To encourage and promote the development of trade and for the mutual benefit of all parties concerned, a consultation meeting will be organised three months before the beginning of each marketing year in the Community. This consultation meeting will take place between the European Commission and the interested European producers’ organisations for the products concerned, on the one part, and the authorities’, producers’ and exporters’ organisations of all the associated exporting countries, on the other part. During this consultation meeting, the market situation for soft fruit including, in particular, forecasts for production, stock situation, price evolution and possible market development, as well as possibilities to adapt supply to demand, will be discussed. 16. 11. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities L 306/47 Exchange of letters between the European Community and the Slovak Republic regarding entry prices applied to the import of fruit and vegetables into the Community Sir, A. Letter from the Community The Agreement on the adaptation of the agricultural part of the Europe Agreement following the implementation of the Uruguay Round and the enlargement of the European Community signed today between the European Community and the Slovak Republic does not contain any provisions regarding the entry price regime applied to the import of fruit and vegetables into the Community. It has been agreed that the Parties will continue consultations on this sector in order to find a solution. Taking into account, inter alia, the experience of the last marketing years, the solution should allow the continuation of trade relations traditionally established between the Community and the Slovak Republic for the products concerned. In the meantime, the Slovak Republic will not be treated less favourably than other associated countries in this context. In addition, both parties will continue talks in the framework of the relevant procedures of the Europe Agreement on any other unresolved issues in order to find as soon as possible mutually acceptable solutions. I should be obliged if you would confirm the agreement of the Government of the Slovak Republic to the contents of this letter. Please accept, Sir, the assurance of my highest consideration.

Letter from the government of the Slovak Republic Sir, I have the honour to acknowledge receipt of your letter of today’s date which reads as follows: “The Agreement on the adaptation of the agricultural part of the Europe Agreement following the implementation of the Uruguay Round and the enlargement of the European Community signed today between the European Community and the Slovak Republic does not contain any provisions regarding the entry price regime applied to the import of fruit and vegetables into the Community. It has been agreed that the Parties will continue consultations on this sector in order to find a solution. Taking into account, inter alia, the experience of the last marketing years, the solution should allow the continuation of trade relations traditionally established between the Community and the Slovak Republic for the products concerned. In the meantime, the Slovak Republic will not be treated less favourably than other associated countries in this context. In addition, both parties will continue talks in the framework of the relevant procedures of the Europe Agreement on any other unresolved issues in order to find as soon as possible mutually acceptable solutions. I should be obliged if you would confirm the agreement of the Government of the Slovak Republic to the contents of this letter. ” I have the honour to confirm that the Government of the Slovak Republic is in agreement with the contents of this letter. Please accept, Sir, the assurance of my highest consideration. On behalf of the Government of the Slovak Republic’ ANNEX H ‘ANNEX XII List of Slovak concessions referred to in Article 21 Imports into the Slovak Republic of the following products originating in the Community shall be subject to the concessions set out below: CN code Description (1) Reduced duty ad valorem from 1. 7. 1996 Reduced duty ad valorem 1997 Reduced duty ad valorem 1998 Reduced duty ad valorem 1999 Reduced duty ad valorem from 2000 Annual quantity (tonnes) 0203 19 55 0203 29 55 Meat of swine Milk powder 0402 10 0402 21 0402 29 0403 10 11 Yoghurts 0403 10 13 0403 10 19 0403 10 31 0403 10 33 0403 10 39 0403 90 11 Other 0403 90 13 0403 90 19 0403 90 31 0403 90 33 0403 90 39 0403 90 51 0403 90 53 0403 90 59 0403 90 61 0403 90 63 0403 90 69 Unlimited 200 Unlimited Unlimited 15 24 5 5 5 5 5 5 14,2 14,2 14,2 14,2 14,2 14,2 14,2 14,2 14,2 14,2 14,2 14,2 15 24 5 5 5 5 5 5 13,8 13,8 13,8 13,8 13,8 13,8 13,8 13,8 13,8 13,8 13,8 13,8 15 24 5 5 5 5 5 5 13,4 13,4 13,4 13,4 13,4 13,4 13,4 13,4 13,4 13,4 13,4 13,4 15 24 5 5 5 5 5 5 13 13 13 13 13 13 13 13 13 13 13 13 15 24 5 5 5 5 5 5 12,5 12,5 12,5 12,5 12,5 12,5 12,5 12,5 12,5 12,5 12,5 12,5. 1 6 1 1 9 8.

