La Comisi(cid:243)n destacaba el hecho de que el impacto de esta l(cid:237)nea elØctrica es antag(cid:243)nico a la construcci(cid:243)n de una central elØctrica nuclear, ya que el cable permite el transporte de electricidad desde Espaæa hacia Marruecos, con lo que la construcci(cid:243)n de una central nuclear con una capacidad de producci(cid:243)n equivalente no ser(cid:237)a rentable. La capacidad de una central nuclear es, generalmente, de 600 Mw como m(cid:237)nimo. Las centrales nucleares muy «importantes» tienen capacidades de 1000 Mw o mÆs. EstÆ claro que una central nuclear debe recibir las mÆximas garant(cid:237)as relativas al cumplimiento de las normas de seguridad. Esta tarea incumbe al OIEA (Organismo Internacional de Energ(cid:237)a At(cid:243)mica). Es cierto que la Direcci(cid:243)n de Seguridad de las Instalaciones Nucleares en Francia aporta tambiØn su experiencia tØcnica. La interconexi(cid:243)n permite una mejor utilizaci(cid:243)n de las capacidades disponibles. A la Comisi(cid:243)n no le corresponde, en caso de que se instalara una central nuclear en Marruecos, efectuar los controles atribuidos a otros organismos. Por lo que se refiere al uso del gas, parece que estÆn en curso negociaciones entre Marruecos y Argelia a fin de utilizarlo para satisfacer las futuras necesidades energØticas marroqu(cid:237)es. Efectivamente, parece que el Gobierno francØs estÆ asociado al Gobierno marroqu(cid:237) en este proyecto. El proyecto de Centro de Investigaci(cid:243)n Nuclear en Maamora no es un proyecto confidencial. Las primeras obras de construcci(cid:243)n comenzaron en agosto de 1999 y estÆ previsto que el Centro se dedique exclusivamente a la investigaci(cid:243)n para usos civiles, sobre todo en los Æmbitos de la salud y la alimentaci(cid:243)n. Obviamente, el proyecto no es competencia de la Comisi(cid:243)n, que, por lo tanto, no estÆ en condiciones de responder a las preguntas de Su Seæor(cid:237)a sobre sus caracter(cid:237)sticas espec(cid:237)ficas. La Comisi(cid:243)n siempre ha apoyado los esfuerzos de las Naciones Unidas para alcanzar una soluci(cid:243)n refrendaria en el SÆhara Occidental. Se propone seguir en el futuro la misma pol(cid:237)tica o cualquier otra acci(cid:243)n que decidan los (cid:243)rganos de las Naciones Unidas con vistas a una soluci(cid:243)n pac(cid:237)fica a la cuesti(cid:243)n del SÆhara Occidental.

text: 3. 10. 2000 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 280 E/105 Answer given by Mrs Wallstr(cid:246)m on behalf of the Commission (4 February 2000) Civil engineering works in particular affect the groundwater in a number of different ways, but normally only temporarily. Following extensive consultations, it has been concluded that a derogation from the general ban on discharges into the groundwater should be allowed for many of these effects. For this reason, both the amended proposal of the Commission of 17 June 1999 for a European Parliament and Council Directive establishing a framework for Community action in the field of water policy (1) and the common position of the Council of 20 October 1999 on a European Parliament and Council Directive establishing a framework for Community action in the field of water policy 9085/3/99 (2) allow the Member States to grant derogations in such cases. Since the Member States and their regions display variations in terms of geology, hydrology and water resources, it makes sense to leave this question to the Member States, but to lay down the criteria in Community legislation. The Commission does not share the view that materials in suspension consisting of natural clay minerals are in themselves harmful to the environment. Chemically and biologically inert materials in suspension can also cause considerable harm to the environmental quality of the water, e. g. by covering the biocoenoses of the microfauna and microflora in surface waters and by damaging spawning grounds. If Parliament and the Council adopt the proposal for a Directive as described above, it will be for the Member States to decide whether and to what extent In its opinion (first reading) of 11 February 1999 on a Directive establishing a framework for Community action in the field of water policy (3), Parliament attached particular importance to the criteria for derogations. The possibility for Member States to grant derogations from the prohibition on direct discharges into the groundwater in this and some other cases is contained in Article 11(3)(g) of the Council(cid:146)s common position. they apply the derogations.

