Accordingly, soya oils and maize oils, produced other than by cold pressing, and ingredients derived from these products and products produced from hydrolyzed maize starch shall not be subject to the specific labelling requirements. In view of the rapid progress being made in testing and analysis techni- ques, this list shall be subject to technical adaptation according to the procedure laid down in Article 17 of Council Directive 79/112/EEC. (Amendment 7) Article 2(3)(a) (a) Where the food consists of more than one ingredient, the words (cid:145)produced from genetically modified soya(cid:146) or (cid:145)produced from genetically modified maize(cid:146), as appro- priate, shall appear in the list of ingredients, provided for by Article 6 of Directive 79/112/EEC in parentheses immediately after the name of the ingredient concerned. Alternatively, these words may appear in a prominently displayed footnote to the list of ingredients which has a typeface of at least the same size as the list of ingredients itself. (a) Where the food consists of more than one ingredient, the words (cid:145)produced from genetically modified soya(cid:146) or (cid:145)produced from genetically modified maize(cid:146), as appro- priate, shall appear in the list of ingredients, provided for by Article 6 of Directive 79/112/EEC in parentheses immediately after the name of the ingredient concerned. Alternatively, these words may appear in a prominently displayed footnote to the list of ingredients which has a typeface of at least the same size as the list of ingredients itself. Where an ingredient is already listed as being produced from soya or maize the words (cid:145)produced from genetically modified(cid:146) may be abbreviated to (cid:145)genetically modified(cid:146); if the abbreviated form of words is used as a footnote it must be related by means of an asterisk (*) to the ingredient concerned, the asterisk being directly attached to the word (cid:145)soya(cid:146) or (cid:145)maize(cid:146). (Amendment 8) Article 2(3)(c) (c) Where in accordance with the provisions of the first indent of sub paragraph (b) of paragraph 5 of Article 6 of Directive 79/112/EEC an ingredient is designated by the name of a category, that designation shall be completed by the words (cid:145)contains(cid:146) or (cid:145)may contain [ingredients] pro- duced from genetically modified soya/genetically modif- ied maize(cid:146), as appropriate. (c) Where in accordance with the provisions of the first indent of sub paragraph (b) of paragraph 5 of Article 6 of Directive 79/112/EEC an ingredient is designated by the name of a category, that designation shall be completed by the words (cid:145)contains [ingredients] produced from geneti- cally modified soya/genetically modified maize(cid:146), as appropriate. 1. 6. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 167/189 Thursday 14 May 1998 TEXT PROPOSED BY THE COMMISSION AMENDMENTS BY PARLIAMENT (Amendment 9) Article 2(3)(e) (e) By way of exception, where the presence in foods and food ingredients, of genetically modified produce subject to the labelling provisions of points (a) or (d), cannot be excluded but where no evidence of it is available, the use of the terms (cid:145)may contain(cid:146) or (cid:145)may have been produced from(cid:146) shall be considered to fulfill the requirements of those points. Deleted (Amendment 10) Article 2a (new) Article 2a The Commission shall call upon the Scientific Committee for Food to examine, before 31 December 1998, the practicality of setting a de minimis threshold for modified protein or DNA, below which a product would be consi- dered to be unmodified and, if necessary, forward adequate proposals.

E. whereas the new financial perspective must take account of the provisions of the Amsterdam Treaty (Article J. 18), which stipulate that operating expenditure arising under the second pillar must be met from the Community budget, with the exception of expenditure arising from operations with military implications or operations in the defence sphere, F. whereas the 50th anniversary of the Brussels Treaty, when any member state wishing to do so may withdraw from the WEU subject to one year(cid:146)s notice, provides an opportunity to consider that organization(cid:146)s future and, thereby, the development of closer relations between the European Union and the WEU with a view to the latter(cid:146)s future integration into the Union and the advisability of amending the Treaty with a view to bringing its requirements into line with the current political and strategic situation and the ability of the WEU to meet those requirements, G. whereas the WEU, being an integral part of the development of the European Union, should serve as an important element of the European security and defence identity within the Atlantic Alliance, H. whereas the CFSP is based on different components: traditional diplomatic foreign policy, development aid, trade, peace and conflict resolution, disarmament policy and military defence policy; therefore, noting that a common defence policy is one of the means to help ensure the security of the EU Member States and their citizens and to conduct a more effective foreign policy, (1) See Notice to members PE 223. 515. (2) See Notice to members PE 224. 934. C 167/192 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 1. 6. 98 Thursday 14 May 1998 I. whereas all the EU Member States are not yet ready to work towards a common defence policy comprising a mutual assistance clause such as that contained in the WEU and NATO Treaties, and that the European Union, by agreeing to include in the Amsterdam Treaty the Petersberg tasks, in which all Member States are entitled to take part, has created the condition for peace keeping and for intervention in crisis situations, J. whereas the European Union should therefore establish a European civilian corps to carry out peacekeeping and peacemaking tasks, K. whereas the revised Article J. 7 of the Treaty on European Union and its protocol stipulate that the defence policy of the Union (cid:145)shall not prejudice the specific character of the security and defence policy of certain Member States(cid:146) and that (cid:145)the European Union shall draw up, together with the Western European Union, arrangements for enhanced cooperation between them(cid:146), L. whereas, if the WEU Treaty is eventually incorporated into the European Union, the security guarantees between the EU countries which are members of the WEU which are enshrined in that Treaty should not be weakened, M. whereas the European Union in a most important way contributes to security and peaceful developments in Europe as applicant states must take into account that respect for human rights within their borders and the pursuit of harmonious relationships with neighbouring countries are pre-conditions for membership in the European Union, N. whereas the development of the security and defence policy of the European Union should be based on the principle that the EU must be able, in special circumstances, to act independently in defence of its interests and values, taking into consideration the conditions and obligations stemming from membership of the North Atlantic Treaty by certain Member States, as laid down in Article J. 7(1) of the Amsterdam Treaty, 1. Affirms that the purpose of a common security and defence policy is: › to safeguard the common values, fundamental interests, independence and integrity of the Union in conformity with the principles of the United Nations Charter; › to strengthen the security of the Union in all ways; › to preserve peace and strengthen international security, in accordance with the principles of the United Nations Charter, as well as the principles of the Helsinki Final Act and the objectives of the Paris Charter, including those on external borders; Confirms that crisis prevention is an integral part of the development and setting up of a common 2. security and defence policy; 3. Affirms, furthermore, that the purpose of a common defence policy is to protect the European Union(cid:146)s interests in all areas, including security of essential supplies, when diplomatic instruments are no longer sufficient; 4. Considers, lastly, that under a common defence policy the European Union will be able to contribute to peace and stability in the world, primarily in the areas located on its land and sea borders, under a mandate issued by the UN or the OSCE; 5. Points out that, under the terms of Articles 51 and 52 of the United Nations Charter, an organization such as the European Union has a right of individual and collective self-defence and on that basis is entitled gradually to establish a common defence policy; Confirms that the creation and the safeguarding of peaceful and cooperative relations not only with 6. neighbouring states but also within a global context is also a basis of defence policy; 7. Considers that a clear distinction should be made between security and defence, with the concept of security covering Petersberg operations and the concept of defence including territorial defence and the protection of the vital interests of the Member States; advocates close cooperation within the CJTF (Combined Joint Task Forces) framework based on Atlantic Alliance infrastructures and resources; 1. 6. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 167/193 Thursday 14 May 1998 8. Confirms that, until the WEU is integrated into the European Union, the territorial integrity of the Member States will continue to be protected under alliances to which some Member States are parties, but points out that the Amsterdam Treaty established the principles of the (cid:145)integrity of the Union(cid:146) and (cid:145)mutual political solidarity(cid:146) and made reference to the (cid:145)external borders(cid:146) of the Union, and that these concepts must be further developed with the deepening of European integration and the enlargement of the European Union, with a view to convergence between the two organizations; Notes that the security of most EU Member States is currently dependent on their membership of 9. NATO; points out, however, that the future enlargement of the European Union to take in Central and Eastern European countries and Cyprus will not necessarily coincide with a corresponding enlargement of NATO, in view of the decisions taken at the Madrid summit, and that, as the European Union grows larger, there could be increasing pressure for it to develop a common defence policy; 10. Confirms that the enlargement of the European Union will also fundamentally contribute to the overall security of our continent and underlines the importance of the Pact for Stability in Europe and the European Conference in that respect; 11. Notes the decisions adopted by the North Atlantic Council in Berlin on 3 June 1996 regarding recognition of the European security and defence identity within the Atlantic Alliance and the agreement reached on the CJTF concept, which will enable the European States to take action under the CFSP or on a bilateral or multilateral basis while being able to make use of Atlantic Alliance infrastructures and resources when the United States do not wish to take part in a given operation; Invites the EU Member States which also belong to NATO to ensure the principles governing the 12. CJTF are clarified, so that practical arrangements to prepare for CJTF actions can be made; 13. Emphasizes the need for the Member States, following consultation with NATO when appropriate, to acquire a larger European capacity in the fields of strategic air mobility, space intelligence and satellite communications for cases in which Europe(cid:146)s vital interests make it necessary to conduct independent operations; 14. Emphasizes the importance of the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council and its enhanced Partnership for Peace programme, which enable all present and future EU Member States to take part in operations launched by NATO on an equal footing with NATO members, such as in Bosnia and Herzegovina; 15. Considers that cooperation in the field of armaments needs to be strengthened and that the restructuring of Europe(cid:146)s defence-related industries, the establishment of an open internal market in the armaments sector, the production of common military equipment which is as cost-effective as possible and the formulation of a unified policy on arms exports are essential to the establishment of a common defence policy; welcomes the decisions taken in this area by the WEU Council at Erfurt, which prepared the way for the establishment of a European Armaments Agency as provided for in the Maastricht Treaty, and hopes that the existing bodies (WEAO and OCCAR) will ultimately be brought together within such an agency; Notes that the creation of a common defence policy supported by a common armaments policy is 16. not at odds with the objective of global disarmament; 17. Welcomes the progress made by the Fifteen with the drafting of a Code of Conduct on arms exports, particularly as regards the refusal notification procedure and the establishment of joint principles to govern exports, and calls for that agreement to be concluded speedily; draws attention to the fact that this coordination of policies on exports will increase transparency among the Member States as they establish strict joint standards to govern their arms exports and will help to maintain and develop a strong European defence industry by facilitating closer cooperation among the Member State industries; Notes that the forces currently answerable to WEU (FAWEU) constitute the instruments of a 18. common defence policy; Deplores the fact that neither the European Union, pursuant to Article J. 4(2) of the Maastricht 19. Treaty, nor the WEU itself reached agreement on intervention by Eurofor and Euromarfor in Albania, but welcomes the fact that the four categories of WEU members were involved in the (cid:145)Alba(cid:146) operation under Italian auspices, thus demonstrating that the Europeans are capable of taking independent limited military actions; C 167/194 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 1. 