Article 2 of the Treaty recognises gender equality as a fundamental task for the Community. Article 3 (2) states that in all its activities the Community shall aim to eliminate inequalities and to promote equality between men and women. Article 13 empowers the Community to take action to combat discrimination based on a number of grounds including sex. The Community legal framework ensures that women and men are equal before the law and a wide range of action has been taken at European and national level. However, gender equality in the EU is still being undermined by the fact that women and men do not have equal rights in practice and under-representation of and violence against women show that there are structural gender inequalities. Continuous support is therefore necessary to make gender equality effective in all spheres of life.The Community Action Programme relating to the Community framework strategy on gender equality (2001–2005)[1], the fifth action programme in this field was adopted by the Council on 20 December 2000 to run from 1 January 2001 to 31 December 2005, with a budget of EUR 50 million. It supports the Community framework strategy on gender equality (2001–2005), a new approach embracing all Community policies in the effort to promote the achievement of gender equality, by developing the necessary horizontal activities and improving coordination of gender-related activities in the various policy areas.This Programme has the following objectives and corresponding strands:To promote and disseminate the values and practices underlying gender equality. This strand covers awareness-raising activities with a view to reinforcing the Community dimension of the promotion of gender equality. This may include transnational conferences, seminars and campaigns, large-scale events at EU level, publications and Internet sites;To improve the understanding of issues related to gender equality, including direct and indirect discrimination and multiple discrimination against women, by evaluating the effectiveness of policies and practices through prior analysis, monitoring their implementation and assessing their effects. This strand encompasses, for example, support for the development of comparable statistics and indicators, EU analysis of the gender dimension of policies and measures, the follow-up of the implementation of Community equality legislation, studies and the publication of an Annual Report on Gender Equality;To develop the capacity of key players (NGOs, social partners at EU level, transnational networks of regional or local authorities) to promote gender equality effectively, in particular through support for the exchange of information and good practice and networking at Community level.Possible actions for each strand are detailed in the Annex of the Council Decision establishing the Programme. Actions should be implemented in a transnational framework with a view to developing Community added value. The Programme Committee set annual priority themes for the calls for proposals as follows: equal pay in 2001, reconciliation of work and family life in 2002, women in decision-making in 2003 and gender roles and stereotypes in 2004/2005.This Programme contributes to mainstreaming the gender dimension into all policies and using their potential to promote gender equality as well as to increasing the awareness of the issues at stake. It further strengthens cooperation and partnership between players involved in the promotion of gender equality, especially national authorities, equality bodies, social partners and NGOs. A mid-term evaluation has been carried out with the assistance of independent experts with a view to providing the Commission with information on how to further reinforce and improve the system of Community support for the promotion of equality between men and women.Another Community Action Programme with the objective of promoting organisations active at European level in the field of equality between men and women was recently established by the European Parliament and the Council on 29 April 2004[2] and runs from 1 January 2004 to 31 December 2005 with a budget of EUR 2.2 million. This Decision puts the long-standing practice of supporting organisations working to promote equality between women and men on the footing of a basic legal instrument.Both Programmes come to an end simultaneously at a time of major changes for the construction and functioning of an enlarged European Union in general which necessitate profound reflection on the future approach to be taken in the implementation of the Social Policy Agenda, particularly with regard to the structure of the Community Action Programmes in the employment and social spheres. Currently, there are five such programmes which are implemented in a similar fashion and support comparable types of measures. Besides the two gender equality programmes, these include two action programmes that aim at supporting the open method of coordination in the employment area (Employment Incentive Measures) and the social inclusion area (Social Inclusion Action Programme) and a programme dealing with the fight against discrimination. With the sole exception of the gender equality programmes all of them will expire at the end of 2006.The proposal for a European Parliament and Council Decision on a Framework Programme on the financing of actions in the employment and social field will cover the same period as the new financial perspectives, i.e. 2007–2013[3]. The Commission has thoroughly analysed the future of the implementation of the Social Policy Agenda including the objectives and operation of the Community Action Programmes and the links between them. The new proposal for the period 2007–2013 aims at simplifying the budget structure by merging the existing Community Action Programmes into one vast Framework Programme which will provide for the same types of co-financed actions, namely analyses and studies, support for European exchange mechanisms, awareness raising and support to civil society organisations. The strand on gender equality of the proposed Framework Programme for the period 2007–2013 will build on previous experience and continue the financial support to the development and implementation of Community law in the field of gender equality and the promotion of gender mainstreaming in EU policies. It will also cover the support to EU umbrella networks active in the field of equality between men and women.For the transitional period until the adoption of a new Framework Programme along the lines set out above it is essential to ensure the continuity of Community assistance for the promotion of gender equality and to avoid any disruption of the mechanism currently in place in support of the objectives laid down in Article 13 of the EC Treaty. The principles and objectives as well as the areas of intervention of the Community framework strategy on gender equality, which coincide with those set out in Decision 2001/51/EC and the Annex thereof, remain fully valid for this transitional year.In view of these circumstances, the European Commission proposes that both the Programmes in the field of gender equality should be extended unchanged for 2006.The Commission therefore proposes:-  to extend both the Programme relating to the Community framework strategy on gender equality (2001–2005) and the Community Action Programme to promote organisations active at European level in the field of equality between men and women until the end of the year 2006;-  to adjust the overall budget for the Programme relating to the Community framework strategy on gender equality (2001–2005) as extended to EUR 61.5 million; and-  to adjust the overall budget of the Community Action Programme to promote organisations active at European level in the field of equality between men and women as extended to EUR 3.3 million.2004/0194 (COD)Proposta għalDEĊIŻJONI TAL-PARLAMENT EWROPEW U TAL-KUNSILLli temenda d-Deċiżjoni tal-Kunsill 2001/51/KE li twaqqaf Programm relatat mal-qafas strateġiku tal-Komunità dwar ugwaljanza bejn is-sessi u id-Deċiżjoni Nru 848/2004/KE tal-Parlament Ewropew u tal-Kunsill li twaqqaf programm ta' azzjoni Komunitarju biex jippromwovi organizzazzjonijiet attivi fuq livell Ewropew fil-qasam ta' ugwaljanza bejn irġiel u nisaIL-PARLAMENT EWROPEW U L-KUNSILL TA’ L-UNJONI EWROPEA,Wara li kkunsidraw it-Trattat li jwaqqaf il-Komunità Ewropea, u b'mod partikolari l-Artikolu 13 (2) ta' dan,Wara li kkunsidraw il-proposta mingħand il-Kummissjoni[4],Wara li kkunsidraw l-opinjoni tal-Kumitat Ewropew Ekonomiku u Soċjali[5],Wara li kkunsidraw l-opinjoni tal-Kumitat tar-Reġjuni[6],B'dan il-mod skond il-proċedura mniżżla fl-Artikolu 251 tat-Trattat[7],Billi:(1) Il-Kunsill bid-Deċiżjoni 2001/51/KE waqqaf il-Programm relatat mal-qafas strateġiku tal-Komunità dwar ugwaljanza bejn is-sessi biex itejjeb il-fehim ta' kwistjonijiet relatati ma' ugwaljanza bejn is-sessi, jippromwovi u jxerred il-valuri u l-prattiki li huma l-bażi ta' ugwaljanza bejn is-sessi u jiżviluppa l-kapaċità ta' organizzazzjonijiet biex jippromwovu ugwaljanza bejn is-sessi b'mod effettiv(2) IL-Parlament Ewropew u l-Kunsill bid-Deċiżjoni Nru 848/2004/KE waqqfu l-Programm ta' Azzjoni Komunitarju biex jippromwovi organizzazzjonijiet attivi fuq livell Ewropew fil-qasam ta' ugwaljanza bejn irġiel u nisa biex jassistu attivitajiet ta' tali organizzazzjonijiet bħall-programm kontinwu ta' xogħol jew miżura speċifika isservi l-interess ġenerali Ewropew fil-qasam ta' ugwaljanza bejn irġiel u nisa jew iqanaqal objettiv li huwa parti mill-politika ta' l-Unjoni Ewropea f'dan il-qasam(3) Iż-żewġ programmi jiskadu fil-31 ta' Diċembru 2005.

