Článek 2 1. Opatření uvedená v článku 1 se vztahují výlučně na výrobky určené pro domácí trh Kanárských ostrovů. vzhledem k tomu, že s ohledem na zvláštní omezení, kterým jsou Kanárské ostrovy vystaveny, režim volného obchodu, který platil v době přistoupení Španělského království ke Společenství, a malý objem dotyčného obchodu, se tato odchylka jeví jako oprávněná; 2. Příslušné španělské orgány přijmou veškerá opatření nezbytná pro dosažení souladu s odstavcem 1 podle příslušných ustanovení Společenství o zvláštním použití stanovených v nařízení Rady (EHS) č. 2913/92 ze dne 12. října 1992, kterým se vydává celní kodex Společenství (3). vzhledem k tomu, že by měla být přijata ustanovení, která zajistí, že výrobky podléhající odchylce od platných množstevních ome- zení, budou určeny výlučně pro vnitřní trh Kanárských ostrovů a že Komise bude dostávat pravidelné zprávy o objemu dovozů a zpětného odeslání; vzhledem k tomu, že jsou-li dotyčné výrobky zasílány do zbytku celního území Společenství, musí být uplatněna opatření týkající se množstevních omezení; že zboží proto musí být doprovázeno dokumenty T5 až na celní úřad, kde je po předložení odpovída- jících dokumentů uvolněno pro účely spotřeby, aby se tak zajis- tilo, že podléhá těmto opatřením, (1) Úř. věst.

Každé odeslání dotyčných výrobků musí být doprovázeno kontrolním výtiskem T5 vystaveným v souladu s články 472 až 484 nařízení Komise (EHS) č. 2454/93 ze dne 2. července 1993, kterým se provádí nařízení Rady (EHS) č. 2913/92, kterým se vydává celní kodex Společenství (4). 3.

Den tidligere britiske regering har imidlertid besluttet, at det ikke var hensigtsm(cid:230)ssigt med en national informationskampagne om dette emne, fłr Det Forenede Kongerige havde truffet beslutning om at deltage i (cid:216)MU(cid:146)en, og Kommissionen har nłje respekteret denne beslutning. I andre medlemsstater har Kommissionen v(cid:230)ret glad for at kunne g(cid:229) med i f(cid:230)lles oplysningskampagner sammen med regeringerne. Dette er forklaringen p(cid:229) de forskellige belłbsstłrrelser, der er bevilget til Det Forenede Kongerige og de andre medlemsstater. (98/C 45/167) SKRIFTLIG FORESP(cid:216)RGSEL E-1963/97 af Undine-Uta Bloch von Blottnitz (V) til Kommissionen (9. juni 1997) Om: EU(cid:146)s retsregler om artsbeskyttelse og tr(cid:230)kfuglenes situation Europa(cid:146)s tr(cid:230)kfugle er i stor fare for at uddł. Ornitologer har for nylig henvist til, at bestanden af 70 af tr(cid:230)kfuglearterne siden begyndelsen af det 20. (cid:229)rhundrede er g(cid:229)et 70% tilbage. De głr navnlig menneskets mangfoldige p(cid:229)virkninger af łkosystemet for ansvarlige for dette. Centralt i eksperternes kritik er łdel(cid:230)ggelse af v(cid:230)rdifulde habitater, mangel p(cid:229) passende hvilesteder, anvendelse af pesticider og andre miljłgifte samt jagt p(cid:229) fuglene. Hvilke foranstaltninger har Kommissionen truffet for p(cid:229) afgłrende vis at forbedre situationen for de truede 1. tr(cid:230)kfugle? 2. Anser Kommissionen Den Europ(cid:230)iske Unions aktiviteter inden for miljł- og artsbeskyttelse for tilstr(cid:230)kkelige i lyset af den langsomme og endog til dels helt manglende gennemfłrelse af EU(cid:146)s miljł- og artsbeskyttelseslovgivning p(cid:229) medlemsstatsplan? 3. P(cid:229) hvilken m(cid:229)de p(cid:229)t(cid:230)nker Kommissionen at sikre bedre gennemfłrelse af lovgivningen? Svar afgivet p(cid:229) Kommissionens vegne af Ritt Bjerregaard (7. juli 1997) I sin rolle som koordinator overv(cid:229)ger Kommissionen de fremskridt, der głres i medlemsstaternes ansvarlige instanser for gennemfłrelsen af R(cid:229)dets direktiv 79/409/E(cid:216)F om beskyttelse af vilde fugle (1). F(cid:230)llesskabet yder finansiel stłtte hertil i medfłr af R(cid:229)dets forordning (EF) nr. 1404/96 om (cid:230)ndring af R(cid:229)dets forordning (E(cid:216)F) nr. 1973/92 om oprettelse af et finansielt instrument for miljłet (LIFE) (2) til stłtte for en r(cid:230)kke bevarelsesaktioner til fordel for udryddelsestruede fuglearter og disses naturlige levesteder i omr(cid:229)der, der er klassificeret som s(cid:230)rligt beskyttede omr(cid:229)der i henhold til direktiv 79/409/E(cid:216)F. I medfłr af denne forordning er der for nylig blevet udarbejdet en r(cid:230)kke handlingsplaner for globalt udryddelsestruede fuglearter i Europa. Kommissionen n(cid:230)rer den opfattelse, at mange medlemsstater endnu ikke har efterkommet alle de forpligtelser, der p(cid:229)hviler dem i henhold til dette direktiv, navnlig for s(cid:229) vidt ang(cid:229)r fredning i tilstr(cid:230)kkeligt omfang som s(cid:230)rligt beskyttede omr(cid:229)der af de bedst egnede territorier for udryddelsestruede fuglearter, der er opfłrt i bilag I, samt for tr(cid:230)kfuglearter. Kommissionen indleder retssager i medfłr af artikel 169 i EF-traktaten, s(cid:229)fremt der er tegn p(cid:229), at bestemte medlemsstater ikke efterkommer deres forpligtelser i henhold til dette direktiv. I dag er der en hel r(cid:230)kke sagsanl(cid:230)g i gang mod forskellige medlemsstater, som ikke har udpeget et tilstr(cid:230)kkeligt stort antal s(cid:230)rligt beskyttede omr(cid:229)der og tilstr(cid:230)kkelige arealer.