(2000/C 280 E/108) WRITTEN QUESTION P-2690/99 by Thierry La Perriere (UEN) to the Council (3 January 2000) Subject: EU-Turkish relations, human rights, and Christian minorities In the negotiations on implementation of the Customs Union and Turkey(cid:146)s application to join the European Union, the Council is focusing especially on the situation of the Kurds. There are other minorities in Turkey. Christians make up quite a substantial portion of its population. In the past, Christian Turks have suffered human rights violations on a massive scale, and their situation is still extremely precarious. Can the Council say whether, when conducting the ongoing negotiations with Turkey, focusing on the situation of the Christian minorities? it is likewise Reply (13 March 2000) The Helsinki European Council decided that Turkey is a candidate State destined to join the Union on the basis of the same criteria as applied to the other candidate States. Compliance with the Copenhagen political criteria is a prerequisite for the opening of any accession negotiations. The Council underlines that stability of institutions guaranteeing human rights and respect for and protection of minorities is one of the Copenhagen political criteria. This naturally includes the Christian minorities. C 280 E/106 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 3. 10. 2000 According to the Helsinki European Council conclusions, building on the existing European strategy, Turkey, like other candidate States, will benefit from a pre-accession strategy to stimulate and support its reforms. This will include enhanced political dialogue, with emphasis on progressing towards fulfilling the political criteria for accession with particular reference inter alia to the issue of human rights. This too naturally includes the Christian minorities. (2000/C 280 E/109) WRITTEN QUESTION P-2693/99 by Lucio Manisco (GUE/NGL) to the Council (3 January 2000) Subject: The Russian Federation(cid:146)s ultimatum to the city of Grozny The whole world has condemned the ruthless ultimatum given by the Russian Federation(cid:146)s political and military authorities to the 50 000 inhabitants and the resistance groups in the city of Grozny. However, the only reactions to this ultimatum on the part of the Presidency, the High Representative for the CFSP and the Commission have been verbal condemnations and expressions of concern, warnings and the (cid:146)studying(cid:146) of possible counter-measures. The changes to the terms of the ultimatum made on 7 December by the Russian authorities do not affect the threat of extermination faced by tens of thousands of civilians because it is virtually impossible to evacuate them under the bombardments. Does not the Council believe that actions speak louder than words and that it should suspend, temporarily but immediately, the partnership and cooperation agreements entered into with Moscow as well as any form of direct or indirect aid to the Russian Federation? Reply (13 March 2000) The European Council on 10 and 11 December in Helsinki strongly condemned the intense bombard- ments of Chechen cities, the threat levelled at the residents of Grozny and the ultimatum set by the Russian military commanders. In the light of the situation in Chechnya, the European Council decided that the implementation of the Common Strategy on Russia should be reviewed, the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement be partly suspended and the trade provisions applied strictly. On TACIS, the European Council asked the budgetary authority to consider the transfer of some funds from TACIS to the humanitarian assistance. Moreover, financing from the budget for 2000 should be limited to priority areas, including human rights, the rule of law, support for the civil society and nuclear safety. it has to be kept in mind that many of the cooperation programmes under the Common However, Strategy and the PCA are in the strong interest of the European Union, e. g. on nuclear safety, disarmament and non-proliferation, as well as democratic institution building and civil society. These decisions of the European Council were notified to Russia in a letter from Prime Minister Lipponen and Secretary-General/High Representative Solana to Prime Minister Putin on 11 December. On 24 January 2000 the General Affairs Council invited the Commission to re-focus the Tacis 2000 programme on core areas directly promoting democratic values, and to transfer uncommitted balances to humanitarian assistance and promoting networking in civil society, as well as to suspend consideration of the possible extension of additional GSP preferences for Russia. It expressed its concern about the increasing number of trade disputes originating in infringements by Russia of the PCA as well as sectoral agreements and noted the Commission(cid:146)s intention to bring forward counter-measures against the Russian tax on exports of ferrous scrap. It invited the Commission to press ahead with similar action in other areas of EU concern

text: 8. 8. 2000 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 225 E/169 (2000/C 225 E/186) WRITTEN QUESTION P-2569/99 by Luisa Morgantini (GUE/NGL) to the Commission (16 December 1999) Subject: Crisis in the SISMA (Societ(cid:224) Industrie Siderurgiche Meccaniche) undertaking in Villadossola, Piedmont fifty years, For the last industrial undertaking in the Ossola Valley because of its high production capacity, the fact that it specialised in the production high-quality special steels, and the numerical strength of its workforce. the SISMA undertaking in Villadossola was the most important From 1947 to 1980 the undertaking(cid:146)s employment policy was one of expansion, so that it ultimately employed 1 800 people. In 1989, the undertaking was taken over by the Leali Group. In 1993, the Leali Group sold the hydroelectric power plants. The sale of those plants, which produced low-cost electric power, coincided with the start of a management policy which led to the dismantling of the undertaking. Nevertheless, a night shift and working on public holidays were introduced so as to save on the cost of electricity. At the same time, Dario Leali informed the local authorities of the commune of Villadossola that he also wished to take account of other factors affecting the steel industry and that he did not intend to put the SISMA undertaking in Villadossola on the list of undertakings to be restructured as provided for in the European plan for the restructuring of the steel industry. He nevertheless confirmed that the undertaking would be able to continue production In October 1999, the Leali Group announced that as it did not have the 200 thousand million lire necessary for the restructuring of the Villadossola undertaking, the latter would cease production on 31 October 1999. As a result of this unexpected decision, 320 workers immediately lost their jobs, but the Leali Group still owns all the production plants in Villadossola. It also appears that the Leali Group received aid from the Regional Fund and /or the Funds for the conversion of undertakings and /or the Funds for the restructuring of the steel industry. Can the Commission provide the following information: 1. What was the amount of that aid? 2. How did the Leali Group use that aid? 3. What checks