6. 98 Thursday 14 May 1998 20. Proposes, with the view to the gradual development of a common defence policy for the European Union, a set of practical measures which will, at the appropriate time, facilitate the integration of the WEU into the European Union and enable each State to take part; 21. Urges the Union to implement without equivocation the provisions of the Amsterdam Treaty under which the Union shall have political responsibility in terms of its defining guidelines for decisions and action taken under the CFSP, which the WEU shall be specifically instructed to implement at the military level; Calls for the observer States to be able to take part in military operations (including defence 22. operations) other than Petersberg missions, under the same conditions as for those missions; Recommends that closer relations be forged between the European Union and the WEU by means 23. of: › the exchange of information and documents between the two organizations, › the establishment of an interparliamentary delegation within the European Parliament responsible for relations with the WEU Assembly, which would: (i) enable the two assemblies to establish ongoing working relations to consider jointly the conditions essential to the implementation of the common defence policy provided for in Article J. 7(1) of the Amsterdam Treaty, (ii) help to improve the flow of information between the two assemblies, (iii) and facilitate the exercise by the two assemblies of the powers of democratic scrutiny conferred upon them by their respective treaties, for as long as the WEU continues to operate as an independent body; 24. Recommends that the (cid:145)Security Aspects(cid:146) Unit of DG1A of the Commission which deals with security and defence matters be greatly strengthened to reflect the increased importance of such matters in the Amsterdam Treaty, and kept under the authority of the Commissioner responsible for the CFSP and calls for the latter and Commission officials to take part, alongside representatives of the Council of the EU and the WEU, in the Policy Planning and Early Warning Unit so that it represents Community added value; Calls for the Policy Planning and Early Warning Unit to draw up a White Paper on defence and EU 25. peacekeeping operations for approval by the European Council; 26. Considers that such a White Paper, which would identify, inter alia, common security interests, would enable the Member States(cid:146) defence policies to be gradually harmonized, thus facilitating the development of common armaments programmes and thereby strengthening the European Union(cid:146)s internal cohesion and its position on the international scene; 27. Calls for meetings of defence ministers to be held within the Council of the European Union to consider specific matters coming under the second pillar and, where appropriate, the first, such as restructuring of the European armaments industry and the issue of arms exports; 28. Calls, furthermore, for joint meetings of Foreign Affairs Ministers and Defence Ministers to be held within the Council of the European Union at least twice a year and wherever EU action is likely to require the support of armed forces, such as in the case of Petersberg missions, so as to ensure greater consistency between the decisions taken at EU level on the political guidelines for such action and their implementation by the WEU; Proposes that, as part of the work of Parliament(cid:146)s Committee on Foreign Affairs, Security and 29. Defence Policy, regular meetings be organized with the Secretaries-General of NATO and the WEU, together with the WEU Presidency and, as appropriate, the OSCE, with a view to improving the flow of information to Parliament on the activities of the organizations responsible for European security; 30. Recommends, furthermore, that, starting from 1 January 1999, when the presidencies of the European Union and the WEU will be harmonized, the Council Presidency report to plenary on the activities of both the European Union and the WEU, so as to emphasize the convergence between the two organizations; 1. 6. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 167/195 Thursday 14 May 1998 31. Notes that the establishment of a Policy Planning and Early Warning Unit, in which the WEU will take part, should facilitate full cooperation of the WEU with the EU; urges that the WEU will make all its resources (Planning Cell, Situation Centre and Satellite Centre) available to that unit; 32. Notes that the crises having developed until now in Europe (Bosnia, Albania) have required the intervention of police forces; proposes consequently that the Member States should have suitably qualified personnel in readiness and for rapid deployment; proposes that such operations could be coordinated and organized with the help of the WEU; 33. Proposes furthermore a small police planning unit based on the following principles: (a) given its links with the judicial and police authorities of the Member States, the unit shall be engaged by decision of the European Union; (b) the Union shall, if necessary, instruct the WEU to lay down the operational procedures for its deployment; (c) where necessary, the unit shall be strengthened by additional personnel provided by the Member States; (d) the unit shall maintain ongoing contacts with the police forces (and, where such bodies exist, the gendarmeries) of the Member States, with a view to formulating harmonized engagement procedures; it shall train and supervise local police forces when it is deployed on an operational basis; Affirms that such a common defence policy shall not be directed against anyone in particular and 34. may therefore be used as a cooperation instrument for CFSP purposes; 35. Calls for security matters to be discussed between the European Union and Russia as part of the high-level political dialogue provided for in the partnership and cooperation agreement concluded between the two parties, and recommends that the same approach be adopted vis-a‘-vis the other CIS States with which the European Union has concluded a partnership and cooperation agreement; 36. Proposes, in this connection, that, where appropriate by giving a mandate to the WEU, the European Union negotiate agreements with interested third countries, with a view to facilitating the implementation of Petersberg missions and, perhaps, even involving them in such missions; Points out that, should there be financial implications for the European Union budget, the 37. Commission must inform the budgetary authority before concluding cooperation agreements; Deplores the fact that the idea of holding a WEU summit at the time of that organization(cid:146)s 50th 38. anniversary did not meet with the approval of WEU members; 39. Takes the view that the WEU should be updated with a view to forging closer institutional links between it and the European Union prior to its possible integration into the Union; considers it essential, therefore, to consider various issues relating to the adjustments which must be made to the WEU Treaty if the above goal is to be met, such as: › the implications of the WEU Declaration of 22 July 1997 for implementation of the Amsterdam Treaty, the development of the European security and defence identity and the strengthening of the WEU(cid:146)s operational role within the CFSP, without, however, calling into question Article V of the WEU Treaty, › clarification of the status of associate partners and redefinition of that of associate members, with a view to enlargement of the European Union to take in Central and Eastern European countries and Cyprus, › the implications of the structural changes which have taken place within the WEU › the military committee and the multinational forces answerable to WEU (FAWEU) › for the WEU Treaty and, where appropriate, for relations with the European Union; 40. Decides lastly, with a view to the gradual establishment of a common defence policy, to change the name of its specialized subcommittee to (cid:145)Subcommittee on Security, Defence and Disarmament Policy(cid:146); 41. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Commission, to the Council, to WEU, NATO and OSCE bodies, to the Secretary-General of the United Nations and to the parliaments of the Member States, the applicant countries and all other European states.

G. convinced that Israel must honour the commitments relating to the Middle-East peace process which it made under the Barcelona Declaration of November 1995 and the Oslo accords, H. aware that the difficulties encountered in the Middle-East peace process are increasingly undermining the Barcelona process, 1. Believes that stability and prosperity in the Mediterranean region are of common strategic importance and that it is necessary to improve political stability and security on the basis of democratic institutions, respect for human rights and the rule of law; 2. Wishes to see a relaunch of the Euro-Mediterranean dynamic with due respect for the commitments laid down in the Barcelona Declaration, in the hope that all the countries bordering the Mediterranean can be persuaded to observe the principles which it sets out; 3. Calls on the Member States to ratify without delay the Euro-Mediterranean Agreements which have already been concluded and hopes for greater openness in the conduct of the current negotiations and in the implementation of the agreements which have already been ratified; 4. Calls on the Council to take into account the concerns of Mediterranean non-member countries on the grounds that the economies of the partner countries and the growth of their external trade in agricultural and agri-industrial products depend to a large extent on the attitude of their major partner, namely the European Union; Calls on the Commission to monitor closely the implementation of the agreements in order to reduce 5. the social impact of economic transition; 6. Calls for specific cooperation to combat drugs, terrorism and money laundering; 1. 6. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 167/197 Thursday 14 May 1998 Urges the Commission to propose a specific programme for cooperation in the field of the 7. environment, in particular for measures in favour of sustainable development in the Mediterranean; Calls for migration policy and social affairs to be incorporated into the Euro-Mediterranean 8. partnerships; 9. Calls on the Council to bear in mind the need for the partner states to achieve progress in terms of respect for human rights and basic freedoms and the need to promote dialogue between human rights organizations, governments and the European Union; 10. Calls on the Commission to brief Parliament on the specific measures it has taken to improve the currently inadequate checks at every stage of the management of projects in the context of cooperation with Mediterranean countries; 11. Notes that the three MED programmes (MED URBS, MED CAMPUS and MED MEDIA) have been restarted and hopes for confirmation of the European Union(cid:146)s commitment to providing financial support for the economic transition processes called for under the association agreements beyond the expiry dates of the MEDA programme; notes the decision to set up a MED secretariat, to be run by DG IB, which will have the task of examining the projects selected for 1996, and hopes that assessments will indeed be based on new management standards applying to decentralized cooperation; Urges the Union Presidency to pursue its diplomatic efforts with a view to relaunching the 12. Middle-East peace process; Considers that the decision by the Israeli Government not to accept the invitation to attend a further 13. meeting with the Palestinian National Authority as proposed by the USA makes it more difficult to restart the peace process; Emphasizes the crucial role to be played by civil society in the partner countries, notably in Algeria, 14. and the need to promote cooperation with counterparts within the European Union; 15.