text: C 142/94 Amtsblatt der Europäischen Gemeinschaften DE 21. 5. 1999 Gedenkt die Kommission initiativ zu werden, um den zuvor erwähnten erweiterten Plan zur Brandbe- kämpfung unter ihre Schirmherrschaft zu stellen, und dabei zu berücksichtigen, daß der zu erwartende Klimawandel eine weitere Zunahme der Waldbrände im Mittelmeerraum mit sich bringen dürfte? Antwort von Frau Bjerregaard im Namen der Kommission (27. November 1998) Die Kommission unterstützt die Mitgliedstaaten auf dem Gebiet der Waldbrandbekämpfung seit mehreren Jahren. Insbesondere in den südlichen Mitgliedstaaten wurden Fortbildungsseminare (self-tuition work- shops) veranstaltet, die Erfahrungsaustausche ermöglichten, und 1996 wurde ein System zum Austausch von Sachverständigen eingeführt. Außerdem wird unter Mitwirkung der Kommission jeden Sommer ein System zum Austausch von Informationen über die Risikostufen zwischen den Mitgliedstaaten einge- richtet. Die Kommission fördert die Hilfeleistung zwischen Mitgliedstaaten im Falle von Waldbränden umso mehr, als mit ihrem Beistand 1994 zwischen Italien und Frankreich eine Verwaltungsvereinbarung über die gemeinsame Verwendung von Einrichtungen zur Waldbrandbekämpfung aus der Luft abgeschlossen werden konnte. Im Rahmen des laufenden Aktionsprogrammes der Gemeinschaft für den Katastrophenschutz ist die Kommission bereit, zusätzliche Hilfe zu gewähren und jede Initiative zu unterstützen, die die Zusam- menarbeit zwischen Mitgliedstaaten im Hinblick auf die Verbesserung der Wirksamkeit ihrer Maßnahmen und die Minderung der Auswirkungen solcher Katastrophen ermöglicht. (1999/C 142/114) SCHRIFTLICHE ANFRAGE E-3152/98 von Glenys Kinnock (PSE) an die Kommission (19. Oktober 1998) Betrifft: Ausmerzung der Kinderlähmung Im Jahr 1998 leitete die Weltgesundheitsorganisation eine Initiative zur Ausmerzung der Kinderlähmung bis zum Jahre 2000 ein. Obwohl bisher die Anzahl der Polio-Fälle um 90 % zurückgegangen ist, konnte das Endziel noch nicht erreicht werden. Kann die Kommission daher ihren Einsatz zur Bekämpfung der Kinderlähmung in der Dritten Welt darlegen und mitteilen, welche finanziellen Zusagen sie bisher zur Lösung dieses Problems gegeben hat? (1999/C 142/115) SCHRIFTLICHE ANFRAGE P-3282/98 von Gary Titley (PSE) an die Kommission (26. Oktober 1998) Betrifft: Finanzierung von Schutzimpfungsprogrammen durch die EU Wieviel Geld gibt die EU derzeit für Programme für Schutzimpfungen gegen Krankheiten wie Polio in Europa und im Rest der Welt aus? Gibt es irgendwelche Pläne in der EU, mehr Finanzmittel für Polio-Schutzimpfungen bereitzustellen, um zur Erreichung des auf dem Weltkindergipfel von 1990 gesteckten Zieles der Ausrottung des Polio- Erregers bis zum Jahr 2000 beizutragen?

O Decreto-Lei 94/96, adoptado em 17 de Julho de 1996, transpõe esta directiva para o direito português. A Comissão considera que o decreto português satisfaz inteiramente os requisitos da directiva e não tem motivos para duvidar que o mesmo esteja a ser cabalmente aplicado. (1) JO L 247 de 5. 10. 1993. (1999/C 289/038) PERGUNTA ESCRITA P-3243/98 apresentada por Anna Karamanou (PSE) à Comissão (19 de Outubro de 1998) Objecto: Exploração do trabalho infantil Segundo uma denúncia recente de Dervis Kaplan, dirigente do movimento sindical de Istambul, crianças de 9 a 13 anos de idade trabalham numa cadeia turca de confecção que trabalha para a grande empresa italiana Benetton com a agravante de lhes serem auferidos salários particularmente baixos. A exploração do trabalho infantil é um fenómeno intenso, uma vez que de acordo com um estudo recente da Organização Internacional do Trabalho, a nível mundial, cerca de 250 milhões de crianças de 5 a 14 anos trabalham em condições duras e com remunerações extremamente baixas e 120 milhões são obrigadas a abandonar a escola para trabalhar. Pergunta-se à Comissão que medidas tenciona tomar para fazer face à odiosa exploração do trabalho infantil pelas grandes empresas multinacionais e assegurar a protecção dos direitos das crianças? Resposta de Hans van den Broek em nome da Comissão (10 de Novembro de 1998) A Comissão teve recentemente conhecimento dos factos comunicado pelo Senhor Deputado. O trabalho infantil na Turquia foi já, nomeadamente, objecto de diversas críticas por parte da OMT. Com base nas informações recolhidas pela Comissão, a empresa Benetton assinou um memorando com a empresa turca depositária da sua licença na Turquia a fim de suspender qualquer tipo de relações contratuais com as empresas de subcontratação que utilizam a mão-de-obra de crianças de menos de quinze anos. A Comissão, por seu turno, deu início, no decurso dos últimos anos, a diversas acções e iniciativas no sector do trabalho infantil ( documento dos serviços da Comissão, actualizado em 11 de Maio de 1998, que a Comissão transmitirá directamente ao Senhor Deputadoe e ao Secretário-Geral do Parlamento). (1999/C 289/039) PERGUNTA ESCRITA P-3250/98 apresentada por Alexandros Alavanos (GUE/NGL) à Comissão (20 de Outubro de 1998) Objecto: Ajuda alimentar à Rússia A UE propõe-se enviar ajuda alimentar à Rússia para que esta possa cobrir as suas necessidades e, segundo informações tornadas públicas, a ajuda diz principalmente respeito a produtos pecuários (carne e leite) e cereais, não se prevendo a participação de produtos mediterrânicos como os citrinos, os produtos hortícolas e o azeite que, a serem incluídos, terão uma participação extremamente limitada