LEGAL BASISArticle 13 (2) EC Treaty5. DESCRIPTION AND GROUNDS5.1. Need for Community intervention5.1.1. Objectives pursuedThe objective of the prolongation is to ensure the continuation of the Community Action Programme on gender equality during the year 2006. The present programme will expire on 31 December 2005. The prolongation is deemed necessary to guarantee continuity of Community action in a transitional period characterised by important institutional changes until the adoption of a new comprehensive multiannual Framework Programme on the financing of actions in the employment and social field, including gender equality.The objective of the Decision remains unchanged: to support and supplement efforts to promote gender equality including complementing legislative developments by:-  promoting and disseminating the values and practices underlying gender equality;-  improving the understanding of issues related to direct and indirect gender discrimination based on sex through improved knowledge and measurement and through the evaluation of the effectiveness of policies and practices; and-  developing the capacity of target players to promote gender equality.5.1.2. Measures taken in connection with ex ante evaluationThis programme is the prolongation of the 5th Programme relating to the Community framework strategy on gender equality (2001-2005). An external ongoing evaluation started at the beginning of 2003 and will end in December 2006. The executive summary of the interim evaluation will be available on http://europa.eu.int/comm/employment_social/evaluation/gender01_en.html .The Commission has drawn up an interim evaluation report based on the external evaluation available that will be made public soon. As explained in the interim evaluation report, the Action Programme has been designed to support the implementation of the Framework Strategy on gender equality with three main objectives, raising awareness, improving analysis and evaluation and developing capacity of players to promote gender equality. Results from the first three years show that the funded activities meet the objectives. Furthermore activities designed to raise awareness will in the process build up capacity - and vice versa - and both kinds of action either rely on or can be expected to promote policy analysis. This makes the classification of the eligible activities into the three strands somewhat artificial, as noted by the external evaluators.The programme has an important role to play in supporting policy cooperation at European level. The broad formulation of the main objectives of each strand allows the funding of a wide range of projects with different durations, types of users and objectives to respond to the variety of objectives defined in the Framework Strategy on gender equality. Valuable direct contributions have been made by activities funded under strand 2 (such as expert networks and statistical work) and strand 1 (such as the Council Presidency and the Commission's conferences). The transnational projects run by national authorities have contributed to reinforcing synergy between national policies on gender equality.On the other hand, the contribution of transnational projects subsidised under strand 3 is less apparent. Many projects deal with the development of methods and tools for which it is still too early to assess their impact. This will require further investigation in the course of the external evaluation.5.1.3. Measures taken following evaluationIn the light of the preliminary findings of the interim evaluation, the Commission intends to develop more systematic information on the outputs of the Programme and its various activities. It is important to improve the synergy between the three strands by encouraging the flow of information and knowledge between the various activities.For this purpose a regularly updated Commission website should be the major source of information and this message should be clearly passed to all project promoters. The comparable statistics developed by EUROSTAT in cooperation with the Member States, the studies conducted by the expert networks, the Commission's assessment of National Action Plans for Employment and social inclusion are all accessible from the Commission website. European conferences are also an opportunity to make the Programme's outputs better known.Finally, it should be borne in mind that the fundamental raison d'être of such a Programme is its European added value. The Programme has to contribute to the development and the implementation of EU law concerning gender equality and to the promotion of the gender dimension in EU policies. This should be further analysed in the course of the external evaluation. In the context of the enlarged European Union, the Commission will pay attention to keeping all activities funded by the Programme in line with this fundamental requirement.5.2. Action envisaged and budget intervention arrangementsIn the context of the Amsterdam Treaty, gender mainstreaming has been firmly anchored in Article 3. In parallel to gender mainstreaming, specific actions in favour of women have proved to be essential in order to eliminate persistent inequalities.Three sub-objectives have been identified to which correspond three major strands for actions under this Programme which run concurrently:-  promoting and disseminating values and practices underlying gender equality;-  improving the understanding of issues related to direct and indirect discrimination based on sex through improved knowledge and measurement and through the evaluation of the effectiveness of policies and practices;-  developing the capacity of target players to promote gender equality.The Programme will work with a variety of target players selected from among policymakers in national, regional and local administrations, independent bodies responsible for the promotion of gender equality, non-governmental organisations, social partners, research institutes, the media, opinion-formers, the judiciary and law enforcement agencies.The lessons of past programmes suggest that maximum added-value is obtained when programmes concentrate on a limited number of high-quality, large-scale coordinated activities where the emphasis is on supporting Member States' efforts to promote change at national, regional and local levels. This involves Member States' governments, local and regional authorities, social partners, grass-root NGOs, independent experts and academics.The three strands will continue to operate as in the first five years as follows:-  Awareness-raising (Strand 1)This strand aims at disseminating the lessons of the Programme and adding to the momentum needed for the acceptance of change in society. It will contribute to creating the political conditions necessary for legislative or other developments.With the aim of supporting and improving the synergy between national policies on gender equality and also to develop a Community added value, this strand will support the implementation of initiatives, to be developed by the Member States authorities, on particular topics approved annually, after discussion with the Programme Committee.It includes classical information and communication tools and targeted visibility/awareness-raising events or campaigns.-  Analysis and evaluation (Strand 2)This strand aims at developing and improving various tools for collecting information, putting it into a useable and comparable form and ensuring its dissemination to the target players in the Member States. This will build on work carried out during the previous equality programmes.The Programme should assist players in the different Member States to learn from the experience of others, with the objective of improving the effectiveness of their efforts to promote gender equality. Information about what is happening in the Member States needs therefore to be made available in a form which is readily accessible and which will be used by the players.-  Capacity building (Strand 3)This strand aims at adding value to the capacity of players to address gender equality effectively. This is achieved by disseminating to these players good practices and lessons from experience and involving them in a process of transnational exchange and dialogue at EU level.Past experience related to the grounds for combating gender discrimination has underlined the importance of working in partnership with target players in the Member States and with organisations working in the field of gender equality. Previous Community action in the field of equal opportunities between women and men and initiatives in the fields of disability and social inclusion have shown the value of bringing players together in transnational partnerships which can form the basis for the exchange of good practice.5.3. Methods of implementationThe delivery mechanisms stipulated in the proposal are in keeping with to the classic Community approach to grants and co-funding on the basis of a detailed financial request. The actions to be taken may be funded by service contracts following open calls for tender or restricted calls for proposals addressed to the Member States or by subsidies for joint financing with other sources. In the latter case, the level of financial assistance from the Commission may not exceed, as a general rule, 80% of the expenditure actually incurred by the recipient. The Programme is managed centrally by the Commission.The programme budget may also cover expenditure associated with preparation, follow-up, monitoring, auditing and evaluation activities directly necessary for the management of the programme and for the realisation of its objectives, such as studies, meetings, information and publication activities, expenditure associated with IT networks for the exchange of information and any other administrative and technical support expenditure on which the Commission may decide for the management of the programme.6.