text: C 60/74 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 25. 2. 98 (98/C 60/108) WRITTEN QUESTION E-1980/97 by Peter Skinner (PSE) to the Commission (9 June 1997) Subject: Heavy Goods Vehicles › fiscal regimes and movement controls What action is the Commission taking to coordinate and harmonize HGV fiscal regimes and movement controls to ensure fair competition, and complete the single market in this sector? Answer given by Mr Kinnock on behalf of the Commission (31 July 1997) In July 1996 the Commission adopted a proposal for a Council directive on the charging of heavy goods vehicles for the use of certain infrastructures (1) intended to replace Directive 93/89/EEC (2), which regulates road fiscal matters in the Community. The Commission proposal is currently under examination in the Council and the Parliament which gave the proposal a first reading in July 1997. Regarding movement controls, the Honourable Member is referred to the Commission(cid:146)s reply to written question E-41/97 by Mr Cornelissen (3). (1) OJ C 59, 26. 2. 1997. (2) OJ L 279, 12. 11. 1993. (3) OJ C 186, 18. 6. 1997. (98/C 60/109) WRITTEN QUESTION E-1983/97 by Kirsi Piha (PPE) to the Commission (9 June 1997) Subject: Documents translated into Finnish In the past few days there has been negative publicity in Finland about the uneven level of Finnish translation of Commission documents. Some of them have contained particularly bad grammatical errors and their texts have been hard to understand or even completely unintelligible. In the press reference has been made in this connection to the brochure on competition in urban and regional planning issued by the Commission(cid:146)s regional policy division, which is a glaring example of bad translation. However, according to expert opinion, this brochure was not translated by a Finnish native speaker and it may even have been translated by machine. In order to avoid this type of scrutiny, does the Commission intend to issue internal instructions to all its departments and units using translation services to the effect that they must make use in their translations only of professional translators selected for this task by means of competitions, and must also ensure that a person who receives a document for translation speaks the language into which he is translating as his mother tongue? Will the Commission also ensure that there are enough Finnish language translators to translate all the necessary documents properly? Answer given by Mr Liikanen on behalf of the Commission (11 July 1997) A brochure mistakenly understood by some to be a European institution publication triggered the recent debate on the quality of Finnish translations of Community documents. Such was not the case. The document in question, presented by the daily Helsingin Sanomat in its editions of 20 May 1997, related to the competition for the Urban Planning Award, which is organised by the European Council of Town Planning, a body totally independent of the Commission and any other European institution. Although the organisers received a Commission grant, neither the brochure nor its translation was published or financed by the Commission or by any other institution

text: 10. 2. 98 IT Gazzetta ufficiale delle Comunita‘ europee C 45/131 (98/C 45/168) INTERROGAZIONE SCRITTA E-1965/97 di Nikitas Kaklamanis (UPE) alla Commissione (9 giugno 1997) Oggetto: «Zone franche» turche e azione della Commissione Avendo ricevuto una risposta del tutto insoddisfacente all(cid:146)interrogazione H-0317/97 (1), l(cid:146)interrogante insiste ulteriormente sulla questione delle «zone franche» in Turchia. Nella risposta in questione si dice che «rappresentanti della Commissione e degli Stati membri hanno effettuato missioni in varie «zone franche» e si aggiunge che «la situazione appare soddisfacente». Puo‘ la Commissione specificare quali «zone franche» sono state controllate e se prevede di effettuarvi nuovi controlli a sorpresa attraverso l(cid:146)UCLAF, stante che il problema e‘ particolarmente grave e concerne l(cid:146)inosservanza degli impegni assunti dalla Turchia con l(cid:146)accordo di unione doganale, oltre che l(cid:146)esportazione illegale di prodotti tessili originari di paesi terzi introdotti nell(cid:146)UE come «turchi»? (1) Discussioni del Parlamento europeo (Ora delle interrogazioni del 13-14 maggio 1997). Risposta data dal sig. Van den Broek a nome della Commissione (8 luglio 1997) Si rinvia l(cid:146)onorevole parlamentare alla risposta data dalla Commissione alla sua interrogazione orale n. H-317/97 nella sessione parlamentare di maggio 1997; in tale occasione la Commissione ha fatto presente che una missione comunitaria si era recata in Turchia nell(cid:146)ottobre 1996 al fine di accertarsi che il funzionamento delle zone franche turche fosse conforme agli obblighi assunti dalla Turchia nel quadro dell(cid:146)unione doganale. Nel corso della missione sono state visitate le zone franche di Istanbul e di Mersin dove non e‘ stata constatata alcuna trasgressione alle regole dell(cid:146)unione doganale. Trattandosi di una missione di controllo, l(cid:146)unita‘ responsabile per il coordinamento della lotta antifrode non vi ha partecipato. Le autorita‘ turche hanno del resto confermato alla missione che desiderano essere informate di qualsiasi caso di frode eventualmente scoperto dalla Comunita‘. La Commissione si riserva il diritto di far presenti simili casi alle autorita‘ turche qualora le venissero sottoposte denunce debitamente motivate. In particolare essa e‘ disposta ad esaminare eventuali elementi precisi riguardanti le frodi in questione. In ogni caso, nel quadro delle raccomandazioni del comitato d(cid:146)associazione Comuita‘-Turchia del 14 aprile 1997, entrambe le parti hanno convenuto di svolgere regolari controlli della situazione al fine di evitare l(cid:146)elusione delle norme dell(cid:146)unione doganale. (98/C 45/169) INTERROGAZIONE SCRITTA E-1971/97 di Roberta Angelilli (NI) alla Commissione (9 giugno 1997) Oggetto: Costruzione a Roma della linea «C» della metropolitana e della tramvia veloce «Castelletto/Largo Argentina» Rispondendo all(cid:146)interrogazione scritta E-1273/97 (1) la Signora Bjerregaard, a nome della Commissione, precisava che entrambe le questioni trattate nella suddetta interrogazione, ovvero la costruzione a Roma della linea «C» della metropolitana e della tramvia veloce «Castelletto/Largo Argentina» rientrano nell(cid:146)allegato II della direttiva 85/337/CEE (2) sulla valutazione di impatto ambientale di determinati progetti pubblici e privati, e che per effetto della mancata trasposizione della direttiva stessa, la Commissione e‘ intervenuta in tutti e due i casi presso le autorita‘ italiane. Puo‘ la Commissione spiegare precisamente che genere di interventi ha effettuato e preso quali autorita‘ italiane? Puo‘ la Commissione rendere noti gli effetti di tali interventi? Infine, qualora il Comune di Roma, continuando a non tenere conto di quanto stabilito dalla direttiva 85/337/CEE, proseguisse la costruzione delle opere in questione, quale sarebbe l(cid:146)atteggiamento della Commissione?

