Jekk l-ENP ma tistax tikkontribwixxi sabiex tindirizza l-kunflitti fir-reġjun, tkun falliet f'waħda mill-għanijiet prinċipali. Kunflitti bħal dawn jistgħu jheddu s-sigurtà proprja ta'l-Unjoni, jekk hux permezz tar-riskju ta'żieda jew eżodu ta'refuġjati, jew ‘interruzzjoni tal-provvisti enerġetiċi jew il-qtugħ tal-kollegamenti tal-kummerċ u tat-trasport, jew permezz tat-tixrid tat-terroriżmu jew il-kriminalità organizzata inkluż it-traffikar tal-persuni, id-drogi u l-armi.

If the ENP cannot contribute to addressing conflicts in the region, it will have failed in one of its key purposes. Such conflicts can threaten the Union’s own security, whether through the risk of escalation or of an exodus of refugees, or by interrupting energy supplies or cutting trade and transport links, or through the spread of terrorism and organised crime including trafficking in human beings, drugs and arms. The Union makes a very large contribution to assisting refugees and displaced persons – how much better if these resources could be used to promote sustained development. There is also a need, in the interest of all concerned, to engage Russia in closer cooperation in preventing conflicts and enhancing stability across Eastern Europe and the Southern Caucasus.

120 -Kuntest ġenerali Numru importanti ta'direttivi Komunitarji fil-qasam tal-ħarsien tas-saħħa u tas-sigurtà tal-ħaddiema fuq ix-xogħol jipprevedu l-obbligu għall-Istati Membri li jippreżentaw rapport lill-Kummissjoni, f’intervalli regolari, dwar l-implimentazzjoni prattika tad-dispożizzjonijiet stipulati mid-Direttivi, fejn għandhom jindikaw l-opinjonijiet ta'l-imsieħba soċjali. Dawn id-dispożizzjonijiet jipprevedu perjodiċità differenti għas-sottomissjoni lill-Kummissjoni tar-rapporti nazzjonali, jew kull ħames snin (id-Direttivi 89/391/KEE, 89/654/KEE, 89/655/KEE, 89/656/KEE, 91/383/KEE, 92/29/KEE, 92/58/KEE, 92/85/KEE, 92/91/KEE, 92/104/KEE, 94/33/KE, 98/24/KE, 99/92/KE, 02/44/KE, 03/10/KE u 04/40/KE) jew kull erba'snin (id-Direttivi 90/269/KEE, 90/270/KEE, 92/57/KEE u 93/103/KEE). Barra minn hekk, huwa stipulat f’ċerti Direttivi li l-Kummissjoni tittrażmetti perjodikament lill-Parlament Ewropew, lill-Kunsill, lill-Kumitat Ekonomiku u Soċjali u lill-Kumitat tar-Reġjuni rapport dwar l-implimentazzjoni tad-Direttivi kkonċernati filwaqt li jiġu kkunsidrati, fost ħwejjeġ oħra, ir-rapporti nazzjonali. L-esperjenza miksuba matul is-snin ta'applikazzjoni ta'dawn id-dispożizzjonijiet turi mhux biss varjazzjonijiet importanti fil-perjodiċità ta'trażmissjoni tar-rapporti nazzjonali lill-Kummissjoni iżda wkoll rabtiet amministrattivi fejn l-eżerċizzju jsir aktar kumpless u aktar burokratiku. It-tfassil ta'rapporti regolari dwar l-implimentazzjoni prattika tad-Direttivi fil-qasam tal-ħarsien tas-saħħa u tas-sigurtà tal-ħaddiema tikkostitwixxi strument importanti biex jinħoloq bilanċ li jippermetti li tiġi valuatata l-effikaċja tal-miżuri adottati u l-impatt tagħhom fuq il-kwalità tas-saħħa u tas-sigurtà tal-ħaddiema fl-Unjoni Ewropea. Fil-Komunikazzjoni “Addattament għat-tibdil fix-xogħol u fis-soċjetà: strateġija Komunitarja ġdida ta'saħħa u ta'sigurtà 2002-2006”[25], il-Kummissjoni tindika, fil-Kapitolu 3.3.1. tagħha “Addattament tal-qafas ġuridiku u istituzzjonali”, li “l-eżistenza ta'qafas leġiżlattiv Komunitarju sħiħ, koerenti u solidu, huwa għodda indispensabbli fil-qasam tas-saħħa u tas-sigurtà, fejn normi u prinċipji huma meħtieġa għall-prevenzjoni ta'perikli u għall-ħarsien tal-ħaddiema”, u li hija “fi ħsiebha ssegwi f’dan il-qasam mixja ekwilibrata, fejn tistrieħ fuq l-esperjenza miksuba fl-implimentazzjoni