does the Commission carry out with regard to aid which has been granted? Answer given by Mr Barnier on behalf of the Commission (17 January 2000) According to the information forwarded at this stage by the Italian authorities to the Commission, it appears that the (cid:145)Gruppo Leali(cid:146) has not received aid from the European Regional Development Fund. The Commission has, however, requested additional information from the Italian authorities and will pass it on to the Honourable Member. (2000/C 225 E/187) WRITTEN QUESTION E-2571/99 by W. G. van Velzen (PPE-DE) to the Council (3 January 2000) Subject: Secretariat of the Energy Charter The Dutch newspaper NRC Handelsblad reported on 20 November that the Netherlands Government is concerned at in Brussels. A year ago the management consultancy firm of Arthur D. Little issued a report on the management of the Secretariat at the request of the then chairman of the Governmental Council of the Energy Charter, Mr Rutten. the Energy Charter Secretariat the poor management at C 225 E/170 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 8. 8. 2000 1. What progress has been made on the Energy Charter Protocol? Is the Council aware of the Arthur D. Little study on the operation of the Secretariat of the Energy 2. Charter? 3. What is the status of this report, and when can it be made available to the Member States and the European Parliament? Is it true that the Finnish Presidency has requested Mr Sch(cid:252)tterle, Secretary-General of the Energy 4. Charter, to communicate the report to the Member States? 5. Is it true that Germany considers it inappropriate to publish this report? Reply (28 February 2000) The Energy Charter Treaty and the Energy Charter Protocol on Energy Efficiency and Related Environ- mental Aspects were signed in 1994. In accordance with Article 44 of the ECT, the Treaty and the Protocol entered into force on 16 April 1998, i. e. on the 90th day after the date of deposit of the 30th instrument of ratification with the Portuguese Republic, acting as depositary of the Treaty. At this stage, 40 countries have ratified the Energy Charter. As far as the European Union is concerned, all the Member States and the European Communities have ratified it. With regard to the report drawn up by the management consultancy firm Arthur D. Little on the operation of the Secretariat of the Energy Charter, this report falls within the internal management remit of that organisation. It is therefore not for the Council to comment on whether and when the report mentioned could be made available to the Member States and the European Parliament. However, in connection with the preparation of the last session of the Energy Charter Conference which was held in Brussels on 7 December 1999, the Finnish Presidency did express the desire to have this report. It should be noted that the Conference unanimously decided to appoint a new Secretary-General to replace Mr Sch(cid:252)tterle. The person in question is Ms Ria Kemper, who took up her duties on 1 January 2000. (2000/C 225 E/188) WRITTEN QUESTION E-2573/99 by Mark Watts (PSE) to the Commission (11 January 2000) Subject: Commission reports on veterinary missions carried out in Belgium and Ireland On 22 February 1999, the Commission published a Mission Report on a veterinary mission to Belgium. The Report revealed serious breaches in Belgium of Council Directive 91/628/EEC (1) on the protection of animals during transport, including the transport of unfit animals and the acceptance by the Belgian authorities of route plans for long journeys for pigs, even though the plans made no provision for the pigs to be rested, fed and watered after 24 hours(cid:146) travel, as required by Directive 91/628/EEC. On 18 August 1999, the Commission published a Mission Report on a veterinary mission to Ireland. This revealed serious breaches in Ireland of Council Directive 91/628/EEC. What steps is the Commission taking to require the Belgian and Irish authorities to ensure compliance with the requirements of Council Directive 91/628/EEC? (1) OJ L 340, 11. 12. 1991, p. 17

Pu(cid:242) la Commissione far sapere inoltre quante richieste sono state inoltrate ai sensi dell(cid:146)articolo 89 quante sono state accolte precisando per ciascuna di esse la sanzione comminata, il grado, la responsabilit(cid:224) e le mansioni del funzionario al momento dell(cid:146)addebito? Risposta data dal sig. Kinnock a nome della Commissione (3 febbraio 2000) La Commissione trasmette direttamente all(cid:146)Onorevole parlamentare e al Segretariato generale del Parla- mento le informazioni dettagliate sulle procedure disciplinari che hanno dato luogo all(cid:146)adozione, da parte dell(cid:146)autorit(cid:224) che ha il potere di nomina, di provvedimenti disciplinari nel periodo tra il gennaio 1998 e il novembre 1999 compreso. Per quanto riguarda i provvedimenti provvisori adottati nei confronti di funzionari oggetto di procedure disciplinari, il regolamento dei funzionari prevede la possibile sospensione di un funzionario al quale venga addebitata una colpa grave. Dal gennaio 1998 in poi sono stati sospesi quattro funzionari, dei quali solamente uno era ancora sospeso al 30 novembre 1999. Per undici di queste procedure disciplinari non Ł stata consultata la commissione di disciplina. Per quanto concerne le spese legali rimborsate dalla Commissione in relazione a un procedimento disciplinare (articolo 10 dell(cid:146)allegato IX dello Statuto), nel 1998 non vi Ł stato alcun rimborso e nel 1999 tali spese sono ammontate a 141. 342 €. Nel periodo dal gennaio 1998 al novembre 1999 un funzionario ha chiesto che venisse tolta dal suo fascicolo personale la menzione della sanzione disciplinare comminata (retrocessione di scatto), secondo quanto prevede l(cid:146)articolo 89 dello statuto dei funzionari. La richiesta Ł stata accolta dall(cid:146)autorit(cid:224) che ha poteri di nomina. (2000/C 280 E/080) INTERROGAZIONE SCRITTA E-2593/99 di Daniel Hannan (PPE-DE) al Consiglio (3 gennaio 2000) Oggetto: Codice di condotta sulla vendita di armi La disposizione operativa 4 del codice di condotta dell(cid:146)UE sulle esportazioni di armi stabilisce che gli Stati membri debbano preservare il carattere confidenziale delle consultazioni effettuate a titolo di tale codice. 3. 10. 2000 IT Gazzetta ufficiale delle Comunit(cid:224) europee C 280 E/79 Il governo britannico interpreta tale disposizione come comprendente anche gli esiti di tali consultazioni (Relazione ufficiale, 25 ottobre 1999, colonna 738). Il Consiglio nel suo insieme o gli Stati membri a titolo individuale seguono pratiche differenti in merito alla divulgazione dei risultati in questione? In caso affermativo di quali pratiche si tratta? Esiste un elenco delle armi esportate da un secondo Stato membro dopo che il primo ha rifiutato una licenza di esportazione? Risposta (13 marzo 2000) Spetta agli Stati membri decidere come interpretare le disposizioni in materia di riservatezza previste dal codice di condotta, tenendo conto del fatto che, in caso di rifiuto, le notifiche trasmesse conformemente al codice dovrebbero rimanere riservate e che la natura necessariamente bilaterale del processo di consulta- zione dev(cid:146)essere rispettata. Non spetta al Consiglio pronunciarsi sulle pratiche degli Stati membri al riguardo.

