2008/0193(COD) Health and safety at work: workers who are pregnant, have recently given birth or are breastfeeding
2009/12/15
FEMM
16 amendments...
Amendment 85 #
Proposal for a directive – amending act Recital 6 a (new) (6a) The rules on maternity leave under this Directive are drawn up to take account of the fact that additional periods of maternity leave that are not required for health reasons would put women at a considerable disadvantage in the job market.
Amendment 87 #
Proposal for a directive – amending act Recital 6 b (new) (6b) The rules on maternity leave under this Directive are drawn up to take account of the fact that Council Directive 96/34/EC of 3 June 1996 on the framework agreement on parental leave concluded by UNICE, CEEP and the ETUC1, based on an agreement between the social partners, already provides sufficient regulation at European level on compatibility of family and work. Exemplary rules in many Member States allow family life to be compatible with work through a combination of maternity leave, parental leave, family allowances or other models. _______________________ 1 OJ L 145, 19.6.1996, p. 4.
Amendment 88 #
Proposal for a directive – amending act Recital 6 c (new) (6c) The rules on maternity leave under this Directive are drawn up to take account of the fact that women will be effectively encouraged to return to work not by longer periods of maternity leave, but by better childcare facilities, e.g. for children under three.

The increased vulnerability of working mothers of disabled children means that they should be granted additional maternity leave; the Directive should lay down the minimum period of such leave.

Amendment 123 #
Proposal for a directive – amending act Article 1 – point 1 Directive 92/85/EEC Article 8 – paragraph 1 a (new) 1a. With respect to the last four weeks of the period referred to in paragraph 1, a scheme of family-related leave available at national level may be considered to be maternity leave for the purposes of this Directive, on condition that it provides an overall protection to workers, within the meaning of Article 2 of this Directive, that is equivalent to the level laid down in this Directive. In this case, the total period of leave granted must exceed the period of parental leave provided for in Directive 96/34/EC. The remuneration for the last four weeks of maternity leave shall be no lower than the allowance referred to in Article 11(3) or, alternatively, it may be the average of the remuneration for the 18 weeks of maternity leave, which shall be at least two thirds of the last monthly salary or of the average monthly salary as stipulated according to national law, subject to any ceiling laid down under national legislation. The Member States may lay down the periods over which the average monthly salaries are calculated.

