Introduction 1. 1 1. 2 1. 3 1. 4 On 6 April 1995 the Commission presented a proposal for a Parliament and Council Decision establishing a Community action programme in the field of cultural heritage - the Raphaël programme (COM(95) 110 final). On 8 July 1996 the Council adopted a common position on the Commission proposal pursuant to the second subparagraph of Article 189b(2) of the EC Treaty (Common Position (EC) No 51/96). On 22 October 1996 Parliament delivered its opinion on the Council's Common Position pursuant to Article 189b(2)(d) of the EC Treaty. In this document the Commission sets out its opinion on the seven amendments proposed by Parliament, as required by Article 189b(2)(d) of the EC Treaty. The reasons for this opinion are explained in paragraph 3 below. In Annex 1 the left-hand column shows the relevant sections of the Common Position before amendment whilst the right-hand column shows those same sections incorporating the amendments accepted by the Commission. 2. Aims of the proposal The aim of the proposal is that Parliament and the Council should adopt, under the co-decision procedure, a programme concerning Europe's movable and non-movable cultural heritage. The aim of the action programme is to give fresh impetus to Community activities in this field, which has been designated as a priority area for Community cultural action. This programme, which calls for the pooling of expertise on quality projects with a European dimension, should make a significant contribution to "creating an ever-closer union among the people's of Europe"1 and "to the flowering of the cultures of the Member States, while respecting their national and regional diversity and at the same time bringing the common cultural heritage to the fore"2 and should serve to affirm European citizenship. The programme is designed to encourage cooperation between Member States and to support and supplement the action taken by Member States, by the regions and by the various cultural bodies, both public and private. 1 2 Treaty on European Union, Article A. EC Treaty, Article 128(1). 2 The specific objectives of the programme may be classified as follows: Action I Conservation, protection and development of the European cultural heritage by means of European cooperation Action II Cooperation for the exchange of know-how and the development of the techniques applied in the heritage sector Action III Public access, involvement and awareness Action IV Cooperation with non-member countries and international organizations. 3. Commission position on the amendments proposed by Parliament at second reading 3. 1 Amendments accepted The Commission accepts 5 of the 7 amendments proposed by Parliament, namely amendments 1, 2, 6, 7 and 8. Amendments 1. 2 and 8 clarify the distinction between heritage and tourism and redefine the "sensitive" groups. Amendment 6 would delete the Article providing for a review of the overall budget, which the common position sets at ECU 30 million for four years. As the Commission maintains five years or ECU 57 million for four years), there would be no need for a review of the budgetary allocation. The Commission therefore agrees that this Article should be deleted. (ECU 67 million its proposal for Amendment 7 would raise the maximum amount for projects under Action I. The Commission feels that the new ceiling (ECU 250 000) is more realistic, particularly after one year of implementing the preparatory measures for Raphaël. 3. 2 Amendments rejected Amendments 4 and 5 are rejected: Amendment 4 would delete Article 8, which contains the advisory committee procedure (procedure I of Decision 87/373/EEC) to which the Commission remains attached, having mentioned it expressly in its statement when the common position was adopted and repeated it in its communication to Parliament on the common position. At the same time the Commission also reserved the right to review the entire wording of Articles 7 and 8. It is therefore with a view to remaining coherent that it has rejected amendment 4. 3 Amendment 5 provides for an overall budget of ECU 86 million for a four-year period (1997-2000) instead of the ECU 30 million which the Common Position would make available over the same period. The Commission maintains its original proposal of ECU 67 million over five years (1996-2000) that is, ECU 57 million for 1997-2000; 4. Conclusion The Commission recommends that the Council approve the amended proposal shown at Annex I.

