Traduction de «translation of department of mines » (Français → Anglais) :

– (DE) The motion for a resolution on a revised Framework Agreement between the European Parliament and the Commission for the next parliamentary term contains some reasonable starting points.

The European Parliament supported the campaign to outlaw landmines from the very beginning.

The rights of the workers and social security have been undermined, greater flexibility in labour markets have been imposed (the magical concept of ‘flexicurity’, the CPE (First Employment Contract) in France being a prime example), the increase in the actual and official retirement age has been justified, the liberalisation of the energy sector has been promoted and the liberalisation of services has been called for, thus contributing towards labour deregulation and social and environmental dumping.

I am disappointed, however, that my amendment on landmines was not accepted – the EUR 3.15 million – because that would take us up to the amount to which we had originally committed ourselves.

While the use of land mines began as a counter to tanks, the use of anti-personnel land mines have become increasingly popular.

7. In order to achieve improved coordination, the Council recommends action along the following lines: - at the global level, initiatives to further the creation of a broadly agreed international planning strategy and information systems taking account of all major international actors involved in this field, while recognizing the important role of the Department of Humanitarian Affairs of the United Nations Secretariat (UN-DHA) as the focal point in the United Nations for coordinating de-mining and related issues, - at the Community level, the creation of a specific framework for coordination of development aspects of the APL question, ...[+++]which should be based on the following elements: = the development of a GIS (Geographical Information System) database which will provide a mechanism for collating and exchanging mine information and will enhance planning and coordination between the Commission, Member States, and the international community, including, in particular, the UN-DHA, = in-country coordination between Commission Delegations, Member States Representations, host nation authorities and all relevant agencies, fully respecting the mandates of competent international organizations, = appropriate networking and consultation between Member States and the Commission using the above management tools, = testing of these operational coordination mechanisms on a pilot basis.