Kosovo B4-0560, 0562, 0563, 0564 and 0565/98 Resolution on Kosovo The European Parliament, › having regard to its previous resolutions on the situation in Kosovo, especially that of 12 March 1998 (1), › having regard to the outcome of the meetings of the Contact Group for the former Yugoslavia on 25 March 1998 in Bonn and on 29 April 1998 in Rome, › having regard to the decisions taken at the meeting of the foreign and finance ministers of the G7 in London on 9 and 10 May 1998, (1) Minutes of that Sitting, Part II, Item 5. C 167/198 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 1. 6. 98 Thursday 14 May 1998 A. expressing its deepest concern about the conflict in Kosovo, which has already escalated into a low-level war, and the continuing increase in violence in that region, the systematic violations of human rights, ethnic discrimination, arbitrary police action and torture by the Serb authorities, B. extremely worried by the excessive use of force by the Yugoslav security forces, the proliferation of arms in the territory and the use of terrorist actions by some extremist groups in Kosovo; emphasizing that the use of violence to suppress political dissent as well as the use of terrorist actions to achieve political change should be absolutely rejected as a way of bringing about a solution to the crisis in Kosovo, C. emphasizing that a lasting solution to the deepening crisis in Kosovo can only be achieved by peaceful means through the opening of a meaningful and unconditional dialogue, with international involvement, between the government of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and the leadership of the Kosovo Albanian population and must be based on full respect for basic human rights, the protection of all individuals and ethnic groups and the rule of law, D. whereas the conflict in Kosovo risks spreading to surrounding areas, and whereas the Albanian Prime Minister has called for the presence of a NATO force within his country to reduce the possibility of the crisis in Kosovo escalating, E. pointing out that international response to the crisis to date has been both slow and weak, but noting that the Contact Group for the former Yugoslavia has decided to take certain measures against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, because a number of basic requirements for solving the crisis in Kosovo have not been met by the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, and deploring the Russian Federation(cid:146)s failure to associate itself with these measures, F. whereas clear recognition should be given to the openness shown by the government of Montenegro, G. noting with great concern that the further escalation of the crisis in Kosovo and the concentration of troops at the Albanian border pose a serious and immediate threat to stability in the whole region and a clear threat to international peace and stability, H. whereas evidence suggests that war crimes have been committed by Serbian police and paramilitaries in Kosovo during the fighting over the last months, and whereas the International Tribunal for War Crimes in the former Yugoslavia has the power to prosecute individuals who have committed violations of international humanitarian law on (cid:145)the territory of the former Yugoslavia since 1991(cid:146), Strongly and unreservedly condemns the use of force against the unarmed civilian population by the 1. Yugoslav forces and the proliferation of arms in the territory; 2. Strongly condemns the use of terrorist actions by some extremist groups in Kosovo; Calls on the Government of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and on the representatives of the 3. Kosovo Albanian population to start as a matter of urgency and without any preconditions a meaningful and constructive dialogue, with international involvement, on the future status of Kosovo; 4. Calls on the Government of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia to start cooperating as a matter of urgency with the Contact Group for the former Yugoslavia and to allow immediately the special representative of the European Union, Mr Gonza·lez, to start his work, which is essential for improving the general prospects of, and progress in, the dialogue; Calls on the Council to make every effort to launch a strong political initiative with the aim of 5. opening up negotiations between the parties, and to: › issue an invitation to both parties to meet at a place outside the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and › suggest further confidence-building measures; 6. Calls on the Member States, the UN Security Council, the OSCE, NATO and the WEU to take all the necessary measures to prevent the conflict in Kosovo spilling over into other parts of the region, to support the security interests of the neighbouring states and to secure their borders; 1. 6. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 167/199 Thursday 14 May 1998 Requests the Council and the Commission, but also the OSCE and the UN, immediately to send 7. observers also to the border between Albania and Kosovo; Supports the decisions taken by the Contact Group for the former Yugoslavia as a first step in 8. increasing pressure on President Milosevic and the Government of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia to find a peaceful and constructive solution to the deepening crisis in Kosovo; 9. Calls on the Council to make clear to the Yugoslav authorities that new sanctions will be introduced if they do not make rapid and constructive efforts to find a solution to the future status of Kosovo and to restore civil and human rights for its population; 10. Demands the immediate release of the political prisoners and innocent detainees from Kosovo who are held in Yugoslav prisons, such as Professor Ukshin Hoti, who has been repeatedly imprisoned simply because he pleaded for a peaceful negotiated solution to the Kosovo problem; 11. Gives its full support to all groups and individuals within and outside Kosovo who are seriously involved in seeking a constructive solution to the future of Kosovo and its people and who strive to achieve these goals by peaceful means; Calls on the International Tribunal for War Crimes in the former Yugoslavia to investigate possible 12. crimes against humanity in Kosovo without delay; 13. Urges the Council and the Commission to use every available means to bring pressure to bear so that the EU office in Pristina which Parliament has called for and the office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights may finally be opened; Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the Government of 14. the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and Mr Ibrahim Rugova. 7. Competitiveness of European industry A4-0138/98 Resolution on the competitiveness of European industry (SEC(96)2121 › C4-0025/97) The European Parliament, › having regard to the Commission(cid:146)s staff working paper on (cid:145)The competitiveness of European Industry(cid:146) (SEC(96)2121 › C4-0025/97), › having regard to the Council Resolution of 21 November 1994 on strengthening the competitiveness of European industry (1), › having regard to the observations of the parties concerned, particularly at the hearing of 25 September 1997, › having regard to its previous resolutions on industrial policy in the European Union, › having regard to the report by the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs and Industrial Policy (A4-0138/98), A. whereas industry is still the basis for the growth and prosperity of Europe; whereas the overwhelming majority of Europe(cid:146)s exports consists of industrial goods; whereas industry is of crucial importance for much of the knowledge-intensive services sector as buyer of its products, B. whereas industry supplies the service sector with the instruments and methods on which its productivity is based; whereas the competitiveness of enterprises, based on their ability to perform these strategic tasks, is therefore crucial in stimulating growth, (1) OJ C 343, 6. 12. 1994. C 167/200 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 1. 6. 98 Thursday 14 May 1998 C. whereas this process highlights the mutual dependence between the industrial fabric and the other economic activities and their institutional environment, D. whereas, therefore, Europe must have a dense industrial fabric, distributed evenly amongst all sectors of industry without neglecting the complementarity between small and medium-sized undertakings, the agents of growth and employment, and large-scale undertakings, the engines of Europe(cid:146)s active participation in the globalization of trade, E. whereas competitiveness requires, in addition to an inherently well-performing industrial base, overall economic conditions of price and currency stability, together with a tax burden and a system of taxation which do not essentially differ from those in competitor countries, a functioning pay structure and a framework conducive to genuine dialogue between management and labour, F. whereas European industry represents the mastery of production processes, the vocational skills and experience and the accumulation of scientific and technological knowhow which are essential to an economic bloc of its importance, G. whereas, however, education systems in Europe need to be modernized, entrepreneurship and management know-how strengthened and advanced research intensified in order to improve on the utilization and development of new technologies, H. whereas an approach towards strengthening Europe(cid:146)s industrial competitiveness and improving its productivity which is based chiefly on the flexibility of the labour market and cutting the total wage bill is economically and socially inappropriate, I. whereas the markets in Europe must operate better, which requires more intensive measures to combat the distortion of government aid and monopolies, more exposure to competition with better compliance with public procurement rules and more privatization, and further liberalization and deregulation of markets, J. whereas the task of adapting industry and, more generally, the European economy to the new technological and economic conditions is a formidable challenge for Europe which concerns society as a whole and makes the responsibility of the political, economic and social leaders all the greater since this phase of social transformation must take place under social conditions which are acceptable and consistent with the European social model, K. whereas the pace of change is growing ever faster as a result of the development of new technology, new competitor countries and more open markets; whereas, therefore, rules and regulations must be based on principles which are simple and sustainable in the long term in order to produce the necessary flexibility required to succeed in adjusting to new times, 1. Welcomes the publication of a report on the competitiveness of European industry which provides a valuable basis for analysis and a useful tool for assessing the conduct of European industrial policy and hopes that the Commission will regularly publish an evaluation report of this nature on the same analytical basis which will help to monitor trends in the performance of European industry and assess the effectiveness of the measures implemented; 2. Notes that Europe(cid:146)s problems are well charted and that the need now, therefore, is to switch from analysis to action and for the Member States, in particular, to live up to their commitment to enhance competitiveness; Notes the contradictions in the Commission(cid:146)s conclusions which do nonetheless show that despite 3. the criticism with which it so often meets European industry is continuing to perform honourably in its traditionally strong sectors (engineering and metal working, chemistry and pharmaceuticals) even if its performance generally lags behind that of its Japanese and American competitors and even if this trend does not appear to have altered in recent years; 4. Stresses the impact of exchange-rate fluctuations on the competitiveness of European enterprises, whether in Europe in 1992 and 1993 or vis-a‘-vis the dollar over the past decade, and believes that the adoption of a single currency will therefore have a stabilizing and positive effect; 1. 6. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 167/201 Thursday 14 May 1998 5. Notes the lack of any real chronic sectoral weaknesses, with the exception of the persistent backwardness in the field of information technology and, to a lesser extent, biotechnology; is nonetheless concerned by the structural failings affecting enterprises as much as the institutional environment, by rigidities of all types and by the difficulties and delays experienced by enterprises and European society in adapting to the technological changes and their repercussions; 6. Points to the very clear correlation between the productivity of the European economy and levels of investment, both public and private, whose weakness over the past decade is plainly one of the major handicaps; 7. Questions, where the level of productivity in Europe is concerned, on the one hand the tax burden borne by enterprises and labour and, on the other hand, the effectiveness of the methods employed by European firms to boost their productivity, whilst noting that, with equal growth rates, the United States are creating more jobs at both high and low value added; Notes that, despite its considerable diversified and complementary research potential, Europe 8. achieves only mediocre results in the area of innovation, although it is essential to its competitiveness, and this is reflected in its decline in the patents sector; Acknowledges the impact of environmental requirements on competitiveness as a factor stimulating 9. research, innovation and improvements in the quality of products but also takes the view that environmental constraints constitute a net financial burden which is only acceptable in production costs if it is imposed on other competitors in the same way and is part of a more comprehensive approach towards sustainable development; 10. Remarks that, apart from the overlapping of economies as a result of the expansion of trade in the internal market, Europe(cid:146)s industrial structures continue to display their own particular national characteristics which only appear to be changing slowly, reflecting Europe(cid:146)s difficulty in evolving towards an organizational model geared to the globalization of markets; 11. Considers that the Commission(cid:146)s analysis fully justifies improving the general underlying conditions in order to strengthen the competitiveness of industry and speed up the necessary structural transformation; 12. Calls on the Commission, accordingly, to draw up proposals laying the foundations for a genuine European industrial policy based, in particular, on incentives for public and private investment, the introduction of aid mechanisms › of the ECSC type › for innovative, job creating and/or restructuring industries, and the development of venture capital; Stresses that a Union industrial policy must lay the emphasis on long-term objectives and 13. contribute towards economic and social cohesion; 14. Considers therefore that it is essential to ensure that a financial environment more favourable to business is created, which will be assisted by the introduction of the euro, in particular by facilitating equity market capitalization, creating a tax structure which is conducive to internal financing and employment, aiding the diversification of sources of finance, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises, and, finally, by promoting lower ex-post real interest rates; 15. Firmly supports the principle of coordinating and harmonizing fiscal policies, particularly those aspects relating to the various forms of company taxation, in order to prevent any unfair national and/or regional tax competition which would lead, in addition to the relocation of firms, to the depletion of the authorities(cid:146) tax receipts, to the medium and long-term detriment of economic and social conditions in Europe; 16. Emphasizes the role and responsibility of government at national and European level in financing and part-financing the transport and teleworking papers infrastructures made available to enterprises and repeats, on this occasion, its calls for funds for the trans-European networks, as finance for the teleworking papers infrastructures must be provided to support the necessary adjustment to the new technologies; C 167/202 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 1. 6. 98 Thursday 14 May 1998 17. Considers that the simplification of administration and, more generally, the improvement of every aspect of the administrative environment of enterprises (from business start-ups to taxation, through the application of social legislation and the gathering of statistics) has not been the subject of a sufficiently comprehensive study by the national and European public authorities and suggests that they seek to tailor the role of the administrations more closely to the needs of companies, on the basis of a (cid:145)public service mission(cid:146); Believes that, in the area of R&D, public spending on industrial research must be geared more to 18. commercial applications and its level must be maintained, especially for Community research and for national research policies which must now be properly coordinated between the Member States to enable synergies to take effect in view of the constant increase in the critical mass of research projects; 19. Strongly encourages the creation of European structures, whether private, public or joint in origin (structures of which Eureka is just one of the possible configurations) capable of bringing industrial partners together in major research cooperation projects; 20. Believes the European Union can significantly advance the integration of industry by creating the appropriate legal framework for European groups, with the adoption of the European company statute as a first and psychologically crucial step towards recognizing the European dimension of business; 21. Takes the view that competition policy is an intrinsic component of industrial policy inasmuch as it guarantees all companies the same conditions of development; believes, therefore, that competition policy must be coordinated with research and innovation policy to the extent that it corresponds to an industrial strategy and must be asserted in the European Union(cid:146)s trade policy (as was possible recently in the case of the MacDonnell-Douglas/Boeing merger); Considers that competition policy must encourage the regrouping of European companies in so far 22. as that influences their competitiveness on world markets; 23. Considers that minimum social and environmental conditions should be laid down to govern bilateral and multilateral world trade in order to combat social and environmental dumping; believes, further, that wider and more effective coordination is required when certifying products to be offered for sale on the EU market; 24. Believes that the opening of markets and the globalization of trade makes it necessary to strengthen intellectual property rights for European firms by passing legislation at international level, in the form of economic instruments to promote the competitiveness of enterprises; 25. Considers, furthermore, that the activity of European firms on the large international markets continues, despite the WTO rules, to be bound by numerous direct and indirect restrictions which require more concrete and more energetic action on the part of the Commission, whether by systematically bringing infringement proceedings, extending existing agreements to nations currently excluded (such as China) or limiting the number of bilateral agreements and preferential regimes; Believes that labour markets must be able to adjust in line with the changes in society, and that the 26. initiatives taken on reducing working time in the different Member States must be analysed in terms of their long-term economic and social impact; States its conviction that it is in the skills and continual upgrading of its labour force that Europe 27. can find a lasting remedy for unemployment; education and vocational training must undergo fundamental changes to meet the constant need for new skills which are increasingly drawing the role of education into the business world, a fact which could lead in-service training to be regarded as an integral part of working time and bring it closer to the work place; 28. Hopes that European companies will show more dynamism in adjusting to structural changes with new working methods and a greater ability to take up competitive positions at European and international level; 1. 6. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 167/203 Thursday 14 May 1998 29. Observes that the changes to the process of industrial organization, arising as much from the pressure of international competition as from the impact of the new technologies, must be taken more fully into account by European firms which must be encouraged to use management tools such as benchmarking or industrial marketing, which is based on a partnership of enterprises upstream and downstream; Stresses the positive contribution that public sector companies make to the industrial competitive- 30. ness of the Union and to the attainment of its general objectives; Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Commission, the Council, UNICE, the 31. Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions. 8.

