text: C 134/134 DE Amtsblatt der Europa¤ischen Gemeinschaften 30. 4. 98 (98/C 134/179) SCHRIFTLICHE ANFRAGE E-3314/97 von Herbert Bo¤sch (PSE) an die Kommission (20. Oktober 1997) Betrifft: Einstufung von Beamten In den vergangenen Jahren haben sich die beiden Teile der Haushaltsbeho¤rde bemu¤ht, die Personalkosten zu stoppen. Umso verwunderlicher sind Berichte, denen zufolge der Rat in ju¤ngster Vergangenheit Beamte nach deren Concours ho¤hergestuft eingestellt hat. D. h. es konnte offenbar der Fall eintreten, da(cid:223) z. B. jemand mit einem A-7 Concours im Rat als A-5 eingestellt wurde. Im Falle eines anschlie(cid:223)enden Wechsels in die Kommission wurde er als A-5 u¤bernommen, wa¤hrend sein Kollege, der in der Kommission begann, immer noch in A-7 arbeitete. Ich stelle daher folgende Anfrage: 1. Sind Ihnen derartige Einstellungspraktiken bekannt? Halten Sie diese Praktiken vor dem Hintergrund einer koha¤renten Personalpolitik der EU-Institutionen fu¤r 2. vertretbar? 3. Was werden Sie zu deren Beseitigung unternehmen? Antwort von Herrn Liikanen im Namen der Kommission (4. Dezember 1997) Der Herr Abgeordnete fu¤hrt in seiner Anfrage den Fall eines Beamten an, der nach bestandenem A7/ 6-Auswahlverfahren in der Besoldungsgruppe A5 eingestellt wurde. Eine derartige Praxis ist der Kommission nicht bekannt. Sie wu¤rde ein derartiges Einstellungsverfahren in keinem Fall akzeptieren. Bewerber, die mit Erfolg an einem fu¤r eine bestimmte Laufbahn durchgefu¤hrten Auswahlverfahren teilgenommen haben, werden stets in der betreffenden Laufbahn eingestellt. Hingegen kann es › wie unla¤ngst bei den erweiterungsbedingten Auswahlverfahren fu¤r die Laufbahn A5/4 › vorkommen, da(cid:223) ein von einem Organ nach einem A7/6-Auswahlverfahren eingestellter Beamter die Voraussetzungen zur Teilnahme an einem von diesem oder einem anderen Organ veranstalteten A5/ 4-Auswahlverfahren erfu¤llt. So kann ein A7/6-Beamter durchaus die fu¤r dieses A5/4-Auswahlverfahren geforderte Berufserfahrung besitzen und rechtma¤(cid:223)ig zur Teilnahme zugelassen werden. Besteht er das Auswahlverfahren, kann er ebenso rechtma¤(cid:223)ig beantragen, da(cid:223) er bei seiner oder einer anderen Institution in der Laufbahn A5/4 eingestellt wird. Verfu¤gt eine Kommissionsdienststelle u¤ber einen Posten und mo¤chte sie diesen Posten mit dem betreffenden Bewerber besetzen, so kann die Verwaltung dies nicht ablehnen. Steht der Bewerber auf der Eignungsliste eines anderen Organs wird das der Verwaltung bekannte Verfahren der (cid:132)Ernennung-U¤ bernahme(cid:147) angewandt. Die Kommssion praktiziert dieses Verfahren indessen stets mit gro¤(cid:223)ter Umsicht. (98/C 134/180) SCHRIFTLICHE ANFRAGE E-3316/97 von Klaus Lukas (NI) an die Kommission (20. Oktober 1997) Betrifft: La¤nderstellungnahmen zur Osterweiterung Der Europa¤ische Rat von Kopenhagen hat die Kommission beauftragt, in ihren Stellungnahmen zu den Bewerberla¤ndern die Situation der ethnischen Minderheiten zu untersuchen. Nun hat es die Kommission fertig gebracht, auf mehr als 1. 400 Seiten kein einziges Wort u¤ber die Lage der deutschen bzw. deutschsprachigen Minderheiten in Polen, Tschechien, Ungarn, der Slowakei, Slowenien, Ruma¤nien und Litauen zu verlieren. Kann die Kommission als Ergebnis ihrer jahrelangen Recherchen pro genanntes Land jeweils die Gro¤(cid:223)e und den rechtlichen Status der deutschen Volksgruppen darstellen, einschlie(cid:223)lich der jeweiligen Ma(cid:223)nahmen des Minderheitenschutzes (parlamentarische Vertretung, lokale Selbstregierung, Recht auf Muttersprache im Amtsverkehr, eigene Schule, Zeitungen, elektronische Medien, zweisprachige Ortstafeln etc. )