Amendment 595 #
Proposal for a decision Annex 1 – section 3 – point 1 – paragraph 3 An increasing disease and disability burden in the context of an aging population places further demands on health and care sectors. If effective health and care is to be maintained for all ages, efforts are required to improve decision making in prevention and treatment provision, to identify and support the dissemination of best practice in the healthcare sector, and to support integrated care also including interventions of complementary and alternative medicine and the uptake of technological, organisational and social innovations empowering older persons in particular to remain active and independent. Doing so will contribute to increasing, and lengthening the duration of their physical, social, and mental well- being.
Amendment 608 #
Proposal for a decision Annex 1 – section 3 – point 1 – point 1.2 – paragraph 1 The development of screening programmes depends on the identification of early biomarkers of risk and of disease onset, and their deployment depends on the testing and validation of screening methods and programmes. Identifying individuals and populations at high-risk of disease will allow personalised, stratified and collective strategies for efficacious and cost effective disease prevention to be developed. In this connection, priority will be given to screening programmes where prevention or therapy for the patient concerned are available or are likely to be developed.
Amendment 619 #
Proposal for a decision Annex 1 – section 3 – point 1 – point 1.6 – paragraph 1 An improved understanding of health, disease and disease processes at all ages is needed to develop new and more effective diagnostics. Innovative and existing technologies will be developed with the goal of significantly improving disease outcomes through earlier, more accurate diagnosis and by allowing for more patient-adapted treatment. In this connection, priority will be given to diagnostic methods where prevention or therapeutic measures for the patients concerned are available or are likely to be available in the near future.
Amendment 627 #
Proposal for a decision Annex 1 – section 3 – point 1 – point 1.8 – paragraph 1 There is a need to support the improvement of cross-cutting support technologies for drugs, vaccines and other therapeutic approaches, including transplantation, gene and cell therapy, particularly adult stem cell therapy, umbilical cord blood cell and iPS cell therapies; to increase success in the drug and vaccine development process (including alternative methods to replace classical safety and effectiveness testing e.g. the development of new methods); to develop regenerative medicine approaches, including approaches based on stem cells; to develop improved medical and assistive devices and systems; to maintain and enhance our ability to combat communicable, rare, major and chronic diseases and undertake medical interventions that depend on the availability of effective antimicrobial drugs; and to develop comprehensive approaches to treat co-morbidities at all ages and avoid poly-pharmacy. These improvements will facilitate the development of new, more efficient, effective and sustainable treatments for disease and for the management of disability. There is a need to develop ideas in the field of regenerative medicine, particularly based on adult stem cells, umbilical cord blood cells and iPS cells.
Amendment 633 #
Proposal for a decision Annex 1 – section 3 – point 1 – point 1.8 – paragraph 1 There is a need to support the improvement of cross-cutting support technologies for drugs, vaccines and other therapeutic approaches, including transplantation, gene and cell therapy; to increase success in the drug and vaccine development process (including alternative methods to replace classical safety and effectiveness testing e.g. the development of new methods); to develop regenerative medicine approaches, including approaches based on stem cells; to develop improved medical and assistive devices and systems; to maintain and enhance our ability to combat communicable, rare, major and chronic diseases and undertake medical interventions that depend on the availability of effective antimicrobial drugs; and to develop comprehensive approaches to treat co-morbidities at all ages and avoid poly-pharmacy in due consideration of complementary and alternative medicine. These improvements will facilitate the development of new, more efficient, effective and sustainable treatments for disease and for the management of disability.
Amendment 639 #
Proposal for a decision Annex 1 – section 3 – point 1 – point 1.9 – paragraph 1 Clinical trials are the means to transfer biomedical knowledge to application in patients and support for these will be provided, as well as for the improvement of their practice. Examples include the development of better methodologies to allow trials to focus on relevant population groups, including those suffering from other concomitant diseases and/or already undergoing treatment, the determination of comparative effectiveness of interventions and solutions, as well as enhancing the use of databases and electronic health records as data sources for trials and knowledge transfer. Similarly, support for the transfer of other types of interventions such as those related to independent living into real world environments will be provided. Particular importance will be given to clinical tests in the field of rare diseases and child illnesses including those associated with premature birth.
Amendment 650 #
Proposal for a decision Annex 1 – section 3 – point 1 – point 1.14 – paragraph 1 Supporting the management of chronic disease outside institutions also depends on improved cooperation between the providers of health comprising providers of complementary and alternative medicine and social or informal care.

Proposal for a decision Annex 1 – section 3 – point 5 – point 5.2 – title 5.2. Sustainably managing natural and tangible cultural heritage resources and ecosystems:
Amendment 854 #
Proposal for a decision Annex 1 – section 3 – point 5 – point 5.2 – paragraph 1 Societies face a major challenge to establish a sustainable balance between human needs and the environment. Environmental resources, including water, air, biomass, fertile soils, biodiversity, ecosystems as well as man-made resources, including tangible cultural heritage and cultural landscapes, and the services they provide, underpin the functioning of the European and global economy and quality of life. Global business opportunities related to natural resources are expected to amount to over EUR 2 trillion by 2050. The European business sector related to cultural heritage and creative economy is responsible for 3,3% GDP in Europe (European Competitiveness Report 2010, p. 166; 191) whereas the turnover from tourism due to cultural heritage activities is EUR 338 billion p.a. (Directorate for Cultural Heritage, Norway: Cultural Heritage Monuments and Historic buildings as value generators in a post-industrial economy, p. 5). Despite this, ecosystems in Europe and globally are being degraded beyond nature's ability to regenerate them and environmental resources are being over-exploited. For example, 1000 km² of some of the most fertile soils and valuable ecosystems are lost every year in the Union, while a quarter of fresh water is wasted. Continuing these patterns is not an option. Research must contribute to reversing the trends that damage the environment and to ensuring that ecosystems continue to provide the resources, goods and services that are essential for well-being and economic prosperity.
Amendment 856 #
Proposal for a decision Annex 1 – section 3 – point 5 – point 5.2 – paragraph 2 The aim of this activity is therefore to provide knowledge for the management of natural and cultural resources that achieves a sustainable balance between limited non renewable resources and the needs of society and the economy.
Amendment 861 #
Proposal for a decision Annex 1 – section 3 – point 5 – point 5.2 – point 5.2.1 – paragraph 1 a (new) In this context, cultural heritage is seen as an essential part of the environmental context and its preservation as a tangible contribution to a sustainable economy and human wellbeing in Europe.
Amendment 864 #
Proposal for a decision Annex 1 – section 3 – point 5 – point 5.2 – point 5.2.2 – paragraph 1 Social, economic and governance systems still need to address both resource depletion and the damage to ecosystems.

