text: C 386/68 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 11. 12. 98 (98/C 386/087) WRITTEN QUESTION E-0983/98 by Eryl McNally (PSE) to the Commission (2 April 1998) Subject: Jubilee 2000 › a debt-free start for a billion people One of my constituents has enquired about Europe(cid:146)s position on supporting the campaign to make a one-off cancellation by the year 2000 of the backlog of unpayable debt owed by the world(cid:146)s poorest countries. This is a campaign known as Jubilee 2000. In the light of the above, what commitment, if any, does the Commission feel Europe should make to assist such humanitarian initiatives? Answer given by Mr Pinheiro on behalf of the Commission (25 May 1998) The Commission shares the concerns of the Jubilee 2000 campaign regarding debt problems in the poorest countries. It has been increasingly recognised that despite progress made during recent years in providing more generous debt relief measures and despite their efforts to implement economic reforms, a number of poor countries are still constrained by excessive external debt burdens. It should be noted that the Community is primarily a donor of grant resources and a very small creditor in this context. Solutions to the debt problems of the poorest countries will require concerted action among all creditors in order to have the necessary impact. The debt initiative for the heavily indebted poor countries (the HIPC debt initiative) which was launched in 1996, is a framework for such co-ordinated action. The aim of this initiative is to reduce the debt burdens of the heavily indebted poor countries to sustainable levels and thereby to support their efforts to implement economic reforms and to reduce poverty. The Commission strongly welcomes this initiative and is politically very committed to participating and playing its part in it. The Council confirmed, on 12 February 1998, the principle of such participation with respect to Community claims on HIPCs. It is now on the verge of adopting the legal basis for it. A formal proposal for a Council decision was transmitted by the Commission to the Council, which, when adopted, will allow for an actual prepayment of some Community claims on HIPCs. It is to be noted that the Community decided to participate both as a creditor and as a donor in addressing the debt problems of poor indebted countries. It decided to reallocate the breakdown of the structural adjustment facility (SAF) allocation and to increase by 10 to 15 % the amount devoted to countries qualifying for the HIPC initiative. By doing so, the Commission created a link between HIPC qualification and enhanced support to social programmes implemented in the recipient countries (counterpart funds created by Community(cid:146)s structural adjustment programmes are generally devoted to social sector spending). The HIPC initiative and the above-mentioned SAF reallocation are clearly in the spirit of the Jubilee 2000 campaign. It may be less far-reaching, but is also realistic, being based on an agreement by governments and multilateral creditors to take action in a concerted way to help countries making serious development efforts

Objective of the proposal The objective of this proposal is to introduce into Council Directive 74/60/EEC1, as last amended by Commission Directive 78/632/EC2, requirements concerning power-operated windows with the aim of eliminating the danger to children, which can occur when closing these windows; something similar applies to power-operated roof panel systems and partition systems. Furthermore, it is proposed to align the administrative provisions of Directive 74/60/EEC with those of the EC type-approval Directive 70/156/EEC so that type-approval may be computerized. B. Legal basis The measures are proposed on the basis of Article 100a of the EC Treaty, The text is relevant for the EEA Treaty. C. Background It is expedient to introduce into Council Directive 74/60/EEC requirements concerning power-operated windows with the aim of eliminating the danger to children, which can occur when closing these windows. Something similar applies to power-operated roof panel systems and partition systems. For this purpose the title and the scope of Directive 74/60/EEC have to be modified accordingly. is one of the separate directives of the EC Directive 74/60/EEC type-approval procedure which has been established by Council Directive 70/156/EEC on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the type-approval of motor vehicles and their trailers3, as last amended by Directive 97/27/EC4. Articles 3(4) and 4(3) of Directive 70/156/EEC necessitate that each separate Directive has attached to it an information document items of Annex I to Directive 70/156/EEC and also a type-approval certificate based on Annex VI to Directive 70/156/EEC in order that type-approval may be computerized. incorporating the relevant Article 1 of Directive 74/60/EEC lays down that Directive 74/60/EEC applies only to vehicles of category Mj5 (passenger cars). It appears necessary future Directive 74/60/EEC will also contain provisions for vehicles other than category M,. For this purpose Article 1 of Directive 74/60/EEC should be modified so that technical specifications for vehicles other than category M, can be introduced into Directive 74/60/EEC in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 13 of Directive 70/156/EEC. Therefore, amend Article 1 of Directive 74/60/EEC in this respect. is proposed later that in to it 1 2 3 4 5 OJL 38, 11. 2. 1974, p. 2. OJL 206, 29. 7. 1978, p. 26. OJL 42, 23. 2. 1970, p. 1. OJ L 233, 25. 8. 1997, p. 1. As defined in Annex II, Section A, to Directive 70/156/EEC. Given the scale and impact of the action proposed in the sector in question, the Community measures which are the subject of this proposal are necessary, or even indispensable, to attain the objective set, namely Community vehicle type-approval. This objective cannot be adequately achieved by the Member States individually. D. Content of the proposal In the light of the explanations given above the Commission proposes to introduce into Directive 74/60/EEC requirements concerning power-operated windows, roof panel systems and partition systems for vehicles of category Mj (passenger cars). It is proposed that these new provisions should apply: from 1 October 1999 for all new vehicle types, from 1 October 2000 for all new vehicles. Furthermore it is proposed to modify the title and the scope of Directive 74/60/EEC accordingly, to align the administrative provisions of Directive 74/60/EEC with those to amend Article 1 of of the EC Directive 74/60/EEC. type-approval Directive 70/156/EEC and Proposal for a EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND COUNCIL DIRECTIVE amending Council Directive 74/60/EEC on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the interior fittings of motor vehicles (interior parts of the passenger compartment other than the interior rear-view mirrors, layout of controls, the roof or opening roof, the backrest and rear part of the seats) (Text with EEA relevance) THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 100a thereof, Having regard to the proposal from the Commission6, Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee7, Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 189b of the Treaty8, (1) Whereas, it is expedient to introduce into Council Directive 74/60/EEO\ as amended by Commission Directive 78/632/EC10, requirements concerning power-operated windows with the aim of eliminating the danger to children, which can occur when closing these windows; whereas similar requirements should apply to power-operated roof panel systems and partition systems; whereas for this purpose the scope of Directive 74/60/EEC should be amended accordingly; title and the (2) Whereas Directive 74/60/EEC the separate directives of the is one of EC type-approval procedure established by Council Directive 70/156/EEC of 6 February 1970 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the type-approval of motor vehicles and their trailers11, as last amended by European Parliament and Council Directive 97/27/EC12; whereas, consequently, the provisions laid down in Directive 70/156/EEC relating to vehicles, vehicle systems, components and separate technical units apply to this Directive; 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 Opinion of the European Parliament of 20 September 1995 (OJ C 269, 16. 10. 1995, p. 82), common position of the Council of 22 December 1995 (OJ C 37, 9. 2. 1996, p. 23) and Decision of the European Parliament of 9 May 1996 (OJ C 152, 27. 5. 1996, p. 44).