ÕIGUSTE OMANDILINE KUULUVUS NING NENDE JAGAMINE JA TEOSTAMINE 1. Kogu käesoleva lepingu kohaselt tehtav teadustöö on “ühine teadustöö”. Ühises teadustöös osalejad koostavad ühised tehnoloogiahalduskavad (ÜTHK), (1) mis sisaldavad vähemalt ühise teadustöö käigus tekkiva teabe ja intellektuaalomandi omandilist kuuluvust ja kasutamist, sealhulgas avaldamist käsitlevaid põhimõtteid. Teadustöö rahastamises osaleva lepinguosalise vastutav rahastamisasutus või -amet kinnitab ÜTHKd enne konkreetse teadus- ja arenduskoostöölepingu sõlmimist, millele need lisatakse. ÜTHKde koostamisel võetakse arvesse ühise teadustöö eesmärke, osalejate suhtelist panust, territoriaalse või kasutusvaldkonniti litsentsimise häid ja halbu külgi, kohaldatavate õigusaktidega kehtestatud nõudeid, vajadust vaidluste lahendamise korra järele ja muid tegureid, mida osalejad asjakohaseks peavad. ÜTHKdes sätestatakse ka külalisteadlaste tehtava teadustöö ja loodava teabega seotud intellektuaalomandialased õigused ja kohustused. 2. Ühise teadustöö käigus tekkiv teave ja intellektuaalomand, mida ei ole ÜTHKs sätestatud, jagatakse I jao punktiga 1 ettenähtud korras kõnealuses ÜTHKs sätestatud põhimõtete kohaselt. Lahkarvamuse korral, mida ei saa kokkulepitud vaidluste lahendamise korras lahendada, kuulub selline jagamata teave või intellektuaalomand ühiselt kõikidele osalejatele, kes tegelesid ühise teadustööga, millest see teave või intellektuaalomand tulenes, ja igal osalejal, kelle suhtes seda sätet kohaldatakse, on õigus kasutada sellist teavet või intellektuaalomandit oma ärilistel eesmärkidel ja geograafiliste piiranguteta. 3. Kumbki lepinguosaline tagab kooskõlas kohaldatavate õigusaktidega, et teisel lepinguosalisel ja tema osalejatel on võimalus saada õigusi intellektuaalomandile käesoleva lisa I jaos sätestatud põhimõtete kohaselt. 4. Säilitades käesoleva lepinguga hõlmatud valdkondades konkurentsitingimusi, püüab kumbki lepinguosaline tagada, et käesoleva lepingu ja selle kohaselt sõlmitud kokkulepete alusel omandatud õigusi teostatakse nii, et soodustatakse eelkõige: i) käesoleva lepingu kohaselt saadud, avaldatud või muul viisil kättesaadavaks tehtud teabe levitamist ja kasutamist; ii) rahvusvaheliste normide vastuvõtmist ja rakendamist. II. AUTORIÕIGUSEGA KAITSTAVAD TÖÖD Lepinguosalistele või nende osalejatele kuuluvaid autoriõigusi käsitletakse kooskõlas Berni konventsiooniga (1971. aasta Pariisi akt). III. TEADUSLIKUD KIRJATÖÖD Kui IV jaost ei tulene teisiti ja kui ÜTHKs ei ole kokku lepitud teisiti, avaldavad osalejad kõik ühise teadustöö tulemused ühiselt. Lisaks eespool esitatud üldreeglile kohaldatakse järgmist korda: 1. 2. 3. kui lepinguosaline või tema avalikud asutused avaldavad käesoleva lepingu kohase ühise teadustöö põhjal teaduslikke ja tehnilisi ajakirju, artikleid, aruandeid ja raamatuid, sealhulgas videolinte ja tarkvara, on teisel lepinguosalisel kirjastaja kirjalikul loal õigus saada ülemaailmne, tühistamatu ja kasutustasuta lihtlitsents selliste tööde tõlkimiseks, paljundamiseks, kohandamiseks, edastamiseks ja avalikuks levitamiseks; lepinguosalised püüavad võimalikult laialdaselt levitada teaduslikku laadi kirjatöid, mis tulenevad käesoleva lepingu kohasest ühisest teadustööst ja mille avaldavad sõltumatud kirjastajad; kõikidel autoriõigusega kaitstud tööde eksemplaridel, mida levitatakse avalikult ja mis valmistatakse käesoleva sätte alusel, esitatakse töö autori nimi või autorite nimed, välja arvatud juhul, kui autor või autorid on selgesõnaliselt keeldunud nimetamisest. Eksemplaridel on samuti selgelt näha märge lepinguosaliste koostööpanuse kohta. (1) Selliste ÜTHKde tunnusjooned on sätestatud liites. 11/26. kd ET Euroopa Liidu Teataja 323 IV. AVALDAMATA TEAVE A. Dokumentaalne avaldamata teave 1. Mõlemad lepinguosalised või nende osalejad määravad võimalikult kiiresti ja eelistatavalt ÜTHKs kindlaks teabe, mille avalikustamist käesoleva lepingu kohaselt ei soovita, võttes muu hulgas arvesse järgmisi asjaolusid: — teabe salajasus, mis tähendab, et teave tervikuna või oma teatavas koosseisus või koostisosade kogumina ei ole selle valdkonna ekspertidele üldteada ega seaduslikul viisil hõlpsasti juurdepääsetav, — teabe tegelik või võimalik kaubanduslik väärtus, mis tuleneb selle salajasusest, — teabe varasem kaitse selles mõttes, et teavet seaduslikult valdav isik on teabe salajas hoidmiseks võtnud olukorrakohaseid meetmeid. 