FOLLOW-UP AND EVALUATION8.1. Follow-up arrangementsThe prolongation will continue to be implemented along the same lines as the Programme in its first five years. Implementation will involve participation in selection panels of calls for proposals, monitoring of ongoing contracts and financial control of all transactions between the Commission and the beneficiaries.8.2. Arrangements and schedule for the planned evaluationThe Programme will be monitored throughout its operation. The Programme Committee will receive regular information prepared by the Commission. The monitoring will be adapted according to the needs of each of the strands and will include aspects of both quality assurance and financial regularity.In addition, the Programme is subject to an interim report on its implementation which is currently in the process of adoption / has been adopted by the Commission on …[10]. The ongoing evaluation will continue to provide the Commission with regular evaluation findings until the final report on the implementation of the Framework Strategy and this Programme which will be drawn up by 31 December 2006. The Commission was and will be assisted by external evaluators for both reports.9. ANTI-FRAUD MEASURESAll the measures funded are subject to ex ante, in itinere and ex post analysis by the responsible departments as regards content quality and cost-effectiveness. The grant application forms will require information on the identity and nature of potential beneficiaries so that their reliability can be assessed in advance. Fraud prevention measures (checks, reports) are included in the agreements or contracts between the Commission and beneficiaries. The Commission will check reports and ensure that work has been properly carried out before intermediate and/or final payments are made. Special attention will be made in order to avoid double funding. In addition, controls by the Commission or the Court of Auditors of the European Communities may be carried out on the basis of documents or on the spot.LEGISLATIVE FINANCIAL STATEMENTPolicy area(s): Employment and Social Affairs – Equality for men and women Activit(y/ies): Support for the promotion of gender equality |TITLE OF ACTION: DECISION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL amending Council Decision 2001/51/EC establishing a Programme relating to the Community framework strategy on gender equality and Decision No 848/2004/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing a Community action programme to promote organisations active at European level in the field of equality between men and women Amendment to Council Decision No 848/2004/EC |1.