whereas rules and Regulations for these networks should therefore take all of these activities into account, such as information exchange, research cooperation, conferences, chats as well as corporate and personal websites, E. whereas electronic commerce is developing rapidly at both European and international level, driven by the unique character of the Internet; whereas the development of electronic commerce is expected to continue during the years to come, constituting one of the cornerstones of the Information Society; whereas electronic commerce is essentially global in nature and thus will contribute to the ongoing globalization of the economy, F. whereas trade will have a major impact on European economies and could improve competitiveness on condition that the Internet is universally accessible, G. whereas there is already a relatively predictable and clear international legal environment (GATS) for the provision of electronic services, H. whereas national taxation systems so far have been rooted in traditional commerce and have been in the process of being revised for the past decade; whereas electronic commerce will contribute to the development of deeper and further changes in these systems; whereas consistent taxation approaches at international level are absolutely crucial to ensure the effectiveness of taxation laws on the Internet, I. whereas electronic commerce enhances the opportunity to expand and refine the dialogue between producers and consumers, thereby improving the quality of products as well as pre- and after-sales service, and will have the potential of improving Europe(cid:146)s competitiveness in opening up new business opportunities; whereas the dynamics of the market will change by broadening, accelerating and facilitating customer choice, thereby creating new employment possibilities in both traditional and new sectors, J. whereas new jobs are being created in the service industries as new services and new service needs come into existence, K. whereas electronic commerce by its nature has the potential to support the creation and development of small and medium-sized enterprises, through reducing costs and lowering the barriers to entry in new markets for these companies, and whereas electronic commerce will only become fully established in Europe if a large majority of small and medium-sized enterprises actually participate in electronic commerce and communication, L. whereas full competition in the telecommunications market as well as in the access and service provision markets is essential for the sound development of electronic commerce, and therefore the full completion of the telecommunications liberalization from 1 January 1998 is vital, M. whereas a prerequisite for the development of electronic commerce in Europe is that businesses and consumers become fully aware of its capacity to empower consumers and of all the potential benefits it has to offer, such as the opportunity for its users to have quick and cheap access to goods and services, and for enhancing their freedom of choice, as this awareness is crucial to stimulate investment in the enabling technologies and engagement in electronic commerce; whereas the promotion of universal access to the Information Society, the use of electronic commerce and information technologies will facilitate the awareness process, C 167/206 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 1. 6. 98 Thursday 14 May 1998 N. whereas the degree of use of information and communication technologies in the European Union varies in the different Member States, O. whereas consumers will only be willing to use electronic commerce if they are convinced that it is as safe and reliable as conducting transactions on the traditional market, and whereas ensuring secure trading in the on-line environment by means of technologies involving encryption and/or digital signatures is therefore essential, P. whereas privacy and a high level of consumer protection is a fundamental right of individuals and should be safeguarded; whereas the rights of consumers have to be guaranteed and adapted to this new environment, Q. whereas public administrations have an important role in promoting electronic commerce, both by creating the right framework of regulations and by supportive actions such as making use of the Internet by carrying out public procurement and taxation activities on line, thereby greatly benefiting from electronic commerce through simplified procedures and reduced paperwork, and in narrowing the gap between citizens and administrations, making public services friendlier for the citizens, R. whereas the development of a regulatory environment for electronic commerce, considering the speed of its development, has to be flexible, allow for quick adaptations and take into account the developments of the market, and whereas governments should encourage and support industry self-regulation wherever appropriate; whereas, however, the establishment of the framework for action as well as final responsibilities remain with the public regulator, S. whereas unnecessary regulation of commercial activities will distort development of the electronic marketplace by decreasing the supply and raising the cost of products and services for consumers the world over, T. whereas existing laws and regulatory frameworks in the fields of commerce, telecommunications and the media may need to be reviewed, in order to reflect the needs of electronic commerce, U. whereas international harmonization and interoperability in the field of electronic commerce is needed in order to avoid users becoming locked in specific solutions, and in order to benefit fully from its global nature, inter alia through the existing standardization process, MRAs, de facto standards or other appropriate mechanisms, V. whereas a process of technological and market convergence is underway in the telecommunications, audiovisual and information technology sectors, and whereas this convergence is of key importance to the development of electronic commerce in that it creates new competitive pressures between content and infrastructure industry, new degrees of convergence, but also new diversity within these sectors, W. whereas the use of electronic payments will help to reduce the frictions associated with the implementation of Economic and Monetary Union, by lowering the costs associated with the transition to the euro and by speeding up its use; whereas a possible scenario may be the creation of a parallel payment system outside of conventional banking, X. whereas electronic commerce has the potential to stimulate the development of the peripheral regions and thereby contribute to regional cohesion within the European Union; whereas it also has a positive social impact in that it makes access to electronic commerce easier for disabled people, 1. 6. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 167/207 Thursday 14 May 1998 1. Welcomes and supports the Commission communication on a European initiative in electronic commerce, which provides a framework as well as guidance for European policy in the field of electronic commerce and encourages its development; stresses that it is vital, in the interests of the competitiveness of European industry in the field of electronic commerce, that European businesses, and hence also citizens, should be able to derive full benefit from the internal market; Believes that the increased use of electronic commerce will have an impact on employment; 2. therefore supports the Commission(cid:146)s initiative to investigate and report in the form of studies on the employment effects of electronic commerce; these studies are to be carried out rapidly and communicated to the European Parliament as well as to the Member States; 3. Considers that every possible effort must be made to exploit the potential for new job creation in high-grade information-based services by introducing new and special education and training facilities to impart these new skills; 4. Considers that electronic commerce possesses enormous potential but that precautions should also be taken to deal with the anticipated structural changes, particularly in such sectors as the retail trade, marketing and tourism; calls for SMEs, in particular, to be prepared for the conversion process by means of training and further training measures, by means of appropriate research and development programmes funded by the Commission and by means of information about the necessity of this development; Stresses the paramount importance of increasing skills and awareness of consumers and businesses 5. in the European Union of the nature and possibilities of electronic commerce, and considers that government plays an important role in this in view of its statutory powers in the field of education; therefore encourages the creation of education networks, the provision of new incentives for training, as well as the improvement of knowledge diffusion and learning methods and, on account of the pioneering role which government can play, both in the way in which it organizes its own departments and in encouraging the use of electronic commerce in society, considers it important that government services should be made available electronically, both for citizens and for businesses, especially SMEs; 6. Recognizes that electronic commerce provides SMEs with the opportunity to reach new and distant markets and identify new market segments at lower costs, and enhances possibilities to develop cooperative schemes; in order to improve the possibilities for this development, asks for specific actions for SMEs at European level, such as the establishment of Web-based business directory services, intensification of the Euro-Info Centres(cid:146) awareness activities on electronic commerce, as well as the setting up of a quality label covering a number of requirements in order to increase consumer confidence towards products and services from relatively unknown smaller companies; Urges the Commission and the governments of the Member States to seek international agreements 7. in this area and stresses that international policy coordination is especially needed regarding issues such as taxation, liability, payment systems, security, data protection, interoperability, IPR, public procurement, contract law, regulated professions, commercial communications and electronic authentication/digital signatures; in this context, asks for clarification at international level of the respective responsibilities of different international bodies in the field of electronic commerce; recommends that national initiatives in the field of electronic commerce should be mutually coordinated; Stresses that greater cooperation, particularly between EU States and Eastern European States, is 8. desirable in the field of electronic transactions; Considers that the future organization of the Internet, and the associated consequences for electronic 9. commerce, are of strategic importance to the development of electronic commerce in Europe, and advocates the setting-up of a worldwide, market-based system to register, assign and manage Internet domain names, which system should take full account of the geographical and functional diversity of the Internet; C 167/208 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 1. 6. 98 Thursday 14 May 1998 10. Calls for the investigation of the possibilities and necessities of the creation of an international universal commercial code in the area of electronic commerce, to be negotiated within the WTO context; this code should include all issues that have not yet been resolved by international agreements such as taxation, place of establishment, liability and payment systems; 11. Calls, however, for coordination at European Union level in order to avoid fragmentation of the Internal Market, and for he establishment of an appropriate European regulatory framework as well as a common and strong negotiating position, and stresses the importance of a simple, minimalist and predictable legal framework for electronic commerce; calls on the Commission to make proposals without delay to ensure the proper functioning of the internal market in the field of electronic commerce and complete freedom for European enterprises to provide services, and in particular to ensure that enterprises which meet the legal requirements in their country of origin can transact business freely throughout Europe; Calls for improved internal organization in the creation of a single point of coordination, 12. responsible to all European institutions and calling on relevant specialist services of the Commission for support in combining the different parts of the European strategy for electronic commerce, which may include regulation, taxation, international harmonization, skills and awareness, employment impact, online-crime, consumer dialogue and industry dialogue; 13. Encourages governments and the Commission to make constructive use of input from industry, consumer associations and other interest groups while setting up a legal and regulatory environment for electronic commerce; this regulatory framework should not hinder its rapid development but should also ensure that consumers have access to electronic commerce and must therefore be flexible and ensure technology neutrality and be beneficial for both suppliers and users; it must also promote interoperability between systems and allow for self-regulatory measures to ensure speed and flexibility whenever