2010/0067(CNS) Enhanced cooperation in the area of the law applicable to divorce and legal separation. Implementing rules. Council Regulation
2010/11/19
LIBE
6 amendments...
Amendment 12 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 14 (14) Spouses should be able to choose the law of a country with which they have a special connection or the lex fori as the law applicable to divorce and legal separation. The law chosen by the spouses must be consonant with the fundamental rights enshrined in the Treaties and the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. The possibility of choosing the law applicable to divorce and legal separation should not harm the superior interests of the child. In particular, when the divorce or the separation involve any children of the spouses, the law applicable to the divorce and legal separation must be chosen by taking account of the principles laid down in Article 24 of the Charter, placing emphasis on the best interests of the children, the duty to hear their opinion in decisions which concern them and the right to maintain regular personal relations and direct contact with both parents, unless it is against their interest to do so.
Amendment 17 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 15 (15) Before designating the applicable law, it is important for spouses to have access to up-to-date information concerning the essential aspects of national and Union law and of the procedures governing divorce and legal separation, including the option of mediation. To guarantee such access to appropriate, good-quality information, the Commission regularly updates it in the Internet-based public information system set up by Council Decision 2001/470/EC.
Amendment 21 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 18 a (new) (18а) The agreement between the spouses designating the law applicable to the divorce and legal separation should in any case refer to the option of having recourse to mediation before, during or after the court proceedings. To that end it would be advisable to refer to the concepts defined in Directive 2008/52/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 May 2008 on certain aspects of mediation in civil and commercial matters1, and to the European Code of Conduct for Mediators. _________ 1 OJ L 136, 24.5.2008, p. 3.
Amendment 26 #
Proposal for a regulation Article 3 – paragraph 1 – introductory wording 1. The spouses may choose by mutual agreement the law applicable to divorce and legal separation, provided that such law is in conformity with the fundamental rights defined in the Treaties and in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union – in particular, by placing emphasis first and foremost on the best interest of the children of the spouses, as provided for in Article 24 of the Charter – and with the principle of public policy, from among the following laws:
Amendment 31 #
Proposal for a regulation Article 3 – paragraph 2 2. Without prejudice to paragraph 4, an agreement designating the applicable law may be concluded and modified at any time, but at the latest when the court is seised. The agreement must consider the option of having recourse to mediation in order to settle any disagreements concerning the divorce or separation.
Amendment 33 #
Proposal for a regulation Article 3 – paragraph 4 4. If the lex fori so provides, the spouses may also designate the law applicable before the court during the course of the proceeding. In that event, such designation shall be recorded in court in accordance with the lex fori, including reference to the option of having recourse to mediation.

Amendment 262 #
Proposal for a directive Article 14 Member States shall require employers of seasonal workers to provide evidence that the seasonal worker will benefit from accommodation that ensures an adequate standard of living, under decent health and hygiene conditions certified by the competent authorities. If seasonal workers are required to pay rent for such accommodation, its cost shall not be excessive in relation to their remuneration and in any case should enable the workers to live freely and with dignity.

Amendment 70 #
Motion for a resolution Recital D a (new) Da. whereas in many parts of Europe, particularly in and around metropolitan areas, many Roma communities find it difficult – and have little inclination – to integrate, whereas this difficulty is often manifested in the setting-up of unauthorised camps in extremely unhygienic and insanitary conditions and illegal behaviour and actions which undermine the safety of local communities, particularly exploitation of minors for the purpose of begging, theft, pickpocketing and prostitution, and whereas, by means of strong family ties, people in difficulties often reject the pathways to integration offered to them by local authorities,

Proposal for a regulation Recital 21 (21) Where no applicable law is chosen, and with a view to reconciling predictability and legal certainty with consideration of the life actually lived by the couple, this Regulation must introduce harmonised conflict-of-laws rules to establish the law applicable to all the spouses' property on the basis of a scale of connecting factors.