The prolongation is deemed necessary to guarantee continuity of Community action in a transitional period characterised by important institutional changes (enlargement of the Union, a new European Parliament and a new Commission) until the adoption of a new comprehensive multiannual Framework Programme on the financing of actions in the employment and social field including gender equality.The objective of the Decision remains unchanged: to support the activities of organisations active at European level in the field of equality for women and men, of which an ongoing programme of work or a specific action serves the general European interest the field of equality for women and men or pursues an objective which is part of the European Union's policy in this area.5.1.2. Measures taken in connection with ex ante evaluationThe Programme which it is proposed to extend is a new one aimed at providing a legal basis for awarding grants to organisations active at European level in the field of equality for men and women for the years 2004 and 2005. Its adoption was made necessary by the new structure of the Commission’s budget under the new Financial Regulation with effect from 2004.5.1.3. Measures taken following ex post evaluationThe activities of the European Women's Lobby have in the past been subject to several annual evaluations by the Commission's departments. In addition, an audit report was drawn up in 1999 at the European Parliament's request. These results have shown that the Lobby's activities have an effective, significant impact, in particular by informing women of their rights, and that it has a substantial influence on policymakers at European, national, regional and local level with regard to the promotion of gender equality.A report presenting the results obtained by the beneficiaries is scheduled for December 2006, in particular with a view to assessing its effectiveness as regards the achievement of its objectives.5.2. Action envisaged and budget intervention arrangementsIn the context of the Amsterdam Treaty, gender mainstreaming has been firmly anchored in Article 3. In parallel to gender mainstreaming, specific actions in favour of women have proved to be essential in order to eliminate persistent inequalities. The activities of certain organisations help to promote gender equality. The European Women's Lobby in particular, which is present in almost all Member States and has over 3000 members, plays a major role in promoting, monitoring and disseminating Community measures aimed at women with a view to achieving equality between women and men.The general objective of the Programme is to reinforce Community action in the field of equality between men and women and the effectiveness of such action by offering financial support to organisations active at European level in the field of equality between women and men, including the European Women's Lobby.The activities carried out by organisations which are eligible to receive a Community grant under the Programme will come under one of the following strands:Strand 1 : ongoing activities of the European Women's Lobby, whose members are, inter alia , women's organisations in the Member States of the European Union, subject to observance of the following principles:– it must be free to select its members,– it must be free to pursue its activities.Strand 2 : ongoing activities of an organisation pursuing an objective of general European interest in the field of gender equality or an objective forming part of the European Union's policy in this area. This applies to a non-profit-making body carrying out its activities exclusively in order to achieve equality between women and men or an organisation with a wider aim which carries out part of its activities exclusively to promote equality between women and men. An annual operating grant may be awarded to support the implementation of such an organisation's ongoing programme of work.Strand 3 : specific actions of an organisation pursuing an objective of general European interest in the field of equality between women and men or an objective forming part of the European Union's policy in this area.5.3. Methods of implementationThe delivery mechanisms stipulated in the proposal are in keeping with the classic Community approach to grants and co-funding on the basis of a detailed financial request. The actions to be taken may be funded by subsidies for joint financing with other sources. In this case, the level of financial assistance from the Commission may not exceed, as a general rule, 80% of the expenditure actually incurred by the recipient. The Programme is managed centrally by the Commission6. FINANCIAL IMPACT6.1. Total financial impact on Part B (over the entire programming period)(The method of calculating the total amounts set out in the table below must be explained by the breakdown in Table 6.2. )6.1.1.