I suoi attori esercitano funzioni ufficiali nella comunit(cid:224) europea? Hanno una qualche influenza sulla definizione delle politiche comunitarie? Risposta data dal sig. Schreyer in nome della Commissione (7 febbraio 2000) Il Corpus juris (1) non Ł un libro verde e non costituisce un documento della Commissione. Si tratta per(cid:242) di uno studio effettuato su richiesta del Parlamento e sotto l(cid:146)egida della Commissione. La relazione di sintesi del settembre 1999 sul seguito del Corpus juris Ł stata trasmessa in maniera informale alla commissione per il controllo dei bilanci del Parlamento (2). L(cid:146)elaborazione del Corpus juris Ł stata affidata ad un gruppo di otto ricercatori indipendenti, nessuno dei quali ha esercitato funzioni ufficiali nelle Comunit(cid:224) durante la realizzazione dello studio. Tramite le idee esposte nel Corpus juris e nella relazione che ad esso ha fatto seguito, la Commissione, come peraltro il Parlamento, intende far maturare la riflessione delle istituzioni sulle eventuali proposte di nuove soluzioni istituzionali, anche in vista della conferenza intergovernativa.

text: C 280 E/106 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 3. 10. 2000 According to the Helsinki European Council conclusions, building on the existing European strategy, Turkey, like other candidate States, will benefit from a pre-accession strategy to stimulate and support its reforms. This will include enhanced political dialogue, with emphasis on progressing towards fulfilling the political criteria for accession with particular reference inter alia to the issue of human rights. This too naturally includes the Christian minorities. (2000/C 280 E/109) WRITTEN QUESTION P-2693/99 by Lucio Manisco (GUE/NGL) to the Council (3 January 2000) Subject: The Russian Federation(cid:146)s ultimatum to the city of Grozny The whole world has condemned the ruthless ultimatum given by the Russian Federation(cid:146)s political and military authorities to the 50 000 inhabitants and the resistance groups in the city of Grozny. However, the only reactions to this ultimatum on the part of the Presidency, the High Representative for the CFSP and the Commission have been verbal condemnations and expressions of concern, warnings and the (cid:146)studying(cid:146) of possible counter-measures. The changes to the terms of the ultimatum made on 7 December by the Russian authorities do not affect the threat of extermination faced by tens of thousands of civilians because it is virtually impossible to evacuate them under the bombardments. Does not the Council believe that actions speak louder than words and that it should suspend, temporarily but immediately, the partnership and cooperation agreements entered into with Moscow as well as any form of direct or indirect aid to the Russian Federation? Reply (13 March 2000) The European Council on 10 and 11 December in Helsinki strongly condemned the intense bombard- ments of Chechen cities, the threat levelled at the residents of Grozny and the ultimatum set by the Russian military commanders. In the light of the situation in Chechnya, the European Council decided that the implementation of the Common Strategy on Russia should be reviewed, the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement be partly suspended and the trade provisions applied strictly. On TACIS, the European Council asked the budgetary authority to consider the transfer of some funds from TACIS to the humanitarian assistance. Moreover, financing from the budget for 2000 should be limited to priority areas, including human rights, the rule of law, support for the civil society and nuclear safety. it has to be kept in mind that many of the cooperation programmes under the Common However, Strategy and the PCA are in the strong interest of the European Union, e. g. on nuclear safety, disarmament and non-proliferation, as well as democratic institution building and civil society. These decisions of the European Council were notified to Russia in a letter from Prime Minister Lipponen and Secretary-General/High Representative Solana to Prime Minister Putin on 11 December. On 24 January 2000 the General Affairs Council invited the Commission to re-focus the Tacis 2000 programme on core areas directly promoting democratic values, and to transfer uncommitted balances to humanitarian assistance and promoting networking in civil society, as well as to suspend consideration of the possible extension of additional GSP preferences for Russia. It expressed its concern about the increasing number of trade disputes originating in infringements by Russia of the PCA as well as sectoral agreements and noted the Commission(cid:146)s intention to bring forward counter-measures against the Russian tax on exports of ferrous scrap. It invited the Commission to press ahead with similar action in other areas of EU concern

A Comissªo sublinha o facto de o impacto dessa linha elØctrica contrariar a constru(cid:231)ªo de uma central elØctrica nuclear dado que esse cabo permite o transporte de electricidade de Espanha para Marrocos, tornando assim anti-econ(cid:243)mica qualquer constru(cid:231)ªo de uma central nuclear com uma capacidade de produ(cid:231)ªo equivalente. A capacidade de uma central nuclear Ø geralmente de, pelo menos, 600 Mw. As centrais nucleares muito «importantes» tŒm capacidades por vezes superiores a 1000 Mw.