Using the powers vested in it, the Commission will ensure that all the Member States comply with this obligation in order to protect the safety of European consumers. (1) OJ L 228, 11. 8. 1992. (2) OJ L 93, 17. 4. 1993. (98/C 134/161) WRITTEN QUESTION E-3244/97 by Alfonso Novo Belenguer (ARE) to the Commission (20 October 1997) Subject: Radioactive waste It has emerged that at the plutonium reprocessing plants of La Hague in France and Sellafield in Britain radioactive waste has been disposed of in the sea. It is estimated that 200 000 cubic metres of plutonium, a dangerous substance which remains active for 250 000 years, is dumped in the sea annually. The situation is so alarming that the French Government even banned bathing and fishing in the sea near the plant last June, in view of the threat to public health. Does the Commission know about the dumping of plutonium in the sea at La Hague and Sellafield? Has the Commission carried out any detailed study about the dumping to ascertain its legality and the environmental impact? Answer given by Mrs Bjerregaard on behalf of the Commission (19 November 1997) Both France and the United Kingdom have undertaken to respect the ban on the dumping of radioactive substances at sea as outlined in the 1992 Oslo-Paris (OSPAR) convention for the protection of the marine environment of the north-east Atlantic, which is in the process of replacing the two earlier conventions of Oslo and Paris respectively. That ban, however, concerns the dumping of wastes at sea and does not refer to the discharge of low-level liquid wastes from land-based installations which is controlled within strict authorisations issued by national authorities. In July 1996, under the terms of Article 35 of the Euratom Treaty, the Commission verified the environmental monitoring facilities established at and around the La Hague site. It was concluded that suitable arrangements were in place for monitoring levels of radioactivity in the environment. In respect of restrictions on access around the La Hague site, the Commission understands that legal restrictions on public access to a zone around the pipe outlet and within a corridor along the pipeline have been in place for many years. Earlier this year, those restrictions were extended briefly while the French government commissioned studies into levels of radioactivity around the La Hague nuclear reprocessing site. The report of those studies concludes that levels of activity discharged were within the limits set by the national authorities. Furthermore, it confirmed that levels of radioactivity in the environment led to doses to the most exposed members of the public which were well below the limits specified in the Community basic safety standards

(98/C 134/158) WRITTEN QUESTION E-3235/97 by Nikitas Kaklamanis (UPE) to the Commission (20 October 1997) Subject: Funding for third countries from EU programmes intended for Member States Although section III ((cid:145)internal policies(cid:146)) of the financial perspectives is intended to support measures in the EU Member States, regulations are continually being adopted to provide funding for third countries from programmes intended to meet the needs of EU Member States. This is despite the fact that section IV ((cid:145)third countries(cid:146)) is intended solely for countries outside the EU and is already providing generous funding for them. Can the Commission give the reasons for this situation and will it consider ways of limiting the diversion of funds towards countries outside the EU from programmes designed to cover the Union(cid:146)s own major needs? Answer given by Mr Liikanen on behalf of the Commission (1 December 1997) The Commission is collecting the information it needs to answer the question. It will communicate its findings as soon as possible. (98/C 134/159) WRITTEN QUESTION E-3241/97 by Alfonso Novo Belenguer (ARE) to the Commission (20 October 1997) Subject: Objective 1 regions On 16 July 1997 the European Commission published its (cid:145)Agenda 2000(cid:146), outlining the prospects for the European Union at the beginning of the next century. These prospects included a chapter devoted to the reform of the Structural Funds, in which the Commission envisages reducing the number of priority objectives from 7 to 3. It is proposed that after 1999 Objective 1 will apply strictly and invariably to the regions whose GDP is less than 75% the Community average. However, for the regions which are currently under Objective 1 and after 1999 will exceed 75% of Community GDP, there will be a transitional phase of support, i. e. a mechanism for gradually withdrawing the aid provided under Objective 1 of the Structural Funds. In view of this, can the Commission: 1. specify what exactly this gradual withdrawal mechanism will consist of; 2. if not, say when will it provide information about the mechanism?