FOLLOW-UP AND EVALUATION8.1. Follow-up arrangementsThe prolongation will continue to be implemented along the same lines as the Programme in its first two years. Implementation will involve participation in selection panels of calls for proposals, monitoring of ongoing contracts and financial control of all transactions between the Commission and the beneficiaries.8.2. Arrangements and schedule for the planned evaluationGiven that this Programme is designed to promote gender equality, the functions of monitoring and evaluation naturally form part of the activities implemented, in such a way as to derive maximum benefit from them.The Programme is subject to the submission of a report by the Commission to the European Parliament and the Council on the achievement of its objectives. This report shall be based on the results obtained by the beneficiaries and shall assess, in particular, their effectiveness in achieving the said objectives.9. ANTI-FRAUD MEASURESAll the measures funded are subject to ex ante, in itinere and ex post analysis by the responsible departments as regards content quality and cost-effectiveness. The grant application forms will require information on the identity and nature of potential beneficiaries so that their reliability can be assessed in advance. Fraud prevention measures (checks, reports) are included in the agreements or contracts between the Commission and beneficiaries. The Commission will check reports and ensure that work has been properly carried out before intermediate and/or final payments are made. Special attention will be made in order to avoid double funding. In addition, controls by the Commission or the Court of Auditors of the European Communities may be carried out on the basis of documents or on the spot.

			Proposta għal DEĊIŻJONI TAL-KUNSILL dwar il-pożizzjoni li għandha tiġi adottata f’isem l-Unjoni Ewropea fl-Organizzazzjoni Marittima Internazzjonali matul l-94 sessjoni tal-Kumitat tas-Sikurezza Marittima dwar l-adozzjoni ta’ emendi tal-Kodiċi tal-Programm ta’ Stħarriġ Imtejjeb tal-2011 /* COM/2014/0627 final - 2014/0291 (NLE) */

