMEs

operating across borders throughout the EU by cutting down red tape in order to achieve a tangible reduction in administrative, financial and regulatory burdens; welcomes the upcoming revision of the Late Payments Directive;

28. Underlines that the correct functioning of the single market supports the European Area of Freedom, Security and Justice and contributes to strengthening the European social market economy model; also acknowledges that the establishment of a European Area of Freedom, Security and Justice will strengthen the single market and, in particular, consumer protection;

29. Stresses that Article 12 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union reaffirms – as a provision of general application – that consumer protection should be taken into account in defining and implementing other Union policies and activities; emphasises the importance of the proposed new Consumer Rights Directive, as well as of the upcoming modernisation of the directive on package travel, the Unfair Commercial Practices Directive and the directive concerning misleading and comparative advertising;

30. Calls on the Commission to ensure the removal of all barriers to the development of e-commerce most recently identified in the 2010 ‘Digital Agenda’ by both legislative and non-legislative means; urges that a quick solution be found to cross-border trade problems for online consumer purchases, particularly with respect to payments and cross-border deliveries; stresses the need to increase the confidence of consumers and business in cross-border e-commerce, inter alia by stepping up the fight against cyber-crime and counterfeiting; calls for the development of an EU charter of consumers’ rights in the area of online services and e-commerce;

31. Reiterates its call upon the Commission to ensure that the European Parliament is kept immediately and fully informed of the advancement of ACTA at all stages of the negotiations in order to respect the letter and spirit of the Lisbon Treaty, as well as its request for further reassurance that ACTA will not modify the EU acquis on IPR enforcement and fundamental rights; calls upon the Commission to engage closely with third countries which are not part of ACTA negotiations, in particular emerging countries;

32. Draws attention to problems linked to the legal uncertainty of commercial exchanges from and to non-EU countries, and to the issue of which jurisdiction is competent for the settlement of a given dispute; notes that while principles of private international law do exist, their implementation raises a number of problems primarily affecting consumers and small businesses, who often lack knowledge of their own rights; underlines, besides, the new legal challenges arising from globalisation and the development of Internet transactions; emphasises the need for a coherent approach to be adopted on an international level to avoid consumers and small businesses being punished for this situation.

33. Draws the Commission’s attention in the field of company law as it is affected by private international law, to Parliament’s resolutions of 10 March 2009 with recommendations to the Commission on the cross-border transfer of the registered office of a company (2008/2196(INI), 4 July 2006 on recent developments and prospects in relation to company law, and 25 October 2007 on the European Private Company and the Fourteenth Company Law Directive on the transfer of the company seat, and to the judgments of the Court of Justice in Daily Mail and General Trust, Centros, Überseering, Inspire Art, SEVIC Systems, and Cartesio;

PE 453.165\ 193

EN

34. Notes that the dictum in Cartesio to the effect that, in the absence of a uniform Union law definition of the companies which may enjoy the right of establishment on the basis of a single connecting factor determining the national law applicable to a company, the question whether Article 49 TFEU applies to a company which seeks to rely on the fundamental freedom enshrined in that article is a preliminary matter which, as Union law now stands, can only be resolved by the applicable national law; further notes that the developments in the field of company law envisaged in the Treaty, as pursued by means of legislation and agreements, have not as yet addressed the differences between the legislation of the various Member States and, accordingly, have not yet eradicated those differences; observes that this evidences a lacuna in Union law; reiterates its call for this lacuna to be remedied;

35. Urges the Commission to use its best endeavours at the Hague Conference to revive the project for an international judgments convention; considers that the Commission could make a start with wide-ranging consultations, while informing and involving Parliament, on whether the rules of Regulation (EC) No 44/20011 should be given reflexive effect in order to incentivise other countries, particularly the United States, to resume negotiations; takes the view that it would be premature and ill-advised to contemplate giving the rules of that regulation reflexive effect until it is sufficiently clear that the attempts to restart the negotiations in the Hague have failed and it appears from the consultations and studies carried out that this move would have positive benefits and advantages for citizens, business and practitioners in the EU;

36. Calls upon the Commissioner for Justice to ensure that in future Parliament is more closely involved with the activities of the Commission and the Council at the Hague Conference through Parliament’s observer and by means of regular statements to the competent parliamentary committee; in this context reminds the Commission of the institutional commitments expressed by Commissioner Frattini before Parliament in September 2006 that the Commission would cooperate fully with the Parliament in its work with the Hague Conference;

37. Encourages the Commission to play its full role in the work of the Hague Conference; urges the Commission to take steps to ensure that the EU ratifies the Hague Convention of 19 October 1996 on the Protection of Children;

38. Resolves to set up an interparliamentary forum on the work of the Hague Conference; considers, by way of example only, that the promotion by the Hague Conference of party autonomy in contractual relations worldwide has such serious implications from the point of view of the evasion of mandatory rules as to warrant its being debated and reflected upon in democratic fora worldwide;

39. Observes that the Commission has set up a working group on arbitration; cautions the Commission against adopting any legislative initiative in this area without holding open consultations while involving the European Parliament to the full; calls on the Commission to ensure that a representative of the competent parliamentary committee is invited to take part in all such working groups and considers that, without detracting from the Commission’s right of initiative, the European Parliament should have the right to nominate

a member or members of such working groups in order to ensure that they are truly representative;

40. Stresses the need to ensure mutual recognition of official documents issued by national administrations; (Ex AM 42( Or. EN) of FdR K:\juri\am\828\828941EN.doc){AM\EN\828941} welcomes the Commission’s efforts to empower citizens to exercise their free movement rights and strongly supports plans to enable the mutual recognition of the effects of civil status documents; calls for further efforts to reduce barriers for citizens who exercise their rights of free movement, particularly with regard to access to the social benefits to which they are entitled and their right to vote in municipal elections;

41. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission and the governments and parliaments of the Member States.