Komission ja¤senen Mario Montin komission puolesta antama vastaus (18. marraskuuta 1997) Komissio on tehnyt jo useita ehdotuksia valmisteveroasioista. Niilla¤ olisi jo voitu saavuttaa sellainen yhdenmukaisuus, jota veroja¤rjestelma¤n saattaminen sisa¤markkinoiden tarpeita vastaavaksi edellytta¤a¤. Neuvosto on kuitenkin aina jonkin ehdotuksen hyva¤ksyessa¤a¤n tehnyt ensin huomattavia muutoksia. Ta¤sta¤ syysta¤ yhdenmukaistaminen ei ole viela¤ la¤heska¤a¤n tasolla, jolla sisa¤markkinoista saataisiin kaikki hyo¤ty. Na¤in ollen arvoisa parlamentinja¤sen varmaan ymma¤rta¤a¤, etta¤ vaikka komissio pita¤a¤kin valmisteverojen yhdenmukaistamista ensisijaisen ta¤rkea¤na¤, se ei voi taata, etta¤ nykytila muuttuisi ratkaisevasti la¤hitulevaisuu- dessa. (98/C 158/88) KIRJALLINEN KYSYMYS E-3239/97 komissiolle esitta¤ja¤(t): Bill Miller (PSE) (20. lokakuuta 1997) Aihe: Yhtena¤ismarkkinat Komissaari Monti on antanut ymma¤rta¤a¤, etta¤ EU:n rajojen sisa¤puolella matkustavat henkilo¤t menetta¤va¤t mahdollisuuden tehda¤ verovapaita ostoksia 1. heina¤kuuta 1999 ja¤lkeen osana yhteismarkkinoiden loppuun saattamista. Milloin ha¤nen mielesta¤a¤n voidaan pa¤a¤tta¤a¤ verotuksellinen syrjinta¤ valmisteverojen alalla, mika¤ myo¤s muodostaa osan yhtena¤ismarkkinoiden loppuun saattamisesta? Komission ja¤senen Mario Montin komission puolesta antama vastaus (18. marraskuuta 1997) Neuvosto teki pa¤a¤to¤ksen verottoman myynnin lopettamisesta jo vuonna 1991. Silloin annettiin kuitenkin myo¤s seitsema¤n ja puolen vuoden pituinen sopeutumisaika, jotta kaikki ne, joihin muutos vaikuttaa, voisivat joustavasti siirtya¤ uuteen tilanteeseen. Verosyrjinna¤n osalta on ensinna¤kin todettava, etta¤ ka¤sitteesta¤ on kovin monenlaisia tulkintoja. Yhteiso¤n oikeudessa se ma¤a¤ritella¤a¤n Euroopan yhteiso¤n perustamissopimuksen 95 artiklassa, jossa kielleta¤a¤n ja¤senvaltiota ma¤a¤ra¤a¤ma¤sta¤ muiden ja¤senvaltioiden tuotteille sellaisia maksuja, etta¤ sen omat tuotteet saavat siita¤ etua. Komissio puuttuu jokaiseen tietoonsa tulevaan verosyrjinta¤tapaukseen. Na¤in ollen oletan, etta¤ arvoisa parlamentinja¤sen tarkoittaa (cid:148)verosyrjinta¤a¤(cid:148) laajassa merkityksessa¤ ja viittaa silla¤ ja¤senvaltioittain ja tuoteryhmitta¤in ilmeneva¤a¤n verokantojen huomattavaan vaihteluun, jota edelleen esiintyy ja joka on ta¤ysin laillista. Ta¤ma¤ laaja hajonta johtuu nykyisesta¤ va¤himma¤isverokantoihin perustuvasta ja¤rjestel- ma¤sta¤. Komissio tutkii parhaillaan alkoholi- ja tupakkatuotteiden verotusta ja esitta¤a¤ neuvostolle ja Euroopan parlamentille asiasta kertomuksen ja toimenpide-ehdotukset, mika¤li sellaisiin ilmenee aihetta