			   	MEMORANDUM TA’ SPJEGAZZJONI
1.           INTRODUZZJONI
1.1         Din il-proposta
tal-Kummissjoni tikkonċerna l-istabbiliment tal-pożizzjoni tal-Unjoni
fl-94 sessjoni tal-Kumitat tas-Sikurezza Marittima tal-IMO relatata mal-emendi
għall-Kodiċi ta' Programm ta' Stħarriġ Imtejjeb tal-2011
kif stipulat hawn taħt:
1.2         L-Iskema ta' Valutazzjoni
tal-Kondizzjoni (CAS) tal-Organizzazzjoni Marittima Internazzjonali
tistabbilixxi l-qafas għal spezzjoni intensifikata ta’bastimenti li
għandhom aktar minn 15-il sena. Il-Programm ta’ Spezzjonijiet Imtejjeb
matul stħarriġ ta’ Bastimenti ta' Tagħbija bl-Ingrossa u ta’
Tankers taż-Żejt jew il-Programm ta’ Stħarriġ Imtejjeb
(ESP) jispeċifika kif issir l-ispezzjoni intensifikata. Peress li l-CAS tuża
l-ESP biex tikseb l-għan tagħha, il-CAS tirreferi għall-ESP
bħala għodda biex tagħmel dan. Dawn l-emendi tal-Kodiċi ESP
għandhom l-għan li l-Kodiċi ESP tinġieb f’konformità
mal-prattiki attwali tal-Assoċjazzjoni Internazzjonali tas-Soċjetajiet
tal-Klassifikazzjoni (IACS) u jippermettu wkoll li jitħallew isiru,
taħt ċerti kundizzjonijiet, testijiet idrostatiċi tat-tankijiet
tal-merkanzija mill-ekwipaġġ tal-bastiment, taħt it-tmexxija
tal-kaptan, minflok ma jitwettqu t-tali testijiet fil-preżenza ta’ sorveljant.
1.3         Dawn il-modifiki huma
stipulati fl-Anness 22 f’MSC 93/22/Add.3. Il-Paragrafu 10.8
tar-rapport MSC 93 (MSC 93/22) jindika li dawn l-emendi se jiġu
adottati f’MSC 94.
2.           ADOZZJONI TAL-EMENDI TAL-IMO
2.1         L-adozzjoni ta’ emendi
tal-Kodiċi tal-Programm ta’ Stħarriġ Imtejjeb tal-2011
Dawn l-emendi ġew approvati waqt
it-93 sessjoni tal-laqgħa tal-Kumitat tas-Sikurezza Marittima li
saret bejn l-14 u t-23 ta’ Mejju 2014 u għandhom jitressqu
għall-adozzjoni fl-94 sessjoni ta’ dik il-laqgħa tal-Kumitat li se
ssir bejn is-17 u l-21 ta' Novembru 2014.
2.2         Aċċettazzjoni u
dħul fis-seħħ.
Ladarba jiġu approvati u adottati minn dan
il-Kumitat, l-emendi msemmija hawn fuq se jitressqu quddiem il-partijiet
kontraenti rispettivi sabiex dawn jesprimu l-kunsens tagħhom li jintrabtu
bl-emendi msemmija.
3.           LEĠIŻLAZZJONI
RILEVANTI U KOMPETENZI TAL-UE
3.1         L-emendi tal-Kodiċi
tal-Programm ta’ Stħarriġ Imtejjeb (ESP) tal-2011
Ir-Regolament (UE) Nru 530/2012[1] dwar l-introduzzjoni
aċċellerata ta’ rekwiżiti ta’ buq doppju jew ta’ disinn
ekwivalenti għal tankers taż-żejt b’buq wieħed għandu
l-għan li jistabbilixxi skema aċċellerata
għall-applikazzjoni ta’ rekwiżiti ta’ buq doppju jew ta’ disinn
ekwivalenti ta’ MARPOL 73/78, kif definiti fl-Artikolu 3 ta’ dan
ir-Regolament, għat-tankers taż-żejt li għandhom buq
wieħed, u li jiġi pprojbit it-trasport lejn u minn portijiet
tal-Istati Membri ta’ żejt tqil f’tankers taż-żejt b’buq
wieħed.
Dan ir-Regolament jagħmel obbligatorju
l-applikazzjoni ta’ Skema ta' Valutazzjoni tal-Kondizzjoni tal-IMO (CAS)
għat-tankers taż-żejt b’buq wieħed li għandhom aktar
minn ħmistax-il sena. L-Artikolu 5 jeħtieġ li dawn it-tankers
jikkonformaw mal-CAS, li mbagħad hija ddefinita fl-Artikolu 6
bħala l-Iskema ta' Valutazzjoni tal-Kondizzjoni adottata permezz tar-Riżoluzzjoni
MEPC 94(46) tas-27 ta’ April 2001 kif emendata
bir-Riżoluzzjoni MEPC 99(48) tal-11 ta’ Ottubru 2002 u
bir-Riżoluzzjoni MEPC 112(50)
tal-4 ta’ Diċembru 2003. Il-Programm ta' Spezzjonijiet
Imtejjeb matul kontrolli ta' Bastimenti ta' Tagħbija bl-Ingrossa u ta'
Tankers taż-Żejt jew il-Programm ta' Stħarriġ Imtejjeb
(ESP) jispeċifika kif issir din il-valutazzjoni intensifikata. Peress li
l-CAS tuża l-ESP bħala għodda biex tikseb l-għan
tagħha, kwalunkwe bidla fl-ispezzjonijiet ESP se tkun applikabbli
direttament u awtomatikament permezz tar-Regolament (UE) Nru 530/2012.
Għaldaqstant, l-emendi li jridu jiġu
adottati f'MSC 94, li jintroduċu bidliet fil-Kodiċi ESP, se
jaffettwaw il-liġi tal-UE, permezz tal-applikazzjoni tar-Regolament (UE)
Nru 530/2012.
3.2         Sommarju
Fid-dawl tal-leġiżlazzjoni rilevanti
tal-UE ta' hawn fuq, il-Kummissjoni tqis li l-adozzjoni tal-emendi msemmija
hawn fuq u li mistennija jiġu adottati fit-93 sessjoni tal-MSC jaqgħu
taħt il-kompetenza esklussiva tal-UE, li l-Unjoni kisbet permezz
tal-Artikolu 3(2) tat-TFUE, sakemm l-adozzjoni tal-istrumenti
internazzjonali kkonċernati taffettwa r-regoli komuni.
B'konsistenza ma’ ġurisprudenza konsolidata
b’mod tajjeb, anke jekk l-Unjoni mhijiex membru tal-IMO, l-Istati Membri
mhumiex awtorizzati li jieħdu obbligi li x’aktarx se jaffettwaw regoli
tal-UE li ġew adottati għall-ksib tal-għanijiet tat-Trattati,
sakemm dawn ma jkunux awtorizzati li jagħmlu dan permezz ta’
Deċiżjoni tal-Kunsill, fuq proposta mill-Kummissjoni.
4.           KONKLUŻJONI
Għaldaqstant, il-Kummissjoni tipproponi
Deċiżjoni tal-Kunsill dwar il-pożizzjoni li għandha
tiġi adottata f’isem l-Unjoni Ewropea fir-rigward tal-emendi msemmija
fil-paragrafi 1.2 sa 1.3 ta' hawn fuq u li għandhom jiġu adottati
fl-94 sessjoni tal-Kumitat tas-Sikurezza Marittima rispettivament.
2014/0291 (NLE)
Proposta għal
DEĊIŻJONI TAL-KUNSILL
dwar il-pożizzjoni li għandha
tiġi adottata f’isem l-Unjoni Ewropea fl-Organizzazzjoni Marittima
Internazzjonali matul l-94 sessjoni tal-Kumitat tas-Sikurezza Marittima dwar
l-adozzjoni ta’ emendi tal-Kodiċi tal-Programm ta’ Stħarriġ
Imtejjeb tal-2011
IL-KUNSILL TA' L-UNJONI EWROPEA,
Wara li kkunsidra t-Trattat dwar
il-Funzjonament tal-Unjoni Ewropea, u b’mod partikolari l-Artikolu 100(2) u
l-Artikolu 218(9) tiegħu,
Wara li kkunsidra l-proposta mill-Kummissjoni
Ewropea,
Billi:
(1)       L-azzjoni mill-Unjoni Ewropea
fis-settur tat-trasport marittimu għandu jkollha l-għan li ttejjeb
is-sikurezza marittima.
(2)       Waqt it-93 sessjoni
tal-laqgħa tal-Kumitat tas-Sikurezza Marittima (MSC) tal-IMO ġew
approvati emendi għall-Kodiċi tal-Programm ta’ Stħarriġ
Imtejjeb tal-2011 Dawk l-emendi huma mistennija li jiġu adottati fl-94
sessjoni tal-MSC, li ser issir f'Novembru 2014.
(3)       L-emendi
għall-Kodiċi tal-Programm ta’ Stħarriġ Imtejjeb (ESP)
tal-2011 jagħmluh konformi mal-prattiki tas-soċjetajiet
tal-klassifikazzjoni u jippermettu wkoll li jitħallew isiru, taħt
ċerti kundizzjonijiet, testijiet idrostatiċi tat-tankijiet
tal-merkanzija mill-ekwipaġġ tal-bastiment, taħt it-tmexxija
tal-kaptan, minflok ma jitwettqu t-tali testijiet fil-preżenza ta’
sorveljant.
(4)       L-Artikoli 5 u 6
tar-Regolament (UE) Nru 530/2012 tal-Parlament Ewropew u tal-Kunsill[2] jagħmlu
obbligatorja l-applikazzjoni tal-Iskema ta' Valutazzjoni tal-Kondizzjoni
tal-IMO (CAS) għat-tankers taż-żejt b'buq wieħed li
jkollhom aktar minn 15-il sena. Il-Programm ta' Spezzjonijiet Imtejjeb matul
kontrolli ta' Bastimenti ta' Tagħbija bl-Ingrossa u ta' Tankers
taż-Żejt jew il-Programm ta' Stħarriġ Imtejjeb (ESP)
jispeċifika kif issir din il-valutazzjoni intensifikata. Peress li l-CAS
tuża l-ESP bħala għodda biex tikseb l-għan tagħha,
kwalunkwe bidla fl-ispezzjonijiet ESP se tkun applikabbli awtomatikament
permezz tar-Regolament (UE) Nru 530/2012.
(5)       L-Unjoni la hija Membru
tal-IMO u lanqas ma hija parti kontraenti għall-konvenzjonijiet u
l-kodiċijiet ikkonċernati. Huwa għalhekk meħtieġ li
l-Kunsill jawtorizza lill-Istati Membri biex jesprimu l-pożizzjoni
tal-Unjoni u biex jesprimu l-kunsens tagħhom li jintrabtu b’dawn l-emendi.
ADOTTA DIN ID-DEĊIŻJONI:

            Proposta għal
            DEĊIŻJONI TAL-KUNSILL
            dwar l-adozzjoni tal-pożizzjoni f'isem l-Unjoni Ewropea f'dak li għandu x'jaqsam mal-Abbozz tad-Deċiżjoni Nru 1/2016 tal-Kumitat Konġunt stabbilit skont il-Ftehim Interbus tat-trasport internazzjonali okkażjonali tal-passiġġieri bil-kowċ u bix-xarabank
            (Test b'rilevanza għaż-ŻEE)

               MEMORANDUM TA’ SPJEGAZZJONI

               1.IL-KUNTEST TAL-PROPOSTA

               •Ir-raġunijiet għall-proposta u l-għanijiet tagħha

                  Il-Ftehim Interbus tat-trasport okkażjonali internazzjonali tal-passiġġieri bil-kowċ u bix-xarabank
                     1
                   daħal fis-seħħ fl-1 ta’ Jannar 2003. Il-Ftehim aktar tard ġie aġġornat bid-Deċiżjoni tal-Kumitat Konġunt Nru 1/2011
                     2
                  . Il-Kumitat Konġunt adotta wkoll ir-Rakkomandazzjoni 1/2011
                     3
                   li tikkonċerna l-użu ta’ rapport tekniku għall-kowċis u x-xarabanks.

                  Wasal iż-żmien li l-Ftehim jiġi aġġornat mill-ġdid, u li jiġu inkorporati l-atti li s’issa għadhom ma ġewx inkorporati fil-Ftehim, b’mod partikolari l-atti sussegwenti għal dawk koperti bid-Deċiżjoni Nru 1/2011 tal-Kumitat Konġunt.

                  Din id-Deċiżjoni tal-Kunsill proposta hija maħsuba biex tistabbilixxi l-pożizzjoni tal-Unjoni f'dak li għandu x'jaqsam mal-abbozz tad-Deċiżjoni Nru 1/2016 tal-Kumitat Konġunt stabbilit skont l-Artikolu 23 tal-Ftehim Interbus.

               •Il-konsistenza mad-dispożizzjonijiet eżistenti ta’ politika fil-qasam ta’ politika

                  L-aġġornament leġiżlattiv huwa konsistenti mal-politika tat-trasport tal-UE peress li jestendi, fil-prattika, l-applikazzjoni tal-iktar leġiżlazzjoni riċenti tal-UE dwar it-trasport tal-passiġġieri, rilevanti għas-settur, għal Partijiet Kontraenti għajr l-Unjoni Ewropea
                     4
                   u b’hekk titjieb is-sikurezza fit-toroq, l-affidabbiltà stradali u l-kondizzjonijiet soċjali tas-sewwieqa f' dak li għandu x'jaqsam mal-operazzjonijiet tat-trasport li jaqgħu taħt il-Ftehim.