text: C 82/24 NL Publicatieblad van de Europese Gemeenschappen 17. 3. 98 (98/C 82/32) SCHRIFTELIJKE VRAAG E-1996/97 van Dietrich Elchlepp (PSE) aan de Commissie (9 juni 1997) Betreft: Hernieuwbare energiebronnen › stimulering en controle op het gebruik van de kredieten 1. Voor welke bedragen en voor welke projecten werden tot dusver kredieten ter stimulering van hernieuwbare energiebronnen beschikbaar gesteld in het kader van de bevordering van bepaalde regio(cid:146)s en van de landbouw? 2. Controleert de Commissie daarbij of bij de planning in de EU-lidstaten gebruik wordt gemaakt van alle mogelijkheden van regeneratieve energiewinning, bijvoorbeeld ook energiewinning uit biomassa? Kan de Commissie overzien of het gebruik van de kredieten aan e·e·n bepaald doel gebonden is, en zo neen, waarom niet? 3. Is het juist dat het oorspronkelijk met EU-hulp uit te voeren THESEUS-project op Kreta voor het winnen van energie met behulp van zonnewarmte nu moet wijken voor uitsluitend conventionele energiecentrales (gasturbines met dieselaandrijving, dieselgeneratoren met als brandstof zware olie, resp. stoomkrachtcentrales met eveneens als brandstof zware olie) op de locaties Chania en Atherinolakos? Hoe valt dit te rijmen met uitspraken van de Griekse politiek en verklaringen van de Commissie dat men van Kreta een model voor technologie op het gebied van hernieuwbare energiebronnen wil maken? Antwoord van de heer Papoutsis namens de Commissie (16 september 1997) 1. In het kader van de plattelandsontwikkeling valt investeringssteun voor hernieuwbare energiebronnen onder de maatregel (cid:132)benutting van het endogene potentieel(cid:148). In dit verband worden verschillende projecten gefinancierd, bv. voor de productie van biodiesel uit koolzaad of bioethanol uit tarwe of suikerbieten, of voor de veredeling van hout of de vergassing van afvalstoffen van biologisch afbreekbare stoffen, waaronder mest en slachtafval. Aangezien de individuele projecten niet op basis van goedgekeurde programma(cid:146)s worden aangeduid, kan het exacte bedrag terzake moeilijk worden becijferd. Wat de regionale fondsen betreft, valt de bevordering van hernieuwbare energiebronnen onder de specifieke programma’s voor ieder van de lidstaten van doelstelling 1. Financiering voor hernieuwbare energiebronnen is relevant in de volgende lidstaten (voor de periode 1994-1999) op een totaal van 3000 miljoen ecu voor energie: › Griekenland: 75,3 miljoen ecu of 8,7% van het energieprogramma; › Spanje: in totaal 84,42 miljoen ecu waarvan 26 miljoen ecu uit de regionale programma(cid:146)s en 56,42 miljoen ecu uit een algemene toelage van het deelprogramma energie; › Ierland: 8,6 miljoen ecu of 27% van het deelprogramma energie; › Portugal: in totaal 172,85 miljoen ecu waarvan 70 miljoen ecu 21. 7% uitmaakt van het deelprogramma energie; 12,95 miljoen ecu uit het Madeira-programma; 68,4 miljoen ecu uit het Azorenprogramma en 21,5 miljoen ecu uit REGIS II C. I. voor de Azoren. In de eerdere programmaperiode, van 1989 tot 1993, is in het kader van het communautair initiatief Valoren 293,75 miljoen ecu bijgedragen tot de verbetering van het endogene energiepotentieel, op een totaal van 2. 331 miljoen ecu die waren toegekend voor energie. 2. De Commissie cofinanciert projecten voor planning op nationaal en regionaal niveau op het gebied van hernieuwbare energiebronnen. In dit verband ziet zij erop toe dat alle mogelijkheden inzake de productie van energie uit hernieuwbare bronnen, onder meer ook biomassa, worden geanalyseerd. Het besluit tot en de wijze van toepassing van dergelijke plannen vallen onder de bevoegdheid van de lidstaten. Er worden specifieke informatieactiviteiten verricht over het gebruik van biomassa voor energiedoeleinden › teelten, bosoverschot- ten, afvalstoffen en vloeibare biobrandstoffen › teneinde de lidstaten ertoe te stimuleren rekening te houden met de mogelijkheden die op dit gebied worden geboden en de nodige maatregelen te treffen. 3. Neen, het Theseus-project heeft betrekking op de installatie van een innoverende zonnecentrale voor elektriciteitsproductie met een capaciteit van 52 megawatt, die gepland is in Fragokastello in het district Chania (Kreta). Momenteel is dit project nog in de planningfase, die door het THERMIE-programma wordt gefinancierd (TE-235-96). Hierbij worden de specifieke dimensionering en locatie van de installatie aangegeven, overeen- komstig de zonne- en weersgegevens en in overleg met de regionale energieplanning op Kreta