Amendment 106 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 2 a (new) (2a) This Directive is part of a legislative package which aims at strengthening the rights of victims in the Union. In implementing it, Member States should take account of Directive 2011/92/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 December 2011 on combating the sexual abuse and sexual exploitation of children and child pornography1. ______________ 1 OJ L 335, 17.12.11, p.1.
Amendment 124 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 9 (9) A person should be considered a victim regardless of whether a perpetrator is identified, apprehended, prosecuted or convicted and regardless of the familial relationship between the perpetrator and the victim.

Proposal for a directive Recital 1 (1) The recent financial crisis has led to debates at all levels about a possible additional tax on the financial sector and in particular a financial transactions tax (FTT).

Proposal for a regulation Recital 1 a (new) (1a) The aims of this regulation take on increasing importance in view of the frequency of attempts to illegally cross the EU's external borders and given that the criminal networks involved in the facilitation of illegal migration are often also involved in trafficking in human beings, drugs and nuclear material and in supporting terrorist groups.

2011/0437(COD) Award of concession contracts
2012/10/19
REGI
4 amendments...
Amendment 12 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 13 (13) It is appropriate to exclude from the scope of this Directive certain services concessions awarded to an economic operator which is itself a contracting authority or a contracting entity on the basis of an exclusive right which that operator enjoys under published national law or administrative act, as is the case with concessions on State-owned maritime property for tourism and leisure use, and which has been granted in accordance with the Treaty and Union sectoral legislation concerning the management of networks infrastructure related to the activities set out in annex III, since such exclusive right makes it impossible to follow a competitive procedure for the award. By way of derogation and without prejudice to the legal consequences of the general exclusion from the scope of this Directive, concessions as defined in article 8 (1) should be subject to the obligation to publish a concession award notice in view of ensuring basic transparency unless the conditions of such transparency are provided for in sectoral legislation.
Amendment 15 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 19 (19) In view of the detrimental effects on competition, awarding concessions without prior publication should only be permitted in very exceptional circumstances. This exception should be limited to cases where it is clear from the outset that a publication would not trigger more competition, notably because there is objectively only one economic operator who can perform the concession, as is the case with owners of seaside businesses set up on property under concession. Only situations of objective exclusivity can justify the award of a concession without publication to an economic operator, where the situation of exclusivity has not been created by the contracting authority or contracting entity itself in view of the future award procedure, and where there are no adequate substitutes, the availability of which should be assessed thoroughly.
Amendment 29 #
Proposal for a directive Article 6 – paragraph 5 5. With regard to public works concessions and works concessions, calculation of the estimated value shall take account of both the cost of the works and the total estimated value of the supplies and services that are made available to the contractor by the contracting authorities or entities provided that they are necessary for executing the works. In the case of public property concessions for the provision of services to the public, the threshold shall be estimated and calculated on an annual basis.
Amendment 63 #
Proposal for a directive Article 26 – paragraph 5 – subparagraph 1 – point c a (new) (ca) where the public property under concession has been assigned for the provision of seaside tourism services on the initiative and at the request of an economic operator and has become a prerequisite for the operator’s business to the extent that, were the operator to lose the concession, it would forfeit the right of ownership of the business.

Amendment 39 #

Amendment 139 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 25 25. Calls on the Commission, prior to the introduction of any card solely at the request of the representatives of the respective professions, to provide evidence, through a thorough impact assessment, of the possible added value for the recognition process, beyond that provided by an enhanced IMI, of a voluntary card for certain professionals and competent authorities; argues that the impact assessment must address the concerns raised in the consultation and by numerous other stakeholders, assess the merits of an ‘e-card’, provide a cost-benefit analysis, specify its potential features and explain exactly how data protection and consumer safety would be ensured;