Gecombineerd Antwoord op de schritftelijke vragen E-3292/97 en E-3293/97 van de heer Pinheiro namens de Commissie (1 december 1997) De Raad verzocht de Commissie in juni 1997 om het indienen van voorstellen die moeten leiden tot een gelijkwaardige behandeling van alle minstontwikkelde landen voor 1 januari 1998. De Commissie werkt actief aan deze voorstellen met inachtneming van de in de Overeenkomst van Lome· vervatte verplichtingen van de Gemeenschap en de bepalingen van het stelsel van algemene preferenties. In verband met de structurele verschillen tussen de handelsregelingen die de Gemeenschap toepast op de minstontwikkelde landen die partij zijn bij de Overeenkomst van Lome· enerzijds en de minstontwikkelde landen die geen partij zijn bij bedoelde overeenkomst en in aanmerking komen voor het stelsel van algemene preferenties, anderzijds bestaat er nog een aantal technische moeilijkheden waarvoor naar mogelijke oplossingen wordt gezocht. Zodra de oplossingen zijn gevonden, zal er zo snel mogelijk een voorstel bij de Raad worden ingediend. (98/C 158/103) SCHRIFTELIJKE VRAAG E-3294/97 van Wolfgang Kreissl-Do¤rfler (V) aan de Commissie (20 oktober 1997) Betreft: Handelsbeleid van de EU Welke in het Commissieverslag over het handelsbeleid aangesneden problemen moeten in het kader van de WHO in Gene‘ve worden besproken en heeft de Commissie een evaluatie verricht over in hoeverre haar handelsbeleid tot de schepping van arbeidsplaatsen bijdraagt en ook voor ongeschoolde arbeiders en vrouwen gelijke kansen waarborgt? Antwoord van Sir Leon Brittan namens de Commissie (1 december 1997) In Gene‘ve wordt in het kader van de Wereldhandelsorganisatie (WTO) een uitgebreid gamma onderwerpen op het gebied van de handelspolitiek besproken. De meeste overeenkomsten waarover tijdens de Uruguay-Ronde werd onderhandeld, omvatten herzieningsclausules of voorzien uitdrukkelijk in verdere onderhandelingen. Deze vormen de zogenaamde (cid:132)ingebouwde(cid:148) agenda. Aan de (cid:132)ingebouwde(cid:148) agenda werden door de Ministerie¤le Conferentie van de WTO in december 1996 zaken toegevoegd. De ministers hechtten hun goedkeuring aan een actieplan voor de minstontwikkelde landen en aan inleidende besprekingen over regionale handelspreferenties, doorzichtigheid van overheidsopdrachten, vereen- voudiging van handelsregels en -procedures, handel en investeringen en handel en concurrentie. De Commissie is er vast van overtuigd dat de gevestigde handelspolitiek van de Gemeenschap, zoals weerspiegeld in de goedkeuring van de resultaten van de Uruguay-Ronde en latere ministerie¤le besluiten, een krachtige bijdrage levert aan de schepping van arbeidsplaatsen in de Gemeenschap. De Commissie zet zich eveneens energiek in voor gelijke kansen voor ongeschoolde werknemers en vrouwen. In het kader van de Gemeenschap bestaat er over deze onderwerpen communautaire wetgeving.