text: C 45/130 NL Publicatieblad van de Europese Gemeenschappen 10. 2. 98 Antwoord van de heer Oreja namens de Commissie (3 juli 1997) Voor specifieke projecten in verband met de Economische en Monetaire Unie (ELU) in het Verenigd Koninkrijk werd, hoofdzakelijk in antwoord op verzoeken van de niet-gouvernementele sector, meer dan 200. 000 ecu toegekend. De vorige Britse regering was echter van mening dat het niet gepast was een nationale voorlichtingscampagne over dit onderwerp op touw te zetten alvorens het Verenigd Koninkrijk een beslissing had genomen omtrent de toetreding tot de EMU en de Commissie heeft deze beslissing willen respecteren. In andere lidstaten echter heeft de Commissie tot haar genoegen met de regeringen samengewerkt in het kader van gemeenschappelijke voorlichtingsacties. Om deze reden werden aan het Verenigd Koninkrijk andere bedragen toegekend dan aan de andere lidstaten. (98/C 45/167) SCHRIFTELIJKE VRAAG E-1963/97 van Undine-Uta Bloch von Blottnitz (V) aan de Commissie (9 juni 1997) Betreft: EU-wetgeving inzake de vogelbescherming en de situatie van de trekvogels Trekvogels worden in Europa massaal met uitsterven bedreigd. Ornithologen hebben er onlangs op gewezen dat de bestanden van 70 inheemse trekvogelsoorten sinds het begin van de 20ste eeuw met 70% zijn afgenomen. Zij wijten dit vooral aan de talrijke invloeden van de mens op het ecosysteem. Centraal bij de kritiek der deskundigen staat de vernietiging van waardevolle biotopen, het ontbreken van voldoende stiltegebieden, het gebruik van pesticiden en andere milieuvergiften, alsmede de jacht. 1. Welke maatregelen heeft de Commissie genomen om de situatie van de met uitsterven bedreigde trekvogels doorslaggevend te verbeteren? 2. Acht de Commissie de inspanningen van de Europese Unie op het terrein van de bescherming van het milieu en van die der diersoorten, gelet op de trage en ten dele geheel niet uitgevoerde omzetting van EU-wetgeving op deze terreinen op het niveau van de lidstaten, voldoende? 3. Op welke wijze denkt de Commissie de stand van de omzetting van haar wetgeving te verbeteren? Antwoord van mevrouw Bjerregarrd namens de Commissie (7 juli 1997) In haar coo¤rdinerende rol volgt de Commissie de voorruitgang in de lidstaten, die verantwoordelijk zijn voor de tenuitvoerlegging van Richtlijn 79/409/EEG van de Raad inzake het behoud van de vogelstand(1). Op grond van Verordening (EG) nr. 1404/96 tot wijziging van Verordening (EEG) nr. 1973/92 inzake de oprichting van een financieel instrument voor het milieu(2) verleent de Gemeenschap financie¤le steun bij beschermingsacties voor begreigde vogelsoorten en hun habitats in zones die als speciale beschermingszones zijn aangewezen overeenkomstig Richtlijn 79/409/EEG. Krachtens deze verordening werden er onlangs actieplannen opgesteld voor algemeen bedreigde vogelsoorten in Europa. De Commissie is van mening dat veel lidstaten nog niet al hun verplichtingen krachtens deze richtlijn zijn nagekomen, in het bijzonder met betrekking tot een toereikend niveau van classificatie van de meest geschikte gebieden voor de in bijlage I opgenomen bedreigde vogelsoorten als speciale beschermingzones, evenals voor trekvogels. Wanneer kan worden bewezen dat bepaalde lidstaten hun verplichtingen op grond van deze richtlijn niet nakomen, leidt de Commissie jurische procedures in op grond van artikel 169 van hat EG-Verdrag. Momenteel lopen er rechtszaken tegen verscheidene lidstaten omdat zij van een onvoldoend aantal speciale bescherming- zones mededeling hebben gedaan.