possible; 14. Urges the Commission to speed up the process of presenting a proposal for a Directive on information society services, including electronic commerce, in order to clarify the regulatory framework and to safeguard the rights of the users of electronic commerce; stresses that such a Directive should include for example the definition of the place of establishment for service providers in the on-line environment and the place of transaction, liability, commercial communications and regulated profes- sions. In order to ensure transparency and coordination, any other issues in the area of electronic commerce where Community initiatives may be envisaged (such as patents, trademarks, domain names, jurisdiction as well as the clarification of the legal role of information security involving the aspects of confidentiality, authenticity and integrity) should be clearly indicated on a (cid:145)road map(cid:146) with a detailed timetable; 15. Emphasizes the vital and urgent need to resolve in an internationally acceptable manner the precise legal and accounting nature of intangible materials traded on electronic networks in order to resolve issues of legislation, taxation, corporate accounting and consumer redress; 16. Acknowledges the horizontal nature of the liability problem, covering diverse issues such as copyright, consumer protection, trademarks, misleading advertising, protection of personal data, product liability, obscene content, hate speech, etc. ; looks forward in this regard to the coming Commission Directive on information society services, including electronic commerce, which should address this problem amongst others; Asks the Commission to present a proposal on how to solve certain aspects of contract law in view 17. of the new problems that arise in a transfrontier and networked environment, including the recognition of on-line contracts and the determination of when and where a contract is concluded as well as the necessary clarification on which laws are applicable to contracts, taking into account uniform rules on freedom of choice and the role of mandatory rules; 1. 6. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 167/209 Thursday 14 May 1998 18. Is looking forward to the discussions in the context of the recently adopted proposal for a Directive on copyright (COM(97)0628) (1), recognizing the complexity of dealing with intellectual property rights in an electronic medium; demands that any rules to protect intellectual property rights should balance the interests of right holders and users, and believes that defining exceptions for fair use is essential for electronic commerce; 19. Urges the Commission and Council to continue and complete as soon as possible the harmonization of national consumer legislation concerning the sale of goods and services (e. g. harmonization of statutory guarantees after the sale of goods, and distance selling of financial services) with the aim of giving consumers the necessary confidence to make use of electronic commerce and thereby derive greater benefit from the internal market; 20. Urges the Commission and the Member States to work at international level to create coherence in taxation laws › particularly with regard to value added tax › in order to provide legal certainty, to avoid undue revenue losses and to ensure neutrality; Believes that new taxes should not be imposed on electronic commerce which would penalize it 21. compared to other trading activities; Asks the Commission to clarify whether electronic commerce trading should be taxed according to 22. the traditional system or whether new realities on the Internet create worldwide challenges that require a complete reformulation of all tax principles (eg. definition of territorial concepts, rules of origin, sourcing of income); 23. Stresses that an agreement has to be reached at European level concerning taxation issues, in order to create a clear and common framework for taxation in the area of electronic commerce › preferably through the use of a single VAT rate; furthermore, asks for clarification concerning the question of whether taxation should take place in the country of origin or in the country of destination; encourages also tax authorities to work together to develop a consistent cross-border approach; stresses its view that discussions are necessary in the international arena on questions of customs and taxation; 24. Recalls that building trust and confidence in citizens is a key element for the promotion of electronic commerce and that privacy is an essential element in the creation of confidence; points out that EU Directive 95/46/EC on Data Protection, which will be fully transposed by October 1998, provides a framework for the issue of privacy; stresses however that the implementation of this Directive must be monitored very carefully in order not to create unnecessary barriers and to ensure a flexible approach; 25. Affirms furthermore that issues concerning the protection of privacy and data protection should preferably be negotiated at global level, with an initiative being launched within the multilateral context of the WTO, with a view to agreeing binding rules concerning the effective protection of privacy; does not exclude the possibility of consultation in other fora, such as the OECD and the UN, concerning this; suggests also that industry self-regulation should be promoted at international level to achieve the same goal; 26. Asks in the meantime the Commission to negotiate a Mutual Recognition Agreement with the United States on data protection, as a first step towards solving the current difficulties in defining a common approach; also asks the Commission to ensure that certain principles concerning protective standards are included in this negotiation process as well as notice and consent issues and clarification of use and re-use of personal information. The European Parliament should be involved in this process; 27. Recognizes the blurring of the distinction between information and advertising as well as the enhanced possibilities for tracking and tracing individuals, with related problems of privacy and protection of data, the risk of misuse of consumer profiles and the lack of cross-border redress; urges therefore the Commission to present a proposal on how to establish a cross-border redress system; (1) OJ C 108, 7. 4. 1998, p. 6. C 167/210 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 1. 6. 98 Thursday 14 May 1998 28. Stresses that the most effective means known of user defence against on-line crime are strong encryption technologies, and that access to these technologies should therefore be ensured for businesses and citizens, and limits to the use of encryption should be avoided; points out also that current EU legislation (Article 19 Council Regulation (EEC) No 3381/94 setting up a Community regime for the control of exports of dual-use goods (1)), which requires Member States to control intra-Community shipments of cryptography products, is not compatible with a well-functioning internal market and is outdated in this political and technical context; considers therefore that this Regulation should be amended so as to eliminate gradually intra-Community controls on cryptography products, thereby enabling cryptography products for commercial and private purposes to circulate freely; 29. Encourages the establishment by the EU and its Member States of an adequate and comprehensive industrial policy in the field of cryptography products and digital signatures along the lines of the abovementioned Commission communication on ensuring security and trust in electronic communication › towards a European framework for digital signatures and encryption; 30. Is in favour of applying the Internal Market approach when regulating digital signatures, in order to establish minimum requirements at Community level and safeguard their free circulation; this could be done through the use of cross-border legal recognition of digital signatures, preferably on the basis of home country control and mutual recognition or, if necessary, by use of EU harmonization; highlights that standardization has an important role to play as a facilitator of mutual recognition of digital signatures; 31. Calls for international police and justice coordination to combat crime and fraud in the cyberspace; encourages furthermore systems of policing to be put in place, enabling the tracking of suspected criminals in an appropriate way without impeding the legitimate commercial and private use of strong encryption; 32. Supports the creation of an international arbitration mechanism, self-regulated by industry, for settling disputes on electronic commerce transactions when the existing settlement bodies prove not to be appropriate; 33. Stresses the importance of technologies ensuring safe means of electronic payment and asks the Commission to propose the establishment of a framework which allows both banks and non-bank financial institutions to issue stored value and electronic payment products in Europe on a competitive basis within an interoperable system, under the supervision of the future ECB which will have the duty of managing monetary policy; considers it necessary to explore, in the interests of protecting privacy, the possibility of making payments via the Internet anonymously, i. e. without the payer(cid:146)s identity being recorded; 34. Affirms that the fifth framework programme for research must include, under the heading (cid:145)user-friendly information society(cid:146), support for development of technical standards specific to electronic commerce (electronic signature, encryption) and for generic network technologies such as database access management, search engines for access to vast arrays of distributed information, and network management; calls also for the fifth framework programme and the research programmes of the Member States and regions to include efforts to boost technical capacity so as to reduce costs; 35. Reminds the Commission that the new interactive services for electronic commerce raise the demand for higher band networks, second-generation Internet and multimedia technology. These developments should be taken into consideration both in the fifth framework research programme and in the TEN programme. Both satellite and cable technology should be kept under consideration; 36. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Commission and the Council.

Improvements in functioning of institutions A4-0117/98 Resolution on improvements in the functioning of the Institutions without modification of the Treaties › making EU policies more open and democratic The European Parliament, › having regard to its resolutions on the outcomes of the Intergovernmental Conferences, in particular that of 7 April 1992 (1), and its resolution of 19 November 1997 on the Amsterdam Treaty › CONF 4007/97 › C4-0538/97 (2), › having regard to its resolution of 10 December 1996 on participation by citizens and social players in the Union(cid:146)s institutional system (3), › having regard to its resolution of 2 April 1998 on democratic accountability during the third stage of EMU (4), › having regard to its other resolutions in which it has called for a reinforced role for the European Parliament, including by means of interinstitutional agreements, in a number of EU policy areas where the European Parliament is not formally consulted, › having regard to the European Council meeting of 2 and 3 May 1998 in Brussels, › having regard to Rule 148 of its Rules of Procedure, › having regard to the report of its Committee on Institutional Affairs and the opinion of the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs and Industrial Policy (A4-0117/98), A. whereas the democratic deficit is one of the reasons for discontent with the Union, B. whereas democratic control is not being ensured in certain areas, either by the national parliaments or by the European Parliament, Practical action to reduce the democratic deficit after the Maastricht and Amsterdam Intergovernmen- tal Conferences Considers it to be unacceptable that there are EU policy areas in which powers of democratic control 1. have been taken away from national parliaments and have not been replaced by scrutiny by the European Parliament, especially Economic and Monetary Union, but also the common commercial policy, agreements stemming from the Euratom Treaty, agricultural policy, fisheries policy, development cooperation policy, competition policy and Community implementation of collective agreements negotiated between the social partners; 2. Regrets the failure to ensure appropriate Treaty changes in these respects at the Amsterdam IGC, and calls for this failure to be compensated, at least for the period until a future IGC, by arrangements that ensure that the European Parliament is properly informed and adequately involved in the development of these policies, with a view to strengthening democratic control in those areas and making Community action more effective and transparent; Believes that the conclusion of interinstitutional agreements is the most appropriate way to achieve 3. this objective of reinforced democratic control at EU level; 4. Believes that the 1998 ad hoc procedure on agricultural expenditure must be continued and argues that this procedure and its structure should be formalized by a new interinstitutional agreement, which should reflect the latest developments in the procedure; (1) OJ C 125, 18. 5. 1992, p. 81.