text: COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES Brussels, 20. 10. 1997 COM(97) 532 final 95/0221 (COD) OPINION OF THE COMMISSION pursuant to Article 189 b (2) (d) of the EC Treaty, on the European Parliament's amendments to the Council's common position regarding the proposal for a EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND COUNCIL DIRECTIVE on common rules for the development of the internal market of Community postal services and the improvement of quality of service AMENDING THE PROPOSAL OF THE COMMISSION pursuant to Article 189 a (2) of the EC Treaty 1. BACKGROUND On 25 July 1995 the Commission adopted a proposal for a European Parliament and Council Directive on common rules for the development of Community postal services and the improvement of quality of service (COM (95) 227)'. The Economic and Social Committee gave its opinion on the Commission's proposal on 28 March 19962. The European Parliament gave its opinion on first reading on 9 May 1996, and proposed 58 amendments to the proposal3. The Committee of the Regions gave its opinion on the proposal on 13 June 19964. On 31 July 1996 the Commission adopted an amended proposal in conformity with Article 189a(2) of the Treaty, incorporating a number of the EP amendments5. The Council adopted its common position (EC No 25/97) on 29 April 19976, on which the Commission delivered its opinion on 6 May 19977. in the second reading, the European Parliament on 16 September 1997 proposed 5 amendments to the common position. 2. PURPOSE OF THE COMMISSION PROPOSAL This Directive aims to provide for a regulatory framework at Community level for the postal sector. It defines the minimum universal service to be provided throughout the Community to all citizens, wherever they are located, at affordable prices. In order to ensure the financial viability of the universal service, the Directive defines harmonised criteria for the services which may be reserved to the universal service providers, to the extent necessary 1 OJC322of2. 12. 95,p. 22. 2 CES 419/96. 3 OJC 152 of 27. 5. 96, p. 20. 4 CdR 422/95 5 COM(96) 412, 31. 07. 96 6 OJC 188 of 19. 6. 97, p. 9 7 SEC(97) 821 final for the maintenance of the universal service, whilst also providing for a gradual and controlled opening up of the postal market to more competition. The Directive also provides for the establishment of quality of service standards for universal service, in relation to both national postal services and intra-Community cross- border services, as well as for the development of harmonised technical standards. Furthermore, the proposed Directive sets out common principles for tariff setting and accounting by universal service providers, as well as for national authorisation schemes, and requires separation between regulatory powers and operational functions. 3. OPINION OF THE COMMISSION ON THE AMENDMENTS OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT All five of the amendments adopted by the European Parliament in second reading can be accepted by the Commission. o Amendment 1 changes the drafting of recital (27) on the issue of terminal dues, and provides useful clarification. © Amendment 2 deletes from Article 3(3) the provision for specific derogations (at the discretion of the national regulatory authorities) from the door-to-door delivery requirements of the universal service. It also requires that the exceptions from the universal service requirements of Article 3, third paragraph ("in circumstances or geographical conditions deemed exceptional by the national regulatory authorities") must be communicated to the Commission and to all national regulatory authorities. It therefore improves transparency and accountability. • Amendment 3 provides for a wider notification to the Commission of the steps taken by each Member State to comply with its obligation to ensure that the universal service is guaranteed, thus providing greater clarity and transparency. The two consequential technical modifications to Article 2(13) and 5(1) which flow from this Amendment, and which are referred to in the footnote to it, are also included in the Commission's modified proposal to ensure consistency and avoid duplication. • Amendment 4 specifies in Article 7(1) that exceptions to the weight and price limits for the reserved sector set out in that paragraph may be permitted in the case of the free postal service for blind and partially sighted persons. This makes it clear that the existing arrangements in Member States governing this service can be maintained. • Amendment 5, concerning the right of universal service providers to negotiate individual agreements with customers, makes explicit in the substantive text of Article 12 the principle already referred to in recital (15), and is therefore acceptable. 4. MODIFIED PROPOSAL On 6 May 1997 the Commission adopted its opinion on the common position concerning a Directive of the European Parliament and the Council on common rules for the development of the internal market of Community postai services and the improvement of quality of service, by which it accepted the revised text for the proposed Directive. Following the second reading of the draft Directive by the European Parliament, the Commission hereby modifies its proposal for a Directive to incorporate the five amendments adopted by the European Parliament on 16 September 1997. In addition to these five amendments, the Commission's modified proposal also includes the two technical adjustments (to Article 2(13) and Article 5(1)) referred to in the footnote to Amendment 3 in the Recommendation for Second Reading, the texts of which were presented by the European Parliament's rapporteur in the debate in the Parliament's plenary session on 15 September 1997.