text: 3. 10. 2000 FR Journal officiel des CommunautØs europØennes C 280 E/105 RØponse donnØe par Mme Wallstr(cid:246)m au nom de la Commission (4 fØvrier 2000) Les travaux de construction sont un exemple de travaux qui entra(cid:238)nent frØquemment une altØration, gØnØralement passagŁre, de l(cid:146)Øquilibre hydrique en sous-sol. AprŁs vaste consultation, il a ØtØ conclu que pour de nombreuses atteintes de ce type, il devrait exister une possibilitØ de dØroger (cid:224) l(cid:146)interdiction gØnØrale de rejet dans les eaux souterraines. C(cid:146)est pourquoi, tant la proposition modifiØe de la Commission du 17 juin 1999 d(cid:146)une directive du Parlement europØen et du Conseil instituant un cadre pour l(cid:146)action communautaire dans le domaine de l(cid:146)eau (1), que la position commune du Conseil du 20 octobre 1999 en la matiŁre no 9085/3/99 (2), prØvoient la possibilitØ pour les (cid:201)tats membres d(cid:146)autoriser des dØrogations dans de tels cas. (cid:201)tant donnØ la diversitØ des conditions gØologiques, hydrologiques et de gestion des eaux dans les (cid:201)tats membres et leurs rØgions, il convient de laisser aux (cid:201)tats membres le soin de rØgler cette question, en rØservant (cid:224) la lØgislation communautaire la fixation de critŁres. La Commission ne saurait partager le point de vue selon lequel les particules en suspension constituØes de matiŁres argileuses naturelles sont en soi inoffensives pour l(cid:146)environnement. En effet, des matiŁres en suspension chimiquement ou biologiquement inertes peuvent conduire (cid:224) une dØtØrioration de la qualitØ Øcologique des eaux, par exemple en recouvrant les biocØnoses de la faune et de la flore microscopiques dans les eaux de surface ou en altØrant les zones de frai. Si il le Parlement et le Conseil acceptent la proposition de directive sur la base des critŁres fixØs, appartiendra aux (cid:201)tats membres de dØcider dans quels cas et dans quelle mesure ils feront usage de ces dØrogations. Le Parlement a accordØ une importance particuliŁre, dans son avis Ømis en premiŁre lecture, le 11 fØvrier 1999, sur le projet de directive susmentionnØ (3), aux critŁres concernant les dispositions dØrogatoires. La possibilitØ, pour les (cid:201)tats membres, de faire exception, dans ces cas ainsi que dans d(cid:146)autres, (cid:224) l(cid:146)interdiction d(cid:146)un rejet direct dans les eaux souterraines, est prØvue dans la position commune du Conseil, (cid:224) l(cid:146)article 11, paragraphe 3, point g).

(2000/C 280 E/108) QUESTION (cid:201)CRITE P-2690/99 posØe par Thierry La Perriere (UEN) au Conseil (3 janvier 2000) Objet: Relations UE-Turquie, droits de l(cid:146)homme et minoritØs chrØtiennes Dans le cadre des nØgociations relatives (cid:224) la mise en (cid:156)uvre de l(cid:146)Union douaniŁre et dans celles relatives (cid:224) la candidature de la Turquie (cid:224) l(cid:146)adhØsion (cid:224) l(cid:146)Union europØenne, le Conseil apporte une attention particuliŁre (cid:224) la situation des Kurdes. D(cid:146)autres minoritØs existent en Turquie. Une partie non nØgligeable de sa population est chrØtienne. Ces Turcs de religion chrØtienne ont dans le passØ fait l(cid:146)objet de violations massives des droits de l(cid:146)homme et leur situation demeure (cid:224) ce jour extrŒmement prØcaire. Le Conseil peut-il prØciser si, dans le cadre des nØgociations en cours avec la Turquie, attention particuliŁre (cid:224) la situation de ces minoritØs chrØtiennes? il apporte une RØponse (13 mars 2000) Le Conseil europØen d(cid:146)Helsinki est convenu que la Turquie est un pays candidat qui a vocation (cid:224) rejoindre l(cid:146)Union europØenne sur la base des mŒmes critŁres que ceux qui s(cid:146)appliquent aux autres pays candidats. Le respect des critŁres politiques dØfinis (cid:224) Copenhague constitue une exigence prØalable (cid:224) l(cid:146)ouverture de toute nØgociation d(cid:146)adhØsion. Le Conseil souligne que des institutions stables garantissant les droits de l(cid:146)homme, le respect des minoritØs et leur protection constitue un des critŁres politiques de Copenhague; les minoritØs chrØtiennes sont Øvidemment incluses. C 280 E/106 Journal officiel des CommunautØs europØennes FR 3. 10. 