tat-testi, skond diversi assi paralleli”, fost affarijiet oħra s-simplifikazzjoni u r-razzjonalizzazzjoni tal-qafas ġuridiku li jeżisti notevolment “bil-preparazzjoni ta'rapport uniku ta'implimentazzjoni, minflok rapporti speċifiċi kif stipulati mid-Direttivi differenti. Il-Kunsill, fir-Riżoluzzjoni tiegħu[26] dwar il-Komunikazzjoni tal-Kummissjoni dwar l-istrateġija l-ġdida ta'saħħa u sigurtà fuq ix-xogħol 2002-2006, jinnota l-intenzjoni tal-Kummissjoni li tissottometti proposti leġiżlattivi biex tirrazzjonalizza r-rapporti dwar l-implimentazzjoni tad-Direttivi Komunitarji u jistieden lill-Kummissjoni biex tippreżentalu, fil-qafas tad-dritt ta'inizjattiva tagħha, il-proposti meħtieġa biex jinkisbu l-għanijiet stabbiliti fl-istrateġija l-ġdida, b’mod partikulari, għall-effetti tar-razzjonalizzazzjoni tal-qafas ġuridiku eżistenti. Min-naħa tiegħu, il-Parlament Ewropew, fir-Riżoluzzjoni tiegħu[27] dwar l-istess Komunikazzjoni tal-Kummissjoni, jikkunsidra li “l-proposta għall-istandardizzazzjoni u s-simplifikazzjoni (minflok it-tneħħija ta'regolamenti) tal-leġiżlazzjoni Komunitarja preżenti tmur sew mal-proġett vast maħsub biex jissimplifika u jtejjeb l-Acquis Komunitarju b’mod ġenerali hekk kif jidher fil-Komunikazzjoni tal-Kummissjoni intitolata “Simplifikazzjoni u titjib ta'l-ambjent regolatorju”[28], kif ukoll fil-pjan ta'azzjoni tiegħu[29], u “jitlob li s-saħħa u s-sigurtà, sakemm huwa qasam tal-liġi Komunitarja stabbilit u ċċentrat fuq iċ-ċittadini, jikkostitwixxi settur prijoritarju tal-programm ta'simplifikazzjoni leġiżlattiva li jrid jiġi definit b’mod konġunt mill-Kunsill, il-Kummissjoni u l-Parlament.” Il-Parlament jirrikonoxxi f’dan ir-rigward li l-enfażi qiegħda fuq ir-reviżjoni ta'l-applikazzjoni tal-leġiżlazzjoni Komunitarja attwali, u tal-proposta relatata ma'rapport uniku ta'implimentazzjoni li jkopri d-Direttivi msemmija kollha. Aktar reċentement, fir-rapport tiegħu dwar il-promozzjoni tas-saħħa u tas-sigurtà fuq il-post tax-xogħol, il-Parlament Ewropew sostna l-proposta tal-Kummissjoni li jkun ippreżentat rapport uniku li jkopri l-implimentazzjoni prattika tad-Direttivi kollha fil-25 Stat Membru. Fil-kuntest ta'l-inizjattiva għat-titjib tal-leġiżlazzjoni intitolata “Tfassil aħjar ta'liġijiet” ta'Ġunju 2002, il-Kummissjoni pproponiet, fi Frar 2003, strateġija maħsuba biex “taġġorna u tissimplifika l-Acquis Komunitarju”, bil-għan li tiggarantixxi organu ta'liġi Komunitarja magħmula ċara, li tinftiehem, aġġornata u faċli biex tintuża fl-interess taċ-ċittadini, ta'l-operaturi ekonomiċi, ta'l-amministrazzjonijiet pubbliċi, eċċ. Biex tikseb dan il-għan, il-Kummissjoni tintervjeni fuq sitt livelli, jiġifieri s-simplifikazzjoni, il-konsolidazzjoni, il-kodifikazzjoni, ir-revoka, il-preskrizzjoni u l-organizzazzjoni u l-preżentazzjoni ta'l-Acquis. Fuq il-bażi ta'l-indikaturi proposti fil-Komunikazzjoni tagħha ta'Frar 2003, il-Kummissjoni identifikat 19-il settur strateġiku li jista'jkun suġġett għal simplifikazzjoni, fosthom is-sigurtà u s-saħħa fuq ix-xogħol. Il-kwistjoni ġiet ukoll identifikata fil-konklużjonijiet adottati mill-Kunsill “Kompetittività”, waqt is-sessjoni tiegħu tal-25 u s-26 ta'Novembru 2004, bħala waħda mill-prijoritajiet tiegħu għas-simplifikazzjoni tal-leġiżlazzjoni Komunitarja. Fuq analiżi, jidher li l-informazzjoni stipulata f’ċerti direttivi dwar is-saħħa u s-sigurtà jimponu piż sproporzjonat fuq l-Istati Membri u bħala soluzzjoni possibbli ġie indikat it-tnaqqis għall-minimu ta'l-informazzjoni mitluba, l-armonizzazzjoni tagħha u l-komunikazzjoni tagħha f’forma ta'rapport sħiħ għall-miżuri kollha. -