text: 30. 4. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 134/131 Answer given by Mr Liikanen on behalf of the Commission (27 November 1997) The competition to which the Honourable Member refers was brought to a close in June 1997 and the names of 148 successful candidates were placed on the reserve list. The data released on the various stages of the competition have been set out in a table which is being sent direct to the Honourable Member and to Parliament’s Secretariat. (98/C 134/174) WRITTEN QUESTION E-3289/97 by Wolfgang Kreissl-Do¤rfler (V) to the Commission (20 October 1997) Subject: OECD negotiations on the Multilateral Investment Agreement (MIA) In its communication (cid:145)A level playing field for direct investment world-wide(cid:146) (COM(95) 0042 › C4-0118/95) the Commission deals with the specific concerns of the developing countries in connection with Foreign Direct Investment: (cid:145)These countries have a special interest that FDI contributes to human resource development and that MNE accept a social responsibility when acting in the host country. They in particular want to avoid that FDI inflows are motivated by low environmental or social standards, or that these standards are even lowered further to attract FDI. The Community should therefore accept discussing complementary safeguards, such as codes of conducts for good corporate citizenship for MNEs, to meet these concerns as an accompanying element to the general principles assuring the free flow and the protection of investments(cid:146). What steps has the Commission taken to guarantee respect for social, economic and ecological standards by the MNE? What stage has the discussion reached on the introduction of codes of conducts for MNE? Answer given by Sir Leon Brittan on behalf of the Commission (13 November 1997) The Commission continues to believe that a lowering of environmental or social standards in order to attract foreign direct investment (FDI) should be avoided, and not only in developing countries. The Commission therefore is in favour of a corresponding provision, which is currently discussed in the multilateral investment agreement (MIA) negotiations. The Commission also supports proposals to incorporate the Organisation for economic co-operation and development (OECD) guidelines for multinational enterprises into the MIA. Finally, the Commission would like to point out that there is little evidence of FDI flows to third countries with a view to benefit from lower environmental or social standards, or that such standards have been lowered in order to attract foreign investment. (98/C 134/175) WRITTEN QUESTION E-3290/97 by Wolfgang Kreissl-Do¤rfler (V) to the Commission (20 October 1997) Subject: OECD negotiations on the Multilateral Investment Agreement (MIA) In the Council guidelines for the OECD negotiations on the Multilateral Investment Agreement (MIA) of 27 November 1995 it is stated that (cid:145)During the negotiations it has to be ensured that interested non-OECD countries are informed and consulted(cid:146). Have consultations taken place between the Commission and the ACP countries on the implications and effects of the MIA on these countries? What stage have the negotiations on the MIA reached in the OECD?

(98/C 158/107) PREGUNTA ESCRITA E-3305/97 de Raymonde Dury (PSE) a la Comisio·n (20 de octubre de 1997) Asunto: Accidentes de tra·fico en Be·lgica ¿Podr(cid:14)·a proporcionarme la Comisio·n, a partir de los datos de que dispone, el nu·mero de personas que han muerto o han resultado heridas en accidentes de tra·fico en Be·lgica en los u·ltimos an(cid:152)os? ¿Podr(cid:14)·a indicarme la Comisio·n que· porcentaje de muertes por millones de automo·viles representan estos datos en Be·lgica y en comparacio·n con el conjunto de la situacio·n en la Unio·n Europea? Respuesta comu· n a las preguntas escritas E-3304/97 y E-3305/97 dada por el Sr. Kinnock en nombre de la Comisio·n (15 de diciembre de 1997) En 1994, los accidentes de tra·fico en Be·lgica arrojaron un balance de 1. 543 muertos y 73. 338 heridos. Sobre la base del nu·mero de muertos por cada millo·n de habitantes durante el per(cid:14)·odo 1991-1994, la situacio·n de Be·lgica es peor que la media comunitaria, por debajo de otros siete Estados miembros. Sin embargo, es dif(cid:14)·cil establecer comparaciones precisas entre Estados miembros, dado que determinados factores, como la calidad de la infraestructura, no son comparables. La Comisio·n ha calculado que el coste directo de los accidentes de tra·fico (incluido el coste de los servicios policial y me·dico de urgencia, las reparaciones de veh(cid:14)·culos y las pe·rdidas de produccio·n) es de 45. 000 millones de ecus anuales para el conjunto de la Comunidad. Si se divide por el total anual de accidentes mortales de carretera en la Comunidad: 45. 000, se obtiene una media aritme·tica de un millo·n de ecus por muerte. La Comisio·n ha adoptado la Comunicacio·n «Promocio·n de la seguridad vial en la Unio·n Europea: programa para 1997-2001» (1), en la que se perfilan los planes de la Comisio·n sobre la base de los resultados del primer programa de accio·n correspondiente al per(cid:14)·odo 1993-1996. Las medidas de la Comisio·n se centrara·n en tres a·mbitos: recogida y difusio·n de la informacio·n para determinar y supervisar la situacio·n; puesta en marcha y apoyo de medidas destinadas a la prevencio·n de accidentes, con especial e·nfasis en el factor humano y en su interaccio·n con el entorno; y puesta en marcha y apoyo de medidas para reducir las consecuencias de los accidentes cuando se produzcan. La Comisio·n cree que la aplicacio·n de las medidas propuestas en el programa de accio·n podr(cid:14)·a reducir en 18. 000 el nu·mero anual de accidentes mortales en el horizonte del an(cid:152)o 2010.