2000 Les conclusions du Conseil europØen d(cid:146)Helsinki mentionnent que, dans le cadre de la stratØgie europØenne actuelle, la Turquie, comme les autres pays candidats, bØnØficiera d(cid:146)une stratØgie de prØadhØsion visant (cid:224) encourager et (cid:224) appuyer ses rØformes. Cette stratØgie comportera un dialogue politique renforcØ, axØ sur les progrŁs (cid:224) accomplir pour rØpondre aux critŁres politiques fixØs pour l(cid:146)adhØsion, en particulier pour ce qui est de la question des droits de l(cid:146)homme. Cela aussi concerne bien entendu les minoritØs chrØtiennes. (2000/C 280 E/109) QUESTION (cid:201)CRITE P-2693/99 posØe par Lucio Manisco (GUE/NGL) au Conseil (3 janvier 2000) Objet: Ultimatum de la FØdØration de Russie (cid:224) la ville de Grozny L(cid:146)ultimatum brutal des autoritØs militaires et politiques de la FØdØration de Russie aux 50 000 habitants et aux noyaux de rØsistance dans la ville de Grosny a suscitØ l(cid:146)indignation dans le monde entier mais seuls des condamnations verbales, des prØoccupations et des avertissements ont ØtØ exprimØs de mŒme que «l(cid:146)Øtude» par le Haut ReprØsentant de la PESC et la Commission sur d(cid:146)Øventuelles mesures de rØtorsion a ØtØ annoncØe. Les rectifications apportØes aux termes de l(cid:146)ultimatum lancØ le 7 courant par les autoritØs russes ne modifient en rien la menace d(cid:146)Ølimination de milliers de civils dont l(cid:146)Øvacuation est, de toute maniŁre, impossible sous les bombardements. Le Conseil n(cid:146)estime-t-il pas qu(cid:146)il faut passer des paroles aux actes en suspendant temporairement, mais les accords de partenariat et de coopØration avec Moscou ainsi que toute forme immØdiatement, d(cid:146)assistance directe et indirecte (cid:224) la FØdØration de Russie? RØponse (13 mars 2000) Lors du Conseil europØen d(cid:146)Helsinki, tenu les 10 et 11 dØcembre, les bombardements massifs perpØtrØs sur des villes tchØtchŁnes, la menace prononcØe (cid:224) l(cid:146)encontre des habitants de Grozny et l(cid:146)ultimatum posØ par les chefs militaires russes ont ØtØ violemment condamnØs. Compte tenu de la situation qui prØvaut en TchØtchØnie, le Conseil europØen a dØcidØ qu(cid:146)il convenait de rØexaminer la mise en (cid:156)uvre de la stratØgie commune (cid:224) l(cid:146)Øgard de la Russie, de suspendre partiellement l(cid:146)accord de partenariat et de coopØration et d(cid:146)appliquer rigoureusement les dispositions en matiŁre commerciale. Pour ce qui est du programme TACIS, le Conseil europØen a demandØ (cid:224) l(cid:146)autoritØ budgØtaire d(cid:146)examiner la question du transfert d(cid:146)une partie des fonds prØvus pour TACIS vers l(cid:146)aide humanitaire. En outre, le financement au titre du budget 2000 devrait Œtre limitØ aux domaines prioritaires, au nombre desquels figurent les droits de l(cid:146)homme, l(cid:146)(cid:201)tat de droit, le soutien (cid:224) la sociØtØ civile et la sØcuritØ nuclØaire. NØanmoins, il convient de garder prØsent (cid:224) l(cid:146)esprit qu(cid:146)un bon nombre des programmes de coopØration au titre de la stratØgie commune et de l(cid:146)APC rØpondent aux intØrŒts de l(cid:146)Union europØenne, comme par exemple ceux concernant la sØcuritØ nuclØaire, le dØsarmement et la non-prolifØration, la mise en place d(cid:146)institutions dØmocratiques ainsi que la sociØtØ civile. Ces dØcisions du Conseil europØen ont ØtØ notifiØes (cid:224) la Russie dans une lettre adressØe (cid:224) M. Poutine, premier ministre, par M. Lipponen, premier ministre de la Finlande, et M. Solana, SecrØtaire gØnØral/Haut ReprØsentant, en date du 11 dØcembre. Le Conseil «Affaires gØnØrales» du 24 janvier 2000 a invitØ la Commission (cid:224) recentrer le Programme TACIS 2000 sur des domaines clØs promouvant directement les valeurs dØmocratiques, (cid:224) rØaffecter les fonds non engagØs, (cid:224) l(cid:146)aide humanitaire et (cid:224) la promotion de l(cid:146)Øtablissement de rØseaux dans la sociØtØ civile, et (cid:224) cesser d(cid:146)envisager l(cid:146)extension Øventuelle de prØfØrences gØnØralisØes supplØmentaires (cid:224) la Russie. Il s(cid:146)est montrØ prØoccupØ par le nombre croissant de diffØrends commerciaux rØsultant de violations par la Russie de l(cid:146)APC et d(cid:146)accords sectoriels et a notØ que la Commission avait l(cid:146)intention de prØsenter des contre mesures face (cid:224) la taxe russe sur les exportations de dØbris de mØtaux ferreux. Il a invitØ la Commission (cid:224) continuer d(cid:146)entreprendre des actions de ce type dans d(cid:146)autres domaines qui prØoccupent l(cid:146)Union