text: 10. 2. 98 IT Gazzetta ufficiale delle Comunita‘ europee C 45/135 In base a uno studio preliminare svolto dalle autorita‘ municipali di Nea Ionia, il progetto e‘ stato oggetto di una gara d(cid:146)appalto. Lo studio tecnico eseguito dalla ditta incaricata dei lavori e‘ stato trasmesso al ministero greco della cultura («YPPO»), il quale ha dato il suo accordo con la decisione contenuta nel documento YPPO/DAM/472/29563/14. 6. 96. L(cid:146)accordo finale e‘ stato trasmesso l(cid:146)8 agosto 1996 e quindi i lavori sono iniziati. Tuttavia, il 4 febbraio 1997, il ministero della cultura e‘ ritornato sulla sua prima decisione e ha richiesto la modifica del progetto per quel che concerne il lago artificiale, le recinzioni e certi altri punti. L(cid:146)11 febbraio 1997 i lavori sono stati interrrotti per permettere degli scavi archeologici come pure la modifica di alcuni dati tecnici del progetto in base alle istruzioni dello Stato membro. La Commissione ritiene che le eventuali misure da prendere relative al monumento non siano di sua competenza ma di quella dei servizi dello Stato membro che si occupano di questo progetto. Per quel che concerne l(cid:146)impatto dei lavori sull(cid:146)ambiente va osservato che per questo tipo di progetto non e‘ richiesta una valutazione specifica. Tuttavia il progetto e‘ realizzato nel quadro di un accordo tra la municipalita‘ di Nea Ionia e il ministero dell(cid:146)ambiente greco, cosicche· le autorita‘ ambientali sono strettamente associate a questo progetto di rivalorizzazione dell(cid:146)ambiente urbano. (98/C 45/174) INTERROGAZIONE SCRITTA E-1977/97 di Katerina Daskalaki (UPE) alla Commissione (9 giugno 1997) Oggetto: Rischi derivanti dall(cid:146)ubicazione di una discarica controllata di rifiuti nel sito archeologico di Keratea Il posto scelto per installare un impianto organizzato per la gestione dei rifiuti in Attica coincide con una vasta zona classificata come sito archeologico soggetto a tutela assoluta, il Castello ebreo di Keratea, dove esiste un antico insediamento fortificato, numerosi reperti e falde freatiche di acque minerali. Stante il parere negativo del Servizio archeologico del Ministero della cultura, quali provvedimenti puo‘ e intende assumere la Commissione per evitare l(cid:146)insediamento di una discarica in un sito di interesse archeologico e storico che fa parte integrante del patrimonio culturale europeo? Risposta data dalla sig. ra Bjerregaard a nome della Commissione (29 luglio 1997) Ai sensi della direttiva 85/337/CEE del Consiglio concernente la valutazione dell(cid:146)impatto ambientale di determinati progetti pubblici e privati (1), un impianto per lo smaltimento dei rifiuti domestici e industriali rientra in una delle categorie dell(cid:146)allegato II. Secondo l(cid:146)articolo 4, i progetti che appartengono alle categorie riportate nell(cid:146)allegato II devono essere sottoposti ad una valutazione di impatto ambientale, qualora gli Stati membri ritengano che le loro caratteristiche lo richiedano. Tra gli elementi di cui tenere conto in una valutazione d(cid:146)impatto ambientale rientrano i beni materiali ed il patrimonio culturale.

text: COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES Brussels, 09. 06. 1997 COM(97) 265 final 97/0151 (SYN) Proposal for a COUNCIL REGULATION fEP ON INTEGRATING GENDER ISSUES IN DEVELOPMENT CO-OPERATION (presented by the Commission) EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM The proposed regulation on integrating gender issues in development co-operation (budget line B7-611) seeks to improve the effectiveness and sustainability of Community development co-operation through facilitating the integration of proper attention to gender issues in the development process. Gender issues refer to the different roles, responsibilities and opportunities of women and men in different cultures and societies. These differences are increasingly recognised internationally as having vital implications for development. Women make a crucially important economic and social contribution in developing countries, but their potential is severely limited by structural obstacles. These obstacles include persistent and severe disparities between women and men in nutrition, literacy, education, access to economic opportunities and control over decision-making, and they act as a brake on the development of society as a whole. Redressing gender disparities and the empowerment of women are therefore now considered as crucial priorities for development in terms of aid effectiveness, as well as of social justice and respect for human rights. Development interventions have in the past failed to address these issues effectively. In particular, they have often failed to take accurate account of the varied economic and social roles carried out by women in project areas, designing projects on the basis of an incomplete picture of reality and without participation from those most concerned. Such an approach reduces the effectiveness and the chances of success at policy, programme and project level. The actions to be taken under this Regulation come within the framework of Article 13 Ou of the Treaty on European Union, which identifies sustainable social and economic development as a priority for Community development co-operation. They also refer particularly to Article 13 Ou's emphasis on the protection of human rights and on the fight against poverty. These actions also form part of the Community's follow-up to its commitments under the Nairobi Forward-Looking Strategies (1985) and at the IV UN World Conference on Women (Beijing, 1995). The Community was a full participant at the Conference and is bound by the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action. The Council Resolution on integrating gender issues in development co-operation noted that its guidelines translated into the field of development co-operation the political commitments undertaken at Beijing. This draft is also consistent with the gender mainstreaming strategy defined by the Commission's Communication on Mainstreaming (COM (96) 67) and the inter- service working paper on mainstreaming a gender and equal opportunities perspective into all Community policies, of 12 February 1997. The role of the Community under this budget line is accordingly to take the necessary measures to: - ensure the full and effective integration of gender issues in its development co operation, at policy, programme and project levels ±- - facilitate well-targeted, strategic and large-scale initiatives within Community development co-operation to reduce gender disparities in developing countries. - support sensitisation and capacity-building on gender issues within developing countries. This budget line is not intended to finance operational projects in favour of women. Such an approach would risk marginalising the importance of this issue, could not have an effect on the scale required, and would have little impact of the quality and effectiveness of mainstream development activities. On the contrary, the function of the budget line is strategic and catalytic, seeking to include both the integration of gender issues, and, where appropriate, large scale special interventions to reduce differentials between women and men, within the mainstream of the Community's development co operation. This accords with the "mainstreaming" approach favoured by the Resolution and by the Beijing Platform. To achieve this, more emphasis needs to be given to integrating the gender dimension into macro-economic decision-making and into the formulation and implementation of sectoral policies and programmes. The range of actions envisaged includes the following: * provision of high-quality technical advice on gender integration in Community development policies and strategies - provision of high-quality technical advice on gender integration in Community programmes and projects during the stages of design, preparation; implementation, monitoring and evaluation -preparation and development of methodologies, procedures, manuals and guidelines to support the integration of gender issues within Community development co operation -research and studies to identify and map gender issues in a geographical or sectoral context -training and sensitisation activities aimed at key decision-makers within Community-funded development and within counterparts in developing countries -actions in support of co-ordination between the Commission and the Member- States to improve the integration of gender issues in development co-operation -thematic monitoring and evaluations -projects to build up the institutional and operational capacities of developing countries on gender issues -reinforcing the catalytic role of national machineries responsible for gender and for women in developing countries -encouraging and supporting partner countries in the revision of existing policy, administrative and legal frameworks in a gender-sensitive way -support to the formulation, follow-up and monitoring of national plans in developing countries designed to implement the Beijing Platform for Action -support to the networking