Amendment 16 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 6 a (new) (6a) National regulations on access to public documents are based on transparency and freedom of information. In some cases, however, this right is restricted, for example to those who have a particular interest in these documents or in cases in which the documents contain sensitive information relating, for example, to national or public security.
Amendment 18 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 6 b (new) (6b) Directive 2003/98/EC does not contain an obligation for Member States to digitise analogue material which they have available, or to make it machine- readable in a technologically neutral manner. Public sector bodies may themselves decide what data are to be digitised when and under what conditions.
Amendment 19 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 6 c (new) (6c) Directive 2003/98/EC applies to documents the supply of which forms part of the public task of the public-sector bodies concerned, as defined by law or by other binding rules in the Member State in question. It should be possible for this public task to be defined for the bodies concerned either in general or from case to case.

Amendment 28 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 10 a (new) (10a) As regards the description, digitisation and presentation of cultural collections, there are numerous cooperation arrangements between libraries (including university libraries), museums, archives and private partners which involve public sector bodies granting exclusive rights of access and commercial exploitation to cooperation partners. Practice has shown that these public-private partnerships can facilitate worthwhile use of cultural collections and at the same time that they accelerate access to the cultural heritage for members of the public. Directive 2003/98/EC should therefore not preclude the conclusion of agreements granting exclusive rights. Moreover, cultural institutions should be free to choose for themselves the partners with which they wish to cooperate, subject to compliance with the principles of transparency and non-discrimination.
Amendment 32 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 11 (11) To facilitate re-use, public sector bodies should make documents available through technology-neutral machine- readable formats and together with their metadata where possible and appropriate, in a format that ensures interoperability , e.g. by processing them in a way consistent with the principles governing the compatibility and usability requirements for spatial information under Directive 2007/2/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 March 2007 establishing an Infrastructure for Spatial Information in the European Community (INSPIRE)22.

9 amendments...
Amendment 20 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 14 (14) There is considerable legal uncertainty as to how far cooperation between public authorities should be covered by public procurement rules. The relevant case-law of the Court of Justice of the European Union is interpreted divergently between Member States and even between contracting authorities. It is therefore necessary to clarify in what cases contracts concluded between contracting authorities are not subject to the application of public procurement rules. Such clarification should be guided by the principles set out in the relevant case-law of the Court of Justice. The sole fact that both parties to an agreement are themselves contracting authorities does not as such rule out the application of procurement rules. However, the application of public procurement rules should not interfere with the freedom of public authorities to decide how to organise the way they carry out their public service tasks. Contracts awarded to controlled entities or cooperation for the joint execution of the public service tasks of the participating contracting authorities should therefore be exempted from the application of the rules if the conditions set out in this directive are fulfilled. Cooperation between public service broadcasters and between public service broadcasters and their subsidiaries should be exempt from these regulations, insofar as they are subject to the specific European competition rules, in order to prevent any distortion of competition. This directive should aim to ensure that any exempted public-public cooperation does not cause a distortion of competition in relation to private economic operators. Neither should the participation of a contracting authority as a tenderer in a procedure for the award of a public contract cause any distortion of competition.

2011/07/18
ITRE
4 amendments...
Amendment 5 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 1. Welcomes the Commission’s work towards a coherent European approach to collective redress (CR); calls on the Commission to further clarify the need for EU measures vis-à-vis the principle of subsidiarity and as regards the impact in particular for SMEs and, if any measures are proven necessary, to pay particular attention to consumer and SME protection;
Amendment 9 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 a (new) 1a. Recalls that redress disputes are often related to different industrial sectors and areas of legislation; warns, therefore, against a sector-specific approach which would complicate access for consumers or SMEs to jurisdiction and lead to a fragmentation of national procedural laws; prefers a horizontal instrument to sector-specific action;
Amendment 12 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 b (new) 1b. Takes the view that the scope of any EU action on collective redress should firstly apply to a limited law area, such as in the field of competition and clearly identified consumer protection laws;
Amendment 13 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 c (new) 1c. Believes that any EU instrument on collective redress can only apply to infringements of EU law and should require the participation of plaintiffs from different Member States;