text: 30. 4. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 134/137 Answer given by Mr Oreja on behalf of the Commission (27 November 1997) Subtitling of television programmes, in some Member States, is the standard method for translating foreign language programmes to the domestic language. Subtitling also serves as the principal means to adapt programmes for the deaf. Among the incentives established by the MEDIA II programme is a support scheme in the form of loans for the transnational distribution of audiovisual programmes including television programmes. As a general rule, however the costs of dubbing and subtitling are not repayable. Thus, although Council Decision 95/563/EC of 10 July 1995 on the implementation of a programme encouraging the development and distribution of European audiovisual works (MEDIA II › Development and distribution) (1996-2000) (1) does not provide expressly any objectives towards supporting adaptation of programmes for the deaf, the programme does, through its incentives for increasing transnational distribution of television programmes, contribute indirectly to an increase in programmes adapted for this group. (1) OJ L 321, 30. 12. 1995. (98/C 134/183) WRITTEN QUESTION E-3322/97 by Esko Seppa¤nen (GUE/NGL) to the Commission (20 October 1997) Subject: Threat posed to the unique natural salmon stock in the Teno-joki (Tana) river by the Norwegians(cid:146) proposals for salmon farms The Norwegian State has granted licences, against the recommendations of the regional environmental authorities and the Finnish-Norwegian border waters commission, for the rearing of significant quantities of salmon in bag-shaped enclosures in the Tana Fjord. By permitting the rearing of salmon in such enclosures in the Tana Fjord the Norwegian State has shown great irresponsibility. The farming of salmon in these enclosures in the Tana Fjord increases the risk of spreading salmon diseases and impairing the quality of the genome of the naturally occurring Teno-joki salmon. The destruction of the natural salmon stock would have incalculable consequences for the whole of the Teno-joki valley. What measures does the Commission propose taking to prevent the environmental risk posed by Norwegian salmon › whose market share is after all the largest in the EU › to the valley of the Teno-joki flowing into the Tana Fjord? Answer given by Mrs Bonino on behalf of the Commission (27 November 1997) The Commission would refer the Honourable Member to its answer to Written Question P-2907/97 by Mrs Hautala (1).

The reason is that the pipes are allegedly dangerous because their lead content exceeds normal limits. Can the Commission:

text: C 187/6 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 16. 6. 98 (98/C 187/07) WRITTEN QUESTION E-3300/97 by Angela Sierra Gonza·lez (GUE/NGL) to the Commission (20 October 1997) Subject: UK import limits on products originating in the Canaries The British Government(cid:146)s Medicines Control Agency has informed that country(cid:146)s importers that the Canary Islands do not belong to the European Union. For that reason, a series of measures have been established in the UK limiting parallel imports of pharmaceutical products from the Islands. This outrageous state of affairs constitutes an assault on the Canary Islands community(cid:146)s exercise of Community freedoms within the European Union, and any other EU territories. Is the Commission aware of the facts in question? What measures does the Commission intend to take with regard to this infringement of the principle of freedom of movement of goods between territories which belong to the EU on an equal footing? Answer given by Mr Monti on behalf of the Commission (15 January 1998) Before the facts referred to by the Honourable Member can be assessed, it is necessary to know the reasons why the Medicines Control Agency refused to allow parallel imports of pharmaceutical specialities from another Member State to be marketed in the United Kingdom. If the Agency(cid:146)s refusal is based on tax considerations, the Commission would refer the Honourable Member to the answer given to Written Question E-1956/93 by Mr Sanchez Garcia (1). If the reasons given do not relate to tax and given that the Canary Islands form part of the customs territory of the Community, a refusal by the United Kingdom authorities to allow imports of pharmaceutical products might be regarded as an obstacle to intra-Community trade that is in breach of Article 30 of the EC Treaty. Before looking into the matter more closely, the Commission would like to have more detailed information regarding the reasons for the refusal. It would therefore ask the Honourable Member to contact it in order to clarify the situation. (1) OJ C 219, 8. 8. 1994. (98/C 187/08) WRITTEN QUESTION P-3353/97 by Caroline Jackson (PPE) to the Commission (15 October 1997) Subject: Amsterdam Treaty: Declaration on the quality of the drafting of EU legislation 1. What action does the Commission propose to take to lay down guidelines on the quality of drafting of Community legislation, as it was invited to do by the European Council meeting in Amsterdam? 2. What appropriate organizational measures does the Commission plan to take to ensure that the guidelines are applied? 3. Will its priorities include a review of staff training, the allocation of specific responsibilities to staff in each section to monitor output for plain language, and an examination of the work of the Commission(cid:146)s legal service? 4. When does the Commission expect to complete its initiatives on the quality of drafting of Community legislation, and will it produce a report for the Council and European Parliament on the outcome?