and institutional capacities of NGOs and civil society in developing countries to press effectively for government action to implement their commitments under the Beijing Platform, and to develop their own programmes to complement government efforts. - l et - A specific strategy will be developed for each region in order to tailor activities as much as possible to immediate regional priorities. At the end of every budget year, the Commission will submit a report to the Parliament and the Council, setting out the activities undertaken and evaluating their results. The scale and importance of Community activities in the field of development co operation necessitate initiatives by the Community to ensure its implementation of its commitments at Beijing, complementary to those undertaken by Member States. -A$r- Proposai for a COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) on INTEGRATING GENDER ISSUES IN DEVELOPMENT CO-OPERATTON THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 130w thereof, Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, Acting in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 189c of the Treaty, (1) Whereas the importance of women's economic and social roles in developing countries has led to increasing international recognition that their full participation without discrimination is indispensable for sustainable and effective development, (2) Whereas their contribution to development is presently achieved in the face of formidable obstacles specific to women, which limit the outcome of their work and reduce the benefits to society as a whole, (3) Whereas these obstacles include persistent and severe disparities between women and men in access to basic services, control over economic resources and access to decision-making; (4) Whereas development interventions have frequently failed to adequately address the differences between women's and men's situations, roles, opportunities, and priorities, thereby reducing their overall success, (5) Whereas redressing gender disparities and the empowerment of women are crucial for social justice, human empowerment and the effectiveness of development efforts, (6) Whereas development co-operation must encourage the necessary accompanying changes in attitudes, structures and mechanisms at political, economic, legal, community and household level, (7) Whereas it is now recognised that though specific efforts to enhance the role of women in development remain as necessary as ever, the focus must widen to encompass both men's and women's roles, responsibilities, needs, access to resources and decision-making, and the inter-relationship between them, known as gender issues (8) Whereas development should systematically integrate gender analysis in the conception, design, implementation and evaluation of all development policies and interventions, interventions effectiveness requires that (9) Whereas the foregoing analysis is set out in more detail in the Commission's Communication to the Council and the European Parliament on integrating gender issues in development co-operation of 18th September 1995*, and was endorsed by the Council in its Resolution described below, 1 COM (95) 423 -3 (10) Whereas the Council in a series of Conclusions from 1982 to 93 has stressed the importance it attaches to women's role in development, (11) Whereas the Community and its Member States were signatories to the Nairobi Forward-Looking Strategies in 1985 and to the Declaration and Platform for Action of the Fourth World Conference on Women at Beijing in 1995, which stressed the need for action against worldwide obstacles to gender equality and to ensure that a gender perspective is reflected in all policies and programmes, (12) Whereas the UN Declaration on the Elimination of all forms of Discrimination against Women (1979) considers discrimination against women as an obstacle to development which parties agree to eliminate using all appropriate means, and the UN Declaration on the Right to Development (1986) emphasises the right of all persons to participate in and contribute to development and the need to undertake effective measures to ensure that women have an active role in the development process, 13) Whereas the European Parliament has emphasised in numerous Resolutions, and particularly in its Resolution of 14 May 1992^ on the situation of women in developing countries and its Resolution of the 15th June 1995 on the fourth Wortld Conference on Women in Beijing^, the need to integrate proper attention to women's roles and priorities in Community development co-operation and to take adequate measures to ensure active implementation of the conclusions of the Beijing Conference, (14) Whereas the resolution of the Council and the Representatives of the Governments of the Member States of 20 December 1995 endorses the Commission's Communication on the same subject, requires the full integration of gender issues in development co-operation and coordination between the Commission and Member States in this field, and sets out guidelines which also translate into the field of development co-operation the political commitments undertaken at Beijing, (15) Whereas this approach is further endorsed by the resolution of the Council and the member states on human and social development of 22 November 1996, (16) Whereas the recognised importance of these issues to development effectiveness makes it appropriate to envisage specific activities aimed at ensuring adequate attention to gender issues across the mainstream of Community financial instruments, which should increasingly assume responsibility for these key questions, 2 A3-0146/92 3 A4-0142/95 (17) Whereas the most effective approach is considered to be strategic and precisely targeted sensitisation initiatives capable of achieving a substantial multiplier effect, rather than the funding of small-scale operational projects, (18) Whereas the scale and importance of Community activities in the field of development co-operation necessitate initiatives by the Community to ensure its implementation of its commitments at Beijing, complementary to those undertaken by Member States, (19) Whereas measures need to be taken to finance the activities covered by this Regulation, (20) Whereas detailed rules for implementation, and in particular the form of action, the recipients of the aid and the decision-making procedures should be laid down, HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: Article 1 1. The Community shall provide financial assistance and technical expertise to support the effective integration of a gender perspective in the mainstream of its development co operation policies and interventions. 2. The assistance provided pursuant to this Regulation shall complement and reinforce assistance provided pursuant to other instruments of development co-operation with a view to taking fully into account gender considerations in Community policies and interventions. -5 3. For the purposes of this Regulation "gender" means the different and interrelated roles, responsibilities and opportunities of women and men relative to development, which are culturally specific and socially constructed, and can change over time, inter alia as a result of policy interventions. Article 2 1. The following are the central objectives of activities to be carried out pursuant to this Regulation: (a) To support the mainstreaming of gender analysis and the adoption of a gender- sensitive approach in the conception, design and implementation of Community development policies and interventions at macro, meso and micro level, as well as in their monitoring and evaluation. (b) To support and facilitate the inclusion of actions addressing major gender disparities and on an appropriately large scale in the mainstream of Community development interventions (c) To develop and promote endogenous public and private capacities in developing countries which can take the responsibility and initiative for mainstreaming the gender dimension in the development effort. 