C 167/212 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 1. 6. 98 Thursday 14 May 1998 5. Considers that improvements in the political functioning of Parliament itself are needed in order to make it more open, effective and lively and to enhance the dialogue between the Institutions, and instructs its Committee on the Rules of Procedure to submit appropriate proposals; Economic and Monetary Union Considers that Economic and Monetary Union poses major questions of democratic accountability 6. which have been further accentuated by the recent introduction of the Stability and Growth Pact, and have not in any way been compensated by the Amsterdam Treaty, nor by the compromises reached on employment at the Amsterdam and (special) Luxembourg European Councils, to which concrete expression must be given; Regrets that previous European Parliament attempts to secure an interinstitutional agreement in this 7. area have not been followed through; 8. Considers it now to be essential to tackle the twin issues of democratic accountability of the European Central Bank and of wider consultation procedures as regards EU-level coordination of national economic policies; 9. Believes that the European Parliament should be fully informed to enable it to inform the Council and the European Central Bank of its analyses and preferred courses of action as regards general and strategic policy aspects of EMU and in particular as regards consistency between the broad economic policy guidelines, monetary policy and employment policies; 10. Calls, in this context, for the Council to enter into negotiations for a new interinstitutional agreement providing for more systematic procedures as regards the European Parliament contribution to the setting of the broad economic policy guidelines pursuant to Article 103(2), multilateral surveillance pursuant to Article 103(3) and (4) and the excessive deficit procedure pursuant to Article 104c; Submits the attached draft interinstitutional agreement (see Annex) as an initial basis for 11. discussions with the Council and Commission; International agreements Regrets that its role in the field of external economic policy has not been improved by the 12. Amsterdam Treaty, notably the fact that the European Parliament is not even formally consulted on agreements based on Article 113, especially considering the role Parliament has as an arm of the budgetary authority; Asks the Commission and the Council to take account of the fact that any international agreement 13. with financial implications requires at the very least prior consultation of Parliament, and its assent, as part of the budgetary authority, if the financial implications are significant; 14. Calls, in consequence, for the European Parliament to be given more systematic information concerning the separate phases of preparation, adoption and implementation of negotiating guidelines for external agreements, and as to how the negotiations themselves are proceeding; Believes that better information also needs to be provided to the European Parliament on 15. proceedings within the Article 113 committee; 16. Again expresses its concern about the undemocratic nature of the Euratom Treaty, and that the European Parliament is not being consulted on certain international agreements stemming from the Euratom Treaty, such as the Accession Agreement to the Korean Peninsula Energy Development Organization (KEDO); 17. Calls for an interinstitutional agreement for the European Parliament to be formally consulted on all international agreements falling under the Euratom Treaty, and insists that, pursuant to the Interinstitu- tional Agreement on budgetary discipline and improvement of the budget procedure (1), the Commission informs the Budgetary Authority prior to the conclusion of the agreement of its financial consequences for the EU budget; (1) OJ C 331, 7. 12. 1993, p. 1. 1. 6. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 167/213 Thursday 14 May 1998 18. Considers that, in view of the fact that in international fisheries agreements important budgetary implications are always involved, Article 228(3), second subparagraph, of the Treaty, which requires the assent of Parliament, should always apply; Social policy: collective agreements between the social partners 19. Believes that an important institutional problem is posed by the fact that decisions provided for in Articles 118a and 118b of the EC Treaty on social agreements of such significance as those on parental leave and on part-time work can be taken without the European Parliament being consulted or even informed; 20. Calls for an interinstitutional agreement to redress this situation in such a way that the European Parliament is involved in consultation initiatives from the outset by providing for it to receive all the relevant texts and to be given more information by the Commission as to the progress of negotiations, and also to be given the opportunity to express its views when the Council has to take a decision pursuant to Article 118b; Competition policy 21. Calls on the Commission formally to undertake to send the European Parliament all draft Commission implementing proposals in the field of Community competition policy, such as draft block exemptions pursuant to Article 85(3) of the Treaty and Commission initiatives taken pursuant to Article 90(3) of the Treaty affecting public undertakings; 22. Further calls for the regular information meetings already organized by the Commissioner for Competition with the members of the European Parliament(cid:146)s relevant committee to become a matter of standard practice for the future; 23. If a decision cannot be reached by way of the normal procedure, insists on an agreement between the European Parliament, the Commission and the Council on codes of conduct in the field of fiscal policy; Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Commission, the Council and the parliaments 24. and governments of the Member States. * * * ANNEX Draft interinstitutional agreement between the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on provisions relating to the coordination of national economic policies General provisions A. The purpose of this agreement is to implement the various procedures for the coordination of national economic policies in the context of economic and monetary union. B.

Situation in Sudan B4-0498, 0506, 0523, 0534, 0539, 0541 and 0552/98 Resolution on the situation in Sudan The European Parliament, › having regard to the declaration made by the Presidency of the European Union on 1 May 1998, › having regard to its previous resolutions on the persistent civil war and human rights violations in Sudan, A. extremely concerned by the continuing deterioration in the humanitarian situation in southern Sudan, in particular in the region of Bhar-al-Ghazal, where 350 000 people are threatened with starvation, and aware that the drought may well exacerbate the situation, B. recognizing that, although the El Nin(cid:152)o weather phenomenon has caused a severe drought, the present crisis is primarily the result of the devastating war and of obstruction by the Sudanese Government forces of relief supplies sent in under the UN(cid:146)s Operation Lifeline, C. concerned at the escalation of the civil war, which is particularly affecting southern Sudan, causing increased human suffering among displaced civilian communities, giving rise to an ever-increasing number of refugees and bringing about the collapse of economic and social structures, D. deploring the persistent serious human rights abuses and violations inflicted on the defenceless civilian population by all the belligerents, E. recalling in particular its condemnation of the repressive and anti-democratic measures taken by the Sudanese Government, which have taken the form of manifold violations of human rights, especially of political and religious rights, forced conscription of the population, support for international terrorist activities, and contempt for the warnings given and the repeated sanctions imposed on it by the international community on many occasions, F. deeply concerned at the many cases of political and religious persecution by the Sudanese Government, and particularly worried as to the fate of the political prisoners who are being held in deplorable conditions, G. indignant at the Sudanese Government(cid:146)s deliberate policy of hindering the supply of humanitarian aid, thereby depriving the suffering people of the food aid they so desperately require, and concerned that humanitarian agencies have frequently been denied access and cannot, therefore, provide the humanitarian aid needed in the war zones, and whereas the recent authorization of seven humanitarian cargo flights by Khartoum represents only a very marginal concession that could be ended at any moment, H. reiterating its firm belief that the peace initiative of the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) is the most effective platform to achieve a permanent resolution of the Sudanese conflict, and recalling that, at the end of the negotiations held in early May 1998 in Nairobi under the aegis of IGAD, the Sudanese Government and the rebel Sudanese People(cid:146)s Liberation Army reached agreement on the principle of a referendum on self-determination, supervised by the international community, to be held after a transitional period, the duration of which is still to be determined, I. deploring the fact that no agreement has yet been reached on a ceasefire, and noting with concern that the fighting resumed as soon as the negotiations ceased, J. aware of the regional consequences which the fighting in Sudan might have and which may well destabilize several African countries, C 167/216 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 1. 6. 98 Thursday 14 May 1998 1. Notes the outcome of the negotiations held in Nairobi under the aegis of IGAD which enshrines the Sudanese Government(cid:146)s recognition of the right of the peoples in southern Sudan to self-determination but regrets that the persistent fundamental divergences between the parties are at present threatening the viability of that agreement; 2. Takes the view that no major advance will be made in the peace process until a ceasefire has been definitively proclaimed; calls, in this context, for an immediate ceasefire and once again urges all parties to the conflict in Sudan to stop using famine to further their political and military ends and to search for and establish a lasting peace that will bring the human suffering in Sudan to an end; 3. Strongly supports the IGAD regional peace initiative and urges all parties to the conflict to participate fully and positively in this peace process, namely in the next round of negotiations in three months(cid:146) time in Addis Ababa; calls in this context on the parties to come to an early agreement on the procedures for the referendum, in particular the region(cid:146)s boundaries and the issue of the separation of religion and state; Calls on the international community, and the EU in particular, to support the IGAD peace process 4. and to assist the Sudanese people in rebuilding their country, particularly in restoring the destroyed farming economy, when peace is finally established; 5. Welcomes the lifting of restrictions on access to areas suffering from food shortages and insists that the Sudanese Government now cooperate fully and unconditionally to ensure the supply of humanitarian aid to afflicted areas and that all the belligerents guarantee free passage for the delivery of aid; urges them not to rescind their decision to lift the plethora of restrictions that they had previously imposed on the supply of humanitarian aid, however the political and military situation may develop; 6. Welcomes the Commission(cid:146)s new allocation of ECU 8,8 million to (cid:145)Echo-Flight(cid:146), since that will guarantee the delivery of humanitarian aid until March 1999, and urges the Commission to step up the aid granted to the NGOs supplying humanitarian aid to Sudanese civilians; 7. Calls on the entire international community to mobilize funds in a consistent fashion in order to respond to the appeal made by the UN Secretary-General for the provision of funds to prevent widespread famine in southern Sudan; 8. Calls on the Sudanese Government to comply with UN Security Council Resolutions 1058 and 1070 by ratifying and implementing the UN Convention against torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading punishment or treatment, safeguarding human rights, respecting the rights of religious minorities, releasing unconditionally all political prisoners and extraditing to Ethiopia the three persons suspected of involvement in the assassination attempt on President Mubarak of Egypt; 9. Insists that sanctions should be maintained against the Sudanese Government, including the suspension of all European Union development aid except for urgent humanitarian assistance, until verifiable improvements in human rights observance by the Sudanese authorities have been made and a comprehensive political process initiated aimed at democratization; 10. Reiterates its call on the IMF and other financial institutions to make the granting of financial assistance conditional on compliance with the demands of the UN and of the international community with regard to human rights and democratization; 11. Proposes to send a delegation from its Committee on Development and Cooperation on a fact-finding mission to Sudan, on the understanding that the members of that delegation would have unrestricted access to all areas of Sudan; Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the Co-Presidents 12. of the ACP-EU Joint Assembly, the Member States of IGAD and the Sudanese Government. 1. 6. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 167/217 Thursday 14 May 1998 11. Mochovce nuclear plant B4-0504, 0509, 0515, 0524, 0536 and 0542/98 Resolution on the planned start-up of the Mochovce nuclear power plant The European Parliament, › having regard to its resolutions of 16 February 1995 on the Mochovce project (1) and 16 March 1995 on the Mochovce nuclear power plant (2), › having regard to its resolution of 20 September 1996 on East-West cooperation activities in energy and nuclear security (3), › having regard to the Commission communication of March 1998 entitled (cid:145)Improving nuclear safety in Central and Eastern Europe and the NIS(cid:146), A. whereas the development of the energy sector in the European Union and the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union is of strategic importance, B. whereas each state has the right to decide for itself on its primary energy, C. whereas in many of these countries nuclear energy plays an important role in domestic fuel supplies; referring in particular, however, to its repeated calls for the highest priority to be given in the production of nuclear power to safety and to the protection of the population from nuclear risks, D. aware of the concern among many people in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and in their neighbouring countries about inadequate safety arrangements in many of the nuclear power stations currently in operation, as well as in many which are still being built, E. having regard to the efforts of the European Union to help the countries of Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union as far as it can to improve safety standards in existing nuclear power plants, F. whereas the European Parliament came to the conclusion in 1995, after an expert hearing, that serious doubts still remained about the future safety of the Mochovce nuclear power plant, particularly in view of the absence of containment, G. whereas the upgrading of a VVER 440-213 reactor at a late stage has never yet been carried out, and whereas the completion of a plant of this kind in Greifswald (Germany) was abandoned on the grounds of excessive cost, H. concerned at the Slovak Government(cid:146)s plans to start up the Mochovce nuclear power plant in a few weeks even though there are still considerable doubts about its safety, I. whereas Slovakia participates in a number of PHARE nuclear safety programmes which concern, inter alia, the safety aspects of the Mochovce power station, and whereas in this context the Commission, at the request of the Slovak licensing authorities, instructed the national board of experts to support the Slovak authorities, J. whereas an OECD study reveals great scope in the Slovak energy economy for improving energy efficiency, and whereas such energy efficiency measures would be the cheapest way of solving the country(cid:146)s energy problems, K. whereas, as an institution representing the citizens of the EU, the European Parliament is within its rights in expressing its opinion, (1) OJ C 56, 6. 3. 1995, p. 116. (2) OJ C 89, 10. 4. 1995, p. 163. (3) OJ C 320, 28. 10. 1996, p. 245. C 167/218 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 1. 6. 98 Thursday 14 May 1998 1. Welcomes the agreement between the Austrian and Slovak Governments which provides for the safety aspects of the plant to be inspected and the results to be evaluated by an independent international panel of experts; 2. Expects the results of this evaluation to be published; Calls on the Slovak Republic to postpone the date for the start-up of the Mochovce power station 3. until the remaining doubts about its safety have been convincingly dispelled by the expert panel; 4. Recalls that the European Parliament has always urged that measures to expand new plants or complete those under construction should always be accompanied by the closure of the least safe nuclear power plants; expects, therefore, that if Mochovce is started up, the Bohunice nuclear power plant will immediately be shut down; Is concerned that the Slovak authorities have failed to provide any clear answers on the problem of 5. nuclear waste storage; Points out that compliance with the safety standards for nuclear power plants of the EU Member 6. States is part of the acquis communautaire; Reaffirms its conviction that in the run-up to EU enlargement there must in no circumstances be any 7. relaxation of nuclear safety standards; 8.