Mellem 1947 og 1980 gennemfłrte den en politik til fremme af besk(cid:230)ftigelsen, som bragte antallet af arbejdspladser op p(cid:229) 1. 800. I 1989 blev virksomheden overtaget af »Gruppo Leali«. I 1993 solgte »Gruppo Leali« vandkraftinstalla- tionerne. Afst(cid:229)elsen af disse installationer, der havde produceret lavprisenergi, faldt sammen med ind- fłrelsen af en virksomhedspolitik, som til sidst fłrte til Imidlertid indfłrtes der natarbejde og arbejde p(cid:229) słn- og helligdage for at spare p(cid:229) udgifterne til elektricitet. Samtidig udtalte Dario Leali over for de kommunale myndigheder i Villadossola, at han ogs(cid:229) łnskede at tage andre forhold i st(cid:229)lsektoren med i betragtningen, og at han i łvrigt ikke agtede at opfłre SISMA i Villadossola p(cid:229) listen over de fabrikker, der skulle omstruktureres som fastlagt i den europ(cid:230)iske plan for omstrukturering af st(cid:229)lsektoren. Dog h(cid:230)vdede han, at fabrikken ville kunne forts(cid:230)tte sin produktion. fabrikkens lukning. I oktober 1999 meddelte »Gruppo Leali«, at den ikke var i besiddelse af de 200 mia. , der var nłdvendige for at omstrukturere fabrikken i Villadossola, og at denne derfor ville indstille sin produktion pr. 31. oktober 1999. Denne pludselige afgłrelse har gjort 320 arbejdstagere arbejdslłse, hvorimod »Gruppo Leali« stadig ejer alle SISMA-installationerne i Villadossola. Yderligere forholder det sig s(cid:229)dan, at »Gruppo Leali« har modtaget stłtte fra Regionalfonden og/eller fondene til omstrukturering af virksomheder og/eller fondene til oml(cid:230)gning af st(cid:229)lindustrien. Kan Kommissionen oplyse: 1. hvor store stłttebelłb der er udbetalt? 2. hvorledes »Gruppo Leali« har anvendt stłtten? 3. hvilken kontrol den fłrer med den udbetalte stłtte? Svar afgivet p(cid:229) Kommissionens vegne af Michel Barnier (17. januar 2000) Ifłlge de oplysninger, Kommissionen til dato har f(cid:229)et fra de italienske myndigheder, ser det ud til, at »Gruppo Leali« ikke har modtaget stłtte fra Den Europ(cid:230)iske Fond for Regionaludvikling. Kommissionen har imidlertid anmodet de italienske myndigheder om supplerende oplysninger og skal holde det (cid:230)rede medlem underrettet. (2000/C 225 E/187) SKRIFTLIG FORESP(cid:216)RGSEL E-2571/99 af W. G. van Velzen (PPE-DE) til R(cid:229)det (3. januar 2000) Om: Energicharterets sekretariat Den 20. november 1999 meddelte NRC Handelsblad, at den nederlandske regering er bekymret over den d(cid:229)rlige ledelse af energicharterets sekretariat i Bruxelles. For et (cid:229)r siden udsendte virksomhedsledelses- og konsulentfirmaet Arthur D. Little efter anmodning fra den dav(cid:230)rende formand for energicharterets statslige r(cid:229)d Rutten en rapport om ledelsen af sekretariatet. C 225 E/170 De Europ(cid:230)iske F(cid:230)llesskabers Tidende DA 8. 8. 2000 1. Hvilke fremskridt er der gjort med protokollen til energicharteret? Har R(cid:229)det kendskab til resultaterne af den undersłgelse, Arthur D. Little har gennemfłrt af, hvorledes 2. energicharterets sekretariat fungerer? Hvilken status har denne rapport, og hvorn(cid:229)r f(cid:229)r medlemsstaterne og Europa-Parlamentet adgang til 3. den? Er det sandt, at det finske formandskab har anmodet energicharterets generalsekret(cid:230)r Sch(cid:252)tterle om 4. at udlevere rapporten til EU-medlemsstaterne? 5. Er det rigtigt, at Tyskland finder det uhensigtsm(cid:230)ssigt at frigive denne rapport? Svar (28. februar 2000) Energichartertraktaten og energicharterprotokollen om energieffektivitet og de hermed forbundne miljła- spekter blev undertegnet i 1994. I overensstemmelse med ECT(cid:146)s artikel 44 tr(cid:229)dte traktaten og protokollen i kraft den 16. april 1998, dvs. p(cid:229) den halvfemsindstyvende dag efter datoen for deponering af det tredivte ratifikationsinstrument hos Den Portugisiske Republik, der er depositar for denne traktat. Hidtil har 40 lande ratificeret energicharteret. For s(cid:229) vidt ang(cid:229)r Den Europ(cid:230)iske Union har alle medlems- staterne og De Europ(cid:230)iske F(cid:230)llesskaber ratificeret den. Hvad ang(cid:229)r den rapport, som virksomhedsledelses- og konsulentfirmaet Arthur D. Little har udarbejdet om, hvorledes energicharterets sekretariat fungerer, er der tale om en rapport, der hłrer under organisa- tionens interne forvaltningskompetence. Det er derfor ikke R(cid:229)dets sag at udtale sig om, hvorvidt og hvorn(cid:229)r medlemsstaterne og Europa-Parlamentet f(cid:229)r adgang til denne rapport. I forbindelse med forberedelsen af energicharterkonferencens seneste młde den 7. december 1999 i Bruxelles udtrykte det f(cid:229) udleveret rapporten. Det skal bem(cid:230)rkes, at konferencen med enstemmighed besluttede at udpege en ny generalsekret(cid:230)r i stedet for generalsekret(cid:230)r Sch(cid:252)tterle. Der er tale om Ria Kemper, der tiltr(cid:229)dte den 1. januar 2000. finske formandskab imidlertid łnske om at (2000/C 225 E/188) SKRIFTLIG FORESP(cid:216)RGSEL E-2573/99 af Mark Watts (PSE) til Kommissionen (11. januar 2000) Om: Kommissionsrapporter om veterin(cid:230)rkontrol i Belgien og Irland Den 22. februar 1999 offentliggjorde Kommissionen en rapport om veterin(cid:230)re kontrolbesłg i Belgien. Rapporten afslłrede alvorlige overtr(cid:230)delser i Belgien af R(cid:229)dets direktiv 91/628/E(cid:216)F (1) om beskyttelse af dyr under transport, bl. a. transport af syge dyr og de belgiske myndigheders godkendelse af ruteplaner for lange rejser for svin, selv om der ikke var mulighed for, at svinene kunne hvile, blive fodret og vandet efter 24 timers rejse som kr(cid:230)vet i direktiv 91/628/E(cid:216)F. Den 18. august 1999 offentliggjorde Kommissionen en rapport om veterin(cid:230)re kontrolbesłg i Irland. Den afslłrede alvorlige overtr(cid:230)delser i Irland af direktiv 91/628/E(cid:216)F. Hvilke skridt tager Kommissionen for at kr(cid:230)ve, at de belgiske og irske myndigheder sikrer overholdelse af kravene i R(cid:229)dets direktiv 91/628/E(cid:216)F?