2. Activities eligible for financing include, in particular: - provision of technical advice and support on the integration of gender issues in development interventions, in particular at macro and sectoral level - research and other activities aimed at including gender implications in analyses, policies, country and sector strategies - schemes to build up the institutional and operational capacities of developing countries on gender issues at national, regional and local level - supporting the collection and dissemination of key data desegregated by sex, - development of methodologies, guidelines, manuals, procedures, indicators and other operational instruments seeking to improve the integration of gender issues in development activities thematic monitoring and evaluations training and sensitisation of key decision makers, - - - support to the formulation, follow-up and monitoring of national plans in developing countries designed to implement the Platform for Action of the Beijing Conference -6 - providing resources and technical assistance to developing countries in measuring and valuing unpaid work for inclusion in GNP or for reflection in parallel satellite accounts, as appropriate and in conformity with the UN System of National Accounts (SNA) 1993, - actions within the framework of co-ordination with Member States on integrating gender issues in development co-operation 3. Particular attention will be given to emerging areas for sensitising development co operation to gender issues, including emergency operations and crisis prevention, human rights and démocratisation, macro-economic analysis, sexual and reproductive health and rights. Article 3 Beneficiaries of activities carried out under this Regulation may include public authorities and government agencies, decentralised departments, regional bodies, universities and research centres, traditional and local communities, trade unions, co-operatives, non governmental organisations and associations representing local people, particularly women. Particular attention will be given to endogenous structures that can play a role in strengthening local capacities with respect to gender. Article 4 1. The instruments to be employed in the course of the activities referred to in Article 2 shall include studies, technical assistance, education, training or other services, supplies and works, as well as audits and evaluation and monitoring missions. 2. Community financing may cover both investment, with the exception of the purchase of real estate, and, since the project must, if possible, aim at medium-term viability, recurring expenditure (including administrative, maintenance and operating expenditure). However, with the exception of training, education and research programmes, operating costs may normally be covered only during the start-up phase and on a gradually decreasing basis. 3. A contribution from the partners defined in Article 3 shall be sought from beneficiaries. Their contribution shall be requested according to their means and the nature of the operation concerned. -7 4. Opportunities may be sought for cofinancing with other donors, especially with Member States and the international organizations concerned. 5. The necessary measures shall be taken to emphasize the Community character of the aid provided pursuant to this Regulation. 6. In order to attain the objectives of consistency and complementarity laid down in the Treaty and with the aim of guaranteeing optimum efficiency for the totality of these operations, the Commission may take all coordination measures necessary, including in particular: (a) the establishment of a system for the systematic exchange and analysis of information on operations financed or being considered for financing by the Community and the Member States; (b) on-the-spot coordination of these operations by means of regular meetings and exchanges of information between the representatives of the Commission and Member States in the beneficiary countries. 7. In order to obtain the greatest possible impact globally and nationally, the Commission, in liaison with the Member States, shall take any initiative necessary for ensuring proper coordination and close collaboration with the beneficiary countries and the providers of funds and other international agencies involved, in particular those forming part of the United Nations system. Article 5 Financial support pursuant to this Regulation shall take the form of grants. - 8- Article 6 1. The Commission shall be responsible for appraising, deciding and administering operations covered by this Regulation according to the budgetary and other procedures in force, and in particular those laid down in the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the European Communities. 2. Decisions relating to grants of more than ECU 2 million for individual operations financed pursuant to this Regulation shall be adopted under the procedure laid down in Article 7. 3. The Commission shall be authorized to approve, without seeking the opinion of the Committee referred to in Article 7, any extra commitments needed for covering any expected or real cost overruns in connection with the operations, provided that the overrun or additional requirement is less than or equal to 20% of the initial commitment fixed by the financing decision. 4.

(It would be advisable to propose that, in the next preliminary draft budget, the budget item should be replaced by the title "Item B7-611: Integrating gender issues in development cooperation", in line with the name of the operation. ) 2. Budget heading involved B7-611 3. ïjyflh—it Proposal for a Council regulation on integrating gender iaaues in development cooperation 4. Deffiripikffl of operation 4. 1 General objective This budget heading is intended to finance schemes to integrate gender issues, and promote full and equal participation by women, in the development process. This objective fits into the context of promoting sustainable economic and social development in the developing countries and involves launching new methods and policies, with a knock-on effect upon all the development cooperation financed by the Community. As pointed out on a number of occasions by the Council and Parliament, the integration of gender issues in the development process is recognized as essential. This means promoting the participation of women and recognizing their active role as full partners in all development activities, from design to evaluation (mainstreaming). 4& The Commission, as a full participant in the IVth World Conference on Women (Beijing, 1995), must ensure that the results of this Conference are followed up and implemented in the context of its own development cooperation, in accordance with the Resolution of 20 December 1995. This objective and the implementation of the Resolution of 20 December 1995 require closer coordination with the Member States in accordance with Articles 13 Ou, 13 Ox, and 130y of the Treaty on European Union. Within the context of the OECD Development Aid Committee (DAC), the Commission has been invited to take part in a number of studies on the application of the guidelines laid down by the DAC on the participation of women in development. The types of action planned are described below. Operations to inform and sensitize decision-makers and administrators of the development programmes financed by the Community, at headquarters and in the developing countries (training courses, instruction manuals, appropriate technical assistance, research and studies). Operations to promote the integration of gender issues in the design, programming, financing, execution, monitoring and/or evaluation of the projects and programmes financed by the Community in the developing countries. Strategic operations to inform and raise awareness among those involved in the governmental and regional decision making process in the developing countries so that greater account is taken of women's requirements in the development process. Operations as part of coordination with the Member States on gender issues. Operations to include schemes aimed at reducing gender-based disparities in the developing countries in the mainstream of projects and programmes financed by the Community. 4. 2 Period covered and arrangements for renewal. The policy is for an indefinite period. Individual schemes are for a year and can be renewed until adoption of this regulation. 5. Classification of expenditure/revenue Non-compulsory expenditure/ Differentiated appropriations. "3 6. Type of expenditure/revenue Grant of up to 100 % of the costs. However: systematic efforts are made to seek a contribution from the project beneficiaries; opportunities for cofinancing are sought with the Member States and multilateral, regional or other organizations. 7. Financial impact 7. 1 Method of calculating cost of operation: The main expenditure is made up of the remuneration and travel costs of experts highly specialized in gender and development who have to visit the developing countries to work with the administrations, EC Delegations and project staff in order to integrate gender analysis. In addition there is expenditure resulting from the cost of training or information sessions for EC personnel and/or decision-makers in the developing for development projects/programmes, the aim being to increase their ability to take account of the roles and requirements of men and women and to include this dimension throughout the project cycle. countries who are responsible There are also the costs of studies, training manuals, research and bulletins/reports which are intended to inform staff of the specific requirements and priorities of women in the ALA/MED and ACP countries. There is further expenditure linked with thematic and follow-up studies which may be requested in the context of closer coordination with the Member States and the OECD/DAC, and the costs of strategic schemes and projects to raise the awareness of decision-makers in the developing countries so that greater account is taken of women's specific requirements. 7. 2 Itemized breakdown of cost Equal distribution between eligible geographical regions is sought, and this may vary according to demand and/or priority.