Amendment 46 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 1 1. Welcomes the European Commission Green Paper defining a Common Strategic Framework (CSF) for funding in research and innovation, and considers that the new CSF core should be the articulation of the EU research programmes and funding schemes; considers, however, that under no circumstances should such a structure lead to university-level science being placed at a disadvantage compared to other actors in the competition for increasingly scarce subsidies;
Amendment 65 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 3 3. Draws attention to the importance of maintaining convergence policies, and asks the Commission to build stairways to excellence for those MS and regions that are underrepresented in the FP by developing appropriate instruments to intensify cooperation between MS with a strong participation and those with a weaker participation, and to substantially increase human capacity building and infrastructure in the latter; takes the view that Structural Funds should be deployed to their full extent to support capacity building in the regions through dedicated activities aimed at founding centres of excellences, modernising universities, purchase of scientific equipment, local technology transfer, support to start-ups and spin-offs, and local interaction between industry and academia; believes that this will allow a stairway of excellence to be developed, leading these regions to fully participate in the Common Strategic Framework for Research and Innovation, based on quality and excellence;

Amendment 157 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 9 Amendment 210 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 15 15. Recalls that the European Research Council (ERC) has proved to be successful and a strengthening element of the European Research Area (ERA); calls on the Commission to assess the options for further improvements to the ERA’s structures and mechanisms; stresses the need to increase the proportion of the budget dedicated to grants to young researchers, as well to strengthen Marie Curie actions and initiatives, thus reinforcing mobility; calls for the implementation of the necessary measures to cope with the precarious conditions of scientific workers in the EU as a means to attract and retain researchers, bearing in mind that precarious working conditions (which are still more prevalent for women) constitute a bottleneck on the way to achieving excellence in Europe;
Amendment 219 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 15 a (new) 15a.

Recognises that particular attention should be devoted to SMEs’ involvement, in order to enable the exploitation of new ideas and opportunities in a flexible and effective way as they emerge, opening new avenues for innovation; stresses that a sector-specific definition of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) is a prerequisite for their successful participation in the CSF; recalls that heavy administrative burdens lead to a decrease in participation of SME;
Amendment 243 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 18 18. The funding scheme within this layer is covered by EU funding associated with CIP, access to credit enhancement by the EIF and specific loans from the EIB (mainly covering projects under EUR 50 million), and cooperation with the Structural Funds associated with entrepreneurship;

2012/2004(INI) Social Business Initiative - Creating a favourable climate for social enterprises, key stakeholders in the social economy and innovation
2012/05/31
ITRE
6 amendments...
Amendment 4 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 1. Welcomes the Commission’s proposal on increasing access to financing for social enterprises by establishing a regulatory framework for introducing investment instruments at EU level; urges the Commission to put forward a legislative and concrete proposal as quickly as possible taking into account the innovative and social potential of this largely unexplored enterprise; points out that the introduction of new forms of financial support will be preceded by an analysis of current instruments in order to verify their efficiency; firmly believes that the proposal to create a system of European social entrepreneurship funds or European venture capital funds constitutes a chance to develop social enterprises; points out that incentives should be given for solidarity issue bonds and takes the view that initiatives encouraging specific Business Angels to get involved in the field of social business could also be promoted;
Amendment 8 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 1 b (new) 1b. Emphasises that the concept of ‘social business’ is univocally associated with a democratic governance of an enterprise that fully ensures economic democracy, stakeholder involvement and transparency and enterprise change management in line with the principles of the European Union, the OCSE and the United Nations; calls on the European Commission to take these aspects into account when analysing and identifying best practices and replicable models, and in creating a public database of labels and certification applicable to social enterprises in Europe to improve visibility and comparison as well as in its proposals to improve the legal environment;
Amendment 11 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 2 2. Considers it necessary to create conditions under which social enterprises can gain financial independence and engage in commercial business activity; notes that, in many Member States, financial mechanisms and reduced procurements force social enterprises to focus on obtaining grants and funds from governmental institutions, rather than on increasing the quality of their services or products, which would help boost their competitiveness; emphasises the need to broaden access to debt and equity instruments, taking into account the specific way in which social enterprises operate;
Amendment 12 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 2 a (new) 2a. Considers that to increase the competitiveness of social enterprises across Europe, it is necessary to encourage the creation of social innovation clusters, which have not only a local added value; considers moreover that social enterprises, through adequate incentives, can be vital for the employment of qualified workers aged over 50 who have left the labour market;
Amendment 13 #
Draft opinion Paragraph 2 a (new) 2 a. Asks the Commission and the Member States to take necessary action in order to provide equal chances for social enterprises when participating in public procurement;