120 -General context A considerable number of Community Directives concerning protection of the health and safety of workers at work require the Member States to report to the Commission at regular intervals on the practical implementation of the Directives, indicating the social partners'opinions. The Directives in question provide for different intervals for the submission to the Commission of the national reports: either every five years (Directives 89/391/EEC, 89/654/EEC, 89/655/EEC, 89/656/EEC, 91/383/EEC, 92/29/EEC, 92/58/EEC, 92/85/EEC, 92/91/EEC, 92/104/EEC, 94/33/EC, 98/24/EC, 99/92/EC, 2002/44/EC, 2003/10/EC and 2004/40/EC) or every four years (Directives 90/269/EEC, 90/270/EEC, 92/57/EEC and 93/103/EEC). Besides, the Commission must submit periodically to the European Parliament, the Council, the Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions a report on the implementation of the Directives concerned, taking into account, inter alia, the national reports. Experience gained during years of implementing these provisions highlights not only considerable variations in the intervals for the submission to the Commission of national reports, but also administrative constraints which complicate and bureaucratise the exercise. The preparation of regular reports on the practical implementation of the Directives concerning protection of the health and safety of workers is an important tool in taking stock of the efficiency of the measures adopted and their impact on the quality of the health and safety of workers in the European Union. In its communication "Adapting to change in work and society: a new Community strategy for health and safety"[25], the Commission indicates in chapter 3.3.1. "Adapting the legal and institutional framework", that the existence of a full, coherent and solid Community legislative framework is an essential tool in terms of health and safety, where there is a need for standards and principles for preventing risks and protecting workers, and it states its intention to pursue a balanced approach in this field, based on experience gained in the implementation of legislative texts, along a number of parallel routes, inter alia via simplification and rationalisation of the existing legal framework, notably by producing a single report on their implementation, rather than the specific reports required under the various directives. In its resolution[26] on the Commission's communication on a new Community strategy on health and safety at work 2002-2006, the Council notes that the Commission intends to present legislative proposals with a view to rationalising reports on the implementation of the Community directives and calls on the Commission to submit to it, by way of the Commission's right of initiative, any proposal needed for achieving the objectives set out in the new strategy, in particular for the purpose of rationalisation of the existing legal framework. For its part, the European Parliament, in its resolution[27] on the Commission's communication on a new Community strategy on health and safety at work 2002-2006, considers that the proposal to codify and simplify (rather than de-regulate) the existing Community legislation in this area sits well with the wider project to simplify and improve the acquis communautaire in general as reflected in the Commission's communication "Simplifying and improving the regulatory environment"[28] and in its action plan[29], and calls for health and safety, as an established and citizen-centred area of Community law, to be a priority sector in the programme of legislative simplification to be jointly defined by the Council, Commission and Parliament. Parliament recognises in this connection that the focus is on revising the application of existing Community law and on the proposal relating to a single implementation report covering all the directives concerned. More recently, in its report on improving health and safety in the workplace, the European Parliament supported the Commission's proposal to submit a single report covering the practical implementation of all the directives in the 25 Member States. In the context of the "Better lawmaking" initiative of June 2002, the Commission proposed in February 2003 a policy for "updating and simplifying the Community acquis", aimed at securing a clear, understandable, up-to-date and user-friendly body of secondary Community legislation for the benefit of citizens, economic operators, public administrations etc. To achieve this goal, the Commission intervenes at six levels, namely simplification, consolidation, codification, repeal, obsolescence, and organisation and presentation of the acquis. Based on the indicators proposed in its February 2003 communication, the Commission immediately identified 19 policy sectors that could be simplified, including health and safety at work. The problem was also pinpointed in the conclusions adopted by the Competitiveness Council at its meeting of 25 and 26 November 2004 as one of the Council's priorities for simplifying Community law. An analysis of the problem shows that the information prescribed in certain health and safety directives imposes a disproportionate burden on the Member States, and one possible solution proposed is to minimise the amount of information required, and to ensure its harmonisation and communication every six years in the form of an overall report on all measures. -