Fraud prevention measures Technical checks by Commission officials, assisted by independent experts. The Commission, prior to payment, checks the grants and the receipt of services and preparatory studies, feasibility studies and evaluation reports requested, taking into account contractual obligations and applying recognized principles of economics and sound financial/general management. Fraud prevention measures (audits, submission of reports, etc. ) are included in all agreements or contracts concluded between the Commission and payment recipients. 9. Elements of cost-effectiveness analysis 9. 1 Specific and quantified objectives; target population Specific objectives : This action ties in more generally with the objective of sustainable development, the role of women being essential as a key economic, political and social factor. 4J To give support to government organizations and Community institutions in taking decisions on the integration of gender issues in development cooperation policies and programmes. This support takes the form of strategic guidelines, methodologies and working instruments, the provision of high-level technical assistance, training and awareness-raising schemes, at headquarters and the Delegations and for the local partners in the developing countries, support for particularly strategic operations, notably those intended to strengthen capacity in the developing countries for integrating gender issues in development. in Target population In order to create multiplier effects, the two target groups chosen are designers and administrators of development policies and programmes in the developing countries and within the Commission itself. In addition to these target groups, all women and local populations in the developing countries are targeted. 9. 2 Grounds for the operation Need for Community financial aid. A new aspect of development aid which could improve the quality and viability of all Community development cooperation is being taken into consideration. In view of the lack of experience available in the approach to gender issues, we have to concentrate our efforts on this type of operation. Budget heading B7-6110 (ex B7-5051 and B7-5052) was established in 1992 at the initiative of the European Parliament, which, like the Council in many conclusions and recently in the Resolution of 20 January 1995, has pointed to the need to integrate women and development issues in development cooperation. The Resolution specifically stresses the need to earmark sufficient funding for a strategic, catalytic approach, with the drawing-up of policies and methodologies, training, research, monitoring and evaluation. In acting upon "The run-up to 2000" and the Resolution of 20 December 1995, the Community is also required to improve coordination between the Community and the Member States in integrating gender issues in development. This budget heading is also intended to step up the degree to which operations financed by the Community dovetail with, and complement, those financed by the Member States. It is therefore necessary to have an appropriate financial instrument to enable the Commission to conduct the proposed operations. That is the reason for this budget heading, which, with an amount of ECU 5 million for 1997, is not intended to finance operational development projects for women, since larger amounts are needed *€ to promote their cause (principle of mainstreaming), in accordance with the Resolution of 20 December 1995. By choosing for project/policy designers and administrators, the highest possible multiplier effect is sought. target operations on capacity-building to * Advantages over possible alternatives Strategic awareness-raising schemes, aimed at integrating gender issues into the mainstream of development, are regarded as more effective than a plethora of small-scale microprojects for women, which are often very limited in their impact. * Explanatory reference to similar Community or national operations Certain Member States have a very active policy in this sphere, but a major commitment by the Commission should act as an incentive for the other Member States or suppliers of funds. The Community, for its part, must act to ensure that the operations which it finances are of good quality and will provide sufficient return, and take the utmost possible account of gender issues as they affect development as a whole. 9. 3 Monitoring and evaluation of the operation Monitoring and evaluation indicators are selected and applied in the case of each operation. Under the terms of the Council Resolution of 20 December 1995, the results obtained will be evaluated and presented to the Council every two years (first presentation: November 1997). A study was commissioned in 1996 on the implementation of the Council Resolution, and in particular: 1) the effects of the training of decision makers (Commission and local); 2) the introduction of gender analysis into the project cycle; 3) an increase in the number of projects/programmes which include a gender approach. The study identified five priorities for implementing the Resolution: the development of instruments and methodologies - training in gender analysis and gender planning for decision-makers and planners; - mainstreaming at macro and sectoral levels; - monitoring of the mainstreaming of gender issues in the design and implementation of strategies for different countries; - wider involvement of staff in the promotion and monitoring of the mainstreaming of gender issues; - greater coordination with the Member States in certain pilot countries. The priorities identified for the budget heading reflect these indications. for gender ">4 9. 4 Coherence with financial programming Is the operation incorporated in the DG's financial programming for the relevant years? Yes in the DG's financial To which broader objective defined programming does the objective of the proposed operation correspond? The proposed operation ties in with the general objectives laid down in within the framework of sustainable social and human development (Article 13 Ou of the Treaty on European Union). 10. Administrative expenditure The actual mobilization of the administrative resources required will depend on the annual Commission decision on the allocation of resources, account being taken of any additional amounts or staff allowed by the budgetary authority. 10. 1 Impact on the number of posts Operations already conducted in the form of pilot schemes by DG IB et DGVni staff.