Can the Commission also say how many requests have been submitted in accordance with Article 89, how many received a positive response and, in each case, what the penalty was and what the official(cid:146)s grade, responsibilities and duties were at the time the charges were brought? Answer given by Mr Kinnock on behalf of the Commission (3 February 2000) The Commission is forwarding directly to the Honourable Member and to the Secretariat General of the Parliament the details of the disciplinary proceedings for which a disciplinary measure has been adopted by the appointing authority for the period January 1998 to November 1999 included. Concerning the temporary measures taken against officials involved in disciplinary proceedings, the Staff Regulations provide for the possible suspension of an official in cases where allegations of serious misconduct have been made. Since January 1998, four officials have been suspended. On 30 November 1999, only one official remained suspended. The Disciplinary Board has not been consulted in 11 of these disciplinary proceedings. Legal fees reimbursed in 1998 and in 1999 by the Commission in relation with disciplinary proceedings (Article 10 Annex IX of the Statute) were nil in 1998 and totalled € 141 342 in 1999. For the period January 1998-November 1999, one official submitted a request for deletion from his personal file of all reference to a disciplinary measure (relegation in step) as foreseen by Article 89 of the Staff Regulations. The request was accepted by the Appointing Authority. (2000/C 280 E/080) WRITTEN QUESTION E-2593/99 by Daniel Hannan (PPE-DE) to the Council (3 January 2000) Subject: Code of Conduct on arms sales Operative Provision 4 of the EU Code of Conduct on Arms Exports states that (cid:145)Member States will keep (cid:133) consultations [under the code] confidential(cid:146). 3. 10. 2000 EN Official Journal of the European Communities C 280 E/79 The British Government interprets this as including the results of such consultations (Official Report, 25 October 1999, column 738). Does the Council as a whole agree, or do individual Member States have different practices as concerns the openness of the results of these consultations? If so, what are they? Does a list exist of what arms were exported by a second Member State after the first had declined an export licence? Reply (13 March 2000) It is for Member States to decide how to interpret the confidentiality provisions of the Code of Conduct, bearing in mind that, in case of refusal, notifications communicated under the Code must remain confidential and that the fundamentally bilateral nature of the consultation process must be preserved. It is not for the Council to comment on Member States(cid:146) practices in this area. (2000/C 280 E/081) WRITTEN QUESTION E-2596/99 by Daniel Hannan (PPE-DE) to the Commission (11 January 2000) Subject: Authors of Corpus Juris Corpus Juris was a (cid:145)Green Paper(cid:146) which did not, ostensibly, reflect the official view of the Commission. Do any of the document(cid:146)s authors hold official positions in the European Communities? Do any have an influence on policy development? Answer given by Mrs Schreyer on behalf of the Commission (7 February 2000) The Corpus juris (1) is neither a green paper nor indeed a Commission document. However, it was drawn up at Parliament(cid:146)s request under the aegis of the Commission. The follow-up report on the Corpus Juris of September 1999 has been informally transmitted to Parliament(cid:146)s Committee on Budgetary Control (2). Drawing up the Corpus juris was entrusted to a committee of eight independent experts, none of whom were performing official duties within the Communities at the time. On the basis of the ideas formulated in the Corpus juris and the follow-up report, the Commission intends, as does Parliament itself, to push forward the institutions(cid:146) deliberations on the institutional arrangements which might be proposed, including to the Intergovernmental Conference.