Information and communication policy A4-0115/98 Resolution on the information and communication policy in the European Union The European Parliament, › having regard to its resolution of 17 September 1993 (1) on the information policy of the European Union, › having regard to its resolution of 10 December 1996 on the participation of citizens and social players in the European Union(cid:146)s institutional system (2), › having regard to its resolution of 19 November 1997 on the Amsterdam Treaty (3), › having regard to the 17th declaration on information made by the Member States in the annex to the Treaty on European Union, › having regard to Rule 148 of its Rules of Procedure, › having regard to the report of the Committee on Culture, Youth, Education and the Media and the opinions of the Committee on Budgets, the Committee on Legal Affairs and Citizens(cid:146) Rights and the Committee on Institutional Affairs (A4-0115/98), A. whereas a genuine information and communication policy at the level of the European institutions must promote the objectives assigned to the European Union by the Treaties and awaken European citizens to the cause of European integration; whereas it must be based on the principle of direct dialogue with citizens, B. whereas the communication policy of the European Institutions urgently needs adaptation, a higher profile and greater effectiveness as a (cid:145)conditio sine qua non(cid:146) for obtaining the support of most European citizens for the integration process, C. whereas, in view of the great events approaching the EU in the coming months, measures aimed at information and communication with citizens urgently need to be adapted and stepped up in order to increase awareness of the achievements and advantages of the Union and foster public support for the forthcoming stages of the integration process, D. whereas the average participation in the elections to the European Parliament fell from 65,9% in 1979 to 58,5% in 1994 and whereas an increased participation in the elections in 1999 is absolutely essential, given the growing powers of the European Parliament (extension of codecision powers) and the importance of the political agenda (revision of the treaties, single currency, reform of agricultural and cohesion policies, financing of the Union, enlargement), E. whereas participation in the European elections is hampered by an incomplete and/or negative picture of the European Parliament in the media and public opinion and whereas that can only be changed structurally through complete openness and transparency with regard to the operation of the institution, F. whereas greater involvement by Members of the European Parliament in communication measures on the ground would help to increase public awareness of Parliament and bolster public interest in participating in the 1999 European elections, G. whereas the forthcoming European elections in June 1999, the information campaign of the Amsterdam Treaty and the realization of Economic and Monetary Union force the Union to an intensified communication with the citizens, H. whereas information campaigns cannot consist in developing unilaterally and exclusively a specific opinion on a proposal which does not meet with unanimous agreement, (1) OJ C 268, 4. 10. 1993, p. 192. (2) OJ C 20, 20. 1. 1997, p. 31. (3) OJ C 371, 8. 12. 1997, p. 99. 1. 6. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 167/231 Thursday 14 May 1998 I. whereas large sections of the population, and in particular the least favoured, are either poorly or inadequately informed about the action and the establishment of the Union; whereas in these groups there are negative feelings about Europe and whereas they should be a priority target group in any new communications policy, J. whereas the negative feelings are strengthened by the dramatic level of unemployment and social exclusion, the lack of prospects for the future, the problems concerning the security of citizens and the negative experience of the role of the EU in the world; whereas these negative feelings lead to new forms of nationalism and intolerance, whereby the European project is called into question, K. whereas surveys have shown that women and young people in particular are very sceptical about the European Union, L. whereas the complex and opaque decision-making procedures in the European Union are not such as to facilitate communication with the citizens and whereas even the best communication strategies do little to counteract it, M. whereas the information and communication policy should be consistent and effective; for this purpose, it should be geared to the realities, demands and, even, constraints which characterize the European Union and the modern-day world; to this end, it should be provided with a body that can give it appropriate strategy guidelines, ensuring that the messages conveyed are clear, unambiguous and easily accessible, N. whereas the Commission and the European Parliament have both common and separate objectives for communication and whereas, depending on requirements, a common or individual communication policy must be developed; whereas however, this intensified cooperation should leave each institution sufficient autonomy to maintain the profile of its own roles and responsibilities, O. whereas good communication starts with clear use of language, including in the treaties, legislative texts, communications, reports, etc. ; whereas each European institution must always take this into account, P. recognizing that, in order to bring the Union closer to the people, it is essential for them to be able to use their own language and whereas, therefore, a proper information and communication policy should take due account of the multilingualism which is an integral part of the EU, Q. whereas the transparency of funding, the plurality of opinions and objectivity are essential guarantees of the credibility of any information policy, R. whereas the European Union(cid:146)s information policy cannot make up for the lack of transparency and democracy in the institutions and decision-making procedures; whereas the complexity and non-transparency of procedures constitutes an unsurmountable obstacle to communication between the institutions and citizens; regrets the ineffectiveness of the provisions adopted in Amsterdam to remedy this state of affairs, S. whereas the enlargement of the European Union and the problems raised by the proposals made by the Commission in (cid:145)Agenda 2000(cid:146) will create an additional demand on information in both the Member states of the Union and the candidate member countries, T. whereas, in this context, it is the job of Parliament › more than any other institution › to give its backing, as an Assembly made up of representatives who are directly elected by the general public, to the decisions taken by the Assembly and its constituent bodies in the course of the parliamentary term, U. whereas the definition of a better European communication policy must take into account the new instruments offered by the information society, the possibility of inter-active use of these instruments and the development of an electronic democracy, V. whereas the impending change to digital is likely to reinforce television(cid:146)s primacy as a source of information to the citizen, W. whereas information and communication activities should not be considered as a policy by themselves but a support for the Union policies and thus, the Union should finance methods and instruments in relation to their purpose, C 167/232 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 1. 6. 98 Thursday 14 May 1998 X. whereas the following factors contributed to the lack of success of the European communication policy: › insufficient financial means, › insufficient human resources, both quantitatively and qualitatively speaking, › lack of co-ordination between the EU institutions, › lack of co-ordination within individual institutions, › insufficient decentralization towards the level of the Member States, › insufficient co-operation between the EU institutions and the Member States, › lack of common strategy, › too much information, not enough communication, › policy is too budget driven and is not sufficiently driven by the fact that communication should be the number one priority in the policy of European integration, › lack of use of the new media outlets, › execution of information policy is not sufficiently citizen orientated, › either structural or occasional lack of transparency and openness in the institutions, › absence of a clear policy on relations with the media, which is partly the result of inadequate and occasionally counter-productive reactions on the part of the European Parliament(cid:146)s appropriate bodies, › failure to take sufficient account of the social dimension of European integration, › failure to take sufficient account of the need for citizens to participate in European integration, › information on the European Union(cid:146)s activities is too often couched in incomprehensible language which is a barrier to public interest and understanding, Y. whereas the information programme for European citizens (Prince), developed at the initiative of Parliament, creates a new system involving Parliament, the Commission and the governments of the Member States and the current experiment should be continually assessed, Z. having regard to the experience acquired over the last two years as regards the coordination of information policy by the interinstitutional working party in the context of Prince, AA. whereas an effective information policy must reach out to all social structures; whereas it should not be confined to European or national administrative and political structures and whereas it must involve local authorities, civil society and education, AB. whereas active and pluralist information is an element of the democratic debate in Europe and on Europe; whereas it must reflect the diversity of the opinions expressed in the European Union; whereas it must not be confined to presenting a (cid:145)single point of view(cid:146) on Europe; whereas it must not eliminate opposition between institutions or between political forces, and whereas a democratic communication policy must be guided by the principle of open legislation and must make it its aim to enable citizens to engage in an active dialogue with the European legislative process, AC. whereas in this context close contacts with the regional media play an important role in view of the wide coverage, in particular through radio and the printed media, AD. whereas the Committee of the Regions should also be involved in the regional communication and distribution of information, 1. 6. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 167/233 Thursday 14 May 1998 AE. whereas interinstitutional cooperation with regard to information on Europe was initiated by the Budgetary Authority in the framework of the 1995, 1996 and 1997 budgetary procedures; whereas in particular a Working Party on Information Measures was set up under the 1996 budget; whereas this structure was confirmed by the adoption of the 1997 budget, under which a Working Party on Ongoing Information Activities and a Working Party on Priority Information Measures were set up; whereas this structure has been continued in the 1998 budget, AF. whereas through this resolution interinstitutional cooperation on European information should be developed and clarified, in the framework of the Working Party on Ongoing Information Activities, Concerning the European Commission Considers that the Commission must ensure co-ordination between General Direction X and the 1. other general Directions; Considers that the Commission must make better use of the audio-visual possibilities and satellite 2. services (EBS); 3. Points out the need to implement the use of multimedia applications both in public and private places and at home, with a view to improving the dissemination of information on Europe through these interactive services; 4. Recommends that the Commission carry out information work in schools and stresses the need for its publications to be appropriate to the age and maturity of the pupils concerned, while respecting the plurality of views on and proposals for European integration; Stresses the need in general to match the information made available more closely to the main target 5. groups such as the press, educational establishments, industry and private citizens; 6. Suggests that the Commission carry out thorough feasibility studies on European communication policy in order to ensure that European citizens are provided with quality information, targeted where possible, which reflects their concerns and gives them a positive image of the European Union; in this context, specific campaigns aimed in particular at young people, women or those in a precarious situation in society would be particularly welcome; 7. Believes that the use and the diffusion of the polls made by the Eurobarometer, mainly the polls concerning specific targets and periodic flash reports should be implemented with the aim of helping the information policy and the evaluation of EU common policies; 8. Calls on the Commission, in accordance with the guidelines set out by the Milan European Council, to take the necessary initiatives to ensure, in cooperation with the governments of the Member States, the general celebration throughout the Union of Europe Day on 9 May; 9. Suggests the Commission should create specific information for decision makers; Considers that all information programmes and initiatives need to be regularly assessed for 10. efficiency and cost effectiveness; Considers that, with regard to support and action programmes, the selection of projects should be 11. more transparent and the reasons for the choice should be clearer to those who submit the projects; 12. Calls on the Commission in all its official documents, wherever possible, to use simple and clear language, and also for it to submit as soon as possible a proposal enabling the fundamental right of public access to legislative documents to be implemented; Recalls that, in order to use the financial resources allocated to information more efficiently and 13. effectively, both institutions have agreed on basic common principles which are: › decentralization; › interinstitutional cooperation; › mobility and rotation of staff at external offices; › intensifying contacts with citizens; › value for money; C 167/234 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 1. 