Dans son avis rendu pour la Commission des budgets, la commission de la politique r~gionale du Parlement europ~en a, une nouvelle fois, soulign~ l’importance des instruments CECA pour les bassins charbonniers et sid~rurgiques ainsi que pour les industries et leurs travailleurs. Elle demande d’assurer en substance et de mani(cid:127)re appropri~e le maintien des mesures actuelles apr(cid:127)s l’expiration du trait~, notamment le d~gagement de personnel exc~dentaire, la formation/adaptation, la r~g~n~ration, la sant~ et l’hygi(cid:127)ne et les mesures socio(cid:220)~conomiques. Les fonds structurels rev(cid:240)tent { cet ~gard une importance particuli(cid:127)re et { cette fin, dans le cadre du phasing(cid:220)in, l’adaptation/l’extension cibl~es des mesures de finan(cid:220) cement et des objectifs s’imposent. fonds Les r~gions qui apr(cid:127)s 1999 sortiront du champ d’aides des structurels europ~ens devront n~cessairement b~n~ficier d’aides transitoires sur une p~riode suffisante pour stabiliser les succ(cid:127)s obtenus en mati(cid:127)re de restructuration. C’est dans ce sens que le Comit~ demande tout d’abord une prorogation de la garantie des initiatives communautaires Rechar II et Resider II, qui couvrent l’essentiel des besoins financiers des cellules d’emploi de la main(cid:220)d’§uvre exc~dentaire, ainsi qu’un rel(cid:127)vement sensible des fonds jusqu’en 1999. l’~largissement de F. En outre, il conviendra de contribuer { la r~solution des probl(cid:127)mes d’adaptation des pays d’Europe centrale et orientale dont l’adh~sion { l’Union euro(cid:220) p~enne est pr~vue { terme. Le Comit~ consultatif consid(cid:127)re l’Union europ~enne comme une chance au niveau politique non seule(cid:220) ment pour les pays d~sirant adh~rer, mais aussi pour l’Europe tout enti(cid:127)re. Toutefois, le processus de l’adh~sion { l’Union europ~enne doit obligatoirement s’accompagner d’importantes mesures de pr~paration. Ces derni(cid:127)res auront pour objectif l’accroissement de la comp~titivit~ ~conomique du secteur par l’interm~(cid:220) diaire d’une restructuration efficace, le respect de la l~gislation en mati(cid:127)re de concurrence, la r~organisa(cid:220) tion des partenariats sociaux des r~gions, l’assainisse(cid:220) ment des infrastructures et le renforcement de la protection de l’environnement. Le Comit~ consultatif s’est d~clar~ dispos~ { apporter son aide aux r~gions mini(cid:127)res et sid~rurgiques de orientale dans l’ex~cution de ces t|ches difficiles. l’Europe centrale et G. Pour ~valuer l’efficacit~ hautement prouv~e des initiatives communautaires Rechar et Resider compte tenu notamment de l’aspect politique (du fait de l’int~gration de communes, r~gions, partenaires industriels et sociaux), il est indispensable de pour(cid:220) suivre et de d~velopper ce type d’initiatives commu(cid:220) nautaires. Conform~ment aux conclusions de la conf~rence CASTer et de la RETI (Association des r~gions europ~ennes de tradition industrielle), une initiative communautaire doit (cid:240)tre mise en place apr(cid:127)s 1999 pour favoriser la mutation industrielle dans les r~gions charbonni(cid:127)res et sid~rurgiques. Cette initiative communautaire devrait accompagner la mutation sectorielle dans ses effets sur les r~gions, les acteurs ~conomiques et les travailleurs touch~s. H. (cid:217)Tous ces points de vue devraient (cid:240)tre pris en compte lors de la discussion sur la r~forme des fonds structu(cid:220) rels europ~ens qui est de toute fa(cid:136)on n~cessaire pour d’autres raisons. Dans les conclusions de la pr~si(cid:220) dence de la r~union extraordinaire du Conseil euro(cid:220) p~en sur les 20 et 21 novembre 1997 { Luxembourg, cet aspect est abord~ et d~fendu en particulier aux points 27 et 28. les questions de l’emploi l’adaptation de I.