                  Bl-għan li tiġi żgurata, fil-kuntest ta’ operazzjonijiet ta' dan it-tip, l-applikazzjoni ta’ regoli komuni, b’mod partikolari fl-oqsma msemmija hawn fuq, huwa tabilħaqq essenzjali li l-leġiżlazzjoni tal-UE li għadha ma ġietx inkorporata tkun koperta bid-Deċiżjoni tal-Kumitat Konġunt prevista.

               •Il-konsistenza ma' politiki oħrajn tal-Unjoni

                  L-aġġornament leġiżlattiv propost huwa konsistenti mal-politika tal-viċinat tal-UE u mar-relazzjonijiet esterni.

                  L-abbozz tad-Deċiżjoni tal-Kumitat Konġunt fl-Anness hija kompletament konsistenti mal-ftehimiet tal-Unjoni bħal pereżempju l-Ftehim tal-Unjoni Doganali u l-Fethimiet ta' Qabel l-Adeżjoni u kif ukoll il-ftehimiet ta’ Assoċjazzjoni u huwa maħsub biex jaġġorna l-ambjent regolatorju li fih il-pajjiżi ġirien tal-UE jkollhom aċċess għas-suq tat-trasport tal-passiġġieri tal-UE (u viċi versa).

               2.L-ELEMENTI LEGALI

               •Il-bażi ġuridika

                  Fin-nuqqas ta' awtorizzazzjoni lill-Kummissjoni skont l-Artikolu 218(7) tat-Trattat dwar il-Funzjonament tal-Unjoni Ewropea (TFUE)
                     5
                  , il-bażi ġuridika hija l-Artikolu 218(9) TFUE, flimkien mal-bażi ġuridika sostantiva, jiġifieri l-Artikolu 91 TFUE.

               •Is-sussidjarjetà (għall-kompetenza mhux esklużiva)

                  L-Unjoni għandha kompetenza esklużiva f'din il-kwistjoni minħabba li l-pożizzjoni tal-Unjoni bħala Parti għal dan il-Ftehim tista’ tiġi adottata biss mill-Unjoni nnifisha.

               •Il-proporzjonalità

               Id-Deċiżjoni tal-Kumitat Konġunt prevista hija limitata għall-inkorporazzjoni tal-leġiżlazzjoni eżistenti tal-UE fil-Ftehim. Dan huwa meħtieġ biex ir-regoli applikabbli fi ħdan il-Ftehim jiġu adattati għar-regoli tal-UE, b’mod partikolari f'dak li għandu x'jaqsam mal-kondizzjonijiet li japplikaw għall-operaturi tat-trasport bit-triq tal-passiġġieri u mal-kondizzjonijiet tekniċi li japplikaw għall-vetturi u għad-dispożizzjonijiet soċjali.

               •L-għażla tal-istrument

                  L-Artikolu 218(9) TFUE jipprevedi Deċiżjoni tal-Kunsill bħala l-istrument applikabbli.

               3.IL-ĠBIR U L-UŻU TAL-GĦARFIEN ESPERT U L-VALUTAZZJONI TAL-IMPATT / IS-SIMPLIFIKAZZJONI

               •Il-ġbir u l-użu tal-għarfien u l-valutazzjoni tal-impatt

                  Il-Kummissjoni la wettqet valutazzjoni tal-impatt u lanqas ma użat għarfien espert estern. Il-leġiżlazzjoni proposta biex tiġi inkorporata f’dan il-Ftehim Interbus, sabiex tapplika għall-operazzjonijiet kollha mwettqa skont dak il-Ftehim, diġà qed tiġi applikata mill-UE.

                  L-inkorporazzjoni tal-acquis tal-Unjoni eżistenti ma tbiddilx id-drittijiet tat-traffiku eżistenti skont il-Ftehim. Dan se jkollu impatt pożittiv fuq il-kundizzjonijiet tekniċi, ekonomiċi u soċjali rilevanti li skonthom jitwettqu l-operazzjonijiet relevanti.

               •Is-simplifikazzjoni

                  L-adattament għall-acquis tal-UE tar-regoli applikabbli għall-operazzjonijiet imwettqa fi ħdan il-Ftehim se jissimplifika t-twettiq ta’ operazzjonijiet ta' dan it-tip.

                  Simili għall-passat, l-operaturi jistgħu jkunu l-SMEs bi flotta iżgħar tal-kowċis jew xarabanks jew kumpaniji ikbar bi flotot akbar.

                  Ir-Rakkomandazzjoni tal-Kumitat Konġunt Nru 1/2011 titħassar wara l-inklużjoni tal-Ftehim tad-Direttiva 2000/30/KE tal-Parlament Ewropew u tal-Kunsill tas-6 ta' Ġunju 2000 dwar l-ispezzjoni teknika tal-ġenb tat-triq biex jiġi stabbilit jekk il-vetturi kummerċjali li jiċċirkulaw fil-Komunità humiex tajba għat-triq
                     6
                  . Din id-Direttiva fiha mudell għal rapport ta’ spezzjoni teknika maġenb it-triq li jinkorpora lista ta' kontrolli simili għal dik irrakkomandata mill-Kumitat Konġunt fir-Rakkomandazzjoni tagħhom Nru 1/2011. Barra minn hekk, xi wħud mill-atti tal-Unjoni msemmija f’dik ir-Rakkomandazzjoni skadew.