6. 98 Thursday 14 May 1998 Concerning cooperation between Parliament and the Commission Respects the autonomy of the two institutions given their respective institutional roles and 14. responsibilities, while emphasizing that coordination should take place and, where appropriate, activities should be integrated; 15. Notes that the lack of a homogenous European public opinion and the existence of large political, cultural and socio-psychological differences in the structure and methodology of the media in the various Member States, which are reflected inter alia in a highly divergent and often sceptical general attitude towards the European Institutions, make it necessary for there to be greater diversification, and less centralized direction, of the Commission(cid:146)s and Parliament(cid:146)s central information policy at national and regional level; 16 Calls on the Commission, and undertakes itself, to move as rapidly as possible towards the combined use, wherever possible, of the infrastructure of inter alia the audiovisual services and the press centres of the European Parliament and the Commission in order to achieve the maximum effectiveness and efficiency of these activities; 17. Calls on the Commission, in order to ensure such cooperation, to submit by 30 September 1998, pursuant to the relevant Treaty provisions, a legislative proposal which taking into account the following guidelines: › within the framework of the Working Party on Ongoing Information Activities, the establishment of regular coordination meetings between the Vice-President of Parliament with responsibility for information, the chairmen of Parliament(cid:146)s committees on Budgets and Culture and the Director- General of Parliament(cid:146)s DG III and the Commissioner with responsibility for information the Director-General of the Commission(cid:146)s DG X; › the Working Party on Ongoing Information Activities is to be responsible for the co-ordination of the information and communication activities of the European Commission and the European Parliament as well as the follow-up of the combined activities of both institutions. The Working Party is to meet at least once every three months, assess the activities on a regular basis, propose the appropriate guidelines for their development and report to Parliament; › all communication activities directed towards the general public, concerning general information on the functioning of the institutions and the contents of policies adopted, shall be executed, whenever possible, as a joint operation of the European Parliament and the Commission; › all communication activities directed towards the press and those concerning activities of the two institutions as regards their specific institutional responsibilities, will be executed › as at present › by the separate information departments of the two institutions; however, both institutions commit themselves to inform each other of their respective initiatives. In the various information campaigns and seminars organized by the (cid:145)European Union Houses(cid:146) in the Member States MEPs should be encouraged to participate; › › › › the Commission and the European Parliament to recognize the need for co-ordination of all communication activities; the activities of DG X and DG III will be executed in a decentralized way whenever possible and appropriate, i. e. at the level of the offices in the Member States, using, there appropriate, the various official languages in the Member States, as well as via the network of the different centres (Info Points, CDE, Carrefours ruraux, etc). The budget for decentralized actions should be increased on a percentage basis yearly; it is necessary to house together the national and regional offices of the Commission and the European Parliament with the aim of building (cid:145)European Union Houses(cid:146) in all the Member States at national and eventually at regional level, and to permit the use of the facilities of these (cid:145)Houses(cid:146) by organizations dealing with matters of European integration; the (cid:145)European Union Houses(cid:146) facilitates (cid:145)one stop shopping(cid:146) for the European citizen seeking information on EU activities, and detailed information on the execution of the specific responsibilities of both institutions. The (cid:145)European Union Houses(cid:146) should be easily accessible and visible to the public; › Parliament and the Commission must examine, in the framework of the Working Party on Ongoing Information Activities, the possibility of developing initiatives in new media outlets: a good example of a common initiative is the proposal made by the European Parliament on the (cid:145)me·moires audiovisuelles de l(cid:146)Europe(cid:146); 1. 6. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 167/235 Thursday 14 May 1998 › Parliament and the Commission must promote, in the framework of the Working Party on Ongoing Information Activities, the production of television programmes about the activities of the European Institutions which could be broadcasted by Euronews and other broadcasting media. Some joint audiovisual actions should be envisaged as it would be less costly and more efficient, and also of great symbolic importance; › Parliament and the Commission must consider, in the framework of the Working Party on Ongoing Information Activities, a better use of EBS (Europe by Satellite) by journalists, broadcasting organizations and NGOs; in particular, it should consider facilitating a public service network perceived as credible and independent, able to reach a significant proportion of the European viewing audience and to emulate, in Europe, the success of C-Span in the United States. EBS might supply third parties with equipment to receive its programmes; › › it is necessary for Parliament and the Commission to encourage, in the framework of the Working Party on Ongoing Information Activities, the development of the audio-visual sector, through local and regional channels and cooperation with European organizations as the EBU (European Broadcasting Union), the international press agencies, through the production of EP audio-visual and radio programmes, as well as through the use of the Internet and CD-ROM in the framework of the (cid:145)CIVIS(cid:146) structure created by the DG III of the European Parliament and containing the WEB Europarl, the Electronic Mail Europe and the (cid:145)chat(cid:146); the decentralised and local presence of the EU institutions close to the citizens should be strengthened by allocating increased and adequate resources to networks such as the Europe Info Points, if necessary by reconsidering the amount of the budget dedicated to the national European Union Houses in the capitals of the member states; a detailed breakdown of the information policy budget, including all decentralised actions will be provided to the Working Party on Ongoing Information Activities, and be publicly available; Stresses the need to involve the others EU institutions, mainly the Council but also the Committee 18. of the Regions, in the co-operation between Parliament and the Commission; Concerning the European Parliament Considers that the Parliament, as the budget authority, should investigate the appropriate amount of 19. funds necessary to real an information policy in conformity with its targets; Considers that in its own decision-making process the European Parliament should have maximum 20. transparency as its starting point and that it must repeatedly urge the other institutions to take maximum transparency into account; 21. With reference to the initiatives which have already been undertaken and the results obtained in recent years through Parliament(cid:146)s attempts to increase its profile and assert its political, legislative and budgetary role, considers that these efforts must be intensified in the coming months with particular regard to the practical implementation of Parliament(cid:146)s new powers as laid down in the Amsterdam Treaty, and also to the 1999 European elections; Considers that the visitor groups are an excellent means of coming closer to the citizens. Regards it 22. appropriate to study where improvements can be made in the quality of the reception and the programmes given to them and thus improve the effectiveness of the expenses made for visitor groups; Considers that Parliament should hold an annual debate on the policy pursued by its own services 23. on the basis of a strategic concept, a debate based on a report by the Committee on Culture, Youth, Education and the Media; 24. Recommends that the existing arrangements for refunding to broadcasting organizations the costs of using facilities (Satellite and microwaves links) should be simplified for reports concerning Parliament; 25. Believing it to be important that the work of the European Parliament be brought close to the citizen in particular by television, notes that the members of the European Parliament can use audiovisual facilities during part-sessions in Strasbourg and Brussels and also during Committee meetings in Brussels; 26. Considers that the Members of the European Parliament must have access to appropriate information materials (video cassettes, brochures, maps etc. ) when they are asked to lecture on the European Union or a specific topic of European policy; C 167/236 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 1. 6. 98 Thursday 14 May 1998 27. Stresses that it is essential that the information budget in 1999, to promote European values and democracy during the year dedicated to the European elections and to promote participation in that year(cid:146)s European elections, be increased; Undertakes, and calls on its Members, to use whenever possible simple and clear language in all 28. official documents; 29. Considers that negative and/or incomplete reporting in the media is not counteracted through defensive measures such as the (cid:145)fiche d(cid:146)alerte(cid:146) system but that such reporting must be anticipated by greater transparency, in relation to both the internal and external environment, in all aspects of Parliament(cid:146)s activities; 30. Considers that Parliament has nothing to hide and that therefore a professional but flexible relationship must be developed with the media and with journalists on the basis of maximum openness, taking into account, however, the right to privacy of Members and political groups; Concerning the budgetary aspects 31. Underlines its responsibilities as budgetary authority for the use of the common funding in relation with the Union(cid:146)s political priorities; welcomes the initiatives taken so far to get closer to the citizen, through close monitoring of communication and information actions; 32. Recommends that, during the 1999 budgetary procedure, the two institutions should agree an action programme and a global financial envelope for support activities of the Union(cid:146)s priority policies, and for support to encourage citizens(cid:146) participation in the European Parliament elections in 1999; * * * Instructs its Bureau to take any measures necessary to follow up the recommendations in this 33. resolution; 34. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council and the Commission. 1. 6. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 167/237 Thursday 14 May 1998 ATTENDANCE REGISTER 14 May