2012/0192(COD) Clinical trials on medicinal products for human use
2013/03/01
ENVI
37 amendments...
Amendment 82 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 2 (2) In order to allow for independent control as to whether these principles are adhered to, a clinical trial should be subject to prior authorisation. This authorisation should include scientific, ethical and administrative aspects.
Amendment 87 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 5 (5) Experience with Directive 2001/20/EC has also shown that the aim of simplifying and harmonising the
Amendment 89 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 6 (6) The Member States concerned should cooperate in assessing a request for authorisation of a clinical trial. This cooperation should not include aspects of an intrinsically national nature
Amendment 98 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 9 (9) The risk to subject safety in a clinical trial mainly stems from two sources: the investigational medicinal product and the intervention. Many clinical trials, however, pose only a minimal additional risk to subject safety compared to normal clinical practice. This is in particular the case where the investigational medicinal product is covered by a marketing authorisation (i.e. the quality, safety and efficacy has already been assessed in the course of the marketing authorisation procedure) and where the intervention poses only very limited additional risk to the subject compared to normal clinical practice. Those ‘low-intervention clinical trials’ are often of crucial importance to assess standard treatments and diagnoses, thereby optimising the use of medicinal products and thus contributing to a high level of public health. They should be subject to less stringent administrative rules, such as shorter deadlines for approval.
Amendment 117 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 13 (13) The authorisation of a clinical trial should address all aspects in relation to subject protection and data reliability and robustness. The permission to conduct a clinical trial should therefore be contained in one single
Amendment 118 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 14 (14) It should be left to the Member State concerned to determine the appropriate body or bodies to be involved in this assessment. These bodies should be established according to the ICH Topic E 6 (R1) Guideline for Good Clinical Practice, which details the responsibilities, composition, functions, operations and procedures. This decision is a matter of internal organisation of each Member State. Member States, when determining the appropriate body or bodies, should ensure the involvement of lay persons and patients. They should also ensure that the necessary expertise is available. In any case, however, and in accordance with international guidelines, the assessment should be done jointly by a reasonable number of persons who collectively have the necessary qualifications and experience. The persons assessing the application should be independent from the sponsor, the institution of the trial site, and the investigators involved, as well as free of any other undue influence.
Amendment 122 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 22 (22) The human dignity and right to the integrity of the person are recognized in the Charter of Fundamental rights of the European Union. In particular, the Charter requires that any intervention in the field of biology and medicine cannot be performed without free and informed consent of the person concerned.
Amendment 128 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 24 (24) In accordance with international guidelines, the free and informed consent of the subject should be given in writing, save in exceptional situations. It should be based on information which is clear, relevant and understandable to the subject. Where possible, such information should be given orally, with the opportunity for the subject to ask questions, and the subject should be provided with comprehensive written information which he or she is allowed to keep. Adequate time should be provided for the subject to consider his or her decision.
Amendment 130 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 24 a (new) (24a) In accordance to the Ethical Recommendations (EC, 2008) and in addition to what is stated before, in paediatric clinical trials appropriate procedures on the informed assent should be applied. These procedures should take into account the age and maturity of children.
Amendment 135 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 29 (29) The members of the International Conference on Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) have agreed on a detailed set of guidelines for good clinical practice which are now an internationally accepted standard for designing, conducting, recording and reporting clinical trials, consistent with principles that have their origin in the World Medical Association's Declaration of Helsinki.

Amendment 161 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 47 (47) At present, such damage compensation is provided by way of insurance. This insurance may cover damages to be paid to the subject by the sponsor and investigator in the case of established liability. It may also compensate the subject directly without prior establishment of the liability of the sponsor or investigator. Compensation may also cover medical care for long or medium term physical injuries, pain and suffering. Experience shows that the insurance market is small and costs for insurance coverage are disproportionately high. Moreover, as liability regimes differ widely between Member States, it is difficult and burdensome for the sponsor of a multinational trial to obtain insurance in accordance with those national laws. Therefore, each Member State should establish a national indemnification mechanism which compensates subjects in accordance with the laws of that Member State, and provide patients with clear and accessible information to facilitate the access to the compensation systems.
Amendment 177 #
Proposal for a regulation Recital 63 (63) This Regulation is in accordance with the Convention on Human Rights and Biomedecine (1997) and its Additional Protocol on biomedical research (2005) of the Council of Europe and the International Convention on the rights of the Child (UN-1989). It is line with the major international guidance documents on clinical trials, such as the most recent (2008) version of the World Medical Association's Declaration of Helsinki and ICH-GCP good clinical practice, which has its origins in the Declaration of Helsinki. The WHO-CIOMS guidelines are also taken into account.