(98/C 117/229) INTERROGAZIONE SCRITTA E-3270/97 di Mar(cid:14)·a Estevan Bolea (PPE) alla Commissione (20 ottobre 1997) Oggetto: Gestione di oli usati nei cementifici Possono i cementifici bruciare gli oli usati come se si trattasse di un semplice combustibile, senza disporre dell(cid:146)autorizzazione per la gestione degli oli usati? Risposta data dalla sig. ra Bjerregaard a nome della Commissione (10 novembre 1997) I cementifici che eliminano gli oli usati non possono farlo senza un’autorizzazione preventiva. In base all’articolo 6 della direttiva 75/439/CEE del 16 giugno 1975 modificata dalla direttiva 87/101/CEE del 22 dicembre 1986 che modifica la direttiva 75/439/CEE concernente l(cid:146)eliminazione degli oli usati (1), le imprese che eliminano gli oli usati devono ottenere un’autorizzazione. Ove necessario, questa autorizzazione e‘ concessa previo esame degli impianti. Gli Stati membri hanno dovuto far adottare le misure applicabili alle imprese esistenti al momento della notifica della direttiva 87/101/CEE entro sette anni a decorrere da tale data e cioe‘ il 13 gennaio 1994. Per quanto attiene alle nuove imprese, le misure devono essere applicate sin dall’avvio dei loro impianti. (1) GU L 42 del 12. 2. 1987.

text: C 187/6 ES Diario Oficial de las Comunidades Europeas 16. 6. 98 (98/C 187/07) PREGUNTA ESCRITA E-3300/97 de Angela Sierra Gonza·lez (GUE/NGL) a la Comisio·n (20 de octubre de 1997) Asunto: Limitaciones de importacio·n de productos con origen en Canarias en el Reino Unido La «Medicines Control Agency» del Gobierno de Gran Bretan(cid:152)a ha comunicado a los titulares de importacio·n de ese pa(cid:14)·s que el Archipie·lago canario no pertenece a la Unio·n Europea. Por esta razo·n, se han establecido en ese pa(cid:14)·s una serie de medidas que limitan la importacio·n paralela de productos farmace·uticos procedentes de las islas. Estos hechos, en todo punto inadmisibles, suponen un agravio para el ejercicio de las libertades comunitarias en el seno de la Unio·n Europea que puede realizar la comunidad canaria, as(cid:14)· como cualesquiera otros territorios de la UE. ¿Tiene la Comisio·n Europea conocimiento de los hechos descritos? ¿Que· medidas piensa tomar la Comisio·n ante la vulneracio·n del principio de libertad de circulacio·n de mercanc(cid:14)·as entre territorios pertenecientes por igual a la UE?

Si las razones de la negativa no son fiscales, y dado que las Islas Canarias forman parte del territorio aduanero de la Comunidad, el hecho de que las autoridades brita·nicas se nieguen a admitir productos farmace·uticos podr(cid:14)·a considerarse un obsta·culo al comercio intracomunitario contrario al art(cid:14)·culo 30 del Tratado CE. A fin de estar en condiciones de verificarla, la Comisio·n desea disponer de elementos ma·s precisos sobre los motivos de esta negativa, por lo que invita a Su Sen(cid:152)or(cid:14)·a a ponerse en contacto con ella para aclarar el problema.
