Om met de praktische voorbereidingen voor de omschakeling op de euro voortgang te boeken, worden de nationale autoriteiten verzocht de voortzetting van een intensieve dialoog tussen consumentenverenigingen en beroeps- en bedrijfsorganisaties aan te moedigen. De Commissie zal harerzijds deze dialoog op Gemeenschaps- niveau blijven bevorderen en zal de lidstaten uitnodigen om met de resultaten daarvan rekening te houden; 2. In het raam van die dialoog worden de consumen- tenverenigingen en de beroeps- en bedrijfsorganisaties uitgenodigd te onderhandelen en, in voorkomend geval, afspraken te maken over beginselen voor goede praktijken op het gebied van dubbele prijsaanduiding en van beta- ling en te komen tot vaststelling van minimumnormen voor informatieverstrekking; 3. De ondernemingen worden uitgenodigd om op het ge(cid:137)igende niveau te onderhandelen om de beginselen vast te stellen die voor de kleine ondernemingen de omscha- keling op de euro vergemakkelijken. Deze beginselen zouden met name ten doel moeten hebben: a) dat een onderneming haar commerci(cid:137)le partners, vooral indien deze kleine ondernemingen zijn, van tevoren ervan in kennis stelt dat haar facturen uitslui- tend in euro luiden, respectievelijk dat zij uitsluitend in euro luidende facturen aanvaardt, zodat haar part- ners zich behoorlijk daarop kunnen voorbereiden; b) dat, wanneer een kleine onderneming haar commer- ci(cid:137)le partners mocht verzoeken om op hun facturen naast de prijzen in euro ook die prijzen in nationale munt te blijven aangeven, deze aan dat verzoek tege- moet behoeven te komen; c) dat de grote ondernemingen hun onderaannemers, respectievelijk toeleveranciers de nodige bijstand verlenen om de overgang naar de euro voor deze cate- gorie te vergemakkelijken. Artikel 2 Waarnemingsposten en het volgen 1. De lidstaten, met inbegrip, in voorkomend geval, van de lagere territoriale overheden, worden uitgenodigd adequate middelen ter beschikking te stellen, met name, als een middel bij uitstek, waarnemingsposten voor de overschakeling op de euro om het volgen van de invoe- ring van de euro, van de eerlijkheid van de transacties en van de transparantie van de praktijken van bedrijfs- en beroepskringen mogelijk te maken. 2. Elke waarnemingspost zou daartoe alle betrokken bedrijfs- en beroepssectoren, de betrokken overheidsdien- sten en de burgers, waaronder de vertegenwoordigers van het verenigingsleven, met name van de consumenten erbij moeten betrekken. 1. 5. 98 ‹ ‹NL Publicatieblad van de Europese Gemeenschappen L 130/31 verrichten: taken moeten 3. Waarnemingsposten zouden op plaatselijk niveau de volgende als aanspreekpunt; verwijzing naar informatiebronnen; het aanhoren, het verlenen van bemiddeling en het bijstaan van de burgers. Aan de hand van een praktijkevaluatie zouden zij de betrokken nationale en communautaire instanties deelgenoot van hun ervaringen moeten kunnen maken. optreden Teneinde het toezicht op de tenuitvoerlegging door 4. de banken van de beginselen van een goede praktijk op het gebied van bankkosten voor de omrekening in euro te vergemakkelijken, door naast de andere, voor het volgen reeds genomen maatregelen de nationale en Europese te nodigen onverwijld aan de bankverenigingen uit verzoeken van de Commissie om informatie over de met de tenuitvoerlegging hiervan geboekte vooruitgang, gevolg te geven. Teneinde v(cid:155)(cid:155)r eind 1998 voor de eerste maal een onderzoek aan tenuitvoerlegging van die beginselen te kunnen wijden, worden de nationale bankverenigingen bijgevolg verzocht om de Commissie v(cid:155)(cid:155)r 1 november 1998 via hun Europese organisaties verslag uit te brengen over de wijze waarop de banken voornemens zijn deze beginselen ten uitvoer te leggen. 5. De lidstaten worden uitgenodigd de tenuitvoerleg- ging van de beginselen van een goede praktijk en de daar- over door de banken verstrekte informatie aandachtig te volgen. Artikel 3 Voorlichting en opleiding 1. Gezien de specifieke moeilijkheden waarmee de kleine ondernemingen bij hun interne voorbereiding op de overschakeling op de euro worden geconfronteerd en gelet op de moeilijkheden voor deze categorie om toegang tot de traditionele informatiebronnen krijgen, worden de gespecialiseerde instanties, waaronder de kamers van koophandel, en de instellingen die met deze kleine ondernemingen in contact staan, uitgenodigd om hun inspanningen op het gebied van voorlichting- en bewust- making, in de vorm van gerichte acties voort te zetten waarbij het accent bij de te ondernemen concrete voorbe- reidingen dient te worden gelegd; een ander geldt mede voor het geven van adviezen en hulp bij het stellen van diagnoses. 2. De lidstaten wordt verzocht zo spoedig mogelijk ervoor zorg te dragen dat in de onderwijs- en vormings- stelsels aan het thema euro de volle aandacht wordt besteed en alle dienstige maatregelen te nemen om de leerkrachten en ander schoolpersoneel daarop attentief te maken, hen voor te lichten en op te leiden. 3. De acties op het gebied van de vorming zouden in specifieke maatregelen dienen te voorzien voor alle vormen van vorming, zoals afstandsonderwijs, volwassene- neducatie, hoger onderwijs, beroeps- en alternerende opleiding. De nieuwe informatietechnologie(cid:137)n zouden moeten worden aangewend zowel om de leerkrachten attent te maken en op te leiden als om de jongeren voor- lichting te bieden. De lidstaten worden uitgenodigd ook lesmateriaal samen te stellen dat gemakkelijk door de leerkrachten bij hun taak kan worden gebruikt. Het zou eveneens wenselijk zijn dat bijzondere aandacht wordt besteed aan kinderen die in de marge van het schoolsysteem verkeren, door adequate maatregelen voor hun voorlichting te treffen. Artikel 4 Slotbepaling De lidstaten wordt verzocht aan de tenuitvoerlegging van deze aanbeveling hun steun te verlenen. Artikel 5 Adressaten Deze aanbeveling is gericht tot de lidstaten, de beroeps- en bedrijfsorganisaties, de consumentenorganisaties, de kamers van koophandel, de bankverenigingen, de onder- nemingen en aan alle andere organisaties of instellingen die met de ondernemingen in contact staan.