Strateġija b’saħħitha, integrata u globali bħal din b’orjentazzjoni Komunitarja teħtieġ livell għoli ta'kompetenza u ta'għarfien espert mill-awtoritajiet li jkunu qed jagħmlu l-kontrolli u timponi livelli għoljin fuq l-uffiċjali tal-kontroll fl-Istati Membri sabiex jiġi żgurat li l-kontrolli uffiċjali jkunu effiċjenti, oġġettivi u xierqa. L-impjegati ta'l-awtoritajiet li jagħmlu l-kontrolli jeħtieġ li jkollhom għarfien vast ta'perikli differenti (kimiċi, bijoloġiċi u fiżiċi) li jistgħu jinqalgħu tul il-katina alimentari u dik ta'l-għalf. Huma għandhom ukoll jifhmu l-mekkaniżmi tas-suq li fih l-ikel u l-ingredjenti tiegħu jistgħu jinkisbu minn ħafna sorsi differenti. Fl-istess ħin, jeħtieġ li jiġu informati dwar problemi speċifiċi ħafna li huma inerenti għall-produzzjoni, l-ipproċessar, il-konservazzjoni u l-metodi tad-distribuzzjoni speċifiċi. Huma għandhom ikunu kapaċi jidentifikaw in-nuqqas ta'konformità mar-rekwiżiti tas-sikurezza għall-għalf u għall-ikel, mar-rekwiżiti għas-saħħa u l-benessri ta'l-annimali u mar-rekwiżiti għas-saħħa tal-pjanti. Huma għandhom ukoll ikunu kapaċi jiskopru xi prattika qarrieqa. Għalhekk, il-kontroll tal-produzzjoni u tat-tpoġġija fis-suq ta'l-għalf u ta'l-ikel kif ukoll dak tal-produzzjoni u l-kummerċ ta'l-annimali u l-pjanti jeħtieġ strateġija multi-dixxiplinarja.

Such a strong Community oriented integrated and global approach requires a high level of competence and expertise of the controlling authorities, and imposes high standards on control officials in the Member States so as to ensure that official controls are efficient, objective and adequate. Staff of controlling authorities need to have a broad knowledge of different hazards (chemical, biological and physical) that can occur along the feed and food chain. They must also understand the mechanisms of the market in which food and its ingredients can be obtained from many different sources. At the same time, they need to be informed about very specific problems that are inherent to specific production, processing, conservation and distribution methods. They must be able to identify non-compliance with feed and food safety requirements, with animal health and animal welfare requirements, and with plant health requirements. They must also be able to detect fraudulent practices. Control of feed and food production and marketing, and of animal and plant production and trade, therefore requires a multidisciplinary approach.