2. Üldjuhul ei nõuta osalejatelt avaldamata teabe esitamist lepinguosalistele. Kui selline teave saab lepinguosalistele teatavaks, arvestavad nad selle salajasust ega avalikusta seda, ka mitte lepinguosaliste siseselt või vaheliselt, kui neil ei ole selle osaleja või nende osalejate kirjalikku nõusolekut, kellele see teave kuulub. Need piirangud lõppevad automaatselt, kui sellise teabe omanik avalikustab teabe valdkonna ekspertidele piiranguteta. 3. Kumbki lepinguosaline tagab, et teine lepinguosaline tunneb kergesti ära talle käesoleva lepingu kohaselt edastatud avaldamata teabe ja saab aru selle salajasusest näiteks asjakohase märke või piirava seletuskirja järgi. See kehtib ka nimetatud teabe täieliku või osalise reprodutseerimise puhul. 4. Vastuvõttev lepinguosaline võib käesoleva lepingu kohaselt talle teise lepinguosalise poolt edastatud avaldamata teavet levitada oma koosseisus olevatele isikutele või oma töötajatele ning muudele oma asjaomastele ametitele ja asutustele, kellel on käimasoleva ühise teadustöö eriotstarvetega seotud volitused, tingimusel et sellisel viisil levitatud avaldamata teabe suhtes kohaldatakse kirjalikku kokkulepet konfidentsiaalsuse kohta ja see teave on kooskõlas eespool sätestatuga sellisena kergesti äratuntav. 5. Käesoleva lepingu kohaselt avaldamata teavet esitava lepinguosalise eelneval kirjalikul nõusolekul võib vastuvõttev lepinguosaline levitada sellist avaldamata teavet laiemalt, kui on lubatud punktis 3. Lepinguosalised teevad sellist laiemat levitamist käsitleva eelneva kirjaliku nõusoleku taotlemise ja andmise korra koostamiseks koostööd ja kumbki lepinguosaline annab kõnealuse nõusoleku oma siseriiklike põhimõtete ja õigusnormidega lubatud ulatuses. B. Mittedokumentaalne avaldamata teave Lepinguosalised või nende osalejad käsitlevad käesoleva lepingu alusel korraldatud seminaridel või muudel nõupidamistel esitatud mittedokumentaalset avaldamata teavet või muud salajast või piiratud levikuga teavet või töötajate töölevõtmisest, teadusrajatiste kasutamisest või ühisprojektidest tulenevat teavet IV jao A alajaos esitatud põhimõtete kohaselt, tingimusel et sellise avaldamata või muu salajase või piiratud levikuga teabe vastuvõtjat on siiski eelnevalt kirjalikult teavitatud edastatava teabe salajasusest. C. Järelevalve Mõlemad lepinguosalised teevad kõik endast sõltuva tagamaks, et avaldamata teavet, mida nad saavad käesoleva lepingu kohaselt, käsitletakse lepingus sätestatud tingimustel. Kui ühele lepinguosalisele saab teatavaks, et ta ei suuda täita A ja B alajao sätteid levitamisest hoidumise kohta või et seda võib põhjendatult eeldada, teatab ta sellest viivitamata sellele lepinguosalisele, keda levitamine tõenäoliselt mõjutab. Seejärel peavad asjaomased lepinguosalised sobivate meetmete võtmiseks teineteisega nõu. 324 ET Euroopa Liidu Teataja 11/26. kd Liide Ühise tehnoloogiahalduskava (ÜTHK) tunnusjooned ÜTHK on ühises teadustöös osalejate vahel sõlmitava lepingu osa, milles määratletakse nende õigused ja kohustused. Intellektuaalomandi õiguste suhtes sätestatakse ÜTHKs tavaliselt muu hulgas omandiline kuuluvus, kaitse, kasutajaõigused teadus- ja arendustööks, kasutamine ja levitamine, sealhulgas ühise avaldamise kord, külalisteadlaste õigused ja kohustused ning vaidluste lahendamise kord. ÜTHKs võib sätestada ka ühisest teadustööst tuleneva ja selle aluseks oleva intellektuaalomandi, avaldamata teabe avalikustamist käsitlevad eeskirjad, litsentsimise ja objektiivse vormi. 11/26. kd ET Euroopa Liidu Teataja 325 LÕPPAKT Täievolilised esindajad, kes esindavad: EUROOPA LIIDU NÕUKOGU ühelt poolt ja LÕUNA-AAFRIKA VABARIIKI teiselt poolt, kohtudes Euroopa Ühenduse ja Lõuna-Aafrika Vabariigi vahelise teadus- ja tehnikaalase koostöö lepingu allakirjutamise eesmärgil viiendal detsembril tuhande üheksasaja üheksakümne kuuendal aastal Brüsselis, on käesoleva lepingu allakirjutamisel vastu võtnud järgmise lepinguosaliste ühisdeklaratsiooni: Euroopa Ühenduse ja Lõuna-Aafrika vahelise teadus- ja tehnikaalase lepingu ühisdeklaratsioon.

Euroopa Ühendus ja Lõuna-Aafrika kinnitavad oma kohustust teha kõik tagamaks, et käesoleva lepingu raames välja töötatud tegevus mõjutaks soodsalt Lõuna-Aafrika piirkonda laiemalt, aidates niimoodi kaasa ühtsele ja säästvale majanduslikule ja sotsiaalsele arengule, nagu on kavandatud Euroopa Liidu – Lõuna-Aafrika Arenguühenduse deklaratsioonis, mis võeti vastu 1994. aasta septembris Berliinis toimunud ministrite konverentsil ja kinnitati 1996. aasta oktoobris Windhoekis toimunud ministrite konverentsi ajal. 11/26. kd ET Euroopa Liidu Teataja 327 Hecho en Bruselas, el cinco de diciembre de mil novecientos noventa y seis.
