2011/0438(COD) Public procurement
2012/12/07
IMCO
7 amendments...
Amendment 178 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 3 (3) The increasingly diverse forms of public action have made it necessary to define more clearly the notion of procurement itself. The Union rules on public procurement are not intended to cover all forms of disbursement of public money, but only those aimed at the acquisition of works, supplies or services for consideration. The notion of acquisition should be understood broadly in the sense of obtaining the benefits of the works, supplies or services in question, not necessarily requiring a transfer of ownership to the contracting authorities. Furthermore, the mere financing of an activity, which is frequently linked to the obligation to reimburse the amounts received where they are not used for the purposes intended, does not usually fall under the public procurement rules. A body which operates in normal market conditions, aims to make a profit, and bears the losses resulting from the exercise of its activity should not be considered a body governed by public law for the purposes of this Directive.

Proposal for a directive Recital 10 a (new) (10a) It is appropriate to exclude procurement made for postal services and other services than postal services as that sector has consistently been found to be subject to such competitive pressure that the procurement discipline brought about by the EU procurement rules is no longer needed.

2012/0061(COD) Posting of workers in the framework of the provision of services: enforcement of Directive 96/71/EC
2012/07/11
IMCO
49 amendments...
Amendment 135 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 4 (4) In order to prevent, avoid and combat circumvention and/or abuse of the applicable rules by companies taking improper or fraudulent advantage of the freedom to provide services enshrined in the Treaty and/or the application of Directive 96/71/EC the implementation and monitoring of the notion of posting should be improved, taking into consideration the principles of proportionality and non-discrimination.
Amendment 138 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 4 a (new) (4 a) All measures introduced by the Directive must be justified, proportionate and non-discriminatory so that they do not create administrative burdens and do not lock the potential that companies, in particular small and medium enterprises have in creating new jobs, while protecting posted workers.
Amendment 139 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 5 (5) Therefore, the constituent factual elements characterising the temporary nature inherent to the notion of posting, which implies that the employer should be genuinely established in the Member State from which the posting takes place, as well as the relationship between Directive 96/71/EC and Regulation (EC) No 593/2008 on the law applicable to contractual obligations (hereinafter the ‘Rome I Regulation’) need to be further clarified, so that a broad application of the Directive is ensured.
Amendment 143 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 8 (8)
Amendment 148 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 10 (10) Adequate and effective implementation and enforcement are key elements in protecting the rights of posted workers and ensuring the right of undertakings to provide services in another Member State, whereas poor enforcement undermines the effectiveness of the Union rules applicable in this area. Close cooperation between the Commission and the Member States is therefore essential, without neglecting the important role of labour inspectorates and the social partners in this respect.
Amendment 150 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 11 (11)
Amendment 155 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 12 (12) In order to facilitate better and more uniform application of Directive 96/71/EC, it is appropriate to provide for an electronic information exchange system to facilitate administrative cooperation and competent authorities should use the Internal Market Information System (IMI) as much as possible.
Amendment 157 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 14 a (new) (14 a) Where terms and conditions of employment are laid down in collective agreements which have been declared universally applicable, Member States should ensure that these collective agreements are officially published and accessible.

Proposal for a directive Article 3 – paragraph 1 – subparagraph 2 The assessment of these elements shall be adapted to each specific case and take account of the nature of the activities and/or period of time in which these activities were carried out by the undertaking in the Member State in which it is established.
Amendment 219 #
Proposal for a directive Article 3 – paragraph 2 a (new) 2 a. In any case, the possession of a certificate concerning social security such as form A1 is an indication that an undertaking genuinely performs its activities.
Amendment 220 #
Proposal for a directive Article 3 – paragraph 2 b (new) 2 b. The elements determining whether an undertaking in the Member State in which it is established genuinely performs activities and assessing whether a posted worker temporarily carries out his or her work in a Member State other than the one in which he or she normally works, shall be interpreted in a balanced way, in accordance with the rules concerning freedom to provide services included in the Title IV, Chapter III of the Treaty on Functioning of the European Union.
Amendment 221 #
Proposal for a directive Article 3 – paragraph 2 c (new) 2 c. All the factual elements enumerated in paragraph 1 and 2 are only indicative factors in the overall assessment to be made and may therefore never be considered in isolation. The criteria shall be adapted to each specific case and take account of the specificities of the situation. The non-meeting of one or more of the criteria does not necessary preclude the situation of posting, but should help in the evaluation of genuine posting. The criteria in paragraphs 1 and 2 are intended to assist a competent authority in cases where the competent authority has reason to believe that a worker may not qualify as posted under Directive 96/71/EC. In such cases the competent authority may apply the criteria and factual elements in paragraphs 1 and 2 which it considers are relevant to the circumstances under consideration. There is no requirement that evidence must be supplied in respect of each criterion or that each criterion must be satisfied in every instance of a posting.

Amendment 104 #
Proposal for a directive Recital 10 (10) Adequate and effective implementation and enforcement are key elements in protecting the rights of posted workers and ensuring the right of undertakings to provide services in another Member State, whereas poor enforcement undermines the effectiveness of the Union rules applicable in this area. Close cooperation between the Commission and the Member States is therefore essential, without neglecting the important role of labour inspectorates and the social partners in this respect.

Amendment 398 #

In such cases the competent authority may apply the criteria and factual elements in paragraphs 1 and 2 which it considers are relevant to the circumstances under consideration. There is no requirement that evidence must be supplied in respect of each criteria or that each criteria must be satisfied in every instance of a posting.