-It-teknoloġija u l-ftuħ tas-suq kemm fl-Ewropa kif ukoll fid-dinja għenu biex jitwettaq dan it-tkabbir rapidu. Iktar kummerċ, li ġab miegħu spejjeż irħas ta'komunikazzjoni u ta'transport, għamilha aktar faċli għan-negozji li jfittxu servizzi u prodotti minn partijiet oħra tad-dinja – u fetaħ opportunitajiet għall-esportaturi hawnhekk, iżda ġab ukoll pressjonijiet kompetittivi ġodda. Ir-rivoluzzjoni tal-Broadband, (kif ukoll ħiliet ta'lingwa u teknoloġija f’postijiet bħall-Indja), ippermettew li tiġi nnegozjata firxa dejjem usa'ta'servizzi – li tinkoraġġixxi għoti ta'għadd ta'attivitajiet ta'servizz 'il barra b'kuntratt mill-intrapriżi ta'l-UE, iżda tiġbed ukoll kummerċ u investiment addizzjonali fl-UE. [ Id-differenzi qawwijin fl-ispejjeż tax-xogħol huma wieħed mill-fatturi fis-suċċess ta'parteċipanti ekonomiċi ġodda. Dawn id-differenzi kbar jirriflettu biċ-ċar livelli ta'xogħol ta'produttività vast ħafna. Dan ifisser li l-Ewropa ma tistax tikkompeti biss fuq l-ispejjeż – iżda aktar għandha żżid il-produttività u l-kwalità billi tuża l-kapaċitajiet teknoloġiċi tagħha u l-abbiltà li tikkompeti fi prodotti u servizzi b’kontenut ogħla ta'għarfien.

-Technology and market opening both in Europe and globally has helped fuel this rapid growth. More trade, drawing on cheaper communication costs and transport, has made it easier for businesses to source goods and services from other parts of the world – opening opportunities for exporters here, but also presenting new competitive pressures. The broadband revolution, (as well as language and technology skills in places like India), have allowed an increasingly wide range of services to be traded – encouraging outsourcing of a range of service activities by EU businesses, but also attracting additional trade and investment into the EU.-Marked differences in labour costs are one factor in the success of new economic players. Such stark differences reflect to a large extent very diverse labour productivity levels. This means that Europe cannot expect to compete on costs alone – but rather must increase productivity and quality drawing on its technological strengths and ability to compete in products and services with a higher knowledge content.

(49) Waqt li fis-suq ta'l-USA aktar minn għaxar produtturi ta'l-urea qed joperaw meta mqabbel ma mill-inqas ħames produtturi fl-Ukrajna, hemm produttur wieħed biss fil-Litwanja. Minkejja l-fatt li dazji kontra d-dumping jeżistu fl-USA fuq importi ta'l-urea minn pajjiżi ta'dik li qabel kienet l-Unjoni Sovjetika, kien hemm importi sostanzjali (aktar minn miljun tunnellata mettrika) ta'urea minn numru ta'pajjiżi terzi oħra. Għalkemm aktar investigazzjoni kixfet li ma hemm l-ebda dazji ta'importazzjoni applikabbli fil-Litwanja għal importi ta'l-urea, dawk l-importi jibqgħu madankollu f'livell baxx ħafna. L-USA għandha suq ta'l-urea vast (aktar minn 10 miljun tunnellata mettrika kull sena), waqt li s-suq ta'l-urea tal-Litwanja prattikament ma jeżistix. Għalhekk, bejgħ ta'l-urea matul il-perjodu ta'investigazzjoni ("PI") fuq is-suq tal-Litwanja kien minimu u, skond it-tagħrif provvdut mill-produttur tal-Litwanja, ma sarx fil-kors ordinarju ta'kummerċ. Ġie għalhekk konkluż li s-suq ta'l-US għall-urea huwa kompetittiv ħafna, b'kuntrast mas-suq tal-Litwanja. Finalment, u kuntrarju għall-Litwanja, bejgħ domestiku fl-USA huwa rappreżentattiv meta mqabbel ma'esportazzjonijiet tal-Belarus u l-Ukrajna lejn il-Komunità.

(49) While on the USA market more than ten producers of urea are operating compared to at least five producers in Ukraine, there is only one producer in Lithuania. Despite the fact that anti-dumping duties exist in the USA on imports of urea from former Soviet Union countries, there were substantial imports (more than 1 million tons) of urea from a number of other third countries. Although the further investigation revealed that there are no import duties applicable in Lithuania to imports of urea, those imports remain nevertheless at a very low level. The USA has a vast urea market (more than 10 million tons per year), whereas the Lithuanian urea market is practically non-existing. Thus, sales of urea during the investigation period ("IP") on the Lithuanian market were minimal and, according to the information provided by the Lithuanian producer, not made in the ordinary course of trade. It has thus been concluded that the US-market for urea is highly competitive, in contrast with the Lithuanian market. Finally, and contrary to Lithuania, domestic sales in USA are representative when compared to Belarus and Ukrainian exports to the Community.
